[00:00:25] It's episode 623 of the Pittsburgh Nerd Podcast I'm Sean And I'm Ian and this is the only podcast that says Do you have any idea how hard it is for male ducks to lay eggs? Hmm Nice Yeah That was, I watched last night The Day the Earth Blew Up Okay

[00:00:53] That Looney Tunes movie you saw not too long ago Never saw the cat up there Oh yeah, Sabine's up How did she get up there? She jumps over here, she jumps up Oh wow, that scared me Yeah Anyway Did you like it? I did, yeah I thought it was good Yeah, it was very good I loved the animation It was great I thought it was extraordinarily well animated It looked beautiful It did It was a 2D animation

[00:01:23] Yeah And it was really, really well done Yeah And Like you're right It had kind of like that That um Fletcher kind of feel to it With the way like the light Like off the like The The one scientist glasses The way the light Yeah Yeah Yeah Like it looked phenomenal Yeah I thought it was I thought Artistically it was amazing Yeah And it had a lot of retro throw to Early Daffy and Porky Yeah

[00:01:52] Early, early Yeah Before Clampett Like Yeah Before Road Runner Yeah You know, like the early days I thought it was really good I was pretty impressed Yeah I was too I thought it looked beautiful The story was fun Yeah You know, I mean It's a Looney Tunes movie Yeah That's I mean That's what you're gonna get Yeah So I thought Farmer Jim was hysterical Hysterical

[00:02:21] But didn't it It was It was a lot like It was like a cross between Ren and Stimpy And Spongebob Yeah In a certain sense Yeah Like with Farmer Jim Like when he was leaving them Like it was supposed to be his death Yeah Like Like this Just this figure bouncing up and down As he walked Great Hysterical And the art animation on him Was a lot different than the rest of the Yeah The whole thing Yeah It was like that Very Ren and Stimpy-esque Yeah I thought it was great

[00:02:51] Oh yeah And I did I thought it was I thought it was outstanding I I just had a good time watching it Yeah I laughed all the way through it And the The humor was very It's like Okay I can see like you watching us with a kid The kid But like There was some humor where I was like Oh Okay Adult Yeah It was very Yeah It was really good It was It was very well done I'm glad Catch-Up Entertainment rescued that Yeah

[00:03:21] I can't wait to see what they do with Coyote vs. Acme Yeah Even though that's not animated That's like Animated in live action But Yeah You know I would be all for more of like this This type of stuff Yeah Like I I feel like Warner Bros. made a massive mistake By letting that go Yeah Um And I feel like

[00:03:51] You know That might be the same thing with You know Coyote vs. Acme Yeah I mean I know that it had I know Let's give you the sniffings I know that it had I know it got good reviews You know I mean For what it was You know It got excellent reviews As a cartoon Yeah Exactly Um So yeah I thought it was pretty good I liked it a lot I did too It was a good break in the cartoon Away from anime Away

[00:04:20] Not anime I guess anime Away from You know Castlevania Yeah It was a good break away From that It was also a good break away From like Pixar And like that computer Correct Animated Which I don't have a problem with Especially when it's done well Like you look at like Toy Story Or Yeah Stuff like that Like That's some beautiful Stuff Even like Um Like the How You Train Your Dragon Yeah Like those look phenomenal Like So I don't I'm not bashing

[00:04:49] Computer animated Movies Right But It is a break It looks fantastic Because it has that Throwback feel to it In a lot of ways Yeah Of how it's animated And the way the animation feels And It is just a 2D hand drawn look I'm I'm sure it's not on a computer But it still has that 2D Hand drawn look Right And And just Um The art itself Is just real rich

[00:05:19] Yeah You know Yeah It was great Anyway So It was funny Yeah So I watched that And uh Car Trek 11 this week Which I'm sure nobody cares about But Car Trek's on It's on YouTube Uh-huh And it's these three guys That I I watch Um Ed Bullion Who Who runs VinWiki Uh-huh Uh Freddie Hernandez Who Who Uh Runs Tavarish That

[00:06:18] And then When they They got fired Or they left The show They went to Amazon And did a show Called The Grand Tour For a number Of more years And this is kind of like Their version of that Okay And um It's much better Than the American version Of Top Gear It ever was Okay Um It's It's It's fun Like I mean If you're not Into that Like if If you're somebody Who has watched Like the Grand Tour

[00:06:47] Or Or Top Gear But you might Enjoy this Cause like The whole concept Of the show Is like They get a challenge Like this This This round It was Buy a car For the price Of a cancelled Airline ticket Okay And drive To the nearest Beach From Kansas Which ended up Being Galveston Texas Okay So it was The 700 mile road trip That they had to take And they ended up Buying like You know These

[00:07:16] Very cheap cars They were still You know One was an Audi TT One was a Mercedes CLK 255 Or something And then The third guy Had a Toyota Supra From 1990 Okay You know And it was It was a nice car In 1990 Yeah It was a nice car In 1990 So it was like You know And then You know Antics take place Along the way It's not just like You know Them driving For an hour and a half Right Right

[00:07:46] There's There's challenges They have to participate In You know It's interesting I enjoy it It was the first one They had done In a couple of years So that was That was cool To have it Kind of come back And If you're into Car stuff You'll enjoy the show If you're not Into car stuff I can't recommend it But if you do If you're somebody Who Like I enjoy Watching all three Of their YouTube channels Right So

[00:08:16] Obviously I'm going to enjoy Something like this Okay So That was I got a kick out of that Cool Yeah Well I watched I went to the movies Okay But I won't We'll probably discuss This a little bit So I won't do that first But I did watch A movie That The premise was good Um But Um

[00:08:47] Oh Bringing it up Now Let's see Where were you He was digging On his phone Yeah The sound of silence I had it And then I But I opened up The wrong The movie was called Aftermath Okay I think I think it was on I don't know

[00:09:17] If it was on Prime I don't know What it was But it was like There used to be a show Called Zack and Cody Kid show Yeah Yeah Yeah So this was one of them I think Cody Okay Anyway The premise was New World Order Whatever Disgruntal Marines Or Rangers Whatever And they

[00:09:46] Went on the Tobin Bridge And they knocked out Part of the Tobin Bridge Oh I watched this I talked about it Did you? Yeah I don't remember Yeah Did we talk about it? I did talk about it Yeah Yeah Acting was terrible It was Oh Acting was so bad Just so I mean It's hard for me to relate If I haven't seen the movie Do you understand what I mean? Yeah You can tell me about it But I If I haven't seen it I thought the movie Was just okay

[00:10:16] But there was like A lot of like Oh there was a lot Of bad acting Yeah I mean tons Especially the relationship Between him and his sister Yeah Well like It was terrible The thing I hated About this movie Was the villain The main Like the leader Like he kept going On these monologues That were so fucking bad They were But the fight scenes Were great Oh yeah The action was very good And like The way they set up The action stuff Made sense They had a sniper up top

[00:10:45] To keep an eye on the cops And the bridge Yeah Like what they were doing Made a lot of sense Right But the acting was so bad I mean I didn't have Any problems with the action Except one part When he need him Twice In the side of the head Yeah When he had him Next to the thing Yeah He should have been clocked Yeah You know At least he could Maybe he just had a hard head I was like That was a clock In the temple Yeah Twice Yeah He should have been

[00:11:15] Completely Yeah Knocked out So Yeah So I watched that And It was just terrible I mean As soon as they opened Their mouths It was terrible Yeah But the whole thing Was good Like the action sequence What they were doing The bombs under the bridge It was phenomenal Yeah Their cause I get it Yeah Even the ending Was bad Oh That ending Was like

[00:11:44] It's like You knew this chick For like Two hours And you're showing up When she's getting out of jail Yeah Like I was like Oh Like I get it Like She's hot But She's a straight out killer Yeah She's killed a lot Yeah You know But So anyway Yeah There was that I did watch that Yeah I remember Watching that Like

[00:12:15] I talked about it A little bit But It was just like I just remember Like It was like Whew Like I enjoyed it Like at the end I was like Well It wasn't that bad But man I This was not well acted Oh It was horrible acting Yeah And I liked the villain I did I thought his Monologue speeches were Oh I thought they were horrible Like I agreed Yeah But When he was really angry I liked Yeah I liked how he was bossing And

[00:12:44] I get that part of it Yeah I understand But I really liked that sniper aspect Yeah Like he had perfect view Of the bridge And the cops Yeah You know what I mean Like he was Constant watchdog Yeah But I just There were parts of it I just couldn't I couldn't stomach Yeah It was just too much Yeah So there was that

[00:13:12] And we watched something else too And I can't even remember But anytime we ever pick a movie on Anything It's just been terrible Yeah It's just been awful Like that Cillian Murphy movie I watched That was just Yeah Give me a break So anyway I went to go see Mission Impossible Ooh I haven't seen it yet Oh you haven't No I haven't I thought you did No I'm so bummed out I haven't seen it I just haven't had an opportunity

[00:13:42] Like every time I've had an opportunity It's like Nah You know Well I can't talk about it Talk about it No talk about it Like don't spoil it But I want to know Like how I can't How is it Impossible I don't think it was as good as the last one Okay Yeah Do you make sense Yeah that makes sense Um Cause that's That's hard Like I'm sorry I think that movie's hard to live up to

[00:14:11] Like that movie was so fucking good You know like I couldn't imagine this The part two exceeding it So like You know Yeah I mean There are some I think you'll enjoy the movie Yeah I had some problems With certain parts of it Right And Tom Cruise Is looking old Is it It's starting to catch up to him finally

[00:14:41] Yeah Like Not to be strange or anything But Not when he takes his shirt off Yeah I mean I know it sounds weird to say No It's in his face It's not his body I mean he keeps himself In prime physical Specimen Yeah I mean he has to At his age Yeah You know what I mean Yeah He's 60 something And he's still like It's not like Harrison Ford Taking his shirt off Yeah You know what I'm saying

[00:15:11] Yeah But Harrison Ford's like 80 years old Yeah But You know He's built still It's just There's certain parts Especially There's a lot of flashback in this Right Yeah Cause it's going through the It's It's explaining the story Right From beginning to Right Do you know what I mean Cause it's all connected Right Right And So they show a lot of Old shots of Cruz When he comes down on this

[00:15:40] On the tightrope Yeah Do you know what I mean Yeah Not tightrope But when he comes down Through the ceiling That scene in the first Mission Impossible When he's stealing the shit Yeah Yes Exactly Yeah You see that young face In the fucking military cut Yeah You know there's parts in this Where I thought he was wearing a wig Yeah I mean And there was also a part Well and I know And I know Cruz does Like A lot of the stunts and stuff Are like Yeah Yeah I mean like He's all out Right

[00:16:10] Like look at Top Gun Yeah You know that was real flying Yeah Not him real flying No Yeah but he was in the Like Yeah like they had set it up Where he was in the jet Yeah he was in the jet So there was this part That's the only thing I'm gonna say There was There was this part in the airplane They were At one point he was on like a Twin engine Yeah Snoopy plane You know Yeah Yeah the biplane Yeah biplane Yeah

[00:16:40] Like I mean you've seen it in the ads And stuff where he's like Hanging off the wing and shit Correct Yeah Well there's a part where his And it's really I think he's really there Unless they just put this Massive wind machine on Yeah There's this part where he looked like What's his name from Dumb and Dumber I mean his hair was completely Flattened down Yeah You know That's not what I had a problem with But I had some issues Um The whole movie Kept going And was really good

[00:17:09] I could see where they could have Cut parts out Right At the end of the movie I said well they could have cut At least 20 minutes out of this Right Yeah Because they spent way too long At this part of this movie Right I'm like It was just way too long Right And there was a couple parts Where it was like They could have cut this to like Two hours 15 minutes Right Um But The whole movie was great Until this Until like the last 15 minutes

[00:17:38] Not that it was bad Yeah But it was like Hmm Yeah I just I couldn't believe it Good I was sitting next to Arnold And when this scene came on Have you ever seen that kid Have you ever seen that Uh TikTok video Where that That kid's in the front seat Eating cereal with his dad And his dad just grabs

[00:18:08] Have you ever seen that No It's funny shit It's like He started Like some rap song comes on Yeah And he's like Fuck this And the kid's like Eating this cereal And then all of a sudden He gets like really He gets really into it And he starts shaking the kid And the fucking cereal's going over Cause it's to the song right And the kid's like You know He's like 10 Yeah It's funny I mean it's meant to be like that Yeah I did that to on in the theater Yeah And we just started laughing I laughed so much That I almost missed

[00:18:37] The end of the movie Right Like we could not stop laughing Yeah It was unbelievable And we were like I guess I I needed to laugh Right I guess Um But you know I sat down Three hour movie You know With all the fucking commercials Yeah And all that stuff But a little over three hours But Uh I didn't get up Yeah I was Focused in on the film Right

[00:19:06] Um And they bring back some things From the older movies That you'll appreciate Yeah Yeah Yeah I liked it There was also some throwbacks To Top Gun Yeah Which I kind of appreciated Right I don't think the normal Audience member Would catch it Right But I Right You know And I'll tell you one of them Can I tell you one of them Sure At one point he gets onto An aircraft carrier Yeah I'm like oh shit Here it is

[00:19:36] Yeah Like as soon as I saw That they were going To an aircraft carrier I'm like Yeah Are they gonna do some You know Yeah Do something It's a little And I And I didn't read the hat Yeah But you know how They always have hats For that Carry Carry Yeah All of a sudden Tom Cruise shows up in a hat Dark sunglasses Nice I was like Damn that's a throwback Right there Yeah And then when they get onto The aircraft carrier There was like this side scene

[00:20:05] Not side scene But it was like They get onto the aircraft carrier And all of a sudden There's And it didn't really It kind of fit Because it kind of lets you know They were on the aircraft carrier Yeah But it shows the jets coming in Yeah And landing Like it was right out of Top Gun Yeah You know I was like dude That's badass I love this part of it I'm like I'm all into it Especially when he showed up With the sunglasses and the hat I was like Oh God Yeah Because I I mean I was a Top Gun fan I really liked the second Top Gun Right

[00:20:39] So those scenes Oh and I'll tell you this You can read this from Cast of Credits Jester's in it too Okay yeah Yeah Yeah Jester was the guy That was in Top Gun The old guy Yeah I think I'm right on that His name was Jester The old black guy Yeah Or no no no no Hollywood Nah Was his name Hollywood? The old guy With the gray hair He brought Maverick in Oh Oh no Okay no

[00:21:09] I can't remember what that guy's name was He brought Maverick in Yeah Not him But he was with Val Kilmer Sort of And when There was the dickhead What's his name In charge of the school One under Val Kilmer What's his name? John Hamm? John Hamm Okay the second one John Hamm John Hamm And then there was the other guy Okay yeah I can't remember what that guy was You know what he was talking about? I know who you're talking about Yeah He's in this Okay Yeah Okay Not on the Air Force carrier

[00:21:38] Yeah Aircraft carrier Yeah But he was in this movie So he had a couple people In there from Yeah But All in all I thought it was a good film I do not think it was as good As the first one And there was just some parts In this Man Cruz looked really old I don't Not that it distracted It took away from the film I understand his age and everything Yeah But he just I don't know It like

[00:22:07] It caught up to him In the last five years I wonder if it's deliberate As well though Like Like You're reaching a point Like I mean Let's face facts The first Mission Impossible movie Came out in 1999 Yeah You know 26 years ago Right So We're talking about And You know Ethan Hunt Who You know Is part of this time Finally catching up with him Yeah

[00:22:37] Because you're talking about his past Like everything That Has led to this point With Ethan Hunt Yeah You know And The thing I'm curious about Like the thing that you hated About the ending That made you laugh Very Like Like If Not so long ago We talked about How we kind of let Mission Impossible Get away with a little bit of goofiness Like with gadgets and stuff For some We don't We didn't let Bond get away with it anymore Like

[00:23:06] With Bond It was like You know It stopped with the gadgets It stopped with The goofiness And that's how How you get to The The current Bond franchise Right The past five movies Yeah Got away from the gadgets And stuff like that Is it like A level of goofiness Where we're just like No Even we can't let Mission Impossible Get away with this No No It has nothing to do with the It had nothing to do With

[00:23:36] Um Any of that Okay The reason we laughed Was not because of the Not because of the You know Secret stuff You know Whatever You know Yeah And have anything to do with I thought they've kept that Really in check In this Yeah Yes he has some stuff And he is out of this world The face mask And stuff like that Right But that's what You kind of expect From Mission Impossible Right

[00:24:05] Bond had You know Missiles coming out Of his hubcaps And shit Like Sometimes it almost Looked like The invisible car Yes Or you know The grease Or the blades Come out Yeah You know Mission Impossible Estate It's all like Tech that hasn't been made yet Yeah Usually You know what I mean Yeah Could they 3D print a face mask Probably They can right now Yeah

[00:24:35] In a certain sense Right Because they can 3D print Some amazing shit Now Right But I mean That's just the next level Right Right And They may have done it already Right And we don't even know Had nothing to do with the tech Or anything like that Okay The reason we laughed It had nothing to do with that Um It was so Like It was just funny And it was like Disappointing at the same time It was It was very strange We were like Yeah What the fuck

[00:25:06] And um But that was it I mean like As far as The entire movie Yeah It's fantastic I liked it Right But it was just that part for me That was like It is funny though Cause like Like that's how That's gonna happen That's kinda what I said Yeah Cause like for the longest time Like when you thought about The Bond franchise Especially with um I can't think of his name No

[00:25:36] The third guy Who played James Bond Dalton? No The one before Dalton I can't believe I can't think of his name Roger Moore Roger Moore Yeah Like Roger Moore's James Bond Was like So gadget heavy Yeah And so like You know One line heavy After like a kill Yeah Like you know Like Yeah Well I think he's well done You know You know You're like Oh James Oh You know Like

[00:26:06] And he got like And then When you When you got to Pierce Brosnan Cause he went They tried to go different With Dalton Like more serious And people were like That's not James Bond So they bring in Pierce Brosnan They change the tone Back to kind of like Yeah What Roger Moore was And then when The Bourne movies came out People were like Well It's Bond This is bullshit You know Like

[00:26:34] People like revolted Against Bond And The goofy I mean And the gadgets Got a little too goofy I mean like You know The The Aston Martin Vanish Was like Yeah The straw that broke The camel's back But Like for some reason We still kind of Let Mission Impossible Get away with that Yeah Like You know Like Oh well Yeah A little bit of

[00:27:04] Goofy gadgetry Cause you expect it From Mission Impossible For some reason But like Bond we held it As higher standard For some reason Yeah but the gadgets Were different I think I don't know I just feel like Mission Impossible Was more I don't know How to Describe this More realistic In a tech world Yeah That That could Possibly happen Yeah Vanishing Aston Martins Do not happen

[00:27:33] Right Do you understand What I'm saying Yeah I get what you're saying Like some of the shit's just like Something in a cufflink Is believable Yeah But still It's so You're ready for it Like you know He's got something In his cufflink Yeah Whether a poison dart Or Something Yeah Like it's It's almost set up In the movie Yeah Like he'll move His hand up Yeah You know what I mean With Mission Impossible

[00:28:03] It's not really like that Yeah You know what I'm saying Like Not that Mission Impossible Is real But I guess It's more realistic To me Right As a viewer You know what I mean Like Like when he pops a tooth out Yeah That's realistic Right Because like in his mouth He can pop that tooth And it's a cyanide tooth Right Does that make sense Yeah So That makes sense to me

[00:28:31] Bite down on the tooth That you've popped out That you can pop out And it's Kill yourself Well I I love There's a scene In Skyfall And Bond is finally meeting With Q Uh huh His quartermaster And He like Hands him a box And inside of his A A Walter PPK Yeah Like The typical gun And he's like And Bond's like Is this it Because the guy's telling He's like The The Um

[00:29:01] The handle Is imprinted With your palm print So only you can shoot it Which makes it A truly Like Personalized kill For your license To get And Bond's like Is this it And he's like If you were expecting Exploding pen We don't do that anymore Yeah I was like Oh shit You know Yeah Exactly You know But that was like A funny Like moment Where it was like Yeah we're not doing That shit anymore The goofy gadget shit

[00:29:30] Yeah But you have to think Also too In the title Mission Impossible Yeah Like everything's impossible Of what they're doing Do you understand Right But I think It's also Maybe we let them Get away with The A little bit Of the goofiness That they can do Yeah Like with the gadgets And the tech Because the Fucking Tom Cruise Is the one Hanging off Of an airplane Yeah You know Like The stunts Are Like I saw I can't I think I think it was

[00:30:00] Mark Wahlberg He was telling The story He's like I don't know I had dinner With Tom Cruise One time And we're talking And he's like You wanna know How I got that Stunt in the movie He's like I'd love to know How you got that Stunt in the movie He's like Well I went to my Safety guy And I said This is what I envisioned This is what I wanna do And he's the Safety guy I said Yeah that's impossible I can't be done So I fired that Safety guy And I hired a new One who told me It was The worst And Chris said that Yeah And Wahlberg's like And that's the difference Between me and Tom Cruise Because when the first Safety guy says

[00:30:29] That's not safe You shouldn't do that I would have said Okay Not Tom Tom's gonna find Somebody who's gonna Be a yes man Right Yes But Anyway I loved I did I mean I just didn't like it As much as I liked The last one Last one's so good It was It really Like every Like even like The ridiculousness

[00:30:59] Of Tom Cruise Launching himself Off of a mountain On a motorcycle Like Was just like Okay I'll buy into it Yeah You know And like And plowing Into the train In the exact car He needed to plow into But that's mission But that's mission impossible Yeah Yeah I get that Like you buy that Like in Even the whole thing With like them Like trying to get Out of the train Is it's like Falling off the cliff Fantastic That's so fucking Well done Yeah

[00:31:29] So well done I mean It was There was There's so much Good in that movie And like It's like I can't believe They Like That movie It's probably One of the best Spy movies I shouldn't say that Because like Skyfall is probably The best spy movie I've ever seen Like that movie Is phenomenal Okay But like Mission Impossible Like that

[00:31:58] That last Mission Impossible Was so fucking good It's like right up there You know How good that movie is And how like Edge of your seat It holds your attention The entire time Yeah You know Yeah This did too But there were some parts In it that were just A little long Yeah Where I was like But And I feel like I mean I feel like

[00:32:28] It's like one of those things Where like Tom Cruise Like sets up that movie By like saying Okay These are the set pieces I'm gonna hang off Of a biplane I'm gonna hang on the wing We're gonna do that stunt We're gonna figure out How to put it in the movie I'm gonna have to be Underwater You know And I'm You know This is my Jerk off scene So I'm gonna be Underwater And we're gonna film As much of it as possible Because I'm Tom Cruise And nobody can do What I do Yeah That's what I feel like Part of that is And then you have A writer

[00:32:57] Who has to Kind of like Okay I have to fit this shit Into a movie And base You know Tell a story around These three set pieces Right These three action sequences That Tom has to have Yeah You know And go You know Well I like how it went Into I mean I really like how it went Into the AI Yeah Aspect of it Right And that's Really cool too Right Because

[00:33:26] AI is always learning Yeah There was a part in here Believe it or not There was a part in In this movie And you'll see it And you'll recognize it When you When you watch it Reminded me of War Games Yeah Yeah Truly Yeah You know You see that Yeah I mean that's That's early AI Yeah And when was that made 84 Correct So I mean like Yeah That was AI Yeah

[00:33:55] In a In a sense In a very Very tone Yeah Right But it It was learning Right Right Computer was learning Yeah There's no way To win the game Except not to play Correct You'll see Yeah You'll see You'll recognize That Right I just got this sense At this one part In this movie I was like Wow This is just like An updated War Games Going on right now Yeah You know Which was cool You know Yeah But

[00:40:23] They have Choregraphed What they were trying To do I mean The most talented One was the Younger guy Yeah And he could do All the things But you know Like what's his name The old The old Well yeah It was so funny I love that song Like I'm not a huge Joe Cocker fan But that's a good That's a good song Yeah Alright so Keeping with the Spy

[00:40:54] Genre we're in today Okay Um MGM Amazon Announced That the director Of the next James Bond movie Will be Dene Villeneuve Okay Who Directed the last Two Dune movies And I believe Is currently In pre-production On the third Movie right now Okay Or it may be In production I'm not quite sure Um

[00:41:22] What do you think Of that As a hire A guy To Re Kind of reboot The franchise Again Okay With it Yeah You I mean I like him As a director Like I I thought The The two Dune movies He made Were fantastic Um He did something Else I liked A lot too I can't remember

[00:41:52] What You're not excited He was doing Dune Bond movies Must be Extremely expensive To make I think they are Because they do A lot of location That's what I'm saying Yeah Like there's a lot Of location Like they will Go to This Mission Impossible Must have been Fucking Although one part Of it looked like It was on the set Of Universal Yeah You know what I mean Yeah Studios Yeah

[00:42:21] But other parts Like Like Indiana Jets Yeah You know he's going To all these places Yeah but like I think a lot of Like I mean I know like a lot Of like the You know They shot in like Tunisia And stuff like that Lucas had a relationship With Tunisia From Star Wars And everything else You know what I mean So like Like the All the The Egypt scenes I think were fought

[00:42:51] Shot in Tunisia Like for the Raiders Of the Lost Ark Yeah I think They A lot of it Like Stuff was shot In Tunisia For The third one The Holy Grail one Yeah So I know Like They do a lot Of location shooting But I also think They like They'll shoot some Places They can Like We can shoot here Kind of on the cheap And it can be Wherever we need it to be Yeah

[00:43:25] But yeah Like Born Born movies I I do believe There's a lot of Location shooting Just because Like you know It starts in England It goes here It goes here It goes here So maybe they have to go You know You start in England And then you have Two or three other places You're shooting Depending upon the story I think what's

[00:43:55] More expensive Is also like The level of stunt Yeah You know You know I know you Didn't watch Any of the Daniel Craig stuff No And I wish you would Yeah Because I think you'll enjoy it As a Bond fan Yeah You know But there are some Some things that they do In those movies Where you're like

[00:44:24] It's not Mission Impossible-esque But it's still like Very impressive Yeah Daniel Craig wasn't Hanging from the side Of an airplane Or anything like that But still it's You know They do You know The one thing you say About Bond stuff Is they've always been Very impressive With their stunts Yeah Yeah I mean They got the The one car Like It was the first time Ever Like a car Did like a It jumped And the way

[00:44:54] It came off the ramp It like Did a twist And landed Like the first time It had ever been filmed Okay Yeah Like That was a Bond movie That did that shit Yeah Like the Dukes of Hazzard Type shit That was in a Bond movie Yeah But I do think Like their stunt budget Is very very high Also Yeah Just because like I mean you think about like

[00:45:23] Almost any Bond movie Starts off hot Like they have that That cold open For almost any Bond movie That Someone gets murdered Well like It's like Like ridiculous Like You know Like I think the one I think it was Goldeneye Like you know Bond's at the He shows up at the It's like the Black market bazaar Yeah And he has to steal The airplane The Russian MiG Because it has Two nuclear missiles

[00:45:53] Attached to it Yeah You know Like The stunts are ridiculous At that moment Like It's shit like that That you're like That's where the money goes Yeah Yeah I think they do They say like Well here's the three set pieces Or three big stunt sequences Let's build a movie Around this You know Yeah But also like I look back Like Like

[00:46:23] They've had some good directors Who Which is part of also The reason why I feel like Some of these movies Kind of got back on track Especially during the Daniel Craig era Of It's a more serious tone This is the tone The director is setting This is How You know Like You know what I mean Like it's It's not Sometimes you You have to Like Spend money on the director

[00:46:53] To get everything else in line Yeah You know what I mean Yeah So I'm intrigued to see Like especially with the way The last movie ended Like how they're Kind of Kind of Revamp it Or reboot it For the next generation Right And I feel like Denny Villain of the Wave Sure I'm pronouncing it wrong Yeah Um He's the guy

[00:47:23] I feel like Based upon like Watching Dune And other movies He's done That he could kind of You know He could shoot a Bond movie Is what I'm trying to say Right I feel confident Like based upon The other stuff He's done What was the other thing He did That's gonna drive me nuts Now Trying to figure out What it was that he did

[00:47:53] That I really really liked I was like Oh yeah Blade Runner 2049 That was the other thing he did Okay Which I I mean I liked that movie a lot I thought that was a fantastic Like Cause you worry about like Okay We're making a sequel 30 plus years later For a movie

[00:48:23] That like Nobody's really demanding a sequel for And I thought He made a fantastic sequel Right Like So I was thinking of like He's Top Gun 2 Like Nobody was clamoring for Top Gun 2 40 years later But yeah We got it And it was fucking fantastic Right You know That's Those are rarities Like if you go back And you're like We're gonna make Gremlins 3 this year It's probably a good chance It's gonna stink Right You know

[00:48:54] Like Everybody gets excited Like they talk about Like we're gonna make Goonies 2 Ah That makes me nervous You know Do we really need Goonies 2 Right You know But What do I know Yeah I don't know about that Yeah I don't know how That's gonna go Yeah I mean like It's 40 years later Like do we really need it Right You know

[00:49:25] But So there was that news There was Something else I can't remember what So poorly we set ourselves up Right We had this amazing review A couple weeks ago
