11
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:48,920
Speaker 3: she said that she was going to retire and guess

12
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:52,560
Speaker 3: what's happening. Kathleen Kennedy is leaving Lucasfilm. We got news

13
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 3: on the legacy of that role. We also have news

14
00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,440
Speaker 3: about kratoscasting in God of War. It's started a few

15
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 3: conversations in the gaming community. Let's say that and then

16
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:05,039
Speaker 3: let's get to those headlines.

17
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 1: First up, God of War on Amazon Prime has its Kratos.

18
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:15,639
Speaker 1: Ryan Hurst Crazy has been cast. He was the voice

19
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:20,479
Speaker 1: of Thor in God of War Ragnark wonderful, a wonderful

20
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:24,279
Speaker 1: role in that particular video game. And he is also

21
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: a cast member of Christopher Nolans The Odyssey and he

22
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 1: thoughts on Ryan Hursts as Kratos.

23
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:37,679
Speaker 3: Interestingly, biggest upset I saw her was just people saying

24
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 3: like they really wanted him to get to play Thor,

25
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,319
Speaker 3: you know, because of what an iconic role that was,

26
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 3: so people were kind of hoping to see him play that.

27
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 2: In the series. He's best known probably for being Opie.

28
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 2: Is he big enough?

29
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 3: Is he big enough? That's been another question. Now I

30
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 3: would say this is a great reason to get big Also,

31
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 3: funny Ryan Hurst half nepo baby. Could you call somebody

32
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 3: who was the son of Cletus on The Jukes of

33
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 3: Hazard a Nepo baby? I don't know, but it's for

34
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,920
Speaker 3: a funny fact. He's he's forty nine too, so I

35
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 3: think this tells us that we're gonna get some kind of.

36
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 2: Dad Cratos vibes. I mean, I'm just I love these

37
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:17,640
Speaker 2: games so much.

38
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 3: I think it's gonna be very hard to adapt, but

39
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 3: I'm glad somewhere with as much money as Amazon is

40
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 3: adapting it. So this leaves me neutral on the feeling

41
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 3: of the show, but I'm interested to see where it

42
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:26,920
Speaker 3: goes next.

43
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 1: And whatever the case, they can do the digital abs right,

44
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 1: they can just like put the with the plastic ab

45
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 1: piece like over the over the shoulder gauntlet.

46
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 3: Okay, wait wait wait, yes, Aboo wants to know what

47
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 3: is there to adapt about these games?

48
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 2: And I love this question.

49
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 3: If it's already a narrative game, what obviously apart from

50
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 3: just like making money, Jason, what is your pitch to me?

51
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 3: I mean, like, like, do you see it like Fallout

52
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 3: where you're kind of expanding and telling new stories like Aboos,

53
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:56,919
Speaker 3: like the game is already there, Yeah, but you can

54
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 3: I understand that.

55
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:00,640
Speaker 1: I can't just take the game script and then like

56
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,640
Speaker 1: copy paste and then put it like you Actually, somebody

57
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 1: has to do any everything, and there's you can't rely

58
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:12,399
Speaker 1: on twenty minute boss fights to like carry the story

59
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:14,640
Speaker 1: of an episode. It's gonna have to be something else, right,

60
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 1: So there's gonna have to be writing around it. The

61
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 1: fights are surely going to be incredible, but creatures have

62
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 1: The creatures are going to be incredible, but it's not

63
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:26,639
Speaker 1: gonna be the whole thing. And you know, I would

64
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 1: expect that, I guess it depends. I would expect the

65
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 1: actual relationships Creatos and his sons, dead wife. I would

66
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 1: expect all that stuff to be significantly fleshed out where

67
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: you know in the video game, it's delivered linearly in

68
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 1: these kind of moments as you're walking to and from

69
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 1: missions and these cutscenes. That stuff is going to be

70
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 1: made much more IMMERSI and organic.

71
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm really excited.

72
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 3: I've been playing these games since they came out. It's

73
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 3: one of the few Triple A game series I always play. Yeah,

74
00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 3: I'm interested to see where it goes. And Prime is

75
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 3: apparently just like banging out the news. This week, it's

76
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 3: been a big Prime news week.

77
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 1: Up next Prime Video in signs further signs of our

78
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 1: looming Dysobia Green Lights. Fallout Shelter a reality show based

79
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:22,599
Speaker 1: on the Fallout Shelter, the wonderful and addictive Fallout Shelter

80
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 1: mobile game. A friend of mine recently saw a casting.

81
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 2: Notus for this.

82
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,000
Speaker 1: Here is the log line of the show, ten parts

83
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 1: series based on Fallout Shelter.

84
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:34,440
Speaker 2: Quote.

85
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 1: A group of contestants take part in escalating challenges, strategic dilemmas,

86
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 1: and moral crossroads as they chase a cash prize, which

87
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 1: is just like what Fallout Shelter is about a cash prize.

88
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 3: I know, I'm worried, Jason, because how far away are

89
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,799
Speaker 3: we from these moral crossroads just becoming like killing someone

90
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,479
Speaker 3: live on TV. We know the Mister Beast show had

91
00:04:56,680 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 3: so many bad issues behind the scenes, know that the

92
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,200
Speaker 3: Squid Game reality show ended up being really popular, even

93
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,240
Speaker 3: though that in itself is so fucking bleak and dystopian.

94
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 3: This feels like another step towards us getting to basically

95
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 3: like a modern version of like Faces of Death. And

96
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 3: they're just gonna be showing it like Running Man on TV.

97
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:17,719
Speaker 3: Like how many of these are they gonna make? It's crazy?

98
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 1: Next up, The Pit Season two premiere hits five point

99
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 1: four million viewers in three days. This is up two

100
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:25,919
Speaker 1: hundred percent.

101
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 3: Uh.

102
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 1: This from Variety came out of the show. Second season

103
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,600
Speaker 1: came out on January eighth. In the opening episode hit

104
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 1: five point four million viewers over three days. How exactly

105
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 1: do we measure this? Where are these metrics coming from?

106
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 1: That's always a huge question we don't actually know, but

107
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:50,160
Speaker 1: huge number and certainly the kind of like anecdotal discussions online. Uh,

108
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 1: and just conversations I'm having with my friend kind of

109
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 1: backup that this is a monster show. Although I will

110
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,839
Speaker 1: be honest with you, way too stressful for me currently.

111
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:03,360
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, Jason, the stress t TV era

112
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 1: might be over. If you are living somewhere like LA

113
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 1: or Minnesota, or anywhere in the world where you are

114
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,039
Speaker 1: paying attention to things, you may not be able to

115
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 1: enjoy this show. I am interested to see how big

116
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 1: the second episode hits, because literally everyone.

117
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,479
Speaker 2: I know is like, Wow, I love that show.

118
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,440
Speaker 3: It's so well made, And I fucking wish I didn't

119
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 3: watch that first episode because it's too stressful, and that

120
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:25,360
Speaker 3: is where I am at right now.

121
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,039
Speaker 1: And the other thing is like I'm watching It's like

122
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 1: I'm watching them twist along in the open like chest

123
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,720
Speaker 1: of a patient, and I'm horrifying on two levels. One

124
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 1: It's gory and stressful and disgusting, and secondarily, I'm thinking

125
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:40,920
Speaker 1: that guy is now bankrupt, that guy and now will lose.

126
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 2: Yes, exactly that that's the worst thing.

127
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 3: You can't stop thinking about the reality. Very depressing, but

128
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,480
Speaker 3: I mean, we know it's a monster show. One five Emmys,

129
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 3: including Best Drama Series Best Lead Act for Noah Wiley got.

130
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 2: The same awards at the Golden Globes. It's on a tear.

131
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,839
Speaker 3: It's gonna keep being big, but yes, I will stick

132
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 3: to my cozy tool boy who likes to eat pastries.

133
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 2: So dunk the toll for now. That's more my speed.

134
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 1: Up next And we were right news, Oh shit, right

135
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 1: right about industry. Lucasfilm leader Kathleen Kennedy is stepping down

136
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 1: and she is being replaced by Dave Filoni on the

137
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 1: creative side and lynn Wyn Brennan on the business side.

138
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 1: And these are your new Star Wars bosses.

139
00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 2: Folks.

140
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 1: We predicted this in our Stockwatch episode.

141
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 2: Liter came out yesterday. We were right, we were right.

142
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 2: Thoughts about this.

143
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 3: I think you know we talked about it on the

144
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 3: Stockwatch episode. Go listen to it, Go get your news

145
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 3: two days before it happens. That's basically what happens on

146
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 3: X ray Vision apparently in twenty twenty six. I'm happy

147
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:49,600
Speaker 3: for Kathleen. She's one of the greatest producers of all times.

148
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 3: She's made her hits. Let her be free, let her

149
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 3: live away from the Internet, Charles, Dave Filoni knows what

150
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 3: he's doing. Story Wise, we want more rebels, we want

151
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,280
Speaker 3: more character focus stories that can expand the universe. Lenw

152
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:01,640
Speaker 3: and Brennan, let's have a business person in that. I'm

153
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 3: glad they chose another woman. I'm glad they didn't just

154
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 3: completely replace Kennedy without any acknowledgment of the fact that

155
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 3: it was a huge deal for had to be there

156
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 3: as a woman at the head of Lucasfilm And I'm

157
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 3: excited see what happens next. But make something, guys, we

158
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 3: got to stop putting some stuff out. So Jason, how

159
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 3: do you feel about the future of Star Wars? Is

160
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 3: this you know they'll stop watch vibe? Is it going

161
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:21,680
Speaker 3: up with the confirmation of this news you buy in

162
00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 3: a little bit more?

163
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 1: I think it's I would buy the bump right now.

164
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,240
Speaker 1: I think it's a great bump. I think there's a

165
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 1: lot of steaks in the coming calendar year plus for

166
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:39,520
Speaker 1: Star Wars, and we wait and see it.

167
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 3: You know.

168
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:47,079
Speaker 1: I think the Mando movie many were underwhelmed by the trailer.

169
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:50,719
Speaker 1: Me included it looked like the show.

170
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 2: More of a TV vibe.

171
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 1: And we will see. We have not seen any other

172
00:08:54,440 --> 00:09:00,400
Speaker 1: trailers yet, but I await those and certainly listen, this

173
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 1: is something Folony in charge that Star Wars fans, many

174
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 1: Star Wars fans have been clamoring for for fifteen years,

175
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 1: for a long time, at least a long long time,

176
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,440
Speaker 1: and now we're getting it. I'm eager to see what

177
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 1: he does.

178
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:19,200
Speaker 3: Also as well, I will say that Kathleen gave a

179
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:23,320
Speaker 3: great exit interview at Deadline, and she did say about Brennan,

180
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,600
Speaker 3: who is a bit more of a kind of unknown quantity.

181
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 3: She has been sixteen years at ILM as the general

182
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 3: manager and then transitioned into the general manager as Lucasfilm,

183
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:36,080
Speaker 3: and Kathleen calls her her key financial partner and my

184
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 3: business partner running the company. This is key because I

185
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:40,840
Speaker 3: know we always ragged. They haven't been putting out these

186
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:42,640
Speaker 3: Star Wars movies, but you know what they didn't do.

187
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 3: They didn't make ten Star.

188
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,439
Speaker 2: Wars movies that all half performed.

189
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,840
Speaker 3: Lucasfilm kept its money in movies in its bag and

190
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 3: practiced their shit on TV. Had a few TV shows

191
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,320
Speaker 3: that did work didn't work, but they never had that

192
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,880
Speaker 3: financial foll off that the MCU had. So I think

193
00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 3: that bringing her in is very smart. And obviously you

194
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:05,440
Speaker 3: know Dave Filoni, Pablo Hidalgo, they are the men who

195
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 3: know all the law and the cannon and everything. So

196
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 3: together I think this could be very interesting.

197
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 1: Let's take a quick break when we read that, and

198
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:28,839
Speaker 1: we're back up next. Ted Surrandos, in turning one hundred

199
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 1: and eighty degrees around news, has said to The New

200
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:36,080
Speaker 1: York Times, as reported by Deadline and other places, that

201
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 1: Netflix will absolutely, despite everything that he's said and stood

202
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 1: for over the last decade, will commit to a forty

203
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:52,319
Speaker 1: five day theatrical release window once his purchase of Warner

204
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:56,520
Speaker 1: Brothers is through. He promises, He pinky swears, He swears

205
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:58,000
Speaker 1: to God that he's gonna do it.

206
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,000
Speaker 3: I like the that he's like not yet, Like, I'm

207
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 3: not gonna start doing it Netflix to prove that I'm committed.

208
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 3: I'm gonna do it if you let me buy this company,

209
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 3: where then I will be in charge and won't have

210
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 3: to do it. JAYSI, you know we're living in a

211
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 3: post heated rivalry time. Multiple people and do not google

212
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:18,960
Speaker 3: this unless you are over eighteen have been recommending to

213
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 3: me and my pals a book called The Morning Glory

214
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,720
Speaker 3: Milking Farm. We are in a smart friendly time, Jason,

215
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,320
Speaker 3: We are pro smart. So I would like you to

216
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 3: give your take on what you feel like. Ted surround

217
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:30,959
Speaker 3: Us is really saying here that you put in the

218
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 3: group chat because I was absolutely dying today.

219
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 1: Well, first, let me read his quote in New York

220
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,560
Speaker 1: Times quote, we will run that business largely like it

221
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 1: is today, with forty five day windows, largely, by the way,

222
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:41,839
Speaker 1: doing a.

223
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:48,200
Speaker 2: Huge amount of carrying of weight fifty one percent. How

224
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,679
Speaker 2: much is largely I'm giving you a hard number.

225
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:55,160
Speaker 1: Okay, if we're going to be in the theatrical business,

226
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,680
Speaker 1: we want to win. I want to win opening weekend.

227
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 1: I want to win box office. Now what happens when

228
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,840
Speaker 1: he looks at it and says, well, you know what,

229
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 1: our internal data tells us that actually, like we try

230
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 1: the forty five, but like thirty is better or twenty

231
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:14,200
Speaker 1: five or something. I'll just say this, Ted Sarandos is

232
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 1: It's one thirty am at the bar, and Ted Sarandos

233
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 1: is trying to seal the fucking deal. It's hard for

234
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:26,200
Speaker 1: me not to feel like this guy won't say anything

235
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 1: to get this deal done right at this moment, What

236
00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:32,040
Speaker 1: exactly are the mechanisms in place that will that will

237
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:36,200
Speaker 1: keep Ted to his word? What is he if Ted

238
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 1: goes back on the forty five day, He's gonna be

239
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:40,560
Speaker 1: the first guy ever to like go back on his word.

240
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 2: I don't think so, right, I.

241
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:49,440
Speaker 1: Have I have doubts that Netflix, who has been so

242
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 1: eager to kill the theatrical experience for for a long

243
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 1: time now, is suddenly very much a fan of it.

244
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 2: I have trouble believing that, but we will see.

245
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, your thoughts it is hard to believe. I mean,

246
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:06,960
Speaker 3: my thoughts here are pretty much this is probably his

247
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 3: version of what happened with Zaslav. I'm guessing a few

248
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,320
Speaker 3: different big directors called him and we're like, hey, don't

249
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 3: be doing this shit, and he said, yeah, of course

250
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 3: Steven Spielberg hypothetically, not fact check, just me guessing, uh

251
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:22,160
Speaker 3: that yeah, Christopher Nolan hypothetically, of course, I would never

252
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,160
Speaker 3: take these movies out of the cinema. Of course I

253
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 3: want to work with you, like I agree with you.

254
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 3: It sounds like something he's just saying, especially seeing as

255
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 3: he still doesn't know how to actually roll out a

256
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 3: movie now. Luckily, as I have spoken with friends about,

257
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 3: Warner Brothers has a whole department for doing that. So

258
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 3: my dream is that Netflix and Warner Brothers, if they

259
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 3: do combine, could become a more powerhouse space for the cinema.

260
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 3: But of course we know that that will have to

261
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:47,680
Speaker 3: be proven by actions and not just like Pully quote.

262
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 2: That's right, we will see, we will see, we will see.

263
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:55,319
Speaker 1: It reminds me of you know, the Meatloaf Yes song

264
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:59,040
Speaker 1: where it's like we were do No No, the one

265
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 1: that's like uh, you know, like I forget the name

266
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,559
Speaker 1: of it, but you know the guy is trying to

267
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 1: get ladies like uh, and and the woman is saying

268
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,960
Speaker 1: do you love me? Do you love me forever? And

269
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 1: the guy is saying, let me sleep on it. I

270
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:19,040
Speaker 1: think that's like a little bit tis Paradise by the

271
00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 1: dashboard light, Thank you very much. Hair. Yes, it's very

272
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:23,000
Speaker 1: much like that musician.

273
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 2: Listen. I just I don't know.

274
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 1: All of a sudden, Ted believes the exact opposite of.

275
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:33,920
Speaker 2: What giving is it giving a guy at the bar?

276
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, reading like the you know, the the like ethical

277
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 3: slut talking about his favorite director is great to get

278
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 3: with the guy behind the bar.

279
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 2: Yes, it does read like that. I'm not gonna lie,

280
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 2: but you know what.

281
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:50,000
Speaker 1: We'll see what happens, we will see. And lastly, we

282
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:52,040
Speaker 1: have our third tomb Raider.

283
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 2: I gotta say I was very surprised by how good

284
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 2: this looks.

285
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 3: I did not expect Sophie Tanner to be looking this

286
00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 3: good as lark. This feels actually like they put some

287
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:04,960
Speaker 3: money into it. I was a I'm a Lara Croft fan.

288
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 2: Of the games.

289
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,520
Speaker 3: Obviously huge game for me, puzzle game. I had a

290
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 3: PC that I won from a magazine by drawing a

291
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 3: scary photo, and of course loved that game. And I've

292
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:18,000
Speaker 3: I really that Angelina Jolie Wan's not good movies, but

293
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 3: very campy and fun her accent.

294
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,120
Speaker 2: Oh, I'm Lara Croft, Darling, I've got to go raid

295
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 2: some tombs, like very fun. What about I'm a the

296
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:25,760
Speaker 2: Canda fan.

297
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,600
Speaker 3: I wish that the second Vic Canda movie was had

298
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,640
Speaker 3: actually come out, which was gonna be directed by the

299
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 3: director of kill List, who I just think is so brilliant,

300
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 3: So I would have loved to see that. But you

301
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 3: know what the truth is that I think this actually

302
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 3: looks interesting. It looks very game coded. We were correcting

303
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 3: a lot of jokes because it's like so game like.

304
00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 3: It seems so game realistic that now the big joke

305
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:52,520
Speaker 3: online is like, oh, no triangle boobs. I guess that's woke.

306
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:54,840
Speaker 3: It's like they're just real boobs. But you know, it

307
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,560
Speaker 3: does feel it feels that real. Jason, how about you

308
00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:00,760
Speaker 3: This is also written by you know Bag. This is

309
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:03,400
Speaker 3: written by Phoebe waller Bridge. What do you expect from this?

310
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:07,960
Speaker 1: We've been waiting a long time. I don't think it's

311
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 1: I don't think it's overly harsh to say Phoebe's post

312
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:17,400
