Nerdy News Special #26: Hot Nerd Summer Edition (Season Finale)
The landscape of nerdy entertainment is constantly shifting, and this special season finale of Nerdy News serves as both recap and preview of what's to come. As we transition from standalone episodes to integrating nerdy news segments with our reviews throughout 2025 (before launching weekly editions in 2026), we're taking this opportunity to catch you up on everything you might have missed during our brief hiatus.
In the film world, anticipation builds around Tom Holland's return as Spider-Man with his new suit and supporting cast, while Superman breaks records as the highest-grossing solo Superman film ever. We dissect the curious case of Fantastic Four's steep second-weekend drop despite positive audience reception, and explore how K-pop Demon Hunters conquered Netflix with its innovative blend of music and supernatural action. Meanwhile, Steven Yeun's casting as adult Prince Zuko in the upcoming Legend of Aang animated film signals exciting developments for Avatar fans.
Television and streaming platforms continue their evolutionary dance, with Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss announcing new seasons while HBO Max controversially scrubs classic Cartoon Network content from its service. We examine how The Boys is expanding its universe through Gen V, discuss Amazon's commitment to Fallout with a renewal through Season 3, and contemplate what Jessica Jones' return means for the future of Marvel television.
Our gaming segment delivers the shocking revelation that Nintendo has officially declared Mario and Princess Peach "just friends," explores the end of console exclusivity as Gears of War heads to PlayStation, and dives into tantalizing Pokemon Generation 10 rumors suggesting an island-hopping adventure across 16 main territories.
Beyond entertainment, we explore the fascinating intersection of pop culture and real-world events, from Indonesian citizens raising One Piece's Straw Hat Pirate flags in government protests to scientists successfully transforming lead into gold at Europe's Large Hadron Collider.

What up, gang? It's the season finale of the Nerdy News special. I call it the season finale because here's the thing From this point afterwards, we're going to be doing Nerdy News at the tail end of our reviews. You know, kind of like church stops where they have a main sermon and afterwards they do the announcements, that kind of sort of thing. So we're going to be doing that for the rest of 2025. And then in 2026, we're going to have the nerdy news as a weekly thing, to where it'll be like less news per segment or per episode, but it'll be more frequent, like fresh, fresher news. So that's about it. Also, in other developments, I am geeking out about having this brand new mic and it's not going to be no sponsorship. I'm just saying like I'm just glad to have like some new podcast equipment to work with so it might increase the quality.
Speaker 1:So, without further ado, let's go on and get into the nerdy news. So let's start with movies, as per usual. For starters, we recently got a new look at Tom Holland's new Spider-Man suit and brand today, along with confirmation that MJ Ned, the Hulk Punisher and Scorpion will be in the movie. Also, whoever Sadie Sink is supposed to be, kevin Feige said that they're not allowed to bring miles morales into the mcu yet and I kind of understand, because the way they're setting up it, uh, across the spider verse into the spider verse, where by the time beyond the spider verse come, they're probably gonna do something to where, oh, he's suddenly part of a live action version of miles morales. Oh yeah, you're gonna be part of the MCU. Now I'm like if that would happen, we kind of knew already. We were just waiting for that to actually happen. We'll see in about two or so years. I mean, also, it makes sense because with Secret Wars coming we're going to have the symbiote suit Spider-Man, and I believe that's also right around time and coming before that Miles Morales came in. But I may be misremembering. I know the symbiote suit part for sure, but I think that's also when Miles showed up during Secret Wars. But anyways, let's move it on Fantastic Four rewards. But, uh, anyways, let's move it on, uh, fantastic four.
Speaker 1:It earned 11 million domestically in its second product, which is a massive negative 80 percent drop from its debut. So people are saying that, um, financially it was a flop. But I was hearing that was doing pretty good, like in theater, like people like the film, so it's unfortunate Like maybe some folks weren't able to watch the film. Oh well, it is what it is. Speaking of films, superman it opened as one of the highest rated DC films and becoming the highest grossing solo Superman movie ever, earning $217 million. Good for Superman. Good for Superman with the whole cast and all that Very bank of job.
Speaker 1:K-pop demon hunters Achieved what Netflix called a new viewing peak With this fifth week on the platform and this week it came with an impressive 26.3 million views. Very good, I watched it twice and I'm kind of surprised Disney didn't come up with this shit, but anyways, avatar I watched it twice and I'm like kind of surprised Disney didn't come up with this shit, but anyways, avatar, the Last Airbender creators Michael Dante DiMartino and Brian Konecko I hope I got that at least kind of correct have confirmed that Steven Yeun of the Walking Dead Invincible will be voicing adult Prince zuko in the upcoming animated film the legend of ang, the last app, the last airbender. Oh, I am kind of excited for that and, crazy enough, I can kind of see steven as zuko, like you know, but as an adult zuko I can kind of see it. I'm trying to see it. Uh, thunderbolts. It also flopped, unfortunately, like they even say, like it was probably because it was had 76 million domestic box office opening over the weekend with a global box office total of 400 million, and the film was made with a 280 million budget, including 1 million in promotional costs. So they're thinking like, oh, they didn't make the money back. And before I continue, let me just say that this is just a catch up of all the news between May and now, because we've been taking a break on podcasting and whatnot. But we're getting back into it and we're playing catch up with some of the news that came out and honestly, there wasn't a whole lot Not a whole lot that I thought it was, but there's. Let's just get into it. Let's just keep it going.
Speaker 1:So Thunderbolt's director Is in the talks to direct a Marvel Studios X-Men movie. We're going to have Michael Leslie writing the script for the film, who also was responsible for the newest Hunger Games movie, the Valley of Sun, birds and Snakes. Cool, cool, cool, cool. Okay, this is going to be the weird part. We've been hearing things about tariffs lately and Trump was saying that he'll be implementing a 100% tariff on movies produced in foreign lands, deeming them a national security threat and at this stage it's unclear how such a tariff will work, but how this will affect production will be affected. So you mean to tell me shit like anime movies, like the upcoming demon slayer movie and all this other shit. You tell me they're gonna put a tariff on that. Okay, so, oh, they're national security threats. Now, all right, excuse me a little, tickle my throat, but keeping it moving.
Speaker 1:The Lord of the Rings, the Hunt for Golem it is set to be coming out On December 17, 2027. We got a new logo For Godzilla and Kong Supernova that's coming out in March 26, 27. Youtube is moving forward With a plan to stop Supernova. That's coming out in March 26-27. Youtube is moving forward with a plan to stop fake movie trailer accounts from generating revenue off their work. Good, because there was like this one champ I think it was ScreenCulture where they would put out these trailers, making it look like they're the actual trailer, but they're not. So personally, I say good, I'll just keep it at that Because misleading.
Speaker 1:First of all, amc theaters will slash their prices on Wednesdays by half, starting on July 9th. Well, you know, that's past, that, I don't know. It's been a month now. And in an effort to get more folks in for a movie During the midweek slump. And oh, by the way, with the Legend of Aang that's coming out on October 9th 2026, we got Final Destination, bloodlines, breaking it's own franchise records With 21 million on the opening day, so that's pretty good. The sequel to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, mutant Mayhem own franchise records with 21 million on the opening day, so that's pretty good. Uh, the sequel to teenage mutant ninja turtles, mutant mayhem is now delayed until 2027. Uh, henry cavill's upcoming voltron movie is going straight to streaming in prime video instead of having a theatrical run. Oh man, they keep doing henry cavill dirty like.
Speaker 1:I just think like hollywood just hate this man for some reason, like, but I'm like this is the same man that does the homework on this shit, like this, you know superman and the witcher and warhammer, whatnot, but like, why y'all keep calling this man. I just, I just don't understand anyways, avengers doomsday has been delayed to December 18, 2026. Meanwhile, avengers, secret Wars has been delayed to December 17, 2027. Bandai Namco and A24 is teaming up with the writer and director of Alice Garland to bring From Software and world-renowned video game elder ring to life as a live action film. So that'll be coming out soon at some point, but just expect the elder ring movie to come out too. Um, that's all I got for movie news for right now, and, tanara, you're new to the nerdy news. Uh, how are you feeling about all this so far?
Speaker 2:um, definitely some interesting stuff going on there. I had I hadn't heard anything about legend of ang um, so that should be interesting. Um, k-pop, demon hunters I I personally have seen that about a baker's dozen so far and probably gonna be more in the future. Um, I'm they. They have like vinyl records of you know the soundtrack. I'm very tempted to get those, but they're also like 35 bucks, um, but um, pretty excited about the new spider-man. Hadn't heard about that before. So, like I told you, a lot of stuff I hadn't heard of, but I am very excited for um, I didn't.
Speaker 2:The head for gollum should be interesting, very curious what they're going to do as far as story-wise on that, learning more about smeagle and whatnot um also, I'm also very glad about them youtube stopping those fake movie trailer accounts from you know, because there's there been several, many times where it's like I'm like, oh my god, oh my god. And then, um, I'm like reading the comments, they're like everyone, check the description, check the description, fan mate, it's like son of a bitch, like getting, get me all excited about this. But yeah, and like you said, hollywood seems to have something against Henry Cavill. That poor man. He does his research, he knows his material, and yet they're like nope, you can't. It's like what? But yeah, no, it'll be. That's a lot of stuff coming up in movies over the next couple of years.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, definitely Tell us your turn how you feeling about the movie news.
Speaker 3:Alright, alright, where do I begin? Let's First off you know what? Let me kick the elephant in the room and actually hit it with a tranquilizer dart. First and foremost. I'm going to say this Out loud, proud and do not care Trump, if you really want to see, you really want to see what they say Happens when the drums of liberation Begin to play Fuck around, find out.
Speaker 1:Hey you, Kunar, let's not say it again.
Speaker 3:Fuck around, find out, because that is the dumbest thing ever. We already going through dumb shit. You really want people to cut the fucking fool behind? Oh, hey, we no longer have anime and fucking movies. Oh, bitch, yeah. Yeah, that's your ass, mr Postman. So by all means, go for it, be great.
Speaker 1:Try it. Didn't we just talk about Indonesia in the One Piece review? Yep, but yes, that, and then also how they're like going up in arms about um, the world government, their government, on some fuck shit and I'm like, hey yo, america's that fucking close to like the drums of liberation going on. I hear them in the background.
Speaker 2:Oh, when y'all are talking about the drums. All I can hear is is from lamez. Do you hear the people sing, singing the song of angry men? It's like that one you're talking about the drums, like that song just started going through my head right.
Speaker 3:it's stupid, it's very stupid, like you're going to tell me hey, yeah, this is what we want to do, this is the main thing that we really want to do. We want to do this. No, it's not. That's not what you really want to do, because you're really trying to sit here and make yourself like other countries. Don't do that, don't do that, don't be like, oh no, we're going to just block this here, here, here, by all means one, here, by all means one. Hey, I know for a fact several, several good nerds have said I'll just up and leave. I can politely move and start a citizenship somewhere else. Believe me, I'm in the words of ace vane, but I'm an lx. Uh, canada and japan lit right now. I don't care what you say, canada and Japan lit. Right now, I can politely get the hell on it.
Speaker 4:But that dumb shit.
Speaker 3:No, outside of dumb shit, and I just said it like it is outside of dumb shit, I ain't cool. So we got a long list, so I'm going to try to speak through this.
Speaker 3:Speak, listen as much as I can. I'm happy about the whole thing for Spider-Man that the new suit got confirmed, yay, cool, kevin Feige God rest his motherfucking soul. That man is putting in fucking work. That man is putting in fucking work. Um, I know you want to bring in Miles Morales. I know everybody wants it and they're not allowing him to do so just yet. Um, understand me, understand me. Y'all better give him Miles Morales, because, bitch mm.
Speaker 3:Alright, first off, to the fucking fans, here's what I'm going to tell y'all. This is the first one I'm gonna tell y'all Shut your motherfucking mouth, because y'all complained about Fantastic Four. Fantastic Four is fucking good. Y'all bitches want Fantastic Four that y'all know and love. Nigga, this is an alternate dimension. Fantastic Four.
Speaker 3:Y'all complained so fucking much. God damn Can't sit here and stand. No, motherfucking and I understand Not everybody needs a fucking podcast, because some of y'all motherfuckers that sit out here and voice y'all goddamn opinions Really, really, really truly Need a dick stuck in that bitch. So you're shit fucking. Let me hit you with the real. Some of y'all need something stuck in y bitch. So you're shit fucking. Let me hit you with the real. Some of y'all need something stuck in y'all motherfucking mouth so y'all can shut the hell up. I don't give a damn what the fuck you need, because some of y'all be like, eh, ah, ugh, this is your opinion. Shut up, keep your opinion to your motherfucking self.
Speaker 3:The movie did actually good, especially coming from an actual fucking fan and not a goddamn stand. Yes, folks, there's a difference. An actual fan knows how to watch something and know that. Okay, hey, it ain't going to always be the same, because each universe is fucking different. The MCU universe is different from the fucking comic book universe. They're not all wholly the same. There are certain differentials. Each universe is fucking different. Why do you think there's different numbers, bitch?
Speaker 2:That's why it's called, you know, the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It's it's own universe.
Speaker 1:Right.
Speaker 3:Like I said, some folks just. Secondly, here's why I kicked the fans In the ass again. Superman and I'm not even a dc fan y'all bitches crying about that one if y'all don't get off crypto's nuts like they were ready to hate this film too, but like bro, like it was actually looking good, like damn, I want you to understand something. Goddamn, leave the dog alone. Motherfucking dog did nothing to you. He actually put in fucking work, but then again y'all bitches, don't know them, don't know no better.
Speaker 3:We saw it's all good, we understand, you know. Once again, I can't that this is the reason why I say I cannot stand fans sometimes. Don't get me wrong. Well, correct me. I can't stand the stans, I can't stand them. Fake ass fans, k-pop, demon hunter, fucking awesome.
Speaker 1:And.
Speaker 3:I'ma tell you how. You know it was good for people to say they don't like k-pop, but they watch this.
Speaker 1:All right, that shows something that's oh, perhaps I treated you too harshly that shows a lot of something, um, like legit I it.
Speaker 3:I've watched it at least three times. I'm going to watch it again. Avatar there's a lot of stuff I want to say about you because it's all good. I've seen some artwork, I've seen some things. When I tell you and I say again, and I tell you, y'all going in a path, I like I am interested, lord, yes, please stick with it, god damn it. Kicking the fans when they down again, y'all bitches can't. Y'all bitches don't know what good god damn shit is. Apparently, the fucking Thunderbolts was great.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 3:Wait damn, why are you giving them all great? Because why I actually sat through them. Fucking Thunderbolts was great, yeah, and I know Talos. Wait damn, why are you giving them all great? Because why I actually sat through them. I sat through them and watched. I've never been a fucking Thunderbolts fan, not like that. I know I've been a Thunderbolts fan, but I can say they did good for what it was worth.
Speaker 1:Mm-hmm.
Speaker 3:They did good for what it was worth.
Speaker 1:Like legit, you were going to get fucking better. It was a pretty solid movie. I'll watch it again.
Speaker 3:And that was the part about it that I don't understand. Oh, y'all keep complaining about solid movies. They're solid, they wasn't supposed to be just. Oh, they're straight headliners. No, they ain't got to be a fucking headliner. They were solid, they wasn't supposed to be just. Oh, they're straight headliners. No, they ain't gotta be a fucking headliner they were solid fucking movies.
Speaker 1:They're putting into stuff Really. I want to say it's the Infinity War slash Endgame effect where they're all expecting it to be bangers like that or like no Way Home. I'm like bro, it doesn't have to be that complex.
Speaker 3:It don't even have to be that deep, it really don't. But okay, continuing on Lord of the Rings. I'm waiting to see a lot more from it. I want to hear about a lot more from it. So, as a Lord of the Rings fan, I'm wishing greatness. The Godzilla vs Kong Supernova All I'm asking for out of this old kaiju franchise. Give me Space Godzilla, please. Give me Space Godzilla and Biollante, please, please. That's all I ask. Oh, you too. Fuck you. The only reason why I'm saying fuck you, I understand. One you should have been getting this. Two I've heard some things YouTube, y'all trying to make folks push IDs and stuff and like kids Shouldn't do this, that. And the third Okay, cool, do y'all not Realize, right? Parents can just Politely get the fuck on, put IDs up and just say this is their account, and the child can just politely get the fuck on, put ids up and just say this is their account and the child can just use their account. Yeah, oh, okay, once again, y'all are not thinking of workarounds and shit. Kids are smart.
Speaker 1:Kids are beyond fucking smart yeah, and that's almost my gripe sometimes where how adults underestimate how smart a kid can be. It's like you should be smart enough to get good grades, but you shouldn't be smart enough to question things. That's the weird part for me.
Speaker 3:That part. It's like, ok, y'all, y'all kind of, y'all kind of get on my nerves with this. And that's the other thing I'm just saying, like it's like y'all get on my nerves with this and it's like y'all get on my nerves with this and it's like man, look here, I just need y'all do a lot better than what y'all doing. Please do a lot better than what y'all doing, because I, I know y'all ain't thinking. Y'all are not thinking on straight. Y'all trying to implement a lot of stuff. I get it. Oh, look, no, we're gonna just have Blocks up so that way kids can't watch Porn and everything. Nigga Pirate life. Kids gonna get around that shit. Y'all ain't gonna stop it forever and the moment you guys go for the the.
Speaker 1:Moment you go for the hackers.
Speaker 3:Like the moment you go for the hackers and stuff. Oh, hey, look, we're gonna goddamn just make Something else. That's gonna be a lot better. That's what we're gonna do. So why not like at some point and I say this wholeheartedly at some point you just gotta leave shalom and let folks breathe for a bit. Breathe, if you will. Let them go, let go and let God, let go and let God. Alright, so getting off of them. Speed group AMC. Slash their prices, please, jesus, thank you. Keep the prices lagged, take us back. Take us back somewhat. God damn it. We can't get gas prices. At least let the movies be something that we can go back to and chill out. Some folks need something in their lives Somewhere, somewhere. Alright, final Destination I relatively did not watch Bloodlines.
Speaker 3:I'm being real with you. I kind of just was like you know what I'm done with the Final Destination series. Fuck it, I'm leaving it alone. Tmu, ninja Turtles as well I have not called up on. As far as you may have, I have not called up on, so I gotta see what's going on with that.
Speaker 1:We're gonna do a whole experiment with you. I'm even into Turtles anyway, so we'll get to it. So I gotta see what's going on with that. We're gonna do a whole Experiment with you on. You've been doing it terribly anyway, so we'll get to it.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I am upset about them Just pushing Voltron To prime video Instead of having a theatrical run Like damn.
Speaker 1:Because that's a lot of revenue that they're losing out on.
Speaker 3:Correct Alright, doomsday. Why doomsday, why? Why, god? Why are we pushing it back? If we pushing it back, it better be good. It better be A1. You know what I'm talking about? A1, yeah, that's what I'm talking about now that I think about it.
Speaker 1:Aren't they putting out any movies after Fantastic? I'm trying to think, hold on, what's coming out what movie? As far as movies, what's coming out between Doomsday? Okay, hold on, there's Brand New Day, there's that. But outside of that I'm like there's nothing else, really, yeah. So I'm like, oh yeah, you better be setting something up because, uh, you delaying the movie, like you're not putting out a whole lot of moves, like bridge things. So I'm not thinking, uh, is it gonna be like some sort of last minute editor or some shit while you're delaying it? Because usually with delays, it's because they're trying to either cut something out or add something in as far far as Umptonside.
Speaker 3:If anything, they need to put TV shows in between.
Speaker 1:Please. Oh yeah, they're definitely good on that Derrido Born Again, Coming Back 2026, and some other shit, but that's the one for sure. They're bringing that back. They're bringing Hawkeye back, Trying to Some others, but the rest is the game.
Speaker 3:And last but certainly not least, because I see Tuck has reared his head in here.
Speaker 1:What up Tuck?
Speaker 4:Yo, what's good.
Speaker 3:The fact that they got the audacity and density to want to bring the PTSD game of the year, elden Ring, to life as a live action film. Don't do it. Not because I don't want to see Elden Ring as a thing I would love to, not because I don't want to see Elden Ring as a thing I would love to. I don't want you messing it up, because if I hear, oh, we can't do All of the violence and everything, no, no, bitch, no, fuck, no, you can't dumb down Elden Ring. And if you attempt to Dumb down Elden Ring and you attempt to dumb down Elden Ring, it's gonna fuck you. That's how I'm gonna put it.
Speaker 1:You're gonna hear from the Elden Ring community.
Speaker 3:Yes, and I passed the torch, y'all got it Alright, tuck.
Speaker 1:How you feeling about all of this, how you feeling about the whole rundown on movie news?
Speaker 4:Well, first off, carlos, what's good, I ain't heard from you in a minute. You straight.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I'm all right. I'm all right. I know it's been a month of Sundays, so you know.
Speaker 4:Mecca still making.
Speaker 3:Of course, of course.
Speaker 4:I'm watching some new anime drops and all of them sound good man. I'm watching some new anime drops and all of them sound good man. We're going to go over them together, but let's start at the top. Mind you, I've been having a hot boy summer. You know what I mean. City was opening up for like 200 points. I was in Miami thugging. I was in Dallas thugging. I was in Seattle thugging Whew Houston. So I ain't see a lot of movies, but I've been on Beyonce's internet looking through everything, looking at all the movies getting in and out. Alright. So first of all, Miles Morales. I'm not understanding why they just we gotta end this whole partnership with Sony and Marvel like something gotta happen. They gotta buy something. I think they got enough money to buy something.
Speaker 1:I mean you can already tell that they're trying to integrate everything that Sony and Legendary and all those other places that had Marvel stuff and they're trying to bring it back. They're trying to do that but it's a slow, slow integration because, you know, with the whole thing with trademarks and whatnot, because keep in mind, like People were just spending MCU to pop off the way it was until it did so, now Marvel Studios is now looking at hey yo, so since we're up now, like, can we have our shit back? I mean I don't know like you pop and I mean we can pop off with your shit, you know. Yeah, I mean I don't know you pop and we can pop up with your scene.
Speaker 4:Yeah, so I haven't seen the Fantastic Four. I want to see it. I heard it got some bad reviews, though, but of course I don't trust reviews from humans. I would rather see the movie and see what it is to it, and of course, I don't want to go into it, like Talos was saying. I want to go into it thinking we just got another remake, um, and it's replacing another one, when it's a whole universe.
Speaker 1:However, I am upset that my baby mama wasn't recast. No, no, don't do that. She's showing up in secret wars.
Speaker 4:Don't do that she should have been recast in every universe, in every universe, in every universe. But you know, nevertheless, I haven't seen Superman, but I've heard great reviews from it and I can't wait to see it. It's on my list. I'm going to the movies all this week, so we'll see how that goes. K-pop Demon Hunters now, I was supposed to watch it, but what had happened was my daughter watched it without me the day we were supposed to watch it, and I got upset and told her I ain't watching it, but I'm going to watch it. I'm going to watch it. I'm going to watch it when she has school. You know what I mean School, by the start.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's a betrayal right there.
Speaker 4:Right, it made me. I don't even want to turn the TV off. She was reading books the whole rest of the week. I was upset.
Speaker 1:You should have told her no TV for a week.
Speaker 4:She was reading books the whole rest of that week. Can I get my phone? You don't need no phone. What happened to being outside Go?
Speaker 3:right out the back.
Speaker 4:I was petty, I was upset, but yeah, so what's her name? Yeah, he was in Invincible, I knew, yeah. So, oh, what's the name? Yeah, yeah, he was in Invincible. I knew Steven was in Invincible, I knew I knew that name from somewhere. Yeah, think, think, think. I have not seen Marvel's Thunderbolts. I haven't seen Thunderbolts, but I've been spoiled almost the whole movie. So that's about good Lord. This is kind of controversial, but we can't get a new president like this year. I'm not understanding. What did movies do to anybody? How are they a security threat?
Speaker 1:A movie, oh, well, you know, these foreign movies might inject foreign ideas into the American people and we can't have them all radicalized like the Indonesian people who's talking about. Oh yeah, let's rise up against this oppressive government because in this way, of our straw hat, party flags and all that, you can't have that over here.
Speaker 4:I'm scared they're going to become crazy rich Asians Like what. It don't make sense. It don't make sense at all. Youtube do not need to move forward with a plan to stop fake movie trailers because those fake movie trailers be better than the real movie. No, no, no no, hold on.
Speaker 1:Like the parody versions, like you know, like on a trailer, okay, if it's like that, fine, but not like ones that like making it sound like they're like real trailers but they're not. Yeah, like if it's one thing if it's like for a comedic effect, I can't understand, but i'm'm like I don't know man, you just setting up false expectations and whatnot. Be careful with that shit.
Speaker 4:I seen a fake one that was for Forrest Gump too and I was like man, this looking good. I had to Google it. I was like dang, this ain't no movie. It was looking so good, I was like dang. But yeah, they need to like reward, like creativity. At least do it in partnership with, like whoever's releasing those movies so they can have ideas and then get credit for what they was doing. Like it's a bevy of different ways you can do it the right way.
Speaker 4:But I don't know, maybe they don't think about the future and how humans are going to be more creative to do something else. If you take off one thing Talos, you was hitting right on the head. If you take one thing away, you're going to see three more iterations of something to get around that. Humans are very flexible creatures and, of course, I'm not a human, but I understand nuances of humans after being around them for so long, because I wasn't born, I was sketched and created. So there's that.
Speaker 4:Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I am definitely a fan, but I'm not understanding why they want to risk losing money. Definitely a fan, but I'm not understanding why they want to risk losing money. All you gotta do is take some turtles like Franklin and who else is it Any of these all turtles and just put them in a cartoon and let the cartoon get released. You don't need no live action movie. The cartoon was just fine and on YouTube the nigga turtles is even better. Like do a voiceover Shit. You don't have to spend no money Not understanding but going through everything. But yeah, that's all I got, besides the Fact that we ain't never gonna get Secret Wars. Uh yeah, we never gonna get that. That's gonna be delayed again till 2029 Because Marvel Talos are you? Are you still beefing with Marvel versus DC? Oh, I'm not.
Speaker 3:Really beefing with Marvel versus DC? Oh, I'm not really beefing with either one. However, do I like Marvel over DC? Yes, I like Marvel over DC a lot of times. My thing is, it's just that the only reason I accept Marvel over DC more often than not is because, hey, they do shit better. But at the current Moment in time, yeah, I need for everybody In they moment to be like hey look, I need y'all to get right, I need for everybody to get right, did you?
Speaker 4:see Superman.
Speaker 3:Yes.
Speaker 4:And you've seen Fantastic Superman. Yes, and you've seen Fantastic Four.
Speaker 3:Yes.
Speaker 4:So, in comparison to the latest releases, between the two, what do you think?
Speaker 3:In comparison To both, in comparison to both of those Right. Let's see how do I put it. I would say to me, if I had to give one an advantage over the other one, I'd honestly give it to probably. I'd say I'd probably. With Fantastic Four, I'd probably give it to, um, probably, um, I'd say I probably. Well, with fantastic four, I'll probably give it to, uh, superman.
Speaker 1:Honestly I mean to be fair. There's like we okay with fantastic four. It was a solid movie. It had its moments, especially with johnny and um silver sur the thing doing his thing. We get Franklin Richards being involved and whatnot. A little teaser towards Doctor Doom, even though RDJ couldn't show his face. Otherwise he's going to be like an instant $10 million right there. But that's beside the point. Fantastic Four was a solid movie and we're going to review both movies. By the way, we're going to get to it eventually. Just, you know, there's more preparation. That's involved.
Speaker 1:But the whole point being is that with Superman though, okay, the fact that the way this Superman, like we get a whole lot more action. We get to see a whole bunch of people like Hawkgirl, mythotrific, Guy Gardner, metamorph I think it was named once. Yeah, lex Luthor becoming like a master class hater. I'm like bro, like Superman was just like way more entertaining on paper, to where I'm like it's almost refreshing to see how well it did, especially when you see a Superman where it just seemed like it's rare and refreshing to see a Superman that actually feels human, like he actually has a personality, like nothing against Henry Cavill, but it just seemed like Henry Cavill's version and some other versions felt like they were trying to be like this paragon of righteousness, and there's nothing wrong with that. But with this Superman, david Cornsweth, he felt like an actual person. I can actually believe that this is a dude that grew up on a fucking farm in fucking Kansas.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 4:Okay, what I was getting at is, like you know how the hype be so real for, like Marvel movies, oh, marvel's this, marvel's that, oh, I can't stand DC unless Batman comes out or Superman.
Speaker 1:Oh man, I can't wait for part two, because the Batman was so fucking good.
Speaker 4:Yeah, the world's greatest detective. I mean like between Batman, superman. The new directions that they're going in, dc is definitely making a comeback, like they ain't going down without a fight. Like against Marvel, like Marvel is generally. You know, it's Disney. Marvel is a powerhouse in and of itself due to Disney buying everything.
Speaker 1:But I mean, say what you will about James Gunn, whether you hate him or not. I know some folks don't like him, but hey man, james Gunn put out a lot of shit. Remember that's the same dude that was behind Guardians of the Galaxy and all that shit. He knows how to make an ensemble team, mm-hmm.
Speaker 4:Little movies man.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so I'm like let them go. All right, let them go.
Speaker 4:Great, I agree, yeah, but I ain't have nothing else.
Speaker 1:All right, all right. All right, all right, let's move on to television news. And oh yeah, by the way, tanara, I meant to tell you welcome to the nerdy news. We get wild on here.
Speaker 2:Oh, thank you very much yeah.
Speaker 1:All wild on here. Thank you very much. Alright television news. Let's start off with Hasbin Hotel and Helluva Boss Season 2, it is coming out on October 29th. Helluva Boss is coming to Prime Video on September 10th a date before my birthday and it will have a remastered version of the pilot episode, as well as season three of Haspen Hotel already being greenlit. I think season three of Hello Boss is also in the works, but that's going to be the final season and that's coming out whenever Bibi's going to get on that. So let her cook. It's happening. Oh, it's hurting my my heart. This one hurts my heart. All the vintage Cartoon Network cartoons that we grew up on, like Courage, the Cowardly Dog, billy and Mandy, um, fucking Dexter's Lab all that other shit getting scrubbed off HBO Max I'm like you can always do more than that. All that other shit Getting scrubbed off HBO Max I'm like you can always do more than that.
Speaker 1:All that promotion you did for these cartoons and you're sitting there like, yep, we're getting rid of all that shit, I'm like bro, you're making it way less enticing to even have the service Like, yeah, you might have to Rick and Morty and maybe some of the DCU movies that's coming out.
Speaker 4:Harry Potter.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but I'm just saying like that's it. It's like your selection is gonna be so spotty that people will probably subscribe to HBO Max for like a good month. Get caught up on their shit and then unsubscribe by the end of the month. That's what he said. Get set up for it.
Speaker 4:For sure, I'm only subscribing when House of the Dragons new season coming out and then I'm unsubscribing. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:So don't they have like a free trial, like that's? What people are going to do, Do the free trial, binge everything they want and then cancel it.
Speaker 1:He's making all email addresses to get that free trial. Yep.
Speaker 4:Who will make another email address Shoot, but hey, Hulu and Disney+.
Speaker 1:They're surprisingly doing well with the wonderfully weird world of Gumball, by the way, that's making a comeback. It is now the number one trending animated show on Hulu and also being on number one on Disney+. So I'm like, good for Gumball, good for Gumball. Eddie Murphy and Donna Glover are set to start in a separate son reboot. I am very interested now because I'm like, oh, I'm kind of curious. I want to see how they do it.
Speaker 1:Alright, alright, here's the weird part, as of late, we're finding out that 90% of Crunchyroll's users are watching anime with English dub. I'm sitting there like, okay, y'all kind of don't take this too far, it ain't that deep, because a lot of folks are probably on those other sites or maybe using shit like Prime Video or Netflix or whatnot. So that's not like, that's 90% of the crunchy roll users, let's keep that in mind. But, and we stopped really, and here I got all these anime stuff talking about oh, you guys watch yourself, you gotta watch yourself. I'm like, I mean, I get it because you know that's the original intention of it. You know, like hearing it in the original japanese voicing. But and you know, since we don't know japanese that well, unless you actually study japanese.
Speaker 1:Uh, you have the subtitle, so, yeah, I get what you're saying. But like, what can I say? I just can't stand a snob dog, like I don't know, like I guess you could say, if anything, I just don't like the over saturation of snobs. Like maybe I entertain one every now and then, but, like y'all, there's way too many people in the high horse. That's all I'll say on that. But that's just me. That's my personal opinion. But anyways, moving on, stephanie Beatrice, who's also a star in Hashtag Hotel, she is being joined by another co-star of Hashtag Hotel, pete David, for President Courage. It's going to be the Rick and Morty spinoff show. Essentially, pete David is going to be President Courage. You know him from Rick and Morty. Stephanie Beech is going to be on playing a role in that show, so look for them.
Speaker 1:Good shit, good shit. Aaron Moriarty will be returning as Starlight for the Boys in GMB Season 2, which will be premiered on Prime Video on September 17th. I'm mentioning this because here's my theory already, if you've seen the Boys up until the finale of Season 4 and GMB season one, my theory is that Starlight is going to find Marie and the gang and they're going to team up to find where the rest of the boys are and they might end up going against Kate Sam and the whole gang, probably going to end up going against Homelander and his legion of Supes while Butch is off doing his own thing. That's my theory and I kind of wish Mirror Jane was on for this part, because I got a bet going on to where I bet you that with Sister Sage kind of being like Homelander's advisor being smarter, the smartest person in the world and whatnot, homelander's advisor being smarter, the smartest person in the world and whatnot, and Soldier Boy being teased, who might be coming back for this final season of the Boys, my theory is that, you know, with Sister Sage was kind of like fucking around with some of the members of the Seven. My theory is that Sister Sage is going to be fucking around with Soldier Boy in a way that kind of fucks with Homelander, since, you know, soulja Boy is Homelander's like father by DNA and the funniest part is he'll be the only dude that she didn't need to lobotomize herself for to enjoy the sex that she was having with him. That's just my wild ass theory. If it doesn't come true, whatever. If it does come true, then Mira Jane, you owe me a phone call. I fucking call that shit.
Speaker 1:But moving on, we get our first look at some artwork from Avatar Seven Havens. This upcoming 2D animated series from Avatar Studios will follow a young Earthbender who discovers that she's the next Avatar. So we are very excited to know more about this series and, announced during the San Diego Comic Con, the Legend of Vox Machina has been renewed for a fifth and final season ahead of its season four premiere. So, with that being said, I hope it goes out with a bang and until then, let's just enjoy the ride. A new Cyborg 009 anime called Cyborg 009 Nemesis recently just been announced, and it will mark 61 years since the original manga first published. I am excited because I fucking love Cyborg 009. Especially Call of Justice, where it's like 3D animated but like the way they carried about. It was like very good, I like it. I'm gonna check out Nemesis at some point.
Speaker 1:Sota Furuhashi, anime's Anyplex producer excuse me says that he would like to wait until 2028 for solo leveling season 3, mainly because of the next Olympics, because that's going to be a big thing considering that the Olympics are going to happen in Japan that time around. So they want to say let's wait until after the Olympics To drop season 3. I'm like, dang it, that's 3 years from now. Oh no, people are going to be mad. People are going to get mad. Alright, anyways, gonna get mad. Anyways, ironheart did fairly well. People were like really ragging on it. But as soon as they found out, oh, mephisto's in this, well, okay, maybe you're treating it too hard, like nah, I'll fuck off this shit. Get out of here. Get out of here, because y'all are ready to hate on this series but y'all didn't even watch it yet, making a lot of oddly racist remarks. But it was decent. I'll do a full review on Unheard at some point, but it wasn't even that bad, it was pretty good.
Speaker 1:What else going on? Oh yeah, amazon Prime Video has announced a December 2025 release window for Fallout Season 2. Confirmed, and it's also going to be renewed for Season 3. Oh, excuse me, I got a tickle in my throat for some reason, jesus, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Kristen Ritter will be reprising her role as Jessica Jones in jones and daredevil born again, season two. That's coming out next year. I am excited because we might get the defenders coming back into the mcu and we get our first look at nicholas cage live action. Spider noir releasing on 2026 on prime video. Um, I think it's a TV series, so that would make sense. But him as? Okay, no, no, you know, I'll give it a chance, I'll give it a chance. We already talked about the wonderfully real world of Gumball Season 7, that's a thing. Now let's skip over that. Rezero season 4, it's season 4 of 2026, and that is it for television news. So, starting with Tanara, how are you feeling about television news?
Speaker 2:A lot of stuff coming up there and also there's season two of Percy Jackson's coming back on December 10th to Disney+. It'll be interesting without, because we you know who was it that played Lance Reddick played Zeus.
Speaker 1:Oh no, that's the power of him, by the way.
Speaker 2:God, that was so sad. Um, so I don't know who they're planning on having replace him, but, um, I am excited for for that coming out in this. December 10th is when that's supposed to come out. Um, I'm excited for that to come back. That that was one. The whole household every week we'd watch the new episode, um, but and then has been hotel and hello boss, hell, yes, I'm so excited, so ready for this. Um, I do wish they would do more than just the eight episodes of has been like they did with the first season. They only had the eight episodes and it just seemed so rushed. I'm hoping season two won't feel so rushed, but I'm still excited that that's on the 29th and then hell of a boss coming on the 10th, which is like that's, you know that's like a month away super excited about that. Um, and it'll be interesting to see how exactly they reworked that um, that pilot episode, to make it canon again. See what, what they changed and whatnot.
Speaker 2:Um, that does that, with the cartoon network being scrubbed from hb, like that's. Yeah, like I said, that's that you're gonna get. Like. Like y'all were talking about. You know, you're gonna get people that they once their show, whatever the show it is that they want to watch is out fully. They'll do, you know, the free, free trial binge it and then cancel because they're like there's nothing else worth really watching there. Um, I mean because, like, like, um, I remember who was the mentioned you know game of thrones, like that's complete I, I personally have it on dvd, so I don't need prime to watch that if I ever want to watch that um physical media is still important to this day yeah, no, I, you know that's, you know the internet goes out.
Speaker 2:You're not gonna be. It's like I got. I got like three binders full of dvds of shows, movies, etc. So it like I'm set if something happens. Right, the wonderfully weird world of Gumball Leah, and I watched the first episode the other night and it was something. It's definitely what.
Speaker 1:Oh, let's talk about that season premiere of South Park. I forgot to mention that, bro. I heard trump was so heated with their uh interpretation of him in this last episode to a point to where, like they were talking about, oh, take it down, take it, take it down.
Speaker 2:It's like but that's South Park's thing, you know, they make fun of everyone. No one is safe.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's been a thing for, like what, 27 years.
Speaker 2:It's been a thing since they started. Yeah, it's like no one is safe, like they will make fun of anyone and everyone.
Speaker 1:I'm like, bro, like, see, that's like some Drake types y'all over. You know the Raps of Awards where, like you know, kendrick said the whole time, hey yo, it's just unfriendly competition. But Drake took it there Like I was like, oh, I didn't like what he was saying, so I'm going to fire him back. I'm like, bro, bro, bro, bro, like it ain't that deep Like we just, you know, I'm just saying like it's just part of how we roll, but that's the last point, yeah, yeah, but you would say on television news.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so like Leah and I watched that the first episode. There's a handful of episodes out already, for I'm just going to call it WWW Gumball, because that's trying to say wonderfully weird world. Each time Like nah. But yeah, we've only watched episode one so far. But yeah, it's good. And yeah, that whole seven-year sleep thing just covered in dust, that was so much fun. But yeah, I know that episode was something. It was good, though Definitely looking forward to the other ones. I don't know Sanford and Sons.
Speaker 2:As far as the 90% of Crunchyroll users watching English dub, as far as the 90% of Crunchyroll users watching English dub, there's, like some, most I don't care if it's sub or dub, I'll watch either way. But there's some where I prefer the sub and some where I prefer the dub. Like One Piece, I can't stand the dub. I just I can't get over the voices. So that one for me, that one is sub only Inuyasha, I prefer the English dub of that one. So it's like it's, that's like I don't see why it's all that big of a deal. I know there's, you know, the snobs. Oh, you have to watch it in. You know sub and stuff. That's like I, you know, it just depends on the thing and like I said a lot, I don't care, I'll watch in japanese, I'll watch it in english, so like.
Speaker 2:But yeah, like you said, that's only of Crunchyroll users. I mean, there's still a bunch of anime on Hulu on a bunch of different things. That's just on Crunchyroll. Rick and Morty I've seen I don't know all that much. I've seen some, but I don't know all that much. So I don't have much to say on that one. I gotta get caught back up in the boys. I've fallen very far behind in that, but I want to see Jensen Ackles.
Speaker 2:I want to see him in that. That's what I've been seeing. I'm like, damn it, I got to get caught up. Let's see Avatar Seven Havens. I haven, um, let's see, uh, avatar seven havens I haven't seen anything about that so that that that could be interesting. Um, seeing what that? What they'll do with that. Um, legend of vox machina that one's a good one. I'm excited for that one. Um, I don't know anything about cyborg, row nine. Um, solo leveling. I'm like, okay, give us season two before you tell us more about season three. Like we, it's, like I I've read it, so I like I know, but it's like I it's, it's been fun to watch. I actually got uh leah hooked on it as well. We binged the whole wait. No, we do have season two yeah, okay, yeah, my bad I was like wait a second, hold up, okay.
Speaker 2:So see, oh shit, that sucks. Three years. I mean I understand wanting to wait till after the Olympics because that's going to take everyone's attention and if they want, you know, the most viewers, then I understand sort of waiting until after that's over. But yeah, so, no, sorry my bad, um, but yeah, so I can somewhat understand waiting on that until after the olympics, even though it sucks. That that's you know, so far out um, but I can sort of understand, just for viewership Stuff. That's the WWW Gumball again, and yeah, and I don't know much about ReZero. So that's about all I have to say about the TV stuff.
Speaker 1:Yes, I guess. Alright, telos your turn on television news.
Speaker 3:Give me a moment. That's the thing I got to say about that. Give me a minute. Skip me for just now.
Speaker 4:You want me to go there?
Speaker 1:Yeah, go ahead, Tuck.
Speaker 4:All right, I got you Talos, so I am upset. How dare they get rid of my favorite cartoons? Nigga, ed, Edd n Eddy Butter, toast Blank, a Jamaican Skeleton. Dang Billy and Mandy obviously Right, right. A Jamaican skeleton. Dang Billy and Mandy obviously Right, right. But like yo, those some great Shows. Cow and Chicken yeah, come on, bro. I need my daughter to watch all of these shows and get the references.
Speaker 1:Yeah, girl, you not gonna understand what I'm talking about.
Speaker 4:Jokes I gotta explain like yeah, man, it's like they want to end the whole era of great freaking shows. Saturday morning cartoons, bro, hell yeah as a.
Speaker 4:I'm excited for that, for sure. Hell of a boss, yes, for sure. I mean they're in the same world Gumball. I love Gumball. I'm glad it's number one. It deserves to be number one, actually, yeah. So I'm excited also about Eddie Murphy and Donald Glover. They both are funny and they both are equally serious actors too, and they both can sing, which is crazy. So it's a lot of ways they can go.
Speaker 4:And I see a lot of backlash on Beyonce's internet about the reboot. Not to touch it. It's a classic, all that jazzy stuff, but give it a chance it. It's a classic, all that jazzy stuff, but give it a chance. Give peas a chance. Like, come on, bro. And I really don't watch, um, anything but dub on crunchyroll. I go to crunchyroll when I want to watch the dub. So I'm not understanding. Like, unless it's like a new release, I go right to. I mean, I go on Hulu pretty much, or you know, I might go full One Piece to find it. You know, go pirate. Yeah, that's true, and yeah, that's the only thing I go to Crunchyroll for. For, like, unless it's new releases, anything else, I'm watching the English dub. Shout out to them they released all of Naruto on there too. I used to watch it on Hulu, but Hulu had ads and everything I paid for ad free and it still had ads on freaking Naruto, which is crazy. I do need to catch up on the boys as well. So, yeah, I need to know real quick.
Speaker 1:so the boys, and then there's a spinoff, I believe, right yeah, gen V is based on a college where some super powered kids are learning to control their powers and also getting an education made in the hopes of joining the seven. So what you're going to do is you watch the first three seasons of the boys, then you stop watch jim v season one, then watch uh Boys season 4 and then, when season 2 of GMB come out this year, you watch that and then the final season of the Boys that's exactly what I wanted to know, because I finished season 2, I was about to start season 3.
Speaker 4:I didn't know if I should start season 3.
Speaker 1:No, do season 3, then GMB, then season 4. Alright, cool, that's good, I get to binge the whole season then that's great.
Speaker 4:No, I'll do season three, then Gen B, then season four. All right, cool, that's good. I get to binge the whole season, then that's great. Yeah, I was going to Google it. When I seen this was on the docket I was like, yes, perfect time to ask. I literally just finished season two last night.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, Like bro, yeah, like season two, like definitely good, but like bro, season three and onward, Like okay, I'm going to admit without spoiling too much, Season four it's kind of a slow burn. To season five it's still good, but a slow burn. But season three, oh, that's when things get crazy.
Speaker 4:That's where you want to be at, and I'm realizing that I thought Homelander was All Might, but he not All Might. He not All Might. He a villain. He's definitely a villain, bro.
Speaker 1:Oh, you thought he was.
Speaker 4:All Might. I thought he was bro. He was, so I thought he just was. You know. You know how people get stressed over their job.
Speaker 1:I thought it was like that, but no, nah it's not still like that dog, it's more like imagine him being more like Omni-Man from Avengers, but not as powerful. I mean, I don't know, Maybe there's like a death battle going on between Homelander, Superman and Omni-Man. But like I would say that you're thinking Omni-Man is like the, I would say that, like you thinking Omni-Man is like the good guy, but it all turns out that he had this whole ulterior motive, this whole stuff. It's kind of like. That is where I'm like Sometimes these heroes is like they're not exactly heroes, it's more like it's a job to them.
Speaker 4:And a side note Omni-Man is a minister society, how you gonna kill some people and then give a speech at their funeral Like that's so disrespectful, that's so disrespectful.
Speaker 1:I mean, I mean, is it that's crazy too, because I keep thinking like that's.
Speaker 4:He looks so sad too.
Speaker 1:No, no, no. But listen like you know what's really crazy to me to this day? The fact that when Aaron Yeager was telling all those folks about how his mom got killed by a titan and whatnot, and then Ryder and Virto were just sitting there like, oh damn bro, that sucks. I feel you on that one, bro. I'm like who they just sat there, bold face, poker face Talking about. Oh man, I feel for you, bro.
Speaker 4:That's crazy, isn't it, nigga? You was there, you started this.
Speaker 1:And then Anything.
Speaker 4:Avatar and then, um, anything, avatar, I'm with it, I'm with it. They need to do it. Um, what's the? Now? I got a book right here next to me about the first avatar. Like they need to do it. They are the original showrunners. Gonna be there? Um, are they gonna be behind it?
Speaker 1:or because you know, they they very particular no, uh, can't be because they're gonna do a whole different animation style for it. But like, we'll see. Like we didn't see any like clips yet, so we'll see how it's gonna actually flow. But it's like different production team on this one because it's gonna be like a different animation style, like maybe because you know how movies kind of like pop off a little bit with the action choreography, I'm like hey, who knows, it might give you that demon slayer level of action to where, like this feels all pretty and shit, like you know, with the 3d shots and whatnot.
Speaker 4:We'll see, we'll see when it comes out yeah, and then, uh, solo leveling uh, why did you just want to produce it and make it and put it out before the olympics? They're just even easier. All right, I mean, I understand how long it takes to create stuff. Right, hire more animators, make sure they take mandatory risks, like where I understand this of of working like man. You have a therapist on site, shoot yo um, and then, uh, I I am definitely excited, for I see you wrote Ironheart.
Speaker 1:Ironheart was great.
Speaker 4:Ironheart was great. I loved it. It was excellent. I'm excited for anything robotic in the Marvel Cinematic Universe Because I'm just obsessed with Iron man. I personally have a metal test plate protecting my own heart, so I definitely agree with Tony Stark. And then, yeah, anything Spider-Man. I'm with that too. And I'm excited about Jessica Jones because that's one of my baby mama candidates. She's not quite a baby mama, but she's a baby mama candidate.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's it.
Speaker 2:Tanara, you got something. Sorry, yeah, I just I realized I didn't. I missed the Fallout one.
Speaker 1:I am so ready for season two.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I know, I totally. I somehow my eyes missed it as I was going down the list seeing, like, okay, I know this, I'm so fucking ready, I'm so fucking ready, I am so fucking ready. Oh, my gosh, I talked about it when we just did the One Piece review. I am a shipper. I really hope that Maximus and Lucy find each other again, because my shipper heart ships them so hard. But yeah, I know, and I'm excited that it's also been renewed for season three. Do we know if that's going to be the last one, or are they possibly going to keep going from there?
Speaker 1:They can probably keep going from there. All we know for sure is that we already know for sure. Season two is already in production and season three is already greenlit, but with a whole bunch of storylines that they can pull from the fallout universe, I think they're far from being done yeah, but yeah, it's like I, I would hope they're, they're you know well on pers, ah, word production of season two, considering it comes out in december, it's like they better be right.
Speaker 2:But yeah, no, I no, I'm super excited about that season 2 and then it'll be. I'm curious how long it'll be before season 3, though. But yes, no, I just I saw that I was like, oh, I totally forgot about that. But yeah, no, super excited about that. So ready, probably gonna binge it again, like I did with season 1. I literally I sat there, I watched the whole fucking thing. I'm like, yes, give me more yeah, I feel you.
Speaker 1:Oh, alright, turning back over to Tuck, do you have? Anything else for television news, just that ReZero is amazing fair enough, fair enough, alright, talos back to you, alright, alright, alright.
Speaker 3:Fair enough, alright, tello back to you, alright, alright. So, first and foremost, where to begin. Where to begin? If I tell you, I told you so, folks would y'all be mad at me, because I already knew HBO was gonna get rid of the Cartoon Network cartoons. I knew they were gonna get rid of it why? Because, and Because this is just awful, the premise of Ladies and gentlemen. They feel no one's actually watching.
Speaker 1:You know what's crazy? The season finale, the season 6 finale of Gumball warned us about this. You know how? The whole thing with the students becoming live action versions they think they don't watch cartoons anymore, so we might as well just do all live action.
Speaker 3:Most definitely they're feeling like nobody's watching them. They're kind of removing things from their sight. That's less like okay, hey, this is not getting the traction that we thought it was, so ain't nothing we really can do about that Now do I?
Speaker 4:feel like they should, no.
Speaker 3:But at the same time, can I blame them? Not really, not really. Let's see, uh, the Sanford and Son reboot. I'm an old head. I kind of was raised up a little bit on Sanford and Son, not when it first started, so I'm not that old, uh, but like I was kind of raised up on it a little bit. Um, I want to see how they're gonna go with this. I know there are some people that are like man, if you ain't gonna be able to kind of replicate the original in some shape, form or fashion, don't do it. And while I would agree with certain things, I can't just say, you know, and I can stick with it. So I want to see how they're going to do it. I'm willing to be like, hey, okay, I hear y'all, I hear y'all just a little bit, let me see how this is going to go.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 3:The Cranky Roll. The Cranky Roll thing. I know too many people that are watching it in English dub as well. The Cranky Roll thing oh, I know too many people that are watching it in English dub as well. But I'm going to say at the same time that's because they can't read, they can't do two things at once.
Speaker 1:They don't have that syringon eye train for the show.
Speaker 3:Not that I'm going to say gonna say, okay, hey, you know that, to pick on those with dyslexia and like that, I understand, you know, hey. But at the same time, am I going to tell you read a book, read a book, read a motherfucking book. I am, I'm gonna sit there and tell you read a book, read a book, read a motherfucking book. Y'all need to learn to read, read, pick up and read that part. But I digress still. It's just you should be wanting to try to learn some other languages, listen and then be able to read and understand. Okay, this is saying this if and I'm going to say even if, if it's somewhat translated wrong at least you're getting an understanding of what it should possibly sound like or be close to sounding like. If it's not sounding like that, gotcha. So you know, know, kinda at least Learned somewhat Something. That's how I feel off of that one. Let's see Um, um. I've already talked about Avatar. Like, yes, I'm so ready for it. The you know Legend of Vox Machina. Thank God, I keep telling folks, if you want to be interested in D&D, watch Vox Machina Please. It will help you For those of you that are visual learners. It will help you For those of you that are visual learners, it will help you. I'm amped up for the Cyborg 009. You know I am. I am very much amped up for that Season 3, for Solo Leveling.
Speaker 3:Hey, they had been announcing it. They were announcing it way back. They were talking about pushing it. They were talking about doing it in 2028. The fans were like no, no, no, no. Then they went do it in 2026, 2027. No, give it time, go ahead. Like shoot, like let these people rest. Hey, there you go, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah. Like let these people rest. Hey, there you go, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, let these people rest. I understand.
Speaker 4:There's more animators.
Speaker 3:No, no, no. Like I said, everybody, you can't put, everybody's hands can't be on the same thing all the time, Like that's not how good cooking works.
Speaker 4:They need to all draw. Just put them all into teams. Put them all into teams and have everybody have the same idea of what they're going to do.
Speaker 1:I mean it's the same because, like with the MCU, like what pissed me off about the MCU right now? Like, even though they are putting out some good movies, like the one thing that pissed me off is when the writer is hired on but they don't even bother to watch the last movie where this movie can be related to, where, like, I agree, like bro, like okay, going back to fantastic four, I won't spoil too much, but let's just say that something was supposed to happen in Fantastic Four, based off the Thunderbolts, but something along the lines that didn't happen and I'm like did the writer watch?
Speaker 4:the last movie? I don't know. That's a stone cold fact. Jet Black, you got the Percy Jackson series, but you ain't read none of Rick Riordan books, bruh like that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:Like it's for the best, if you like, have like someone who knows the material at the very least. So like maybe it's for the best not to have too many cooks in the kitchen, because otherwise it would just seem like someone's going to be glossed over details that was displayed in a previous movie, and if you had actually watched the previous entries then maybe your movie would have more of a place in the MCU instead of like kind of derailing from and also kind of like depriving us of the payoff that we were kind of expecting at that point. I mean, that's just me.
Speaker 3:I feel you and that's just. I'm the same way, Like yeah, Like no. That's not how that works.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but you were saying you know, my thing is like uh, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3:You know, my thing is like hey look, can't have everybody enough. Like not everybody cook the same, so you gotta kinda let them chill. Like, let people chill, they done cooked enough. They done cooked for two seasons already. Give them a break. Let them people have a break a little bit. Them a break. Let them people have a break a little bit. Let them work on something else. Let's see what else they put out.
Speaker 1:Gotcha Alright, fair enough you know what I'm saying. I mean, we got other anime coming out. We got, oh man, so many bangers coming out this summer season. Oh, I mean, y'all be alright, yeah, by the time the three years come, it's like, oh man, you know what? We saw all the different shit and that was good. Oh, dang Like. Oh yeah, season three is still lovely, it's coming.
Speaker 3:Let me put my foot in fans' chest again, though, however. Y'all are some ungrateful sons of bitches, because Ironheart's not Iron man. We know this. Yeah, I don this. Yeah, I don't like it. Bitch, shut the fuck up.
Speaker 1:Bro, like the part okay, I like that how you brought that up, because the part where a lot of people were complaining about Ironheart taking a jab at Tony Stark, like, oh, would Tony be Tony if he didn't have Billions of Dollars I'm like, bro, she wasn't trying to make fun of Tony Stark, she's just telling us the reality of things.
Speaker 3:The reality.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like they're both geniuses in their own right.
Speaker 1:But the difference is Tony came from money, so he already had the money and the resources to build the shit that he can build. Meanwhile Riri, coming from a, already had the money and the resources to build the shit that he can build. Meanwhile riri, coming from, you know, from a more humble background, she had to, like, get scholarships and like, do like some, you know, odd job will come, odd job to make her money for her research and whatnot. So, like, to be fair, like she wasn't like saying that oh t Tony wouldn't be Tony if he didn't have his money. More like, not like in an insulting way, but it's more like, let's just be honest, like he got his start from being a um let's be honest a war criminal, like being part of a um company that sells weapons. And if he, if he wasn't tony in that aspect, where, like, if he was in the position that he was in, he wouldn't even be in that cave to make that suit correct, so I'm like you gotta understand like money changes things, like.
Speaker 1:That's why I dare say, if anybody tell me money isn't everything, I'm like bro, like, yes, money isn't everything. But apparently you haven't met enough motherfuckers whose 80 to 90% of their problem requires money as a solution. I bet you've never seen enough of those.
Speaker 3:That's the part that a lot of people don't realize. Okay, hey, look here, you ain't seen enough people that literally would fix their problems.
Speaker 1:You're saying that what we're saying that average income is 50 G's a year. You haven't met enough people who don't even make half that.
Speaker 3:That's all I'm saying, correct, and I wholeheartedly Agree. Um, like I said, trying to finish up, speed, blitz and blitz. Um, let's see Spider Noir. The fact that we're getting Nicolas Cage, spider noir, I literally am just like Alright, you know what I'm happy. Spider Noir, the fact that we're getting Nicolas Cage and Spider Noir, I literally Am just like alright, you know what I'm happy, I am fucking happy and that's gonna cover it for me. Like, yes, I know we got the Wonderfully weird world of Gumball. I understand that. But once again, I let things build up before I just Give my per se on it. I'm not even going to hit them notes on that, I'm going to leave that alone.
Speaker 1:All right. All right, I want to say it's not exactly sports news. I mean not exactly, but it's sports related Sports adjacent, so to speak. Exactly, but it's sports related Sports adjacent, so to speak, where ESPN have decided to cut their tie with pro football hall of famer and media analyst Shannon Sharp, less than two weeks after he reached a settlement in a high profile civil lawsuit accusing him of assault against a now retired OnlyFans model. How you feeling about that, gentlemen, because you got nigger, now I got the rope right here.
Speaker 3:First and foremost, Uncle Shannon can do that yeah.
Speaker 1:Now see, that was like I was saying in the group chat. I would understand if it was Denise Richards or at least a Sydney Sween. The group chat, I'm like I would understand if it was Denise Richards or at least A Sydney Sweeney.
Speaker 3:But I'm like Really, really Shannon, like not like this no, I'm not even Talking about with the woman, I'm talking about as far as with ESPN. Shannon can do better, like he's been doing him and Ocho have been doing. Finally, on, he has his own show, like he's been doing him and Ochoa have been doing.
Speaker 3:Finally On, he has his own show Like by all means this is where I'm fixing to say it like it is hey, go in the onk, do your own damn thing, because you got enough people behind you at this point. They're following you, not ESPN. Yes, we've got people that like ESPN, but they're not following ESPN for ESPN. Off of that shit. They're following ESPN for you.
Speaker 4:So, by all means, I agree, but also I disagree, because that's an easy ass Disney chick that he messed up. That's a hundred million dollars. A hundred million dollars to work three days a week Shit, that's my dream job million dollars $100 million to work three days a week? Shit, that's my dream job. Three days a week, $100 million Easy. He messed it up though, Bro. How old is he? 19?, 20.
Speaker 1:Well, I want to say she was 20 years old with the settlement, but I think he was messing with her. Say, she was 20th as of the settlement, but I think he was messing with her when she was like 18 or something like that.
Speaker 4:And she done retired. She done retired from OnlyFans, bro. That's crazy. That don't make no damn sense. See, monique was right. He should have listened to Monique at the time. Cat Williams was right. Monique was right, he should have listened to them he should have gotten my own.
Speaker 1:Bertha no, no, no. The crazy part is, yes, he should have listened, but the thing is he got mixed up with her before all those reviews, so it's almost like that was a sign saying like hey, hey, um, you better hold on what, you better get out of that situation that you're in right now.
Speaker 4:Like listen, like what k camp said?
Speaker 1:it ain't nothing to that like uh, remember, um also tried to um warn him, but well, you know, I mean to be fair. Like, yeah, like I understand you want the nuclear family dynamic and all that like. So he's not trying to demonize white women, but it's just more like hey, yo like just like what monique said, like get, if it's somebody that's going to hold you down, like someone that's going to cook for you, like rub you, whatever it is, whatever it is that, it is like nothing gets done, but like at the same time it's like come on though, like in this day and age, just don't be surprised if they just really trying to get that check. Yeah, that's a fact. I hate to say it, but sometimes it really do be like that yeah, it's crazy.
Speaker 4:It don't make no sense. I just want to imagine the personal phone call that he had with Stephen A.
Speaker 1:Oh, yeah, that one.
Speaker 4:I really want to hear him and Stephen A on the phone what actually happened. I know Stephen A was going in on him, I just know it. They're legit happened, bro. I know Stephen A was going in on him, I just know it Because they legit friends, bro and like, I put you on my shoulder, I put my neck out for you and you going to do some dumb shit like this, not over no girl.
Speaker 1:I'm like bro, that's unfair. What did Bill Williams say? All at one time, like yo, leave that young thing alone. Ain't no chance now when she's gone, something like that.
Speaker 4:I don't know, I'm just fucking around. Yeah, just something like that.
Speaker 1:Something like that, but tell us you want to weigh in on this.
Speaker 1:Oh no, I'm good, I'm good, okay, I got you All right. Tech, you got anything you want to add on to it? No, okay, all right, let's move on to gaming news. And oh man, there's. This is like a bunch of shit. Like I usually say that gaming news is like usually the craziest part, but I don't know about this time around. But we'll see. So we'll start off with this. Nintendo confirms that Mario and Princess Peach are just friends. Like, there's just no romance going on, no romantic chemistry going on. You know, they're just friends. There's just no romance going on, no romantic chemistry going on. They're just friends. We're going to be cool with that, jb. I'm sorry, I'm going to let you finish.
Speaker 4:I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
Speaker 3:Listen.
Speaker 4:JB, I did my research on this. First mario came out in 1984 is currently 2025.
Speaker 1:So you saying he's been saving this for all these years and they're just friends I mean like, oh well, you know, just because you saved my life, I'm not obligated to Like. Oh well, you know, just because you saved my life, I'm not obligated to open the door. You know what I'm saying. Like I mean, okay, you know, fair enough. Like that's on me for having my expectations. You know like, oh, you think, just because you saved me for 20, 30, like for a decade, that I'm obligated to have a relationship with. And then Mario's looking at me like I was like kind of to have a relationship with, and then Mario is looking at Baldy like kind of.
Speaker 4:I want to point to a video by a great maker of film named Hot Damn I Rock from YouTube, and he prophesied this would happen and he created aied this would happen.
Speaker 1:He created a video for you and pleasure oh good Lord, I need to see this video.
Speaker 3:I'm going to send it in the group chat. Oh, why are we going back here? It's important.
Speaker 1:Oh, let me see I'm going gonna look at it oh, this series here.
Speaker 3:Please, before you go look at it, go finish up game, because I promise you, I want you to understand who, who for those of you in the know and you know who hot damn IROC is. You know what we talking about, you know where we're going and when I tell you Luigi was always right, luigi and Mario correction, no, mario was always right. Is this Luigi and Luigi is who he is? Yeah, yeah, yeah. This is going to this right here. Never in all my days the prophecy came true, baby you ain't seen it, bro.
Speaker 4:We got to do a reaction video. We got to Don't watch it. We got to do a reaction video. We gotta don't watch it. We gotta do a reaction video, man. But I kind of want to watch it now but, oh my god, no, just watch it. But, dang, I really wish I could see your look with your face.
Speaker 1:Oh, I'm so mad we'll do a reaction videos at some point in the future.
Speaker 4:He's been simping for all these years. This nigga supposed to be plumbing.
Speaker 1:Laying down that pipe, so to speak.
Speaker 4:Man, she should let Luigi hit.
Speaker 1:Nah, but hold on, he got daisies, so I'm like I don't know, you know.
Speaker 4:Luigi got a mansion.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, I heard it's pretty lit for a Halloween party. You know what?
Speaker 3:I'm saying it's stupid.
Speaker 1:Okay, you know what, let's keep it moving with the gaming news, but I'll get back to you. I don't want to talk about this shit. But, yeah, Mario's keep it moving with the gaming news, but I'll get back to you all later on with this shit. But like, yeah, you know, yeah, Mario and Peach just friends, man, that's okay. Um, Something about Honkai uh Universe.
Speaker 1:I saw Kiana and Blade reveal during a live concert for Honkai Star Realms' second anniversary. Cool, cool, cool Uh. War Horse universe. I started on kiana and blade revealed during a live concert for hong kai star rails second anniversary. Cool, cool uh. Warhorse studios kingdom come, deliver, as two has sold three million copies in three months, with over 10 million copies of kingdom hearts deliver and sold to date. So pretty good. On warhorse, uh, gear to war is making his PlayStation debut. So a lot of people say, oh no, it's the end of exclusivity. I'm like um, what do y'all want? Because some of y'all were saying that y'all love exclusivity and some of y'all were saying that y'all don't. And I'm like are y'all the same people or just two different people? Like, what do y'all want? Like I swear to God, sometimes with humans the goal is to post a shit wherever it's convenient, but like you know, I'm not going to harp on that too much.
Speaker 1:Anyways, clear, obscure Expedition 33 has already made history as the highest rated user score game on Metacritic. Remember this old news between the summer of 2025, between May and July. So if some of this news is a little dated, I apologize. We're just playing catch up. It has now made a significant margin and now Sample has announced that in just 12 days after launching the game, it sold 2 million copies. It was a success. Cool, cool, cool. Youtuber 2 Crispy has managed to successfully translate a secret in-game language in com Bonanza before the game was even out. Okay, mobile Suit. Gundam Seed Battle Destiny Remastered Is already Out for PC and Nintendo Switch. So check that Out, see if you might like it. And after Nine years, behavior interactive Is finally bringing Five Nights at Freddy's To Dead by Daylight, and Matthew Lewis is going to be voice acting in that. So very good. Xbox and Lamborghini has partnered to create a one-of-one card to represent both PlayStation and Xbox, with special design that will also be made available for fans and for the Horizon 5. Cool, cool, cool.
Speaker 1:Marvel 1943 Rise of Hydra, the World War II era action game co-starring Captain America and Black Panther, is being delayed to 2026. And a new Pokemon, gen T, you know, pokemon, za, z, alpha, whatever you want to call it, surfacing details On the starters there's going to be a battle Gimmick to reason more, and all that. Pokemon, gales and Tides. Well, no, it's just. You know, you know it is Gen T, gen T, so it might be called Pokemon, gales and Tides. The starters might be a Fire Gales and Tides. The starters might be a fire goat, a water octopus and a grass snail. There's going to be 16 main islands and 150 plus smaller islands. There's Gigaxes it's like a mashup of Giga and Axis gimmick. Where's the island guardians? You know, like Pokemon Legends, arceus, and there's going to be a ground-type Charmander. So yeah, gen 10, pokemon, gales and Tide. That might be the title. Who knows, we might see later on down the line. Honestly, I got confused with Z Alpha, but that's not the case. But there is some interesting details, like interesting developments, like why they, why y'all did that to my boy dragon with that mega evolution, because you got, you got him looking like dumbo the dragon dog. Oh, good lord. But let's keep it moving, because I got a few more things to say on gaming news. The PC version of Sailor Blade launched on Steam and we received screenshots of it in Hearts 4. It's still in production.
Speaker 1:Cyberpunk Orion is a sequel to Cyberpunk 2077. It's a nice city and here's what's coming on it A brand new map, multiple cities, including one inspired by Chicago, a main city that has gone the wrong direction, kind of like Gotham-like shit, more realistic, lifelike crowds, unreal Engine. So it did, which was what? 13 years even during the concept years, it was like 13 years. Um, that cyberpunk 27 7 was doing all the just for the launch, the way that they did. Okay, and the playstation stars loyalty program no longer accept new members as of now, while existing members will still be able to earn points until July 23rd, which is past by now, and redeem them until November 3rd of next year. So, ah well, that is it for gaming news. Well, that's all I got. Tup, you got anything you want to add on to all this? Anything to say on gaming news?
Speaker 4:Super Mario Brothers.
Speaker 3:You will never be nothing more than a player to ass.
Speaker 4:Nigga. I'm trying to tell you.
Speaker 1:Okay, okay, I've seen that, I've seen that video, okay, I've seen that one. But I was like, hold on, I need to go back in.
Speaker 3:There's more. There's even a part with her, with Peach and Daisy.
Speaker 4:I got you.
Speaker 3:Yeah, there's an entirety of this thing Like yeah, ooh, this right here, it brings it full circle.
Speaker 4:I'm going through besides. Nah, I ain't really got nothing on none of the games besides Pokemon, of course, pokemon I'm really excited for anything Pokemon. I I don't know. I think it started with my nintendo ds. I think, yeah, that's where it started at my love for pokemon. Well, besides watching it, like playing it, man, starting out with uh squirtle, because I never started with pikachu, because fuck Pikachu, I don't like Pikachu, because not evolving just isn't a thing for me, I'm not understanding why you don't evolve Like that's crazy.
Speaker 1:I mean it came close, but Ash was like no, I like you the way you are.
Speaker 4:Look at Ash trying to stop somebody from being most stronger. See, that's why you ass was like no, I like you the way you are Get ass Trying to stop somebody from being more stronger.
Speaker 1:See, that's why you took forever to be the world's greatest trainer 20 years, by the way, at sun and moon, by the way, you finally won a league. And then, next thing, you know, it's like oh well, now that I've won one league, I'll just go ahead and be the champion of it all, and then after that, we're just going to go ahead and fuck off and just let some new protagonists have their reigns, because you know, I'm tired, y'all. I'm a 30-year-old man in a 10-year-old body. I'm tired.
Speaker 3:And what if this case closed God that? What is? This Case closed God.
Speaker 4:That's a crazy word. Only one truth prevails, but no, I ain't got nothing else on game.
Speaker 3:Alright so go ahead and have the war, alright, alright, cool. So I ain't got nothing more to say about the Mario and Princess Peach, because I want you to understand that's a rewrite Of history, because even before now, he was saving Princess Peach, who was his love interest. So they just did that right now to rewrite history because, as of late, a lot of people got tired of him going to go save Princess Peach and it was like oh girl, who is in the Donkey Kong games, why not go with her? She loves you more anyway. So, yeah, yeah, we're gonna leave that alone. With that said, anyway, I'm not even gonna get on Honkai Star Real right now, because I want you to understand Gamba, gamba, gamba, gamba, gamba, gamba, gamba, gamba, gamba, gamba. I want you to let me, let me, let me start giving y'all some intervention around here here. Hey, get off the game. Them banners are not calling you. I understand that you feel like I need to empty my wallet. I gotta get this one. No, no, you don't, no, you don't. Go play something else. Go play something else. I promise you go play something else. It's gonna be okay. It's gonna to be okay. It's going to be okay, good boy.
Speaker 3:Ooh, the fact that Gears of Now, the fact that Gears of War, made its PlayStation debut, y'all can suck a dick. When I wanted it on PlayStation, y'all were just like, no, it's exclusive. Now it's oh, we're no longer exclusives around here. Oh, okay, bitch, cool beans, cool, cool beans. Uh, I don't need to do a fuck about Nintendo Switch at the current moment because it's gonna piss me off.
Speaker 3:Well, I'm talking about Switch 2 at least, because y'all niggas lied. Y'all niggas was like no, we're gonna glitch everything out, we're gonna do this, that and the third, trying to keep hackers from doing this. But hackers showed y'all, wait a minute, we can still do this shit. Y'all lied Bitch, oh, oh no. And now y'all just made. Y'all basically just told them okay, try to unbrick it, bitch. Now they're fixing to unbrick this shit and if they can unbrick their own system, oh shit, yeah, y'all done. For they don't know why you tried this. You should have just let it go, left it alone, really and truly left it alone. If y'all hadn't have said none of that nonsense, y'all wouldn't be able to have the message all in. Sometimes it's best to keep your mouth shut. That's all. Sometimes it's best to keep your mouth shut, jesus.
Speaker 1:You're just inviting Challenger to that point.
Speaker 3:Now here's where I'm fixing to get involved, and this is where I take off the grumpy Gundam hat and I put on the Pokemon Trainer hat. So so, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages, first and foremost, listen to what we said earlier. Listen to what was said earlier. The key word here is rumor, rumor your leakers, else, we have not confirmed anything right now. Don't start this. Don't be like, oh my God, this was said here and no, this is not here yet, this ain't here yet, we don't know yet. All right, cool. That being said, these are just rumors and speculations of what may, may not happen, what something should look like and everything else in between. I have to say that because I don't want people to be like oh man, but this was it. No, don't miss this through words, because folks love to miss this through words when it comes to Pokemon. That aside, that aside, this right here I will definitely try to cover as far as theories, I will try to cover it with any of the fellow members of the zone in a podcast type situation where we can go through and figure out what would be what and everything else, because this right here in its own, in its own right, is its own section. That right is its own, is its own thing. That can be talked about for hours on. I will tell y'all this as far as there possibly being a new gimmick, maybe as far as it being named Gigaxis no, because they're just trying to play out with Gigantamax and stuff. That may not be it. Yeah, just chill for the moment.
Speaker 3:I know some of y'all are hungry for actual good Pokemon games. I am too, but you gotta wait. The other thing we hungry for is Kingdom Hearts 4. Nomura, nomura, nomura, as one of your children, I beg of thee, please, in my lifetime, do you not know how much we cried for KH3?
