Speaker 2: so much stuff for you, let's talk about it.

13
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 1: First up, new trailer for wonder Man, which is out

14
00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 1: January twenty seventh, showing the lifestyle of a burgeoning superhero

15
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:09,400
Speaker 1: and entertainer out in la We see Ben Kingsley repriasing

16
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 1: his roles from the MCU, of course, as the leader

17
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:17,319
Speaker 1: Treva Slattery, the Great Trevor Slattery, formerly known as the

18
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 1: leader of the Ted Riggs terrorist group, which he was not.

19
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 1: But I love that. I am excited for the show

20
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:28,960
Speaker 1: and I want it to be good. That is my takeaway.

21
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:32,200
Speaker 2: I think the trailer looks really good. I'm excited to

22
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:37,680
Speaker 2: see this kind of like Marvel metacometry about movies and

23
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:41,040
Speaker 2: the making of movies and being an actor. This is

24
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 2: going back to I think what they did best with

25
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,040
Speaker 2: one division, which is they made a show about TV.

26
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 2: So it makes sense that with Simon Williams, who has

27
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 2: that connection, they're going to make a TV show about

28
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 2: movies making movies. And I'm very interested to see how

29
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 2: Trevor plays into this. Obviously, love yayab Dolmatine, He's amazing. Yeah,

30
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 2: and Simon Williams is a great character, so yeah, I

31
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 2: can't wait to see that.

32
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 1: The end of the trailer is really interesting, in which

33
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 1: we see Simon have to sign an NDA. What are

34
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 1: his further audience at home? Who's not Superverse down Wonderman?

35
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 1: Like what is Wonderman steel?

36
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,080
Speaker 2: Okay, So the very interesting thing about this is there

37
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 2: seems to be some kind of law against superheroes being

38
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 2: in movies, So I think we could be seeing our

39
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 2: establishment of these kind of class systems that we've been

40
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 2: looking for. But Simon Williams basically another iconic you know,

41
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 2: Stanley Doneck, Jack Kirby, creation Avengers Number nine, nineteen sixty four,

42
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 2: and he has ionic powers, so he can use energy.

43
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 2: He's basically near and vulnerable, and the version that it

44
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 2: seems to be hinting at in the movie is that

45
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 2: he is not necessarily in control of those powers in

46
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 2: the show, and maybe when he gets emotional they kind

47
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,839
Speaker 2: of expand out. It's an interesting thing because we've never

48
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 2: really seen Simon as a human first. We usually see

49
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,360
Speaker 2: him as a hero first or a villain first, depending

50
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 2: on the version. So yeah, I I'm intrigued to see

51
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:06,799
Speaker 2: where it goes and whether or not we get to

52
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,200
Speaker 2: see him use his powers fully or if it's just

53
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,359
Speaker 2: gonna be kind of like a little tease. But yeah,

54
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 2: he's essentially like a Superman style character, but he can

55
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 2: use ionic energy to fly, to fight, to punch through walls.

56
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,639
Speaker 2: So he's just your your generic strong guy, and I'm

57
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 2: very interested to see what Yaya brings to that next.

58
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:31,079
Speaker 1: Kloe Jao and Nicholas Ganda launched Kodansha Studios to create

59
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 1: live action adaptations from the world of manga. This is

60
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 1: tremendously exciting.

61
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:37,960
Speaker 2: Yeah.

62
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 1: The studio to produce live action movies and TV shows

63
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 1: using the IP library of Kodansha Comics, a Japanese manga publisher.

64
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: Kodanha publishes titles such as Akira, Ever Heard of? Attack

65
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: on Titan? Ever heard of that? Sailor Moon? Ever heard?

66
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 2: I love this? Everyone knows I'm a huge Kloeho fan.

67
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,160
Speaker 2: I think that she has got the range. I think

68
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:04,600
Speaker 2: she's got the interesting insight and takes that need to

69
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 2: work with a Cadancer project. I'm still I doubt Chloe

70
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 2: Jao is banging down the door to make a Kira

71
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 2: the most unfilmable anime of all time by the legendary

72
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 2: A Tomo. But but Kadancher has an unbelievable catalog of

73
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:24,719
Speaker 2: the coolest, weirdest anime sci fi, romance superheroes. They recently

74
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,599
Speaker 2: did a hilarious range of DC Mango, which I cannot

75
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 2: recommend enough Like this is great. Kadancer's publication is amazing,

76
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 2: and it tells me that Kadancer wants to do something

77
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:36,840
Speaker 2: good and interesting by hiring someone like.

78
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 1: Chloe Jaw completely agree up next Predator Bad Lance has

79
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:46,600
Speaker 1: earned four point eight million dollars in previews before preview openings.

80
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 1: That's not bad. Here are the projections. Variety projects twenty

81
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:55,799
Speaker 1: five to thirty opening weekend deadline twenty five to sixty globally.

82
00:04:56,080 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 1: This is twenty five domestic sixty globalbally. Now, if this

83
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 1: movie breaks the thirty five million opening thirty five million

84
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: opening weekend milestone, it will be the second largest opening

85
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,799
Speaker 1: in the history of the franchise, after Alien Versus Predator,

86
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 1: which made thirty eight million domestically on its opening weekend

87
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 1: and was sadly not as good as everybody wanted it

88
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:21,719
Speaker 1: to be. But Rosie your thoughts.

89
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 2: I think I think it's going to open higher than this.

90
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 2: I think it could open as high as fifty. Jason,

91
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,080
Speaker 2: you have seen the movie. We haven't had your takes

92
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 2: on it. Give us your credit to bad Lands reaction.

93
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,600
Speaker 1: My quick bad Lands reaction is it's one of the

94
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:38,159
Speaker 1: best looking action movies I've seen. So good. It looks.

95
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 1: It looks good. There's a texture to it, something that looks.

96
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:51,920
Speaker 1: It looks like wonderfully photo reel, but not in that

97
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 1: fake kind of oversea ged way. I don't know. Everything

98
00:05:55,760 --> 00:06:02,040
Speaker 1: looks dirty, everything looks grungy, and that's absolutely appropriate. The

99
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 1: creature design is great, Like it's so many it's really

100
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 1: it looks it's really good and really exciting. I am

101
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 1: going to predict I'm going to say it slightly overshoots

102
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,679
Speaker 1: the coverage at forty.

103
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,040
Speaker 2: I think that's fat. I think because it's a PG thirteen,

104
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,160
Speaker 2: what of mouth could be good? People are going to

105
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,280
Speaker 2: realize they can take that kids to it. I think

106
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 2: it could. Yeah, I think it could over index a little.

107
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 1: Let's take a quick break and movie back with Mornings. Yeah,

108
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 1: and we're back. Warners has announced that it is producing

109
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 1: Gremlins three, with your old favorites returning to produce Steven

110
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:52,480
Speaker 1: Spielberg and Chris Columbus.

111
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:52,799
Speaker 2: Wow.

112
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,680
Speaker 1: The movie is set to release already released it release

113
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,279
Speaker 1: date November seventeen, twenty twenty seven, our first Gremlins movie

114
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 1: in thirty seven years. Spielberg will ep, Columbus will produce indirect,

115
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,479
Speaker 1: and they apparently already have a script by Zak Lapowsky

116
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: and Adam b Stein, who are the directors of Final

117
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 1: Destinations Blood Lines. So let's see. Okay, it means this

118
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 1: comedy real and I believe that this is probably gonna happen,

119
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 1: But the wording of the release leads me to believe

120
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 1: they have probably like a story outline, but not much else.

121
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 2: That's why I was thinking, because otherwise I feel like

122
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,840
Speaker 2: you'd probably have like a little log line or a paragraph.

123
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 2: But honestly, final destinations, bloodlines. We were all big fans

124
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,880
Speaker 2: of it. Hit so silly, so fun. I think that's

125
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 2: the right tone for a Gremlins movie, though we will likely,

126
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:46,720
Speaker 2: you know, tone down the blood and gore a little bit.

127
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:50,280
Speaker 2: But yeah, I'm intrigued. Hopefully they're still using puppets. Nobody

128
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 2: wants to see a CG. Gremlin, especially after the beautifully

129
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 2: animated series they did on HBO Max two series by

130
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,120
Speaker 2: Jay I believe, and it was really cute. So we

131
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 2: want to see either a nice animated movie or good

132
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 2: practical effects. No CG Gizmo please yes?

133
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 1: Uh. And finally, Jennifer Lawrence was on the Lost Culturistas

134
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 1: pod this week, in which she casually announced she says,

135
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm allowed to announce this. I

136
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 1: firmly believe that this is a very planned.

137
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 2: Of course, there's no way, there's no way that he's

138
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,200
Speaker 2: gonna just let you, like announce a Muppets movie.

139
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:37,400
Speaker 1: No. General, Lawrence announced that she is with alongside Emma Stone,

140
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 1: developing a Miss Piggy movie with Tony Winner Cole Escola.

141
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 2: Perfect perfect.

142
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 1: I wonder what this could mean, and I assume this

143
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 1: means that Jennifer would.

144
00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,160
Speaker 2: No, no, no, they say Jennifer and Emma maybe in

145
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 2: the movie. I'm sure they'll be in the movie. I

146
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 2: think they're going to go for a classic Muppet style

147
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:03,040
Speaker 2: setut where you have, like also Cola scolas O, Mary

148
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 2: is very much kind of a Muppet movie set up,

149
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 2: where you have your straight characters and then you have

150
00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 2: your one crazy characters. So I'm guessing it's gonna be

151
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 2: Miss Piggy as the star, and knowing Cole, they'll probably

152
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,199
Speaker 2: be like a hilarious twist. But yeah, I think this

153
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 2: is the perfect fit. I love the Muppets. I think

154
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:23,360
Speaker 2: the Muppets are very underutilized. IP yes, could be constantly

155
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 2: be making brilliant, incredible stuff. I would assume for a

156
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 2: movie this big frank Oz is probably gonna voice Miss Piggy.

157
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 2: He's probably got it. Yeah, if you gotta bring Frankie back,

158
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 2: this is the thing. They got to pick a good genre,

159
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 2: so you could do like, you know, Miss Piggy in

160
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 2: Pride and Prejudice or something like something like that would

161
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 2: be really funny, like a timeline. It's some kind of

162
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,520
Speaker 2: time play. But yeah, you're right, great Muppet Caper Banger,

163
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 2: all of those original movies, the Muppet Movie, Muppets from Space, like,

164
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:55,240
Speaker 2: they're great movies and they should be making more of them.

165
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 2: So this to me seems like it's gonna happen. Fingers crossed.

166
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 2: It doesn't get forgotten in you know, the Hollywood kind

167
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 2: of whatever.

168
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:05,680
Speaker 1: But let's be real.

169
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 2: Emma Stone, Jennif Florence, there's some two pretty big names,

170
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:12,839
Speaker 2: so hopefully we can make this a reality. On next
