Speaker 1: On today's episode, we're talking about Batman Part two, Matt Reeves,
Speaker 1: We're talking about some trailers. We're talking about Marvel coming
Speaker 1: to LA, all that and more.
Speaker 2: It's news.
Speaker 3: Hello.
Speaker 1: My name is Jason Sepsio hen I'm Rosey Night, and
Speaker 1: welcome back to Expert Vision of the podcast. Will we
Speaker 1: dive deep into your favorite shows, movies, comics and pop culture.
Speaker 1: Coming to you from I Heart. We're bringing you three
Speaker 1: episodes a week, plus news on Saturday.
Speaker 4: In today's previously on episode, we made it Congrats for
Speaker 4: another week.
Speaker 3: We are catching up on the biggest geek news of that.
Speaker 4: Very week, including oh my god, this one was setting
Speaker 4: the comic industry group chats on fire. Baby Marvel Comics
Speaker 4: heads to LA after eight years in New York City.
Speaker 3: They are moving and.
Speaker 4: Big o ohs for Netflix and a really fun piece
Speaker 4: that came out fun for those of us who like mess.
Speaker 5: But first trailers trailer news.
Speaker 1: First of all, Camp Crystal Lake. Trailer for Camp Crystal
Speaker 1: Lake has dropped. I did not even know this was
Speaker 1: coming out. It is an a twenty four Peacock co
Speaker 1: production Crazy that you did Friday Friday the thirteenth prequel. Yes,
Speaker 1: that will debut October fifteenth, twenty twenty six, just in
Speaker 1: time for Scary Season on Peacock. Eight episodes set in
Speaker 1: the nineteen seventies, with Linda Carnalini as the original Jason
Speaker 1: Varhi's Pamela War He's the original spoiler, the original killer
Speaker 1: of the first Friday the Thirteenth, and the trailer is
Speaker 1: quite fun.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I'm into Jason.
Speaker 4: The reason you might not have heard of this when
Speaker 4: I said crazy you hadn't heard of It wasn't about you.
Speaker 4: It's the fact that A twenty four has a Friday
Speaker 4: the Thirteenth official project, something we haven't had for a
Speaker 4: long time, and you don't know about it now. This
Speaker 4: was originally announced a few years ago, during the time
Speaker 4: when it was still unclear what the rights to the
Speaker 4: original Friday the Thirteenth movie were, but those have since
Speaker 4: been worked out, so we had This was originally a
Speaker 4: Brian Fuller, who made Hannibal Pushing Daisies a twenty four project.
Speaker 4: Brian left during creative differences, not a shock if you
Speaker 4: look at the other projects he's worked on, and it
Speaker 4: ended up continuing.
Speaker 3: On A twenty four and Peacock.
Speaker 4: I'm very interested in this I love the Friday the
Speaker 4: Thirteenth movies. They're completely ridiculous. They're completely like tropy slashers.
Speaker 3: So I think the.
Speaker 4: Idea of trying to do like elevated Friday the Thirteenth
Speaker 4: is kind of hilarious. I love the Linda Cardinelli Cardlini
Speaker 4: Kent casting though, because the real truth is, if you
Speaker 4: actually watch Friday the Thirteenth, it is I'm not saying
Speaker 4: that you should kill teenagers, but I am saying that
Speaker 4: they killed this woman's son because they were fucking and
Speaker 4: he was disabled six year old, So I'm on her side.
Speaker 4: I think they know what people want. Me and my
Speaker 4: friend Josh Kagan, just a great guy, a film guy, too,
Speaker 4: awesome mutual aid worker. We were basically talking about like
Speaker 4: we're gonna make a bingo card of all the weird
Speaker 4: tropes because there's ten of these fucking movies guys like
Speaker 4: the Easter Eggs are.
Speaker 3: Gonna be crazy.
Speaker 4: And we even get a line here where this is
Speaker 4: how you know they know what the people want, where
Speaker 4: Linda says Mummy's here, so you know, like they know
Speaker 4: what the show is, they know it's gonna be camp.
Speaker 4: It's also really interestingly all gonna drop on the fifteenth,
Speaker 4: So I think that's actually a smart move because if
Speaker 4: it hits, then that could be your big Holly, your
Speaker 4: big Halloween release for both of them.
Speaker 3: So I'm really excited to see.
Speaker 4: I think it's gonna start with Jason's death and then
Speaker 4: basically be about her kind of unraveling.
Speaker 3: So who knows.
Speaker 4: The Psycho spin off show Baits Motel with Via Farmigo
Speaker 4: as the mother of Norman Baits is legitimately one of
Speaker 4: the best horror TV shows we ever got, and it
Speaker 4: ran for like four.
Speaker 3: Seasons, So maybe this is gonna be really good. But
Speaker 3: the trailer looks fun like it's gonna be for Halloween.
Speaker 4: And yeah, if you're if you're an industry person us
Speaker 4: getting a new official fighter that that team project is
Speaker 4: crazy because the legalities around that have been a mess
Speaker 4: for years.
Speaker 1: Up next, Digger, the new project from Tom Cruise and
Speaker 1: Alejandro in a Rito, has dropped. It is a satirical
Speaker 1: black comedy in which Cruz plays Digger Rockwell, and aging
Speaker 1: energy tycoon who accidentally triggers a natural disaster apocalypse and
Speaker 1: scrambles then to prove that he's humanity savior. Here's it
Speaker 1: also stars Jesse Plemmon, Sandra Huller, Rizamed, Emma Darcy John
Speaker 1: Goodman comes out October second. The trailer is quite interesting
Speaker 1: and fun. I don't quite what to make of it.
Speaker 3: I will be watching it.
Speaker 5: I will say this, it looks.
Speaker 1: Like for any of us who have shot video, it
Speaker 1: weirdly looks like raw log footage, like the way that
Speaker 1: your video looks when you when it just comes out
Speaker 1: of camera and does nothing.
Speaker 3: To have color.
Speaker 5: Yes, you don't color, so I I.
Speaker 1: Don't understand why they're doing that, but it's it's quite
Speaker 1: a look.
Speaker 4: I'm interested. It is to me very Bong jun'ho doing
Speaker 4: English language. It looks very much like Mickey thirteen. It
Speaker 4: looks like Okja. It has a similar aesthetic. They're clearly
Speaker 4: going for a climate change movie here, which I think
Speaker 4: is really interesting. Interatu is one of my favorite directors
Speaker 4: when I was younger, like a big big deal for me,
Speaker 4: as like somebody getting.
Speaker 3: Into art house cinema.
Speaker 4: I'm interested. This is a Tom Cruise inm prosthetics role.
Speaker 4: You know, it's him doing his kind of the very viral.
Speaker 5: And you're using dark to make them old.
Speaker 4: Yeah, because he even ironically you know, that's what happens
Speaker 4: when he pledged your life to Zeno like you look
Speaker 4: in Young Baby. But they launched this with a huge
Speaker 4: screening at Warner Brothers. They clearly are betting on this
Speaker 4: as another one of their kind of auta hits, which
Speaker 4: I love. How much Warner Brother's going in for that.
Speaker 4: The trailer itself, I'm intrigued yet questioning. I would say
Speaker 4: I have had many conversations with other people about how
Speaker 4: the footage looks too, but I like that they're doing
Speaker 4: something different. I like it starting conversations, and we need
Speaker 4: more movies about how climate change is bad and people
Speaker 4: who take from the earth are bad. So I'm interested
Speaker 4: to see where it goes.
Speaker 1: And finally, we have a trailer for the new Paul
Speaker 1: Greengrass film The Uprising, which is based on the thirteenth
Speaker 1: century peasant revolt in England, in which wat Tyler and
Speaker 1: a bunch of peasants said we're not paying taxes anymore
Speaker 1: of the kings being a piece of shit. They rampage
Speaker 1: across the countryside for a number of weeks until I
Speaker 1: mean spoiler for historical events. They then agree to meet
Speaker 1: the king to talk about stopping it, and the King's
Speaker 1: guys like assassinate the leaders.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so very famous situation in England.
Speaker 4: In those spaces, there's still not been thought about a precursion.
Speaker 1: Many historians think to the event to the kind of
Speaker 1: historical events that led to the French Revolution. Anyway, if
Speaker 1: you love landlords and the rich getting decapitated by like
Speaker 1: hose and farm implements, hose being like a farm implement, yeah,
Speaker 1: not not sex workers, then this movie.
Speaker 2: Is for you.
Speaker 4: I gotta say, looks great. I was not expecting this.
Speaker 4: Stars Andrew Garfield. We know he's amazing, so very excited
Speaker 4: to see him, and I feel like we're going to
Speaker 4: be getting a series of prestige period pieces and this
Speaker 4: just feels to me like if it hits, it's going
Speaker 4: to continue that trend.
Speaker 3: I feel like, even though Dune.
Speaker 4: And obviously the odyesty on more genre spaces, I do
Speaker 4: feel like post Oppenheimer, there is this kind of hunger
Speaker 4: for historical fiction, especially if.
Speaker 3: It has, you know, an angle to it.
Speaker 4: This kind of feels like the opposite of that recent
Speaker 4: flop Death of Robin Hood movie. So yeah, I was
Speaker 4: I didn't know this was coming out, and I'm I'm
Speaker 4: excited to see people get their heads chopped off with
Speaker 4: gardening implements.
Speaker 1: Up next, we're going to We're going to La Baby.
Speaker 1: Marvel Comics is leaving New York after seventy years being
Speaker 1: based in ninety.
Speaker 3: It is actually like closer to ninety now.
Speaker 1: It's just so I know, do yeah, Like if you
Speaker 1: take timely and all of that stuff into it, right,
Speaker 1: and you know, certainly the city that is the basis
Speaker 1: for most of the storylines that occur within that's the
Speaker 1: craziest within Marvel. But you kind of figure it had
Speaker 1: to happen. DC made the move almost ten I want
Speaker 1: to say it was ten years ago.
Speaker 4: It was like, so it was it was I think
Speaker 4: it was in like the early twenty tens.
Speaker 3: Yeah, say yeah.
Speaker 1: So the comics franchise and publishing division are relocating. About
Speaker 1: one hundred staffers have to decide whether they're gonna make
Speaker 1: the cross country move. And there has been a uh
Speaker 1: a leadership change at the top.
Speaker 3: All right, de lay it on this one.
Speaker 1: So Stephen Whacker, a respected veteran comics editor who also
Speaker 1: is an Emmy Award winner for various pason to animation,
Speaker 1: is taking the place of outgoing chief C. B. Sebolski,
Speaker 1: one of the great Asians.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, well he is moving to Japan to spahead.
Speaker 5: What a perfect.
Speaker 1: Do we need to explain this?
Speaker 4: Just look it up, you just look at just fucking
Speaker 4: look it up and just Google and look up. But Jason,
Speaker 4: I do want to focus Stephen Wacka. Let's talk a
Speaker 4: little bit about that, because that is actually exciting. Look,
Speaker 4: I do wish Marvel had hired anyone who wasn't another
Speaker 4: white guy. But Stephen Whacka did oversee some of the
Speaker 4: comics that we love, the dead evil stuff from the
Speaker 4: early twenty tens, Miss Marvel, the Captain Marvel reboot.
Speaker 3: Them the all new, all different era.
Speaker 4: I mean, people were sharing cover comparisons from comics from
Speaker 4: the twenty tens when Stephen wacker was was editing, and
Speaker 4: comics from CB's era now and pretty much all the
Speaker 4: comics now are sexy boob j Scott Campbell's style covers,
Speaker 4: which have their place. But back in the twenty tens,
Speaker 4: there was a variety. It was all different kinds of
Speaker 4: art styles. It was all different kinds of versions of
Speaker 4: what's sexy Who's on the front cover? And I do
Speaker 4: think that I would hope this is a transitional phase
Speaker 4: for Marvel, but they need someone to come back in
Speaker 4: and sort shit out because comics wise, it has not
Speaker 4: been popping off there, so I think this is very important.
Speaker 4: I also think that one of the sad things that
Speaker 4: we're losing here is an official Marvel office. Marvel's Manhattan
Speaker 4: office is a real office just for Marvel, you know,
Speaker 4: that's where it is. They will be moving into the
Speaker 4: Marvel's Studios Burbank HQ, which will essentially be like where
Speaker 4: DC recently located to the Warner Brothers lot, from being
Speaker 4: on their own office. So you know, I'm going to
Speaker 4: miss the days of the dream of going to the
Speaker 4: Marvel bullpen in New York. But honestly, I think this
Speaker 4: is a too little, too late move. I'm shocked they
Speaker 4: didn't do it earlier. They should have done this at
Speaker 4: the peak of the MCU if they were going to
Speaker 4: do it, I think this is giving a consolidation sadly.
Speaker 4: That's that's the feeling I'm getting, which I don't love.
Speaker 1: I agree with you. Next up, the triumphant return of
Speaker 1: Marvel to hall h Fat. The Marvel is back slated
Speaker 1: to return to hall Ah July twenty fifth for this
Speaker 1: year's San Diego Comic Con. The last time they were
Speaker 1: there was for the RDJ reveal.
Speaker 3: Man it was two years ago.
Speaker 1: I mean in the room it was like a big
Speaker 1: popside the room, it was like, is this is kind
Speaker 1: of weird?
Speaker 5: Howtide that room?
Speaker 3: We were like, what's going on? That was our biggest question.
Speaker 2: So obviously.
Speaker 5: We expect some They.
Speaker 3: Got a trailer, Jason, there's guy trailing.
Speaker 1: But there will also be panels about X Men ninety seven,
Speaker 1: about the Wolverine, upcoming Wolverine video game. So I guess
Speaker 1: Marvel's going big. They're good. There's got to be a
Speaker 1: doomsday trailer, right, There's got.
Speaker 3: To be a doomsday trailer.
Speaker 4: I think that unfortunately, the days of the giant slates
Speaker 4: that we love to look forward to are over.
Speaker 3: I don't think that that's gonna happen.
Speaker 4: I think doomsday trailer is a must, but it's not
Speaker 4: big enough for it to be their main thing. Wolverine
Speaker 4: trailer for the game is going to be huge. I mean,
Speaker 4: the Wolverine trailer is already incredible. I really think they
Speaker 4: have to pull out at least an X Men logo.
Speaker 4: They got to do something about whatever the next phase
Speaker 4: is gonna be. Because post Doomsday, we know that there's
Speaker 4: gonna be secret we know that there's gonna be secret wars,
Speaker 4: but like, do people care?
Speaker 3: Do they know what that is? You've got to start
Speaker 3: teasing the other stuff. I do that. So let's think
Speaker 3: about this.
Speaker 4: I do believe that the year that Doomsday Robert Danny
Speaker 4: Junior Doom was announced, they had either had the Fantastic
Speaker 4: Four on stage or it was as similar. At some
Speaker 4: point they bought the Fantastic Four on stage to announce them,
Speaker 4: whatever year that was. I wonder if that is what
Speaker 4: they will do here now. We had not gotten to
Speaker 4: talk about this because when it broke, but there had
Speaker 4: been rumors that they'd cast Adam Drivers Magneto, right, that
Speaker 4: was like a big rumor. It seems now that that
Speaker 4: has shifted to him being cast as mister Sinister, which
Speaker 4: I far prefer. I think them pulling out Adam Driver
Speaker 4: in a mister Sinister style coat. That could be a
Speaker 4: whole h breaking news moment that they haven't had since Doomsday.
Speaker 3: What's your biggest prediction for.
Speaker 4: What would get people excited and make them not feel
Speaker 4: like this is another flop?
Speaker 3: Do you think it has to be a full X
Speaker 3: Men cast, Like, how big do they have to cast?
Speaker 2: Would be massive.
Speaker 1: I mean there's a lot of x me, there's a
Speaker 1: lot of Adam Driver as somebody Magneto sinister.
Speaker 3: Yeah, who is it?
Speaker 1: So if they I think it's got to be like
Speaker 1: a full X Men cast and yeah here's who you're
Speaker 1: looking forward to for the X Men movie that drops
Speaker 1: after Doomsday. I think that would get people going fucking crazy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree, it's got to be big.
Speaker 1: Let's take a quick break.
Speaker 5: We were it back after this, and we're back.
Speaker 4: Okay, guys, I got some very dramatic industry mess for
Speaker 4: you here. Netflix quarter two twenty twenty six earnings shares
Speaker 4: fall after a mixed report.
Speaker 3: Baby yep.
Speaker 4: Netflix reported on Thursday, July sixteenth, a revenue of twelve
Speaker 4: point five six billion. I mean, let's be real, it
Speaker 4: doesn't sound too bad to me, but it's a twelve
Speaker 4: that's below the twelve point five eight billion consensus they
Speaker 4: were hoping, and the shares immediately dropped. There was a
Speaker 4: week Q three guidance, Netflix projected a revenue growth of
Speaker 4: eleven point seven versus the thirteen percent that Wall Street
Speaker 4: wanted and basically all of that business stuff is really
Speaker 4: bad for people who have investment and who buy Netflix shares.
Speaker 3: We don't have that right, Why do we care about it? Well,
Speaker 3: this is actually about.
Speaker 4: The drop that came alongside kind of the issues that
Speaker 4: they're having with people staying watching the show.
Speaker 3: Do people log back in for season two? They're losing
Speaker 3: ground to short form YouTube TikTok.
Speaker 4: I mean, even Deadline's own reporting has extensively talked about
Speaker 4: the issue with second seasons, though I would say personally,
Speaker 4: Netflix also has an issue with not promoting second seasons.
Speaker 4: We've seen that with shows like Shadow and Bone. We
Speaker 4: have seen that with more recently, you know, popular shows
Speaker 4: like Devil May Cry.
Speaker 3: You know. So it's an.
Speaker 4: Interesting issue, but it seems like we could be at
Speaker 4: a stage now where Netflix is going to have to
Speaker 4: start looking towards a more linear TV model aka replicating
Speaker 4: class TV.
Speaker 3: Isn't that what they always do? So, yes, the cycle.
Speaker 4: Continues, guys, but it's not going great for Netflix right now. Finally,
Speaker 4: big news for Battinson fans like myself, We do get
Speaker 4: some good news. A momentary glimpse at the new costume,
Speaker 4: which looks like it has some kind of hard high
Speaker 4: leather collar, I mean leather Daddy Batman, I would be
Speaker 4: into it. It's a test, a camera test clip. You
Speaker 4: can kind of see the cow and love the snow baby,
Speaker 4: so we're leaning into that Christmas now. Unfortunately, this is
Speaker 4: coming with some bad news for those of us who
Speaker 4: are in a rush to see a new.
Speaker 3: Matt Reus Batman movie. This is the fourth delay in
Speaker 3: three years.
Speaker 4: We have been pushed from October first, twenty twenty seven
Speaker 4: to February eighteenth, twenty twenty eight. But I do want
Speaker 4: to say I personally also think this is giving. Let's
Speaker 4: see if the gun a verse works and maybe afterwards
Speaker 4: we'll see if there's a little more space to focus
Speaker 4: on Matt Reeves just the theory, just to rumor, guys,
Speaker 4: But that's how I'm feeling about it, And yeah, I
Speaker 4: can't wait to see it.
Speaker 3: You know, I'm a big fan.
Speaker 4: So if you haven't rewatched The Batman recently, go and
Speaker 4: rewatch it.
Speaker 3: It's really good.
Speaker 4: And if you don't love it, then that's okay. Just
Speaker 4: watch your own favorite version of the Batman. On next
Speaker 4: week's episodes of X Ray Vision, we are diving into
