Talking in Circles
Celebrating 100 Episodes with Fact or Fiction

About this Episode
How do we start hey, this is it's literally the
hundredth time we've done this I know Okay Hey
guys, this is Rob Paulsen and you're listening
to the Geekcast Radio Network. You are now on
the inside of what I like to call the circle
of trust. We are all connected in a great circle
of life. You know something Bert? I think you
and I are going in circles. It feels like we're
going in circles. The circuit is now complete.
When I left you, I was but the learner. Now I
am the master. Because it's a circle. Yeah, we
heard about the circle. Yeah, that's what a million
would say. Hey, this is Greg. This is Chuck.
And this is Dan. And we are Talking in Circle,
sponsored by the Geekcast Radio Network. The
podcast that is celebrating its 100th episode.
Yes, it's kind of crazy that we are making it
to all the way to 100. And in honor of 100, we're
actually going to go back to the beginning and
play the first game we ever played when we started
this podcast, Fact or Fiction. But before we
get to that, how's the week been going for you
guys? My week has been rather exciting because,
well, this this will actually be a Coming out
a little bit later, but we're recording at the
same night as our last episode But last week
has been exciting for me because it was Toy Fair
And that was held in New York City over Valentine's
Day weekend how romantic But uh The only thing
I really cared about at all was you know anxiously
awaiting the announcement for the new Marvel
Legends that would be coming out this year And
I was not disappointed at all Like they announced
all these new waves like there's two more Captain
America waves with some cool characters you get.
So honestly, we're starting to get some characters
that I didn't think we would get, but they're
releasing Red Guardian, who's kind of like the
Soviet version of Captain America, which is kind
of cool. And they have a man. They're really
digging deep, aren't they? Yeah. I mean, they're
still sticking with a lot of classic characters.
Like it seems like every lion has to have a Captain
America and Iron Man in it. Of course. I'm surprised
there's not a Wolverine and Spider -Man in each
one, too. Well, yeah, there's Spider -Man has
his own waves now. Like it's weird. Like there's
like Captain America waves, there's Spider -Man
waves, X -Men waves. And like some of them, like
when they're based on a movie. trend I'm seeing
is like they have to have three movie figures
and then they can have like four comic figures
in it and then usually like the usually the build
a figure is like comic based most of the time
but I think with the new Captain America wave
I think the build a figure is actually might
be a movie figure really which is interesting
I won't say what it is or what I've been hearing,
but I thought that was interesting. But also,
of course, with the X -Men apocalypse coming
out this year, they have an X -Men wave and there's
tons of great figures in that wave. There's a
new Cable figure, which looks phenomenal. I think
it's more of like, I think a modern version of
Cable, probably more how he appears in the newer
comics. And then they also have a new Iceman
figure, which looks amazing. A Jim Lee rogue.
Does Iceman look really gay? Now, yeah, I mean,
it's a little bit different from the Iceman figure
that I have from the Toy Biz line. The wrist
is bent. Yes, slightly. Comes with different
catchphrases. No. Has a little wilt. He. By the
way, not making fun of gay people, making the
fact the fun of the fact that Bendis ruined that
character. What hasn't he ruined to be honest?
No, the this one sort of has like ice spikes
coming out a different part like his shoulders
and like his head and stuff like that looks really
broad Yes, the crotch the ice crotch But yeah,
some really cool figures they have some Walgreens
is getting in on the action Walgreens has some
exclusives Funko pop exclusives Walgreens does
I heard? Yeah, I heard the CEO of Walgreens really
likes figures and stuff. Oh, yeah. Yeah, they
had a they had a couple of exclusives last year.
I think they had a they had an admin figure and
they had a agent venom figure and something like
that. But this year they're they're having a
namer figure, which looks really sweet. And they're
having a Jim Lee Punisher with the white headband
and everything from the 90s. Oh, cool. Yeah.
And he comes with like a big, huge rocket launcher
like the one Darryl used in Walking Dead the
other night. There's a lot of cool figures coming
out and I feel like a huge dork because I'm looking
at Toy Fair articles for toy releases, but they're
getting so good now. It's literally like poseable
statues. They're using 3D printing for... creating
the face sculpts and stuff on at least the movie
characters and stuff like they're taking actual
actors features, you know, in their software
programs and using 3D printing to create the
faces and stuff. And it's just it's looking more
and more like the actors. It's phenomenal. They're
cranking out some good stuff right now. It's
beginning to look a lot like the actors. Every
action figure you get. Now you're making up your
own songs, I'm impressed. Thank you. I've got
a little weird Ali Yankovic thing going on now.
And then and I will say, I'm excited for Greg,
even though he may not be getting them, but they're
actually coming out with Golden Girls Funko Pop
Vinyls. I'm not getting those. I'm sorry. Yes,
I did. I did send them to someone I know who
is actually into Golden Girls. And I've actually
gotten this person a couple of pops. So I kind
of sent that along as, oh, here you go. Here's
more pops that you can get. But yeah, I'm not
getting into that collection of pops. There's
there's already too many that. I wanna get that
are a little bit higher on the list than Golden
Girls, I'm sorry. I don't know. But yeah, I thought
that was funny. Nice, nice. I'm curious what
you think that build -a -figure might be. Will
you spoil it? I don't know, do you think I should?
Why not? You can't spoil a movie we haven't seen
yet. I'm afraid it'll spoil something for the
movie. Well, we haven't seen it, so I guess it's
just a guess. Okay, well, it's like my guess
what I've heard somebody else guessing is that
the this build a figure will be Civil War giant
man. I was watching a Funko pop periscope before
the podcast and they were people were constantly
asking for giant man pop figure and They're like
who's giant man and everything. So yeah Yes,
I mean I I know a lot of people haven't even
considered that option for the Civil War movie,
but that's something that we have to basically
consider, talk about, that that's a possibility
that that could be happening. You ruined it.
Geez, no, I'm just joking. That's why I was hesitant
to say it, but I'm like, I don't know. Everybody's
kind of thinking it, I feel like. It's just an
element of that character. Greg, how are things
going with you? All right, I'm getting high off
of this paint marker as I'm drawing the picture
for tonight. I'm sorry I'm it's kind of a theme
lately my Drawings, but it it went with the the
last episode so and we've been kind of talking
about a lot So sorry if it's the same thing all
the time for those of us Plus it's the one I'm
really good at drawing at the one character that
I'm halfway decent drawing so sorry for those
that don't know Each episode we record or each
that we record Greg draws a drawing and I throw
it on Facebook to check them out If you get a
Facebook in our Facebook page, you'll you'll
see them there. But uh, well he's going really
well I'm not the best artist in the world when
it comes to this kind of stuff, but I try my
best He's second best it's going well. I Was
kind of cool. Now is that with my work? I get
to work two days at home now out of the week
which is really interesting must be nice yeah
it's pretty cool it's uh it's like oh i gotta
call my wife let her know i'm on my way home
and open the door from my room and i'm out and
there you go so It's very cool, because usually
my drive to work can take anywhere without traffic,
like to 45 minutes. So at times it's been an
hour and a half, it's longer. So having two days
where I don't have to do that is really cool.
And I surprisingly get a lot done when I'm home.
Do you come out of your office and say, honey,
I'm home? I do, exactly. But it's that's pretty
awesome. Yeah, it's great cuz I'm like, I don't
worry about making a lunch nice It's just like
so it's amazing. So probably the gas for those
couple days. You're probably saving a little
bit Oh, yeah. Yeah, and it's cuz tomorrow actually
I get to work from home and what's kind of cool,
too Is that you know where that you could use
child labor you could use your son to do your
work for you He you know, I'll do what I need
to but it was what's kind of cool is that you
know during lunch I'm like, you know what I could
go take like a 45 minute nap and come back and
work if I really wanted to, so. I'm a 30 -year
-old man talking about taking naps, but that's
how you gotta do what you gotta do. I take a
shit ton of naps, Dan. Naps are freaking amazing.
I'm not gonna lie. Oh, my God, yes. Yes, sir.
Not speaking of naps, but, Chuck, I do know that
you did, you mentioned comic books, and you are
reading a comic book. You wanna give your thoughts
on what you've been reading? Uh, yeah, it's just
one of my... One of my trades that I kind of
picked up this week, and I've been in an Avengers
mood recently for whatever reason, but every
now and then I do enjoy me some West Coast Avengers.
Nice. And I was I picked up this book a while
back Avengers West Coast Vision Quest. It's kind
of the story of basically when all the governments
of the world banded together and sort of kidnapped
vision and disabled him and they. took him apart
and everything and disassembled him and they
wanted to erase data that he had acquired from
various secret agencies throughout the world
and they felt that he was a huge threat to them
and everything so they proceeded to do that but
when they did that they sort of broke him down
and basically erased his sort of his emotional
Matrix or whatever you want to call it. So it
was kind of like he could no longer feel any
emotions toward the Scarlet Witch or anything
like that. And it's really interesting story.
It's written and illustrated by John Byrne and
I love his art. I'm not super crazy about his
writing. Yeah, I mean, I like the story overall
in that aspect, but I guess it's his dialogue
that I'm not crazy about. And it's maybe it's
just a product of like. being in the 80s and
everything, but every other line, like they're
calling each other lover. Oh, I don't know. Lover.
Like, why don't we go to that? And I'm like,
when was that a thing? Like, I don't remember
people calling each other lover. Like, I don't
know. But you see, like Hawkeye and Mockingbird
in the story and they're kind of their marriage
is sort of on the rocks and everything. But you
have them talking to each other like that. And
it's actually from the 90s on SNL, Chuck, with
the skit with Will Ferrell and Anna Gasteyer
where they're in the hot tub. How are you doing,
lover? Yeah. I guess at that point it was pretty
prominent, but I don't know. But I guess I'm
glad I was too young to hear too many people
talking like that, because it's kind of annoying,
to be honest. But I mean, a lot of... I don't
know. I guess it's kind of... It's kind of similar
to some of the older the old school writers like
you're Roy Thomas's and Stan Lee's and everything
or it's it's still a little bit too over explanatory
and a lot of times and Some of the dialogue it's
smacking you in the face. It's like, okay, I
figured out what's happening You don't have to
reiterate it again Bagged with exposition. I
Mean other than that the story moves pretty well
and I do like the basic concepts that that John
Byrne laid out and everything. It was pretty
cool. And like I said, I love his art. That's
he's definitely probably in my top 10 or 15 favorite
artists. I like his stuff a lot from the 80s.
So it's pretty cool because it's it shows the
white the white vision. And you you kind of get
a you kind of get a view in this story of really
the parts that make up vision and like what.
Sort of how his Synthesoid body is put together.
It's like it's pretty interesting. Like it's
a combination of synthetic human organs and mechanical
parts and there's an interesting part where they
thought like You know, they thought for years
that the vision was made from the original human
torch body from back in like the 40s and then
they find out during the story that that's not
the case and the original creator of the human
torch was saying how, you know, the human torch
was basically an Android, which was like a copy
of a human. And he had no mechanical parts in
him, but the vision does, like he has certain
mechanical parts, but he also has synthetic human
parts and you get to see things. And when they
take, they sort of, when they disassemble him,
I guess they take his red skin off of his body
somehow. something gets disturbed in the circulation
and it loses its red hue, basically. And when
Hank Pym puts them back together, that's why
he's white. He kind of lost all that color. I
thought he had that Michael Jackson disease.
Yes, he had several unsuccessful plastic surgeries.
It's a really cool story just just for that aspect,
just to kind of get. In the innards of vision
and see like how he's like put together. It's
I thought it was kind of interesting I got a
kick out of it but like I said every now and
then I like the west of West Coast Avengers stuff
because for whatever reason I always thought
that was interesting and it they do go a little
bit too far though because This is kind of the
arc where they try to bring in the Great Lakes
Avengers And it's like one too far maybe like
yeah, just step back there just one step back
It's kind of funny. It's it's amusing. So interesting
story. I did want to talk about one comic i'm
reading too real quick when we talked about our
favorite comic writers I brought up matt matt
fraction and he wrote the comic x machina Uh
that I started picking up actually got the first
volume I thought I thought that uh, brian k von
wrote x machina not matt fraction. Sorry. We
talked about it We talked about I know why I
was thinking it was matt fraction brian k von.
Yes, um, which was I think a series I don't know
if it was before Why the Last Man or shortly
after. It was before. It was like, I think Ex
Machina was his first one. I think Why the Last
Man came afterwards. I've almost finished the
first volume. I actually was kind of cool because
I picked it up at the local library, which is
awesome because my local library has a pretty
kick -ass graphic novel section. So I picked
it up. What's a live library? It's this place
that allows you to take stuff and like borrow
it for a few days. Seriously? Yeah, it's amazing.
I've never heard of this. Movies, and I guess
people get books there, but I usually get movies
and comics. I would like to check out Emily Bett
Records. I don't know if they might have Emily
Bett Records records, if maybe you could check
those out. There might be late fees, though.
That'd be tough. I would totally pay those late
fees. Only cooperating locations have earned
stock. Can't get it at all, libraries. But I've
read the first four issues I think I'm in, and
it surrounds this guy who is working in New York
City, I think for the harbor police, I think,
or something like that. And he finds this thing
floating in the water, and it gives him special
powers, gives him the ability to talk to any
type of machines. And with that, he becomes a
superhero. You know, he's a pretty basic superhero.
He has that ability. He can stop guns from firing
and he ends up using it like it also allows him
to build this suit with this type of jet pack
and the story it the way it's laid out though.
It's like Current day. He's no longer superhero.
We actually ran for mayor for New York City is
now he's mayor and it's going through that progression
and actually opens up with a failed assassination
attempt and You kind of what we're happening
now It's like filling in his backstory of how
he became a superhero of the powers and there's
some question of like his morality Is he is he
really a hero? Is there more something sinister
going on? Is this really this the guy is this
guy? Really who he is or is he being ruled by
this machine power that he received? which is
kind of interesting and another piece of this
too is that it takes place in New York City and
The difference is, you know, he was there on
September 11th, but things were different because
of him I don't want to give anything away, but
he did affect that in some ways. So There are
a lot of interesting elements, too, because you
have these things, like him dealing with a political
aspect of his career where he has to deal with
something like the local art gallery that's causing
issues, but he also has to deal with other stuff,
like regarding superhero stuff. Again, Brian
came on doing something completely different,
so much so that I forgot that he wrote it. But
it's quite good. I don't think it's nearly to
the level of other things that I've read so far
from Brian Cavanagh, but I'm like, I'm just starting
it. So it is getting... Well, plus the fact that
this is probably one of the first things that
he's done and he's probably developed a better
sense of his writing abilities. For first story,
it works really. It's really interesting. The
art is OK. It's not phenomenal. I don't know
if it's the book I have, but the lettering is
kind of off. It's just, it almost feels like
overly big at times. I don't know. It's off to
I'll have to look at one of the graphic novels
and when I go into the comic books Yeah, I'm
looking forward to I'll probably picking up more
volumes there's it ran for quite a bit I don't
know if he ran he wrote the whole entire thing
But I'm gonna look it up right now. Actually,
I would I would recommend picking it up It's
it's it's I think worth worth reading for sure,
especially when you have to pay for it Yeah,
it won 2005 Eisner for best new series Yeah,
that's right on the cuffer. Yeah, and it came
out around the same time as why the last man
because it won a 2000 Award for 2005 Eisner award
for best writer for why the last man Runaways
and ex Machina so I just want to take a quick
break and we come back we will Again, we will
celebrate our 100th episode by playing our favorite
game factor fiction Hey, I'm Gary. I'm Mike.
I'm Chuck. And I'm Justin. Join the four of us

can't say something about Transformers, can I?
Good grief. What about sports? Yeah, that's alright.
Alright, and welcome back. Yesterday we were
playing Fact or Fiction, and those who have not
heard this game before, it's pretty straightforward.
We'll throw out some sayings, some statements,
and what we'll be doing is declaring those statements
fact, or are they fiction? Again, just like the
name sounds. So, I guess maybe I'll start, and
I'll start with one for Greg that I have for
you. And it's comic book related, since we were
talking about comic books. Fact or fiction at
this point. You're currently more excited for
non superhero comics than superhero comics Hmm.
Let's see. I have a lot of image comics I have
I hate fairyland which I'm reading which is really
good descender, which is definitely more sci
-fi Saga, but I read that in graphic novel form
Yeah, there's there's a there's a there is a
catching up with that, but I still think it's
definitely more comics superhero comics than
regular still but it's my regular my Non superhero
comics have definitely increased through the
years. That's that's definitely for sure. So
I'm gonna say fiction At this point, but it definitely
has increased through the years. I have been
enjoying a lot more random publishers and their
non superhero works, especially through images.
A lot of great stuff that has come out recently
that I'm definitely reading, especially thanks
to Brian cave on. Yeah. See for me, I would think
I still really like superhero. But oh I do too.
Yeah when I look at like my my favorite ones
the ones I look forward to I think they aren't
superhero comics at the moment. Yeah Yeah, if
you asked if I look forward more to them I I
think I would go with the non superheroes, but
I did enjoy recently Batman number 49 I thought
and how I kind of like took a hit at Scott Snyder
during our top five Writers, I kind of took a
shot of them that it hasn't been quite as good
lately, but Batman issue number 49 was freaking
amazing if you don't know Batman's been out of
the Bruce Wayne's been out of the suit lately
and not really knowing that he's been Batman
but kind of knowing that he's Batman and kind
of Jim Gordon has taken over well spoiler alert
Bruce Wayne is coming back and and this issue
he's trying to get his memory back memories back
of being Batman Bruce Wayne and it was a very
touching issue. There wasn't a lot of like fighting
action scenes, but it was kind of more emotional.
Just dealing with Bruce and Alfred. It was very,
very well done. It might be one of my favorite
comics of all time. Actually, it was it was really
well done. So I picked that up if I were you.
So there are definitely superhero comics that
can give the Non superhero comics that I've been
liking more lately a run for their money, but
there there's a lot of non superhero comics that
I do really look forward to Yeah, yeah, very
cool. I'll go with my next one for Chuck Chuck
fact or fiction You're looking more forward to
the flash superhero flash Supergirl crossover
than you are season two of daredevil of that
specific crossover I would have to say false.
I'm definitely excited for it. I don't think
it's quite enough to surpass an entire season
of Daredevil excitement, because I'm really looking
forward to seeing how they do the Punisher and
that. And especially since I know he's going
to be in every single episode now. So I know
he's a pretty substantial part of that. And Electra
and everything, which, you know what? Call me
crazy, but I just don't think that's going to
be as good as the original Electra movie. Oh,
man. Yeah. Don't think you can touch that. I
mean, Jennifer Garner really can't. Gosh, like,
you know, all those typhoid Mary and tattoo and
just timeless characters, you know. But no, yeah,
I would I would say I'm definitely looking forward
to the Flash Supergirl crossover, but. I think
I'm a little bit more excited for the Daredevil
season. Very cool. All right. Greg, do you want
to do, do you have ones for us? Yeah, I've been
kind of going with not just one individually,
but kind of ones for both of you at the same
time. Here's one I actually just came up with.
Factor Fiction. You guys would trade slash swap
your entire comic book collection with a co -host.
Like I would swap mine with one of yours Yeah,
like it's kind of like would you factor fiction
and then kind of a follow -up of like kind of
which one would you kind of situation? Man Chuck
you want to go first? So are you saying trade
your entire collection? Yeah, like you want like
you're kind of jealous as somebody else's collection.
That's co -hosting the show Boy Or do you like,
do you just want to keep yours? I kind of went
out of the factor fiction realm a little bit.
I was trying to force it into that. No, you can't
go messing with the realms, Greg. You mess things
up, you screw up the time stream, things start
happening. I'm already a little come after me
with the nine realms. My left arm is going invisible
right now as we speak. No, I just have to say
false because I really, really like my collection
and I think I've customized it perfectly to the
things that I'm into and everything and I know
you guys are into some different stuff and there's
nothing wrong with that but I think my collection
I've built it to suit my sensibilities pretty
good. I would say since I would say Greg yours
is probably more... impressive of mine when you
come to like the the amount of the quality when
it just the rarity of comics and You know, we
have some older comics like some really like,
you know X -Men early issues that I certainly
don't have But I guess for me like I've really
in a lot of ways stopped collecting You know,
because I mentioned I've gone digital and a great
deal. I don't really buy individual issues nearly
as much as I used to so So Dan has become communist.
He's no longer American. And like I mentioned,
going to the library, getting going there. But
when I think about my collection, what I like
about it, you know, I love the fact that I have
the entire Age of Apocalypse series. Is it like
as worth as much as like an old X -Men issue?
Probably not. Or I have like everything that
revolves around Civil War and the entire Cable
and Deadpool series and Captain America run.
So. along the same lines I'd probably go fiction
because Although I would probably be getting
a more impressive collection if I went and traded
it with someone else I think it would not be
representation a representation of what comics
I really like to read so That's that's what I
was kind of expecting from the answers kind of
And I should have phrased it better to get those
answers, but you guys did great I am a little
jealous of some of those X -Men issues you have.
Maybe I would just trade a couple for those.
I can trade you X -Men number one from the 90s,
because that one's super rare. Sure it is. For
X -Men number four. One became a 4 -4, right?
Isn't that how it works? I'll trade you X -Men
number one for, I think I have Fantastic Four
number... 452 maybe Just nothing happens in that
issue Now I'm I'm pretty proud of some of the
runs that I've put together I think I have I
have uncanny X -Men I think from It's like the
mid -200s like 240s or something all the way
up to Like 370s or something like that. I have
a nice run going there I think I have my head
as you're saying it Chuck. So And then I think
I have the silver surfer third volume. I think
I have like one through 110 or something like
that. You have a massive silver surfer collection.
I'll try and find some for you. Sometimes the
con, it's like, Chuck, here's one. You're like,
no, I have that one. I'm like, oh, OK. There
was a time where I had certain ones I'm missing,
but I actually filled the entire run now. I think
I have it's like a little bit more than one through
110 or 120 or something like that. I remember
when books would get up that high. Yeah We went
five issues restart over again. Nobody will buy
this issue number six. That's a way too high
of a number Well DC's going back to their old
numbering thing now with their rebirth thing
Are they really? Yeah, they're going back to
the original numbering system for some of that
like detective comics and action comics and stuff
So they said they're hopeful they actually might
reach issue 1000 on a couple of those Interesting
because I was looking at them and I saw rebirth
number one and Interesting. Yeah, I just saw
that they signed they signed Tom King to an exclusive
deal which makes me sad because he was writing
vision and I love that book so The vision where
they're out in the suburbs kind of situation
like it's like a vision and it's like a weird
movie. It's yeah really good though Read the
first one. I was like This was not what I was
expecting. So it's kind of like when you're eating
something or you're like expecting Oh, I'm gonna
be putting a nice piece of steak in my mouth
and it's like a nice aged old cheese and it's
like Yeah, I could see that I could see that
Chuck what do you have? Okay, let's see this
minor kind of more for both you guys Yeah, those
were the only ones that were individual all my
other ones are for both of you This one's sort
of I guess something we Talked in great depth
about last episode and that's the Deadpool movie.
So my question is for both you guys fact or fiction
Years from now we will look back on Deadpool
as groundbreaking for all the great are rated
comic book films that came after it Well, first
I'm going to say fiction, so I don't forget later
on and be like, so is that a fact or fiction?
But I don't be like, can you ask the question?
That's what I usually do. But I don't think there's
anything quite like Deadpool that could even
come close to treading in its path. You know
what I mean? I think there's some great r -rated
or comic books that could come out r -rated I
think they'll do it on their own merit, but I
don't think there's anybody that could quite
tread the same path as Deadpool I think it's
kind of Original I don't think you're gonna get
anything else like it, but that being said like
if you came out with mall man plans That would
be a great r -rated movie. I think but it's it's
nowhere close to being like anything Kind of
a type of story like Deadpool. I don't know if
you saw James Gunn regarding the success of Deadpool.
I see that now. I think he makes a really great
point regarding Deadpool wasn't successful because
it was R -rated. It was successful because it
was a really good movie that was unique and original.
The rating really didn't have as much to do about
it. And I agree with that. I think Deadpool is
a really great R -rated movie. But I think the
wrong takeaway would be, OK, we now can make
more R -rated. Movies it's like that's not I
think a lot of people want to go see that not
knowing what the rating was guarding to the galaxy
Wasn't successful because it was PG -13. It was
successful because it was funny original and
really good and So I hope that the lesson isn't,
okay, let's just throw R rated movies out there.
Like I heard some people saying, oh, now we can
make a Spawn movie. I'm like, the success of
Deadpool. We already did that. The success, what
was PG -13 when it came out? So people were like,
oh, now we can make an R rated one. Like the
success of Deadpool would have nothing to do
with the success of Spawn because they're so
different. I think actually that was rated PG
awful. pretty god -awful is what it's perfect
perfect i don't know i i'm sorry i don't know
if you're finished in yeah so i like i'm i think
it's showing it's possible but adding people
saying oh now wolverine should be rated r i'm
like i don't think wolverine needs to be rated
r i think uh Hugh Jackman even mentioned that
he doesn't want it to be because he has a lot
of kids that come to him that are really young
that he wouldn't want to make an art rated movie
and i think i kind of understand that so maybe
we'll see there'll be more But I don't necessarily
think that after the hangover, people are like,
oh, now we can make R -rated comedies again.
But then they made a lot of bad R -rated comedies
that weren't nearly as good. So it's like the
key, I think, is always going to be making good
movies. And that's what will be successful, rating
or not. So maybe more will be made now than before.
Because now you can say, hey, Deadpool was successful,
and that was rated R. So maybe we could get a
Punisher movie, or we can get something else.
I don't know. So I guess I'll say fiction, but
I guess fact in a way too. I don't know. I pulled
a Greg there. That's why I answered it first.
What's the question? I don't know. You bring
up a great point, but I think there's also another
side of the coin that you can't really forget
and that's that like some of the less prominent
comics that people have really heard of, but
clearly would have a sort of an R rated theme
even in the comic. Like maybe now People look
at sort of adapting them into a film where they
wouldn't have thought of doing it before because
of the success of Deadpool so I think it just
opens up some opportunities like that and Gives
people a chance to explore some other movies
just my personal opinion I don't think it's I
don't know if he'd necessarily call it groundbreaking
But I think it might I think it definitely will
have an influence in some way bringing some more
adaptations maybe from some things that we normally
wouldn't have seen somehow. I could see that
for sure. Hey, if they can get Cable to work,
I think there's no limits to what Deadpool can
accomplish. Yeah, especially if they do Kevin
Nash and they get him to somehow work in that
movie. Well, I mean, he was a gigantic success
in his work in Magic Mike. So probably seeing
that thinking this is a start waiting to happen.
You know, we've all seen Magic Mike Right. I
went to see it strictly to see Kevin Nash dance.
That's that's all Okay But all right my next
factor fiction getting away from that as quickly
as possible Factor fiction any food is breakfast
food if you eat it early enough fact, but I think
McDonald's is bullshit for saying they invented
breakfast it all day all day long that is Bullshit
McDonald's, I wish they would pull those commercials.
Are you one that will eat anything for breakfast,
or do you have a social... Well, you don't eat
breakfast usually, right? I've actually been
eating a lot more during the weekdays. Well,
actually, no, I just kind of eat cereal for lunch,
I guess you would say. So I guess I don't really
eat breakfast at all. Yeah. When on the odd opportunity
that I do wake up early enough for it, I do eat
breakfast. Yes. Anymore. My stomach's been a
lot better than it has been. So especially if
I'm home and I'm not going anywhere. So I know
if I'm going to explode digestively. I know I
have a bathroom to run to. Nice, nice. Chuck?
I'm going to say fiction, because I mean, I have
a pretty much cast iron stomach for the most
part. But I have seen Chuck eat one of those
Thursdays. What is it? Thursdays? No. Ruby Tuesdays.
Wow, I really had to go through the days of the
week. What are those? Thank God it's Thursday,
Tuesday, Ruby. Thank God it's Ruby Thursday.
I was going through the days of the week in my
head, seriously, to come up with that. It was
Emerald Thursdays. But I saw Chuck eat at a Ruby
Tuesdays. What are those? Uh, the, the huge colossal
burger or whatever it was. And like, I, like,
I think it was me, you and Dan all had one coincidentally
and you had yours done. I think in five minutes,
I like just started to eat. Like I was third
of the way through mine. Like, and I wasn't really
looking at anybody when we got it and I ate third
of it. And then I looked over at you and yours
was completely. freaking gone, french fries and
all, and I was like, Chuck, what the hell happened?
How much time has passed? You inhaled that sucker.
Isn't that when the waitress came over and she's
like, oh, does anyone want dessert? I was like,
everyone else is eating. I'm like done sitting
there with my arms crossed. Yeah. I was amazed
by that. Sometimes I, sometimes I really get
hungry and I could definitely down a burger,
but I don't know. I love a lot of different foods.
There's very few things I won't eat. There's
a very short list, which includes olives and
mushrooms. I will not touch those. Oh, black
olives? Oh, gosh, that's disgusting. Oh, I love
black olives, Chuck. We have cans of black olives
at my house, and we'll just crack them open and
just eat them during the meal. Seriously? The
hell is wrong with you? Yes. Oh, I love black
olives. You can't get the crappy ones that you
get like at a salad bar or something because
then they just taste like black rubber and they're
disgusting I Don't know that's just that's disturbing.
I don't know if I'm gonna get to sleep tonight
No, and then I don't know I can't stand mushrooms,
but pretty much everything else I'm not a seafood
fan, but it's it doesn't taste terrible, but
I've ever had else but like for breakfast Rusted
tilapia is really good Chuck Maybe. For breakfast,
though, I don't think, like, I don't think there's
any way I would eat mayonnaise for breakfast.
I just don't see that happening at all. Or mustard
or any sort of things like that. I've had pizza
for breakfast, definitely, in the college days.
Probably at some point I've had like meatloaf
for breakfast or something, but I don't know.
Well, me loves kind of like a Scrabble almost
that that's a breakfast meal type of thing. It's
a Scrabble. Yes Just going after the Scrabble
socks is all you get. See, I've eaten way too
many bad things for breakfast. For the Super
Bowl, we made barbecue nachos, barbecue chicken
nachos, and we had some left over. And the next
day, I was off. I'm like, I'm going to so have
these for breakfast. And I did not regret it
in the least, maybe a little bit. But yeah, so
I have a tendency to eat whatever for breakfast
and tend to eat it cold, too, because I tend
to prefer. Foods cold rather than microwaves
because I feel like the microwave tends to take
your mad man. I know I just hate leftovers in
general You just feed them to you they're left
for you since you like them so exactly Ship all
your leftovers to me then All right, Greg moving
back over to you do you anymore? Ah, yes, I do
this one's more for Chuck This question is gonna
confuse you guys, but factor fiction Haley at
well have at it. There you go. That is a fact
That's what I was looking for Not sure what I'm
agreeing to here, but All I know is I like her
and you know, I really like her Roll on the agent
Carter and everything pretty much like everything
about her I think I follow her on Twitter and
she's pretty cool on there. So I don't know fact.
I don't know what This is why I asked this question
I agree with its fact because she's a real person.
So is that the question? That is in fact her
name most it was mostly for Chuck do you want
a different question Dan go for it? Okay factor
fiction human minds will be stored on hard drives
in our lifetime Now do you want to go back to
the hilly? I'll go with human minds I'll go see
you got a difficult tricky question, and I just
had to think about a pretty girl I Have easy
on this one. I just wanted you to confess your
love for on the podcast Chuck I'll go with the
human mind is the hard drive is in our lifetime
as fiction. I just don't think That would happen.
Oh really wrong Skynet could be real, but I'm
gonna go with fiction for now We've actually
had and I've watched a documentary about it where
this guy who's a futurist and he's actually Predicted
a lot of things that have have come to fruition.
I'm not sure of his statistics if how many he's
gotten wrong Futurist yes, it's like a made -up
position of like someone that can't get a job
and they just know no It's an actual thing is
that like Tony Stark is a futurist kind of he
kind of He's also made of character Lobo Dan,
but this guy's a real guy and he is a futurist
I forget his name futurist aka. I can't find
a real job He predicts Rhythms of things going
on and everything and he he predicts that in
like the next like 15 to 25 years that we're
gonna be able to Store memories and everything
on computers and and such like that So if they
plug into your hard drive, Greg would would someone
automatically get a virus? Yes My mind is very
dirty. I'm still thinking about last episode
when I ended on Morena background or whatever
her hell her last name is it doesn't matter.
She's Yeah, I don't know what it is It's gorgeous.
All I'm picturing is that one scene that I seriously.
Yeah, we know. Yeah, you do. It passed way too
fast. I wanted to go slower. And you probably
saw me instantly like like my whole body just
probably did not see anything. I probably left
out of my seat a little bit in the. Watching
that scene, but yeah. Chuck on to you. Do you
have any other futurist factor fictions? Of course,
let me see Okay, how about this one? This is
before both of you again factor fiction DC is
joining the party way too late for making a cinematic
universe and Being light years behind Marvel.
It will seriously affect their profits What do
you think I'm gonna go I think they'll still
be successful. I think Batman or Superman will
probably make a ton of money just because of
the name recognition of those two characters.
You don't think within a couple of years they'll
be like a superhero fatigue or and they're gonna
kind of miss the window that Marvel hit pretty
squarely. I feel like all companies have been
able to keep the movies fresh enough, like to
the point where Suicide Squad doesn't even look
like a superhero movie. You know what I mean?
So I just I wonder and Wonder Woman almost could
easily be more of a fantasy film than it is a
superhero movie. Like a like a classic gladiator
movie in that sense. So it's just guessing. But
there may be. But I feel like every time we talk
about superhero fatigue and then another movie
makes a billion dollars. So. Yeah, yeah, so I
would think we're at least maybe five years away
from that and if anything the company that might
see fatigue would be Marvel because Where was
kind of and at the point where they're giving
us more of the same even if the same is good
But maybe that people will now gravitate towards
DC because it's a different flavor But if DC
sucks then that would change the game exactly
that could drastically change it true, but I'm
hoping I'm hoping I'm holding out hope that it
won't. Yes. If it goes over as well as the TV
universe, then I would say then they have some
promise. So, Greg, what do you think? I'm forgetting
whether this is how to factor fiction this, but
my explanation is I definitely think that DC
is definitely catch up here. And I'm not sure
if from what I'm seeing from the trailers or
anything, if they're They're kind of like a quarterback,
a rookie quarterback in hurry up mode. They're
trying to catch up and everything. They're behind
by 20 points with not a lot of time on the clock.
So they're making bad decisions and making bad
throws. I feel like that's DC right now is a
rookie quarterback behind in the game. So I'm
not sure if that's a factor of fiction towards
your question or not, but that's my answer. Do
you think they're going to like... kind of missed
this window and Be making the bulk of their movies
after like superhero exhaustion and they're gonna
they're well I think they're gonna start the
superhero exhaustion with definitely them and
Marvel pumping out movies and Like I said, I
don't think they're gonna hit the mark as well.
So I think People are gonna get tired of crappy
movies with it Sorry to say So I think they're
gonna help wear it out Definitely sooner than
just Marvel by itself going here. Yeah. So with
a good segue there, let me ask you guys a quick
follow up. Do you feel like everything for DC
is sort of riding on Batman versus Superman?
Like this is their Hail Mary at the beginning
kind of, because if this one is terrible, is
that going to ruin people's trust? Like Marvel
was quick out of the gate and built people's
trust quickly. Like if this is terrible, is this
going to like really hurt them? I think not since
like I think Suicide Squad would be able to separate
itself enough. Yeah, I agree with that Dan. So
because I mean I Wasn't the hugest fan of Man
of Steel and this is very much the same as Man
of Steel But I feel like it's different enough
that I'm still excited for Batman v Superman
and if that doesn't really That isn't successful.
It ends up being a bad. I feel like when I look
at suicide squad It's almost like it's a complete.
It's almost might as well be something completely
unrelated. So I would say it's it still has a
chance it may hurt it some but I don't think
it would completely kill my my help for it just
like if Avengers wasn't good. It would still
be excited for dr. Strange. Yeah I would say
that um, yeah, I think it would have a crippling
effect, but I still think they're able to crawl
away a little bit from it. But it may hurt their
chances with other movies because it's like they're
starting off with the Avengers instead of starting
off with like they had Incredible Hulk with Ed
Norton. And that was kind of like after Iron
Man and They went into the Avengers with both
those characters, but Incredible Hulk didn't
do so well. They didn't have Ed Norton come back
and everything, but they could kind of fix that.
But if they're kind of all together, I think
it's a little bit harder to fix going in that
direction than how Marvel did. Yeah, especially
with everything they're throwing into this. i'm
hearing we're supposed to have like aquaman and
cyborg make appearances and everything holy crap
yeah like not a big they're trying they're trying
to stuff it full it's like the the old batman
movies where like oh we've got batman oh batman
robin uh batman robin batgirl uh bane uh poison
ivy mr freeze like they're just trying to stuff
it all in there to make it as awesome as possible
and that's not really how you make an awesome
movie that's how you make a Routed movie that's
tough to get all the parts to fit together, right?
Yeah I'm just hoping like a lot of those characters
are super quick cameos or something like that
or you just like see them Do you like what the
some of the only old 90s cartoons would do where
we're just show them watching like the news Footage
and it just would go around to kind of show the
universe by seeing Aquaman watching the news,
which we kind of Don't the fish tell them the
news like maybe Damn, the school of fish are
getting in my way again. Mera, get these fish
out of my way. All right, I do have another one.
I'll go with this one for you guys, both of you.
Fact or fiction, the invention of the smartphone
has doubled your average bathroom time. Fiction,
because I've always spent all... crap load of
time in the bathroom. I am not a quick pooper.
I take my time because my stomach takes a while
to get it all out and everything. And then if
I think I'm done and I get up and wipe and everything,
get out of there. Like two minutes later, I'll
be back anyway. So I just sit there and kind
of wait for it. It's a very detailed description.
I had a very detailed poop. No, you had to expect
it from me. I am the worst human being possible.
So having double it has maybe your invention
of a smartphone though has maybe made it more
enjoyable. Yes, it has. Otherwise, I would take
books in before anyway. So it's made it so I
have not been able to read as much. More efficient.
Because in that time period, you have consumed
more information. Yeah. Maybe. I might have to
say fact for me. I think it just may have, maybe
not quite doubled it, but at least not at work
because it's weird. Like I don't, I don't really
do that at work because I try to get out of there
as quick as possible at work. Cause usually some
American pie, usually some weirdo comes in and
sits in the stall next to me and you know, it
just ends up reeking. So I'm like, I get to get
out of there as quickly as possible. But, um,
yeah, smartphones are, your facilities are really
nice at a pen dot there, Chuck. Yeah. Well, it's
just a note like, oh my gosh, bathroom etiquette.
Like people don't know it. Like there's like
a bunch of stalls and like someone comes in the
one right next to you. I'm like, really? Like,
come on. Like, I know there's a wall here, but
it's like personal space, dude. Like go down
one, like skip one. We are friends. Like, I don't
want to see your foot twitching while you're
squeezing one out. Like, I don't want to see
that. Oh my gosh. Or the brunting. It's just
like, it doesn't add, it does not add the ambience
of this moment. No. So. You can't, you can't
enjoy a good article while that's going on. I'm
trying to send a tweet. It's just, you know,
it's distracting. Greg, do you have any more?
Yes. Fact or fiction? This is an easy one. You
organize your comics in alphabetical order. Yeah
fact I usually go I went by Company and then
by alphabet so Okay, very nice Chuck Movies as
well, so I have not organized my movies in a
while. Okay. I was gonna be upset at you damn
I see I used to try to do it by genre and that's
just a fool's errand. Yeah I see this is why
I asked the question about comic books is I never
know exactly because there's so many different
titles like you have the amazing spider -man
the Peter Parker spider -man like Spectacular
spider -man it's just like okay So am I just
going by spider -man and then into this or am
I put an amazing? in like in front with like
I don't have it, but like Amazing Fantasy number
15. Like how does that work? That's a conundrum.
I would if it's like a Amazing Fantasy a story
like that that is kind of a what are they called
anthology series? I would go with a what if it's
like Amazing Spider -Man and like the idea is
I'm it's a Spider -Man comic I would put it within
the other Spider -Man comics But just put it
probably put it first because my thinking is
if I'm looking for Spider -Man, I'm probably
gonna go to s first. Yeah Sorry Chuck weak we
kind of interrupted you and kind of answered
for you, but I'd still like your answer No Actually,
I'm fiction I Really I don't do it. I do it kind
of by long box and I mean, I think we all pretty
much try to cram as much as we can in the long
box, but I think, like, I have an X -Men box.
So, like, I have all my X titles in there. Regular
X -Men, Uncanny X -Men, X -Men Unlimited, X -Force,
X -Factor, like, all those, like, all my X titles
in there. Even, like, even some of the solo characters
that got their own lines, like, Gambit, Rogue,
Bishop, some of those. Like, I have all the...
X stuff in one area and then I'll have like I
have like another box of all my Silver Surfer
stuff and spacey stuff like Infinity Gauntlet
and Warlock and Infinity Watch stuff and Guardians
of the Galaxy and like all the spacey stuff I
have in in sort of one box because I the reason
I did it that way is because I found like when
I'm when I go looking for something most likely
I'm gonna be looking for Things related to that.
So I'm I figure while I'm in that box. I might
as well be Getting everything I need instead
of looking through multiple boxes just because
like guardians the galaxy would be G and silver
servers s I don't be going in different boxes.
Like if I'm looking for that stuff, like I want
to stay in one box so I kind of did that way
like all my spider -man titles I have in one
box or two boxes and You know just stuff like
that all the Avengers stuff whether it's West
Coast, which is W or a for Avengers It's I have
it all in one area. Yeah, I feel like I need
somebody to come over Yeah, I know I've heard
of people like just generally organizing them
into kind of like the likes of like spider -man
all spider -man in this box like these couple
boxes and then they have catalog of like a binder
filled with paper and they'll have like box a
one and they'll have like the comics listed in
that box a two comics listed in that so they
could just kind of look up and they'll have like
the A's are like a comic books, like Amazing
Spider, Amazing Fantasy, Alpha Flight and stuff
like that. And like the B's would be. So it's
like a kind of a look up system. Yeah, I kind
of just something like that, like I have a notebook
and I numbered all my long boxes like I wrote
like with a marker. on the front of it and circled
it. And then in my notebook page, I have the
box number and then all the titles in that box.
So like if I'm looking for something from a certain
title, I know which box to go in and stuff. Cool.
Chuck, did you have more? Yeah, I could do another
one. This may create some controversy, but. Think
it'll be healthy for us And that's it for talking
in circles, this has been the hundredth and last
episode nothing that Factor fiction the flash
is the best comic book show on TV right now When
you say TV do you include Netflix? Yes, anything
that's not a film It's kind of comparing apples
and oranges, but I Think Daredevil would be a
better one. I do really like me some flash But
I think Daredevil was so good all the way around
uh plus flash kind of has more out there so that
kind of skews their average uh little wonky and
everything in daredevil's kind of been tight
but it's been a shorter run i'm gonna have to
go with daredevil or flash so i'm gonna go fiction
please don't hurt me uh i'm probably along the
same lines like it's oh i'm just comparing season
one of daredevil to season one of flash those
are things that easily for me would be the You
know what it wouldn't one in 1a. Oh, don't forget.
I'm this isn't necessarily Superhero comic books.
Oh, then you know walking dead walking dead Yeah,
this this season This season walking dead has
not been We need him to host the show. Otherwise,
we're screwed. Let's try rebooting him. Yeah
So I like walking dead, but I still think I enjoy
I feel daredevil It's hard to say because you're
looking at what six seasons compared to one But
looking at the first season daredevil compared
to the first season walking dead. There's no
comparison, but Like I think walking dead to
really great at times. Like it's really like
it's Walking Dead has this this kind of bipolar
personality where either everything happens or
nothing happens and when everything is happening
It's great, but when nothing happens sometimes
it like it's gets a little tedious, but I do
like both shows But I think Daredevil to me I
was just like it's hard to even quantify it as
a TV show because of what it's able to do like
it's Action scene wise it's impressive though
Walking Dead it has its moments as well, but
I think acting storytelling Character development
the whole package Daredevil and I would probably
then go walking dead and then probably go flash
Overall for just comic book TV shows. I'm not
there's anything else. I'm forgetting that's
currently comic TV show I Zombie I haven't watched
that. I want to see it, but I haven't got around
to it Agent Carter. I haven't really watched
Asian Carter. So the season got some not I haven't
really I've watched like the first two, three
episodes and I haven't caught up with it. I've
actually been keeping up with it. See, like,
I was going to wait and watch it on Netflix,
but it's never come on Netflix yet. So I haven't
been able to finish season one. So, yeah, I'm
going to go with Fiction and Daredevil. So that
took a lot longer than it should have been. I'm
actually going to disagree with you guys and
say fact because I am loving Flash right now.
Yes, you love it so much. Why don't you marry
it? I'm gonna put a ring on it. I'm getting the
flash ringtone for my phone. No, I did enjoy
Daredevil a lot and Don't get me wrong. They
did some great things in in that 13 episode arc,
but to me it's just that it's 13 episodes and
Flash has been super consistent for me for these
first two seasons now and I guess I didn't realize
that until I had something to compare it to,
which was Arrow in this case. And I see how inconsistent
Arrow has been. And I look at like, you know,
season two of Arrow is awesome. Season three,
not so good. Season four, still not so good because
they don't really have a good villain like they
did before. But Flash has everything I'm looking
for and it has stayed consistent, in my opinion.
And Even even like on their Filler episodes that
you might eat like most shows have like I don't
feel like they really have Filler episodes I
feel like it's usually high octane most of the
time and there's usually really really interesting
things going on Easter eggs. They're throwing
in References and especially with the added excitement
of the shared universe like they're they're thrown
in things about Team Arrow and they're thrown
in things about legends of tomorrow and they
have little things going on with Supergirl and
everything. I really like what flash is doing
every week. The writing to me is Exceptional,
I think I don't know. I just I really really
like what they're doing how they set things up
and It it doesn't seem to ever get boring even
though it's it's like a 23 Episode thing throughout
the season or however many they have I just feel
like it's kept up that level the entire time
and Maybe maybe after season two Daredevil is
released If that remains just as consistent,
you know, maybe I'll have to reconsider but going
to flash for now Yeah, I really like flash and
I guess the only my only complaint with this
season is I like the character zoo I think is
like he is this frightening force. I just found
I might be the minority I think I liked season
one more because I felt Harrison Wells Was much
more of a compelling villain for me than zoom
is at this point because right now we don't really
ease kind of just this mystery and I think that
it's an interesting mystery, but I like I would
I want to get to know like what exactly and it's
something that could happen in upcoming episodes
like Like what is his motivation beyond just
wanting to get the speed force? Like why is it
that like where is this coming from? Like what
is his end goal? And we didn't completely get
that with Harrison Wells But I at least felt
like we got to know him and he was he was such
a I don't know multi -dimensional character and
even now in this season and we are Getting that
quite with zoom and I know it's a different approach.
She's more of like this This is furious figure
that like is frightening and you need like you
could destroy you in a moment's notice I think
that's effective. But At this point, I would
wish we got a little bit more. Like I said, it's
possible with the season coming. I just mystery
can be Great for a show because it can keep you
like guessing but sometimes it can hurt a show
when you don't have a Better understanding of
where things are coming from. I'm not saying
flash is there yet, but I'm just saying that's
why I think I'd like season one at This point
more than season two which could change and you
know And I think they're trying to finally with
these are two episodes kind of get into what
what zooms deal is Yeah, I actually was thinking
about that very thing this morning and about
zoom and the mystery behind him and I think I'm
actually enjoying it more that the fact that
he's such a mystery. And on one hand, I'm dying
to find out like who he is. But the more I thought
about it, I'm like, I think it might ruin it
for me if I know who he is, because like Chuck
right now, he's just like a zoom. I am zoom.
He's just like a supernatural force. Like he
looks like a demon. He's got these black shark
eyes and it's like he doesn't look human. So
I feel like if if they reveal him, it'll almost
ruin it for me at least. And what how I'm relating
to the character. What if we find out he is also
a futurist? I don't know. Well, see, he's actually
doing something about it. He's not just sitting
around contemplating things. So. I have ideas
of who he could be because you feel like it has
to be someone that you know, right? Like if you
don't Yeah, I feel like it's got to be someone
that would it would make it would pack a powerful
emotional punch for Barry. It's gotta be But
I thought I had a good idea like I'll just say
it. I thought it was like well That'd be really
weird. I Thought it'd be his dad either from
Earth to just because like yeah he kind of has
the build that same build or something but yeah
that's my guess i don't know they've hinted at
other speed characters with wally west and then
a few others too so i don't know it'd be the
what is this the guy's name um the the flash
from earth to his his real name Jay Garrick?
Jay Garrick in Earth One, like his real, the
name that he was using, I guess. Oh, Hunter Zalomon?
Yeah, he's another speedster, I guess. Who actually
was the first Zoom in the comics, so. Yeah, so,
but I'm like, well, then that doesn't make sense
because he's, so, I don't know. He's in Earth
One all the time, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I don't know.
I actually, I had this crazy thought of like,
what if it's Earth Two Oliver? I don't think
anybody would see that coming but I've heard
rumors that are supposed to see Oliver in Earth
2 and he's supposed to be like Dark Knight returns
Oliver Yeah, I actually I think they showed a
kind of a glimpse of when they're traveling through
the breach Actually, no, it wasn't Oliver. There
were a lot of people were saying that was a Connor
Hawk version of green arrow, but Did you see
that when they were traveling through that breach
like some of the cool things they were showing?
No, I missed that person. They were when they
were going to Earth to and they travel through
the portal. There's like images passing by on
the sides of them. And there was some really
cool things like if you pause it, you can kind
of pick out like I think they show Jonah Hex
actually. And there's like a glimpse of Supergirl
flying. And they show a legion ring from the
Legion of Superheroes and stuff from the future.
So speaking of which, I tried to watch that cartoon.
God -awful It's on Amazon. I was just like this
is not I mean, I should say it's really kiddy.
It's really Oh, that's so they thought comics
were for back in the day. Well, no, it's from
like 2000 Oh, really? Yeah. Well, I thought you
were talking about Legion of superheroes back
in the day like meanwhile It came after Justice
League ended. It came on after that. Meanwhile,
back in the Hall of Justice. No, it's not. It's
like 2008. I forget. It's late. It's like after
we... Yeah, it's like 2008, I think it came out.
Wow. I don't know. But yeah, interesting. Anything
else? Any other fact or fiction you guys wanted
to bring up? So 2008, and you're so 2000 and
late. Yeah, a little late on that one. You guys
have any more? Are you guys good? I'll do one
real real quick one. Okay. Fact or fiction, John
Bernthal's Punisher will be the definitive live
-action Punisher when Daredevil is set and done.
Ah man. I know it's hard to, it's impossible
to say without seeing it, but just be - I really
like the Thomas Jane version though. Yeah, I
wanna go fiction because I feel like he's gonna
be more villainous in this, so I wonder if like,
like if he is gonna be - A different type of
Punisher than we expect. So I think Thomas James
will still be the one that I like the most. Yeah
Yeah, I think I definitely think I'm sure The
Tom Jane one definitely appeals more to his Humanity
and you find yourself cheering for him. But this
this version that's it definitely looks like
they're kind of Villainizing him if that's a
word and I'm guessing you're gonna be gonna be
cheering for Daredevil. I don't know. We'll see
though Yeah, I don't know if that's just me thinking
of that actor and his other roles and how he's
been kind of on hand just before, so. Maybe,
you know, he'll convince, maybe he'll convince
Daredevil's wife that he's dead and up with her
and have a baby with her. I'm waiting for like
the Walking Dead, like Daredevil, Mashup, I'm
sure those are coming. Oh yeah. We'll see. But
