Sam Wall: Alright, what is up, Patreon? We're with you guys first. we there we're not at D twenty three, clearly. I'm gonna try and get this up tonight for you guys, but we got some pretty major stuff from D twenty three.
Zach: We're at we're at D twenty three, in our minds. In spirit.
Sam Wall: In spirit. so we're gonna bring you guys with us to react to a couple things. I've got three trailers from D23, and then on the regular pod, which will be on Spotify and all that stuff, hopefully tomorrow. So little Sunday emergency pod for you guys will be our full breakdowns and and thoughts and like all that stuff. So
Zach: Yes, sir.
Sam Wall: that's the plan for right now. I'm gonna share my screen. All right, the first trailer that we're gonna watch, both me and Zach have already seen multiple times. So we're gonna watch this one first and react to it, even though we've both seen it. Is that cool with you, Zach? Alright, this is Ahsoka
Zach: It's peak. Yes, I'll watch it a million more times.
Sam Wall: season two. if you haven't seen Ahsoka yet, there's not spoilers, so you'll be fine. Yeah.
Zach: Ahsoka's in it.
Sam Wall: Well yeah. Great ships. The music in this trailer is so good.
Zach: Bro, we got a new colored lightsaber right here.
Sam Wall: Should we also talk about Anakin's fit, bro?
Zach: Yeah, it's tough. It's Clone Wars fit. Bro, red Lucas film logo could mean crazy things.
Sam Wall: Throne does look a lot better.
Zach: He does.
Sam Wall: Mm.
Zach: Bro, I love this right here. Bro, the night sisters look insane. B wings, peak ship.
Sam Wall: Hell yeah.
Zach: I'm really excited to see more Balin and Shin.
Sam Wall: Mm. Let's go. Zeb is back.
Zach: Z Zeb Ezra reunion. Bro, Enoch versus Ezra looks crazy. Griev Yang.
Sam Wall: Bro, the gas saber is sick.
Zach: It's General Grievyang. Bro, are you a Jedi or not? Is a crazy, crazy, crazy line.
Sam Wall: It legitimately might be one of the best trailers I've ever seen in my life. I'm not even gonna lie to you.
Zach: No, I'm being dead serious. Well, the first thought I had on this is that it looks way more like a movie trailer and it should have been the movie instead of Mandalorian and Grogu. Like that was like this
Sam Wall: Yeah.
Zach: looks way more worthy of being in the cinema than Mando and Grogu did. It looks it looks huge, bro. Bro, it looks huge though. The scale looks insane.
Sam Wall: No, for sure. And everything looks great. The special effects look great. Also, the more that I've looked the more that I've looked at Thrawn today, I haven't seen Ahsoka season one yet, for those that are wondering. Thrawn looks way better than he did in season one. They removed a lot
Zach: Yeah, he does.
Sam Wall: of the fat from his face. He looks pretty skeletal and like he looks way more alien, I think.
Zach: He doesn't look as he doesn't look as clean as sleek, but in a good way. He also
Sam Wall: Yeah, I agree. Okay.
Zach: like this is like bro, this looks like it's giving Clone Wars fans what they want, Rebels fans what they want, EU fans what they want, extended like like the the original trilogy fans, you're getting a a be a continuation basically of what what happened, like a better continuation than the sequels sequels.
Sam Wall: Also loved Ezra's look with the beard, but I'm glad that we're back to like clean shave. Yeah, it's tough. No, it's tough.
Zach: Young Ezra, young looking bro, Emmanuel's Faldi is so funny, bro. I love that guy.
Sam Wall: Okay, have yeah, he's he's the boy. We need to get him on the pod, bro. He would totally do it. He would totally do it. Okay. I know
Zach: Dead ass, bro. I know. Yeah, he does seem like the type to do it. Good.
Sam Wall: you just listened to the Vision Quest trailer. Have you seen it yet? Okay.
Zach: I listened to thirty seconds of it. I've not seen it yet. 'Cause I just couldn't turn it off. Yeah, good.
Sam Wall: Okay, let's go. Paul Betney the goat. Another Star Wars legend.
Zach: W and V Wanda and Vision. I what that means? No, Wanda and Vis yeah, Wanda and Vision. I don't know much about vision, by the way.
Sam Wall: This trailer has such a similar vibe to WandaVision.
Zach: I did watch Wandavision, so I do know a little bit.
Sam Wall: Great show.
Zach: yeah. that's interesting.
Sam Wall: Crazy concept.
Zach: Ultron's back?
Sam Wall: As James Spader.
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: So tough.
Zach: Bro, Marvel really likes these mind benders.
Sam Wall: Tough.
Zach: Looks cool. Whoa. No, that looks cool.
Sam Wall: Sorry, I know we were both pretty silent through. Here's my thing. I've No,
Zach: Yeah. I was trying to really figure out what was going on, that's why.
Sam Wall: we're we're back to peak trailers, I think, because I have no idea what's going on in either one of these trailers. But this one, watching
Zach: I have an idea, like that's true, yeah. You're right.
Sam Wall: the trailer for this has me thinking like this is either going to be one of the best shows or Marvel projects of all time, or it's going to be absolute slot.
Zach: Well, to me, like I don't know if this is just a me thing, but I feel like Marvel has like this like infatuation with doing these like mind bender type shows. Like the first like five or six I don't remember how many episodes WandaVision is, but like you have no idea what the f Yeah, but you don't know what the fuck's
Sam Wall: Dude, WandaVision was an experience, a cultural phenomenon.
Zach: you really don't know what the fuck is going on for the first couple episodes, like at all. And
Sam Wall: No, for sure.
Zach: like Loki's the same kind of way. Like Loki's takes a minute.
Sam Wall: And Moon Knight.
Zach: Yeah, they're all like weird. They're all like fucking
Sam Wall: Yeah.
Zach: out there. They use like the shows to be out there.
Sam Wall: Well and then they stopped doing it for a while and I'm glad they're kinda coming back around to it a little bit. Hopefully they stick the landing.
Zach: No, yeah, I think it's a I think it's a cool concept. I'm not like over the moon excited, but I I will watch it for sure.
Sam Wall: No yeah, it's it it looks pretty dope.
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: and one of my biggest criticisms of Age of Ultron is that it's the only time we ever got Ultron. Like I wish we'd kind of built up to it or like whatever or we got 'cause James Spader is so good as Ultron and I'm glad that he's
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: back.
Zach: No any Ultron content I'm here for. I fuck with Ultron for sure.
Sam Wall: All right, last but not least, the one we've all been waiting for.
Zach: Do you have the Starfighter
Sam Wall: Bro.
Zach: trailer or no?
Sam Wall: I can pull it up.
Zach: All right, we should do that real quick too.
Sam Wall: Yeah, for sure. Bro, I've even had to avoid
Zach: You're saying the one we all been you said you're saying the one we'd all been waiting for, but let me tell you, I waited years for the Ahsoka season two trailers, just so you know. All right, let's do it. Doomsday.
Sam Wall: Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Avengers doomsday. I've even I've even had to avoid edits like the Plague today. They're already all over the internet. So
Zach: Yeah, I've saw I saw a few clips that were like longer versions of like stuff we've already seen, but I haven't seen the whole thing, so
Sam Wall: Yeah. Okay, here we go. Aura already.
Zach: That is Aura. This seems like it's just gonna be doom fucking going crazy.
Sam Wall: Okay, so Fantastic Four already know this doom.
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: man, all of them together so crazy.
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: so his family is dead. I know that from the comics, but
Zach: Is that Sue Storm talking?
Sam Wall: yeah.
Zach: That's tough.
Sam Wall: Aura dude.
Zach: I think that was Wait, hold on.
Sam Wall: He destroyed another universe.
Zach: We gotta go back after that.
Sam Wall: Yo. Yo dude. Yo.
Zach: That's crazy.
Sam Wall: my gosh.
Zach: this is the line. This is the line. This was rumored, but it's real. Yo Yo sentinels That's crazy
Sam Wall: Let's go dude!
Zach: Bro he's got a Sentinel army
Sam Wall: my gosh, bro. You're kidding me. You're kidding me.
Zach: That was crazy. That looks that looks good. Wait, can you
Sam Wall: Bro.
Zach: wait real quick, can you back it up to the city? Like when they first
Sam Wall: Yeah.
Zach: show the city? There, there, there, there, there. Bro, that's New York. Is that not New York?
Sam Wall: Yeah, that's New York in another world. No, it seems like he's destroying timelines that he says are stolen.
Zach: Okay, so I've seen a lot of I haven't watched I haven't
Sam Wall: Wait, let's get some of this let's get some of this dialogue one more time.
Zach: Okay
Sam Wall: Hold on.
Zach: Yeah, he's definitely doing that incursion shit.
Sam Wall: Or
Zach: Yeah, I love that shot. Get shit on. That's a crazy thing to put in the trailer to be honest. Yeah, no, that shit crazy.
Sam Wall: Yeah, bro. They should have released this trailer first. What are we doing? This is way better than the first trailer.
Zach: Yeah, I agree. I didn't need to see ever I I think they wanted to show the first trailer first because everybody was in it and like like kind
Sam Wall: Yeah.
Zach: of like doing shit. This one it's hard to see everybody.
Sam Wall: That's like that's like infinity war level level trailer, bro.
Zach: Well, I think what this one is, is it highlights Doom being his it's his movie and I think that's what it is.
Sam Wall: Yeah, bro.
Zach: I think that's what they're focusing on for sure, so
Sam Wall: All right, y'all. we're hopping over to the emergency pod. Find us
Zach: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Pull up the starfighter real quick if you can.
Sam Wall: right, right, right, right. Hold on, we got one more.
Zach: I mean shit, we can't leave it out. If we could
Sam Wall: Do do doo doo doo.
Zach: find it, you should be able to find it.
Sam Wall: Be easy.
Zach: I have it on Instagram, I could send it to you if you want. Did you see it or no?
Sam Wall: That's not it. I actually think that I did they announced a Bluey movie.
Zach: we gotta react to that. I'm just kidding. Yo, we got what was it? I saw bro, Hat Guy's definitely having a field day. I saw Hat guy I or I saw Coco 2, Incredibles three, and Zootopia three. Bro's gonna fucking
Sam Wall: sure.
Zach: lose his shit. T OT did an emergency pod for Ahsoka as well, so the vibes are high.
Sam Wall: Fire.
Zach: All the pods are firing right now. All the nerd media pods. I could
Sam Wall: All right, everybody.
Zach: did you find it?
Sam Wall: Think so.
Zach: I could send it to you if you have Instagram on your computer.
Sam Wall: I don't have Instagram on my computer. I know the one that I'm
Zach: I
Sam Wall: looking for. I did see it earlier. I just need to pull up. I think I saw it on X though. Let me see if I can find an X link.
Zach: One thing I'll say while you're saying that, or while you're finding it about Doomsday is I think they're trying not to show too much, but like it does like it looks a little unfinished still. And like I'm not normally one to say that. Like it does look like just like CGI overload in some in some like parts, to be honest.
Sam Wall: Yeah. Okay, we're gonna
Zach: You agree with that?
Sam Wall: watch it on on Reddit. It's gonna be a little blurry 'cause it's a leak.
Zach: fuck yeah, I love Reddit.
Sam Wall: Hold on. Let me
Zach: No, it's fine.
Sam Wall: Ryan Gasling Peak. What a handsome man. That's a great chip.
Zach: Fastest star fighter ever built.
Sam Wall: Few no ball.
Zach: No, he just said it, bro.
Sam Wall: no. I was making a joke.
Zach: Fuck dude, wait, wait, wait. That we gotta go back to that jacket when we're done. Alright, fuck it. Bro, pause on that jacket when it comes up. I don't know if you saw it.
Sam Wall: Dude, you sent me a picture of it.
Zach: Yeah, it's fucking insane. It's actually insane. yeah.
Sam Wall: Wait. Wait.
Zach: It's more up for a few seconds. Bro, look at that
Sam Wall: There we go.
Zach: shit. Upside down Rebel logo with two guns and like a skull and crossbones is so sick, bro. Like it's giving
Sam Wall: Maybe they'll sell it. That would be tough.
Zach: Bro, they probably will. It's probably gonna be a big thing, to be honest. Bro, the minifig with that jacket on, they already confirmed three Starfighter sets.
Sam Wall: Yeah. Continue.
Zach: That's gonna be cra yeah, go. A ship is tough.
Sam Wall: It looks so sick. The design is great.
Zach: This looks crazy. I don't even know what the fuck's going on here, but it looks cool.
Sam Wall: Star Wars in their world design, bro.
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: Love a good jump across a chasm scene in Star Wars.
Zach: Yeah, bro, I'm not gonna lie. I think that Ryan Gosling is what Star Wars needs right now. Like, I didn't really think
Sam Wall: Yeah, I agree.
Zach: that at first, but like I honestly think that like him this being his movie is huge. I think it looks cool. I mean, obviously you don't get much from that, but it it's cool that we saw a little bit of it at least.
Sam Wall: Yeah. All right. We're moving over now. We'll talk about it more on the actual emergency pod. Okay.
Zach: Let's go.
Sam Wall: All right. Welcome back to the topic. We are talking D twenty three news. Yeah, we're talking everything. Yeah, I'm just gonna cut it. We're already in it. We're in it right now. All right, emergency pod. Yeah. Yeah.
Zach: Wait, wait, wait, are you just gonna like cut it and then like all right, all right, bet all right. All right, fuck it. All right. Wait, just start it over, just Okay. right. Emergency pod, emergency pod, emergency pod.
Sam Wall: Welcome back to the topic. we are here with D23 news. We just reacted to some trailers over on the Patreon. If you want to see our reactions to a bunch of the trailers from D23, go over to the Patreon. The link will be in the description. We just watched the Starfighter trailer that has been leaked online. Let's talk about that first. Here's the first thing I would like to say. It's the first Star Wars project we've gotten in a while where the camera work looks kind of saucy.
Zach: It's kind of fucking sick.
Sam Wall: Yeah, like there like there's actual blocking. People are walking with intention to places and having conversations with intention. Like
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: it like I was worried about Sean Levy, but it it looks good.
Zach: No, looks good. It looks good. I I think we can't really say much more than it looks cool right now, 'cause like we
Sam Wall: Yeah.
Zach: don't really know much. But like before this we had nothing. Like we had a picture of Ryan Gosling and a kid, and that was it. That was the whole thing. So now we know the
Sam Wall: And you know what?
Zach: ship he has and the jacket he's wearing. Yeah. Okay.
Sam Wall: You know what makes me feel that they understand what they're making is actually
Zach: Hm.
Sam Wall: the retro Star Wars logo at the end of the trailer.
Zach: I do I do agree with that. That did catch my eye. That was an eye catching thing
Sam Wall: It
Zach: for sure.
Sam Wall: it definitely very feels very intentional of like we know what we're making. We want this to be like old Star Wars.
Zach: Yeah, and like the flipped rebel logo in the Skull and Crossbones on Ryan Gosling's jacket is like kinda outlaw way after the rebels are like, you know, gone, like type vibes. Like that's sick. The Starfighter's cool.
Sam Wall: Also encouraged to see that the kid is not like 'cause in the original promo picture for the movie, the kid looks mad young. Yeah.
Zach: It looked like he was really little. Yeah.
Sam Wall: But he looks like he could legitimately be very good, which is good.
Zach: No, yeah, he looks he looks a little older than I thought for sure. Yeah.
Sam Wall: Yeah, no for sure. And Ryan Gosling's aura farming as always. Which is so tough.
Zach: he's going crazy. No, like I just said, I think Star Wars needs this. I think it I think it is a lot more promising looking than Mandalorian Grogu. Like Mandalorian Grogu offers nothing new. Like you can go watch the first three seasons, you watch the movie, you're not getting anything new.
Sam Wall: Yeah. I mean I mean we'll we'll use this
Zach: Except Embo Aura farming, that's it.
Sam Wall: let let's use this as a direct segue into Ahsoka because like Mandalorian Grogu is kind of just like come watch Star Wars. It'll be fun. Like
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: just come and watch it and you'll have a good time and you'll
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: leave and it won't be anything crazy. Both Ahsoka and Starfighter seem like they have mad intention behind them of
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: like reviving what we've lost, which
Zach: I don't think you understand how actually excited I am for Ahsoka season two. Like I am juiced.
Sam Wall: Dude, I understand. You're the number one glazer of that show.
Zach: And and I'm happy about it right now 'cause everyone seems to be jumping on the bandwagon after this fucking trailer and I've been glazing season one for a long time.
Sam Wall: I will say, I've seen one episode of Ahsoka. I've seen one episode. Yep. I've seen one episode. We'll talk later. We'll talk later.
Zach: You watched it? What happens in the first episode again? I don't really remember. All right, all right.
Sam Wall: yeah, both Ahsoka and Starfighter, obviously we haven't seen a ton of both of them, but everybody that has talked about both of them seems very, very passionate about what they're doing. And what this means to me is that It feels to me that there is so much intention behind reviving everything that we've lost through all of these bad projects. Like,
Zach: Hundred percent.
Sam Wall: I think there's so much intention behind using a retro Star Wars logo, using like a Rebel logo, like bringing back all the Rebels characters and
Zach: Dude, it's not even bringing back all the rebels characters. It feels like they're trying to bring they're trying to make the most Star Wars project they can make with Ahsoka. Like they are bringing in every element that they possibly can. Like I said, from the extended universe stuff, like we're bringing a bunch of Clone Wars shit back. We're bringing Rebels into it. It's a lot of cool shit. Like it is really cool. And and they're taking the approach, like Thrawn's like, I'm declaring all out war on the rebels. Like he still thinks the rebels are fully. in gear and like he's treating it like the empire is not dead, which is like a cool fucking vibe.
Sam Wall: Well, and also I think what's so exciting about it as well is that whether people like the prequels or not, the peak of Star Wars popularity was in the space and time in which we were getting Clone Wars, we were getting rebels, we were getting the prequels, like we were existing in this time where we had the Legos, we had the action figures, we had the ships that you can buy, we had like all of these shows to watch. Kids were into it, adults were into it, adults were liked watching Clone Wars weekly with their kids. And we are bringing all of that stuff back in order to
Zach: Yeah, that was a good time. Yeah.
Sam Wall: like bring things back to the way that they were.
Zach: Yeah, bro. A hundred percent. And like f I like also like Feloni said multiple times, he's like, We have put a lot of work into Ahsoka season two. And like everyone's kinda like, All right, bro, like where's Ahsoka season two? I think it's gonna be worth the wait. I think it looks like I said, the first thing I said about the trailer is it looks like a movie trailer, bro. It does not look like a show trailer. It is huge. It is an epic scope type trailer. Like it looks fucking massive. and
Sam Wall: Yeah. And
Zach: then the Yeah.
Sam Wall: here's here's the last thing that I'll say on the reviving thing. Like
Zach: Mm-hmm.
Sam Wall: I think Starfighter is bringing back our huge box office movies. Cause
Zach: Mm-hmm.
Sam Wall: there are three big things that we had in Star Wars at its peak. We had the big box office movies, we had Rebels, and we had Clone Wars. We are bringing
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: back the box office movies through Starfighter, we are bringing back Clone Wars through Maul. And we are bringing back like everything like rebels through Ahsoka, which like we're bringing back all of the pillars.
Zach: Yeah. Bro, Ahsoka season two is essentially Rebels live action at this point. But I'm like here for it. Like it's worth it. Yeah.
Sam Wall: Yeah, bro, we're bringing back all of the pillars. It's awesome.
Zach: The entire Rebels crew is gonna be in this season, so that's fucking sick. Also, like, dude, Ahsoka's does so many cool things, right? Like, I know you haven't watched it, so I'm not gonna give anything away, but like Balin and Shin are two extremely awesome, interesting live action characters. Like so fucking awesome, and I cannot wait to see more of them in this show. Like it is gonna be so cool. The other thing I'll say is I jumped on Instagram saying how jealous I was of Marvel for having so many huge announcements and how it looks like they're so back and that Star Wars is falling off. But honestly, I I I take I retract my statement completely because it feels like less is more right now. And I feel like if they nail Ahsoka season two, they nail Starfighter and they nail Maul S Shadow Lord season two. That is giving us, like you said, all three pillars, a great animated series, a great movie, and a great live action series. And I honestly think that if they just show they can perform with quality, everyone will be back on board.
Sam Wall: Yeah, I think the franchise will will come back to life. Absolutely.
Zach: Yeah, I kind of came to that revelation earlier. I was like, bro, I think they got so I think they know what they're doing. I trust more than I thought.
Sam Wall: Yeah. Yeah. No, absolutely. I agree with you one hundred percent.
Zach: How many times or how many times you think Feloni's gonna put himself in Ahsoka?
Sam Wall: Bro, a lot. Okay. I yeah, before we jump we did we will talk Doomsday. We will talk Doomsday. I promise. first
Zach: Yeah. Yeah.
Sam Wall: we should talk about some of these MCU announcements. Cause I think it's safe to say the MCU's back. I
Zach: Grow.
Sam Wall: wouldn't say superheroes are back. I wouldn't say superhero fatigue doesn't exist right now. I think we're seeing that so much with the DCU. But
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: I think MCU's back, bro. Like genuinely.
Zach: Well, I think it's just a matter of doing it w well. Then everyone will be back, like I said, like, you know.
Sam Wall: Yeah, would you would you like to talk about your favorite X Men casting?
Zach: What do mean? Rogue. It's rogue.
Sam Wall: No, okay. So let's talk about a couple of the ones that we got. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We got we got Kate Connor as Cyclops. We got which was a huge reaction, which was pretty crazy. Samara
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: Weaving as Bro, I almost said Storm. She's definitely not Storm. Nah, she's somebody. Let's
Zach: I don't have the list up by the way. Yeah, no. Do you have the list up? Because there's quite a few of them.
Sam Wall: see. Hold on. Hold on.
Zach: Yeah, there's more there's more than like I could pull it up if you want.
Sam Wall: Okay, I got it. All right, here's our D twenty three cast. Sadie Sync, obviously, the best of them.
Zach: As Gene Gray.
Sam Wall: As Gene Gray. We've got Kit Connor as our Cyclops. We got Christopher Abbott as our new Professor X, Indy Naiveretti as Rogue, which is a surprise to everybody. Maya Boyd,
Zach: Yeah, that's crazy.
Sam Wall: which got a very small reaction as as Sue Storm. So interested to see where that goes. And then we also got Samara Weaving, and it's not saying who she is. Who she is, bro.
Zach: What well you're missing a big one.
Sam Wall: as Emma Frost. And then the final one, which is Adam Driver as Mr. Sinister.
Zach: There it is. Yeah.
Sam Wall: which I'm incredibly hype about. We got we talked on Nerd News in
Zach: Bro s they stole they stole Kylo Ren, bro.
Sam Wall: Yeah, in in the last episode we did nerd news and we talked about a potential casting that we had already for Mr. Sinister. I didn't really know who the guy was, but it seemed cool. Adam Driver, so much tougher. So much tougher, bro. Like
Zach: Yeah, bro. They definitely go for star power, I'll say that. I mean, if I'm
Sam Wall: No, for sure.
Zach: if I'm not a movie guy and I'm recognizing almost every single name they're casting, it's definitely pretty big.
Sam Wall: And Adam Driver's just he he just has so much aura. I can't even
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: explain it. Like every time that he's on screen, I'm just like, yo, it's Adam Driver. No, for sure.
Zach: No, that one that one makes sense. That one's cool for sure. Yeah.
Sam Wall: trying to think if there were any other Marvel announcements other than Doomsday.
Zach: No, I don't think there was. I think it was X Men comes
Sam Wall: There were some
Zach: out in I think it's May fifth, twenty twenty eight. That was big too. Well bro, X
Sam Wall: Yeah, which is exciting. So it it should be
Zach: Men, Black Panther three, and Ghost Rider all twenty twenty eight confirmed. Big year. Big year.
Sam Wall: Yeah. Yeah. Insane. Yeah, for sure. We're gonna have a huge year in twenty twenty eight.
Zach: And the Batman too.
Sam Wall: Yeah, bro. They keep pushing that one back. We might get that one in twenty thirty, not gonna lie. But this wasn't D
Zach: Yeah. Bro, what are they try all right, really r for
Sam Wall: twenty three, but we did get a leaked trailer for Beyond the Spider Verse, which looks in
Zach: shit, yeah, that did happen. I did watch it too.
Sam Wall: cr it looks incredible.
Zach: Yeah, I had no I had no doubts though, to be honest.
Sam Wall: No, me either, but I love the route that they took with the trailer of just like picking up the ending. And like
Zach: Yeah, no, I I'm very happy they did that too, because I think that everyone, including myself's like big thing is of like why into the spider verse is so much better than a cross is because it's i it feels incomplete. And I'm not faulting that on the movie per se, because I know it's going to be completed, but when you're left on that big of a cliffhanger for that long, it does it doesn't sit as well with you as into. That was very tied up. Really? I thought
Sam Wall: Yeah, I mean I think I like a cross more, but I think
Zach: you and you had into way higher on your list.
Sam Wall: Maybe. Maybe. They flip flop for me. They're they're they're very close for me though. They're very close for me.
Zach: You had into at one, bro. I'm telling you, I know. You had into and the reason I know this is because we both had into and brand new day as one too. Alright.
Sam Wall: They are very close for me. And something that I'm incredibly impressed with is like it feels like we never left.
Zach: Yeah, no, I don't think so at all. I think it hits even
Sam Wall: No. Like
Zach: harder that I just rewatched them, so it felt like even more refreshing.
Sam Wall: Well, like it's been years and the tone doesn't feel any different. The art feels like on par, like, you know, it's just it's awesome. The vibe is still good. There's
Zach: No, yeah, it looks awesome. Yeah, no, it was cool.
Sam Wall: there are some hilarious jokes in that first sixty seconds of that clip that are awesome.
Zach: Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
Sam Wall: yeah, it's gonna go crazy. I'm really excited about that. Okay, doomsday.
Zach: Yeah. Bro, real quick before we f before we move on, like are they actually trying to dra like like cast the best fucking looking X-Men squad they possibly can? Like it's actually insane. Bro, like all the memes are s all all the memes
Sam Wall: for sure. for sure. It's gonna bring people to the theater, bruh. That's all I gotta say.
Zach: are so bro, it's gonna bring me to the X Mansion. That's all I'm gonna say. Yeah. Bro.
Sam Wall: We will be there for different reasons.
Zach: Bro, it's so the memes are so funny, bro. The memes are so funny.
Sam Wall: Yeah. No. It's gonna be a heyday for the next like week and a half, two weeks.
Zach: Yeah, bro.
Sam Wall: Doomsday trailer, insane. Like, I
Zach: Yeah, it's really good.
Sam Wall: don't know if if if I've been more hyped for the movie than I am right now. Genuinely.
Zach: Yeah, wait, I wanted to say this too. When we were talking about New York, like you could clearly see New York in the trailer. And like do you said Dooms like going down the Yeah, I know. But like
Sam Wall: No, that was Central Park too. Like for sure.
Zach: but I've s I keep seeing people bringing up the Toby theory and it seems to be like more and more like it could happen.
Sam Wall: I don't think that it will. No.
Zach: No? All right.
Sam Wall: another announcement. Wolverine is officially in Doomsday. Hugh Jackman. Which
Zach: I did see that as well. Yeah.
Sam Wall: is tough. I I don't think Toby Maguire will be in it. I would be incredibly surprised if he wasn't in Secret Wars though. Incredibly surprised. But
Zach: Yeah. Yeah.
Sam Wall: I feel like if they put Toby Maguire in Doomsday, there will be too much going on. Genuinely.
Zach: Well, dude, I yeah,
Sam Wall: Because
Zach: I think that's my concern at the moment still a little bit. Like I think it'll be fine, but I and also I loved Andrew from the Escape Pod's take and like it kind of re-warped my opinion on this movie, whereas like everyone was looking
Sam Wall: It's
Zach: for this build-up for like Thanos level villain. Everyone comes together to for this big final battle, Infinity War Endgame style. But he was like, What if we just view it as the first Avengers and this is like the stomping grounds for everything that's to come with Marvel and all these new characters are interacting for the first time and then they're gonna take that and run with it with the new X Men movie and all that other shit.
Sam Wall: I I like that take too and hearing Andrew say that like a year ago definitely flipped my perspective a little bit too. I think the more that I see how many people they've brought back from previous eras of Marvel though has has soiled that a little bit for me of just like
Zach: I still I still don't like Steve Rogers in the trailer. It does not fire me up.
Sam Wall: Yeah, no, it doesn't fit, I don't think. But I will
Zach: It doesn't fire me up.
Sam Wall: say, did you see his interview where he was like the Russos like to make him suffer?
Zach: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I did see that. I did see that, yeah.
Sam Wall: I think I think his I think his kid and Peggy might die, Loki.
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: I don't know if Marvel would kill a baby. That seems intense. But
Zach: I just know that I'm way more fucking hyped for Shang Chi than Steve Rogers.
Sam Wall: Yeah, bro. Seeing Shaang Chi Shaong Chi's in that trailer for literally one second. Like literally one second.
Zach: Yeah. That's why I like the first trailer Loki better because of the Gambit Chung Chi fight. That's it.
Sam Wall: Yeah, yeah. I mean Shang-Chi's gonna mog that whole
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: movie. I love how powerful Doom is. I love the Sentinels. The Sentinels rising up out of the ground at the end. Insane. And
Zach: Yeah, that was s really cool. That was really cool. Doom popping out of that building like flying like head first is crazy too.
Sam Wall: Yeah, RDJ's voice sounds great. The costumes,
Zach: Yeah, it was really good.
Sam Wall: I would say, look great. the shots
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: continue to look better. They still don't look amazing yet.
Zach: I agree, bro. I'm not I'm absolutely not blown away by the way it looks. I'm really not. I'm just I
Sam Wall: Yeah. Yeah.
Zach: it looks like I understand that it's like a dark vibe too. So like I'm keep taking that into consideration. But like, dude, it just doesn't it doesn't look amazing. It just doesn't. It just doesn't.
Sam Wall: Yeah, and I I do think part of the hard part for me too is we've just gotten so many amazing looking movies this year. Project Kell Mary, The Odyssey,
Zach: Yeah. Yeah.
Sam Wall: Spider-Man Brand New Day. And so seeing this after watching all of those, it looks pretty bad. Yeah, dude. Dune part
Zach: Bro, the Dune part three trailer is one of the best looking trailers I've ever seen.
Sam Wall: three trailer. Like we've got four of these incredible cinematography, like filmed like films.
Zach: Yeah. And even though Mando and Grogu wasn't amazing, like, dude, it was still very well done. And they had a lot of practical sets and the filming was really, really good. Like, just it's not an excuse anymore to make things not look great.
Sam Wall: Yeah, and and to be fair, most of this trailer takes place in decimated New York. And so
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: it's not like you can film that practically. But you could have at least you could you could film New York you could you could film New York a little bit
Zach: Bro, I'll go blow New York up. I'm just kidding.
Sam Wall: and like fill it in with CGI, but I feel like no matter what it's gonna look like a volume a little bit. but dude, the also the longer that we sit on the
Zach: Yeah. Yeah. And look, at the end of the day it's coming from
Sam Wall: volume, the less that I like it.
Zach: Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. A hundred percent. Yeah.
Sam Wall: Ca can we stop using the volume, bro? It's dumb.
Zach: I know. It I agree. And like I think that's like dude, we we reiterate this all the time. I don't care that it's Marvel. There's a way to do it where it looks good. I think Thor Ragnarok was one of the best examples of that. Looks fucking awesome. Guardians of the Galaxy looks fucking awesome. And then a better example of that is The Winter Soldier. Like that movie, obviously it's not very fantastical, but like it's Very limited in its, you know, in CGI usage and all that shit. Like it's a very real looking movie. It's like we said, it's more of a spy movie. But like when they get the Avengers movies going, they definitely have a tendency to like wanna go toward like CGI slop looking shit.
Sam Wall: Yeah. Well also I think another problem with it too is throughout this entire trailer we're either in the X Mansion, which is this really enclosed space where
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: like it's almost claustrophobic, and then we're in this mad open, decimated area. And both of those are set up to look kinda dumb. yeah.
Zach: Yeah, we haven't seen anything else either, so yeah. But dude, I'm not gonna lie, even the even this opening scene where Doom is sitting on his throne, it looks like he's sitting in a green screen room. A little bit. No, he it's sick.
Sam Wall: Yeah. He's aura farming in the green screen room though.
Zach: It's fucking sick. And like green screens are green and he's green too. So like it works, but like shit. Yeah. I don't know. It's a it's
Sam Wall: Facts. Facts. Yeah.
Zach: nitpicky and I and look, I'm I'm I'm just saying this right now. I'm probably gonna eat my words and it's probably gonna look good in the theaters. I think I'm you know, that's very we're not getting very much of it, but like, dude, even the Starfighter trailer right away, like it looks fucking awesome. Like it looks w very well shot. So like well like we were saying, so it's just I think it's just everything else looking
Sam Wall: Even think my problem either.
Zach: so good.
Sam Wall: I don't even think my problem necessarily either with some of the shots is that it looks too green screen. I think some
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: shots almost look too perfect, so much so that it's like uncanny. Like
Zach: Yeah, that's fair.
Sam Wall: like Doom has this weird feeling of like, even though I know Downey is like in a costume, like it looks uncanny. Like
Zach: Yeah, no, I agree. I agree. I mean the shots of Doom in general are cool, but like, yeah, I get what you're saying.
Sam Wall: If it had just been the scene of Thor and Doom, that would have got me just as hype. Just as that
Zach: Yeah, I agree. I don't
Sam Wall: scene is insane. Why did they cut
Zach: Yeah, no, it's really good. It's really good.
Sam Wall: the dialogue out in the first trailer? Like
Zach: Yeah, the dialogue would have got me way more excited in the first trailer. That w that when we
Sam Wall: Yeah.
Zach: heard we heard about that line through a tweet. And we were more hyped about that we
Sam Wall: And we were fired up, bro.
Zach: were more hyped about that tweet than the trailer. And then hearing it in the trailer was so so much better.
Sam Wall: Yeah, the delivery is insane. I'm so hyped for this movie. I mean
Zach: Yeah. I'm so hyped for you to watch Ahsoka so we could talk about the implications of what's in that trailer.
Sam Wall: I how many episodes is Ahsoka? Ten episodes?
Zach: No, it's eight episodes, I think.
Sam Wall: Well then how about I try and watch it this week and we'll talk about it with with our guest for next week.
Zach: Houston. shit. We could blur we could bleep that. It's all right. No yeah, a hundred percent. Dude it's dude, there's so much cool shit in that trailer. I'm so hyped.
Sam Wall: so that's most of our talk for you guys. This is most of 'cause we don't have that much time anyways. This is our emergency pod. vision quest. Looks crazy,
Zach: Vision quest, you wanna touch on that real quick? vision quests. Yeah.
Sam Wall: could be super dumb.
Zach: Could be dumb, could be cool. I think it's gonna be I you
Sam Wall: Love seeing James Spader back though.
Zach: know what I think it's gonna be? I think it's gonna be one of those situations where if you really liked WandaVision, you're probably gonna like Vision Quest. If you didn't love WandaVision, you're probably not gonna like Vision Quest.
Sam Wall: I think I have the worry that I have with a lot of these Marvel shows of it's gonna be really awesome the first few episodes when it's really weird and none of us know what's going on, and then when they try
Zach: Mm-hmm.
Sam Wall: to explain it it's gonna be really dumb and I'm really gonna hate it.
Zach: I got a I got a good one. I got a good one. Who did D who who got you more excited during D twenty three? Star Wars or Marvel?
Sam Wall: Star Wars. Star Wars. Easily. Star
Zach: Let's go. A hundred percent.
Sam Wall: Wars had more cool stuff to talk about. Like, other
Zach: I agree.
Sam Wall: than like X-Men and Doomsday, which are big things and are cool. Like, everything
Zach: Yeah. I think
Sam Wall: that we got from Star Wars is tangible. Like, we already had
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: a trailer for Doomsday, and we already knew a lot of these X-Men castings. Like, what we got from Star Wars is
Zach: Yeah, Vision Quest is also like it's like another show, another Marvel show. It's like doesn't look like it's gonna break the worth. Yeah.
Sam Wall: Yeah, and we've known it's coming for like forever. It's cool to see Ultron back, but like that doesn't give me f
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: like fi like I love seeing Hayden Christensen is is still gonna be a big part of season two. Like we low key 'cause
Zach: That's that's exciting.
Sam Wall: I mean, I've been a part of discourse of Ahsoka for like a long time since season one came out. And like
Zach: Yeah. Yeah.
Sam Wall: Hayden Christensen came back, but like the question's always up in the air of like how long will he keep doing this?
Zach: It looks like he's gonna go bigger in this season. Like he's a big part of it.
Sam Wall: Yeah, 'cause the like for some reason, most of the fandom for Star Wars hates that guy. Like,
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: I'm really impressed that he's thickened it out and I love him for it.
Zach: No, I honestly think that he's having like a victory lap right now. I think he was hated for
Sam Wall: No, for sure.
Zach: a really long time and now everyone's really excited that he's back. Because
Sam Wall: Have you heard the story of like at the Revenge of the Sith premiere, he came out and everybody booed him? Yeah.
Zach: I have. Fucking disgraceful, bro. It's the best movie ever made.
Sam Wall: Ha.
Zach: Bro, but also the more you think about the world between worlds, as much as you could say you wish it didn't happen or the concept didn't exist or whatever, it is cool now. Now it's cool in Ahsoka, in my opinion. I like it now. I didn't love
Sam Wall: Yeah.
Zach: it in Rebels, but I like it now. Bro, like Obi-Wan could pop up. I feel like Blue could possibly pop up. Like, I've been thinking about this shit. Like, it it it's not out of the question. It's not out the question. That could be pretty
Sam Wall: Yeah. Yeah, for sure.
Zach: crazy. Bro, I saw someone comment on my trailer post today. They were like, bro, I have this inkling that calcestis is gonna be an Ahsoka. I was like, I don't even know how that would really make sense, but I had to think about it. I was like, I mean, I guess it's
Sam Wall: Dude, what if what if we got what if we got Sam Whitworth's star killer? I mean he's not canon anymore, but that would be insane.
Zach: Yeah, that would be Yeah, dude.
Sam Wall: That would be insane.
Zach: I think we are getting a lot of cool shit though. Like, also, like well, I guess I can't talk too much about it, but you saw Hu Yang had four lightsabers.
Sam Wall: Yeah.
Zach: Hu Yang has zero lightsabers and no implications of using one in the first season at all. So I don't know what the hell happened there. That's crazy. They wanted another Grievous.
Sam Wall: Yeah. All right. yeah, that would be insane.
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: All right, this has been our emergency pod. like, subscribe, comment, tell us what you thought of all the news, tell us pieces of news that we missed. we're almost at a thousand followers on Instagram. Once we hit it, we will give a free subscription away to our Patreon. as well as when we hit a hundred subscribers on YouTube, so
Zach: Which we're also not that far off from.
Sam Wall: Yeah. So click click that click that stuff.
Zach: This pod could do it, guys. This pod could do it.
Sam Wall: Dude, when you look back in three years and we've got a hundred K, you could have been the first one hundred.
Zach: Yeah, you're gonna remember D twenty three, twenty twenty six. Yeah, yeah.
Sam Wall: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. All right. We'll catch you guys on the next one. All right.
Zach: Peace.
Sam Wall: See ya Friday.
Zach: We're at we're at D twenty three, in our minds. In spirit.
Sam Wall: In spirit. so we're gonna bring you guys with us to react to a couple things. I've got three trailers from D23, and then on the regular pod, which will be on Spotify and all that stuff, hopefully tomorrow. So little Sunday emergency pod for you guys will be our full breakdowns and and thoughts and like all that stuff. So
Zach: Yes, sir.
Sam Wall: that's the plan for right now. I'm gonna share my screen. All right, the first trailer that we're gonna watch, both me and Zach have already seen multiple times. So we're gonna watch this one first and react to it, even though we've both seen it. Is that cool with you, Zach? Alright, this is Ahsoka
Zach: It's peak. Yes, I'll watch it a million more times.
Sam Wall: season two. if you haven't seen Ahsoka yet, there's not spoilers, so you'll be fine. Yeah.
Zach: Ahsoka's in it.
Sam Wall: Well yeah. Great ships. The music in this trailer is so good.
Zach: Bro, we got a new colored lightsaber right here.
Sam Wall: Should we also talk about Anakin's fit, bro?
Zach: Yeah, it's tough. It's Clone Wars fit. Bro, red Lucas film logo could mean crazy things.
Sam Wall: Throne does look a lot better.
Zach: He does.
Sam Wall: Mm.
Zach: Bro, I love this right here. Bro, the night sisters look insane. B wings, peak ship.
Sam Wall: Hell yeah.
Zach: I'm really excited to see more Balin and Shin.
Sam Wall: Mm. Let's go. Zeb is back.
Zach: Z Zeb Ezra reunion. Bro, Enoch versus Ezra looks crazy. Griev Yang.
Sam Wall: Bro, the gas saber is sick.
Zach: It's General Grievyang. Bro, are you a Jedi or not? Is a crazy, crazy, crazy line.
Sam Wall: It legitimately might be one of the best trailers I've ever seen in my life. I'm not even gonna lie to you.
Zach: No, I'm being dead serious. Well, the first thought I had on this is that it looks way more like a movie trailer and it should have been the movie instead of Mandalorian and Grogu. Like that was like this
Sam Wall: Yeah.
Zach: looks way more worthy of being in the cinema than Mando and Grogu did. It looks it looks huge, bro. Bro, it looks huge though. The scale looks insane.
Sam Wall: No, for sure. And everything looks great. The special effects look great. Also, the more that I've looked the more that I've looked at Thrawn today, I haven't seen Ahsoka season one yet, for those that are wondering. Thrawn looks way better than he did in season one. They removed a lot
Zach: Yeah, he does.
Sam Wall: of the fat from his face. He looks pretty skeletal and like he looks way more alien, I think.
Zach: He doesn't look as he doesn't look as clean as sleek, but in a good way. He also
Sam Wall: Yeah, I agree. Okay.
Zach: like this is like bro, this looks like it's giving Clone Wars fans what they want, Rebels fans what they want, EU fans what they want, extended like like the the original trilogy fans, you're getting a a be a continuation basically of what what happened, like a better continuation than the sequels sequels.
Sam Wall: Also loved Ezra's look with the beard, but I'm glad that we're back to like clean shave. Yeah, it's tough. No, it's tough.
Zach: Young Ezra, young looking bro, Emmanuel's Faldi is so funny, bro. I love that guy.
Sam Wall: Okay, have yeah, he's he's the boy. We need to get him on the pod, bro. He would totally do it. He would totally do it. Okay. I know
Zach: Dead ass, bro. I know. Yeah, he does seem like the type to do it. Good.
Sam Wall: you just listened to the Vision Quest trailer. Have you seen it yet? Okay.
Zach: I listened to thirty seconds of it. I've not seen it yet. 'Cause I just couldn't turn it off. Yeah, good.
Sam Wall: Okay, let's go. Paul Betney the goat. Another Star Wars legend.
Zach: W and V Wanda and Vision. I what that means? No, Wanda and Vis yeah, Wanda and Vision. I don't know much about vision, by the way.
Sam Wall: This trailer has such a similar vibe to WandaVision.
Zach: I did watch Wandavision, so I do know a little bit.
Sam Wall: Great show.
Zach: yeah. that's interesting.
Sam Wall: Crazy concept.
Zach: Ultron's back?
Sam Wall: As James Spader.
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: So tough.
Zach: Bro, Marvel really likes these mind benders.
Sam Wall: Tough.
Zach: Looks cool. Whoa. No, that looks cool.
Sam Wall: Sorry, I know we were both pretty silent through. Here's my thing. I've No,
Zach: Yeah. I was trying to really figure out what was going on, that's why.
Sam Wall: we're we're back to peak trailers, I think, because I have no idea what's going on in either one of these trailers. But this one, watching
Zach: I have an idea, like that's true, yeah. You're right.
Sam Wall: the trailer for this has me thinking like this is either going to be one of the best shows or Marvel projects of all time, or it's going to be absolute slot.
Zach: Well, to me, like I don't know if this is just a me thing, but I feel like Marvel has like this like infatuation with doing these like mind bender type shows. Like the first like five or six I don't remember how many episodes WandaVision is, but like you have no idea what the f Yeah, but you don't know what the fuck's
Sam Wall: Dude, WandaVision was an experience, a cultural phenomenon.
Zach: you really don't know what the fuck is going on for the first couple episodes, like at all. And
Sam Wall: No, for sure.
Zach: like Loki's the same kind of way. Like Loki's takes a minute.
Sam Wall: And Moon Knight.
Zach: Yeah, they're all like weird. They're all like fucking
Sam Wall: Yeah.
Zach: out there. They use like the shows to be out there.
Sam Wall: Well and then they stopped doing it for a while and I'm glad they're kinda coming back around to it a little bit. Hopefully they stick the landing.
Zach: No, yeah, I think it's a I think it's a cool concept. I'm not like over the moon excited, but I I will watch it for sure.
Sam Wall: No yeah, it's it it looks pretty dope.
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: and one of my biggest criticisms of Age of Ultron is that it's the only time we ever got Ultron. Like I wish we'd kind of built up to it or like whatever or we got 'cause James Spader is so good as Ultron and I'm glad that he's
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: back.
Zach: No any Ultron content I'm here for. I fuck with Ultron for sure.
Sam Wall: All right, last but not least, the one we've all been waiting for.
Zach: Do you have the Starfighter
Sam Wall: Bro.
Zach: trailer or no?
Sam Wall: I can pull it up.
Zach: All right, we should do that real quick too.
Sam Wall: Yeah, for sure. Bro, I've even had to avoid
Zach: You're saying the one we all been you said you're saying the one we'd all been waiting for, but let me tell you, I waited years for the Ahsoka season two trailers, just so you know. All right, let's do it. Doomsday.
Sam Wall: Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Avengers doomsday. I've even I've even had to avoid edits like the Plague today. They're already all over the internet. So
Zach: Yeah, I've saw I saw a few clips that were like longer versions of like stuff we've already seen, but I haven't seen the whole thing, so
Sam Wall: Yeah. Okay, here we go. Aura already.
Zach: That is Aura. This seems like it's just gonna be doom fucking going crazy.
Sam Wall: Okay, so Fantastic Four already know this doom.
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: man, all of them together so crazy.
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: so his family is dead. I know that from the comics, but
Zach: Is that Sue Storm talking?
Sam Wall: yeah.
Zach: That's tough.
Sam Wall: Aura dude.
Zach: I think that was Wait, hold on.
Sam Wall: He destroyed another universe.
Zach: We gotta go back after that.
Sam Wall: Yo. Yo dude. Yo.
Zach: That's crazy.
Sam Wall: my gosh.
Zach: this is the line. This is the line. This was rumored, but it's real. Yo Yo sentinels That's crazy
Sam Wall: Let's go dude!
Zach: Bro he's got a Sentinel army
Sam Wall: my gosh, bro. You're kidding me. You're kidding me.
Zach: That was crazy. That looks that looks good. Wait, can you
Sam Wall: Bro.
Zach: wait real quick, can you back it up to the city? Like when they first
Sam Wall: Yeah.
Zach: show the city? There, there, there, there, there. Bro, that's New York. Is that not New York?
Sam Wall: Yeah, that's New York in another world. No, it seems like he's destroying timelines that he says are stolen.
Zach: Okay, so I've seen a lot of I haven't watched I haven't
Sam Wall: Wait, let's get some of this let's get some of this dialogue one more time.
Zach: Okay
Sam Wall: Hold on.
Zach: Yeah, he's definitely doing that incursion shit.
Sam Wall: Or
Zach: Yeah, I love that shot. Get shit on. That's a crazy thing to put in the trailer to be honest. Yeah, no, that shit crazy.
Sam Wall: Yeah, bro. They should have released this trailer first. What are we doing? This is way better than the first trailer.
Zach: Yeah, I agree. I didn't need to see ever I I think they wanted to show the first trailer first because everybody was in it and like like kind
Sam Wall: Yeah.
Zach: of like doing shit. This one it's hard to see everybody.
Sam Wall: That's like that's like infinity war level level trailer, bro.
Zach: Well, I think what this one is, is it highlights Doom being his it's his movie and I think that's what it is.
Sam Wall: Yeah, bro.
Zach: I think that's what they're focusing on for sure, so
Sam Wall: All right, y'all. we're hopping over to the emergency pod. Find us
Zach: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Pull up the starfighter real quick if you can.
Sam Wall: right, right, right, right. Hold on, we got one more.
Zach: I mean shit, we can't leave it out. If we could
Sam Wall: Do do doo doo doo.
Zach: find it, you should be able to find it.
Sam Wall: Be easy.
Zach: I have it on Instagram, I could send it to you if you want. Did you see it or no?
Sam Wall: That's not it. I actually think that I did they announced a Bluey movie.
Zach: we gotta react to that. I'm just kidding. Yo, we got what was it? I saw bro, Hat Guy's definitely having a field day. I saw Hat guy I or I saw Coco 2, Incredibles three, and Zootopia three. Bro's gonna fucking
Sam Wall: sure.
Zach: lose his shit. T OT did an emergency pod for Ahsoka as well, so the vibes are high.
Sam Wall: Fire.
Zach: All the pods are firing right now. All the nerd media pods. I could
Sam Wall: All right, everybody.
Zach: did you find it?
Sam Wall: Think so.
Zach: I could send it to you if you have Instagram on your computer.
Sam Wall: I don't have Instagram on my computer. I know the one that I'm
Zach: I
Sam Wall: looking for. I did see it earlier. I just need to pull up. I think I saw it on X though. Let me see if I can find an X link.
Zach: One thing I'll say while you're saying that, or while you're finding it about Doomsday is I think they're trying not to show too much, but like it does like it looks a little unfinished still. And like I'm not normally one to say that. Like it does look like just like CGI overload in some in some like parts, to be honest.
Sam Wall: Yeah. Okay, we're gonna
Zach: You agree with that?
Sam Wall: watch it on on Reddit. It's gonna be a little blurry 'cause it's a leak.
Zach: fuck yeah, I love Reddit.
Sam Wall: Hold on. Let me
Zach: No, it's fine.
Sam Wall: Ryan Gasling Peak. What a handsome man. That's a great chip.
Zach: Fastest star fighter ever built.
Sam Wall: Few no ball.
Zach: No, he just said it, bro.
Sam Wall: no. I was making a joke.
Zach: Fuck dude, wait, wait, wait. That we gotta go back to that jacket when we're done. Alright, fuck it. Bro, pause on that jacket when it comes up. I don't know if you saw it.
Sam Wall: Dude, you sent me a picture of it.
Zach: Yeah, it's fucking insane. It's actually insane. yeah.
Sam Wall: Wait. Wait.
Zach: It's more up for a few seconds. Bro, look at that
Sam Wall: There we go.
Zach: shit. Upside down Rebel logo with two guns and like a skull and crossbones is so sick, bro. Like it's giving
Sam Wall: Maybe they'll sell it. That would be tough.
Zach: Bro, they probably will. It's probably gonna be a big thing, to be honest. Bro, the minifig with that jacket on, they already confirmed three Starfighter sets.
Sam Wall: Yeah. Continue.
Zach: That's gonna be cra yeah, go. A ship is tough.
Sam Wall: It looks so sick. The design is great.
Zach: This looks crazy. I don't even know what the fuck's going on here, but it looks cool.
Sam Wall: Star Wars in their world design, bro.
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: Love a good jump across a chasm scene in Star Wars.
Zach: Yeah, bro, I'm not gonna lie. I think that Ryan Gosling is what Star Wars needs right now. Like, I didn't really think
Sam Wall: Yeah, I agree.
Zach: that at first, but like I honestly think that like him this being his movie is huge. I think it looks cool. I mean, obviously you don't get much from that, but it it's cool that we saw a little bit of it at least.
Sam Wall: Yeah. All right. We're moving over now. We'll talk about it more on the actual emergency pod. Okay.
Zach: Let's go.
Sam Wall: All right. Welcome back to the topic. We are talking D twenty three news. Yeah, we're talking everything. Yeah, I'm just gonna cut it. We're already in it. We're in it right now. All right, emergency pod. Yeah. Yeah.
Zach: Wait, wait, wait, are you just gonna like cut it and then like all right, all right, bet all right. All right, fuck it. All right. Wait, just start it over, just Okay. right. Emergency pod, emergency pod, emergency pod.
Sam Wall: Welcome back to the topic. we are here with D23 news. We just reacted to some trailers over on the Patreon. If you want to see our reactions to a bunch of the trailers from D23, go over to the Patreon. The link will be in the description. We just watched the Starfighter trailer that has been leaked online. Let's talk about that first. Here's the first thing I would like to say. It's the first Star Wars project we've gotten in a while where the camera work looks kind of saucy.
Zach: It's kind of fucking sick.
Sam Wall: Yeah, like there like there's actual blocking. People are walking with intention to places and having conversations with intention. Like
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: it like I was worried about Sean Levy, but it it looks good.
Zach: No, looks good. It looks good. I I think we can't really say much more than it looks cool right now, 'cause like we
Sam Wall: Yeah.
Zach: don't really know much. But like before this we had nothing. Like we had a picture of Ryan Gosling and a kid, and that was it. That was the whole thing. So now we know the
Sam Wall: And you know what?
Zach: ship he has and the jacket he's wearing. Yeah. Okay.
Sam Wall: You know what makes me feel that they understand what they're making is actually
Zach: Hm.
Sam Wall: the retro Star Wars logo at the end of the trailer.
Zach: I do I do agree with that. That did catch my eye. That was an eye catching thing
Sam Wall: It
Zach: for sure.
Sam Wall: it definitely very feels very intentional of like we know what we're making. We want this to be like old Star Wars.
Zach: Yeah, and like the flipped rebel logo in the Skull and Crossbones on Ryan Gosling's jacket is like kinda outlaw way after the rebels are like, you know, gone, like type vibes. Like that's sick. The Starfighter's cool.
Sam Wall: Also encouraged to see that the kid is not like 'cause in the original promo picture for the movie, the kid looks mad young. Yeah.
Zach: It looked like he was really little. Yeah.
Sam Wall: But he looks like he could legitimately be very good, which is good.
Zach: No, yeah, he looks he looks a little older than I thought for sure. Yeah.
Sam Wall: Yeah, no for sure. And Ryan Gosling's aura farming as always. Which is so tough.
Zach: he's going crazy. No, like I just said, I think Star Wars needs this. I think it I think it is a lot more promising looking than Mandalorian Grogu. Like Mandalorian Grogu offers nothing new. Like you can go watch the first three seasons, you watch the movie, you're not getting anything new.
Sam Wall: Yeah. I mean I mean we'll we'll use this
Zach: Except Embo Aura farming, that's it.
Sam Wall: let let's use this as a direct segue into Ahsoka because like Mandalorian Grogu is kind of just like come watch Star Wars. It'll be fun. Like
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: just come and watch it and you'll have a good time and you'll
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: leave and it won't be anything crazy. Both Ahsoka and Starfighter seem like they have mad intention behind them of
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: like reviving what we've lost, which
Zach: I don't think you understand how actually excited I am for Ahsoka season two. Like I am juiced.
Sam Wall: Dude, I understand. You're the number one glazer of that show.
Zach: And and I'm happy about it right now 'cause everyone seems to be jumping on the bandwagon after this fucking trailer and I've been glazing season one for a long time.
Sam Wall: I will say, I've seen one episode of Ahsoka. I've seen one episode. Yep. I've seen one episode. We'll talk later. We'll talk later.
Zach: You watched it? What happens in the first episode again? I don't really remember. All right, all right.
Sam Wall: yeah, both Ahsoka and Starfighter, obviously we haven't seen a ton of both of them, but everybody that has talked about both of them seems very, very passionate about what they're doing. And what this means to me is that It feels to me that there is so much intention behind reviving everything that we've lost through all of these bad projects. Like,
Zach: Hundred percent.
Sam Wall: I think there's so much intention behind using a retro Star Wars logo, using like a Rebel logo, like bringing back all the Rebels characters and
Zach: Dude, it's not even bringing back all the rebels characters. It feels like they're trying to bring they're trying to make the most Star Wars project they can make with Ahsoka. Like they are bringing in every element that they possibly can. Like I said, from the extended universe stuff, like we're bringing a bunch of Clone Wars shit back. We're bringing Rebels into it. It's a lot of cool shit. Like it is really cool. And and they're taking the approach, like Thrawn's like, I'm declaring all out war on the rebels. Like he still thinks the rebels are fully. in gear and like he's treating it like the empire is not dead, which is like a cool fucking vibe.
Sam Wall: Well, and also I think what's so exciting about it as well is that whether people like the prequels or not, the peak of Star Wars popularity was in the space and time in which we were getting Clone Wars, we were getting rebels, we were getting the prequels, like we were existing in this time where we had the Legos, we had the action figures, we had the ships that you can buy, we had like all of these shows to watch. Kids were into it, adults were into it, adults were liked watching Clone Wars weekly with their kids. And we are bringing all of that stuff back in order to
Zach: Yeah, that was a good time. Yeah.
Sam Wall: like bring things back to the way that they were.
Zach: Yeah, bro. A hundred percent. And like f I like also like Feloni said multiple times, he's like, We have put a lot of work into Ahsoka season two. And like everyone's kinda like, All right, bro, like where's Ahsoka season two? I think it's gonna be worth the wait. I think it looks like I said, the first thing I said about the trailer is it looks like a movie trailer, bro. It does not look like a show trailer. It is huge. It is an epic scope type trailer. Like it looks fucking massive. and
Sam Wall: Yeah. And
Zach: then the Yeah.
Sam Wall: here's here's the last thing that I'll say on the reviving thing. Like
Zach: Mm-hmm.
Sam Wall: I think Starfighter is bringing back our huge box office movies. Cause
Zach: Mm-hmm.
Sam Wall: there are three big things that we had in Star Wars at its peak. We had the big box office movies, we had Rebels, and we had Clone Wars. We are bringing
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: back the box office movies through Starfighter, we are bringing back Clone Wars through Maul. And we are bringing back like everything like rebels through Ahsoka, which like we're bringing back all of the pillars.
Zach: Yeah. Bro, Ahsoka season two is essentially Rebels live action at this point. But I'm like here for it. Like it's worth it. Yeah.
Sam Wall: Yeah, bro, we're bringing back all of the pillars. It's awesome.
Zach: The entire Rebels crew is gonna be in this season, so that's fucking sick. Also, like, dude, Ahsoka's does so many cool things, right? Like, I know you haven't watched it, so I'm not gonna give anything away, but like Balin and Shin are two extremely awesome, interesting live action characters. Like so fucking awesome, and I cannot wait to see more of them in this show. Like it is gonna be so cool. The other thing I'll say is I jumped on Instagram saying how jealous I was of Marvel for having so many huge announcements and how it looks like they're so back and that Star Wars is falling off. But honestly, I I I take I retract my statement completely because it feels like less is more right now. And I feel like if they nail Ahsoka season two, they nail Starfighter and they nail Maul S Shadow Lord season two. That is giving us, like you said, all three pillars, a great animated series, a great movie, and a great live action series. And I honestly think that if they just show they can perform with quality, everyone will be back on board.
Sam Wall: Yeah, I think the franchise will will come back to life. Absolutely.
Zach: Yeah, I kind of came to that revelation earlier. I was like, bro, I think they got so I think they know what they're doing. I trust more than I thought.
Sam Wall: Yeah. Yeah. No, absolutely. I agree with you one hundred percent.
Zach: How many times or how many times you think Feloni's gonna put himself in Ahsoka?
Sam Wall: Bro, a lot. Okay. I yeah, before we jump we did we will talk Doomsday. We will talk Doomsday. I promise. first
Zach: Yeah. Yeah.
Sam Wall: we should talk about some of these MCU announcements. Cause I think it's safe to say the MCU's back. I
Zach: Grow.
Sam Wall: wouldn't say superheroes are back. I wouldn't say superhero fatigue doesn't exist right now. I think we're seeing that so much with the DCU. But
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: I think MCU's back, bro. Like genuinely.
Zach: Well, I think it's just a matter of doing it w well. Then everyone will be back, like I said, like, you know.
Sam Wall: Yeah, would you would you like to talk about your favorite X Men casting?
Zach: What do mean? Rogue. It's rogue.
Sam Wall: No, okay. So let's talk about a couple of the ones that we got. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We got we got Kate Connor as Cyclops. We got which was a huge reaction, which was pretty crazy. Samara
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: Weaving as Bro, I almost said Storm. She's definitely not Storm. Nah, she's somebody. Let's
Zach: I don't have the list up by the way. Yeah, no. Do you have the list up? Because there's quite a few of them.
Sam Wall: see. Hold on. Hold on.
Zach: Yeah, there's more there's more than like I could pull it up if you want.
Sam Wall: Okay, I got it. All right, here's our D twenty three cast. Sadie Sync, obviously, the best of them.
Zach: As Gene Gray.
Sam Wall: As Gene Gray. We've got Kit Connor as our Cyclops. We got Christopher Abbott as our new Professor X, Indy Naiveretti as Rogue, which is a surprise to everybody. Maya Boyd,
Zach: Yeah, that's crazy.
Sam Wall: which got a very small reaction as as Sue Storm. So interested to see where that goes. And then we also got Samara Weaving, and it's not saying who she is. Who she is, bro.
Zach: What well you're missing a big one.
Sam Wall: as Emma Frost. And then the final one, which is Adam Driver as Mr. Sinister.
Zach: There it is. Yeah.
Sam Wall: which I'm incredibly hype about. We got we talked on Nerd News in
Zach: Bro s they stole they stole Kylo Ren, bro.
Sam Wall: Yeah, in in the last episode we did nerd news and we talked about a potential casting that we had already for Mr. Sinister. I didn't really know who the guy was, but it seemed cool. Adam Driver, so much tougher. So much tougher, bro. Like
Zach: Yeah, bro. They definitely go for star power, I'll say that. I mean, if I'm
Sam Wall: No, for sure.
Zach: if I'm not a movie guy and I'm recognizing almost every single name they're casting, it's definitely pretty big.
Sam Wall: And Adam Driver's just he he just has so much aura. I can't even
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: explain it. Like every time that he's on screen, I'm just like, yo, it's Adam Driver. No, for sure.
Zach: No, that one that one makes sense. That one's cool for sure. Yeah.
Sam Wall: trying to think if there were any other Marvel announcements other than Doomsday.
Zach: No, I don't think there was. I think it was X Men comes
Sam Wall: There were some
Zach: out in I think it's May fifth, twenty twenty eight. That was big too. Well bro, X
Sam Wall: Yeah, which is exciting. So it it should be
Zach: Men, Black Panther three, and Ghost Rider all twenty twenty eight confirmed. Big year. Big year.
Sam Wall: Yeah. Yeah. Insane. Yeah, for sure. We're gonna have a huge year in twenty twenty eight.
Zach: And the Batman too.
Sam Wall: Yeah, bro. They keep pushing that one back. We might get that one in twenty thirty, not gonna lie. But this wasn't D
Zach: Yeah. Bro, what are they try all right, really r for
Sam Wall: twenty three, but we did get a leaked trailer for Beyond the Spider Verse, which looks in
Zach: shit, yeah, that did happen. I did watch it too.
Sam Wall: cr it looks incredible.
Zach: Yeah, I had no I had no doubts though, to be honest.
Sam Wall: No, me either, but I love the route that they took with the trailer of just like picking up the ending. And like
Zach: Yeah, no, I I'm very happy they did that too, because I think that everyone, including myself's like big thing is of like why into the spider verse is so much better than a cross is because it's i it feels incomplete. And I'm not faulting that on the movie per se, because I know it's going to be completed, but when you're left on that big of a cliffhanger for that long, it does it doesn't sit as well with you as into. That was very tied up. Really? I thought
Sam Wall: Yeah, I mean I think I like a cross more, but I think
Zach: you and you had into way higher on your list.
Sam Wall: Maybe. Maybe. They flip flop for me. They're they're they're very close for me though. They're very close for me.
Zach: You had into at one, bro. I'm telling you, I know. You had into and the reason I know this is because we both had into and brand new day as one too. Alright.
Sam Wall: They are very close for me. And something that I'm incredibly impressed with is like it feels like we never left.
Zach: Yeah, no, I don't think so at all. I think it hits even
Sam Wall: No. Like
Zach: harder that I just rewatched them, so it felt like even more refreshing.
Sam Wall: Well, like it's been years and the tone doesn't feel any different. The art feels like on par, like, you know, it's just it's awesome. The vibe is still good. There's
Zach: No, yeah, it looks awesome. Yeah, no, it was cool.
Sam Wall: there are some hilarious jokes in that first sixty seconds of that clip that are awesome.
Zach: Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
Sam Wall: yeah, it's gonna go crazy. I'm really excited about that. Okay, doomsday.
Zach: Yeah. Bro, real quick before we f before we move on, like are they actually trying to dra like like cast the best fucking looking X-Men squad they possibly can? Like it's actually insane. Bro, like all the memes are s all all the memes
Sam Wall: for sure. for sure. It's gonna bring people to the theater, bruh. That's all I gotta say.
Zach: are so bro, it's gonna bring me to the X Mansion. That's all I'm gonna say. Yeah. Bro.
Sam Wall: We will be there for different reasons.
Zach: Bro, it's so the memes are so funny, bro. The memes are so funny.
Sam Wall: Yeah. No. It's gonna be a heyday for the next like week and a half, two weeks.
Zach: Yeah, bro.
Sam Wall: Doomsday trailer, insane. Like, I
Zach: Yeah, it's really good.
Sam Wall: don't know if if if I've been more hyped for the movie than I am right now. Genuinely.
Zach: Yeah, wait, I wanted to say this too. When we were talking about New York, like you could clearly see New York in the trailer. And like do you said Dooms like going down the Yeah, I know. But like
Sam Wall: No, that was Central Park too. Like for sure.
Zach: but I've s I keep seeing people bringing up the Toby theory and it seems to be like more and more like it could happen.
Sam Wall: I don't think that it will. No.
Zach: No? All right.
Sam Wall: another announcement. Wolverine is officially in Doomsday. Hugh Jackman. Which
Zach: I did see that as well. Yeah.
Sam Wall: is tough. I I don't think Toby Maguire will be in it. I would be incredibly surprised if he wasn't in Secret Wars though. Incredibly surprised. But
Zach: Yeah. Yeah.
Sam Wall: I feel like if they put Toby Maguire in Doomsday, there will be too much going on. Genuinely.
Zach: Well, dude, I yeah,
Sam Wall: Because
Zach: I think that's my concern at the moment still a little bit. Like I think it'll be fine, but I and also I loved Andrew from the Escape Pod's take and like it kind of re-warped my opinion on this movie, whereas like everyone was looking
Sam Wall: It's
Zach: for this build-up for like Thanos level villain. Everyone comes together to for this big final battle, Infinity War Endgame style. But he was like, What if we just view it as the first Avengers and this is like the stomping grounds for everything that's to come with Marvel and all these new characters are interacting for the first time and then they're gonna take that and run with it with the new X Men movie and all that other shit.
Sam Wall: I I like that take too and hearing Andrew say that like a year ago definitely flipped my perspective a little bit too. I think the more that I see how many people they've brought back from previous eras of Marvel though has has soiled that a little bit for me of just like
Zach: I still I still don't like Steve Rogers in the trailer. It does not fire me up.
Sam Wall: Yeah, no, it doesn't fit, I don't think. But I will
Zach: It doesn't fire me up.
Sam Wall: say, did you see his interview where he was like the Russos like to make him suffer?
Zach: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I did see that. I did see that, yeah.
Sam Wall: I think I think his I think his kid and Peggy might die, Loki.
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: I don't know if Marvel would kill a baby. That seems intense. But
Zach: I just know that I'm way more fucking hyped for Shang Chi than Steve Rogers.
Sam Wall: Yeah, bro. Seeing Shaang Chi Shaong Chi's in that trailer for literally one second. Like literally one second.
Zach: Yeah. That's why I like the first trailer Loki better because of the Gambit Chung Chi fight. That's it.
Sam Wall: Yeah, yeah. I mean Shang-Chi's gonna mog that whole
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: movie. I love how powerful Doom is. I love the Sentinels. The Sentinels rising up out of the ground at the end. Insane. And
Zach: Yeah, that was s really cool. That was really cool. Doom popping out of that building like flying like head first is crazy too.
Sam Wall: Yeah, RDJ's voice sounds great. The costumes,
Zach: Yeah, it was really good.
Sam Wall: I would say, look great. the shots
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: continue to look better. They still don't look amazing yet.
Zach: I agree, bro. I'm not I'm absolutely not blown away by the way it looks. I'm really not. I'm just I
Sam Wall: Yeah. Yeah.
Zach: it looks like I understand that it's like a dark vibe too. So like I'm keep taking that into consideration. But like, dude, it just doesn't it doesn't look amazing. It just doesn't. It just doesn't.
Sam Wall: Yeah, and I I do think part of the hard part for me too is we've just gotten so many amazing looking movies this year. Project Kell Mary, The Odyssey,
Zach: Yeah. Yeah.
Sam Wall: Spider-Man Brand New Day. And so seeing this after watching all of those, it looks pretty bad. Yeah, dude. Dune part
Zach: Bro, the Dune part three trailer is one of the best looking trailers I've ever seen.
Sam Wall: three trailer. Like we've got four of these incredible cinematography, like filmed like films.
Zach: Yeah. And even though Mando and Grogu wasn't amazing, like, dude, it was still very well done. And they had a lot of practical sets and the filming was really, really good. Like, just it's not an excuse anymore to make things not look great.
Sam Wall: Yeah, and and to be fair, most of this trailer takes place in decimated New York. And so
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: it's not like you can film that practically. But you could have at least you could you could film New York you could you could film New York a little bit
Zach: Bro, I'll go blow New York up. I'm just kidding.
Sam Wall: and like fill it in with CGI, but I feel like no matter what it's gonna look like a volume a little bit. but dude, the also the longer that we sit on the
Zach: Yeah. Yeah. And look, at the end of the day it's coming from
Sam Wall: volume, the less that I like it.
Zach: Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. A hundred percent. Yeah.
Sam Wall: Ca can we stop using the volume, bro? It's dumb.
Zach: I know. It I agree. And like I think that's like dude, we we reiterate this all the time. I don't care that it's Marvel. There's a way to do it where it looks good. I think Thor Ragnarok was one of the best examples of that. Looks fucking awesome. Guardians of the Galaxy looks fucking awesome. And then a better example of that is The Winter Soldier. Like that movie, obviously it's not very fantastical, but like it's Very limited in its, you know, in CGI usage and all that shit. Like it's a very real looking movie. It's like we said, it's more of a spy movie. But like when they get the Avengers movies going, they definitely have a tendency to like wanna go toward like CGI slop looking shit.
Sam Wall: Yeah. Well also I think another problem with it too is throughout this entire trailer we're either in the X Mansion, which is this really enclosed space where
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: like it's almost claustrophobic, and then we're in this mad open, decimated area. And both of those are set up to look kinda dumb. yeah.
Zach: Yeah, we haven't seen anything else either, so yeah. But dude, I'm not gonna lie, even the even this opening scene where Doom is sitting on his throne, it looks like he's sitting in a green screen room. A little bit. No, he it's sick.
Sam Wall: Yeah. He's aura farming in the green screen room though.
Zach: It's fucking sick. And like green screens are green and he's green too. So like it works, but like shit. Yeah. I don't know. It's a it's
Sam Wall: Facts. Facts. Yeah.
Zach: nitpicky and I and look, I'm I'm I'm just saying this right now. I'm probably gonna eat my words and it's probably gonna look good in the theaters. I think I'm you know, that's very we're not getting very much of it, but like, dude, even the Starfighter trailer right away, like it looks fucking awesome. Like it looks w very well shot. So like well like we were saying, so it's just I think it's just everything else looking
Sam Wall: Even think my problem either.
Zach: so good.
Sam Wall: I don't even think my problem necessarily either with some of the shots is that it looks too green screen. I think some
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: shots almost look too perfect, so much so that it's like uncanny. Like
Zach: Yeah, that's fair.
Sam Wall: like Doom has this weird feeling of like, even though I know Downey is like in a costume, like it looks uncanny. Like
Zach: Yeah, no, I agree. I agree. I mean the shots of Doom in general are cool, but like, yeah, I get what you're saying.
Sam Wall: If it had just been the scene of Thor and Doom, that would have got me just as hype. Just as that
Zach: Yeah, I agree. I don't
Sam Wall: scene is insane. Why did they cut
Zach: Yeah, no, it's really good. It's really good.
Sam Wall: the dialogue out in the first trailer? Like
Zach: Yeah, the dialogue would have got me way more excited in the first trailer. That w that when we
Sam Wall: Yeah.
Zach: heard we heard about that line through a tweet. And we were more hyped about that we
Sam Wall: And we were fired up, bro.
Zach: were more hyped about that tweet than the trailer. And then hearing it in the trailer was so so much better.
Sam Wall: Yeah, the delivery is insane. I'm so hyped for this movie. I mean
Zach: Yeah. I'm so hyped for you to watch Ahsoka so we could talk about the implications of what's in that trailer.
Sam Wall: I how many episodes is Ahsoka? Ten episodes?
Zach: No, it's eight episodes, I think.
Sam Wall: Well then how about I try and watch it this week and we'll talk about it with with our guest for next week.
Zach: Houston. shit. We could blur we could bleep that. It's all right. No yeah, a hundred percent. Dude it's dude, there's so much cool shit in that trailer. I'm so hyped.
Sam Wall: so that's most of our talk for you guys. This is most of 'cause we don't have that much time anyways. This is our emergency pod. vision quest. Looks crazy,
Zach: Vision quest, you wanna touch on that real quick? vision quests. Yeah.
Sam Wall: could be super dumb.
Zach: Could be dumb, could be cool. I think it's gonna be I you
Sam Wall: Love seeing James Spader back though.
Zach: know what I think it's gonna be? I think it's gonna be one of those situations where if you really liked WandaVision, you're probably gonna like Vision Quest. If you didn't love WandaVision, you're probably not gonna like Vision Quest.
Sam Wall: I think I have the worry that I have with a lot of these Marvel shows of it's gonna be really awesome the first few episodes when it's really weird and none of us know what's going on, and then when they try
Zach: Mm-hmm.
Sam Wall: to explain it it's gonna be really dumb and I'm really gonna hate it.
Zach: I got a I got a good one. I got a good one. Who did D who who got you more excited during D twenty three? Star Wars or Marvel?
Sam Wall: Star Wars. Star Wars. Easily. Star
Zach: Let's go. A hundred percent.
Sam Wall: Wars had more cool stuff to talk about. Like, other
Zach: I agree.
Sam Wall: than like X-Men and Doomsday, which are big things and are cool. Like, everything
Zach: Yeah. I think
Sam Wall: that we got from Star Wars is tangible. Like, we already had
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: a trailer for Doomsday, and we already knew a lot of these X-Men castings. Like, what we got from Star Wars is
Zach: Yeah, Vision Quest is also like it's like another show, another Marvel show. It's like doesn't look like it's gonna break the worth. Yeah.
Sam Wall: Yeah, and we've known it's coming for like forever. It's cool to see Ultron back, but like that doesn't give me f
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: like fi like I love seeing Hayden Christensen is is still gonna be a big part of season two. Like we low key 'cause
Zach: That's that's exciting.
Sam Wall: I mean, I've been a part of discourse of Ahsoka for like a long time since season one came out. And like
Zach: Yeah. Yeah.
Sam Wall: Hayden Christensen came back, but like the question's always up in the air of like how long will he keep doing this?
Zach: It looks like he's gonna go bigger in this season. Like he's a big part of it.
Sam Wall: Yeah, 'cause the like for some reason, most of the fandom for Star Wars hates that guy. Like,
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: I'm really impressed that he's thickened it out and I love him for it.
Zach: No, I honestly think that he's having like a victory lap right now. I think he was hated for
Sam Wall: No, for sure.
Zach: a really long time and now everyone's really excited that he's back. Because
Sam Wall: Have you heard the story of like at the Revenge of the Sith premiere, he came out and everybody booed him? Yeah.
Zach: I have. Fucking disgraceful, bro. It's the best movie ever made.
Sam Wall: Ha.
Zach: Bro, but also the more you think about the world between worlds, as much as you could say you wish it didn't happen or the concept didn't exist or whatever, it is cool now. Now it's cool in Ahsoka, in my opinion. I like it now. I didn't love
Sam Wall: Yeah.
Zach: it in Rebels, but I like it now. Bro, like Obi-Wan could pop up. I feel like Blue could possibly pop up. Like, I've been thinking about this shit. Like, it it it's not out of the question. It's not out the question. That could be pretty
Sam Wall: Yeah. Yeah, for sure.
Zach: crazy. Bro, I saw someone comment on my trailer post today. They were like, bro, I have this inkling that calcestis is gonna be an Ahsoka. I was like, I don't even know how that would really make sense, but I had to think about it. I was like, I mean, I guess it's
Sam Wall: Dude, what if what if we got what if we got Sam Whitworth's star killer? I mean he's not canon anymore, but that would be insane.
Zach: Yeah, that would be Yeah, dude.
Sam Wall: That would be insane.
Zach: I think we are getting a lot of cool shit though. Like, also, like well, I guess I can't talk too much about it, but you saw Hu Yang had four lightsabers.
Sam Wall: Yeah.
Zach: Hu Yang has zero lightsabers and no implications of using one in the first season at all. So I don't know what the hell happened there. That's crazy. They wanted another Grievous.
Sam Wall: Yeah. All right. yeah, that would be insane.
Zach: Yeah.
Sam Wall: All right, this has been our emergency pod. like, subscribe, comment, tell us what you thought of all the news, tell us pieces of news that we missed. we're almost at a thousand followers on Instagram.
