But without further ado, 0:02:11.760 --> 0:02:15.519 I definitely want to introduce our guests. Great all around dude, 0:02:16.040 --> 0:02:18.800 host of the Mad Titan podcast, stand up comic funny. 0:02:18.840 --> 0:02:21.000 You've seen him on screen Junks, You've seen him on Collider, 0:02:21.080 --> 0:02:23.919 You've seen him literally anywhere you can see nerdy people 0:02:23.919 --> 0:02:28.359 do nerdy things. Give it up for Jay Washington. Yet, 0:02:28.520 --> 0:02:33.200 happy to be here, very thank you for having me. Seriously, 0:02:33.200 --> 0:02:34.680 I'm glad to be on here with you. Was there 0:02:34.680 --> 0:02:36.519 anyone that you were really excited that was announced in 0:02:36.560 --> 0:02:40.239 the internals? I think the paper Boy announcing was so dope. 0:02:40.320 --> 0:02:44.240 And the Game of Thrones reunion to basically put Rob 0:02:44.280 --> 0:02:47.200 Stark and John Snow back together, Yeah, you know that 0:02:47.320 --> 0:02:49.880 was kind of dope. Um, the Stark boys at it 0:02:49.880 --> 0:02:53.960 again again to get Angelina Jolie and see you and 0:02:54.080 --> 0:02:56.440 not just in a cameo. You know what I'm saying. 0:02:56.440 --> 0:02:58.480 Because you hear Angelie Joe, You're like, all right, she's 0:02:58.480 --> 0:03:01.120 gonna have a small role. No, she's a main part 0:03:01.760 --> 0:03:05.440 of this. And you're like, okay, but there's no way 0:03:05.520 --> 0:03:09.680 she would take a smart because she is Maleficent, so 0:03:09.720 --> 0:03:12.040 she's in that Disney universe. But at the same time, 0:03:12.080 --> 0:03:13.640 it's like a lot of people just want to be 0:03:13.680 --> 0:03:15.639 a part of the m c U now because it's 0:03:15.680 --> 0:03:18.320 so big. So you know, some people like, look, I'll 0:03:18.360 --> 0:03:20.400 just take a role whatever you got and to have 0:03:20.440 --> 0:03:22.080 her and like you said, sell my Kiyak out of 0:03:22.120 --> 0:03:25.160 all people like I could see eventually Angela and Jolie 0:03:25.200 --> 0:03:28.480 being being maleficent. But then sem mahare like yo, somebody 0:03:28.560 --> 0:03:32.040 was like, this is what you should do. That was 0:03:32.080 --> 0:03:36.840 probably her. Her agent was like, yo, I got the 0:03:36.840 --> 0:03:39.400 perfect thing. And the fact that they did because of 0:03:39.440 --> 0:03:43.200 what she's playing, uh leam MQ and Laura Riddolf, what 0:03:43.240 --> 0:03:45.760 they're doing with their characters. Their genda been in three 0:03:45.800 --> 0:03:48.800 of the eternals. So that's so dope, you know what 0:03:48.840 --> 0:03:51.040 I'm saying That they've shown marble showing like, look, we 0:03:51.080 --> 0:03:53.600 don't we don't have to stick to the norm what 0:03:53.600 --> 0:03:55.960 the comic books were. You know, we can change a 0:03:56.000 --> 0:03:58.520 man to a woman or vice versa. That's why it 0:03:58.600 --> 0:04:00.640 really bothered before we hop into a we're geeking out 0:04:00.640 --> 0:04:02.640 about That's what really bothered me about She When the 0:04:02.640 --> 0:04:05.920 she Hulk announcement happened and I tweeted, oh, I would 0:04:05.920 --> 0:04:08.680 love to have like a beefy actress, like that's just 0:04:08.800 --> 0:04:12.960 thick like playing it, and they were like, um, one, 0:04:13.040 --> 0:04:16.040 she's like she's always she Hulk, she doesn't transform, which 0:04:16.080 --> 0:04:18.960 is not true. Um. And then because there are iterations 0:04:18.960 --> 0:04:22.400 where she chooses to huh and she yeah, I mean 0:04:22.600 --> 0:04:24.800 it takes two seconds to google but whatever. Um and 0:04:24.839 --> 0:04:26.880 then it just seemed like people were making up excuses 0:04:26.920 --> 0:04:29.840 for her to not be thicker. I just pointed out, 0:04:29.839 --> 0:04:32.159 I'm like, you know, all of our female superheroes live action, 0:04:32.200 --> 0:04:34.520 they're all size six and under, which you know is 0:04:34.560 --> 0:04:36.479 I'm not body shaming at all. I think that's fine, 0:04:36.480 --> 0:04:38.040 but I would love to see if we're talking about 0:04:38.040 --> 0:04:39.880 I want to see a six five woman beat the 0:04:39.920 --> 0:04:43.320 dog crabbing. Also, a lot of people forget about she Hulk. 0:04:43.560 --> 0:04:46.720 She has a hyper sex drive. That's one of the 0:04:46.760 --> 0:04:49.400 things about her character. Because of her getting at Gammer, 0:04:49.600 --> 0:04:51.680 it just enhanced her sex drive. So I want to 0:04:51.960 --> 0:04:56.360 yo gamma radiation make you want the Hulk was immune. Hey, look, 0:04:56.400 --> 0:04:58.320 we don't know how much the Hope was smashing on 0:04:58.400 --> 0:05:02.800 scar like, but it just was so they were like, 0:05:03.080 --> 0:05:05.400 wouldn't she be Like wouldn't she like people are just 0:05:05.440 --> 0:05:09.040 coming up with But also they were like, how how 0:05:09.040 --> 0:05:10.800 are we going to ever find an actress? Like I'm like, 0:05:10.839 --> 0:05:13.840 are you kidding me? Also, the w W E y'all 0:05:13.839 --> 0:05:17.600 were so quick to take in freaking the Rock and 0:05:17.800 --> 0:05:21.880 John Cena and um Dave Batista like you're so willing 0:05:21.920 --> 0:05:24.200 to take in them and believe them. But like when 0:05:24.200 --> 0:05:25.920 it comes to a woman that maybe a lot of 0:05:25.960 --> 0:05:28.960 the women now are shorter in the w w E. 0:05:29.800 --> 0:05:32.160 But that's what I mean. She hope doesn't necessarily if 0:05:32.200 --> 0:05:34.400 we're gender bending, or if we're like, don't have to 0:05:34.400 --> 0:05:36.840 go entirely off source material. I don't think she has 0:05:36.880 --> 0:05:41.000 to be eleven naturally. I think that you can put 0:05:41.000 --> 0:05:43.200 her in something. I think that we can cheat the 0:05:43.240 --> 0:05:45.599 camera a little bit, maybe, like we put Tom Cruise 0:05:45.600 --> 0:05:48.960 on Apple boxes for everything. You know, Camara is green 0:05:49.160 --> 0:05:51.760 and it's an interesting green and like you guys are 0:05:51.800 --> 0:05:53.800 a chill with Thanos, Like you know, when everyone saw 0:05:53.880 --> 0:05:55.719 him was like whoa what and then you guys just 0:05:55.800 --> 0:05:57.839 everyone loves it. So anyways, what I'm saying is like, 0:05:57.920 --> 0:06:00.320 please just be open, for the love of God, Like 0:06:00.360 --> 0:06:02.240 just you don't have to have you're talking about the 0:06:02.279 --> 0:06:04.599 world today. We're being open is the thing that people 0:06:04.640 --> 0:06:07.120 just don't want to do. It just felt like when 0:06:07.160 --> 0:06:12.159 I asked for thicker actresses, everybody had a reason to 0:06:12.400 --> 0:06:14.640 not cast them, and I was like, but I want 0:06:14.640 --> 0:06:18.320 to she hulk that can crush my head with her thighs, 0:06:18.320 --> 0:06:21.040 Like that's what I want to see, and um, anyways, 0:06:21.160 --> 0:06:24.440 I think that's good representation having different body types absolutely, 0:06:24.440 --> 0:06:26.680 for like, let that look, let me taste up. If 0:06:26.680 --> 0:06:31.040 the dude don't want a woman with thick throw with 0:06:31.080 --> 0:06:35.320 you in your life, yeah, we'll have different body types 0:06:35.400 --> 0:06:37.240 up there. That would be great. So we started a 0:06:37.240 --> 0:06:39.400 podcast with what We're sinking out about? Jay? What are 0:06:39.400 --> 0:06:41.520 you sinking out about? This? For me, it was the 0:06:41.520 --> 0:06:44.360 announcement of the d twenty three shows. But on top 0:06:44.400 --> 0:06:46.880 of that, it's not even really comic book and nerdy stuff. 0:06:46.880 --> 0:06:50.240 It's this Little Brother album that came out made The 0:06:50.279 --> 0:06:52.640 Loyal Watch album has been so dope. I've never played 0:06:52.640 --> 0:06:56.480 something and repeat so many times in my life in 0:06:56.480 --> 0:06:58.920 my life. And also, I just saw the Titan season 0:06:58.920 --> 0:07:01.039 two trailer. Now in the Fanta season one but I 0:07:01.080 --> 0:07:03.440 was like, okay, y'all got me with this one? You 0:07:03.560 --> 0:07:05.159 got me with that? Seems to be like the general 0:07:05.160 --> 0:07:08.360 consensus is people like, oh, I wasn't no season one 0:07:08.440 --> 0:07:10.320 the season dude, this is this one gotta look like 0:07:10.360 --> 0:07:12.160 heat right here. Well, because I'm a death stroke fan, 0:07:12.200 --> 0:07:14.040 So anytime you bring death Stroke in, as long as 0:07:14.040 --> 0:07:15.760 you can do them justice, I'm good with it, and 0:07:15.800 --> 0:07:17.920 East Time Morale seems to be a good choice for them, 0:07:17.920 --> 0:07:20.080 the way they got him looking like Slade Wilson. Uh, 0:07:20.160 --> 0:07:22.120 it's just a matter of seeing what they do in 0:07:22.160 --> 0:07:25.200 the series. Because the whole tightened series, if you haven't 0:07:25.200 --> 0:07:27.920 seen it, it is literally just how Dick Grayson becomes 0:07:28.040 --> 0:07:30.040 night Wing. That is literally a whole pot of the show. 0:07:30.480 --> 0:07:31.960 At the end of the day, it's just Dick Grayson's 0:07:31.960 --> 0:07:34.000 evolution in the night Wing, but we have to have 0:07:34.080 --> 0:07:36.440 these other steps along the way. So I mean, I'm 0:07:36.480 --> 0:07:38.040 a fan. I'm a fan of what the DC universe 0:07:38.120 --> 0:07:41.520 is trying to do minus Swamp thing. So because Wolf 0:07:41.640 --> 0:07:44.480 that was rough, But you didn't like Swamping. Hell No, 0:07:45.600 --> 0:07:48.239 I didn't. Because it didn't. I understand it got canceled early, 0:07:48.640 --> 0:07:50.560 and I understand that also there was a lot of 0:07:50.640 --> 0:07:53.320 interference from Warner Brothers from studio, but the show didn't 0:07:53.320 --> 0:07:56.000 have an identity. You brought James wanting to make a 0:07:56.040 --> 0:07:58.960 horror show, so by that, you know, by that standard, 0:07:58.960 --> 0:08:01.680 I was automatically in. But then you saw the first 0:08:01.680 --> 0:08:04.880 episode it was horror based. Second episode was like, all right, 0:08:05.000 --> 0:08:07.960 this is this exposition now, But then it switched over 0:08:07.960 --> 0:08:10.720 and it became more about aby R Cane as opposed 0:08:10.760 --> 0:08:14.400 to swamp Thing, and I'm like, I don't need the 0:08:14.440 --> 0:08:17.240 story of aby Ar Cane. This is not her show. 0:08:18.000 --> 0:08:20.880 It's about swamp thing. And then I again with it 0:08:20.960 --> 0:08:23.280 being cut. I understand, but they were doing so many 0:08:23.320 --> 0:08:25.040 things that where they knew they were cut, they were 0:08:25.080 --> 0:08:27.120 setting up like, hey, we might get a season two. 0:08:27.200 --> 0:08:30.520 No you're not. You set up so much unnecessarily, so 0:08:30.720 --> 0:08:34.160 that frustrated me with that dzang, that's cool and we 0:08:34.200 --> 0:08:38.080 gotta do a swamp thing, you know that that was good. 0:08:38.480 --> 0:08:41.360 I guess for me the big thing I was geeking 0:08:41.360 --> 0:08:43.480 out about it. It has been like a good music 0:08:43.559 --> 0:08:45.720 drop because you had a little brother, let's not forget 0:08:45.720 --> 0:08:53.240 Missy Elliott Rady and then uh, there's so much like 0:08:53.280 --> 0:08:55.600 it's just been lots of music too in the summer 0:08:55.679 --> 0:08:59.600 strong too, So that's definitely been fun. I think the 0:09:00.240 --> 0:09:03.160 personal thing I've been learned out about is uh, Naomi 0:09:03.720 --> 0:09:09.640 is really in the PJ mask and like it's it's 0:09:09.679 --> 0:09:12.560 been her life. But it's been real interesting to watch 0:09:13.160 --> 0:09:16.320 because it's the first time of like watching her for 0:09:16.320 --> 0:09:19.839 the first time experience like fandom where it's like, oh, 0:09:20.000 --> 0:09:22.760 like I'm into this and I want every piece of this, 0:09:22.920 --> 0:09:25.600 I want every juice of it. And then I then 0:09:25.640 --> 0:09:28.360 I kind of started getting like hyper philosophical with they 0:09:28.360 --> 0:09:29.920 where it was like, oh, p J. Mask is like 0:09:30.440 --> 0:09:33.560 you know superheroes on training wheels for kids, because they're 0:09:33.600 --> 0:09:37.400 like getting like the archetypes, the enemies, they like the 0:09:37.440 --> 0:09:40.920 tropes and so like, I'm really excited to you. As 0:09:40.960 --> 0:09:44.880 we head into uh sp October, get a Surpriser with 0:09:44.920 --> 0:09:48.280 her little outlet outfit. My daughter loves it to My 0:09:48.400 --> 0:09:51.720 daughter is going crazy about I had a DVD they 0:09:51.720 --> 0:09:53.360 sent me. Wanted the company send me one. I didn't 0:09:53.400 --> 0:09:56.080 even remember requesting it, and I faced time my daughter. 0:09:56.120 --> 0:09:57.480 I was like I got something that She was like 0:09:57.480 --> 0:10:03.120 what I just mask?

I set up the bed and 0:10:09.120 --> 0:10:11.320 then I give her like p J Mass betting and 0:10:11.400 --> 0:10:13.480 like she kept like it was like a p J 0:10:13.640 --> 0:10:15.640 Mass pillow with all three of them on on it, 0:10:15.800 --> 0:10:18.920 like yo, and like she kept like fluffing her pillow 0:10:19.000 --> 0:10:22.280 and like looking at it and putting it Like I 0:10:22.320 --> 0:10:24.280 was like, Okay, well this is the first time, Like 0:10:24.360 --> 0:10:27.120 it's it's it's jumping from that. Like now she's at 0:10:27.120 --> 0:10:29.280 the age where like you can give them a gift 0:10:29.800 --> 0:10:34.080 and they they do appreciate, like they're like, I like 0:10:34.240 --> 0:10:37.320 this that that you did? Good dad? Yeah? Is she 0:10:37.400 --> 0:10:41.240 into Daniel Tiger? Now? Was she? She'll mention him? You 0:10:41.280 --> 0:10:47.240 know she she mentions him like yeah, like they definitely, 0:10:47.280 --> 0:10:49.760 you know, I know they're probably communicating about that at 0:10:49.800 --> 0:10:52.960 school because she mentions him, but she's not asking for 0:10:53.040 --> 0:10:55.400 him on the screen. And when Yeah, it was wild. 0:10:55.400 --> 0:10:57.080 We were in the car and she made me like 0:10:57.120 --> 0:10:59.599 she was. I was listening to you know, uh, you know, 0:10:59.800 --> 0:11:02.520 it's definitely getting real into sad boy faul. I've been 0:11:02.559 --> 0:11:04.640 listening to My Drake and Weekend on repeat, and she 0:11:04.720 --> 0:11:07.280 had her fingers in her ear and I was like, 0:11:07.679 --> 0:11:09.600 what's up, baby? Do you do you want to listen 0:11:09.600 --> 0:11:13.080 to something? And she's like yeah, p j MASK. I'm like, 0:11:13.160 --> 0:11:14.920 you want to listen to p JMS? You want to 0:11:14.960 --> 0:11:17.800 listen to the theme song? And she's like yeah, put on. 0:11:19.080 --> 0:11:22.560 Of course Spotify had the day. She was happy and 0:11:22.559 --> 0:11:24.120 then like I was like, oh, they have a whole 0:11:24.160 --> 0:11:28.000 album where people they're just nonsense songs based off of 0:11:28.000 --> 0:11:30.080 each of the characters, and she was jamming and I 0:11:30.120 --> 0:11:31.480 had to put my foot down. Was like, I can't 0:11:31.480 --> 0:11:33.600 listen to this bag. This is a rap. We're going 0:11:33.600 --> 0:11:39.480 back to Drake. We're going back to Drake. How dare you? UM? 0:11:39.720 --> 0:11:41.839 The thing that I'm geeking out about, I guess we're 0:11:41.840 --> 0:11:43.960 all doing personal things is a personal thing that I 0:11:44.000 --> 0:11:48.839 started to do was TMS, which is transcranial um stimulation. 0:11:48.960 --> 0:11:52.000 People do it for depression and PTSD. I've known about 0:11:52.000 --> 0:11:56.080 it for years, um and actually Neil Brennan talks I 0:11:56.080 --> 0:11:58.280 think he talks about it in his special we He 0:11:58.400 --> 0:12:02.080 and I both uh did a different treatment before that 0:12:02.080 --> 0:12:04.400 that we both hated UM at the same doctor. And 0:12:04.440 --> 0:12:07.480 then I've been wanting to do TMS, which they essentially 0:12:07.520 --> 0:12:10.880 stimulates like electrodes. They stimulate your head um if you 0:12:10.920 --> 0:12:14.439 suffer from depression. They also do it for anxiety as well. 0:12:14.640 --> 0:12:19.439 And UM, yeah, it used to be really expensive. Now 0:12:19.960 --> 0:12:22.800 it's covered by insurance or there's places that will work 0:12:22.840 --> 0:12:26.160 with you, so it's like not as expensive. UM. But anyways, 0:12:26.160 --> 0:12:28.080 just really cool. I've had to go in every single day, 0:12:28.640 --> 0:12:30.600 every Monday through Friday. I go in like every day 0:12:30.640 --> 0:12:34.040 Monday through Friday for six weeks and I'm hitting my 0:12:34.120 --> 0:12:37.000 six week. So to me, that's really dope that we 0:12:37.040 --> 0:12:39.600 live in a time that you can what's the feeling 0:12:39.679 --> 0:12:42.160 like from from then to now? For you, it just 0:12:42.240 --> 0:12:45.400 feels like I spiral less, Like you know, we live 0:12:45.400 --> 0:12:47.800 in a really tough the world is tough in general, 0:12:47.840 --> 0:12:50.880 and everything on the news is just so devastating. So me, 0:12:50.960 --> 0:12:53.880 I'm very empathetic, Like I'm an EmPATH, Like I just 0:12:53.960 --> 0:12:56.960 feel that entirely, and I've been super open even on 0:12:57.000 --> 0:13:00.720 this podcast about depression and but the own that we're in, 0:13:00.840 --> 0:13:04.480 you're at the mercy, Like you can have a perfect audition. 0:13:04.520 --> 0:13:06.640 I know, because I had a friend of mine who 0:13:06.679 --> 0:13:09.000 literally had like they called him and we're like, you 0:13:09.080 --> 0:13:11.720 were perfect, Like that was the best audition that we've seen, 0:13:11.720 --> 0:13:14.560 and they still went with someone else, because that happens 0:13:14.679 --> 0:13:17.360 sometimes they want someone else or they just and that 0:13:17.400 --> 0:13:19.760 can that can be soul crushing, That can be so 0:13:19.760 --> 0:13:21.559 soul crushing that it was like there's nothing else I 0:13:21.600 --> 0:13:23.960 could have done more, And so you just have to 0:13:24.080 --> 0:13:28.520 kind of be resilient, be resilient. And so for me, Um, 0:13:28.559 --> 0:13:31.480 I have found that it helps me spiral less. It 0:13:31.520 --> 0:13:33.880 feels like I was actually telling an open mic eagle 0:13:33.920 --> 0:13:35.560 this because if you and I were talking about him 0:13:35.559 --> 0:13:39.720 before this, it feels like um. At first, it feels 0:13:39.720 --> 0:13:42.560 like taps on your head and just like someone taking 0:13:42.600 --> 0:13:44.440 their nail, kind of like just tapping one spot in 0:13:44.480 --> 0:13:47.120 your head. But as they increase the intensity, which me 0:13:47.200 --> 0:13:49.920 I have a high pain threshold so I can handle it, 0:13:49.920 --> 0:13:52.040 it kind of feels a little bit like someone tattooing 0:13:52.040 --> 0:13:55.160 in your head. Not in a bad way though, just 0:13:55.200 --> 0:13:58.360 like an electric h That's what it feels like. Do 0:13:58.440 --> 0:14:00.160 you remember those games they used to have in your 0:14:00.160 --> 0:14:04.120 okay where you had to hold the handrails and it's 0:14:04.360 --> 0:14:07.160 vibrated super hard. Yeah, kind of like that. It's kind 0:14:07.160 --> 0:14:09.240 of like that. And you want to know something really 0:14:09.280 --> 0:14:11.760 funny if he is that they'll play something for you 0:14:11.800 --> 0:14:14.760 while it's only like a couple of minutes really, but 0:14:14.760 --> 0:14:16.840 they'll play something on Netflix or whatever for you if 0:14:16.840 --> 0:14:18.000 you want to watch it. And I always say no 0:14:18.040 --> 0:14:20.360 because I just want to meditate during that time. But 0:14:20.440 --> 0:14:22.480 some when my first day I came in, was watching 0:14:22.560 --> 0:14:24.680 Ricky Gervases stand up and I was like, oh, I 0:14:24.720 --> 0:14:29.080 feel like this is gonna undo my t I was like, 0:14:29.120 --> 0:14:30.560 I don't want to. They're like, do you want to 0:14:30.560 --> 0:14:32.640 finish watching this? I was like no, And then the 0:14:32.680 --> 0:14:34.840 person like that. I came in the next day, They're 0:14:34.840 --> 0:14:37.960 watching Queer. I'm like, this is much better. But yeah, 0:14:38.000 --> 0:14:39.200 I was like, no, I do not want to watch 0:14:39.240 --> 0:14:41.720 trick or device what I'm trying to undo. Somebody watching 0:14:41.720 --> 0:14:47.520 the Quentin Tarantino watching Django, you like, I just I 0:14:47.560 --> 0:14:49.720 don't want somebody to just constantly are you triggered? Are 0:14:49.760 --> 0:14:52.320 you triggered the whole time of it? Anyway? So I 0:14:52.320 --> 0:14:55.000 thought that was cool. Um, kind of guinea pigging myself. 0:14:55.000 --> 0:14:57.000 But you can research it if it's something that you 0:14:57.040 --> 0:15:00.960 think that you might benefit from. So um, yeah, all right, 0:15:01.000 --> 0:15:03.520 well let's jump right into it. We're gonna jump right 0:15:03.600 --> 0:15:06.360 down and do the Nitt degree we normally do. Lead 0:15:06.480 --> 0:15:09.360 let off to a little public publication history and that 0:15:09.480 --> 0:15:11.960 early stuff. Then we'll probably kick to a break before 0:15:11.960 --> 0:15:14.120 we really jump into it. But first off and foremost, 0:15:14.200 --> 0:15:16.960 we're talking about the Eternals. And the Eternals are a 0:15:17.040 --> 0:15:20.120 fictional rates of humanoids appearing in the American comic books 0:15:19.800 --> 0:15:23.680 published by Marvel Comics. They're described as an offshoot of 0:15:23.680 --> 0:15:27.320 the evolutionary process that created sentient life on Earth. Original 0:15:27.400 --> 0:15:31.320 instigators of this process, the alien Celestials, intended the Eternals 0:15:31.360 --> 0:15:35.000 to be defenders of Earth, which leads to the inevitability 0:15:35.080 --> 0:15:39.000 of war against their destructive counterparts, the Deviants. The Eternals 0:15:39.000 --> 0:15:41.320 were created by Jack Kirby and made their first appearance 0:15:41.320 --> 0:15:45.840 and the Eternals number one in July of nineteen seventy six. So, ja, 0:15:45.920 --> 0:15:49.120 can you talk us through the So they're humanoid appearing, 0:15:49.200 --> 0:15:52.240 but they're not humans. All right, here's the best analogy 0:15:52.240 --> 0:15:55.560 for you. You remember that movie Prometheus. Yeah, remember how 0:15:55.600 --> 0:15:58.240 it was where the giants basically took humans and all 0:15:58.240 --> 0:16:00.840 that stuff to make the Xenomorphs. They were basically trying 0:16:00.880 --> 0:16:03.760 to make better humans. They wanted to make humans that 0:16:03.800 --> 0:16:06.200 were better to be able to protect humans on Earth. 0:16:06.920 --> 0:16:10.120 So they did these experiments, used these cosmic radiations and 0:16:10.160 --> 0:16:12.520 gave them all. They all of them have the same abilities, 0:16:12.920 --> 0:16:15.800 but it's just varied as to which can do so. 0:16:15.960 --> 0:16:19.080 To an extent, they are immortal, but some aren't. You know. 0:16:19.080 --> 0:16:22.000 They all have super strength, They can flies, shoot cosmic 0:16:22.040 --> 0:16:24.880 beams out, things like that. So they basically enhanced all 0:16:24.920 --> 0:16:28.000 these different individuals, but depending on what their proximity is 0:16:28.040 --> 0:16:31.080 to certain things, it varies. They can teleport, they can transmutate, 0:16:31.160 --> 0:16:34.080 they can do all these different things. So you're talking 0:16:34.120 --> 0:16:39.360 about the race that ended up spawning in humans, mutants 0:16:39.360 --> 0:16:42.640 and going on forward. So that's what they are, and 0:16:42.680 --> 0:16:46.400 it's just it also ties a lot into various mythologies, 0:16:46.480 --> 0:16:50.160 Greek and Romans. Yeah, so actually Jack Kirby was working 0:16:50.200 --> 0:16:53.640 on New Gods at d C. He had left Marvel 0:16:53.720 --> 0:16:56.080 Comics and he went to work at uh d C 0:16:56.280 --> 0:16:58.640 and made New Gods, but then it got canceled until 0:16:58.680 --> 0:17:00.920 he returned to the Eternal So wonder if that would 0:17:00.920 --> 0:17:04.960 have influenced well that you can see, Yeah, yeah, you 0:17:04.960 --> 0:17:07.160 can see the influence in a lot of different crossover 0:17:07.200 --> 0:17:09.760 type things from the artists and the creators. Again, you'll 0:17:09.800 --> 0:17:11.879 go to the New Gods and the Eternals, You'll go 0:17:11.960 --> 0:17:16.120 to Apocalypse and I mean you know dark Side and Thanos, 0:17:16.200 --> 0:17:20.359 You'll go to even Deadpool and you know death Stroke. 0:17:20.640 --> 0:17:22.800 So you'll always see those when the creators go because 0:17:22.960 --> 0:17:25.920 those different influences different places. But yeah, also the fact 0:17:25.960 --> 0:17:29.040 that you use this lore in this mythology again, Thor's 0:17:29.080 --> 0:17:31.720 mythology is based off Norse mythology. When you go to 0:17:31.760 --> 0:17:33.879 Moon Night is based off of Egyptian mythology, So you 0:17:33.960 --> 0:17:35.880 just utilize that and just change it over a little 0:17:35.880 --> 0:17:39.119 bit to add the superpowered elements behind it. Yeah. So 0:17:39.160 --> 0:17:42.560 it says when the Celestials visited Earth five million years 0:17:42.600 --> 0:17:46.280 ago and performed genetic experiments on early proto humanity, they 0:17:46.280 --> 0:17:50.480 created two divergent races, the long lived Eternals and the 0:17:50.560 --> 0:17:54.680 genetically unstable and monstrously grotesque deviance. I just love that. 0:17:54.680 --> 0:17:57.639 That's like yeaheah, the way they broke it down, but 0:17:57.720 --> 0:18:01.560 also like just hopes that we see is like you 0:18:01.600 --> 0:18:05.680 create this like perfect beat and then this like yeah, 0:18:05.880 --> 0:18:08.640 I wish it's bad that we both did something nobody could. 0:18:11.440 --> 0:18:16.400 What is the igor whatever? Yeah. Yeah, So these experience 0:18:16.480 --> 0:18:19.960 also led to the capacity for superpowered mutations in humans. 0:18:20.000 --> 0:18:21.760 I guess what I didn't know is you're saying that 0:18:21.800 --> 0:18:25.840 the Eternals led to X men. They primarily led to 0:18:25.880 --> 0:18:29.400 the inhumans, but said as mutants if you go further 0:18:29.440 --> 0:18:31.800 down mutations and whatnot, and that's what they're probably gonna 0:18:31.840 --> 0:18:37.280 do in the movie. You think that introduce they're going 0:18:37.320 --> 0:18:39.440 to utilize this because this way you can say, how 0:18:39.520 --> 0:18:41.440 was the mutations? They lie dormant and a lot of 0:18:41.480 --> 0:18:44.280 people because even the story with the Eternals, they end 0:18:44.320 --> 0:18:46.159 up losing their memories. Spright ends up doing this thing 0:18:46.160 --> 0:18:47.960 that makes them lose their memory. They forget who they are, 0:18:48.240 --> 0:18:50.600 so they live regular lives, with the exception of Icarus, 0:18:50.600 --> 0:18:52.639 who kind of remembers. He's like, I think I was 0:18:53.280 --> 0:18:56.080 something else. And then eventually something happens when they all 0:18:56.119 --> 0:18:59.320 remember and it it unlocks that latent dormant Jean with 0:18:59.400 --> 0:19:01.159 the X Men. And this way you can do it 0:19:01.240 --> 0:19:03.760 is everyone's had it and then all of a sudden, 0:19:03.800 --> 0:19:08.160 the snap opened it up right right, So I didn't 0:19:08.200 --> 0:19:10.880 know that they also so they also performed this experiment 0:19:10.920 --> 0:19:13.520 on other planets such as the Cree and Scroll that 0:19:13.560 --> 0:19:16.399 we saw from Captain Marvel as well as Spider Man 0:19:16.400 --> 0:19:19.359 Far from Home. Remember Ben Mendelsohner process with them. He 0:19:19.480 --> 0:19:23.520 was curate, WI, yes, you're so right, which that is 0:19:23.520 --> 0:19:27.880 now a mess? Uh. Look. According to Sony, the post 0:19:27.960 --> 0:19:30.760 credit scenes never happened. That's pretty much how you're going 0:19:30.840 --> 0:19:32.879 to do that movie. The post credit scenes never happened. 0:19:32.920 --> 0:19:36.000 Everything else was cool. Okay, okay, we have to take 0:19:36.040 --> 0:19:38.080 a really quick break. We're going to hop into more 0:19:38.080 --> 0:19:48.919 of the history of the Eternals right after this. And 0:19:49.119 --> 0:19:51.639 we are back still here with Jay Washington. So I 0:19:51.680 --> 0:19:54.439 know that there are a lot of maternals. Like what 0:19:54.600 --> 0:20:02.080 number are we thinking? Uh? A lot? But the movie 0:20:02.119 --> 0:20:08.160 will have how many main seven? About eight or nine? 0:20:08.800 --> 0:20:11.439 Eight or nine? So can you walk us through? So 0:20:11.480 --> 0:20:15.600 we're gonna have Athena, who's the daughter of Zuras. She's 0:20:15.600 --> 0:20:18.040 also she was also known as a Zura. So that's 0:20:18.080 --> 0:20:19.920 being played by Angelo and Jolie. She had to change 0:20:19.960 --> 0:20:25.959
