🪐 Episode Summary
This week on Distance NERDing, the crew dives headfirst into the fandom multiverse — from Sadie Sink possibly joining the MCU as a Punisher protégé, to Hugh Jackman refusing to hang up the claws, and why Roda the Hutt might just be Star Wars’ next thirst trap (you read that right). We honor legendary artist Drew Struzan, roast Belarus for banning us (again), and debate who deserves the short king crown of Marvel.
Things escalate fast when the team invents the galaxy’s weirdest ship: Rodd-ula (Roda the Hutt x Hera Syndulla). Please, internet — don’t make it a thing.
Also on deck:
- Demon Slayer breaks box office records 🔥
- Splinter Cell sneaks onto Netflix 🎮
- Percy Jackson casts Kate McKinnon as Aphrodite 💘
- George Lucas moves on, and James Gunn’s Swamp Thing rises from the muck 🌿
- Plus, a Batman debate and Jessica Jones’ possible MCU comeback.
This one’s got jokes, chaos, and enough caffeine to summon a kaiju.

No, not at all. Well, ladies and gentlemen,

let's jump right into this. You are now tuned into the worst
00:02:02
kept secret on the Internet. You are now watching or
00:02:04
listening to later on to the Distance starting podcast.
00:02:23
Well, ladies and gentlemen, let's jump right into this.
00:02:25
This week on deck, we're starting off a little sad.
00:02:27
It's in memoriam. Sorry.
00:02:29
Let me switch page here, jumping into starting rumors from there
00:02:33
because we got a bunch of rumors.
00:02:34
We got to talk about quick bites because what are we going to do
00:02:36
with all the news? And of course, the trend up,
00:02:39
talking about all the trending topics on the Internet right
00:02:43
now. And then rounding out the end of
00:02:44
the show, it's the geek and update because we've got a lot
00:02:47
of fun things to talk about, things that just passed and
00:02:50
things that are coming. So let's jump into this before
00:02:54
we jump into everything else that we're going to do.
00:02:56
I'm saying jump a lot tonight. Really.
00:02:59
Are I? Really am.
00:03:01
Before we jump into everything else, Yeah, shut up.
00:03:03
You did it again. Yep.
00:03:06
First, let me get a shout out. Oh, God, I'm terrible.

00:03:33
anime flavor yesterday, Chainsaw.
00:03:37
Man pickle. Pickle.
00:03:38
It's not pickle, it's a blood orange, blood orange cream, but
00:03:42
it's. That actually makes more sense
00:03:43
for Chainsaw Man being a blood orange.
00:03:45
Right, but they did a blood orange cream flavor for for
00:03:49
chainsaw man. So they are getting more and
00:03:51
more endorsements with anime. And I mean they have two pretty
00:03:54
major anime franchises that Debbie is sponsoring right now.
00:03:58
So again, they have solo leveling, which is a big, big
00:04:01

Man. Of course, all the other
00:04:04

And of course there's a whole bunch of episodes.
00:05:06
I actually listened to the main show today.
00:05:08
I listened to Fandom Portals and I listened to, I got caught up
00:05:12
on last week's episode of Challenge Accepted featuring our
00:05:16
very own graveyard. Yeah.
00:05:18
I saw that and there was a, they've got a short out about it
00:05:21
too, and it looks so cool. I, I, you know, I don't like
00:05:24
horror, but I'm gonna watch. I'm gonna listen to it.
00:05:27
Yeah. I have in the same.
00:05:29
I can now listen to two different episodes with
00:05:32
Graveyard talking about Trick or Treat and it makes me want to go
00:05:36
watch that movie again, so it's pretty good.
00:05:38
All right, all right, Graveyard is gonna get a big head.
00:05:41
Just not gonna fit in the grave anymore.
00:05:43
Let's go ahead and let's take it down.
00:05:46
We'll get our vibe down so that we can because our In Memoriam
00:05:49
is up. Not correct.
00:05:50
Correct. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, this
00:05:53
week we lost a monumental figure in the art world.
00:05:58
As far as a lot of the things that you grew up with, a lot of
00:06:02
the posters you grew up with, this is the man who created a
00:06:04
lot of that fan art. Drew Strutzen passed away this
00:06:08
this last week and we have a video commemorating.
00:06:11
So I'm going to put this up on screen and we'll take a moment
00:06:14
to reflect on on Drew. Drew Struzen, the legendary
00:06:17
illustrator whose brush defined generations of cinema, has
00:06:20
passed away. His signal miniature style,
00:06:22
hyper real phases bathed in cinematic light, collaged with
00:06:26
emotion and adventure, became the visual heartbeat of
00:06:29
Hollywood's golden franchises. From Star Wars to Indiana Jones,
00:06:33
Back to the Future to Blade Runner, Struzen's work didn't
00:06:36
just sell the movie, it became part of the mythos.
00:06:39
His posters were portals, a single image that promised
00:06:42
wonder, danger, and heart for fans.
00:06:44
They were the first glimpse of the Galaxy far, far away, for
00:06:48
the last echo of a whip crack in silhouette.
00:06:50
In a world of photos and teaser trailers, Strusens hand painted
00:06:54
compositions reminded us that the movie magic begins with
00:06:58
imagination. He didn't just paint posters, he
00:07:01
painted memory. Absolutely, 100% agree with all
00:07:04
of that. And he will be missed.
00:07:07
There's not a movie in our fandoms and the group of fandoms
00:07:11
that we have that didn't have a poster that he painted that that
00:07:15
we all love. I mean, all the Star Wars stuff,
00:07:17
the Goonies, you look at Indiana Jones.
00:07:20
I mean, we talked about this two weeks ago when Grogu Mandalorian
00:07:24
and Grogu dropped its its poster and we were talking about how
00:07:27
much it looks like something that he drew.
00:07:29
So, you know, kind of a big deal and he will be missed.
00:07:32
Yeah, you think about, like how iconic, say, John Williams is
00:07:36
and his music and how much it made cinema over the past, like,
00:07:40
40-50, you know, years. Drew Strusen, same thing, like
00:07:44
his posters, Goonies, Star Wars, Indiana Jones.
00:07:47
It's crazy how much his work has touched everybody.
00:07:50
And whether you knew his name or not, you knew his work, right?
00:07:53
Right. Well, and also he like I was
00:07:55
thinking about this when I was looking at those that it takes
00:07:58
you back to the movie. Like you see that that poster
00:08:01
and you immediately remember the first time you saw the movie,
00:08:05
whatever poster it what you know, I mean, like, and I just
00:08:07
think that that's amazing that somebody can have such a style
00:08:11
that resonated with so many people.
00:08:13
And I mean we all grew up with it.
00:08:15
So it's like our like part of our childhood.
00:08:18
Yeah, Rest in peace, Drew, and again, we will continue to
00:08:21
admire your art for years to come.
00:08:23
Let's start some rumors. Let's move on.
00:08:25
Let's Drew. Would want that Drew would want
00:08:27
us to keep living. Yeah, he would want us to
00:08:29
continue to be banned in Belarus because that's what we're just
00:08:31
exactly what we're going to do. Ladies and gentlemen, it's time
00:08:33
to get banned in Belarus. Let's start some rumors.
00:08:37
Yeah. I don't.
00:08:39
I don't know if it's conversation over it and that
00:08:42
maybe stops it from getting stuck in Belarus.
00:08:47
Ban, ban, ban to Belarus. Band of Belarus.
00:08:50
Band of Band of Belarus. We gotta be Band of Belarus.
00:08:54
Right. We're banned in, We're banned in
00:08:56
Belarus. I think Belarus is like, what
00:08:59
are these guys doing? Hey, you were the ones that
00:09:02
decided to ban US Belarus, OK? All right, let's let's leave
00:09:05
Belarus alone. Let's not get no, but we should.
00:09:08
Have Frank put that out as a short targeted for Belarus?
00:09:11
Yeah, we should just target Belarus with.
00:09:13
Only release it geolocation in. Belarus Yeah, Geolocation felt
00:09:18
like a like a EMP or something. Honestly, I and we're not going
00:09:22
to jump into this, but just this is a question.
00:09:23
This is something for everybody to just like wrap their mind
00:09:26
around. We're banned in Belarus because
00:09:28
of that song. What did that song do to Belarus
00:09:30
that got them banned? Just something to think about,
00:09:32
guys. Oh my.
00:09:33
God, yeah. Right, on that note, you.
00:09:35
Can't have rumors, that's what. It is all right.
00:09:37
Speaking of rumors, if Sadie's suiting up as the Punisher's
00:09:40
sidekick, Marvel's about to go from Stranger things to stranger
00:09:45
slings, huh? Get.
00:09:46
It I see. OK, there.
00:09:49
Leaked set photos of Spider Man Brand New Day show Sadie Sink in
00:09:53
camel pants, combat boots, and a khaki coat, sparking intense
00:09:58
speculation that she's playing Rachel Cole Alves.
00:10:01
Alves Alves, a former Marine turned Punisher ally in the
00:10:06
comics, Rachel debuted in Punisher volume 9 #1 as a grief
00:10:11
stricken widow who joins Frank Frank's war on crime.
00:10:15
With John Berenthal confirmed to return as the Punisher, fans are
00:10:18
connecting the dots fast tacos on the table.
00:10:21
Is Sadie's Sink suiting up as Marvel's deadliest new
00:10:25
vigilante? Or is this camo just a red
00:10:28
haired herring? I'm I'm not against this and The
00:10:31
thing is, is my only issue with Sadie's sync playing Rachel is I
00:10:35
feel like Sadie sync is still too young, but at the same time
00:10:38
it's it's not out of the realm of possibility.
00:10:40
Yeah, I mean, I mean, I haven't seen her in a couple years, you
00:10:43
know, through the last stranger thing.
00:10:45
So she could have aged up. Yeah, yeah.
00:10:46
I was gonna say that, that she could.
00:10:48
I mean, she's probably, but he's not a teenager anymore.
00:10:51
He's in her 20s, I think now. But, you know, there, if it
00:10:53
follows the comic, she's getting married and then this all
00:10:57
happens. So she could got she could have
00:10:59
got married. Yeah.
00:10:59
I mean, honestly, that could be it.
00:11:02
I think my only thing is just because she is her character is
00:11:06
supposed to be a marine herself and I guess you know, you can be
00:11:08
a marine out of high school 18 she she could be 22 if she did,
00:11:13
if she did 1 like you know, 1 tour of service.
00:11:15
Could be a bit of an origin story type thing, yeah.
00:11:19
I mean, they may not even really touch on that.
00:11:21
The Marine thing. I mean, we don't know, like we
00:11:24
won't know and it's a rumor. I'm excited about it because I
00:11:27
really don't want her to be when or, or actually a Mary Jane or
00:11:32
may or like May Parker or like, you know, I'm like or Jean Grey.
00:11:37
I don't want her. You know, it's like, I don't
00:11:38
want any of these things to be, to be, you know, having the
00:11:41
Punisher there makes it seem like this is more likely than,
00:11:44
say, Mayday Parker, you know? Yeah, and I'm.
00:11:48
Not. I'm not don't get me wrong, I'm
00:11:50
not against her playing Rachel. I think that she's good enough
00:11:53
actress that she could do that. We don't know what her like
00:11:55
action action chops are because she's done light action in in a
00:11:59
horror show. But I mean, that's not to say
00:12:01
that you can't do training. There are plenty of actors who
00:12:03
go through all of the stunt training and can and go through
00:12:06
the shooting training. I mean, you look at Keanu Reeves
00:12:08
and how you know, just insane he is when it comes to like his web
00:12:12
training. So I mean like that all came
00:12:14
from just training for a movie. So I I'm I'm again, I am not
00:12:18
against her being Rachel, just my my hang up is the last time
00:12:22
we saw her she was still a teenager.
00:12:23
It feels like she might still be too young to play the character
00:12:26
but I don't know it James is right, it has been like 3 years
00:12:29
since we've seen her so she may actually be age appropriate.
00:12:32
So. My tacos are on the table for
00:12:35
this and one I didn't see this coming. 2 This would be the a
00:12:39
good way to introduce somebody like Sadie Sink into the MCU,
00:12:43
but without any baggage. You know, nobody's going to have
00:12:46
some preconceived notions on what Rachel's going to look look
00:12:49
like or act like or or even care.
00:12:51
You know what she's going to be. But the downside is it's a
00:12:54
character that may be a one and done.
00:12:56
You know, like she may not be there for the long haul as far
00:12:59
as the MCU goes. Or she might be a ground level
00:13:01
Bucky, you never know. Ground level Bucky.
00:13:04
Bucky on the ground? No.
00:13:05
We all, we love ground level. Bucky all.
00:13:07
Right, I'm going to keep it going, all right.
00:13:08
How many last stands is Hugh Jackman going to have?
00:13:11
Despite Logan being the swan song, Hugh Jackman's return in
00:13:16
Deadpool and Wolverine cracked the multiverse wide open, and
00:13:19
now insiders claim he's sticking around.
00:13:21
Rumors suggest he's already part of the script for a Deadpool
00:13:25
sequel and could appear in Avengers, Secret Wars or beyond.
00:13:29
Marvel even announced a new actor for Wolverine in a 2026
00:13:33
project, hinting at a possible dual claw era.
00:13:37
Tacos on the table. Is Jackman really going to play
00:13:40
Logan till he's 90 or is Marvel just milking one last
00:13:43
multiversal lap? What do y'all think Frey?
00:13:45
What do you think about you Jackman coming?
00:13:47
Back hoping it's going to be a one thing my tacos are off the
00:13:50
table that it's going to be super like he's going to be
00:13:53
doing it for a while. I I want, you know, if he shows
00:13:56
up in Secret Wars, great, that'll be fantastic.
00:14:00
Goodbye Hugh Jackman and then bring in somebody else because
00:14:05
dudes getting old and I really feel bad for him and I really
00:14:08
don't want him to break a hip, so I'm saying no.
00:14:11
I mean, it'll heal, right? The hip will heal.
00:14:13
He's getting older, so it's going to take a lot longer.
00:14:17
I'm again, my tacos are on the table that he's coming back.
00:14:20
And it's mainly because of the way that he has gone about it in
00:14:24
the past. He said he when he when they did
00:14:27
Logan, his whole thing was, I'm done with the character.
00:14:29
I'm done with keeping up this body.
00:14:31
But a lot of it was because he wasn't believing in the stories
00:14:34
that they were telling. And now that it's a part of
00:14:36
Marvel and now that he's in stories that actually tell a
00:14:40
kind of accurate version of Wolverine, you're getting all
00:14:44
these versions of these these kind of aspects of Wolverine
00:14:47
that they weren't allowed to do in in the Fox universe.
00:14:50
Now you can get into his alcoholism, you can get into how
00:14:52
violent he is and everything like that.
00:14:54
And Disney's all for it. So I feel like he's at a point
00:14:57
where he's like, as long as I can keep up the body and I'm not
00:15:00
like, you know, killing myself, I think that I'm willing to
00:15:03
continue doing this character. And the other thing is because
00:15:05
he does still look like himself. And that's the thing about Logan
00:15:09
is that Logan is ageless. So as long as he still looks the
00:15:12
part, I think he's willing to continue playing the character.
00:15:15
I do want to see another actor take up the mantle, but at the
00:15:18
same time I'm not upset with him continuing on even though he's
00:15:22
way too tall for care. Right, right.
00:15:24
Yeah, we, we need, we need to show some, some, some tiny guy
00:15:27
love, right, James? Kevin Feige, what happened to
00:15:30
representation, you know? Little king energy.
00:15:33
Exactly. We need some short King energy
00:15:36
up in here. We need, we need short
00:15:37
Wolverine. We need puck.
00:15:39
Are Canadians just short? Is that really what it is?
00:15:41
I don't, I don't really know. We need puck, We need short
00:15:43
Wolverine. What is going on I mean?
00:15:45
Deadpool's 5 10 so I mean he's 6 foot.
00:15:49
Well, but yeah, I mean, there's also something what Sasquatch?
00:15:52
Sasquatch is Canadian, so. He's passive, yeah.
00:15:55
Yeah. So I was like, I think it's just
00:15:57
it's a, it's a median, like, you know, there it's.
00:16:00
Law of averages. Law of averages.
00:16:02
And when we talk averages, we mean average height or below,
00:16:04
right? James, Right?
00:16:05
Right. Hubbet size.
00:16:06
Hubbet size? Yeah, we need a hubbet with
00:16:08
claws. That's really what we're looking
00:16:10
for. In this.
00:16:12
That's what we want. OK, just.
00:16:13
Picturing Sean Astin. Hey, Wolverine.
00:16:17
At the end of the show, we're going to talk about that because
00:16:18
I hung out with Sean Astin this weekend again, so it was great.
00:16:21
That's it. Sean Astin as the next
00:16:23
Wolverine. That's Wolverine.
00:16:25
You know how much he would love to play that character.
00:16:27
He would love it. You know how much he would love
00:16:29
to play Wolverine in the in the. 51st Dates tank top, you know,
00:16:33
always doing like bicep curls, you know, That'd be great.
00:16:36
That'd be awesome. OK.
00:16:38
You knew who else he could play Nova.
00:16:40
Or unless he's Glenn Powell. Glenn Powell is never going to
00:16:43
give you up, never going to let you down, never let you run
00:16:47
around and hurt you. OK.
00:16:50
While promoting his new Hulu series Chad Powers, Avengers
00:16:54
Doomsday writer Michael Waldron name drop Glenn Powell, who is
00:16:58
in Chad Powers as his dream pick for Richard Ryder, AKA Nova.
00:17:03
Powell's been fancast for everything from cyclops to
00:17:06
Batman, but Waldron says he'd be a pretty good Nova.
00:17:09
The Nova project is still paused, but Waldron endorsed has
00:17:13
endorsement has reignited speculation that Marvel's cosmic
00:17:17
cop could crash land in the MCU. Interesting.
00:17:20
Tacos on the table. Is this just Waldron hyping his
00:17:24
buddy or is Glen Powell already locked and loaded for the Nova
00:17:28
Corps? I didn't think about him for
00:17:30
this. Well, you know that I I have a
00:17:32
disdain for the Glen Powell. How dare you so?
00:17:36
I did. I have a disdain for him.
00:17:38
He's just too cocky. Alright, pretty, just too cocky
00:17:41
for me. He's cocky cocky anyway.
00:17:43
Pretty. No, I mean arrogant.
00:17:45
Ah, also handsome, which is what cocky means.
00:17:48
But I'm just saying that I you know what?
00:17:51
He doesn't have to be in everything.
00:17:52
He doesn't have to be in everything.
00:17:54
He and I feel like, I feel like if the original, like what that
00:17:58
original rumor we heard about how they're gonna have a young
00:18:00
Nova and he's gonna have the mentor, then I think it should
00:18:04
be. He should be older.
00:18:06
I don't think Glen Powell's old enough.
00:18:07
Be honest with you. Interesting, young Phil, what do
00:18:10
you think about Glen Powell? I'm all for this mainly because
00:18:12
Glen Powell's already mentioned that he wants to be in Marvel.
00:18:17
He has mentioned it multiple times.
00:18:19
He is a ripped enough dude that he could be Nova, especially
00:18:23
Richard Ryder. I, I'm for this.
00:18:26
I like the idea of Glen Powell being being Nova.
00:18:29
Also, Nova is not going to be a character that is super
00:18:33
predominant in Marvel. He's going to be one of those
00:18:35
like, you know, every now and then comes in kind of guys, you
00:18:38
know, so. Interesting you say that is what
00:18:41
if they have they have Nova and they want to introduce Nova and
00:18:44
they get sex symbol Glen Powell and then they have Captain
00:18:49
Marvel over here and she just kind of fades away into the
00:18:52
background and we just move forward with with Nova, huh.
00:18:56
My thing I. Thought you were gonna say so?
00:18:58
Go ahead. I was gonna say my thing with
00:18:59
Captain Marvel. I don't.
00:19:00
I don't think she should fade away.
00:19:02
Now that we're getting mutants, I think she needs to be absorbed
00:19:05
away by Rogue. Oh, see, that's what I'm talking
00:19:08
about. That's good.
00:19:09
That's good. OK, We just have made it happen.
00:19:11
Hear that? I agree with that.
00:19:12
You listening, Kevin Feige? You got that?
00:19:15
Manifesting. Or James gotten you too.
00:19:17
Are you listening? OK, let's keep it going.
00:19:19
All right, George Lucas, this one's for you.
00:19:22
From stinky to star player, Rhoda's glow up might be the
00:19:26
most unexpected redemption arc in the Galaxy.
00:19:29
I can't believe we're talking about Rhoda the Hut.
00:19:31
Rhoda the Hut. This is crazy.
00:19:33
In a recent interview, Jeremy Allen white called his character
00:19:37
in the Mandalorian and grogu Rhoda the Hut as a surprisingly
00:19:40
charming and hinted at a buddy dynamic with Grogu that could
00:19:45
steal the movie. Fans of The Clone Wars remember
00:19:48
Rhoda as Jabba's baby son, nicknamed Stinky, but his.
00:19:51
But this grown up version might be more streetwise than slimy.
00:19:56
White teased a bigger role than expected, sparking speculation
00:19:59
that Rhoda could be part of a larger alliance against Imperial
00:20:04
remnants. Little little little turn for
00:20:07
the huts. That'd be interesting.
00:20:08
So, tacos on the table. Is Rhoda the Hut really about to
00:20:11
become the galaxy's next breakout star, or is this just
00:20:16
antha poodoo? Young Phil, what do you think?
00:20:18
I. I've been very against Rd. of
00:20:21
the Hut and and it's mainly because I feel like it's a waste
00:20:24
of Jeremy Allen White to to have him be the voice of a character
00:20:29
who frankly annoyed me in in the clone wars.
00:20:33
But the way they're describing it, it seems like he's going to
00:20:35
have a bigger role. It seems like he's going to be
00:20:37
more charming and and lovable, which really is just Jeremy
00:20:42
Allen White in general, because Jeremy Allen White is a very
00:20:44
charming, easy to watch guy. I don't know, him being
00:20:48
gladiator in, in in the arena with like being Jabba's son.
00:20:53
It's interesting to see where they're gonna go with that.
00:20:55
I just, I don't want it to be cheesy the way that he was in,
00:20:58
in the show, you know, like that was very cheesy and meant for
00:21:01
kids. And it was like, Hey, let's make
00:21:02
a baby Hut so that kids will like like think this Hut is cute
00:21:05
And, and no, it's I, I, I hated his little whiny ass self.
00:21:09
So I'm, I'm hoping, but, but still like I, I'm hoping that it
00:21:14
is very much a redemption. They make him just like a
00:21:17
straight badass. And this is like also would be
00:21:20
the first time that we see a a Hut in a position where he's not
00:21:23
just, you know, slowly Slytherin and, you know, eating.
00:21:27
And, you know, every, every time we've seen a Hut in Star Wars so
00:21:30
far, they've been like, you know, like lazy monsters.
00:21:32
So. Dude frogs.
00:21:33
Carried around on barges. Yeah, like rolling on sale.
00:21:36
Most of them have been rolling on sale barges.
00:21:38
Look at look Book of Boba. You have two of them that show
00:21:40
the twins show up and they're literally having to be carried
00:21:43
around because they can't move. Jabba the Hutt has to be carried
00:21:45
around because he can't move. I mean, yet we did see him in
00:21:48
episode so 1 Slytherin around. But you know, even then I, I
00:21:54
want to see the huts in a different aspect, the same way
00:21:57
that we saw the Gomorians in a different, different light in
00:21:59
what was the season 2 Mandalorian.
00:22:01
You know, like I, I, I want to see, I want to see what a, what
00:22:05
a Hut looks like. That is a threat because the
00:22:09
huts are supposed to be the biggest threat in the, in the
00:22:10
universe, right? I want to see what a Hut is
00:22:13
capable of doing that makes people so afraid of.
00:22:16
Them and you're going to get. It totally on board with this,
00:22:19
and I love Stinky in Clone Wars, by the way.
00:22:23
And yeah, so I'm all my tacos. Take them, they're on the table.
00:22:28
So I'm looking at the chat and James immediately talking smack.
00:22:32
Junior has been out of the chat for wet like a month and he
00:22:34
comes in he goes. I'm looking forward to this
00:22:35
movie. James goes Junior relax.
00:22:37
Rd. of the Hut isn't considered a Kaiju.
00:22:40
He might be a Kaiju. Look at those muscles.
00:22:42
You know what I'm? Saying ripped.
00:22:43
He's he's, he's massive dude. Rhodo, the hut's got some green
00:22:46
milk protein shakes on tap. Getting those.
00:22:49
There you go, Getting those gains.
00:22:51
All right, OK, let's keep it going with some Star Wars, All
00:22:53
right? Will Hera finally give Thraum
00:22:55
the L he deserves? Oh, interesting.
00:22:58
In a red carpet interview, Winstead tease that General Hera
00:23:01
Sindula will be in on the action quite a bit more this season in
00:23:06
Ahsoka. All right, after playing a
00:23:08
strategic support role in Season 1, Hera's stepping into the
00:23:12
spotlight with more combat, leadership, and emotional
00:23:15
weight. With Ron's threat escalating in
00:23:17
the New Republic in Chaos, bands are speculating she'll lead a
00:23:21
major resistance push, possibly even commanding a new Ghost
00:23:25
crew. I like this.
00:23:26
Tacos on the table. Is Hera finally getting the
00:23:29
screen time she deserves, or is this just another tease from the
00:23:32
rebel sidelines? MMM Frey, what do you think
00:23:35
about Hera ah? You know, I hope she is.
00:23:37
I want to see the Hera that we had in.
00:23:41
I want her back. I want that.
00:23:43
Are you questioning my orders? Kind of like, I want that, that
00:23:46
hair. She seems too diplomatic in a
00:23:49
soaker. Or she has been like, oh, well,
00:23:51
you know, we got to go back. We got to do things and she's
00:23:53
got her son now. And it's like, look, you let
00:23:55
Ezra get into so much crap when he was your son's age, girl,
00:24:00
look who you have become. Like she has the title of
00:24:04
general for a reason. Like how do you go from just
00:24:07
piloting your own ship to a general in an army like.
00:24:10
Let's see how she go up some stuff.
00:24:12
Yeah, I'm always done. Blow up the right stuff in the
00:24:14
right place. Yeah, and, and that's actually
00:24:15
something that I, that I was thinking about right now was,
00:24:19
you know, hair is now a general. So you know, you she's had an
00:24:23
entire journey and, and the fact that they're recognizing her as
00:24:27
a general and that she has this, this command, it's I I want to
00:24:31
see more of her and and her in a position of power.
00:24:36
Yeah. Don't you feel like knowing that
00:24:37
bronze back is gonna really get her dope?
00:24:40
Absolutely. Yeah.
00:24:41
She's gonna. She's gonna be out for blood.
00:24:42
She's got a space coat. Is that what?
00:24:44
I Yes, it's Thor. Hey, James, I'm just gonna do
00:24:49
this out there. I'm gonna, I'm gonna bring it
00:24:50
all together. But Rd. of the huts got all
00:24:53
these muscles, got all the gains.
00:24:55
And we know Hera is single over here.
00:24:58
Maybe, maybe it's a tail thing. You never know.
00:25:00
Do not, do not put that kind of disrespect on Kanan Jairus name,
00:25:07
OK? Oh, Oh no, he didn't.
00:25:11
You know what? Even if he's a force ghost,
00:25:14
even. If he's a Force ghost, even if
00:25:15
cannons a Force ghost, he's not going to see what's going on.
00:25:19
All right? See what he did there?
00:25:20
You. Put some you put some respect on
00:25:21
Kane and Jairus's name, OK? I got jokes.
00:25:23
All right, Transition to the download.
00:25:25
We're starting the pot, spilled the tea, and we'll never Unsee a
00:25:30
buff Rhoda the Hut. Unless you're Harris and Dula,
00:25:33
now's the time to leave the rumors behind and plug into the
00:25:37
download. So, so before I hit the button,
00:25:43
Jen, you make fun of me for like doing behind the scenes stuff.
00:25:46
He literally read the transition as a line.
00:25:48
I know, I know. Oh God, let's.
00:25:54
Talk about it after the show. Let's go into this.
00:26:04
That's absolutely terrible umm. So for more news, trailers,
00:26:09
reactions, check out the distance earnings in post.
00:26:11
Let us know what you're nerding out on.
00:26:13
We want to talk about all the things you guys want to talk
00:26:16
about. So let's jump into the first
00:26:17
story here because I am ready to slay all day the way that demon
00:26:22
Slayer has Ladies and gentlemen, demon Slayer Infinity castle is
00:26:26
now the highest grossing international movie ever in the
00:26:29
US, surpassing spirited away. The anime epic continues to
00:26:32
dominate the emotional stakes in jaw jaw popping animation.
00:26:35
Tanjiro really sliced through all of the competition and I'm
00:26:39
all for it. I still haven't watched this
00:26:41
movie and I really need to. I haven't gone to the movies at
00:26:44
all, but I it's I have not seen any movies that I want to see.
00:26:47
That's kind of where I'm at in life right now.
00:26:50
I get it. Yeah, I haven't seen it either,
00:26:51
but I wasn't planning on watching it.
00:26:53
I haven't seen the others so. Yeah, I, I want to see this.
00:26:56
I definitely want to see this. But at even at that, I'm very
00:26:59
happy that it's, it's been so well received.
00:27:02
Highest grossing international movie ever.
00:27:05
Ever. That's so nuts.
00:27:06
Oh, Chasey said it was so good. I'm going to take your word for
00:27:10
it. I do need to go see it though.
00:27:12
I, it's, it's not not again, not that I don't want to go see it.
00:27:15
It's more that between, you know, the last month has been
00:27:18
nuts between like 3 different cons and my sister's wedding and
00:27:22
I just have not had time to do anything so.
00:27:24
Is that you went and called my sister's wedding.
00:27:26
Yeah, it's a movie. I went to go see my sister's
00:27:28
wedding. OK anime fans in the chat.
00:27:30
So tell me, do you have to watch the entire series to see the
00:27:34
movie that's in theaters or is enough to like dive into this
00:27:38
movie that's Infinity Castle that's in theaters and go watch
00:27:42
that separately. So let us know I.
00:27:44
Was gonna say I'll tell you. Oh well, yeah, we'll let the
00:27:46
chat know. I'm not gonna jump into that.
00:27:47
So let's let's jump into the next.
00:27:49
Toilet for them. Andy Well, I'm gonna jump into
00:27:54
the next story here, so staying in the realm of anime because
00:27:59
we're splintered but strong. Netflix has renewed Splinter
00:28:02
Cell death watch for season 2. Keeping Sam Fischer S stealth
00:28:05
saga alive. The animated series blends
00:28:07
espionage, action and tech paranoia with slick visuals.
00:28:11
The real question does going stealth have any side effects
00:28:14
besides being awesome? I heard this is really good.
00:28:16
Same. I've never seen it.
00:28:18
I was like, I don't know what you're right here, So I just
00:28:20
made something. Ah, no, it does look awesome.
00:28:22
I love that picture. I'm like, oh, I might want to
00:28:24
watch this. Yeah, I'm.
00:28:26
I'm a fan of the games. Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell is a
00:28:29
really good game, so I'm very interested in seeing how well
00:28:34
the series is. I was I was unaware that it was
00:28:36
on Netflix so I need to watch out.
00:28:37
Oh. There you go.
00:28:39
I I was watching Comic book Nation, comicbook.com and Matt,
00:28:43
you know, shout out to Matt, Matt Aguilar, Matt Swaggilar,
00:28:46
Matt Swagger. He was talking about the
00:28:49
Splinter Cell death watch and he said it was amazing.
00:28:52
So that got me excited and they were showing the clips and
00:28:54
talking about it, and they said this is an adoption that that
00:28:57
makes sense. So I'm like, oh, OK, cool.
00:28:59
I like it. I'm gonna watch it.
00:29:00
Absolutely. So let's let's jump into the
00:29:04
next one. Keep it moving here, upside
00:29:07
down, right side up. Stranger Things Season 5 will
00:29:10
finally reveal the origin of the Upside Down, delivering
00:29:13
long-awaited answers as the series wraps.
00:29:16
Meanwhile, the Duffer Brothers confirmed the upcoming spin off
00:29:19
will feature new characters and a clean slate.
00:29:22
Calling it so different from Star Wars.
00:29:24
OK, Hawking Hawkings is closing, but the universe is expanding.
00:29:29
Also, did you guys hear this whole rumor going down?
00:29:33
I think they just announced it today that they're putting the
00:29:36
season finale in theaters. You know, I heard that.
00:29:39
I heard they weren't going to do that.
00:29:41
Yeah. So.
00:29:41
We're not. Yeah, I'd heard that too.
00:29:43
What I heard as of this morning is they are doing a same day
00:29:48
release. So they're going to put it on
00:29:49
Netflix, but then give people the option to still go watch it
00:29:52
in theaters if they want to. And I think that's a smart play
00:29:55
on on their end because they've been doing that with with K Pop
00:29:58
Demon Hunters. And I think that they are,
00:30:01
they're betting on the chance that there are enough people
00:30:04
that want a cinematic experience for that season finale that they
00:30:08
will go and pay for it. And mainly just because K Pop
00:30:11
Demon Hunters has proven that if they have something on Netflix
00:30:13
and they give you the option to go see it in theaters, a lot of
00:30:16
people will still do it. Interesting.
00:30:18
Well, the good thing about that, I mean, Netflix is great.
00:30:20
Seeing it at home, you know, on Netflix and chill with the best
00:30:23
of them. But, you know, having a shared
00:30:24
experience of seeing something in theaters, Yeah, together with
00:30:28
other, you know, like minded fans that also maybe want a
00:30:31
Netflix and chill. I don't know where this is
00:30:33
going, but having, you know, that kind of shared experience
00:30:36
with people is great and Netflix is addressing that.
00:30:39
So good for Netflix. Absolutely like I said, I I
00:30:41
think it's AI think it's a smart play on their end because it's a
00:30:44
way for them to get something in theaters to make a rap ton of
00:30:47
money doing it, but also give people the option of well, if I
00:30:50
don't want to go pay money for it, I can still watch it, you
00:30:52
know, on Netflix. Let's move on to the next story
00:30:56
here. So Olympian upgrade Kate
00:31:00
McKinnon joins Percy Jackson and The Olympian season 3 as
00:31:04
Aphrodite of all people expect divine chaos and comedic flair
00:31:08
at camp half blood. Also, do we think that she is
00:31:12
going to be what is it ugly, Ugly Aphrodite or what was it?
00:31:17
Weird. Weird, weird Aphrodite, You
00:31:19
think we're going to? We're going to get a weird
00:31:21
Aphrodite. I whatever she does, she commits
00:31:25
to it. And so I really feel like she's
00:31:27
going to be, she'll be like, I love, love.
00:31:30
I love, love. And then but it'll be like,
00:31:32
really, it'll go wrong. I mean, it'll just go wrong.
00:31:35
And yeah. And there's a scene like they're
00:31:38
in the books. Aphrodite and Aries are trying
00:31:42
to get like, you know, get away so they can have a love nest and
00:31:46
stuff. And it's part of the plot in
00:31:48
Season 3, so I won't say that much more So.
00:31:51
And there's an interesting scene there and I'm like, it's gonna
00:31:53
be really interesting to see the guy that played Aries in Season
00:31:56
1 and her try to have chemistry. The guy who played, I'm looking
00:32:01
forward to that. The guy who played Aries in
00:32:02
season 1 AKA Edge AKA yeah Edge plays plays Aries in Percy
00:32:11
Jackson and the Olympians. James, if you haven't seen that.
00:32:13
Yeah, Adam Copeland, Adam. Guy.
00:32:14
I'm on it, I'm on it. I gotcha.
00:32:16
I I love that Adam Copeland took that role because he fits Aries
00:32:20
so well. Especially that version.
00:32:23
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He's a.
00:32:26
Straight rock star. Well, love goddess with SNL
00:32:29
energy guys, yes please. I I and I and I feel like that
00:32:32
actually is exactly what she is. I mean, she's going to be the
00:32:36
love goddess with all of the comedic timing and all of like
00:32:40
the weird SNL energy. And it's I'm all for that.
00:32:44
I can't. I made the joke about weird
00:32:47
Aphrodite but it's just because again, she is so good at taking
00:32:51
roles and making their making them hers.
00:32:53
Yeah, I was going to say, So they've got who's it?
00:32:56
Jason Menzukis is Dionysus and then her.
00:33:01
It's like they're getting off filter or like very specialized
00:33:05
comedians to come in and do these God's roles.
00:33:09
And I find that I find it exactly what they should be
00:33:13
doing. But I also find it extremely
00:33:15
hilarious. And I feel like Zeus needs to be
00:33:17
like some major comedian that's like crazy pant comedian.
00:33:21
Like, I don't know who they'd get.
00:33:22
Bert. Bert Kreischer.
00:33:23
Oh my God, Bert Kreischer is Zeus would be ridiculous.
00:33:27
That'd be a good. Zeus, he would have to make sure
00:33:29
that he has no shirt on the entire time.
00:33:31
Right. Yeah, no, he wouldn't.
00:33:32
He'd just be wearing like white jeans with like a gold belt or
00:33:36
something and just walking around with like a, a gold Solo
00:33:40
cup because, you know, you can't have a red Solo cup and like,
00:33:42
it'd just be Bert Kreischer. But just just like, give him a
00:33:46
white, like like paint his beard white, but like Bedazzle.
00:33:49
It exactly exactly. But dazzles in in his beard and
00:33:52
it'd just be like, yeah, the baby gods did this.
00:33:55
Yeah, like, yeah, then he could even, like, shout out his
00:33:58
daughters. It would be hilarious.
00:34:01
They won't do it, but it would be hilarious if they did.
00:34:04
I would pay for that. But that in the theater.
00:34:06
I would pay money to see Bert Kreischer as Seuss.
00:34:10
Well, let's if nobody else has any any any comments on this,
00:34:14
we'll move on. Moving on.
00:34:15
All right, let's move on. Lucas unplugged.
00:34:18
George Lucas says he's moved past Star Wars after Disney took
00:34:23
control. He's focused on building his
00:34:24
museum and living his life beyond the Galaxy, far, far away
00:34:27
from Skywalker Ranch to art curator.
00:34:30
George is still a director. True.
00:34:32
Yeah. He, because they, when we were
00:34:34
at La Comic Con, they revealed the, the Lucas Museum and we, we
00:34:40
got a chance to go and like take a look at it.
00:34:41
It's pretty cool. But it's also like still in its
00:34:43
early stages. So they had a bunch of curators
00:34:45
that were there showing off a couple of the pieces and stuff.
00:34:48
It's it was pretty cool. That's not when is it opening?
00:34:50
Like next year, year after. I want to say it's supposed to
00:34:52
be in like February. Oh, wow.
00:34:54
Yeah. So it's it's like soon.
00:34:55
Interesting. All right, All right, George,
00:34:57
I'm OK with that. I see you, George.
00:34:59
I see you and I see everything that you're doing, my friend.
00:35:02
And I don't know if he's like, over Star Wars or like,
00:35:06
completely, like, let go of Star Wars, but it's healthy that he
00:35:09
says it. You know, he's like, all right,
00:35:11
I put it. I gave it.
00:35:12
I sold it. I gave it to Disney.
00:35:13
And I put, like, my protege Dave Filoni, you know, kind of there
00:35:17
to spearhead things. So there you go.
00:35:19
Let it go. Move it on.
00:35:20
Yeah. So the thing that I think that
00:35:22
is, aren't we coming up to where he will have not been a part of
00:35:25
Star Wars longer than he was part of Star Wars?
00:35:28
Yes, we are. We're kind of officially in that
00:35:31
era. The thing is, is that him and
00:35:32
Filoni still work together when it comes to creating story and
00:35:36
seeing where it goes. Like, baloney still gets input
00:35:38
from Lucas when it comes to this stuff.
00:35:40
Lucas isn't, like, heavily involved, but a lot of it is.
00:35:42
Hey, here's my idea. What do you think?
00:35:43
Oh, yeah, I like that. But what if we did this?
00:35:45
You know, it's things like that, Yeah.
00:35:47
Well, it's cool that he's still a second voice or somebody, but
00:35:50
yeah, I, you know, let George. George.
00:35:52
Yeah, let George, George. Well, Swamp Thing sprouts.
00:35:56
James Gunn shared a hopeful update on DC's Swamp Thing
00:36:00
movie, confirming it's still in active development.
00:36:02
He emphasized the film's horror roots and tease the tone.
00:36:05
That's dark, poetic and strange. The fight for the green is
00:36:09
getting closer and it's a whole mood and I'm I'm in for all of.
00:36:13
It. Yeah.
00:36:14
I think it's gonna be really cool.
00:36:16
I'm not. I've always thought that Swamp
00:36:19
Thing was such an interesting character.
00:36:21
Yeah. And so I really want to see
00:36:24
somebody do justice to him. Well, the TV show was really
00:36:27
well done, it just it came at the wrong time.
00:36:29
Yeah, it was on DC Universe right there.
00:36:33
Streaming platform. Yeah.
00:36:34
And it was just kind of like it was on an app that just didn't,
00:36:38
didn't do well. I had it because I was, you
00:36:41
know, DC. Yeah.
00:36:42
So I wanted all that. I think we reported on it back
00:36:44
on Hurt and the Hardly Heroes days.
00:36:46
Yeah. And yeah, I mean, like, I
00:36:48
thought it was the show itself was really good.
00:36:51
I think it's on HBO Max now. You know, I was going to say,
00:36:54
this may be one of those shows that like has a second life,
00:36:58
like on a different streaming platform.
00:37:00
That being said, HBO Max is not it.
00:37:03
You know, Max has a library of things, but they don't promote
00:37:07
things. It's just like here it is, come
00:37:09
get it if you want it but like it just sits.
00:37:11
Yeah, absolutely there. And there's just yeah, because
00:37:13
they're not promoting anything on it.
00:37:15
It's just, you know, they're they're losing so much out of
00:37:19
such a well done property. And and it's just I feel like, I
00:37:23
feel like if they were to promote that, they could
00:37:25
probably use that as lore building because it was really
00:37:28
good horror show and it was really well done and people were
00:37:31
upset that it didn't get another season.
00:37:33
But it's like, yeah, I, I feel like if James Gunn really wanted
00:37:36
to, because it's such a standalone thing, he could go in
00:37:38
and say this is now Canon and, and, and use that to build on
00:37:43
the lore that's already there. What if James Gunn gets to like
00:37:49
the Dark Justice League before Marvel gets to Midnight Suns?
00:37:53
I could totally see James gonna be like, I'm gonna beat you to
00:37:56
this. I would so love that just
00:37:58
because the idea of Dark Justice League coming out before
00:38:03
Midnight Suns, because Midnight Suns isn't such like not
00:38:05
turmoil, but just we never hear anything about it.
00:38:08
It's always rumors, there's always speculation.
00:38:10
We still don't have have the majority of the characters we
00:38:13
need introduced in the universe, even though Feige keeps saying
00:38:16
not Feige. Sorry.
00:38:17
Yeah, Feige keeps saying that. I I get, I get him and Filoni
00:38:21
mixed up every now Feige keeps saying that he wants to
00:38:24
reintroduce Ghostwriter and he wants to bring in Blade and
00:38:27
everything like that, but it just still hasn't happened.
00:38:30
So I don't I don't know. It's interesting to see where
00:38:32
that's gonna go, but I, I, I yeah, we're we're we're
00:38:35
speculating even more. Oh, man.
00:38:39
All right, Nightfall Rises. The upcoming Batman Nightfall
00:38:44
animated movie, will feature Tim Drake's Robin.
00:38:47
Screenwriter Jace Ricci confirmed the fan favorite
00:38:51
character will suit up. So why is everyone afraid of
00:38:53
Robin in short pants? Seriously.
00:38:56
Seriously. Yeah.
00:38:57
Like, because Tim Drake Oh, just so happens to be the one that
00:39:01
doesn't wear short pants. Convenient.
00:39:04
Convenient. Convenient.
00:39:05
I am so ready for one. Tim Drake is one of my my
00:39:11
favorite versions of Robin to begin with.
00:39:12
I do love, I absolutely love Dick Grayson.
00:39:16
He is my favorite Robin. But Tim Drake is close 2nd and
00:39:19
followed by Damian Wayne is finally starting to creep his
00:39:22
way back in. But I mean, like Tim Drake, just
00:39:25
because when he grows up, even before he becomes Red Robin,
00:39:28
when he grows up and he's got that Bo staff and he's got like
00:39:32
the armor, he's just beating the shit out of everybody.
00:39:35
And he's and he's such a badass for like the acrobatics that he
00:39:38
has after like just training with Tim with, with Dick Grayson
00:39:42
and just getting better at what he does.
00:39:44
I am a massive fan of Tim Drake's version of Robin.
00:39:47
So I mean, I am happy that they're choosing this version.
00:39:51
I believe he was also the Robin during the Nightfall storyline
00:39:55
anyways. Yeah, he was.
00:39:56
Yeah. So it made I just, I was just
00:39:58
like, mom, really. Really.
00:40:00
But you know what? The short pants will live on in
00:40:03
Batman 66 though. He's the most like adjusted
00:40:06
Robin, like he's the one with the least amount of issues so I
00:40:11
think they should introduce him. Yeah, they were having a caught,
00:40:14
like, I don't know, I guess there's something like
00:40:15
somebody's gonna take over the cowl or whatever.
00:40:18
And they were like, who would you pick or whatever?
00:40:21
And I'm like, well, Nightwing's already done it, so I don't
00:40:23
think he would do it and he wouldn't do it.
00:40:25
I think Tim Drake would be the one that would actually be the
00:40:29
best successor to Batman. It's probably gonna be Damien,
00:40:32
but it should be Tim. Tim is also probably next to
00:40:37
Dick Grayson, one of the best detectives out of all the people
00:40:40
in in that group of people together.
00:40:42
He's also the smartest 1. So like Tim Drake is the tech
00:40:45
guy out of everybody in that in that whole group of people.
00:40:48
So it's like he's a combination of Alfred and Batman without all
00:40:53
of the dad baggage, even though, you know, his dad was like a
00:40:56
criminal and they had they had all this these.
00:40:58
Yeah. I mean, he does have kind of
00:40:59
daddy issues. But I mean, at the same time,
00:41:01
he's so kind of to steal the words from Jen again, so well
00:41:04
adjusted for who he is. Tim Drake is definitely.
00:41:08
I agree with you, Jen. I feel like Tim Drake would be
00:41:11
the the best successor to Batman next.
00:41:13
I mean, yeah, 'cause Dick Grayson already has his own
00:41:16
beat. He doesn't need to be Batman.
00:41:17
Though, and he's done it. He did it.
00:41:19
Oh, I don't want to spoil anything for Knife.
00:41:21
I'll never mind. For those of you who don't know,
00:41:25
go read Nightfall. That's all we're going to leave
00:41:27
it at. Some of it's really ridiculous.
00:41:29
I mean, honestly, some of it is really ridiculous, but the end,
00:41:33
it's worth it. Yeah, it's freaking worth it.
00:41:35
You. Also get the most formidable
00:41:37
version of Bane out of out of anything.
00:41:39
And there's that introduction of Bane was absolutely insane.
00:41:43
And he's so new at that point that Warner Brothers decided to
00:41:47
make him, you know, muscle brained idiot.
00:41:49
When they put him in the movie as they did, they were he's
00:41:51
really buffed. So we're going to make him an
00:41:52
idiot that's on a bunch of a bunch of no, it's.
00:41:55
A luchador mask. He's the only person that ever
00:41:57
outsmart Batman the way that is. Anyways, let's, let's move on
00:42:01
Alias alert, because yeah, alias.
00:42:05
Nevermind. Marvel exec Brad Winterbaum gave
00:42:08
a cryptic update on the return of Jessica Jones, saying there
00:42:11
always is a chance she could reappear.
00:42:14
With Daredevil Born Again reshuffling its cast and tone,
00:42:17
fans are watching closely for signs of Kristen Ritter S
00:42:19
comeback. Don't call it a comeback
00:42:21
because, well, reasons. I like this.
00:42:23
I you know, I really loved the Jessica Jones series on on
00:42:28
Netflix. I mean, it's now it's on Disney
00:42:30
Plus, but I loved it. I really loved it.
00:42:33
If that season was probably one of the best seasons of Marvel, I
00:42:38
think hands down. And just everything she went
00:42:41
through, it was just oh, so psychologically torturing.
00:42:45
And I mean, it was just amazing. So I'm happy she's coming back.
00:42:48
I love that she's going to be in Daredevil Born Again season 2
00:42:52
and hopefully she'll get some sort of special or maybe she'll
00:42:55
get her own series because that would be freaking awesome.
00:42:57
Yeah, I mean, the way that they introduced Purple Man, I've been
00:43:00
saying for a while that we need not only because who plays
00:43:03
Purple Man? We need Purple Man back because
00:43:05
he is such a formidable villain for what he's capable of doing.
00:43:10
You know, basically being able to control people, like mind
00:43:12
control people without even thinking about it.
00:43:14
Like, we, we, we, we need more Purple Man in this world.
00:43:17
And I just need more Jessica Jones, the relationship she has
00:43:20
with all of the characters. And I want to see her in Luke
00:43:23
Cage, like officially together. Officially together like Rhoda
00:43:27
the Hut and Harris and doula, that kind of official like ship
00:43:30
them. Stop trying to make rhodula
00:43:35
happened. Oh, hey, see you shipped it.
00:43:38
Oh, God, you'll ship it. Now You have to give me a second
00:43:41
because now I got to go write that down because sadly, that's
00:43:43
going to be the name of the episode.
00:43:44
Oh. Shoot, I don't remember what I
00:43:47
said. Rhodula what?
00:43:48
Was it Rhodula? That's it.
00:43:50
Rhodula. Sorry, Rhodula.
00:43:54
Stop trying to make rhodula a thing.
00:43:57
A thing. Kind of like stop trying to make
00:43:59
fetch a thing. Exactly.
00:44:02
That's the name of the. And that's a callback from the
00:44:04
Friday. Right, that's exactly why I
00:44:08
brought that up, because it was a callback from Friday's
00:44:10
Friday's game night. All right, let's, let's, let's
00:44:13
move on to the next story here. If this new prison break doesn't
00:44:18
come with the VPN and the firewall, what are we even?
00:44:21
What are we even escaping from? Let's, let's, what's the point?
00:44:23
What are we escaping from? The escape artists are back, but
00:44:26
this time, the walls might be digital.
00:44:28
Hulu's prison break reboot promises a new kind of prison,
00:44:31
and fans are already decoding the tagline.
00:44:34
If they break out of the cloud, we riot.
00:44:37
We really do. I'm so.
00:44:39
So are you in a prison of your mind?
00:44:41
Is that what they're doing? They're trying to be smart like
00:44:43
that. So what they're doing is they're
00:44:44
taking Page from Vision Quest because, you know, that's all in
00:44:48
Vision's head and he's doing the robot peyote.
00:44:50
Now they're actually doing real peyote and they think they're in
00:44:55
the Matrix. And then we see Keanu Reeves
00:44:57
will stop by for a second and then that's when they escape.
00:45:01
But then they realize they're not really escaped.
00:45:03
And it's like that thing. What was that movie with Harry
00:45:05
Styles and Florence Pugh where she was in a simulation the
00:45:09
whole time? And I know a movie you're
00:45:11
talking about. Yeah, that's that's the one for
00:45:14
all of you out there, all the all the people who've been
00:45:16
waiting for this their entire life.
00:45:17
That's the one where forints He was naked in that movie.
00:45:20
Yeah, that's true. She is naked in that movie.
00:45:21
Yeah, don't worry, darling. Don't worry darling, that's.
00:45:24
It. Don't worry, darling.
00:45:25
That's it. Yeah.
00:45:26
Directed by Olivia Olivia Wilde, right?
00:45:30
Yep. Yep.
00:45:31
And caused the downfall of her marriage.
00:45:33
Anyway, moving on. One second here and and yeah,
00:45:39
you're, you're not wrong. It did caused the fall of her of
00:45:41
her entire marriage. Will Coogler make us believe?
00:45:45
He's gonna make me a believer with the way I'm hearing about
00:45:47
this. Ryan Coogler says The X-Files
00:45:49
reboot is rooted in his childhood fears and fascination
00:45:52
with the unknown. He's also teasing a genre
00:45:55
defying cast that blends legacy and new blood.
00:45:58
If Motor and Scully had a baby with Black Mirror, Coogler's
00:46:01
X-Files might be it. I am very much excited for this.
00:46:06
I, I love the the idea of Ryan Coogler getting his hands on The
00:46:10
X-Files and and I love it. But like somebody's finally
00:46:14
doing something legacy with it rather than it being like, let's
00:46:17
try and do another season of X-Files with Molder and Scully.
00:46:20
No, let's, let's do legacy. Like you can have this be
00:46:23
exactly what it is. It's 3040 years after the events
00:46:27
of the original show and it's new agents that are in the
00:46:30
agency, you know, like the whole show.
00:46:32
The premise of the show doesn't say that has to it has to be
00:46:35
Molder and Scully. Now what I would like is either
00:46:38
one of them coming back as like a senior agent or maybe even a
00:46:42
director, right? Like that would be cool.
00:46:44
Like you know, you have. I honestly would like I I
00:46:48
probably want Scully to come back and be be a director, be
00:46:51
like the director of the FBI of that division, but she was the
00:46:54
smarter one of the two anyways. So she's she's gonna be the one
00:46:57
that would do would be that. I could see them finding, like,
00:47:00
a case that links back to Mulder and Scully, and then they have
00:47:04
to bring one of them on to try and, like, solve whatever murder
00:47:07
mystery is going on. And whether it's reluctant or
00:47:10
not, it's gonna be like Jurassic World when they, when they bring
00:47:13
back the original cast of Jurassic Park.
00:47:15
It's gonna be like that. Yeah, like I said, and I'm OK
00:47:17
with it. Yeah.
00:47:18
Like I, I, I wouldn't want like, Oh yeah, we need to have them as
00:47:22
predominant characters. Like again, you have one of them
00:47:25
as like maybe a senior official, somebody that have to go like go
00:47:28
through or something like that, that you get like maybe every
00:47:30
couple of episodes for like a scene.
00:47:32
I miss X. Five.
00:47:33
Yeah, I kind of feel like Mulder should be like the new Smoking
00:47:37
Man. Nice.
00:47:39
I like it. I like it, but instead of
00:47:41
smoking he just eats potato chips.
00:47:43
Yeah, he's Nate. He's the vape man.
00:47:45
He's the vape man, vape man. He's the vape man.
00:47:52
We've sliced through the headlines, bowed to the comedy
00:47:56
gods, and maybe caught Jessica's eye.
00:47:58
But now it's time to slow the scroll.
00:48:00
Let's zoom out and dig in. These are the stories shaping
00:48:03
the fandom, stirring debate, and for a matter of fact, trending
00:48:06
up. Ladies and gentlemen, let's get
00:48:07
into the trend Up. Is this mutant foresight or a
00:48:10
prequel to franchise fatigue? Marvel Studios is going all in
00:48:14
on X-Men 97, with executive producer Brad Winterbaum
00:48:18
confirming that seasons four and five are already in development.
00:48:22
Despite Season 2 still being months away, the move suggests
00:48:25
Marvel sees the animated revival as a cornerstone of its
00:48:29
multiversal strategy. That fast 10 times.
00:48:32
For a long time fans, this feels like vindication.
00:48:35
The show's first season was a love letter to the original, and
00:48:39
its success proved that nostalgia can still drive Canon.
00:48:42
But the early renewal raises questions about grief, Like
00:48:45
creative flexibility. There's also the risk of
00:48:48
overextension. Marvel's track record with
00:48:51
multiversal storytelling has been hit or miss lately, and
00:48:55
some viewers worry that X-Men 97 could be burdened with too much
00:48:59
narrative weight too soon. But even under the Disney
00:49:02
umbrella, not every franchise gets the same vote of
00:49:06
confidence. While Marvel mutants are
00:49:08
multiplying, 1 Legacy's sci-fi reboot just got derezzed.
00:49:13
Tron Aries has positioned was positioned as a sleek reboot for
00:49:16
the franchise with Jared Leto can change the picture, leading
00:49:20
the charge and Tron 4 quietly in early development.
00:49:24
But the After Aries underperformed at the box
00:49:27
office, Disney has reportedly pulled the plug on the sequel.
00:49:30
The reversal highlights the risk of premature franchising.
00:49:34
Studios often green light sequels to signal confidence,
00:49:37
but when the current installment stumbles, it can feel like a
00:49:40
mist. Fan appetite.
00:49:42
In this case, the casting of Leto sparked mixed reactions
00:49:45
from the start, while others questioned whether Tron still
00:49:48
had cultural relevance. The bigger issue Disney may have
00:49:51
underestimated how much the fandom had evolved.
00:49:54
Tron has always been niche and and rebooting it for a new
00:49:59
generation requires more than neon visuals and star power.
00:50:02
Without a clear emotional hook or fresh thematic angle, Airy
00:50:07
struggled to connect with Antron.
00:50:08
Bohr paid the price. Is fan fatigue a real thing or
00:50:12
our fans demanding quality now, would you say?
00:50:16
I think that's, that's really what it is.
00:50:18
I think in the end, fans are tired of just being pushed, you
00:50:22
know, like they having things pushed to them that are just
00:50:24
like, you know, here's a franchise that everybody loves
00:50:29
the idea of, but we're just gonna push things out.
00:50:31
Like going with X-Men as a concept, right?
00:50:35
Starting off with X-Men on the on this X-Men 97 was an absolute
00:50:39
hit, right? Beau De Mio did a lot of amazing
00:50:44
work in what he did. Now, of course, problematic had
00:50:46
everything that he did on there. They, they let him go, but then
00:50:49
they brought back Larry Houston for Season 2 and and that's a
00:50:53
big deal. Larry Houston, you know, the
00:50:56
original architect of the original show.
00:50:59
So I have faith in what they're doing with X-Men.
00:51:02
X-Men, they, they strike a balance of the comics of, of
00:51:06
taking comic book storylines and mixing them in in a way where we
00:51:10
get the storylines we want. It doesn't feel like it's
00:51:12
overdone. And at the same time, we're
00:51:14
getting a very quality love letter to X-Men, You know,
00:51:18
whereas with Tron, my biggest issue with Tron is there's not
00:51:23
enough love put into the series and there's not enough care to.
00:51:28
It's kind of what I was talking about last week, where people
00:51:31
are tired of giant spectacles with no story.
00:51:34
People want story X-Men. What makes it so good is that
00:51:38
the story writing is second to none.
00:51:40
Whereas with Tron, they're not focusing enough on the story and
00:51:44
telling the right stories for people to care about it.
00:51:47
You know, like everybody was going into Tron Aries expecting
00:51:50
it to be this profound commentary on AI and the future
00:51:55
of the world and, and kind of the state that we're in right
00:51:58
now. And it just ended up falling
00:51:59
flat and it and it had no commentary on it whatsoever.
00:52:02
And I think part of that is also Disney in fear of what's what's
00:52:06
possible and not taking the risks and just going well, Tron
00:52:10
legacy did OK. So we're gonna do Tron Aries.
00:52:12
And again, it's not Jared Leto. And as much as a lot of people
00:52:15
are, you know, have their issues with Jared Leto, from what I
00:52:18
understand, Jared Leto was not the problem with the movie, The
00:52:21
movie itself, the writing and the movie was the problem with
00:52:23
the movie. And, and I think just people are
00:52:25
tired of it. People are tired of giving all
00:52:28
these studios a pass just because you gave us more of a
00:52:31
property, but you gave us a property with no soul.
00:52:34
So I, I've said my piece. You guys go ahead.
00:52:37
Let me chime in and just comparing X-Men 97 to Tron
00:52:41
Aries, you could see what they're doing wrong.
00:52:44
Like X-Men 97, it's nostalgic. It hits all the beats.
00:52:48
Everything we love about the original is brought back, but
00:52:52
refreshed, right and and, and made for an older audience.
00:52:56
Tron Aries, it felt like they hid the story too much and
00:52:59
hoping that people would just grab onto it because it's
00:53:02
nostalgic. But you know, they didn't tell
00:53:04
like, I don't know even know who Jared Leto is.
00:53:07
I know he he may come into the into the real world, but like,
00:53:10
OK, what is it? What does that you know, we got
00:53:12
robots. I got a vacuum.
00:53:14
He's a robot. Is he AII don't know.
00:53:16
He knows he knows how to crawl around the room.
00:53:18
Is that is that Tron feels like Tron, but I don't know.
00:53:20
I I just don't think they sold this enough and they didn't put
00:53:22
enough marketing behind this and like I couldn't tell you one
00:53:26
other actor in this movie, one other character.
00:53:29
Well, Jeff Bridges. Jeff Bridges always makes it
00:53:32
into these movies somehow. And Hassan Minhaj was in the
00:53:34
movie in it, but I mean, like his character was so minor and
00:53:37
it's like Hassan Minaj. That's that's kind of a get for
00:53:39
as far as like comedians go and like a guy who was got a a lot
00:53:42
of screen presence, but it's like you didn't really do
00:53:44
anything with him. You made him kind of like the
00:53:45
bumbling guy on the side. And it's like, like, why not
00:53:47
Sacramento? Yeah, he is from Sacramento.
00:53:49
Why not bring back Flynn? I mean, the the legacy story
00:53:53
ended with Flynn. Why not bring Flynn back as as
00:53:58
even as an antagonist? Flip the story, flip the script,
00:54:01
make make Flynn. You know, he went from being
00:54:03
this total a narco, you know, just just just he was an
00:54:08
anarchist essentially. He's like, I don't I don't want
00:54:10
to live in this this world that we're in.
00:54:13
I live in a conex and I really just want to blow up the world,
00:54:16
even though I am the majority shareholder of the company that
00:54:19
I'm ruining, right? You make him the antagonist in
00:54:21
saying like, you know what, he turned a new leaf and now he is
00:54:24
the CEO of the company and he is forming AI after the experiences
00:54:29
that he had going into the grid. Now it's like, OK, well, now
00:54:32
we're going to take this AI and we're going to, we're going to
00:54:35
make Tron what it was originally meant to.
00:54:37
It is a program that protects the, the servers that we have
00:54:40
built, right? And I am creating Tron.
00:54:42
And in a blowback, Aries comes into the real world as an AI
00:54:47
protection program that becomes a person because technically he
00:54:50
would be an ISO. If you go into the lore of, of,
00:54:53
of Tron, of, of the Tron universe, right?
00:54:56
Because remember, Tron is an idea.
00:54:57
Now Tron is no longer a program. But that's the thing.
00:54:59
Like, is he a good guy? Is he a bad guy?
00:55:01
He jumped from, you know, the program into the real world.
00:55:04
Am I supposed to root for him? Am I supposed to rude against
00:55:08
him? I don't know.
00:55:09
They didn't tell me enough. Right, right.
00:55:10
And they just. Need a cool light cycle and
00:55:12
that's about it. And I think that's what they try
00:55:14
to do is they tried to sell you on the visual things on there.
00:55:17
And that's where I was saying is that's where people are are fed
00:55:20
up. They're tired of their what the
00:55:23
fan fatigue is in in all of this is people are tired of just give
00:55:28
me something that you want me to buy because I'm tired of that.
00:55:31
I'm tired of being shown, Hey, that's a cool light cycle.
00:55:34
But what else are you gonna give me?
00:55:36
Give me a good story because people go, when people go to the
00:55:39
movies, they want to see a good story.
00:55:40
I'm sorry, Jack. No, you're fine.
00:55:42
I was just wanted to let you finish.
00:55:44
You were on a roll, so I was just letting you finish, letting
00:55:46
you wear yourself out. So my thing, so OK, here's my
00:55:51
thing with X-Men 97. The only thing that I that I
00:55:56
question is how flexible are they going to be?
00:55:59
Like, yeah, season 1 was amazing, but they were tying up
00:56:02
a lot of loose ends. They were getting it to where it
00:56:05
needed to be to bring new stories into it.
00:56:08
And I feel like, you know, they did a really good job of that.
00:56:11
But Season 2, it would be the like the pivot it's gonna be,
00:56:15
hey, these are newer stories. How do you guys like these?
00:56:19
And I'm just like, Are you sure you want to do three additional
00:56:23
seasons without any additional fan feedback?
00:56:27
And that's kind of where I am with that the X-Men thing.
00:56:29
I'm so happy they're doing it. Don't get me wrong.
00:56:31
My little fangirl heart is just super excited about it.
00:56:35
But I'm just like, I feel like creative flexibility is a good
00:56:39
thing. And in animation you make a
00:56:42
mistake. You can't really fix it that
00:56:44
quickly. I mean, it takes a time.
00:56:46
So it takes a time. I don't know why I went Italian
00:56:49
there. But on the Tron thing, I think
00:56:52
really like the story said it like it's so niche that unless
00:56:56
you've seen all the rest of it and you know all the Flynn
00:57:00
legacy and you know about his son and you know all that,
00:57:03
people coming into Tron Aries will have no idea if they
00:57:06
haven't seen all the rest of it. And so I'm just like, and then
00:57:10
having Jared Leto, I was not gonna go see it because it had
00:57:13
Jared Leto in it. But that is because I don't like
00:57:16
Jared Leto. I have been very open and honest
00:57:18
that I dislike him and I have disliked him since he was in my
00:57:22
so-called life. OK, he was a teenager then.
00:57:24
This was the 90s. So I'm just saying I have had a
00:57:27
long hate relationship with Jared Leto.
00:57:29
So I wasn't gonna go see Tron Aries.
00:57:32
Now, I might have watched it, you know, when it came streaming
00:57:35
or whatever, but no, I wasn't. I I think that they just were
00:57:39
trying to drum up, you know, hype about it so people would
00:57:43
come see it and it failed miserably.
00:57:45
And I think, you know, Disney paid the price for that, so.
00:57:49
Again, I think part of it is also with them not tying it into
00:57:53
the greater lore. You know, it's, it's like we
00:57:55
want to do a standalone movie. We have this, this, this program
00:57:59
that came into the real world but doesn't really have anything
00:58:03
to do. And it's like you, you almost
00:58:05
left it on a cliffhanger for Legacy because what happened to
00:58:08
Sam? What happened to Kira?
00:58:09
Why? Yeah, At the end of the movie,
00:58:11
Kira literally did what they're trying to do with with Aries,
00:58:14
right. Kira as an ISO came out to the
00:58:16
real world. What were the implications of
00:58:18
that? You know what, what?
00:58:20
Why did you not tie up that story?
00:58:22
Why didn't you move into that? You know, again, what happened
00:58:25
to Sam? How come we don't know what
00:58:26
happened to Sam? There are story beats that were
00:58:28
already in play that they ignored.
00:58:31
And again, this is where you're just you're belittling the
00:58:34
intelligence of your audience. Like James did earlier with the
00:58:37
whole like Rd. of the Hut thing. The joke?
00:58:41
I'm. Elevating.
00:58:42
The road of the I'm I'm elevating.
00:58:43
I'm giving her a new storyline. Enough, enough, Kane and Jairus.
00:58:48
It's time to move on to space lugs.
00:58:50
Yes, to bigger and literally or to literally bigger and not so
00:58:55
better things. Oh God.
00:58:56
Once you go slugs. James, you.
00:58:59
You don't give two what you you. Literally Twilight do not have
00:59:04
good relationships with huts. Hey, man, times change, things
00:59:08
change, all right? Give love a.
00:59:10
Time. It's time for Twilight and Hut
00:59:13
relations to be reestablished. Yeah, exactly.
00:59:18
Oh man, so. So with that being said, do we
00:59:20
have any other thoughts before we move on to the next segment
00:59:23
here? I'm more interested, I'm more
00:59:26
interested in my robot vacuum than I am seeing Tron Aries now,
00:59:30
just because you talked so badly about it.
00:59:34
Have you even seen it? No, he hasn't.
00:59:37
Look at that. Look at his face.
00:59:39
He hasn't seen it yet. I did and that's why I'm like, I
00:59:42
almost feel like I wasted my money on that.
00:59:44
Threw your money in in the gutter?
00:59:45
Yeah, make sure you got some popcorn.
00:59:47
I mean, there's always that. It's just like I like I said, I
00:59:49
I was excited for it and, and it just it it, it didn't live up to
00:59:54
the hype that it kind of seemed like some people were hyping it
00:59:57
up to be to include my hero Kevin Smith, because he hyped
01:00:01
the hell out of it. And it was like, I don't know,
01:00:02
like visually, yeah, it's great. But just there's no story And,
01:00:05
and that's where I was let down with it.
01:00:06
It's it's just the story was not good all.
01:00:09
Right. Well, I guess Disney Plus it is.
01:00:11
Yeah, there we go. I'm wonderful.
01:00:13
Get it? Like what Chuck's saying if
01:00:14
we're going to get that right before Christmas.
01:00:16
Official Tron is Roomba. Yeah, That mean that might
01:00:19
actually be cool. That's the thing.
01:00:21
That's the a Roomba that has like the the neon lights on it
01:00:25
right? OK, the merch might be might be
01:00:28
way better than the movie. I feel like the whole reason
01:00:32
people started liking the movie was because of the video game.
01:00:36
So it's like, just, you know what?
01:00:37
How about this? Put out a video game?
01:00:39
Yeah, all right. We've served the bites
01:00:41
prematurely, franchised several IP, and gave opinions with a
01:00:45
dose of spice. Let's wrap this up with a geek
01:00:48
and update where cosplay gets sinister and the pop culture
01:00:52
pulse goes live all. Right.
01:01:03
Well, ladies and gentlemen, this weekend we had a whole bunch of
01:01:07
fun. We we went out to to another con
01:01:11
this weekend was sinister Halloween con in Sacramento and
01:01:15
we had a chance to go and hang out and take a whole bunch of
01:01:18
pictures and got a whole bunch of cosplay stuff.
01:01:21
But here to talk about the the entire con because they went
01:01:27
both days and went there. It's our good friends, our con
01:01:30
correspondents, our amazing, amazing con cosplay family.
01:01:36
Ladies and gentlemen, it's the De Long Fam cosplay.
01:01:45
Where's the sound? Lazy.
01:01:47
No hold. On Find the button, Phil, find
01:01:49
the button, Yeah. Sorry, I just realized I did
01:01:53
not. Load the video.
01:01:54
No, I loaded the video but I I realized I didn't turn off the
01:01:57
audio, I was just. About what you're doing right
01:02:01
now and we're stalling, yeah. I was just about to turn it on
01:02:04
and I was like oh wait a minute the audio is still on let me go
01:02:06
and turn that off before I put it on the screen the 1st.
01:02:08
Holder So I always thought it was called sinister con.
01:02:11
It's now called Sinister Halloween con just.
01:02:14
So it's sinister, but they have two cons a year.
01:02:17
Their June 1 is Sinister Creature con.
01:02:20
They're October shows since your Halloween con.
01:02:23
So 2 shows a year. Nice, there we go.
01:02:26
And Bruce one. Yeah, Bruce one, of course.
01:02:28
We uphold our title as dominating the cosplay contest
01:02:32
yet again. But seven for him.
01:02:36
I don't know how many of our sisters we have between now and
01:02:39
October of 22. We've won everyone, though.
01:02:42
Wow. Yeah, that's what happens when
01:02:44
your dad. Makes that's impressive.
01:02:45
Yeah, when your dad backhand makes costumes.
01:02:48
All right, so tell us about the cosplay in the.
01:02:52
So Bruce was 0. Clearly.
01:02:54
The the dog from Nightmare, He tried to kill everyone with his
01:02:57
tail. Yeah.
01:02:58
He did, yeah. Not on purpose, though.
01:03:00
He was like, you know, trying to get used to the thing.
01:03:02
He's a ghost after all. The Longs Great I wasn't said
01:03:05
the Delongs were were punk and rockabilly versions of Jack and
01:03:11
Sally, which was kind of cool. Nice.
01:03:12
Everyone lived it that it was amazing.
01:03:15
The people who were like God understood that we took them and
01:03:19
flipped them into what they were.
01:03:20
They're like, I love it. It's a great concept and
01:03:24
everyone was just falling in love with our concepts and it
01:03:26
was great. Everyone just like, Oh my gosh,
01:03:28
it's you guys. Oh, we love your costumes.
01:03:30
Kind of, you know, the same thing we get every time we go.
01:03:34
Then we got yelled at for not wearing costumes on day 2.
01:03:37
Yeah, we, we've got, we're lazy on day 2 and didn't dress up and
01:03:40
everyone's like, where's your costume?
01:03:42
We did it yesterday. I'm kind of.
01:03:45
Glad I wasn't there to see you guys get yelled at.
01:03:47
Yeah. It's OK, we know the people that
01:03:50
yelled at us, they were just sad that we didn't dress up both
01:03:53
days. So going back to.
01:03:55
That you guys just have to be civilian.
01:03:57
I mean, seriously. Yeah, sometimes.
01:04:00
So going back to the cosplay contest, so did he win overall?
01:04:04
Were there different categories? What who?
01:04:07
Who else was in the contest? So they have a kids winner, an
01:04:12
advance winner, intermediate, and the third level fake the
01:04:18
basic ones, the entry beginner. That's intermediate.
01:04:21
Intermediates, middle, umm, novice, novice.
01:04:23
That's it. Novice and makeups.
01:04:25
And then for the adults there's a best in show, and for the kids
01:04:30
there's a best in show. And then there's a couple prizes
01:04:32
for fan. Trans choices work well.
01:04:35
They have a couple prizes for that.
01:04:37
So Bruce won kids best in show. The Mothman you see in the video
01:04:43
as it's scrolling around here. 1 is the other kid that.
01:04:46
Won. Judge's choice?
01:04:48
Judge's choice, I think Bruce Yeah, the other that was the two
01:04:51
kids prizes and then the. Yeah, that right there.
01:04:57
That's the moth man. The for the audience choice.
01:05:00
What they do is they line all the people that haven't won
01:05:03
anything yet up and they just hold it like they do the hand
01:05:06
over the top and everybody yells.
01:05:08
Yeah, whoever gets and loudest applause ends up getting
01:05:11
audience choice. Nice.
01:05:12
And Cindy Rue was hosting it all, so.
01:05:16
Yeah, I was gonna say who, who was hosting?
01:05:17
Who were the judges? So we got roped into judging at
01:05:22
the last minute but it was sacked.
01:05:24
Sack, Bull, Pepper Jack, friend of the show, Pepper Jack and
01:05:27
myself all got roped into being judges.
01:05:29
This is the first time that I've paid to go into a con and and
01:05:32
and got convinced to work. You got put to work, huh?
01:05:37
Very nice. The other judges were running
01:05:39
like stuck in traffic at the Bay Area, so they they needed
01:05:43
judges. Oh, that worked out.
01:05:45
Then That worked out. So what about everybody else's
01:05:47
cosplays? I see a lot of clowns and it's
01:05:50
freaking me out. Yeah.
01:05:51
What were some standout cosplays that you saw?
01:05:55
There was a real really good damn dirty 8.
01:06:00
Yes. So he had the freaking 19 old
01:06:03
schools? What is that 70s?
01:06:05
Yes, he was a he was an old school, one of the apes from
01:06:10
Planet of the Apes. And he had a custom made mask
01:06:15
that articulated just as much as the masks in the movies did,
01:06:19
which means not very much, but like when he talked like the
01:06:22
mouth moves with it, but it's like very minimal, the same way
01:06:25
that the mouths didn't move that much in the movies, which made
01:06:28
it very authentic. And the costume was all
01:06:32
handmade. So he made every single piece of
01:06:34
that costume, which was really. Cool.
01:06:36
Wow. And it was a solid costume.
01:06:38
It looked ready for screen. It looks store bought, like it
01:06:41
looked like somebody bought that but he handmade everything which
01:06:44
made that that much cooler. At one point he was walking.
01:06:47
When he was leaving, I was over by my car and I just, I yell
01:06:51
across the parking lot. Good job, you damn dirty Abe.
01:06:56
You damn dirty, That's funny. You damn dirty.
01:07:01
Ape. And also, this was Bill's first
01:07:03
time at Sinister, so it was he was there to be just to observe
01:07:08
and then got roped into being a judge.
01:07:10
I just thought it was. It's fun because this was the
01:07:13
first time that I went as a photographer and not as somebody
01:07:17
who, like, I didn't cosplay. I wasn't originally.
01:07:20
I mean, I did end up being a part of the cosplay contest, but
01:07:23
I wasn't there as a vendor. I wasn't there hosting anything
01:07:26
or anything thing like that. It it just, it was me taking
01:07:29
pictures and and just I, I ended up taking like over 100 pictures
01:07:33
over the course of the show. So I mean like.
01:07:34
I don't know who you are. You took pictures.
01:07:36
I took a lot of pictures, man, and but I mean, that was the
01:07:40
reason I went, was to take pictures.
01:07:42
Good, you know. Pictures, Pictures.
01:07:45
Yeah. So like you can see other, I
01:07:46
mean all pretty much all the majority of the work, the
01:07:48
pictures on here are pictures that I took.
01:07:50
Nice, very nice brag. Humble brag, not a not so
01:07:54
humble. Brag, So who?
01:07:55
So what else was that besides the cosplay and the amazing
01:07:58
cosplay that we saw? What else was going on at the
01:08:02
Sinister Halloween con? I see a friend of the show Lord.
01:08:06
Blood Raw, Lord, Blood Raw was there.
01:08:08
I got to go and talk to Blood Blood Raw for a minute.
01:08:11
Nice. He's doing well as always.
01:08:13
But Jen, I I mentioned this earlier.
01:08:17
Speaking of Friends of the Show, all of a sudden I'm forgetting
01:08:22
his name. Sean Astin.
01:08:23
Sean Astin. Sean Astin.
01:08:25
Sean Astin was there. Sean Astin had a massive line
01:08:28
the entire time we were there. And towards the end of the day
01:08:32
on Saturday, 'cause he was only there on Saturday, yeah, his
01:08:36
line got like really short to the point where it was inside
01:08:39
the building. So yeah, me and me and Zach
01:08:42
Deadpool decided, well, let's let's get in line.
01:08:45
We're not gonna, like, buy anything, but let's just go stop
01:08:48
by and say hi, right? And SAC Pool goes and talks to
01:08:52
him for a minute. And it's just like, you know, I
01:08:54
want to congratulate you on, you know, getting into the next
01:08:57
round for, you know, potentially being president of SAG and, you
01:09:00
know, all this other stuff. And, you know, they had a little
01:09:02
conversation for a minute and then I get to him and I was
01:09:06
like, I don't know if you Remember Me, Sean.
01:09:07
And he looks at me and he's like, your face is really
01:09:09
familiar, right? And the the agent sitting next
01:09:13
to him goes, yeah, you look really familiar, right?
01:09:17
And I was like, so I was the host on stage at Gem State Comic
01:09:22
Con. He goes, oh, my God, I remember
01:09:23
you right. And we, we we go into having a
01:09:27
conversation and I was just like, yeah, man.
01:09:29
I the only thing is is Jen didn't send me any yellow travel
01:09:32
biscuits because God they were so good.
01:09:34
I'm this print. So, so he, he remembers your
01:09:38
cookies and he was talking about how good those cookies were and,
01:09:42
and we just had to. Give him some cookies.
01:09:44
Oh wait, sorry, no, he's he's my yellow travel biscuit husband.
01:09:49
Yeah, Chuck, Chuck is in the chat.
01:09:51
OK. I'm but like, so I end up having
01:09:55
this conversation with him and, and I offered him to come back
01:09:58
on the show again, 'cause I told him what happened with the
01:10:00
interview and he was like, oh dude, that sucks.
01:10:02
Too bad we're not recording this right now.
01:10:03
And I was like, I know because I wasn't prepared to actually talk
01:10:06
to you today and I didn't think your line was gonna be short
01:10:07
enough for me to come by and say hi.
01:10:10
But he, he did express that he was, he's potentially interested
01:10:15
in coming on the show at some point just to have another
01:10:18
conversation. He was like, definitely after
01:10:20
I'm done with this whole campaign because, you know,
01:10:23
between doing what little comic cons I'm doing and this, you
01:10:27
know, filming what I'm filming and then do this campaign to be
01:10:30
president of the SAG. I, I don't have time for
01:10:32
anything. And I was like, no, I, I, I
01:10:34
assume you don't have time for anything, dude.
01:10:36
Like, you know, come, come January after, come January
01:10:41
after, after the, the election happens, you know, we'll have
01:10:45
another conversation. He goes, no, absolutely, man.
01:10:47
He goes, you guys were fun and I would love to have another
01:10:49
conversation with you. So I give my card back to the
01:10:52
agent. And it's funny because the agent
01:10:53
goes, I remember you now. I was like, I wasn't going to
01:10:56
get him off the stage. Oh, I was like, I, I was like, I
01:11:00
wasn't going to get him off the stage.
01:11:01
That's The thing is what what do you want me to stop Sean in the
01:11:04
middle of a conversation that he's happening having?
01:11:06
I I was like, I did try at least twice to say we we need to wrap
01:11:08
it. And he was like, OK, that's
01:11:09
fine. I'm gonna keep talking.
01:11:11
Yeah. And.
01:11:11
And Sean was like, I wasn't gonna stop talking to my fans.
01:11:14
So you can get mad, but it doesn't matter, right?
01:11:16
Like. What did the agents say?
01:11:17
No, she just showed up after that.
01:11:19
But it was like, you know, we're like, not shut up.
01:11:22
But she was, she was just like, yeah, OK.
01:11:25
But then she took my card and she was like, yeah, no.
01:11:26
After the campaign we'll definitely talk about
01:11:28
potentially having having him come on the show and talk
01:11:30
though. That's awesome.
01:11:32
I think that's gonna be amazing. If it happens, it's amazing.
01:11:34
If it doesn't, you know what? We still had our moment with
01:11:37
him. We've had, I've now had multiple
01:11:39
moments with Sean. So I mean like it's.
01:11:42
I'm not jealous at all. Yeah, but.
01:11:44
I mean, did you bring him a Dutch Bros?
01:11:46
I should have should have gone him a Dutch Bros, but I I I 100%
01:11:52
he's meeting him the second time.
01:11:54
He is. He is absolutely the amazing man
01:11:58
that he always that he seems to be.
01:12:00
He seemed to be that first time even more so the second time.
01:12:02
So that's awesome. That's awesome.
01:12:04
That's so great. That's awesome.
01:12:06
James didn't meet him. I've met him more than James.
01:12:08
Yeah, you have. There's also, Sorry, so also at
01:12:13
the show, there's a professional pumpkin Carver carving a punk in
01:12:16
there. Yeah, wow.
01:12:17
And and he's actually about to be on our show.
01:12:20

We still need like, I don't know, 60 something votes or
01:12:41

01:12:45

01:12:47
we can give a lot of stuff away. We have a lot of other things
01:12:49
going on. Jeff is bringing out this
01:12:51

Perry the Platypus. A platypus.
01:13:27
Perry the Platypus. It's for Bruce's Halloween
01:13:31
costume because him and his aunt decided he was going to be
01:13:33
Perry. They've made everything else but
01:13:36
the feet they asked Jeff to help defeat.
01:13:39
Is he gonna make the noise? Yes, it's Bruce.
01:13:42
It is Jeff going as Doofenshmirtz.
01:13:44
Possibly if I can get it done. I have like 3/4 of the thing
01:13:47
done. So we'll see.
01:13:48
I love Phineas and Ferb, I love it, so I'm all on board.
01:13:52

01:13:56
Jen, you must keep my approval. You missed it.
01:13:58
Then LA Comic Con. The entire cast of Phineas and
01:14:00
Ferb was there. I wish I would have known about
01:14:02
that one. That one you're probably running
01:14:05
around though. We were working.
01:14:07
Yeah, they were. They were in Art of Sally.
01:14:10
Because oh, that's cool. Dan and Adam Savage are my 2
01:14:13
like goal people to get on. What's funny is Pavan Meyer
01:14:16
wasn't. He wasn't.
01:14:19
Huh. He wasn't supposed to be there.
01:14:20
So he wasn't like scheduled to be there, but he just like
01:14:23
randomly showed up. That sounds like.
01:14:26
I know if he's there, I. Mean it's Papin Meyer, right?
01:14:28
Like Papin Meyer just does what he wants anyways.
01:14:30
So it's like you have the entire cast of Phineas and Ferb, and
01:14:33
then Papin Meyer just shows up and he's just like, yeah, no,
01:14:35
I'm here. I would have just told him how
01:14:38
much he changed my life because I will never forget what an
01:14:41
aglet is now. Oh.
01:14:42
God. Yeah, I didn't ever knew what
01:14:45
those were called. Have you seen the thing the reel
01:14:48
where he should he goes. I didn't even realize it, but I
01:14:51
I was right this whole time because apparently platypus,
01:14:54
when you put him in a light glow like that bluish green color
01:14:58
when you put him in like a black light.
01:15:00
Wow, so. That's why Perry's blue.
01:15:02
Awesome. He knew he put a platypus in
01:15:05
front of 1. He knew.
01:15:06
Yeah, he knew. He's just plain coy.
01:15:09
Platypi platypuses platy I don't.

Family's show Platypear. They're also very venomous, so
01:15:17
it's like. Yeah, yes they are.
01:15:19
Yeah, but not as venomous as Komodo dragon.
01:15:23
Man, all these, all these killer animals.
