WEBVTT - Supergirl (Spoiler-Free Tease)

0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:01.440
<v Speaker 1>Because the people need to know.

0:00:01.639 --> 0:00:04.680
<v Speaker 2>Mack and I did see Supergirl early, and we will

0:00:04.720 --> 0:00:08.760
<v Speaker 2>give you a spoiler free discussion right now. Short on

0:00:09.320 --> 0:00:12.040
<v Speaker 2>should you see Supergirl in theater? Should you wait? Should

0:00:12.080 --> 0:00:12.639
<v Speaker 2>you even bother?

0:00:13.400 --> 0:00:16.320
<v Speaker 1>Mac? I will ask you right now, one word answer.

0:00:18.560 --> 0:00:20.360
<v Speaker 3>Oh, and whether they should see it her or not.

0:00:21.440 --> 0:00:24.840
<v Speaker 4>I think I think it's worthy of the big screen experience.

0:00:24.920 --> 0:00:26.800
<v Speaker 4>I think it's a really good movie. I don't know

0:00:26.800 --> 0:00:31.280
<v Speaker 4>if it's great. The characters are here. Here's my takeaway,

0:00:31.880 --> 0:00:34.879
<v Speaker 4>and maybe I'll tease the episode our review of it

0:00:35.000 --> 0:00:40.240
<v Speaker 4>this way. Millie Alcock's Kara Zorrel Supergirl I like more

0:00:40.240 --> 0:00:44.680
<v Speaker 4>as a character than David korn Sweat as Clark Slash Superman. Now,

0:00:45.000 --> 0:00:48.120
<v Speaker 4>I liked Superman more as a movie, but her character

0:00:48.960 --> 0:00:49.720
<v Speaker 4>is just cooler.

0:00:50.000 --> 0:00:52.159
<v Speaker 2>So what I like about it is that it is

0:00:52.200 --> 0:00:56.040
<v Speaker 2>a great counter to what we just got with Superman. Yeah,

0:00:56.080 --> 0:00:59.160
<v Speaker 2>it's a great ying yang of one side is this?

0:00:59.440 --> 0:01:00.000
<v Speaker 2>One side?

0:01:00.160 --> 0:01:00.480
<v Speaker 1>Is this?

0:01:01.080 --> 0:01:05.600
<v Speaker 2>One side is Goss g Willakers. One side is super

0:01:05.760 --> 0:01:08.840
<v Speaker 2>jaded and I love them both being on the screen together.

0:01:09.520 --> 0:01:13.040
<v Speaker 2>I also really enjoyed in this movie. I thought the

0:01:13.080 --> 0:01:17.360
<v Speaker 2>world building, the DC world building was fantastic.

0:01:17.760 --> 0:01:20.320
<v Speaker 4>The world building was really good. It rounds out our

0:01:20.360 --> 0:01:23.080
<v Speaker 4>Superman story that we got and also is going to

0:01:23.160 --> 0:01:27.800
<v Speaker 4>lead into future DC and Superman stories. There is a

0:01:27.800 --> 0:01:31.480
<v Speaker 4>teenage actor in this that plays sort of second fiddle

0:01:31.600 --> 0:01:35.240
<v Speaker 4>to Kyra slash Supergirl, and I gotta.

0:01:35.040 --> 0:01:36.200
<v Speaker 3>Say she was really good.

0:01:36.319 --> 0:01:37.200
<v Speaker 1>I thought she was good.

0:01:37.200 --> 0:01:37.920
<v Speaker 3>It's really good.

0:01:38.200 --> 0:01:41.800
<v Speaker 2>But I'm kind of sick of that in the superhero

0:01:41.920 --> 0:01:46.360
<v Speaker 2>movies of you have the younger kid sidekick looking for

0:01:46.400 --> 0:01:48.800
<v Speaker 2>the reluctant hero to help. We got a lot of

0:01:48.800 --> 0:01:50.160
<v Speaker 2>that in Marvel Phase four.

0:01:50.240 --> 0:01:53.880
<v Speaker 4>So I will say all the themes and plot points

0:01:53.960 --> 0:01:57.680
<v Speaker 4>you've seen before in another movie. There's no real original

0:01:57.720 --> 0:02:01.360
<v Speaker 4>type thing here. But I did like and this was

0:02:01.360 --> 0:02:03.440
<v Speaker 4>sort of teased in some of the press stuff and

0:02:03.680 --> 0:02:06.280
<v Speaker 4>Millie Alcock and them talking how super grossive for the Superman.

0:02:06.600 --> 0:02:09.040
<v Speaker 4>There is an end to this movie that I found

0:02:09.240 --> 0:02:10.040
<v Speaker 4>very satisfied.

0:02:10.080 --> 0:02:13.160
<v Speaker 2>I thought, yeah, so satisfactor. I did really enjoy that. Also,

0:02:13.240 --> 0:02:16.399
<v Speaker 2>and you're gonna see this everywhere because looking at the trailers,

0:02:16.440 --> 0:02:18.720
<v Speaker 2>you're assuming, oh, this looks a lot like Guardians of

0:02:18.760 --> 0:02:19.400
<v Speaker 2>the Galaxy.

0:02:20.040 --> 0:02:21.880
<v Speaker 1>It's more like a Mad Max. Yeah.

0:02:22.040 --> 0:02:24.680
<v Speaker 4>I mean, there are music notes in here that are

0:02:25.200 --> 0:02:26.079
<v Speaker 4>Guardians esque.

0:02:26.680 --> 0:02:28.960
<v Speaker 3>There is some mad Max to it. There's a couple

0:02:28.919 --> 0:02:29.800
<v Speaker 3>of great action.

0:02:29.639 --> 0:02:33.680
<v Speaker 4>Scenes in this movie too. This movie's fun enough. You

0:02:33.800 --> 0:02:36.280
<v Speaker 4>like the characters, you're rooting for them. You get a dog,

0:02:36.360 --> 0:02:39.880
<v Speaker 4>you got Crypto. The one thing I will say is

0:02:40.120 --> 0:02:43.760
<v Speaker 4>it was sort of teased as like a Lobo sidekick movie.

0:02:43.880 --> 0:02:47.280
<v Speaker 4>It's not that he's in here. A couple scenes he's

0:02:47.360 --> 0:02:49.200
<v Speaker 4>kind of fun. Took me out of the movie a

0:02:49.240 --> 0:02:49.639
<v Speaker 4>little bit.

0:02:49.680 --> 0:02:51.600
<v Speaker 1>They would have pulled back one or two of those scenes.

0:02:51.720 --> 0:02:52.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:02:52.160 --> 0:02:55.520
<v Speaker 4>So if you're going to this for Lobo, you know

0:02:55.560 --> 0:02:57.520
<v Speaker 4>a lot of Lobo, you're not gonna get it, but

0:02:57.919 --> 0:02:58.720
<v Speaker 4>he exists.

0:02:59.320 --> 0:03:02.680
<v Speaker 2>Also, if you like complex villains where you're like, oh,

0:03:02.760 --> 0:03:05.000
<v Speaker 2>are they good or bad, you're not gonna like this

0:03:05.040 --> 0:03:07.359
<v Speaker 2>one because and this is actually I don't mind this.

0:03:07.480 --> 0:03:09.840
<v Speaker 2>Every once in a while, it's just a villain that

0:03:09.880 --> 0:03:10.959
<v Speaker 2>you know is a piece of shit.

0:03:11.160 --> 0:03:13.800
<v Speaker 4>To me, this is a not i won't say perfect,

0:03:13.840 --> 0:03:17.560
<v Speaker 4>but like an ideal villain for this one off movie

0:03:17.560 --> 0:03:20.520
<v Speaker 4>that's a stepping stone to something greater. We saw in

0:03:20.600 --> 0:03:25.280
<v Speaker 4>Guardians where Ronan was very much like this guy. So

0:03:25.360 --> 0:03:28.760
<v Speaker 4>you've see again, you've seen this bad guy before. He's

0:03:29.080 --> 0:03:32.720
<v Speaker 4>faceless essentially, he's actually a really really bad guy.

0:03:32.919 --> 0:03:33.119
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:03:33.120 --> 0:03:35.320
<v Speaker 2>And not to give anything away, but the bad guys

0:03:35.320 --> 0:03:37.440
<v Speaker 2>in this are pretty much space pirates.

0:03:37.640 --> 0:03:40.040
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. Yeah, for lack of a better term, even though.

0:03:40.120 --> 0:03:42.840
<v Speaker 1>They do technical really bad things.

0:03:42.960 --> 0:03:43.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, they're bad people.

0:03:43.960 --> 0:03:46.000
<v Speaker 1>They're really aliens.

0:03:46.400 --> 0:03:47.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, they're not from Earth.

0:03:47.760 --> 0:03:49.720
<v Speaker 2>They're not from Earth. That's what I'm saying. You thought

0:03:49.920 --> 0:03:52.880
<v Speaker 2>you thought the whole movie was on Earth. So that

0:03:52.960 --> 0:03:55.920
<v Speaker 2>does get into and I asked my DC expert at work.

0:03:55.960 --> 0:03:58.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, Hey, are there this, this, and this, And

0:03:58.640 --> 0:04:00.600
<v Speaker 2>he's like, oh, I have no idea, Like he was

0:04:00.640 --> 0:04:03.240
<v Speaker 2>confused by the question that I asked, which does get

0:04:03.280 --> 0:04:05.640
<v Speaker 2>into a little bit of the convenience of the end.

0:04:05.720 --> 0:04:07.960
<v Speaker 2>We're not going to spoil anything, but that is one

0:04:08.040 --> 0:04:10.200
<v Speaker 2>of my takeaways of like, why would they do this?

0:04:10.440 --> 0:04:12.600
<v Speaker 1>If this can happen. We'll get more.

0:04:12.520 --> 0:04:16.320
<v Speaker 2>Into spoilers in the you know, the full episode. Two

0:04:16.400 --> 0:04:19.320
<v Speaker 2>questions that I think will be answered obviously by the

0:04:19.440 --> 0:04:22.640
<v Speaker 2>end of the weekend of what is the box office

0:04:22.680 --> 0:04:26.080
<v Speaker 2>going to look like for this movie, because I'm confused

0:04:26.240 --> 0:04:30.320
<v Speaker 2>by who the audience is because the movie I feel

0:04:30.320 --> 0:04:35.679
<v Speaker 2>like is tonally and then violence wise pushes as close

0:04:35.760 --> 0:04:38.640
<v Speaker 2>that PG. Thirteen up to an R without being an

0:04:38.800 --> 0:04:42.160
<v Speaker 2>R to the point of just show some blood, make

0:04:42.160 --> 0:04:44.680
<v Speaker 2>it a little more gory, and just make it an R.

0:04:44.960 --> 0:04:47.719
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I think they're afraid already of the audience, so

0:04:47.960 --> 0:04:51.520
<v Speaker 4>you pull back from the R to PG thirteen. With

0:04:51.760 --> 0:04:56.479
<v Speaker 4>that though, I think that's the perfect differentiator between like

0:04:56.520 --> 0:05:02.000
<v Speaker 4>Superman and Supergirl. Superman PG Supergirl thirteen Slash are the characters,

0:05:02.320 --> 0:05:06.000
<v Speaker 4>and I think having her what has me excited. Having

0:05:06.040 --> 0:05:09.520
<v Speaker 4>her in play going forward, knowing she's gonna make different

0:05:10.000 --> 0:05:12.640
<v Speaker 4>final decisions than Superman would is.

0:05:12.600 --> 0:05:13.320
<v Speaker 3>Intriguing to me.

0:05:13.440 --> 0:05:13.920
<v Speaker 1>I like that.

0:05:13.960 --> 0:05:16.239
<v Speaker 3>I like her. She did a great job. Millie Alcock.

0:05:16.480 --> 0:05:19.599
<v Speaker 2>Also, so as a father, I got a five year old.

0:05:19.640 --> 0:05:22.560
<v Speaker 2>I brought him to see Superman. He's not seeing this.

0:05:22.920 --> 0:05:26.080
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I think you need to be like nine or ten.

0:05:26.279 --> 0:05:28.680
<v Speaker 2>I think it might be twelve thirteen. I think that

0:05:28.800 --> 0:05:31.560
<v Speaker 2>might be if you're thinking of what age to bring

0:05:31.600 --> 0:05:35.280
<v Speaker 2>a kid to it. Obviously it depends on their maturity

0:05:35.320 --> 0:05:38.520
<v Speaker 2>and stuff like that. But the amount of like, you know, weapons,

0:05:38.560 --> 0:05:41.400
<v Speaker 2>although not as much gun play as some other movies,

0:05:41.480 --> 0:05:42.400
<v Speaker 2>which is it's.

0:05:42.360 --> 0:05:45.719
<v Speaker 4>Violent but more fistfighting, there are some weapons. There's a

0:05:45.720 --> 0:05:50.479
<v Speaker 4>couple of swears. I think thematically, though, the whole slave

0:05:50.720 --> 0:05:52.000
<v Speaker 4>bride sort of thing.

0:05:52.000 --> 0:05:55.839
<v Speaker 1>Depression that with. Yeah, that's a lot of heavy tones.

0:05:55.960 --> 0:05:59.200
<v Speaker 4>So in that respect, maturity wise, you kind of have

0:05:59.279 --> 0:06:00.160
<v Speaker 4>to be pret.

0:06:00.440 --> 0:06:03.200
<v Speaker 2>And that also then gets into the box office of

0:06:03.279 --> 0:06:06.080
<v Speaker 2>like you're cutting out a large amount of people that

0:06:06.120 --> 0:06:07.919
<v Speaker 2>would go to a superhero movie.

0:06:08.000 --> 0:06:08.880
<v Speaker 3>I get that part.

0:06:09.440 --> 0:06:11.640
<v Speaker 4>I don't know if they ever planned on this making

0:06:12.200 --> 0:06:14.479
<v Speaker 4>two billion dollars, though, I think it's a good table

0:06:14.520 --> 0:06:17.680
<v Speaker 4>set for the character and helps expand the universe in

0:06:17.760 --> 0:06:18.640
<v Speaker 4>necessary ways.

0:06:18.760 --> 0:06:20.400
<v Speaker 2>This is a good movie, and I wanted to do

0:06:20.640 --> 0:06:24.200
<v Speaker 2>just well enough to not offset or make them change

0:06:24.200 --> 0:06:27.560
<v Speaker 2>their mind about any of their other ideas moving forward.
