Marvel's What If...? S3E7 & E8 (SERIES FINALE) - Fandom Hybrid Podcast #338

#marvel #whatif In the final episodes for this series, Peggy Carter, Kahhori, Byrdie the Duck, and Ororo "Storm" Munro are on a rescue mission when shards of The Observational Plane find them, signaling that The Watcher is in trouble. After coming up with a plan to save him (which includes a very unlikely ally), they must battle with The Order of the Watchers to save Uatu and the universes they have saved with his help. Oaths will be sworn, sacrifices will be made, but will that be enough?

00:00:24,980 --> 00:00:28,140
What's up hybrids?
Welcome back to another episode

2
00:00:28,140 --> 00:00:31,420
of the Phantom Hybrid Podcast.
This is Hanukkah and I am here

3
00:00:31,420 --> 00:00:35,220
with Anthony and Mike, and we
are discussing the last two

4
00:00:35,220 --> 00:00:41,480
episodes of the What If series.
Yeah, we decided we were going

5
00:00:41,480 --> 00:00:44,880
to go ahead and discuss both
episodes together since they're

6
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:48,400
both dealing with the trial and
the outcome of the trial of the

7
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:53,280
watcher who has found himself in
a little bit of trouble because

8
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:56,280
of his interference and to all
of the multiverse stuff.

9
00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:02,240
So yeah, let's get started.
I'm going to start with Mike

10
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:08,040
first, 'cause are you glad that
we got to see Birdie the Duck as

11
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:11,680
an adult?
I am and shout to Natasha Lyonne

12
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,560
for giving her the absolute spot
on perfect voice for it.

13
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,400
Like I love I I loved her in
this.

14
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:21,880
It was awesome.
But the thing I love most and

15
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:26,080
the reason I've waited for this
moment is because we got Storm

16
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:28,720
in this bitch.
We finally have an X-Men.

17
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:32,640
So a member of the X-Men in a
what if episode.

18
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:34,760
And this is I'm excited for
this.

19
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:38,400
X-Men in the MCU confirmed.
Well, technically.

20
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,280
It was confirmed with Deadpool
and Wolverine, but you.

21
00:01:42,320 --> 00:01:44,800
Know, I mean technically it was
confirmed with the Marvels when

22
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:46,640
they had when they had Beast in
there.

23
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:51,160
And it was confirmed with the
Adamantium Celestial island,

24
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:51,880
but.
We'll talk.

25
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:55,480
About that later.
Confirmed when Quicksilver was

26
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:57,360
in one division and they
switched them to Adam.

27
00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,640
Wait.
A minute so So now we're saying

28
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,880
all of this, I'm realizing just
how much they're pulling the

29
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,080
X-Men into the MCU.
They just been kind of but I'm

30
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:10,880
in little hints there, but.
Regard but yes, but storm like

31
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:14,720
her power level, her wielding
mule near like Oh my God that

32
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:19,800
was beautiful and I like it also
because most of my favorite what

33
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,000
if episodes have something to do
with the X-Men.

34
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:27,840
Like, well, my favorites is what
if Charles Xavier got the Gemma

35
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:32,200
Sutorak instead of his brother
and he became Juggernaut, which

36
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,080
is a it's a really good, really
good comic.

37
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:38,440
And they they've done a lot of
actually have a couple in my in

38
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:42,360
my what if collection.
I have a couple of of the X-Men,

39
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:43,680
X-Men and The Avengers did
something.

40
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,920
I can't remember but that, but
they're a big part of what if,

41
00:02:46,920 --> 00:02:49,400
and I'm surprised that it I'm a
little surprised that it took

42
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,200
them this long to actually
include them.

43
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,160
But yes, I love both of these
episodes.

44
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:57,400
Shout out to Marvel for giving
us a Dragon Ball Z fight scene

45
00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:01,080
in the final episode where they
were just like fighting all over

46
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:04,600
the fucking skyline and that
shit was beautiful.

47
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:08,120
And shout out to watch who just
being a menace, like turning all

48
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:09,760
four of them into fucking
watchers.

49
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,360
They're making the like giving
giving them a shortcut oath.

50
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:13,240
I'm like.
Listen.

51
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,680
Listen, This is why you in
trouble now.

52
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,920
This is why you do it all
because you just all Willy nilly

53
00:03:19,920 --> 00:03:22,360
about your watcher.
This just throwing it here and

54
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:23,440
there.
I mean fuck.

55
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:27,920
But having said that, they were
fucking phenomenal.

56
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:32,600
Like holy shit, Peggy Carter was
a fucking beast as as a fucking

57
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,240
watcher and shelter.
They did bring her back for

58
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,880
these two episodes because I
think we had just mentioned it

59
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:42,600
like maybe a couple of episodes
ago talking about this series

60
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:47,080
that we had not seen Peggy
Carter at all in this third

61
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,800
season, which was kind of weird
considering at the end of last

62
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:53,400
season a while to like literally
showed her the tree and told her

63
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,840
the truth about the multiverse.
So it was kind of strange that

64
00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:00,000
she hadn't popped up yet.
So I'm glad that she showed up

65
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,280
in this one.
And not only you have heard you

66
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:07,240
have birdie the duck, you have
storm, you have cohort.

67
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:13,600
So it's like we we in this
series with four very strong

68
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:18,800
women characters who literally
say the fucking multiverse.

69
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:20,480
Yeah, this.
Literally this.

70
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,400
Literally the Watchers version
of Charlie's Angels.

71
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,160
And I am here for every last
piece of that.

72
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:30,440
Literally just awesome.
That's an interesting point,

73
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,000
Anthony.
What did you think about these

74
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,520
final 2 episodes?
I didn't hate them.

75
00:04:36,840 --> 00:04:38,200
I'll, I'll start.
With that, that's the start.

76
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,680
I didn't hate them.
OK, I'm going to, I'm going to

77
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:44,520
reference back to what I said
before.

78
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,360
I have to kind of step back and
just say, you know what it is,

79
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,880
what it is, and just kind of
enjoy it.

80
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:55,360
But it is very, very difficult
because now I'm looking at it

81
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,160
like objectively from a fresh
point of view.

82
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,720
These people are so freaking
overpowered.

83
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:06,480
Like they are so overpowered.
And then they go up against the

84
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,320
Watchers and he makes them even
more overpowered.

85
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:14,880
And then in the end, you, you in
order to defeat them, you had to

86
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:20,960
have an even more overpowered
individual, well, universe to

87
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,640
stop them.
And I don't know, I, I feel like

88
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,080
it was getting kind of out of
hand.

89
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:30,120
Like the there's a thing in
video games called power creep

90
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,120
and it even happens in comic
books.

91
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:38,400
Power creep is real.
And I I understand that it does

92
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,280
happen in comic books.
Like can you?

93
00:05:40,280 --> 00:05:45,240
Explain power creep, Sir.
Power creep is when when you

94
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:48,360
have individuals who are
powerful and then they have to

95
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,600
fight powerful people and in
order for them to defeat them,

96
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,280
they have to become even more
powerful.

97
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:59,160
For example, Jean Grey with the
Phoenix Force, so she gets more

98
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,520
powerful.
She's like reality, she's like

99
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,280
the right now.
She is the creation of life

100
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:07,800
itself.
And then the villain comes in

101
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:11,640
who absorbs her power so she has
to become even more powerful,

102
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:15,840
which how can she be defeated if
she is so powerful?

103
00:06:16,280 --> 00:06:23,160
And here we have imagine Storm
who controls who's a mega level

104
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,960
mutant who control weather
anywhere anywhere.

105
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,200
She has me on here, which means
her the God of Thunder

106
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:37,880
everywhere.
And now she's a watcher there.

107
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:42,880
I don't know she's and then we
were already told that Bertie is

108
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:47,640
a cosmic being who is ultimately
OP.

109
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:53,440
And then you have cohortie who
does whatever she can, like

110
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:57,040
super speed.
I got you flying, I got you

111
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,600
portals.
I got you telekinesis.

112
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,080
I got you.
What can she not do?

113
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:07,200
And I'm, I'm looking at this
group, these these guardians of

114
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:12,080
the multiverse and I'm like,
wow, how are they going to

115
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,560
defeat the watchers?
The answer is obvious, become

116
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:19,280
watchers.
And, and it was ridiculous.

117
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,120
I will give them credit for the
special effects.

118
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:25,680
Like it made me think of the
first episode, like how good the

119
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,520
animation was.
It was really, really good.

120
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:32,080
Really fantastic voice work,
really fantastic.

121
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:38,840
Not feeling the story too much.
I, I watched it again this

122
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,240
afternoon and I found myself
laughing.

123
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,160
This is funny.
I'm like, this is, this is

124
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,040
ridiculous.
It really is.

125
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,880
But you know, it is cool.
I'll see what they're doing.

126
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:55,280
You know, I think they're
getting us ready for because

127
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,000
we're going to see something
like this when we get to super

128
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:02,920
wars probably.
And you know, hopefully they

129
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:07,120
don't go to Supreme Strangers
universe to have the Street of

130
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:08,720
Wars.
They'll just shed everybody's

131
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:10,520
powers off.
They call it the day.

132
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:16,720
I did like the Eminences opening
when if you listen to it, it's

133
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,160
really, really good.
It's really good.

134
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,480
The one thing he said is, I
can't remember what he said, but

135
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,360
he basically was like, no, it's
not.

136
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,000
He described it and he said, but
that's not what it is.

137
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:30,880
This is what people think it is,
but that's not what it is.

138
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:36,440
What it is, is a prism through
which there's an infinite number

139
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:38,640
of universe.
Possibilities.

140
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:40,640
Yeah, possibilities.
Yeah.

141
00:08:40,799 --> 00:08:44,880
And he explains, he says, where
every little decision can cause

142
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,600
a change.
And that's the nature of what

143
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:49,440
if.
I just don't feel like we got

144
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:53,360
it.
So I kind of feel bad they they

145
00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:56,320
went back to that and put that
in his mother log when that's

146
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,040
really not what we got this
season.

147
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:02,280
But I mean, overall it, it was
OK.

148
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:07,240
I mean, I can see how people,
some people would enjoy it and

149
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:12,240
think it's amazing and you know,
be excited about it, but it was

150
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:13,040
just alright to me.
OK.

151
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:17,400
I like the last episode, not the
last episode, but I like the

152
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,240
previous episode with Sean Sheen
better.

153
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,160
OK, Yeah.
Than both of them.

154
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:25,880
Yes, than both of them.
OK, yes.

155
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:31,920
So when the Infinity Ultron kind
of let me down, I was like,

156
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:36,800
dude, really did all that power.
But you know.

157
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:39,800
Yeah, but it's like.
It shows you how powerful the

158
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,200
watches are.
This guy wiped out the entire

159
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,240
universe and.
But look but you gotta think

160
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,240
about like this too.
When he was fighting the

161
00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:50,040
Watcher, the Watcher was given
was was giving as good as he was

162
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,960
getting for a second until until
Ultron caught him.

163
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:55,840
Like he was literally he was
literally giving him those

164
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:56,960
hands.
So yeah.

165
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,200
It was like, oh, surprise,
surprise.

166
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,000
He flashed a bright light in my
face.

167
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:03,680
OK, now I'm used to it.
Right.

168
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,920
And then but it's like, because
Awatu got his power from

169
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:10,440
Eminence, so it's like Eminence
has been a watcher for way

170
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,640
longer than Watu has.
So you know, his power level is

171
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:15,960
probably ridiculous.
All three of them.

172
00:10:16,560 --> 00:10:17,760
Exactly.
Yeah.

173
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,960
And Ultron can save reality, but
you know.

174
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:24,080
Whatever.
Yeah, but it's like they

175
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,600
basically are.
They basically are reality.

176
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:31,600
Yeah, yeah.
I think for me, I kind of fall

177
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,440
in between both of your
opinions.

178
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,280
I enjoyed the episodes.
I won't say they were my

179
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,840
favorite.
There were certain elements of

180
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:44,560
it that I really liked.
I really liked the friendship

181
00:10:44,560 --> 00:10:48,520
aspect between the women in the
episode, just kind of seeing the

182
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:54,480
closeness and seeing how well
they work together in order to

183
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:59,560
figure out the problem, in order
to, you know, execute a plan and

184
00:10:59,560 --> 00:11:01,520
do all this.
I like that.

185
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:08,800
I think the weird thing for me
was at the beginning of the

186
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:14,840
episode when the you know,
they're they're trying to help.

187
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,320
Oh my God, why did her, why did
my name, why did that?

188
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:23,200
Why did I just blank they?
They went to go help, not

189
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:24,680
Gamora.
Yeah, Nebula.

190
00:11:24,680 --> 00:11:26,720
Novus Prime.
Nebula Which prime?

191
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,120
Which was really weird.
I'm glad they I'm glad they

192
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:32,960
threw back to that because I
think that that episode is one

193
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,320
of my favorite episodes of all
the what ifs.

194
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,560
I think that's probably one of
my one of my all time favorites.

195
00:11:37,560 --> 00:11:42,800
Yeah, but when they when the
shards come through and Peggy

196
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,720
sees the shards that she
realized it's from the Watcher

197
00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:52,640
from the 5th dimension or from
the the Wood observational

198
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:53,880
plane.
Observational plane.

199
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:57,040
When she realizes it's from the
observational plane and she

200
00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:00,560
realizes it's for the watcher,
she is actually not the one that

201
00:12:00,560 --> 00:12:01,880
voices it.
It's cohorted.

202
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:07,120
It says that means the watcher.
And it was strange to me because

203
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:10,960
I think we talked about this a
few episodes ago where only a

204
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:15,360
few people knew about Owatu's
existence and that being Peggy

205
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:18,400
Carter, that being Natasha
Romanov.

206
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,720
And I really think that's it.
Infinity Ultron knew he existed.

207
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:26,120
Infinity Ultron.
Infinity Ultron, but for cohort

208
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:27,320
and.
Storm.

209
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:33,480
And birdie, birdie the duck to
all kind of know who he is.

210
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:38,240
And it seemed like they had not
just a surface level knowledge

211
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:43,200
of him, they kind of knew, I
guess, everything that Peggy

212
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:45,240
knew about him.
So it was just kind of weird.

213
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:46,680
Yes, Anthony, you have your
hand.

214
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:51,480
Up in in my head cannon, I
assumed I may be right or wrong.

215
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:57,400
I assumed that Peggy put this
team together with his help.

216
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:02,840
So you know, 'cause I mean, I
lovingly call them the Guardians

217
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,360
of the Multiverse after the
previous guardians of the

218
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:08,600
Multiverse.
But I think he and her, which

219
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:14,840
is, you know, according to the
eminence, she's the wicked, you

220
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:21,400
know, she had, she used his
knowledge to find the people

221
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:23,840
that can help her do what they
need to do.

222
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:26,880
OK.
And I think that's how they knew

223
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:28,760
about him.
I think they may have talked

224
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:32,720
before they met him.
Well, you know, or Peggy told

225
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,640
them about him, but she was, she
put this team together.

226
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:38,640
Yeah, yeah.
And I realized that there's also

227
00:13:39,560 --> 00:13:42,400
not necessarily time jump, but
it's been a while because the

228
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,360
last time we saw Bertie, she was
just born and now she's a she's

229
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:49,440
a full grown adult.
So I realized some time has

230
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:52,120
taken place and some things may
have happened in between there,

231
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:56,120
but it was just strange for me
for them to be speaking about

232
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:59,840
the watcher and the
observational plan and all of

233
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:02,560
that.
So familiar, you know, they

234
00:14:02,560 --> 00:14:06,240
were, they were.
So it was just, it was strange

235
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,320
to me.
Yeah, and Peggy probably told

236
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:10,200
him about the stuff that he's
done.

237
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:14,000
She probably told him about
Infinity Ultron because they're

238
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,080
like, oh really?
You want to get that guy, but

239
00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:18,680
he's dead?
Well, it's multiverse.

240
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:20,840
Yeah.
There's a version of him out

241
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:21,640
there somewhere.
Yeah.

242
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,720
Yeah, which is which is really
intimidating to think about.

243
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:26,360
Like that's a powerful
motherfucker.

244
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:29,320
They're like more versions of
this motherfucker out there that

245
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:32,840
they need to destroy.
Also, I kind I agree with you

246
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:38,840
because like when they first
reached Xandar, Peggy was in the

247
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,960
in the cane capsule and she said
set course for Xandar 625.

248
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:44,800
I have eyes on the Hydra
champion.

249
00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:48,720
So there are they're obviously
doing something where they're

250
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:54,040
either they're course correcting
things that are going wrong or

251
00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:57,440
like, like I said, they're
they're watches angels.

252
00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:01,720
They've been like he's basically
sending them on missions to to

253
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,120
fix things in the multiverse
that aren't supposed to be

254
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,520
happening, mostly because
they're his.

255
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,880
Fault being a being a menace
because he's like.

256
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,040
But but all these things are his
fault because he's the one

257
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:14,840
that's doing all this extra shit
and not just watching like he's

258
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:16,920
the one that's interfering.
So all his interference is

259
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,880
probably are doing having a
butterfly effect on the whole

260
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:21,920
multiverse.
Like when you say that kid from

261
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,840
getting thrown off the train in
the previous episode, he

262
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,600
probably created a butterfly
effect that probably created

263
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,760
this hydra on Xandar.
It's like they're all kinds of

264
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:34,600
things that he these fucking
balances up and that's why all

265
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:36,680
three of them are like real this
motherfucking.

266
00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:41,360
And I'm tired of this because.
Yeah, because I'm sort of, I

267
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:46,200
sort of agree with the Eminence,
because he probably has.

268
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:50,320
He's seen every permeation of
every possibility, period.

269
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,400
If it wasn't for a while too, we
wouldn't have.

270
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:57,080
Doctor Strange wouldn't have his
own universe, right If it wasn't

271
00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,320
for a while too.
A lot of the stuff that's

272
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,240
happening wouldn't be happening
if he kept his mouth shut.

273
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:09,320
Infinity Ultron wouldn't have
done what he did, which created

274
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,040
all this other crap that's
happening.

275
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:17,240
So he sort of has a point.
I mean, but why too has a point

276
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:20,280
too.
Like, at what point do you how,

277
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:24,320
how much can you sit by and, and
not do anything and not start

278
00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:27,040
caring for people?
But you know, the Eminence has

279
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:30,280
had eons to deal with that
question.

280
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:35,960
And it seems like Oahu they
didn't because, you know, even

281
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:40,640
when they did the flashback to
when Oahu was promoted to

282
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:44,840
watcher, he said he asked the
question like, basically, what

283
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:46,800
what are we supposed to do with
watching?

284
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:51,240
And the Eminence is like, well,
I'll be surprised to find out

285
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:52,880
what answer you found to that
question.

286
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,040
Well, you found out what the
answer was to that question.

287
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:01,800
You know, so he sort of he could
be blamed for setting these

288
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:06,599
events in motion because he
should have seen how you even by

289
00:17:06,599 --> 00:17:10,359
his question.
Like anytime you have a person

290
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:13,760
entering into a cult that starts
to question what the cult is

291
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:17,760
doing, that can create problems
for the cult because then that

292
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:21,280
person is starting to question
the dogma that we've created.

293
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:23,720
Then that person might become a
problem.

294
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,720
And the watch who became a
menace, he started messing with

295
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:30,080
things and was probably going to
cause the collapse of the

296
00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,160
multiverse in the imminence.
They're sitting there.

297
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:33,400
Well, it's not going to affect
us.

298
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,800
It probably has happened before.
We don't know.

299
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:39,680
He's probably seen a lot of this
stuff happened before and he's

300
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:41,360
like, yeah, it's going to work
yourself out in the end.

301
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,760
A watch is probably not the
first one of the watchers that

302
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:46,640
he's had to rein in and get rid
of.

303
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,320
Like he's probably he's probably
made of the watchers.

304
00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:52,040
Then they interfered and they're
like, Nope, get him.

305
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,560
And they and that's why that's
why they had an opening for Y2

306
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,240
because they just got rid of one
that was doing the exact same

307
00:17:58,240 --> 00:17:59,480
fucking thing that he's doing
now.

308
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:04,520
So it's like, you know, he just
can't, he just can't get this

309
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:08,080
column column Y2 can't get right
because he just can't do what

310
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:09,240
he's supposed to fucking do.
Let's.

311
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:11,600
Say.
That, but I kind of agree with

312
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,040
the Y2.
Yeah, that's what I was going to

313
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:17,240
say, because it's kind of like
if you're one of the things

314
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:20,200
about the, I can't remember what
the the collective group is

315
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,640
called the three watchers that
are over everything.

316
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:28,160
One of the things about them is
they're watching the watchers

317
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,840
and the watchers are the ones
who have their own sections of

318
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:33,840
the universe of the multiverse
to watch.

319
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:40,040
So it's kind of like you
wouldn't expect those 3 to be

320
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:44,800
changed by anything because they
are not really watching anything

321
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:49,600
or paying attention to anything
closely enough to be affected on

322
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:53,600
the level that a Watu is.
A Watu is actually watching

323
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,640
these beings in this particular
part of the universe.

324
00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,160
He's seeing their struggles,
he's seeing their stories.

325
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:04,480
He's, he's being affected by the
humanity of them, which I don't

326
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:09,880
think the other three would ever
have the opportunity to do

327
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:14,280
because they don't interact with
humans directly or indirectly.

328
00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:17,280
You know, it's kind of like 6°
of separation.

329
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:22,440
So while I understand what the
Eminence is saying as far as

330
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:27,880
what Owatu was expected to do or
how he was expected to behave, I

331
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:33,800
think because Owatu was so close
to humanity and he was able to

332
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,640
allow it to change and whether
whether he wanted it to or not.

333
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:40,880
But that's one of the things I
think about people when it comes

334
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:44,240
to like cosmic beings and
humanity and universe, because

335
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,520
all of these cosmic beings, no
matter what type of show we

336
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:51,080
watch, they always think they're
more superior to humanity,

337
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:53,600
right?
Because we have the emotions and

338
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:57,040
we're the ones who let those
emotions kind of affect the way

339
00:19:57,040 --> 00:19:59,480
we the way we think, the way we
act.

340
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,680
We don't kind of keep ourselves
arm's length.

341
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,280
And I think that's one of the
things that Owatu.

342
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,920
Is trying to as like he says at
the end, this is something that

343
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:13,760
I can teach you because it
doesn't have to be a bad thing.

344
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:17,760
It's almost like when Infinity
Ultron was talking about it, he

345
00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:23,120
said, you know, I was created
to, you know, bring about peace

346
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:26,560
and in order to bring about
peace, I eliminated all life.

347
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:30,600
But what I have learned is that
this is not peace.

348
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:34,600
It's just emptiness.
Like you can't have life without

349
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:39,640
people, but you can't also can't
have peace without conflict.

350
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:43,560
Like there has to be a balance,
yin and Yang, you know?

351
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:45,560
There has to be that balance in
the universe.

352
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:50,000
And I think that's one of the
things that Owatu was trying to

353
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:52,880
tell the other three.
But the other three, they're so

354
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:58,320
far removed from it that they
don't have the, the openness to,

355
00:20:58,360 --> 00:21:01,520
to actually sit there and listen
to what he's saying or to look

356
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:06,120
at what he's doing, to say, hey,
he might actually be improving

357
00:21:06,120 --> 00:21:08,800
things.
You know, it may be catastrophes

358
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:10,720
for them or maybe chaos for
them.

359
00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:15,200
But it's because you're so set
in this one focus, this one

360
00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,120
thing.
Oh, it has to go this way, this

361
00:21:17,120 --> 00:21:19,960
way, this way.
And you don't allow for those

362
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:22,520
variables.
Maybe that's why things are

363
00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:24,880
fucking up, because y'all are so
inflexible.

364
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:29,840
Maybe it has nothing to do with.
Him I had, I had two points I

365
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:31,720
was going to make.
I can only remember 1.

366
00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:38,200
So you, you got the three.
It is this, this is one of my

367
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:43,320
issues with the eminence and
it's sort of related to kind of

368
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,320
piggybacking off of what
Hanukkah said.

369
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:49,880
They are literally sitting in
their white tower removed from

370
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:54,440
everything, and they have this
elitist attitude about

371
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:58,040
everything.
Like completely we are above

372
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:01,080
reproach.
We are above all of this.

373
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:02,840
But that's not.
Topical excuse.

374
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:05,760
Me.
That's not topical at all.

375
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:11,400
Yeah, you, you, you are.
And, and nothing and nothing can

376
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:13,120
touch you.
And everything that you're doing

377
00:22:13,120 --> 00:22:17,400
is so altruistic and so perfect.
Like, who appointed y'all to

378
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,000
this position?
You appointed yourselves to this

379
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:24,600
you and it's very similar to how
they're they're looked at in the

380
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:26,720
comic books.
If you watch the comic books, a

381
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:31,080
lot of people got problems with
the watchers because you are

382
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,760
doing what you're doing, because
you decided that's what you want

383
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:35,560
to do.
No one asked you to be a

384
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:38,400
watcher.
No one appointed you to be the

385
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:42,440
the scribe for the multiverse.
No one asked you to do that.

386
00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:45,640
You chose to do that.
So by you not participating, you

387
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:49,680
not helping people, and you not
being a part of the process,

388
00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,680
you're making it worse for a lot
of people than they could be.

389
00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:58,360
But I understand.
I understand them completely.

390
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:00,320
There's an infinite number of
multiverses.

391
00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:04,520
There's no possible way one
being can destroy them all,

392
00:23:05,360 --> 00:23:08,800
because for everyone that you
destroy, another one springs up

393
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:12,480
because every decision, every
consequence creates another

394
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:16,240
universe.
So it's not possible to get rid

395
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,200
of all of them.
I understand that.

396
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:20,880
What?
In that same token, it didn't

397
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:24,680
hurt you to help some people
every once in a while, and

398
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:27,680
that's what the Wachu was doing.
He had his little section of

399
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:29,240
multiverses that he was
watching.

400
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:33,840
And if he can make a difference
to help, how many times is he

401
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,880
going to have to sit there in
his section universe and watch

402
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:42,560
Ray Williams die like every
version of her die over and over

403
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,200
and over again?
I give you this one a chance.

404
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:46,640
Let me give you this one a
chance.

405
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:51,160
And what you do, like you said,
you prune some of the bad ones

406
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:54,000
and it causes life to flourish.
Right.

407
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:58,400
So he saves her how many
multiverses that are created

408
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:01,680
where she makes a difference and
changes people's lives for the

409
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:05,520
better?
Yeah.

410
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:07,800
That's the truth.
It's the butterfly I.

411
00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:11,920
Can't remember the point but.
Anything, anything you do in one

412
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:14,440
universe is going to
inadvertently or advertently

413
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:16,600
affect what's going to happen in
another universe.

414
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:20,160
It's just how things are.
It's just how it works in these

415
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,640
kind of scenarios, in these kind
of situations.

416
00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:26,240
It's like there's always
something minor that you change

417
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:29,640
somewhere that's going to wreak
havoc somewhere else.

418
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,280
It's like so and.
That's why watchers get their

419
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:34,960
asses kicked in the comic books,
because people don't like what

420
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:37,720
they do.
You sit there off to the side,

421
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:40,200
and you watch all this pain and
suffering, and you could do

422
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:41,880
something to help, and you
choose not to.

423
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:43,080
Yeah, it's wrong.
Yeah.

424
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:44,400
What's?
Wrong.

425
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:46,720
I think Reed Richards tried to
wipe them out once.

426
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:50,280
I mean, they did terrible they
are.

427
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,760
OK, so Speaking of watches
getting the ass kicked, let's

428
00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:57,480
talk about this fight scene.
And this is one of one of the

429
00:24:57,480 --> 00:24:59,920
best anime fight scenes Disney
has ever put on.

430
00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:02,720
Like that shit looks straight up
like Dragon Ball Z.

431
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:06,000
Like when when and The Eminence
were fighting, it's like their

432
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,280
hands were moving so fucking
fast.

433
00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:12,800
Like, Oh my God.
I mean, it was, there was so

434
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,920
many, there were so many aspects
to it because yes, I did get a

435
00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:19,160
Dragon Ball Z vibe to it when I
saw some of it.

436
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:23,680
And then there was a point where
I can't remember which one it

437
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:29,480
was Cohort was fighting one and
then another one appeared behind

438
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:34,520
her and he was, he was enlarged.
And she was like, oh, that's

439
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:36,600
what you're doing.
OK, bet.

440
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:39,480
Let me match that.
And then she got big too.

441
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:45,680
And it kind of reminded me of
the Agatha and Kingo fight from

442
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,200
a few episodes ago where they
were both kind of these

443
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:51,360
celestial beings that were like
bigger than everything they were

444
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:52,320
fighting in space.
One that.

445
00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:57,200
Starts with a yeah.
Ash.

446
00:25:58,280 --> 00:25:58,840
Ash, Ash.
Ash.

447
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:02,760
Yes, Ash.
So yeah, it was.

448
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:07,440
There was a lot going on in
those fights, but I love the way

449
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:11,040
that they did them because like
you said, Anthony, you know,

450
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:15,760
when you start out, you have
these four people and they're

451
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:20,320
already overpowered.
They're already very powerful.

452
00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:22,920
And and the fact that you have
all four of them fighting

453
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,840
together on the same team, and
then you have Infinity Ultron,

454
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:27,440
which was already weird e-mail
watch.

455
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:29,440
It was like, wait, he's with
you.

456
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:35,600
Yeah, yeah, he's with us.
But then you have a watch when

457
00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:37,640
when they're on the verge of
defeat, a watch.

458
00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,360
It was like, OK, look, there's a
way for us to get out of this,

459
00:26:40,360 --> 00:26:41,680
but you're going to have to make
a oath.

460
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:45,240
And they're sitting there like,
so you want us to become like

461
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:46,600
them.
And Storm was like little we'll

462
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:49,200
figure it out afterwards.
Just say the damn word so that

463
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:50,520
we.
Can yeah yeah, yeah birdie

464
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:54,000
birdie was like can I can I see
can I see the much we'll call it

465
00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:58,720
what she say she's a she wanted
she wanted to see the bylaws

466
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:00,560
before before she agreed to it
you.

467
00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:03,080
Don't have time to do that
because you're getting your ass

468
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:04,880
whooped.
They didn't have time to go

469
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:08,240
through the four pages of Quote
of of Oats that he tried to have

470
00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:11,720
them have them a repeat too.
He was like, I state your name

471
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,280
will solemnly swear to that and
I'm like, you ain't got time for

472
00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:15,840
that.
I'm like, why are you going

473
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:17,800
through 4 pages of what you
going to do?

474
00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:21,800
I'm like fuck it, just say I do.
Right, right.

475
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:25,880
And then that that image of them
all in the suit.

476
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:29,360
And this is the first time that
we actually see Oatu with legs.

477
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:33,200
You know, it's kind of like that
they've all got these these

478
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:34,880
suits on and they're all
glowing.

479
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:39,840
And I was just like, OK, so
we're on a more level playing

480
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,240
field.
And it still was it?

481
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:46,600
Because it's almost like it was
like watching a old 80s

482
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:51,120
wrestling match with Hulk Hogan.
It's like you have you have one

483
00:27:51,120 --> 00:27:54,440
side that's kind of overpowering
and you looks like and and it

484
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:56,600
looks like the other team is
about to be defeated.

485
00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:59,480
And then all of a sudden they
have their Hulk Hogan moment.

486
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:01,240
And then it goes the opposite
way.

487
00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:06,600
This is kind of like who's going
to win and how and like are are

488
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:08,040
they actually going to have to
kill people?

489
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:11,920
Because you really thought at
some point that the, the the

490
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:15,800
women were going to kill the
eminence because he just

491
00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:20,560
wouldn't back down no matter how
they were getting defeated, no

492
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,040
matter what can because he
really thought, OK, you know

493
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,760
what, we got this.
We're the most powerful beings

494
00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:27,720
in the universe.
We we got this.

495
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:32,680
And every time they started
getting defeated, he just got to

496
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,480
a point we was like, no OK,
y'all just going to have to kill

497
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:36,320
me?
I'm not.

498
00:28:36,360 --> 00:28:38,040
I'm not giving in.
I'm not letting up.

499
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:42,520
I'm not doing nothing.
Even when even when the White 2

500
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:47,560
showed him mercy, he was like, I
ain't teach you everything.

501
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:50,880
Yeah, I'm trying to wipe them
people off out of existence.

502
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:53,440
And then you ain't got no power
but.

503
00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:56,600
When Agatha said mercy is
overrated when she was being

504
00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:59,880
pursued by the Salem 7.
I'm like you don't just don't

505
00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:03,640
no, just don't don't do that.
You yeah, I understand, but

506
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:09,280
don't like Nah, but I shout out
to shout out to Peggy grabbing

507
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,280
the walk, grabbing one of the
watchers by the roof of his

508
00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:13,520
mouth and rag doll again like.
That.

509
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:20,360
Was I was like.
I was thinking of the the the

510
00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:22,080
God moment from revenge.
But.

511
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:25,400
There was there was another
moment in this episode where one

512
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:28,360
of the where one of the three
watches did that with.

513
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:31,720
What's going birdie?
Was it?

514
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:34,000
Yeah.
And I was like, oh this is like

515
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:36,760
now kiss and boom.
And like smashed them together

516
00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,360
and.
I was like and and did this

517
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:40,160
thing.
Yeah, he was like.

518
00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:45,320
OK, and kiss.
Wow, I was like shit, that's.

519
00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:48,360
And I figured out that's why
they had to get of Infinity

520
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:53,880
Ultron because imagine Infinity
Ultron with watcher power that

521
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,400
that would have been a problem.
That would have been a huge

522
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:58,040
problem.
That would have been a problem.

523
00:29:58,040 --> 00:29:59,200
That would have been a huge
problem.

524
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:07,120
Yeah, yeah.
But so I'm kind of I guess I'm

525
00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:10,560
kind of torn because, you know,
these were the last two episodes

526
00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:15,160
for the What if series.
It's it's, it's done now and I,

527
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:18,480
I don't quite know how I feel
about.

528
00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:22,080
It I'm glad, I'm happy, kind of.
It's over.

529
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:25,080
I'm not.
We don't have to go back,

530
00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,280
revisit this.
If they're not going to do it

531
00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:31,680
right, then just don't do it.
And, and I guess that's the

532
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:36,600
that's the thing, because part
of me likes the anthology

533
00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:39,040
version of it, like you like you
like Anthony.

534
00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:43,120
But also I feel like the way
that they did the first two

535
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,120
seasons where you had these
little anthologies, but then

536
00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:49,840
they they kind of came together
to make a big bigger story.

537
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:52,560
Like we're kind of used to the
Marvel movies doing.

538
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:58,000
I like that part of it because
those first two seasons, they

539
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:02,960
made sense in a way, you know,
as far as what the end story was

540
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,760
for the first season, what the
end story was for the second

541
00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:09,520
season, how the how those
stories converge and, and make

542
00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:13,000
made this bigger story.
It made sense and it was good.

543
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:16,400
And I remember like going back
listening to our episodes,

544
00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:20,120
discussing that we all like the
first two seasons better.

545
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:22,720
They just, I don't know, maybe
the story was better, the

546
00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,080
writing was better.
The maybe it was just because

547
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:28,400
there were characters there that
we were used to seeing and

548
00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:32,600
seeing them in different verses
of themselves, like, you know,

549
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:37,160
T'challa being Star Lord and
Killmonger having, you know, the

550
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:40,320
the Black Panther powers.
It was just, I don't know,

551
00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:46,760
something about the first two
seasons felt more, I don't know

552
00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:50,600
if they felt more cohesive this
season, just it was kind of like

553
00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:55,280
all over the place.
I don't know if it was cohesion

554
00:31:55,280 --> 00:32:01,400
as much as it they were closer
to the spirit of the comic

555
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:04,760
books.
OK, Like what if Killmonger

556
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:09,120
became Black Panther and that's
that's the easy story to tell.

557
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:15,800
What if Pat Carter got the Super
soldier serum instead of Steve?

558
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:17,880
Right.
Easy story to tell.

559
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:20,760
You know what I'm saying?
Those are the kind of stories

560
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:26,520
that what if is known for in the
comic book world, those moments

561
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:32,080
that change everything, you
know, so we can think if we if

562
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:39,040
we think of think of the MCU
movies and you know, what if

563
00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:43,800
what if, what's his name
defeating Iron Man in Iron Man?

564
00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:46,360
2:00 What if he had actually
killed him?

565
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:50,120
Like what, what would be the
ramifications of that, you know,

566
00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:56,440
or what if they never found Cap?
How would The Avengers have

567
00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:58,760
turned out?
You know what I'm saying?

568
00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:03,400
So there, there are ways, there
are things that the decisions

569
00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:07,880
that create the what ifs.
It it made a little bit more

570
00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:10,960
sense in those first couple of
seasons, a little bit.

571
00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:17,600
The T'challa and Star Lord is
still weird to me, but it was

572
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,920
fun.
I mean, this this season still

573
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:23,240
had something.
I mean, the one with the Red

574
00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:27,120
Guardian and The Winter Soldier
was was was basically a what if.

575
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:29,360
Like what if, what if Red
Guardian stopped The Winter

576
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:32,040
Soldier from complete, I mean,
from killing Howard Stark.

577
00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:34,560
Yeah, that's that's a what if.
Yeah.

578
00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:38,080
But we didn't, we didn't get a.
We didn't get a lot of that.

579
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:41,040
I don't see.
I mean, we didn't get much of

580
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:43,480
that.
I mean the one, the one with

581
00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:46,720
Rhode Island, Rhode Island is
was basically what if, what if

582
00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:50,600
the what if the what if the
eternal actually busted through?

583
00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:52,640
What would happen?
Yeah, what if the emergence

584
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:54,320
actually happened?
What if the emergence happened?

585
00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:56,960
I mean there.
I I see what you're saying

586
00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:58,480
though.
I mean there there's some that

587
00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:03,440
aren't that aren't as good of a
what if story as in the previous

588
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:05,400
ones.
Right, because if you based it

589
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:09,120
on the Eternals, you would say
it would have been an Eternals

590
00:34:09,159 --> 00:34:10,520
episode.
It wouldn't have been a Rio

591
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:14,480
Williams episode in my What if
the emergence had happened?

592
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:16,360
What if the Eternals didn't stop
the Emergence?

593
00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:19,080
Right.
It wouldn't necessarily have

594
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:21,920
been about RiRi Williams.
It would have been about the

595
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:24,440
eternal.
Well, I mean, after after the

596
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,360
emergence, I think the Eternals
are recalled anyway, so it's

597
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,199
like they couldn't have done
anything about it.

598
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:32,159
Yeah, it's like the the like
they would have been recalled by

599
00:34:32,159 --> 00:34:34,800
the Celestials to go to another
planet and start it all over

600
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:36,800
again.
That's true, the episode would

601
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:41,719
have could have been better
because it was too I guess.

602
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:45,760
I guess I'm saying it was too
much and it should be on a

603
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:47,159
smaller scale.
Yeah.

604
00:34:47,159 --> 00:34:51,480
Like what if?
What if Miss Miss Monroe had

605
00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:54,880
defeated or never you?
Know Mysterio.

606
00:34:55,199 --> 00:34:56,440
Mysterio.
Sorry.

607
00:34:56,719 --> 00:35:00,280
Mysterio.
Mysterio had hadn't had defeated

608
00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:02,160
Peter Parker.
Yeah, you know.

609
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:05,480
What I mean and then you, you
know I mean.

610
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:08,640
I think with that, like with
that episode also because you're

611
00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:11,160
pulling in so many different
elements, you you're pulling in

612
00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:14,520
the Eternals, you're pulling in
Riwill Ironheart, you're pulling

613
00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:18,280
in Spider Man.
And was there something else in

614
00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:18,880
there?
Oh, you're.

615
00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:24,360
Pulling a lot of things.
Yeah, you got Shangshi and and

616
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:27,840
Doctor.
So it it's so much there.

617
00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:33,360
Because I don't mind them using
those stories in those movies,

618
00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:36,480
but use them in a meaningful
way, like William Shine.

619
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:39,280
She hadn't stopped the thing
from coming through the wall,

620
00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:42,240
through the gate.
What would that have looked

621
00:35:42,240 --> 00:35:43,040
like?
Yeah.

622
00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:46,320
You know what I'm saying?
So so I guess that's what I'm

623
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:48,880
saying.
Like I, I wanted it to be more

624
00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:50,160
relevant.
Yeah.

625
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:54,840
To the to the stories that we
already know.

626
00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:57,400
And I guess it's kind of how it
is in the comic books.

627
00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:00,760
Yeah.
And I guess also too, it's kind

628
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:05,200
of like with the way that again
with the way the season 1 and

629
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:08,200
Season 2 happen, you have these
different stories with these

630
00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:11,760
certain characters and then at
the end of the season, they all

631
00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:16,960
came together for a particular
conclusion to that season.

632
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:21,600
First off with with these two
episodes, these last two

633
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:26,200
episodes of the whole series,
they really had nothing to do

634
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:28,560
with anything that's happened
this season.

635
00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:33,760
Nothing except for Birdie being
born Cohort was from last

636
00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:36,440
season.
We haven't seen Captain Carter

637
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:43,280
since last season Storm.
This was her intro into the MCU.

638
00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:46,640
What if Infinity Ultron last
season.

639
00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:51,760
So nothing that happened in this
season had anything to do with

640
00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:55,840
the these last two episodes.
And I think that's part of the

641
00:36:55,840 --> 00:37:01,200
issue I had with it, because
there doesn't seem to be a sense

642
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:03,840
of completion for me.
OK.

643
00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:06,200
Oh, that's I remember my other
point.

644
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:10,640
It was, it was almost like the
writers, whoever the writers

645
00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:14,200
were, were huge fans of Sliders
because that's that's how

646
00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:17,360
Sliders was.
And if people don't remember

647
00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:23,000
that what Sliders was, this
group of people ended up sliding

648
00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:27,120
trying to get back to the IT was
almost like a budget quantity.

649
00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:30,480
They weren't setting things
right.

650
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:31,800
They were just trying to get
home.

651
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:36,920
And so they were sliding through
the multiverse and and they

652
00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:40,080
would always either find a place
that was completely different,

653
00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:44,440
or they would find a place that
was very similar but slightly

654
00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:47,240
different.
But their goal was to try to

655
00:37:47,240 --> 00:37:50,840
find their way home sliding and
they had the time limit and

656
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:52,800
whatnot.
It felt like the people who

657
00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:56,520
wrote this were fans of that
show and baby fans of Quantum

658
00:37:56,520 --> 00:38:00,680
Leap and was like, oh, let's do
this instead of sticking to

659
00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:03,520
what?
Because I'll tell you the best

660
00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:06,760
episodes of OK, Quantum Leap was
like my favorite show of all

661
00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:09,680
time.
And some of the best Quantum

662
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:15,160
Leap episodes were not a part of
the main arc of the main arc was

663
00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:19,680
him getting back home.
Those stand alone episodes were

664
00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:22,440
the best.
You know, those stand alone

665
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:24,840
episodes were really, really
good.

666
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:28,280
Same thing with Sliders.
Sliders had a lot of faults with

667
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:30,120
it.
It was a it was a it was a very

668
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:33,720
entertaining show.
But whenever they got into the

669
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:38,280
feed into the long art and this
tried to tie all the multiverses

670
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:41,720
together, that's when it's sort
of getting a little weird and

671
00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:44,040
and strange.
And that's sort of kind of like

672
00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:48,480
the feeling I got with this.
It's like if you had an episode,

673
00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:52,280
what if Storm became the God of
Thunder?

674
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:55,360
Then that becomes related to
your big story arc.

675
00:38:56,240 --> 00:38:59,760
You know, they didn't do that.
You know, you had to go back to

676
00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:01,320
the previous season to get
Cohorty.

677
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:03,920
You had to go back to the
previous season to get Captain

678
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:06,600
Carter.
We got Birdie this season, but

679
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:08,040
she was.
A baby so.

680
00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:12,480
She was an infant.
And who's the other person in

681
00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:14,560
the group?
That.

682
00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:16,520
Was it that was it those four of
them?

683
00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:18,000
In Infinity.
Ultron.

684
00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:22,760
Yeah, but you, you didn't.
And I, I don't want to say it's

685
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:25,760
because I didn't get an episode
of Storm becoming the God of

686
00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:28,160
Thunder.
That would have been amazing.

687
00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:31,280
And they probably changed my
opinion of the season.

688
00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:34,120
But you can't just throw it in
at the end and not give us any

689
00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:35,960
context.
Right.

690
00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:38,280
I was a little, I was a little
peed about that too.

691
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:42,960
But my opinion, in my opinion, I
think this is just this is a

692
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:45,280
grab bag season because it's the
last season.

693
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:48,360
I think they had all the writers
write their ideas of what they

694
00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:51,880
wanted to happen and they put it
in a hat and they just went,

695
00:39:52,720 --> 00:39:56,240
let's see Avengers and mech
form.

696
00:39:56,240 --> 00:40:01,640
OK, we'll do that.
Let's see Wild West Chongqi,

697
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:04,240
sure, we'll do that too.
And then they just started

698
00:40:04,240 --> 00:40:06,720
pulling stuff out of a hat
because like you said.

699
00:40:06,720 --> 00:40:09,120
Everybody little storm,
Everybody little storm with me

700
00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:11,040
on here.
OK, let's throw it in.

701
00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:13,680
Yeah, yeah.
Everybody else tired of the

702
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:14,440
duck?
Let's go.

703
00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:16,800
Background just just put it put
it in the last two episodes, but

704
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:18,880
because they've been waiting for
it, just, you know, because

705
00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:22,040
that's what Marvel loves to do
is tease the tease X-Men any way

706
00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:24,560
they can without giving us a
proper payoff.

707
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:33,280
But and I just also, I think
that while I like this season,

708
00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:37,320
while there were there were some
parts of it I kind of I was kind

709
00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:41,480
of iffy on.
But All in all, I just kind of

710
00:40:42,720 --> 00:40:47,520
really try to, just like I've
taught Anthony this season, take

711
00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:51,880
just take every up as as an
individual episode and not as

712
00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:54,640
something that needs to blink,
tear here and here.

713
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:57,600
It's like it's not him that.
Huh.

714
00:40:57,680 --> 00:40:59,200
Who said he did?
You just said I did.

715
00:40:59,880 --> 00:41:05,760
Since a thank you.
Because it's like a perfect,

716
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:07,880
perfect example of that is the
Agatha episode.

717
00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:10,560
It's like I'm probably the only
one of the three of us that

718
00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:13,600
really actually like that
episode because you because she

719
00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:16,960
she doesn't like Agatha and
anything was just like me

720
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:19,640
because it wasn't.
It was a weird episode to be

721
00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:22,040
sure it had its problems.
Yes, it did.

722
00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:26,800
It did have its problems, but I
thoroughly enjoyed how they told

723
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:28,400
the story and that, but that's
just me.

724
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:31,000
I'm weird.
Let me say this they could have

725
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:34,520
given me a storm intro episode
instead of that Agatha episode,

726
00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:37,320
and that would have that would
have changed my because it

727
00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:43,160
because again and at the end,
these last two episodes, Agatha

728
00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:47,920
Kingo, none of those characters
that were in that episode had

729
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:49,840
anything to do with these last
two episodes.

730
00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:54,160
But you throw in Storm, who let,
OK, even though I know it's

731
00:41:54,160 --> 00:42:00,240
rare, somebody watching this who
may not be familiar with the

732
00:42:00,240 --> 00:42:03,680
X-Men, who may not be familiar
with Storm, they're probably

733
00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:05,840
watching this like, who is she
and why is she here?

734
00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:08,480
You know what I'm saying?
Like I said, I know it's rare

735
00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:11,480
because even if you're not an
avid comic book person, you

736
00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:13,600
pretty much know who Storm is
and.

737
00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:16,080
If you watched the last two
seasons of with you if you would

738
00:42:16,240 --> 00:42:19,240
still be like.
Right, right.

739
00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:22,720
Like the only the the only
people who will probably really,

740
00:42:22,720 --> 00:42:25,520
really be like, Oh my God, Storm
is in here are the people who

741
00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:29,800
watch X-Men 97 and this because
this is literally the same Storm

742
00:42:30,120 --> 00:42:33,880
from the X-Men 97 animated
series, because the voice

743
00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:36,200
actress is the same one.
Who was in Silly Smith?

744
00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:39,640
Yeah.
But yeah, they could have taken

745
00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:43,000
out that Agatha, especially
consider we just got a whole

746
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:46,520
series of Agatha.
They really didn't have to bring

747
00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:49,000
her into what if, especially if
there was going to be no payoff

748
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:52,200
for the care.
Do you think they did it like

749
00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:56,520
because they meant to put put
out what if before and then have

750
00:42:56,520 --> 00:42:59,640
it lead into Agatha?
Nah, Nah.

751
00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:02,680
OK.
That will say the same iron I

752
00:43:02,680 --> 00:43:05,320
would like because they because
they introduced Ironheart and

753
00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:07,240
they're leading into Ironheart
later this year.

754
00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:11,880
I would easy I would more easily
believe that the writers

755
00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:15,640
changed.
OK, that it was there she was

756
00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:19,480
probably either Hurricane was
probably going to be a part of

757
00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:25,600
the of the team at the end and
whoever was looking forward to

758
00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:27,640
doing the long term plan axed
it.

759
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:30,760
They not it's not going to work.
You know what I mean?

760
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:33,560
Yeah.
And then I I would I would

761
00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:36,720
believe that more than I believe
that they were trying to to lead

762
00:43:36,720 --> 00:43:40,480
in because you have a you
already know what your audience

763
00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:43,760
is going to be.
You don't have to advertise, oh,

764
00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:45,360
we're going to have an episode
of Agatha.

765
00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:48,960
I hope that you pull in those
handful of people that watch.

766
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:52,160
Right, because anybody who
watched One Division, they would

767
00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:55,240
have been, I mean, that's
literally the audience that was

768
00:43:55,240 --> 00:44:00,640
going to watch Agatha all along.
Because like I said, people were

769
00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:03,960
interested in in seeing what
this character was about, what

770
00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:07,400
her background was or whatever.
It just, for me, the series just

771
00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:10,520
didn't do what I thought it was
going to do.

772
00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:14,080
And to be realistic, the
audience for What if is not the

773
00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:16,320
same as the audience for Agatha.
Online.

774
00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:19,520
It's just not the same audience.
This is be real.

775
00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:21,720
It's not.
And the people who are going to

776
00:44:21,720 --> 00:44:25,520
watch what if are going to watch
what if, regardless of Agatha

777
00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:28,120
being the first episode or not,
now they would have been

778
00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:29,720
interested.
They're like, oh, that's that's

779
00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:32,120
interesting.
And if you had tied it back and

780
00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:35,480
put her in the last episode as
part of the guardians of the the

781
00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:38,680
multiverse, that would have been
something to be, you know,

782
00:44:38,680 --> 00:44:44,280
interesting in right Shan
Shanxi, not necessarily.

783
00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:48,640
You already have Captain Carter,
who is woefully be honest with

784
00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:52,240
you, under power to be on the
causes of multiverse.

785
00:44:52,560 --> 00:44:54,760
It's shame.
She just punches things, you

786
00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:57,520
know, which brings me back to I
don't what is marvel?

787
00:44:57,520 --> 00:45:00,160
What are they doing?
Like the thunderbolts against

788
00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:03,680
century?
Why, like what is the point?

789
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:05,560
How are they going to stop
century?

790
00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:08,920
If you watch the last trailer,
she's like, oh, all we do is

791
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:11,800
shoot bullets and punch things.
How are we supposed to stop

792
00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:13,200
this?
Exactly?

793
00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:16,040
Exactly.
So which brings me back to the

794
00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:18,080
point I'm trying to make about
Captain Carter.

795
00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:23,120
You can't have Shang Shi in last
episode because you got Captain

796
00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:25,280
Carter.
You can't have two of them and

797
00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:29,480
all they do is punch things and
one throws a shield.

798
00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:34,080
You see what I'm saying?
Like the person, whoever did the

799
00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:37,960
overall thing of this and
whatever their plan was, I'm

800
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:40,400
sure they had to abandon you.
That's probably why they brought

801
00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:48,680
forward in, That's probably why
they brought in storm, because

802
00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:51,560
the people that you started
with, it wasn't going to work.

803
00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:53,680
You know, it wasn't going to
work for them.

804
00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:56,680
Like, well, this, what we're
planning to do is not going to

805
00:45:56,680 --> 00:45:58,320
work.
And so we're going to have to go

806
00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:00,720
back to the drawing board.
So they rewrote it and that's

807
00:46:00,720 --> 00:46:06,880
what it feels like because other
than Birdie, none of the other

808
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:09,320
team members make any sense
based on the season.

809
00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:13,560
Yeah, they probably could have
brought Kingo in, and that would

810
00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:17,520
have made more sense because at
least Kingo is, you know, an

811
00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:21,520
eternal spawned by the
Celestial, so he might actually

812
00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:24,280
have the power.
Yeah, and that would have been

813
00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:27,280
and I would even be OK with
Peggy because Peggy's

814
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:30,520
relationship would want to you.
Know, yeah.

815
00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:33,360
And in that sense, if they were
going to bring anybody back from

816
00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:36,800
last season, they should have
brought Black Widow because he

817
00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:41,160
helped her out as well, you
know, and, and she, she was

818
00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:43,680
aware of him, she was aware of
what he did.

819
00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:47,880
So I think that would have that
would have made more sense to

820
00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:50,840
me.
So I, I don't know, it feels

821
00:46:50,840 --> 00:46:55,560
like there was a lot of of
things going on that they wanted

822
00:46:55,560 --> 00:47:00,440
to do and it didn't make sense
or they want to do other things,

823
00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:04,360
but you know, it is what it is.
Like, I'm sure they wanted to

824
00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:09,280
have Rea Williams in the last
episode, but because she owed

825
00:47:09,280 --> 00:47:13,640
him for saving her life, right?
And and that would have made

826
00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:16,520
sense.
So I don't know dope actually.

827
00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:21,440
Because she would have basically
have been like almost, I don't

828
00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:23,600
want to say like, if any go
Trump, but she would have been

829
00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:28,480
pretty damn close, you know?
Yeah, yeah.

830
00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:32,080
And if you want to make an all
girls team to do that, but

831
00:47:32,080 --> 00:47:34,240
someone probably said, well, we
got Storm, we can't have another

832
00:47:34,240 --> 00:47:35,760
black girl on the team.
That's not going to work.

833
00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:39,200
Yep, to win too dark you.
Know what?

834
00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:42,720
That's probably what happened.
But OK, so it's so talking about

835
00:47:42,720 --> 00:47:43,880
that.
This is the other thing that

836
00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:46,520
kind of irritates me that's
related to all of that.

837
00:47:46,960 --> 00:47:51,160
You have this all, you know this
this very powerful all girls

838
00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:56,440
team who is tasked with saving
the multiverse here, you know,

839
00:47:56,480 --> 00:47:58,640
fighting against the three
watchers.

840
00:47:59,280 --> 00:48:03,760
Again, going back to what we
just said, why leave Black Widow

841
00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:06,000
out?
She's she knew who want to us.

842
00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:09,000
She and her own right is
powerful.

843
00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:12,640
Yes, she is a human character
doesn't have any magic, but

844
00:48:13,080 --> 00:48:16,280
that's one of the things that I
feel like has always made that a

845
00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:18,520
Black Widow kind of valuable as
well.

846
00:48:18,840 --> 00:48:25,680
But again, you have someone who
was so important in in the first

847
00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:29,720
two seasons, you had Black Widow
and several of those episodes,

848
00:48:30,120 --> 00:48:33,960
but then kind of like they did
in the main MCU, you kill her

849
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:38,040
character off and she's not
involved in the end game battle

850
00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:39,800
at all.
Similar to this.

851
00:48:40,080 --> 00:48:42,320
She's so important in the first
two seasons.

852
00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:46,200
And then in the last season when
Peggy Carter, who by all rights

853
00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:50,240
in the first two seasons was one
of her best friends, she's

854
00:48:50,240 --> 00:48:52,400
nowhere to be found.
I have a problem with that.

855
00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:57,000
Yeah, like why would Piggy not
draft her to be to be on the?

856
00:48:57,280 --> 00:48:59,560
Garden Rd.
And how would be how would she

857
00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:03,880
be so, so close to the Storm
character that we've never seen

858
00:49:03,880 --> 00:49:07,320
before in this iteration?
Now, I'm not I'm not knocking

859
00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:11,000
that friendship or that
sisterhood, because we know that

860
00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:16,880
Storm has those close ties she
did with Jean Grey in X-Men 97.

861
00:49:17,040 --> 00:49:21,840
But here it just because you
just threw this character in at

862
00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:25,880
the very last minute.
It just really didn't make any

863
00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:28,240
sense.
I again, I'm not complaining

864
00:49:28,240 --> 00:49:29,760
about the fact that Storm is
here.

865
00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:31,520
I love the fact that she was
here.

866
00:49:31,680 --> 00:49:34,760
The fact that she came in with
Mona and they were like, oh, I

867
00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:37,800
didn't know Thor was here.
That we was like, no, that's not

868
00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:42,280
Thor.
But again, you give us no

869
00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:46,320
introduction to this character
in this particular universe.

870
00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:47,880
You don't give us any
background.

871
00:49:47,880 --> 00:49:52,600
You don't tell us how she came
to be part of Peggy's group.

872
00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:57,200
Again, you could have taken out
the Agatha episode, You could

873
00:49:57,200 --> 00:49:59,720
have put in a storm episode
introducing her.

874
00:49:59,720 --> 00:50:04,040
I would have been way.
It's all about contacts and

875
00:50:04,040 --> 00:50:06,680
connections.
It's like you can't, you can't

876
00:50:06,720 --> 00:50:10,720
have, you can't do both and be
good at both.

877
00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:14,520
You had to do one or the other.
Either you wanted the stories to

878
00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:21,200
be cohesive and connected to
lead to a cultivating moment, or

879
00:50:21,480 --> 00:50:24,040
you wanted to have these stand
alone episodes.

880
00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:29,080
The problem is if you do both,
you're going to kind of get some

881
00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:32,080
mixed messages, giving mixed
messages to your audience.

882
00:50:32,880 --> 00:50:34,640
So that's how you end up with
storm.

883
00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:37,920
Well, you didn't have the storm
episode, but you give us a

884
00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:40,640
storm, right?
Yeah, Also, go ahead.

885
00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:42,840
I'm sorry.
OK.

886
00:50:42,840 --> 00:50:46,240
Also also, right when Peggy was
getting ready to leave and try

887
00:50:46,240 --> 00:50:49,200
to recruit Ultron, she looked at
a picture of all the Guardians

888
00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:51,720
of the Galaxy and everybody was
in it.

889
00:50:51,720 --> 00:50:53,880
Like Bertie was in Accord, he
was in it.

890
00:50:54,120 --> 00:50:57,920
Also, Thor was in it, Gomorrah
was in it, Charlotte Starboard

891
00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:00,000
was in, and Black Widow was in
that picture.

892
00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:03,400
So there is a link where they
could have called any one of

893
00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:06,480
them to come and help them.
So it's like they knew, they

894
00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:08,360
knew each other.
They knew each other very well

895
00:51:08,360 --> 00:51:10,480
because the picture is a fun
picture where they're just,

896
00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:12,160
they're posing all wild and
shit.

897
00:51:12,600 --> 00:51:16,160
So it's like she could have gone
and got him anybody she wanted

898
00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:16,400
to.
Yeah.

899
00:51:18,240 --> 00:51:25,800
So I don't know, but I think
overall, I will say for the

900
00:51:25,800 --> 00:51:30,760
three seasons, I enjoyed most of
it more than I didn't enjoy it.

901
00:51:30,760 --> 00:51:34,120
I just think this last season
was just kind of all over the

902
00:51:34,120 --> 00:51:36,520
place.
And although there were episodes

903
00:51:36,520 --> 00:51:41,120
that I really did like in this
third season, I just don't feel

904
00:51:41,120 --> 00:51:48,440
like the ending, the finale that
we got matched three seasons

905
00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:50,560
worth of, of what we had been
getting.

906
00:51:50,600 --> 00:51:53,840
It just, I, I don't know, it
just feels incomplete to me.

907
00:51:54,720 --> 00:51:57,400
Oh I'm sorry, I just thought of
the Red Guardian in Winter

908
00:51:57,400 --> 00:51:59,600
Soldier episode.
What was the point of that?

909
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:03,200
Like what?
Did they do I want to, I

910
00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:08,800
probably want to say that is
that was more likely kind of

911
00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:10,400
what we just said a few minutes
ago.

912
00:52:10,720 --> 00:52:13,720
That's kind of giving us a
little bit of an introduction to

913
00:52:13,720 --> 00:52:16,200
those two characters together
before the Thunder.

914
00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:17,720
Before the Thunder that's.
What I think?

915
00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:20,120
Y'all were trying to do too
much.

916
00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:21,920
Y'all were trying to do too
much.

917
00:52:22,680 --> 00:52:23,560
Trying.
To do too much.

918
00:52:24,080 --> 00:52:25,960
But again, it's it's a typical
what if episode.

919
00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:28,960
It's like, what if the Red
Guardian stopped Winter Soldier

920
00:52:28,960 --> 00:52:30,720
from killing Howard Stark?
Yeah.

921
00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:32,880
And see that's.
A What if episode.

922
00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:39,960
Bother me as much, especially
considering we have seen Bucky

923
00:52:39,960 --> 00:52:43,520
in one of the, you know, in
other what if episodes so it's

924
00:52:43,520 --> 00:52:47,360
not like they just randomly
threw him in there and it was

925
00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:52,440
kind of like what?
If it is obviously an intro to

926
00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:55,840
the characters being together
for Thunderbolts, especially

927
00:52:55,840 --> 00:52:59,680
with the car chase scene on the
Route 66, yeah, we're going to

928
00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:03,760
see it in the movie.
In the movie, yeah, but I've

929
00:53:03,800 --> 00:53:07,640
noticed.
OK, so I when you think about

930
00:53:07,640 --> 00:53:10,840
that stuff, OK, we're going to
talk about Captain America,

931
00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:16,120
Brave New World later on.
But there was a certain thing

932
00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:19,920
that happened in that movie that
I was like, why didn't we get

933
00:53:19,920 --> 00:53:24,960
kind of a hint about that?
And what if last season I was

934
00:53:25,040 --> 00:53:27,960
like, oh, OK, we'll talk about
it later on because I don't want

935
00:53:27,960 --> 00:53:31,400
to spoil anybody who didn't come
here expecting Captain America

936
00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:33,520
spoilers.
But there's a certain there's a

937
00:53:33,520 --> 00:53:37,840
certain scene, a certain cameo
that happens in the movie.

938
00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:41,440
And it's like, what?
And then I thought I said, oh,

939
00:53:41,440 --> 00:53:44,000
wait, they did this and what if
last season?

940
00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:46,520
So, but yeah.
They did.

941
00:53:46,800 --> 00:53:48,240
They really did.
And.

942
00:53:49,760 --> 00:53:52,000
We'll talk about later, but that
was a freaking reshoot.

943
00:53:52,200 --> 00:53:55,720
It just threw that shit in there
and we're going to talk about

944
00:53:55,720 --> 00:54:00,560
that later.
But yeah, so I don't think that

945
00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:03,120
one that episode didn't bother
me as much.

946
00:54:03,680 --> 00:54:07,160
Also because you guys know how I
feel about Bucky, so I don't

947
00:54:07,160 --> 00:54:10,280
mind seeing a Bucky episode.
And I guess that's kind of

948
00:54:10,280 --> 00:54:13,800
biased because like Mike said,
I'm really not an Agatha fan.

949
00:54:13,800 --> 00:54:16,600
So I really could have done
without that Agatha episode.

950
00:54:16,600 --> 00:54:20,040
It wouldn't have bothered me.
Although I do like Kingo, but

951
00:54:20,960 --> 00:54:24,800
again, I just feel like a that a
missed opportunity for Storm

952
00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:29,360
episode was in there like they.
Just it was, it was definitely

953
00:54:29,360 --> 00:54:31,480
in there.
And when you step back, I mean,

954
00:54:31,480 --> 00:54:34,880
I know I said the same thing.
I liked that episode.

955
00:54:34,880 --> 00:54:36,920
Red Guardian Bike.
It was it was fun.

956
00:54:37,720 --> 00:54:41,680
But when you step back, it
doesn't really fit in the motif

957
00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:44,680
of the season.
Just like the Agatha episode.

958
00:54:45,400 --> 00:54:47,920
It it it really and or the Shang
Shi episode?

959
00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:50,400
Yeah.
You, you can't do, oh, if you

960
00:54:50,400 --> 00:54:53,040
got to do one or the other,
Yeah, you know.

961
00:54:53,640 --> 00:54:54,760
Especially.
They did.

962
00:54:54,800 --> 00:54:58,000
They did.
You, you actually follow a, a, a

963
00:54:58,240 --> 00:55:03,760
formula and to, to get to a, a
specific conclusion for the, for

964
00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:08,160
the season.
So yeah, yeah, but I don't know,

965
00:55:08,160 --> 00:55:11,680
I guess at, at, at this point
it's over.

966
00:55:12,240 --> 00:55:16,200
I'm kind of glad it's over now.
Like I, I really did love this

967
00:55:16,200 --> 00:55:19,360
show the first two seasons, but
like I said, this third season

968
00:55:19,360 --> 00:55:26,200
just felt a little disjointed
and unfortunately we've been

969
00:55:26,200 --> 00:55:32,400
feeling a a a lot about the MCU,
especially in the last phase.

970
00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:35,720
It's just kind of like hit or
miss and I don't know what's

971
00:55:35,720 --> 00:55:38,280
going on.
I don't, I don't know what what

972
00:55:38,280 --> 00:55:42,120
they're doing, but it just I
don't know.

973
00:55:42,120 --> 00:55:46,440
They really kind of they missed
an opportunity for this show to

974
00:55:46,440 --> 00:55:50,360
go out on a very high note.
You know, my personal opinion,

975
00:55:50,360 --> 00:55:53,040
it just didn't it, it just kind
of fell flat for me.

976
00:55:53,240 --> 00:55:56,840
Like, I, I liked learning more
about Oahu.

977
00:55:56,840 --> 00:55:59,880
I liked learning about his
history with the Watchers, how

978
00:55:59,880 --> 00:56:04,440
he became a watcher.
I like seeing his change of

979
00:56:04,440 --> 00:56:08,280
heart over the last three
seasons, how he went from this

980
00:56:08,280 --> 00:56:13,240
cold, unfeeling, oh, I'm just
observing, you know, type of

981
00:56:13,240 --> 00:56:19,080
person to a person who actually
through because of his

982
00:56:19,080 --> 00:56:21,840
connection to humanity.
I like seeing that.

983
00:56:21,840 --> 00:56:24,240
I like seeing, you know,
character growth and character

984
00:56:24,240 --> 00:56:29,760
change like that.
But I don't know, it just.

985
00:56:31,320 --> 00:56:34,520
Yeah, I just didn't.
It didn't do for me what I was

986
00:56:34,520 --> 00:56:38,400
expecting a final season to do.
So.

987
00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:41,440
Yeah.
I agree.

988
00:56:41,440 --> 00:56:43,840
I liked it.
I I, I was thoroughly

989
00:56:43,840 --> 00:56:45,520
entertained by all three
seasons.

990
00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:48,680
I I mean, there were, there were
sure, there were, there were

991
00:56:48,680 --> 00:56:51,920
some moments where you kind of
like, and that's questionable.

992
00:56:52,200 --> 00:56:56,360
But again, like I said when we
first started covering what if,

993
00:56:56,680 --> 00:56:59,960
this is probably one of my
favorite comic series of all

994
00:56:59,960 --> 00:57:03,920
time because it really sparks my
imagination where you kind of

995
00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:06,360
make up your own what if
scenarios when you read them,

996
00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:09,560
like it's like you can like
think of, Oh, well, what if?

997
00:57:09,760 --> 00:57:12,640
What if instead of Wolverine
having adamantium clause, psych

998
00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:17,600
OPS adamantium clause, or what
if, what if Nightcrawler had

999
00:57:17,600 --> 00:57:19,720
Charles Xavier's telepathic
ability?

1000
00:57:19,720 --> 00:57:22,120
Like, you know, it's like you
kind of you kind of throw

1001
00:57:22,120 --> 00:57:24,720
yourself into making up those
kind of scenarios.

1002
00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:29,800
And that's why I really, really
loved this series as a kid and

1003
00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:34,560
even as a teen, even as a really
young acting young ass acting

1004
00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:38,560
adult Gen.
Xer, I still love those love

1005
00:57:38,560 --> 00:57:41,600
those series.
And it was and again, we're in

1006
00:57:42,040 --> 00:57:44,720
it's like, it's like our friend
Laurie says we're in one of the

1007
00:57:44,720 --> 00:57:48,360
best, one of the best times to
be a geek because there's so

1008
00:57:48,360 --> 00:57:52,720
much nerd shit out that just
that people are getting greenlit

1009
00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:55,080
to actually put out like I
wouldn't know.

1010
00:57:55,080 --> 00:57:57,600
You thought in a million years I
would see what if comics being

1011
00:57:57,600 --> 00:58:00,240
made into cartoons or even new
ones being created and turned

1012
00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:03,520
into what ifs.
It's like this is really cool

1013
00:58:03,520 --> 00:58:07,960
for me and my teenage self when
I first found what if comics to

1014
00:58:07,960 --> 00:58:13,280
actually be able to see it on a
screen and be able to talk, talk

1015
00:58:13,280 --> 00:58:17,320
with other fellow nerds about it
and then be happy that I have

1016
00:58:17,320 --> 00:58:19,280
these things.
So I am ecstatic.

1017
00:58:19,280 --> 00:58:26,480
I love this whole series and I'm
I'm sad to see it go, but I feel

1018
00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:30,640
like this season kind of showed
that they were getting weary and

1019
00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:33,200
tired and just kind of throwing
stuff out there.

1020
00:58:33,200 --> 00:58:36,480
And, and if they did another
season, it would have just not

1021
00:58:36,480 --> 00:58:40,200
have had the same energy as it
had when it first started.

1022
00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:42,920
Like it's already starting to
get tired and I don't want to

1023
00:58:42,920 --> 00:58:44,760
see it.
I want to see something I love

1024
00:58:44,840 --> 00:58:49,000
just being really being
relegated and just kind of half

1025
00:58:49,000 --> 00:58:51,680
assed, you know, I'm saying.
So I'm kind of glad they're not

1026
00:58:51,680 --> 00:58:54,120
doing another one.
I wouldn't mind seeing a movie

1027
00:58:55,120 --> 00:58:59,520
about it, but yeah.
But I'm I still thoroughly

1028
00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:06,560
enjoyed most of these.
I I completely feel where you're

1029
00:59:06,560 --> 00:59:10,320
coming from.
I do What If is also one of my

1030
00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:15,480
favorite series and it has its
roots and the choose your only

1031
00:59:15,480 --> 00:59:18,360
adventure books for me.
Yes, absolutely.

1032
00:59:18,640 --> 00:59:22,320
You, you always think about the
different possibilities of

1033
00:59:22,320 --> 00:59:28,080
things that happen.
And, and I'm going to, I'm going

1034
00:59:28,080 --> 00:59:34,040
to talk my, our friend, friend
of the show, Nick and I always

1035
00:59:34,040 --> 00:59:37,320
get into these arguments.
I'm sorry, these heated

1036
00:59:37,320 --> 00:59:44,840
discussions, discussions about,
about just being happy that

1037
00:59:44,840 --> 00:59:48,640
something is being made.
You know, just be happy there's

1038
00:59:48,640 --> 00:59:51,760
another Star Wars TV show.
Just be happy that there's

1039
00:59:51,760 --> 00:59:54,480
another Star Trek movie.
Just be happy there's another

1040
00:59:54,480 --> 00:59:56,360
MCU.
It's not know where you're

1041
00:59:56,400 --> 00:59:58,080
going.
It's not enough for me.

1042
00:59:58,600 --> 01:00:05,040
I, I, it, it is not enough.
I need more quality, need need

1043
01:00:05,840 --> 01:00:08,640
consistency.
Just just because I'm a fan of

1044
01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:11,880
your show, just because I love
your property, just because the

1045
01:00:11,880 --> 01:00:16,200
initial property is my fandom,
doesn't mean I have to eat it.

1046
01:00:17,240 --> 01:00:20,440
I'm I'm trying not to curse I.
You don't have to.

1047
01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:23,360
What is that?
What is that told Nick?

1048
01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:25,840
Don't pee on me and call it
rain.

1049
01:00:26,400 --> 01:00:32,640
Don't do that to me.
I want I, I like OK.

1050
01:00:32,720 --> 01:00:38,200
I'm I'm, I'm as big a fan of
popcorn flicks as anyone.

1051
01:00:38,240 --> 01:00:42,920
I like going to the movies and
seeing, you know, if I go to the

1052
01:00:42,920 --> 01:00:46,400
movies and I, I see something
and I can enjoy it.

1053
01:00:47,640 --> 01:00:49,320
The John Wick movies are like
that.

1054
01:00:49,600 --> 01:00:53,520
You don't expect them to be, you
know, these great masterpieces

1055
01:00:53,520 --> 01:00:55,640
of work.
They're fun and entertaining.

1056
01:00:56,040 --> 01:00:57,720
That's how.
That's how fast and Furious is

1057
01:00:57,720 --> 01:01:01,320
for me.
Fast and Furious, as much as I

1058
01:01:01,320 --> 01:01:05,680
dog those movies, I still go and
watch them.

1059
01:01:06,080 --> 01:01:10,720
I still laugh and it it is a fun
time and it's fun to make fun of

1060
01:01:10,720 --> 01:01:15,920
those movies, but I can't.
For some reason, I have a hard

1061
01:01:15,920 --> 01:01:19,520
time doing that because the
expectation level that Marvel

1062
01:01:19,520 --> 01:01:24,240
has created and the quality of
the stuff that we're doing

1063
01:01:24,520 --> 01:01:28,080
versus what's happening now.
Like you started out at the

1064
01:01:28,080 --> 01:01:32,160
popcorn flick level with the
first Iron Man, you know, or

1065
01:01:32,160 --> 01:01:34,240
Blade.
Because Michelle and I recently

1066
01:01:34,240 --> 01:01:38,520
watched Blade again and Blade is
a fun movie, right?

1067
01:01:38,960 --> 01:01:42,920
It's not, it's not a great film.
It's got a lot of problems, but

1068
01:01:42,920 --> 01:01:45,840
it's a fun movie.
Expectation level's low, but

1069
01:01:45,840 --> 01:01:49,520
then when you get into The
Avengers, if you start getting

1070
01:01:49,520 --> 01:01:53,680
into end game and and movies,
that kind of matter.

1071
01:01:54,040 --> 01:01:56,520
That's why a man Quantum mania
was such a let down.

1072
01:01:57,640 --> 01:02:00,560
MCU.
They keep heaven Feige.

1073
01:02:00,960 --> 01:02:04,080
I'm going to blame him for it.
They keep putting out these

1074
01:02:04,160 --> 01:02:08,840
these properties and these
things that just aren't quality.

1075
01:02:09,120 --> 01:02:12,000
Like I can't even enjoy watching
secret invasion.

1076
01:02:12,000 --> 01:02:15,920
It's terrible.
You know, Eternals, this is an

1077
01:02:15,920 --> 01:02:18,600
artsy film.
I can enjoy it from an artsy

1078
01:02:18,600 --> 01:02:22,440
perspective, but I can see why a
lot of people didn't like it.

1079
01:02:22,560 --> 01:02:25,360
It was for them.
It was like it wasn't an MCU

1080
01:02:25,360 --> 01:02:28,080
movie.
It was just this, this thing

1081
01:02:28,080 --> 01:02:32,760
that that happens in the MCU.
So same thing with with Black

1082
01:02:32,760 --> 01:02:35,680
Widow movie.
I guess it was supposed to be

1083
01:02:35,680 --> 01:02:39,960
fun, but the Taskmaster was a
disaster.

1084
01:02:39,960 --> 01:02:42,600
Please.
Don't get Mike started.

1085
01:02:42,720 --> 01:02:44,560
Please don't get Mike started.
Stop.

1086
01:02:44,640 --> 01:02:46,480
I'm not.
And the movie hasn't even come

1087
01:02:46,480 --> 01:02:47,240
out yet.
I'm.

1088
01:02:47,680 --> 01:02:52,400
Not even I'm going to end.
I'm just going to say that I

1089
01:02:52,400 --> 01:02:53,800
understand where Mike is coming
from.

1090
01:02:54,320 --> 01:02:57,840
I would like to sit here and say
that you can watch with if just

1091
01:02:57,840 --> 01:03:00,800
for the entertainment value, but
it's hard because some of the

1092
01:03:00,800 --> 01:03:03,040
stuff just doesn't really make
any sense.

1093
01:03:03,040 --> 01:03:04,720
It's hard to be entertained by
something.

1094
01:03:05,080 --> 01:03:08,760
They just kind of like what?
Just leave your hands

1095
01:03:08,760 --> 01:03:11,600
scratching.
Like why is Storm here?

1096
01:03:12,120 --> 01:03:16,160
Just why?
Why you might as well could you

1097
01:03:16,160 --> 01:03:18,720
could have made-up a whole team
of of people we had never seen

1098
01:03:18,720 --> 01:03:23,560
before because it doesn't it
doesn't really work for me.

1099
01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:31,800
And we'll talk more about this
on our episode about Captain of

1100
01:03:31,800 --> 01:03:37,080
America and The Winter Soldier
part do because you know when we

1101
01:03:37,080 --> 01:03:40,800
talked about.
Incredible Hulk Part 2 We'll

1102
01:03:40,960 --> 01:03:43,320
we'll, we'll.
We'll, we'll, we'll come back to

1103
01:03:43,320 --> 01:03:45,360
that and we'll stick a pin in
it.

1104
01:03:45,400 --> 01:03:48,320
But the same thing that I'm
talking about now applies to

1105
01:03:48,320 --> 01:03:52,800
that, that thing that we're
going to talk about where this

1106
01:03:52,800 --> 01:03:55,760
don't give me a movie and be
like, here you go.

1107
01:03:55,840 --> 01:03:57,920
Enjoy.
Yeah, it doesn't work like that.

1108
01:03:58,200 --> 01:04:02,960
I would story time.
A long time ago, I used to take

1109
01:04:02,960 --> 01:04:06,960
Bailey to Brewster's.
I don't want to call it a date,

1110
01:04:07,000 --> 01:04:09,920
but you know, I would just take
her so we can hang out.

1111
01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:13,800
We get Brewster's ice cream.
And you know, this time,

1112
01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:16,720
Valentine's Day, I said, you
know what, it's been years since

1113
01:04:16,720 --> 01:04:18,440
I took her to get Brewster's ice
cream.

1114
01:04:19,200 --> 01:04:23,760
And I remember Bruce's ice cream
being so good that Brewster's

1115
01:04:23,760 --> 01:04:29,560
ice cream and now in my old age,
is overpriced.

1116
01:04:30,960 --> 01:04:34,600
And I'm eating ice cream and
it's freezer burn and I'm

1117
01:04:34,600 --> 01:04:38,600
sitting like, do I really
remember what it was like being

1118
01:04:38,600 --> 01:04:41,640
with her and hanging out with
her or has ice cream in the ice

1119
01:04:41,640 --> 01:04:44,040
cream has always been like this,
but I just didn't care.

1120
01:04:45,600 --> 01:04:47,520
Don't give me freezer burned ice
cream.

1121
01:04:48,680 --> 01:04:50,600
I really want some quality ice
cream.

1122
01:04:51,280 --> 01:04:54,720
Even if I didn't get it before.
You fooled me and made me think

1123
01:04:54,720 --> 01:04:56,640
that's what I was getting.
Just give me that.

1124
01:04:56,640 --> 01:04:59,640
That's what I want.
Does that make sense?

1125
01:04:59,800 --> 01:05:01,400
Yes.
Yes, I know, I know.

1126
01:05:01,400 --> 01:05:02,760
I kind of went off the rails.
I'm I'm.

1127
01:05:02,920 --> 01:05:04,320
I'm getting off the soapbox now,
no.

1128
01:05:04,760 --> 01:05:08,440
I mean, and no, no, I mean
related to that, I think that a

1129
01:05:08,440 --> 01:05:12,280
lot of it is nostalgia based,
just like a lot of things where

1130
01:05:12,280 --> 01:05:15,320
it's like you see something and
you're like, oh man, I remember

1131
01:05:15,320 --> 01:05:17,360
that.
And you kind of give it a pass

1132
01:05:17,360 --> 01:05:21,880
because it's something that
evokes a evokes a feeling and

1133
01:05:21,880 --> 01:05:25,560
evokes a memory for you.
So you're like, OK, it wasn't

1134
01:05:25,560 --> 01:05:27,720
the best written, it wasn't the
best acted.

1135
01:05:27,720 --> 01:05:31,680
The the effects were kind of
fucked up, but that's what it

1136
01:05:31,680 --> 01:05:33,320
is.
But but I actually got to see it

1137
01:05:33,320 --> 01:05:37,120
again, so it's fine, whatever.
And that's that's basically what

1138
01:05:37,120 --> 01:05:38,800
it is.
It's like you see things and

1139
01:05:38,800 --> 01:05:42,600
you're like, OK, well, you kind
of let things slide just so you

1140
01:05:42,600 --> 01:05:45,640
could get that feeling again.
It's like, it's like one of the

1141
01:05:45,640 --> 01:05:47,920
most addictive drugs is
nostalgia.

1142
01:05:47,920 --> 01:05:50,720
Nostalgia is one of the most
addictive drugs there is because

1143
01:05:51,040 --> 01:05:54,680
you get to see things where you
were happier and it gives you

1144
01:05:54,680 --> 01:05:57,440
that feeling again.
And you're like, oh man, I

1145
01:05:57,600 --> 01:05:59,240
remember that.
But then when it's gone, you're

1146
01:05:59,240 --> 01:06:02,480
like, shit, how can I feel that
way again?

1147
01:06:02,720 --> 01:06:05,280
And you keep going back forward
and back forward and back

1148
01:06:05,280 --> 01:06:07,560
forward.
It's just like, you know, it, it

1149
01:06:07,560 --> 01:06:11,360
really effects you like that.
We're we're all chasing the MCU

1150
01:06:11,360 --> 01:06:14,000
high.
Yeah, chasing the MCU dragon.

1151
01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:16,760
Chasing the nostalgia dragon.
Yeah, yeah.

1152
01:06:17,480 --> 01:06:22,600
So, OK, Well, I think we have
talked this episode to this at

1153
01:06:22,640 --> 01:06:24,240
this point.
Oh, Oh my God.

1154
01:06:24,240 --> 01:06:26,400
I got something to say.
What you got to say, Mike.

1155
01:06:27,160 --> 01:06:29,360
OK.
So first of all, shout out to

1156
01:06:29,360 --> 01:06:32,240
Allison Silly Smith for getting
another thing in the MCU.

1157
01:06:32,400 --> 01:06:34,480
I'm so glad that she's finally
getting her due.

1158
01:06:34,760 --> 01:06:37,760
That was awesome.
Her, DeVry Jacobs and Natasha

1159
01:06:37,760 --> 01:06:40,400
Lyonne were really good in this
episode.

1160
01:06:40,400 --> 01:06:44,280
I appreciated their efforts.
Shout out to Darcy for inventing

1161
01:06:44,280 --> 01:06:47,720
Trans Universal Communication so
she could keep track of Birdie

1162
01:06:47,960 --> 01:06:50,440
and ask her for the Donuts that
make her lose weight.

1163
01:06:50,680 --> 01:06:52,960
I need to find out exactly what
universe that's in so I can

1164
01:06:52,960 --> 01:06:57,560
handle that too.
Shout out to Birdie being a

1165
01:06:57,560 --> 01:07:01,120
mechanical genius just like her
mom and the levels of energy

1166
01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:04,600
that she created to see when
that pod could get to the other

1167
01:07:04,600 --> 01:07:08,120
dimension.
It started with Crapola, it went

1168
01:07:08,120 --> 01:07:13,800
to loser build the lame city,
then now we're talking, then rad

1169
01:07:13,800 --> 01:07:17,880
sauce, then straight fire and it
ended in money with look what

1170
01:07:17,880 --> 01:07:20,560
looked like Scrooge Mcduck in my
but I'm thinking it's probably

1171
01:07:20,560 --> 01:07:21,880
her.
It was probably Howard at the

1172
01:07:21,880 --> 01:07:24,560
end, but it looked like it
looked just like Scrooge Mcduck

1173
01:07:24,560 --> 01:07:25,760
and it had like the dollar
signs.

1174
01:07:25,760 --> 01:07:26,680
I'm like, that had to be
Scrooge.

1175
01:07:26,680 --> 01:07:27,760
Mcduck, Yeah.
Scrooge Mcduck?

1176
01:07:27,760 --> 01:07:30,080
Yeah.
I thought I'm like, and there's

1177
01:07:30,120 --> 01:07:32,240
and there's your, there's your
Disney MCU crossover.

1178
01:07:32,240 --> 01:07:37,120
Ladies and gentlemen, shout to
that Marvel fools table being so

1179
01:07:37,120 --> 01:07:39,480
fucking rad.
Like, I want one of those so

1180
01:07:39,480 --> 01:07:41,640
badly.
I can't play foosball for shit,

1181
01:07:41,640 --> 01:07:42,880
but I'm like, yeah, I gotta have
that.

1182
01:07:42,880 --> 01:07:44,960
I don't even like foosball.
It's like I gotta have it.

1183
01:07:45,080 --> 01:07:46,640
Exactly.
I'm like that shit, dope as

1184
01:07:46,640 --> 01:07:50,840
fuck, like I gotta have it South
to Heavy metal Storm hitting the

1185
01:07:50,840 --> 01:07:54,160
Shard with her hammer and the
fucking shredding and like the

1186
01:07:54,160 --> 01:07:57,640
wind blowing and her almost
getting there like that.

1187
01:07:57,720 --> 01:08:01,040
That really that that affected
the rock'n'roll part of me.

1188
01:08:01,040 --> 01:08:02,520
I was like, this is a dope ass
scene.

1189
01:08:02,720 --> 01:08:04,720
Oh, honorable mention what she
says.

1190
01:08:05,280 --> 01:08:08,560
I used to control nature.
Now I am.

1191
01:08:08,600 --> 01:08:10,320
I am nature.
Yeah, yeah.

1192
01:08:11,960 --> 01:08:14,720
Shout out to the three watchers
when they combine together to

1193
01:08:14,800 --> 01:08:18,640
clear out everybody's
everybody's multiverse at the

1194
01:08:18,640 --> 01:08:21,000
end, like when they were
spinning, they look like they

1195
01:08:21,000 --> 01:08:24,240
had three heads and remind me of
the living tribunal, which is

1196
01:08:24,240 --> 01:08:27,680
like a is a overpowered,
overpowered being in a Marvel

1197
01:08:27,680 --> 01:08:31,279
Universe that is like overall
and is like judging.

1198
01:08:31,279 --> 01:08:33,279
I'm like, I'm wondering if
they're trying to say that they

1199
01:08:33,279 --> 01:08:34,960
have the power to become the
living tribunal.

1200
01:08:34,960 --> 01:08:37,359
But it looked just like them,
just like a being with three

1201
01:08:37,359 --> 01:08:41,399
faces, and it looked really cool
that that animation with them,

1202
01:08:41,399 --> 01:08:46,080
like losing the the multiple
versions of them, like being

1203
01:08:46,080 --> 01:08:48,800
blown off of them was really
fucking cool.

1204
01:08:50,960 --> 01:08:53,960
Also, at the end, I was just
what that's what I was doing

1205
01:08:53,960 --> 01:08:57,279
while you were together talking.
I wrote down all of the at the

1206
01:08:57,279 --> 01:09:00,040
in the end scroll.
There were like versions of

1207
01:09:00,160 --> 01:09:02,439
superheroes that were flashing
by.

1208
01:09:02,800 --> 01:09:06,260
I wrote down as many as I could.
First we saw the 8 arm spider

1209
01:09:06,260 --> 01:09:08,600
man, which is actually in a
comic.

1210
01:09:08,800 --> 01:09:11,960
There's a version of that in
spider man lore, this ghost

1211
01:09:11,960 --> 01:09:14,000
rider samurai, which looked dope
as fuck.

1212
01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:18,359
I'm totally down for that shit.
There was re re as the punisher.

1213
01:09:18,840 --> 01:09:24,160
That was just redamdiculous Like
holy shit, there was Gamora as a

1214
01:09:24,160 --> 01:09:27,200
bride.
I'm like, are they did they say

1215
01:09:27,200 --> 01:09:30,279
Gamora and kill Bill, but or are
they making Gamora marry

1216
01:09:30,279 --> 01:09:33,720
somebody like the Gamora marry
Peter Peter Quill.

1217
01:09:34,040 --> 01:09:35,800
That's kind of weird.
But she was dressed up as a

1218
01:09:35,800 --> 01:09:37,920
bride.
So I'm like, OK, Then there was

1219
01:09:37,920 --> 01:09:41,680
Vision dressed up as a knight.
I'm actually down for that too.

1220
01:09:41,760 --> 01:09:45,200
Like shit.
After that there was Thanos as

1221
01:09:45,200 --> 01:09:49,000
Weapon X, like with the
adamanium claws and the helmet

1222
01:09:49,000 --> 01:09:51,840
with Logan first got the
adamanium infusion.

1223
01:09:52,240 --> 01:09:54,120
I was like, I don't want to see
that.

1224
01:09:54,400 --> 01:09:58,520
Like we don't need that, no.
But after that there was Kingo

1225
01:09:58,520 --> 01:10:01,480
as Iron Man, which was really
intriguing.

1226
01:10:01,680 --> 01:10:04,640
I was like, I looked, I was
like, is that Kingo?

1227
01:10:04,920 --> 01:10:08,200
But he had an Iron Man suit on
and I'm like, So what if the

1228
01:10:08,200 --> 01:10:10,800
what if the Eternals took that
literally took the place of The

1229
01:10:10,800 --> 01:10:14,840
Avengers, like Kingo is Iron Man
that you could have one of them

1230
01:10:14,840 --> 01:10:18,000
be, have other guys be Thor and
etcetera, etcetera.

1231
01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:21,240
So I'm like, that actually is
kind of intriguing because they

1232
01:10:21,240 --> 01:10:23,920
remember in the movie they said
they didn't, they didn't

1233
01:10:23,920 --> 01:10:25,640
interfere.
They're like, well, we could

1234
01:10:25,640 --> 01:10:27,920
call The Avengers and they're
like, they laughed at it.

1235
01:10:28,360 --> 01:10:31,520
So maybe this time they actually
would like, well, let's just

1236
01:10:31,520 --> 01:10:32,840
take their place and save the
world.

1237
01:10:33,280 --> 01:10:39,120
So what if what if Kingo just
just bought Stark Industries?

1238
01:10:39,840 --> 01:10:43,520
Oh, what if he saved Stark in
the Middle East?

1239
01:10:43,520 --> 01:10:44,560
He.
Already has a relationship with

1240
01:10:44,560 --> 01:10:45,760
Howard Stark.
Yeah.

1241
01:10:47,200 --> 01:10:49,640
Also there was the Wasp with
Miss Marvel powers.

1242
01:10:49,640 --> 01:10:52,320
Like with the with the power.
I was like, huh.

1243
01:10:53,000 --> 01:10:56,240
Then there was Maestro with
Sorcerer's Supreme powers.

1244
01:10:56,840 --> 01:10:59,520
That shit's scary.
I don't know if I want to see

1245
01:10:59,520 --> 01:11:01,240
that.
My Maestro.

1246
01:11:01,240 --> 01:11:03,960
With Maestro.
My show's a smart is he's a

1247
01:11:03,960 --> 01:11:05,800
older.
Version of he's he's a future

1248
01:11:05,800 --> 01:11:07,800
version of the whole Doctor
Bruce died.

1249
01:11:08,600 --> 01:11:10,560
OK, OK.
Yeah, I don't know.

1250
01:11:10,560 --> 01:11:12,400
I want that.
Then there was my one of my

1251
01:11:12,400 --> 01:11:14,240
personal favorites.
Howard Duck is a vampire.

1252
01:11:14,680 --> 01:11:16,000
Yes, I love that one.
Yeah.

1253
01:11:16,440 --> 01:11:18,040
I think I actually saw that as a
comic.

1254
01:11:18,080 --> 01:11:20,560
I'm not sure.
I can't remember I had.

1255
01:11:20,560 --> 01:11:25,440
Heard a rumor that we will see
some of those versions then

1256
01:11:25,920 --> 01:11:29,520
there was a reason that they
showed those versions of those

1257
01:11:29,560 --> 01:11:30,560
characters.
What?

1258
01:11:30,680 --> 01:11:33,680
Making Secret wars.
Maybe, Yeah, yeah.

1259
01:11:34,440 --> 01:11:39,000
Then there's Jubilee as Jubilee
in some she looks like Storm.

1260
01:11:39,000 --> 01:11:42,080
She has like light for eyes,
like maybe it's an elevated

1261
01:11:42,080 --> 01:11:45,440
Jubilee.
Then there's another is Cap as a

1262
01:11:45,440 --> 01:11:47,240
zombie again, like when you see
that.

1263
01:11:47,240 --> 01:11:50,160
Wait, you skipped one the.
Yeah, I did.

1264
01:11:50,160 --> 01:11:52,640
I came.
With the duck, it was somebody,

1265
01:11:52,720 --> 01:11:57,800
some some kind of creature with
a bow and arrow.

1266
01:11:58,440 --> 01:12:00,400
It kind of look the kind of
looks like Beta Ray Bill.

1267
01:12:03,840 --> 01:12:05,760
I wouldn't know.
I don't freeze frame anymore so.

1268
01:12:05,760 --> 01:12:10,480
You know what?
Yeah, but but shout to them for

1269
01:12:11,800 --> 01:12:14,920
for some reason, I think this is
them keeping the door open for

1270
01:12:14,920 --> 01:12:16,720
maybe changing their mind about
doing it.

1271
01:12:17,000 --> 01:12:20,520
I mean, they are they are kind
of apartment to doing that

1272
01:12:20,520 --> 01:12:21,640
sometimes.
Like who's the?

1273
01:12:21,920 --> 01:12:26,240
Pirate the pirate and the the
chick was that was that that's

1274
01:12:26,240 --> 01:12:27,680
what.
I was trying to figure out

1275
01:12:27,680 --> 01:12:31,640
because in look.
Does it look like Medusa?

1276
01:12:32,880 --> 01:12:33,720
But are they?
Are they?

1277
01:12:33,800 --> 01:12:36,760
Dancing.
The ones that are dancing at the

1278
01:12:36,760 --> 01:12:38,840
end.
Yeah, they like pirates.

1279
01:12:39,800 --> 01:12:42,960
And no, not pirates.
One of them looks like he's in a

1280
01:12:42,960 --> 01:12:47,520
tuxedo and the the female almost
looks like Cersei from the

1281
01:12:47,520 --> 01:12:50,080
Eternals.
Yeah, it was weird.

1282
01:12:50,640 --> 01:12:52,080
So maybe it's Cersei?
And what's his name?

1283
01:12:52,640 --> 01:12:56,360
It is not Icarus it.
Could be a Black Knight.

1284
01:12:58,000 --> 01:13:03,480
You know what it could be
because he he is dark haired,

1285
01:13:03,840 --> 01:13:07,640
but it looks like, I don't know,
it looks like a version of

1286
01:13:07,680 --> 01:13:11,120
Howard Stark.
When when they brought up the

1287
01:13:11,120 --> 01:13:14,520
idea of the multiverse way back
when, because we've had this

1288
01:13:14,520 --> 01:13:18,200
conversation and we talked about
this back when they first

1289
01:13:18,200 --> 01:13:19,400
started.
And I was like, this is

1290
01:13:19,400 --> 01:13:23,240
literally their opportunity to
do whatever they want to do.

1291
01:13:24,040 --> 01:13:26,400
You know, they can bring Black
Panther back.

1292
01:13:26,400 --> 01:13:30,040
They want to, they have ways,
they have reasons.

1293
01:13:30,040 --> 01:13:32,160
They, they, they have the
opportunity.

1294
01:13:32,680 --> 01:13:34,720
And I.
Saw they were looking at all.

1295
01:13:34,960 --> 01:13:37,280
Yeah, go ahead.
Well, I was going to say I'm,

1296
01:13:37,280 --> 01:13:40,480
I'm not going to fault them for
leaning into it because they

1297
01:13:40,480 --> 01:13:44,120
have invested so much into it.
I know a lot of people are kind

1298
01:13:44,120 --> 01:13:49,920
of tired of this multiverse
thing, but the, the MCU Marvel,

1299
01:13:49,920 --> 01:13:55,520
Disney, they, they have leaned
into it like they are all in on

1300
01:13:55,520 --> 01:13:58,800
the multiverse thing and they're
going to make it work whether we

1301
01:13:58,800 --> 01:14:02,960
want them to or not.
But I warned everyone way back

1302
01:14:02,960 --> 01:14:07,800
when that this was going to be a
problem that they introduced

1303
01:14:07,800 --> 01:14:11,280
this and it it was going to be
an issue and it's starting to be

1304
01:14:11,280 --> 01:14:13,440
an issue now.
They're going to have to figure

1305
01:14:13,440 --> 01:14:19,720
out a way to rein this in, you
know, and, and I don't want to

1306
01:14:19,720 --> 01:14:24,120
say I hate them for it, but
they, they had, if I could see

1307
01:14:24,120 --> 01:14:27,080
it coming, people smarter than
me who worked there should have

1308
01:14:27,080 --> 01:14:29,880
seen this coming.
That people are going to get

1309
01:14:29,880 --> 01:14:33,680
tired of it, that it was going
to be confusion and it was, it's

1310
01:14:33,680 --> 01:14:35,600
going to be weird.
And people are going to be like,

1311
01:14:35,600 --> 01:14:39,400
what are they doing?
And characters can come back and

1312
01:14:39,400 --> 01:14:42,840
characters can die.
It is, it's, it's a lot.

1313
01:14:43,120 --> 01:14:46,240
And then, and then when you
extend it to all your other

1314
01:14:46,240 --> 01:14:52,000
properties and, and the
ramifications of what if on this

1315
01:14:52,000 --> 01:14:56,560
whole idea of a multiverse, it
is, is it's a lot.

1316
01:14:57,400 --> 01:14:58,560
Yeah, yeah, it's a lot.
It is.

1317
01:14:58,600 --> 01:15:02,960
It's just, it's just, I mean,
yeah, I think we were talking

1318
01:15:02,960 --> 01:15:05,840
about it.
I said that if they do this and

1319
01:15:05,840 --> 01:15:08,040
they do it wrong, it's going to
be a fucking disaster.

1320
01:15:08,400 --> 01:15:10,440
And are we even?
I know we're going to talk about

1321
01:15:10,440 --> 01:15:14,360
this later, but is is this
Captain America movie even in

1322
01:15:14,360 --> 01:15:16,680
the right universe?
We'll talk.

1323
01:15:16,800 --> 01:15:17,840
We'll talk about that later
because.

1324
01:15:17,840 --> 01:15:22,720
There's normal is not America,
so is not what is not what you

1325
01:15:22,720 --> 01:15:25,600
call it.
We'll, we'll talk about it and

1326
01:15:25,640 --> 01:15:30,680
we'll talk about it in, in, in
detail, because there's a lot,

1327
01:15:31,120 --> 01:15:34,280
there's a lot to unpack with
that particular movie.

1328
01:15:34,280 --> 01:15:38,600
So yeah.
But my point is they, they've, I

1329
01:15:38,600 --> 01:15:41,440
think they have bitten off a
whole lot more than they can

1330
01:15:41,480 --> 01:15:42,560
treat.
Yeah.

1331
01:15:42,960 --> 01:15:47,440
And this and, and hopefully they
use Secret Wars as a way to and

1332
01:15:47,440 --> 01:15:51,400
I think hopefully that's what
they're going to do as we just

1333
01:15:51,440 --> 01:15:55,240
reset and get rid of multiverse,
yeah, and kind of start over.

1334
01:15:57,360 --> 01:15:59,560
And they also they also have
mega Deadpool in here.

1335
01:15:59,560 --> 01:16:02,120
I do think that it seems like it
almost looks like Howard Stark

1336
01:16:02,120 --> 01:16:05,120
dancing with Cersei.
OK, that's yeah, that's what it

1337
01:16:05,120 --> 01:16:09,360
looks like.
Then there's like Hera as a

1338
01:16:09,360 --> 01:16:14,880
child looks like, and then it's
like Quill with the five rings

1339
01:16:14,880 --> 01:16:18,480
or something.
And then it then it gets bright

1340
01:16:18,480 --> 01:16:20,800
and you can't really tell.
But it seems like, it does seem

1341
01:16:20,800 --> 01:16:23,640
seem to me like they're kind of
leaving the door open to maybe

1342
01:16:23,720 --> 01:16:27,760
revisiting some of this later.
I'm just glad you, I'm just glad

1343
01:16:27,760 --> 01:16:31,920
you didn't do that when they
were when the Eminence was

1344
01:16:31,920 --> 01:16:36,040
trying to get rid of all of the
verses of Captain Carter and

1345
01:16:36,040 --> 01:16:38,400
Cohorty, right.
Glad you didn't sit there and

1346
01:16:38,400 --> 01:16:41,640
try to freeze frame those guys.
You got a lot of.

1347
01:16:41,800 --> 01:16:45,840
Them ain't nobody got time for
that like that was a lot I mean

1348
01:16:45,840 --> 01:16:49,080
I I saw I saw like primitive
versions I saw like medieval

1349
01:16:49,080 --> 01:16:51,520
versions or something it.
Was it was this armor,

1350
01:16:51,520 --> 01:16:54,840
incredible looking version of
Captain Carter that just looked

1351
01:16:54,840 --> 01:16:57,040
like she's probably going to
blow shit up.

1352
01:16:57,280 --> 01:17:00,440
She's she was huge and had all
this armor on.

1353
01:17:01,280 --> 01:17:02,080
Yeah.
Yeah, it.

1354
01:17:02,080 --> 01:17:03,240
Was crazy.
She looked scary.

1355
01:17:03,880 --> 01:17:08,520
Yeah, shout to Birdie having
among her powers of light up

1356
01:17:08,520 --> 01:17:11,440
wings and the jewel on her head
shooting laser beams.

1357
01:17:11,440 --> 01:17:15,600
She also has duck wrist, which
is a very low key and rare power

1358
01:17:15,600 --> 01:17:17,880
that she uses to play foosball
and beat cohorty.

1359
01:17:21,200 --> 01:17:24,960
But yeah, I thought this was
awesome, not just because of my

1360
01:17:24,960 --> 01:17:28,840
favorite niece, Birdie the Duck,
but I mean, I actually really

1361
01:17:28,840 --> 01:17:33,200
enjoyed all of this.
And if they decide to do it, I

1362
01:17:33,200 --> 01:17:35,440
hope they do a more cohesive job
with it.

1363
01:17:35,440 --> 01:17:37,640
And maybe they're just giving it
a rest for a minute.

1364
01:17:37,720 --> 01:17:40,640
This is fine.
Which is absolutely fine where

1365
01:17:40,640 --> 01:17:45,000
they can do something and be and
not have fatigue, where they

1366
01:17:45,000 --> 01:17:49,680
have to keep forcing episodes
out and maybe they'll maybe

1367
01:17:49,680 --> 01:17:51,960
they'll visit, maybe they won't.
But I enjoyed the ride for what

1368
01:17:51,960 --> 01:17:52,480
it was.
