Godzilla x Kong.

17

: 00:00:56

Is that really is that really the.

18

: 00:00:58

You have to say it's the X is the X silent

and why wouldn't it be.

19

: 00:01:02

And Kong because the lost versus Kong,

then it would have an ampersand

20

: 00:01:05

or a plus sign.

21

: 00:01:06

I don't know, as an X-Men and

22

: 00:01:10

I know X can't give it to you.

23

: 00:01:11

Oh yeah, DMX reference so

24

: 00:01:16

I mean, this should really just be called

25

: 00:01:18

Kong The New Empire

for how little Godzilla is really in it.

26

: 00:01:21

Whoa, whoa. Okay.

27

: 00:01:22

So welcome.

28

: 00:01:24

Yes. Mike and I watched this movie

last night in Imax.

29

: 00:01:29

I mean, it was loud.

30

: 00:01:30

I don't know if it I it's tough

because I've seen a ton of stuff in Imax,

31

: 00:01:35

so I never really

I maybe I've, I've lost the wow of of Imax

32

: 00:01:39

or the only time I only ever the only time

I ever really remember like oh wow.

33

: 00:01:44

That's awesome.

34

: 00:01:45

Was ghost protocol is Mission Impossible

ghost protocol.

35

: 00:01:47

When the screen goes up as he steps out

onto the side of the building.

36

: 00:01:52

that's the only time

that I really was like,

37

: 00:01:55

all right, Imax,

what about in the beginning? Yes.

38

: 00:01:59

Tron was,

when the city, goes up at the end.

39

: 00:02:03

Yeah. Tron.

40

: 00:02:04

You're talking about Tron legacy.

Tron legacy? Yeah.

41

: 00:02:06

Right. Right.

42

: 00:02:07

When we had the

the Imax guy was going around from,

43

: 00:02:09

theater to theater,

44

: 00:02:10

making sure that everyone's speakers

45

: 00:02:12

didn't blow up

because they were blowing up around.

46

: 00:02:14

Yeah.

47

: 00:02:15

for those who don't know, we we've we

48

: 00:02:16

I don't we keep mentioning this,

but we Mike and I worked actually,

49

: 00:02:20

we worked at the theater that we went to,

for quite some time, much longer than MC

50

: 00:02:24

and, we kind of have, inside knowledge

of, like, you know, the stuff

51

: 00:02:29

behind the scenes in terms of the Imax

and the theaters and stuff like that.

52

: 00:02:32

So every once in a while,

something kind of sparks

53

: 00:02:36

our memory about, like, you know, the,

the stupid stuff that we had to deal with

54

: 00:02:40

working at a movie theater and running

a movie theater sparks out PTSD.

55

: 00:02:46

okay,

56

: 00:02:46

so, we are definitely both Godzilla fans.

57

: 00:02:50

I know that,

we just to give you a little background,

58

: 00:02:53

not just Godzilla fans

in terms of the new stuff.

59

: 00:02:56

but the old stuff.

60

: 00:02:58

I'm talking smog monster Godzilla.

61

: 00:03:00

I'm talking like, that kind of stuff.

62

: 00:03:01

So, like, I grew up

watching all that stuff on Pix11,

63

: 00:03:04

even, like Mighty Joe Young

and all that stuff.

64

: 00:03:07

So, the King Kong with Godzilla stuff.

65

: 00:03:09

I love those monsters.

66

: 00:03:10

I know Mike is the same.

67

: 00:03:13

Not maybe not.

68

: 00:03:14

We're ten years apart,

so ten, 13 years apart. So.

69

: 00:03:16

But, Mike,

you kind of still grew up on that stuff.

70

: 00:03:19

Oh, yeah. Great. Yeah. Yeah.

71

: 00:03:21

11 like watching Godzilla 1985.

72

: 00:03:25

oh, yeah.

73

: 00:03:26

Like that change changed my life, man.

74

: 00:03:28

But then all like the Sci-Fi channel

marathon and stuff.

75

: 00:03:31

If there was ever a marathon,

I always had my parents record it.

76

: 00:03:34

We don't have this one, this one

and this one.

77

: 00:03:35

So I had them record over a series

of time, like every night telefilm.

78

: 00:03:39

I was obsessed with Godzilla as a kid.

79

: 00:03:42

and so my,

80

: 00:03:44

my comment all the time when those movies,

all those movies, these those ones,

81

: 00:03:48

the one that was in 19,

, we did that in: 1988

82

: 00:03:54

Yeah. 98.

83

: 00:03:55

Because.

84

: 00:03:55

Yeah, because I can't I always,

I always think 96 for some reason,

85

: 00:03:59

the one with Matthew Broderick

and then, even these new ones,

86

: 00:04:03

or the only thing I always say

87

: 00:04:04

when people are like,

oh, are you going to see Godzilla?

88

: 00:04:06

Go see this movie? Why?

89

: 00:04:07

And I'm like, I just want to see

monsters fight, that's all.

90

: 00:04:11

I don't care about the people.

I don't calm down.

91

: 00:04:14

You know, the the the kind of,

92

: 00:04:16

epiphanies they have

when they watch these two giant creatures.

93

: 00:04:19

I mean, I think it is pretty cool in,

which one was.

94

: 00:04:23

Which one was where he goes.

95

: 00:04:24

Let them fight. Like, that's that.

96

: 00:04:26

That part was that the first one?

97

: 00:04:28

That was the first.

That was the first one.

98

: 00:04:29

Yeah. Yeah. Okay.

99

: 00:04:30

I do like that.

100

: 00:04:32

But other than that, I don't care about

the humans in, in these type of films.

101

: 00:04:35

I just want to see monsters fight.

102

: 00:04:36

And in this movie, that's what we get.

103

: 00:04:40

We just get monsters fighting.

104

: 00:04:42

We just get nonstop.

105

: 00:04:43

And while it is at the we can get into it.

106

: 00:04:47

It is at the, detriment to the

plot, which is non-existent.

107

: 00:04:54

Okay,

108

: 00:04:55

I was all right with that. Absolutely.

109

: 00:04:57

so, I mean,

I know we kind of bounce around

110

: 00:04:59

kind of like what's good, what's bad,

what we like, what we didn't like.

111

: 00:05:02

let's, let's let's definitely start off

with, let's start off with what

112

: 00:05:05

you liked.

113

: 00:05:06

I obviously,

I kind of started off on something about

114

: 00:05:07

I like, well, what's something

115

: 00:05:09

I know you like the monsters fighting,

but other than that, what else?

116

: 00:05:11

What else is something you liked in here?

117

: 00:05:13

I actually, as dumb

as I thought he was going to be.

118

: 00:05:16

I liked Diddy Kong.

119

: 00:05:18

I liked that little monkey guy.

120

: 00:05:20

I don't think that's his name,

but yes, I don't know his name, I don't,

121

: 00:05:23

I don't bother.

122

: 00:05:23

Look it up. He's going to be Diddy

Kong through the rest of this episode.

123

: 00:05:25

You like Diddy Kong

being used as a weapon?

124

: 00:05:28

Lenny Palmer I loved that.

125

: 00:05:31

I do love how like it wasn't

like an instant love story between Kong

126

: 00:05:35

and this little baby.

127

: 00:05:36

Baby monkey. Like,

he starts biting his fingers.

128

: 00:05:39

He's fighting.

129

: 00:05:39

But yeah, when he uses the kid as a

as a club, I was all about it.

130

: 00:05:43

I thought that was awesome.

131

: 00:05:45

Yeah, yeah, yeah, that was good.

132

: 00:05:47

I was actually, surprising highlight.

133

: 00:05:50

I really thought he was going

to ruin the movie for me.

134

: 00:05:54

So you liked

135

: 00:05:55

his general arc, his story

arc of obviously,

136

: 00:05:59

you know, not trusting Kong and

and then and then obviously

137

: 00:06:03

Kong kind of takes him under his wing

even though he doesn't want to.

138

: 00:06:06

And then like his whole storyline

where I guess that was his mother

139

: 00:06:10

or father,

that the scar King kicked into the.

140

: 00:06:15

Yeah, yeah. They didn't.

141

: 00:06:16

I mean, I guess that's

what you kind of have to infer.

142

: 00:06:19

and then

and then obviously he sighs. Okay.

143

: 00:06:22

So you enjoyed all of that.

You thought that all played well for you?

144

: 00:06:25

I, I do, I do it's silly.

145

: 00:06:26

It was silly obviously, but

I think it played well and it wasn't ever.

146

: 00:06:32

There wasn't too much of him to make

it make me annoyed that he was there.

147

: 00:06:36

I think there was just to

have him service.

148

: 00:06:38

The story.

149

: 00:06:40

Okay.

150

: 00:06:40

Anything.

What else? What else did you like?

151

: 00:06:42

I'll give you one because you went on.

152

: 00:06:44

I'll give you one.

153

: 00:06:45

I after I just after

I just said I don't care about the people.

154

: 00:06:49

I actually thought

Dan Stevens was awesome in this film.

155

: 00:06:52

And not just that he was really good,

but his role, like, it's a great

156

: 00:06:56

it's a great role to have

157

: 00:06:57

that's like it because he's he's

you know, he's a little off center.

158

: 00:07:01

He can bring like you know the comedy.

159

: 00:07:04

and he's got and it's just and he's

definitely a full fleshed character.

160

: 00:07:08

But still

161

: 00:07:09

there are many actors that get great roles

and they don't really bring a lot to it.

162

: 00:07:12

So I think, you know what I mean.

163

: 00:07:13

Like, so I think that it's almost like

it's almost like Sam Rockwell

164

: 00:07:17

when he's in a he's in a role.

165

: 00:07:19

It's like it's his he's got that charm of

oh yeah, absolutely.

166

: 00:07:21

I think Dan Stevens does the same thing

here.

167

: 00:07:23

And I like Dan Stevens.

168

: 00:07:24

as an actor,

I haven't seen everything. He's.

169

: 00:07:27

And I don't know if you've ever seen

the Will Ferrell Rachel McAdams,

170

: 00:07:30

Netflix film where they're doing the,

171

: 00:07:33

the doing the song big song competition,

the European, the Euro.

172

: 00:07:36

Oh, no, I haven't seen that. Is he in the.

173

: 00:07:39

Have you. Yes.

174

: 00:07:40

You should see it

because Dan Stevens plays the Russian.

175

: 00:07:43

and and entrant in that

and like the singer

176

: 00:07:46

so like that that's actually the,

the movie's pretty good.

177

: 00:07:48

You really should say

you and Elise were both like that.

178

: 00:07:50

but he's really good.

That's so. I liked the in Stevens.

179

: 00:07:53

I thought he had a really good role here.

I thought he really nailed it.

180

: 00:07:55

I like you're knocked out of the park.

Probably the.

181

: 00:07:57

I mean, other than,

182

: 00:08:01

I'm trying to think of the actor's name.

183

: 00:08:03

I'm blanking on the name.

184

: 00:08:06

I mean, David

Strathairn was good in the series.

185

: 00:08:09

I'm thinking about

the whole series of movies.

186

: 00:08:11

All right.

187

: 00:08:12

Yeah, he.

188

: 00:08:13

I liked his characters

decent in this film.

189

: 00:08:15

Who's who's the who's the Asian actor

who's in Tokyo vice?

190

: 00:08:18

Who's the Asian actor he plays? Yes.

191

: 00:08:21

That's it.

192

: 00:08:21

It I like to I like him

in this whole set of 4 or 5 films.

193

: 00:08:26

but I think Dan Stevens is probably

my favorite

194

: 00:08:31

so far within these new set of Godzilla

and monster universe and Kong.

195

: 00:08:35

And I've yet to see the show on Apple,

which I probably will soon.

196

: 00:08:39

but yeah, I like Dan in this.

197

: 00:08:41

excuse me, Mr. Stevens.

198

: 00:08:44

No, I think Dan Stevens is really good.

199

: 00:08:45

I actually think, you know, everyone's

talking about, like,

200

: 00:08:48

different contenders for bond and stuff,

but I think he'd be a decent contender.

201

: 00:08:51

He was really good in the,

202

: 00:08:53

there's a horror thriller movie

where he's kind of a guest.

203

: 00:08:56

Yes. The guest, he's

very good in The guest.

204

: 00:08:59

So between him playing like this goofy guy

in Kong and playing

205

: 00:09:02

that kind of hitman type character,

I think he like,

206

: 00:09:05

he could probably play a decent

James Bond.

207

: 00:09:08

He's also very good in Downton Abbey.

208

: 00:09:09

I'm just gonna throw that out.

That's where he kind of came from.

209

: 00:09:12

Yeah. Matthew. Yeah, that's right.

210

: 00:09:14

I watch Downton Abbey.

211

: 00:09:15

I don't care.

212

: 00:09:18

But yeah.

213

: 00:09:18

So give me something else you liked.

214

: 00:09:20

I mean, it's a spoiler, but obviously

215

: 00:09:23

if you're watching this, obviously

we always give spoilers.

216

: 00:09:25

I like the surprise appearance of Mothra.

217

: 00:09:28

I know it kind of breaks the story,

but I haven't watched King of the monsters

218

: 00:09:31

in a while.

219

: 00:09:31

Although that's still my favorite.

220

: 00:09:33

I think of the, these movies,

so I don't really remember exactly how

221

: 00:09:38

story breaking it is that Mothra is there,

although there are more Mothra part.

222

: 00:09:41

Oh, I think they do mention that.

I'll tell you, I'll tell you.

223

: 00:09:44

I know you just watched it on on TNT or.

224

: 00:09:46

Well, so

225

: 00:09:48

so for those who don't know and for those

who do know, it's a really refresh

226

: 00:09:51

of the Mothra lore is that there's always

those two, Japanese women.

227

: 00:09:56

What is this?

228

: 00:09:57

What is going on here? Close. Oh, yeah.

229

: 00:09:59

It's two.

230

: 00:10:00

The twins. Japanese. They always.

231

: 00:10:02

They they, like, can talk with Mothra,

and they help Mothra get through.

232

: 00:10:06

Get through things,

I guess. And just kind of like that.

233

: 00:10:08

I don't wanna say control Mothra,

but they basically can, can,

234

: 00:10:10

can communicate with Mothra.

235

: 00:10:12

And they're the keeper of of Mothra and

all that stuff and everything around her.

236

: 00:10:16

And that the whole family thing.

237

: 00:10:17

No, that's in the original Godzilla.

238

: 00:10:19

All the original lore in Godzilla.

239

: 00:10:21

King of the monsters.

240

: 00:10:24

When they're on the ship, they have

there's a conversation that's being had

241

: 00:10:28

with, a Japanese actress, and she's

talking about how, oh, you know, Mothra.

242

: 00:10:33

She she's the one that talks about Mothra

when they're not really sure about her.

243

: 00:10:36

And then she talks about, oh,

and she has photos at her station,

244

: 00:10:40

and it's her and her family,

and they she's like, oh,

245

: 00:10:42

my family before me,

my mother before me, my grandmother.

246

: 00:10:45

We, you know,

we we've we know a lot about Mothra.

247

: 00:10:48

So they kind of allude to that same lore

248

: 00:10:51

in this set of movies.

249

: 00:10:54

So to have now that the iwi tribe that

250

: 00:10:58

this whole prophecy that someone from the

iwi tribe is, is, you know, is

251

: 00:11:01

the person that would awaken Mothra again

and bring her back and blah, blah, blah.

252

: 00:11:05

It's like, well, that

253

: 00:11:07

I understand if you want to move away

from the Lord from a different set of,

254

: 00:11:10

you know, Godzilla series,

but this is in your own series of films.

255

: 00:11:15

So now you're kind of just backtracking

256

: 00:11:18

now, and it's I, I have to

I have to kind of like that.

257

: 00:11:22

There has to be held accountable.

You can't. You're changing.

258

: 00:11:24

It's like you're changing things

that you set up already.

259

: 00:11:27

So that's all. That's the only thing now.

260

: 00:11:29

Yes it's cool them

author came back and it's great. Awesome.

261

: 00:11:32

But it just it kind of as soon as it came

up I'm like wait a minute.

262

: 00:11:36

That's not what they said.

263

: 00:11:37

And then it turned to you

and you told me to shut up. So, you know,

264

: 00:11:42

well,

I think I mentioned that there can be

265

: 00:11:43

multiple more threads, which

I think they do say in that one as well.

266

: 00:11:47

You know, Mothra comes back, dies

and new pod is there.

267

: 00:11:50

It's not like, I guess Godzilla

and all the other Titans where it's.

268

: 00:11:53

Well,

I guess Kong also comes from a family

269

: 00:11:55

where a lot of the other titans

seem to have always existed.

270

: 00:11:58

So are we saying that Mothra

271

: 00:12:00

is a sentient creature,

that that shares their experiences

272

: 00:12:04

and their memories in their life

between the different versions of Mothra?

273

: 00:12:07

Like is the multiple that we saw

in this movie.

274

: 00:12:10

The city knows what happened

two movies ago.

275

: 00:12:13

Well, I don't want to get nerdy here, but

it's thought that insects share genetic

276

: 00:12:17

genetic memory, so it won't remember

what happened to the Mothra when it died.

277

: 00:12:21

But it would remember whatever happened

to whatever Mothra before it.

278

: 00:12:24

Later. Eggs.

279

: 00:12:25

Okay, well, you can't get nerdy like,

280

: 00:12:26

when you're already nerdy,

so you're already there.

281

: 00:12:29

We're already

talking about Godzilla. Kong.

282

: 00:12:33

Sorry to get what?

283

: 00:12:33

Etymology. Just on your word.

284

: 00:12:36

Well, well, give me something else then.

285

: 00:12:38

Not that we're going negative,

but just give you something else.

286

: 00:12:40

That kind of you.

287

: 00:12:42

Who you just kind of like, Okay.

288

: 00:12:44

You know, I mean, I,

we generally like this film, but we are.

289

: 00:12:47

And so the things that we're talking

about, I think we're going to pass,

290

: 00:12:49

I think give us something else

that you give a pass.

291

: 00:12:53

The, the bad guy isn't strong enough.

292

: 00:12:57

I don't think if we're going a little

negative, I think that the scar King a

293

: 00:13:02

he needs the big ice monster, which,

listen, anger.

294

: 00:13:05

Which really pissed me off.

295

: 00:13:06

Like, come on, he looks exactly like him.

296

: 00:13:08

Well, let's just just call him.

297

: 00:13:09

Anger is get the rights

to the other monsters.

298

: 00:13:11

Let's go.

299

: 00:13:12

I was like a

I thought that was like a female Godzilla.

300

: 00:13:15

I thought that's

what were they were going for.

301

: 00:13:17

Yeah. It's like I,

I thought that they were gone for.

302

: 00:13:21

But like, you need that.

303

: 00:13:23

You need the lizard.

And it's easily beaten by Godzilla.

304

: 00:13:26

Like the whole like Godzilla is charging

up. It's World War three.

305

: 00:13:29

This seemed like the least difficult fight

306

: 00:13:32

that they've had to fight in

any of the movies like this.

307

: 00:13:35

This fight just at the at the end fight,

when they send, it's like.

308

: 00:13:39

And that run had a scar.

309

: 00:13:41

King didn't have a chance.

310

: 00:13:42

As soon as Godzilla got into a thing

like King Kong, almost.

311

: 00:13:44

Kong almost beat the Scar King

once at the beginning, right?

312

: 00:13:48

It's like once Godzilla got in there,

I felt like there was.

313

: 00:13:52

I mean, obviously they're going to win.

314

: 00:13:53

It's it's a Godzilla Kong movie.

315

: 00:13:55

But just like there's no stakes,

there was no point in which I was like,

316

: 00:13:59

oh, he's really got them on the ropes.

317

: 00:14:01

No, Godzilla's absorbed

like 80 billion nuclear bombs.

318

: 00:14:05

He's he's ready to go.

319

: 00:14:06

Yeah, but I think that goes to

my point of just fight.

320

: 00:14:09

Let's just have monster fights.

321

: 00:14:10

Yeah, and you know what I mean?

322

: 00:14:12

I just think they need a stronger than

Louie from, The Jungle Book.

323

: 00:14:17

As soon as he appeared on the throne,

all I could think of.

324

: 00:14:19

I want to be like you.

325

: 00:14:22

What kind of, ape is he supposed to be?

326

: 00:14:26

I have no, it

327

: 00:14:27

he looks like a, emaciated orangutan

because he's got a super long arms.

328

: 00:14:31

But I don't know if he's actually supposed

329

: 00:14:32

to be, like,

all of Kong's people are obviously some.

330

: 00:14:36

Some, Well, some of them weren't.

331

: 00:14:37

Some of them were.

332

: 00:14:38

So like,

some of them more and more like scar.

333

: 00:14:41

Yeah.

334

: 00:14:41

Yeah.

335

: 00:14:41

Of the, of the of the Titans that were.

336

: 00:14:44

I guess they're all considered Titans

in that little bit, which, you know,

337

: 00:14:49

some of them were like, cut look like Kong

and some of them didn't.

338

: 00:14:53

Some of them were just kind of like

like almost like like a gross.

339

: 00:14:56

They almost they were,

you know what they reminded me of?

340

: 00:14:58

They reminded me of the hybrid human,

alien and alien resurrection and.

341

: 00:15:04

Oh, yeah, quite a little bit. Yeah.

342

: 00:15:07

Just just in the facial facial area.

343

: 00:15:09

So. Yeah.

344

: 00:15:10

And speaking while we're on that subject,

can you explain to me what exactly

345

: 00:15:13

they're doing in that pit?

Moving boulders and rocks?

346

: 00:15:16

What are they doing?

347

: 00:15:17

I thought at first

I thought they were clearing the space.

348

: 00:15:20

We said that Godzilla collapsed the rocks

all over the Scar King to keep them

349

: 00:15:24

trapped in the volcano. Whatever.

350

: 00:15:25

So we couldn't

get up to the real world. But

351

: 00:15:28

they're just, like, out around nowhere.

352

: 00:15:30

They're in the movie.

353

: 00:15:31

No where they can go out into the forest

like there's portals.

354

: 00:15:34

There's other portals.

Kong knows about a portal.

355

: 00:15:37

Yeah, definitely a thousand years.

356

: 00:15:39

And you haven't found anything.

Come on. And.

357

: 00:15:41

And when they wanted to leave,

he just left.

358

: 00:15:44

He hopped on the ice thing, and they. Why?

359

: 00:15:47

They climbed out?

360

: 00:15:48

Yeah, that was my other thing too.

361

: 00:15:50

Is, how hollow is Earth?

362

: 00:15:55

So it's got multiple levels.

363

: 00:15:58

It's so big that we now

we have a subterranean hollow area

364

: 00:16:01

that we've never taught, we've never

experienced, and it's just as huge.

365

: 00:16:06

And I'm just. And when they were fighting.

366

: 00:16:09

When they were chasing,

when Kong first fight scar came.

367

: 00:16:12

Which every time I say the name, I think

Lion King every time.

368

: 00:16:15

So anytime they were fighting

and he when they fought and he escapes

369

: 00:16:19

and they chase him,

I have difficulty figuring out that, okay,

370

: 00:16:23

they just left the subterranean level

because he's trying to set them up.

371

: 00:16:26

He's trying to get them trapped

in that little section,

372

: 00:16:29

because that's when Diddy Kong comes in

and rips the rope.

373

: 00:16:31

And they those people, those three I, I

didn't I was like, okay, so the he's out.

374

: 00:16:37

He climbed out of that region like that's

what I that's what I understood

375

: 00:16:41

to even get to the region.

376

: 00:16:42

All he did was jump down

from his cave and walk forward.

377

: 00:16:45

It wasn't really like

they call it the subterranean region,

378

: 00:16:48

but at no point did

I feel like he was going that much down.

379

: 00:16:51

He was just kind of

going a little further than he was.

380

: 00:16:55

I think it was just confused

about the geography of everything.

381

: 00:16:58

they don't show

how he gets into the cave.

382

: 00:17:00

He just all of a

sudden is in the King's cave.

383

: 00:17:03

And then.

384

: 00:17:03

And then that same issue I had with the

geography was when they get into the iwi.

385

: 00:17:09

Oh, sanctuary area.

386

: 00:17:11

And now all of a sudden, they're just

all there, and they just all showed up.

387

: 00:17:15

And I don't understand what's happening.

388

: 00:17:16

And then there's giant crystals and,

389

: 00:17:18

that whole, that whole stuff was just

I mean, at that point, I didn't care.

390

: 00:17:22

They were fighting.

The monsters were going at it.

391

: 00:17:24

I was fine with that.

392

: 00:17:25

I mean, I joked with you

when we were talking about,

393

: 00:17:29

when we saw the trailer,

and I always just laugh

394

: 00:17:31

when they show the shot of them

running and just.

395

: 00:17:34

But but in the movie,

I'm just like, yeah, right.

396

: 00:17:36

It works like,

397

: 00:17:38

I mean,

398

: 00:17:39

you've already watched

Godzilla suplex Kong.

399

: 00:17:42

Oh, that was that was awesome.

400

: 00:17:44

That was awesome.

401

: 00:17:45

The fact that that he did

a wrestling move was fantastic.

402

: 00:17:48

I mean, that's exactly I loved that.

403

: 00:17:51

I was like, oh yeah.

404

: 00:17:52

but yeah, it's

just it's you're watching it.

405

: 00:17:55

And at the same time you're like,

oh my God, this is so dumb.

406

: 00:17:58

But then you're like, I love it,

I don't care.

407

: 00:17:59

Like it's just absolutely who cares?

408

: 00:18:01

Like, that's I,

I almost think like the director,

409

: 00:18:05

he maybe he heard me telepathically.

410

: 00:18:07

Adam Wingard he was like,

this is maybe he just.

411

: 00:18:11

Maybe he feels the same way. I do.

412

: 00:18:12

This is what people this is what I want.

413

: 00:18:14

This is what I want to do.

I just want to have them fight.

414

: 00:18:17

he directed the last one

and which he directed the guest as well.

415

: 00:18:21

I believe. I'd have to double check that.

416

: 00:18:24

but it pretty sure he's an easy producer.

417

: 00:18:26

He directed it.

418

: 00:18:27

and,

419

: 00:18:30

so that and we just talked about that, so,

I mean, and, he's proven right,

420

: 00:18:34

but because I'm looking at the numbers

right now and as of yesterday

421

: 00:18:38

and it did open internationally

at the same time it opened here, it's me.

422

: 00:18:43

It budget was 135 million.

423

: 00:18:44

It's already made 200 million.

424

: 00:18:46

Yeah.

425

: 00:18:47

So it's gonna make sorry Ghostbusters now.

426

: 00:18:51

I mean, listen, they didn't stand a chance

against Godzilla.

427

: 00:18:53

They should. Monster.

428

: 00:18:54

The monster universe monsters.

429

: 00:18:56

And Godzilla and King Kong are an innocent

actor, just like James Bond.

430

: 00:19:00

They do. Well, everywhere.

431

: 00:19:01

I look at a look at Godzilla minus one.

432

: 00:19:04

Yeah, we haven't seen that yet.

433

: 00:19:06

And we haven't seen that yet.

434

: 00:19:08

Still doesn't come out even in Japan.

435

: 00:19:10

It doesn't come out

till May. Like this thing.

436

: 00:19:11

Come on.

437

: 00:19:13

I'm surprised it's not back in theaters.

438

: 00:19:14

Like I didn't just come back out again.

439

: 00:19:16

Maybe it's too confusing

because the because this is out.

440

: 00:19:18

But I mean, they're gonna

441

: 00:19:19

they're gonna make another one.

I don't know what the heck

442

: 00:19:21

they're going to do,

but they're gonna make another one.

443

: 00:19:23

I mean, it doesn't make sense

not to bring back Mecha Ghidra.

444

: 00:19:29

Oh, I don't know about.

445

: 00:19:30

I mean, I always want to see Smog Monster

again, but, I mean, what's funny,

446

: 00:19:33

though, you could do spot monster

because pollution is still a big deal.

447

: 00:19:36

And you could. That could be your thing.

448

: 00:19:38

It's always gonna it's

always going to be a big deal.

449

: 00:19:40

but the thing with that, though,

is, and I want to get into

450

: 00:19:43

the other monsters in this one.

451

: 00:19:45

But the thing with the smog monsters,

that's always

452

: 00:19:46

the one that scared me the most as a kid,

because the way it killed people

453

: 00:19:50

and rising up.

454

: 00:19:51

But I still

it was always the one I think about.

455

: 00:19:53

I know it's got a different name.

456

: 00:19:54

I'm what I always call it

smog Monster. It's called something else.

457

: 00:19:56

right.

458

: 00:19:58

Pedro Hedra I can't, I never know,

I think, I think, hedra.

459

: 00:20:02

Yeah. Or something similar.

460

: 00:20:03

I want, I want to ask you this because

I don't know as much as I love Godzilla.

461

: 00:20:08

I never really just read up

on a lot of the stuff.

462

: 00:20:10

I just love watching the movies.

463

: 00:20:11

And I love watching the monster

fights. So I don't know,

464

: 00:20:15

other than Rodan and all the

465

: 00:20:17

kind of like the the mainstays Mothra

and stuff like that that you always see,

466

: 00:20:21

the ones that they were talking about

in this movie

467

: 00:20:24

that they showed the crab one,

the one that he goes that attacks

468

: 00:20:28

the Godzilla, goes to get his radiation

from, those they just made up.

469

: 00:20:33

Like,

is that something that's in this world?

470

: 00:20:35

Only they just they just made those up.

471

: 00:20:37

I mean, the lizard,

the the eel that he kills.

472

: 00:20:40

Tiamat is, I think, an actual kind of

I don't know what mythology,

473

: 00:20:45

but it's actually one

mythological monster,

474

: 00:20:48

because Tiamat is also

475

: 00:20:50

a big monster and similar looking in

some of the Final Fantasy games.

476

: 00:20:54

So I think that might be shocking

for Chinese mythology.

477

: 00:20:57

That's not the Jap.

478

: 00:20:58

That's not the dragon from, Shang-Chi

and the legend of the ten Rings.

479

: 00:21:01

It might be the same.

They might have a name.

480

: 00:21:03

It looks in. Yeah. Okay.

481

: 00:21:04

Maybe I know the name TMI is,

I think, part of mythology somewhere.

482

: 00:21:08

Okay,

so it's not so much in you're saying it.

483

: 00:21:11

It exists and other lore,

but not old Godzilla.

484

: 00:21:15

It's.

Yeah, it's not one of the Godzilla kaiju.

485

: 00:21:17

yeah, I can't remember.

486

: 00:21:19

I think his specific

487

: 00:21:22

rogue's

488

: 00:21:22

gallery has a specific name of of monster,

but I can't remember what they call him.

489

: 00:21:26

Cool.

490

: 00:21:26

But yeah, I like

I thought when you were talking about

491

: 00:21:29

how they didn't

have the rights to anybody, I was.

492

: 00:21:31

I thought you were serious. Like you knew,

because that's what it seems like.

493

: 00:21:34

They only, you know,

I and Godzilla, I, I read that that

494

: 00:21:38

that this not,

I think when King of the monsters came out

495

: 00:21:41

that they only were allowed

to use certain certain creatures

496

: 00:21:46

for some reason,

whatever it is, and rights.

497

: 00:21:48

Yeah.

498

: 00:21:48

So the I,

499

: 00:21:49

I think I don't think they have

every single monster that's ever appeared.

500

: 00:21:53

That's why that's why, I said that so.

501

: 00:21:56

Oh, you know what they could do.

502

: 00:21:57

But what was the

what was the old Godzilla one

503

: 00:22:00

where it was the dude

and he controlled the big giant robot.

504

: 00:22:04

Oh, Ultraman,

505

: 00:22:06

I got Ultraman in there.

506

: 00:22:10

Maybe, I don't know.

507

: 00:22:11

I mean, what else can we do here? Like,

who else is he going to fight?

508

: 00:22:13

He's going to fight

another subterranean level in their space.

509

: 00:22:17

Godzilla.

510

: 00:22:18

I mean, at this point,

you're already getting real busy,

511

: 00:22:21

so you might as well,

Mechagodzilla keeps on coming back.

512

: 00:22:25

I actually wasn't a huge fan

of Mechagodzilla in the last one.

513

: 00:22:28

I thought it was kind of too clunky

that they didn't use him enough, though.

514

: 00:22:31

He just. He appears

and he does. That's it. It's one fight.

515

: 00:22:33

And he was the reason

to bring earlier on Kong together.

516

: 00:22:35

Yeah, yeah. But maybe you get it.

517

: 00:22:37

I agreed I could Godzilla,

who's a little more advanced.

518

: 00:22:41

Idra there's a, there's a couple

of other monsters that are really cool.

519

: 00:22:46

There's a plant monster by Planty.

520

: 00:22:48

That's pretty neat.

521

: 00:22:50

And then there was a monster

in the last of, like, the main

522

: 00:22:53

before Godzilla reboot with Godzilla 2000,

there was like,

523

: 00:22:56

another monster that, like, was really.

524

: 00:22:59

It might have actually been violent,

525

: 00:23:00

but it might have been something else

that kick Godzilla's ass and killed him.

526

: 00:23:03

Oh, wow.

527

: 00:23:05

That might be.

528

: 00:23:06

I didn't even I didn't see that one.

529

: 00:23:08

Well, he was kind of already dying.

530

: 00:23:09

That movie was pretty good, where

he's dying of, like, radiation sickness.

531

: 00:23:13

So he's slowly actually melting down.

532

: 00:23:15

He just eats, nuclear reactors

in this one.

533

: 00:23:21

So, I also want to

534

: 00:23:25

I said this to you there

when we were walking on the theater,

535

: 00:23:28

because the end of the movie takes place

that Rio de Janeiro.

536

: 00:23:30

And I said, turn to Butler,

537

: 00:23:31

and then we go, Rio de Janeiro is no more

like like that place is gone.

538

: 00:23:35

Yeah, yeah,

like like not only there has to like,

539

: 00:23:38

I'm not even counting the stuff

540

: 00:23:40

that happened in France and the stuff

that happened in Italy in this film.

541

: 00:23:44

But in Rio, just on its own,

there has to be

542

: 00:23:46

like 2.5 million people

that death, like, just gone.

543

: 00:23:50

And not only that, he blasts

the entire coast

544

: 00:23:55

coastline of of Rio.

545

: 00:23:58

All those hotels like everything.

546

: 00:23:59

Just like in half the, the,

the ice monster just in half

547

: 00:24:05

and like, it's just like,

this is this place is done.

548

: 00:24:08

Like it's just done.

549

: 00:24:09

And the other the.

550

: 00:24:10

Could you imagine living in this world

where these titans live,

551

: 00:24:15

like, exists, like we now like, oh yeah.

552

: 00:24:17

Like we're,

we're podcasting and titans exist.

553

: 00:24:20

And could you just admit, like,

just everything which must be ruins.

554

: 00:24:24

Everything is in ruins.

555

: 00:24:26

Yeah.

So you got to get your gigantor insurance.

556

: 00:24:28

It's the only insurance that covers

Titan attacks.

557

: 00:24:31

I know it's, in the movie.

558

: 00:24:34

I can't remember his name in the movie.

Bryan.

559

: 00:24:36

Tyler, let's, What's the actor's name?

560

: 00:24:39

Brian. Brian.

561

: 00:24:40

Tyree Henry.

562

: 00:24:41

his Bernie.

His character's name is Bernie.

563

: 00:24:44

he's got a podcast,

and he's got he's got a sponsor.

564

: 00:24:47

But then our joke and like, oh,

he gets sponsor.

565

: 00:24:49

I really didn't.

566

: 00:24:51

And he's funny in the movie,

I didn't care.

567

: 00:24:54

I didn't really need that.

He didn't need to be in the film.

568

: 00:24:56

But it's fine.

569

: 00:24:57

I know he's a carryover from the

yeah, he's got some good stuff.

570

: 00:24:59

He's got some good stuff with Dan Stevens.

571

: 00:25:02

Yeah, I think their stuff is good.

572

: 00:25:03

I think that's why it works. Right?

573

: 00:25:05

I think I was kind of glad

that we kind of moved away from the,

574

: 00:25:09

Kyle Chandler, Millie Bobby

Brown stuff from the last two.

575

: 00:25:13

Yeah.

576

: 00:25:13

I feel like they were wrapping up in this

in this last the last one as well.

577

: 00:25:16

Yeah.

578

: 00:25:17

I mean, I just was I didn't care the whole

like the whole her mother's whole.

579

: 00:25:22

I really liked that in the second console

580

: 00:25:24

because I liked making the mother

character a bad guy.

581

: 00:25:26

And she was never like, redeemed.

582

: 00:25:29

She was the villain.

And that's kind of how it worked.

583

: 00:25:31

And I thought that was a really cool

plot point.

584

: 00:25:34

I was just kind of glad

we didn't have to go through that again.

585

: 00:25:37

Like, I just did what I had to do.

There was nothing else to do.

586

: 00:25:39

It's kind of like how we talked about

last week with Ghostbusters Afterlife.

587

: 00:25:42

Like, you've wrapped up those characters,

you can continue the franchise,

588

: 00:25:46

but now it's time to bring some new blood,

and now it's time to explore

589

: 00:25:49

new characters

within that world. Right? Right.

590

: 00:25:51

one like, I mean, we can still keep

going, and I could still can keep talking.

591

: 00:25:56

But I did want to say

one last thing that I liked.

592

: 00:25:59

was I actually

593

: 00:26:00

was cool about the what about the music,

the style of the music.

594

: 00:26:03

like

when they did some of the montage stuff.

595

: 00:26:05

I mean, I thought it was it's

it's it's ridiculous how they get the,

596

: 00:26:10

the, the glove for, Kong is power.

597

: 00:26:16

Yeah. Oh.

598

: 00:26:17

And it and it's here and let's go get it.

599

: 00:26:19

And he and you know, they've,

they've gone into this like secret layer

600

: 00:26:23

and he's like yeah.

601

: 00:26:24

No I'm just going to go fly back a little.

Grab it.

602

: 00:26:26

and like goes gets it.

603

: 00:26:27

And it's just

604

: 00:26:27

and of course it's jet powered and off

and it's automated and all that stuff.

605

: 00:26:31

Like even though that whole area

was destroyed, it's still everything.

606

: 00:26:35

That thing is functional, that thing.

607

: 00:26:36

And clearly another ship

because that's not his original ship.

608

: 00:26:39

No, he only gave a small vehicle.

609

: 00:26:41

It's so it's so like convenient.

610

: 00:26:44

Again, I don't care.

611

: 00:26:46

I like the movie. That scene works

because I like the music.

612

: 00:26:49

I like the song, I like the

I like it's almost like when,

613

: 00:26:52

it's almost like when,

Thor Ragnarok came out

614

: 00:26:55

and they realized

that everyone loved Guardians

615

: 00:26:57

because of, like, the music

in the Guardians of the Galaxy movies.

616

: 00:26:59

And they're like, well, let's make

for fun and happy and put music in here.

617

: 00:27:01

It's almost like it's

a little bit of that. It's a little bit.

618

: 00:27:04

It doesn't take itself so seriously.

619

: 00:27:05

This film, which I think,

I think it works.

620

: 00:27:08

And so I was okay with that.

621

: 00:27:10

I think it's the only way to go.

622

: 00:27:11

I read, a comment that someone has said

it's like the shower era, Godzilla films.

623

: 00:27:15

So, like Smog Monster,

when Godzilla got the big bright Eyes

624

: 00:27:19

and he was more kid friendly,

625

: 00:27:21

like, that's what this movie is.

626

: 00:27:22

If King of the monsters

is more like old school Godzilla,

627

: 00:27:26

or newer school like 1985 Godzilla,

where he's kind of the bad guy

628

: 00:27:30

kind of sort of the bad guy.

629

: 00:27:32

This movie is silly.

630

: 00:27:33

Godzilla just doing whatever.

631

: 00:27:34

Like when I got home, all this was like,

how was the movie?

632

: 00:27:37

I said it was absolutely terrible,

but I loved every second of it.

633

: 00:27:40

But good. Terrible.

634

: 00:27:41

Yeah. No, no was terrible

and exactly the way it was.

635

: 00:27:44

But it's what.

636

: 00:27:45

But that's what we both want. That's.

637

: 00:27:47

But we're walking in

638

: 00:27:48

and I'm like, this better be like a

I want just a good, bad movie.

639

: 00:27:52

Give me this is like,

this is the you know,

640

: 00:27:54

this is the definition

of what a B-movie should be.

641

: 00:27:56

It should be fun.

642

: 00:27:58

I'm not here for any critical acclaim.

643

: 00:27:59

I'm here to have fun and enjoy the kit

644

: 00:28:01

and watch the monster fights

and just laugh at a couple times.

645

: 00:28:03

And that's what we get,

you know, like it's

646

: 00:28:06

it's it's a little refreshing

because so it's

647

: 00:28:10

and it's probably like the last 1520

years, a lot of these movies

648

: 00:28:13

take themselves way too seriously and,

649

: 00:28:16

and but to be fair, there are some ways

they take themselves way too seriously.

650

: 00:28:20

And then there's some movies

that take themselves,

651

: 00:28:22

are two over the top in terms of jokey

and stuff like that, like Thor.

652

: 00:28:26

So even Thunder.

653

: 00:28:27

Yes. Yeah.

654

: 00:28:28

Where it's just like it's it's

not as it's not fun, it becomes annoying.

655

: 00:28:33

I think that another movie

that falls into this,

656

: 00:28:36

even though I do like free Guy

quite a bit free guys,

657

: 00:28:38

but I think free guys a little bit

better than the free copy, but it's fun.

658

: 00:28:42

I, I mean,

659

: 00:28:43

other than Bad Boys three,

I do like bad boys.

660

: 00:28:46

in Bad Boys two.

661

: 00:28:48

And I was excited

also that that was really good.

662

: 00:28:50

No, I'm saying I like it. Yeah.

They're fun.

663

: 00:28:53

Yeah, that's what I want. It's fun.

664

: 00:28:54

But like, three was really good.

665

: 00:28:56

but, I'm excited for for, but, but.

666

: 00:28:59

Yeah,

so I don't know, I'm just kind of going.

667

: 00:29:02

I was just I'll start listening movies

that I like, but I don't want to.

668

: 00:29:05

I don't want to get too down that road.

669

: 00:29:06

is actually is this your favorite

of the Godzilla versus movies

670

: 00:29:10

or the first of these ones?

671

: 00:29:14

Because I still think I like

King of the monsters quite a bit more.

672

: 00:29:18

I think I like, I'd have to.

You know what?

673

: 00:29:20

I'd have to watch them again.

I do like King of the monsters.

674

: 00:29:22

King of monsters has some fun stuff

with, like, the people in the ship.

675

: 00:29:26

so I think

I think some of that stuff is good.

676

: 00:29:30

I think the storyline,

677

: 00:29:32

the mother father family storyline

kind of just drags for me a little bit.

678

: 00:29:35

So that's kind of like where I get

a little annoyed in that.

679

: 00:29:37

So like, I kind of like that

and I kind of like the darker

680

: 00:29:40

kind of tone

while you still get the monster fights.

681

: 00:29:42

But like after Godzilla versus Kong,

this is the only way you could go.

682

: 00:29:45

So I also like this fun.

683

: 00:29:47

There's only two ways you can go.

684

: 00:29:49

You can go of the monsters

kind of darkness, or you can go this way,

685

: 00:29:52

but I think both of them work.

686

: 00:29:53

But I think I kind of lean

more on King of the monsters.

687

: 00:29:56

We probably we

I mean, we didn't have the time.

688

: 00:29:58

That's why

we why we didn't do a lead up for this.

689

: 00:30:00

but maybe the next movie that comes out,

if the next Godzilla film comes out

690

: 00:30:05

and we're still up and running,

which I'm sure we will,

691

: 00:30:08

we could do a lead up for that.

692

: 00:30:10

And then, we could do all these again.

693

: 00:30:11

But yeah, I probably do want to.

694

: 00:30:13

I, I don't my son's at the age

where I don't know if he'll

695

: 00:30:16

get scared watching them,

so I, I'd like to watch them with him,

696

: 00:30:20

but I don't know

if he'll get too scared with them.

697

: 00:30:22

So I have to kind of.

698

: 00:30:23

I have to kind of gauge that.

699

: 00:30:24

But, that's probably where I'll end up

700

: 00:30:25

watching them with him again

or something like that.

701

: 00:30:28

I wanted I want to ask you.

702

: 00:30:30

Oh, the one when we did the live watch,

703

: 00:30:36

we did the

704

: 00:30:36

live watch of the Godzilla 98 to we.

705

: 00:30:40

Is that is that out?

706

: 00:30:41

Do we have that or is that was that,

you know, because we just had fun.

707

: 00:30:44

We had some people watch it on their own

and we talked about it on discord.

708

: 00:30:49

okay. Wait.

709

: 00:30:50

Okay. Because we do that again,

maybe we just we can watch people do that.

710

: 00:30:53

Yeah. Yeah,

totally. Well, we film ourselves.

711

: 00:30:55

We don't film the movie, obviously,

because then we'll get,

712

: 00:30:57

But yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah.

713

: 00:31:00

I feel like if we did that, that'd be,

That might be cool.

714

: 00:31:03

That might be cool. All right. Sweet.

715

: 00:31:05

I mean, I think I,

716

: 00:31:07

I, I mean, I hope anyone watching

this has seen the movie already,

717

: 00:31:10

and I hope,

you know, if you don't agree, that's cool.

718

: 00:31:11

If you if you like it. Awesome.

719

: 00:31:13

I know we're admittedly biased

Godzilla fans.

720

: 00:31:16

so I think we were kind of

we were hopefully optimistic going in.

721

: 00:31:20

I don't think we were expecting,

722

: 00:31:22

you know, I think pretty easily

we would have been like, oh, this stinks.

723

: 00:31:25

So, so yeah, so

724

: 00:31:27

I mean, yeah,

I mean, that's all I mean, I don't have.

725

: 00:31:31

Yeah.

726

: 00:31:31

You're not going into Godzilla

looking for an Oscar worthy film.

727

: 00:31:34

Yeah.

728

: 00:31:35

If you're looking for a really fun time

like this, is this is that.

729

: 00:31:39

It's shut off

your brain. It's a good line.

730

: 00:31:42

Oh, no no no, no, shut off your brain.

I hate that, I hate that phrase.

731

: 00:31:44

Don't shut off your brain.

You should always be.

732

: 00:31:46

You should always be.

Keep your brain open. Me?

733

: 00:31:48

It's a it's a

it's about the it's a B-movie.

734

: 00:31:51

It's a great it's a good update

a lot of: 2024

735

: 00:31:55

It's a great Sunday night film.

736

: 00:31:57

This would be a good Sunday night

movie to good Saturday night.

737

: 00:31:59

Excuse me, Saturday night movie to go to

in the theaters when theaters are hopping.

738

: 00:32:02

you know, go there and then you go out

to eat after, like, stuff like that.

739

: 00:32:06

It's a good one

to watch at home on a Saturday night.

740

: 00:32:08

Like hanging out with the family like it's

it's one of those type of films,

741

: 00:32:11

you know, and there's and I think maybe

because why we react this way to

742

: 00:32:15

it is they're so very little

of those that, you know, it's, it's

743

: 00:32:19

nice to see one, you know, so because

744

: 00:32:22

because there's a reason why I'm always

rewatching stuff from the 80s and the 90s.

745

: 00:32:26

Because because, you know, like,

you know, the older films.

746

: 00:32:28

Because.

747

: 00:32:28

Right, I don't sometimes, you know,

getting that fix, around here right now.

748

: 00:32:33

but you know.

749

: 00:32:34

Yeah. So, Mike,

why don't you tell everybody?

750

: 00:32:36

Because these are not going to be free

for free.

751

: 00:32:39

But these are not going to be for

752

: 00:32:41

are now showings are not going to be

for the general audience.

753

: 00:32:43

So why don't you explain that a little bit

before we get out of here.

754

: 00:32:45

So our live streams were always supposed

to be meant for the Patreon

755

: 00:32:49

tiers only, some of the Patreon tiers.

756

: 00:32:52

So we've we've been doing them

kind of for everybody right now.

757

: 00:32:55

so if you're watching this

758

: 00:32:57

the next day when it comes out, when it's

no longer live, but I'm going to say this

759

: 00:33:00

anyway, you can watch them live up until

I think we've decided mad Max Furiosa.

760

: 00:33:03

So the end of May.

761

: 00:33:04

And after that,

they're going to be just go back,

762

: 00:33:06

go to where they're supposed to be Patreon

only we're letting you guys

763

: 00:33:09

kind of test the waters

if you like our live streams.

764

: 00:33:12

so if you want to kick us on that story

there, that's where they're going to be.

765

: 00:33:15

but we will continue to do now showings.

766

: 00:33:18

They just won't be live for you,

but they'll be put out, afterward.

767

: 00:33:21

But if you want to chat with us,

768

: 00:33:23

watch us live, watch field

yell at me at the beginning of the episode

769

: 00:33:25

like you did right there.

770

: 00:33:26

That's going to be on those live streams,

771

: 00:33:30

that you can watch

if you're a Patreon member, after May.

772

: 00:33:34

but we

have a lot of content coming up as well.

773

: 00:33:36

We're doing all the planet of the apes

774

: 00:33:37

movies going into,

Kingdom of the planet of the apes.

775

: 00:33:41

I think our next, our showing

is League of Ungentlemanly Warfare.

776

: 00:33:45

And, so yeah, the.

777

: 00:33:46

Yep, yep.

778

: 00:33:47

So the week of May, April 22nd, we we,

we don't watch these on like that opening.

779

: 00:33:51

We can watch one of the Monday nights

because there's nobody there.

780

: 00:33:54

We don't like to watch them with people.

781

: 00:33:55

We're to watching them in empty theaters

exactly after work.

782

: 00:33:59

So so you'll probably get that.

783

: 00:34:01

You'll probably

get the live stream on the 23rd.

784

: 00:34:03

that that, Tuesday.

785

: 00:34:05

And then we'll Mike's talking about

786

: 00:34:07

our next lead up

series is the planet of the apes series.

787

: 00:34:09

The new one. We're going to watch you.

Those three of you.

788

: 00:34:11

Those will probably start filtering

that week as well.

789

: 00:34:14

I think these are intimate.

790

: 00:34:15

Yeah, leading up to the May 10th, life.

791

: 00:34:19

Oh, well, the May when it opens. May 10th.

792

: 00:34:20

So, like,

you're thinking like May 13th, it'll

793

: 00:34:22

you'll have a live stream for us for the,

for the new planet of the apes.

794

: 00:34:25

But that'll be after our.

795

: 00:34:28

But the main podcast comes back, right?

796

: 00:34:31

Our first episode May 1st.

797

: 00:34:32

for season 17, we're doing real Steel,

so that'll be May 1st

798

: 00:34:35

at the regular podcast show come out.

799

: 00:34:37

And obviously we're going to

that's going to be a video too.

800

: 00:34:39

So it'll be on YouTube as well.

801

: 00:34:40

and then in turn but you were talking,

but you were talking,

802

: 00:34:44

you were talking like Patreon stuff.

803

: 00:34:48

I was talking Patreon.

804

: 00:34:49

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

805

: 00:34:50

No. Yeah, I just wanted to, but I was

I think I started getting into content

806

: 00:34:53

with you. Yeah,

807

: 00:34:55

but then.

808

: 00:34:55

But the big one, because I know it's a,

it's probably a big lead up series is in

809

: 00:34:59

the summer when we do the alien franchises

before, up until alien, forgetting it.

810

: 00:35:04

Romulus, Romulus. Yep.

811

: 00:35:05

And that'll be all. Patreon.

812

: 00:35:06

All the lead ups will be Patreon.

813

: 00:35:08

And that'll be.

814

: 00:35:09

And we'll be right for everybody.

815

: 00:35:10

Prometheus and of Everest. Predator.

816

: 00:35:12

So we're going to be doing a the,

but it's like those are like 7 or 8 films.

817

: 00:35:16

Yeah. It's like two months of,

two months of leads.

818

: 00:35:18

Yeah. That's, I mean, it's it's exciting.

819

: 00:35:21

It's exciting to kind of go back.

I mean, I always they're on, I watch them.

820

: 00:35:23

I mean, I like to watch them.

821

: 00:35:24

One thing

822

: 00:35:25

that's the thing that I like

about the lead ups

823

: 00:35:26

is we do forgotten cinema and forgotten

films. That's cool.

824

: 00:35:29

But like, Talk About Aliens is like,

I know we said that's not what we wanted,

825

: 00:35:32

but it's also pretty.

826

: 00:35:33

It's kind of fun to, like you said,

go back and talk about stuff, and I do I

827

: 00:35:37

for the lead up for early.

828

: 00:35:38

I want to do

the extended edition of aliens.

829

: 00:35:41

Oh, actually, the longer one. Yeah.

830

: 00:35:43

If I want the turret scene in there,

the turret scenes.

831

: 00:35:45

Yes, yes.

832

: 00:35:48

Right.

833

: 00:35:49

You see the book counting down?

834

: 00:35:50

I just see the aliens screaming.

835

: 00:35:51

That's that's awesome.

836

: 00:35:53

And for those who are not Patreon members,

you can go to Patreon.com,

837

: 00:35:55

backslash, Forgotten Cinema,

and you can see all the tiers there.

838

: 00:35:57

And you can sign up, for whoever

you want to want to do.

839

: 00:35:59

And, you know,

even though we're just talking about

840

: 00:36:01

lead up series and we're talking about,

you know, the, the, the live streams

841

: 00:36:05

that I go there,

then I'm going to go there.

842

: 00:36:06

I think sometime the next two months

are going to go behind those, those tiers.

843

: 00:36:10

There are other stuff

that we're going to do. There's other.

844

: 00:36:12

Mike and I are always kicking ideas around

about doing different things.

845

: 00:36:16

you know, so we're we're we're

the content is going to keep going.

846

: 00:36:19

The continent's going to keep growing.

847

: 00:36:21

And, it's going to be

all movie based, right? Mike?

848

: 00:36:25

All movie based.

849

: 00:36:27

Exactly.

850

: 00:36:27

Except for our baking show,

which is going to be forgotten. Bake.

851

: 00:36:30

And whether, I cannot bake,

I will not pick.

852

: 00:36:32

And that's not happening.

853

: 00:36:33

So just evenly spaced and then I'll cheat

and say, look what I'm,

854

: 00:36:37

But also we have our merch store as well

that's going to open

855

: 00:36:40

probably by the end of this week.

I've been working on it.

856

: 00:36:42

So, if you're a Patreon member,

depending on what tier you are,

857

: 00:36:46

you get tier based coupons every season

and we're going to have seasonal merch.

858

: 00:36:49

We're going to have I'm going

859

: 00:36:50

to rerelease the forgotten horror merch

from last season.

860

: 00:36:54

so just put that out there

until the new season starts

861

: 00:36:56

and we're going to have kind of limited

runs on stuff

862

: 00:36:58

that's kind of themed toward

the season we're in.

863

: 00:37:01

So that's that's kind of cool

and I'm sure filled and I'll be rocking

864

: 00:37:04

forgotten cinema branded mugs

when we get back in the studio.

865

: 00:37:07

Ooh, that's

which is is behind me in the dark,

866

: 00:37:12

which the electrical has just put in the

this morning Butler.

867

: 00:37:14

And then the floor

is being put in tomorrow

868

: 00:37:17

ever so closer

869

: 00:37:19

to kind of getting all this stuff

back on the wall.

870

: 00:37:22

Some posters that we have

that need to go on there,

871

: 00:37:25

some new stuff that needs to go on there.

872

: 00:37:27

so led some LED lights that hopefully

I gotta get to put in there.

873

: 00:37:30

So we're kind of like sprucing

all that up. It's going to be nice. So.

874

: 00:37:33

And this well, I mean a lot of the stuff

that we do in terms of like the lead up,

875

: 00:37:38

the stuff that's easy to do,

like a night like this, right?

876

: 00:37:41

We'll be like, we'll still be like me

from my house, butler from his house.

877

: 00:37:44

But when we start doing the main show,

we start doing that.

878

: 00:37:45

We'll try to do more stuff.

879

: 00:37:47

We're actually in that studio together,

and it'll be a little bit more

880

: 00:37:51

free will and yelling at each other.

881

: 00:37:54

Point

fingers, you know, all that good stuff.

882

: 00:37:56

and you could find us here on TikTok.

We've got cinema.

883

: 00:37:58

We are on Instagram.

884

: 00:38:00

forgotten cinema, possibly forgotten

underscore cinema, underscore pod.

885

: 00:38:04

We're on Facebook.

886

: 00:38:05

Forgotten cinema.

887

: 00:38:06

We have a we have a group on Facebook

called, the lobby,

888

: 00:38:09

that you can join that we kind of,

you know, talk.

889

: 00:38:13

And yes, as Butler says,

I do want to say this.

890

: 00:38:16

Don't forget to like and subscribe.

891

: 00:38:17

But we have had to kind of,

I've had to kind of get the forgotten

892

: 00:38:22

cinema Apple Show from Apple Podcast

893

: 00:38:25

to be attached to my, Apple ID,

which is dumb,

894

: 00:38:30

but I think we're going

to lose the ratings and reviews there.

895

: 00:38:34

So if you've rated

896

: 00:38:35

and review our show before and you notice

that there's there's none of the new one,

897

: 00:38:39

go, please

go back in there and rate and review.

898

: 00:38:40

If you could, that'd be awesome.

899

: 00:38:42

obviously subscribe follow us on Spotify.

900

: 00:38:46

We're everywhere.

We're all over the place.

901

: 00:38:48

I think Mike and I have talked about this

constantly that we started out

902

: 00:38:52

as a podcast in 2019,

and then we ended in: 2023

903

: 00:38:55

We kind of like butts around a little bit.

904

: 00:38:58

And then when we

905

: 00:38:58

when we were coming back for this,

I think one of the things that Mike

906

: 00:39:01

and I both agreed upon

and we've talked about a lot,

907

: 00:39:03

is that we're not just coming back as

a podcast, we're coming back as a brand.

908

: 00:39:06

We have forgotten cinema.

909

: 00:39:08

You know, that's so everything

we do is going to be focused around that.

910

: 00:39:11

And, we're pretty excited about it.

911

: 00:39:13

as you can tell.

I mean, we love talking film.

912

: 00:39:16

We just we just kind of,

913

: 00:39:17

you know, cheesed out over Godzilla

for about half hour or so.

914

: 00:39:21

you know, so thanks for watching.

915

: 00:39:25

Thanks for.
