[00:01:25] I'm here with the lovely, the talented, the unpredictable. Oh, are you? Yep, that's me. So we're doing our usual roundtable, not reach around, just roundtables. Roundtable, reach around. It'd be more exciting, but it's a whole different thing. Are we doing it planterclockwise this week? Depends on how you can twist.

[00:01:54] Yeah, for real. Where do you want an explosion? My eye! I lost an eye. I got infected with whatever the hell. We're below comedy, if that's not clear. So doing our usual multi-roundtable mini-chats, I was like, yeah.

[00:02:22] What are some movies that could have easily been a Tales from the Crypt, Outer Limits, Twilight Zone, or X-Files episode? It's one of those anthology shows. There's always a few that I would watch, and I'd be like, this is good. I wonder what it'd be like if it was in primetime, you know, or cable TV land. It's just so good. I kind of wish Babylon had been like that, now that I think about it. Because it goes through the years.

[00:02:50] It starts off with the last silent film, then progresses into sound, and then, you know, stops at the end of that. Like, they stopped, like, just before Gone with the Wind took off. I'm like, damn it. It kind of went further. And then they had the montage at the end, which was really nice. It could have probably been one of those Ryan Murphy American horror ones, I'm sure.

[00:03:18] He had a similar one called Hollywood, I think. Oh, yeah. I need to watch that. Yeah. Yeah, one time in Hollywood. Mm-hmm. There's a few Joel Silver produced movies, like, that are just basically pulp movies, such as Ricochet with Denzel Washington. That's underrated as hell. It really is.

[00:03:39] And then Trespass with Ice-T, Will Sadler, Bill Paxton, Ice Cube, which is basically Treasure of the Sierra Madre, but with gangsters and crooked firemen. And, again, a lot of those have the same Tales from the Crypt people. Walter Hill and Robert Zemeckis worked on the latter, and the former was by Tales director Russell Mulcahy, and maybe Judgment Night by Stephen Hopkins. That's good, too. They have that just aura of it.

[00:04:09] Yeah, it's dated. Yeah, people do dumb mistakes, but that's kind of what you get with a filler movie. It's good, but I thought, like, when I rewatched it a few years ago, I was like, oh, this is going to be so cool. I was like, I think that's pretty average. It really is. It is wild. For the cast and everything, like, and the soundtrack's amazing. Yeah. It was one of those where the tension was good, but the story was kind of whatever, and the soundtrack was definitely bigger than the movie.

[00:04:38] That's how wild it was marketed. But I find it funny how there was always various DVDs being re-released, and it was like, those are not Emilio Estevez or Stephen Dorff's bodies or face. That's too recent. Just very bad Photoshop. The Phantasm films, I thought, you know, you could even argue in Evil Dead movies, but, I mean, just like Phantasm itself, like, the tall man just came off as kind of a Twilight Zone villain of the week with his brooding voice.

[00:05:10] Hardware with Dylan McDermott. It's a very apocalyptic sci-fi monster terror movie. Basically, basically a robot monster is attacking these guys in the apocalypse. Oh, no. But it's very suspenseful and got weird, demented characters, so that's why I kind of give a nomination to that. Death Machine, did you ever see that one? That was by the director of Blade at Brad Dourif as a mad scientist. Once again, kill robots.

[00:05:36] No, the only one I'm thinking of in relation to that is Upgrade. That was good. There's a contrast. Upgrade you can do. Existence, I think we've talked about. The chrono. Yes, that is so damn good. The way it ended, I was like, yep, this is a very graphic Outer Limits episode. Like, we're not just seeing people experiment with violence, but then seeing the actual insides.

[00:06:05] And you need it. Are we still in the game, or did we finish it? Absolutely. Oh, and there's just no compromising. You have to see visually what the character sees and how they're enjoying themselves too much in this whole experiment. Mm-hmm. Flatliners, I kind of got that same feel. Yeah, that remake was... Yeah, that remake was... It's a little better, but not by much.

[00:06:34] Like, I enjoyed the... The cast was okay, but I was just like... I think... I just didn't feel a vision. Yeah, they explored more on the connection between them after they died and then came back. Versus the original, which was more about star power and... It was star power, but I could...

[00:07:01] On rewatches, I do see why some of them go where they go. Why they decide, let's experiment with this. Versus one of them's like having trauma and saying I'm gonna commit suicide. It... I've... We have to say unalive to protect those that need safe spaces. Yeah. Don't get me wrong. It's a melodramatic movie. It's just... I just got more out of the visual storytelling than that.

[00:07:28] With the remake, I was like, it's not as bad as everyone makes it out to be, but it's still like... It didn't leave me with anything, really, other than a few different visual establishing shots. So I'm like, okay, so that's how they got in, but am I gonna find out about these guys or why they're doing it? Not really. True. Early turns, you know, like Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction and True Romance, I could easily see being an anthology episode. Yeah, definitely.

[00:07:58] Just all these pulpy tells... I mean, hence the name, Pulp Fiction, but... Yeah. Memento, I always kind of thought, yeah, just the reverse delivery. Of the story, like, that could have easily been a Twilight Zone if you wanted to twist it. True. The Zemeckis' produced, Peter Jackson directed The Frighteners, actually started out as... Was supposed to be the original Tales from the Crypt movie, but... Oh. They changed. Man.

[00:08:27] The first two Wishmasters and the two Gremlins movies, I could totally see being... No. Twilight Zone reality tale, don't play with water. Lovecraft films, too. Yeah, any H.P. Lovecraft movie, yes. Good call. Yeah, because nobody talks about cast of Deadly Spell. I'm like, that's the only time you ever see, like, Cthulhu on screen. Even though it's a massive prop deal, but still, like...

[00:08:57] To see a full rendition of him today would be epic as shit. But they'll never do it. Yeah, I mean, they came so close. I was going to nominate Lovecraft Country, because, like... Yeah. That, I felt, was as hard as they were going back to me. I still can't believe that got canceled. I'm so pissed about that. I think, like many of these productions, I would...

[00:09:22] Kind of like they did with some superhero movies where they're like, we filmed here for a tax cut, but it was really just because... Like, they did that with Daredevil and Punisher. It was really just to get this actor who was here in this state, and it's like, okay, whatever. However you want to spin it, but that's not the story. And they did that with Lovecraft Country, where they're like, we're done. We're concluded. We want to move on.

[00:09:44] But really, it was just because, like, both Jonathan Majors and Journey Small had actually had issues with creator Misha Green. Like, a lot of the writers and... The directors seemed to be okay with her, but, like, the writers were... And two ladies were describing her as very toxic, which is just so sad, seeming how... Considering her brother's a fucking idiot.

[00:10:10] Yeah, Journey's got the dumb brother who, like, was faking getting mugged for attention, and... Don't get me started on Jonathan... Mega forever. Mega forever. And don't get me started on Jonathan Majors' whole Me Too incident, but, like, I was just like... With this, I'm like, oh, Misha, the stuff you're talking about on this show, like... Don't tell me you're, like, one of these guys, you know, off screen. It's just like, geez, some people... Great writers, but monsters behind the scenes. So, yeah.

[00:10:40] It was one of those, like, everyone was in agreement, and Jordan Peele, the producer. I'm like, if I was him, I would have stepped in and said, okay, I'll get a different showrunner. Let's continue. For real. Five more years. I'm fucking Jordan Peele. Yeah. And Fallen with Denzel Washington, Fighting an Undead Serial Killer, you know, a lot of those movies. The First Power, I Come in Peace, is like, almost all of them had kind of an X-Files kind

[00:11:10] of feel. The Hidden. Especially The Hidden. Absolutely. And I did finally, you know, did you ever see The Arrival growing up? Don't know what that is. Yeah, so, David Twahy, best known for creating the Riddick saga. Oh, Charlie Sheen? Yes. Yeah, I saw that. I would always see parts of it on Sci-Fi Channel. Right? And I'd be like, what is this? This is intense. I've heard great things, but I was so lost.

[00:11:40] Mustache and shit, like, damn. He had a mustache. I think that's why it worked. He's not playing Charlie Sheen. Like, he's a scientist, and I think, I mean, it was definitely coming to me. Coming out to not only talk about what America's common urban myths and fears were at the time, as well as The Crazy Backs Files, but I just dug how it was just a one and done. Like, he looks around, he sees unusual happenings, both in his apartment complex and in other places.

[00:12:10] And Ron Silver, that was probably the first role I saw him in. He'd already been, you know, again, on Time Cop and just in other shows later on, like West Wing. And I was like, yeah, he can play a bad apple in his sleep. He's a good actor. But, and it was one of those, when you rented the DVD, the sequel had nothing to do with the first one. It was just a, oh, Charlie went missing. Let's have Patrick Muldum from Starship Troopers be his brother.

[00:12:39] And let's have a random naked woman, and for just no reason, just to get an R rating. And it didn't make any difference, because you'd see it on SyFy channel, and it's just rated, it's edited to TVPG. And you're just like, this is dumb and boring. What movie? There was another one I just thought of that did that. There was a lot of them that did that. A lot of the hidden definitely did it. I mean, it's just like, okay, so. Oh, Scooby-Doo returned to Zombie Island. What a fucking waste.

[00:13:09] Oh, man. You know, I actually didn't mind it. No, it didn't even have anything to do with the first one, basically. It's just them. It's just the cat people returning and. They're not even there, which is sad. I was so excited for that. I didn't realize that. I was so excited when I watched it. I was like, what the fuck is this trash? No, it's all good. I didn't expect much. I just was like, okay. Don't get me wrong.

[00:13:37] There's been duds by plenty of those other animated movies. I just was like, okay, Scooby-Doo. Elvira's making a cameo. It's meant to just be passable. What do I know? I think it just somehow they unlock the kid in me just watching those movies, regardless of whether it's nostalgia talking or just average. There's some other twi-hi stuff like timescape and the warlock movies could probably put in there. Yeah, definitely warlock for sure.

[00:14:07] You could probably put in, obviously, I think that's why I was okay with Hellraiser is like, yeah, I'm definitely. I mean, these are definitely the king of them and Candyman are definitely monkey's paw movies. They're not. And people are getting the actor playing the villain mistaken. It's like, yeah, well, if you want an actor to carry it, go with Freddy Krueger. Or the established title villain like Jason Voorhees.

[00:14:33] These are more, they're one of many characters, but much like Nightbreed kind of expanded upon. There's all kinds of people who are in this dark world, Lord of Illusions, and yet it's not enough. People just, people are just impossible. They want either to be force-fed stuff or just... They want comic book films. They want comic book films. They also want Shocks and whatever. I don't really care for Shocks anymore.

[00:15:04] It's so wild. It was all the rage growing up. And then after a while, it was like, once I see it, I can't unsee it, which means... Honestly, when 2000s ended, that's about when Shocks died off. Yeah. Because 2010, it was just CVMs and then random shit in between. Whereas 2000s, it was like consistent, unrated, extended, director's cut of our films left and right. It's just like a couple F-bombs, more tits.

[00:15:36] I'm like, that works. Like, okay, cool. And then everything else was just kind of meh. It's like, get the unrated cut. I'm like, okay, cool. Get to the unrated cut. And it's like five minutes of extra footage. That was always like the big selling point back then. I was like, five extra minutes. It's more graphic. But does it solve any of the plot issues? No. It's more enjoyable. But that's the other irony, too. Sometimes I would... That was always the irony.

[00:16:05] I would see some movies and it's like, well, now I know the character's motivation. But they had to omit it because it was in one of the R-rated or X-rated scenes that... It didn't make it. And it was like, yeah. And as a result, their death scene goes away, too. Speaking of that, I was watching Last Temptation of Christ the other night. Great movie. And I want to see the storyline of Jesus and Mary Magdalene's baby. I want to see that unfold.

[00:16:35] I really want to see what would happen if that baby had been born. Good question. Yeah. I mean... Because I saw it. I'm like... Because I'm watching it. Like, okay, they burned. She's pregnant. And then a couple minutes later, God wipes her ass out. Like, what the fuck? Why would you do that? You asshole. Why would you do that? Like, for real. Like, all that time. And it's like, finally gets to bust the nut. But...

[00:17:03] And I think he loses the nut. It's wild how they can show alternate radical Christian fiction, but no one wants to explore anything else. They're like, oh, never get any buyers. We'll offend someone. It's like, you can get the radicals, but not any other different interpretation. Okay. And I'm still surprised Martin Scorsese did that. Like, to me, that feels like something that Darren Aronofsky would do. So, but... It's a precursor.

[00:17:32] Paul Schrader, you know, who we worked with on Bringing Out the Dead and Taxi Driver and Raging Dead. That was good. I love Bringing Out the Dead. I haven't watched it in a long time. That's still good. That's some wild shit. Fucking... Oh, it's so funny. You think dead, so you think, oh, it's a horror movie. I'm like, ooh. No, I didn't even think that when I watched it. Well, I saw Nicolas Cage and I'm like, okay, this is going to be fun because of Nicolas Cage. And that was what, 98, 99 or 2000? Well, you'll find it this funny.

[00:18:01] So, I... Because it kept coming on FX... It kept coming. Yeah, I see what you did there. Yeah, no, FX would air it during their Halloween marathon. I kid you not. Wow, that was 99. Holy shit. And I'm like, it's not a horror movie. Why are you airing it during... It says horror action. I... Martin Scorsese directed that shit? Damn. Yeah, that's why I brought it up. Yeah. Huh.

[00:18:30] He teamed up with Shredder on it. I really want to interview... What the fuck was it? Edward Norton. Because he made that remark about, I would put 1999 up against any decade. And I want to talk... I really want to talk to him about that. Because that's like so intriguing to me and fascinating. Because it's a study point from the end of the decade into a new decade.

[00:18:56] And then comparing it to 2009, 2019, or even 89, 79. Go back and forth in time and compare the decades. It'll be interesting. Because it's one of those things. Like, you know, it was 99 and everybody's on edge. Yes. Because Y2K is around and people are just throwing films out left and right. Oh, man. And not expecting them to be anything. And then decades later, they're called classics.

[00:19:27] Alan, that's just it too. For the right and wrong reasons. Well, that's just it. Yeah. There's bad movie classics. Then there's legit. Like, this is good. It's just... No one liked it at the time. But... I mean... Blade Runner? Say no more. But yeah, Fight Club's another example. It's just like... Even Falling Down, I think, could have been even better as an endology or a miniseries. But... That's some funny shit. So many people love to misinterpret that movie. I'm like, it's pretty obvious. He's just...

[00:19:56] I'm the bad guy? Yeah. No. You're the bad guy now. That's what every bad guy does. They think they're doing God's work and they're really fucking it all up. So... I don't know why everyone had to have this conversation. It's dumb. But... Because some people don't see... They don't see between the lines. That's the problem. They're so used to a certain linear type of storytelling. And then they see this. And it goes against their cognitive dissonance.

[00:20:25] And then they come back and I don't get it. I'm like... Okay, I'll explain it to you slowly with an easy mouth. What else do I have to say? Yeah. It takes a while. It really does. Because there's so many people who don't get basic filmography. And it's wild. Even when I was watching Babylon, I'd forgotten silent films use title cards to talk. I'm like, oh shit. They had only music and title cards. Wow.

[00:20:54] Oh, I find it even wilder how... I mean, a Nazi dies and freaking falling down. And Nazis praise it. I'm like, he killed one of you. One of you fuckers. Because they want to go to McDonald's and have breakfast. Yeah. I want to be like him. I mean, I get that. It's an anger thing. It's like, I want to go to McDonald's. I want to have breakfast with Hitler. They probably watch a lot of war movies and side with the war criminal. I do that.

[00:21:23] I'll watch that show like, man, that criminal was right. This fucking establishment needs to burn. And then people get mad at me. I'm like, it's obvious. I'm fucking with you. Because I hate... The one thing I hate is how every film that has a war attached to it, the US is always portrayed as the hero and shit. And I'm like, no. We're not the fucking heroes. We're the assholes that started it. I just like the gangster movies.

[00:21:53] We'll have some of the guys. We're good gangsters. I'm like, there's no such thing. It's all a one since. Halfway through. Oh, we're really bad. One of you is trying to go straight. The rest of you are all just living and dying together and killing people. And don't get me started on all the propaganda they'll push in a crime show. It's like, they all do it in subtle different ways. But every once in a while, one of them will do it really poorly. And they're really good guys. I'm like... And of course, there's the best one in there. The Infinite Ammo Clips. Yeah.

[00:22:24] Firing 20 out of a six-shooter. Dude, I saw that shit in the Predator 2018. I was laughing my ass off. I was like... They didn't reload for shit. Yeah. Just hand on the trigger. Like, no empty and close. I'm like, I know they're empty by now. I've watched Kentucky Ballistics. I know how many rounds are in the magazine. I know how many are in the clip. Let's do this. I was having too much fun with it. But at the same time, yes. It's a good fucking movie.

[00:22:54] And she's like, dude. I'll defend it. Reload. Well. They could easily... The Predator could easily be a Twilight Zone show. Yeah. And my friend... Who will he kill this week? Will they survive or not? And it ends with someone who finally gets away from his death traps. I mean, technically... I mean, there's still open endings in Predator itself. Which is funny. Yeah. What happened to the village gal? She appears briefly in part two as the confession. But I'm like, what? What happened to her? Yeah.

[00:23:23] It's like, what happened to Santa's character? Did they pay her money and say, you saw nothing? You did nothing? And is Gary Busey's company connected to Area 51? Or are they just an actual private government funded... My friend Paul over in Ireland told me to watch... Because I reserved Prey from the library so I can watch it again. And he told me to watch it. He asked me if I'd watched it with Navajo. And I'm like, no. And he's like, watch it with Navajo. I'm like, okay.

[00:23:52] I didn't know that was even an option. I'll have to check that next time on... Dude, you should see the... This is what blows my mind. I have rented so many different Blu-rays. And each one, the language menu is absolutely enormous. There's like 15 choices of language now versus English, French, and Spanish from back then. That gives me hope for the future. It used to be very limited. Yeah. It used to be English and French. I'm like, okay.

[00:24:19] Or I got to buy five more copies of this stupid movie just to get... And it was such a bitch. I'm like, okay. And then I see this new menu of languages. And I'm like, wow. That's a lot. Why the hell did Fox not theatrically release this? This is good. It's crazy. It would have been an arthouse film in Navajo. I guarantee you it would have won something. Yeah, definitely.

[00:24:44] There was this one Bill Paxton home invasion dark comedy called The Vagrant that was by the effects guys who did Enemy Mining Gribbling. Oh, wow. I always thought, yeah, this is a total Tales from the Crip episode. They Live and the Fly remake, Society by Brian Usna, and the 80s thing, as well as Get Out and the Dentist films. I got vibes of those as well.

[00:25:11] I'm like, these might have worked even better had they been an episode of one of these shows. I'm going to the Denzel Washington well again. Deja vu. Good shit. Almost made me cry. That ending. The Getaway with Alan Baldwin and Kim Basinger is also kind of a pulpy movie. And I'm not surprised it did so terribly because why did they just wait so long to adapt all these movies that it's like everything flew in the 50s, the 70s.

[00:25:40] And yet somehow, even though America wasn't sensitive, they grew a conscience. They're like, oh, we can't have bad guys anymore. And then after Sopranos, oh, we want your bad guys protagonist. It's for real. What do you want? You want one or the other? It's wild. It's wild. It's wild.

[00:26:00] Because you want to have something that works, but at the same time, it's hard to make it manifest properly. And why do I need the Crypt Keeper laughing here to remind you that someone bad has been dealt with? I know. That's the best part. I love Crypt Keeper. All his puns. Every fucking pun. I love Crypt Keeper. Fun fact, do you know how he got that gig? No. I don't know.

[00:26:30] He won Star Search four times telling the same free jokes. That's beautiful. And then he was finally on some kind of shared stand-up special on HBO. And they're like, we're betting all our money on him. He's got the voice. He's got the persona. And people actually would come up to the actor John Kassir and get this. They thought he was actually playing him in a costume and everything. He's like, no. No, no. It's a puppet. Come on, man. It's a puppet.

[00:26:59] Everybody knows a fucking puppet. You can tell. How could I not tell? I mean, it's that lifelike. I mean, that's the perks of Stan Winston and shit. Yeah. Everybody was trying to outdo Stan Winston's milestones and Rick Baker. Yep. Like, damn. Winston and Baker were the first names. And then when I learned about Rob Bowden and all these other guys, that guy who worked on it.

[00:27:26] I'm so sad that I saw him at a convention and didn't realize he was behind the Crypt Keeper. But he was best known as the Hellraiser 4 director who disowned it. He's come around on it since. Kevin Yeager.

[00:27:43] And when I look at his stuff, again, you know, Elm Street, 2 for 4, Enemy of the State, Starship Troopers, Radio Flyer, Mission Impossible 2, even Child's Play where he met his wife, Catherine Hicks. But I'm like, and he apparently admitted in interviews that I've heard that apparently Chucky's eyes are the Crypt Keeper's eyes. Like, he used that same prop from his puppets. Yeah, I can see that. Yeah.

[00:28:09] He even did the Fat music video makeup for Weird Al. Oh, wow. Making fun of freaking Michael Jackson. Yeah. As well as Rambo and makeup and UHF. But yeah, I know. And nowadays people would probably know him from doing all the gory crime scene makeup that you see on shows like Rizzoli and Isles and Bones. So chances are if you've seen.

[00:28:39] Oh, and he worked on The Dentist. So there you go. It all comes back to The Dentist. I want to go. Oh, the hardest part is just separating it all when you're like, so-and-so worked on this. And then so did this other effects guy and that guy. But they're in different departments. This guy's really miniature. Yeah, me watching shit from back then and trying to separate it all out.

[00:29:01] Like, I watched Constantine and then I watched X-Men Origins Wolverine. And I was like, I could have sworn I saw the one senator walking with bloody footprints. I got that confused with Peter's Lucifer bloody foot, sticky footprint role in Constantine. I was like, are you fucking serious?

[00:29:29] Because I watched it and I'm like, I swear he was walking barefoot bloody. And it was the wrong character. I don't know. Yeah. Mandela effect, man. That's the beauty. That's the real beautiful thing. When you watch a movie with somebody after a couple of years, like, I could have sworn I was like, no, it's Mandela effect. Like, no, I know it wasn't. No, it's Mandela effect. Oh, man.

[00:29:54] It's like our years before we're having to eat differently and what have you is like, our brain will just randomly like throw shit out and restructure it. I'm like, why? I needed that. I need it, man. Why did you forget me? Why did you forget me? I've sifted out so much shit on rewatches and rereading comics and stuff.

[00:30:23] Because that's always fun. Because when you reread a comic from like ages ago, everything is brand new and you pick up on newer things and you're like, oh, this is really good. But it's also kind of shitty. Yeah. Certain characters. It's pretentious. If you look at it this way. Yeah. Like I've run into so many things. I'm like, wow, this was really darker than I thought it was.

[00:30:51] That's like I was when I read Hulk Maestro omnibus. I was like, oh, this is going to be fun. Cool. And I was like, this has sexual content in it. Like what? Like, oh, Hulk raped himself. Cool. Adapt that, Kevin Feig. I love to see. Adapt that fucking story. Have him raping himself. That'll go down well.

[00:31:19] I mean, that's one way to do it. But they'll never do it. They'll just be like, oh, here he is with his bandolier shit. And I'm like, that's not him. They're afraid. Yeah, they are. Kevin's chicken shit won't do anything fucking right. And then he just keeps saying, I'm doing something different. I'm like, Agatha all along is hardly the horror show people want to see. You want to see a horror show? We'll go watch Ghost Rider.

[00:31:49] At least that was fun because that was scary and exciting at the same time. Oh, man. It's the right blend. It's just Spirit of Vengeance didn't really keep up with it like it should. No. I felt so bad for Idris. I'm like, oh, he's so good. Waste of Idris. Don't waste our dude. Word. And then somebody posted he's going to be in the new Star Wars show. And so I was like, where's the link? Where's the source? Like, don't need a source. Like, don't know. That's your first problem. Yeah.

[00:32:19] You got to fire Kennedy first. I don't see her as a problem. Everybody else does. I don't see her as a problem. I just don't think she has imagination. But she seemed very productive when she was working with Amblin and Universal. And then after a while, it's just like, okay. So she's the talking head. However, I would just blame all just the whole infrastructure as a whole. It's like Disney. Hire people who are good, not people who are yes men. No.

[00:32:49] Oh, I mean, I look at everything that's been put out and it's very fascinating. I want to do, I'm going to do a video eventually on the whole of everything Star Wars that was put out last decade. Because that's just, it's fascinating. It's a fascinating subject because you got to think about this.

[00:33:12] It's from Disney's purchase of Star Wars till the end of that decade, 2019. That whole five-year period, they put out so many books, so many comics, so many art books, so many shows, so many movies. So many to keep up with? It's a lot. And games and less games. There were just like, I think, four or five games, maybe even seven.

[00:33:37] But you look at the frequency of everything that was put out and it's a fascinating ordeal. It's very fascinating. I knew people like you. They, it was their RPG. Like, without the expanded universe, they would not have given a shit about it. Nah. It's so wild. We'll return after these messages. All right, folks, how's that here?
