Welcome back to the Zone Podcast when we are going to do another round of nerdy news. It's your host, jet Blackest Dream, and joining me today is Talos Gundam and Professor Tuck. Without further ado, let's go ahead and get into it Now, starting with movies, of course. Of course, demon Slayer, season 5, the final run of the beloved anime known as the Infinity Castle arc, will be released as a trilogy of films. A report went deeper into the issues affecting the MCU's Blade. A version was aiming to shoot last year was set in the 1920s, according to sources, and featured Mia Goth as a vampire villain named lilith who wanted the blood of blaze. Daughter, yeah, daughter, oh.
Speaker 1:The days of heading to the red kiosk to rent a dvd or video game are ending as red box and now that after 22 years it is officially shutting down, I'm surprised it didn't shut down sooner. But I'm kind of sad because I did rent some movies from Redbox. So I have like some sentimental value towards the service, but kind of surprised it didn't phase out sooner. I don't know, I'm not trying to be the villain about it, I'm not trying to be the bad guy about it. I'm just saying I'm kind trying to be the villain about it. I'm not trying to be the bad guy about it, I'm just saying I'm kind of surprised it kept going as long as it did. But hey, here we are.
Speaker 1:Anyways, cate Blanchett she bought a PS5 and played Borderlands to prepare for a role in the film, and I love that. I love it when the actors actually do the fucking homework. You already know, uh, henry cavill and robert pattinson. When they get ready for their role, they get fucking ready. I always appreciate that uh, trailer drops for thunderbolts and captain america brave new world has dropped in the past month. I didn't really see the trailer, but all I know is that, okay, the uh, the main players are getting together and it's like they are hired to go after a single target, but not as a team, but more like, uh, they've been approached separately and then this happened to link up and like oh, we have the same target. I guess how that's gonna play out, um, we'll see. Now pixar sent out a message of joy and gratitude as they thank the fans for making inside out to the highest grossing anime film after it reached 1.4 billion worldwide congratulations. Deadpool and wolverine clawed his way to the box office victory this weekend well, past weekend, with the massive 205 million domestic opening, while globally it was the biggest R-rated opening weekend ever at 438.3 million. Very good, very good, well deserved.
Speaker 1:Here's something that was interesting, like a new movie coming up. Uh, megan fox is starring in a life as a lifelike, self-aware android in the upcoming sci-fi thriller called subservience. Uh, in this film, a struggling father buys a robot to help around the house while his wife is sick, and things get out of hand when the android cyborg whatever they want to call it becomes obsessed with him, leading to chaos and danger for the family, and it promises a mix of sexual tension and violent fallout. I'm like this reminds me of so many movies I could do is like I think, um, that megan sequel is trying to go for the same thing. And this also reminds me of how, in the last nerdy news special or, um, some other review that Kogagatsu was on, where he was talking about Smart House, now there's always this AI woman acting for the main guy, and then, next thing, you know, shit like that.
Speaker 1:We'll see how it plays out when it comes out on September 13th. I had to say the last bit, the good bits for last, because you know how it is. It's Talo's favorite franchise, the MCU, where Fantastic Four is now titled the Fantastic Four First Steps, and it will premiere in theaters on July 25th 2025. Something that Professor Tuck would probably appreciate. Jessica Alba, who starred in Sue Storm in the 2005 version and its sequel, is up for reprising as the Invisible Woman in the MCU, so maybe like a what if?
Speaker 1:praise him be like a what if? Multiverse story thing going on.
Speaker 2:So we'll see you know that's my baby mama. You gotta add that on the end that she is my baby mama.
Speaker 1:Dr Uma, forgive me, okay here's the real meat and potatoes in the movie portion of the nerdy news special Robert Downey Jr.
Speaker 2:coming back to the in the movie portion of the nerdy news special.
Speaker 1:Robert Downey Jr is coming back to the MCU as Dr Doom, and it was recently rediscovered that a video featuring Kevin Feige and Iron man director John Favreau posted in May of this last year, where two creatives remember the early days of the MCU and how RDJ had already auditioned to play Dr Doom in the 2005 version of Fantastic Four. So this is what I was saying when they did that reveal there was like mixed reviews, like not mixed reviews, mixed feelings to where some people was all for. Some people were like why are they all using the same actor? I'm like, hey bro, hey bro, listen, we way past that at this point. Like if they're adding marvel movies outside of the um mcu as mcu canon, bro, we way past that at this point. Like I don't know why you're getting mad about it now. But, um, this was like at this point. Yeah, like there's going to be people that's going to be coming back into MCU as a different role. So get used to that.
Speaker 1:Oh, and the Russo brothers. They're confirmed to be directing both Avengers Doomsday, which released in May 2026, and Avengers Secret Wars, which released in May 2027. The Fantastic Four gang will also make appearances in these films. That is it for the movie section. So this time around let's go with Professor Tuck. First of all, thank you for being on.
Speaker 2:I see your campaign for president in 2028 how you feel about the movie portion so far well, let me just say for the fans out there that Decided to vote for me and want me to be president In 2028, right? I want y'all to know that I will make sure that these anime studios Come out with new anime every year, every year. Alright, you ain't gotta wait Five years for the season of that random anime that you picked up at the last second. Keep watching the other seasons. We're going to have more, but I want to talk about Demon Slayer.
Speaker 1:I know I missed the beginning, but Demon Slayer, season 5, right, oh no, you came in like that was like the very first thing, so you came in at the perfect time.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I know, in like that was like the very first thing, so you came in at perfect time. Yeah, I know, but I I want to get some clarity on it, so there ain't gonna be no season five.
Speaker 1:Yeah, pretty much like season four, the one that passed with the hashira training arc. That's it right, we're done. No more tv format wow, wow yeah that's crazy.
Speaker 2:I thought it going to have the films in addition to season five.
Speaker 1:No, I mean you would think so, but not this time around. They're closing it on the movie, Kind of like they did with Mugen Train. But I thought they were going to do the same thing with Mugen Train, Like make a TV format after the zombies movies. But I guess not.
Speaker 2:And what happened to the blade that was supposed to come out.
Speaker 1:Man listen.
Speaker 2:Makai Pfeiffer. What is his name? Makala.
Speaker 1:Marsha Ali, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:Merchantshire, merchantshire.
Speaker 3:No listen listen, listen.
Speaker 1:They are complaining about the script, how there's like little action and that to a point to where we don't even know this movie is happening, and like, hey, if you've seen Deadpool Wolverine, there's a joke that's related to Blade that y'all might appreciate.
Speaker 2:Oh no, I ain't going to see it till tomorrow.
Speaker 1:Oh well, I'm not going to say any more than that.
Speaker 2:I got me a little whoop-de-whoop, I'm sliding with it. But, yeah, man bring. I got me a little whoop-de-whoop I'm sliding with. But, um, yeah, man, bring back Wesley Snipes like they tripping. He saved the MCU before he can save it again. I mean yeah yeah and bring back Captain America, since we bringing back other people.
Speaker 1:Oh, ron Tello, did you see Deadpool Wolverine?
Speaker 3:oh, no, not yet oh okay, so I really need to shut up now, okay however, I will say that you know, while I haven't gotten technical, I know a little bit, especially when it came to, because a lot of people didn't realize how many characters and cameos Are in Deadpool vs Wolverine. Once again, if you have not seen it, you need to go see it, because, yeah, there are a lot Of freaking cameos.
Speaker 1:A lot.
Speaker 3:Where people are like wait a minute, so this character's back, yeah, they're back, so that means their group is back. So just saying, just saying Y'all should check.
Speaker 1:There's cameos that you could expect and there was cameos that was like a complete swerve. Believe me, believe me, believe me. Go watch it.
Speaker 3:Anything else you want to add on to movies my thing here is relatively a no, I'm not trying to stay long on it Because, believe me, I'm about tired of some of these quote unquote fans out here. Folks, please, for the love of God, stop with the oh. Oh, it's the hook. Why is RDJ playing Doctor Doom? We don't need Iron man, it's Doctor Doom and all this other stuff I'm with that.
Speaker 3:I'm with that. Like like, legit, it's the freaking comics. Like we've had these variants and then they're still playing once again. Did anybody forget we're in the Multiverse of Madness still Mm-hmm. Like like, did y'all forget we are in the multiverse of madness? It's there. You're going to get these variations, just like they're variants Of Kang the Conqueror, which a lot of, A lot of folks I'm mad about Because they could have. Just no, they couldn't. Don't worry, this man is coming back. He may not be Kang, but he's going to come back as somebody else. They already had that lined up.
Speaker 1:Yeah, see, they're already talking about what's going on with.
Speaker 1:Johnson and Major for points where most people are saying, hey, man, listen, listen, all you have to do is just lay low for a few years, they'll blow over. You can come back to the MCU. We kind of forget that. Oh yeah, you did that kind of like with rdj. It's like rdj went to jail and all that shit, like he got, uh, come back. So I'm like you good john, you good man, just lay low for a little while how are we supposed to just forget two movies though?
Speaker 2:you just ain't make sense now, unless they tie it in somehow well I curious how they're going to do that.
Speaker 1:Well, technically they were, because, let's just say, if you're a comic book head, kang and Doctor Doom had a Weird relationship, you can say, yeah, they need to tie that shit in and make it all pretty. Like he need to stomp on in and make it all pretty Like he need to stomp on them or something.
Speaker 1:It only take two seconds. You know what, like I wouldn't be surprised if Jonathan Majors like surprises all by showing up in Doomsday and Secret Wars. But who knows? But we just know that Dr Doom is pretty much the big bad of the multiverse saga now.
Speaker 2:So tell me about this dr doom is he like? What level threat?
Speaker 1:omega, like god, level like magic and technology, like this man pretty much no.
Speaker 3:Thanos is not shit to goddamn Doom. What you mean? Thanos needs shit to Doom.
Speaker 1:Like Bro, compared to Thanos.
Speaker 2:Doctor Doom is playing 40 Tiff.
Speaker 3:So let me put it to you Aspect right, because the version that we're getting, I want it to be known, the version that we're getting, I want it to be known, the version that we're getting, and I hope they go this route Just to fucking spite the fuckers.
Speaker 1:The naysayers.
Speaker 3:They are giving us the Variation of Tony Stark, that where Tony Stark and Doctor Doom switched minds, they switched bodies. Basically, doom took over Stark's body, kind of like what.
Speaker 1:Octavia did with Spider-Man, with Superior and Spider-Man.
Speaker 3:The freaking suit that's going to appear is going to be one that is so Iron Man-esque, I hope, to the point where niggas be like ain't no fucking way. Nigga be mad, nigga be motherfucking mad because Doom is that guy. Doom is that guy. Don't get me wrong. Doom gives ass whoops because his plans fail. Don't get me wrong. Doom gives ass whoops, but in the me wrong. Doom gives ass what Because his plans fail. Don't get me wrong. Doom gives ass what. But at the same token, doom makes shit work. Doom makes things happen that you would never think would happen right now. So, real quick, and I'll leave it as is, because I don't know if it's in the book section. I meant to throw it into the book section but, like I said, I got busy as a blade In a recent run of the comics.
Speaker 3:There's a recent run where we have not infamous Iron man, but that's the one that we're getting. There's a recent run in the comics Blood Hunt, if you will. I believe it's the right name Blood Hunt. Right now, doctor Doom is the sorcerer she is. Yeah, that should let you know how badass he is right, he did that to help Save the world, but in Doom fashion he was supposed to give it back In Doom fashion. He said Fuck that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like keep in mind, tuck, that even though Dr Doom is mainly a villain, every now and then he has an anti-hero Phase where like, okay, I'll help y'all Out, but only if it like Coincides with my agenda.
Speaker 3:Doom has always been a person to be like. I will take over the world.
Speaker 1:He never does anything for no reason. That's how I feel he is.
Speaker 3:Doom is always that one that's just trying to rule the world. He's trying to take over, he's not trying to destroy it.
Speaker 1:He already got his own country, by the way.
Speaker 3:Yeah, so if something comes in To where it wants to destroy the world and everything else, then yeah, it has a problem With Doom, because Doom is like that's not how this is going to go. But yeah, this is going to be fun. But that's all I want to just throw out the tidbits of. That's just how powerful Doom is at the current moment. Doom is now being Sorcerer Supreme and, being that, he has magic upon magic upon magic. Yeah.
Speaker 1:That's me. That's why I was saying bro Doctor is like one of my favorite of all time. Like, for once, I agree with ign when they say that he is like the fourth um ranked fourth in top 100 villains of all time and marvel's greatest villain. You know what? I agree with y'all. For once I agree with y'all. Like Magneto almost beat him, but nah, I'd give it to Doom. Doom is so cold. Doom is definitely Now. Any more things on movies before we go to television?
Speaker 3:It's always sticking to television. Go hit television. I'm sticking Television, it's always sticking Television. Yeah, go ahead, go ahead. Television, I'm ready.
Speaker 1:Alright, for starters, season three of the HBO original series Euphoria goes into production in January 2025. Shout out to Koa Terra. I know you're moving on to better things, but it's reminding of you when you were on the first few seasons of the Zone podcast. Beastars will receive a Final season in December. Letterkenny will end after the 12th Season. Season 2 of Trigon Stampede will be the last Season of the reboot and it's going to be Named Trigon Stargaze the Seven Deadly Sins For Knights of the Apocalypse, season 2, it will premiere on October 6th. Soul Operators is coming back with a Season 5 on August 12th on Hulu. By the way, even though Paramount Plus isn't moving forward with the Halo TV show, amblin, xbox and 343 Industries, they're still trying to attempt to shop around, see who will take the Halo, see who's gonna pick it up, and some say Christopher Nolan is saying that he might be interested in directing and whatnot. I mean he did do the Batman movies, but outside of that.
Speaker 1:I don't know, I have to see it to believe it. Anyways, another show that's not going anywhere. According to a report on the alleged toxic and bullying and manipulative and retaliatory behavior of the Umbrella Academy showrunner, steve Blackman, the Horizon Zero Dawn TV show is not going anywhere with Netflix. So I'm like that's a shame. That's a shame. Anyways, what is going forward is two more seasons of Invincible and two more seasons of has Been Hotel. Season three and season four have respectively been confirmed by these two shows. I am all for it. Now, all right. Images of the Fairly OddParents sequel series Fairly OddParents A New Witch have been revealed. The fairly odd parent sequel series uh, fairly odd parent, a new witch have been revealed. There's some returning, returning characters such as mr crocker, vicky aj and adult poop, who is now going by perry, as in perry winkle, and I'm like bro perry got tripped. I'm like he's just, he's doing a fucking like cane and whatnot. Looking like hey, uh, let me put you on on game. Well, man, like, uh, you know, you like. Yeah, I'm feeling it.
Speaker 3:I feel like I like, hey, I might watch it, I might actually watch this now, um, a couple more things and we'll be done with television.
Speaker 1:So season two of squid game is finally arriving on netflix on december 26th, with a third season already confirmed at the final. Uh, that will be coming whenever, like I don't know exactly. Let's maybe next year or afterwards, because if we're already um hearing about third season that they might put it in production like as soon as they're done with season two, maybe wrap that up right before December 26th and then We'll probably have Season 3 either already in production or Maybe in January they start with season 3 and then we might get it late next year. Speculations, all speculations, anyways. Season 5 of next year speculations, all speculations, anyways. Season five of the boys have been confirmed as the final season and is planned by the showrunner. It will be coming in 2026. Um, by the way, um, the showrunner had added that no one is safe from this coming season, and I would say it's better for it, because at this point that was set up for it all. I'm like, yeah, I'm, I'm smelling death in this season like.
Speaker 1:but who? That's the question. Uh, gen b season two is also in production for a 2025 release window. And no, they will not be recasting the late Chance Perdomo who was in Jambi and also Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. You remember Ambrose from that show? Yeah, that was him. Same guy. Yeah, he's not. They're not recasting Andre. So, yeah, oh, it's out.
Speaker 1:The Boys is also getting a prequel series called Bot Rising. Bot Rising Getting tongue-tied sometimes. It will give a unique look at a more vulnerable Bot, since the series is set in the 1950s, and it will be starring Jensen Ackles as Soldier boy and ayah cash as stormfront slash. Liberty and bought will lack the power and influence that you will see in the mainline show and the absence of social media. So that means that whenever something fucked, they're not gonna get like canceled or anything, for it's like it's the 50s, like they just went down the road and like what casualty, what, what? Um, the wrong way to use healing magic. A second season has been announced. I don't know when exactly it's gonna come out, but I do know that Black Butler is also getting a new season Adapting the Emerald Witch arc, and that's coming in 2025. So that is it for television. Let's start this off with television time. How are you feeling about this chunk?
Speaker 3:Alright, um, come on. So, as far as Television goes, as long as you vote for me Once again Right now, it's lackluster this month For me, and the only reason why I'm saying Is because during this time Now don't get me wrong Euphoria, yeah, I'm ready for it, I'm definitely ready for it, but there's already stuff out that relatively, has more beneficial value than relatively, anything new, like, once again, house of Dragons. If you have not checked out House of Dragons, y'all need to. House of Dragons is the shit. House of Dragons is the shit. And before folks ask me Talos you watching it? No, I don't have Max. However, what I do is one, I bring it Two. I kind Max Two, I kind of get the little synopsis beforehand. See, I'll have Max in, maybe about another. I'll say maybe about another month or so, then I'm going to catch up. So far, so far.
Speaker 2:You ain't missed nothing but one episode man, yeah like all night. Everything else has been tragic like everything else has been tragic.
Speaker 3:It's not, everything else has been tragic.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like I was like kind of surprised. Like what did I tell you? Like I'm such a dragon.
Speaker 3:Nah, but that most recent episode about them dragons pulling up yeah, that shit what your boyfriend was like. Hey, yo look, look, come outside. We just want to talk to you really quick.
Speaker 1:I'm scared to come outside.
Speaker 3:Oh man, we just want to talk to you. I'm out and play. We just want to talk to you really quick. You know no hard feelings but, like I said, there's other things out right now. Like I said, I'm like, don't get me wrong, I'm looking forward to the newer things coming up. You know some new anime that we've gotten confirmation for. We got some new seasons. Folks. I'm still hyped for no Game, no Life, the fact that it's finally happening after all this damn time. We getting another season.
Speaker 1:Hold on. I thought it was like an event that was going to give us information about it, but I didn't think of Hold on Hold on.
Speaker 3:That got confirmed, that leaked, that got leaked. I'm sorry to say that got leaked. They tried to literally shut that leak down. However, folks were way too hype and y'all know how ready the 4chan go Once something gets said. Then we go and look. Folks looked and was like wait, no, this is confirmation, we're getting an actual second season. This is not a movie to say, oh, we're sorry, no, we're getting another season, alright, alright. So again, believe me, dallas is ready, dallas is ready. But what about you, professor? What's up? How you feeling about the TV?
Speaker 2:I want to start from the beginning, because so you're not voting for me.
Speaker 3:First off, you know by now. Don't ask me to vote for you. Don't ask me to vote for you, don't ask me questions you could be my running mate, dan.
Speaker 2:You know what I mean.
Speaker 3:Hell no.
Speaker 2:Dan, you don't want to be my running mate.
Speaker 3:Fine God is not here to mate.
Speaker 2:Fine, don't you dare it's tucking JB 2028 we going in, but, um, yeah, I'm excited for euphoria. Euphoria is always great shout out to Drake. But uh, invincible is always great. Shout out to Drake, but uh, invincible being confirmed for season 3 and 4 is definitely dope Like, without a shadow of a doubt.
Speaker 1:I thought the new suit is kind of weird, though, like, really Like, just the blue and the black. I'm like the yellow, kind of.
Speaker 3:Man, this makes me feel like it's just another. It's starting to look like a whole another superman knockoff. This is why it's not like I I'm I'm excited. That's why.
Speaker 1:That's why I'm not relatively excited that's the thing like I told people like if you watch invinciblevincible, and I told people hey, they were asking, like how would you Describe the Biltromites? And I told them hey, man, listen, the Biltromites Are basically Kryptonians. If they acted more like Saiyans.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's a great man. That's a great synopsis.
Speaker 3:I mean, look, you've never lied like you're not lying. They're basically Kryptonians of Kryptonians, acting like Saiyans.
Speaker 2:Yeah, if you could clone Vegeta like a thousand times, like yeah.
Speaker 3:There you go, right there. If you clone Vegeta a thousand times, there's your entire species right there.
Speaker 2:Everybody mad and everybody saying they're the prince of all Saiyans and they get mad at each other.
Speaker 1:Mm, and everybody saying they're the prince of all things and they get mad at each other, mm-hmm, yeah. So I'm like just imagine like, okay, people fans, like even in the comics, where, like the whole thing with Superman like, uh-uh, it's too good to be true. There's no way this guy's like all good with all that power he got going on. There's no way he's just here to save the world and whatnot. He's up to something, and then it's like not invincible. They really play on that parts where I'm like, yeah, they really up to something. All them built for myself up to something, except mark, like he's just you know half human, whatnot. And I'm like hold on, hold on, hold on. If, if I made that analogy, does that make Marth go on? Wait, does that make fucking Omni-Man go on? You know what I'm done, oh, you know.
Speaker 2:So yeah, like damn who's Hercule, I digress. But yeah, I definitely need to watch Hasbro Hotel. I know y'all have told me a thousand times it's on my list, I promise.
Speaker 3:Please, that is something that I'm just I'm waiting to talk about this.
Speaker 2:You know I love musicals Anything with some music in it. I'm a little confused on the Fairly Oddparents too, so Hoof.
Speaker 3:Is not, perry. We're not talking about that. That right there got on my nerves. We're not talking about that. Alright.
Speaker 2:I don't know if Hoof was transitioning or not. I didn't know. No, it's simply the whole thing of Transitioning or not.
Speaker 3:I just I didn't know. No, no, no, no, no.
Speaker 3:It's simply the whole thing of the the whole concept of hey, hey, because Poof quote unquote transitioned which one. It was all right, it's fine and dandy. Poof can be as flamboyant as he wanna be. Poof got style. So you know, that's fine and dandy. But my thing is, because Poof came out, the way Poof came out, literally Nickelodeon was like no, we can't call Poof gay, or what was the words that they said that they couldn't use. I forgot what the hell it was. Because, quote unquote, it's a slur against gay but, however, in another country.
Speaker 3:No, no, no, no, in another country this word, I forget what it was. I'll have to go back and look, because one of my brothers told me I'm pretty sure it's the F word.
Speaker 1:You know the French word for cigarette.
Speaker 3:If it was that one, that's still stupid.
Speaker 2:But in the original manuscript, like, didn't Cosmo have proof? Yeah, yes, oh, yeah, okay, I was trying to remember that universe.
Speaker 1:The male have the kids yeah, yeah okay, you know what is Nicola really exploring gender politics now? But then again I'm like wait a minute. Cosmo gave birth to Pooh, so I'm like, nah, we passed that part now the simple fact of the simple fact of right.
Speaker 3:The simple fact of it's like hey, you know relative, once again, I don't care about it, I didn't, I didn't care Like poof, do you? Do you poof? Do you Like? You know what I'm saying? Be you, be as flamboyantly possible as you can be, Nobody can tell you otherwise. My thought process is just that you know, legit, it's certain things that have come out or being done. That's just like A. Either A, you're doing what is known as too much, or B, you're doing relatively Stumps that you see in your fucking web. One and two Like why miss them? But be careful why? That's all I'm saying I agree.
Speaker 2:So the Boys is on season five but I am on season two. I just want to know for my own clarity G&V's going to continue, but season own clarity GMV is going to continue but season 5 of the boys is going to be the last one. Are they going to be in GMV? Are they going to do pop ups?
Speaker 1:that's a good question because GMV is coming out before season 5 of the boys, so we might get some pop ups in GMV to where it's going to tie in. It's going to be like the boys season 4.5, essentially.
Speaker 2:Okay, that's not too bad, then, and I'm assuming GMV is like they choose them or something. It's going to be like Justice League and Young Justice.
Speaker 1:Yeah, pretty much.
Speaker 2:Oh okay, that's crazy. I bet they're going to wow too.
Speaker 1:Oh, oh, oh. That's crazy, but I bet they more wild too, oh oh, oh. Get to season three.
Speaker 2:Because I just realized in season two Homelander got like a baby somewhere, like, oh man, that's going to be great because he already crazy. And I'm only on season two. That gets crazy and the wrong way to use healing magic. I'm on there on season two. Yeah, that gets crazy and the wrong way to use healing magic. I'm so excited, I'm very excited because, like, I need to know what happened. And my baby mama you know she's a little evil, but you know well she ain't really evil, she's just mean. I'm a sucker for green too, ever since Shego.
Speaker 1:Okay, so you know what? I don't even blame you for that, because, like something about Poison Ivy from that one Batman movie, I'm like that's a fact.
Speaker 3:That's a fact who must have.
Speaker 2:And I'm currently watching the new season Of Black Butler, so I was waiting until it finished and now I'm Rewatching it. But, yeah, I'm excited for a lot of this man.
Speaker 1:I did like that season.
Speaker 3:It was short yeah, but I did like it, this new series, this new reboot of what's the name of them, with the Looch that one. All Hail the Looch oh right Britannia. Yeah, the Looch Beat.
Speaker 2:It's a new season.
Speaker 3:It's a new reboot. The new beat. Huh, it's a new season. Yeah, what the hell came up? It's a new reboot. It's like Reboot. I want to say like a.
Speaker 1:Did we go on Disney Plus yet?
Speaker 3:Yes, okay, so you know how, okay, so you know how, basically and the reason why I'm calling it a reboot is because, basically, certain things- are getting rewritten. Your boy is back, by the way. Yeah, certain things are getting re-read, so that's how it's going.
Speaker 2:Oh, it's not. So the original is canon, or?
Speaker 3:The original is still canon. Don't get me wrong, it's still canon, but it's just like I guess it's an alternate timeline.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like, think of it like a canonical reboot, like it's still canon, like the old shit is still canon, but it's more like oh, okay, it's like a soft reboot to where, like we're gonna kind of sort of pretend the loose didn't die, kind of like with Blue Exorcist Season 2. Kind of like with Black Bolt Season 2. It's like okay, let's just pretend that part never happened and then we just keep it pushing.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 3:That makes sense. Yeah, y'all was about to say this, this thing about Black Buck. What's he supposed to get? He's in school.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we fucked that up. We gonna pretend that whole season Never happened.
Speaker 3:Yeah, it's just like they're just saying Okay, hey, you know, this whole season Never happened. What? Yeah, yeah it died.
Speaker 2:They drop a new episode Every week or they drop the whole season.
Speaker 3:I think they're doing A new episode Every week.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they did the weekly thing, but it's already done oh it's done. Yeah, it's done.
Speaker 2:Oh man, I'm going to watch that. I'm going to scratch everything I'm watching and watch it. All hell to lose.
Speaker 3:So yeah, it's like I said. That's the reason why I say like don't get me wrong.
Speaker 1:No, hold on. Hold on, wait a minute, honestly. Once you get to Book of the Atlantic, that changes everything. Everything changes at Book of the Atlantic. I swear to God. Bet I'm not going to spoil it for you, but oh, that was a big swerve. When I saw that Real big swerve, I'm like you Really Well. Nah, I can kind of see it, but I didn't think you were going to be the big bad. I didn't see that coming. That one, yeah, okay, we got anything else on TV.
Speaker 3:Nah, you good Go ahead.
Speaker 1:What's next? Gaming? So Zenless Zone Zero is considered an instant hit by being one of the most played games on playstation upon release. The first descendant has hit 10 million unique players in its first week, blowing away all expectations. Uh, juno arrived to overwatch on august 20th. She's fun, by the way, I like playing her. They had that little three-day free trial window going on. She's fun. Warner Bros Games they're acquiring the developer of Multiverse. So kind of like in the same vein with Mortal Kombat, they're just going to have Multiverse under their umbrella now too.
Speaker 1:Stardew Valley creator pledges to never charge for post-launch content in any of his games. You know what? I highly commend that I. I respect that. I do like stand on business all right and uh, hours played on game pass for the fallout franchise increased nearly five times over in the quarter over quarter after the debut of the prime video series. Like, oh yeah, like bro. Let me tell you like I was kind of fucking with fallout at first, but then when I watched the show I'm like I understand now and then I get that now I can see the surge and playing the game because one of those things where follow is fun but it's more like I don't get what's going on here, but then you watch the show. I'm like, oh, now I get the appeal. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, okay, uh, anyways, uh, three more things and I'll be for um gaming. Uh, boulders gate 3 still manages 100 000 concurrent players since its launch in last august. Very good, like our I said it before, I say it again larian studios. Y'all have my full respect how y'all handle all this? K3.
Speaker 1:Play-by-play studios, founded by former EA staff, spoke with IGN about their new run-based character-driven spiritual successor to NBA Street title. The Run got next. Successor to NBA Street title the Run got next. And, man, I wish Coco Gasol was on there, because we were just talking about how. If there was any sports game that I could replay, it would be NBA Street, because the way they stylized basketball I'm like I was fucking with that game for real. Oh, last one Apparently, video game actors are going on strike because of AI protections, and I don't think.
Speaker 3:Y'all got anything to add on? Let's talk about it First things first. Cool, simple, sweet. This to the creator and developer of Stardew Valley you, a motherfucking real one. I hope more people learn to do the things that you do. Hell yeah, because not charging for DLC when basically it was already supposed to be a part of the game and you're like no, they bought the game. Why am I going to charge them for the extra content when the extra content is already in them? We're just doing updates to unlock it.
Speaker 1:Here you are pretty much like oh, you're making them pay extra for an incomplete game.
Speaker 3:That's evil and greedy that part, so so on. That one definitely Like that one. Right there is most definitely the whole of hey, yo, you know shit. I am very much so proud. I'm happy I triple Z real quick Triple Z. If you ain't played it yet, I'm going to tell you right now. You're missing out.
Speaker 1:Bro, listen, I got Grace, I got the new girl Julian. They are fun. Oh my God. See, look, if you play Genshin Impact, imagine Genshin Impact, but with more style and more of a more. How can I put this? Yeah, they have like w engines and whatnot, but it's like just something about it to where, like, I like the system the way it works, a little bit better than genshin. It's like unlike genshin. Uh, z3 makes me want to jump back into the game. Like, not just like. Oh well, you know, you just playing the game, you just gonna burn out.
Speaker 1:Anyway, no, no, this is bitch Like oh, my god like with Ambie, with fucking Anton, with fucking Sokaku and all these other players, bro, like what can I tell you, man? I just feel like this is the one where I'm like that's why we're going to do a full review on Z3 and First Descendant coming up and I'm going to go into full detail about how I'm feeling about the game. But oh, I love it.
Speaker 3:Look, so for me as well. Z3,. I love it, I love it. I love it. Hands down Now. First Descendant, however, this Warframe it's basically this Warframe Slash Apex Legends left out. This one right here, this one right here. It was all right in the beginning to me, but yeah, oh, when we talk about this, yeah, you know just to add on to it like a little bit more news on first ascended.
Speaker 1:um, some people are a little perturbed by how many people are playing as Bunny specifically, and I'm like I don't see a problem here. I don't see a problem here. And the second thing is they were saying like, oh well, they're copying on Destiny 2. We gotta sue them.
Speaker 1:I'm like man, listen, I mean, I don't even fucking know what to say to that. I mean, think about it. The same claims were said about Power World and Pokemon's World oh well, they're yet to look into the whole copyright infringement thing's world. Like, oh well, they're yet to look into the whole copyright infringement thing. So I'm like, let it be what it is Like. I mean, come on, dog Like who's still playing. No, no, no, I'm not gonna even be that mean, but I mean I'm not hating.
Speaker 3:It is what it is. Look, yeah, outside of those two, I can go forever on those two Juno, me and my Brethren also my best friend. We played, we tested her out. Juno Is If you are a more main and you're looking for somebody else in the support category to play, as that's your wet dream right now.

Speaker 3:That's your wet dream, because that one there oh, oh, I promise you now, I promise you now they're going to win the player base is going to force them to nuke her. They're going to have to hurt her Because if they don't, everything, that's ooh. She boosts everybody. Yeah, matter of fact. Quote unquote I'm sorry, let's try it again. She boosts everything, everything, everything, everything. I literally played with her on the team. Me and my brother swapped up because I was playing her at first, because I typically play support.
Speaker 1:I was going to say sometimes we got to be the hero that needed not.
Speaker 3:I literally went to DPS, right he played. He put up the little thing that makes you run faster. I shot my rip tire through it. My rip tire got an extreme speed boost and a fuck Two damage.
Speaker 1:I want you to know.

Speaker 3:Yeah, once again, ladies and gentlemen, the Mecca manager has to give you some house rules. I don't want to hear shit if you get your ass dumped on. I don't want to hear shit if you sat down and you get trick shot. Get good bitch, get good. Ain't nobody got time for that baby and that wine and shit. You knew what the fuck this was when they said NBA Street was coming back out.
Speaker 1:Oh, you tired of me juking you. You better work on your footwork.
Speaker 3:Exactly Work on your motherfucking footwork. I don't want to hear shit. I don't want to hear that. You got to watch those hips, man Nah nah, remember, I give it back to you, go ahead.
Speaker 1:That's all I was going to say.
Speaker 2:I wanted to say we need NBA Street and NFL Street back. I remember vividly being in class on my PSP playing NFL Street Wow, I'm talking about Michael Vick was the truth. You hear me? I'm getting Michael Vick off the top and I got Big Head Allen Iverson in NBA Street. You know what I mean? He was so fast. What's crazy is Steph Curry on there? Gonna be a monster oh. Lebron.
Speaker 1:LeBron James that's gonna be crazy.
Speaker 2:I mean LeBron, yeah, king James, that's going to be crazy. Dang Fucking A. They got to have Kobe on there. They got to.
Speaker 3:Absolutely, I'm making Team USA the roster. Oh, they got to do like a.
Speaker 1:Oh, that'll be dope In memory of Kobe.
Speaker 3:Like you know, that's why I said I'm making.
Speaker 1:Team USA's roster.
Speaker 2:Kobe got to be the final boss, bro, I'm making Team USA's roster.
Speaker 3:I don't want nobody to say shit else to me. Hey look.
Speaker 2:That's disrespectful. Hold on.
Speaker 1:Hold on. Can you imagine you get to the final boss, the final game, and then, for some reason, the clouds in the sky part and this heavenly elevator calm down?
Speaker 2:and here come.
Speaker 1:Kobe with a basketball you ready to play?
Speaker 2:It's 2-on-2,. Man Kobe and Gianna man it's 2-on-2. It's going to be dope though.
Speaker 1:Once again written in power to you. Kobe Facts. Anything else under gaming.
Speaker 2:I do want to just say that the beta test for the new Quidditch game is currently out. It's currently out, and if I knew anybody that was playing it, they would probably say it was dope, but you don't.
Speaker 3:I can give you first-hand experience on that one. Yeah, it was dope, because I have a brother who literally got a chance and lucky motherfucker.
Speaker 1:I'm wanting a beta key too, but I didn't get it.
Speaker 3:Like, yeah, he got a chance. He also got the opportunity to play Gundam Breaker.
Speaker 1:Oh, number four Okay, okay.
Speaker 3:Yes, when I tell you.
Speaker 2:If I knew anybody that was playing it right now, they would probably say how dope it is.
Speaker 1:Look at you, Listen. Isn't that coming out in like late this year, like November, like somewhere in that area?
Speaker 2:Yeah, it looks like October, November. Yeah, they probably going to push it back, though you know they always pushing the Harry Potter fans, oh you know that's going to be real competitive.
Speaker 1:You know, like the Harry Potter fans, they're not going to play that, they're going to get their own golden stitch and everything.
Speaker 2:Well, and I heard, you can play from any position too. Man, I'm trying to tell you, I'm trying to tell you, they bring the real HP fans out, man.
Speaker 1:You know they got to, like you, dance control after the whole thing with Hogwarts legacy you know like honestly, I feel like Hogwarts legacy didn't really deserve all the hate. They'll again like it's only because, like they were like mad at JK Rowling, I'm like, but why y'all checking out on the game like the people who made the game got nothing to do with that? That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:They ain't got nothing to do with her. The editor made that book.
Speaker 1:I'm like, I mean like Daniel and Emma and Rupert, like they don't agree with what she said. That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2:Sorry, Emily, though she said that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:Try the emulator, so I'm like I might still play Hogwarts Legacy somewhere in the future. I just didn't get around to you know grown folk shit going on.
Speaker 2:It's a great game, man. It's a great concept. I couldn't wait to learn. You know, Cruciatus Avada Kedavra, it's such a. It's so easyavra. It's so easy, bro, it's so easy to kill people.
Speaker 1:Nah, you know what I like, how? I think it was either him or somebody else that pointed out to where hey man, listen, I get the fact that you got a bunch of spells that could kill people, but this one forbidden spell Right, bunch of spells that could kill people, but this one forbidden spell right here all it does is kill people. But you got spells where it kills people in such creative ways like, why aren't these spells banned? You know what? I'm not gonna question the logistics of all that, but I'm just saying it's just one of those things where I'm like, yeah, I'm probably gonna pick up that spell too. But it's just funny, of those things where I'm like, yeah, I'm probably going to pick up that spell too, but it's just funny how, like, you got all these different spells that could kill people, but this one spell here is banned because it kills people.
Speaker 2:It don't make sense, Yo, if I get accepted to Hogwarts, bro, year one, I'm dropping out. But I only need to learn that one spell, Bro. If somebody come and try to take my wand, bro, I'm going to use my one spell. Bro, they're going to just stop coming. Oh, dang Dang took to kill another one.
Speaker 1:Yup, I surely did. I feel that. I feel that, but I'm too paranoid because I'm going to learn some more spells, like defensive spells, so that way it's going to be hard for them to sneak me. So I'm like I'm going to have my magical barrier up and then zap him.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but you can learn all that in one year, though.
Speaker 1:And you can take the books you need. I just need the one year.
Speaker 2:I just need that one year, bro. I just chill with Dumbledore, get on some, you know.
Speaker 1:I could be in the fucking library learning skills Like look.
Speaker 2:Hey, I'm trying to get on Hermione and Jenny real quick and I'm out Year one you fucking homewrecker.
Speaker 3:Y'all got anything else from your games.
Speaker 2:So Chang be stepping too, though Harry messed up Didn't be me, did he? Though Don't let me be the chosen one. I'm going to be choosing around the school Like yo. You know, I'm the chosen one, right? But no, I ain't got nothing else the game.
Speaker 1:Yeah, no, no. I think about, like I remember that one thing where Hermione was getting a little upset. Well, you know, I am the Chosen One Shut up. Oh, all right, let's go ahead and get into music. You know normally not a whole lot, but in this case there's something that Was kind of funny to happen. So, for starters, that new Eminem album, the Death of Slim Shady. Heat, absolute heat.
Speaker 2:You gotta listen in order though.
Speaker 1:Yeah, they made that very clear. You cannot just like Pick a gong and like At very least experience the album In chron a song, and like at very least experience the album in chronological order, and then you can like pick a tune, but then you gotta like experience the album yeah, it's just like Jim Crow, the musical, like you gotta listen right in the world right, and I know it's not on here, but uh, voltress 2 dropped at midnight.
Speaker 1:Kanye West dropped it randomly so, okay, I did not know that honestly, but cool, cool, cool. Oh yeah, you can buy vinyl records of Hashtag Hotel and Karate Kid soundtracks, which makes sense because you know Karate Kid classic, I can understand, and Hashtag Hotel, man, like the majority of their whole soundtrack, is a fucking banger. So they deserve a vinyl, honestly. Uh, last part in music and this is the funny part so drake, he placed a 300 000 bet on canada to beat argentina and after argentina won, guess what they did? The official account for the Argentinian national team played Hendrick Lamar's Drake this track. Not like us on their fucking Instagram that's crazy.
Speaker 1:He did it to himself but no, no, also, I didn't write this down in the script, but there was another part to where it also involves Drake. To where, from now on, any DJ that plays any of Kendrick Lamar's songs while I'm in the function they getting fired. I'm like man, you petty, you know I don't blame you you do not own the venue.
Speaker 3:I need him to come to Atlanta so that way I can get every DJ To go up in whatever club he's in and all of them gonna play that bitch. That's a fact. They're gonna surround that shit and they're gonna play that shit so he can run the fuck out. They're gonna run him out of Atlanta. So when he do that to Meek Mill, it fuck out.
Speaker 2:They're going to run him out of Atlanta. I don't give a fuck. The way he do that to Meek Mill, it's okay, but when somebody do it to him he mad, exactly yeah.
Speaker 1:See the hypocrisy man. See, this is what I'm talking about. To where, like when we did the whole review on the Raps of War. To where, like his first real beef. Like, see, that's the problem. Like he got his very first real beef and look at the way he's handling it like a fucking baby.
Speaker 3:Like the way he even got his hair.
Speaker 1:Nowadays, bro, like yeah, the way he even got his hair nowadays and like the fucking, like afro puff now, like what the?
Speaker 3:fuck he got going on. That's what his ass gets, that's what he deserves. He gets what the fuck he deserves because, simply put and I'm saying like it is like nigga, first and foremost, when your team told you hey, you got allegations out there, why Zoo out this bitch? You might want to handle that shit.
Speaker 1:Hey, um you like this shit, Allegations that you hand fed them.
Speaker 3:Nigga. You hand fed all this shit Like yo, fix this shit, fix this shit, fix this, fix this, fix this. Nope, you let this shit roll on to the point when now it got so fucking serious that folks was like Yo, a-drake, we ain't fucking with you no more. Why, you ain't fucking with me, nigga? They say you got child presence. Ain't nobody want to be over there with that? We done signed up For this shit.
Speaker 1:Oh no, you don't understand. I told them that it was all fake information.
Speaker 3:No, fuck all that, that doesn't mean why that shit don't work. Hey, nigga, you get what you get.
Speaker 1:I'm like you just made yourself look worse. I'm like why would you want people to paint yourself? Why would you paint yourself?
Speaker 3:That boy. So fuck all that. Once again, that nigga get what he deserve. You went at this motherfucker and, goddamn, you thought that oh shit was gonna be sweet. You didn't realize that this motherfucker, you didn't realize once again, this motherfucker comes from Pompton, where he hangs out with people who don't just rap, they battle rap.
Speaker 1:There's no candy over here, Degrassi.
Speaker 3:Like they don't just do regular rapping and shit, they tap it. And the words of a lot of rappers I know one in particular Charlie fucking Clicks, they tap pockets. So when your pockets start being tapped now, you mad, ain't no point in being mad. Go home, cry about it, bitch.
Speaker 1:Hashtag Steve Madden.
Speaker 3:In our words over on 14,. He gonna cry in the car. He gonna cry in the car. It he gonna cry in the car. It's about time for this shit. Yeah, yeah, get what he fucking get. But I got grass. That's me right. Like I said, I got grass, yo shit. Here's what it is. But as far as music industry goes, like as far as the rest of this stuff, I'm happy. Hasbro Hotel and Karate Kid got, you know, vinyl soundtracks, they got their vinyls, and so it's relatively nice. Eminem is always gonna be In my fucking mouth. So, like legit, I'm gonna give this warning again Please, please to you new babies out here in the fucking universe quit fucking with Eminem. Leave that nigga alone. They ain't learned their lesson yet, bro, leave, hear what I say. The key word is nigga. Leave that nigga alone.
Speaker 2:But Talos he's white he white?
Speaker 3:no, the fuck he's not. Talos he's white? No, the fuck he's not. That is an entire nigga, that nigga, that nigga, that boy, nah he remind me of light skin.

Speaker 1:Nah, listen, like see Drake should have paid attention to that Beat between Eminem and MGK. So I'm like, hey, do you want that to be you?
Speaker 3:Exactly, Exactly, my nigga. Did you want that to be? You Like, like, like, legit.
Speaker 2:Like legit, he had to go to another genre of music.
Speaker 3:Yeah, Like legit. Look, we're not trying to Megan.

Speaker 3:Uh-uh, no, that's what I'm saying. Like this shit here wild. This shit here hella wild. Like ooh no, Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh no.
Speaker 1:Oh, bro, man like, yeah, I'm sorry, aubrey, but pretty much the same advice I would give to Jonathan Major You're going to have to like lay low for a little while, I'm sorry. At the very least, lay low for a little while Because you got cooked. You got cooked, yes, but go here Especially, fucking meet the grams. I like god damn, this is not even a rap beep anymore, this is like a fucking court case being aired on the radio waves. I'm like you see, drake, you should have stayed quiet when uh kendrew was talking about fuck the big three, just big me nigga.
Speaker 1:Oh, shut up don't, don't take up, don't take that personally. Don't take that personally, because what's? Going to happen is you're going to pop off your mouth and then you're going to get embarrassed. You should have just don't even entertain that. You should have did what J Cole did. Don't even entertain that. That's all I got, at least for music Books. I got some tissues ready for you. My Hero Academia is ending.
Speaker 2:Golded, golded, golded, nope, nope, I don't want to hear nothing.
Speaker 3:I want to finish first go ahead.
Speaker 1:It's ending y'all. The manga is ending this weekend. Upon recording, it is July. I mean not July, fuck, august 3rd. It's supposed to be coming out sometime this weekend. So the last chapter Is coming and the anime Is right behind it, because they are like Halfway into season seven. By the look of things. If my guesstimate is correct, the anime is going to end somewhere in late september, maybe early october. If they're doing like three to five chapters per anime episode, doing the math, yeah, it'll probably end like late October and it'll be completely done. But you know we still getting the movie You're next, it's already out. So if you've seen it, cool, cool, cool, we're gonna review and all that other shit.
Speaker 2:It worth some spoilers, but I'm not gonna say it I didn't watch it yet. And I didn't read it yet and I'm not crying.
Speaker 1:No, Not even a whole lot happening. It's more like some falling action Trying to tie up some loose ends. That's pretty much all it is. Naruto and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are getting a crossover and a comic and I'm like, wow, this is actually kind of a good one. But I'm like I didn't think this one. What a time to be alive. Y'all you get to see Naruto and chill with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Um, okay, Sad news for y'all who this affects. So GameStop is deciding to discontinue the Game Informer magazines after 33 years of publication. And I still have some of the Game Informer magazines in my closet somewhere. So I'm like I don't really read them that much anymore. But thinking about it, I'm like, yeah, I guess you say I only care because of sentimental proxy. You know, because of sentimental proxy. You know, the Book of Bill, you know, based off Bill Cipher from Gravity Falls, has reached number one in the New York Times bestseller list. I'm like wow.
Speaker 1:Congratulations. That's it for books. Y'all got anything y'all want to add on to all that.
Speaker 3:All right, so real quick, real quick One. Gamestop counts days, because it was about time that we knew, once Game Informer went, it's supposed for y'all to go.
Speaker 1:I thought GameStop was big on both ways.
Speaker 3:I want to say this wholeheartedly hey, you know what? It's close for y'all to go on, just like how it is, with the physicality of games, also with the physicality of movies and such. We knew it as soon as Redbox is starting to go. Yeah, you're about to see less and less.

That's when I knew that in the end, mostly their bread and butter is the hardware, you know, not the games per se, more like the consoles, the little accessories that come with the console. That's their bread and butter. Outside of that, honestly, when you really think about it, do games not even give a fuck about games itself, or are they really in there for their own money? I don't know, I don't even know anymore. Uh yeah, that's all I have for all what was it folks.
Speaker 3:But yeah, as far as it goes, the rest of the books, like the book of bill cypher, that right there, I kind of like I mean wrong, I kind of like it. I'm like, yeah, I want to see what. I want to see what this is going to look like. This is going to be fun.
Speaker 1:So oh yeah, oh yeah don't you have anything you want to add on to books?
Speaker 2:before we get into the last bit all I wanted to say was I got so many game informers and I'm mad that I won't get no more that's crazy.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it feels weird now, like they owe me five dollars too bro, you know what?
Speaker 3:nah, they owe you five.
Speaker 2:I'm supposed to get mine for the end of the year, so they can't just continue and I pay my $5.
Speaker 1:How you gonna rendition?
Speaker 2:They can at least put a preorder in For a game for me.
Speaker 1:Man Best we could do is like you could like $5 and throw a credit card For your next purchase. That's all they can do. Man Best we could do is like Give you like five dollars and throw a credit towards your next purchase.
Speaker 2:That's a fact. That's all Notorious ass, but yeah, I mean, that's all I had on books too.
Speaker 1:I'm like no, no, no, hold on, hold on, wait a minute. Normally it's the customer that haggles A purchase. This is one of these mergers that haggles a purchase. This is one of these mergers that haggles the customer. I'm like man, get the fuck out of here. Miscellaneous news. Okay, this is the part where I say it might have the craziest stories of all, but it depends on how y'all might feel about it.
Speaker 1:Starting with some science news, apparently there's some new research showing that, uh, the exoplanet lhs-1140b. It looks like an eyeball because its ocean is surrounded by this solid ice. So it's ocean, it's surrounded by this solid ice, so it's like this blue dot Surrounded by white ice. So it could have liquid water On the surface and therefore support life. So Could there be aliens out there? Is this a new planet For when the earth gets so fucked up that we gotta build rocket ships and go to a new planet, since we so fucked up that we gotta like hey, man, you know, we gotta build rocket ships and go to a new planet, since we already fucked up this planet. Who knows, we'll see. So this one's kind of funny. Well, kind of tragic.
Speaker 2:I don't know.
Speaker 1:So the transportation manager at some place a transportation manager said that Isekai Is to blame for All these truck coon Memes where you know, like in the wise man, grandchild Knights and magic zombie land Saga, where you know Main character gets killed, usually by a truck, and gets Transported to some magical location, I was like man, I blame y'all for giving trucks a bad name. Like we ain't getting into no accident with no kids. I'm like bro, bro, bro, it's just a trope, it ain't that deep. But speaking of memes, hugh Jackman recreates iconic um Wolverine photograph meme. So you know the one in the original x-men tv show where he's looking at this photograph and people like making memes out of that he pretty much did a live action version of that.
Speaker 1:So I thought, oh yeah, uh, ryan Reynolds did it too with, uh, his Deadpool persona and, uh, you, he had to be in on the fun. Disney is teasing Hades and Dr Doofenshmirtz in the Oogie Boogie Badge 2024. I need to look into that. Honestly, I just thought it was kind of interesting because I like these two characters. I don't know much about the Oogie Boogie Badge, but I'll look into that later.
Speaker 1:Alright, here's where things get kinda fucked. So the Rogue Company they pull all of Dr Disrespect's content from the free-to-play third-person tactical shooter, offering Rogue Book refunds to those who purchased the premium items after the streamer was alleged to have sent sexually explicit messages to a minor. And I'm like, doc, did you not hear the Drake, this song to where? I'm like you're not supposed to be doing all this. And um, another news for charity reasons reasons, you can donate thousands Of dollars To play video games For Pokimane. I mean, if you're into that Sort of thing, I would Consult your financial advisor About doing that, because I don't think that's the one I'll give her, like Three dollars and a pack of kilos oh fuck.
Speaker 1:No. Seriously, though, like I heard rumors, it was like somewhere between 30 bands to almost half a million. I'm like what?
Speaker 3:Shit.
Speaker 1:You got it. You got it, man Wow baby. Okay. Attack on Titan. Manga editor has been sentenced to 11 years of prison For murdering his wife.
Speaker 2:He's a Yeagerist.
Speaker 3:Not he's a.
Speaker 2:Yeagerist. Oh, that's too soon.
Speaker 1:No, I don't want to hear that From a motherfucker who's defending Aaron Yeager in nerdy court.
Speaker 3:Oh my god, not the Yeagerist. Oh no, defending Aaron Jaeger, it's nerdy court. Oh my God, not the Jaegerists.
Speaker 1:Oh no.
Speaker 3:Oh Jesus, I'm going to need you to All right.
Speaker 1:Oh Lord, oh, oh, check this out. Y'all remember Beyblade, yes, so, uh, the designer of Beyblade, kenji Horikoshi, excuse me, he spoke out about a continued popularity of Beyblade right In a recent interview, so to speak, and he commented that the employees have joked about it but now it kinda leans towards being kinda serious about Beyblade, so to speak, and he commented that the employees have joked about it but now it kind of leaned towards being kind of serious about Beyblade becoming an Olympic sport. And speaking of Olympics, that last Olympic, you know, in Paris, where you got the guy Yusuf and the one agent, the way they were doing the Olympic shooting, I'm like man that was like so stoned. But you know, know what I kind of like the olympics. Now, a beyblade as an olympic sport, I don't think beyblade I mean it's fun to, but it doesn't take a whole lot of physical prowess to play.
Speaker 3:How dare they?
Speaker 2:Alright, so I'm upset because it shouldn't be Olympic sport until Uno and Spades is Olympic sport and maybe Domino's.
Speaker 1:I mean Beyblade's more of a sport than them. I would rather call Baka gonna support this. But nah, like I don't know I the best they got Is like okay, the way you like Pulling the ripcord like real hard and I guess it takes some arm strength. But even then I'm like what, what, what you're expecting it to be like the fucking anime to where you see like this whole academy or some sort of like cult-like place where, like some big bad guy for some reason got a whole bunch of kids in this facility and they just just like practicing, um, you know, letting it rip and all that. That's all they do for like hours. Like that's what you spent um, is that what you're expecting from all this?
Speaker 3:so, right, I'm gonna say it like it is. If you have not seen them on TikTok, like, legit, the whole thing of, yeah, you know this right doing this, this and that, this and that, yeah, it's gonna be lit, I'm gonna tell you right now it's going to be hella fire. I'm gonna say it like it is before anybody else does. I, wholeheartedly, am definitely down for it. I know he's joking about it, but if he wasn't, then once again, I'm definitely down for it. I am, I'm definitely down for it. Because I am. I'm definitely down for it because I'm like look, I will pull out the freaking Beyblades for the sake of this. I will pull them back out. I have an entire collection. I have at least six that I know that I worked on specially. I'm like yeah, run me the one, don't play with me.
Speaker 1:Like, associates, it's going to be like a free-for-all portion to where there's going to be a whole bunch of Beyblades at one big-ass arena and then a last Beyblade standing proceeds to the next round. I guess.
Speaker 3:Yes, it's going to relatively be like that and I'm just like to the next round. I guess, yes, it's going to relatively be like that and I'm just like yeah, okay.
Speaker 1:I got you. I have like a legit tourney style going on for Beyblade. I'm like you know what. Yeah, I kind of see it in that aspect, but I'm like Olympics for it, though.
Speaker 2:Okay. Okay, though, okay, everything. I can have a gold medal in the bay and in uno. Now dominoes I'm not sure about. I probably get like the bronze, but not the best in the world, but definitely can win in the Olympic tournament.
Speaker 3:Like I said, the Olympics, look, look, even though it was a plain thing, yeah.
Speaker 1:I'm definitely down for it. Like, who knows, it might actually become a thing, Like, if they like they have the charisma to convince folks like, hey, yeah, it can kind of work as an Olympic sport. You got to have at least a little bit of arm strength to do Beyblade so I can kind of see it.
Speaker 2:What's that movie where they was battling robots?
Speaker 3:You're talking about the one where Hugh Jackman was in. What's that movie where they was battling robots? Come on, you're talking about the one where Hugh Jackman was in. Yeah, yeah, I know what you're talking about. I can't think of the name Real Steel.

Speaker 3:I can see that.
Speaker 1:America will lose every time until like yeah, probably lose over in the Far East.

Speaker 1:You had the best thievery y'all.
Speaker 2:Or we bought the best stuff, we bought the best plans.
Speaker 1:Quote unquote acquired.

Speaker 2:You are silently acquiring assets to win in the Olympics Because we're number one on the robot that say made in Japan.
Speaker 1:You can't prove it was stolen. We simply acquired it.
Speaker 2:Now, that'll be dope for the Olympics man.
