Enjoy Your Last Few Months: James Gunn Fired from Guardians 3

okay I'm just going to start off this episode by apologizing it's about time my energy is not going to be here this episode I'm going to struggle and when you say your energy you mean like your physical energy you don't mean like some kind of New Wave kind of like your chakra isn't here it's like a totem it's the camora he calls it his energy yeah that's that's what takes my energy CHR no I've heard about oh that's what he calls his energy my energy welcome to multiple nerdgasm with your hosts Matt Luke and Dan multiple nerdgasm your guide to All Things nerd I've had 4 hours sleep in the last

two days and it's finally caught up with me l so I napped twice yesterday [ __ ] in addition to my sleep I napped twice I cuz I I didn't get a lot of sleep on Friday I was at the work I work Clan bake uh which I do annually yeah we talked about sorry would you do what you it's it's an annual thing we do oh annually okay sorry I misheard yeah but I didn't get a whole lot of sleep and then I was really tired yesterday and then Jenna was like why didn't you nap I'm like I I can't nap like yeah I don't get napping you guys just too cool for it you you're awake or you sleep you if I yeah if I go to sleep I'm going to wake up hours later I'm going to feel like [ __ ] you just sleep

for one cycle that's that's the trick to napping you don't just sleep indefinitely you just sleep I guess I don't know what a cycle is that's the problem no yeah I either sleep for as long as possible or if I'm tired and I could probably nap I would just go and play again tonight on multiple sleep gasm that's what I did this is [ __ ] fascinating so you're tired are you Luke uh I'm very very tired you know who else is tired that would be our good friend Mr stanlee yeah well he through the and was pushed with a th lock walked a man with a stolen bucket of his blood standly I've been telling him he should have yeah this is because of what you have said on this podcast I thought Luke's been on the phone Stan [ __ ]

you need to shut it down go into the corner old mate let someone put a blanket over you Dan's doing any more public appearances no [ __ ] good which I actually really wish he had have stopped a couple of years ago he has you wish that to see him one last time well no I it was awesome seeing him cuz I I saw him as well but then it was also sad even back then see I didn't see him that time I saw him the time before and even then it was edging towards sad you should have seen him at [ __ ] Rhode Island ComiCon last year Jesus and then those like because I thought oh man he's not looking good and then those photos of him at the the cons this this year Jesus like leave the man alone he's done enough for us all right yeah you had your chance if you didn't get to meet

him yeah he had plenty of time he was putting himself out there there are bigger celebrities than Stan Lee who [ __ ] retired way earlier like it sort of does suck for him a little bit because he's probably more famous now in this last sort of yeah decade of his life that he's been his entire I wish I was this when I was 20 yeah his life's work is now finally [ __ ] huge and Y well good on him I'm I'm happy that he's finally retired I yeah wish it had been a couple years ago so we could have enjoyed it a little bit more but yeah I can't help but thinking it a nice little retirement before all the blood stealing and stuff at that started God might have done but you live when he could have had

his blood stolen in in peace and quiet without all this [ __ ] publicity I'm just looking at this article and I'm just sort of looking at how sad it was that it's stly being told how to spell his name oh no what signing [Laughter] God God hey look I'm glad that I me if nothing else it's a very easy name to spell yeah it's even by that age is just muscle be it's almost as few letters you can have in a name it's not his real name let's be honest though so maybe you know maybe he's he was like one day I'm going to be too old to spell so we need to shorten this thing up mhm look I got to tell him my story about my painting myself green as a kid and he pretended he could hear you well he he must have

heard me because he repeated that I painted myself green so from you're not taking it away from me Luke [ __ ] you he heard he heard every word I said yeah you know what I I have a feeling hear the words when I was a kid that my assessment of the situation you painted yourself green God freaks at these conventions I'm too old for this good on you Stanley go and go and [ __ ] have a lie enjoy enjoy your [Laughter] last last few months I'm still calling I still have a

feeling too often to be calling [ __ ] like this all right I don't want to be right but yeah just just yeah geek geek week coming soon watch this space yeah do we have a geek of the week this week I don't think we do look a couple of people have died uh since since we last did geek of the week um can I can I throw out two candidates and Luke you can you can pick one the other or neither okay yeah okay um so number one that uh that guy with the skull tattooed on his face he's dead oh yeah the zombie boy yeah that's right uh Rick Gest um he died uh of suicide not surprising that's right well oh that's yeah that they no they call it uh they don't call it suicide now they call

it oh no they do yeah they say died by Suicide not committed suicide I learned that recently oh died yeah you're not supposed to say committed suicide you're supposed to say died by suicide because committed is is because it was illegal a long time ago right and and that's where that phrase comes from and then so the implication is that still is illegal no I don't know I mean it's not like they're going to arrest you they can if you survive if you're doing that you are quite committed to it aren't you yeah yeah I guess that's how I looked at it uh but no apparently they don't call it that anyway let's say he has committed to Suicide yes maybe it's for the family because they don't want the family being like like you know it's like oh he he

died of a crime and they're like no he just he just had enough I don't know maybe something like that yeah no I know mean it's more that uh committing suicide puts all the onus on you whereas died by Suicide kind of implies that there were external forces I.E depression or I think it's it's just a different framing of it yeah so Luke how does that sit with you yeah he he doesn't make the cut he doesn't make the cut because he's not a geek not famous enough he was in a lady gagar music video oh well yeah yeah yeah just being in the lady gagar video does not get you the geek of the week and also just get you wondering listeners I want that on a t-shirt we had a lot of people ready to ring in being in a Lady Gag video does not make you geek of the week no no you got to

die as well yeah he had a tattoo of a skull wow on his skull yeah on his [ __ ] face actually on his skull he had no I suppose the skull is the front too isn't it yeah yeah it's the whole thing isn't it yeah I guess so the whole head yeah but on on the top of the skull he had a brain tattooed and then right the skull was only at the front anatomically accurate I hope yeah I believe so well sorry decision stands not geek okay because of the no suicides thing or just because of everything well is that a rule well yeah I there's nurur side thing and the fact that well he got a tattoo just having a tattoo does not get you geek it a week I thought you were about to say nobody with tattoos can be geek of the week jeez

no we're [ __ ] all right well I've got another cand we one day got another candidate Luke do you want to do you want to hear this one okay Chio miao has passed away now let me am I meant to know let me give you a couple of facts about Chio she does not have any tattoos okay she did not commit suicide um and if she's famous for anything it was dying as the world's oldest person oh H how old was she was7 [ __ ] man okay would she have understood how to turn a computer on you've got a few few [ __ ] decades to go mate yeah that's right um no it doesn't mention in this

obituary anything about her um her Tex you drop out or is Luke thinking oh no thinking a little bit I'm just sort of like just being old I don't think is criteria for making it okay what if she was old and in a Lady Gaga music video oh now it's so sad that she's dead because she'll never be in a Lady Gaga music video Don't worry neither will we never say never um I'm not going to call her geek and a away cuz I don't think she was a geek you don't know that how do you know well I'm just trying to also collected Transformers yeah and she cosplayed as that old woman from how's Moving Castle I thought you going to go the old woman from

Titanic no I went super geeky man wow was born in 1903 on the 2nd of January far out live through both world Wars my grandfather was born before that I don't think he was mate not if he's still alive oh no he's dead long time right no I'm sorry I can't give I can't give it to her just no you can't cuz she's dead yeah try as you might mate just just being old when you die isn't a criter sorry okay Noir no old people no people with tattoos this week sadly there ain't no geek of the week no does that mean I gotta play the jingle backwards no dick of the week either I'd like to nominate my dick his dick of the

[Laughter] week I'm pretty sure I I thought this had a way for me to reverse the jingle years that all that'll do I thought this had a button for that apparently it does not have a button for that play in Reverse I mean how often would you need to use that button really yeah I love this song I wonder what it sounds like backwards kill your family this Coldplay album is weird when back masking was like yeah man thing James gun and Guardians of the Galaxy volume 3 news this week Dave Batista clearly does not give a [ __ ] and he is he's sticking it to Disney and he's yeah he's really going all out he said if he if they don't use his script if they don't use James gun script at

least uh he's going to ask them to to release him from his contract and or fire him uh now did his did he disappear in Infinity War he did he did okay so there's an easy out for them I think they've already shot Infinity whatever the sequel is right uh end game they've already shot it so they're going to have to edit him out of no no no cuz he's not saying he won't be in further Avengers movies he's just saying he's not going to just saying yeah well he also said even if they use the script he's even if he's just going to be even if they do use the script he's just going to show up he said he doesn't want to do it so that that's their options scpt don't use the script I'm out like

[ __ ] all right here's the thing all right Dave chances are they're not going to use the script because they didn't fire him they they're not going to fire him as director but still have written by James gun up there yeah well well that's the thing he hasn't actually been fired he's still employed by Disney we see is he though yeah so because from what I understand this is the other news this week was that they the reason that because everyone's like why haven't they announced anything else it's like cuz they've got to [ __ ] negotiate now because he his contract states that he's got to be paid yeah but there's probably something in the contract that says well they're saying that because what he did predates the contract it's irrelevant he didn't do

anything during the terms of the contract and so all there in public it's not something that he hid right y yep yeah it was literally on Twitter so yeah from what yeah from what I've sort of heard is he's going to if it does go through that they do like wants to negotiate his you're not working here anymore it's going to be more than what he would earn making the but he's not an employee of Disney right he's just a he's just been contract to do a film or three films and I assume the script contract is still there I assume the script is a work for H so Disney owns the script but you're right I think it would be hypocritical or not I just can't see how you can justify not letting him direct it and then still using his script like the [ __ ] problem then like yes exactly

right what what's what you heard the other rumors yeah that um while this has all happened so quickly because they didn't want it to affect the Disney Fox merger yes and that so that this is why they acted quickly went look he's not going to be the director of this anymore but there's the thing that he might be back in the future to continue making Marvel movies yeah hopefully like yeah it might just be a look what yeah get rid of him now while this when this blows over and the internet forgets bring him back in well the other thing is so you go oh also uh evidently water Brothers is already interested in him they're already like come over here to DC I know it's funny a bunch of Studios came out and we're like well we

don't think they should have fought him and we'd be more than happy to take him on like all right yeah yeah honestly I the whole merger at the moment true but yeah I really think if it wasn't for the merger happening at this time they might have it might not have Disney do you know what I heard the I mean this is off all of this is rumors they haven't announced like and also over the of this week they they said oh the rumor is they're not going to use this script oh the rumor is they are going to use this scpt so it's been all [ __ ] all over the place so who knows but I did see that um the the the actual reason that they jumped in so quickly is because one of the tweets uh was that one where it was um oh here's a video of a bunch of young

girls touching themselves or something and it was a link to you know a choir singing the thatal song I touch myself but they had blanked out the URL and were saying that it was child porn and apparently like that's the reason that they were so [ __ ] quick about it right then how do people know what it was because when you actually go back and look at because the I guess the tweets were still available for a while right and uh yeah and so someone found the original and they were like oh it's just he was just [ __ ] making a joke oh I see right right right when when you say it was blacked out it was blacked out for us now not for anyone who read this in the screenshots of all the tweets it was blanked out and apparently that one was the that was the nail in

the coffin was like holy [ __ ] because it was a tweet from some guy he retweeted some guy who was convicted of T allegedly I guess [ __ ] who knows yeah yeah so I don't know oh man I really feel like they just acted too quickly and if they had just waited even like a day or two this would have been different yeah man James gun must be waking up every morning and just having that feeling of like oh that wasn't a dream yeah oh guess I'll just have to console myself with my millions of dollars I made from the other two movies yeah and the fact I'm going to make even more yeah yeah he'll probably he'll come out okay just not I'll go for a drive in the in the car from from uh Guardian too that they let him keep you know that car that they have at the

start oh what yeah that [ __ ] yeah they gave it to him oh what a nightmare but he's lucky because the people don't like the people they don't see him as a pedophile it's not like Louis CK where that's it for him you know yeah this is kind of like best case scenario for him after this happened is that dir bastard all right on your way a that was some pretty off jokes and then whatever that was his [ __ ] stick so that was his sck oh no so whatever that's what he wanted to be known for originally exactly right yeah and then then he grew up and went hold on no I don't grew up he was already 40 now he's 50 and he's like I've

changed look I don't usually listen to uh internet rumors and there's there's one uh that's been going around for a little while uh that I've been ignoring um but something gave it a little bit of credence today the internet seems pretty [ __ ] sure that Idris Elbert is going to be James Bond right really yeah I mean this article after article about it and the whole James Bond sub tweet subreddit at the moment is just [ __ ] elar um and it's just you know ignored it it's just speculation except that today Idris Elber tweeted the name is eldra Idris Elber but he might be just seeing all the fuss and being like this will be fun wink yeah people been saying this for a while now and he's not made any comments and then today he made this so I'm not saying I'm

getting sucked into it I'm just saying it could be a thing might be nothing well look Adis elbert's [ __ ] awesome so all right yeah he's great yeah like that'd be cool I mean he's gonna he's gonna have to delete social media though because he's gonna get Fu alive well speaking of if we want to talk is not black yeah right yeah [ __ ] it's going to be a nightmare I I quite like the route when people were trying to get jelene Anderson become James Bond yeah she would also have to delet she would have to have deleted a [ __ ] unplugged her phone this week they announced Ruby Rose is going to be Batwoman right in uh in a TV series and uh and they made a big fuss about well a big fuss that sounds

condescending I thought it was a little odd they describe Batwoman as a an out lesbian crime fighter and I I was just that that was the description from the from the studio I'm like like is that her defining feature like I get why they're doing it but it just seemed odd to me and then they cast Ruby Rose as Batwoman and I thought oh yeah cool cuz well I thought she was she is right right yes well my understand I looked into she's deleted a Twitter account now right and I was like oh man people having a go at her because she's gay no apparently the problem the problem I'm saying it like it's real it's not a [ __ ] problem the the people's issue with her is that the LGBT community or a bunch of [ __ ] psychos in the LGBT community yeah hate Ruby

Rose because at various times she has said when she was young she wanted to be a boy so she was saving up for for transition surgery and and and hormones and that kind of stuff but then she grew out of it and then when she then she realized she was a lesbian and then she's kind of gender fluid and she wakes up in the morning and she just kind of feels like oh maybe I like boys maybe I like girls maybe I'm a boy maybe I'm a girl she says all this kind of wishy-washy stuff and like Fe herself and she and yes and they're like that's not how it works [ __ ] you [ __ ] and so now they're now they're all mad at her what so the flx she's coping is from the gay community that's what I read yes and it blew my mind they're saying that not

surpris B Woman as a lesbian should be played by a real lesbian not Ruby Rose who's a big fakey pantsexual yeah who's just real who's just a [ __ ] normal human yeah who does what she feels like oh my God yeah exact you really have to just act what you are now don't you I know it's so weird no more playing characters in fact I take it back Idris elow would be a terrible James Bond you know why cuz he isn't James Bond he's not he has has not worked for MI6 in his life that's right so he can't play it because he's marginalizing people that uh do work for MI6 and want to get into acting when to get into acting yeah funny yeah so I was baffled by this I don't watch the DC TV shows cuz they're all a little bit TV for me um but I wouldn't yeah they're definitely

made for I definitely wouldn't not watch this because it's got Ruby Rose in it like she's fine right yeah she's in some stuff yeah I mean I didn't go out of my way to watch [ __ ] Ruby Rose stuff but uh a party I was at once did you say hi no oh she was on one of her I like girls today days so uh you're still allowed to say hi yeah no you'd smell Ruby's Rose wouldn't you I've met Ruby Rose actually yeah you have yeah oh did you say hi back in 2000ish uh remember Carnival i' [ __ ] yes I remember Carnival Box Studios at at the Metro actually they did a for I I'm for MTV even they did a show that they shot for MTV and and just threw happen you know

the singer from Carnival I forget his name he's in birds of Tokyo as well he um I didn't know that that band is managed by a friend of mine and so through happen stance we got got to go along and uh and she was the you know the the VJ for the there you go that sounds that sounds gross she was the does sound yeah the doesn't it it does but yeah she was there she was very nice but that was like she she wasn't famous then really she just started out so but yeah she was nice no not on and I was like [ __ ] you fakey yeah make up your [ __ ] mind you have to make your decision when you're very young and just stick with it I was like hey baby and she was like no I'm a

lesbian I'm like [ __ ] off you are yeah you will never be batom I do like it that they're calling her bat woman instead of bat girl it's always been bat girl no it's different character oh this is not bat girl they still the no there still the bat girl movie still in the oh okay mhm yeah the Batwoman is a is a is a character as well learn something new every day we're not very good on the DC Universe are we no well look I'm sure there are Marvel characters I'm not familiar with oh there's hundreds thousands there absolutely are yeah I actually have a DC encyclopedia in this room somewhere that I got at some point hey speaking of DC um and we can kind of transition into

uh talking about the uh The Witcher as well um because I want to talk about Henry caval right oh yeah um because I saw a little film yesterday called uh Mission Impossible Fallout oh which uh yeah I mean I want to see that it works you know I mean the mission impossible formula is is an odd one uh but they make it work you know they make it work every time Henry caval is awful in it right and his mustache is awful like it's nonsensical why this guy has a must like all of this F over mustache gate Oh Henry the mustache is ruining Superman no no no it's not the mustache he's terrible he's like a cardboard cut out mustache or not okay I think we need to just forget about Henry caval just move on

everybody yeah I don't I I'm not a fan I got to say I mean he's I've seen the trailers and he's looks like he's good at trying to punch [ __ ] Tom Cruz he's a good puncher yeah he's a good puncher yeah and then I mean his Superman was awful but that wasn't necessarily his fault but it definitely was hisult didn't help either right well and this Witcher thing like this article I I put it up on the Facebook I said it's not like Henry caval is not kind of uh you know campaigning to be Geral he was in an interview and then he said he liked video games and they said oh did you play The Witcher and he was like yeah and they oh would you play geralt and he was like yeah like

something it's not like he's being approached or anything he's just like oh yeah that'd be all right [ __ ] if you ask me ask me if I want to play geralt Hey Matt do you want to play play Geral yeah ask me ask me Luke would you like to play geralt not really oh really lukee refuses to play geralt yeah not even if I was offered says Luke alerson so yeah but he would too young to play he doesn't even he could use his real accent to play geralt yeah but he's he's he's a not that great an actor and B he doesn't he's doesn't look at all like geralt geralt's like rough and learned anything recently is that they will have

to cast a real Witcher right no but he not even remotely like like geralt is is kind of he's gray and he's like worn and and like [ __ ] they've already photoshopped him Matt Matt Cav's like a pretty boy oh you think he's pretty Geral is not a pretty boy yeah he's right ask me if I would have sex with Henry caval go on man would you have sex with Henry caval yeah ask me ask me Luke would you have sex with Henry caval no we would make love Luke alerson makes love to Henry caval Luke Alderson makes love while Henry caval [ __ ] [Laughter] him I hope I mean I hope this doesn't happen probably won't who would you like to see

play an unknown personally well you should be saying yourself at this a role you were born to play man yeah if ever there was a time to be calling your agent it's now Maxine I don't know if Maxine is probably not even alive these days whoa Jesus geek of the week yeah luk L's gotten to it by now what was your last name I'm see if she's still casting what's her name Maxine I don't I don't remember Max m m will remember yeah oh yeah she probably will yeah oh definitely she was a character Maxine she was like a stereotypical [ __ ] Hollywood agent except in penth Jewish yes darling she a darling all the time yeah sounds like an agent MH not a joke she literally talked like that like

a stereotype she was she was great well I'll give her a call man Wier maybe I will maybe the time I'm an America now I can get a real Hollywood agent oh you can yeah you may as well go straight for New York well straight for William Morris to the big or I could just I mean look if I wanted to get started I could just I they're filming uh uh Shakespeare's [ __ ] storm which is troma's adaptation of the Tempest uh right fil I've been following that on Instagram pretty sure Instagram are you following that on I got to get on this Lloyd Lloyd my boy Lloyd Lloyd kman yeah me [ __ ] calman calman oh yeah Koffman calman he he says Koffman I pronounce his name I think he says Kaufman but uh follow there's a chicken with a a rubber

couple of weeks ago we were talking about maybe throwing around the idea of doing a podcast secondary to this that we would do commentary on Films well uh the people at Netflix were listening and they've now got a new feature where you can watch a film with friends and it uh it cues it up and uh plays the film at the same time for everybody wow so you know they're us out here they meet yeah we should do that yeah less and less excuses not to well we should try and pick a time cuz otherwise if we just kind of go oh we'll figure it out we won't I think the only time we could do would be Sunday evening here th morning you so now yeah what about some no we'd have to do Friday or Saturday night for yeah mid middle of

the day for me lunchtime for me that would work I could do that yeah I mean that would work for me for sure okay all right done podcast coming soon very good oh man we don't even have to do good movies no in fact it's probably better we terrible movies we can do like 50 Shades of something [ __ ] dropped out again tro and really doubt tro and jul Netflix but sure Toxic Avenger might be I don't think so listeners listeners get in touch podcast at multip nerd gm.com M nerdgasm on Twitter multiple nerdgasm on Facebook uh go to multipl nerdgasm docomo on iTunes that'd be fantastic you know I check this week and you know uh

the famous uh one star review that we had is gone what Chiller 77 yeah he's gone so we're we're like all five stars now so if you want to continue that Trend listeners that would be [ __ ] awesome that Chiller 7 changed his mind it's like he heard a couple more episodes and was like oh this is really growing on me five STS oh probably not no I think that's the only explanation that there could be yeah cuz when he first listened it was a long time ago and we've grown since then that's true we've matured yeah we don't just say penis and then giggle for an hour I know I still gigle at that yeah hey look penis yeah

something like I just I mean I'm not even very far in right but it's like oh you've got to build a hyperdrive okay sure I'm going to I'm going to play up until I build the hyper Drive okay you need this thing okay sure I'll mine for that and then I'll go oh no now you need to put that together need 200 of it I've got 100 of it I guess I'll just keep going yeah like actually you need something you have to go and trade on a space station okay well I'll pop to the space station then yeah and I was like he you can get this little Quest just to go and talk to like 20 aliens and well we already got 10 so yeah I'll just fly around and see some more aliens and learn some more words [ __ ] evil man it's beautiful though isn't it it's just beautiful mhm s my prettier than when it

was when it first came out I swear oh well it must be because I'm like what the [ __ ] was everyone's problem with this like my problem with it is that I'm [ __ ] addicted to it only problem was it it wasn't out on Xbox yeah maybe that was fortuitous cuz I guess people didn't like it at first yeah but [ __ ] I think it's because it was missing a lot of what the game has now I'm sure the shine's going to wear off eventually like in the first version there was there was no Base building right yeah but how how much quite boring I built a base cuz it told me to and then I flew away from it and I don't know where it is anymore it tells you yeah I think like my wife in Skyrim no idea where she is a I tell you where she is she's at my

place I think the update yesterday added persistent locations you know when you discover that there's like a a location on a planet I feel like a couple of days ago if you didn't go straight there you would kind of forget that it was there like it wouldn't show it anymore but now they seem to persist so that's a cool feature cuz that was annoying I was like oh [ __ ] like I lost it and then now I have a lot of markers that I'm sure I didn't have before Oh okay that's good cuz I haven't played today and I think I lost that big freighter that was crashed so hopefully I'll be able to find it again oh yeah I found another ship just found it it's mine now right I have bigger ship it's yours I need to I need to go out with my um I need to get my Freer moving yeah I sent it figed out on

an expedition that was cool they brought me back a bunch of treasure it's just evil but I love it yeah it's so good it's just so Moorish like they've it's like perfectly on that Tipping Point where it's like well I'll just do this and then I'll stop oh well I guess I could just do this and then I'll stop yeah and oh well I'll just do that other thing like [ __ ] man but it's also like there's not a whole lot to do like you know nothing seems to be time sensitive or anything it's kind of it meanders it's it's atmospheric like it's almost like that perfect balance between doing something and not really doing anything yeah yeah do you know I was playing yesterday and I put a podcast on and I'm like this is perfect yeah cuz I

don't need it doesn't require my full attention I think it's the new Minecraft as far as I'm concerned cuz Minecraft did this to me as well at first where I was just pottering around it oh yeah similar I guess to uh to Conan but cuz it's in space it it Taps into something SP it's completely different yeah it just Taps into the this [ __ ] thing where's something existential about it just because it's in space I have my own spaceship and I [ __ ] fly around space and there are aliens well I just love how like it's not like a big drama to go oh I need to go to that space station I need to go to that planet it's just I'm going to jump in my ship and I just take off and fly there there's no having to deal with load screens or just have to worry about

fuel they're only loading is when you warp to another system and then it's masked anyway because it's like no you're warping you gotta wait yeah you're tring yeah just hang on a minute great game I'm really happy for him because I know that it got [ __ ] on a lot when it came out but you know man when they first announced they like I was being to check it out I think we discussed it on this podcast before a long time ago oh yeah well they still been working on this game making it and they're not charging for DLC or anything it's just you purchased a game you've got it and they're still working on it yeah they're just going to keep updating it that's awesome until they go we need to sell more copies of something let's make a new game

right well I guess we got to I mean it just came out on the Xbox and this is the big update and I'm I'm certain because of all the good hype around this update they' would have gotten a lot of sales I think what what happened when okay came out the first time originally was people actually got it played it for a bit and they went no we want refunds so but I think a lot of those people may have gone back down and repurchased Y hopefully cuz it's the game that they wanted yeah yeah it's the game that they were sort of promised at the start yep it's the game that they wanted but not the game that they deserved but now it is now they deserve it oh yeah they didn't deserve it I think the next game based on this [ __ ] gameplay video the next game that's going to suck me in or

suck me off is Red Dead Redemption 2 [ __ ] yes cuz have you seen did you watch this [ __ ] Gameplay trailer yes a [ __ ] amazing cuz that first game was so good do you remember my my issues with that game remember I had a hard time getting into the first one because um it was you know we you couldn't sleep with prostitutes yeah I just don't like it no when um Dan you and I moved into a apartment in uh in Sydney and we didn't have any internet and so when I got the game I got it from um get gaming they used to sponsor the show and they sent they sent us some games and um I got it but I couldn't update so it was just the literally the release version of it and the the controls were glitchy and I [ __ ] got the shits with it and I was

and I actually wrote a scathing review on the multiple nerdgasm website about how [ __ ] annoying it was and then um and as soon as their internet came on it updated and it was just like a different game and put a scaving review of one of the greatest games of 2010 oh yeah and then I then I removed that update that that review and uh and then I didn't write another one because I not a lot of people were reading our reviews back then that's true well they got the shits with me get gaming because they because you're supposed to send the games back after like a month and I just didn't I'm like no understand why M yeah eventually I did eventually I did but uh yeah look I will be happy if the only thing they

changed about it from the last game was that you didn't have to break in horses you know I spent so [ __ ] long doing that um from what I saw in the trailer I think that's back it looks very similar to the other the old one but just beautiful uh one was pretty as well well that's all we need yeah and uh it's a prequel right you're in um well it's still not very clear it looks no I don't think it is a prequel because they do talk about it being about the West is over yeah the transition into which is what Red Dead Redemption was but then also wasn't it this meant to be like um maron's gang

that's what I thought so I thought he one of the gang members but maybe maybe not I guess we'll find out you know what it doesn't matter they could just be like no no no don't don't worry about it it's it's just the same universe but it's an alternate take on it that' be fine as you're a guy called Ted go play him yep yeah Ron mden completely fine with that oh we don't have long to wait this is October I know I know I'm always glad that they waited to show this now cuz you know when they show stuff too far in advance and it's just like I don't want to wait for it also I'm surprised um Fallout 76 is [ __ ] coming out soon too I'm less interested in that but it is coming out soon yeah that one I'm why I'm less interested in that though because I

[ __ ] love because it's a multiplayer game I know but yeah we'll see that that's that's the reason like you're not it's not going to be this great big story that you get playing experience on your own it's going to be uh also it hasn't been that long since Fallout 4 yeah that's right I haven't I haven't played Fallout fall through a second time you know but by the time new Fallout comes out usually exhausted plays of it but with this one like a big part of Fallout 76 is going to be part of Fallout 4 which I didn't play at all was the base building part where you build your own Vault and all that build contractions that's going to be a big part of 76 and I'm not looking forward to it I know there was a game some gameplay footage from E3 of it where

they showed you know you have your base with your your friends and then this big monster attacks and I was like oh that that's not I don't that's not what Fallout is for me yeah we this is a game we wanted probably 15 years ago cuz Fallout for me is a solitary experience like that's the point of it is that you're the even like to have companions yeah so if I'm I'm Wanderer sometimes I do division in Fallout well I've got I'll play the division cuz it's not you know division 2 looks good too no honestly I think if if we if this was 15 years ago when we had time yeah we would be absolutely loving the idea of this game well it's like everyone used to say oh we want multiplayer Elder Scrolls like you know

multiplayer Oblivion or Mor wind and Skyrim and then now we got it and we kind of like ah yeah multiplayer kind of ruins never even play in a way well no I never wanted multiplayer Elder Scrolls I wanted Co-op Older scrolls that's a good point which I think there's a difference yeah yeah if it's a persistent world that you can affect like you would in the single player campaign but you can play it with your friends that's different mind you what no man sky does is interesting where you're playing solo but somebody can occasionally wander through I saw a guy yesterday oh did you you did yeah wow I got just this little message coming up on the screen saying basically there's a dude over there and this dude was like wandering past was like oh we just kind of stood there for

a sec and went on with our with our day I haven't seen anybody yet I start giving all my Planet offensive names just in case I bump into somebody let's not go there again good mate welcome to fopa oh that's the line you used on me that's what I said you live together for long yeah we got the apartment and then I moved my stuff in and then Dan shut up and I was like good Dan welcome to fuia [Laughter] fotopia man I'm just uh I'm just watching and that's the spare room do you remember that real estate agent was trying to work out if we were a gay couple or not that funny the guy had yeah that was funny and we were we were just weren't

going to let him have his explanation no that's right like quotes straight explanation yeah let have a gay explanation we were just pretending we didn't know what he was getting that what are you guys still playing Diablo 3 no I'm not actually think I finished it once I feel you did finish ited it I I played it on my 360 which I no longer have and it was an old account oh yeah so I don't I don't have that stuff anymore and I never missed it enough to go back and buy it again I own it twice course you do look it's a shame because it wasn't a bad game and I [ __ ] love Diablo I like I played that all the way through so many times then they'll come out with an add- on okay I'm playing it

through again but when Diablo I came out there wasn't anything else like there weren't as many games back then so I feel like now it's like it's got to be exceptional it can't CU that Diablo I was just Diablo I but Diablo 2 yeah yeah and and you know and then they have they have the campaigns and whatever they call it now the where they if you have it on PC I think I don't know if it's on the Xbox where they have the seasonal [ __ ] like can play all this new stuff on there and I I just don't I'm not really that interested but I don't know how people do that and just go and play the same game over and over and over forever now I just I'm always jumping between games yeah there's too many games yeah but they're making I still do

the I still do the thing where I pick one and then play it till I hate it I still do that I don't have time to play more than one game yeah suppose we happy Feud just came out so I grabbed that the other day haven't played it yet oh yeah I play that is it is it any good I've read some some pretty lukewarm reviews it starts off pretty good and that's what we should have called we should have called Luke's review segment luk reviews yeah it's pretty good it starts out pretty good and I'm quite liking the story but then I just feel there's a lot of just walking backwards and forwards yeah I love the look of it though oh it is a beautiful game especially when you take your joy and you just watch the world just pop into really vibrant color it's it's

great and then when you sort of come down off your joy and you just see the the color is still there but it's a little bit duller and there's flies around and great art style I'll definitely check it out this week and I ke to see definitely Rec I recommend giving it a try but it's seems like it's going to be a very long game oh really cool I guess well it was [ __ ] I was surprised by the price of it considering I thought it was a little Indie title and now it's not so yeah it's like a full price game I I've seriously i' probably be at least 10 hours in and to completely played a game you need to play through three times okay there's well it's not really three times it's there's three different characters right and each have their own

like complete story and I haven't after 10 hours I'm still not even I don't think I'm close to finishing the first story huh all right definitely got it's it's I think it's worth the money okay if you're looking at if you look at time is money sure but you just said there's a lot of walking back in forth so there there is and I'm just trying to work out a ways to try and get around that a little bit by one Mission no man's sky is a [ __ ] bargain there was a mission there was a mission I came across where it was um I had to e drop on a couple at night so I went i e drop on them they did their thing and then the next part of the mission was come back tomorrow night so I had to race back to my base which took me probably

10 minutes to get back to cuz I and then I had to sleep for 24 hours and then go 10 minutes back to get to there and EOP again and I had to do that four times well you could have done stuff in between yeah I know I could have but I just really want to see where the story was going and I also found out there was a base that was closer all right so maybe we'll Reserve judgment on on we can't put all that on the game can we yeah no no some with that yeah some with that soie but I'm just really yeah no no it's it's it is fun I'm enjoying it all right well the um the the the Diablo thing was just that they're making they've announced there are multiple Diablo projects in the works so they're making presumably multiple multiple games

uh so okay I guess hopefully so that' be the Diablo 4 probably yeah and then they'd have to be a spin-off that isn't it's going to be it have to be something in the Diablo Universe I'm guess yeah your deard came and you uh about you just valuing [ __ ] or you I think it's set like in the end of the city and you like trying to get your groove back and you like move in with some flat mates and trying to get people p attention to you oh stay a while and listen now get no I've got oh God have you seen my Cube you've got a rare find in that Cube we should have filmed that skit so hopefully they're not just the same game probably maybe a mobile game could be [ __ ] I just remember that Elder

Scrolls game coming out on the Elder Scrolls blades I think it's called look I mean it's an interesting context where the hell's my gwent game what do you mean it's out gent I no it's it's in preview I want the full game out already oh it's on the Xbox just play it you no achievements don't you already have it yeah I've got it but I'm not playing a game I don't get achievements for fair enough waste of time playing for fun I will play a [ __ ] game for I play a [ __ ] game for hours and hours and hours to get an achievements I will not play a good game if I'm not getting achievements yeah parties really have changed in the last couple of years I know right it is pretty good though did you

play have you played Gwen in Witcher yet Dan no you still playing The Witcher oh look I am and I'm not um I'm a girl now I'm playing this girl got to do some stuff and I'm I'm a girl oh Siri got a little girl to look after and I'm just like what am I doing is what I for that doesn't last long that doesn't last long oh well you're yeah you you'll fly through that man it [ __ ] slices people open not this [ __ ] baby sitting [ __ ] hey series cool man no look it's it's all good I I I don't have enough time at the moment to sit and absorb a story uh which is why yeah no man's sky is great for me because I can dip in and out at any time whereas um which I've really got to be prepared to absorb [ __ ] imagine if no man's sky was on mobile imagine it on the switch no man sky on the

[ __ ] switch make it happen oh yeah if progress synced across platforms [ __ ] man yeah do it hello games that be that' be the end of you yep sometimes the only thing that gets me through the day at work is thinking about like what I'll play at night you know but if if there your girlfriend or you well you should be working to enjoy yourself yes but if I if I knew that I could just like constantly excuse myself to the bathroom and just continue playing some people do that but they don't have video games here I was about to ask if either of you have ever done that at work but then I went that's more of an Afterparty question done what exactly let's meet in the Afterparty
