Is the new Garfield movie reboot worth your time, or just another nostalgia cash-in? Join us as we dissect the new characters Vic and Jinx, speculate on Garfield's father-son subplot, and debate whether Jinx might be more than she seems. We'll also voice our disappointment with the lack of adult humor and ponder the tropes and pitfalls common to children's movies.
How does Chris Pratt stack up against Garfield's iconic lazy persona? Our discussion heats up as we argue whether Nick Offerman would have been a better fit for the voice role. From the buddy dynamic of Garfield and Odie’s original film to the father-son reunion theme of the reboot, we evaluate which plot resonates more and share our mixed feelings about watching the movie with kids. Plus, we reminisce about the charm of actors like Hannah Waddington and Brett Goldstein, and critique the quality of the CGI rendering.
Lastly, we take a nostalgic journey through Garfield's rich history, from plush toys and comic strips to Sunday comics and the 1988 TV series. We touch on fascinating trivia, like the Easter egg of Garfield's comic strip debut date, and chuckle over the peculiar 90s trend of cartoon characters on car windows. As we wrap up, we share our excitement for a slew of upcoming movies and shows, including the much-anticipated Deadpool 4, Dog Man, and the Atlas series on Netflix. Don’t miss out on our lively debate and hearty laughs in this episode!

00:02:32.174 --> 00:02:39.665
All right, well, let's go ahead and get a summary from our dear sweet listener, jess.
00:02:39.665 --> 00:02:41.889
Well, I'm host.
00:02:41.889 --> 00:02:43.711
Well, you listen to the podcast.
00:02:45.894 --> 00:02:46.754
And you also host it.
00:02:52.161 --> 00:02:54.663
Our hostess, our little Debbie.
00:02:54.663 --> 00:02:58.406
Hostess Jess Garfield, odie Lasagna, mondays, there you go All right.
00:02:58.445 --> 00:03:10.356
Well, jumping into our differences in the reboot, we're going to go ahead and keep kicking off this new format here for season three, and so I want to talk a little bit about the protagonist and the antagonist here in the reboot.
00:03:10.356 --> 00:03:19.848
So in this in the reboot in the Garfield movie 2024, here we added Vic and his former partner Jinx, to the film.
00:03:19.848 --> 00:03:35.782
Jinx is the primary antagonist which sets up the main conflict for the movie, which is, of course say it with me, mike, the milk ice, yeah, uh, which is, let's be honest, the best kind of ice you could possibly have.
00:03:36.223 --> 00:03:37.224
well, I don't know.
00:03:37.224 --> 00:03:42.324
I would rather get the cheese, but I mean well, I mean, the milk makes the cheese like.
00:03:42.343 --> 00:03:45.632
you can't go into the cheese plant and the cheese stands alone.
00:03:46.020 --> 00:03:47.123
Yeah, except it does.
00:03:47.344 --> 00:03:48.930
You can't go in the pine cone.
00:03:49.881 --> 00:03:51.186
That's true, alright.
00:03:51.186 --> 00:03:59.746
So how did adding this mission and or goal, so to speak, to the movie help drive the subplot of Garfield meeting his dad, and do you think it worked?
00:03:59.746 --> 00:04:03.342
Or was there just another way they should have went with the meeting with his father?
00:04:03.342 --> 00:04:09.570
Or was this just another way they should have went with the meeting with his father, or was?
00:04:10.592 --> 00:04:13.836
this, just you know, a typical fetch quest in Fallout it was definitely a fetch quest.
00:04:16.519 --> 00:04:19.951
Yeah, like is his dad even in any other Garfield media?
00:04:19.951 --> 00:04:20.653
I don't think so.
00:04:20.653 --> 00:04:29.492
I actually was looking in the trivia to see if they were pulling this story from somewhere and I didn't see anywhere where it was mentioned his dad in any way shape or form.
00:04:30.052 --> 00:04:36.526
Yeah, I think they just went with it Cause I mean, it's like the Garth the new movie is.
00:04:36.526 --> 00:04:59.033
It's like very much a kid's movie and I feel like this is like pretty much a you could do like a whole podcast of along the lines of sci-fi camp with kids movie tropes, and I feel like this like estranged parent who's really not as bad as the kid thinks they are, and kind of gaming moment at the end, like this is like textbook, like modern kids storyline, like it.
00:04:59.033 --> 00:05:09.343
Just it's low-hanging fruit, it's familiar, it's, you know, there's relatively low stakes, you know, and it's just it.
00:05:09.343 --> 00:05:10.064
It works.
00:05:10.505 --> 00:05:28.302
It works well for a movie targeting, you know, young children right, which I think and that was actually something I mentioned to jess when we left the theater was yeah, I found it like I think the reason why and spoiler here did not care for this remake or this reboot.
00:05:28.302 --> 00:05:34.053
I think the reason why, though, was because there was no part of it that was meant for adults.
00:05:34.053 --> 00:05:44.807
Like you know, like a lot of kids movies, like dreamworks movies or pixar movies or whatever, a lot of times they have like adult only jokes, you know, like things that go over the kids heads, but the adults find funny.
00:05:44.807 --> 00:05:50.673
I couldn't think of one in this movie I, there were, there were a few.
00:05:51.495 --> 00:05:53.644
There were a few very like subtle things.
00:05:53.644 --> 00:05:59.434
Especially there was one towards the end of the movie where he's like walking across the street or actually I think it was the beginning.
00:05:59.434 --> 00:06:19.788
He's walking across the street, it's like a two-lane road and cars keep keep stopping as he walks through, but then there's like a point where two cars going up is a direction stop in the same lanes, like that would have been a head-on collision that made Andrew so mad it made him very angry well, yeah, but that's not like a, that's like an adult joke.
00:06:19.940 --> 00:06:29.473
I mean, that was just like a visual gag, I guess you know, yeah, or just a failure of animation.
00:06:30.680 --> 00:06:32.305
They just put the guys in the scene.
00:06:32.305 --> 00:06:36.048
I don't know, maybe my inner child wants to give them the benefit of the doubt.
00:06:36.660 --> 00:06:39.930
Speaking of tropes, I spent the entire movie waiting for them.
00:06:39.930 --> 00:07:01.884
To say that Jinx was Garfield's mom Was too Right, because it's like, oh, they have this dramatic history, there's all this drama, and I'm like just waiting on the end scene where they're up on top of the train for her to be like and I'm your mom, and he'll be like oh no, oh no, I'm Chris Pratt.
00:07:02.687 --> 00:07:08.129
Possibly with his paw covered in spaghetti lasagna sauce, so it looks like it was cut off.
00:07:08.680 --> 00:07:10.226
It didn't happen, it never happened.
00:07:10.970 --> 00:07:13.187
So there's still a mystery.
00:07:13.860 --> 00:07:14.925
I did, I saw what you did.
00:07:14.925 --> 00:07:19.264
There there's still the mystery of Garfield's mom.
00:07:20.088 --> 00:07:20.971
Yeah, that'll be in the sequel.
00:07:20.971 --> 00:07:24.160
I don't think they wanted to touch on cat procreation.
00:07:24.319 --> 00:07:27.310
in this it was again very kid oriented.
00:07:27.720 --> 00:07:35.999
They had a father who was trying to provide for his son when they were starving and he had to leave his, abandon, his son, to find food.
00:07:35.999 --> 00:07:40.848
I mean, that's not exactly the happy go lucky part of the movie.
00:07:41.439 --> 00:07:48.250
Somehow, I think parents I mean Bambi got Bambi's mom gets shot in the first like 10 minutes of the movie.
00:07:48.180 --> 00:07:49.968
Somehow I think parents I mean bambi got bambi's mom gets shot in the first like 10 minutes of the movie.
00:07:49.968 --> 00:08:01.504
Somehow I think parents are okay with the child abandonment, more so than cat on cat sex in the movie just show it I'm just saying, you know, I think all they had to say was that that was the mom.
00:08:01.564 --> 00:08:03.528
They didn't have to like what the hell?
00:08:06.300 --> 00:08:11.985
giant sensor bar across the screen so I was just getting it ready for Nana Rogers and Mike.
00:08:12.005 --> 00:08:22.158
That's all you guys are ridiculous his mom's 12 nipples oh wow, nana.
00:08:22.199 --> 00:08:27.189
Rogers definitely taking him to see that look at him.
00:08:27.480 --> 00:08:28.646
There's 12 boobies.
00:08:28.646 --> 00:08:31.362
Oh man, how I mean.
00:08:31.362 --> 00:08:37.990
I know this was our first episode, but how did we not talk about Nana Rogers and the three boobed woman in Total Recall?
00:08:39.589 --> 00:08:42.062
should have came around, then we should, we should reboot that episode.
00:08:42.706 --> 00:08:47.826
I think that was before, before the bit became legend wasn't even here yet.
00:08:48.248 --> 00:08:49.951
I mean, the bit came from titanic.
00:08:50.010 --> 00:08:53.219
So, yeah, okay, so, uh.
00:08:53.219 --> 00:09:05.253
The other thing I want to talk to you guys about, though, as long as we're deep in the nana, rogers slash, garfield slash, whatever's happening here story, I want to talk a little bit on the central conflict, the.
00:09:05.253 --> 00:09:35.770
You know the plot, as it's clearly the biggest difference, as in, you know, most reboots actually, um, and I think the interesting thing here is that we're taking, you know, the entire width of the of the garfield franchise, both the newspaper syndication, the cartoon from the 80s and 90s, the bill murray movie, the bill murray sequel, the, or squeakwell, if you will, um, wait, that wasn't that, uh but what do you think?
00:09:38.820 --> 00:09:44.302
about the plot choices, I mean, and you would talk about this really for both movies, because the first one was kind of a buddy movie.
00:09:44.302 --> 00:09:51.280
Second one was kind of like the kid finding a strange daddy, but not really as strange, like Mike said, you know.
00:09:51.280 --> 00:09:53.062
So I'm curious.
00:09:53.062 --> 00:10:10.888
You know the first movie dealt with, you know, horny John picking up Odie, and then Odie is a tale as old as time, with the father and son you reuniting and finding out that he really was scratching a tree the whole time.
00:10:10.888 --> 00:10:13.312
What do you guys think?
00:10:14.662 --> 00:10:29.163
uh, you know, the original one I think is actually better plot wise, like I mean him, and like it was basically an odie garfield movie, which I think makes a lot more sense than, but I think you know, as a kid's movie.
00:10:29.163 --> 00:10:35.844
The new one had a better execution because I mean, let's be real here, this movie was not for us.
00:10:35.844 --> 00:10:37.710
The new one, this was for our kids.
00:10:39.841 --> 00:11:01.864
I'm saying if we liked or not doesn't matter, because it was not for us although sitting next to a six and a half year old just cackling the entire time, especially when he is like ping-ponging back and forth, like over the train, like you mean the worst scene in the movie but there's yeah okay, but like this is.
00:11:02.746 --> 00:11:30.567
I know I am the cynical old man in all things, but you are absolutely the cynical old man when it comes to animation and I feel like maybe your perception of the experience of watching this movie with your child is skewed by that you know limited crotchetiness of you because it is like there's something fun about watching a kid's movie with the kids that it's targeting, like it's just like it.
00:11:30.567 --> 00:11:48.514
It's like that episode, it's like that episode of of of bluey where, like they're trying to find uh coco in the pharmacy and at the very end, like all the kids are dancing on the screen and the bandit looks up and he's like kind of like just like smiles a little bit and kind of starts like loosely dancing with him.
00:11:48.533 --> 00:12:05.200
It's like when the kids are having fun, it brings out the fun for you I thought you were gonna say with the uh, the one where they're at the movie theater and he's like, oh man, they're songs that is also the one that I think of when I think of andrew at a kid's movie.
00:12:07.815 --> 00:12:21.202
Oh the singing that was what I said when we went to see wonka and I sat down and I opened right away with a song and I was like you mean when you went to see wonka with jake and didn't invite me and we cuddled in the front seat.
00:12:21.202 --> 00:12:21.706
He actually said to me today.
00:12:21.706 --> 00:12:22.581
He said something about when he went to go see wonka.
00:12:22.581 --> 00:12:23.115
I was like you didn't see that.
00:12:23.105 --> 00:12:24.082
Oh wait, you did see that me, and we cuddled in the front seat.
00:12:24.082 --> 00:12:24.566
He actually said to me today.
00:12:24.566 --> 00:12:25.809
He said something about when he went to go see wonka.
00:12:25.809 --> 00:12:27.312
I was like you didn't see that.
00:12:27.412 --> 00:12:57.187
Oh wait, you did see that the thing that stands out for me is that I think, like there's so much of like who garfield is as a character from like the comic and from the cartoon, and even you know bill murray playing garfield that, like chris pratt has has too much pep yeah, garfield, I agree, he's he's too, he's too playful and I and I, like I I know I said this in discord, but like, for the sake of you know the people actually listening.
00:12:57.248 --> 00:13:15.240
Now I'll say like I feel like if you took this exact movie, like the new one changed nothing except replace Chris Pratt with Nick Offerman and it's immediately better.
00:13:15.240 --> 00:13:26.332
Because I feel like Ron Swanson, energy for Garfield is way better than Andy Duarte.
00:13:26.332 --> 00:13:28.775
Yeah, tell me, I'm wrong.
00:13:29.520 --> 00:13:33.168
I completely agree when you said that I was like that would have been perfect.
00:13:34.179 --> 00:13:39.346
So yeah, and I don't disagree with that, I think it would have been.
00:13:39.346 --> 00:13:44.225
It would have definitely fit the character of what you think of when you think of Garfield you know.
00:13:44.225 --> 00:13:45.809
Kind of based on that.
00:13:45.809 --> 00:14:02.312
I mean, the only Garfield I remember is this is the Garfield Friends show where you actually heard his voice, but in that he wasn't as like Ron Swanson deadpan, he was a little, but he wasn't like Andy Dwyer, like Chippy either.
00:14:02.312 --> 00:14:25.966
So like neither casting I I think would fit based on what I remember from that tv show, but that's also taking a very narrow slice of the garfield you know franchise and then using that as something to base on you just have this, like there's like the slacker energy, like lazy energy to him, but I just just, I don't.
00:14:26.729 --> 00:14:28.972
I don't think Chris Pratt captures well.
00:14:30.014 --> 00:14:30.115
No.
00:14:30.259 --> 00:14:41.576
And I would say they should have just done Garfield without Garfield or whatever it's called, and just had the whole movie be John and Garfield and just John responding to Garfield, not actually saying anything.
00:14:43.181 --> 00:14:44.466
Well, it wasn't clear in this.
00:14:44.466 --> 00:14:47.884
Well, I guess it was pretty clear, but it was again.
00:14:47.884 --> 00:14:48.004
Again.
00:14:48.004 --> 00:14:50.152
It was kind of like so is garfield talking to john or not?
00:14:50.152 --> 00:14:53.381
Because garfield's spending credit card information.
00:14:53.381 --> 00:14:58.032
I guess they did in the movie convey that over the phone.
00:14:58.032 --> 00:14:59.601
They just heard the cats meowing.
00:14:59.601 --> 00:15:03.107
So I guess he did just hear garfield meowing.
00:15:03.609 --> 00:15:07.785
But apparently an app exists that you can talk, so why is not everybody doing that?
00:15:08.240 --> 00:15:13.952
Well, didn't Homer Simpson invent an app to figure out how babies were saying that?
00:15:13.972 --> 00:15:20.270
was his brother and we've had this conversation I'm pretty sure the last episode, right.
00:15:23.100 --> 00:15:24.386
Getting it wrong, bringing it back.
00:15:26.961 --> 00:15:30.884
So, I will say one thing I was excited about with this movie, mike.
00:15:31.125 --> 00:15:46.249
There was something I was looking forward to that was uh, hannah waddington and brett goldstein being in it, just because I love ted lasso so much, and I will tell you they did not disappoint in their voice acting it was, it was good.
00:15:46.249 --> 00:15:49.890
I was hoping for some kind of Ted Lasso reference.
00:15:49.890 --> 00:16:05.908
I did appreciate Brett Goldstein making the joke that he was speaking in a British accent for Jinx's sake, but then his Brooklyn accent was terrible, so I'll give him that.
00:16:05.908 --> 00:16:06.890
But yeah, that was fun.
00:16:06.890 --> 00:16:11.208
I also did love I do got to call out to snoop dog showing up in it.
00:16:11.208 --> 00:16:13.212
Yes, that was pretty good.
00:16:13.212 --> 00:16:16.208
Um, I mean, I'll say they were on point with some of that kind of stuff.
00:16:16.208 --> 00:16:20.905
Some of their jokes like snoop dog showing up, and even even samuel jackson playing vic was pretty good.
00:16:21.726 --> 00:16:32.365
I think nicholas holt was a better john than breckin mayor and our uh murder robot has some comments about that later we'll get to.
00:16:32.365 --> 00:16:39.812
I was also, of course, very excited to see steven tablowski in the original bill murray movie.
00:16:39.812 --> 00:16:43.943
I mean, talk about, you know we had hannah and brett from ted lasso.
00:16:43.943 --> 00:16:47.052
Well, we had had Steven and Bill from Groundhog's Day.
00:16:47.052 --> 00:16:51.371
So I do like seeing these groupings together together.
00:16:52.041 --> 00:16:55.684
Should have just had that on rebooted Groundhog's Day and.
00:17:00.767 --> 00:17:03.552
I mean it can't be any worse than Palm Springs, right?
00:17:04.319 --> 00:17:07.429
Hey, Palm Springs at least had looping in it yeah.
00:17:08.290 --> 00:17:08.592
All right.
00:17:08.592 --> 00:17:14.173
Well, it's a central, central conflict of Groundhog's Day is, of course, he hates Mondays.
00:17:14.173 --> 00:17:18.050
They hate the hatred for Ned Ryerson.
00:17:18.050 --> 00:17:20.227
So that's true.
00:17:20.881 --> 00:17:22.125
So I guess, antagonist.
00:17:22.125 --> 00:17:28.808
The 2004 Garfield movie, then is the reboot of Groundhog's Day.
00:17:28.808 --> 00:17:31.208
There you go, all right.
00:17:31.208 --> 00:18:01.919
Well, let's finalize this year with our points of nostalgia and let's get cracking on Garfield here, and let's just people the Garfield checklist for me hates mondays no, okay, yeah, say yes oh yes, I don't know what you want from me all right when I ask you for the garfield checklist, just be like yep, and then make a check noise when I okay, mark.
00:18:01.919 --> 00:18:06.243
So, jess, let's go ahead and get that Garfield checklist out.
00:18:06.924 --> 00:18:08.067
All right, got it right here.
00:18:08.067 --> 00:18:09.208
Yeah, let's do this.
00:18:09.848 --> 00:18:10.630
He hated Mondays.
00:18:10.630 --> 00:18:11.651
Check.
00:18:11.651 --> 00:18:13.319
He loved food.
00:18:13.319 --> 00:18:14.644
Check.
00:18:14.644 --> 00:18:16.539
He loved lasagna.
00:18:16.539 --> 00:18:20.000
Checkeroonie, he was lazy AF.
00:18:20.000 --> 00:18:24.684
Check, he was a dick to Odie Checkeroonie.
00:18:24.684 --> 00:18:29.323
And I don't understand the point of the cartoon check.
00:18:29.323 --> 00:18:32.936
All right, how about you guys?
00:18:32.936 --> 00:18:39.419
Did this movie check those proverbial garfield itches of yours, and if so, you should probably get that looked at.
00:18:39.419 --> 00:18:41.586
Um, but did they?
00:18:41.586 --> 00:18:59.076
Did you feel like they missed an opportunity to include any of like the characters from US Acres, especially given that they were on a farm, ass farm should have even been background characters exactly I that blew my mind that like none of the characters showed up?
00:19:00.101 --> 00:19:01.398
it's not entirely true.
00:19:01.398 --> 00:19:03.422
None of them showed up.
00:19:06.163 --> 00:19:11.684
I was gonna say normal, but that was like two seconds and he didn't even say anything and I was very disappointed it doesn't matter, it counts.
00:19:11.726 --> 00:19:16.443
That was absolutely, that was 100% Nermal and it was well done.
00:19:17.035 --> 00:19:20.281
And Nermal was awful in the Bill Murray one too.
00:19:21.335 --> 00:19:22.721
He was a real cat.
00:19:22.835 --> 00:19:28.242
Cute, sweet, nermal, like in the cartoons slash comics.
00:19:28.564 --> 00:19:47.972
I was very upset that was also weird because garfield was the only one animated, so he had all these other animals who just did the homeward bound, like talking, or the the dr doolittle, like lips moving on an animal thing, and it was very weird and the cgi was so bad with garfield.
00:19:47.993 --> 00:19:54.354
Anytime someone had to hold garfield you could see like the fur going through their arms and stuff.
00:19:54.354 --> 00:20:00.490
Really weird and like there was just so much gap between, like the arms and garfield.
00:20:00.530 --> 00:20:12.528
It was so weird, it was so bad was it better or worse than the so clearly weightless Grogu in the early episodes of Mandalorian?
00:20:13.309 --> 00:20:14.151
I don't remember that.
00:20:15.836 --> 00:20:16.619
But he was a prop.
00:20:17.035 --> 00:20:20.038
Jess says I will not, I do not remember that and I will not remember that.
00:20:20.038 --> 00:20:21.721
How dare you.
00:20:22.502 --> 00:20:23.244
But Mike he was.
00:20:23.244 --> 00:20:24.307
I do not understand the question.
00:20:24.375 --> 00:20:25.319
I will not respond to it.
00:20:26.817 --> 00:20:29.768
In those episodes he was a question I will not respond to it.
00:20:29.867 --> 00:20:31.071
In those episodes he was a prop.
00:20:31.071 --> 00:20:41.596
That was the same kind of energy where it's like it calls attention to the production of it when you can see those edges.
00:20:41.596 --> 00:20:46.123
It's like the obvious green screen on the ABC drama and it just immediately pulls you out of that.
00:20:46.123 --> 00:20:55.941
Like obvious green screen on the you know, you know ABC drama and like it's just like immediately pulls you out of that like imaginary world when you're like, yeah, I can see how the sauce is made.
00:20:57.154 --> 00:21:09.987
So I will say, as far as points of nostalgia, that I think this new film was made based on just the things that Andrew listed in the checklist.
00:21:09.987 --> 00:21:13.682
It was like I've never actually seen Garfield.
00:21:13.682 --> 00:21:21.521
But I'm going to give you a checklist and he's a tabby cat and that's what you have to go on and that's how they made.
00:21:21.521 --> 00:21:40.347
And they just set out to make like a fun kids cartoon but not really like match the energy of garfield yeah, which in that regard they succeeded at that mission, I think right, and I think the reason for that, though, is because they geared it only towards our children and not towards us at all.
00:21:40.535 --> 00:21:44.767
Really, there isn't really a nostalgia to be had, right?
00:21:44.767 --> 00:21:46.372
I mean, they know that.
00:21:46.372 --> 00:21:53.996
They know garfield, that he was a plush that's stuck on the side of a window, they know he loves lasagna and they know he's orange and a cat and he's lazy and hates mondays.
00:21:53.996 --> 00:22:09.755
That's cultural osmosis, right, but anything beyond that there, anything like from garfield and friends, or from the old sunday morning cartoon strips or whatever the newspaper, our kids don't know that, nor will they ever know that, or whatever.
00:22:09.755 --> 00:22:15.124
So to them they don't there's no nostalgia for them to have.
00:22:15.655 --> 00:22:18.124
We'd love to know what you guys think about this.
00:22:18.124 --> 00:22:22.460
You know what was your points of nostalgia, what is things that you guys thought about?
00:22:22.460 --> 00:22:24.826
The central conflict, or did you even watch the movie?
00:22:24.826 --> 00:22:30.162
I mean, I'm guessing for a lot of our listeners you didn't, but thank you for listening to this episode anyways.
00:22:30.162 --> 00:22:39.641
I know that a lot of times, people are not necessarily listening episodes they haven't seen, but we try, our, we're trying to add the summaries enough content that it's at least still interesting.
00:22:39.641 --> 00:22:40.943
So let us know.
00:22:40.943 --> 00:22:47.363
Uh, you can hit us up on our uh social media, so check the description.
00:22:47.363 --> 00:22:50.928
Uh, hit us up on our social media, so check the description.
00:22:50.928 --> 00:22:53.271
Hit us up on our social media thingies.
00:22:53.271 --> 00:22:58.936
There I'm clearly the old one in the group because that's what I call social media.
00:22:58.936 --> 00:23:00.439
So one area where both films captured.
00:23:01.400 --> 00:23:04.702
One of our you know both films captured.
00:23:04.702 --> 00:23:19.689
One of our you know big items of pop culture is just the idea of the Garfield plush, like with the suction cups, like being splayed on on ours across the land.
00:23:19.689 --> 00:23:31.717
And so in both films Garfield bites it and he smacks into into a car windshield and he's all splayed out um, and it's just.
00:23:31.717 --> 00:23:33.440
It's just a fun little thing, you know.
00:23:33.440 --> 00:23:50.851
It's like, uh, it's Liz's truck in uh in the 2004, because Liz is in in that one played by Jennifer Love Hewitt, which fun piece of trivia was one of my high school pop culture celebrity crushes.
00:23:50.851 --> 00:23:58.950
So I was watching this movie going oh, like, but that couldn't, even even that couldn't keep me interested in watching this movie.
00:23:58.950 --> 00:24:02.301
I fell asleep twice, actually Were you a big Ghost Whisperer fan.
00:24:04.577 --> 00:24:10.689
No, but Can't Hardly Wait is like one of those movies where it's just like oh yeah, well, that's a movie.
00:24:10.795 --> 00:24:13.165
I thought you were saying you couldn't hardly wait to see Ghost Whisperer.
00:24:13.816 --> 00:24:15.784
No, it's that movie.
00:24:16.434 --> 00:24:20.644
Did you fall asleep because Jennifer Love Hewitt was in it and you were dreaming about her?
00:24:20.884 --> 00:24:22.508
It was just that High school Rob.
00:24:22.508 --> 00:24:24.715
It was just that boring.
00:24:24.715 --> 00:24:34.284
It was just a very slowly paced movie, which is weird for an hour and 20 minute movie to be slowly paced.
00:24:34.604 --> 00:24:39.587
I feel like that's like in character for Garfield, though Just very slowly paced, I guess.
00:24:40.008 --> 00:24:45.152
I can't, but you bring that up, rob, we didn't mention that, but I cannot believe this movie didn't even hit a cool 90.
00:24:47.674 --> 00:24:48.846
And it couldn't even hold you.
00:24:48.846 --> 00:24:53.057
It could not hold me, it did not hold me tender like.
00:24:53.077 --> 00:25:02.263
Jennifer Love Hewitt so anyway, there's those points of nostalgia.
00:25:02.263 --> 00:25:22.186
I guess, if we can go back to the points of nostalgia as well, like this idea of like Garfield being the plush which of all of the animated or comic strip characters he is the most plush like, so I guess he that really aligns for a physical merchandise for him to be a little plushy.
00:25:22.186 --> 00:25:30.779
But both times we are two for two on hitting cars and being flattened, so great job.
00:25:31.276 --> 00:25:35.067
You know, what I find interesting is that that even existed.
00:25:35.067 --> 00:25:41.500
The suction cup, plushie Garfield Like why, why was that a thing?
00:25:41.500 --> 00:25:41.996
It's like.
00:25:41.996 --> 00:25:45.026
It's like the Calvin peeing on something.
00:25:45.535 --> 00:25:47.436
I think it was slightly different.
00:25:47.436 --> 00:25:49.038
What is it with cartoons being on cars?
00:25:49.218 --> 00:25:49.719
in the 90s.
00:25:49.719 --> 00:25:50.940
I don't know Calvin peeing on something.
00:25:50.940 --> 00:25:52.300
I think they're slightly different.
00:25:52.300 --> 00:25:52.980
What?
00:25:53.082 --> 00:25:53.882
is it with cartoons?
00:25:53.902 --> 00:25:54.583
being on cars in the 90s.
00:25:54.643 --> 00:26:01.388
I don't know Also, garfield's like the laziest character, and so why would he be like hanging from a window?
00:26:01.388 --> 00:26:05.291
He'd be like no, I'm at home sleeping in bed, dreaming of lasagna.
00:26:08.136 --> 00:26:11.124
Maybe Beetle Bailey's on something.
00:26:11.124 --> 00:26:17.018
Do you guys remember the sunday cartoons where you had garfield, you had foxtrot, beetle bailey, hi lois?
00:26:17.018 --> 00:26:18.122
You know all these things.
00:26:18.122 --> 00:26:32.528
Family circus, family circus, with the little hash marks going around following the kids there's always like a prince caspian or something, or it was like this super detailed one with like novel, like panels, and you never read it.
00:26:32.528 --> 00:26:37.125
You're like that's too many words for a cartoon and I just, you just skip it.
00:26:37.205 --> 00:26:50.153
You're like no, it's like a, like a corn of thorns and roses or something I don't know um guitar.
00:26:51.558 --> 00:26:54.773
It was the high art of the Sunday news clippings.
00:26:55.115 --> 00:27:00.279
I just remember those ones were there and I never like read them because there were too much words.
00:27:01.117 --> 00:27:04.782
I don't remember that at all well listeners.
00:27:04.843 --> 00:27:13.038
If you know what I'm talking about, write it in to our social media that Rob will post yes, I'm gonna, if I can find it.
00:27:13.721 --> 00:27:16.721
Yeah, wait social media.
00:27:16.781 --> 00:27:17.664
It's already posted.
00:27:18.538 --> 00:27:27.961
That's kind of how social media works we'll go find it when Andrew was asking about the run length of the new one he goes is it a cool 90?
00:27:27.961 --> 00:27:30.940
And I said it's actually 104.
00:27:30.940 --> 00:27:33.465
I said it's 140.
00:27:33.465 --> 00:27:36.401
It's like this is 140 minutes.
00:27:36.401 --> 00:27:42.000
I was like no, it's an hour, it's so long.
00:27:42.662 --> 00:27:44.842
I'm like so say cool 100 next time.
00:27:44.842 --> 00:27:50.678
Yeah, shout out.
00:27:50.678 --> 00:27:56.280
Shout out to back in the day when you'd read the back of the VHS cover to see how long the runtime was.
00:27:56.280 --> 00:27:58.006
That's right.
00:27:58.435 --> 00:28:01.259
My kids were convinced that the movie was five and a half hours.
00:28:01.259 --> 00:28:04.542
When we walked out of it they said I can't believe it's still light out.
00:28:04.542 --> 00:28:06.682
We were in there for five and a half hours.
00:28:06.682 --> 00:28:07.819
I was like like, well, not quite.
00:28:09.683 --> 00:28:18.634
Garfield extended edition yeah, directed by Peter Jackson yes yeah, okay.
00:28:18.836 --> 00:28:23.858
So the first thing is when he gets left behind in that little like waste container at the beginning of the movie.
00:28:23.858 --> 00:28:25.544
There's a number on there.
00:28:25.544 --> 00:28:26.580
The number on there is the date of the movie.
00:28:26.580 --> 00:28:40.383
There's a number on there, um, and the number on there is the date of the very first garfield comic strip that was a nifty little subtle easter egg like the, like that pixar number that I can't remember what the actual number is 42.
00:28:40.383 --> 00:28:44.679
So it's not 42, I know that but that's.
00:28:44.740 --> 00:28:47.646
That's the answer to all life's questions that's a different number.
00:28:49.080 --> 00:28:57.602
And then the other thing that I thought was interesting was the 2004 movie with Mike, what's the number?
00:28:57.602 --> 00:29:00.580
Mike refuses to tell you the number.
00:29:00.580 --> 00:29:06.098
It didn't say the number it's not right there but it's there.
00:29:06.119 --> 00:29:15.590
It's the number but I'm not gonna tell you you're gonna have to go google it everyone you can guess the month.
00:29:15.590 --> 00:29:16.855
I gave you 12 chances.
00:29:16.855 --> 00:29:25.721
I'll give you 30 chances for the date, the year, about 6,000 you think Garfield could have existed 6,000 years ago?
00:29:25.721 --> 00:29:29.049
Yeah, they were drawing cats and porn back then.
00:29:29.556 --> 00:29:38.569
I want to say that there's probably a comic strip out there where Garfield was in old ancient Egyptian pharaoh garb.
00:29:38.569 --> 00:29:46.627
For some reason I have this old memory stuck in here of them dressed up like pharaohs.
00:29:46.627 --> 00:29:54.564
That might have been from the cartoon, actually probably probably probably all right anyway, all right.
00:29:54.875 --> 00:30:09.261
6 1978 yeah um yeah, all right, mike, go ahead, give me another trivia yeah, I think we're gonna just keep it.
00:30:09.442 --> 00:30:31.124
Let's just keep it um, yeah, so anyway, uh, the other piece of uh little tidbit here, um, that I will give you all of the information for, um, was that, uh, the 2004 movie with bill murray marks the first time that garfield uh like, talked, like, truly talked, like with his mouth moving on the screen.
00:30:31.124 --> 00:30:36.201
Like in most other cases, like in the comic strip, it was always like thought bubbles in the old cartoon.
00:30:36.201 --> 00:30:38.286
I know like, uh like.
00:30:38.286 --> 00:30:40.297
I've heard people refer to it as voiceover.
00:30:40.297 --> 00:30:43.169
I don't really feel like it was like true voiceover.
00:30:43.169 --> 00:30:55.880
It was almost like telekinetic communication because there was like dialogue that he was having with people, but his mouth didn't move right him and Odie always seemed to interact like know what each other were saying.
00:30:57.199 --> 00:31:05.196
Odie still just like licked and barked, but like knew what Garfield was saying to him but would do it like in response to the things that Garfield was saying.
00:31:05.217 --> 00:31:07.744
So it was like this weird, like telepathic, you know.
00:31:10.821 --> 00:31:12.425
It's very C3PO and R2D2.
00:31:12.914 --> 00:31:14.904
Like how Snowy responds to Tintin.
00:31:16.412 --> 00:31:21.757
Something like that, Andrew you gotta have more broad pop culture references.
00:31:21.857 --> 00:31:28.943
Broad like the breadth of Europe, and we are in America.
00:31:28.943 --> 00:31:41.901
America Is Tintin more popular than the French president Is Tintin the dog I'm going to cut you off, mike, wait, listen, this is America.
00:31:42.536 --> 00:31:44.320
I'm thinking of Mr Peabody and Sherman.
00:31:46.185 --> 00:31:47.284
Yes, that's Mr Peabody and Sherman.
00:31:47.284 --> 00:31:48.094
Yes, that's Mr Peabody and Sherman.
00:31:48.094 --> 00:31:54.778
I just always assumed in the cartoon that they had the voiceover, but the lips didn't move.
00:31:54.778 --> 00:32:04.326
Just because that's how lazy Garfield was, like he just wouldn't even open his lips to talk, he just kind of minded because he couldn't take it.
00:32:04.595 --> 00:32:14.811
Because I remember sometimes they did understand Garfield, but sometimes they didn't, was weird yeah, well, it's like you were in the panels animals show
00:32:15.596 --> 00:32:29.222
like I have memories of people like understand garfield, but other times they didn't understand him you're talking about like gags, like playing on the laziness and of garfield, and I think like that was one of the other things in the new movie.
00:32:29.222 --> 00:32:31.180
That was like a joke that I thought.
00:32:31.180 --> 00:32:46.082
That I thought was funny and I think kind of went mostly over my kid's head, was when they're climbing into that vent and like Vic, just like shimmies right up on in there and is like cruising on down the vent and Garfield gets stuck there's, like well, how did you get in here?
00:32:46.082 --> 00:32:56.318
Like you're small, you're bigger than I am, am I?
00:32:56.318 --> 00:32:57.342
It was just like a very subtle like play on.
00:32:57.342 --> 00:32:58.747
You know, garfield as the lazy fat cat that I thought was just.
00:32:58.767 --> 00:33:16.362
I don't know, I laughed at that, but you know, sometimes I'm a child, so in the movie you can see Garfield going across like the street and he goes past the music store that says Lorenzo's music, which is funny because the original voice actor for Garfield going across like the street and he goes past the music store that says Lorenzo's music, which is funny because the original voice actor for Garfield was named Lorenzo music not funny, but more cool his name.
00:33:16.615 --> 00:33:27.758
His last name was music apparently yeah, that tripped me up like five times when I was reading the trivia and writing the trivia, because I saw somewhere else his name was Lorenzo music and I was like wait, I thought that was the name of the company.
00:33:27.758 --> 00:33:32.101
Or when I was reading the trivia and writing the trivia, because I saw somewhere else his name was Lorenzo Music and I was like wait, I thought that was the name of the company or something.
00:33:32.101 --> 00:33:36.643
I was very confused, but no, apparently his name was Lorenzo, or is Lorenzo Music?
00:33:37.659 --> 00:33:39.921
his middle name must be like Danger or something.
00:33:41.308 --> 00:33:41.653
Danger.
00:33:42.738 --> 00:33:44.845
Lorenzo Danger Music yeah.
00:33:46.800 --> 00:33:50.617
I'd want to hang out with a dude named lorenzo danger music personally, like that feels.
00:33:50.617 --> 00:33:51.740
What do you want to know?
00:33:53.525 --> 00:33:53.704
um.
00:33:53.704 --> 00:33:57.113
So in hindsight, it's 2020.
00:33:57.113 --> 00:34:13.628
Bill murray said that he really wishes he would have said the line in the original movie dogs and cats living together mass hysteria, which is a famous line from Ghostbusters, but he did not think of it until after he had already been finished recording his lines.
00:34:14.815 --> 00:34:22.126
How did no one else On that set say something to him like, hey, there's that one line.
00:34:22.126 --> 00:34:24.228
He was one of your most famous.
00:34:25.532 --> 00:34:26.733
Oh yeah, he would have been recording.
00:34:26.733 --> 00:34:26.175
He was on set, he was recording, he would have been recording.
00:34:26.175 --> 00:34:33.036
Well, no, no, no, he recorded from a boat while he was filming the Life Aquatic.
00:34:33.538 --> 00:34:37.184
That's amazing yeah.
00:34:37.804 --> 00:34:38.585
Probably.
00:34:40.509 --> 00:35:01.963
Which I mean that's pretty amazing acting to be to portray your voice that lazy while on a stimulant, you know, I think I say well on a boat he's probably like sitting there in a lawn chair not a lawn chair like in a deck chair with a cocktail in his hand.
00:35:03.219 --> 00:35:07.224
Cocktail in one hand, mike in the other he's like I'm just riding the wave.
00:35:07.556 --> 00:35:28.822
Mike in the middle of the air listen, they're soft and comforting I think, I think she needs over over the head if only there was a pair of over the head headphones that belonged to her these don't belong to her.
00:35:28.942 --> 00:35:34.614
My dad put her name on them because she took them to school, because she broke the ones I gave her that were actually very expensive.
00:35:34.614 --> 00:35:39.181
Pebble Beach or whatever the fuck those are called.
00:35:39.181 --> 00:35:46.161
Turtle Beach, turtle Beach, yeah, your mom beach.
00:35:46.161 --> 00:35:53.097
Bum, bum, bum bum, as they say.
00:35:53.097 --> 00:35:54.519
Opinions are like anchovies.
00:35:54.519 --> 00:36:02.887
You only like them if you're Italian or a crazy person, mike our resident Italian.
00:36:02.907 --> 00:36:03.210
You're up first.
00:36:03.210 --> 00:36:04.612
Ooh, all right.
00:36:04.612 --> 00:36:05.715
Yeah, I'm not going to lie.
00:36:05.715 --> 00:36:07.077
I liked the new movie.
00:36:07.538 --> 00:36:18.677
I liked it, I enjoyed it, I had fun, like you, know, am I glad that I brought my kids to go see it and didn't go see it by myself?
00:36:18.677 --> 00:36:19.280
Yeah, absolutely.
00:36:19.280 --> 00:36:27.177
It would have been weird if an you know late 30s man was sitting in this theater by himself watching what is decidedly a kid's movie.
00:36:27.177 --> 00:36:32.371
Um, but I, I liked it and I would, you know, I would watch it.
00:36:32.371 --> 00:36:33.034
You know, I don't.
00:36:33.034 --> 00:36:34.657
I don't feel like I wasted my money on it.
00:36:34.657 --> 00:36:35.800
I'm happy with it.
00:36:36.952 --> 00:36:43.556
I'd say, if you were going to do that, you should have worn a Garfield onesie you just go full on weirdo.
00:36:43.577 --> 00:36:44.420
That would have been worse.
00:36:44.420 --> 00:36:45.679
That would have been way worse.
00:36:46.391 --> 00:36:51.717
He's got to lean into the weirdo, just go all the way in to the weirdo.
00:36:52.251 --> 00:36:55.896
I don't think I, out of all of us here, I don't think I need to lean into the weirdo.
00:36:55.896 --> 00:36:56.177
Listen, I don't think.
00:36:56.177 --> 00:36:56.570
I don't think I have any.
00:36:56.570 --> 00:36:58.425
Out of all of us here, I don't think I need to lean into the weirdo any more than I already have.
00:36:58.425 --> 00:37:01.806
I feel like the world can only handle so much of that.
00:37:01.806 --> 00:37:23.039
But yeah, I know, and then, like the Bill Murray one, I feel like Bill Murray is such like a perfect choice for the Garfield character, like it's just like it's a shame that like the rest of the movie wasn't like up to par with that perfection, like that's, that's kind of.
00:37:23.059 --> 00:37:27.235
that's kind of where I'm at I see we're using the word perfection pretty loosey-goosey here.
00:37:27.797 --> 00:37:30.161
Well, bill murray is a perfect cast for garfield.
00:37:30.161 --> 00:37:32.954
Like casting wise bill murray is perfect.
00:37:35.561 --> 00:37:39.260
All right, ok, rob, give me your opinions and rating.
00:37:40.210 --> 00:37:42.699
You know I'm going to agree with Mike.
00:37:42.699 --> 00:37:47.202
I think that Bill Murray was a perfect casting for the voice of Garfield.
00:37:47.202 --> 00:38:02.501
It's it's very telling that he recorded all of his dialogue on a boat and was nowhere near the production of the actual movie, because I'm sure he would have been like, wow, I'm connected to a really boring movie.
00:38:02.501 --> 00:38:09.322
I fell asleep twice trying to watch this thing and it was an hour and 20 minutes.
00:38:09.322 --> 00:38:15.280
So that's kind of I would say kind of a feat in itself.
00:38:15.280 --> 00:38:21.472
Um, didn't enjoy it, it was very boring.
00:38:21.472 --> 00:38:26.880
Uh, and the 2024 movie I got to watch it with my kids and they really enjoyed it.
00:38:26.880 --> 00:38:30.405
I enjoyed it for the fun time that it was.
00:38:30.405 --> 00:38:36.228
I I wouldn't say it was necessarily a Garfield movie.
00:38:36.228 --> 00:38:40.380
Um, there were parts of it that paid homage to Garfield and that was kind of it.
00:38:40.380 --> 00:38:45.641
So I wouldn't say I enjoyed either of them really.
00:38:45.641 --> 00:38:54.978
I'll give the original to Jennifer Love Hewitt and I'll give the remake.
00:38:54.978 --> 00:38:57.603
Super Mario Brothers.
00:38:57.603 --> 00:38:59.710
One, just one.
00:38:59.710 --> 00:39:00.572
Super Mario Brother.
00:39:00.572 --> 00:39:01.836
There you go.
00:39:02.739 --> 00:39:03.342
Which one?
00:39:05.193 --> 00:39:07.096
You only get one, and I'm not going to tell you which one.
00:39:07.096 --> 00:39:11.224
It is Luigi, it's Luigi, it's always Luigi.
00:39:11.969 --> 00:39:12.572
Alright, jess.
00:39:12.572 --> 00:39:15.300
What do you think of this movie?
00:39:16.090 --> 00:39:20.021
Both of those movies had a lot of problems, but for very different reasons.
00:39:20.021 --> 00:39:26.278
Like did you notice at the like when they're when they're running through the terminal at the train station?
00:39:26.278 --> 00:39:28.202
And she's just like holding?
00:39:28.202 --> 00:39:34.139
She's holding John's hand in one hand Jennifer Love Hewitt is and she's holding her jacket in the other.
00:39:34.139 --> 00:39:35.989
Like why did you bring your jacket?
00:39:35.989 --> 00:39:38.851
Why are you running around with it in your hand?
00:39:38.851 --> 00:39:40.992
And she had it the whole time until they left.
00:39:40.992 --> 00:39:42.471
Like why are you just?
00:39:42.471 --> 00:39:43.876
Why don't you leave it in the car?
00:39:44.695 --> 00:39:49.373
like why it's called fashion sweetie no, you don't hold a jacket for fashion.
00:39:49.373 --> 00:39:57.442
She had it like over her, like she had a jacket like through the whole movie, like she had it over her shoulders in that Richie McGee way that people do.
00:39:57.442 --> 00:39:59.134
But anyway, moving on, that was weird.
00:39:59.134 --> 00:40:06.737
And then in the remake he ordered 100 drones of pizza for zero reason.
00:40:06.737 --> 00:40:09.137
He didn't do anything with those 100 drones.
00:40:09.137 --> 00:40:21.155
They literally could have just gotten three, jumped on them and gone away to safety, but instead he was jumping across them to like John will never recover from this.
00:40:21.969 --> 00:40:23.217
Why didn't they just jump on them?
00:40:24.733 --> 00:40:26.650
Why didn't they just jump on them and fly away?
00:40:26.871 --> 00:40:27.152
on them.
00:40:27.152 --> 00:40:28.115
What was the point?
00:40:28.115 --> 00:40:29.092
What was the reason?
00:40:29.092 --> 00:40:34.076
There was no reason, especially like it didn't do Having a hundred of them did nothing.
00:40:34.076 --> 00:40:34.757
What was?
00:40:34.777 --> 00:40:40.748
the point Like that was the drama yeah.
00:40:40.768 --> 00:40:53.693
So they were both pretty terrible, but so I'm gonna say the better one was the 1988 television series yeah, I will actually agree with that.
00:40:53.773 --> 00:40:58.150
Just the better one was the 1988 television series, because that's the one I watched.
00:40:58.150 --> 00:41:01.336
Um, I did not enjoy either movie.
00:41:01.336 --> 00:41:25.831
Uh, I will just say it was difficult to watch them and I, I don't know, and here's the thing have not been, I'm not a big Garfield fan in general, like I was never, like that was never a cartoon strip I sought out, uh, on Sunday, more likes.
00:41:25.831 --> 00:41:29.715
It was no Foxtrot, so to speak, it was no Calvin and Hobbes.
00:41:29.715 --> 00:41:36.818
Um, so I don't have a lot of nostalgia for this property, which I guess makes it a little difficult as well.
00:41:36.818 --> 00:41:43.344
So I think my rating is going to be 12 on the scale.
00:41:43.344 --> 00:41:49.036
So I'll let you guys figure out what that one is, so litter.
00:41:49.036 --> 00:42:05.998
Anyways, I think I will say, of the voices I've heard Play Garfield, I like the one from the 1988.
00:42:06.018 --> 00:42:07.039
TV show the best Lorenzo music.
00:42:07.639 --> 00:42:08.639
Was that Lorenzo music?
00:42:08.659 --> 00:42:11.782
Yeah, so yes we had trivia about it.
00:42:12.804 --> 00:42:14.646
Well, lorenzo, music yeah.
00:42:15.047 --> 00:42:20.550
So His name wasn't even Lorenzo.
00:42:20.550 --> 00:42:21.492
By the way, it was gerald david music.
00:42:21.492 --> 00:42:22.054
There you go, mike.
00:42:22.215 --> 00:42:31.737
I just looked him up but his last name was still music yes yes, oh, kudos to him yeah, did a good job.
00:42:32.018 --> 00:42:33.360
Did a good job getting a last name.
00:42:34.081 --> 00:42:53.166
So you know I always thought like that Norm McDonald sounded a lot like the original voice of Garfield well, the original voice of Garfield was a comic drawn in a newspaper like animated.
00:42:53.246 --> 00:43:03.726
Whatever the first time you heard Garfield's voice, the first time we heard garfield's first time you heard his voice like I always thought norm mcdonald would be a good garfield too so did you know?
00:43:03.786 --> 00:43:08.458
by the way, garfield's first appearance was in a comic strip named john.
00:43:08.458 --> 00:43:11.891
The comic strip was named john and wait.
00:43:11.911 --> 00:43:14.699
Did you first say yawn, no, and then?
00:43:16.893 --> 00:43:29.030
and then nope, he says, he says hi my name is hi there, I'm john arbuckle, I'm a cartoonist and this is my cat, garfield.
00:43:29.030 --> 00:43:35.677
And then a rather scary looking garfield says hi there, I'm garfield, I'm a cat and this is my cartoonist, john.
00:43:35.677 --> 00:43:43.672
And that is where he came into being, but I didn't know that John Arbuckle was a cartoonist.
00:43:43.672 --> 00:43:49.402
Now we do there, you go there, you have it everyone.
00:43:49.402 --> 00:43:53.911
So, robert, you are our king of listeners.
00:43:53.911 --> 00:44:07.364
I am the king.
00:44:07.364 --> 00:44:10.547
What questions do we have today?
00:44:13.050 --> 00:44:14.251
Well, welcome to the kingdom everyone.
00:44:14.251 --> 00:44:19.695
The bounty of horrible takes are upon you and we've already laid waste to them.
00:44:19.695 --> 00:44:41.831
But we have two great comments from listeners, one of which I don't know how to pronounce their name Jairo, jairo, jairo, jairo Our first listener, jairo.
00:44:41.831 --> 00:44:42.150
He comes in in.
00:44:42.150 --> 00:44:43.753
He has a comment, really a question, that he wanted to ask all of us.
00:44:43.753 --> 00:44:47.860
Uh, so we have this too, that we have the 2004 movie with bill murray.
00:44:47.860 --> 00:44:51.391
2024, bill murray is still around.
00:44:51.391 --> 00:44:55.762
Why didn't they just bring back Bill Murray for the reboot?
00:44:55.762 --> 00:45:01.293
It would have been much better than Andy Dwyer, because Chris Pratt is top shit right now.
00:45:01.492 --> 00:45:04.286
I mean, I don't think Bill Murray wanted to do another one.
00:45:04.286 --> 00:45:05.983
He made that pretty clear in Zombieland.
00:45:05.983 --> 00:45:06.951
Yeah, I was just saying.
00:45:06.971 --> 00:45:09.391
I think the Zombieland comment lands that one.
00:45:09.391 --> 00:45:11.239
I'm sorry, Garfield.
00:45:14.670 --> 00:45:18.141
It did get 16% on Rotten Tomatoes yeah.
00:45:20.215 --> 00:45:21.699
I mean it did make a lot of money.
00:45:21.699 --> 00:45:32.998
I mean it's a $50 million budget and they pulled in $203 million globally, which actually to kick that off to answer Hiro's question here by not answering his question.
00:45:35.135 --> 00:45:38.193
The first movie 2004 movie cost 500 million dollars to make.
00:45:38.193 --> 00:45:40.257
This new one cost 60 million.
00:45:40.257 --> 00:45:42.851
No, sorry, cost 50 million dollars to make.
00:45:42.851 --> 00:45:45.059
The new one cost 60 million dollars to make.
00:45:45.059 --> 00:45:55.768
As of the time of this recording, the 2004 gross 75 million in the us and the 2024 gross 78 million in the US and the 2024 grossed $78 million in the US.
00:45:55.768 --> 00:46:03.574
The 2004 did $203 million worldwide and the 2024 did $217 million worldwide.
00:46:03.574 --> 00:46:07.170
So it's very close in numbers I mean within billions, but still.
00:46:07.873 --> 00:46:14.215
It's so weird, but I think the first one had the Bill Murray pull.
00:46:15.318 --> 00:46:18.394
I can't believe they're that close in money though.
00:46:18.394 --> 00:46:23.474
It's just crazy you know 2004 money though.
00:46:23.474 --> 00:46:28.429
That's true, that 2004 money.
00:46:28.429 --> 00:46:33.592
It's always so sneaky when Rob drops that in Rob's like hmm year money, year money.
00:46:33.614 --> 00:46:35.483
20 years ago, year money, year money.
00:46:35.483 --> 00:46:36.025
You remember 20?
00:46:36.045 --> 00:46:36.889
years ago Year money, year money.
00:46:37.813 --> 00:46:39.478
You know who should have voiced Garfield?
00:46:40.831 --> 00:46:41.534
We're still on this.
00:46:42.938 --> 00:46:43.539
I just thought of it.
00:46:44.489 --> 00:46:45.010
The ghost of.
00:46:45.050 --> 00:46:45.251
Norm.
00:46:45.271 --> 00:46:45.793
Macdonald.
00:46:46.855 --> 00:46:48.237
Andrew Laura Dern.
00:46:49.239 --> 00:46:51.423
No, andrew Me, Not you.
00:46:51.423 --> 00:46:51.744
Andrew.
00:46:52.070 --> 00:47:07.907
No, andrew Garfield, andrew Garfield me, not you andrew, no andrew garfield good times um actually the other one that I would have taken.
00:47:07.907 --> 00:47:10.931
I think like it took different kind of energy.
00:47:10.931 --> 00:47:13.255
Um I I still feel like nick offerman.
00:47:13.255 --> 00:47:15.179
Offerman is the best choice.
00:47:16.101 --> 00:47:16.442
I agree.
00:47:17.063 --> 00:47:25.333
But and this is another case of Mike being terrible with acronyms Nick Miller from New Girl would also be a good choice.
00:47:25.333 --> 00:47:31.030
I think Nick Miller from New Girl would make a pretty solid Garfield as well.
00:47:31.934 --> 00:47:33.539
And then Schmidt could have been John.
00:47:36.695 --> 00:47:38.820
The voice of Garfield should have been Ron Perlman.
00:47:38.820 --> 00:47:43.380
Mondays, mondays never change, mr Krabs.
00:47:46.858 --> 00:47:47.559
Do you see what I did there?
00:47:47.559 --> 00:47:48.422
That was intentional.
00:47:50.769 --> 00:47:52.398
Just have Squidward be Garfield.
00:47:52.398 --> 00:47:55.291
Odie be Spongebob, liz be Sandy.
00:47:55.291 --> 00:47:55.713
Odie be Spongebob.
00:47:55.713 --> 00:47:56.215
Liz be Sandy.
00:47:56.449 --> 00:47:58.496
Odie is Patrick and everybody knows it.
00:48:00.280 --> 00:48:00.601
Why.
00:48:03.052 --> 00:48:05.039
Because Patrick's not Patrick.
00:48:05.039 --> 00:48:07.773
Okay.
00:48:07.914 --> 00:48:14.219
You know who would have made it interesting Garfield would have been the crotchety Hugh Laurie.
00:48:17.231 --> 00:48:18.494
American House, hugh Laurie.
00:48:18.876 --> 00:48:24.253
Yeah, yeah, that sounds good, mm-hmm.
00:48:25.512 --> 00:48:33.297
I actually think Andrew, like this Andrew the one next to me on the screen would make, would be a pretty good Garfield energy.
00:48:34.356 --> 00:48:45.141
Moving right along to our second fan-submitted question is actually from Eric, who has been on the show before.
00:48:45.141 --> 00:48:47.797
So shout out to Eric, he's a pretty awesome dude.
00:48:47.797 --> 00:48:51.298
He has a two-part question for all of us.
00:48:51.298 --> 00:49:03.523
So first one what are your opinions on Mondays and describe your ideal lasagna, ooh, so.
00:49:04.954 --> 00:49:10.177
Well, I think the real question when it comes to lasagna is ricotta or cottage cheese.
00:49:10.750 --> 00:49:12.155
Don't you effing dare.
00:49:12.978 --> 00:49:13.119
Ricotta.
00:49:13.119 --> 00:49:13.621
Oh, it's ricotta, yes.
00:49:13.641 --> 00:49:15.949
Yeah, okay, cottage cheese, las it's ricotta.
00:49:15.949 --> 00:49:16.030
Yes.
00:49:16.050 --> 00:49:16.130
Yeah.
00:49:16.909 --> 00:49:18.657
Cottage cheese lasagna is inedible.
00:49:19.750 --> 00:49:25.523
Cottage cheese should not even be in the running as an option for lasagna.
00:49:26.289 --> 00:49:29.340
I didn't know lasagna was good, because I only ever had cottage cheese.
00:49:30.192 --> 00:49:32.378
Don't you dare Andrew, don't you dare.
00:49:32.378 --> 00:49:35.514
No, you're wrong, stop it.
00:49:36.135 --> 00:49:36.297
No.
00:49:36.849 --> 00:49:37.592
Cod cheese.
00:49:37.592 --> 00:49:44.297
Lasagna has its place and it's just fine, cod cheese has its place in the garbage.
00:49:44.871 --> 00:49:50.336
When you go to a church basement potluck and they have cod cheese lasagna, that's plenty fine, uh-uh.
00:49:50.989 --> 00:49:52.356
It's the same people who put raisins in mac and cheese yeah.
00:49:52.356 --> 00:49:53.099
Or make oatmeal raisin cookies.
00:49:53.119 --> 00:49:58.039
Those are delicious, it's the same people who put raisins in mac and cheese, yeah, or like make oatmeal raisin cookies.
00:49:58.577 --> 00:50:01.257
Those are delicious no, they trick you.
00:50:01.257 --> 00:50:05.505
You think that they're chocolate chip cookies, and then there's the raisins and you're disappointed.
00:50:08.583 --> 00:50:09.789
How did cheese lasagna?
00:50:10.938 --> 00:50:13.655
we didn't care about the movies at all, but we are arguing to the death about lasagna.
00:50:13.655 --> 00:50:13.978
Okay, oh, I can't.
00:50:13.978 --> 00:50:15.789
Even we didn't care about the movies at all but we are arguing to the death about lasagna.
00:50:16.170 --> 00:50:18.675
Okay, oh, I can't even.
00:50:19.096 --> 00:50:21.159
Okay, so there's an additional question here.
00:50:21.159 --> 00:50:26.494
The take is on Mondays what?
00:50:26.514 --> 00:50:28.561
is your take on Mondays I like Mondays, that's when we record rebooted.
00:50:29.465 --> 00:50:29.585
Aw.
00:50:29.585 --> 00:50:35.918
That's true, I don't work a typical Monday through Friday job, so I don't really have weekends.
00:50:35.918 --> 00:50:39.233
So Mondays isn't really In my week.
00:50:39.233 --> 00:50:42.858
Sometimes I work, sometimes I don't.
00:50:42.858 --> 00:50:45.063
What's your take?
00:50:45.242 --> 00:50:56.438
on olive garden lasagna I don't think I've ever had olive garden lasagna I always go with soup and salad and the old like olive garden like you, just you gotta.
00:50:56.639 --> 00:51:11.918
You gotta keep it simple at all at a place like olive garden olive garden lasagna just makes me sad, because the pieces have gotten smaller and smaller and smaller as I've gotten older and the price has gone up or I've just gotten bigger and they look smaller, but either way the, the.
00:51:12.099 --> 00:51:18.257
The lasagna point that I want to go back to, though, is that the best lasagna is like all inside pieces.
00:51:18.257 --> 00:51:35.347
There's like I know it's like some people really like the crunchy edges of the pan that have been toasted absolutely hate, with a fiery passion, the crunchy edges of the pan yeah, but mike, somebody's got to eat that.
00:51:35.646 --> 00:51:38.278
Yeah, that's fine, I will agree like that.
00:51:38.860 --> 00:51:40.563
I want all inside pieces.
00:51:40.722 --> 00:51:50.460
I want no crunchy noodle on my lasagna that's why when they, when they have that ass-shaped pan where everything's on the edge, I'm like who is a psychopath who wants that?
00:51:51.074 --> 00:51:52.677
I do for brownies and cake.
00:51:53.099 --> 00:51:53.719
Negative.
00:51:53.719 --> 00:51:54.360
No, middle's the best.
00:51:54.360 --> 00:51:54.561
Yes.
00:52:00.358 --> 00:52:01.583
I never want the crispy edge.
00:52:01.583 --> 00:52:05.072
When you make a pan of cinnamon rolls, you want the center cinnamon roll.
00:52:05.072 --> 00:52:05.373
I'll agree with that.
00:52:05.373 --> 00:52:05.554
You want the goo.
00:52:05.554 --> 00:52:06.423
When you make a pan of cinnamon rolls, you want the center cinnamon roll.
00:52:06.423 --> 00:52:06.590
True, I'll agree with that.
00:52:07.074 --> 00:52:09.695
You want the goo, you want it to be a little bit doughy, you want the center of everything.
00:52:09.695 --> 00:52:11.260
You never want the sides.
00:52:12.818 --> 00:52:19.126
But cinnamon rolls have their own built-in center, but the outside of a cake has the more frosting.
00:52:19.454 --> 00:52:22.663
That's exactly why you don't want the outside, because the frosting is the worst part.
00:52:28.855 --> 00:52:29.719
The frosting is the worst part of the cake.
00:52:29.719 --> 00:52:30.704
No, you got to surgically remove the frosting.
00:52:30.704 --> 00:52:31.168
I just feel like that.
00:52:31.168 --> 00:52:32.434
Andrew has, like I have money years.
00:52:32.434 --> 00:52:34.264
He has lasagna years.
00:52:34.264 --> 00:52:35.570
He's like man.
00:52:35.570 --> 00:52:42.543
2004 lasagna was like just a tier compared to 2024 lasagna at Olive Garden.
00:52:44.818 --> 00:52:46.788
My grandma makes a real good lasagna at Olive Garden.
00:52:46.788 --> 00:52:48.155
Yeah, my grandma makes a real good lasagna.
00:52:49.016 --> 00:52:53.762
Oh yeah, anna Rogers, does she use that real breast milk?
00:52:53.762 --> 00:53:08.436
Just kidding, I will say I agree, homemade lasagna is the best lasagna, it's just the best.
00:53:08.436 --> 00:53:16.443
It's so, so good and you get that middle piece and it's delicious and it's stacked high and it's full of all the stuff you love, and it's full of love cheese, right.
00:53:16.443 --> 00:53:21.757
So I mean perfect, perfect, right there also mondays?
00:53:22.179 --> 00:53:23.922
uh, I don't care, mondays are just another day.
00:53:23.922 --> 00:53:32.201
I mean, I like the Mondays that start the week where my payday is on that Friday.
00:53:32.201 --> 00:53:34.722
I like those Mondays better than the other Mondays.
00:53:35.757 --> 00:53:41.440
Where there's no payday Right, just a desolate landscape.
00:53:41.581 --> 00:53:42.804
It's just a week in between.
00:53:42.804 --> 00:53:46.143
You know, I don't know Once a fortnight.
00:53:46.143 --> 00:53:47.557
I don't like that Monday, I guess.
00:53:48.300 --> 00:53:49.954
so that's my answer alright.
00:53:49.954 --> 00:54:04.215
I want to know Andrew okay, so that is not really a hot take I want to know a legitimate hot take that you have alright, and now for our newest segment, the hot takes with a murder robot.
00:54:05.057 --> 00:54:22.108
So last episode, season one, season three, episode one, our good friend make three gam gave us a very hot take that rob got little red in the face reading and um, because he was so utterly shocked.
00:54:22.108 --> 00:54:26.393
But our good friend make three gam gave us another hot take on this movie.
00:54:26.393 --> 00:54:31.396
So it just seems like if she's going to keep running in, we're going to have some hot takes with a murder robot.
00:54:31.396 --> 00:54:36.887
So this week's how did breckin mayor get any work after clueless?
00:54:38.958 --> 00:54:39.981
I love clueless.
00:54:39.981 --> 00:54:41.143
I love clueless.
00:54:41.143 --> 00:54:42.666
Why can't mike respond?
00:54:43.327 --> 00:54:45.090
he was also in canvas he was why can't Mike?
00:54:45.231 --> 00:54:45.391
respond.
00:54:45.391 --> 00:54:48.925
He was also in Can't Hardly Wait with Jennifer Love Hewitt.
00:54:50.172 --> 00:54:50.574
There you go.
00:54:50.574 --> 00:54:53.300
He was like the theater kid.
00:54:53.300 --> 00:54:59.445
It has Paul Rudd in it in Clueless Come on, that's true.
00:55:00.474 --> 00:55:01.518
But what about Breckin Mayer?
00:55:01.518 --> 00:55:02.161
Was he good?
00:55:02.181 --> 00:55:02.784
in Clueless.
00:55:02.784 --> 00:55:04.059
I don't even remember who he was.
00:55:05.094 --> 00:55:06.059
I don't even know who that is.
00:55:06.059 --> 00:55:07.557
That's probably why I can't respond.
00:55:07.557 --> 00:55:08.902
I'm like, did he play?
00:55:08.902 --> 00:55:10.240
Mr Krabs, he played.
00:55:10.280 --> 00:55:15.583
Mario, don't worry, he was John Arbuckle in 2004.
00:55:16.766 --> 00:55:17.809
He played Mario.
00:55:18.978 --> 00:55:20.148
He played Mario.
00:55:20.148 --> 00:55:21.440
I meant John.
00:55:21.440 --> 00:55:23.918
He played Mario, he played Mario.
00:55:23.998 --> 00:55:26.315
I mean John, mario, mario, you played Mario, I mean John.
00:55:26.335 --> 00:55:26.856
Mario, All right.
00:55:26.856 --> 00:55:28.958
Well, thank you for that hot take Murder Robot.
00:55:28.958 --> 00:55:31.400
We will catch you in the next episode.
00:55:31.942 --> 00:55:33.003
I like how you did.
00:55:33.003 --> 00:55:36.385
You even tell her that she's part of the show now.
00:55:37.327 --> 00:55:41.451
I mean, if she keeps writing in these hot takes, she's going to stay part of the show Yo yo.
00:55:41.451 --> 00:55:43.195
All right.
00:55:43.195 --> 00:55:47.518
Well, we'd like to take a moment to talk about our upcoming movies and things we're excited to see.
00:55:47.518 --> 00:55:52.496
We also want mike quickly check back and say what we thought about the movies we wanted to see.
00:55:52.496 --> 00:55:53.820
That's a hint hint.
00:55:53.820 --> 00:55:55.543
Tell us what you thought of furiosa kiddos.
00:55:55.543 --> 00:56:00.759
Uh so, mike, what do you got upcoming that you want to see?
00:56:01.619 --> 00:56:09.682
well, at uh, at this point I'm still waiting on deadpool and it's gonna be amazing, it'll be out yeah, I uh.
00:56:09.682 --> 00:56:14.398
Yeah, at the point of recording this, deadpool is not out yet and I'm really looking forward to deadpool.
00:56:14.398 --> 00:56:15.643
I think it's going to be amazing.
00:56:15.643 --> 00:56:23.423
I saw something recently that deadpool has already been greenlit for a fourth movie, um, which I am absolutely thrilled about.
00:56:23.423 --> 00:56:28.070
If true, I love Deadpool and I love Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool.
00:56:28.070 --> 00:56:35.221
I'm also really excited for Borderlands, because I remembered it this time.
00:56:37.496 --> 00:56:38.581
That is saying something.
00:56:40.458 --> 00:56:45.900
And since we're talking about kids' movies today, I'm also actually pretty excited.
00:56:45.900 --> 00:56:48.117
They're making a dog man movie.
00:56:48.117 --> 00:56:56.277
Um, and if you're not, if you're not familiar with dog man, it is a series of graphic novels for young children.
00:56:56.277 --> 00:57:04.786
That is really funny, really well like written lots of like subtle, like jokes that parents will get.
00:57:04.786 --> 00:57:15.255
The kids might not like a robot named 80 hd, um, and it's just like little things like that and they're they're turning it into a movie.
00:57:15.255 --> 00:57:16.077
It's very fun.
00:57:16.077 --> 00:57:24.005
It's the uh, the same guy does uh, captain underpants and uh, yeah, it's.
00:57:24.005 --> 00:57:25.608
I'm, I'm looking forward to that movie.
00:57:25.608 --> 00:57:32.818
I think my kids will love it and I think I will love watching it with them, much like I did Garfield.
00:57:32.818 --> 00:57:33.561
So, yeah, that's where I'm at.
00:57:34.603 --> 00:57:36.065
All right, perfect, rob.
00:57:36.065 --> 00:57:37.148
What do you got coming up Nice?
00:57:39.255 --> 00:57:46.420
I'm interested, intrigued, by the Dune prequel series it's going to be coming out.
00:57:46.420 --> 00:57:54.125
That should be coming out on Max or HBO Max or whatever they're calling it now.
00:57:54.125 --> 00:57:58.922
Just want to see more Dune.
00:57:58.922 --> 00:58:02.458
I just want more Dune and I'll take it however I can get it.
00:58:02.458 --> 00:58:08.181
I know there's also an MMO Dune game coming out, but that one is like an Elseworlds kind of thing.
00:58:08.181 --> 00:58:14.159
The background on it is like if Paul Atreides never was born.
00:58:14.159 --> 00:58:20.762
It's like an alternate timeline Dune for the game.
00:58:20.762 --> 00:58:25.144
Both of those things I'm really interested in.
00:58:25.144 --> 00:58:26.713
That's it right now.
00:58:26.713 --> 00:58:30.047
But both of those things I'm really interested in, and then that's it right now.
00:58:30.047 --> 00:58:32.621
Did you end up?
00:58:32.641 --> 00:58:33.786
getting to see Furiosa Rob.
00:58:34.755 --> 00:58:35.438
I did not.
00:58:35.438 --> 00:58:37.184
I haven't been able to see it yet.
00:58:37.184 --> 00:58:41.179
Well, we'll check back next week yes, jess.
00:58:41.219 --> 00:58:41.559
What about you?
00:58:41.559 --> 00:58:42.403
What are you looking forward to?
00:58:43.155 --> 00:58:52.400
so I'm looking forward to Stranger Things coming back soon-ish Final season, very excited about it.
00:58:52.400 --> 00:58:56.380
For movies so now there's this third movie called Maxine.
00:58:56.380 --> 00:59:00.000
It's the third in a franchise, maxine with triple X.
00:59:00.000 --> 00:59:05.335
But I haven't seen the previous two movies, but I've been wanting to see them.
00:59:05.335 --> 00:59:13.621
So since the new one's coming out, I'm going to put in X as the movie that I want to see, and then I like it Pearl, and then with Finn.
00:59:13.621 --> 00:59:16.480
Diesel no, it's an A24 movie.
00:59:17.262 --> 00:59:19.967
Okay, oh yeah, that's triple X, yeah.
00:59:20.715 --> 00:59:23.681
Next scene with three X's Sounds like a movie that my grandma would enjoy.
00:59:26.175 --> 00:59:26.476
Oh.
00:59:27.079 --> 00:59:27.561
Yes, she would.
00:59:27.561 --> 00:59:31.958
Was that from Parks and Rec, brandy Max Alright and for me?
00:59:31.958 --> 00:59:35.403
I saw a trailer recently.
00:59:39.474 --> 00:59:40.480
This podcast guys.
00:59:42.396 --> 00:59:44.545
She must be glad that she's popular.
00:59:44.795 --> 01:00:03.041
We're covering a kids show, a kids show property and we're like this is the most unhinged we've been so I saw a trailer recently for a movie called Godzilla minus one apparently in Japanese and I guess it came out last year, but I really want to see it.
01:00:03.161 --> 01:00:04.507
I love kaiju movies.
01:00:04.507 --> 01:00:08.246
I mean they're like, they're like a guilty pleasure for me, so it's on netflix.
01:00:08.246 --> 01:00:13.282
Yeah, yeah, I think that's why I saw the trailers for it, and so I'm really excited to see it.
01:00:13.985 --> 01:00:18.376
Um, should be good I think they're also releasing a black and white version.
01:00:19.179 --> 01:00:23.728
Yeah, yeah, the godzilla minus one, minus color, or whatever it is.
01:00:23.728 --> 01:00:27.737
Yeah, have you guys, it's like, it's like post-World War 2.
01:00:27.737 --> 01:00:32.467
Yeah, I don't know, because I haven't really seen it yet, so I look forward to that.
01:00:33.094 --> 01:00:34.380
That reminds me.
01:00:34.380 --> 01:00:40.840
Have you guys seen any trailers or anything for Atlas on Netflix?
01:00:40.840 --> 01:00:42.364
Mm-mm.
01:00:42.364 --> 01:00:46.137
The movie is called Atlas.
01:00:46.137 --> 01:00:47.420
I shit you not.
01:00:47.420 --> 01:00:49.766
It is titanfall the movie.
01:00:51.257 --> 01:00:56.105
It is titanfall as a movie and it's like the one with jennifer lopez in it.
01:00:56.746 --> 01:01:05.565
Yes, oh yeah, I think that, yeah, and it like it is, it is, it is like it is everything that like.
01:01:05.565 --> 01:01:18.505
I don't think it's actually connected officially to the titanfall franchise, but I think, like the creative team behind it have very like openly admitted like, oh yeah, we were definitely inspired a little bit by titanfall.
01:01:18.505 --> 01:01:28.126
Like I think it is the closest thing that we're gonna get to titanfall 3, um, and it looks awesome wait, but atlas was a titan.
01:01:28.565 --> 01:01:38.887
Yes, yes, like, yes, 100, yes, I think in this atlas is like the is the name of the pilot of the, the giant mech.
01:01:38.887 --> 01:01:44.750
Um, yeah, no, it's, it's like it like the like visually.
01:01:44.750 --> 01:01:46.414
If you could find it, if you could find the trailer.
01:01:46.414 --> 01:01:59.409
If you haven't seen it yet and you play titanfall, go look it up because like the aesthetics of the, of the, the max and like everything about it just screams titanfall, like I remember watching it.
01:01:59.409 --> 01:02:11.282
It came up like while laura and I were watching something on hulu and it was one of the like you know ads that we got stuck watching and it was like, and I'm sitting there on the couch going Laura, laura, laura, laura, it's Titanfall, it's Titanfall, it's Titanfall.
01:02:11.282 --> 01:02:12.666
She's like what the hell is Titanfall?
01:02:12.666 --> 01:02:14.168
I was like, just trust me, this is amazing.
01:02:27.775 --> 01:02:28.601
And then it fuck is Titanfall.
01:02:28.601 --> 01:02:28.782
It's a.
01:02:28.782 --> 01:02:30.193
It's a first person shooter where you climb into a giant mech robot.
01:02:30.213 --> 01:02:37.001
Yeah, titanfall is easily one of the like greatest first person shooters ever.
01:02:37.001 --> 01:02:38.740
Titanfall 2 especially.
01:02:38.740 --> 01:02:42.934
No, like seriously, no, seriously, hands down, no contest.
01:02:42.934 --> 01:02:46.670
Like Titanfall 2 is like no, no, no, I'm serious like Titanfall 2 is like no, no, no, no, I'm serious.
01:02:46.670 --> 01:02:48.938
Like Titanfall 2 is like I've played it, Mike.
01:02:49.360 --> 01:02:49.983
That's why I'm going.
01:02:50.855 --> 01:02:52.262
Peak first person shooter.
01:02:52.262 --> 01:02:54.021
It is so much fun.
01:02:54.021 --> 01:03:01.556
And maybe part of that is skewed by the fact that I was actually pretty good at it, which is not common for first person shooters, but still.
01:03:01.556 --> 01:03:04.085
Titanfall 2, one of my favorite games of all time.
01:03:06.635 --> 01:03:07.295
It was made by the studio.
01:03:07.295 --> 01:03:18.688
It was the the guys who created the call duty 4 and modern warfare 2 okay then they broke off and formed a new studio and then that was the first game they made was tight what was it on?
01:03:20.177 --> 01:03:23.601
I was it was cross platform, I think I played it on.
01:03:23.601 --> 01:03:32.922
I must have just missed it or xbox one no, no, you played with us yeah, I've never played this.
01:03:33.342 --> 01:03:34.385
I've never played this game?
01:03:34.445 --> 01:03:39.239
no, you're, you're gaslighting him out a long time ago I've never played this game.
01:03:39.280 --> 01:03:41.644
Mike, you're thinking of pf chang?
01:03:41.684 --> 01:03:50.592
probably no you probably should try it, though it's pretty cool I swear you played us like the the parkour mechanics, like the wall running mechanics.
01:03:50.592 --> 01:03:53.501
The thing that I loved about it is like you had what's called dying light.
01:03:54.103 --> 01:04:08.036
No, you had very complex like it was before dying, like movement like mechanics and like grappling hooks and stuff that you could like zip around like the battlefield, but it was very like fluid, very tight controls, it was just.
01:04:08.036 --> 01:04:21.126
It was like it was all of the best things of every first person I think you lost me at parkour no, no, no he's like jumping puzzles, I'm out.
01:04:21.266 --> 01:04:23.916
No, it's not jumping, I have when there's a jumping puzzle.
01:04:23.936 --> 01:04:26.684
I have to hand my remote to my wife and say, no, it's not.
01:04:26.684 --> 01:04:27.485
That's the thing.
01:04:28.635 --> 01:04:31.804
But that's the thing that was really good about it is that it wasn't jumping puzzles.
01:04:31.804 --> 01:04:33.862
It was like very fluid, very natural.
01:04:33.862 --> 01:04:40.539
It was like you didn't really have to do a lot of that, like typical like jumping puzzle stuff.
01:04:40.539 --> 01:04:44.565
Oh know, it was all getting cut, but I'm trying to sell Andrew on Titanfall because it's fantastic.
01:04:44.585 --> 01:04:46.188
It would be a fun game for you to try out.
01:04:46.188 --> 01:04:51.822
I think that's all he's saying, and you could probably get it for like nothing.
01:04:51.822 --> 01:04:53.329
It's actually probably on Game Pass now.
01:04:55.518 --> 01:04:56.822
I'm not paying for Game Pass anymore.
01:04:57.603 --> 01:05:00.521
Oh, no, okay, All we've been playing is Helldivers.
01:05:01.998 --> 01:05:04.181
I paused it until we go back to the Xbox.
01:05:09.094 --> 01:05:09.478
I don't know.
01:05:09.478 --> 01:05:11.369
I kind of want to go back to Fallout just because they added all that expansion.
01:05:11.369 --> 01:05:12.235
I don't want to go back to Fallout.
01:05:12.355 --> 01:05:14.262
I don't want to go back to State of Decay, I don't know.
01:05:14.262 --> 01:05:21.675
Anyways, merc, alright, well, thank you for joining us on this episode of Rebooted.

Shout out to the nana's, to all the nana's out there, shout out that was weird.
01:06:07.367 --> 01:06:07.867
And scene.
01:06:09.155 --> 01:06:15.018
Well, that was a cool hour and 18 minutes In this cartoon classic that Bill Moore.
01:06:16.539 --> 01:06:17.704
Bill Maury.
01:06:19.016 --> 01:06:20.342
Alright, alright, mark.
01:06:22.197 --> 01:06:24.619
I got to put this on my ear.
01:06:28.277 --> 01:06:29.240
I do like that.
01:06:29.240 --> 01:06:34.126
We the first 20 minutes of us just trying to get everything set up nothing.
01:06:34.126 --> 01:06:42.025
Then we start recording and it's like the gremlins come out to play.
01:06:42.045 --> 01:06:42.606
Close the door.
01:06:42.606 --> 01:06:43.288
I thought I was the mean one.
01:06:43.288 --> 01:06:43.929
The gremlins come out to pay.
01:06:43.929 --> 01:06:44.588
Close the door.
01:06:44.608 --> 01:06:44.889
Close the door.
01:06:44.889 --> 01:06:45.269
Close the door.
01:06:45.269 --> 01:06:46.331
Two of you cowards.
01:06:47.076 --> 01:06:47.980
I thought I was the mean one.
01:06:50.677 --> 01:06:51.641
I mean you still are.
01:06:51.641 --> 01:06:52.744
Yeah, okay, that's fair.
01:06:52.744 --> 01:06:57.722
So, rob, why don't you bang us off here with our first Pieces O trivia?
01:06:58.494 --> 01:07:00.824
That is a really poor choice of phrasing there.
01:07:01.614 --> 01:07:06.047
I think it was a great choice of phrasing, phrasing, phrasing.
01:07:06.889 --> 01:07:08.514
He likes cottage cheese and lasagna.
01:07:08.514 --> 01:07:11.864
That's a hot take and it's wrong.
01:07:12.737 --> 01:07:15.494
I was trying to segue you into the next segment.
01:07:16.242 --> 01:07:23.960
I don't like hot cheese on a cottage cheese, cottage cheese, cottage cheese, cottage cheese.
