bour nerdgasm listeners welcome to multiple nerdgasm with your hosts Matt Luke and Dan multiple nerdgasm your guide to All Things nerdy did I do it right I had enough practice Good Morgan sounds right to me no there's one French phrase that you need to to prove that you can now say look I'll be honest I think listening back to that recording that Luke actually pronounced it better than you or I did we making fun not being able to say it I mean he did get a lot of practice in but uh yeah that [ __ ] waiter would not let him quit yeah the whitest Nigerian I've ever

seen I don't know what I did to him he I think he just he just like that guy is not going to be able to speak French actually what I think is he's probably a listener so he knows that I'm not really good at talking words I think we have a lot of non non-english speaking listeners yeah we did suspect we had a lot of Nigerian listeners so um shout out to you guys so how's how you going what's good to be back in uh good to be back home everybody yeah everyone's back home now after our little Parisian trist I can me jet lag do not get along mhm can imagine you uh so you you flew back from uh from Scotland correct yes after all that you had quite a sort of yeah so I sort of messed you guys when I left and then was was 35 hours later or

something I went I'm home yeah I don't miss that I got to say I do not miss that it took us we got home within I think probably 12 hours all up we got home yeah I mean America really has spent the last century making sure it's the very center of the world doesn't it well I mean they don't control their position from Europe Dan sure sure let's let's be uh but yeah the uh I I don't think it's I don't think Australia can really just go we're going to make ourselves a c and everything just moves closer well we'll see we'll see our time will come one day but yeah I decided to cuz I've been sleeping a bit weird I decided I have a little nap this afternoon fresh food podcast what's a bit weird for you cuz I

know that sometimes you sleep standing up so you know what I mean yeah and listeners he also sleeps with a mask on to uh to prevent him from not breathing yes a bit weird is my hours of sleep onesie I like my onesies my ass as sleep are a bit weird so I decid to have a bit of a nap this afternoon just to be fresh for the podcast right how do you feel I'm now not fresh for the podcast cuz I didn't nap I slept yeah napping for 7 hours and I've just woken up apparently the trick for napping is just to do like a little tiny bit but I'm like well that doesn't I don't understand I can't control that I'm out if I if I go to sleep I'm asleep oh man I love a good I love a good 1 hour nap yeah hour see I I can't nap I'm like Matt like I I tried

nap but no it just turns into sleep yeah and midnight I can't I can't do a 1 hour nap at midnight but you know if it's like 3 in the afternoon on a weekend and I realize I've got nothing to do I'm like oh I could get it a nap now so I just go games yeah I would I'd probably do something else I played a lot of games yesterday because I am [ __ ] enjoying Far Cry 5 hey I uh I finished it hey oh you did now I can't talk to you about it until Dan finishes it yeah well is there a lot of spoilers in the end I mean you know I mean well for you guys to discuss it put it that way well what's the the the cult Leader's name I forget it's been a long

time since I played the game the father let me just say he was right okay well fantastic yeah I am not but all his sings but just yeah they they were right you uh you absolutely should treat other people the way that they were treating other people yeah mhm is there a way I can just switch sides there now and put myself in a better position towards the end of the game I think you got to do that right at the beginning otherwise yeah yeah sure and then the game takes about 20 minutes to finish yeah but uh good game very good game really really enjoy it um now I would recommend have a little bit of a break play something else before playing the second one I already started it but

all right so tell us tell us what the second one is well certain aspects of it will require spoilers you can't talk about yeah just going to have to explain it there are spoilers it's it's yeah it's literally a sequel of sorts so the whole game's a spoiler in other words yeah yeah sort of yeah well no so I'm going to guess some kind of some kind of rapture happens at the end of this and then the second one is set in the future while people are picking up the pieces exactly sort of yeah yeah awesome and I can't wait and uh and it's good it's it's basically the same game uh with things changed around a bit to make it a bit I mean basically to make it a bit fresh as far as it goes and then uh and that's cool cool yeah it's just you know like

all the the skill trees and stuff are different obviously and uh MH world's changed a bit but uh I like it it's more colorful but it's the same map right it is the same map but but yeah things things have changed it's it's cool it's very cool hey I've got a question and I could probably just Google this but um when I'm going into stores and I'm looking at things that I can upgrade right I've already got certain items that I can equip um relating to Primal and blood dragon is that because I have two games and if I had other Far Cry games I'd have even more stuff yeah I had um the blood dragon stuff I didn't have the Primal stuff and I almost feel like the there's a the blood dragon sniper rifle that you

get is kind of cheating at the start of the game a little too good is it you can yeah you can I just nail every fun but I just don't use them yeah I try not to do that I used it at first I was like well well cuz the the stter weapons you know the specs on them are pretty low and then it's like you've got this sniper rifle that's just [ __ ] 10 on damage and I was like yeah I'll just use that then and then it was kind of like well I'm I'm not really challenged with this man nailing people in their head with an arrow with that [ __ ] compound bow is the most satisfying piece of combat in any game I've ever played yeah so good [ __ ] C five people check it out who knew man [ __ ] great music kind to came out what 2 3 years ago been that long my god well it's the first Far Cry I've played

other than some of the spin-off games missing out this whole time there's a game that just came out that we've played a bit of Luke you and J and I played a bit of yeah I noticed you guys were having a go with that Borderlands 3 yep bordland uh it's Borderlands yeah okay yep that looks better than the last game yeah sure it's the same game yeah quite similar uh the just the menus confuse me because they're different but I'll get used to it and it's still fun and it's still funny and uh I'm going to enjoy it there's one thing that's really annoying me in the game so in Borderlands 2 that had like badass points and ranks and stuff so yeah it's locked that's gone yeah oh yeah it's locked but there's

also there's other things you get where they like kill so many people with this type of weapon and stuff it's just so hard to find it wait so I can do something with those I I thought that was that's why I was confused right so you've got this you go into the setting well not settings you you've got your your inventory and your map and all that kind of stuff and then there's the last one which looks like the badass ranking thing but it's locked lock to the end of the game yes correct but there's also other ones so you probably noticed that you've been unlocking stuff yeah I thought that was just that other thing and that's why I was confused I was like why do I care about that I can't even use it yet no to get what that's giving you that's giving

you idium that you can spend in the store now to get into that screen you have to go into map scroll across uh hit right on the d-pad to go to challenges right and then hit Y button to go all the way back up to the top of the world map and there you can see them [ __ ] hell it's really confusing really annoying I just bring back the bad badass ranks I enjoyed that this there there are some bugs Let's uh let's be honest uh it doesn't run great uh it it doesn't run great when you're playing it split screen it runs [ __ ] awfully uh we were originally cuz Jenna and I always played Borderlands 2 split screen uh and we tried to play this split screen first of all no vertical

split screen which I know we're the only people in the [ __ ] world that want that but God damn it we want that and now you're used to that as well exactly um because the it's a WID screen like splitting it like horizontally like now I've got this like ridiculously wide thing it's it's weird like I think the reason why you're able to play Borderlands 2 split screen so easily is remember Borderland 2 is an Xbox 360 game oh I know yeah on the Xbox I understand but then don't offer it if if you can't do it don't offer it like well it it'll work on the Xbox One X yeah fine it's all about giving them more money well so first of of all the performance was bad and also there there's some bugs where like if I pull

up my inventory it will cover half of Jenna's scen like View and so it was just like this is [ __ ] stupid so yeah we went we switched to uh two Xboxes like [ __ ] animals what you lose a war but but other than that it's fun and uh yeah there are some bugs I've seen is clap trap still in this one yep certainly is getting guy doing the voice oh so they decided not to pay that guy they'll just get a new guy yep well they offered for him to come back yeah not for money no no no no he can't pay the guy with punching him in the face were going to they were going to pay him for this but he wanted be paid for his for the work already like what a [ __ ] pain in the

ass he wouldn't come back for [ __ ] a bad credit risk of the third game in a series of of three that he I know we've never paid you before but this time we promise yeah do it first he was paid before I know I know he was an employee I'm with 2K on this one I know it's it's different he was an employ to do the voice yeah yeah yeah but you if you want to get paid for it you discuss that at the time of if there was literally if there was no discussion that's on him for the first one kind of like if we were if we were like let's make a video game of multiple nerdgasm and then we were all just like oh we'll just do our own voices and then for some reason it becomes huge and then in in like 10 years time Luke's all of a sudden like well you didn't [ __ ] pay me for the

first game and we're like well that's not how it worked back then yeah I think that's the situation right yeah although it does raised into question the fact that they are still doing that at gearbox I think employes to rep L if we needed to come up with a new voice I don't think it's possible to replace luk that's what he keeps telling his bosses at work yeah um I just don't think you can uh I say Vincent Van go or that guy who does the Vincent B go tour in uh in Scotland sure yeah okay so close to going on that but he looks exactly the same as you looks looks like me but thing I'd have to go learn a lot about Vincent Van Go you go on a tour to learn about it you don't have to know anything and also he talks like this hello welcome to multiple

nerdgasm it's caught myself towards the end of leaving Scotland I picked myself up stting to pick up the accent did you long you get a sneak peek what would you like me to see cuz I've been in Singapore for 5 years and if I started to pick up the accent it would be incredibly weird so you'd probably be accused of of a little little racism there if you yeah yeah yeah and I think that's what the racism is part of the reason why I don't think I can learn French I they're not a different RAC me to actually speak French you need to do the accent as well you to do the you learn yeah but if I'm putting on the accent I feel like I'm making fun of

them so I can't I can't say the words correctly cuz I'm not doing the accent you should try speak I can't do I can't do an American accent without doing a funny voice because I don't know like I I can't just do my own voice in an American you know I mean yeah yeah yeah do who do you do when you do an American accent uh well there's a few there's like a Southern accent you can do there like California kind of accent like you could talk like Rees dude yeah totally uh you know that kind of thing but I can't or like or like some sort of military accent sir but you can't do like can you do a Rhode Island accent like a New England accent I don't think so like a Boston kind of accent no that's

more I don't know I'd have to practice all right please practice and we'll pick this up next week sure Luke is there a c accent because Australia does have some Regional accents you know we're from the western suburbs we talk different to my ex different to way who lived on the North Shore um yeah Brisbane is is it can Baron accent a specific accent I don't like C bearing is just a cuz no one really is brought up in canar most people move here right there are no children in CRA so there's no real allowed to live there but I I have just a full-on Westy accent yeah oh well that's that's that's our

heritage isn't it mhm yep although my accent I never had people tell me I don't have an accent which I don't understand how can I not have an accent exactly got the matte accent but people don't notice that I'm not American unless you know until some time has passed and then they're like oh you have an accent yeah that's because you're doing your your southern accent yeah yeah well this is me little old Matthew ham how's it going good day mate yeah I'm from Australia just here to pick up some groceries for back at the house please stop that you guys watch the uh you guys watch the Apple keyote this week yeah I did yeah still a thing always watch not

really not really Luke the answer the that no look I feel like there's some good stuff this time uh new phone new computer well it's not a new phone it's the old phone with a couple of more lenses on it yeah and not a new computer they didn't not a new computer new watch the watch isy a million watches well it's the screen's always on now which is cool uh cuz that is kind of annoying yeah because well does it come when you look at it yeah but the there's nothing more Awkward right than being in a meeting or in a conversation and thinking oh [ __ ] what time is it and then having to very dramatically lift your watch up to your face cuz that just it's like saying I'm not [ __ ] listening to you

like so to have it just be on so you can just kind of glance at it you know like a normal watch would be use I still I don't know I just find the screens are just so small on them okay I mean mine's fine I fine but yeah fair enough you've got I think it's just cuz I'm used to do you mean the apple one specifically or all of them you've got you've got several watches I've got a few and the screens they're around and they're bigger yeah or I think they are anyway 40 cm I think is the big yeah mine 46 42 I think yeah well fair enough but it's not it's not a measuring test no it's true and the new phones I me I'll get the new phone cuz I get uh I

get a yearly upgrade on my phone plan now so I I mean I'll get one of the new ones that's uh so is it going to be iPhone 11 or yeah I'm probably not going to get the pro oh for like listeners if you if you didn't catch the keynote or if you're not quite sure what the difference is they've got the iPhone 11 and the iPhone 11 Pro now which I feel like is probably better naming than the garbage they had last year with the XR and that Xs and the XS Max like what the [ __ ] does that all mean so iPhone 11 iPhone 11 Pro fine and the pro has got three [ __ ] lenses on the back of it but just to be clear the the 11 is the one that's come out after the 8 right yes yeah it's it went 8X 11 well they went 8 XR M and now 11 and then so now it's going it's

gone X Xs and I'm holding out for the Holding Out for the iPhone 9 I think that's going be the best one yeah so what I'm getting feeling of they're really doubling down and just trying to have a really good camera yeah so the the the iPhone 11 the the the Basse one has got two lenses it's got the the standard you know lens and it's got a super wide and then the pro has got those two plus the telescopic one that is the current second lens on the phone I have if I was to upgrade my phone which is just the regular iPhone 10 to the regular iPhone 11 I would have one less lens than I currently do now and I would have to get the plus to get another lens that I could actually use because wider lens than this is [ __ ] ridiculous why

would I ever need to go wider this is a super it's like 11 mm this lens it's ridiculous I like wide so I'm kind of more interested in the wide L but do when you are taking dick pics you you do need to I need yeah the wider the better you need that that length yeah but if I could do satellite photography from my phone that would be helpful I mean it it takes you so long because you got to do the Panorama you got to scroll along it and it's and it vertical Panorama it doesn't like it when you do that it gets confused cuz it's like no you got to hold the phone straight up luckily that you're always horizontal yeah and there's some new colors uh I'll probably get a purple one just cuz yeah you can't get the purple one the purple

one's in the the regular if you want the I'm going to get the regular one I don't think I'm going to get the pro I don't think I oh really okay yeah jez I I just love love how people run out and get color phones and then they just go and buy a case anyway yeah see I'm not see they this is the thing now that I so the the T-Mobile plan I'm on you pay a little bit extra and you get get apple care and then you get I think it's called jump and then every year you just take the phone back in and they I wouldn't put I wouldn't put a case on if I could just get a new one every year for sure yeah [ __ ] it and and it's insured anyway so I I yeah I have apparently this one is more durable than ones in previous years yeah my only problem with them without a case is how

slippery they are not because I keep dropping them just because it's [ __ ] annoying and they slide around in sperm but yeah like for for example I was using it on on the trip I I watched the expanse which I finished by the way season probably close to finishing my God good shut up I've only done the first season okay so [ __ ] good I can't believe or I can believe but I just it baffles me that sci-fi canceled it and I was like they probably canel it no one watches sci-fi Matt like it's probably not that it was a rating it's probably just they don't have any money to make shows no I I looked it up the reason that they canceled it was because uh sci-fi had they only get paid for like the first run or something which means unless

people literally watched it on cable on sci-fi they didn't get any money and then for the streaming it went to someone else like you know rights holders why yeah why would you keep making so what you're telling me is that because I got it off the Pirate Bay they're not getting any cash from me well even if you'd watched it legally on cuz I watched it on Amazon uh but if you had watched it on the Sci-Fi streaming service back in the day when it was still on sci-fi they still wouldn't have got as much money because of the deal they struck cuz it was during that transition period you know like a few years back yeah and so now Amazon presumably got a better deal and so we're getting uh season five even they've they've confirmed I think oh wow

so yeah yeah cuz yeah I've been watching it and it's just it's such it's [ __ ] good Sci-Fi it's like it's interesting and weird but it's not so weird that it's not like feasible I got up to the big shock in the middle right yeah yeah yeah I'm just going to adjust my hat great now I'm going to be [ __ ] waiting for a big shock no no no trust me there's a shock in every season yeah and you can't predict this [ __ ] that's what that's what I'm saying so would you say a shock in the first season trying to remember the first season yeah I'm I I was about to say something and I'm like that's not the first season don't no no that's that's definitely the second there's one character whose acting I don't really buy and I'm hoping that I either get used to it or it kind

of evens itself out as it goes is it a main character it's a main character it's a very very handsome main character someone I think that might have been cast for their looks rather than their acting abilities I wouldn't say any of him that attractive well I'm not saying I'm attracted to him just saying he's good he's a good looking boy they all right be Amos Amos is my [ __ ] favorite character you know what I don't think I know anyone's name Amos is the you know the the tough [ __ ] pragmatic guy the guy who just kills everybody oh he's he's [ __ ] hilarious like later like he's just yeah yeah his character just gets better as this episodes go on just his complete lack of [ __ ] empathy is hilarious like but then he's also nice guy at the same time yeah he just

doesn't he's just missing something and so it makes it funny cuz he's he hasn't quite been a nice guy yet but he doesn't it doesn't surprise me that you it's he wants to do the right thing he just doesn't know how like that's what makes it funny like he just doesn't know like what do you mean why can't I kill him like sure yeah I love him and Joe Miller the the cop investigator I want to get his haircut [ __ ] man if I could pull that off I certainly would yeah you'd have to be in the future on a space station yeah yeah no you just got to do it with confidence and have a hat to cover it up occasionally yeah for business meetings and such that's me look into it yeah look I'm going to I certainly loved season one I'm going to

push on with season two but I went back because I had paused uh paused men in the High Castle season 3 have a look at it uh and [ __ ] me [ __ ] me um I'm about 2/3 of the way through but man it's going plac I never expected it to go Amazon is killing it oh I know Season 3 man [ __ ] hell I mean if uh if if if you think that this is a show that wouldn't have a seene where a guy a Nazi is [ __ ] shooting civilians and then runs out of bullets just before he [ __ ] shoots this little kid and so picks the little kid up by the feet swings him around a couple of times and then smashes the kid's head into a wall I mean like I was like are they going to cut away no okay oh I don't know if I

want to watch it now then it's got it like they yeah it's it's I I'm constantly surprised by it by like how just how far they go with it it's [ __ ] amazing yeah it's and not only that but the plot like I don't want to give away but it goes like fullon almost like not as over the top but like Wolfenstein [ __ ] style like Nazis are up to [ __ ] like I mean it's a it certainly plays into the Sci-Fi more in the third season than it has in the first and second it's taken something that was a little bit more philosophical and it's just been like not sci-fi yeah it's yes like first of all it was like what if what if you know the the axis had won and then it's like what if they w one and

also developed all this [ __ ] space technology yeah yeah uh but I was watching it and and there was a character that was in Peril I'm like well they're not going to kill a main character and then they didn't and I was like yeah typical and then the next scene they killed a different main character so uh pretty interesting I'm assuming that gets resolved though through science fiction um one thing that I watched this week I watched the Wood movie oh [ __ ] I got see I got to watch that but Jenna hasn't seen the series yet and so like I mean look she could watch it and just pick up on it I mean if she's not interested in watching the series she could still watch the film

and and follow it along I think right it's a stand it's a standalone film yeah well you know what it more than that it's like the first two episodes of a hypothetical season 4 that never existed like it's it's not I loved it right so I'll preface with this by saying that I loved it but I don't understand why they bothered making it because it wasn't particularly exciting and not a lot happened in it it was just like it was two more episodes cuz it's 2 hours long in another series that just ended after two episodes you know I mean if I was going to make a movie of it especially to close everything off it would be like [ __ ] [ __ ] balls of the wall crazy yeah but maybe they're just putting this out there to see if people are still

interested in this property and maybe they want to make more I don't know I hope or maybe they just wanted to all hang out together but just couldn't find the time so they thought if they make this project we can get everyone in Pay everyone and have a costumes everyone bring you your a costume yeah yeah I because I think it was difficult for them to get everyone together so I don't I don't know I took years for we get anything else out of him as far as no look I don't I don't mean to play it down it was very good it's it's it's but it wasn't anything different to just the series it didn't go into movie level right yeah okay it didn't wrap the story up I mean it did it wrapped up a couple of things in started a couple they introduced new characters which I

thought was bizarre because I'm like well where does this go right yeah okay it really just seemed like it was the start of a new series yeah you do have just watch it and you know mat I mean I'm I don't want to blow your mind but you could watch this without Jenner like you could you could just watch it on your own I watched the expanse on my own okay so too much space politics yeah yeah I love space politics I do too now yeah I didn't know I did but now I do watch Babylon 5 I didn't like space politics in The Phantom Menace for example oh we going to talk about are we going to Craig probably got excited because we haven't mentioned Star Wars yet

but L happened while we Craig do you need a cup of coffee or something go make yourself one come back in 5 minutes we'll have five minutes of Star Wars and then we'll we'll get back to Dick we got we got a couple things to talk about yeah uh what do you want to start I thinking we could probably go with the con the panel the convention was cancelled yeah that's interesting it was very interesting wasn't it so uh suspicious there was a panel there was suspicious even before it was cancelled that Hayden was even there well give yeah give a bit of backstory for the listeners who don't know oh so um what was it what was the convention it was just ComiCon Salt Lake City or something f x yeah FX and they're having a panel with Ian

mcder who plays the Emperor Senator Palpatine and Christensen who is famous destroying just um Anin Skywalker character no he was the second person to destroy you and and he he destroyed it the second most out of anyone oh yes but um uh interesting that it would be those two because you could argue that Ian mcder done with his role in Star Wars other than some hints in the latest trailer that he's going to crop up hints is fairly [ __ ] expit yeah he's in The Post St but if that's the case right if he now is in episode 9 why is it him and Hayden Christensen yes answer me that mat okay I like the conspiracy theories and everything however Hayden Christenson

appeared at uh I think Ro was at Rhode Island ComiCon last year right I think sometimes he wasn't on a panel though turned up no no no I'm I think think you know they'll take who they can get if Aiden Christenson said yeah I'll come to you convention and E mcj said I'll come to you convention then they're like we'll do a [ __ ] Star Wars panel sure so if that's all that happen my prediction it's ghost Anakin well that's certainly been discussed ghost Anakin's going to come down speak to kylo and go I don't mean to be a party maybe maybe look if it was just the fact that there'd been a panel with in mcder and Hayden Christensen we'd still be speculating but that's not what happened because the panel never

came about because Star Wars TM the [ __ ] conglomerate right the mouse saw that this was going to happen and went no shutting this down the [ __ ] are you two up to which weird they were even able to book it and it was cuz it was shut down very late just before it happened yeah it is almost like they were worried that Hayden and I appearing together would give something away or maybe just that one of them would say something like one of them being Ian MCD the only one who will know anything about it cuz why the [ __ ] would Christians have anything to do with this yeah that's what I'm saying maybe they worried that the audience will trick into saying something about on his own not but if Hayden's

there they'd like find a way get Hayden you know imagine if they had [ __ ] I mean this would never happened these days but if [ __ ] um David Pro was in oh yeah Hees they' be like he's not letting any panels [ __ ] ever until this comes out I'd be less sus this panel was Ian mcder and David prow because at least those two were like in one of the first wave Star Wars movies well they obviously Anakin and the emperor work together Weir movies in between those now I saw them film a scen together I just don't I don't know I I understand the speculation but I just don't think it's that weird I think Disney canceling it is a little huh okay made it weird yeah other than that it's not weird yeah yeah and and they possibly just canel

because they were like no that's not an official thing and you have to clear this by us so no like they've got a I think at R Island ComiCon they've got a National Lampoon reunion because what you know chvy Chase and all the other people are going to be there doesn't mean they're making a sequel like just why why would they have to clear it through Disney to get people to come in that sounds mat is that happening this year at Rhode Island ComicCon cuz that's something I would definitely go to man do you still have does Rhode Island still have Necronomicon uh we have uh teron which uh which we may be attending okay cuz you yeah I know that one but you guys used to have in Rhode Island NE con which was a HP Lovecraft uh con yeah probably I'll double check uh actually

and yes it is this year chubby Chase is there Beverly dangelo is there a bunch of them Christy Brinkley um then I'm not going he's speaking of HP Lovecraft can't search this page because they're all images so there's no text to search can't search have to scroll through and look Matt did you know that the guy and I I know his name and I'm not going to look it up but the guy who directed uh Beyond the Black rainbow and Mandy oh yeah has also adapted lovecrafts the color out of space is that the Nicholas Cage one that's coming out yes it is I didn't know he directed that that's [ __ ] excellent all right cool I mean if anyone's going to do justice to Colorado space maybe it's him so I'm on board all right I wouldn't have necessarily cast

Nick Cage in it though he's still getting work well from this guy is this cage is [ __ ] awesome sorry do we we need to play the Nick Cage news jingle that's been a while well Nick Cage walked into the room and he asked of his manager is there any Nick Cage news Nick Cage's manager turned to Nick Cage and said of course there's Nick Cage news Nick Cage is the biggest movie star in the whole wide world and things are only going to get bigger now take a look at this script right here it's about a manmade of [Applause] wicker yeah there's anything wrong with Nick Cage I'm just saying there is a time where some people just need to learn to fade away yeah there's a time

place for Nicholas Cage like Shan connory faded away you know we've got some uh got some Shan connory news this week do we who's he SL we do you want to no no one slapped him and he didn't slap anyone but he possibly controls the weather right going okay so um so in the Bahamas this week uh was a with a devastating weather event uh that they call hurricane Dorian oh sure yeah yeah we had to flight home was longer cuz we have to around it okay well yeah poor you man I guess I gu guess you're the real victim yeah it was a disaster I finally understand what all these people have

been complaining about yeah hundreds dead um yeah yeah but uh for some reason right in the middle of all the devastation Standing Tall unaffected by Hurricane Dorian is Sean Conor's mansion that's fine so you know I slap that storm right out of there sometimes you just have to to uh sometimes a storm wants the last word and you give it the last word and it's still not enough it's like that uh it was Anthony Hopkins house that was just not devastated by the bush fires in uh in San Francisco I think susp all conspiracy yeah yeah well there you go I one thing on the on the road onland ComiCon

website I I find this strange just because I guess my taste in celebrities differs from the rest of the worlds cuz they've got they split up into sections right you've got Headliners which are like the you know the to the main celebrities that they going to be there yeah and there's some people in there that yep sure you've got Cherry Chase Dave Batista pom Clemen from guardians Benedict Wong uh William Shatner okay right the sh William Shatner's five down under Benedict Wong yeah he is he is well this is I find this strange right and then underneath that you've just got you've got head lers and then under that you've just got celebrities it's just you know the other

people who are going to be there right down in celebrities you've got people like uh Peter citz who yeah I like him uh luo's down there Lu but there are some people down here Rose MAA from I zombie uh all the people from Umbrella Academy right who I I consider them to be pretty topical celebrities at this point right yeah no the guy who plays chewbaca now he's down there sure but I'll tell you what up in Headliners up in Headliners you've got Mark Paul gosler from Saved by the Bell he's a headliner yeah what but you know I mean we know who [ __ ] Paul gosler is it's just so weird to me that he's up the top and then you've got all these

like [ __ ] Elizabeth Berkeley she's down theot she's from the Umbrella Academy with the Umbrella Academy I I understand Maybe they're all not Headliners but you would have them all together as being a headliner so you have like that up there I mean look I'm I'm looking at the lineup now D the little guy from Pirates of the Caribbeans in there going to be there oh my God maybe I've got to consider coming over maybe I mean you got The Usual Suspects there too George Decay is there because he just goes to everything I'm assuming he's not on the same panel as William Shatner no different days different days of course yeah Robert England's there Elijah wood Patrick wurton Richard [ __ ] dfus oh yeah I know yeah Richard that's a panel I would

go to holy [ __ ] yeah he's a headliner for sure he must be on the absolute upswing of his manic depression if he's turning up or something like this well hopefully it's a good day and he shows up but I don't know I just thought it was strange that uh Mark Paul gos is up there above Richard draus yeah and it is funny that Mark Paul Gosford is up there but Elizabeth Berkeley from the same [ __ ] show is uh is is down the bottom like but okay but let's let's also look at the audience though like Richard draus okay you want to go for the audience three down from Elizabeth Berkeley Felicia Day yeah yeah and that's yeah but that's what I'm saying like the audience they going for younger so they people aren't going to instantly go hey that's the guy

from jws also I find it strange but that's I guess this is just I see why the Patrick Burton the other guy who played The Tick is up as a Headliners with Peter seraphino who is currently the tick or most recently is not but then that's just me being butt Hur cuz I like Peter seraphino yeah look you can go and see Peter S and then Robert Patrick the next day I mean this is going to be a sweet [ __ ] Festival I'm hoping that uh some of these celebs that only I like will be as accessible as Lance Hendrickson was we'll see well you could go see John bar I can't imagine all the I can't imagine all the kids lining up to hang out with Richard draus so you never know you never know um speaking of which Dave Batista

will be there you know where he won't be anywhere else on that day he he well probably not he won't be on the set of Suicide Squad because the full cast has been revealed and he's not one of them oh I didn't notice that is he not he is not that's interesting was he meant to be well everyone assumed he would be yeah I thought he was going to be I mean John in there obviously in the cast yeah OB the usual suspect Sean gun's in there Michael Rook is in there um Jennifer Holland James gun's girlfriend's in there could it have something to do with his contract with Disney though uh uh maybe hey you can't go work on anything DC while you're in Marvel I don't know if James gun can do this if that F sure Jo Courtney is in this oh yeah

who else he was in the first one Joel kinman uh also in the first one ABS yeah yeah his abs are definitely going to be in this taer white TI in the casting yeah so happy for that interesting Yeah couple of new good not a not a dramatic actor obviously but I'm sure sure he have a good role uh Peter you know actually I should take that I don't know how good yeah Peter kabaly I don't know maybe ta TI is a good dramatic actor I shouldn't assume just never seen it let's uh let's assum me is for now Margo Robbie's in it I would love it if James gun just decided to be really subversive and cast Margo Robbie not as the same character she played in the first one just to piss everybody off she's playing

um the uh the the government agent who sends them all on the mission in blackace yeah uh yeah except that Violet Davis is is also in this maybe maybe they've swapped those roles around tell you what maybe maybe she plays that role Viola Davis plays the Will Smith role and maybe maybe pet he not in this plays Harley Quinn I would watch that I would [ __ ] watch the [ __ ] out of that yeah uh that would make that would be very funny yeah all right well uh this I mean this is shaping up to be to be more interesting than the first one uh we'll see yep Will Smith wasn't there was he no Will Smith's not there yeah I mean he's the he was the he basically saved

the first one in my opinion yeah like he was like the best thing out of the first one only because the he can I guess drag it out of the the bad film that it was into just that's a Will Smith movie at least a Will Smith movie yeah Will Smith knows how to do a lot with an absolutely appalling script I mean I even watch if it wasn't for him Bri like bright was was fine and watchable only because of him mhm like that I still say Bri made a great television series it wasn't a movie Wild Wild West and then now we've why have they made a sequel to Wild Wild West I tell you why you know how much money it lost yeah no a lot a lot of money I'd watch a sequel he you know uh this week I read an article about uh the biggest box office flops of all time

right oh yeah so um Cutthroat Island that Matthew Modine who is going to be it Rhode Island Comic Con um is often touted as the biggest Financial flop uh of of all time um something else called Heaven's Gate and I'm not entirely sure that what that is I think that might be an old movie um but uh fairly recent movie has has overtaken as the movie that has lost the most money and I've seen this movie and I I didn't like it I must admit but I no but I am the target audience for this because I've read all the [ __ ] books and I love this [ __ ] so if I didn't like it I can see why no one else did John Carter of Mars is the biggest loss of any Hollywood movie according to this that movie was all right yeah it was okay but yeah that's but it didn't deserve the ha I thought I

think people but also I mean for starters they just called it John Carter so unless you knew who John Carter was which let's be honest is not a lot of people these days then no one was going to see it yeah yeah I mean at least Mars yeah so people okay I don't know who John Carter is but I love Mars so I'll got to [ __ ] see it it's very it's very um very old sci-fi 2o like it and it doesn't like it doesn't make any sense if you know about Mars you know what I mean but that's it was written in a time where we knew literally [ __ ] all about Mars yeah like oh he's he's super strong because the gravity is different on Mars okay yeah I love it that that's the first thing you site as why it couldn't possibly happen on the Mars we

know about it's not the many multitudes of alien races and their civilizations yeah but it's that's that's the what they how science fiction was back then like all the I'll also point out that he got to Mars by falling asleep in a cave that's right like all the ray Brad's old stuff where people hop in a rocket ship and they fly to Mars and then the Martians are like oh good how's it going like because they're just people living on Mars mhm hey did you guys happened to see I posted on social media this week a little 10-minute video about why there's a a piece of cardboard um taped to a lampshade in the old 1931 dragon I saw that you posted it but I didn't I

didn't get around to looking at it yet give yourself 10in break I didn't even see you posted it where did you post it posted it on uh good old Facebook and uh you should watch it it's [ __ ] interesting and funny and it has no right to be because it's all just about why is there a piece of cardboard in an old Dracula movie all right but Matt why is there why is there I don't know no one knows no one [ __ ] knows oh okay fair enough I got to watch 10 minutes for that I don't even get the answer the it's it's almost better that there's no answer if they if they figured it out it would no matter what they came up with would have been disappointing and there's some theories but I mean mostly it's just it's just

conjecture conjecture I don't think that's word sorry we we've gone off topic because we're actually in Star Wars news that's true well the other thing interesting that sort of happened is they're trying to explain what people are calling a plot hole M I just think it was very poor writing by George Lucas but the whole that seems unlikely yeah good old first draft George Lucas in Return of the Jedi Luke's asking later about their mother and she actually goes she died when very young I remember her though she was sad she was beautiful caring but she was very sad and then she was as we all know in Revenge the Sith she was so sad she died

of it she just died birth she was really sad 30 seconds after giving birth maybe I haven't explained quite how sad she was she was very sad sad to [Laughter] death but a comic book that's just com out was coming out actually has a moment in it where stop it really her adoptive mother mhm is sad sits her down when she's very young says I'm so sad and I think tells her the story of Queen amadala starting with you know your mom was [ __ ] sad AR You Beautiful sad not even your birth could cheer her up but yeah I don't even this seems a bit weird I hate when they do this as a way of fix yeah they're sitting in front of a statue of amadala yeah so that's how come she thinks she saw

her and then she goes Leah love Leah love I know you're too young to understand all this to remember even she's Lally she's literally speaking to her baby as well I like to that out like they didn't even go okay it was when she was five or six she like learned no no there's a a comic coming out as well might be out by now where snoke and kylo ren go to deab bar to the cave yes and then I saw there's a funny Tweet someone said [ __ ] cuz that's the that's the story everyone was begging to hear about yeah I know but there was like it was like you know when they were making doing you know like the the pre-production for The Last Jedi and they were like oh this is a kind of a robe that snoke would wear it's gold uh he probably wears it in the throne room

all that kind of thing you know formal occasion and then when they were doing all the expanded universe stuff they were like this is the only piece of clothing this character ever wears even when he's out in the [ __ ] swamps of deab bar snoke wears his [ __ ] gold robe well I've got to look fabulous yeah people Star Wars characters only literally wear the same [ __ ] clothes always they occasionally change outfit to a new outfit and then never wear the old outfit or anything else for a while they're like no I'm going with the best yeah this is my new clothes until people get sick of the toys of me that look like this and then I'll wear a new one yeah I do I do remember when um Return of the Jedi came out I I saw the toys at

a toy shop before I'd seen the film and um this was back before spoilers would would piss you off I was just like looking at them like what the [ __ ] is this what the [ __ ] is an ewok oh my God and then I was like ah [ __ ] H Holo has a trench coat it was it was very exciting I gotta buy a trench it was his little camo gear I've got that believe this of the movie yeah those little helmets they all wore on uh on yes on uh indoor or the moon of Endor whatever that is is it a moon or or is it the forest moon it's the forest Moon of Endor is it a forest moon or is it the forest moon like yeah the moon of Endor is called the forest it's the forest comma Moon of Endor is it called is it Forest moon or is it just a forest

Moon you know what I'm saying no no it's the forest Moon cuz it's the desert moon and the ice Moon as we all know you get one terrain yeah hey um or Endor is Endor the forest moon or is it the forest Moon of Endor like end Endor planet have many moons and they have to distinguish them by their ter I find it unlikely that one planet would have several moons that are any different from one another at all right in terms of in terms of atmosphere and vegetation but just that it's unclear to me what what is named Endor yeah the planet or the Moon is okay here we have don't look also known as the forest Moon of indor or Sanctuary moon was a small forested Moon that orbited the outer rim planet of the same

name okay oh yeah so they just to fix it that just like they're both called Endor don't worry yeah yes but like there's Endor and it can't just be the moon of Endor it's like which moon like oh the forest Moon of Endor oh okay now I what you're talking about the moon was covered in dense Woodlands tall yep it contain brial atmosphere to humans it also has two suns wait how can a moon two Endor two on moon has two sons hold on hold on no no the planet had two sons Endor one and Endor two okay wait a minute okay I I still have a problem with this how does one planet orbit two suns surely if two suns are close enough to each other if two suns are close enough to each other to have a single planet orbit them then surely their gra P them both together and

create a black hole that would swallow the entire I mean a fre body problem it's how does a how does a planet orbit two two suns I think this is actually a thing I'm probably F not a I'm not a scientist about okay we'll get someone who is M we don't know okay so what happens is the suns are actually orbiting each other and then and then the planet goes around both I don't know if that can happen you're not going yes no you can't I mean is it like when you hold those two silver balls in your hand and you just wiggle them around like this it's literally just two sons that can't get close enough to each other because of M silver but yeah probably the same now also what happens is is because of the gravity that the two suns are creating you're not the

planet's not circling like in a circle motion it's more of an oval back yeah that's that's literally all orbits but so what you're saying is that the the two suns are orbiting each other in other words they're just spinning like a giant fidget spinner right yes and they themselves as a single entity is causing enough gravable force that a planet IE Endor is in orbit around both of them at once it doesn't go around one and then around the other like a figure eight I got to say tne also has two sons correct yes so this is not a this is not a new problem as far as Star Wars goes actually I did not know that Endor had two sons I didn't

either so they all have to at this point well hold on hold on okay let me put this out there right does tne have two sons or are two sons visible from tne okay here you go Endor one was one of two stars located at the center of the Endor system okay well there you go um the system's other sty was named Endor to and the pair were orbited by the gas giant Endor can you have a system a solar system with more than one solar I mean I just that would be two systems surely Dan it's in it's on Wikipedia it's fact yeah no but what I'm saying is that perhaps Tata only orbits one Sun but there is another very very big star far enough away but big enough that it can be visible behind the actual Su that it

does Orbit well we get look patreon.com multipl nerdgasm donate enough Mone and have a look yeah we'll book a flight out to T and take a look oh okay hold on I have some more information information in quotes yeah uh end all one was first mention stop in the reference book sols absolutely everything you need to know in the expanded universe which is deemed non Canon so now Endor system only had one son okay okay although just to put another spanner in the works oh no sorry that no sorry the one son was in the expanded universe which is non Canon no it's back to two sons for our us listeners a spanner is a wrench yeah that's right put a wrench in the works um I tell you what we might find out more about t sons in the Kenobi

series that they're making oh we might cuz that's been confirmed that was confirmed while we're away as well and it is has been confirmed that Yan's back isn't it yes y yep somebody it might have been McFarland or it could have been one of the other toy manufacturers did a Kenobi figurine maybe 5 or 10 years ago that was like a hybrid halfway between um Alec Guinness and ah you're MRE you McGregor thank you oh okay I was about to say Al Guinness and I'm like I think you already said Al Guinness yeah yeah you know it's like it's like a slightly older youan McGregor morphed with a slightly younger Alec Guinness with like Cool Desert terrain gear on H yeah right well and I'm hoping it'll be that yeah it could be very boring but I doubt that would make a I doubt they

would do it if it was going to be boring so yeah I'm pretty sure it's not just going to be an old man watching a young boy in the desert yeah well did I tell you guys I went to mares oh yeah that's right you did did you watch a young boy in the desert well that's all it was to do there it was quite boring um just jumping back though to Lug you're talking about Legends not being Canon anymore um apparently it still confuses me well it's going to confuse you even more um what's the producer of the Mandalorian I can't remember anybody's name tonight [ __ ] director of Iron Man oh John favro um John fa thank you John favro has come out and said that he has drawn on many of the Star Wars Legends

for the Mandalorian Series so we may see things pop up that we saw come up in the books and the games and the rest of the expanded universe cuz the books were made the mandal orange really really interesting so like yeah as opposed to the filand was the leader but the mandalorians were basically they weren't an One race oh hang on they're in they're in like some of the TV shows there right you could become Clone Wars there was actually a series of books that was being written um stuff right like it was Canon at the time and then she was going to then George Lucas decided to make a change with the Mandalorian and so she went you just throwing away all my work and I'm not going to finish the series now fair

enough no no no women so is are the mandalorians more like the Jews in the sense that you can be born into the Jewish race but you could also convert to the religion of Judaism Yes you heard it very much likeone into the fold can't wait to bring anyone into the fold and yeah that's different then hey we got one more piece of Star Wars news that probably people are like why haven't they why haven't they talked about this the reason is because we talked about it whilst drunk in France yes oh yeah we did so they've already have they already heard this then no I mean we we we briefly mentioned it but uh as I said we were very drunk we weren't making a lot of sense and uh all right a lot of R got a

Ray's got a red lightsaber in the in the new footage and I'm I'm of the opinion that that probably won't even be in the film yeah and if it is it probably doesn't mean anything yeah my feeling is it's either going to be a dream or it's going to be she goes to deab bar well and goes into the tree I think um kylo walks off and she's like hey you dropped this picks it up for also this thing this [ __ ] foldy Audi double lightsaber is pretty NE it's a go- go gadget lightsaber but I've there's something about that shot in like that looks cheap that also makes me think it's not real it is just a trailer shot and it's not even a real trailer right but it's not it's not going to look it can't look that in the film it looks like it's just it's poorly executed in

my opinion the way it FS that looks stupid like I can't imagine that's actually in the film maybe they're just trolling people JJs nah he wouldn't do that well look it's not just that she's holding a red lights Saab but she's also wearing a cape looking a bit the hood yeah y Lando wears a cape there's also the lighting on it too also she looks super skinny so yeah look there's a few things about it that that just look like I don't think that's I don't think that's accurate so there's the other big rumor going around at the moment is a lot of clones God I hope not we've done that we have done that a a lot of clones no not just a clone a lot of clones so many [ __ ] clones well I think the big one

is it's going to be Emperor Palpatine as a clone they just threw [ __ ] anything anyone's everever mentioned in Star Wars into a bucket and shook it up and tipped out R of Skywalker yeah okay it's about clones and Emperor Palpatine the death St oh yeah he's evil maybe yeah yeah that's it everyone's turned evil even is evil using this using this sleep mask is amazing cuz I actually dream again now oh but I had a dream last night that was actually this was going to it was actually going to be that this was more journey of the whe so it's actually going to be a retelling of story right interesting so and that's why it goes a bit weird at some points and that was actually going to be revealed at the end

that yes this is just being a story that's being sort of played out and being explained by CIO oh the whole the whole nine movies yep jeez and he got a dream I want to hear all about it because if you guys remember back to like episode 30 or something of this podcast I actually had a dream about what I thought of what I thought the force awakens was going to be oh that's right yeah and we discussed that in great detail so I'm more than happy to have a whole episode dedicated to Luke's dream I'll also point out in this special look of Rise of Skywalker um kylo Ren and Ray are fighting on a boat I don't think we've seen a boat before is it a boat I think we've seen

SKS I think it's like a crashed spaceship or something maybe I don't know floating in a that's a boat float in the water you're a Bo a duck so I can float in water so I'm a boat Luke I'm also interested in hearing about your dream was Nellie Portman in it no she was not bet she was bet she was that's a different when you woke up did Natalie Portman turn to you and say what are you dreaming about honey [Laughter] no that's all for this week thank you for listening and we hope you enjoyed the show if you enjoyed it then please subscribe and item to receive episodes automatically we'll see you next time
