Let's 45 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 1: go to the previously on recap. First up, Miss Marvel 46 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 1: upcoming show on Disney Plus. It will highlight the Muslim 47 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:54,079 Speaker 1: American character who captured the hearts of Marvel Comics fans 48 00:02:54,919 --> 00:03:00,519 Speaker 1: since her debut several years back. The show version we'll 49 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 1: get a full theatrical release in Pakistan. Director Charmie obayd 50 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 1: Chenoi shared on Instagram this news, as well as the 51 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 1: release structure. It will be two episodes released together every 52 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: two weeks. This is great for fans in Pakistan and 53 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 1: in the main because Disney Plus is not available in Pakistan, 54 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,680 Speaker 1: so this will allow Pakistani all that needs is to 55 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: see the first Pakistani American Marvel superhero and I'm delighted 56 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 1: for them. Have any thoughts, Rosie, Yeah, I. 57 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 2: Think it's really cool. I love the idea of giving 58 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 2: Kamala even a bigger space, the biggest stage, your biggest screen, 59 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 2: figuratively and literally. And I think this hints at something 60 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 2: that I know we're going to talk about soon, which 61 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 2: is kind of like where the Marvel Disney Plus stuff stands. 62 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 2: But I think the fact that this is going into theaters. 63 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 2: It gives you a little hint of how important Kamala 64 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 2: Khan and all the Disney Plus characters are going to be. 65 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 1: It's going to be increasingly important. I think you're right 66 00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 1: about that. Next up it is, we're recording this on 67 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: May fourth. May the fourth be with you. It is 68 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 1: Star Wars Day, International Star Wars Day. And of course 69 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: Lucas and Disney released the latest Dobi Wan Kenobi trailer, 70 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 1: which looks really great. No bullshit, it looks great. I 71 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: thought it looked great. I got chills. 72 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 2: You like Star Wars, his' a the Star Wars.

This looks really great. 85 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:06,359 Speaker 2: I was just going to say, I think something that 86 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 2: we're really excited about that this trailer confirms, is like, 87 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 2: if you like Rebels, if you like the Star Wars comments, 88 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,040 Speaker 2: if you want to see that stuff on the screen 89 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:17,679 Speaker 2: in live action in a way that feels more central 90 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 2: to canon, that is what they're giving us with this trailer. 91 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 2: And I think that's very exciting. 92 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: And then of course shouts to Kamil Nan Johnny who 93 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: got some FaceTime in this trailer, and is that must 94 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:34,599 Speaker 1: be super super exciting.

I don't know about you, Rosie. 97 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: I thought it was the best episode of the series. 98 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:49,239 Speaker 2: I really liked how much they committed to the kind 99 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 2: of cosmic, adventurous Indiana Jones. Kind of that element works 100 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 2: a lot better to me than the last episode, which 101 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 2: was like trying to go for the more dramatic. This 102 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 2: was full superhero stuff and it yeah, we'll get into it, 103 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:09,599 Speaker 2: but there was a character Rock I was very excited 104 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 2: about that we guess yes, So I'm feeling good. I 105 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,160 Speaker 2: enjoyed it the ending. I have a lot of questions 106 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 2: about that. I'm excited question with you. So let's go that. 107 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: So we we open on omits toom Arthur Harrow has 108 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: Mark Slash Stephen's body pulled out of the pool of 109 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,040 Speaker 1: water and they rifle through his pockets and they find 110 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:32,839 Speaker 1: omits u shobpd, which of course Harrow really needed. Leila 111 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 1: watches from nearby as Harrow's followers kneel before him, and 112 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 1: then Harrow says, rhetorically, who wants to heal the world. 113 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 1: He's not looking for a debate. This is not like 114 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 1: a conversation that Arthur Harrow is looking to have at 115 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 1: this particular time. He's asking the question to ask it. 116 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 1: And then it's tyler Is Kane turns into a crocodile head, 117 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 1: the true form of omit. They leave. Layla steals over 118 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 1: to Mark's body and he's dead, folks, de e eighty 119 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: one hundred percent, he's gone. On Laila weeps, takes the 120 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:08,840 Speaker 1: scarab great foreshadowing here, takes the scaab which Harrow threw 121 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 1: down into Mark's dead body, and lets Mark slip back 122 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: into the water. As Harrow and his followers then hit 123 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: the open road, Laila follows. Unbeknownst to them, she's in disguise. 124 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 1: Harrow's followers come up to like an Egyptian army security checkpoint, 125 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 1: maybe the Eternal Police. I'm not up to date on 126 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 1: the internal security structure of Egypt, but it's some sort 127 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: of Egyptian armed forces that they meet, and Harrow is like, 128 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 1: guess what, guys, I'm gonna measure your souls right now, 129 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 1: and then he does this little thing with the cane. 130 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: Everybody there, Their souls get get weighed. Those found wanting 131 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: guess what, they die, They're gone, the flashes of purple light, 132 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 1: bye bye. And then like one guy, it turns out 133 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: he's fine. His soul has been weighed as hard as full. 134 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 1: He's okay. He can now go on and continue living, 135 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 1: and he becomes our her. Harrow's newest follower, Layla, of course, 136 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 1: is following, and her whole plan is like, whatever it takes, 137 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:11,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna kill this guy. Obviously that would cost her life. 138 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: Harrow is surrounded by his henchmen, his hench people, and 139 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 1: as she's about to pounce on Harrow, a corpse comes 140 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 1: to life and starts speaking her with the voice of 141 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 1: Tarott and Parow. It's like, don't do this, don't do this. 142 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 1: You need help. You can't do this alone. Here's what 143 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 1: you need to do. You need to find conscious Ushabti. 144 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 1: You need to break it so that Kanchu can is 145 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 1: freed from the figurine. Then when Mark comes back to 146 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 1: life into his own body, which is riddled with bullets, 147 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,680 Speaker 1: Kanshu can put the Moonlight suit on him and it 148 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 1: will keeal him. And then you know, you could be 149 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 1: my avatar if you want. 150 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 2: And then if you feel like it, if you feel like. 151 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 1: I know, I know from what you've seen it seems 152 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:03,679 Speaker 1: like maybe it's not a great deal to be the 153 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 1: avatar of of Anityy. But just think about it, you 154 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 1: know again, just raising it if you want to think 155 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 1: about it, and and so on. Harrow and Crew enter 156 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:18,079 Speaker 1: Ameit's tomb inside the Great Pyramid. Layla follows Inside the 157 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 1: god's avatars, the various avatars of the various Egyptian gods 158 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:24,080 Speaker 1: are just terrified. They don't know what to do. They 159 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 1: try to fight briefly, but Harow just like wipes the 160 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 1: floor with them. But that fight gives Layla the opening 161 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 1: to snatch conscousy shop you, which she does. Meanwhile, Harrow 162 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,560 Speaker 1: frees Omet who we now see is like a thirty 163 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 1: foot tall crocodile. Although it looks really cool. Amet looked 164 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 1: super cool, like we got like. 165 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 2: They saved the budget for Omit.

But did it 173 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 1: all for for Ahmit and Amo? It's like, you know what, 174 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 1: soul still unbalanced Arthur and Arthur is like, first of all, 175 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 1: incredible acting by Ethan Hawk, who is like just magnetic, 176 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 1: like all the emotion was in his eyes. His eyes 177 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 1: were like wet as he's dealing with Omits seeming rejection. 178 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 1: Just an incredible performance for him. So Amut is like listen, yeah, 179 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 1: your soul's still found wanting, and Harol's like great, you 180 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 1: know I tried my best.

And Amma says, no, 185 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 1: not for what you've done, which is i e. Kill 186 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 1: like maybe up to hundreds of people, maybe in the 187 00:10:56,520 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 1: low thousands, not sure about the actual number, but it's 188 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 1: for what you have yet to do. There. For you, 189 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:05,319 Speaker 1: Arthur Harrow, will remain alive because you're gonna be in 190 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 1: my service. You're gonna be my avatar, which again I 191 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:11,840 Speaker 1: understand it is kind of a bad deal, but just 192 00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:13,840 Speaker 1: think about it, but don't think about it too long 193 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,080 Speaker 1: because you've got to make a decision right now. And 194 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 1: I'm further on further says listen, I know that you're 195 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,599 Speaker 1: not a perfectly balanced avatar, but I had one of 196 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 1: those balanced avatars and what happened. I ended up trapped 197 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:30,079 Speaker 1: in the fucking New Shop Tea for two thousand years, 198 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 1: which was bad times. So you know, I'm outside the box. 199 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: Maybe somebody a little bit unbalanced is the way to 200 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 1: go here? What do you say? And Harrow I was like, yes, 201 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 1: of course, let's do it. Laila. Meanwhile, elsewhere in the temple, 202 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 1: stomps on conshoes you shopp tea. Now Contry is freed, 203 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: and he immediately can feel like Marc is dead. And 204 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: then these gods are just very, very grimy, it must 205 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 1: be said. He then tries to manipulate Laila into becoming 206 00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: his new avatar so they can defeat on It together, 207 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:05,719 Speaker 1: and Leila is like, you know, no, he's not one. 208 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 2: She's like, I didn't know ya, Like. 209 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 1: No, it seemed like a bad deal from Mark, and 210 00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,200 Speaker 1: also he like talks shit about it. Also, Stephen said 211 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 1: it was a really bad time. I don't think I'm 212 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:19,439 Speaker 1: gonna do it, and then conn she was like, fine, 213 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 1: I will go do it alone. I will fight. I'm 214 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:23,840 Speaker 1: a god to God over in the field of reeds, 215 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 1: in the land of the dead, people who make it 216 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:29,320 Speaker 1: all the way to heaven. The Egyptian version, Tara Wett 217 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 1: tells Mark that hey, you're cleansed. That's why you're here 218 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 1: in the field of reads. Your heart is full. Everything's great. Congrats. 219 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 1: Mark then asks, okay, well what about Stephen. Where's he? 220 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 1: And Tarah It's like he's gone, you know, he got purged, 221 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 1: he's over. He fell off the boat. He's trapped in 222 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: the sands of Duot, and that's kind of it for Steven. 223 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 1: But you're great, You're doing good. How about that? And 224 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:54,880 Speaker 1: Mark's like, h Stephen actually is the person who saved 225 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:57,079 Speaker 1: me from some of the most traumatic moments in my life, 226 00:12:57,600 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 1: and so I have to return the favor. I have 227 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 1: to go back and get up. So and then Taro 228 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 1: it's like, well, if you leave, you can't come back, 229 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 1: and Mark's like, I'm out. They go out there. Mark 230 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 1: go's out there to the sands of the Duot and 231 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 1: reunites with Steven. The personalities merge into one, and Mark 232 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: and Stephen returned to the body and back in the 233 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,439 Speaker 1: real world. Kantu feels immediately that Mark's body has come 234 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: back to life, and which is just in time, because 235 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 1: it looked a lot like Ahmet was about to mrk 236 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:28,080 Speaker 1: Big k Conchu Man was about to like wipe the 237 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 1: wipe the mat with conju. Conju makes Mark the same 238 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,320 Speaker 1: old deal, Hey, life or death? That's is that a 239 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: tough one? Is that a tough decision to make life 240 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: or death? Well, you protect the Travelers of the Night 241 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 1: is by Avatar and it's a yes. And then the 242 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 1: wraps Mark in the armor, the bullets pop out of 243 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 1: his chest, and the moon night is back. Mark and 244 00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 1: Stephen now a balance now like a like a folk 245 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:58,839 Speaker 1: music duo like Simon and Garfunkle, like perfectly blended there 246 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 1: the lie like you know, one one sings one line 247 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:04,560 Speaker 1: and the other comes and sings the other line, and 248 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 1: they're just like this packaged deal in Steven's words. Now 249 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 1: they go out to meet Conshou on the desert sands, 250 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 1: the sun setting majestically in the background. Stephen pops out 251 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:16,960 Speaker 1: and is like, hold on, so I got some questions 252 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 1: about this arrangement we have, and Con she's like, what 253 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 1: we have to fight Ahmat, Like what if the Omit thing? 254 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 1: And Stephen very wisely notes that, hey, you need us 255 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 1: to fight Omit meaning we have leverage now, meaning I 256 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 1: would like to strike our deal whatever that may be 257 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: right now. And so Con She's like, fine, okay, fuck it, 258 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: like I'll let you guys go. You guys will be 259 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 1: released once Amit is vanquished, and it's a deal. Back 260 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 1: in the tomb, Laila is trying to save one of 261 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 1: the wounded avatars of one of the deities I forget which, 262 00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 1: and the avatar tells Leila that to stop Omit, you're 263 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 1: gonna have to trap him in he human form, and 264 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 1: then he says unfortunately, there's not a lot of avatars 265 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:06,640 Speaker 1: left to do that. Then he goes, oh and then 266 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 1: he dies. And then Layla is at that point she 267 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 1: doesn't know what to do, and she realizes, oh, well, 268 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 1: you know the tarot her offer, it's looking a little 269 00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:20,720 Speaker 1: better right now, and so I'll do it. And so 270 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 1: she accepts Tarowit is super excited, is like, hey, great, 271 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 1: I've been thinking about some costumes for you, some you know, 272 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 1: for the Scarlet Scarab and your dad is going to 273 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 1: be so pleased. And she's like, well, yeah, your dad, 274 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:36,800 Speaker 1: I took him to the field of reeds. Now this suggests, 275 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 1: as we have talked about before, Rosie, that Layla's father 276 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 1: was once the Scarlet scareb. Yeah, i e. An avatar 277 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 1: of Taro Wet who then died in the God service 278 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 1: and was taken to the field of reads. I think 279 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 1: that that's pretty heavily suggested here, right. 280 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 2: I think so too, because the whole notion throughout the 281 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 2: series off the harrow, and I think Mock mentioned that 282 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 2: like her dad believed in the idea that God's walked 283 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 2: on the earth in the form of avatars, so it 284 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 2: would make sense that even if it was only momentarily 285 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 2: or to extend his life or to help Taroat in 286 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 2: some way, she seems to know him. And in the 287 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 2: comics Scarlet Scarab is a father's son mantle that's passed down, 288 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 2: so it would make sense that here it's the dad 289 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:27,080 Speaker 2: and then Talayla. And this is just so cool because 290 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 2: this seemed like a really deep cut, like is it 291 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 2: isn't it going to happen? So for them to go 292 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 2: like full on and then like out Wonder Woman eighty four, 293 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 2: Wonder Woman nineteen eighty four, I thought that was very impressive. 294 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 1: It was super super cool. As the costumes design is 295 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 1: really red, as we will talk about soon. Atop the 296 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 1: Great Pyramid of Giza, harrow casts it's judgment spell, and 297 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 1: of course nearby everywhere in the surrounding area, including the legendary, 298 00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 1: iconic and internationally odable city of Cairo, people are just 299 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 1: starting to fucking die, drop dead as souls are found 300 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,680 Speaker 1: wanting and they you know, and their souls are ripped 301 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 1: from their bodies, and these flashes of purple light and 302 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,400 Speaker 1: then moon Night and Kanshu arrived to put a stop 303 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 1: to this, and the fight is on. It's Moonnight versus Harrow, 304 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:21,160 Speaker 1: and then our Kaiju action Baby Conshu versus Amet, which 305 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 1: is happening in the background. It's so cool and it 306 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:27,680 Speaker 1: initially goes pretty poorly for our heroes, it must be said, 307 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 1: until Scarlets Carab flies into action on her seemingly indestructible 308 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:38,280 Speaker 1: golden underarm wings. Again, super cool costume design. I thought 309 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:41,160 Speaker 1: this is really red and market Steamer are like, oh shit, 310 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 1: this is where'd you get this? This? This is really awesome. 311 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:48,239 Speaker 1: And then we get the a really cool fight with 312 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 1: Arthur Harrow's and his henchmen and of course Omit and 313 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:54,680 Speaker 1: Conshu battling out in the background. And the fight synergy 314 00:17:54,720 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 1: is really cool between Moonnight, mister Knight, and the Scarlet 315 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:04,360 Speaker 1: Scarab all taking on Harrow and the henchees. We get 316 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:08,200 Speaker 1: to see Stephen as mister Knight like fight night wing 317 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 1: style with the two sticks for the first time. I 318 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: thought that was really great and it's it's a really 319 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:22,159 Speaker 1: fun fight, but unfortunately it ends up with Mark slash. 320 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:28,119 Speaker 1: Even on the receiving end of almost death, Harrow has 321 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:30,960 Speaker 1: Stephen slash Mark. He's about to kill them, and then bang, 322 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,879 Speaker 1: we get another blackout, and when Mark comes to Harrow 323 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 1: is unconscious in his arms. All the Henschees are seemingly dead. 324 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 1: Stephen emerges, He's like, I don't know what happened. We've 325 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:44,160 Speaker 1: seen this before, of course, and Layla is over there 326 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 1: like wait, wait, what just happened. Just then they see 327 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 1: in the distance that Amet has beaten Kanshu and is 328 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 1: dragging Kanchu off somewhere, so they have to cast this 329 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 1: trapping spell. Leyla and Mark go to do that. They 330 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 1: cast the spell and it works. Kanshu tells Mark, Okay, 331 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 1: you have Omit trapped in a Harrow's body, kill him 332 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:05,640 Speaker 1: and the threat forever. You have to do that. Leila's like, no, 333 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:08,480 Speaker 1: it's how many more people have to kill. Stop killing people, 334 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 1: Like maybe you should just stop doing that. And then 335 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:13,119 Speaker 1: con She's like okay, but like you know Amit, you 336 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 1: heard Amit like literally as she was being trapped in 337 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 1: in Harrow's body, like she would never stop trying to 338 00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 1: do this stuff. So she's gonna come back again and 339 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 1: try to commit mass murder. And so the market makes 340 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 1: the very obvious, but I think very important realization of Wait, 341 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:32,680 Speaker 1: hold on, I say you want to if you want 342 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 1: omit dead so much, why don't you just do it? Conch, 343 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 1: why don't you do it? And kN She's like, fine, 344 00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna do it. You're free, go ahead, You're gone, 345 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 1: and the suit is stripped away and Kanchu disappears. Stephen 346 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 1: wakes up in the mental hospital in Harrow's office once again. 347 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 1: Harrow says Kanchu isn't real limps away trailing blood and 348 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:56,720 Speaker 1: he's confused by this. He doesn't understand what this means. 349 00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 1: Mark and Stephen then say, you know what, I don't 350 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:02,800 Speaker 1: want to stay here at this We don't want to 351 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 1: stay here at this mental hospital anymore. We're gonna go 352 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 1: back and save the real world. Bang. Mark wakes up 353 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 1: in Steven's bed, as in London, as if nothing at 354 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 1: all it happened. His leg chained to the pillar, just 355 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 1: like in the first episode. And we would assume now 356 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 1: that Mark slash Stephen are part of our Marvel universe 357 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:23,800 Speaker 1: as as something they don't quite well, let's talk about 358 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:26,120 Speaker 1: the stinger before we talk about what that would mean. 359 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 1: We get the stinger. Arthur Harrow wakes up in a 360 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 1: mental hospital. Is it the same exact mental hospital is 361 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:34,320 Speaker 1: a different one? Whatever the case, he wakes up in 362 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,680 Speaker 1: a mental hospital, he's drugged to the gills. More great 363 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:40,000 Speaker 1: acting by Ethan Hawk. A Spanish speaking man wearing black 364 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 1: gloves comes inside and wheelds Arthur out to a waiting limo. 365 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:49,400 Speaker 1: And who's inside the limo? But Kanshu. Harrow says, Haha, 366 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 1: can't you guess what we're done? You can't hear me anymore? 367 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: Like Amed has been vaquished. We're done with this. And 368 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,400 Speaker 1: of course, if this is the real world and we'll 369 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:05,919 Speaker 1: unpack this, Ahmed is inside Harrow right now. And we 370 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 1: know that Kanshu, when last he was around Harrow, wanted 371 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 1: to put an end to the thread of omit Conchu's like, listen, 372 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,160 Speaker 1: I have a secret I need to tell you. Yes, 373 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 1: I made a deal with Mark and Stevens released them 374 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:20,120 Speaker 1: as my avatar's right and I honored that. But but, but, 375 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 1: but but but as anybody who's been watching this series 376 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:27,919 Speaker 1: closely knows, there is a third identity lurking somewhere in 377 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:31,919 Speaker 1: those blackout moments. And guess who it is. It's the 378 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 1: personality I didn't make a deal with It's Jake Lockley, 379 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:37,159 Speaker 1: my new avatar, my Spanish speaking limo driver who is 380 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:41,879 Speaker 1: also like a straight up murdering dude who does not 381 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:46,400 Speaker 1: have any limitter, has no limits on the violins. He's 382 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:50,800 Speaker 1: willing to meet out in my service. And he knocks 383 00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:54,159 Speaker 1: on a little divider where the driver is that it 384 00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:59,160 Speaker 1: wheels down there is Jake Lockley. Jake Lockley then shoots 385 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: ar the Harrow, killing him, and they drive off in 386 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 1: a white limousine with a Specter license plate into I 387 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:13,119 Speaker 1: guess the wider Marvel universe. You have a lot of questions, Rosie. 388 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 1: I have a lot of questions, Rosie. What are your questions? 389 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:19,639 Speaker 2: Okay, So if we're talking about this thinger so, I 390 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 2: think it's really interesting. Obviously a very classical narrative, a 391 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 2: classical narrative twist to see Arthur end up where he 392 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 2: had seemingly been trapping Mark slash Stephen Psyche. But what 393 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 2: I find really interesting is the implication of him being 394 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 2: the doctor and not knowing where he is, and then 395 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:42,200 Speaker 2: ending up in the and being able to commune with 396 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 2: Stephen and Mark, and then ending up in the mental 397 00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 2: institute as a patient. Did Harrow also have the ID 398 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:51,879 Speaker 2: like his conshu specifically targeting people. Also, I don't know 399 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:53,920 Speaker 2: if they. I don't think they ever said the ID 400 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:54,560 Speaker 2: in the show. 401 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 1: Still I don't think they did. 402 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 2: And I understand why because this, this final episode especially, 403 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 2: takes like a lot of leeway with the notion of 404 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 2: how something like that would work. But the big questions 405 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 2: here obviously are Jake Lockley, why is he a murderer? 406 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 2: Justice for taxi driver? Working like working class, blue collar 407 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 2: comic book Jake Lockley. He's a nice guy in the comics. 408 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:21,600 Speaker 2: He's just a just a cheese cab making some friends. 409 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 2: As we've talked about before, he's the persona who can 410 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 2: be in a diner and hear what's going on, who 411 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:29,440 Speaker 2: can overhear what's going on in the taxi cab? 412 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:29,640 Speaker 1: Who? 413 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:32,880 Speaker 2: And here he's like a stone cold killer. I mean 414 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 2: at Disney show that ends with just shooting someone like 415 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 2: in the face. That's a pretty pretty hard turn for Disney. 416 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 2: But the big question I have is he is driving 417 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:49,440 Speaker 2: in a white limousine and on the license plate it 418 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 2: says Specter. So the implication there is that this is 419 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:57,439 Speaker 2: a spectacle. But Mark Spector as we know him is 420 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,360 Speaker 2: just like a bomber assassin who like couldn't and keep 421 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 2: his wife. So where's the where are these billion dollar 422 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:08,400 Speaker 2: kind of situations coming from? It is a very intriguing Stinger, 423 00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:10,919 Speaker 2: And I think for people like us who follow the 424 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 2: comics and who'd been like, oh, is it Jake? Is 425 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 2: it Jake, I think it's like, Wow, You've got so 426 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,680 Speaker 2: many questions, And I just I wonder if people who 427 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:20,879 Speaker 2: like don't really read the comics were just like, what 428 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:24,000 Speaker 2: does it mean? What does the white what is the 429 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 2: same meaning? 430 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 1: Weirdly, Stinger and the very very end aside, I thought 431 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:35,479 Speaker 1: that this I thought Moonnight this series was like a 432 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 1: lot easier to figure out what was going on than 433 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:41,680 Speaker 1: a lot of recent Moonnight comics where I'm one hundred 434 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 1: percent of the time I'm like, wait, is this real? 435 00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:47,879 Speaker 1: Is I don't understand what's happening? Here is my theory 436 00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 1: on what I think? Okay, so Stephen Mark are stripped 437 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:56,640 Speaker 1: of conshoes, blessing, right, and they go back to that 438 00:24:56,720 --> 00:25:00,159 Speaker 1: kind of junction place between life and death where you 439 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:01,919 Speaker 1: can kind of decide to go to the field of 440 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 1: reeds or wherever. But the uh, whatever it was, you know, 441 00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 1: omit I guess that was holding Stephen and Mark there 442 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 1: has been damaged because of you know, the victory they 443 00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 1: had in the real world, and they're able to realize 444 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 1: what the place is and they made a choice together 445 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:24,160 Speaker 1: to go back to the real world. Okay, I think 446 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 1: that's fairly straightforward. Yeah, that's a great read that. The 447 00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 1: Arthur Harrow thing, here's what I think happened. And I 448 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 1: think it's just like, this is what I think happens. 449 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:39,200 Speaker 1: So they don't kill him, They leave him in the pyramid, 450 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,919 Speaker 1: I guess, right, and then Kanshu of course doesn't kill 451 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 1: him either. Conshu is a fucking coward and can't do 452 00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 1: anything for himself except I guess hand to hand combat 453 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 1: with Ahmit to be fair to Conshu, But like everything else, 454 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 1: Kanshu won't do. And so the police come. They find 455 00:25:55,359 --> 00:26:00,480 Speaker 1: Arthur Harrow's body. He's babbling about Egyptian gods and this 456 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 1: and that, and he seems like an ill person, so 457 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:06,920 Speaker 1: they take him to a mental hospital where can't sho 458 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:12,400 Speaker 1: In conjunction with Jake Lockley, his avatar finds him and 459 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:17,680 Speaker 1: then kills him without Mark and Stephen knowing. I think 460 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:19,920 Speaker 1: it's just like literally that straightforward. 461 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think something else that you just made me 462 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 2: realize when you touched on it is in the so 463 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:32,160 Speaker 2: in the version of the kind of overvoid like limbo space, 464 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:34,720 Speaker 2: Tarawett said to them, you know, you're just imagining it 465 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:37,160 Speaker 2: this way because that's all your human, feeble human minds 466 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,880 Speaker 2: can deal with. So it would make sense that Arthur too, 467 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:42,359 Speaker 2: when he was suddenly in a mental institute on a 468 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 2: lot of drugs, would also visualize that space that way. 469 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 3: So they did. 470 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,919 Speaker 2: That was a good little bit of narrative stitching together 471 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:51,680 Speaker 2: that I think they wove in there. So yeah, I'm 472 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,119 Speaker 2: very sorry I won't be seeing Ethan Hawk, but also 473 00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:56,879 Speaker 2: understand that he's a he's a very famous man with 474 00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 2: a lot of limited series. Well, okay, So something I 475 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 2: think is really cool that I think we could see 476 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 2: happen when Ethan Hawk was cast and he had the 477 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,480 Speaker 2: Cane and a lot of people were thinking like, oh, 478 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:11,640 Speaker 2: could there be some kind of idea of like an 479 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:16,200 Speaker 2: evil moonnight, of like a character who is gonna play 480 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:21,159 Speaker 2: up against him. But I wonder with the emergence of 481 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 2: Jake Lockley, if we'll see something kind of like in 482 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:28,600 Speaker 2: the comics where there was an evil Moonnight called Shadow Night, 483 00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 2: who was Randal Spector who in the MCUIO died. But 484 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:35,440 Speaker 2: I think there's something there about Jake kind of taking 485 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 2: on an evil Moonlight persona, something that could be really cool. 486 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 2: This is quite out there, but I believe they went 487 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 2: They went quite out there with this. What if he 488 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 2: was the antagonist and Stephen and Mark were trying to 489 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:49,880 Speaker 2: hunt him down? So I think that would be really cool. 490 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 1: I think that would be really cool too, And which 491 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:58,880 Speaker 1: raises the question. Okay, so, uh, Stephen, Mark, Jake right 492 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 1: is will continue to be Conschou's avatar, So moon Night 493 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:06,880 Speaker 1: is still going in the form of in the under 494 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 1: the under the control of the personality of Jake Lockley, 495 00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:14,119 Speaker 1: Stephen and Mark. We will assume have no idea that 496 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 1: this is going on, so Steve as season two hasn't 497 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:19,760 Speaker 1: been confirmed, but I think that there have been enough 498 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: hints that we think that it might happen, including some 499 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 1: social media posts where the wording was changed from series 500 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:32,479 Speaker 1: finale to season finale, that what we'll probably get is 501 00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:35,880 Speaker 1: just what you said, Uh, Moonnight as like the bad 502 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 1: moon Night running around super brutal, doing Concho's bidding in 503 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:44,000 Speaker 1: a way that is not heroic, and Mark and Stephen 504 00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:51,560 Speaker 1: fighting to emerge from whatever barrier Kanshu has has placed down. 505 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:54,160 Speaker 1: Because the other thing is like, I thought that what 506 00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:57,040 Speaker 1: was cool to me about the Moon Night series is 507 00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:00,960 Speaker 1: essentially essentially like a long origens story for a character, 508 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 1: and an interestingly structured origin story too. It was like 509 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 1: a it was like basically like Wolverine's origin, you know, 510 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 1: like a you introduce a mysterious character who doesn't know 511 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 1: who he is, has a bunch of fractured memories that 512 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:16,920 Speaker 1: he can't quite pick together, has been in action for 513 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:19,040 Speaker 1: a long time but doesn't remember any of it, and 514 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 1: then manage to get all their memories together at the 515 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 1: very end. But aha, there's the important pieces still missing. 516 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:27,680 Speaker 1: And I think that's what we saw here, And so 517 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 1: I think that you're you're onto something, and that we 518 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 1: will see if there is a season two, we'll get 519 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 1: Mark and Stephen trying to break free of the influence 520 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 1: of Jake Lockley slash Conshu. 521 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I also wonder if something that, well, something 522 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 2: I thought was really interesting that you kind of touched 523 00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 2: on here that I thought was really cool was in 524 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 2: the finale, we basically got the proper Moonnight origin because 525 00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:00,320 Speaker 2: in this version when we saw him originally any he 526 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:02,200 Speaker 2: was going to kill himself, he was wounded. But I 527 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 2: also feel like it was meant to be like guilt 528 00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 2: over what happened to Laila's dad and stuff. So in 529 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 2: this version we really see the moment where him and 530 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 2: Stephen make this conscious decision to be with Konshu to 531 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 2: be saved. And then I thought that was really cool 532 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:20,719 Speaker 2: that they kind of built in an origin to the finale. 533 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:23,880 Speaker 2: Also in the comics, there's a lot of precedent for 534 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 2: Mark disconnecting himself from Konshu and then being able to 535 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,840 Speaker 2: regain powers through the priests of Conchhu through different routines, 536 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 2: So I think there's something that also we had suspected. 537 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 2: Slash wondered if at some point Jake would be revealed 538 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:42,600 Speaker 2: to be a part of what happened to Layla's dad, 539 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:44,440 Speaker 2: And I think if there's a second series now we 540 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:47,360 Speaker 2: have Leila as the Scarlet Scarab, that could also add 541 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 2: an interesting conflict if it was Jake who was involved 542 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 2: in that side of things rather than Mark and Stephen. 543 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 1: Another thing that I don't know if you can't, but 544 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: there was a moment where I think the Jake voice 545 00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 1: came out. It was they were in the fight with Harrow, 546 00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:12,240 Speaker 1: and Harrow is is like, uh, you know, villainously monologuing, 547 00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 1: and then you get this, You get the Stephen voice 548 00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 1: for sure, which is super recognizable, and then you get 549 00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:22,480 Speaker 1: like kind of a more. It may just be Mark 550 00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 1: in a way that was like not consistent with past marks, 551 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 1: but it felt like they did the the Lockly voice 552 00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 1: dropped there. I think, so I want, I think they've been. 553 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,160 Speaker 2: Sneaking I just I think they've been sneaking it in more. 554 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 2: And I think on a rewatch you will really be 555 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 2: able to tell, because that was the first time we 556 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 2: really caught it was in the office. But I reckon 557 00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 2: if you go back, it's probably been there a couple 558 00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:47,560 Speaker 2: of other times. When Mark's I think you're agitated or aggressive, 559 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 2: I think we could have been seeing Jake kind of 560 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 2: sneak out. 561 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 1: Now regarding the white limousine with the specter, we should 562 00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,960 Speaker 1: talk about that because I think you're right, where's this 563 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:04,920 Speaker 1: money coming from? Where's the cash for the limo coming from? Okay, 564 00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 1: Jake Lockley is the more we're just meeting Jake Lockley 565 00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 1: in this episode. Although there were hints about him all 566 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:14,479 Speaker 1: throughout the series, and clearly Jake Lockley is seemingly is 567 00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 1: based on the comics version of Jake Lockley, which is 568 00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 1: the more blue collar, the lower class guy who has 569 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:24,040 Speaker 1: connections to the streets and can hear things and understand 570 00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:27,560 Speaker 1: things in a different kind of context because of where 571 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 1: he is in the social class structure. But there's also 572 00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:37,040 Speaker 1: in the comics the grant person was turned into like 573 00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 1: this super billionaire sometimes businessmen oftentimes like media mogul, slash 574 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 1: movie producer and flashy white limo like that. I wonder 575 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:56,000 Speaker 1: if there isn't another either another personality or something that 576 00:32:56,880 --> 00:33:00,920 Speaker 1: Stephen or Mark maybe don't remember which is them being 577 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:06,880 Speaker 1: this business media mogul, hotshot okay, would celebrity producer something. 578 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:08,960 Speaker 2: So if it was, if it was me, this is 579 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 2: this is my theory. Let's see if it happens, if 580 00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:14,720 Speaker 2: season two happens, I think think about it. Two things 581 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,480 Speaker 2: in media, movies, comics, whatever we like, there are two 582 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:21,640 Speaker 2: things that whenever they exist, they are very rich vampires 583 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 2: and assassins. So if hypothetically Jake Lockley is this third 584 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,720 Speaker 2: persona who's been going around just casually happy to kill 585 00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 2: everyone very efficient at it. From what we've seen. He 586 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:36,800 Speaker 2: had a scilencer on that gun. You know, he killed 587 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:42,280 Speaker 2: all those people in Egypt. And maybe Mark and Stephen 588 00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:45,200 Speaker 2: are the the personas who have been trying to live 589 00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:48,360 Speaker 2: a normal life, protect things from the family and all 590 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:51,480 Speaker 2: of that. But perhaps Jake has been there as a 591 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 2: persona who has been building up this cash flow, these 592 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:59,719 Speaker 2: connections to the criminal weld. He may have actually created 593 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:04,600 Speaker 2: SPA Corp. In Mark's name because they needed something for that. 594 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,320 Speaker 2: Like I think there's something there where it's like Jake 595 00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:10,520 Speaker 2: might be the puppet master, like Conshu thinks he's playing Jake, 596 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:12,959 Speaker 2: but Jake may have been doing all these other things 597 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,360 Speaker 2: to protect them because we thought Spector Corp. Was going 598 00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 2: to come into it and then they kind of teased 599 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,000 Speaker 2: it at the end. So I think it could be 600 00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:23,480 Speaker 2: cool to see if that was maybe something Jake has 601 00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:25,840 Speaker 2: been doing and he's kind of using these different because 602 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:28,959 Speaker 2: Stephen in the comics is the producer, like you said, 603 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:32,040 Speaker 2: the media mogul, maybe that's something Jake's taken on, Like, 604 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:34,400 Speaker 2: I would be really interesting to see where they go 605 00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:34,719 Speaker 2: with that. 606 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:40,480 Speaker 1: I would too, And I final thing, do you think 607 00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:43,600 Speaker 1: we see Layla as the Scarlet Scarab in the wire MCU. 608 00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:45,560 Speaker 1: I think that would be really cool. 609 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:51,600 Speaker 2: Yes, I think my feeling is that the end game 610 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 2: of who was meant to come out of this show 611 00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:59,280 Speaker 2: is may As Leila and the Scarlet Scarabs. 612 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:00,920 Speaker 1: I think that's great. 613 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:08,680 Speaker 2: Egyptian hero in the MCU, brilliant, badass, essentially immortal, also 614 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:12,080 Speaker 2: incredibly smart. Also kind of got an anti heroin roguish 615 00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 2: tendency because she's got these you know, for a long time, 616 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:18,560 Speaker 2: all anybody wanted was an Indiana Jones movie where Oscar 617 00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,600 Speaker 2: Isaac played Indiana Jones and returned things that people had 618 00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:26,040 Speaker 2: stolen through like colonization and you know, the general theft 619 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:28,799 Speaker 2: of like the British Empire. So Leyla could definitely she 620 00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:31,160 Speaker 2: has that kind of she said, I'm just putting things 621 00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:33,600 Speaker 2: back where they came from. You know, I think there's 622 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:36,120 Speaker 2: a lot to that character. People like the costume design 623 00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:38,080 Speaker 2: is really cool. It looks like they spend a lot 624 00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 2: of time on that, the Scarlet Scarab. The characters have 625 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:43,759 Speaker 2: been in all of you know, three issues, so I 626 00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:48,320 Speaker 2: think it gives them an open space to really introduce character. 627 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:51,200 Speaker 2: And today they had an interview with her on Marvel 628 00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:53,960 Speaker 2: dot com introducing her as Scarlet Scarab So to me, 629 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 2: I think that's like I think we could see Oscar's 630 00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:00,960 Speaker 2: Moonnight obviously, and I hope that keep bringing back his 631 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:03,200 Speaker 2: brother because that's who he was playing against us is 632 00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:05,239 Speaker 2: double and I think that really added a lot of 633 00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 2: the emotional heft, Like you knew when he's playing against 634 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:10,719 Speaker 2: Mark or Stephen, that's someone he loves. That's how he 635 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:14,080 Speaker 2: can bring that. And I wonder if maybe they do 636 00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:17,239 Speaker 2: something where like Oscar's very busy, So I think you 637 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:20,000 Speaker 2: could do a lot of Moonlight with predominantly CG or 638 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:22,600 Speaker 2: costuming and have a d R kind of like Mandalorian. 639 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, the same thing with you know, the way that 640 00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:30,439 Speaker 1: Robert Junior did like a lot a lot of the 641 00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:33,320 Speaker 1: MCU material, which is just like him in a closet 642 00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:35,520 Speaker 1: with a really good microphone and. 643 00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 2: Go and he became like the most like a closet. 644 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:48,279 Speaker 2: He's like in his house. His voice like. 645 00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:53,040 Speaker 1: What was that? 646 00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:57,759 Speaker 2: I think if that's the case, then you need the 647 00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:03,360 Speaker 2: human face, the character who's gonna be there and be 648 00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 2: feeling and be a part of these stories. And you know, 649 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,880 Speaker 2: I think, like think about this just hypothetically Moonlight and 650 00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,239 Speaker 2: the Scarlet scarap. That just sounds like a movie you'd 651 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:14,960 Speaker 2: want to see or a TV show you'd want to watch, right, 652 00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:17,200 Speaker 2: I think I think that is the same. Okay, I 653 00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:18,839 Speaker 2: have one question that's been on my mind. 654 00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 1: Ses. 655 00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:24,160 Speaker 2: I watched this for you as somebody who is very invested, 656 00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:25,520 Speaker 2: as we all are, but I know this is something 657 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:26,839 Speaker 2: you talk about a lot and you have really good 658 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:30,120 Speaker 2: thoughts about it in how things connect. How did you 659 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:32,799 Speaker 2: feel about that with Moonnight, because it seemed like there 660 00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:36,080 Speaker 2: were lots of threads where it could connect to other 661 00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:39,440 Speaker 2: things and they and they ended up going streamlined and 662 00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:42,720 Speaker 2: kind of almost stand alone, not fully standline, but almost. 663 00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:44,560 Speaker 2: How did you feel by the end of the episode? 664 00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:48,120 Speaker 1: I like, I there are obviously a lot of questions, 665 00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:50,759 Speaker 1: and I think whenever you know it's the same thing, 666 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:54,000 Speaker 1: it's the same feeling you get reading comm Expert times, 667 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,680 Speaker 1: which is like, where are the Avengers? Why doesn't Thor 668 00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:59,160 Speaker 1: just call the Avengers? Why doesn't Daredevil just call Spider Man? 669 00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:02,200 Speaker 1: Why doesn't like any number of things happened In that sense, 670 00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:04,719 Speaker 1: it felt very comic Bookie and that it was standalone, 671 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,080 Speaker 1: it was his own thing. I liked it, and I 672 00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:11,400 Speaker 1: liked and I think the thing that I appreciated about 673 00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:13,759 Speaker 1: it in the context of this conversation with the wider 674 00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:16,440 Speaker 1: MCU is that it gave us a lot of new 675 00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:22,080 Speaker 1: information we've you know, in terms of like of MCU gods, 676 00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:26,480 Speaker 1: of Marvel gods we've had as guardian Law, we've seen that, 677 00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:28,279 Speaker 1: and we know we're going to get more of it 678 00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:31,719 Speaker 1: with thor Love and Thunder. But this kind of laid 679 00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:35,920 Speaker 1: the groundwork for Hey, any of the kind of ancient 680 00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:39,399 Speaker 1: gods from different cultures, all of that could come in, 681 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:43,200 Speaker 1: which is I think is really cool. Like I am, 682 00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:46,440 Speaker 1: it was a very on the nose and sincere moment, 683 00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:50,839 Speaker 1: but like the moment when Layla saves the carload of 684 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:53,520 Speaker 1: civilians in Cairo and the one woman says, wait, are 685 00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:57,400 Speaker 1: you the first Egyptian Suberiro? Are you an Egyptian superhero? 686 00:38:57,400 --> 00:38:59,840 Speaker 1: And she's just like yep. That got me. And I 687 00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 1: think like the the the possibilities that that opens not 688 00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:10,319 Speaker 1: just for like representation and casting, but for like storytelling 689 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:15,719 Speaker 1: cool characters, for widening the kind of like the the 690 00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 1: lore of the MCU. I think is really cool. That 691 00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:22,880 Speaker 1: part of it I thought was really cool. And also, 692 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,120 Speaker 1: you know, there's not an Avengers team right now. So 693 00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:28,759 Speaker 1: I guess, like when shit's going down in Cairo and 694 00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:32,879 Speaker 1: it seems like people are just their souls are being vaporized, Yeah, 695 00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:36,319 Speaker 1: there would be like, wait, who where's Thora? He's not 696 00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:40,120 Speaker 1: on the planet. Fuck, okay, Captain America, he's like ninety 697 00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:46,359 Speaker 1: eight Nick Furritt, He's gone. Damn it. Nobody remembers Spider Man, 698 00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:50,319 Speaker 1: so you can't call him, you know, so like it 699 00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:52,120 Speaker 1: makes sense, It actually does make sense. 700 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:54,919 Speaker 2: No, I think you're totally right. I really I think 701 00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:58,520 Speaker 2: that the biggest thing here is Layla Scarlet Scarab and 702 00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:02,040 Speaker 2: also this notion of God. Whether or not we see 703 00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:04,479 Speaker 2: Taraware or we see any other God, isn't the point. 704 00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:09,360 Speaker 2: The point is these gods exist as living deities with 705 00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:12,400 Speaker 2: powers who can influence our world. And we're about to 706 00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:14,759 Speaker 2: go into thaw, love and thunder. And I love what 707 00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:18,200 Speaker 2: you said about Leila because something about comics that hasn't 708 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 2: that the MCU is really just getting into in Phase four. 709 00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:25,319 Speaker 2: Comics have always had fans all over the world. One 710 00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:27,520 Speaker 2: of our favorite comics one of the things we talked 711 00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:30,239 Speaker 2: about the first time we ever met Giant Size X Men, 712 00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:33,120 Speaker 2: that is a comic the Greatest Well Time where the 713 00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:36,719 Speaker 2: team came in and they said, we are going to 714 00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:40,560 Speaker 2: make an international team. Now, did that team have some flaws? Sure, whatever, 715 00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:43,520 Speaker 2: it's not, but that was the notion and that reinvigorated 716 00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:46,520 Speaker 2: the X Men. It introduced some of our absolute favorite characters, 717 00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 2: and it changed the way that we saw comics and 718 00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:51,360 Speaker 2: we saw that team. And I really like your idea 719 00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:55,960 Speaker 2: that these shows, and this specifically, this show can be 720 00:40:56,040 --> 00:41:00,560 Speaker 2: the launch pad for those kind of ideas of of 721 00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:04,080 Speaker 2: introducing different kinds of heroes from different kinds of places. 722 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:06,799 Speaker 2: I'm widening the scope of what an MCU hero could be. 723 00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:08,000 Speaker 2: I think that's really lovely. 724 00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:13,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm excited to see what happens next with Moonnight, 725 00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:16,480 Speaker 1: whether we get a season two, whether we don't, Who 726 00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:19,560 Speaker 1: and what comes out of this series then reaches the 727 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:23,839 Speaker 1: wider MCU And with that, guess what when we come back, 728 00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:40,520 Speaker 1: we'll be talking Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Okay, folks, 729 00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:44,359 Speaker 1: We're stepping out of the slingering portal and onto the 730 00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:50,160 Speaker 1: beautiful steps of the mystical city of Comartage to discuss 731 00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:54,080 Speaker 1: Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness.

This is the recap of Doctor 773 00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:08,640 Speaker 1: Strange and the Multiverse of Madness, directed by Sam Raimi, 774 00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:15,360 Speaker 1: written by Michael Waldron, starring you know, Benedict Cumberbatch, Elizabeth Olsen, 775 00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:19,960 Speaker 1: Soshi Gomez, Benedict Wang, Chewitteluga four, Rachel McAdams and the 776 00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:23,200 Speaker 1: rest and a whole lot of cameos, which we will 777 00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:25,920 Speaker 1: get into here. He goes we open in an alternate 778 00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:28,960 Speaker 1: universe Defender variant, Doctor Stephen Schreud. Would you say that 779 00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:31,320 Speaker 1: that's fair, Defender variant. 780 00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:32,839 Speaker 2: I would say that's fair. I also think we can 781 00:44:32,880 --> 00:44:35,200 Speaker 2: have a very interesting conversation about the fact they never 782 00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:37,319 Speaker 2: used the word variant in this film. So it is 783 00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:39,960 Speaker 2: Defender Strange, who is, as far as we know, a 784 00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:43,399 Speaker 2: Doctor Strange variant in a world where he assumingly led 785 00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:44,080 Speaker 2: the Defenders. 786 00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:49,920 Speaker 1: That's corrected one of the kind of like underrated, underrated 787 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:53,400 Speaker 1: superhero teams. Like if you were going to say, obviously 788 00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:56,440 Speaker 1: Avengers and X Men, that's like your major leagues, that's 789 00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:59,279 Speaker 1: your big league team, and then you have like West 790 00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:01,359 Speaker 1: Coast Avengers. This is kind of like an like a 791 00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:05,439 Speaker 1: B level team. Your Defenders are, like I'm not saying 792 00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:08,920 Speaker 1: they're like like when the Avengers went local and you 793 00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:11,480 Speaker 1: had the Great Lake Avengers. Obviously, like the Defenders are 794 00:45:11,480 --> 00:45:15,040 Speaker 1: above the Great Lake Avengers. They are, but there's still 795 00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:17,600 Speaker 1: like a like a sea level but fun team that 796 00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:22,800 Speaker 1: once had Hulk, Doctor Strange, Iceman and others. Anyway, Defender 797 00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:27,720 Speaker 1: Stephen Strange, who can speak Spanish and America Chavez. Who 798 00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:29,760 Speaker 1: would you call her a mutant? 799 00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:33,400 Speaker 2: Would I pass? They call a mutant? Absolutely? Does this 800 00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:35,000 Speaker 2: movie call her mutant? No? 801 00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:38,520 Speaker 1: Why? But we're gonna call her a mutant. America Chavez, 802 00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:42,239 Speaker 1: a human mutant from an alternate dimension, are running away 803 00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:44,440 Speaker 1: from a demon. Where are they? They're in a place 804 00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:46,600 Speaker 1: called the Junction, which we will explain what that is 805 00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:49,279 Speaker 1: later as as our characters learn what that is. They're 806 00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:51,359 Speaker 1: trying to reach some kind of glowing book on these 807 00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:55,040 Speaker 1: like floating platforms, and the demon is chasing them. We 808 00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:56,920 Speaker 1: will later learn that this book is the Book of 809 00:45:56,960 --> 00:46:01,480 Speaker 1: the Vashanty, a powerful white magic book that is the 810 00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:06,800 Speaker 1: polar opposite of the Dark Hold, the book that Wanda 811 00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:09,920 Speaker 1: has been studying since the end of Wanda Vision. America 812 00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:14,680 Speaker 1: has the power to open doorways through dimensions, but much 813 00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:18,759 Speaker 1: like many young mutants, does not have the ability to 814 00:46:18,800 --> 00:46:22,800 Speaker 1: control her power. It only emerges in moments of extreme 815 00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:29,239 Speaker 1: stress danger emotion, which is very mutant like that to 816 00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:35,040 Speaker 1: these powers fast and much anyway defenders. Strange, seeing that 817 00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:37,080 Speaker 1: the game is about to be lost, comes up with 818 00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:40,920 Speaker 1: the last Gas strategy, which is to take America's power, 819 00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:44,040 Speaker 1: so the demon can't steal it. What if the demon 820 00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:46,319 Speaker 1: steals it from you? Strange seems like, I don't know 821 00:46:46,320 --> 00:46:48,040 Speaker 1: if this is a great strategy, but that's what he does. 822 00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:51,080 Speaker 1: In the end, the demon kills Strange, and Chavez, with 823 00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:55,400 Speaker 1: her life in danger, unconsciously engages her power opens a 824 00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:59,080 Speaker 1: portal to Earth six one six. Strange wakes from a 825 00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:03,200 Speaker 1: terrible dream here on our regular MCU six one six Earth. 826 00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:07,359 Speaker 1: He was dreaming about a young woman and him. They 827 00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:09,920 Speaker 1: were in some weird dimension. They were running from a demon. 828 00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:12,160 Speaker 1: They were trying to get a glowing book. And He's like, ah, whatever, 829 00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:14,800 Speaker 1: that was weird. Maybe just some bad taco I ate 830 00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:19,120 Speaker 1: last night. He then puts on his beautiful jaeger lecoutre 831 00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:25,160 Speaker 1: Master ultrathin a gift from Christine, which has a twenty 832 00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:32,120 Speaker 1: three thousand, three hundred dollars manufacturer retail price. Christide, Steven, 833 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:34,440 Speaker 1: how did you fumble the bag with this woman? This 834 00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:36,960 Speaker 1: woman I loved you, She. 835 00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:38,560 Speaker 2: Was walking in a hospital. 836 00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:43,040 Speaker 1: She brought you a twenty three thousand dollars fucking watch 837 00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:47,080 Speaker 1: and you and you blew it? Buddy? How much did 838 00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:47,839 Speaker 1: Stephen blew it? 839 00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:48,279 Speaker 2: Well? 840 00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:50,880 Speaker 1: First of all, this Crystal is completely cracked. Or this 841 00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:54,279 Speaker 1: beautiful watch that Christy got him, and he's putting on 842 00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:56,000 Speaker 1: the watch and getting dressed in a really nice suit 843 00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:58,279 Speaker 1: because he's got to go to Christine's wedding. Yes, he 844 00:47:58,360 --> 00:48:01,439 Speaker 1: blew it to that level. He goes. He goes over 845 00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:04,560 Speaker 1: to the church. Christine's getting wed to a man who 846 00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:09,760 Speaker 1: apparently is an Avengers fan. Awkward moment. Strange then apologizes 847 00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:14,600 Speaker 1: for basically him fumbling the bag with their relationship, and 848 00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:17,160 Speaker 1: it's like, I hope you're happy. She's like, I hope 849 00:48:17,160 --> 00:48:20,840 Speaker 1: you're happy too, and Stevens like, em, am I happy, 850 00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:22,759 Speaker 1: I don't know. I have weird dreams. And I broke 851 00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:26,120 Speaker 1: a twenty three thousand dollars watch face. There's a commotion 852 00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:29,480 Speaker 1: outside out of the street. Something invisible is wrecking cars 853 00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:35,000 Speaker 1: and buses and just generally fucking up the street. Stephen, listen. 854 00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:39,040 Speaker 1: There's no better feeling, probably in this moment for Stephen 855 00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:42,440 Speaker 1: than to flex in front of his the love that 856 00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:44,400 Speaker 1: he lost and be like, ah, this is what this 857 00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:48,520 Speaker 1: is what she lost? Nabe doctor Stevett Strage Avenger And 858 00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:51,919 Speaker 1: he suits up in his costume and he floats down 859 00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:54,680 Speaker 1: there and everybody's like, oh holy shit. Using some magic, 860 00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:58,440 Speaker 1: he reveals the monster and it is our friend Shu McGrath, 861 00:48:58,520 --> 00:48:59,920 Speaker 1: who flies especially guard. 862 00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:04,239 Speaker 2: Yes, I'm gonna say, I'm okay with it now. To me, 863 00:49:04,719 --> 00:49:08,200 Speaker 2: he's Gargantos, because you know what, Shumagrath, that's a smart guy. 864 00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:11,080 Speaker 2: He would be like he's sprinting Steven and talking. 865 00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:14,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, this guy, he's just like he's more like a beast. 866 00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:15,640 Speaker 1: So I'm like, mindless. 867 00:49:15,719 --> 00:49:20,839 Speaker 2: It's Garths, like stupid, a cousin. I'm okay with legitimately, 868 00:49:20,920 --> 00:49:23,040 Speaker 2: like an evil genius. Yeah, exactly. 869 00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:25,320 Speaker 1: So Strange swings in action. He cuts off one of 870 00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:30,279 Speaker 1: Garganto's tentacles, drawing the creature's anger. Strangely and quickly gets 871 00:49:30,360 --> 00:49:34,440 Speaker 1: knocked out, but good thing. His His friends, the Cloak 872 00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:37,640 Speaker 1: of Levitation and Wong the Sorcerer Supreme himself show up 873 00:49:37,719 --> 00:49:42,160 Speaker 1: and they swing an action and they're fighting Gargantos. Eventually 874 00:49:42,239 --> 00:49:45,640 Speaker 1: all of our heroes take down Garcantos and they over pizza. 875 00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:49,640 Speaker 1: Strange and Wong start asking America Shavas, like, what's the deal? 876 00:49:50,040 --> 00:49:52,080 Speaker 1: Where are you from? What are you doing here? What 877 00:49:52,160 --> 00:49:54,920 Speaker 1: did you were? Why was that thing trying to eat you? 878 00:49:55,600 --> 00:49:59,239 Speaker 1: She tells them she's from an alternate uh dimension and 879 00:49:59,320 --> 00:50:01,960 Speaker 1: that she's known doctor Stephen Strange is. In fact, she 880 00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:05,280 Speaker 1: was recently with one who was killed by a demon 881 00:50:05,280 --> 00:50:07,479 Speaker 1: that was trying to steal her power, which she can't 882 00:50:07,520 --> 00:50:09,640 Speaker 1: yet control, and as proof, she takes them to the 883 00:50:09,640 --> 00:50:12,960 Speaker 1: body of Defender Stephen Strange, who is one hundred percent 884 00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:17,120 Speaker 1: dead and really fucked up. Stephen then in it completely. 885 00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:19,920 Speaker 1: Stephen could do anything. He can make the body disappe, 886 00:50:19,920 --> 00:50:22,400 Speaker 1: he can put it into another dimension, he could be instead, 887 00:50:22,719 --> 00:50:26,560 Speaker 1: like he could burn it. Instead, he takes the dead 888 00:50:26,680 --> 00:50:32,120 Speaker 1: body a corpse, a legitimately dead human being's carcass, and 889 00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:35,400 Speaker 1: he like buries it under paving stones on the rooftop 890 00:50:35,440 --> 00:50:39,040 Speaker 1: of an apartment building where it's like a it's like 891 00:50:39,080 --> 00:50:41,600 Speaker 1: a you know, a roof deck, like people go up there. 892 00:50:43,160 --> 00:50:49,520 Speaker 1: He's like us, I'm like, it's like someone's home. 893 00:50:50,960 --> 00:50:55,480 Speaker 2: It was a great choice because he might need that cool. 894 00:50:55,600 --> 00:50:58,440 Speaker 1: That's right, we'll get to that event, very very important. 895 00:50:58,640 --> 00:51:02,680 Speaker 1: Stephen then says, okay, Wong, you take America a commontage 896 00:51:02,719 --> 00:51:05,399 Speaker 1: where she will be one hundred percent safe, surrounded by 897 00:51:06,600 --> 00:51:09,960 Speaker 1: hundreds of the most powerful sorcerers in the world and 898 00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:13,520 Speaker 1: I will go get some backup. My friend wanted maxim off. 899 00:51:13,560 --> 00:51:17,239 Speaker 1: There are runs involved in this whole affair that were 900 00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:21,120 Speaker 1: on Gargantos's tentacles, and runs can only mean one thing. 901 00:51:21,160 --> 00:51:23,320 Speaker 1: It means witches. As we saw at the end of Wanavision, 902 00:51:24,040 --> 00:51:28,279 Speaker 1: Wana is living on an impossibly idyllic farm surrounded by 903 00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:32,480 Speaker 1: groves of fruit trees that are flowering, and she's trimming 904 00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:35,719 Speaker 1: the little branches off the trees. And there's these beautiful 905 00:51:36,040 --> 00:51:39,520 Speaker 1: white sheep that look like these beautiful little cotton candy clouds, 906 00:51:39,560 --> 00:51:42,960 Speaker 1: and they're like prancing around everything so fucking perfect. Looks great, 907 00:51:43,320 --> 00:51:46,040 Speaker 1: And doctor Strangers smells one of the branches, like, this 908 00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:49,960 Speaker 1: all seems legit. This doesn't seem like the like the 909 00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:52,040 Speaker 1: product of chaos magic at all. I think this is 910 00:51:52,080 --> 00:51:54,399 Speaker 1: all great. I think you're doing great. One well, don 911 00:51:55,080 --> 00:51:57,720 Speaker 1: right now, let me make my pitch to you. Demons 912 00:51:57,760 --> 00:52:00,000 Speaker 1: are chasing this young lady, trying to steal her power 913 00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:02,000 Speaker 1: or it's a threat to the multiverse. Can you help? 914 00:52:02,800 --> 00:52:05,719 Speaker 1: And Wanda's like, oh, yeah, I'd love to help. Where 915 00:52:05,760 --> 00:52:08,799 Speaker 1: is America? And then Strangers are like, oh, I never 916 00:52:08,840 --> 00:52:12,400 Speaker 1: mentioned her name, and Wanda realizes that aha, she is caught, 917 00:52:12,440 --> 00:52:18,719 Speaker 1: and guess what, she drops her her illusion spell that 918 00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:20,839 Speaker 1: has been making the landscape look great. Now we see 919 00:52:20,880 --> 00:52:23,920 Speaker 1: like a nightmare vision of this like ruined landscape of 920 00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:27,560 Speaker 1: dead trees. Everything is like a glowing red. It looks really, really, 921 00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:30,640 Speaker 1: really scary. And Wana is like, here's what's going on. 922 00:52:32,520 --> 00:52:35,120 Speaker 1: You're gonna give me America. You're gonna hand her over 923 00:52:35,120 --> 00:52:37,040 Speaker 1: to me because I need her, because I need to 924 00:52:37,120 --> 00:52:42,520 Speaker 1: access a dimension in which my children, Billy and Tommy 925 00:52:42,840 --> 00:52:45,919 Speaker 1: actually exists. They exist in every single dimension except this one. 926 00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:49,120 Speaker 1: And that's bullshit. And by the way, doctor Strange, what 927 00:52:49,239 --> 00:52:53,920 Speaker 1: about what about misogyny? What about the fact that you 928 00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:57,680 Speaker 1: break the rules all the fucking time? Right? And everybody's like, 929 00:52:57,680 --> 00:53:00,360 Speaker 1: oh doctor Strange, an Avenger, holy shit, will you signed 930 00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:04,480 Speaker 1: my will you sign my T shirt? And then I 931 00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:07,040 Speaker 1: like lose control a little bit and turn an entire 932 00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:10,080 Speaker 1: region of New Jersey into a nineteen fifties like a 933 00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:13,560 Speaker 1: village and people are scared of me and hunting me now, 934 00:53:13,600 --> 00:53:15,399 Speaker 1: and I don't think that's fair. And to be fair 935 00:53:15,640 --> 00:53:17,919 Speaker 1: to her, she kind of has a point, yeah, and 936 00:53:18,000 --> 00:53:18,680 Speaker 1: she she. 937 00:53:18,719 --> 00:53:20,560 Speaker 2: Really brings it home in a way I didn't really 938 00:53:20,600 --> 00:53:22,799 Speaker 2: realize because she's like, didn't you break the rules when 939 00:53:22,840 --> 00:53:25,960 Speaker 2: you gave Fanos the time jem, which is, you know, 940 00:53:26,120 --> 00:53:30,400 Speaker 2: the one that allowed his vision to truly die, even 941 00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:33,480 Speaker 2: off the one to sacrifice. I thought that was really 942 00:53:33,520 --> 00:53:36,680 Speaker 2: clever writing. I was like, oh, I mean, you're both 943 00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:40,120 Speaker 2: badly behaved, but this is this is a good interest. 944 00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:42,200 Speaker 1: Good point. It's a good point and it's one that 945 00:53:42,200 --> 00:53:46,400 Speaker 1: that came up earlier in the Church when when strangers 946 00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:52,120 Speaker 1: old colleague was like, yeah, you know I disappeared. Wasn't 947 00:53:52,160 --> 00:53:54,000 Speaker 1: there anything else you could do? Like you had to 948 00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:58,600 Speaker 1: give him the stone? Which is interesting because so much 949 00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:01,160 Speaker 1: of that fight, like obviously, like the fight on Titan 950 00:54:01,480 --> 00:54:04,200 Speaker 1: didn't even happen on world, like that happened outside of 951 00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:07,120 Speaker 1: Like there's a huge part of that war against Stantos 952 00:54:07,520 --> 00:54:12,080 Speaker 1: place out of everybody's view. So it's interesting. It would 953 00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:15,600 Speaker 1: be interesting to find out or to learn more about, 954 00:54:15,640 --> 00:54:19,320 Speaker 1: like what people just know about the fight against Santas. 955 00:54:19,680 --> 00:54:22,680 Speaker 2: This really it ties back to that really funny thing 956 00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:25,080 Speaker 2: in Hawkeye, which was like one of my favorite theories 957 00:54:25,680 --> 00:54:27,640 Speaker 2: that I came up with and is absolutely wrong. 958 00:54:27,680 --> 00:54:32,960 Speaker 4: But the Avengers Musical it includes loads of stuff that 959 00:54:33,120 --> 00:54:36,080 Speaker 4: nobody would ever know like a part of the team. 960 00:54:36,120 --> 00:54:39,920 Speaker 4: He actually was there in the post end game Infinity 961 00:54:39,960 --> 00:54:42,360 Speaker 4: War like timeline, but who knows that. 962 00:54:42,480 --> 00:54:44,960 Speaker 2: So I love the idea that maybe there's like who's 963 00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:48,760 Speaker 2: doing these pr blasts telling people about how the world 964 00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:51,799 Speaker 2: was saved. I'd love to dig more into that. 965 00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:54,480 Speaker 1: I would love to dig into it too. Here is 966 00:54:54,520 --> 00:54:56,720 Speaker 1: my pitch on what I think happened. I think because 967 00:54:56,719 --> 00:54:59,000 Speaker 1: this is such like an important world historical event. Now 968 00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:02,560 Speaker 1: you have superheroes, some of them living on Earth, obviously, 969 00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:05,719 Speaker 1: you have as guardians living on Earth for people, the 970 00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:08,880 Speaker 1: emergence of metahumans, of magic, of all this stuff, And 971 00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:11,840 Speaker 1: I think to like in a world in which you 972 00:55:11,880 --> 00:55:15,480 Speaker 1: would imagine regular people would be like that's all. That's great, 973 00:55:15,520 --> 00:55:17,879 Speaker 1: you saved us from fanos, you brought our loved ones back, 974 00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:20,759 Speaker 1: but also like I'm a little scared of y'all, Like 975 00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:23,200 Speaker 1: you're a little too powerful. I could see a world 976 00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:27,800 Speaker 1: in which the heroes just kind of like testify before 977 00:55:27,880 --> 00:55:30,200 Speaker 1: Congress or something like that, and now. 978 00:55:30,080 --> 00:55:33,360 Speaker 2: We fit into a civil war esques a Covier Records 979 00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:34,600 Speaker 2: kind of world. 980 00:55:35,200 --> 00:55:38,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, and just we're like, Okay, here's everything that happened 981 00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:41,080 Speaker 1: from our perspective. I will tell you, I will testify 982 00:55:41,080 --> 00:55:43,160 Speaker 1: in a public setting about everything that happened in some 983 00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:46,680 Speaker 1: stuff I would assume as classified, but that generally they 984 00:55:46,719 --> 00:55:49,239 Speaker 1: would make that knowledge available to the people of the 985 00:55:49,280 --> 00:55:52,840 Speaker 1: world since it is of such pressing importance to the 986 00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:57,640 Speaker 1: entire population of the world. Okay, so back to our story, 987 00:55:57,680 --> 00:56:01,840 Speaker 1: Strange goes to Commertage to say, hey, some some slightly 988 00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:06,000 Speaker 1: bad news. I actually told the bad guy the entire 989 00:56:06,040 --> 00:56:10,319 Speaker 1: plan and that we are protecting America you and that 990 00:56:10,440 --> 00:56:13,439 Speaker 1: you are here in Commertage. So we got to lock 991 00:56:13,520 --> 00:56:17,640 Speaker 1: this entire city down. So all the sorcerers, you know, 992 00:56:17,719 --> 00:56:23,040 Speaker 1: they fly into action, building up the defenses of Commotage. 993 00:56:23,200 --> 00:56:26,800 Speaker 1: But then, of course, and we meet Rintra the Minotaur, 994 00:56:26,840 --> 00:56:29,960 Speaker 1: which is great, kind of minor character from the Marvel comics, 995 00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:32,000 Speaker 1: but super super super cool that we meet. 996 00:56:31,960 --> 00:56:35,360 Speaker 2: Rintram really interestingly, like, well, we'll get to where this 997 00:56:35,440 --> 00:56:37,600 Speaker 2: movie ends up, but Rinchar is really cool because that 998 00:56:37,719 --> 00:56:41,279 Speaker 2: one of the people who's held the Ambula of Agamato, 999 00:56:41,480 --> 00:56:43,359 Speaker 2: and we kind of see the eye and the Eye 1000 00:56:43,400 --> 00:56:45,799 Speaker 2: of Agamato and the general lore of it becomes a 1001 00:56:45,800 --> 00:56:47,720 Speaker 2: lot more text here. So I thought that was really 1002 00:56:47,800 --> 00:56:49,279 Speaker 2: clever cool inclusion, and. 1003 00:56:49,280 --> 00:56:52,800 Speaker 1: He looked great, looking great, looked really cool, like yeah cool, 1004 00:56:53,480 --> 00:56:57,840 Speaker 1: looked super super cool. But then Wander arrives in this 1005 00:56:58,080 --> 00:57:02,759 Speaker 1: black storm cloud and the Sorcerers of Comotage put up 1006 00:57:02,760 --> 00:57:04,759 Speaker 1: a really really great fight, but one is just way, 1007 00:57:04,760 --> 00:57:07,760 Speaker 1: way too powerful. She kills a lot of people strange, 1008 00:57:07,800 --> 00:57:11,560 Speaker 1: then traps Wanda in the mirror dimension, but as a 1009 00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:15,319 Speaker 1: as a indication of just how powerful she has become, 1010 00:57:15,400 --> 00:57:19,560 Speaker 1: she breaks out, managing to like uh use reflections in 1011 00:57:19,600 --> 00:57:22,240 Speaker 1: the real world as portals to escape the mirror dimension 1012 00:57:22,280 --> 00:57:26,600 Speaker 1: in a what is an entirely sam Raimie. 1013 00:57:26,760 --> 00:57:30,040 Speaker 2: It seems that's the moment where I was like, Okay, 1014 00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:32,480 Speaker 2: he got to do it, Like this is he got ary. 1015 00:57:32,960 --> 00:57:40,160 Speaker 2: It is really clever scary technique I almost haven't really 1016 00:57:40,200 --> 00:57:42,960 Speaker 2: even seen done in the comics that way, Like it's 1017 00:57:42,960 --> 00:57:48,000 Speaker 2: slightly really slightly matrixy, but it's more horrorish. It's slightly oculous, 1018 00:57:48,040 --> 00:57:51,000 Speaker 2: like there's touches of it, but it's pure Raymie. And 1019 00:57:51,640 --> 00:57:55,960 Speaker 2: when she breaks out, they do a full ring homage. 1020 00:57:56,160 --> 00:57:59,280 Speaker 2: She's oh, yeah, out like Santako and her body is 1021 00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:02,240 Speaker 2: all broke, and it's just like I was like, oh, 1022 00:58:02,280 --> 00:58:03,920 Speaker 2: it's a horror movie. Baby. 1023 00:58:04,040 --> 00:58:10,480 Speaker 1: It's as to say about that one thing, like, listen, 1024 00:58:10,840 --> 00:58:13,600 Speaker 1: we know some of our listeners might have kids. Your 1025 00:58:13,680 --> 00:58:17,320 Speaker 1: kids might love the MCU. My friend Jason was his 1026 00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:20,320 Speaker 1: son is a huge EMCU fin and I was like, okay, listen, 1027 00:58:20,880 --> 00:58:25,000 Speaker 1: small note. This is the scariest mcues, like legitimately dark 1028 00:58:25,040 --> 00:58:27,600 Speaker 1: and scary at times. So if you're bringing your kids, 1029 00:58:27,680 --> 00:58:29,720 Speaker 1: just be warned about that. There will be moments that 1030 00:58:29,760 --> 00:58:30,840 Speaker 1: I think are a little scary. 1031 00:58:30,960 --> 00:58:33,080 Speaker 2: This is to me, this is like parents watch it first, 1032 00:58:33,200 --> 00:58:36,480 Speaker 2: because I feel like our age group when we were 1033 00:58:36,480 --> 00:58:40,000 Speaker 2: growing up, we watched like everything because of the h watch. 1034 00:58:39,840 --> 00:58:41,440 Speaker 1: Everything that I should not have watched. 1035 00:58:41,440 --> 00:58:43,280 Speaker 2: This is kind of like a This is like that 1036 00:58:43,480 --> 00:58:46,400 Speaker 2: scariness of like a dark crystal or a legend. It's 1037 00:58:46,440 --> 00:58:49,120 Speaker 2: just got a little bit more blood good and a 1038 00:58:49,120 --> 00:58:52,240 Speaker 2: little bit more. But so there's some It's like Batman. 1039 00:58:52,360 --> 00:58:54,080 Speaker 2: The Batman. I kind of just said to people, your 1040 00:58:54,160 --> 00:58:56,760 Speaker 2: kid's probably not gonna like it. It's like it's very 1041 00:58:57,080 --> 00:59:00,240 Speaker 2: real life scary. This is more of that fantas to 1042 00:59:00,280 --> 00:59:02,720 Speaker 2: go scary, but it has some And this is the 1043 00:59:02,720 --> 00:59:04,160 Speaker 2: first time I think we can say this in an 1044 00:59:04,280 --> 00:59:09,280 Speaker 2: MCU scope. It has some brutal deaths like we will 1045 00:59:09,320 --> 00:59:09,880 Speaker 2: get to that. 1046 00:59:10,280 --> 00:59:12,919 Speaker 1: We will get to that. Reals it. It is yeah, 1047 00:59:13,080 --> 00:59:16,480 Speaker 1: like some people got get got like in vicious fashion. 1048 00:59:16,600 --> 00:59:20,360 Speaker 2: Yes, so watch it twice once second, maybe with your 1049 00:59:20,400 --> 00:59:22,240 Speaker 2: kids or by yourself again if it's too scary. 1050 00:59:22,960 --> 00:59:27,680 Speaker 1: Sou Wanda, as Rosie noted, crawls ring like out of 1051 00:59:27,720 --> 00:59:33,800 Speaker 1: the mirror dimension. Uh is about to take America's power 1052 00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:38,920 Speaker 1: from her. Uh. America is like struggling, but again another 1053 00:59:39,000 --> 00:59:42,120 Speaker 1: portal opens just because of her instinct, and the Strange 1054 00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:46,240 Speaker 1: tackles her and through the portal, and America and Strange 1055 00:59:46,360 --> 00:59:49,000 Speaker 1: escape from Wanda. But now they're lost in the multiverse. 1056 00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:51,400 Speaker 1: They are just going from dimension to dimension to dimension. 1057 00:59:51,440 --> 00:59:58,080 Speaker 1: What is a super super mesmerizing like visual feast going 1058 00:59:58,080 --> 00:59:59,560 Speaker 1: from dimension to dimension. 1059 00:59:59,600 --> 01:00:02,240 Speaker 2: It's one of those times when you get the mixture 1060 01:00:02,240 --> 01:00:04,360 Speaker 2: of the mastery of being able to make a two 1061 01:00:04,480 --> 01:00:08,920 Speaker 2: hundred million dollar movie. It's beautiful. Anyone can enjoy that sequence. 1062 01:00:09,120 --> 01:00:11,240 Speaker 2: But if you're a person who wants to see an 1063 01:00:11,280 --> 01:00:14,520 Speaker 2: Easter egg, there are things in there. You've got Savage Land, you'd. 1064 01:00:14,360 --> 01:00:16,880 Speaker 1: Savage Land was definitely there. 1065 01:00:16,800 --> 01:00:19,800 Speaker 2: Spider Man Noir world. There's a different kind of really 1066 01:00:19,880 --> 01:00:22,800 Speaker 2: hyperreal cartooning world, which I thought was really cool, kind 1067 01:00:22,800 --> 01:00:25,840 Speaker 2: of almost like a scanner darkly rotoscoping world. There also 1068 01:00:26,160 --> 01:00:28,760 Speaker 2: was a hell which does exist in the Marvel universe, 1069 01:00:29,040 --> 01:00:32,960 Speaker 2: and probably Mustafar from Star Wars, which we know was 1070 01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:35,280 Speaker 2: in What If, so I wouldn't put it past Disney 1071 01:00:35,280 --> 01:00:37,400 Speaker 2: to sneak it in, And I thought that was really 1072 01:00:37,440 --> 01:00:40,120 Speaker 2: cool because that moment when they inevitably put it on 1073 01:00:40,160 --> 01:00:43,400 Speaker 2: YouTube is just a really gorgeous bit of filmmaking. 1074 01:00:43,640 --> 01:00:45,640 Speaker 1: I know, it's so cool, but it also has. 1075 01:00:45,520 --> 01:00:50,080 Speaker 2: That extra layer of, like, if you're wondering these places exist. 1076 01:00:50,160 --> 01:00:53,720 Speaker 1: I'm very, very excited for those places to eventually emerge. 1077 01:00:53,920 --> 01:00:58,000 Speaker 1: So where do they end up? They end up in 1078 01:00:58,840 --> 01:01:02,720 Speaker 1: a version of Earth that is seemingly a utopia. It's 1079 01:01:02,760 --> 01:01:08,920 Speaker 1: at peace. It is quite technologically advanced. Also, green traffic 1080 01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:11,640 Speaker 1: lights means stop and red leg red ones mean go. 1081 01:01:12,280 --> 01:01:15,480 Speaker 1: And also the other real notable difference other than like 1082 01:01:15,560 --> 01:01:17,720 Speaker 1: a lot of foliage in New York City and like 1083 01:01:17,720 --> 01:01:20,400 Speaker 1: beautiful flowering trees, is that pizza comes in the shape 1084 01:01:20,400 --> 01:01:22,640 Speaker 1: of a ball, unlike our universe. Yes. 1085 01:01:23,200 --> 01:01:25,760 Speaker 2: Sold by Bruce Campbell. 1086 01:01:24,960 --> 01:01:30,520 Speaker 1: Right by Sam Raimi. Veteran actor Bruce Campbell with no 1087 01:01:30,640 --> 01:01:33,320 Speaker 1: way back to their dimension. Strange in America go to 1088 01:01:33,400 --> 01:01:35,520 Speaker 1: this world's version of the Sanctum. On the way, they 1089 01:01:35,520 --> 01:01:38,880 Speaker 1: get some pizza balls, and notably, we learned that in 1090 01:01:39,000 --> 01:01:41,960 Speaker 1: almost every other dimension, food is viewed as a basic 1091 01:01:42,040 --> 01:01:45,440 Speaker 1: human right, meaning it is provided free of charge if 1092 01:01:45,640 --> 01:01:49,680 Speaker 1: people can't pay. That is every other universe except apparently 1093 01:01:49,760 --> 01:01:52,400 Speaker 1: six one six love and this one that they're in 1094 01:01:52,480 --> 01:01:56,200 Speaker 1: right now, and you love that for the multiverse, I guess. 1095 01:01:57,240 --> 01:01:59,440 Speaker 1: They find the Sanctum out front, they find a statue 1096 01:01:59,520 --> 01:02:02,960 Speaker 1: of that world's doctor Strange. The dedication says that he 1097 01:02:03,000 --> 01:02:05,200 Speaker 1: fell in the battle against Santos, and the doors open 1098 01:02:05,280 --> 01:02:07,520 Speaker 1: and out comes Baron Morro and he's like, ah, oh, 1099 01:02:07,560 --> 01:02:10,320 Speaker 1: my brother, you made it from some other dimensions. Is awesome. 1100 01:02:10,560 --> 01:02:14,560 Speaker 1: They embrace. Stephen is a little put off. He's like, 1101 01:02:14,600 --> 01:02:17,200 Speaker 1: this is a little weird, but but good. Not certainly 1102 01:02:17,200 --> 01:02:19,680 Speaker 1: a warmer welcome than I was expecting from Baron Morroo. 1103 01:02:20,240 --> 01:02:23,560 Speaker 1: They go upstairs, they have a little tea. Uh, Steven 1104 01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:27,080 Speaker 1: and America explain the whole problem, and then Steven's like, 1105 01:02:28,360 --> 01:02:32,440 Speaker 1: I feel weird, and Morto's like, here's here's my retort 1106 01:02:32,480 --> 01:02:35,600 Speaker 1: to everything you said. Actually, our problem most of the 1107 01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:40,920 Speaker 1: time is not Wanda's. It's alternate dimension Stephen Strange. So 1108 01:02:41,000 --> 01:02:43,280 Speaker 1: we're worried about you and Steve's what and then he 1109 01:02:43,360 --> 01:02:47,800 Speaker 1: passes out. It's the classic drug tea bit. Folks, if 1110 01:02:47,800 --> 01:02:49,919 Speaker 1: you ever go to the home of a magician, don't 1111 01:02:50,040 --> 01:02:51,400 Speaker 1: drink the tea. 1112 01:02:51,200 --> 01:02:54,080 Speaker 2: Especially if he was in your post your enemy like 1113 01:02:54,640 --> 01:02:57,720 Speaker 2: I too, I too want to have tea, which would 1114 01:02:57,680 --> 01:03:01,439 Speaker 2: tell Edge obviously I do, and Baron might do being 1115 01:03:01,560 --> 01:03:05,400 Speaker 2: so loving, but like Stephen, just just I know. Stephen 1116 01:03:05,400 --> 01:03:07,680 Speaker 2: has done the drug tea bit at least once himself, 1117 01:03:07,760 --> 01:03:08,960 Speaker 2: so he should have known. 1118 01:03:08,800 --> 01:03:13,120 Speaker 1: Bell classic drug tea bit by your enemy, the guy 1119 01:03:13,160 --> 01:03:16,280 Speaker 1: who's been fighting for sixty years in the comics, and 1120 01:03:16,520 --> 01:03:19,160 Speaker 1: it's six years now in MCU, so you should have 1121 01:03:19,160 --> 01:03:21,840 Speaker 1: known him better. Stephen in America, wake up in these 1122 01:03:22,000 --> 01:03:26,680 Speaker 1: glass holding cells. This universe is Christine Palmer is studying them, 1123 01:03:26,760 --> 01:03:29,120 Speaker 1: taking readings and such, and she, like everyone else, is 1124 01:03:29,280 --> 01:03:32,560 Speaker 1: very very wary of Strange. It's clear people in this 1125 01:03:32,720 --> 01:03:35,640 Speaker 1: universe who are in the know, superhero people, people that 1126 01:03:35,720 --> 01:03:38,760 Speaker 1: work with superheroes, are very very concerned about the appearance 1127 01:03:38,800 --> 01:03:43,520 Speaker 1: of a doctor Strange. She is like listen, I'm studying you, guys, 1128 01:03:43,800 --> 01:03:46,360 Speaker 1: obviously because you're from another universe. I'm studying you because 1129 01:03:46,400 --> 01:03:48,880 Speaker 1: I'm a top researcher here at the Baxter Foundation. Wait, 1130 01:03:51,400 --> 01:03:52,640 Speaker 1: the crowd goes wild. 1131 01:03:52,720 --> 01:03:53,800 Speaker 2: Didn't this people? 1132 01:03:53,840 --> 01:03:56,919 Speaker 1: Oh my god? Yeah, the theater went crazy. The guy 1133 01:03:56,960 --> 01:03:59,160 Speaker 1: in front of me was just like rocking back and forth. 1134 01:03:59,160 --> 01:04:05,240 Speaker 1: And Baxter Foundation, of course, is the is the public 1135 01:04:05,480 --> 01:04:12,040 Speaker 1: private uh science research foundation that is run by the 1136 01:04:12,120 --> 01:04:15,400 Speaker 1: Fantastic Four as roots that go back beyond the Fantastic Four, 1137 01:04:15,400 --> 01:04:19,360 Speaker 1: but BI is run by the Fantastic Four. Okay, So 1138 01:04:20,400 --> 01:04:23,560 Speaker 1: Strangers then escorted by a squad of ultron bots to 1139 01:04:23,560 --> 01:04:27,120 Speaker 1: see the Illuminati, and we meet the Illuminati. The roster 1140 01:04:27,360 --> 01:04:33,080 Speaker 1: is Baron Morto. Okay, Blackbolt, king of the inhumans, whoa 1141 01:04:33,120 --> 01:04:35,360 Speaker 1: incredible incredible. 1142 01:04:36,480 --> 01:04:36,840 Speaker 2: They say. 1143 01:04:36,920 --> 01:04:39,360 Speaker 1: They said his full name black and guar Bull to God, 1144 01:04:39,760 --> 01:04:43,000 Speaker 1: which which which Doctor Strange makes fun of, which I 1145 01:04:43,040 --> 01:04:46,040 Speaker 1: think is not that's you can't make fun of a 1146 01:04:46,480 --> 01:04:48,960 Speaker 1: he's from a different society, Steven, you can't. 1147 01:04:50,400 --> 01:04:50,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1148 01:04:50,680 --> 01:04:52,720 Speaker 1: Also he can't speak because if he talked to you, 1149 01:04:52,720 --> 01:04:57,080 Speaker 1: you would melt anyway. Maria Rambou aka Captain Marvel in 1150 01:04:57,120 --> 01:05:00,960 Speaker 1: this universe, Peggy Carter Captain Carter a K Captain Britain, 1151 01:05:01,800 --> 01:05:05,440 Speaker 1: and then hello, folks, the smartest man in the universe. 1152 01:05:05,560 --> 01:05:09,240 Speaker 1: It's Reed Richards in a wonderful bit of stunt casting, 1153 01:05:09,680 --> 01:05:13,800 Speaker 1: played by John Krasinski, most notably of the Office. The 1154 01:05:13,880 --> 01:05:16,520 Speaker 1: fucking theater went absolutely ape shit. 1155 01:05:16,760 --> 01:05:20,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's stunt casting on multiple levels, because that was, 1156 01:05:20,240 --> 01:05:22,440 Speaker 2: for a long time, the biggest rumor and the biggest 1157 01:05:22,440 --> 01:05:26,360 Speaker 2: fan casting was John Krasinski Emily Blunt as Read and Sue, 1158 01:05:26,720 --> 01:05:30,120 Speaker 2: and to see him here was like people were just 1159 01:05:30,240 --> 01:05:34,680 Speaker 2: going bonkers. And also it was reassuring to me because 1160 01:05:34,720 --> 01:05:36,760 Speaker 2: I'm not a fan of the idea of John Krasinsky 1161 01:05:37,400 --> 01:05:41,000 Speaker 2: in The Fantastic Four. So inevitably as the movie ended, 1162 01:05:41,040 --> 01:05:42,880 Speaker 2: I was like, I'm safe, but we will get to 1163 01:05:42,920 --> 01:05:43,520 Speaker 2: that and way. 1164 01:05:43,400 --> 01:05:45,960 Speaker 1: You will get to that. And then of course Professor 1165 01:05:46,000 --> 01:05:48,680 Speaker 1: Charles Xavier. Now they all come out in staggered fashion. 1166 01:05:49,640 --> 01:05:53,560 Speaker 1: And the reason it doesn't make sense narratively that Charles 1167 01:05:53,720 --> 01:05:56,560 Speaker 1: rolls up after everybody has introduced themselves and there's been 1168 01:05:56,560 --> 01:05:58,680 Speaker 1: a conversation going for like a minute. Charles, I guess 1169 01:05:58,720 --> 01:06:01,720 Speaker 1: was in the restroom or something, But it makes sense 1170 01:06:01,760 --> 01:06:05,680 Speaker 1: in the theater because they needed time for the applause 1171 01:06:05,760 --> 01:06:09,520 Speaker 1: for read Richards to die down right, for you to 1172 01:06:09,560 --> 01:06:11,360 Speaker 1: realize that Charles Xavier is. 1173 01:06:11,600 --> 01:06:15,040 Speaker 2: They wanted you to see the Yellow Wheelchair anime ad 1174 01:06:15,120 --> 01:06:20,960 Speaker 2: series style, and they wanted you to which weed it 1175 01:06:21,560 --> 01:06:25,960 Speaker 2: and some of the best casting in any movie ever 1176 01:06:26,040 --> 01:06:28,280 Speaker 2: and almost suddenly one of the best superhero costings of 1177 01:06:28,320 --> 01:06:30,480 Speaker 2: all time. It's Patrick Stewett as Professor. 1178 01:06:30,280 --> 01:06:34,080 Speaker 1: Patrick Stewart as Charles Xavier. Uh. He said he'd never 1179 01:06:34,120 --> 01:06:35,720 Speaker 1: do it, and here he is doing it and it 1180 01:06:35,800 --> 01:06:38,160 Speaker 1: was great to see him. Crowd went crazy again. I 1181 01:06:38,280 --> 01:06:41,560 Speaker 1: went crazy. I love my x Men. Fantastic. They the 1182 01:06:41,560 --> 01:06:47,520 Speaker 1: Illuminati tells Strange how they're Strange in this dimension, started 1183 01:06:47,520 --> 01:06:50,240 Speaker 1: fucking around with the Dark Hole because they were looking 1184 01:06:50,280 --> 01:06:52,600 Speaker 1: for ways to defeat Thanos, need a power to defeat Thanos. 1185 01:06:52,600 --> 01:06:54,439 Speaker 1: The Strange as like, let me look into this dark hold. 1186 01:06:54,920 --> 01:06:58,280 Speaker 1: But of course, eventually Strange became obsessed with the book 1187 01:06:58,400 --> 01:07:03,560 Speaker 1: and became corrupted by it, and then, somehow, accidentally, because 1188 01:07:03,560 --> 01:07:06,800 Speaker 1: things just got out of hand, Strange of that dimension 1189 01:07:06,840 --> 01:07:09,520 Speaker 1: triggered an incursion, which is a collision of two universes 1190 01:07:09,560 --> 01:07:11,400 Speaker 1: resulting in the destruction of what are both. 1191 01:07:11,480 --> 01:07:15,840 Speaker 2: And we will definitely be talking about that after the recap, 1192 01:07:15,840 --> 01:07:18,160 Speaker 2: because that is going to be really important going forward. 1193 01:07:18,280 --> 01:07:20,440 Speaker 1: You've heard us talk about it before, we're going to 1194 01:07:20,440 --> 01:07:22,600 Speaker 1: talk about it again. This is a good thing that 1195 01:07:22,640 --> 01:07:25,240 Speaker 1: they mentioned right here, because now that's on our radar. 1196 01:07:25,640 --> 01:07:29,880 Speaker 1: So in their experience, the Illuminati says, the strangers are 1197 01:07:30,280 --> 01:07:32,720 Speaker 1: our biggest threat we had. We had to kill our 1198 01:07:32,760 --> 01:07:37,520 Speaker 1: strange after we defeated Detos. And also in this conversation 1199 01:07:37,600 --> 01:07:42,160 Speaker 1: we get the first canonical mention of the numbering system 1200 01:07:42,240 --> 01:07:44,200 Speaker 1: used in Marvel comics for the various world So, of 1201 01:07:44,240 --> 01:07:47,600 Speaker 1: course the main earth, the one that our main heroes 1202 01:07:47,600 --> 01:07:51,120 Speaker 1: are from, is Earth six one six, and this Earth 1203 01:07:51,200 --> 01:07:53,760 Speaker 1: that they are currently on, the Illuminati Earth is what 1204 01:07:53,800 --> 01:07:54,200 Speaker 1: do we say? 1205 01:07:54,200 --> 01:07:57,320 Speaker 2: It was eight three eight, though we will say producer 1206 01:07:57,360 --> 01:07:59,720 Speaker 2: soul things, it might be nine three eight, which will. 1207 01:07:59,600 --> 01:08:03,840 Speaker 1: Be because that's the universe nine eight which one is 1208 01:08:03,840 --> 01:08:05,440 Speaker 1: the Santa one, Santa is. 1209 01:08:05,720 --> 01:08:08,320 Speaker 2: Eight three eight is jol near and then which is 1210 01:08:08,360 --> 01:08:10,120 Speaker 2: the Santa one and nine three eight is the one 1211 01:08:10,120 --> 01:08:14,320 Speaker 2: where Doom is in power of some kind because that 1212 01:08:14,360 --> 01:08:15,640 Speaker 2: would be cool because I love you. 1213 01:08:16,000 --> 01:08:22,840 Speaker 1: But yeah, so anyway, Santa has yeah. 1214 01:08:21,360 --> 01:08:23,240 Speaker 2: And it's important to know that. The way that we 1215 01:08:23,320 --> 01:08:25,519 Speaker 2: learn this is Christine Palmer is the one who's been 1216 01:08:25,520 --> 01:08:28,800 Speaker 2: designating the universe, and Stephen even sasses her and is like, 1217 01:08:29,280 --> 01:08:31,600 Speaker 2: who would do that? Who would designate all the universes? 1218 01:08:31,640 --> 01:08:34,479 Speaker 2: So thanks to Marvel for that one. Because it's us, 1219 01:08:35,040 --> 01:08:37,400 Speaker 2: it's fans maybe, but this is a really big deal. 1220 01:08:37,520 --> 01:08:39,719 Speaker 1: You have been a huge deal. 1221 01:08:39,760 --> 01:08:41,680 Speaker 2: This the six one six for a long time. I 1222 01:08:41,720 --> 01:08:44,960 Speaker 2: actually have a piece talking about this because how does 1223 01:08:45,000 --> 01:08:47,200 Speaker 2: it work? Can you have a six one six that's 1224 01:08:47,200 --> 01:08:49,920 Speaker 2: on screen? That's also also the MCU did already have 1225 01:08:49,960 --> 01:08:52,240 Speaker 2: a fan designation which was like one nine nine nine 1226 01:08:52,280 --> 01:08:55,280 Speaker 2: nine nine I think. So it's it's very interesting, but 1227 01:08:55,320 --> 01:08:59,240 Speaker 2: it's really exciting. Also, got a very big cheer in 1228 01:08:59,240 --> 01:09:01,080 Speaker 2: my theater and it was really really crowd. 1229 01:09:01,760 --> 01:09:03,720 Speaker 1: That was a really cool moment for that to get 1230 01:09:03,720 --> 01:09:05,479 Speaker 1: it cheer. That's how you knew there was some real 1231 01:09:05,840 --> 01:09:08,759 Speaker 1: some real nerd heads of the in the audience. Okay, 1232 01:09:08,800 --> 01:09:12,240 Speaker 1: so the illuminati are like, hey, in our experience, it's 1233 01:09:12,240 --> 01:09:14,240 Speaker 1: strangers that are the problems. So this is what we're 1234 01:09:14,240 --> 01:09:17,320 Speaker 1: gonna do. We're gonna investigate whether your story is legit. 1235 01:09:17,439 --> 01:09:21,040 Speaker 1: Your story about your version of Wanda in Possession of 1236 01:09:21,040 --> 01:09:25,080 Speaker 1: the Dark Hold threatening the multiverse, trying to trying to 1237 01:09:25,120 --> 01:09:27,840 Speaker 1: extract America's power so she could, you know, live with 1238 01:09:27,880 --> 01:09:31,160 Speaker 1: their kids, but basically potentially could lead to the destruction 1239 01:09:31,200 --> 01:09:33,760 Speaker 1: of the multiverse. We're gonna look into that, so you 1240 01:09:33,840 --> 01:09:36,559 Speaker 1: just sit tight until we figure that out. And by 1241 01:09:36,560 --> 01:09:38,559 Speaker 1: the way, if you're lying, you're dead, just like our 1242 01:09:38,600 --> 01:09:42,120 Speaker 1: others strange. Back in six one six, Wanda is sitting 1243 01:09:42,640 --> 01:09:46,120 Speaker 1: in the ruins of comotage. Wong is her prisoner. Sarah, 1244 01:09:46,160 --> 01:09:49,559 Speaker 1: a sorcerer, managed to seize the Dark Hole from Wanda, 1245 01:09:49,600 --> 01:09:52,120 Speaker 1: and she stabs it and destroys it, and it kills 1246 01:09:52,160 --> 01:09:56,479 Speaker 1: her in the process. Wanda, if you were wondering, as 1247 01:09:56,520 --> 01:09:58,880 Speaker 1: I was in this moment, like is Wanda one hundred 1248 01:09:58,920 --> 01:10:05,400 Speaker 1: percent bad? Here's your answer. She then tortures various other sorcerers, 1249 01:10:05,439 --> 01:10:10,719 Speaker 1: including our good friend Ntra, to get Wong to get 1250 01:10:10,760 --> 01:10:13,519 Speaker 1: her information about the Dark Hole. She's like, you know 1251 01:10:13,600 --> 01:10:15,479 Speaker 1: about that. You're an ex you're the Sorcerer's supreme. You 1252 01:10:15,479 --> 01:10:17,240 Speaker 1: know all the top secret trus my ship that's in 1253 01:10:17,280 --> 01:10:19,040 Speaker 1: the Dark Hold, or at least some of it. So 1254 01:10:19,040 --> 01:10:21,080 Speaker 1: you're gonna tell me what that is now, And then 1255 01:10:21,120 --> 01:10:25,040 Speaker 1: Wong instead gives up an actually a much bigger secret. 1256 01:10:25,800 --> 01:10:28,640 Speaker 1: That Dark Hold is a copy. There's another one, the 1257 01:10:28,720 --> 01:10:31,960 Speaker 1: real one, and that one is at a secret place 1258 01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:38,639 Speaker 1: called what is it Rosie Mount Wonderguld. Huge share from 1259 01:10:38,680 --> 01:10:39,680 Speaker 1: the audience, Well, you. 1260 01:10:39,680 --> 01:10:41,320 Speaker 2: Want to know the really funny thing in my fit, 1261 01:10:41,520 --> 01:10:43,920 Speaker 2: which is very reactive, that was one chair. It was 1262 01:10:43,960 --> 01:10:46,320 Speaker 2: more like a scream of like someone in a slasher 1263 01:10:46,400 --> 01:10:50,439 Speaker 2: movie and it was me and be talking about every week. 1264 01:10:50,560 --> 01:10:54,720 Speaker 2: I got multiple I got multiple messages being like was 1265 01:10:54,760 --> 01:10:57,559 Speaker 2: it you who screamed when they said Mount Wondergoll, And 1266 01:10:57,600 --> 01:10:59,800 Speaker 2: I was like, absolutely, I will. 1267 01:10:59,880 --> 01:11:00,439 Speaker 1: I was watching. 1268 01:11:00,479 --> 01:11:03,800 Speaker 5: I'm like I love Charles Xavier, Like yeah, but when 1269 01:11:03,800 --> 01:11:06,280 Speaker 5: they said I know, that was my one theory that 1270 01:11:06,320 --> 01:11:09,160 Speaker 5: I did not think they would commit to, and it 1271 01:11:09,280 --> 01:11:10,880 Speaker 5: was so good and they did the way they did 1272 01:11:10,880 --> 01:11:11,719 Speaker 5: it was really cool. 1273 01:11:11,920 --> 01:11:17,080 Speaker 2: So in this version Mount Wondergore, Cathon didn't just make 1274 01:11:17,120 --> 01:11:20,160 Speaker 2: the Dark Hold the book in Mount Wondergore. He essentially 1275 01:11:20,240 --> 01:11:24,360 Speaker 2: like carved the spells of the Dark Cold into the 1276 01:11:24,400 --> 01:11:28,200 Speaker 2: mountain and then every book is a copy of those spells. 1277 01:11:28,240 --> 01:11:32,240 Speaker 1: Really cool, really really cool. No Bova spoiler, but like, 1278 01:11:33,439 --> 01:11:35,559 Speaker 1: but that's fine. Maybe we get her later. Maybe there's 1279 01:11:36,400 --> 01:11:38,720 Speaker 1: laboratory somewhere underneath the. 1280 01:11:38,760 --> 01:11:42,040 Speaker 2: You know, still pointed out that there we've already had Rintra, 1281 01:11:42,560 --> 01:11:47,519 Speaker 2: So the minur cgi exists, the human has hybrid maybe 1282 01:11:47,840 --> 01:11:52,280 Speaker 2: in this was very much like a primal, brutal, Kathon 1283 01:11:52,600 --> 01:11:55,880 Speaker 2: dark magic version of Wondergore. So we don't know what 1284 01:11:55,920 --> 01:11:58,400 Speaker 2: the situation of the High Evolutionary or the more comic 1285 01:11:58,479 --> 01:12:01,960 Speaker 2: focused version is. Just to hear that name and then 1286 01:12:02,040 --> 01:12:03,640 Speaker 2: to learn it was really cool that we were going 1287 01:12:03,680 --> 01:12:06,000 Speaker 2: to get to go there.

Why does it go? And we 1302 01:12:55,720 --> 01:12:58,200 Speaker 2: can talk a little bit more, but this actual introduction 1303 01:12:58,320 --> 01:13:02,080 Speaker 2: could be really really important, you know, coming soon kind 1304 01:13:02,120 --> 01:13:04,160 Speaker 2: of movies in the MCU, So it's very exciting. 1305 01:13:04,439 --> 01:13:07,559 Speaker 1: Ba's to w our movie. Wanda takes Wong to Mount 1306 01:13:07,600 --> 01:13:11,320 Speaker 1: Wonder Gore, which, by the way, is if it's anything 1307 01:13:11,360 --> 01:13:15,439 Speaker 1: like the comics, it's somewhere like in Eastern Europe. In 1308 01:13:15,520 --> 01:13:18,519 Speaker 1: the comics, it's in a fictional Eastern European nation called 1309 01:13:18,640 --> 01:13:24,240 Speaker 1: Transia in the mountains there, and Wonder Gore turns out 1310 01:13:24,400 --> 01:13:27,360 Speaker 1: is the throne of the legendary Scarlet Witch. It's not 1311 01:13:27,439 --> 01:13:29,280 Speaker 1: a tomb of the Scarlet, which is where the Scarlet 1312 01:13:29,280 --> 01:13:32,599 Speaker 1: which comes to rule, So it Wanda's home. The magical 1313 01:13:32,600 --> 01:13:35,280 Speaker 1: guardians of the place, these kind of like giant, hulking creatures. 1314 01:13:35,280 --> 01:13:40,240 Speaker 1: They kneel before her and using her new dark hold, Wanda, 1315 01:13:40,640 --> 01:13:44,200 Speaker 1: as she's been doing all along, dream walks. So dream 1316 01:13:44,240 --> 01:13:49,880 Speaker 1: walking is the ability to send your consciousness through other dimensions, 1317 01:13:50,439 --> 01:13:54,559 Speaker 1: using other versions of yourself as the conduit. She sends 1318 01:13:54,600 --> 01:13:59,599 Speaker 1: her personality back into the nine to three to eight version, 1319 01:14:00,160 --> 01:14:03,200 Speaker 1: create version of herself where the Illuminati are. 1320 01:14:03,320 --> 01:14:05,040 Speaker 2: And I think this is really interesting because we didn't 1321 01:14:05,080 --> 01:14:07,439 Speaker 2: touch on this because it's so fleeting, but me and 1322 01:14:07,479 --> 01:14:09,639 Speaker 2: one of my colleagues, Mikey Walsh, we've been talking about 1323 01:14:09,680 --> 01:14:13,160 Speaker 2: this a lot today. The reveal in this to do 1324 01:14:13,200 --> 01:14:15,600 Speaker 2: with dream walking, which another thing that we sort of 1325 01:14:15,600 --> 01:14:18,200 Speaker 2: got right, is definitely kind of adapted from Sleepwalker, who 1326 01:14:18,240 --> 01:14:20,160 Speaker 2: we thought may play a part in this. 1327 01:14:20,560 --> 01:14:23,160 Speaker 1: We saw the toy, so there was a moment when 1328 01:14:23,160 --> 01:14:24,920 Speaker 1: she first said dream walking where I'm like, oh my god, 1329 01:14:24,920 --> 01:14:27,760 Speaker 1: we're right. 1330 01:14:27,760 --> 01:14:30,719 Speaker 2: They adapted it and she doesn't have to be asleep, 1331 01:14:30,760 --> 01:14:33,200 Speaker 2: but it still connects to it. But something very interesting 1332 01:14:33,240 --> 01:14:35,479 Speaker 2: that they reveal in this film that seems to be 1333 01:14:35,520 --> 01:14:39,640 Speaker 2: canon that we never knew before. You can connect to 1334 01:14:39,680 --> 01:14:43,320 Speaker 2: your multiversal versions of yourself through dreams. Essentially, if you 1335 01:14:43,400 --> 01:14:46,639 Speaker 2: dream of yourself in the MCU, you are likely seeing 1336 01:14:46,680 --> 01:14:50,320 Speaker 2: another multiversal version yep. And this is actually really a 1337 01:14:50,320 --> 01:14:53,240 Speaker 2: bit of smart plotting because after much talking today in 1338 01:14:53,280 --> 01:14:57,759 Speaker 2: the nerdis Slack, we couldn't really think of a film 1339 01:14:57,800 --> 01:15:01,960 Speaker 2: where they're an actual nighttime dream rather than like visions 1340 01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:04,200 Speaker 2: like in you know, an Age of Oltron. So this 1341 01:15:04,320 --> 01:15:07,200 Speaker 2: is very smart, and I think it could really dream 1342 01:15:07,200 --> 01:15:09,640 Speaker 2: walking was obviously very dangerous. We see how dangerous it 1343 01:15:09,720 --> 01:15:11,639 Speaker 2: is for Wonder. But I think that notion of what 1344 01:15:11,680 --> 01:15:15,000 Speaker 2: a dream means in the MCU, and it being a 1345 01:15:15,040 --> 01:15:18,240 Speaker 2: space to connect to different multiverses, that feels like a 1346 01:15:18,280 --> 01:15:21,120 Speaker 2: really cool tiny story nod that could become a much 1347 01:15:21,200 --> 01:15:21,760 Speaker 2: bigger thing. 1348 01:15:21,880 --> 01:15:27,120 Speaker 1: I completely agree with you. Okay. So back on Earth 1349 01:15:27,880 --> 01:15:30,720 Speaker 1: nine three eight slash eight three eight, where the Illuminati 1350 01:15:30,760 --> 01:15:35,400 Speaker 1: live and where Doctor Strange and America are. Uh, Wanda 1351 01:15:35,439 --> 01:15:38,360 Speaker 1: has taken control of the version of herself self that 1352 01:15:38,439 --> 01:15:41,080 Speaker 1: lives there, and she flies over to the Baxter Building. 1353 01:15:41,120 --> 01:15:42,320 Speaker 1: I'm going to call it the Baxter Building. 1354 01:15:42,360 --> 01:15:45,439 Speaker 2: We don't know IMAI headquarters slash backs to the buildings 1355 01:15:45,479 --> 01:15:47,200 Speaker 2: slash British Museum living. 1356 01:15:47,040 --> 01:15:51,799 Speaker 1: Out something like that. Uh And long story short, folks, 1357 01:15:51,880 --> 01:15:56,720 Speaker 1: it's ripped the Illuminati. We you, we get residents. We 1358 01:15:56,760 --> 01:16:01,720 Speaker 1: get some of the most brutal deaths in MCU history here, including. 1359 01:16:01,840 --> 01:16:06,120 Speaker 2: Okay, so this is where Sam is like, this is 1360 01:16:06,160 --> 01:16:10,280 Speaker 2: where Sam's like. By the way, guys, under me, I'm 1361 01:16:10,320 --> 01:16:12,720 Speaker 2: going for you. Remember who I'm working You thought you 1362 01:16:12,760 --> 01:16:14,840 Speaker 2: thought the mirror was bad. So the first death we 1363 01:16:14,880 --> 01:16:18,040 Speaker 2: get where you really understand what's about tap into the Illuminati. 1364 01:16:18,120 --> 01:16:20,320 Speaker 2: This is not a this is not even like a 1365 01:16:20,360 --> 01:16:23,720 Speaker 2: moonlight style shooting. This is like you're going to see 1366 01:16:23,720 --> 01:16:25,960 Speaker 2: some people die in a horrific way that is absolutely 1367 01:16:25,960 --> 01:16:29,280 Speaker 2: connected to their powers, which is so clever. The first 1368 01:16:29,280 --> 01:16:32,280 Speaker 2: one is black Bolt. He thinks he can kill Wonder 1369 01:16:32,320 --> 01:16:34,400 Speaker 2: because you know he was the one who killed Strange. 1370 01:16:34,439 --> 01:16:38,040 Speaker 2: He has this powerful voice she Matrix style closes his 1371 01:16:38,160 --> 01:16:41,799 Speaker 2: mouth and he's so surprised that he ends up making 1372 01:16:41,840 --> 01:16:45,719 Speaker 2: a noise and essentially like shoots himself in the head 1373 01:16:45,720 --> 01:16:46,599 Speaker 2: with his own mouth. 1374 01:16:47,240 --> 01:16:48,400 Speaker 1: Absolutely dies. 1375 01:16:49,760 --> 01:16:53,439 Speaker 2: And he dies. Read Richards gets turned into like a 1376 01:16:53,560 --> 01:16:58,160 Speaker 2: thousand string cheese slash hot doss incredible. 1377 01:16:58,920 --> 01:16:59,519 Speaker 1: And dies. 1378 01:16:59,760 --> 01:17:03,280 Speaker 2: He He's gone, He is gone. It's not happening for 1379 01:17:03,360 --> 01:17:07,439 Speaker 2: him any more. Goodbye, sir. It is very booted. 1380 01:17:07,760 --> 01:17:11,760 Speaker 1: Captain Captain Carter gets bisected by her own shields. 1381 01:17:11,280 --> 01:17:13,880 Speaker 2: And the blood dripping off it. That is so iconic. 1382 01:17:13,960 --> 01:17:16,960 Speaker 2: It's terrifying, but it's so good. And then you have 1383 01:17:17,120 --> 01:17:20,240 Speaker 2: more of the what I will say, Ah, they're kind 1384 01:17:20,240 --> 01:17:24,679 Speaker 2: of the questionables, you know, so so oh no, Well 1385 01:17:24,720 --> 01:17:26,240 Speaker 2: we have to talk about Charles. 1386 01:17:26,800 --> 01:17:29,759 Speaker 1: Well, first let me ask you Captain morbladized by dropping 1387 01:17:29,800 --> 01:17:32,520 Speaker 1: a statue on her. Who's the statue? 1388 01:17:32,680 --> 01:17:35,439 Speaker 2: I don't know. This is something that I've really been 1389 01:17:35,479 --> 01:17:36,439 Speaker 2: trying to work out. 1390 01:17:37,000 --> 01:17:39,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I could not. Everything else there is much. 1391 01:17:39,280 --> 01:17:45,360 Speaker 2: More generic and Illuminati themed, but the statue seems prominent 1392 01:17:45,439 --> 01:17:47,960 Speaker 2: and purposeful. Maybe it will be something that we are 1393 01:17:48,000 --> 01:17:52,240 Speaker 2: taught about. It will be like retroactively important, kind of 1394 01:17:52,280 --> 01:17:55,000 Speaker 2: like how in Thor they they put the Infinity Gauntlet 1395 01:17:55,400 --> 01:17:56,960 Speaker 2: in the background and then they had to say, oh, 1396 01:17:56,960 --> 01:17:58,400 Speaker 2: that was a fake one. But I wonder if it 1397 01:17:58,400 --> 01:18:01,200 Speaker 2: will be something we get introduced to the importance of. 1398 01:18:01,640 --> 01:18:06,280 Speaker 1: It's an MCU. It's like the garb. It seemed to 1399 01:18:06,320 --> 01:18:09,400 Speaker 1: be a woman, and it looked like if anybody's played 1400 01:18:09,400 --> 01:18:11,519 Speaker 1: the video game Horizon zero Dom, Yeah, it looks like 1401 01:18:11,640 --> 01:18:18,000 Speaker 1: kind of like very like tribal style, kind of like garb, 1402 01:18:18,120 --> 01:18:21,920 Speaker 1: not armor, but more like skins and not like fully costume. 1403 01:18:22,000 --> 01:18:23,960 Speaker 1: It's hard to really tell what it was, but I 1404 01:18:24,160 --> 01:18:24,800 Speaker 1: couldn't work out. 1405 01:18:24,920 --> 01:18:26,439 Speaker 2: I wonder if they want to if it's going to 1406 01:18:26,520 --> 01:18:28,920 Speaker 2: be something to do with like hera or like another god, 1407 01:18:29,040 --> 01:18:31,040 Speaker 2: like a female god who's going to be relevant, but 1408 01:18:31,040 --> 01:18:33,040 Speaker 2: who could have also been like a Warrior at some 1409 01:18:33,120 --> 01:18:36,160 Speaker 2: point in a version of The Avengers. Also that death 1410 01:18:36,240 --> 01:18:39,920 Speaker 2: is really interesting because everyone else's deaths are incredibly final. 1411 01:18:40,439 --> 01:18:44,960 Speaker 2: We see Charles die in a really incredible moving moment 1412 01:18:45,200 --> 01:18:48,520 Speaker 2: which is very Gene gray esque, which makes absolute. 1413 01:18:48,120 --> 01:18:50,439 Speaker 1: Sense, extremely extremely you know, he. 1414 01:18:50,600 --> 01:18:54,040 Speaker 2: Enters Wonder's mind and as he finds the real Wonder 1415 01:18:54,080 --> 01:18:56,840 Speaker 2: who is trapped in there, the Scarlet Witch, the essence 1416 01:18:56,880 --> 01:19:01,680 Speaker 2: of the Scarlet Witch aka the Phoenix force like the 1417 01:19:01,800 --> 01:19:04,599 Speaker 2: redness it comes, and then she sneaks out the back 1418 01:19:04,640 --> 01:19:07,000 Speaker 2: with a demon face and snaps his neck like. That 1419 01:19:07,200 --> 01:19:12,080 Speaker 2: is brutal and scary. Maria Rambo, though she's an immortal 1420 01:19:12,160 --> 01:19:17,120 Speaker 2: alien like Cree warrior, can fly into space survive, doesn't 1421 01:19:17,120 --> 01:19:19,200 Speaker 2: need to breathe an a statue falls on her. That 1422 01:19:19,280 --> 01:19:21,840 Speaker 2: to me is the that's the questionable death. 1423 01:19:22,000 --> 01:19:24,120 Speaker 1: I agree. I think she could have. I think she 1424 01:19:24,160 --> 01:19:27,920 Speaker 1: could have powered through that also. Okay, so the fight 1425 01:19:28,560 --> 01:19:36,160 Speaker 1: rip the Illuminati again. They beat Sanos head up apparently, Yeah, 1426 01:19:36,240 --> 01:19:39,960 Speaker 1: like on Titan Like, without the big battle, without the 1427 01:19:40,040 --> 01:19:43,520 Speaker 1: backup from the as Guardians and the and the Sorcerers 1428 01:19:43,520 --> 01:19:47,880 Speaker 1: of Camatage and all the rest. It was legitimately just 1429 01:19:48,200 --> 01:19:53,760 Speaker 1: them soloing Thanos on Titan and then Scarlet Witch just 1430 01:19:54,920 --> 01:20:00,720 Speaker 1: erases them, so tough tough moment for them. Stephen back up. 1431 01:20:00,960 --> 01:20:07,400 Speaker 1: He beats Morto in a straight up fistfight. Morto survives, 1432 01:20:08,080 --> 01:20:12,200 Speaker 1: so he links back up with America and Christine. Alt Christine, 1433 01:20:12,240 --> 01:20:14,439 Speaker 1: they go running. They flee into a tunnel that runs 1434 01:20:14,520 --> 01:20:17,280 Speaker 1: under a river. They end up back at the entrance 1435 01:20:17,280 --> 01:20:19,200 Speaker 1: to the Gap Junction, the place where the Book of 1436 01:20:19,240 --> 01:20:20,800 Speaker 1: a Shandy lives that we saw at the beginning of 1437 01:20:20,880 --> 01:20:23,000 Speaker 1: the movie. And of course the only way to get 1438 01:20:23,000 --> 01:20:27,559 Speaker 1: in there is some puzzle that involves Steven's watch, so 1439 01:20:27,800 --> 01:20:31,200 Speaker 1: they get in there. But long story short, the book 1440 01:20:31,240 --> 01:20:35,080 Speaker 1: is destroyed and our friends get separated. Wanda takes America 1441 01:20:35,120 --> 01:20:37,439 Speaker 1: back to six one six Mount Wondergore, and then Stephen 1442 01:20:37,400 --> 01:20:39,000 Speaker 1: and Christine end up in a world that has been 1443 01:20:39,040 --> 01:20:43,200 Speaker 1: partially destroyed by an incursion. Stephen and Christine encounter that 1444 01:20:43,360 --> 01:20:46,640 Speaker 1: world doctor Strange, and he's absolutely fucked up. 1445 01:20:46,720 --> 01:20:46,880 Speaker 2: Dude. 1446 01:20:46,920 --> 01:20:49,320 Speaker 1: You can tell straight away this guy's you can tell 1447 01:20:49,400 --> 01:20:51,920 Speaker 1: it's not you can tell it's not on with this guy. 1448 01:20:52,000 --> 01:20:56,799 Speaker 1: Whatever is going on, you know how, Like a cable 1449 01:20:56,840 --> 01:21:02,040 Speaker 1: installer will have like that that like huge tablet that 1450 01:21:02,120 --> 01:21:04,400 Speaker 1: looks like the size of a bible that like hangs 1451 01:21:04,400 --> 01:21:07,240 Speaker 1: from their belt. That's how this version of doctor Stephen 1452 01:21:07,280 --> 01:21:10,519 Speaker 1: Strange uses has the dark Hole clip to his belt 1453 01:21:10,600 --> 01:21:12,479 Speaker 1: like a cable guy. So you know it's not on 1454 01:21:14,080 --> 01:21:17,640 Speaker 1: uh Strange six one six Strange defeats Evil Strange in 1455 01:21:17,720 --> 01:21:21,080 Speaker 1: a like an actually really cool music note battle. 1456 01:21:21,200 --> 01:21:24,439 Speaker 2: Unbelievable. You haven't seen anything like that, and you have not. 1457 01:21:25,000 --> 01:21:27,320 Speaker 2: It was not just in the MCU like this is 1458 01:21:27,880 --> 01:21:30,599 Speaker 2: straight out the pages of a comic book or video game. 1459 01:21:30,680 --> 01:21:32,240 Speaker 2: Add a Kingdom Hearts vibe. 1460 01:21:32,320 --> 01:21:35,120 Speaker 4: It's like it was amazing, amazing, And the way that 1461 01:21:35,200 --> 01:21:36,200 Speaker 4: they use music. 1462 01:21:36,240 --> 01:21:38,080 Speaker 2: I have to say, I can't believe it's to me 1463 01:21:38,160 --> 01:21:40,000 Speaker 2: this long to mention him, because he's an old favor 1464 01:21:40,000 --> 01:21:41,760 Speaker 2: of mine when I was a kid. He can he 1465 01:21:41,840 --> 01:21:44,800 Speaker 2: can go through ebbs and flows. But the score of 1466 01:21:44,840 --> 01:21:47,920 Speaker 2: this movie is by Danny Elfman, and oh my days, 1467 01:21:48,160 --> 01:21:52,080 Speaker 2: does he deliver Like you could not believe the things 1468 01:21:52,120 --> 01:21:55,040 Speaker 2: that he does in this movie. There is a scene 1469 01:21:55,040 --> 01:21:57,759 Speaker 2: that we're already passed when when Wonder Vision, when Wonder 1470 01:21:57,800 --> 01:22:00,680 Speaker 2: is using the Dark Cold and she's kind of like 1471 01:22:00,800 --> 01:22:04,120 Speaker 2: visualizing what's gonna happen in trying to dream walk and 1472 01:22:05,080 --> 01:22:09,400 Speaker 2: Sam edits it like it's the year two thousand and 1473 01:22:09,800 --> 01:22:13,840 Speaker 2: Elfman scores it like it's the Electra movie the Fox made, 1474 01:22:13,880 --> 01:22:17,200 Speaker 2: and it is fantastic. It is like the most goth 1475 01:22:17,320 --> 01:22:19,679 Speaker 2: shit I've ever seen. And I was just like, I 1476 01:22:19,720 --> 01:22:22,160 Speaker 2: when this movie comes out, that will be the scene. 1477 01:22:22,200 --> 01:22:24,920 Speaker 2: That and the music Note scene are gonna be Thort 1478 01:22:24,920 --> 01:22:27,200 Speaker 2: picking up the hammer for me from Endgame. It's ever 1479 01:22:27,479 --> 01:22:28,000 Speaker 2: going back. 1480 01:22:28,240 --> 01:22:31,040 Speaker 1: It is the music Note fight. It reminded me. It's 1481 01:22:32,000 --> 01:22:36,360 Speaker 1: like the most original fight since the ant Man Suitcase 1482 01:22:36,360 --> 01:22:38,800 Speaker 1: fight against Yellowjacket, which I was just like, this is 1483 01:22:38,840 --> 01:22:41,400 Speaker 1: so cool. I've never seen anything like this. The music 1484 01:22:41,439 --> 01:22:47,320 Speaker 1: Note fight is just it's awesome. Eventually, with Christine's help, 1485 01:22:47,800 --> 01:22:50,720 Speaker 1: Strange defeats Evil. Strange grabs the dark hole. That's like, okay, 1486 01:22:50,760 --> 01:22:54,120 Speaker 1: here's the plan. I'm gonna dream walk into the corpse 1487 01:22:54,160 --> 01:22:56,479 Speaker 1: of myself that I buried on the rooftop. Good thing 1488 01:22:56,920 --> 01:23:02,000 Speaker 1: I did that, folks. Corpse Strange arrives in the vicinity 1489 01:23:02,080 --> 01:23:04,519 Speaker 1: of Mount wonder Gore and is immediately waylaid by the 1490 01:23:04,520 --> 01:23:06,439 Speaker 1: souls of the damned. Who are the souls of the damned? 1491 01:23:06,439 --> 01:23:06,760 Speaker 2: You ask? 1492 01:23:07,280 --> 01:23:11,559 Speaker 1: They are just damned souls. That that kind of like 1493 01:23:12,120 --> 01:23:16,160 Speaker 1: walk the dimensional fields and are just like very very angry, 1494 01:23:16,160 --> 01:23:18,599 Speaker 1: and they hate everything, and they especially hate like dead 1495 01:23:18,640 --> 01:23:22,800 Speaker 1: bodies that are kind of alive, like yeah, being the Yeah, 1496 01:23:22,840 --> 01:23:23,799 Speaker 1: they don't like neckar. 1497 01:23:24,520 --> 01:23:26,760 Speaker 2: And the coolest thing is like he's those things are 1498 01:23:26,800 --> 01:23:29,679 Speaker 2: gonna kill him right, And then Christine has this moment 1499 01:23:29,760 --> 01:23:33,000 Speaker 2: that is so great and well written where she can 1500 01:23:33,040 --> 01:23:35,400 Speaker 2: see is gonna die and she says, you are a 1501 01:23:35,400 --> 01:23:40,800 Speaker 2: master of the mystic arts, use their spirits and love and. 1502 01:23:40,760 --> 01:23:45,360 Speaker 1: Behold, he Gundam suits them. They did They turn into 1503 01:23:45,400 --> 01:23:49,120 Speaker 1: like wings or tentacles or appended. He flies whatever he 1504 01:23:49,160 --> 01:23:51,439 Speaker 1: needs and he flies over to Mount Wonderguard. Now we 1505 01:23:51,479 --> 01:23:54,760 Speaker 1: get the big fight and Wong, who we once thought dead, 1506 01:23:55,080 --> 01:23:57,000 Speaker 1: thrown off the cliff. Of course he wasn't. We knew 1507 01:23:57,000 --> 01:24:01,920 Speaker 1: he wasn't dead. She's killed the Sorceres Supreme baby he 1508 01:24:01,920 --> 01:24:05,880 Speaker 1: gets into the action. Eventually, America punches Wanda through a 1509 01:24:05,920 --> 01:24:09,439 Speaker 1: portal which takes her to Earth eight three eight slash 1510 01:24:09,520 --> 01:24:11,640 Speaker 1: nine three eight we haven't decided to get and she 1511 01:24:11,760 --> 01:24:14,479 Speaker 1: comes face to vase with the mom version of herself 1512 01:24:14,520 --> 01:24:18,400 Speaker 1: that she had hijacked, and they fight. Billy and Tommy 1513 01:24:18,400 --> 01:24:22,040 Speaker 1: are truly horrified by six one six Scarlett, which and 1514 01:24:22,120 --> 01:24:26,680 Speaker 1: realizing that she has what she's become, Wanda chooses to 1515 01:24:26,760 --> 01:24:29,639 Speaker 1: leave the kids with Mom. Wanda and destroys the wonder 1516 01:24:29,680 --> 01:24:31,960 Speaker 1: Gore Throne and the tower drops on top of Wanda, 1517 01:24:32,040 --> 01:24:36,599 Speaker 1: who is dead, but it's left very very very vague. 1518 01:24:37,400 --> 01:24:41,160 Speaker 2: This is a This is a very accurate representation of 1519 01:24:41,520 --> 01:24:43,560 Speaker 2: Wander in the comics and the way wan Day is 1520 01:24:43,560 --> 01:24:45,920 Speaker 2: treated in the comics, And if we go by that, 1521 01:24:46,040 --> 01:24:48,599 Speaker 2: then she's probably gonna not be dead forever. 1522 01:24:48,960 --> 01:24:53,639 Speaker 1: And really interesting, Wanda has died many, many times, so she. 1523 01:24:54,000 --> 01:24:57,400 Speaker 2: We earlier saw in the movie that when somebody destroyed 1524 01:24:57,439 --> 01:24:59,640 Speaker 2: the Dark Horde, they died, right, and Wonder destroys the 1525 01:24:59,680 --> 01:25:02,200 Speaker 2: Dark hor by pulling Mount Wondergore on top of hers 1526 01:25:02,200 --> 01:25:02,920 Speaker 2: so no one else. 1527 01:25:02,760 --> 01:25:03,240 Speaker 1: Can use it. 1528 01:25:03,280 --> 01:25:08,000 Speaker 2: She's taken responsibility for actions. But very interestingly, Stephen then 1529 01:25:08,080 --> 01:25:11,440 Speaker 2: learns that the Dark Hole has been destroyed in every universe. 1530 01:25:16,600 --> 01:25:23,360 Speaker 1: Okay, So America opens a portal and brings Strange back 1531 01:25:23,400 --> 01:25:26,720 Speaker 1: from the Evil Incursion world sends Christine back to eight 1532 01:25:26,760 --> 01:25:30,880 Speaker 1: three eight slash nine three eight. America stays at Carmotage 1533 01:25:31,040 --> 01:25:35,400 Speaker 1: training magic shades of Strange Academy. Yes, Strange as first student. 1534 01:25:35,479 --> 01:25:37,479 Speaker 1: I think we're going to get it right. Whether it's 1535 01:25:37,479 --> 01:25:39,559 Speaker 1: a Disney Plus show up, whatever, I think. 1536 01:25:39,400 --> 01:25:41,120 Speaker 2: It's going to be Strange Academy. But I think what 1537 01:25:41,160 --> 01:25:46,360 Speaker 2: they're going for here is like Wong and America together, 1538 01:25:46,560 --> 01:25:49,240 Speaker 2: Wong as the mental Wong as the leader of the 1539 01:25:49,280 --> 01:25:53,160 Speaker 2: Strange Academy. And then we will get to that moment 1540 01:25:53,280 --> 01:25:55,680 Speaker 2: that's probably going to lead to what we see for Stephen. 1541 01:25:56,439 --> 01:26:00,720 Speaker 1: Very excited, so Strange fixes the watch that Esteine gave him, 1542 01:26:00,760 --> 01:26:05,240 Speaker 1: the twenty three thousand dollars plus watch, goes to take 1543 01:26:05,280 --> 01:26:08,920 Speaker 1: a walk outside, strolling a wonderful day out of New York, 1544 01:26:08,920 --> 01:26:12,600 Speaker 1: and then he collapses because a third eye opened on 1545 01:26:12,640 --> 01:26:16,120 Speaker 1: his forehead, much like the third eye that had opened 1546 01:26:16,400 --> 01:26:19,680 Speaker 1: on the evil Doctor Strange, that the one that had 1547 01:26:19,720 --> 01:26:23,200 Speaker 1: been using the Dark Hold for an unknown amount of 1548 01:26:23,280 --> 01:26:27,879 Speaker 1: time back on the incursion destroyed Earth. So now Steven 1549 01:26:27,960 --> 01:26:32,200 Speaker 1: we know has been corrupted to some level. The amount 1550 01:26:32,240 --> 01:26:34,360 Speaker 1: we don't know, but he has been corrupted a little 1551 01:26:34,439 --> 01:26:37,479 Speaker 1: bit by the Dark Hold. Yes, we get the credits 1552 01:26:38,120 --> 01:26:39,439 Speaker 1: and it has taken its. 1553 01:26:39,520 --> 01:26:41,679 Speaker 2: And the eye opens on his head, and then Danny 1554 01:26:41,720 --> 01:26:45,560 Speaker 2: Elfman goes wow and then it comes to the credits. Incredible, 1555 01:26:45,560 --> 01:26:50,280 Speaker 2: now first stinger, Doctor Strange. Time has passed. See, he 1556 01:26:50,560 --> 01:26:53,800 Speaker 2: is obviously chill, comfortable, he's chill. He's comfortable with his 1557 01:26:53,880 --> 01:26:56,360 Speaker 2: third eye. That's that's just there on his head, not 1558 01:26:56,400 --> 01:26:58,120 Speaker 2: that I don't think anybody can see it. Probably just 1559 01:26:58,200 --> 01:27:00,479 Speaker 2: him or we don't know, but he's see, he's comfortable 1560 01:27:00,479 --> 01:27:03,000 Speaker 2: with it. She's just walking around New York City when. 1561 01:27:03,680 --> 01:27:06,719 Speaker 1: What should happen but a portal opens from some strange dimension, 1562 01:27:06,720 --> 01:27:10,000 Speaker 1: and who should come out? It's his comics girlfriend Clear, 1563 01:27:11,320 --> 01:27:15,519 Speaker 1: played by the Great Charlie's Saran and wearing like the 1564 01:27:15,600 --> 01:27:20,040 Speaker 1: eighties nineties class purple. 1565 01:27:19,760 --> 01:27:24,880 Speaker 2: Leather shoulder pads. She's got this iconically striking purple armor 1566 01:27:24,920 --> 01:27:27,519 Speaker 2: that's totally over the top. And she's like, you caused 1567 01:27:27,520 --> 01:27:29,680 Speaker 2: an incursion, babe, We're going. 1568 01:27:30,000 --> 01:27:31,600 Speaker 1: We gotta go fix it. What do you need to 1569 01:27:31,600 --> 01:27:33,760 Speaker 1: know more? And he's like, not really, let's go. 1570 01:27:34,720 --> 01:27:37,639 Speaker 2: Little eye opens, boom, and then they and they walk 1571 01:27:37,680 --> 01:27:41,080 Speaker 2: into the dark dimension from where we see doctor Strange before, 1572 01:27:41,960 --> 01:27:45,400 Speaker 2: where he fought Demamu and in the comics, Clear is 1573 01:27:45,439 --> 01:27:49,000 Speaker 2: the niece of Demamu and is the Sorceress Supreme of 1574 01:27:49,080 --> 01:27:51,120 Speaker 2: the Dark dimension. So they walk through there and it's 1575 01:27:51,160 --> 01:27:56,000 Speaker 2: like cool, Steep, and I will say something this movie 1576 01:27:56,000 --> 01:27:57,519 Speaker 2: set up that we did not include in the recap 1577 01:27:57,560 --> 01:28:01,520 Speaker 2: because it was like very in the weeds emotional moments. 1578 01:28:01,960 --> 01:28:04,920 Speaker 2: The whole movie sets up Stephen basically learning that in 1579 01:28:05,040 --> 01:28:08,160 Speaker 2: every single universe he will never be with Christine. That's 1580 01:28:08,200 --> 01:28:11,479 Speaker 2: not happening. He's a wasteman. She doesn't want nothing to 1581 01:28:11,479 --> 01:28:15,120 Speaker 2: do with him. She's marrying someone else. Every America, America's 1582 01:28:15,120 --> 01:28:19,200 Speaker 2: always like, are you with Christine? No? Never Christine? And 1583 01:28:19,240 --> 01:28:21,719 Speaker 2: the last Christine who he seems to have this connection 1584 01:28:21,800 --> 01:28:25,640 Speaker 2: with the Illuminati universe. Christine. She says, you got to 1585 01:28:25,680 --> 01:28:27,760 Speaker 2: allow it. You got to give yourself open to love. 1586 01:28:27,800 --> 01:28:29,400 Speaker 2: You got to fall in love and then lo and 1587 01:28:29,439 --> 01:28:34,360 Speaker 2: behold his eight hot age appropriate cosmic comic book wildly 1588 01:28:34,680 --> 01:28:37,559 Speaker 2: turns up and he's like, I'm doing it, baby, I'm 1589 01:28:37,560 --> 01:28:38,800 Speaker 2: going to the dark Dimension. 1590 01:28:39,439 --> 01:28:43,120 Speaker 1: I gotta say again, it is shocking to me. If 1591 01:28:43,200 --> 01:28:47,400 Speaker 1: your girlfriend gives you a twenty three thousand dollars fucking 1592 01:28:47,560 --> 01:28:52,719 Speaker 1: watch and you guys break up. You fucked up somehow, Stephen. 1593 01:28:52,760 --> 01:28:54,600 Speaker 1: But yeah, but it's great to have Clear around. I 1594 01:28:54,640 --> 01:28:55,080 Speaker 1: love Clear. 1595 01:28:55,240 --> 01:28:57,559 Speaker 2: She doesn't look like she's gonna give him any presents 1596 01:28:57,760 --> 01:28:59,400 Speaker 2: or let him break up with her, and he needs 1597 01:28:59,400 --> 01:29:00,559 Speaker 2: the energy in his life. 1598 01:29:00,600 --> 01:29:02,760 Speaker 1: No present, that is what he needs. We go to 1599 01:29:02,800 --> 01:29:05,519 Speaker 1: the second Stinger. Now back on Earth eight three eight 1600 01:29:05,600 --> 01:29:10,479 Speaker 1: slash nine three eight, when Steven and America had encountered 1601 01:29:10,520 --> 01:29:13,320 Speaker 1: the Pizza ball Man played by Bruce Campbell. America was 1602 01:29:13,320 --> 01:29:15,120 Speaker 1: telling Steven, you don't have to pay for anything in 1603 01:29:15,160 --> 01:29:18,040 Speaker 1: any universe. Six six six one six is the only 1604 01:29:18,120 --> 01:29:20,479 Speaker 1: universe where they make you pay for food. In every 1605 01:29:20,479 --> 01:29:24,559 Speaker 1: other universe. It's a basic human right. And Bruce Campbell's like, no, actually, 1606 01:29:24,640 --> 01:29:25,880 Speaker 1: you gotta pay for this. What the fuck are you 1607 01:29:25,880 --> 01:29:30,040 Speaker 1: talking about? So Stephen Strange cast a spell that Bruce 1608 01:29:30,080 --> 01:29:32,920 Speaker 1: Campbell to punch himself in the face for like what 1609 01:29:33,040 --> 01:29:34,120 Speaker 1: was it, three days. 1610 01:29:33,840 --> 01:29:37,200 Speaker 2: Three weeks, three weeks, two weeks, So the final sting off, 1611 01:29:37,439 --> 01:29:39,560 Speaker 2: we see Bruce Campbell, famous for being Ash from the 1612 01:29:40,200 --> 01:29:42,400 Speaker 2: Evil Dead, and he's punching himself in the face with 1613 01:29:42,479 --> 01:29:44,479 Speaker 2: the left hand, which is a big Evil Dead bit, 1614 01:29:44,800 --> 01:29:47,719 Speaker 2: and then he's like it finally stops, and he looks 1615 01:29:47,760 --> 01:29:48,439 Speaker 2: to the camera. 1616 01:29:50,080 --> 01:29:53,760 Speaker 1: It's over, just like Evil Dead. It is a wonderful 1617 01:29:53,880 --> 01:29:58,040 Speaker 1: nod to the Sam Raimi oove. And with that, let 1618 01:29:58,160 --> 01:30:01,040 Speaker 1: us talk about this movie. What did we say about it, Rosie, 1619 01:30:01,040 --> 01:30:02,920 Speaker 1: I really had a great time. I think that they're 1620 01:30:03,880 --> 01:30:06,400 Speaker 1: I think, you know, some people have criticized, you know, 1621 01:30:06,520 --> 01:30:10,800 Speaker 1: I think that there are Certainly the emotional steaks are 1622 01:30:10,840 --> 01:30:13,559 Speaker 1: different because there's no will they won't it. With Christian 1623 01:30:13,640 --> 01:30:17,000 Speaker 1: it's always a won't you know from Jump they ain't 1624 01:30:17,040 --> 01:30:20,800 Speaker 1: getting together. So where does the other emotional stakes come in? 1625 01:30:21,280 --> 01:30:25,040 Speaker 1: And it's mostly from his relationship with like his own 1626 01:30:25,160 --> 01:30:29,559 Speaker 1: moral code and his virgionaling relationship with America, and also 1627 01:30:29,640 --> 01:30:32,920 Speaker 1: Wong just being a badass. But like, listen, I'm in 1628 01:30:32,960 --> 01:30:35,160 Speaker 1: the tank for Sam Raimi, I'm in the tank for 1629 01:30:35,200 --> 01:30:38,200 Speaker 1: Marvel Magic. I really had a great time. I thought 1630 01:30:38,200 --> 01:30:39,240 Speaker 1: it was super fun. 1631 01:30:39,320 --> 01:30:40,920 Speaker 2: I thought it was brilliant. You know, something that we 1632 01:30:40,960 --> 01:30:42,519 Speaker 2: talk about a lot because it's the way we look 1633 01:30:42,560 --> 01:30:44,880 Speaker 2: at this stuff. Right, you can have these movies for 1634 01:30:45,040 --> 01:30:48,160 Speaker 2: like everyone, and that's not just in the scope of 1635 01:30:48,680 --> 01:30:53,400 Speaker 2: representation or characters that you like or don't like. I 1636 01:30:53,439 --> 01:30:55,320 Speaker 2: think we live in a world where there should be 1637 01:30:55,360 --> 01:30:57,479 Speaker 2: a comic book movie, and there can be a comic 1638 01:30:57,479 --> 01:30:59,559 Speaker 2: book movie when there's five of them coming out a 1639 01:30:59,600 --> 01:31:01,880 Speaker 2: year or ever. You know, that just feels like you're 1640 01:31:01,880 --> 01:31:03,840 Speaker 2: picking up a comic book. To me, this is like 1641 01:31:04,240 --> 01:31:07,840 Speaker 2: me and you wandered down to like secret headquarters and 1642 01:31:07,920 --> 01:31:10,400 Speaker 2: we both picked out a twenty five cent like quarter 1643 01:31:10,400 --> 01:31:13,519 Speaker 2: a bin issue because that's what I wish still happened 1644 01:31:13,520 --> 01:31:15,280 Speaker 2: in every comic shop. But you pick out that back 1645 01:31:15,320 --> 01:31:17,920 Speaker 2: issue and you read it. Maybe you know we know 1646 01:31:18,000 --> 01:31:20,200 Speaker 2: all these characters because this is this is our thing. 1647 01:31:20,240 --> 01:31:23,280 Speaker 2: But like, even if you didn't, I love the way 1648 01:31:23,320 --> 01:31:26,400 Speaker 2: that like this felt like that it felt like you 1649 01:31:26,439 --> 01:31:29,439 Speaker 2: were on an adventure that felt like an old forty serial. 1650 01:31:29,560 --> 01:31:31,439 Speaker 2: It felt like you could just jump in and out. 1651 01:31:31,600 --> 01:31:35,080 Speaker 2: I thought something really cool was the way that America 1652 01:31:35,160 --> 01:31:38,400 Speaker 2: was introduced as a wholly rounded character. Yeah, you knew her, 1653 01:31:38,479 --> 01:31:41,200 Speaker 2: and she had a backstory, she had a power, she 1654 01:31:41,360 --> 01:31:44,719 Speaker 2: existed in her own world and she came into ours 1655 01:31:44,720 --> 01:31:48,040 Speaker 2: and something else that I thought was really cool. And 1656 01:31:48,080 --> 01:31:50,040 Speaker 2: you know, we've talked about Joe Casey and how he 1657 01:31:50,080 --> 01:31:53,000 Speaker 2: didn't get paid and he did his creative collaborator and 1658 01:31:53,040 --> 01:31:56,320 Speaker 2: that really sucks and I hate that and it makes 1659 01:31:56,320 --> 01:31:57,920 Speaker 2: me so bummed out and I think about this stuff. 1660 01:31:57,920 --> 01:31:59,639 Speaker 2: But like something I thought they did that was really 1661 01:31:59,680 --> 01:32:03,240 Speaker 2: cool with America was when they showed her are they 1662 01:32:03,360 --> 01:32:06,280 Speaker 2: briefly show her backstory and she's from you know, the 1663 01:32:06,400 --> 01:32:10,479 Speaker 2: utopian parallel as we know it, a dimension where she 1664 01:32:10,600 --> 01:32:13,280 Speaker 2: had gay moms, and they show that and they're in love, 1665 01:32:13,320 --> 01:32:15,200 Speaker 2: and they really focus on it, and they actually did 1666 01:32:15,240 --> 01:32:17,120 Speaker 2: a lot more than I thought they would. But what's 1667 01:32:17,160 --> 01:32:19,519 Speaker 2: really cool is the first time she opens a portal, 1668 01:32:20,560 --> 01:32:23,080 Speaker 2: she sends her parents through it, and she's lived with 1669 01:32:23,120 --> 01:32:26,160 Speaker 2: this grief her whole life. Now in the comics, it's 1670 01:32:26,280 --> 01:32:29,440 Speaker 2: much more of a kill your gaze situation. Yes, America's 1671 01:32:29,520 --> 01:32:32,599 Speaker 2: home planet was destroyed, her gay parents were dead boo. 1672 01:32:33,120 --> 01:32:36,400 Speaker 2: In this, I love the notion that they seed, and 1673 01:32:36,400 --> 01:32:39,559 Speaker 2: that Stephen seeds that even though America didn't always know 1674 01:32:39,600 --> 01:32:42,840 Speaker 2: how to control her powers, that intention behind each one 1675 01:32:43,160 --> 01:32:46,240 Speaker 2: always took people to the right place. And I love 1676 01:32:46,320 --> 01:32:50,800 Speaker 2: the aspect here that potentially America will get to meet 1677 01:32:50,800 --> 01:32:53,400 Speaker 2: her parents again and really in that moment, her mutant 1678 01:32:53,439 --> 01:32:57,439 Speaker 2: powers manifested in a way that helped them, that helped her, 1679 01:32:57,520 --> 01:32:59,880 Speaker 2: that put her on the right path. There were little 1680 01:32:59,880 --> 01:33:02,680 Speaker 2: bits of storytelling there that I actually think we're like 1681 01:33:02,760 --> 01:33:05,719 Speaker 2: quite layered, but they, you know, I understand how also 1682 01:33:05,760 --> 01:33:10,080 Speaker 2: it's like this bombastic music fight horror movie. So but yeah, no, 1683 01:33:10,120 --> 01:33:12,880 Speaker 2: I mean I loved it. That's like, that's really high 1684 01:33:13,000 --> 01:33:15,120 Speaker 2: up there in my MCU ranking. I just thought it 1685 01:33:15,160 --> 01:33:17,599 Speaker 2: was That's like, to me, is like a that's up 1686 01:33:17,600 --> 01:33:21,760 Speaker 2: there with like thor Ragnarok on like a reimagining and 1687 01:33:21,840 --> 01:33:24,919 Speaker 2: restructuring of the tone of a character in a sequel. 1688 01:33:25,120 --> 01:33:26,240 Speaker 2: I just thought it was so great. 1689 01:33:26,520 --> 01:33:30,240 Speaker 1: I completely agree. Here's a thing that I think could happen. 1690 01:33:30,479 --> 01:33:33,320 Speaker 1: You know, we love to theorize here. The most fun 1691 01:33:33,840 --> 01:33:40,320 Speaker 1: first arc of Young Avengers involves the parents, the families 1692 01:33:40,400 --> 01:33:43,720 Speaker 1: of a lot of the characters there, and very very 1693 01:33:43,840 --> 01:33:48,040 Speaker 1: very notably America Shavas and I think in a say 1694 01:33:48,080 --> 01:33:51,280 Speaker 1: a future Disney plus Young Avengers show or something like that, 1695 01:33:52,320 --> 01:33:55,000 Speaker 1: the way we can get the team together that would 1696 01:33:55,000 --> 01:33:58,640 Speaker 1: be America. She's testing out her power. She's looking for 1697 01:33:58,680 --> 01:34:02,480 Speaker 1: the dimension where her parents are. What does she find instead? 1698 01:34:03,080 --> 01:34:05,839 Speaker 1: She finds like a kid version of Loki. She finds 1699 01:34:05,920 --> 01:34:09,920 Speaker 1: like all of her friends in this in this mission 1700 01:34:10,000 --> 01:34:15,439 Speaker 1: to like find her her parents, and then she I 1701 01:34:15,479 --> 01:34:18,120 Speaker 1: don't want to spoil the first arc of Young Avengers, 1702 01:34:18,120 --> 01:34:19,840 Speaker 1: but maybe she finds them and they're not quite what 1703 01:34:19,920 --> 01:34:22,719 Speaker 1: she thinks, but I think that no, I think obviously 1704 01:34:22,760 --> 01:34:26,839 Speaker 1: going to play a role, a very propulsive role in America. 1705 01:34:26,880 --> 01:34:29,320 Speaker 1: Shavs is arc going forward into the MCU and the 1706 01:34:29,400 --> 01:34:30,080 Speaker 1: Disney Plus. 1707 01:34:30,120 --> 01:34:32,080 Speaker 2: I think you're one hundred percent right because also, like 1708 01:34:32,160 --> 01:34:35,360 Speaker 2: the first issue of that, the Jamie mckalviy, Kieran Gilla and. 1709 01:34:35,880 --> 01:34:38,160 Speaker 1: Matt Wilson stuff excellent, so fun, it's so. 1710 01:34:38,240 --> 01:34:41,120 Speaker 2: Brilliant, and it has a really big tie to Wonder 1711 01:34:41,160 --> 01:34:43,680 Speaker 2: and a really big tie role as a mother and 1712 01:34:43,760 --> 01:34:46,120 Speaker 2: her role as a parent. And we have now been 1713 01:34:46,200 --> 01:34:50,839 Speaker 2: introduced in these shows, everyone has a tragic parent origin. 1714 01:34:51,160 --> 01:34:55,000 Speaker 2: Kate Bishop, yeah Eli from Falcon and the Winter Soldier. 1715 01:34:55,040 --> 01:34:57,680 Speaker 2: He lives with his granddad, who was you know, destroyed 1716 01:34:57,760 --> 01:35:01,120 Speaker 2: the first real captain America and he was ignored, he 1717 01:35:01,200 --> 01:35:05,160 Speaker 2: was imprisoned by the government. Everyone has a tragic parent 1718 01:35:05,280 --> 01:35:09,640 Speaker 2: backstory that I think could be a very smart way 1719 01:35:09,760 --> 01:35:12,760 Speaker 2: of tying into to a young Avengers show. I think 1720 01:35:12,800 --> 01:35:14,439 Speaker 2: that's really clever. 1721 01:35:14,640 --> 01:35:17,920 Speaker 1: I mean, like, as we learned in this movie, this 1722 01:35:18,000 --> 01:35:19,920 Speaker 1: is the only dimension six p. One sixty, the only 1723 01:35:19,920 --> 01:35:23,439 Speaker 1: dimension where Billy and Tommy Wicken and Speed don't they 1724 01:35:23,479 --> 01:35:26,080 Speaker 1: don't exist. We know they exist in that eight three 1725 01:35:26,080 --> 01:35:28,680 Speaker 1: eight nineth thrty eight, and we know they've been traumatized 1726 01:35:28,680 --> 01:35:31,559 Speaker 1: by watching their mom duke it out with an evil 1727 01:35:31,640 --> 01:35:35,600 Speaker 1: version of herself, and like, uh, you gotta figure if 1728 01:35:35,640 --> 01:35:37,840 Speaker 1: they're gonna assemble the Young Avengers, they have to get 1729 01:35:37,880 --> 01:35:39,920 Speaker 1: them from somewhere, and I would imagine they'll get them 1730 01:35:39,920 --> 01:35:43,280 Speaker 1: from there where they have that perfect kind of like 1731 01:35:43,360 --> 01:35:46,960 Speaker 1: bad mom backstory, but of course it's not really their mom. 1732 01:35:47,040 --> 01:35:49,160 Speaker 2: I think that's really smart as well, because like, let's 1733 01:35:49,200 --> 01:35:52,640 Speaker 2: talk about the other big, big elephant in the in 1734 01:35:52,680 --> 01:35:55,559 Speaker 2: the where do they come back from room, which is Wonder. 1735 01:35:56,000 --> 01:35:58,760 Speaker 2: I thought this arc for Wonder was actually brilliant, and 1736 01:35:58,800 --> 01:36:05,200 Speaker 2: I think it's really very much equivalent to what happens 1737 01:36:05,240 --> 01:36:07,840 Speaker 2: in the comics, where she gets this sort of deep 1738 01:36:07,960 --> 01:36:10,880 Speaker 2: character arcs that make you really care about her, and 1739 01:36:10,920 --> 01:36:14,639 Speaker 2: she has this human moments and then by editorial edict 1740 01:36:14,760 --> 01:36:17,599 Speaker 2: or create a choice that's all blown up and she's evil. 1741 01:36:17,640 --> 01:36:19,840 Speaker 2: She's very much Magneto's daughter in that way. She goes 1742 01:36:19,880 --> 01:36:23,919 Speaker 2: from good to bad and her powers become incredibly powerful 1743 01:36:24,160 --> 01:36:26,240 Speaker 2: or not at all powerful, and she's a mother living 1744 01:36:26,280 --> 01:36:29,120 Speaker 2: in the suburbs, and she's a universe creating woman, And 1745 01:36:29,160 --> 01:36:31,720 Speaker 2: to me this felt very much in that vein, and 1746 01:36:31,760 --> 01:36:35,960 Speaker 2: I didn't necessarily feel the moral quandary of her wanting 1747 01:36:36,000 --> 01:36:38,640 Speaker 2: to kill America being that much different than what she 1748 01:36:38,680 --> 01:36:42,519 Speaker 2: did in Westview. But I know that some Wonder lovers 1749 01:36:43,000 --> 01:36:46,800 Speaker 2: were not a huge fan of this arc. Woulagine, Yeah, 1750 01:36:46,840 --> 01:36:49,040 Speaker 2: you know, it's really hard to watch your favorite character 1751 01:36:49,080 --> 01:36:53,880 Speaker 2: who's very emotionally relatable become a villain, a true villain. 1752 01:36:54,200 --> 01:36:57,280 Speaker 2: So she drops them out wondergre on herself destroys these 1753 01:36:57,360 --> 01:36:59,599 Speaker 2: dark Cords. What do you do you think we get 1754 01:36:59,600 --> 01:37:01,960 Speaker 2: a kind of Wonder reincarnation. Do you think she's in 1755 01:37:02,040 --> 01:37:04,680 Speaker 2: some kind of Aldrich Georgard or do you think we 1756 01:37:04,760 --> 01:37:07,519 Speaker 2: get eight three eight nine three eight mom Wanda as 1757 01:37:07,560 --> 01:37:08,280 Speaker 2: a superhero. 1758 01:37:09,200 --> 01:37:12,120 Speaker 1: I think what we get with the destruction of the 1759 01:37:12,439 --> 01:37:17,559 Speaker 1: of the all the dark holes theoretically burning out the 1760 01:37:17,600 --> 01:37:20,120 Speaker 1: corruption that that Wanda had had. 1761 01:37:21,800 --> 01:37:22,280 Speaker 2: I like that. 1762 01:37:22,520 --> 01:37:27,080 Speaker 1: Studying it, right, I think we're gonna get some version 1763 01:37:27,120 --> 01:37:31,519 Speaker 1: of like like a permanent dream walking like. So we 1764 01:37:31,520 --> 01:37:34,360 Speaker 1: we've introduced and we've talked about the possibility that there 1765 01:37:34,400 --> 01:37:38,040 Speaker 1: are that there are these nexus individuals who are whose 1766 01:37:38,120 --> 01:37:42,280 Speaker 1: existence is like vital to the way the multiverse works, 1767 01:37:42,280 --> 01:37:44,559 Speaker 1: that they all they exist in every single dimension, right, 1768 01:37:44,560 --> 01:37:46,720 Speaker 1: And we saw Wanda in nine three eight slash eight 1769 01:37:46,720 --> 01:37:53,559 Speaker 1: three eight. What if by this dream walking process, Wanda 1770 01:37:53,600 --> 01:37:56,439 Speaker 1: of course is responsible for the things she did, but 1771 01:37:57,520 --> 01:38:00,479 Speaker 1: the goodness of the other versions of Wanda, like she's 1772 01:38:00,520 --> 01:38:05,680 Speaker 1: able to interact, engage with that somehow, that kind of 1773 01:38:05,720 --> 01:38:09,240 Speaker 1: nexus being kind of like thing where listen, I don't 1774 01:38:09,240 --> 01:38:11,000 Speaker 1: think she's dead one hundred percent if you don't think 1775 01:38:11,040 --> 01:38:14,479 Speaker 1: about it, she does and she's die again. I can't 1776 01:38:14,479 --> 01:38:16,360 Speaker 1: say it enough. She has died so many times in 1777 01:38:16,360 --> 01:38:19,320 Speaker 1: the comics and disappeared, turned into a puff of smoke, 1778 01:38:19,720 --> 01:38:23,320 Speaker 1: disappears for like five legitimate real world years, and then 1779 01:38:23,400 --> 01:38:27,280 Speaker 1: comes back living in like Milan or something where she 1780 01:38:27,320 --> 01:38:29,680 Speaker 1: falls in love with Hawkeye. Weirdly like, stuff like that 1781 01:38:29,720 --> 01:38:30,400 Speaker 1: happens all the time. 1782 01:38:30,439 --> 01:38:32,679 Speaker 2: And I want to say as well, like we've talked 1783 01:38:32,680 --> 01:38:34,160 Speaker 2: a lot about this, and you were really the one 1784 01:38:34,160 --> 01:38:36,080 Speaker 2: who brought up and I think it's so legit like 1785 01:38:36,280 --> 01:38:38,360 Speaker 2: and after watching this movie it really made me think 1786 01:38:38,360 --> 01:38:41,280 Speaker 2: about it. But the uh, you know, the Trial of 1787 01:38:41,320 --> 01:38:42,360 Speaker 2: Magneto arc. 1788 01:38:42,520 --> 01:38:45,200 Speaker 1: That they recently did so much, this. 1789 01:38:45,360 --> 01:38:50,240 Speaker 2: Really feels like an encompassing space where in that book 1790 01:38:50,520 --> 01:38:53,080 Speaker 2: her different versions of her life and the different parts 1791 01:38:53,120 --> 01:38:55,200 Speaker 2: of her past come together to give her a certain 1792 01:38:55,240 --> 01:38:58,120 Speaker 2: amount of peace and a certain amount of clarity and 1793 01:38:58,160 --> 01:39:02,040 Speaker 2: a certain amount of happiness and and you know closure. 1794 01:39:02,400 --> 01:39:04,639 Speaker 2: And I feel like people have long wanted a scarlet 1795 01:39:04,640 --> 01:39:07,799 Speaker 2: which movie and I would love to see a movie 1796 01:39:07,880 --> 01:39:10,639 Speaker 2: or a wonder Vision style show which is wonder going 1797 01:39:10,720 --> 01:39:13,760 Speaker 2: through those versions and finding that piece and finding that 1798 01:39:13,880 --> 01:39:17,320 Speaker 2: acceptance and that happiness which she takes one step close 1799 01:39:17,400 --> 01:39:20,519 Speaker 2: to at the end of this movie by allowing Mom 1800 01:39:20,600 --> 01:39:25,160 Speaker 2: Wander to raise the kids and get that reassurance from 1801 01:39:25,200 --> 01:39:27,080 Speaker 2: her that you know, the kids will be okay, they 1802 01:39:27,120 --> 01:39:27,759 Speaker 2: will be loved. 1803 01:39:28,240 --> 01:39:32,240 Speaker 1: And for those Wanda stands out there, I count myself 1804 01:39:32,240 --> 01:39:37,600 Speaker 1: among them. Absolutely take solace in the fact that the 1805 01:39:37,720 --> 01:39:42,280 Speaker 1: Dark Holed absolutely took its toll. And Wanda like, yeah, 1806 01:39:42,600 --> 01:39:45,160 Speaker 1: does she do villainous shit in this Yes, and absolutely 1807 01:39:45,160 --> 01:39:48,080 Speaker 1: she should take responsibility, that she should acknowledge that whenever, 1808 01:39:48,840 --> 01:39:51,479 Speaker 1: whenever she comes back into our lives as a member 1809 01:39:51,479 --> 01:39:54,960 Speaker 1: of the MCU. But also realized that like the influence 1810 01:39:55,000 --> 01:39:56,600 Speaker 1: of the Dark Hold was very very strong, as we 1811 01:39:56,640 --> 01:39:58,759 Speaker 1: saw what it did to Strange in the corrupted dimension, 1812 01:39:58,840 --> 01:40:03,800 Speaker 1: like she did bad stuff, but the Dark Hold was 1813 01:40:04,120 --> 01:40:07,120 Speaker 1: also influencing her to do that bad stuff. 1814 01:40:07,160 --> 01:40:08,679 Speaker 2: I think that's a really good point. And I think 1815 01:40:08,680 --> 01:40:11,200 Speaker 2: that the dream walking aspect, even though it didn't you know, 1816 01:40:11,280 --> 01:40:13,160 Speaker 2: we got a lot of things right, we got something wrong. 1817 01:40:13,240 --> 01:40:15,200 Speaker 1: We will gage that. We will do the stark, we 1818 01:40:15,240 --> 01:40:17,519 Speaker 1: will do the scorecard of We also don't. 1819 01:40:17,280 --> 01:40:19,240 Speaker 2: Want to We never want to be right every time 1820 01:40:19,280 --> 01:40:21,800 Speaker 2: because then it's not fun, right, It's not fun. But like, 1821 01:40:22,200 --> 01:40:24,120 Speaker 2: one of the things that we were really thinking about 1822 01:40:24,160 --> 01:40:26,519 Speaker 2: was this notion of nightmare. And I still believe, even 1823 01:40:26,520 --> 01:40:28,719 Speaker 2: though Nightmare may have not shown up in the movie, 1824 01:40:29,040 --> 01:40:31,840 Speaker 2: the notion of there being a dream world or a 1825 01:40:32,439 --> 01:40:36,880 Speaker 2: passage between realities via dreams is very nightmarish. Wander could 1826 01:40:36,880 --> 01:40:38,920 Speaker 2: have not just been under the control of the Dark Hold, 1827 01:40:38,960 --> 01:40:42,680 Speaker 2: but also something greater, a puppet master. She's been manipulated 1828 01:40:42,720 --> 01:40:47,559 Speaker 2: before by Mephisto, I know that name, but he was 1829 01:40:47,600 --> 01:40:49,240 Speaker 2: the one doing it, He was the one using the 1830 01:40:49,320 --> 01:40:52,680 Speaker 2: kids against her. So I don't think we've seen the 1831 01:40:52,800 --> 01:40:56,840 Speaker 2: end of this story or Wander's accountability. That she's going 1832 01:40:56,880 --> 01:40:58,040 Speaker 2: to hold herself to for it. 1833 01:40:58,680 --> 01:41:02,760 Speaker 1: And whenever I want a back in the comics, what 1834 01:41:03,040 --> 01:41:07,040 Speaker 1: usually happens, is she just is living like as a 1835 01:41:07,080 --> 01:41:09,599 Speaker 1: normal person somewhere without a lot of memories. I think. 1836 01:41:10,680 --> 01:41:12,519 Speaker 1: I think when she comes back, that's what's gonna happen. 1837 01:41:12,600 --> 01:41:15,799 Speaker 1: She's gonna be just living as a person somewhere, maybe 1838 01:41:15,840 --> 01:41:17,679 Speaker 1: aware of what she's done in the past and feeling 1839 01:41:17,760 --> 01:41:21,040 Speaker 1: very guilty about it. Maybe she's created like a completely 1840 01:41:21,120 --> 01:41:24,400 Speaker 1: new persona and memories about herself. But I think she'll 1841 01:41:24,439 --> 01:41:27,160 Speaker 1: come back and she's going to be underground for a 1842 01:41:27,160 --> 01:41:27,639 Speaker 1: little while. 1843 01:41:27,880 --> 01:41:30,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, maybe she's going to be living with 1844 01:41:30,640 --> 01:41:34,559 Speaker 2: her new husband, Simon Williams or something like that, you know, 1845 01:41:35,080 --> 01:41:36,920 Speaker 2: the man who may be wonder Man. I think there's 1846 01:41:36,960 --> 01:41:39,600 Speaker 2: lots of interesting spaces. 1847 01:41:40,280 --> 01:41:44,400 Speaker 1: Let us go to what we got right and what 1848 01:41:44,439 --> 01:41:47,760 Speaker 1: we got wrong in terms of are theorizing this is 1849 01:41:47,760 --> 01:41:53,400 Speaker 1: gonna be fun. First, the significance of Wanda vision the show, 1850 01:41:53,560 --> 01:41:57,160 Speaker 1: including the Dark Hole and Billy and Tommy crazy. We 1851 01:41:57,240 --> 01:41:59,960 Speaker 1: got it right. Nothing to do with No Way Home, 1852 01:42:00,200 --> 01:42:02,120 Speaker 1: multiverse issues. This was your big one. 1853 01:42:02,360 --> 01:42:04,280 Speaker 2: I had a feeling in my gut that it wasn't 1854 01:42:04,320 --> 01:42:07,519 Speaker 2: gonna happen, and nobody believed me. But we were right. 1855 01:42:07,920 --> 01:42:11,919 Speaker 1: Thing that the Illuminati would only make a brief, albeit 1856 01:42:12,200 --> 01:42:17,439 Speaker 1: crucial appearance. This is less of a prediction, is like 1857 01:42:17,760 --> 01:42:20,720 Speaker 1: fifty percent prediction and fifty percent. This is how movies work. 1858 01:42:21,000 --> 01:42:22,880 Speaker 2: This is like gut check. If you watch a lot 1859 01:42:22,920 --> 01:42:25,040 Speaker 2: of movies and you talk about movies with your friend, 1860 01:42:25,080 --> 01:42:27,880 Speaker 2: you can watch a trailer and be like, this is 1861 01:42:27,880 --> 01:42:28,719 Speaker 2: probably gonna happen. 1862 01:42:28,760 --> 01:42:33,519 Speaker 1: So Wanda's chaos magic connection to Gargantos, and uh, we 1863 01:42:34,080 --> 01:42:36,400 Speaker 1: just didn't guess the part where she created Gargantos to 1864 01:42:36,400 --> 01:42:38,839 Speaker 1: send after America, but we we understood the connection. 1865 01:42:39,280 --> 01:42:41,320 Speaker 2: Very inventive. Michael Wildron, who, by the way, I have 1866 01:42:41,320 --> 01:42:43,080 Speaker 2: to shout because that script was funny as fuck. 1867 01:42:43,400 --> 01:42:46,479 Speaker 1: It was really really fun that we'd see Captain Carter. 1868 01:42:46,760 --> 01:42:49,240 Speaker 1: Now we confirm the trailer, but we predicted that way 1869 01:42:49,240 --> 01:42:52,280 Speaker 1: before that part of the trailer. An appearance of Mount 1870 01:42:52,320 --> 01:42:54,439 Speaker 1: Wondergore take of speak. 1871 01:42:54,280 --> 01:42:58,599 Speaker 2: Of I will say that any time I'm like, it's 1872 01:42:58,640 --> 01:42:59,160 Speaker 2: Mount wonder Go. 1873 01:42:59,320 --> 01:43:03,080 Speaker 3: If wonders that, what did you know? That's my wonder 1874 01:43:03,080 --> 01:43:06,160 Speaker 3: in Pietro. Oh, it first was in thor one thing four, 1875 01:43:06,880 --> 01:43:09,519 Speaker 3: not wonder Go. But this time I was right. So 1876 01:43:09,560 --> 01:43:12,439 Speaker 3: you know, if you mentioned it enough times, the theory 1877 01:43:12,479 --> 01:43:14,840 Speaker 3: will come true. And I was so happy about it. 1878 01:43:15,479 --> 01:43:18,680 Speaker 1: A House of M style payoff for Wanda more than 1879 01:43:18,680 --> 01:43:23,000 Speaker 1: a payoff, Like the entire setup is basically House of 1880 01:43:23,080 --> 01:43:27,400 Speaker 1: Them with some other different things sprinkled in there. But 1881 01:43:27,479 --> 01:43:36,559 Speaker 1: the you know, Wanda being too dangerous, emotionally unhinged and 1882 01:43:37,200 --> 01:43:41,280 Speaker 1: affecting the safety of various realities, that is Yes of M. 1883 01:43:41,360 --> 01:43:43,519 Speaker 2: And you know what else that we that they took 1884 01:43:43,520 --> 01:43:45,320 Speaker 2: from House of M that we kind of didn't even 1885 01:43:45,360 --> 01:43:47,800 Speaker 2: really consider that they would do. The notion that Charles 1886 01:43:47,960 --> 01:43:50,080 Speaker 2: Xavier is involved in the idea that Wanda has to 1887 01:43:50,080 --> 01:43:52,160 Speaker 2: be killed, which is like a bit part of everything 1888 01:43:52,160 --> 01:43:55,880 Speaker 2: that sparks off. So that especially was very House of M. 1889 01:43:56,200 --> 01:43:59,760 Speaker 1: Maria Rambau played by Lashawanna Lynch's Captain Marvel as a captain. 1890 01:44:00,200 --> 01:44:03,680 Speaker 1: They got that. The other with the other possibility was 1891 01:44:03,720 --> 01:44:07,720 Speaker 1: Superior iron Man, which a lot of people liked. We 1892 01:44:07,760 --> 01:44:11,040 Speaker 1: always thought it was Marie Rambo and that Incursions who 1893 01:44:12,320 --> 01:44:16,840 Speaker 1: the very important incursions from the time runs out arc 1894 01:44:16,920 --> 01:44:20,920 Speaker 1: that plays out over Illuminati and New Avengers. 1895 01:44:21,160 --> 01:44:22,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to give Seeing a big shout out 1896 01:44:22,840 --> 01:44:24,640 Speaker 2: because he picked He was like even talking about that 1897 01:44:24,640 --> 01:44:28,439 Speaker 2: as one of his picks. And this was the Hickman 1898 01:44:28,560 --> 01:44:31,880 Speaker 2: New Avengers stuff where they basically introduced the idea of 1899 01:44:31,920 --> 01:44:34,919 Speaker 2: the incursions, which is like, it's essentially like a contraction 1900 01:44:35,040 --> 01:44:37,479 Speaker 2: or a contradiction or a glitch in the timeline. But 1901 01:44:37,720 --> 01:44:41,400 Speaker 2: this is almost certainly going to lead into us getting 1902 01:44:41,400 --> 01:44:45,400 Speaker 2: that Secret Wars show that we've or TV movie whatever 1903 01:44:45,840 --> 01:44:48,320 Speaker 2: that we've long thought about, because the incursions and the 1904 01:44:48,320 --> 01:44:52,960 Speaker 2: idea of galaxies colliding, universe is colliding and exploding, it's 1905 01:44:53,080 --> 01:44:58,520 Speaker 2: all very much seeded in that twenty fifteen Secret Wars 1906 01:44:58,560 --> 01:45:00,639 Speaker 2: by Hickman and Issad. You're back. 1907 01:45:01,720 --> 01:45:04,120 Speaker 1: Here are the ones that we didn't get right. No 1908 01:45:04,320 --> 01:45:08,759 Speaker 1: Nightmare appearance as the villain, although again there were moments 1909 01:45:08,760 --> 01:45:11,120 Speaker 1: where it seemed like it was headed that way. And 1910 01:45:11,200 --> 01:45:15,760 Speaker 1: as you noted, the dream walking, the idea of dreams 1911 01:45:15,840 --> 01:45:21,439 Speaker 1: as this kind of thread through dimensions, this kind of 1912 01:45:21,439 --> 01:45:28,200 Speaker 1: like interdimensional pathway is very much a Nightmare mechanic. That's 1913 01:45:28,200 --> 01:45:32,800 Speaker 1: how Nightmare gets his power. So but we're gonna count 1914 01:45:32,800 --> 01:45:36,519 Speaker 1: it as wrong because we're magnanimous didn't lean into Wanda 1915 01:45:36,560 --> 01:45:39,799 Speaker 1: as a nexus being used dream walking between multiverses. Instead, 1916 01:45:40,240 --> 01:45:42,680 Speaker 1: I will make a further prediction off that even though 1917 01:45:42,680 --> 01:45:44,599 Speaker 1: we got this one wrong, I will say that now 1918 01:45:44,680 --> 01:45:47,240 Speaker 1: with the dark holes all destroyed throughout multiverses, now we 1919 01:45:47,320 --> 01:45:51,639 Speaker 1: may see the MCU lean into Wanda as a nexus being. 1920 01:45:52,200 --> 01:45:55,120 Speaker 2: I think so too also as well, where did the 1921 01:45:55,160 --> 01:45:56,800 Speaker 2: power of the dark carle Go? We just saw it 1922 01:45:56,840 --> 01:45:59,280 Speaker 2: go out into the universe. We know in superhero stuff 1923 01:45:59,280 --> 01:46:01,080 Speaker 2: if a lot of power that goes out the university 1924 01:46:01,120 --> 01:46:04,200 Speaker 2: can have an effect nexus being stire coming. I believe 1925 01:46:04,280 --> 01:46:05,200 Speaker 2: Jason what. 1926 01:46:05,240 --> 01:46:08,120 Speaker 1: If did not play a prominent role, No supreme strange. 1927 01:46:09,120 --> 01:46:10,519 Speaker 1: There's a zombie, but not really. 1928 01:46:10,560 --> 01:46:13,880 Speaker 2: It's necromaty, it's necromancy. It was set dressing. They did 1929 01:46:13,880 --> 01:46:16,240 Speaker 2: a really good job making people who watched what I 1930 01:46:16,439 --> 01:46:18,960 Speaker 2: feel like it was important and it was like it 1931 01:46:19,080 --> 01:46:21,680 Speaker 2: opened people's eyes to the notion of some things. But 1932 01:46:21,720 --> 01:46:23,320 Speaker 2: it was not a keypot. 1933 01:46:24,200 --> 01:46:27,800 Speaker 1: And then finally no Deadpool, no other mutants, and no King, 1934 01:46:29,400 --> 01:46:32,559 Speaker 1: which I found the last one is the one I 1935 01:46:32,600 --> 01:46:36,719 Speaker 1: found particularly interesting, and we've got no hint of King yet. 1936 01:46:37,040 --> 01:46:39,600 Speaker 1: But you would have to assume if Charles Xavier existed 1937 01:46:40,120 --> 01:46:44,400 Speaker 1: in a variant universe of the MCU, that the school 1938 01:46:44,479 --> 01:46:47,320 Speaker 1: that he runs and the team that he also covertly 1939 01:46:47,400 --> 01:46:51,120 Speaker 1: runs must exist as well, and that is terribly exciting. 1940 01:46:51,160 --> 01:46:54,040 Speaker 2: Okay, so look, no Kang, right, They didn't say Kang's name, 1941 01:46:54,120 --> 01:46:58,759 Speaker 2: but I will say in this movie, Read Richards tells 1942 01:46:58,800 --> 01:47:01,559 Speaker 2: Wonda that he has children and a wife, Sue Storm, 1943 01:47:01,640 --> 01:47:04,240 Speaker 2: and he doesn't name them, but Franklin and Valaria. So 1944 01:47:04,680 --> 01:47:07,280 Speaker 2: that leads to the notion that in this universe Kang 1945 01:47:07,280 --> 01:47:09,880 Speaker 2: would essentially at some point exist because he is a 1946 01:47:09,880 --> 01:47:12,840 Speaker 2: descendant of Reed and Reid had children. So it's really 1947 01:47:12,880 --> 01:47:16,840 Speaker 2: interesting and I think my gut says, because we love Kang, 1948 01:47:16,840 --> 01:47:19,160 Speaker 2: we talked about him a lot, love that Johnathan Major's casting. 1949 01:47:19,520 --> 01:47:23,360 Speaker 2: My gut says, with the recent move of moving ant 1950 01:47:23,360 --> 01:47:30,000 Speaker 2: Man and Quantumania before Marvels, I think the Fantastic Four 1951 01:47:30,160 --> 01:47:34,040 Speaker 2: is a big focus, and I think they're essentially saving 1952 01:47:35,040 --> 01:47:38,519 Speaker 2: whatever they're doing with Kang, whatever plan is, whether we 1953 01:47:38,600 --> 01:47:42,599 Speaker 2: meet him as an ally to ant Man and the Wasp, 1954 01:47:42,760 --> 01:47:47,000 Speaker 2: whether he is an antagonist, whether he is Read and 1955 01:47:47,040 --> 01:47:49,839 Speaker 2: do Man. You know Kang and he's all these different versions. 1956 01:47:50,000 --> 01:47:52,160 Speaker 2: I feel like that is going to be the thrust 1957 01:47:52,160 --> 01:47:55,200 Speaker 2: of ant Man Quantumania, and I'll be really surprised if 1958 01:47:55,240 --> 01:47:57,639 Speaker 2: that's not the case, especially after he wasn't in this movie. 1959 01:47:57,680 --> 01:48:01,479 Speaker 2: That would have been so easy to reintroduce him, Rosie. 1960 01:48:01,600 --> 01:48:06,439 Speaker 1: Let's talk about the the untimely rest in peace death 1961 01:48:06,520 --> 01:48:11,360 Speaker 1: of the Illuminati and what specifically that might mean for 1962 01:48:12,840 --> 01:48:16,240 Speaker 1: whether or not we see any of these actors play 1963 01:48:16,320 --> 01:48:21,960 Speaker 1: these characters in the MCU going forward. John Krasinski obviously 1964 01:48:22,000 --> 01:48:26,679 Speaker 1: a huge fan casting My sense, My sense is other 1965 01:48:26,800 --> 01:48:32,840 Speaker 1: than Captain Britain, Captain Carter, we probably won't. This was 1966 01:48:32,880 --> 01:48:36,080 Speaker 1: probably a goodbye. This felt like a goodbye to all 1967 01:48:36,120 --> 01:48:38,919 Speaker 1: these people, like, you're not going to se John Krasinski 1968 01:48:39,000 --> 01:48:41,960 Speaker 1: is read Richards. Yeah, Anson Mount, you gave it a 1969 01:48:42,000 --> 01:48:43,920 Speaker 1: go with bad wigs, but we're not going to see 1970 01:48:43,920 --> 01:48:47,040 Speaker 1: you as black belt going forward. Patrick Sewart has been 1971 01:48:48,200 --> 01:48:51,080 Speaker 1: very outspoken about his desire to not be in the MCU, 1972 01:48:51,120 --> 01:48:52,479 Speaker 1: and he did it for the bag and he was 1973 01:48:52,520 --> 01:48:56,880 Speaker 1: great to him. But he is an older gentleman and 1974 01:48:56,920 --> 01:49:00,840 Speaker 1: I would imagine he's not terror really keen to sign 1975 01:49:00,920 --> 01:49:04,360 Speaker 1: up for like a fifteen movie deal with you see 1976 01:49:04,479 --> 01:49:07,479 Speaker 1: that would include cameos and like various properties. So it 1977 01:49:07,640 --> 01:49:09,320 Speaker 1: sounded like a goodbye. What do you think? 1978 01:49:09,400 --> 01:49:11,519 Speaker 2: No, I totally agree with you. I think that the 1979 01:49:11,520 --> 01:49:16,920 Speaker 2: big potential is Peggy Carter. If we saw if we 1980 01:49:16,920 --> 01:49:18,640 Speaker 2: were going to see someone again. I think that with 1981 01:49:18,720 --> 01:49:22,479 Speaker 2: the Marvels coming up, I think there's a version where 1982 01:49:22,520 --> 01:49:27,160 Speaker 2: we get quick cameo from Maria in a dark in 1983 01:49:27,240 --> 01:49:29,920 Speaker 2: a moment where Monica feels like she can't be Captain 1984 01:49:29,960 --> 01:49:34,000 Speaker 2: Marvel or Pulsar or Photon or whoever they you're spectrum, 1985 01:49:34,040 --> 01:49:36,120 Speaker 2: you know, whichever name they give. I feel like there's 1986 01:49:36,439 --> 01:49:39,680 Speaker 2: maybe a way that we could see her realizing or 1987 01:49:39,880 --> 01:49:44,240 Speaker 2: discovering that inner universe her mum was Captain Marvel. That 1988 01:49:44,400 --> 01:49:47,639 Speaker 2: seems very knowing. I also think it's a really good 1989 01:49:47,800 --> 01:49:52,960 Speaker 2: it's a good course correct because in the Captain Marvel movie, 1990 01:49:53,000 --> 01:49:56,120 Speaker 2: the way that the breelast in Carol Danvers Captain Marvel 1991 01:49:57,040 --> 01:49:59,519 Speaker 2: gets her powers is the origin of Monica Rambo. So 1992 01:49:59,560 --> 01:50:01,640 Speaker 2: it's a good course correct to be like, here is 1993 01:50:01,720 --> 01:50:04,400 Speaker 2: a world where it was Maria, and so that one 1994 01:50:04,479 --> 01:50:06,639 Speaker 2: feels like that's like a ten percent you could get 1995 01:50:06,680 --> 01:50:09,240 Speaker 2: a cameo to me, Peggy, I think is quite likely 1996 01:50:09,840 --> 01:50:13,000 Speaker 2: everyone else dig on this is this is Figy being 1997 01:50:13,120 --> 01:50:18,760 Speaker 2: incredibly magnanimous and saying, look this and you wanted it, 1998 01:50:19,120 --> 01:50:21,559 Speaker 2: you wanted Charles Xavier, but that's not gonna work. Like 1999 01:50:23,160 --> 01:50:25,200 Speaker 2: the question of how to introduce the X Men is 2000 01:50:25,520 --> 01:50:29,639 Speaker 2: the most important and profitable question probably in Disney's history, 2001 01:50:29,680 --> 01:50:32,840 Speaker 2: because if they fumble the bag, they will lose no joke, 2002 01:50:33,120 --> 01:50:36,120 Speaker 2: billions of dollars and they could decimate them. To you, 2003 01:50:36,439 --> 01:50:39,639 Speaker 2: it's it's so important. And that's not going to include 2004 01:50:39,640 --> 01:50:41,439 Speaker 2: Patrick Stewart, but they gave him a great moment here. 2005 01:50:42,320 --> 01:50:44,360 Speaker 2: They also cleared the way for Jean Gray by getting 2006 01:50:44,439 --> 01:50:46,760 Speaker 2: rid of Wonder for a little bit. And to me, 2007 01:50:47,520 --> 01:50:49,840 Speaker 2: I think the Krasinski thing is a really cool bit 2008 01:50:49,880 --> 01:50:53,439 Speaker 2: of stunt casting that recognized as fans who wanted it, 2009 01:50:53,520 --> 01:50:56,000 Speaker 2: and I am a I'm a fantastic four truther. You 2010 01:50:56,040 --> 01:50:57,800 Speaker 2: can ask people who used to work in the comic shop, 2011 01:50:58,080 --> 01:51:01,040 Speaker 2: my poor friend Mikey, who used the hate hearing about 2012 01:51:01,240 --> 01:51:03,400 Speaker 2: I'd be there and I'd be like, oh, the X Men. 2013 01:51:03,600 --> 01:51:03,840 Speaker 1: You know. 2014 01:51:04,280 --> 01:51:06,200 Speaker 2: I thought the Fox deal said that they could never 2015 01:51:06,240 --> 01:51:08,639 Speaker 2: make an X Men TV show, but now they're making Legion, 2016 01:51:08,800 --> 01:51:11,000 Speaker 2: so maybe they made a deal with Marvel so Marvel 2017 01:51:11,040 --> 01:51:13,080 Speaker 2: could get the rights back. I have fan casted that 2018 01:51:13,360 --> 01:51:18,000 Speaker 2: a million times. I have fan casted Keanu Reeves as 2019 01:51:18,000 --> 01:51:21,280 Speaker 2: read Richard's I have fancasted Adam Driver is doctor Doom 2020 01:51:21,360 --> 01:51:23,720 Speaker 2: I have a whole different fan casting with a for 2021 01:51:23,800 --> 01:51:25,600 Speaker 2: a fan fiction that me and my friend wrote, like 2022 01:51:26,000 --> 01:51:29,439 Speaker 2: I care so much about that. And to me, the 2023 01:51:29,520 --> 01:51:33,200 Speaker 2: John Krasinski Emily Blunt one, if that had been ten 2024 01:51:33,320 --> 01:51:36,280 Speaker 2: years ago MCU, that seems like the kind of casting 2025 01:51:36,320 --> 01:51:38,439 Speaker 2: they would have done, but now it seems a little 2026 01:51:38,479 --> 01:51:40,679 Speaker 2: bit safe. So I think this was a really cool 2027 01:51:40,760 --> 01:51:44,000 Speaker 2: nod to say, hey, here he is in that suit, 2028 01:51:44,680 --> 01:51:47,400 Speaker 2: look in a certain way. Now, don't be crying when 2029 01:51:47,439 --> 01:51:51,439 Speaker 2: it's Ral Kooley who plays or Jonathan Major is playing 2030 01:51:51,479 --> 01:51:54,280 Speaker 2: every character you know. And so I think that's a 2031 01:51:55,520 --> 01:51:58,519 Speaker 2: to me, that's a that's a really cool bit of 2032 01:51:58,640 --> 01:52:02,680 Speaker 2: fan service that's really thoughtful and was also done in 2033 01:52:02,720 --> 01:52:05,479 Speaker 2: a really funny way. And I think, like Krasinski, I 2034 01:52:05,560 --> 01:52:07,880 Speaker 2: just give him so much props. He was great for 2035 01:52:07,960 --> 01:52:10,120 Speaker 2: being like, yeah, I'll come and be read Richards and 2036 01:52:10,160 --> 01:52:12,640 Speaker 2: then get turned into spaghetti. Like I think that you 2037 01:52:12,760 --> 01:52:14,280 Speaker 2: got to have like a lot, You've got to be 2038 01:52:14,360 --> 01:52:16,040 Speaker 2: really willing to have a lot of fun with that. 2039 01:52:16,080 --> 01:52:18,880 Speaker 2: So I think the Illuminati is the the r I 2040 01:52:18,960 --> 01:52:19,960 Speaker 2: p I Lumini. 2041 01:52:20,680 --> 01:52:25,599 Speaker 1: The caveat I will give is the sense I I 2042 01:52:25,680 --> 01:52:31,760 Speaker 1: came away from this movie kind of feeling more so 2043 01:52:31,920 --> 01:52:37,320 Speaker 1: than before that. Oh, the recent news that that Figy 2044 01:52:37,960 --> 01:52:40,800 Speaker 1: announced that they're going to be going into the a 2045 01:52:40,880 --> 01:52:43,559 Speaker 1: retreat to that in it. That's why I didn't that's 2046 01:52:44,280 --> 01:52:47,080 Speaker 1: in it. That that is actually vital because the sense 2047 01:52:47,120 --> 01:52:51,639 Speaker 1: I got coming away from this movie is that they 2048 01:52:51,760 --> 01:52:54,040 Speaker 1: kind of don't know how they're going to bring in 2049 01:52:54,160 --> 01:52:56,679 Speaker 1: d M C in the X Men and the MCU 2050 01:52:56,760 --> 01:52:59,200 Speaker 1: and the Fantastic Four, And obviously, as you said, those 2051 01:52:59,240 --> 01:53:00,639 Speaker 1: are gonna be a big deal, like those are gonna 2052 01:53:00,640 --> 01:53:03,080 Speaker 1: be the things that extend the life of the MCU 2053 01:53:03,320 --> 01:53:07,439 Speaker 1: for a decade plus exactly. X X X fans, Fantastic 2054 01:53:07,479 --> 01:53:08,680 Speaker 1: Four fans have been waiting for. 2055 01:53:08,760 --> 01:53:12,360 Speaker 2: This, so it's gonna all stop being. My guess is, well, 2056 01:53:12,479 --> 01:53:14,559 Speaker 2: instead of phases, when the X Men come in, we'll 2057 01:53:14,560 --> 01:53:16,240 Speaker 2: start having ages and. 2058 01:53:16,360 --> 01:53:21,559 Speaker 1: My and my sense is also that obviously they could 2059 01:53:21,600 --> 01:53:26,200 Speaker 1: bring them in through alternative mensions, but I think you know, 2060 01:53:26,280 --> 01:53:28,800 Speaker 1: with the Fantastic Four, you need that origin. You have 2061 01:53:28,840 --> 01:53:30,760 Speaker 1: to understand where they come from as a family. I 2062 01:53:30,800 --> 01:53:32,880 Speaker 1: feel like you'd need to see them get their powers. 2063 01:53:32,880 --> 01:53:35,720 Speaker 1: You would need to boot it up again, and then 2064 01:53:35,960 --> 01:53:38,760 Speaker 1: similar with the X Men, we need to lay the 2065 01:53:38,840 --> 01:53:42,360 Speaker 1: groundwork of a world in which people are scared of 2066 01:53:42,960 --> 01:53:46,080 Speaker 1: people with powers and by extension, mutants when they appear 2067 01:53:46,160 --> 01:53:49,800 Speaker 1: that they are fearful of them, and they want them controlled, 2068 01:53:50,840 --> 01:53:56,160 Speaker 1: pushed away, pushed to the margins, the killed. Maybe you know, 2069 01:53:56,280 --> 01:53:57,920 Speaker 1: like that they'd be okay with that. That there's a 2070 01:53:58,000 --> 01:54:02,360 Speaker 1: level of general and even hatred in the world for 2071 01:54:02,479 --> 01:54:05,439 Speaker 1: powered people, and I think that will take some setup. 2072 01:54:06,000 --> 01:54:09,240 Speaker 1: So I came away from this feeling that while the 2073 01:54:09,280 --> 01:54:14,320 Speaker 1: multiverse is an incredible tool, I actually feel like it's 2074 01:54:14,400 --> 01:54:17,559 Speaker 1: not the best one to bring in the Fantastic wo 2075 01:54:17,800 --> 01:54:18,479 Speaker 1: or the X Men. 2076 01:54:18,600 --> 01:54:20,080 Speaker 2: I think it's going to be more of a case 2077 01:54:20,200 --> 01:54:22,559 Speaker 2: of the Multiverse is going to be about this kind 2078 01:54:22,560 --> 01:54:28,719 Speaker 2: of battle World Secret Wars esque implosion of a cosmic scale, 2079 01:54:28,800 --> 01:54:31,560 Speaker 2: you know, clear and Doctor Strange jumping around the multiverse 2080 01:54:31,640 --> 01:54:34,000 Speaker 2: like doing cool cosmic stuff. But I think you're right, 2081 01:54:34,280 --> 01:54:38,240 Speaker 2: Fantastic four, it is narratively easy because it is one. 2082 01:54:38,080 --> 01:54:41,200 Speaker 1: Accident, and I think that very straightforward. 2083 01:54:41,320 --> 01:54:43,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, from the recent news of the director departing because 2084 01:54:43,920 --> 01:54:45,720 Speaker 2: he wanted a bit of a break, I think that 2085 01:54:45,960 --> 01:54:49,560 Speaker 2: and the moving of ant Man forward, I think that 2086 01:54:49,720 --> 01:54:52,680 Speaker 2: the Fantastic four will likely be the first one, because 2087 01:54:52,720 --> 01:54:55,560 Speaker 2: I think it is easier to establish and MCU as 2088 01:54:55,560 --> 01:54:57,960 Speaker 2: we know it, whereas, like you said, there's going to 2089 01:54:58,000 --> 01:54:59,840 Speaker 2: be some there's going to have to be some gro 2090 01:55:00,200 --> 01:55:04,480 Speaker 2: breaking kind of shifts in the politics and the landscape 2091 01:55:04,520 --> 01:55:11,959 Speaker 2: of the MCU to make mutants as oppressed class feel authentic. 2092 01:55:12,480 --> 01:55:16,840 Speaker 1: Well, it was a super exciting fun time at the theater. Man, 2093 01:55:16,880 --> 01:55:17,600 Speaker 1: I had a great time. 2094 01:55:17,880 --> 01:55:19,120 Speaker 2: It was such fun. 2095 01:55:19,600 --> 01:55:20,880 Speaker 1: It was super super fun. 2096 01:55:21,240 --> 01:55:22,680 Speaker 2: You went to the premier.
