He was not a hero. 42 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,359 Speaker 4: And I'm like, okay, guys, so now Robin Hood was 43 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 4: the bad guy and actually the rich baron fucking robber 44 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,799 Speaker 4: barons were the good guys. I'm intrigued to see how 45 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 4: this goes, but I'm interested. 46 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 3: I'm interested. 47 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 1: Up next Sebastian Stan in talks, but it certainly seems 48 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:39,360 Speaker 1: like there's a lot of momentum for the very sparse 49 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 1: reporting to join Robert Pattinson in The Batman too, Matt 50 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:47,079 Speaker 1: Reeves follow up to the wonderfully dark and violent The Batman. 51 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 5: Yes, gosh wow. 52 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 4: Okay, So there has been since Variety dropped this news, 53 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 4: there has seemingly been confirmations from Deadline that it is 54 00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 4: happening that this deal has been signed the Biggest Room currently, 55 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,360 Speaker 4: which I think makes a lot of sense because we 56 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 4: know they like to cast people based on their past performances. 57 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 4: It looks like the rap the Internet chatter and rumor 58 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 4: Mill at the moment says he has been cast as 59 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:14,800 Speaker 4: Harvey Dent and in order to play two face, which 60 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 4: makes a lot of sense, not only because obviously we 61 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 4: had the complicated good bad of Bucky and that kind 62 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 4: of torn between your two lives, but because Sabbatian Stan 63 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 4: was recently in the really interesting movie A Different Man, 64 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,799 Speaker 4: where he will fall prosthetics. So I think the fact 65 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 4: that he had a prosthetic performance that was then looked 66 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 4: upon as an Oscar performance potentially was in the Award 67 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 4: season conversation was also a very interesting, complicated, dark, and 68 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 4: celebrated movie about disability. All of that makes him a 69 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 4: great contender. I think to play Harvey Dent, though I 70 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 4: would love to see someone with actual facial scarification get 71 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 4: to play two Face, because I think that would bring 72 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 4: something really interesting to it. This is very wild casting. 73 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 4: If the casting of Scarlet J. Hanson is also true. 74 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 4: We're having the Avengers to DC move over here and 75 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 4: they are saying that she will be playing the female 76 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 4: lead from Mask of the Phantasm, which, if you know 77 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 4: who that character is. 78 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 3: Would be a huge deal. 79 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 4: I am kind of guided Zoe Kravitz isn't coming back, 80 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 4: but it continues the movie tradition of Batman always having 81 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 4: a different love interest in every movie. He can't keep 82 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 4: a girl tied down because of all the drama. Very 83 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 4: intrigued to see if this happens. What does this movie 84 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 4: look like? Does it exist? Will it ever get made? 85 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 3: I don't know. 86 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 4: I feel like I've been waiting one hundred years. But 87 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 4: if you haven't gone back and watched The Batman recently, 88 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 4: go back and watch its fucking masterpiece. 89 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 3: I can't wait for the second one. 90 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 1: Whatever happens, let's take a quick break and we'll be 91 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 1: back with more news. 92 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, and we're back. 93 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:53,040 Speaker 1: According to Variety, Tom Cruise visited the upcoming Sean Levy 94 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:59,279 Speaker 1: directed Star Wars Starfighter set and ended up filming part 95 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 1: of the Lightsaber duel. Part of it was shot by Tom. 96 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: How cool is that? Is the quote from Sean Levy. 97 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,279 Speaker 1: So Sean Levy has confirmed that this happened. Tom Cruise 98 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: visited the set, jump behind the camera and apparently just 99 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 1: fucking pushed the brazy the main cinematographer and potentially the 100 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 1: cameraman aside, and. 101 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 3: Just started shooting shooting stuff. Is this not like a 102 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:28,039 Speaker 3: guild issue? Like, don't we know that? That's he's definitely. 103 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 1: Not getting credit for that, as long as he's not 104 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 1: getting paid, Like, yeah, we don't need him to get royalty. 105 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: The cinematic camera person's like credits. I think it's fine. 106 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:44,599 Speaker 4: But I'm also interested because we have been seeing Tom 107 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 4: Cruise take more of this space as the advocate. He's 108 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 4: the guy who makes movies, make sure they get made. 109 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 4: He's the one who keeps cinema going. So I've been 110 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:57,840 Speaker 4: expecting him to take a step into the behind the camera. 111 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 3: Space a little more, and with his upcoming. 112 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 4: Movie, the dig Doug movie The Koran is filming and 113 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:07,719 Speaker 4: he's the star of it. That looks like a really 114 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 4: weird indie movie. So maybe this is kind of a 115 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 4: tease that we could see Tom Cruise doing something like that, 116 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:17,039 Speaker 4: maybe even in the lucasfilm space. But also how pissed 117 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 4: off would you be if you were that cinematographer and 118 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 4: you'd been prepping that shot like all day. 119 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:26,480 Speaker 1: West, there's there's you can imagine a different ways this went. 120 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 1: I think you're probably I don't know, I'd probably be 121 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 1: pretty annoyed of all of a sudden swans in and 122 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,839 Speaker 1: is like you're doing it all wrong. Hold on, give 123 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:40,039 Speaker 1: me the handheld, get in there. I will say that 124 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:43,239 Speaker 1: I agree with you that Tom has. We talked about 125 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 1: this on our top Gun conversation. I think Tom takes 126 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 1: our mission impossible excuse me dead reckoning conversation. I think 127 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 1: Tom takes his savior of the box office role semi 128 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,719 Speaker 1: self appointed but also semi foistered on him by the industry. 129 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 2: I think he takes that role quite serious. 130 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 3: I agree he is like. 131 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 2: Our non amc Nicole kidman, you know that way ironic. 132 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 1: He loves Yeah, he loves the movies, and so yes, 133 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 1: I agree with you. I would not be surprised at 134 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 1: all to see him either direct or produce, or even 135 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 1: do something like he is truly a lover of the craft, 136 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 1: exactly do something like become a cameraman or do something. 137 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 5: I was gonna say that. 138 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 3: There was a movie recently. I think it was Paul Gmt. 139 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 4: He was the cinematographer or something, or maybe it was 140 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 4: the other one who I always get mixed up with 141 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 4: Paul Gmt. But yes, there was a there was an 142 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 4: actor who very famously became a cinematographer in a recent 143 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 4: popular movie. I think we could see it happen with 144 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 4: Tom Jason. If you were gonna let Tom Cruise be 145 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 4: in charge of any franchise IP made, unmade, what would 146 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 4: you put him in charge of? 147 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 3: Like what is the ultimate Tom Cruise movie? 148 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 4: It's gotta be action. But like, how do we give 149 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 4: him back that? What does he do IRAQ that gives 150 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 4: him that new mission? Impossible because he definitely does not 151 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 4: have that post dead reckoning. 152 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 2: So I've gotten really into back into my detective novel reading. Yeah, 153 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 2: I love it. I love a noir, I love a 154 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 2: genre novel. 155 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 1: Thereat Joe I'd writes these great uh series of books, 156 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: the first one being High Five about like a LA 157 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:35,320 Speaker 1: Area private detective lives in Long Beach shitty a shitty 158 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:40,080 Speaker 1: like Audi but that's souped up inside and basically like 159 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 1: solve street level like crimes. I think Tom cruise genre 160 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 1: detective action genre is something that he'd be interested. But 161 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 1: you never know what Tom, because he loves a lot 162 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 1: of different kinds of stuff. But I think something genre 163 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:55,080 Speaker 1: he does. 164 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 4: I love that because that kind of leans into his 165 00:08:57,800 --> 00:08:59,720 Speaker 4: mission impossible, but it's a little different. 166 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 3: I was actually gonna go for something kind of similar. 167 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 4: There is this really great book series about this They're 168 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 4: old about this detective called Matt Helm, I wrote quite 169 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,080 Speaker 4: extensively by Donald Hamilton. 170 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 3: They're from the kind of like fifties. 171 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 4: Sixties, and the books were really popular and he was 172 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 4: kind of a James Bond esque spy, but in the 173 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 4: books he's like a brutal ass, cold ass killer, like 174 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 4: noir style, shooting people in the head. The movies ended 175 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 4: up getting made in the rat pack era as these 176 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,439 Speaker 4: kind of proto Austin Powers movies that are really funny 177 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,560 Speaker 4: and just so entertaining, and also one of the first movies, 178 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 4: if not the first, to ever have a post credit scene. 179 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 4: Plus The Wrecking Crew one of the last movies. That 180 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,560 Speaker 4: was the last movie that Sharon Tate started. So there's 181 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 4: all this cool history, but those movies do not. When 182 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 4: I was rereading the books, the books are so noari 183 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:52,960 Speaker 4: and dark. I want to see Tom get to do 184 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 4: something like that, but it's not military. 185 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 3: I want to see him on a street level. 186 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 4: I want to see Regge John Page running through you know, 187 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,080 Speaker 4: Dulstone and like solving a fucking crime, like give the 188 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 4: man a job. I finally watched Black Bag, Like give 189 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 4: that fucking man a job, like it's O a jew. 190 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 4: He doesn't not have the talent, Like he doesn't the talent. Yes, 191 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:15,439 Speaker 4: so I'm excited. I'm excited. Let's see what happens. But 192 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 4: let's talk about the next news, because this one is 193 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 4: a big, big deal for us. 194 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: So this is sad news, but also news that we 195 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: kind of knew. We were just waiting for the official 196 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: announcement the Blade. This is still a rumor, but it 197 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:34,080 Speaker 1: certainly seems on solid footing. According a superhero hype, the 198 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 1: Blade solo movie has been canceled, but Blade will be 199 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: introduced in a Midnight Suns movie to be to be 200 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:46,559 Speaker 1: mentioned later. Of course, maherschel Ali was announced as Blade 201 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 1: too much fanfare in twenty nineteen. There's a lot of 202 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:55,840 Speaker 1: a lot of obstacles between then and now, including the 203 00:10:55,880 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 1: two devastating simultaneous strikes, a pandemic, and also so a 204 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:04,080 Speaker 1: lot of reporting about script problems around the Blade franchise, 205 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: which is apparently what kept Mehersala from. 206 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 2: Diving in with both feet. 207 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 1: So it's certainly we've been waiting for this because it 208 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 1: certainly seemed as if it was heading that way, and 209 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 1: sadly it appears that this is what's gonna happen. 210 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 2: Blade solo movie. 211 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,600 Speaker 4: Was it come out very gutting to me. I think 212 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,680 Speaker 4: it's an absolute miss. I also will say, in the 213 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 4: context of other conversations we've been having, like our recent 214 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 4: heated rivalry conversation which you can listen to on like 215 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:37,079 Speaker 4: our Christmas catch up episode, that conversation of authenticity seems 216 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 4: to be a big issue they were having around Blade 217 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 4: because the people they actually hired to write Blade were legit, 218 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 4: Like the first woman who wrote the script had worked 219 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 4: on Watchman, was a black theater producer, was a black 220 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:49,959 Speaker 4: theater writer, and she came to them and said, hey, 221 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 4: here's my work. This is a script that I've written 222 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:54,319 Speaker 4: that I care about, and this is why you hired me, 223 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 4: right And Marvel said, no, there's not enough action. So 224 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,319 Speaker 4: then she got fired then, and it starts happening more 225 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 4: and more where I think that they couldn't combine how 226 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 4: to make an iconic Blade movie the way Raygan and 227 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 4: Coogler had made an iconic black Panther movie. And I 228 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 4: think that it started like getting more and more into 229 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 4: a kind of generic Marvel movie. I think it's so 230 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 4: sad because Blade could be such an iconic character. If 231 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 4: you will, in my opinion, I say, carsh John Boyeger 232 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 4: set in London where Blade was originally raised by a 233 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,560 Speaker 4: bunch of sex workers, and fucking make a good horror movie. 234 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 3: That's an unbelievable seventies setup. You can do it. 235 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 4: We've seen John in they cloned Tyrone. He can do 236 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 4: the black exploitation inspired vibe. Like to me, you gotta 237 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:38,439 Speaker 4: start and do a totally new vision. I understand the 238 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 4: appeal of nostalgia, So I'm sure we will see Wesley 239 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 4: Snipes again as Blade in Doomsday and Secret Wars. But 240 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 4: I will say Midnight Suns movie makes sense to me. 241 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 4: Marvel Horror movie the game was really popular. 242 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 3: Team still playing game. 243 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 4: You got a team you can build to it essentially 244 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 4: act as your Horror Avengers. There's a way to introduce 245 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,720 Speaker 4: new characters, different versions of here. We could also maybe 246 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 4: get some kind of like I've been waiting for them 247 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 4: to introduce like a. 248 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:07,200 Speaker 3: Brother Voodoo type character. 249 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,959 Speaker 4: They've they've they've played around with that, but they haven't 250 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:11,079 Speaker 4: done a good job yet. 251 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 3: So I'm interested to see what we could also see. 252 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 4: You know, this could be a great place for Magic 253 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,680 Speaker 4: or someone a man thing who we already met. Where 254 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,559 Speaker 4: will by Night all of those great characters. It's nice 255 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 4: to think there will be a space and there will 256 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 4: be a place for Blade. I think Marvel will forever 257 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 4: regret fumbling the Herschela Ali, but I think that we 258 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 4: need to move on and actually get a Blade movie 259 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 4: out there for the fans. So if this is what 260 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 4: it takes, Unfortunately, this is what it takes. But also, guys, 261 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:40,439 Speaker 4: without all those delays, we never would have got Delroy 262 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 4: Lindo in Sinners. 263 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:43,559 Speaker 3: We probably wouldn't have got Michael B. 264 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 4: Jordan in Sinners, like a lot of the people who 265 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,600 Speaker 4: definitely were in the conversation around Blade and that movie, 266 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 4: in that project, Delroy Lindo, we assumed he was gonna 267 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 4: play you know, Jamalabari, who is Blade's mentor character, who's 268 00:13:57,720 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 4: a jazz trumpetist. 269 00:13:59,000 --> 00:13:59,200 Speaker 3: You know. 270 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 4: So things happened that allowed us to then get, you know, 271 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:05,479 Speaker 4: this other incredible movie about black vampirism that was completely 272 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 4: original and not derivative. So in that way, I feel 273 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,560 Speaker 4: like Sinners is the gift that we got because we 274 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 4: didn't get this Blade movie. 275 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 3: But at the same time, like make a Blade movie, Marvel. 276 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:16,319 Speaker 3: It's not hard on. 277 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 1: The next week's episodes of X ray visional diving into 278 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 1: some of the content we missed. 279 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 5: Or mor holiday break.
