And one thing from the 354 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 6: trailer that really jumped out to me that I think 355 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 6: is great. You know, I think there's one point where 356 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,840 Speaker 6: the Predator is wearing el fanning in like a backpack 357 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 6: doesn't have legs, and it reminded me of Mamir and 358 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 6: Cradles in the Newest God of War Gamesmir's you know 359 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 6: ahead that Crados carries around and they're chatting and talking 360 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 6: the whole game. So it's giving me that similar vibe 361 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 6: and I think that's like a really fun dynamic that'll 362 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 6: add to the movie. And the action sequences look incredible too. 363 00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 8: Yeah, totally. 364 00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 7: I feel like we're really watching the full merger of 365 00:16:59,080 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 7: Alien and Preda. 366 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 8: Like to start with the said, I was like, here 367 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 8: we go. 368 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:09,400 Speaker 7: I am excited, and team make Monsters sexy again. 369 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 3: I want to say one thing first, because I agree 370 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:21,919 Speaker 3: with you about they made him sexy.

Now the 421 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 4: audience is letting us know they feel like it is, 422 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:30,400 Speaker 4: and that's what's really important. 423 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 3: And I think as well, like Ian, what is your. 424 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 4: Kind of read on the tone at Comic Con, because 425 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 4: I've heard quite a lot of people who kind of 426 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 4: shared our feelings. But do you I've also seen, like 427 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 4: you said, a love of the Fantastic fourard the costumes. Yeah, 428 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 4: do you feel like it's more positive here that kind 429 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 4: of read for sure? 430 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 6: I mean, I think the overwhelming sentiment from from people 431 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 6: I've talked to, friends people here is that, you know, 432 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,399 Speaker 6: there was people were so excited for this movie. The 433 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,919 Speaker 6: anticipation for finally getting the Fantastic Four and the MCU 434 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 6: was so huge. And I'll speak for myself personally, you know, 435 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 6: I think maybe even I maybe built it up a 436 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 6: little bit too much for myself. So when seeing all 437 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 6: the positive reviews and people loving the movie, I'm happy. 438 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 5: And that's good for the industry. 439 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,399 Speaker 6: I think it's good for Marvel, But for me, I 440 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:24,640 Speaker 6: think maybe, you know, because the previous films have been 441 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:26,959 Speaker 6: somewhat of a disappointment, I think we can all agree 442 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:28,000 Speaker 6: that the fact. 443 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 5: That this movie is just like a good movie. 444 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, it it feels like that's enough of a win 445 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:34,679 Speaker 6: for everybody to be like, Okay, we did it. 446 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:36,159 Speaker 5: They made like a decent movie. 447 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 6: So I feel like that's maybe where the disconnect, at 448 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:40,919 Speaker 6: least the way we feel about the movie versus what 449 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 6: the general audience seems to think is coming from. 450 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:46,439 Speaker 4: But I think that's really good insight. And I just 451 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:48,919 Speaker 4: think also like for us, we want it to be 452 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 4: that thing that gives us that childhood joy and the feeling. 453 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 3: You know what, I'm sure. 454 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:54,639 Speaker 4: It's going to give that to a lot of people, 455 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 4: and that makes me really happy. And as we've always said, 456 00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 4: guess what we still got? The comics still got everything 457 00:20:59,240 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 4: else that we use. 458 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, where do we think it lands? Okay? 459 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 1: So here is our top six ok of opening ok 460 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 1: opening weekends. Minecraft Number one, Lelo and Stitch number two, Sinners, 461 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:16,679 Speaker 1: Jurassic World Rebirth, How To Train Your Dragon, Superman, Oh, 462 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:21,919 Speaker 1: Fantastic four. Is it going to slot in somewhere in 463 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: that top four? One hundred and sixty two opening for Minecraft, 464 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:31,200 Speaker 1: one for six for Lelo and Stitch. Does it crack 465 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 1: the top two? 466 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 3: I don't think it's gonna Cracklelo and Stitch, just because 467 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 3: my understanding as well is like that is still swelling. 468 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 4: Obviously, open weekend is open weekend, but I think, like 469 00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:44,199 Speaker 4: that's one hundred and forty six. I think this is 470 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:47,160 Speaker 4: maybe gonna be a very funny instance for people like us. 471 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:49,399 Speaker 4: I think it's gonna make one hundred and twenty four million, 472 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:51,639 Speaker 4: and it's going to be exactly the same number of 473 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:53,160 Speaker 4: millions around. 474 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 3: The space of Superman. 475 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 4: And I think what it's gonna tell people is, yes, 476 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 4: there's an appetite for this stuff, but you've got to 477 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 4: stop trying to pretend that every movie can be a 478 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:02,440 Speaker 4: billion dollar movie and stop. 479 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 1: Making these movies. There's a retrenchman happening exactly. It might 480 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 1: be that eight hundred million is like the new hit 481 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 1: and then and even then they can the new average, 482 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 1: you know. So if the problem is that's like several 483 00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 1: hundred million dollars in difference. So like what happens now, 484 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:23,200 Speaker 1: and how do we change the way we produce these movies? 485 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:26,040 Speaker 4: I know, start producing them like there are all kinds 486 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 4: of movies, like there are all kinds of comic books. 487 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:32,200 Speaker 4: I truly believe you could give someone ten million dollars 488 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:35,920 Speaker 4: with a vision or something make an incredible, superior movie 489 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 4: in Australia that's completely different to anything that we would 490 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:42,159 Speaker 4: kind of expect. I think that's like there's got to 491 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:46,080 Speaker 4: be a reconsideration. Sure, because even like Thunderbolts, it did well. 492 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:48,960 Speaker 4: It opened well, very good, very good. 493 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 7: Number nine at the highest grossing, so it's still in 494 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 7: the top ten. 495 00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:54,960 Speaker 3: But at the same time, where is it at four hundred? 496 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 3: I was gonna say it didn't make it? 497 00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,200 Speaker 4: Did I'm pretty sure it didn't ever hit five hundred 498 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:00,880 Speaker 4: And that was the issue was it went to four 499 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 4: high fours, but it wasn't doing that big climb the 500 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 4: long legs, and that was legitimately a great movie with great. 501 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:10,200 Speaker 6: I think the thing is we got to start raining 502 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:12,920 Speaker 6: in some of these budgets, Like you know, every movie 503 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:14,639 Speaker 6: doesn't need to have a two hundred and fifty million 504 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:17,359 Speaker 6: dollar budget. So I don't see a reason why we 505 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:19,639 Speaker 6: can't have like a ninety million dollar Blade movie, just 506 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,160 Speaker 6: like make it happen, you know. So Yeah, I think 507 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 6: that's the biggest thing, Like we don't need to make the. 508 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 8: First movie you cheap out on Blade. 509 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:32,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's one of those things where I do think 510 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:34,919 Speaker 4: Like Blade for example, I mean, think about this. I 511 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 4: know it was a different time. I know money was different. 512 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 4: James Cameron, like he made Terminated Too for one hundred 513 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 4: million dollars. It was the most expensive movie of its 514 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 4: time at the time. 515 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 3: Still looks beautiful. 516 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:47,159 Speaker 4: Maybe there is a space where young new creators or 517 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:51,480 Speaker 4: artists should be getting grants and incentives and money to 518 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 4: make see what would be a little bit different. 519 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 3: Think about were Wolf by Night. It was so good, 520 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,200 Speaker 3: it was so good that also. 521 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:01,800 Speaker 1: That also like made zero the night made zero money, 522 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:05,119 Speaker 1: and it was like they just like through Michael like 523 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 1: a couple million and him, go do your thing. 524 00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 4: Now, I'm saying, let him do the thing in the 525 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 4: MCU because he's good at it, Like why isn't why 526 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 4: isn't he directing or co directing Blade? And then making 527 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 4: sure that the script is written by a black person 528 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,440 Speaker 4: who actually has some interest, maybe someone from London, because 529 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 4: that's actually where Blade. You know, he was raised in 530 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:28,119 Speaker 4: the Red Light district with all of his mom and 531 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:30,639 Speaker 4: her sex worker friends. Were like, they're the ones who 532 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:33,840 Speaker 4: are raising him until obviously his mum untimely death needs revenge. 533 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:35,959 Speaker 4: But like there's different ways, and I think you make 534 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 4: a good call. I think after Sinners, if they didn't 535 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,720 Speaker 4: call Ryan Coogle up and start begging him to make 536 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 4: that Blade movie, they're dumb. 537 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:43,879 Speaker 8: I think it's how we got the announcement. It was 538 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 8: the earliest week. 539 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 4: They're like, you can't own this one, but we can't 540 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:52,119 Speaker 4: pay you way more money. 541 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:58,920 Speaker 10: A lot of spin offsnounced so much fine many the 542 00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 10: freaking where he's President voiced by the legendary Keith David 543 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 10: was getting President and Andre Curtis, okay, Joe Andre Curtis, what. 544 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:09,359 Speaker 3: That show is going to be about? Because we couldn't 545 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 3: walk it out, like they have not told us. 546 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:13,119 Speaker 8: So here here's what I was reading this morning. 547 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 7: They were like, we would love this even if it 548 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:17,440 Speaker 7: wasn't a part of Ricky Morning, because the character is 549 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:18,240 Speaker 7: so fascinating. 550 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 8: The world they built out is really great. 551 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 7: The character is interesting and to be fair, it's like, 552 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:27,440 Speaker 7: what if Barack Obama had all of that swagger still 553 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 7: but then was like a total asshole publicly, And that 554 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 7: is an interesting angle on a character. It's interesting that 555 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 7: he's like Rix Nemesis. I think maybe most famously in 556 00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 7: the show, he slept with rixa. 557 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 8: One of my favorite moments of the show. So I 558 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:45,240 Speaker 8: don't I don't know. 559 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:48,399 Speaker 7: I don't know if it's like a political like satire 560 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:51,359 Speaker 7: show or if it's another sort of action adventure show. 561 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 8: We do have seen him do a lot of like 562 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 8: secret covert stuff on Rick and Morty, so it's pop. 563 00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:01,960 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, So it seems like maybe they'll go in 564 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 7: more of that direction, which is fun. I still don't 565 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,479 Speaker 7: know who's leading is just I'm like, I mean, Dan's 566 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:08,360 Speaker 7: still leading it, but I don't know who, like which 567 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,480 Speaker 7: writers he's bringing over, so it's still a lot of 568 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 7: big question marks. I think this is a very interesting 569 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 7: character to spin out. I thought like Space Beth maybe 570 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 7: be your option. I would also take an alt universe 571 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 7: Summer because I'm obsessed with Summer. I think she's totally 572 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 7: super funny. Why Me Too Somewhere has the greatest adventure, 573 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 7: so it's an interesting choice. 574 00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 8: Well, we'll have to see what happens. 575 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 7: I think Adult Swim and its animated shows are like 576 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:37,280 Speaker 7: wildly hit or miss, So I don't know where this 577 00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:38,159 Speaker 7: will land in the end. 578 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:39,680 Speaker 2: Up next Outlander. 579 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:44,240 Speaker 1: Fans of period time travel romance, the show will continue, 580 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:48,800 Speaker 1: the vibe will continue.

Was like the greatest American hero meets Novaeah. 685 00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:58,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, I have to say it was actually like a 686 00:31:58,760 --> 00:31:59,720 Speaker 3: pretty funny fun book. 687 00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:01,920 Speaker 4: But I again again, they need to find if they 688 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:03,520 Speaker 4: want Nova to be at the heart of them see You, 689 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 4: which they have for so long, they need to find 690 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 4: someone who can make it into like Akmalacan level success. 691 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 3: Like it needs to be something that pops off organically, because. 692 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:14,600 Speaker 7: The story is the Spider Man animated series. You know, 693 00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 7: a great Kid Nova hang out with like Girl White Tiger. 694 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 8: I love that verse. 695 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:21,560 Speaker 7: He's like cocky, but he again doesn't really know how 696 00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:24,320 Speaker 7: to use his powers yet. He knows he belongs to 697 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 7: part of this great like core, but they're far away. 698 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 7: He's on Earth and separated from him, and so he's 699 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:31,840 Speaker 7: figuring all that out. So it's like very like fish 700 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 7: out of water, like up and Hummer, with a lot 701 00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:36,160 Speaker 7: of promise. And I felt that that was like a 702 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:38,720 Speaker 7: really interesting angle on a character I didn't know much about. 703 00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 7: It definitely made me want to learn more about him, 704 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 7: So maybe we can lean in that angle hole. 705 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 1: Does the Lantern Show make any Nova ooh I Vision 706 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 1: show veterans less likely? 707 00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,960 Speaker 4: I don't know, because I think that the Green Lantern 708 00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:58,920 Speaker 4: Corpse are like universal and multiversal, so it could actually 709 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:02,240 Speaker 4: be interesting to Nova as almost like you know Cap 710 00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 4: in Civil. 711 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 2: War or some of Bops both space cops. 712 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 4: I just wonder if because there's only one of Nova, 713 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:13,080 Speaker 4: there becomes some kind of antagonism between them. He doesn't 714 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:14,960 Speaker 4: like the way they're policing, or he doesn't think they're 715 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:15,680 Speaker 4: doing it well enough. 716 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 3: It could really you. 717 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:19,200 Speaker 1: Could kill off the entire Novacorp, which is always fun 718 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 1: to do it exactly. The only idea it seems like 719 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 1: they ever. 720 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:25,760 Speaker 3: Had I'm like, come on, but I do. 721 00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 4: I will say I love the use. I like to 722 00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 4: read a solicit hear what they're saying about it. I 723 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:31,960 Speaker 4: want to see that they're having fun. I don't want 724 00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 4: it to read like it's AI. I like that they 725 00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:36,520 Speaker 4: kind of called him like a space farer that hints 726 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:39,160 Speaker 4: at some kind of like maybe vintagey Rocketeer, like more 727 00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 4: like an Aventure comic, which I think could be really 728 00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:42,400 Speaker 4: fun for that. 729 00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:46,120 Speaker 1: Coming up next, our interviews with Alien Earths Noah Holly 730 00:33:46,240 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 1: and Alex Buffer.

But what was nice is you 742 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:34,279 Speaker 12: know you you you still on it for a couple 743 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:36,680 Speaker 12: of years and then you go back to it and 744 00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:40,359 Speaker 12: you see if it holds up, and you know all 745 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:43,280 Speaker 12: the elements that you're that you watch were in that original. 746 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:47,360 Speaker 1: Well, we've seen the pilot and it's amazing. We'll be 747 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:50,439 Speaker 1: general regarding details, but Joelle. 748 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:53,399 Speaker 7: Yeah, I am obsessed with the pilot. I've had such 749 00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:55,319 Speaker 7: a good time watching it. I was telling Jason earlier 750 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 7: that I've had to sit on my hands and like not. 751 00:34:56,719 --> 00:35:00,399 Speaker 7: I mean, my father's a huge alien fan. Everything about 752 00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:01,440 Speaker 7: like when I get the chance to talk to him 753 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:03,240 Speaker 7: about it, was the first thing I want to talk about. 754 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:06,239 Speaker 8: I want to talk about hiding the alien in the frame. 755 00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 7: Yeah, Like talk to me a little bit about like 756 00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:11,360 Speaker 7: how much of that is initially in the script, and 757 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 7: how much of is that is you like working with 758 00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:15,560 Speaker 7: your cinematographer and producting I figure out, like Howard because 759 00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:18,560 Speaker 7: we don't know. I'm not spoiling anythings Refoor embargo, but 760 00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 7: like talking about how you worked that into the horror 761 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:22,040 Speaker 7: element of it. 762 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:22,359 Speaker 9: Yeah. 763 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:24,279 Speaker 12: I mean one of the brilliant things about having a 764 00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:29,239 Speaker 12: hr Giger on the movie, not just creating the creatures, 765 00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 12: is is you know, his design infused the whole movie, 766 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:36,440 Speaker 12: and so when you watch Alien, what you realize is 767 00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:39,320 Speaker 12: that all the shapes on the ship are evocative of 768 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,879 Speaker 12: the creature itself, so you're never really sure when you're 769 00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:44,960 Speaker 12: seeing it and when you're not. And you know, that 770 00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:48,360 Speaker 12: was certainly an inspiration for us. And then, you know, 771 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:51,480 Speaker 12: I'm big on character reveals. I think that when you 772 00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:54,560 Speaker 12: introduce a character, you have to make the iconic, and 773 00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:56,920 Speaker 12: so it was really important to me that that first 774 00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:00,359 Speaker 12: moment that you really see the Xenomorph is a movie 775 00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:05,520 Speaker 12: star moment. And you know, I can report from holl 776 00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:08,680 Speaker 12: Age that it did exactly what I wanted report for 777 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:09,200 Speaker 12: my computer. 778 00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 7: It did exactly like, oh my god, I was screaming 779 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:15,440 Speaker 7: the whole time. I love I loved watching the pilot. Well, 780 00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:19,560 Speaker 7: speaking of like big you know, character reveals, and uh, 781 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:24,000 Speaker 7: first time, Alex, you play CJ, who immediately fall in 782 00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:27,520 Speaker 7: love with He's like such a sweet, precious boy, talk 783 00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:31,120 Speaker 7: a little bit about you know, and and in the 784 00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:34,799 Speaker 7: show he's kind of like the only grounded human we're 785 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:39,000 Speaker 7: dealing with like cyborgs and we're dealing with billionaire boy 786 00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:41,239 Speaker 7: princes and stuff, and like here come CJ. And he's 787 00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:44,279 Speaker 7: like very grounded and morally centered. For you like as 788 00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:46,799 Speaker 7: that sort of center. How was that for you as 789 00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:49,080 Speaker 7: an actor? And how did you feel about your reveal 790 00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:49,760 Speaker 7: of this character. 791 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:53,000 Speaker 11: Yes, Pool misname it CJ. I don't know where's come from. 792 00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:57,160 Speaker 11: He's called do DiMaggio in full after the baseball player, 793 00:36:57,280 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 11: and then somewhere along the line that's becomes CJ. But anyway, 794 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 11: Hermit has been Yeah, he's been left thinkingly alone without 795 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:12,440 Speaker 11: his family. It's just having as he believed. And I 796 00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:13,920 Speaker 11: don't think it's too much of a spoiler because I 797 00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:16,920 Speaker 11: think it's out there in the open that he's been 798 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:23,680 Speaker 11: separated from his sister Wendy. And therefore I think there's 799 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:28,160 Speaker 11: a sense that we find this quite yeah, that that 800 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:32,080 Speaker 11: that he he's he's missing of a of a of 801 00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:35,719 Speaker 11: a motor, of a of a of a reason to 802 00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 11: move throughout the world. 803 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 12: And but Alex and I talked a lot. There's a 804 00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:47,120 Speaker 12: couple of animated movies that are referenced in but one 805 00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:50,160 Speaker 12: that you don't see physically on screen. That that that 806 00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:53,879 Speaker 12: Alex and I talked about was Wally Because I said, 807 00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:56,799 Speaker 12: you know, I want him to he's alone, but he's 808 00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:57,400 Speaker 12: not sad. 809 00:37:57,680 --> 00:37:59,680 Speaker 11: Yeah, you know, Yeah, And there's a sense that there's 810 00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:02,160 Speaker 11: a p sedualness to what he's doing and he's getting through. 811 00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 11: He lives in this particular humanity minus world. He lives 812 00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:10,400 Speaker 11: sort of in the underbelly of the planet that we 813 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:13,680 Speaker 11: find him in on this earth, that is in the 814 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:16,719 Speaker 11: future from here, and he's kind of just getting on 815 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:21,200 Speaker 11: with life by obligation rather than by choice. And he's 816 00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:24,520 Speaker 11: part of the military, but a medic. Yeah, and then 817 00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:26,759 Speaker 11: sort of I suppose the carpet of that day to 818 00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:29,000 Speaker 11: day ness of his life is ripped out from underneath 819 00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:31,239 Speaker 11: him when all the action thicks up. 820 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 1: No Alien is not a series that one would usually 821 00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:38,520 Speaker 1: think of as containing. 822 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,440 Speaker 2: Music drops contemporary music trusts, but there's. 823 00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:45,480 Speaker 1: Some wonderful ones in the series, including songs by Metallica 824 00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:46,600 Speaker 1: by Tool by Nina Simon. 825 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:48,520 Speaker 2: Tell me about the decision to do that. 826 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:53,200 Speaker 12: You know, when you're making something for the fans, it's 827 00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:58,160 Speaker 12: about a feeling, a big feeling, right, And I made 828 00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:02,480 Speaker 12: the decision that you know, each episode is is a 829 00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:05,640 Speaker 12: bit of a cliffhanger, right, and what's going to launch 830 00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:09,200 Speaker 12: you out of an episode should be the feeling of 831 00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:14,279 Speaker 12: I'm exhilarated, I can't wait for more. And so there 832 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:17,840 Speaker 12: was this. I just started putting these these songs in 833 00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:24,720 Speaker 12: these these classic you know, big anthemic, you know, metal 834 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:30,880 Speaker 12: or or hard rock songs that that exist like Alien itself, 835 00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:36,960 Speaker 12: you know, in this classic sphere. And the combination of 836 00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:41,520 Speaker 12: that needle drop, those visuals, that moment and and and 837 00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:45,680 Speaker 12: that that smashed black you know, it becomes really a 838 00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:48,640 Speaker 12: big feeling. And I think, you know, looking at the 839 00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:51,880 Speaker 12: fan base of Alien, these are some rockers. I mean 840 00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:56,799 Speaker 12: literally in the movie Aliens, they go, let's rock. 841 00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:57,239 Speaker 5: Yeah. 842 00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:01,360 Speaker 12: Right, So that's my motto to Askez, Well. 843 00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:02,160 Speaker 8: Yeah, I love it. 844 00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:02,680 Speaker 1: You know. 845 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:04,279 Speaker 7: So that we've been talking a lot Jason and I 846 00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:07,919 Speaker 7: on our podcast is like what defines science fiction? 847 00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:09,480 Speaker 8: It's the conversation we've been going back and forth. 848 00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 7: We talked a little bit about it on our panel here, 849 00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:14,200 Speaker 7: and you use an Athma Off quote in the show, 850 00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:17,480 Speaker 7: which essentially is like, at one point technology becomes so 851 00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:21,600 Speaker 7: advanced it's magic. And given the advanced nature of the 852 00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:24,160 Speaker 7: technology in this show, I was curious, do you view 853 00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:28,240 Speaker 7: Alien the franchise as more science fiction or more fantasy? 854 00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:30,759 Speaker 7: And did that have an impact on how you were, 855 00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:32,319 Speaker 7: you know, crafting the show. 856 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:36,560 Speaker 12: What I love about the first two movies. Is they 857 00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:39,759 Speaker 12: exist in the sort of retro futuristic sense. You know, 858 00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:45,640 Speaker 12: you have these cathode tube ray televisions and the asci 859 00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:51,400 Speaker 12: text and you know, certainly in Prometheus, I guess Ridley 860 00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:54,319 Speaker 12: decided that he didn't want to do that anymore, even 861 00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 12: though its a prequel that now the technologies are holograms 862 00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:00,160 Speaker 12: and it's very advanced and everything. And but for me, 863 00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:04,520 Speaker 12: that's the identity of Alien and it is science fiction 864 00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 12: in that it's speculative. And I do think that, you know, 865 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:13,040 Speaker 12: so much of what the future that we've evolved into 866 00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:17,359 Speaker 12: is what was created by science fiction writers and filmmakers 867 00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:21,279 Speaker 12: in the sixties and seventies, et cetera. So for me, 868 00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:24,520 Speaker 12: it was just trying to create a version of the 869 00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:28,440 Speaker 12: future that felt plausible, you know, one or two steps 870 00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:33,040 Speaker 12: ahead of where we are right now, but and where 871 00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:36,320 Speaker 12: we're grappling with very similar issues to what we're grappling 872 00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:39,560 Speaker 12: right now. But you know, I'm rooting for us here 873 00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:43,400 Speaker 12: on the planet Earth. And you know, let's see what 874 00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 12: happens when we introduce an apex predator. Maybe that'll whip 875 00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:46,719 Speaker 12: us some shit. 876 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:52,600 Speaker 1: Alex tell me about creating the character, was there a 877 00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:54,680 Speaker 1: moment when you thought, oh, I think I've got my 878 00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:56,440 Speaker 1: arms around CJ. 879 00:41:56,680 --> 00:42:01,000 Speaker 11: And what drives Yeah, I think it really was my 880 00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:05,239 Speaker 11: first days filming with Sydney Chandler, who plays Wendy, who 881 00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:10,640 Speaker 11: is that I play her sibling? There was something and 882 00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:14,080 Speaker 11: I think this happens sometimes when until you've sort of 883 00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:16,960 Speaker 11: worked out your through line and your place is a 884 00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:21,279 Speaker 11: character in a story, things can be slightly there's a 885 00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:23,920 Speaker 11: sort of fuzziness. And being on set with Sydney for 886 00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:26,120 Speaker 11: the first day and it was, you know, maybe a 887 00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:29,279 Speaker 11: couple of weeks into filming, I something to think became 888 00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:33,120 Speaker 11: crystal clear as to what I was doing there who 889 00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:35,480 Speaker 11: my character thought we had to protect and the tension 890 00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:39,399 Speaker 11: and then grows out of that because and I don't 891 00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:44,080 Speaker 11: think again it's a spoiler. Wendy was formerly known to 892 00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:49,680 Speaker 11: Hermit as Marci and was a girl, a ten ninety 893 00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:50,759 Speaker 11: ten year old girl. 894 00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:51,239 Speaker 3: Is that right? 895 00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:54,359 Speaker 12: She's twelve in the show twelve, but you probably haven't 896 00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:55,520 Speaker 12: seen her for yeah. 897 00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:56,120 Speaker 2: Since that time. 898 00:42:56,800 --> 00:43:00,400 Speaker 11: And therefore I'm meeting someone who I remember in a 899 00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:06,520 Speaker 11: totally different cell as this hybrid human and all this 900 00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:08,200 Speaker 11: care that I feel for this person, where do I 901 00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:11,560 Speaker 11: put it because he's now more than human. 902 00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:13,399 Speaker 2: Yeah. 903 00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:17,560 Speaker 1: Well this has been fantastic.
