Welcome back another episode of hyper Heroes here on hyper rabbit power go very excited be talking about some of the stuff it rarely happens that on the day we record big news is announced. Thank God because I would have hated to have to wait a whole week to talk about this sure amazing casting for Suicide Squad. But before we do that, well, you know that we are also doing our Titans podcast we recorded that tonight as well that is now available exclusively on patreon for part of the Piper homies, tear the $5 tier or any tier above that you'll have immediate access to that. That's a weekly thing that we just started its episode 2 rows and we're super excited to to continue talking about that show and on top of that. We had a very special guest on that podcast who is now joining us for this lovely episode. Matt Acevedo is here. Hello. Everyone double dipping is double dipping great. Haven't had you on in a long time. I know man, I think the last time you were a guest on this show was we're at the old house. Yeah, that's crazy, which has been that long. It's kind of amazing how quickly we've already been in the studio. It's already been we're like we're going to be what's nine and a half months almost a year. We're going to it's going to go really quick baby and it's nuts to me that ye have not asked you to come back. Well, it's good to be back then, you know life's busy and less crazy and it's amazing. Yeah, like how many weeks already gone by and it's like whenever we come back together. It's like no time has passed. It's like dude. We're just jump right back into it. And we're hoping that if all this podcast stuff goes really really well. You'll be able to hear a lot more of Matt. Yeah and a lot more of our other wonderful friends in the Of hyper Heroes family that we will frequently call upon in case again week to week. We have scheduling stuff come up and Augustine could be on the episode today, but he did watch tighten securely back for episode 3 of the podcast and the plan is for me Adam and Auggie to tackle Titans, but moving forward potentiality talking about other TV shows Matt watch has a bunch of TV. We've got a blue friends at watch a bunch of great different shows and I would love to be able to say that hyper Heroes is sort of tackling a broader thing. That is what like the three of us can normally do whilst. Kind of maintaining that that that feel in that community and everything. So yes, I so thank you. Again. Matt for being here. Can we pledged to you about this stuff about to get into yes, but the Titans podcast was dope though. Super fun, man. Yeah, we talked about. Yeah, so and by the way, if you're listening to the podcast version, you know, we're on Soundcloud iTunes Spotify all that major stuff, you know, come over to YouTube check out the video version or vice versa. If you've only watched the video and you're always wondering like I wish this was a podcast. What do they look like? It is it is a podcaster. It's on SoundCloud we put it up every single week and you know if we fall behind a little bit we always put the episodes up no matter what actually did a poll on Twitter and I asked people if they like the full episode if they like little excerpts or if they want both. It was like a landslide vote 96% or something was like that. Just give us the full episode of Mike great. It means I don't have to do any more work. Thank you. People will drive around longer before getting to work just to finish out the hour-long episode. I've done that. I've been I've been guilty of doing that. Yeah, no guilt man. No good. No good. Found around the block here and you're gonna need to take at least three more to find traffic and we're parking anywhere Nellie's that's true. That's true. But let's get into this huge announcement. There's been a lot of speculation a lot of teasing happening a lot of rumors that have been going around as to who is actually going to be in The Suicide Squad and I feel like with throughout the last like six months. We've gone a little things here and there some of the people who are returning some of the trades reporting like, oh we got news that this actor is going to be in it and that actor is going to be in it, but James gonna Officially announced today the entire 24 cast Ensemble For Suicide Squad some returning some new cool. Let's go through them. So some of the ones that I'm happy to see returning. Yes Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn Jai Courtney as Boomerang. Yes, Joel Kinnaman is Rick flag and Viola Davis as Amanda Waller. That's the one on which you have to have that's have to have Amanda Waller in this movie. I mentioned this earlier today, but the thing that makes me most excited is probably Viola Davis and the returning cast because however you feel about Said Squad, I think that we can all agree. It had a stellar cast it didn't have these and these building blocks of like and I feel like correct me if I'm wrong. This is really the first sort of True Blue sequel to like one of the movies in the sort of DC films slate since Man of Steel. Yeah, Batman versus Superman wasn't quite a Man of Steel to it was like something was part of the DC Justice League was sort of like a part 3 and also kind of something new. So everything up to this point has been Suicide Squad Aquaman Wonder Woman Shazam. They're all kind of been part 1 so this this the thing that's most exciting and for me the thing that is like the most promising about even taking on an Endeavor like this and trying to do a shared universe and trying to do a franchises like bringing in new directors bringing in new writers keeping that same cast moving the story forward. What is the potentiality of the story and it makes me happy because I'm like, I hope that that that Warner Brothers whoever else won't ultimately end up abandoning this continuity just because maybe it's not a successful at other things. Meanwhile like the Joker's coming out and it's And alone and it costs way less and it's getting a lot of critical Acclaim. Yeah, and it's probably going to make bank. I hope that we get both. I hope that the Warner Brothers is able to go we want to do these sort of, you know, different different Standalone movies. We want to do things maybe like the Robert Pattinson Batman the matter. He's Batman will be really not concerned with any continuity while still being like Oh got this other thing. We have Gal Gadot. We have Jason Momoa. We have naturally vitek relieved. I we have James Gunn Margot Robbie. We're going to see sooner than this. That was super exciting. So like that's the thing that makes me really excited and I think Viola Davis is Amanda Waller was my favorite thing about yeah, she's solid like the character itself Amanda Waller and favorite DC characters and could mean so many different things. I mean, I think very fairly often compared to a Nick Fury. Oh well, like the type of person who can just pull strings behind the scenes is always better for worse For Better or For Worse and such an interesting character to me when it's like in a big superhero, you know, bombastic Universe with larger-than-life characters. Somebody like Amanda Waller stand up to like a Batman and had Batman be like we call her the wall like that. She's so great in the Animated Series. Yes, unbelievably good. That's what I'm most excited about. But then of course all the rest of the cast is like, yeah great too. It's such a mystery man. Looking at this castle Yeah, you know so many names I never thought I would see in like ever innocence is quad casting like yeah, and I mean also going back to like, you know, some of the returning members Jai Courtney is boomerang. I'm I like oh, yeah, not that I'm not not that I don't like Jai Courtney, I think he's fine. But I think I'm Boomerang. He was really able to just be himself. Yeah, and that was that translated. So incredibly well to the character Boomerang and I and I want to see this character potentially show up in like a Flash movie that has her Miller. So I'm excited to see that character back. I like Joel Kinnaman a lot I think is also very strong actor. I think is Rick flag. I think there was a lot more potential for him to do more stuff. He just felt like a very by-the-book like Soldier. Yeah. I would like to see a little bit more character and I think with somebody like James And and and the writing and and the I think also just probably the tone of this movie is going to be different but similar to the first Suicide Squad and there's been a lot of talk of like well, is it a sequel or is that a reboot? Obviously when you have returning members, yes, it is a sequel at the same time. I think it's I don't want to say it's like a soft reboot. But I think Suicide Squad can be very much treated like an anthology Series where it can be new card every movie. That's what it is. That's what it is. Yeah it is. Yeah and I think depending on the mission. Mission that's your lineup is going to change based on like what mission and scenarios happening in the world but characters like Amanda Waller and Rick flag can sort of be like the through line. Yeah, Chill from movie to movie kind of like that's fun Gordon and Alfred in the old Batman movies. It's the same actor that gives you that continuity, but it's always like the cast itself is always changing. Yeah, so that excites me and like with having Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn back. Will she be a bigger character a smaller character? Who knows? She's going to be a prominent character in Birds of Prey. So I'm excited about seeing a Those returning cast members and I really really hope that especially with Jai Courtney. I don't want to see that character died. I am calm. I want to see those characters live. I think boomerangs gonna live to the end of this movie. Yeah, because Captain Boomerang and other characters like Deadshot and and now sort of often Harley Quinn are such staple of The Suicide Squad. Yeah. It's all the rest of them that just know people especially like Harley Quinn for is going to be like a big part of movie kind of like the selling point, you know, it's like she's like there. I don't know Iron Man early there, but she's like she's become kind of a pillar of the DCM. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, and because you have someone like Margot Robbie who's such a strong actor in that role and the way she played it was so beloved, even though it is like a very Twisted character. Yes, it's him. He will lend itself to Future films and especially Birds of Prey like, what's the evolution going to be of her as a character now abandoning The Joker and all that sort of stuff. Yeah. Yeah, but let's talk about this crazy cast that they've that they've assembled. This is sick. So the other cast members Without milk in as polkadot man, which we know has been confirmed John Cena as Peacemaker, which still not sure if that is for sure going to be the character that he's going to play Joaquin co-ceo Nathan Fillion. No clue who he's going to play in turn. That's what people are saying. I would be fine if he's locked until your bank with the fairest jacket, you know, your parents are jacket like hey, it's me and he want mailing Inge who she actually in she actually played a character in Wonder Woman. She was one of the warriors on the mascara. So people are speculating. Maybe she's gonna play a new God like a new role and it will be a new God could this time maybe into Ava Duvernay is New Gods movie? Oh, yeah. Did she have a character named in Wonder Woman? I think she did but I'm not I don't remember what it is. Flula Borg will be in this movie. Sean Gunn Juan Diego Botto storm Reed who was in your one of your most blenders sometime. I love it. Love. Armory of UV Davidson taika waititi which makes me so who doesn't love take a wild. Guess come on, Alice Braga Steve. Agee is going to be doing the voice of king shark to naxi KAC Danielle melchior as ratcatcher Peter Capaldi Julio Ruiz Jennifer Holland, Idris, Elba who was originally cast as Deadshot and they ended up changing that up. He's gonna be playing some sort of a new character. And then Michael Rooker is going to be in the movie like Peter Capaldi the classic. What Michaels Gunner? Yeah, come on, Jennifer Holland. She had a small role in bright burn. She was good. Yeah, and I'm like because I follow James gone and and I follow my Instagram and stuff. Like I see her all the time because they're together. They're together. Yeah, I'm like, oh, that's great. I it's nice to see her and she does it. She's a great actor. Yeah. It'll dry. It looked like I love the fact that like James Gunn works with a lot of the same same people, you know, not cool. It's not a big group. I'd like, you know, I love seeing Rook. I love seeing his brother and school that we brought tyka into this whole thing to so and Idris obviously. So it's it's funny to hear people say like there's a lot of Marvel people in this movie. I'm like, yeah, but the very talented come on your favorite actors. Yeah, there's no exclusivity. Sorry, they're actors. Yeah, there's no excuse like that. Let me tell you hate. You're going to hate Comic Book history. There's a lot of crossing over writers and artists. Yeah. Yeah. It's totally real right now is a big like flip, you know for sure like Bend is over on like Actually, look at Kirby the things he did was he created for Marvel and DC. Come on. Yeah, man, come on, come on. So, you know and what are their All in This Together? Yeah, I think are just helpless going to be Manchester black Oto be able to have his gorgeous accent his natural accent. He'll be powerful but not to put like pretty powerful character but still at a level where it's like you could you could be that powered and Beyond The Suicide Squad. Yeah, like God level another man level and he's black Superman. Yeah. That's what he says. I feel like I have no What Peter Capaldi would be I love Peter Capaldi? I think he's a fantastic doctor. A lot of people's favorite. Aw, dude. He's so good. He's such a great doctor. I don't know. What is going to be. How do you ever been in a superhero movie? I've never seen I didn't think so. I can't recall any any so nobody is I think doctor who might be like the biggest sort of like franchisee type of thing that you have done and Paddington true. What's it'll probably is gray series. It's a lovely hydrogen is great. Paddington is such like unsung like underrated Joy. Is this so good a man. Don't skip it. So I mean, I think it's I think it's really hard to speculate who all of these carrot all these actors could be playing because yeah, and it doesn't just like you were saying it doesn't have to just necessarily be super villains in the DC Universe, right? It could be people associated with the squad or with task force in the movie or Amanda Waller or yeah, or they're just characters in The Moon. Yeah. Yeah, like Nathan Fillion could play like a new character who is a guard at Belle Reve prison exactly. We could end up, you know, like just the same way that like Ike Barinholtz played again. Yeah for you know site. Got his Twitter. So he's a character. I don't know and you know, so so yeah, I don't want to get too like specula Tori right right comic book characters are because suicide squad has you such a crazy. Yeah Esther and different, you know, Manchester black was on the squad at one point. So that's what only reason I was like. Oh, that's what if if you could pair up an actor with a character from the comics. It doesn't have to be someone specifically from The Suicide Squad Ross, right? Yeah. It could be just someone from the DC Universe. Is there one particular actor character combo now, I do really like the Nathan Fillion as Hal Jordan, I think that's some guys first of all that's not always wanted and he a voice them in. Yeah. Yeah. I mean that would be great people were saying the Tigers going to play the same character from Green Lantern and I'm like, no, you know, Amanda Waller's dead in that timeline exactly am a basset. Thank you. Sorry. I don't know man, maybe like I don't know. Who do I love on The Suicide Squad Davidson, I could see him being like, I don't know like like as as or something. Yeah, he's lonely. That's good. Actually. Yeah toots - yeah tax to meet do we have zombies are to be day that we had size in the BCE you yet? No, I don't think so. Right. Yeah. We got him on Gotham. We had them on in the Batman Dark Knight trilogy. But yeah, I don't think he's been on this yet. So yeah, and it's a good one. I think I'd maybe like Michael Rooker to like voice a character. Yeah, obviously, I don't know it looks something like big CG monster. Yeah. No man may be Clayface out all but I also feel like then if you do that. That you lose the the aspect of Clayface. We're like, he's a good actor shrewd, you know could be a person a character actor complain that could be like a lot of different types of my co-workers. Just my coworker. That's it. Yeah, that's got to let us be Michael Rooker. I made a clay my face is Clay. That's it. I don't know. Oh my God, it's gonna take my body parts. Look at this. One thing that I do love that James Gunn when he tweeted this out. He said don't get too attached. Thank you. Get to attachment which you know, I mean, yeah, that wouldn't surprise me if in within 30 minutes of this movie for people. I like a sir death. Yeah. I mean we saw it happen in the first Suicide Squad unfortunately, but I have full faith that like James Bond were able to treat characters with enough love or will love them. When they when they die will be sad but will be like they were Gravely most like yeah as opposed to like those like two seconds of screen time. Yeah, you feel bad for the Actor was mushy banana vehicles in all the trailers not like well, he's not even in these Comic-Con panel. If you know, this is gonna be a fun movie. Yeah, it'd be great. I'm really excited about it and it starts filming later this month in Atlanta Georgia, and then I'm going to move over to Panama. So I as excited as I am about the cast some people point. I was like man, I hope we really do get a photo soon which I would like that though. I will say I wasn't crazy about the reveal of The Suicide Squad in 2016. Yeah that very much felt like Well, we have to do it because we're going to be filming Outdoors. Everyone's going to see us right and instead of there being shitty phone photos. Like let's get a production still but I would like to see something that's a little more stylized and gives us a little bit more flavor with the movies going to be because I thought that's still compared to what we got in the movie and granted that maybe we went through so many things. Yeah, it was such a difference between day one and then release date this I feel like because James Gunn is so specific with the look and the feel of his movies the first still of All the characters I think is going to have to really represent of like oh, this is what we should expect when this movie comes out in August of next year 2021. I guess that's so far. Long time. It's crazy. It'll be here before we know it. It will be before we know exactly what we got a ball of Disney plus to watch until then. Oh my God. Yeah, we're thinking of Disney plus damn the Netherlands damn them. So apparently the Netherlands got this like two month exclusive preview of everything coming to Disney plus and It's a huge lineup. It's like over 46 different Marvel properties cool and spanning from animation to live action and I put out a tweet. I think it was yesterday the day before and I said like hey don't get too excited because not all this stuff might be available in your territory at launch the point because I think that when they talked about what was coming to Disney Plus in terms of the MCU, it's not that many movies. It's going to be awhile before all of them show up. Whereas the Netherlands they have all three Iron Man movies all three. In America movie Black Panther Guardians one and two and then one and tooth or all three Thor movies Doctor Strange black panther all the Avengers movies up to Infinity War. They don't have any game on there yet. Whereas I think here. I think it's debuting with like I think it's the first three Iron Man movies Captain Marvel be on there and then like a few movies throughout it doesn't have everything. So and a lot of people got excited about all the animated stuff. There's like the X-Men series from the 90s Spider-Man a bunch of stuff from like the pre like pre 90s. That's great. So there's a A really really cool content on here. But I like I just want to warn people in the states share another territories like not all of this stuff might be available where you are a launch so I would hate for people to see this and get super super excited. Yeah, and then when it launches they're like what the hell I was like thing two months ago had up all the stuff on. Yeah. Yeah, this is great. But it's already me as a completionist. What am I going to say? This is already but why what are we missing? What are we missing in terms of I mean in terms of animated know terms of the movies. Oh 3D MCU now when that yes, of course, of course, of course buddy. Yeah the first thing the first thing I went to yeah said movies: I started going through the canal that like the chronological release of the Incredible Hulk Incredible Hulk and I was like the Spider-Man's are there. Yeah. So already I'm like Cena here's the thing about I don't like physical media. I like all my stuff streaming. Yeah, I'm definitely getting dizzy plus because it going to have all of it wrong. It's not going to have. Oh no. No, you know and I guess of his own way. Sirius is Netherlands, but it's like oh, it seems likely it's owned by other Studios. We're not going to have the Incredible Hulk on the now again, you're probably watching them. I don't care. Okay, that's fine. But it's fine, please but like from yeah, like for us it's like no I want to see that if I want to see the Marvel Cinematic Universe on Disney plus. Yeah. Well the whole thank you if you were banking on this thing to be like well now this is going to be my collection. I save space I say money I buy this thing and all the MCU will be on there and I'm like, no. No that's only not work. That's only going to work for like Disney animated movies for sure. And honestly, I mean, like I said you do that and then and even then, You'll get the thing. And again if you're a completionist and they'll probably be people. I'm sure most people on Earth do not care but like you'll log into the thing and you're like well wait, where's the where's the three Caballeros movie from 1945 or whatever like during the War years of the oh, there's a bunch of stuff missing. Where's where's this? Where's that? Where's Peter and the Wolf, where's all this others? You know, there's all this other stuff. Yeah, where's Fantasia 2000, where's you know, there's gonna be things that's like not high on the priority list. They'll probably have your lion kings and your Aladdin's and your snow white, but like the you know, like they might not have Black Cauldron it might not have Oliver and Company. That I have will be stuff on there that all I'm saying is this this service looks fantastic. I'm absolutely already got it say I got it. I'm in it for three years, but it for three years and it but I hope that with this like first of all people can't complain that they don't have everything exactly like what we're talking about. Yeah, and it's a thing of like you're paying it so few months. Yeah, like if you wanted there to be a place where they were empty every MCU movie should have been buying the Blu-ray since they've been coming out nose, and that's all I'm saying. Time to catch up on all that stuff. So for me, it's cool that they're all going to be there. But like I got my Blu-rays I got my movies. I'm set and I even have as many of the TV the MCU TV shows live action that they released on Blu-ray, but it is cool that they have the rest of it. And in terms of old cartoon shows. That's absolutely very cool. But I saw another thing somebody online was saying I really hope that Disney plus puts the X-Men animated series and maybe some other ones in like production order because not even The DVDs they sell went to the trouble of putting them like in the in the right order instead of like whenever it was aired or whatever. So it's like we're not done in time. Yes, put other stuff like there's to put like so I really hope therefore that as well. Yeah. I know a thing I was asking for months ago was like put Buzz Lightyear of Star Command on their the cartoon short intro is great. I really liked it. I went and actually recently finished watching all of it and I watch it in the correct order. Yeah, and you can do the same thing with Star Wars Rebels more Clone Wars. Yeah. What I was going to say and I'm like it would be cool. If there were two options if like you click on clone wars, and it's a cool. Do you want to watch this logical route like in Timeline order or the way that are do you usually go the way that it aired. There you go or timeline order. That's cool. And then it would be the cool new way for people to see maybe a show that they had seen before so like again X-Men animated series. I know they're never going to do this because they probably won't do this with the MCU but would be so dope to be like I'm doing the MCU from the beginning to end and then you get to Iron Man 3. And then the next thing in your queue is like H to Shield episode 1 That would be amazing to watch HDTV she'll be so and then every time it's like poop Thor 2 times gamma watched or to cool. You keep watching look Winter Soldier all cool and that would be dope but that there's potential but yeah, that's like I think we're a ways away from that but that ways away. I think really believe that but I think that's such a good idea. We know that works at Disney. What do we know Matt who we gotta get the message out there? Let him know and again, I ain't mad at him for not having everything. That's all I'm asking for. But what I'm saying is to build a community it would be cool to have little options like that. It'd be pretty good. It was so funny when I was doing when I was with when I was putting this together. I was like, I don't know how I don't want to throw mad under the bus here how much Ken matz say about all this like, I can't say. Yeah, that's a but all of this to say. I'm very excited. But again, You're saying Adam don't get mad if stuff doesn't show up. Yeah launches in your area. And if you are the type of person that's like oh how I wanted. Everything should have bought it and physical media wins again and like, you know, I think that I guess I'm like I said, all right, you want the thing that I think you did a great job. You did a great. Thanks Rachel. Thanks man. Thanks man. The thing that I will say, I don't work for Disney, but I did go to d23 and one of the things that they that they did say was when things end this on. Okay hand me a paper towel paper towel. That's smart. That's good for the environment. Just let me grab that wash that let me take you can wipe your butt with and then, you know, watch him read, you know, anyway, when I was at 23, they did say that one stuff does show up on Disney plus it will permanently stay there. There's no there's no rotating content. So I think yeah stuff might not be there not everything will be there day one. But I think a year after that you're going to see how much stuff new and old will get put on Disney plus but I am a little sad though the fact that like yeah Incredible Hulk and Spider-Man movies won't be on there and it's like summer again. They'll be people who like fun good. I don't care. I don't like those Spider-Man. All right shut up, and then I'm not talking about. Um, yeah about the person who does care about that like yeah that completion missed. Yeah, and that goes for all the other decals for Star Wars a ghost Disney stuff that goes for I hope this I hope someday that like the theatrical Cuts will It on their Star Church is really interesting on there that's on Post-its cream pink cap it and it when you go to Star Wars that has stuff like broken down based on like it was live action or animated girl, whatever whatever and then says the Darth Vader collection has like Rogue one episodes, four five and six and then I think it has like Rebels on there like yeah. Oh we're going to we're going to we're making interesting collection and play this now. Yeah, it's that experimental with are watching, you know, if you couldn't, you know, throw some influence around there and be like, hey if you guys could do stuff in the chronological order. Beginning to end that we do. Yeah, I will whisper through the cracks and speaking of Disney plus some exciting casting if it happens it in confirm that this is happening but they did say that there is an offer on the table for hailee Steinfeld to placate Bishop in the Hawkeye this series for Disney is amazing casting if this goes through I think that was my Pitchfork ate fish up I think. Oh really? Yeah, I thought Like after I saw her at Transformers, I was like dude she would be great. She looks one just looks just like a bishop. Yes and to she's a great actress. Yeah, and I think she would do it like have so much fun. I think she would do. Well alongside Jeremy Renner, you know, I agree. Yeah, it was really cool to see this news drop because I did not see like a lick of negativity. I saw so many people of different ages because she has such a sort of a broad fanbase. Yeah fans of hers that are like, I love her and True Grit. I love seeing her as a very serious actor and then their fans are like ice armed. We'll be in choose dope and then she's got like the singing faintly. Oh, yeah young fans and young kids, but I feel like across the board. Everyone was like, alright, that's a great choice. He's such a like. I mean like she isn't she said to West Coast Adventure, you know saying yeah, that's yeah. I mean, it's pretty much all we can say about that. Like no like I also hope that it does go through. Yeah. I think it's really great casting and the really exciting thing is that the way things are panning out. Maybe we could get a Young Avengers movie and these actors that are playing these characters. Yeah, and some of the ones maybe we've already He met could still like could join that and be up on the big screen. So oh, I mean, oh, I would love that man. Yeah, man, who will be your startup starting lineup for a Young Avengers. Will you got to have Kate Bishop? Yep, I would love now that we have the Scrolls a whole chling. Yeah. Let me say, you know, and I would love depending on how One Division pans out depending on how the mole was a Madness. Dr. Strange Wanda and Visions Sons. Yeah speed and wicked like those would be great and we can was a huge part of Young Avengers man like that. Run, yes, because that 2007 or someone or yes and something - or would be amazing from Cassie Lang like from the Ant-Man movies or from endgame. I should say sooner. She's cast. Let's bring her back and then I'll probably go just to make it that old school like original lineup. I would go Patriot because with Patriot you could do a storyline that actually reveals and you could go back to some of the the the the visual storytelling some of the sets some of the actors of the Captain America the First Avenger. Era and go hey before Steve Rogers, they experimented on black men. They experimented on black soldiers and that's how we got Eli Bradley and then his grandson who is I think his name is also Eli. Maybe it's Isaiah Bradley is the grandfather's Isaiah Bradley's the original black man who gets experiments on but then like lives and becomes a Proto Captain America the First Captain America and do something. I mean, this is something that could be explored in a Disney Plus show. It's something that could be explored in a movie as like a subplot If it's an ensemble movie, like it's something that the MCU could go into and be like look we all love Stanley Tucci. We all loved that first Captain America movie and Howard Stark and everything. Here's what the government did and you know what? I mean? It's like Basin some troops, but it's also like the Marvel version of it and Steve never knew and now characters are learning about it. But then here's this new character Patriot and it could be a part of a Young Avengers like that. That would be cool the sick. I don't think that the MCU is something that should shy away from that look at the type of topics. They tackled in Black Panther briefly, you know, they touched on things like systemic racism and sort of world history and stuff in a way that strengthened the story now, so if it serves the story, you know go from it come in with yellow down the dope if you'll have it read Young Avengers the comments Gregor go back find out first volume. Yeah, it's from the writer of the OC and I was like, alright as a high schooler and then I read it. I was like, this is fantastic, California. Well, it's actually pretty good. It's yeah, but actually I think we casting is I think it's a great choice. If it does go through she's a fantastic actor and everything that from True Grit everything that she's made in the last like nine ten years. You've been really really great them and Bumblebee is just an awesome movie first and second of all, I was very happy with that movie. Yeah, and the fact that this character could spin off into or I guess you would technically take over the Hawkeyes series eventually and then spin off into the movies is It offer but her and Clint are like Partners first mentor mentee and decorate to like that's a lot for so funny. There's ribbon amick. Yeah keep Bishop man. Yeah, super exciting. Let's talk about this ginormous deal that JJ Abrams just made with Warner Brothers for 250 million doll hairs to develop a brand new style of are you talking about this on collider earlier today? And there was a lot of there were so many deals that JJ and and Bad Robot were sort of going through and so Many things that were on the table including Apple who wanted to acquire them for five hundred million dollars, but the reason that JJ end up not taking that deal was because they wanted exclusivity / JJ Abrams. So everything that he developed whatever he wrote produced directed everything was going to be exclusively for apple and the decision the reason for the decision that they made end up being. Well Apple didn't seem to really have any intention of going theatrical with any of their stuff that they're making now, right and on top of that. He didn't necessarily want to be pigeonholed. To just make things for One streaming service as we know Bad Robot they left to tackle things across all genres all mediums. Yeah, and if they're going to just exclusively produce stuff for one platform, I feel like creatively that's cutting JJ off from creating so many amazing things and on top of that. He's already doing stuff at Paramount with Star Trek and Mission Impossible the may end up doing more. Yeah, he may end up doing more stuff with Star Wars. So I think this is a good move. I think creatively this is a great move for JJ Abrams and and Bad Robot. With a company that will probably encourage them to creatively expand their things to so many different platforms that have that robot you put in here that batter about would develop a produced video games. Yeah only there's a battery by video gave me AB, I would be very interested to see a story driven game that they produce. Yeah, that'd be really really sweet man. Well, it's actually warmer media because like, you know Warner Brothers put it directly in the last video game. Was that bad robot today have anything to do with that? I feel like they did. I never played feel like yeah, it was not good. But it was I remember when I I came out for PS3. Oh, wow. They were like it's set in the continuity of the show. You can watch it. We've got the voice actors from the show. They're voicing you playing an original character running around on the island trying to solve the clues for Charles to solve the mystery. What the what in the what? Oh my anything we can help with anything we can do you have to go back go back we have to go back maybe but I'm like, but that game was bad. Yeah, I think but first and then they also did there was a Star Trek game that also was bad, but I was like they got Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto to remember that it was not good, but it was cool because they showed the Gorn for the first time nice and then you Kelvin universe and the yeah, I think them partner up with Warner Brothers media like their games are Italy shadow of mordor's of like that really they do in the really good stuff. So listen elephant in the room. We got to talk about it. Hmm is that five of ya is by as Bad Robot. Are they going to do DC superhero stuff? I mean JJ has a very close relationship with Ava Duvernay. Like they're very close friends. And now you're seeing now you're starting to see like storm read and all these people that like all these directors have worked with coming into the DC Universe. Yeah true. I think it's a very big possibility that you're going to see jury tackling some sort of DC property. Do I do I think it's going to be Superman? Yeah, probably not but I also think that if Warner Brothers is smart and based on a lot of a lot of filmmakers that are bringing in I'm starting to become very confident in what they're doing with their Universe. I really do hope that they can get someone like Ava Duvernay and JJ Abrams and some of the other filmmakers they have working with them now to sit down and say, okay cool. We have certain movies that are part of a shared Universe. We have some stuff that's going to be maybe like a DC Black Label or some elseworlds label cool. Let's get filmmakers to continue making those movies at the same time. Let's build this out. We make this universe actually really work and I did JJ is someone who did it with Mission Impossible. He did it with Star Wars and Star Trek out. He's someone who can come in and kind of look at the bigger picture and say great there's potential here. Yes, let's get these filmmakers together. And I think that we can really actually takes on like he just he keeps taking on more and more. I like that doesn't like commit to just one thing. He's yeah and I've done this. Let's try this now, you know, I think that's super super food and I'm looking forward to see More cool Bad Robot original stuff me too, because they did they did. That's how Matt Reeves got story at did they do that zombie? Which the first two are so good. Yeah, man, but did he do that Zombie World War II movie? Yes. I forgot what it was called. Like I forgot about the Lord is good. Yeah, that's my Netflix is like will take it. Yeah, and you're like and I hope and I but I think that that to me is the most exciting thing is the fact that like yeah GJ rooms as a filmmaker and Creator he's not going to want to not have the opportunity to create stuff for other platforms. And I think also like for Bad Robot more TV stuff aside from superheroes which like yeah, there's so much to mine from when it comes to the DC sort of Mythology, but Warner Brothers itself. It has such a rich history of Ooh, yeah. Oh, yeah that you know, he could find stuff that he thinks he could reboot and make better or stuff that hasn't been touched in 50 plus years. I could be better could add to yeah, we're stuff new stuff that could become a new part of like a Warner Brothers because I because I have brand loyalty to Warner Brothers. Yeah. I love the Looney Tunes. I love Lord of the Rings films of the Harry Potter. I love so many movies that have come out of that studio over. It's incredible history. Yeah, even if I don't get excited about stuff like a star is born. It's there that's still a huge part of that studio. Um, yeah so stuff like that would be dope man. Yeah, I like man if GTA with Bad Robot where the people would be like, okay here now, here's the new take on Looney Tunes. We're finally doing the new Looney Tunes thing. I'd be like, yes. Hit me up. If you want a good Scooby-Doo Movie y'all I got the idea for it. Let's do Scooby-Doo. Let's do more Hanna-Barbera stuff. I think they are doing good. Do I know but like photos leaked, right? Yeah what it was live action. It was like CG it was like a there's a photo leaks of like the CD. The figures of like Scooby and the Gang that's fine doctors already at there's already dying inside. The one that had like Ed Helms and a bunch of other like celebrities. Yeah stinkweed, that's fine. But if you want the live-action movie and then I'll again just to sum up JJ Abrams for me with the stuff that he abused his projects with our like heart if there's harsh needed Super 8 is just an open heart. I love that Super 8. I love the heart and Star Trek. I love the heart and force awakens. Yeah, even a Mission Impossible 3 is has way more heart than like the first to Mission Impossible. Pause and then it kind of carries through so like yeah, even if we learn in the coming weeks months whatever like they're like, yeah bed robot. They're doing Superman. JJ Abrams is going to write direct to Superman. I'm like, yeah hard for that. It will have heart. I am for that in the JJ Abrams of today is a very different JJ Abrams than when he was developing a lie, man back in the Mission Impossible 3 was the first feature film he directed in 2007 sakes 13 years ago thats a slick pick and then three years later. He did Star Trek which like was pretty damn good very damn good now. Now Ten Years Later like JJ Abrams has positioned himself in a way that makes them one of the most dominating not just as a director but a producer director writer and this whole company and such a dominating part of our industry. Yeah. Yeah. I want to see somebody like that be given the full potential to create anything that they potentially want. Yeah. Yeah, man, I totally agree. All right, JJ keep going man. Keep doing a baby going Mill JJ. We're Close out by watching this trailer for Watchman dope. Yeah, man, I'm exactly gave me the look of her. Hey we can kill time and it's fine. Have you seen I haven't seen this there's been okay. So here's the weird thing about this Watchman series from HBO. They've put out a bunch of teasers and like trailers. Yes. Yeah, but every time I see clips of them, they're like 15 30 seconds long. Yeah, and I've kind of just like waited until there's been a full two and a half minute trailer. Yeah, because I don't want to like see a bunch of little Snippets of stuff. I want to thank I totally agree that I'm not reading Doomsday Clock right now because I'm just waiting for us. A to finish just finish and I don't know I think Issue 11 out of 12. So I just saw that they're going to put out the first six in a collection and I'm kind of like kind of want to wait for the full twist all I'm saying to you they're gonna do it and I know so I'm like mast in the way for that full 12th now because I just put out Issue 11. Yeah somewhere so I can wait. Yeah good. Also Whoever has my original Watchman 12-issue hardcover. I have no idea where that is. So you hear if you have it bring it back if you want our show Bring It Back just gonna get like 800 Hardcovers male to use all right. Well, let's go this route. Here we go people who are masks. I like that. I like her. She's good actor Injustice. They suck a lot of her being a very cool mask. It hides the pain. I wear the mask to protect myself. Yep, right from the paint at look. It was a Calvary involved shooting last night Tulsa, Oklahoma, you're gonna give me the speech now what speech I should calm down take a breath. For were organ. No, there's a guy in my trunk delightful. Whoa, whoa kicked in my door to do that trip to hear ya. Johnny just forgot he's Ozymandias, right? That's why I think so. Yeah. So, it's great. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah nice. It's the only way to show you the truth. These helped start the 7th Cavalry from doing what triple occurs trying to start a war. Black freighter. Yeah. Oh, whoa. It looks really nothing good. I really does guys. It looks really I'm so over 20. That's so great. I just rewind I have to add this to our list of podcast maybe if we get enough support. Yeah. Well, they're excited about it that are probably going to watch week to week. It looks really interesting it look I just re-watched the movie The live-action 2009 Zack Snyder movie and still things I like about But as the years go on I am looking at it again with like a the things that I think people love the most are when it is different and not so, you know focused on recreating the the panels in the moments and everything and this just looks so tantalizing because it is all original. Yeah. It's a sequel It's the what happens after and yeah, and and what I'm excited about is because again, the comic book in the 80s was commenting on what was happening in comics and that kind of story then yeah, I think that the live-action movie and o9 was ahead of its time frankly where it's like, okay, I don't think it to me. It wasn't commenting enough on like what was happening in movies, but this show looks like it's so relevant. Yeah, and it's gonna be going to be commenting on what's happening today and what's happening, you know? Yeah some of the some of the like the political messages were weird in the film movie coming out being sort of like coming out in the first year of the Obama Administration after the two terms of bush and kind of what it was saying and kind of who it was siding with I'm like, Is this feel it just it wasn't as you know, it could have been maybe clearer but this show feels like it has a strong voice with its original content and what it's saying while using the Watchman world to be like here's what we're saying about the world today about television today, whatever whatever so really really excited. Yeah, man, it looks great. Yeah, and I think also the movie sort of had the challenge of because it is written and it came out in 1985. It's dealing with that time period in 2009. Yes. So it's like I feel like that messaging it's hard to make that clear because you're kind of dealing with like two different time periods and trying to make it all work in one thing. Yeah, and as this can sort of like be modern and say what has to say about today and because it is original, it doesn't it's not beholden to anything that came before it is can using the Watchman universe and like use that and yeah break it like topical today and stuff and do we know who's writing it? No, Lindelof is involved. He's in is if he's writing every episode or if it's like it's probably a team of writers. Yes imagine. But yeah, so but I think yet exciting really sad because he has talked about at length and I had been a fan of a lot of his work and some of his stuff hasn't quite hit with me. I haven't seen the leftovers yet people love the leftovers. He's talked about the influence at this book and world has had on him so much so that I'm like, you know, I want less remakes and reboots but really at the end of the day, that's not true. I just want all the same crap that I love the Fact that he gets to finally actually play in this playground is exciting because I'm like, yeah, we've seen the influence in your other work. You finally get a shot. What would you do with it now? What would you do with the thing that you are obsessed with in love and have such passion for let something that I know I feel like you would be you all want some like that like not opportunity to if you were able to write like the Scooby-Doo thing or something like yeah, but well my Scooby-Doo would just be a straight-up origin movie but it would be so good. Hit me up Bad Robot. They're not in charge of its Warner Brothers. They're already they already know what they're doing. Scooby-Doo, they don't do any but but yeah, I'm really curious in re mixing and reactive. Oh, I think that's that to me is the only way I will be excited about something. It's like great. It was kind of the same thing for me. Like I love Halloween David Gordon green came in and said like we're going to deal with the trauma of Laurie Strode and what happens 40 years after cool. That's something new and different. Yeah. It's not like it's great. Oh we're going to go in and we're going to explain thorn in the curse. And now I'm like, I don't I don't want that and the fact that you know, they're going to continue that to me. That's the most important thing. What's a filmmaker going to bring? To something that's established that is different than what we've seen before. I don't want to see the same thing. Yeah on this to me is like we're going to go back to the Watchman Universe. We're not going to try to remake the movie or make the movie into a new TV series. That's like modern. Let's just Advance forward and let's continue into in the world of Watchmen and see where this could have progressed from the comic book / the movie because the movie is basically the comic book, correct? Yeah looks great highly exciting math. Thank you. So For being late. I'm manic you guys for having me Mimi. You're the best the best the best let the people know where they can find. You guys.
