About this Episode

TFG1Mike and Steve/Megatron wrap up their Spider-Man coverage by reviewing the three MCU films directed by John Watts: Homecoming, Far From Home, and No Way Home. They discuss casting choices, villain characterization, effects, and their personal rankings of the trilogy—with particular focus on what makes No Way Home stand out as a multiverse story that brings back characters from previous Spider-Man franchises.

Hey, it's your friendly neighborhood Spider -Man

here, and I'm swinging by the Geekcast Radio

Network. But that's not all, folks. Here's the

real blockbuster brace yourselves. You might

want to sit out 2017 five years ago 2019 three

years ago 2021 a year ago in the last five years

We've gotten three spider -man films and those

are the John Watts directed films Which brings

Spidey into the MCU? I am for Steve Joe and Mike

and joining me as always is Steve Megatron. Hello,

sir Yo Yo Today we are going to tell you how

we feel about the Holland triple shot of Spider

-Man films. You are inside Studio 2009, only

on the EECAS radio network. So, you haven't been

on the show for a while. Actually, I haven't

been on the show for a while. Somehow, we have

a Krimzik in the studio, and he decides to go

on his... Issues with his tissues yes dj valentine

is the crime seek of the cast radio network because

what he does is little issue skits for us. They

could show up here they could show up on the

cast radio they could show up on the pool bag

hell at this has happened yet but they might

even show up alter geek i don't know it just

depends on where it's gonna fit. But dj has been

doing some issues stuff. DJ and I did, I think

we did an SDCC wrap up of the various lackluster

panels between DC and Warner Brothers and Marvel

and all that. I mean Marvel wasn't lackluster,

but DC is like, here you go everybody, block

Adam for the next 10 years. Yeah, no thanks.

So you are back, sir, and we are here to finally

wrap up the Summer of Spider -Man here on...

Studio 2009, how the hell have you been recently

since you haven't been on the show? Broke a finger

Yeah and sprained the same finger You broke and

sprained it at the different sections, but yeah

Otherwise doing pretty well That's good. That's

good. All right We are gonna get into it Right

after the first trailer for Spider -Man Homecoming,

we'll be back after this. No, we've seen that

before. Never with that skirt. He should probably

stop staring before he gets creepy, though. Yeah.

Too late. You guys are losers. So, to become

an Avenger, are there, like, trials or an interview?

Just don't do anything I would do. And definitely

don't do anything I wouldn't do. There's a little

gray area in there, and that's where you operate.

Oh. Alright. That's not a hug. I'm just grabbing

the door for you. Alright, kid. Good luck out

there. Listen, I know school sucks. Peter, you

still with us? Uh, yeah, yeah. I know you want

to save the world, but... You're not ready yet.

You're the Spider -Man. No, I'm not. I'm not.

This is just a costume. You're on the ceiling!

Stay close to the ground. And stay out of trouble.

Forget the flying monster guy. There are people

who handle this sort of thing. I'm sick of him

treating me like a kid all the time. But you

are a kid. This is my chance to prove myself.

Peter, what is going on with you? I'm really

sorry. I'm so busy. I'm slammed. Don't mess with

me. Because I will kill you and everybody you

love. All right, folks, Spider -Man Homecoming.

Just the facts. As I said before, all three films

were directed by John Watts. The screenplay for

this one was done by Jonathan Goldstein and John

Francis Daley, along with John Watts, Christopher

Ford, Chris McKenna and Eric Summers. The story

was done by Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis

Daley, obviously based on Spider -Man by Stan

Lee and Steve Ditko. And yeah, starring... Tom

Holland, Michael Keaton and John Favreau and

Gwyneth Paltrow and Zendaya, Donald Glover, obviously

Robert Downey Jr. because this one heavily has

Iron Man in it. Music for all, I believe all

three of these films is Michael Giacchino. Love

Michael's music. Very, very cool. This, and this

is so funny to me how, and I don't know if it's

just Wikipedia or if this is how it actually

happens, but. Wikipedia, like in how they'll

do like a premieres at somewhere like the actual

theatrical release date for the wide release

is July 7th, 2017. But there was a limited Hollywood

engagement on June 28th. I don't understand that

running time for this is 133 minutes. The budget

was 175 million and it made $880 .2 million.

Did you see this in theaters? Um, what year is

it? 2017. 2017? No. As a matter of fact, I have

not seen a movie in theaters in years. Yeah.

And basically following the Battle of New York

in 2012, Adrian Toomes, AKA Batman Michael Keaton.

Is you know doing the operation clean up takeover

thing and then the government comes in and says

nope you can't do it and you know Peter and Tony

and everything else and Peter's trying you know

Peter wants to be an Avenger Peter wants to you

know do all this big heavy lifting stuff and

Tony's like no just just take it easy kid it's

okay and I like Michael Keaton as an actor I

always have I like him as Adrian Tombs aka the

vulture I think that that's a cool casting for

this film I did not warm up to Tom Holland as

Peter or Spider -Man until a film will get to

at the end of this podcast because I don't like.

Toby Maguire's like awkwardness fits Peter, and

it fit Peter 20 years ago, it fits Peter now.

But I don't know what it is about Tom Holland's

portrayal of Peter specifically. He's too confident.

Yeah. Yeah, that's yeah, that's the that's probably

it. And I felt like this film, there's no Avengers

level threat they're like we're coming off the

battle of new york just after this you know when

this film start and like hello the battle of

new york is the battle of new york. From the

twenty twelve avengers film but it's like i mean

he's fighting guys that are trying to steal the

alien tech. Like it doesn't feel like it does

kind of feel like a friendly neighborhood spider

man thing but it doesn't also feel like. He and

he's not even ready for an end -of -the -world

event, but like this movie does not give me Like

I wasn't singing its praises and honestly up

until I watched it just before we recorded this

episode of the podcast I watched this a couple

of days ago Like you I know I didn't see this

in theaters But I don't think I had ever fully

watched it I think I saw the Tony Stark stuff

on YouTube or something, and I saw the first

25 minutes of it. But other than that, I don't

remember ever watching this film. Same thing

when we get to Far From Home. Up until right

before No Way Home released on digital, I had

never seen Far From Home. So I've only ever watched

Far From Home twice when it first came out. on

the digital you know when they because for me

like when no way home was getting ready to release

voodoo had this eight film bundle you could you

know spend a certain amount of money you get

the remi trilogy the the two amazing films and

then these three because i didn't want to spend

that individually i wanted it all in one thing

so i got it all in one go and i had never never

seen far from home and homecoming it isn't a

bad film but it isn't a good film either This

is my chance to prove myself. Well, this is kind

of my opinion. I liked the third film, No Way

Home the Most, followed by Homecoming, followed

by Far From Home. And yes, while Homecoming is

mostly the fallout of Tony Stark's, he essentially

creates his own villains because he's got all

this money and can do whatever he wants. So he

took over all the, you know, picking up the alien

trash instead of letting Adrian Toombs do it.

Which, don't get me wrong, it's kind of cool

to see Michael Keaton playing that role. Fills

it really well, gives it a nice ominous presence

that some of the villains kind of lacked in the

Amazing Spider -Man. dual films. We haven't quite

seen this level of gravitas since, honestly,

an earlier MCU film. I really loved that aspect

of the film and some of the different things

that were playing out and Tony Stark trying to

allow or not allow Spider -Man the ability to

do certain things. Then you get to Far From Home

and you have... I just did not like Jalen Hall's

character. I did not like Mysterio. I didn't

like the whole Tony Stark kill satellites. I

didn't like any of that. Then I really hated

how it tied into the No Way Home. My favorite

part of No Way Home is the fact that Tobey Maguire

shows up. I mean, that's - But you get all three

Spider -Men, and to me, that was the icing on

the cake. Yes, you got the villains coming back,

but it was ultimately, for me, like seeing Tobey

Maguire come back. Well, it was a whole, again,

No Way Home is this, honestly, it's a masterpiece

of superhero filmmaking because you have - everything

in it you have strange you have a little bit

of stark you have all the spider people you have

all the spider villains you basically have a

spider man you know the spider verse in live

-action sort of kind of thing with and i like

how with that film we're not even really there

yet but we are but you know i like how with that

one it has various you know like They don't just

want to let them die or let you know kill them

or whatever. They want to see if no They want

to hear them which is a very Peter Parkery thing.

Yeah, absolutely and You know far from home.

I Jake Gyllenhaal man, I honestly didn't even

Like who the hell is he like really seriously

like I Know I know his name and I know I've seen

him and stuff but I don't know. I don't even

understand in Far From Home what his whole...

I mean, I know what the character of Quentin

Beck is. I know what Mysterio is, but what was

his point? He wants to take over the world, I

guess? I don't even... I'm watching this movie

and I'm like, dude, what are you trying to do

other than confuse the hell out of everyone in

the movie? plus the entire audience. Yeah, I

mean, the whole movie was kind of just blah to

me. I just I really didn't care. I didn't I didn't

resonate with it. I really didn't care about

it. It was kind of I mean, I liked the idea that

they were bringing Mysterio in, but I didn't

like the implementation of the entire film. Yeah,

the execution was just I like the effects. The

effects are cool. That's great and you know the

whole thing with Edith and the killer drones

and the water like I mean I get it You know,

they're trying to show us that in this in far

from home Peter's still kind He's sort of ready,

but he isn't ready ready kind of thing And yeah,

I'm looking at Dylan Hall's IMDB. He was a kid

in city slickers He was in homicide life on the

street for an episode October sky moonlight mile

like i don't recognize like as i'm scrolling

up the like. Love another drugs i didn't even

really see that movie. But like there's nothing

like honestly up until you get to twenty nineteen

spider man far from home there is nothing in

his filmography. That is to me personally is

memorable maybe some other people like oh he

was on a. episode of Inside Amy Schumer, a show

I've never watched. But like, you know, normally

with some of our actors that we talk about, they'll

be like a law and order connection or a Batman

connection or this connection or that connection.

And I really can't connect him with anything.

I can't believe I gave Beck those glasses. I

mean, how could I be that stupid? He's probably

spying on me right now or sending a drone to

come and kill me. You had access to killer drones?

Yeah, I didn't really want them, especially after

I almost killed Brad. You almost killed Brad?

Look, I have to call Mr. Fury and tell him that

Beck's a fraud, but... Yeah, I don't know. In

Homecoming we have... Michael Keaton and the

vulture and all that and it turns out he's actually

Liz's dad and I guess the whole point of the

movie is eventually, you know, Peter wants to

get to the homecoming dance. I mean, hello, it's

Spider -Man homecoming. Yeah. So, you know, I

do like how homecoming ends where Peter puts

on the new suit and Aunt May walks in and like

that, that whole. Peter what the? And then it

just ends and then obviously we go to the mid

credits scene with the incarcerated Gargan approaching

tombs and all that. Yeah, you're right man. Like,

No Way Home is easily the best out of these three

films. It really, really is. Yeah, and honestly,

I loved all of the actors coming back. I loved

the aspect of just... I don't know. It felt like

if you were a fan of Toby's Spider Films, you

got something to love. If you loved Andrew Garfield's

Spider -Man, you got something to love. If you

love Holland's... You got something to love.

I mean, so everybody had something, but it was

mostly Toby's villain gallery. Yeah. Well, I

mean, you know, again, we know what happened

to at least Toby's version of Eddie and Venom

and all that. But with the Tobey Maguire Sam

Raimi universe, you have two of Spider -Man's

biggest villains in Goblin and Doc Ock. And then

they brought Sandman. So you got one from every

film. Yeah, yeah, so you got you did get one

from every film and I like that I love and the

thing with Sandman is at least how I like he's

a little well, no, that's hydro man in the in

the in the shit like old cartoon show thing with

Sandman in the right like That just happened

to him. He what like yes, did he cause destruction

at all? But like all he wants is to get back

to his family So when they gave him the cure,

it's like, oh, yay, I get a happy ending and

that's great. That's awesome. I love that they

did that. I think that's cool. I think that's

what's cool about opening up the multiverse of

madness. Because yeah, you get to see everything

and man, I loved seeing the sanctorum filled

with snow. That was hilarious. You also see in

some of these movies like the, like the first

two of these, you see, you know, like, yes, Peter

is growing. Yes, Peter is growing into the role.

But we know he's in both homecoming and far from

home. He is nowhere near, like he needs to just

be stopping bank robber, like ATM robbers and

things like that. He doesn't need to be doing

Avengers level stuff even though he already went

to space once. Well, and I love the fact that

Tony had embedded in the suit. I forget what

he calls it, but it was... There's a ton of other

subsystems in here, but they're all disabled

by the training wheels protocol. What? Training

wheels protocol. And then he's like, hey. There

was the training wheels protocol or something.

Yeah, that's what it was training I was training

wheels and it was something there were like three

different names for various things like Edith

was asking Peter would you like to unlock this?

Would you like to do this? Would you like? Oh

the killer drones because this school all that

I understand it's a mistake. It's a this it's

a that it's a misunderstanding whatever but And

I gotta say, I don't know what they plan on doing

with Flash in this universe, but I hope they

don't do anything with him other than recast

him, because I hate the guy that plays him. Oh,

me too. He's totally worthless. Yes, I'm like,

the whole point of Flash Thompson is, okay, yes,

technically he is Peter Parker's bully. And,

you know, stop bullying now, folks, you know,

stand up and all that and everything else and

speak up and, you know, bullying must be stopped

no matter the cost. But eventually, Flash becomes

Spidey's superfan and then Flash ends up with

various things. I think he ends up being Agent

Venom in a few things and whatever else. But

this Flash is just annoying as all. Get out.

Oh, and annoying as all get out up until he got

his strange powers. Ned is. I don't much care

for him either, but they kind of retconned of

anyway by the end of the film. Yeah, by no way

home they did. But yeah, like. I get that they're

going for the. hole. Peter Parker is a teenager.

Peter Parker is in high school. Peter Parker

has to juggle being Spider -Man and being Peter

Parker. But the thing with that is is normally

he's not so he's not so much of wanting to be

an adult, but he's not so much as wanting to

be Childish either like he has some responsibility

and that's the thing with this universe Was there

even an uncle Ben thing? Like I think they mentioned

it once that he's not in the universe or he died

or before we saw whatever like That's the one

thing about these three films There is no uncle

Ben. Yeah, and Yeah, I'm pretty sure they dumped

him Yeah, so Uncle Ben isn't here and at the

end of it, you know, May, when she dies, she

is the one that says with great power comes great

responsibility. And I kind of like it because

it's not your standard Spider -Man. It is sort

of a standard Spider -Man, but you have Tony

in there kind of being the father figure overall.

But like you just have Aunt May. and that i think

is is really cool there is no burden i mean if

you want to count tony's death as a burden hanging

over the spider -man's head i guess you could

do that but i don't know i think you've done

enough homecoming and far from home the plots

in them are very very thin however when we get

to no way home everything explodes Ever since

I got bit by that spider, I've only had one week

where my life has felt normal. That was when

you found out. When you botched that spell where

you wanted everyone to forget the Peter Parker

Spider -Men, we started getting some visitors.

from every universe. Hello, Peter. You're not

Peter Parker. I'm sorry, what was your name again?

Dr. Otto Octavius. Wait, no, seriously, what's

your actual name? There are others out there.

We need to send them back. So, scooby -doo this

crap. You know, all this is kind of your mess.

I know a couple of magic words myself, starting

with the word, please. Please, scooby -doo this

crap. Oh, yeah. And there's a lot going on. And

it's mostly because, as usual, Goblin throws

a monkey wrench. And at the end of that movie

was Gobby throwing a pumpkin bomb. Also, the

end of that movie was the return of J .K. Simmons

as J. Jonah Jameson. Peter Parker is Spider -Man?

Oh man, I love, I love J .K. So good. What are

your thoughts on No Way Home as far as the plot

goes? I mean, it's pretty straightforward for

the whole film. I mean, it all starts because

Spider -Man won't shut his mouth. and let Dr.

Strange do what he needed to do, but also because

he was afraid to take the other road and let

things kind of play out the way that they were

meant to. He wanted the easy way out. He didn't

want to work for it. He didn't want to deal with

the fact that people hated Spider -Man or hated

that he was Spider -Man. I felt like it would

have been some true growth on his behalf. I get

that it would suck having everybody know your

personal life and everything about it. Don't

know. He could have just had it better in a sense

Had he not yeah opened up his pie hole and had

this whole thing happen. Yeah, I mean Trying

to get to the admissions director on the freeway

like Dude, come on and then he runs in dot. I

do love Alfred Molina in this he's like hello

Peter. You're not Peter. Yes, I am no you're

not like i i love that whole interaction i think

that is super cool and again like i said earlier

what i love about this movie is that each of

these quote unquote villains gets they there

are a couple of times where doc ock is like you're

not gonna you're not gonna you know fix me in

a way like oh my god i'm broken or oh my god

you need to change me no they're trying to you

know, repair you to the point where you can control

the arms versus the arms controlling you and,

you know, all these voices in your head and everything

else. I was never a fan of this version of Electro.

I'm never really a fan of Electro in general,

but the Max Dillon Electro, like, I'm like, okay,

come on. Like, just accept it and, you know,

let them help you. But there's some people that

are just too power -hungry, I guess Yeah, I don't

know. I was not a fan of the character until

he hit no way home No, I did not like him in

the amazing spider -man though He just seemed

really weird and kind of just I don't know really

odd I like but I really like this but the thing

is is that the reason why he seemed really weird

and odd in in his move in an amazing spider -man

2 is because He was characterized as this nerd.

And they made him a jock. He's like, ooh, unlimited

power. Ooh, this, ooh, that, whatever. And in

this movie, he gets the, an arc reactor and holy

crap. What an effect. I don't like the romance

with Aunt May and Happy Hog, and that's a little...

That's dead to the world now. Yeah, kinda. I

mean, yeah. Yeah. Low blow, low blow. Yeah, I...

And I don't know why they had to make May so

much younger than what she normally is. I'm not

sure what the feeling was behind that. In doing

that and Marisa Torme is a great actress. I've

seen her in plenty of things that she is so great

and she is great as Aunt May. I just, I see more

of the Rosemary Harris, the old, you know, Aunt

May versus a younger version of her. So. Anything

else we want to say about No Aome? What do you

think of the effects, the overall effects of

the movie? Well, I love the updating of things

because, let's face it, the Toby films were not

that visually stunning. I don't know. If I was

about to get emotional about a film, it would

be this because the first Marvel film I saw in

theaters was Spider -Man 2002. And now technically

he's a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

So I'm ecstatic that he was brought in. I loved

seeing him return to the role. I have a deeper

appreciation for Spider -Man 2 and 3 even. after

seeing this. But yeah, I just loved the the amazement

that they had, you know. Yeah, that was a great

scene. You make your own web fluid? That's cool.

And he's like, how do you do that? And he's like,

I don't do it. It just does. Can you always just

that out of your wrist? I'm like, no, don't go

there. Please don't. So you like make your own

web fluid in your body. I'd rather not talk about

this. No, I don't mean to. Are you teasing me?

No, no, no, no, no. He's not teasing you. It's

just that. We can't do that. So naturally we're

curious as to how your web situation works He's

like, can I shoot it out of my butt out of his

butt out of some other area? Yeah, it's just

just he's like no it's just just my wrists I

yeah, I yeah, that was so cool and and Essentially

for new audiences that may not have seen the

other two franchise film series You get introduced

to these characters in a way where they get to

talk and compare notes Like you just look like

we're just talking about the webbing, but they

also you know tell Holland Peter about you know

their universes and what happened in them and

whatever else so not that you don't If people

want to go back and watch those original films,

please do But you don't necessarily have to once

they are introduced here. And I loved seeing

all three of them web swing together. I thought

that was great. Oh yeah, that was definitely

one of my favorite things. Anything else we want

to say about... No way home or far from home

or homecoming No, I just I just enjoyed it overall

and it was it was a very fun movie. I had no

Dislike of the fight I do like and I don't know

how they're gonna use this in the future But

I do like any Brock and venom the the Tom Hardy,

you know Kind of shows up and leaves behind a

piece of the venom symbiote. I think that's cool

as hell I thought that was an interesting little

thing And what Happy says to Peter at May's grave,

you know, kind of inspires him to carry on. And

he's making a new suit resuming his, his superhero

duties. And who knows what's, I mean, we kind

of know what's going to happen from here, but

we don't know just yet. As far as the future,

December. Let's see they were working on beginning

develop the story for the next spider -man film

following Parker's momentous decision in no way

home Homecoming I will give a three and a half

out of five on our universal scale far from home

I will give it a two and then no way home is

easily a four and a half or five What about you

homecoming? I'll give A 4 out of 5. Far From

Home, I'd probably give it a 2 .5 out of 5. And

then No Way Home, I'd probably give it a... I

have to give it a 5 just because I really enjoyed

it. Yeah. I mean, there's nothing wrong with

No Way Home. I almost want to watch it again

now. I just watched it. Since I bought the 8

-pack... digital thing. I've seen the film like

three times now since since it hit digital and

it's just so dead like No Way Home and Spider

-Man 1 are the two greatest Spider -Man movies

at this point. Spider -Man 2 is right up there

with it but if you're if you're gonna ask me

to pick my two top two favorite live -action

Spider -Man films, No Way Home and then 2002

Spider -Man. No, I get it. Yeah, and I mean 2002

spider -man like you were saying earlier Yes,

the effects back then were a little whatever

but that was because it was made back then and

not everything is gonna hold I mean How can you

hold up today's standards with everything the

Marvel Cinematic Universe is done in the last?

2008 is almost 20 years almost sort of You know,

so I don't know. All right, we're going to take

a quick break. You're going to hear some ads

that. In No Way Home, Electro even pointed out,

oh, I thought there'd be a black Spider -Man.

So you know, at some point, they're gonna bring

in Miles Morales into the live action. Like,

he made that comment. Oh yeah, they'd have to.

And it's like, okay, fine. And look, I like Miles.

It's so weird to me. That video game, the PlayStation

Insomniac game that's out, that's been out since,

it's been out since 2015. And it's like, it doesn't

feel like it. That game feels so awesome and

it feels so good. And I just, I watch all kinds

of people playing that game and I'm like, ah,

it's easily the best superhero game outside of

Arkham stuff. Like on the Marvel side, it's easily

the best Marvel game that has ever been in video

games kind of thing. And Miles is in that. Obviously,

Miles is in Spider -Verse. And at some point,

we probably will do Spider -Verse. If you're

interested, if you're not interested, I can find

somebody else. Oh yeah, I like Spider -Verse.

It was fun. Probably a studio tune cast crossover

since it's a cartoon. And yeah, what have you

got going on right now, sir? Lots of stuff on

all things Transformers, as always. The occasional

alter geek, and then of course... Just enjoying

the things coming out of the different conventions

regarding Transformers and Star Trek. For me,

I've got a whole bunch of stuff going on. We

just had two huge interviews. David Kaye returned

after 11 years. We talked with him. We talked

with Tom Bergeron for the first time, and that

was so fun. Absolutely. Yeah. Absolutely love

that. I've done some of the stuff and all that

and whatever else I actually have. As of this

recording, this coming up Wednesday, I'm going

to be talking, we're going to get a... I believe

he's been on three times, I think. Pat Chand,

he's a writer. He wrote the Robin Hood comics

from Xenoscope. I've been doing the convention

recaps with people my buddy Christopher and his

buddy Matt. I guess you could say he's my buddy

too, even though he's not a Funko fan, which

is whatever. But we did, they went to various

conventions and helped out and worked out with

like Rose City Comic -Con and Emerald City Comic

-Con. They helped out one of their friends who

had a booth there. So I'm like, oh, come on,

come on GeekCast Radio and do a convention recap.

Well, with Pat. New York Comic Con just ended

and Pat's like, so let's figure out a date. I'm

like, okay, sure. Fine. Let's go. So we're doing

that Wednesday at noon. Probably be on Geocast

radio and the pull bag. I don't know yet, but

yeah, lots of, lots of podcasting going on. Lots

of things. The pull bag is coming up to 500 episodes.

The 500th episode will air November 30th, 2022.

And then obviously this coming March in 2023

will be that show's 10 year anniversary. God.

10 years of that. Wow. That's a that's a whole

other can of worms, folks. Coming up next here.

Coming up next here on Studio 2009. Honestly,

I don't know. I have a schedule for us. And oh,

that's it. That's that's what we're doing next.

And I know technically I've said this is very

true. That this podcast is about anything in

the audio and visual realm. So from video games

to cartoons to move, but we just end up doing

movies sometimes unless we do commercials or

we don't. But so next time it's going to be another

movie thing, but it's going to be us doing a

double shot. Uh, one that you picked in one that

I picked it's, uh, it's a Ryan Reynolds day for

episode 51, because we're going to cover the

Adam project and. Yep. That is such a good film.

I love time travel movies. Did we ever do the

time traveler's wife? I know I did a written

article about it. I don't recall, to be honest.

I'll have to search for it later. Episode 51,

the next episode is going to be The Adam Project

and my pick. for the Ryan Reynolds Netflix thing

would be six underground because I really dug

that. That one's good too. Yeah. So that'll be

a double feature. And then we've got a bunch

of other stuff. I've got a podcast approach coming

up that this person is the one that kind of outside

of Steve and everything Steve has done for me

over the last. 13, 14 years. Michael David Sims

from Earth2 .net, the show. I got him on the

pull bag. That's the pull bag's 500th episode

that will air in November. Well, in October,

October 25th marks the 17th anniversary of him

starting Earth2 .net, the web, the podcast and

all that and everything else. So I'm going to

take him through his podcast approach. And yeah,

we're just going to. Have some more fun. We're

probably going to switch up Video Games We Love

Part 3. That will be the PS2, Sega, Dreamcast,

and Xbox part of the evolution of Video Games

We Love. I know you had an Xbox 360, but that's

slightly different from the original. Did you

ever have a Dreamcast? I have played a majority

of the different systems, but I have not owned

a Dreamcast. But you've played it yes, okay because

for me I've only ever really played ps2 I tried

playing crazy taxi on dreamcast, but I just I

just couldn't and Yeah, and then at some point

probably the beginning of next year. We're gonna

do a crocodile done D episode So there's lots

of fun stuff coming up here inside the studio

between podcast approach the movies we want to

talk about Uh, and eventually some other interesting

stuff that, that, that may arise. So, so yeah,

that's what's, uh, coming up on the show. Anything

else you want to promote before I run through

the outro? No. All right. Thank you for joining
