Hi, this is David Kaye, and you're listening
to Altered Geek. Geek. Geek. Geek. Geek. Welcome
to Altered Geek. I'm your host, Steve Megatron,
and joining me on this adventure into geekdom
is TFG1 Mike. I'm here, I think. I don't know
anymore. He's here. He's waiting. No. I'm through
with that crap. Anyhow, thank you as always for
listening to this episode, and be sure to comment
on the website, which hopefully works. So yeah,
we've not had an episode in a while. Yep. Been
like a month, month and a half. Somewhere in
that neighborhood. Netflix and toys. Oh my was
the last one. Yep. April. Yep. April. So little,
almost two months. But to be honest, there really
hasn't been all that much happening. And by the
time it happens, it's not relevant anymore. Yeah.
So I've been kind of compiling stories or, or
topics. And then I'm kind of waiting to see what
happens because some of them, it's kind of like
there really isn't anything pertinent going on.
Yeah. Related to it. And so it's, it's like,
why bother if it's just going to blow over trying
to finish other stuff and gets in the way and
other things and all that. Tis true. So anyways,
yeah, we've been we've been knocking out Podcaster
Meets World and all things Transformers and Studio
2009. And so, yeah, it's just and it's plus it's
just been crazy busy schedule wise. Yep. So.
So anyways, yeah, we have a few things that are
kind of interesting. One of them being Netflix.
And originally you brought this to to my attention
a couple of weeks ago that Netflix kind of changed
up how they look. Oh, OK, that's where you're
going first. I thought you were going to the.
other thing but okay yeah yeah yeah yeah i'm
going to the fun first the fun first right um
but no i mean they they've got this new kind
of interface they're trying to more or less do
something similar to like a feed or like a youtube
and it's the first revamp in almost what 10 years
something like i want to say maybe yeah what
technique yeah yeah 2015 probably was the last
time they did a full -on revamp of the netflix
.com website since they went to the more sliding
slidery slide this way slide that way which your
sleds this and that and whatever and here's here's
our top 10 blah blah blah so yeah it's probably
been about nine ten years since that happened
i think i don't know i could be wrong i mean
i've not been a fan of that slider anyway but
that's because stuff just auto plays and it's
kind of annoying yeah i don't like the auto play
Figure out how to turn off the autoplay. They
don't really make that all that easy, but. Yeah,
they're trying to. Create more of a curated.
Just better laid out professional look to it.
Yeah, which is nice. And then they've got their
own like kind of pop culture website, too, which
kind of filters into it. netflix is a joke no
um it's that uh tudum oh i've never heard of
this okay yes uh yeah so they they they have
a new kind of behind the scenes website it's
netflix .com slash tudum i don't know what the
name stands for uh however it's it basically
logs into your like you can log into your netflix
account and it ties in the whole interface together
with it based on your profile and it only lets
like if you have kid accounts it doesn't let
them connect to it it's only it's honestly adult
accounts yeah yes uh so what it does is it it
curates the website according to your preferences
i mean of course there's things in there too
that that are on there and you know they have
different staff writers and uh different types
of things on it but then they have you know kind
of interviews and what to watch and book to screen
or latest news of you know people and stuff that
are coming out uh and then they have some trailers
and behind the scenes stuff and then they have
a section that's called like based on what you've
watched yeah which is more tailored directly
to what you've watched um and then they have
things for shows popular now and then netflix
movies and then more stuff to kind of explore
through but then they they have like a top 10
a trending you know podcast a shop to buy gear
for certain different programs like they say
for you it's got like the electric state uh beverly
hills cop axle f um the Adam project, you know,
so, so it's got things that, that are Netflix
produced specifically on the, for you. And it's
very much curated for content created for Netflix.
Yeah. Which is cool. And I, I got the email about
it like a couple months ago and I was like, okay,
this is kind of interesting. Uh, a new way to
kind of facilitate through the, through the website.
Cause it kind of ties everything together. And,
uh, I feel like this new interface that they're
working towards is kind of tying in with that
further. Yep. Yeah. So I had logged in the other
day and I was like, Oh, I want to watch blah,
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Well, the easiest
way to do that without having to order a physical
disc, if a physical disc is even possible. specifically
it was either i forget which one i wanted to
watch it was either six underground or the atom
project because those are my go -to's of i just
want to ignore the world and just escape and
just get away from everything and i logged in
and i'm like oh it's kind of it's kind of like
when uh When you put on like the newfangled,
the current generation of like 3D glasses or
whatever kind of thing, it's like, holy crap.
It's like, you know, a whole new world, even
though that's another company and that's a different
song. And there was a big red battle cruiser
that, you know, came through the sky 23 years
ago. And there was a little blue guy in that
big red battle cruiser that stole the princess
away. And he should have got his own movie. Oh,
wait, he did. Sorry, I'm on ditch overload, folks.
But no, I logged in and I was like, wait, what
is going on? What did they do? Because, you know,
you get used to something for so long and you
think. They're never going to change it. They
found what they like. They found what works for
them. Their users are just going to accept it.
They're not going to, like, they can't have too
many complaining people. I mean, people pay for
it constantly. So you can't, you know, have too
many complaining customers if they keep coming
back and keep paying for it. So when I logged
in and I was like, hey. this is all new all different
netflix this is kind of weird and i pointed it
out to you and i was like what the hell did they
do because it took me a minute to get used to
it and i was like oh okay this this might take
me a couple of tries this might take me a couple
of times i might have to spend about 19 hours
or so exploring this and figuring it out and
whatever i didn't obviously because i was only
there to watch the one or two movie things but
it's one of those things where anything that
has changes that i have to get you like if it's
something that i use on a regular basis if it
has changed completely that i need to relearn
everything i will have to spend the time to do
like audition changes And I have to relearn all
of my editing that I've done for the last X number
of years. We're going to have lots of problems.
You all think podcasts are slow now. That's why
they've invented a lot of do -it -yourself kits.
I've been doing it myself since you showed me.
No, I mean, they have apps that do it for you
now. apps schmaps i want a human to show me and
then i can do it on my own which i already had
that happen 10 or 15 years ago apps get off my
lawn old man uh right so so yeah i mean we have
we have that but uh they're definitely going
more of a easy user friendly good they should
And I agree. Especially with the prices they
charge? Are you kidding me? I know, that was
some of the comments on the video of the tutorial.
It was like, oh, new shiny menu, raise the prices.
And somebody's like, oh, finally an interface
that's better than the last one. Yeah, exactly.
But kind of moving in that same vicinity, we
have... On another positive note, Sesame Street.
How positive this is? I think it's positive,
considering nobody else was going to pick it
up. It's positive, yes, but... It was going to
disappear to the ether because everybody else
that's had it since PBS couldn't afford it has
dumped it. I think, wasn't it Warner Brothers
that had it previously? I'm not even looking
up any links or anything. Yeah, that's what it
was. It was Warner. HBO Max opted not to renew
it. Netflix decided to pick it up. See, I didn't
even know. I thought it was still brought to
you, everybody, by viewers like us. I'm still
thinking this is public broadcast. Well, it'll
still be available on PBS. Yeah, I know, but
that was the whole thing. When we were kids,
when I was a kid 40 -something years ago, I want
to say 40 -something. Everyone knows I'm 45 years
old, but I say 40 -something because 1985 -86
is when I really remember when I was five and
six years old is really when I remember first
noticing Sesame Street when I was five and six.
So that's when I first started watching it at
the time. So 40 something years ago, I still
remember the beginning of that. Like when Sesame
Street came on, Sesame Street is brought to you
by PBS and viewers like you. And that was the
whole shtick was that PBS needed donations and
this, that, and the other thing. And it was public
broadcasting. It's kind of like Wayne's world
going from being in Wayne's basement to uh uh
um the as sphincter's office uh as sphincter
says what you know noah vanderhoffen's office
or whatever yeah it's a good thing that netflix
picked it up from hbo max and all that it is
it is it is it is but i just i i just can't get
it out of my brain that streaming services quote
unquote own sesame street and that kind of well
they don't own it okay it's just the rights to
show it or some yeah okay they're helping produce
it in conjunction with pbs and and i think they
see it as also a win because i mean yes pbs will
air it new which is different from what netflix
normally does with their exclusivity uh but what's
interesting is that i mean you'll be able to
stream all of it yeah like all of sesame street
on netflix which yeah from 1969 to now yeah which
is great because if you're like oh i'm a fan
of this era yep i can watch it you know and yep
uh but yeah the they're having granted i don't
know how much of the old catalog is going to
end up on there because i know that they've said
initially like 90 hours of previous episodes.
But reimagining an all new, you know, 56 season.
And then, of course, HBO Max, not W, you know,
Warner Brothers Discovery. I swear they're like.
The guy at the top, he has no idea what he's
got with any of his IPs. He's like crashing and
burning everything. I don't know what they're
doing over there. I have no idea what they're
doing. So you got originally when it first started,
it was HBO Go. OK, so we're going to have HBO
Home Box Office on the go. That's what for those
that don't know, for those who are living under
a rock or for those who may be too young, HBO
back in the day and still to this day, at least
as far as I know, originally stood for Home Box
Office. That was the point. was so you could
have your box office movies at your home on your
cable television in the 80s. So we had HBO Go,
and then it went to HBO Now. And then when the
whole streaming wars and everything else, and
it wasn't just Netflix and Hulu anymore, it was
everything else, it became HBO Max. HBO Max was
the new thing because Warner's had taken over
Cinemax, so Cinemax wasn't a thing anymore. I
honestly don't even remember. Again, folks, I'm
not actively looking up any information. I'm
just sitting here talking out of my ass. I don't
even remember what company owned Cinemax before
Warner Brothers bought them. I just know Cinemax,
HBO, Showtime, those were the three main cable
channel type premium movie things. So you had
HBO Max. Okay, fine. It's called HBO Max. I don't
care about the name of the damn thing. The only
thing I cared about was, ooh, it's purple. And
ooh, it has all the content that I want on it.
It has all the DC stuff. It has all the DC animated
stuff. It has all the DC live action stuff. And
then things started changing and they're like,
oh, it's going to switch to just being Max now
and no more HBO for you. And we're going to do
this and we're going to do that. And now they've
gone back on all of that and it's going to be
it's going back to HBO Max. And I'm just like,
wait, why? Well, it's funny because Cinemax was
bought by HBO in 1990. Which those that that
merger created Time Warner. right right and then
they yeah yep and then at aol time warner then
warner media then warner brothers discovery it
seems like warner can't survive without another
company no it can't uh it used to be able to
yeah more but that's that's why cinemax was rolled
into it was it was meant to be a compliment to
hbo as like like a maximum play you know yeah
pay type thing and then they now they're basically
one in the same but hbo has a stronger name yeah
uh and and i agree with that like i mean it's
kind of it's a better name yeah um but yeah i
i think that it's good though that getting back
to sesame street yeah that they're they're getting
to supply it to pbs and then also it's on netflix
for those that yeah you know want to be able
to access it i mean it does kind of suck that
it's only the latest 90 episodes which means
like not even a full season if they produced
you know want a new one every week or every you
know whatever um but uh yeah i don't know it's
still nice that the brand is continuing uh what
i did notice is somebody in the comments for
that were like you know it would have been a
no -brainer to align you know it's it's it's
disappointing that disney didn't do it because
they could have unified the muppets yes with
them again on one platform considering kermit
was a part of sesame street so i was really surprised
when netflix popped up I was surprised that Disney
didn't pop up and say, hey, we want it because
we have the other part of the coin of the puppetry
landscape of Jim Henson's stuff. I was really
surprised that it was Netflix that popped up
and said, we're going to do it. Who knows? Maybe
in... five more years disney on disney and netflix
will make a deal or something who knows well
you're funny you say that i'm i'm predicting
netflix buys disney oh hell no i no other way
around nope nope other way no netflix is not
big enough Netflix is not. Disney is crashing
and burning. I understand they're crashing right
now, and they are on fire. I get that, but they
will be able to put those fires out. Netflix
does not have enough in there. No, they don't
have enough capital. Give it time. Give it time.
They're continually growing. All right, folks,
come back to us in five years. What is this?
I'm making this prediction. Come back. Yeah,
okay. All right. Flip of a coin. Come back to
GCRN, the Geekcast Radio Network. Come back to
us in 2030, and we'll do an episode about this
exact same thing if news does happen either way.
We'll see who was right. Okay. Okay. I need to
mark this down on my calendar. Exactly. Be like,
AG episode. 442. This is Monday, May 26, 2025.
I'm just going to leave that right there. So,
we'll see. But yeah, that's that's going to be
interesting to see regardless how the Sesame
street thing plans out or pays out on that. Okay.
Yeah. It's going to be very interesting, but
I'm sorry if you are going to be producing new
episodes and if you're going to be spending out
whatever money they spent on it, hopefully part
of that deal is that you get the back catalog.
If you're getting the back catalog, why are you
only putting 90 hours on your streaming service?
And I'm wondering if it's a rights issue. Well,
yeah, I know, and we probably need to look more
in detail to it, but... I don't know. I just
wish, like, if you're really going to do that...
You should have more than just 90 hours. Maybe
you have select seasons. Maybe you have 10 seasons
and they rotate or something. I don't know, man.
I just don't think that only having 90 hours
of a... 50 -year, 56 -year television, historic
television show. I mean, we are four years away
from that show's 60th anniversary. So it sounds
like PBS, being still a key partner, will continue
to offer the show. And they may have some of
the back catalog. Okay. So, yeah, it sounds like
you can watch all of them on PBS Kids. So they're
just doing the past 90 hours worth. So. So it'll
be on both. It'll be on Netflix and it'll be
on PBS, but it'll be more of a selection on Netflix.
So with. global you know global streaming rights
to the new season so cool that's cool way to
go netflix saving childhoods uh but yeah moving
on from that thank you for saying moving on from
that because i was about to make a really really
bad 2007 joke Yeah, I could imagine. So what
are your thoughts on the new Superman film that
we've seen the trailers of so far? I'm looking
forward to it. That first teaser trailer with
Crypto, that looked really fun. The new trailer
that literally just dropped a couple days ago
or by the time you hear this, folks, a few days
ago, whenever it was. That is really fun. The
new trailer, I liked the new trailer. I like
Lois and Clark's antagonistic kind of back and
forth. What I really like about... What's the
guy's name? I just listened to a whole podcast
with my buddy Michael Bailey talking about it,
and he mentioned David... David something. I'm
trying to get to it, folks. I was just on the
page earlier this morning. You'd think I would
remember this. But the guy that plays Clark Kent
Superman, what I like about him is that he does,
yeah, David Cornsweat. Or Cornsweet. Cornsweat,
whatever. I don't know. Cornsweat. It's Corin's
sweat. Yeah, it's sweat. What I liked about him
and what I noticed is, and a lot of people have
noticed this, is that if you watch that trailer
and you watch the beginning of the two of them
going back and forth, he changes his voice. When
she's talking to him and she calls, you know,
calls him Clark and says, I want to do an interview
with Superman and I want to talk to Superman.
And then she addresses Superman. He changes his
vocal inflections. He's like, all right, Ms.
Lane, let's do the interview. Like, like he changes,
like he changes how he, it's not like it's similar
to how. The late, great, amazing, awesome Kevin
Conroy did with Bruce and Batman. But it's a
little bit... Not everyone's going to catch it,
but I caught it and a lot of other Superman fans
caught it. I like it. I'm not really sold on,
at least just in this trailer, I am not sold
on Nicholas Holt as Lex. Not yet, anyway. But
it was okay. I was not expecting the ending of
the trailer, but that was a nice little funny
moment at the end there. But overall, I'm excited
to see this. As per usual, folks, I will be waiting
until it hits whatever streaming service, because
I haven't been to a movie theater since 2018.
So in the town that I live in currently, I just
know. I'm not dealing with that, but I'm excited
for this. I'm very much excited for this. And
I love the, the new, the, the trailer theme from
this trailer, the music from this trailer done
by John Murphy and David Fleming. Love that music.
Cause it's a mix of whatever originality they're
doing to it and a mix of the Williams theme.
So absolutely love that. What did you think?
I know you're not really the. I'm not a huge
Superman fan, but I gotta say I'm very stoked
for this. It gives me the vibes of the 70s Superman,
but modern. So I'm super pumped to check it out
and see what they do with it and give this new
rendition a chance. I didn't dislike Henry Cavill.
I disliked how dark the last batch of DC films
were and nothing wrong with them per se. It's
just, I didn't enjoy them. Like they were good
for an initial watch, but not good for a rewatch.
Yep. So I liked about looking forward to this
though. Yeah. I'm very much looking forward to
this too. What I liked about Man of Steel, and
I think this is the only thing I really remember
of that movie, is how they twisted the plot around
and gave us the origin in the middle of the movie
instead of the beginning of the movie, and they
gave it to us in a flashback kind of thing. I
like the way how they played all of the stuff
for the Superman. here's your first superman
movie like here's your 78 or here's your this
or here's your that they gave it to us they just
gave it to us in different pieces within man
of steel and i agree with you it was very dark
and that whole era of dc was very dark but i
saw man of steel in theaters because it was a
superman film and i wasn't not going to see it
in theaters and cavill was a He was a good Superman.
He was an okay Clark Kent. I still prefer film
-wise, I still prefer Christopher Reeve over
anybody else when it comes to the movies. TV
-wise, live -action television -wise, as far
as someone who is acting the role of Clark Kent
Superman. I still really enjoy Dean Cain. Say
what you will about the man in real life. I don't
care. Fictionally, as a fictional character,
I like the way that Dean Cain portrayed Clark
Kent and Superman on Lois and Clark. The New
Adventures of Superman, which ran on TNT from
93 to 97. But yeah, no, this new Superman has
got me stoked to see what, and I'm really stoked
to see what gun, what James gun does with DC.
We saw what he did with Marvel, with the guardians
and say what you will about the guardians and
whatever else. But I liked some of that stuff.
So I'm interested to see what he does with the
DC characters and, you know, and, and they were
fun. Yeah. So, I mean, I'm. I'm looking forward
to seeing what he does. And he is very much taking
cues from the old. But I think that's also something
that's lost in modern cinema. I think we're kind
of needing some of these throwbacks to what is
old. You know, the old quote, seeds of the future
lie buried in the past. Yes. it's pertinent in
every sense of the manner, you know? So I think,
I think we're definitely on the cusp of kind
of a revival of old being new again. And I'm
all for it. So I'll be interested to see who,
cause I doubt they're going to keep patents in
as Batman, like it for this new. rendition of
james gunn like they may continue they may continue
the the stuff with pattinson as batman but i'm
assuming it's going to continue to be separate
i hope not and didn't the batman 2 just get delayed
or didn't it get delayed anyway or yep i'm i'm
going to make the uh assumption that it's gonna
get a a reboot. Yeah. I think it needs one. I
think I don't, I don't think we need another
one with patents and I think it served its purpose.
Yeah. I don't, I don't hate it or dislike it.
Cause like, honestly, I didn't watch it, but
it's again, just, I did watch it and it was interest
me. Yeah, I did watch it. It was okay for what
it was. My problem was, was the time length of
it. From what I remember. That's what I remember
from when I watched it. The performances were
good. He was an okay Bruce Wayne. He was an okay
Batman. He's not my favorite, obviously. But
it's 176 minutes. That's a while. Yeah, you think?
You know, so you got, you know. You get him as
Batman. You get Zoe Kravitz as Selina Kyle Catwoman.
You got Paul Dano as Edward Nashton the Riddler.
You got Jeffrey Wright as Jim Gordon. John Turturro
as Carmine Falcone. You know, you got Andy Serkis
as Alfred Pennyworth, which he was okay. I didn't
even know half the casting because it just it
had nothing to do with Pattinson. Yeah, I didn't
I didn't love what I was seeing of the Riddler.
I didn't love what I was, you know, honestly,
I'd had enough weird with Gotham that I was kind
of like this has that vibe and I don't really
care to see it again. Yeah, and I think I was
more enthused when it was going to be Ben Affleck
doing a Arkham like. Almost like an Arkham Asylum
type thing, you know, using the detective skills,
using the brute force, you know, having. And
I know that they did some of that in this. But
again, I just didn't didn't love the concept.
It didn't really matter about the actors. It
just. I didn't like what what I was seeing in
the trailers, and so I just opted not to see
it. But that's also the same reason I saw the
flash is because. yes i hated the actor that
played the flash and i thought it was just a
really poor movie but i liked keaton as batman
yeah so again that's so i think i think we're
at this point where it's almost better to just
to have gun redo it like start over and create
his vision for the dc universe so here's the
thing about the batman it is not a part of the
dceu aware of that i wasn't aware of it either
but and again take this with a grain of salt
but this is wikipedia the batman is intended
to be the first of a new batman film trilogy
and has established a batman focused shared universe
separate from the dceu reeves and clark refer
to it as a shared universe as the batman epic
crime saga key cast members yeah so they're wanting
a new batman trilogy type thing that's what that
was supposed to kick off i don't know what they
did they did create a shared universe with the
penguin show but yeah with the penguin and then
riddler year one uh which was supposed to happen
did it ever happen six issue limited series was
oh it was a comic it was a comic that they did
so it's cheaper to do a comic than it is to do
a movie or a series yeah sequel was announced
at cinema con in april of 2022 patents and returning
part two and january 23 prize the untitled sequel
is scheduled to be released in the united states
in october october 1st 2027 so we are just over
two years away from the batman 2 So we'll see.
I don't know. It's been pushed off, so we'll
see if it happens. Yeah. Again, not knocking
it. I know I don't care either way. Like, because
again, I've gotten to this point in my geekdom
that I'm like, if I don't care to watch it, I'm
not going to watch it. I'm not going to knock
it. I'm not going to bash it for people that
like it. I'm just not going to see it. And honestly,
it gives me a lot more peace than having a nerd
rage. That's right. So. But this film looks like
a breath of fresh air. I'm excited for it. Yeah,
Superman looks great. I'm happy that they were
able to use Superman. And it's funny because
Gunn was going to have, you know, a subtitle
to go with it. And then he realized that the
original Superman movies didn't. Well, they didn't
use, I think it was like The Superman or something.
No, it was Superman, Superman two, Superman three.
And then the only one that had a subtitle was
the fourth movie, which is Superman four quest
for peace. Yes. Yeah. Well, I was just saying
there's no, it was Superman, the movie. Oh, the
first one. And so he got, so he got away with
being able to call it just plain Superman. Superman.
Yeah. Because. the other one said the movie and
then the second one said two second third one
three and then fourth one four yeah and so there
hasn't been you know then there was superman
returns and man of steel so there really hasn't
been a plain superman movie as far as i mean
there was with the original one but yeah they
dubbed it the movie yeah um so it gave him his
out so he was able to keep it without the subtitle
on the moniker on it so yeah i don't know i'm
excited for it excited to see what happens um
hopefully it's good uh i'll definitely be checking
it out reviewing it so yeah absolutely then and
then getting to uh i don't know like i didn't
realize that cw was still doing anything me either
And apparently, I mean, I forgot that they were
doing a show with LeVar Burton. They're doing
Trivial Pursuit. Oh, that's right. Yeah. Yeah.
It's produced by Hasbro and it's CW Lionsgate.
And then he's he's the host of that show, which
that makes sense. Like, yeah, trivia and reading.
And I don't know. He just he kind of flows with
that pretty easily. And then I didn't realize
that Scrabble, another Hasbro production, was
a TV show. And that they had a different host.
The only reason it caught my attention is because,
one, I was on deadline just kind of checking
different entertainment news. And I saw that
Craig Ferguson from The Late Late Show, which
I was a fan of. Yep, me too. He was very charismatic
and fun and entertaining to watch. And so I saw
that he was replacing Raven Simone as the host
of Scrabble. And so now I'm interested now to
see how this looks. But I'm also interested to
see the Trivial Pursuit now that I remember that
Burton, Tim Burton, or not Tim Burton, LeVar
Burton is the, yes, Geordi, Reading Rainbow.
Don't take my word for it. I'm happy that he
finally got something fitting for him, even though
it wasn't Jeopardy. Yeah, absolutely. But yeah,
I'm probably going to check both shows out. Cool.
But yeah, I don't know how long Trivial Pursuit's
been going on, but I know that both it and okay
so it's it's opening its second season now and
scrabble is going on its second season in their
30 episode season so i'll have to check it out
because like i like trivia and i like trying
to guess stuff and plus i found that a lot of
trivia ends up playing into future stuff eventually
and it's not all unnecessary knowledge not all
of it anyway that's why my predictions come true
My brain puts it all together and then I just
speak it and it happens. Wow. And it annoys you
because then shows you like get canceled. You
killed J .R., you asshat. I didn't kill him.
I killed his show. The actor died of his own
volition. No. I'm not talking about the actor.
It's I know, but. The character. yeah the character
yeah but yeah no the um and no i i don't know
i'm yeah tv and films are are evolving in different
directions and it's interesting to see where
it's all going yeah where it's all going is it
seems to be um all streaming all the time pretty
much Like you just said, the CW still does stuff.
Like, I don't even have, like, I'm sure I can
find, because again, and I know I've mentioned
this on the show before, I have had a 4K television
since 2018. Only because when at the time Karen
and I got each other Christmas gifts that year,
she wanted a laptop, I wanted a new TV. I wanted
to future -proof myself as best I could. And
even though I don't know if the brand Sharp is
still making TVs, I don't think they are. I think
they do. Okay, anyway, the point is, is that
I have a Sharp 65 -inch 4K television. I've had
that for almost seven, eight and a half years
now. And I wouldn't even know where to... my
whole point even bringing it up is i wouldn't
even know where to look for a tv tuner on the
thing because all of it is like plugged into
my set top box for for xfinity and whatever else
and on the set top box is like app this app that
you know like i've got an app for that exactly
and honestly half the time like and we i've talked
about this before on on on our lovely altered
geek show here that we have you have such nice
nice accommodations around here in this podcast
uh we've talked about this before where i don't
really watch stuff just to watch it i watch it
to podcast about it so you're not going to catch
me watching insert show name here insert movie
name here just for the hell of it like yeah i
mentioned earlier in the show about six underground
and the atom project We had already podcasted
about those, but I had been watching those movies
multiple times on repeat before. Like, as soon
as I saw the two movies of those, I was like,
okay, I can rewatch these. These are rewatchable
for me. So yeah, it's just one of those things.
But yeah, I mean, I wouldn't even know where
to look to find the rabbit ear version of. tv
antenna this or tv antenna that on on my tv wouldn't
even know so i wouldn't have even known that
there was still stuff on actual television channels
other than news so i i did notice because like
there are some shows i was interested in checking
out or at least i was watching uh have you ever
seen suits yeah i've seen bits and pieces of
it i've seen through the first season Of the
original. Yeah, and it was pretty good. It was
it's it's a good show, but it's not really my
favorite show that USA has done. Yeah, I mean,
it's not my favorite either, but I enjoyed it
for what it is and just because of what it is.
And then I like the character interactions and
the actors portrayals. And then they tried to
launch Suits L .A. yeah which just got canceled
yeah which had steven aml and they were trying
to do a different spin on it like a spinoff and
then they brought in a couple of other actors
who were major players in the original and yeah
they um it it couldn't remain no on its own it
which you know i mean it sucks because yeah they
and I see complaints too. People were like, they
should have used a different, you know, an original
theme song and not reused it or given it a different
name or, you know, just, you know, not trying
to shoehorn it in with the original, like doing
something. Yeah. Just giving it a new name and
just new, you know, not trying to write on the
coattails of the original. And, and that's, that's
where people are saying it screwed up. But honestly,
probably the TV is getting so cutthroat anymore.
Oh yeah. TVs. I mean, TV has always been cutthroat.
It's always had to be cutthroat, but it's gotten
so much worse now. Yeah. And yet you have to
be cutthroat in television. It's not like the
movies where you can release a movie named this
or a movie named that, or, you know, what's the,
and I'm just using this as an example, folks,
I'm not saying anything about. I'm not commenting
on this fact, but I saw this somewhere earlier
today. Nope, that's not it. Where is that photo?
I know I screenshotted that. Where'd it go? Okay,
I guess it didn't do that. I saw a photo about
Hallmark movies where it's like listing all these
things and it was like, The same this, the same
that, the same that, blah, blah, blah, down to
like 7 million Hallmark movies. It was like two
writers, like the same two writers. The same
plot in every movie. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You probably saw the same damn thing I saw, but
I don't know where that screenshot went. It went
somewhere. Oh, I'm looking in the wrong. Am I
looking in the wrong? Yeah, I'm looking in the
wrong spot. Where'd it go? I don't know. Anyway.
But yeah, it's just crazy. Well, and then I was
watching the revival of Night Court. Uh -huh.
Partially because it had Big Bang Theory ties,
but it also had one of the original actors. Yeah.
And then occasional reprisals as ones that were
still alive. were able to you know be on it um
and then they made it to the the end of the third
season and had brought in um simon helberg yep
in the final episode yeah and what the hell are
you doing here that was her line Yeah, I haven't
actually seen the end of the season, sadly, yet.
No, it's fine. That was in the promotion. That's
not a spoiler, but that's what she says to him.
That's the first thing she says to him. What
the hell are you doing here? But, yeah, I was
interested to see that, but I did enjoy the show,
the new cast, and I don't know. I felt like it
was a good show and it was entertaining enough.
Yeah. I enjoyed it. And then, you know, with
John Larroquette. John Larroquette, yep. Larroquette,
yeah. I liked his part in it. And then he actually
did a reprisal of his Star Trek 3 Klingon in
an episode. I don't know. I enjoyed that show.
And then we got Shifting Gears. Got renewed for
season two. Yes, that's good. Which I'm excited
about, and I'm glad because I like Tim Allen.
So that's entertaining. What boggles my mind
is we get shows like Mr. Beast's Beast Games.
That was a Netflix thing. No, it was Amazon.
Oh, Amazon, that's right. But they're they're
eyeing a two season renewal for it. And Amazon
can afford that. Well, I know they're they're
casting for season two. And I don't know if you
know this. I just for fun, I decided to try and
go through the application process. Oh, just
I didn't actually submit it because I saw. they
basically expect you to not have a life not have
a communication with family not have anything
like you're basically like they own you and that's
what he wants like that's the contract like they
literally you go and you're gone for six months
in this thing and like you're not you're not
able to have like your phone you can't have social
media you can't talk to your family like you
and i'm sure they do that for a lot of like shows
but yeah some of it was a little weird it was
like okay like you can't even like see your kids
or you know it just i was kind of just like this
this is kind of weird on multiple levels and
so i was just like um yeah uh but it's at one
i can't stand the dude he makes I know he makes
all of his money off of like brand deals and
the show and his YouTube channel really he doesn't
but I don't understand the appeal of this dude
I don't either like in the comments even it was
people were like more psychological torture of
desperate people and then another one's like
have they settled the lawsuits from season one
yet And then it says maybe if they do another
season, they can surround his talentless buddies
with people who understand real production. I
don't know if he's hiring his talentless buddies
or if they're actually his talentless friends.
I don't know. I don't know any of that. I'm just
it just seems really, really. Odd. Yeah, I don't.
I don't, I'm not a fan of any of his stuff just
because I find him obnoxious. Yeah. And then
they, you know, basically they're having a, you
know, like season one, it says they had a thousand
players competing for a $10 million cash prize
in season one. And it had 50 million viewers.
And so they, I mean, they are doing two more
seasons, but. I just, yeah, I don't know. It's
I'll probably never watch any of his stuff just
because I don't want to support him because I
just, I don't, it has nothing to do with like,
it has nothing to do with like his fame or anything.
It just, I don't like what he stands for. I don't,
I don't have interest in watching the content
cause I don't think it's like, I don't know.
I have better things. I'm again, i mentioned
earlier in the show most of the time i'm watching
stuff so i can discuss it on a podcast i am not
going to consume mr beast content because i know
we are never gonna like this is probably one
of the only times we've ever discussed him i
know we've discussed him in the past a couple
of times here or there but like you're not gonna
folks if you're listening to the sound of my
voice i guarantee you You're not going to get
a whole series here on the Geekcast Radio Network
about Mr. Beast. You're just not. So if you're
waiting for that, you're going to be waiting
for a long -ass time. Like, never. That's the
point. I know. I'm messing with you. Did you
hear that they're already working on a Top Gun
3? What did we just say in Studio Episode 39?
No, don't, and stop. yeah so apparently Tom Cruise
and yeah he's saying it's already in you know
kind of in the bag adding that here he knows
what the story is and Christopher McQuarrie is
looks like working on a new new script for it
for the third one We did talk about this. Yeah,
I remember. But like. Why? Like, I just saw like
I've seen two different reels or two different
clips of Mr. Cruz late lately after we did that
that episode, because since we did that episode
of Studio 2009, obviously Mission Impossible,
the final reckoning has released released May
23rd, 2025. And he released a clip or somebody
interviewed him and whatever. And he said, I
can. I safely say, I highly doubt I will ever
retire from doing movies. I will be doing movies
up until the day I die, et cetera, et cetera.
You know, the usual stuff, you know, the year.
And I mean, the guy's what 50, 60, however old
he is and look at the shape he's in and blah,
blah, whatever else. And Hey, as long as he can
continue to do it great for him, whatever. But
you look at his career and I have, we all have.
And. you know how about you not necessarily change
it up but like do different stuff don't just
well he's becoming a bruce willis and a uh arnold
schwarzenegger very quickly not really well i
mean i'm saying with i mean he's kind of shoehorning
himself into only action stuff now yeah okay
yeah but and i mean arnold's kind of jumped over
to kind of action comedy stuff and Netflix and
something he's doing he's doing some different
stuff and then Bruce Willis is obviously retired
but yeah yeah there's also the two of them have
also floated ideas of making a Tropic Thunder
to to with Les Grossman which was Tom Cruise
which I didn't know when I saw it the first time
It was it was great, though. I was like, OK,
this is cool. When when it did the credits thing
and it showed his name, I was like, no. And then
like because I noticed that when I was at home
and I paused it, I was looking at it. I'm like,
it totally freaking is. But they're also talking
about doing a Days of Thunder, too. Oh, no, no,
it's been it's been has it been 35 years? I mean,
they did. They did Top Gun after, you know. I
know, but that's not the point. It's been...
Literally, this is the 35th... Like, again, another
Studio 2009 episode I plan on doing. It's been
35 years since Days of Thunder. No, come on,
man. I do like the comment under that article,
though, on Deadline. It says, sure, why not?
There's nothing else creative or original anymore.
I mean, it's not wrong. It's not wrong. Not at
all. I agree. I mean, I wouldn't, I would still
watch it. Yeah. But like we said, folks, go over
to, if you want to, if you want to hear Steve
and I's full discussion on Top Gun 1 and Top
Gun Maverick, go over to Studio 2009, episode
139. You can hear it there, but I'll say it here.
How Top Gun Maverick ended, we felt that that
was enough. Now, granted, no one's going to listen
to us as far as like. whatever they do in hollywood
but as fans of the movies is what we liked what
we saw like we felt that the stories were told
is there like as far as like uh mavericks as
far as toms like if you want to tell another
story you want to do a top gun three and have
it focus on on rooster sure great but really
maverick was kind of rooster start rooster story
anyway the start of it anyway And Maverick was
just kind of there. I don't know. I just... I
want there to be... That's the thing. That comment
about how there isn't any originality. Absolutely.
We've been saying that for years. But I want
there to be. I want somebody to come in and create
something new and give us new shit. Because the
problem is, they're just going to keep regurgitating
the same old shit. And they're going to keep...
doing it and doing it and doing it until it's
not so well anymore like people would oh god
these people that go to see lilo and stitch the
live action one the new one obviously i haven't
seen it yet because i don't go to the movie theaters
because it's just not feasible for me to go to
the theaters in the town that i live in but i've
seen enough clips of it and i know It basically
adapts the 2002 animated original movie that
Disney did back in 2002. It adapts it, but it
also changes it for live action. And there aren't
going to be any spoilers here, folks. You don't
have to worry. I'm not going to say anything
that's going to be too spoilery. But it changes
a few things. There's one or two things missing.
There's a couple of scenes that are missing.
It changes a few plot elements here or there.
But it changes it because of the format. It doesn't
change it because they're trying to ruin your
childhood. It changes it because it's not fucking
animation. It changes it because it's live action.
And yes, they only had a $100 million budget.
And most people think, oh, $100 million budget.
That's a lot of money. It is a lot of money.
But they put, I guarantee you. Most of that $100
million budget was put into Stitch himself and
the marketing. Because the marketing for this
movie, oh my God. Just like the marketing for
the first animated movie, I mentioned it earlier,
about the Aladdin ad, about all the animated
ads that they did with Stitch crashing into all...
He goes into Aladdin, he goes into Beauty and
the Beast, he goes into Little Mermaid's movie.
And he just crashes all the movies and everybody's
line is, why don't you get your own movie? And
so he goes out and gets his own movie. And that's
how Lilo and Stitch has his own movie. So my
thing is, when it comes to it is, look, the live
action Lilo and Stitch is an adaptation of the
original animated film. it changes a few things
like the, and I know everyone has seen this clip
because I've seen this clip a million times.
Cause I love this clip, the clip where, and I'm
pretty sure you've seen this too. So it's not
going to be a spoiler for you. And I know you
don't really care about spoilers for this. Cause
it's not, Oh my, I'm pretty sure Lilo and Stitch
is not your end all be all. You don't, you don't
have a, okay. So, and again, I'm sure you've
seen this already. Anyway, it's the clip where
they're at work. Why do I have to be at your
work? Cause somebody got kicked out of hula again
or whatever. So she drags him over and stitches
on the table and blah, blah. And you hear the
boss in the background, mommy. And I probably
didn't sound anything like the guy, obviously,
but she drags stitch over, puts him in the child
seat and does the whole thing. And he does the
whole cutting of his collar with his claw. And
he just starts barking and Lilo turns to him
and sees that he's not in the chair anymore.
So she walks over to the bar and he's got the
gun. And bam, bam, bam, bam, bam, bam. That's
an homage to Lilo and Stitch too. Stitch has
a glitch. I love that clip. I love how they used
it in the live action of the original adaptation
of the original animated movie. I think that's
so cool and so fun. My whole point in saying
any of this is that you still have the 2002 original
animated movie. And you have this new version
that is probably going to get a sequel because
they're already talking about it. They're already
thinking about it. They're already this. They're
already that. The movie's made like the biggest
Memorial Day weekend box office ever. every at
you know this we've talked about movies that
have done like every time a movie comes out on
on on any weekend that it ends up being the number
one movie in the world you know i forget who
does the the voices now for it but it used to
be don lafontaine that did it the number one
movie in the world is a lilo and stitch or whatever
yada yada So it's like, yeah, it literally is
the number one Memorial Day opening of a movie
in history. So I guarantee you they're going
to either adapt the original sequel, Stitch Has
a Glitch, or they're going to do something where
they're maybe going to come up with an original
plot with the... how the story came about at
the end of this current 2025 version and i'm
okay i'm good we still have the animated stuff
so without again without looking if i remember
off the top of my head the continuity of the
lilo and stitch animation is 2002's lilo and
stitch you have uh lilo and stitch 2 stitch has
a glitch Stitch the movie, which technically
came out before Lilo and Stitch 2. But Stitch
the movie lines up with Stitch the animated series.
It sets that up. OK. So and then after that is
Leroy and Stitch, which concludes the animated
series. Animated series is 126 episode season.
Hmm. and the it's all good it's all fun i remember
watching all of it i plan on watching re -watching
all of it and doing tooncast episodes on all
of it so at some point with somebody i don't
know who i'm gonna do it with because i i mentioned
doing it with somebody i just don't remember
who the hell it was i don't think it was you
but i don't remember But I'm excited, man. I'm
excited that Lilo and Stitch is kind of back
in the spotlight kind of thing. And like I said,
I am perfectly... Me? Get bent out of shape over
something getting changed in a movie plot for
a different format? No. When has that ever happened?
I wonder. But yeah, Lilo and Stitch. It looks
so fun. And they have three... Is it three people?
Yes. Three people from the original film reprise...
Well, three people return from the original film.
So Tia Carrere is the social worker. She was
the original voice of Nani in the original film.
Interesting. The original guy that voiced...
I want to make sure I have this right. Where
is his name? No, that's... Where is the boss's
name? Jason Scott Lee. who plays the boss that
I mentioned earlier, where he goes, Nani! Jason
Scott Lee was the original voice of David in
the original 2002 film. And then Amy Hill is
the new character, Tutu, who is the older, grandmotherly
-looking lady that you see in the trailers. Amy
Hill was the voice of the neighbor lady. the
lady watering the plants and stuff or whatever
in in the animated films so you have so they're
they're they're doing things and plus chris sanders
has always been the voice of stitch he'll always
be the voice of stitch and he wants to do that
voice for as long as he can because that's just
his voice when he puts it on uh and i i love
that i love that that guy has been playing that
voice in all of any that's the coolest thing
to me with this is that and you know this but
like sometimes if they can't get peter cullen
to do something for like an optimus prime something
else not not an action figure but like an optimus
prime plushie or this or that or whatever kind
of thing they'll get somebody else to do it or
at least that's what it was in the old days like
If they couldn't get Peter to do it, they would
have. This guy has been doing Stitch's voice
in the parks, in the this, in the that, in the
rides, in the whatever for 23 years. So the fact
that he got to come back and be the voice as
always, I'm over the moon with Lilo and Stitch
stuff. So I'm excited for it. so yeah yeah it's
not one of those films i'll probably see just
because i saw the original animated but i i do
like the fact that um the original actor can
come back i'm still gonna watch it just because
but like again once it hits disney plus is when
i'll watch it because if i'm already paying for
disney plus i might as well watch the thing so
What else we got? Show. Got Bungie stealing artwork.
Seems to be a pretty consistent thing with large
corporations, right? Yeah. You know, first Monster,
now Bungie. Yeah. I think what it boils down
to is These people end up in these positions
and then they're like, hey, that's a great art
piece. It's just swiping. They can't afford to
fight back. It's funny because this particular
one. This Scottish artist posted on social media
her work that and had appeared in the marathon
alpha. Of this this game, the shooter game, but
it appeared without her knowledge or permission.
it says its environments are covered with assets
lifted from poster designs made by this individual
and in an interview says that she was suspicious
that her art may have been used without her permission
when Bungie first revealed the game in 2023 in
her thread Fern posted side -by -side comparisons
of her work and what happened in Marathon or
what appears in Marathon the game and posted
on X in 2024 since she hit a reference to the
control plus alt plus delete webcomic loss in
her designs a year later a player posted a screenshot
from that game from that in the game that includes
a coded reference to the comic and that they
were made aware and did not know the artwork
was stolen and that a former employee was responsible
for adding it I love how like, oh, it it's it
won't happen again. And, you know, I don't know.
A lot of these companies are they're either doing
this or they're going hardcore into AI. Yeah.
So it's like it's like the other steal from somebody
that made it or they use AI to steal it for them
and regenerate it. Speaking of AI, though, we've
seen some netzoid stuff. Google's got VO3 AI
video generator. I watched one where it had somebody
driving a car getting hit with all kinds of stuff
and then street cracks and getting thrown from
the car and adding soundtrack music and everything
else. And then you showed me earlier. baby sheldon
oh god i okay so this is more of me asking the
audience why we need this so it's not just baby
leonard and baby sheldon it's not just because
of the big bang theory clip but i saw one with
knight rider where they did baby michael knight
baby bonnie and baby like Why do we need baby
AI of television characters of them reenacting
scenes or what? That's Mike. Why is this a thing
now? I don't understand. I don't. If you want
to watch the show of the. I think it's because
it's entertaining that they grafted the faces
to the actors. So you have the facial expressions,
but it's a baby doing it. OK, because like I
find it entertaining from that standpoint, like
if I'm watching, you know, the child, you know,
that looks like Leonard and Sheldon in the facial
expressions look just like Galecki and, you know,
I mean, in Parsons. And so it's it's entertaining
from that standpoint. Like they basically took
the actor, shrunk them down to an old man, baby
version of. They're adult selves. And so in that
regard, it's, it's funny because if you know
how a baby reacts and then you see how an adult
reacts and then you mix it and it's humorous
from that standpoint. Okay. But it's, it's good
for a short in the tooth joke. I don't see this
being something like long lived. Yeah. Okay.
All right. it can be funny it's like one of the
meme videos that kind of go around but i don't
problem is i see i've seen too many of them in
a short amount of time on instagram reels like
people keep uploading like every time i scroll
like every fourth video is one of these videos
and i'm like okay i'm kind of over this yeah
i mean i can get it from that standpoint honestly
i looked at the other ones and this guy's page
the only ones that are funny to me are the big
bang theory ones i mean there's there's another
one on there where uh it's got uh it's from somebody's
podcast like video show um probably it's well
it's not joe rogan it's a comedian but it's got
bobby lee oh okay uh and then they've got this
other one and they're they're doing you know
like um what is a you know what is a you know
they're like a dog sounds like you know understands
english what are they you know how did how did
they say how do they say i saw that they're like
how do they say bow wow and in spanish and then
they go you know they they go what's a mexican
dog sound like they go like a bark bark you know
and then they they do the one for um for china
and they're like help like because like they
eat dogs you know so well so so that one was
funny because of the nature of the joke yeah
like it it had nothing to do with the faces it
was just the nature of the joke and so i feel
like i feel like you almost need the context
of whatever it is to make it funny yeah and then
the baby thing is just the icing on the top okay
yeah so like i outside of that like but i could
see where it'd be very long in the tooth if you
just saw like three or four of them in a row
and you're just like okay i get it it's funny
well when you sent me that i actually i didn't
finish watching that clip honestly because as
soon as it was like oh what does a mexican dog
sound like and my first thought was uh cheech
marin as tito and he goes amen this is torture
chain me to the wall yeah yeah exactly that's
my first thought is like that's what this uh
mexican dog sounds like but yeah i mean that's
that's the kind of stuff i don't know i'm it's
kind of all over the place but it's weird the
content shift of of the instant content like
how crazy it it shifts between what we had 15
16 years ago what we have just hell just 10 years
ago five years ago what we have now crazy because
back in the early days of youtube it was all
everybody trying to get big youtube money with
stunt videos like here let me go skateboard off
the grand canyon and You know, as long as I live,
I get a million bucks from YouTube. Yeah, I know.
People have just, I don't know, it's just got
really weird out there. But no, I mean, yeah,
I think that about rounds up the AI stuff. I
think we need to move to something fun, like
physical releases of media. Yes, exactly. So
this is supposedly coming in the fall of 2025.
I saw two different dates. I saw the summer of
25. I saw next month on June 10th. And I've also
seen October 6th. But they are finally releasing.
They actually released it on Blu -ray, I think,
a couple of years ago. I think it was a foreign
set at the time. But they are finally releasing
Knight Rider. on high definition so high definition
4k ultra hd universal pictures home entertainment
plans to release on 4k blu -ray night rider the
complete series this release is scheduled to
arrive in the market in the fall just ride shotgun
with a mysterious crime fighter michael knight
played by david hasselhoff and the hottest car
on four wheels Kit, as they chase elusive criminals
in each action -packed episode, the heart -pounding
second season of Night Rider packs in even more
thrills? Huh? Why? What? Who wrote this description?
It wasn't me, because I would have not written
the second season on a complete series. Come
on, Blu -ray .com, do better than that. Jeez.
Man, Universal must have really screwed you guys,
because that's not a description I would have
written. But yeah, I first saw this. Knight Rider
Historians' Facebook page had posted this. And
then I guess they unposted it, because when I
shared it, it... Well, that's the thing about
Facebook. Folks, if you post something and then
somebody shares it... and you delete your post,
Facebook will be like, this page is no longer
valid. This page can no longer be found. 404
error, 404 error, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
But the news is out there. I am keeping an eye
on whenever this does come out, because I would
love to have this on 4K. I do know from the original
post I saw from the Knight Rider Historian's
Facebook page that it is supposed to come with
an all -new one -hour behind -the -scenes documentary
thing. I'm not sure. I'm assuming Mr. Hasselhoff
will be in it. I don't know if Mr. William Daniels,
who voiced Kit, will be in it because Mr. William
Daniels is 98 years old now. I don't know. I
don't know. I don't, I don't, I don't know if
they'll get Mr. Feeney back. Uh, probably not.
Hopefully they will. Hopefully even if they can
just get him in a, like, like on a, on a zoom
call or something, I can't even say Skype anymore
because Microsoft did Skype. They foobarred that.
Oh, foobar them. But yeah, I, when I saw Knight
Rider Historians post this, I'm like, wait, what?
ears perk up night rider shadowy flight into
the lone crusader dangerous world what what's
this huh because i was like like i barely even
like when they posted i was like i saw like the
top part of the thing i didn't even see what
the whole image was i saw 4k ultra hd and then
i saw his name and then i saw the the red and
i was like oh i was like oh okay so Yeah, kind
of excited for that. And, yeah. Because, honestly,
physical media, it's... I like having the physical
media stuff. I like being able to just put it
in and watch the stuff and not have to worry
about where I need... I was looking for something
the other day. I was going to watch something
the other day, and I'm like, okay, I know I bought
this. Which website or which whatever did I buy
it from? Because it wasn't streaming anywhere,
and it's only on DVD. It has never been released
on Blu -ray yet. And I'm like, how the hell has
this movie never been released on Blu -ray? summer
