Welcome to geek cast radio. This is episode 72.

I am your host TF2 and Mike Steve Megatron Couldn't

be here some weird facsimile Godzilla swallowed

him whole Look he's Godzilla. That's not Godzilla

due to cause That's the only thing I like about

Godzilla on us the ladies and gentlemen is the

iron Austin Powers a gold -member movie when

the two guys are talking about it We are continuing

on with the syndication nation spotlight this

time around. I've got mr. Jeremy fine from Hunnic

outcast podcast. Hello, sir. How you doing there,

sir? I could complain but no one will listen.

Yeah So When did you first become interested

in podcasting whether it was listening or You

got your own idea to do your own podcast or how

did that start? Well, actually it goes back to

1997 when I was in Staten Island, New York I

was near Staten Island cable the public access

studio, which was CTV and some friends of mine

were trying to put together a show about professional

wrestling because we couldn't shut up about it

for a while. We were pissed off how after 1995

the WWF turned to crap. So we decided to put

together a show. the storylines mainly you know

and this was going to be cutting -edge because

he had everybody talking about professional wrestling

but we were going to talk about behind the scenes

not to mention the fact we were near a few independent

arenas where we got to meet Rowdy Piper and Duggan

and Nikolay Volkov pretty much when their contracts

expired with Vince McMahon and with you know

what WCW how it turned to crap They would do

a lot of independence markets, so they would

come to the bingo arenas and the You know the

fun stations, and it was okay. I mean my original

major in school was Drama than film and communications,

but when it wasn't working out too well because

unfortunately with public access television You

had a lot of people that had a lot of ideas,

but then after a while they weren't getting paid

for it So they would just pick up and leave so

I Realized the bills are piling. I would try

to put together films and make films, but nobody

really was interested so I just transitioned

to another major which was sociology and psychology,

but I would keep a minor in English literature

and then eventually transition into nursing.

But sometime in 2005 or 2006, I started to hear

about podcasts, you know, how you can make your

own independent radio show. And I tried to put

it together, but my friends got back together

with me and we tried to do public access work

again and I just tried to do a show that would

not deal with professional wrestling because

I would hear off camera how one person was interested

in Godzilla movies and another person was interested

in doing voiceover work. And I was like, well,

why don't we do a variety show? But then people

just picked up and left. So I put it off for

a few years. And then in 2010 or 11, when I was

just researching podcasting again and deciding,

OK. Who's doing what and why so I don't step

on any toes? geek cast was the first one that

I came across and For about a year and a half.

I was just hooked I I think the first one I was

listening to was tune cast. I think it was It

was probably the Thundercats episode and Yeah,

and then I started listening to Batman and as

you know I was hooked on Legends of the Dark

Knight podcast. So, you know, I wrote a few reviews

eventually. And then I was listening to Two Casts

Beyond and listening to everything else you guys

were doing. And I would subscribe to several

other podcasts with geocast and non -geocast.

And I got to, you know, guest on a couple podcasts

here and there. Well, finally, I decided to say,

OK, what can I do that could be original? And

on a GalCast podcast, I figured let me do a grab

bag gimmick. Let me do it where it's right. Like

sometimes I'll do Godzilla. Sometimes I'll talk

about Twilight Zone. Sometimes I'll talk about

Batman 66. You know, stuff that I grew up watching

and I could discuss. And it just kind of snowballed

into that. Thankfully, the Twilight Zone does

not sparkle. yeah well yes you know that is just

you know died poor Robert Patterson what happened

to him yeah let's not go there all right so What

outside of GCR and what other shows have you

listened to what other influences do you have

as far as? Crafting your own show well the ones

that I've subscribed to the non -key cast there's

Disney film project which influenced me because

they were discussing the family -friendly Disney

movies So I would go on their Facebook page,

and I write a couple fan reviews, you know, Wreck

-It Ralph and Return to Oz, and they invited

me to, you know, I've guessed it on their Return

to Oz and Monsters Incorporated and Lone Ranger

and Winnie the Pooh. And we just sat down, we

analyzed, we discussed why we like these films,

and the reason was because, you know, a couple

of them are parents and they want to bring their

love for Disney films that some of them you haven't

even heard of. Or some you, you know, forgot

about that it used to be on NBC on Sunday nights,

you know, like Mr. Boogity. And they discussed

them and it was a great show. Another one was

Torgo's Pizzeria podcast where they would just

discuss TV shows that they used to watch in the

80s and 90s, like the Beetlejuice cartoon and

In Living Color. And they would just discuss

like the pros and cons of the shows. It influenced

me because I realized how I should craft my own

show. Should I just discuss the pros and cons?

Should I analyze it? Should I give my philosophical

or psychological aspects? And I figured the best

thing that I should do is, because I have a degree

in psych and sociology and English literature,

I should give the psychological and some philosophical...

obstacle aspects of what I feel why I like certain

shows and the characters and the pros and cons

and I figured as I said with the gray bag at

least I'm not sticking with one topic because

I felt in the past if I would stick with one

thing I was even boring myself and I would trail

off a lot because I would compare one piece of

pop culture to another and I figured okay Keep

trailing off. Let me break it down into different

episodes and the different topics and this way

it would be a little bit You know sticking with

the subject and it's worked because the shows

that I picked and how I've broken them down the

Godzilla movies Originally, I was calling them

Kaiju bless. Are you welcome? but I found it

to be a little bit insulting to the Japanese

culture because I've realized that the Japanese

monsters are based on gods and deities of their

culture. And I've picked up a book called Jap

America. And it's an interesting book, and it

deals with the author, who is American, but he...

had to live in Japan for a while because his

father had to move around because his father

was in the army so he would compare Japanese

culture to American culture movie -wise and TV

-wise. So I've changed the title of that show

to respect the culture a little bit more. With

Simpsons I've come across my co -host Rachel

where we discuss maybe four or five episodes

of a season of Simpsons because I've been watching

it as a kid, she doesn't watch it as much as

I do, so she'll just pick like a few episodes

like she'll pick two and I'll pick two and we'll

break them down and we'll say like why we enjoy

these episodes over the years. Soapcast, I've

just gone on a soapbox and I've ranted and raved

one of them when Blockbuster officially closed

a few months ago. I discussed, you know, how

the mom -and -pop stores were you know destroyed

by these corporate stores but then they were

destroyed by internet corporate stores and what

really destroyed the blockbuster corporation

i think which is you know was a bad customer

service or was it the fact that people just didn't

want to go to blockbuster anymore you know the

people finding convenience with netflix even

though i do miss blockbuster And I went on the

soapbox saying what the pros of Blockbuster were

and what the cons of Blockbuster were. Soapcast

has gotten some interesting feedback because

they like the fact they just go on a soapbox

and I'll rant and rave for 15, 20 minutes. This

way it breaks it down a little more. Yeah. There

was one of those that I had a huge issue with.

Oh, OK. Yeah. Yeah, I know what you're talking

about. Come on, man. You put Tone Locke and the

vice president in Iron Man 3 in a movie with

a kid who has a computer. You're telling me that's

not a good movie. Come on now. Blank Check was

awesome. You know, it's funny because when I

was guesting a Disney film project, there was

a 50 -50 chance we were going to be reviewing

that movie. But it turned out the bullet was

dodged. And we ended up talking about Winnie

the Poe. And then a couple of days later, they

were going to be talking about Blank Check. And

I listened to what they had to say, and I figured,

you know what, I gotta put in my own two cents,

but you know, with Disney Film Project, and of

course it makes sense, they wanna have it with

two guys and two girls, because they've tried

it in the past where they've had three guys and

one girl, and unfortunately, it gets to a point

where they're... There's the variety they need

the female and the male perspective on that and

that makes sense But and also the family aspect

for me when I saw blank check I Was 16 at the

time and I had to take my cousin because he had

to see this movie because he loved home alone

But for me it was a homo knockoff. Yeah, it has

tone woke. I love him It's got I guess that drop

did CIA FBI agent whatever she is which yeah,

she was a model and she has done better work

down the road and of course It's got the guy

from Barden think who of course is Musburger

But the problem with all of that is that I don't

care about Brian Bondswell. He sounds like he

has a sore throat, but he was forced to go on

set. And he's not likable or interesting, and

he just kills it. And of course, they discussed

the plot on Disney Film Project, and I've discussed

the plot, where it's just creepy that a 13 -year

-old kid is in love with a 25 -year -old woman,

and she's okay with this. It just it just feels

for a Disney movie just like bugged me And it's

the only one that I just had to stop the review

because I just couldn't do it anymore I just

I just was breaking down that plot. I was like

no I it's the only one where I just had a stop

halfway and I that's why I did it on a soap cast

and Not on anything else Well, I mean, you know

depending you know, regardless of opinion I mean

the money the movie made its money back it had

a 13 million dollar budget It made 30 million.

Yeah Well, see here's the one thing I here's

the thing I look at it because the time when

this came out I was 14 and I had a huge crush

on One of my dad's employees her name was Melissa

and she was ten years my senior so there's nothing

wrong with having a crush on an older woman and

you know it's one of those things where I I think

of movies like this like like this and I don't

know if I don't think you've done Big Fat Liar

on subcast I hope you never do it on subcast

because that movie is amazing too I look at Blank

Check as being the 90s version of what 2002's

Big Fat Liar was where it's a kid getting to

do what like blank check is what all of us as

kids wanted to do was just do our own thing you

know just just have everything we could ever

want to play with that's really what it is I

mean sure he wants he wants to be respected and

everything else but what I find unbelievable

about that movie is how he uses the Macintosh

technology to fool everybody. And I wonder how

I wonder how at the time in 94. I wonder how

Apple and Steve Jobs felt about this movie. I

don't know. I mean, the research they have, they

didn't say much. I know that it never showed

up on the news. Disney film project. They didn't

bring up anything. The only thing they brought

up was was that function speak talk, I believe.

You know, they were better. Movies and ideas

but the problem I mean even with home alone three

they tried to do this but with blank check The

kid is is talking through this thing as he sounds

like I smoked one too many cigarettes and now

I have this talk with us You know a voice box

that Ned does with South Park and and the fact

that in real life I understand that this kid

Wants to live on his own and he gets the blank

check and he gets the million dollars and he

spends it like crazy And and this has been discussed

on other Podcasts and viral videos as well. What

he's spending with that million dollars even

to buy the house Which is bizarre all the other

stuff. He would have been spending that money

in five minutes It's just I understand realistically

That's something a kid would want to do but rationally

it just wasn't chiving and as for big fat liar

That's a phenomenal movie if it ever does end

up on soapcast, which if it does, it will not

be because I bash it. If it's on soapcast, it's

because I praise it. I went into that movie with

high expectations and I left Big Fat Liar with

high expectations. It was a Frankie Muniz and

of course Paul Gimignani and even Amanda Bynes

who I miss and it was, that was probably one

of the more underrated movies. It felt like something

out of the 90s and it paid off. And it has a

great ending. And I love that line re -liked.

They told me to pick up this guy, but they didn't

tell me to pick up this blue man. They told me

I was picking up a little blue car. They didn't

say anything about a little blue man. It's a

great underrated classic. And to think, in 2002,

this came out and Spider -Man came out. Now to

think, nearly what? Ten no geez twelve years

later Or whatever it's gonna. Well. Yeah, yeah

twelve years later amazing spider -man 2 comes

out and the little blue man is Rhino I If only

he was chameleon with it with his rubber face

his personality Or he could have been electro

that would have made sense because electro is

blue, but you know That would have made so much

more sense But I had a lot more to say, because

I did get to guess on the in -depth. I have a

lot of problems, and the biggest problem I have

is why they feel the need to kill Gwen Stacy

because it happened in the comics. I've heard

stories that Marvel regrets ever killing off

Gwen Stacy. That people, ever since Mary Jane

showed up, and again, there have been discussions

and viral videos and whatnot. I don't know what

Mary Jane is like in the comics, but I know what

she's like in the movies. And in the movies,

I'm not impressed. I like Gwen Stacy. I like

Emma Stone. I don't like her because she's sexy.

I like her because she's sexy and fun. And even

though I think Mike Dodd brought up the fact

how... uh, Gwen Stacy had to flip a switch. Yeah,

because Peter Parker and Spider -Man, you know,

whatever the case may be, they can't be everywhere

at once. They need that, that, you know, that's

that sidekick, whatever the case may be, and

the voice of reason. And to me, that's what she

was. So, I think that that's gonna be irreplaceable,

and then we have to put a Mary Jane. You know

what? I'm gonna say it right now. Issue, I think,

500 of Spider -Man one more day? I praise...

Joe from writing that issue. Thank you. Good

sir for breaking up Mary Jane and Peter Parker

Give me Gwen Stacy You know what after reading

amazing Amazing Spidey 606 give me Spidey and

the black cat. Yeah, that's what I Know don't

give me the black cat from spider -man 2 though.

Don't don't give me that black cat From amazing

spider -man if that's what that's supposed to

be Amazing spider -man 6 number 606. Oh, yeah,

I know. I'm just you know, yeah No, it would

basically be Felicia Hardy from the 94 cartoon

series. Oh, yeah, Jennifer Hale. Yeah, definitely

exactly. Yeah, definitely But I do want to say

one more thing after watching the mason spider

-man 2 that The other thing is, that also felt

like a two and a half hour preview. Like, we're

just gonna rush. Here's the other thing that

I have a problem with comic book movies, and

I'm just gonna put this on a soap cast as well.

I feel that every comic book movie now is that

they have to build up towards a sequel. Like

the sequel's on its way. Don't worry. We're already

working on it. Wikipedia has assured you, the

audience, that even if this first movie sucks,

we're in the contract to do two more sequels.

Now we find out that Spider -Man 3 and 4 may

take longer. And that the spinoff of The Sinners

of Six is a -a coming, but we don't know when.

So they kind of shot themselves in the foot with

that. And I feel that this is why kids have ADD

because it just all that movie was was a two

and a half hour preview. I mean, see, the problem

I have with the amazing Spider -Man films is

they don't. There's zero continuity with them.

I mean, sure, it, you know, first film starts

off and it's not really zero continuity, it's

more so that it's. They give us stuff in the

trailers. and never pay off in the film. Like,

Amazing Spider -Man 2, all that stuff about Harry

and Peter talking more in depth about why Osborn

was after him never happened in the movie. It

was only in the trailer. Yeah, and that's the

other thing, too, is that they're doing this

with a lot of movies. It's like the saving of

the deleted scenes because they're so concerned

about putting in... Characters and substance

and the figuring that everybody is not, you know,

even though we're originally watching those trailers

They're more concerned about setting up the sequel.

Oh, well, we didn't put that scene in but don't

worry It's gonna happen in the sequel. I don't

want the sequel. I want to know what's happening

right now while I'm watching this movie I don't

I don't care about the sinister six showing up.

I don't care about you know you're bringing in

Harry Osborn and Norman Osborn who are probably

two of the most important people in the Spider

-Man universe and you just throw them aside and

not only that as much as people have problems

with James Franco he had more personality than

this guy who's playing Harry I just don't feel

anything for this one and as Chris Cooper or

you know he's a great character actor it would

have been interesting to see him I know People

love Willem Dafoe. I would like to see what Chris

Cooper could have done as Green Goblin. Yeah,

you know, as Norman Osborne specifically, I think

Cooper does a slightly better job than Dafoe.

You know, the whole thing with Willem Dafoe is

that stupid mask that... Power Rangers mask which

unfortunately I feel they could have used makeup

They could have done something All right, so

what? What are you hoping to accomplish out of

Hunnic Outcast podcast? Well Pretty much just

still trying to get an audience as I said, I

enjoy the grab bag gimmick. I hope to accomplish

At least what I'm taking each and every episode

whether I'm discussing Godzilla movies or you

know other Japanese culture movies because I'm

trying to branch off from Godzilla. There's only

about 26 somewhat movies including the brand

new one that just came out I'm trying to get

people Into the culture and the society of what

Japan is trying to do because what I love about

the book Japan America The authors brought up

something else that's interesting with even though

anime or at least you know with Pokemon and yugioh

Yeah, they are card toy s commercials toy attic

He does bring up something like Spirited Away.

He loves the fact that it's not something like

Shrek where they're so concerned about pop culture

references or trying to talk in today's lingo.

They're trying to tell a story. And I'm trying

to branch off from a Godzilla movie and talk

about other Japanese movies that I'm starting

to appreciate and trying to... Tell people what's

out there and what else could come from Japan

movie wise TV wise history wise with soap cast

I try to accomplish just Something that I don't

think could be done, which is an articulate rant.

No, it's not easy But I try not to just go up

there and rant and rave like a complete and utter

lunatic I'm what my points are trying to go across

with something like the mouse that ward As I

said, Disney Film Project, they like to do family

-friendly, which is great. I'm trying to do...

Non -family friendly so much like the PG -13

and the rated are like the affiliates and with

something like Shut up and take my money, which

is another show. I'll be working on down the

road Reviewing stuff that I'm just making insane

purchases and why like as you know Batman 66

is finally coming out on blu -ray DVD And there's

that special limited edition sets where we're

gonna get the hot wheel Batmobile and trading

cards and whatnot and of course I said is a hundred

eighty nine dollars well I'm gonna justify why

I want to spend that money and review it and

Also with the Batman 66 action figures like they

came out with an egghead action figure I'm gonna

I bought that figure and justify Why I bought

it and and my review system of course is like

zero to two. It's going on eBay Two and a half

to three and a half May have had a little buyer's

remorse, but I'll deal with it and three and

a half to a five Would be shut up and take my

money and for the again action figure right now

I think it's going to be a solid five out of

five because it is Vincent Price and There is

a lot of love that goes into that action figure

the articulation Design of the suit. It's not

just hard plastic. You know with toys back I

mean this is a toy that you don't want to take

out of the box This is a toy that you really

want to keep in the box and preserve There's

a lot of detail towards his suit and the face

paint as well as another action figure I picked

up the brain gremlin from gremlins 2 I have not

taken out a box the way the paint job is done

the accessories that the action figures come

with with the brain gremlin the the brain hormone

test tube, and the book of civilization. I mean,

these are things that I want to hold on to. And

these are the collectibles and the justifications

of whether or not they should be kept or go on

eBay. And the final one that I'm going to be

discussing is a Star Wars Disney playset, where

it's Mickey Mouse as Luke Skywalker. Pete is

Boba Fett. He's inside the Sarok Peppa because

he's so fat he can't get in. Minnie Mouse, she

is Leia in the slave costume and Goofy, of course,

is Han Solo and Pluto is Chewbacca. And this

was a Disney World exclusive because this is

when, you know, Lucasfilm was sold to Disney.

So, I enjoy that little. That's also something

that's going to be reviewed. As for any other

podcast that I try to break down and discuss,

it's just going to be not just thoughts and opinions,

justifications to get more people into said culture

because it's not just... The 21st century to

me is more about acceptance. It's bizarre that

back then, people have asked me, what is Hunnic

Outcast? And back in 1997, I was friends with

someone who was into the goth culture. So we

tried to put together this magazine on the culture.

And I came across a thesaurus on Strange, and

the word hana came up. Outcast is something I've

always been, and that's just where it stuck.

As for outskirt, he just showed me parts of Staten

Island that I didn't even know existed. So that's

pretty much where that all comes from. But it's

just that since combo conventions weren't so

big in the 90s, they've become bigger now, especially

since there's corporate and non -corporate. So

it's just helping people understand why we love

combo, because it's not just because of collecting

toys. It's how artistic we've become. And I feel

that that's pretty much how to send the message.

It's not just something like Big Bang Theory

Well, I have this playset. I'm gonna keep it

on my shelf for years No, there's a reason why

of what inspired me to watch Batman What has

inspired me to try to write my own Batman comics?

What has tried to inspire me to draw and so on

and so forth? Yeah, absolutely All right, let's

see here what What do you have coming up in the

next couple of weeks well show well I Tried to

do a theme much month, which works pretty well

I have come across a co -host Wyatt Jones who

also shares a love with Japanese culture and

non so we actually put together a giant robot

month and we discussed The Transformers movie

that came out and we did a Bayformers versus

Transformers We've discussed the Ultraman TV

series we Also discussed since you know, July

23rd was Batman Day We discussed 37 of my favorite

Batman villains mainly because for this year.

I'm 37 years old So I'm playing with the 37 gimmick,

but for the month of August right now. I'm going

back to discussing a a Japanese monster that

seems to have some great public relations. He's

a friend of all children and on Mystery Science

Theater 3000, he's a turtle that's really neat,

a turtle that's made of meat, Gamera. And we

were discussing the Gamera movies of the 1990s

that people kind of forgot about because when

they think of Gamera, they think of the Gamera

movies on MST3K. And we will be discussing the

non -RIF Gamma movies, but there are three of

them that came out in 1996 1997 and 1998 Although

in America and Japan they came in at 95 here.

They came out in 96 97 and eight, but they're

on blu -ray and they're reasonably priced and

they're actually You know, even though Godzilla's

gotten a reboot, Gamora may get a reboot in 2015,

and he got one in 1996, and they're pretty good

movies. So we're gonna be discussing those, and

in September, Toho is releasing several movies

on Blu -ray, including Rebirth of Mothra, which

back then, and by back then I mean a few months

ago, the third... Rebirth of Mothra movie was

out of print and it was being sold on eBay for

insane prices. Now it's being released on Blu

-ray. We've decided to put together a Mothra

month. We're going to be discussing the original

Mothra, Godzilla vs. Mothra, Rebirth of Mothra,

and of course the reboots of the 90s Battle for

Earth and All Monsters Attack. For October, we

haven't really decided so much yet, but we do

think we're going to be doing for how a week,

which is something I tried to do last year, where

I took a week and I decided to discuss the scary

story astrology of the 80s. This year, I think

I'm going to do another zombie month and probably

discuss the Marvel zombies comic book series

and the Return of the Living Dead novel. realization

of the movie which is much different than the

return of the living dead movie that we saw in

the 80s there there are there are two different

versions and You're gonna hear the non comedic

version of that. So and in 2015 we will be discussing

the original gamma movies if they are coming

back if not We still have, we discussed Mechagodzilla

because that one was out of print, but we are

going to be discussing the other Mechagodzilla

movies that have been around and Astro Boy and

we got a plenty of good stuff coming in a few

months. So, are you going to be watching the

FXX like million -hour marathon of the Simpsons?

Oh, of course. I already... You see, here's where

it gets complicated. I have Verizon. We had Comcast

and then we have Verizon. I don't know... You

know, we have like literally a thousand channels

and then they become double and triple and then

we get music stations. I'm hoping, if not FXX

on cable... I'll get the app. I mean, I have

the DVD sets. I love the audio commentary. I

have not spoken to Rachel since May or June.

Unfortunately, I don't know how she feels because

I would really I will be watching and I'll probably

be reviewing the Simpson episode solo. It's a

shame. I love talking to her about those episodes,

but she doesn't like anything past season, I

think. 15 or 20 she gets to a point where it's

just like the Simpsons just won't die But I can't

wait to talk about that crossover episode that's

coming up a family guy it I've seen the five

minutes of it. It looks interesting so and of

course I'm now gonna be writing for geek cast

radio network, which I'm stoked about so I'm

actually working on a review on the Howard the

comic books because Howard has a brief cameo

at the end of Guardians of the Galaxy. So the

comics, there are 27 I believe, and 17 have been

released on Comixology. So I picked them up,

and next week I'll be reviewing on the website

on Keycast Radio Network my thoughts of the Teenage

Mutant Ninja Turtles movie that's coming out

next week. So yeah, and then I think why aren't

I going to be discussing like we did with bayformers

Bay hurdles versus classic turtles Okay, now

stop right there They are not his turtles. They

are Libsman's. Libsman is the director. Bay is

only the producer. It's not just you. I love

talking to you, dude. I'm sick of everybody in

general saying that they're Michael Bay's teenager.

If they were Michael Bay's teenager, he would

have a giant sign under him saying director.

His company is just producing the thing. I'm

so sick of the internet blaming Bay for the damn

turtles. It's not I'm sure he's had influences

over Jonathan Libsman, but this is Libsman's

movie Well, I mean look at his track record.

Oh my god. Well Megan Fox though. I don't know

I don't understand the point of her being April

Neal, but the tour I will say one thing though

about the turtles. I am impressed with them I've

watched a few scenes. I am actually stoked to

see this movie The only thing that I don't like

is when they're in the elevator and they're dancing

to the music. That feels a little bit strange.

Yeah, that is very... I think what they are trying

to do there is they're trying to... No, what

I was saying was I think that what they're trying

to do there is that they're trying to mimic the

elevator scene in Spider -Man 2. Hello Hello,

I'm still I still got my ticket. Yeah Yeah, I'm

here What I was saying was I think what they're

what they're trying to do is they're trying to

mimic the scene from spider -man 2 in the elevator

Possibly I am impressed with splinter as I said,

I'm very impressed with splinter and Will Arnett,

I'm sorry, I'm just not a fan of his. I've tried

to get him, and Whoopi Goldberg, I mean, what

is she doing in this? She is Bernadette Thompson.

Yeah, but come on. I mean, she would have worked

better as Arma, and... No, what? I don't know

about that, but okay. Or maybe Megan Fox, but

I'm sorry, Megan Fox, after what she said about

Spielberg, and I... I just don't get her. And

that's just me. But other than that, though,

I like what the turtles look like. I am impressed.

Even when Mikey takes off his mask and people

were comparing him to Shrek. No, I like that.

I like the fact that they're buffed up a little.

And Shredder? Well, we haven't seen much of him.

There are no rumors that he's a robot. Who knows?

They may go... I've heard rumors that Bebop and

Rocksteady will be in the sequel. So... Who knows?

I'm stoked with the comics. I love what IDW did

with them. Oh, absolutely, so So yeah, I mean

I have I have a lot of stuff cooking up All right.
