It's What We Do! Podcast
Rebel Ridge!
Ever wondered how a military veteran’s expertise in martial arts could unravel a web of small-town corruption? Join us on this thrilling episode of "It's What We Do" as we dissect Netflix's latest release, "Rebel Ridge." John and Hen kick things off by diving into the film's intense themes of justice and corruption, comparing its protagonist to iconic characters from "Reacher" and "First Blood." We'll praise the action-packed sequences while also scrutinizing some inconsistencies in the character's backstory.
Switching gears, we explore some fascinating elements of the action movie genre and quirky tidbits from the entertainment world. From an actor's strikingly unique eyes reminiscent of a husky’s heterochromia to non-lethal combat skills demonstrated by modern-day heroes, we cover it all. We'll also highlight the empathetic nature of protagonists and how it adds depth to their characters, drawing parallels to classics like "Rambo" while appreciating contemporary twists.
Wrapping up, we delve into a mix of amusing and thought-provoking topics ranging from strange customs in a fictional desert setting to Sebastian Stan's latest role in "The Apprentice." We also take a nostalgic look back at advice we'd give our younger selves, contemplating the impact of our life choices on the present. With new insights on "Dexter" prequels and sequels, this episode promises a fun, insightful ride through the latest in movies and TV shows.

You know it's what we do of the it's what we Do podcast and I'm sorry, I sound kind of terrible right now.
Speaker 2:I just had a nosebleed and I had a little thing in my nose Parting a little too hard nowadays.
Speaker 1:Parting a little bit too, just a little bit too hard, and then I don't know, sometimes you, just you know your limits but you want to surpass them anyway.
Speaker 2:I don't know what you're talking about. You never see me with a bloody nose on this podcast, so just keep those thoughts to yourself.
Speaker 1:And I'm John here with Hen, and today we are going to be talking about Rebel Ridge.
Speaker 2:Yes, and then at the it's what we Do podcast, we cover movies, tv shows and all types of content. Please like and subscribe Now, honey, on this fine movie, rebel Ridge that's on Netflix. That just released is number one on Netflix. Shout out number one, I guess, or whatever, who cares?
Speaker 1:What did you think of this movie? You know, it is nice to see the people fighting back for once. You know what I'm saying, because with all this, all these corrupt policemen and police brutality you know what I'm saying? And just the fact that in the smaller towns, I guess I feel like even in bigger cities people get away, cops get away with so many things and the stuff they get away with this man they literally took this man's money. He was trying to bail out his cousin.
Speaker 1:They took his money and they knew his ass was going to get killed if he ever went to prison. They did it anyway. They knew his ass was going to get killed if he ever went to prison. Yeah, they did it anyway.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I like the opening scene where they just hit him on the bike. I was like lawsuit man. This is my first immediate thought it was a lawsuit, but I was like oh these cops, don't care, they'll just kill him or whatever. Yeah, they'll just kill him bro.
Speaker 1:They just see anyone that's not this show. They just see anyone that's not this show.
Speaker 2:No, this movie was like it felt like a episode of it, felt like it could have been swapped out for Reacher, because this is exactly what Reacher does. He just goes to small town. They're like I don't like you. And then he was like, oh, he's military. Oh, look at him, he's a badass. Apparently. It was like, oh, no crap, he actually is a badass. Oh, it was a crime that needs to be discovered. Oh, there's some lady woman there and stuff that helps him. And this is like the same exact plot for season one of reacher and it was uh, yeah, it was, it was, it was fun riding and stuff, and I think it put. It feels like it's a combination of reacher season one or whatever, or maybe reacher in general, like his character and stuff, and then the movie uh, first blood uh with rambo and stuff, very similar vibes, even in rambo he goes fucking camping.
Speaker 2:And this one he goes camping too. I was like I mean, it makes sense, right, he doesn't have no money, no motels and stuff like them, hell. And then, uh, I thought it was just funny whenever they found out what he was like, I was like the oh yeah, because you are Marina, stuff. So. But I remember whenever he they said the thing, and you know it's going to be thing when the wifi comes back up, and then it was like martial arts instructor, I was like one of mine. Any weapon bro.
Speaker 2:When they were like he's on the Wikipedia, he's on the.
Speaker 1:Wikipedia page when they were hyping it up. Bro, I'm just like bro mcmuffin's just like it's mainly just grappling. Yeah, they made it sound like it was like muay thai or something, like he was a professional, like muay thai fighter, like professional mma athlete or something yeah nah, bro, I mean the ring court.
Speaker 1:They teach you like hand to hand and like grappling but, you don't learn like the real real, like hardcore stuff, unless you're like uh and marsog, like the special operations and stuff now imagine this all right, like, let's say, you're one of your, uh, when you were training and stuff like that.
Speaker 2:But when you see this guy, he's your fucking trainer. It was like, damn, he's on the wikipedia page. Yeah, he is on the wikipedia page. I thought that was like what. I was like, oh so he's just an instructor. I was like, oh no, he's on the wikipedia page. I was like that's the level he's at, like did he start this, or whatever? Yeah, and then I thought it was weird because in the beginning he was talking about going to iraq or going whatever right and then he never did yeah, and he never did, and so he just said stateside.
Speaker 2:So it was like maybe did I mishear that in the beginning?
Speaker 1:No, you didn't he said that right, yeah, he said that. They found a. They found a. Yeah, they found a. A use for him back home.
Speaker 2:But in the very beginning, when they looked at his tat and didn't he say that he went overseas, right?
Speaker 1:No, I don't think said something about his brothers being over there or something like that. Oh okay, yeah, um, but not like it's what it's. It's a job in the marine corps to be a an instructor for the yeah map, oh, okay, and so you can be that, as a corporal, which what he, which he is, and just a corporal yeah, he's just corporal oh, that's not, even that's well, I mean in the infantry it's.
Speaker 1:It's kind of high up there because there's so many infantrymen. Oh okay, so like corporal, like you get your salty corporals, or like like hardcore badasses and stuff, and then he was an instructor so he could have been anywhere from like boot, like instructing recruits at boot camp, to instructing marines at their duty stations uh, just was that, uh one mind any weapon?
Speaker 1:yeah, one mind any weapon and they do have belts, like the first belt's, tan, then you go to, I believe, then you go to green and then brown and then black, and then when you're black, you cannot get like tabs, like little red tabs that means like you go higher. Like one time I saw this one dude. He had like three red tabs, so you know he's like a badass. That's probably him. That probably is him.
Speaker 1:Yeah that probably is yeah, oh, there's a gray boat, so it's tan, gray, uh, green, brown and black, oh hell yeah, damn, wow, that's.
Speaker 2:It's just like there's so many like information and stuff with them and I think that's like does it make you like like understand this a little bit better, like about what the crap they were saying and stuff. I think they still overhyped it okay, I was just like, that's what I got from it and then, like you just talk about stuff like that, I was like I don't know what he's saying.
Speaker 1:I mean, it's not like he was like a like, a world-class like. And then, secondly, he wasn't even in.
Speaker 2:He didn't go into action anyway. He just was instructed how to do it on paper, right?
Speaker 1:He knew how to fight hand-to-hand, and he wasn't even killing these fools either. He was just disarming them and then hurting them really bad. He broke that one guy's arm, so he couldn't shoot.
Speaker 2:I was thinking it felt like God. I know it's not the same thing, but you know that one security guard this is what you do in defense and he does some things.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, he's like move away, move away. Yeah, oh, this is how you do it. Whenever you're in a circle, you just keep them moving.
Speaker 2:You just keep them moving, just go to the left, just sway to the left, just keep them away. I was just kind of picturing it like that, the way they described it, because it's like whenever they say, oh he's a badass, get away from him, get a step away from him. He goes do-do-do and he has to go, like that, just staring, he was like, how did you get the gun? He's so fast. I was just getting so funny vibes. I don't know I say this also not what you think about this little plot, about this little thing, about this little town with a little drama where they're like, hey, the cops just keep on taking everyone's money for property witnesses or whatever. I thought it was dumb too how they went over to the chinese restaurant in another city and then they're like, hey, we're gonna tear this shit apart. I thought that was pretty weird, because now it's bringing more eyes onto that business as well yeah, it's correct.
Speaker 1:Well, they're correct. Obviously, they're correct to begin with. Even the judge you know he doesn't like ever since they had like what something happened to the city or the town where they had to rebuild it or whatever, and the way they're paying for a lot of stuff was they were holding on to a lot of cash that they seized from people coming through and things like that, which, honestly, I mean it's terrible. They don't get what they deserve. Honestly, like the chief, they fired him. They arrested those other cops. The state troopers got involved and towards the end I thought they were going to get caught, but then the state police got involved and took care of those corrupt cops. Justice was lost. De la served Exactly, and at the end you see him grab the DVR from outside the cop car and then that's where it cuts off. I mean he won at that point.
Speaker 2:Oh, okay. And then one thing I thought about I didn't finish the movie. I didn't care enough to finish it. It was a good movie, it's just not my cup of tea. I guess it felt like a dad's kind of movie, where it's like action movie kind of thing, you know the good old-fashioned Rambo and stuff, yeah. And Reacher is the same 80s vibes. It's not my cup of tea. I like to watch things that will cry or see the God Emperor Leto Atreides number two. Just go on a TED Talk, man, that's my vibe, right, yeah. And then with this I was just like I don't care because it's like. But then one thing I thought about right now where I'm just I'm just sidetracking again. Uh, you know that thing where he was just like, hey, I'm not gonna fucking flip my lights, because if I flip my lights then the fucking cameras are rolling. What about the very beginning, whenever you hit him on the bike? Was that the crown royal car, like the older car, or was it like the the charger cruiser?
Speaker 1:I think it was a charger. Yeah, so then that would have his lights on.
Speaker 2:Yeah yeah, do you remember in the very beginning he's just following him fucking on and I thought that was such an asshole move, just fucking hitting his bike.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I was like you could have really killed him well, I didn't hear I, oh, I guess we could.
Speaker 2:It was for his perspective, so I guess we wouldn't have been able to hear it regardless yeah, and then like but then it's like on, if you're, why would you try to pull over a bike rider, kind of thing. Yeah, I mean, they were looking for something. And then the actor he also was in the Beach. That Makes you Old as well. He has been in other things. I think he was also in an episode of Supernatural where he played a twin. His eyes, that's the thing I kind of remember. He has colored eyes. It makes me uncomfortable because it's a. It's a combination, him being black and this huh yeah, yes, it's like.
Speaker 1:It's like when you look at a, like a husky, like. Their eyes are just like it's.
Speaker 2:Uh, my sister has a, um australian, uh, her dog an aussie, and uh, it has a white and black coat and then one of his eyes one of her eyes is a brown, the other one is blue. It's weird, she looked like the devil it's like they're staring into your soul yeah, yeah, exactly that's exactly what I said when she got her it was a very cute dog, no, lilo, her other dog is Bella. That's a brown dog. They're're both Aussies, okay.
Speaker 1:What did you think about this action? I felt like the choreography was really good, the way he was able to disarm everybody and he was beating the hell out of them without actually killing them.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:And you see what kind of person he is the fact that he's still willing to help a cop who did him wrong just because he got hurt. You know what I'm saying it couldn't be me. It couldn't be me either.
Speaker 2:In your experience as a Marine, and so how passionate are you about acronyms.
Speaker 1:I don't really care, they would have acronyms for everything, though they really did, they did, yeah, they did everything when you were just saying that whole thing about the.
Speaker 2:I think pace, I'll just yeah, pace, it is real.
Speaker 1:It's a real acronym it is, was that? Correct the one he said yeah, it is. Yeah is yeah, that's funny. But, there's so many Like you use, like a lot of them are used for like things that may happen out in the field, like the medevac that you might need sometimes because it's a lot of information you got to remember to write down, because when you're calling that information out on the radio you got to remember in what order it is and you gotta read it line by line type of thing, shit, yeah, that sounds very intense.
Speaker 1:It it can. That's why they use like acronyms, so it's like if you're ever in combat you can just break it down like in the simplest way it's an acronym gonna say line by line yeah and hopefully I'm just damn, that's crazy.
Speaker 2:Uh, I I don't know, that's just funny. Whenever he went through that whole thing, I was just like. This is very intense. I felt like it was a spelling bee yeah, not like a pop quiz, you know whenever they give you like acronyms.
Speaker 2:My dear aunt Sally went to the bar or something, whatever you know. Have you seen the first original good old fashioned Rambos before? No, never. Yeah, they're pretty cute. It's a lot simpler story. It's just like they just added a little spice of conspiracy into this kind of movie. Oh, the Rambo movie First Blood was a very cute one and stuff. And then, like in this one and stuff, he doesn't kill anyone, he just kind of booby traps. There's a guy that fell off the helicopter but hey, it's his fault for not having wings right. It feels like a modern retelling of Rambo with a splash of Reacher.
Speaker 1:That's what everybody said when they first saw the trailer. Like, oh, this is just Rambo.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I remember I'm always behind with the editing and stuff. I actually just posted an episode right now, the episode before. I'm always behind with the editing. I actually just posted an episode right now, Okay, and the episode before. I was listening to it and you kept on talking about it. I was like, yeah, it's the new Rambo. I was like what are you talking about? You're talking about this movie.
Speaker 1:Yeah, this movie, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:And see, now we're talking about it now full circle, right, full circle. Yeah, I don't have Desire to finish it and stuff, but do you think it was a great good movie and stuff?
Speaker 1:It was definitely a good movie, especially for like streaming A movie that just came on streaming services. Yeah, it has very good ratings as well it's been doing great numbers. Yeah, honestly, I definitely recommend it if you got nothing else to watch. But I will say that there are some parts that do get kind of boring, that you kind of got to skip Mainly the parts where they're like trying to figure out what to do, because I feel like it's like a lot of back and forth and running around.
Speaker 2:That's actually probably one of my favorites. I like the little investigating side crap too, oh, okay. Or I like the part whenever he, barely like you know he drove off with that one lady cop. And then you know he drove off with a one lady cop and then you know he was trying to like, brush it to get a sign by the judge or whatever. And that little moment where it was just like, oh, you need to turn this paper, okay, thank. Okay, here's my change, thank you, thank you, thank you, put it in my pocket and stuff and then the lady was running out to go to get the thing signed by the judge.
Speaker 2:I was like this is actually pretty tight because it's like. It's like you broke the rules but you're trying to still play by the rules, kind of situation.
Speaker 1:Oh, they hold that guy, bro, they hold him bad.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, he died. His cousin died, mikey, they call me Mikey he got killed yeah.
Speaker 2:Whenever he raced the fucking the truck no, the van, or no, the transport and it was like, come on, man, I'm getting you out. He was like what, this is a breakout. He was like, no, no, I'm gonna push bill, don't worry about it. Heck, no, uh, what's this guy? So it's a yay for you. Um, it's a yay. I'd say it's a yay for me. Yeah, it's not my cup. But then also like I think, if I'm watching on tv, because I was watching on my phone at work and stuff, so it was just like not too interesting.
Speaker 2:But yeah, newsy did a lot of twos. Okay, let's talk a little. A little hot and heavy news that we got going on. Uh, we got the confirmation or news that the constantine 2 script has been completed and it's done and stuff. And then it's waiting the inbox of the director or producer or whatever. No, producer, sorry producer, producer. And then he's just a little too scared to watch, to read it and stuff. It's supposed to have the original main cast, you know, starring Keanu Reeves to come back and other people from the original OG original recipe movie.
Speaker 1:This is DC right.
Speaker 2:Yes, it is. But I thought this movie was can't a long time ago, just, you know, just kind of thrown away behind the scenes kind of thing. But apparently it's somewhere in development. The script is written. Let's see where it does. Now it's has been. The next step is like production, I believe, and I wonder if it's going to be something like a, let's say, a whammy kazam, like a sandman kind of thing like that, where it is dc, has a dc branding and it has some characters, but then it's thrown off into it's own little corner standalone not in the standalones of, let's say, the Batman or the Joker, where they're advertised very heavily by DC as an Elseworld thing, but if it's in that small little corner that Sandman is in.
Speaker 2:I wonder if it's going to be like that and if it is so going to happen, if it fit in that small little corner that hassan man is in. I wonder if it's going to be like that and if it is still going to happen, if it's going to be a fucking direct to streaming or actually get a theoretical release. I assume theoretically release, but little is known to this. I'm surprised the script even got completed and, like you know, it's like apparently in development right now. I think that's just a crazy thing, because I thought it got canned as soon as Janice Ghost took the reins, you know, because they threw out everything he cleaned the house. It makes a lot of sense, but for this to be somewhere in development, I think it's just a crazy thing.
Speaker 1:Maybe he likes Constantine.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but then it's like it doesn't matter, it's just like game is game kind of situation he has to do something, he needs to make billions of dollars.
Speaker 1:I know what he needs to do.
Speaker 2:What.
Speaker 1:Bring Ryan Reynolds' Green Lantern bag.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, totally Speaking of Ryan Reynolds' Green Lantern, the actor Josh Brolin was offered the or it's rumored, or whatever was offered the or it's rumored or whatever Was offered the role of Hal Jordan in Green Lantern In the Lantern show.
Speaker 1:Josh Brolin Thanos. Yeah, I was going to say he's too old for that, isn't he?
Speaker 2:The way that I understood it was. It's because they're going to have Jon Stewart the young cat. Oh, okay, so it's going to be the old, grisly and it's going to be a true crimes type of film or whatever. You know detective work. You know detective work at its finest, international space detective work, right. And they're going to be like, hey, he's going to be the rough old season one. You know, just smoking cigarettes all the time, Just like, oh, you don't know about this young one.
Speaker 1:And then John Stewart, you know the green Lantern.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you know what that's funny I never used that expression before Like he's still green. I never used that expression before, but using it there for Green Lantern yeah, he's supposed to be the newbie and stuff, you know, just taking the ropes from him, and I'm guessing John Stewart most likely ended up being the main Green Lantern, you know, and stuff like that. So he passed up on it. And then I also heard Matthew McConaughey as well, which is funny because Matthew McConaughey was the fucking original Green. No, he was in the true detective anyway. And then I think it's supposed to be like, you know, it's just supposed to be like inspired by him, it's like mixed, mixed in. Yeah, I think it's. I think it's the best thing to do. It's just be like hey, you know, like this successful project, this successful project, this is social project. I just want to combine all these projects together and alexam, a billion dollars. And then I think this one is an hbo show. So, yeah, it's going to be a show.
Speaker 1:Playing it safe.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean, it's a show, so it's like where else are you going to put it? Oh, okay, yeah, this one is an early production. I believe I can't remember the steps anymore, production, development or whatever. I can't remember the steps anymore.
Speaker 1:There are no steps bro.
Speaker 2:It's just about getting something to screen.
Speaker 1:There are no steps, bro. It's just about getting something to screen. Yeah, because you always got them rewrites too.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, oh, and then remind me as well the creator of, or a producer of, the Sandman, and also American Gods, the Dead Boy Detectives, the one about the angel and the devil thingy, angels and Demons I can't remember the name, neil Gaiman. He's been accused by a lot of girls for sexual essaying and stuff like that or whatever. I remember I read a couple of articles and yeah, it just doesn't look good or whatever. I don't know the full details into it and stuff, but yeah, it's right at the time. Right now, it's just like and stuff, but yeah, at the time, right now, a lot of his crap is being put in hold right now and I'm just like shit. What about the Sandman? The Sandman was supposed to be coming out pretty soon.
Speaker 1:Wait, is that the guy who played Sandman? No, no, no, it was the creator.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he wrote the original Sandman comics and he's very involved in the process of the show, and so I'm just like god, please, please, just let the show come out.
Speaker 1:Just one more season, please was it set up to have another season?
Speaker 2:multiple yeah, multiple, yeah it's just a long because it was a whole comic run. So it's just like there's a lot of material they can't get into, you know okay so I'm just hoping that they get the chance to.
Speaker 1:But um, well, recently, anybody that's been associated with anything like that, it just hasn't looked good for them.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so either I just hope that whatever Neil Gaiman has coming to him comes to him Either fucking if he is a piece of shit, he's a piece of shit and he deserves to be treated like a piece of shit and if he's innocent, let the man be innocent.
Speaker 1:I don't know. Either way, get piece of shit, and if he's innocent, let the man be innocent. I don't know either way.
Speaker 2:Either way, yeah, regardless though sandman's already been done, just let it come out now. That's. I don't think I care about. They're gonna even have thor in that bad boy. Uh, like actual thor. Uh, yeah, chris, haven ford really no, oh uh, but the the mythological thing there's like mythological things. I think Loki's going to be in it as well.
Speaker 1:Oh, that's right, that's right. It's not even I'm tripping, it's not Marvel yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so there's that, and then, yeah, and then there's like other production. Like at Disney they're doing production of one show, one of his works. Oh, he'll also make a Caroline as well.
Speaker 1:Caroline, yeah, a Coraline.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:The one with the little weird like.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that little claymation or the little animation one. It was kind of creepy to me when I watched it before.
Speaker 2:I've never seen it. I saw a part of it, but then I just kind of walked out. I got bored. It was recently, like two weeks ago.
Speaker 1:The new one like two weeks ago. The new one, new one, yeah, wasn't?
Speaker 2:there a new one. No, there's even a 50th anniversary one.
Speaker 1:Ah, there you go.
Speaker 2:No, 15th anniversary, but yeah, there's that. I don't know anything. I just want Sandman 2, sandman Season 2 to come out and whatever Feed them to the dogs. Okay, now, speaking of other news, we have Denise. We know we have Denise, you know.
Speaker 2:He just talked about the next big project that he's working on is going to be Dune Messiah. It's going to come out 2026, three days ago, time of recording. Hopefully it'll be four days by the time of posting and the time you're listening to this, hopefully It'll be 100. Okay, at the time of posting he said 100. And no, fuck, oh, my goodness. Okay, denise, you know what are we talking about. Okay, denise, fenil posting 100, no, 830 days until Dune Messiah. So it's going to come out 2028, right, and he talks about that.
Speaker 2:This is not a trilogy and it makes sense. The first two movies were just based off of the first book. And then Doom Messiah is going to be Doom Messiah, just of that book, right. And then he says I think I'm going to be done with the series and stuff, but I don't want to say it's a trilogy, because I still want to leave this open For other directors to take over, so that they can go along with this and so that they can go along with this. And Shit, I broke my pen. Oh, fuck, broke that. So that I actually think that's pretty cool, because it's like he's going to make Doom Messiah right. Thank you, he's going to make Doom Messiah, right. So then after that, then someone else can take over for Children of Dune, and then we got the big boy, we got God, emperor of dune, and then we got the big boy, we got god emperor yeah and then that's the big one, huh leto atreides too.
Speaker 2:That's the only one I care the most about. I really did like the second one and stuff, and I would just wonder no, I'm sorry, children are doing so. I wonder how that will play out as well. But yeah, super excited and this should have a fresh new like comparative, uh, the dune movies, because, um, the planets are and get terraformed and stuff like that, so there's gonna be more planets and stuff around. It's not as rhyme. And then they're not, yes, and then they're not as like, hey, we're fucking eating dirt.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they're not like that as much oh, and then the citadel that they create. It's huge, it's massive. You know how big balling he is. He goes to another plans, you know, because they're conquerors. You know they murder, they fucking sterilize hundreds of planets. Right, billions of people died, I think 63 billion the holy war.
Speaker 2:Yeah, shout out, holy wars, he goes. So he was like damn, you know what's nice he'll come like to earth, right, damn, you know what's nice, he'll come to earth, right, damn, you know what's nice? That Eiffel Tower right there, ship it over. And he'll ship it over and have it placed into his citadel. He has entire buildings in his citadel. It's, it's completely large, how big his citadel is. It's huge, it's massive.
Speaker 1:And the Statue of Liberty is pretty cool, just take the hook.
Speaker 2:Yeah, no, that's actually kind of small. Actually, 10 times by the size it's supposed to be like a huge, massive thing.
Speaker 1:Washington Monument no the.
Speaker 2:Washington Monument. I was going to say the Washington Monument. The Mount Rushmore, mount Rushmore.
Speaker 1:Yeah, there you go, mount Rushmore.
Speaker 2:Yeah, uh, what is that? Mount Rushmore? Yeah, there you go. Mount Rushmore, yeah, take it all, you know, just have a little corner in the bag that says USA, yeah. And so that's going to be a very interesting thing to do. And I like it too because there's like, fucking, he has a crown, like with fish on it, or some shit like that, and I was like, oh, fish is actually like to them. That's actually the ultimate sign of wealth to people like from arrakis, because you don't have bodies of water, right for one thing, you don't have you. They never been submerged like in a bath, right, that's not a thing. But now imagine a bottomless pit of water and stuff that animals live in. That's like a concept that their minds can wrap around wait.
Speaker 1:So paul, just paul, did it with the stinky, stinky lady huh paul did it with the stinky lady that never showers.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah yeah, none of them shower hell yeah, oh yeah, that's the one thing that you can talk about in the book was um, I think, because in the books they have like, they have like airtight things and shit. You know, whenever they go inside the their little caves and shit that's I forgot what it's called and they lock the airtight seal. Like god, it fucking stinks in here, but I'm sure they're all, just like you know, desensitized students.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they'd be hitting it though.
Speaker 1:So yeah, I've seen how that amount of kids they had in there.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, I mean, what else are you going to do in the desert, right?
Speaker 2:I'm surprised they have it. Yeah, and I think it's funny, I guess we'll just eat these mushrooms all day, every day. Yeah, they have these spice orgies where all our minds connect. Even the kids are joining into those spice orgies. Weird, I don't know, I'm just saying I don't know why.
Speaker 2:Sorgi's weird, I don't know, I'm just saying I don't know. Oh hell, no, imagine this, for like little two atreides, he has all the memories of his parents, so, so, like he knows about the times his mom and dad smashed and shit like that, like their thoughts, how they, how they were and stuff like that. I was like shoot, oh, there's even a thing where, um, leto too, and then his sister, one of their like nine, they, they did a thing where they're like paul took care of, took over, and leto, because the inner paul took over leto and then the inner chami took under, uh, yami, or I'm messing up their names took over the daughter, and then the, they, they, they were like oh, look, wife, and then the wife was going kind of crazy and she was like no, I'm not giving control back to the daughter, it was a whole thing. Anyway, I digress, let's go back to the news. Weird.
Speaker 1:Weird.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it gets so much weirder. It gets so much weirder, okay, so much weirder, okay. And then, speaking of other things, we got also the first trailer for the Apprentice, starring Sebastian Stan as Donald Trump. It takes place in like the 80s and stuff like that.
Speaker 1:Why is it called the Apprentice?
Speaker 2:Oh, because in the movie he's an apprentice to this sociopath or this crazy man. Sorry, sorry, allegedly, I don't know, he's just crazy man. He was like hey, this is how you do business, you have to record everyone and you have to be crazy and you never. You deny everything and you only say you won everything. It's kind of like that. Uh, this seems cool in concept. Um, I'm gonna watch it. Sebastian stan is a very versatile character or person. He is also playing in another movie I forgot the name too.
Speaker 1:That's the guy who played winter Soldier right? Yes, that's correct.
Speaker 2:He also like um, he played Bobby. No, no, I was gonna say Bobby Lee, tommy Lee, the drummer from um Motley Crue, and then, uh, he's also playing like Elephant man as well. Okay, what the fuck did I put there oh and then we got the first teaser trailer to the Dexter original Sam. Teaser trailer to the Dexter original sim. Where's the young cat playing Dexter? Yay, it just came out.
Speaker 1:That Dexter.
Speaker 2:Yes, the same, dexter. It's just a young cat and don't forget, they're making a sequel to him.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I know, I just gave up on that show, you did.
Speaker 2:Why.
Speaker 1:Well, it kind of got boring. I mean, I guess I'll talk about it now where I left, where I left off, I mean, and it's still watching it, but where I left off, uh, she, his sister, had just found out that he's a killer. She literally saw him like killing the killing one of the guys no, I'm not blowing my sis, my big sis that was me.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it was big, he was trying to play it off just like that. But she is not trying to help him rehabilitate or whatever. I'm just like bro. Your dad literally tried to figure this out for him and that didn't work.
Speaker 2:Didn't he just help him, right?
Speaker 1:He just created a system? Yeah, because he couldn't stop him from doing it. You're not going to stop this man from doing it. Yeah, so you're not gonna stop this man from doing it.
Speaker 2:He's always when you just do a fucking murder rehab.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you gotta fiend for that. Yeah, exactly, you gotta kill him if you want to stop him, I guess. But but yeah, no, I got kind of bored of this show. Prison break's more interesting to me right now. I've been watching that.
Speaker 2:They're both the same exact thing, man, just both cheesy, very dramatic shit. Well, I live for drama, so no, hell no.
Speaker 1:But yeah, I didn't know they were going to make a new one.
Speaker 2:Prison Break no, dexter, yeah, dexter. They got the prequel and then they got another sequel, even though the last one was a sequel.
Speaker 1:New.
Speaker 2:Blood, yeah, New Blood. And then this one Wasn't the last one. New Blood, right. And then they got another one. I forgot what that one's called Resurrection Fucking Jason Wargay's in this one. Yeah, I have no idea on anything. I didn't bother with Dexter. Everyone seems like they've been watching a lot of Prison Break Because I guess he recently has been on Netflix. I've seen it enough as a child to where I'm just like I got my feel for it.
Speaker 1:I only saw it one time as a kid.
Speaker 2:Yeah, best time of your life.
Speaker 1:Uh-uh.
Speaker 2:No, no, okay, let me see if there's any other news that I got locked and loaded on this bad boy. Nah, okay, that's it for the news and stuff. Not a lot going on right now, or there probably was. I just didn't give a fuck about like there's happy to get more too, that started filming.
Speaker 1:I don't care for it um spider verse not being postponed whatever, I mean they never, because, oh no sorry, I mean it's, I mean it's unfortunate, you know, because I, I wanted to watch it next year and then now we gotta wait even two more years, but I mean I, I can at least get, I at least get it, you know, because they feel like it's not good enough yet to release and they just want to continue is that what happened?
Speaker 1:that's what they said. Yeah, they said that they want to continue working on it so they can uh release it in 2027, and I mean, if they feel like it's not good enough, then it probably isn't good enough.
Speaker 2:I heard something about they scrapped like 75% of it or something, I'm not sure, I don't know. And then there's like a lot of cram that they didn't even did for the first part and stuff. So it seemed like a little shit show going on over there.
Speaker 1:Yeah, well, I mean we'll see what happens now at this point, but I just hope it does not disappoint when it comes out, because there is obviously going to be a lot of expectation for it being the final movie of this trilogy.
Speaker 2:Yeah, there's also talks and stuff about the Spider-Man 4, about that being an early production right now. Spider-man 4? Tom Holland?
Speaker 1:Yes, sir, it's just reset the trilogy early production right now Spider-Man 4, tom Holland. Yes, sir, it's just reset the trilogy at that point now.
Speaker 2:It was a new trilogy. Yeah, yeah, I think that's the plan, and then, somewhere along the lines, they'll reintroduce Miles Morales into the universe.
Speaker 1:Yeah, well, we know that his uncle's in there Played by Donald Glover.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, but yeah, I think that's it for news, junsark. Besides Spurs, have you been watching anything?
Speaker 1:Besides Spurs. I haven't been watching anything besides Spurs. I want to say probably not. I don't think so, been a busy week for other stuff for me this past week. Yeah, being an adult going oh, you know what? I watched. I watched diary of a wimpy kid. I watched. I watched spider-man homecoming and I watched, uh, spider-man far from home and I watched, uh, the avengers age of Ultron, and I watched Civil.
Speaker 2:War Jesus man.
Speaker 1:It's because me and my brother we kind of just like would throw those movies on and kind of like fall asleep like halfway through. But re-watching these movies, bro, just like this shit is pretty good. Like I don't remember. I guess it's like seeing it again. It's like that's pretty good. I didn't like realize it was that solid. It's. I got it. It's pretty solid. They did a really good job.
Speaker 2:Kevin feige's a goat bro yeah, uh, john, uh, john watts, with those bad boys. And then there's josh whedon. Uh, you said civil war two, right, yeah, uh, those are the big bad boys, the, the bros bros, the bros russo brosies.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I just wish they would have man. I wish they would have just done something better with the hulk man ragnarok was really good, there's still time for the Hulk though? I fucking hope so, bro, because I mean the Bruce Banner, he's great, but the Hulk needed a little bit more of that.
Speaker 2:Also.
Speaker 1:I had completely forgotten that him and Black Widow had like a thing like in the beginning and they kind of like scrapped that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it was just one movie.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, it was only for Age of Ultron that they kind of had Like a little thing, and then that was it, mm-hmm.
Speaker 2:Nah, but but uh, spider-man, you know, ryan Reynolds Was married to Scarlett Johansson. He was Yep, but he's married to everybody. Nah, just married twice.
Speaker 1:Dang. Yeah, it's crazy, crazy world out there, man, that's crazy. But Uh, yeah, uh, jake Gyllenhaal's uh mysterio was really good too.
Speaker 2:That movie was really good I thought you're gonna go for the hatchery and watch no way home too I had to buy it or rent it.
Speaker 1:I don't have.
Speaker 2:Oh, it's not on disney, it's not, I don't know why oh, we were going to and I was even thinking about, like, renting it, but I was like man I mean, if you're gonna just fall asleep to him I thought it was on disney damn, that's tripping, that's not.
Speaker 1:I mean they got all those other movies. They got uh the new wakanda, on there, wakanda forever. And then, uh, wakanda, and toby and man and all those other new ones it's all on there, I guess, I guess, no, sony didn't want to hand over that last one. Yeah, yeah, I think it was.
Speaker 2:I feel like it was I don't know, because, well, at least the Tobe's and the Andrew's are there, though, yeah, I'm surprised. That's a lot of good work, though it's more than what I watched this week. This week, the only movie I've seen because I've been busy and shit is I saw him went to a, a uh surprise showing or non-screening screening of a movie what was it? Uh, my old ass. It's a, it's a comedy that's a funny name yeah. Yeah, it's a comedy. It's about this girl who's like 18.
Speaker 2:She's fucking banging girls left and right, you know she's a girl yeah, banging girls yeah, hey, no, it was like no, it was funny though, because she's like banging girls and stuff. And then she was like hey, whatever. And then, uh, her and her friends, they do mushrooms out in the woods, right, it's her birthday, 18, it's a young cat, right. And then, uh, she goes, she meets her, somehow her older self comes there, like time travels there and tries to give her advice and his, uh, audrey plaza, audrey plaza whatever, oh yeah and then giving her advice like, hey, do this, do that and never fucking talk to chad, don't talk to chad.
Speaker 2:And she immediately meets chad, they hit it off, they start banging and stuff. And then she was like, what did I do? Oh, yeah, there's also a thing, because it's like, um, she puts her phone number in, like the 18 year old self, like she puts her phone number so that you'd be calling, chatting with each other, and she's just giving advice. She was like, hey, don't be mean to your parents, fucking talk to your brothers, hang out with your brothers, kick it with them and shit like that, and don't fucking talk to chin. And then, um, she freaks out. And then, like it was weird because at the end the older self trying to tell was again and she was like, yeah, I had to eat like 10 pounds of weed to come back. And I was like, so how does this work? This time travel thing work, but it's not the, it's not the point of the movie. And then she was like, did you just fuck chad? And it's like so what? So what, whoa, so what, what if I did fuck chad? And and then she goes it's like why I'm just following the movie, why, why, what? What does chad do that's so bad? Like what does he do to his cheat on? Does he do this, does he do that? And I was like what does he do? And he's like I can't tell you what does he do, what I can't tell you, what does he do, I can't tell you he dies. Oh, sad, sad, sad. And chad comes up and he was like hey, I'm chad, here's your shirt. And then he hugs her and then you know it's emotional because her, she's seeing a younger version of the person that she loved and he died or whatever.
Speaker 2:Okay, I sidetracked off the plot. Okay, the point of the movie is a coming age kind of thing and self-reflection thing. Uh, being a 25 year old, asold as I am or maybe I'm not, who knows I can reflect because it's like I wonder what would I have told my 18-year-old self? First thing I would have told myself don't go to college. That's straight off the base, right, kind of thing and other advice things. And then just understanding at 18, you like invincible kind of thing and those kind of feelings. So it was pretty cute and it's a really funny movie. I would have never watched this movie because I'm not into comedies and stuff. I'm very anti-comedy yeah unless I'm forced to.
Speaker 2:In this case, I kind of was, because I just kind of rolled the dice on this bad boy. You had the beers already yeah, yeah, I went to. I went to on the Border right before, so I was already locked and loaded ready for some movies. Yeah, and it was a fun time, it was a hoot of a time. Oh, if you were okay yourself right now, 25 right now, but you're 26 next month, right?
Speaker 1:And then what advice would you give your 18-year- in your old soul, man, I would say just like bitcoin, not bitcoin. One of them, but not the first thing. I would just tell them don't go, don't go, don't join the military. I would say do that if you're gonna do it, go active straight out and then and I would tell them, get like a, because those warehouse jobs, bro, they pay a lot coming straight out of high school as long as you're 18. So I would have told my ass to go get a warehouse job.
Speaker 2:Yeah, take it out for a little bit. You would have been working there for a couple years. You haven't been five, six years now Fucking.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, chillin' Bread, making bread, that's. Yeah, no, my first thing was just don't go to college, yeah, don't waste your time there. You drop out like the same difference.
Speaker 2:It's the same difference. Yeah, no, mine is like. For me personally, it was like I dropped out like six times. No reason in the world. I had no business going to college whenever I was never serious about it, whatever. Uh, what else is there? Um, fucking, what are the movies?
Speaker 1:more. I would've told him Stay single for a little bit.
Speaker 2:Oh, I just said Just break up with your girlfriend. Yeah, that, that too.
Speaker 1:No.
Speaker 2:No, I mean 18. Oh no, I was still. I still ended, yeah, until I was like 21 or whatever. Yeah, I would just say just Besides that I think college is the only big thing. Everything else it worked. It worked itself out you know, and even college now worked itself out, you know, because it's like, have you ever thought like what you tell yourself before before? But then it just gets to the point those mistakes, errors, they're just like they happen, you know don't fucking, no, don't Fucking.
Speaker 2:I don't know I'm getting good advice. Would you be like, hey, spend more time with your family, or do you already spend a lot of time with your family? I feel like now I could still spend more time with my family. Mine, I would just be like, hey, you don't even spend any time with your family, spending even less time. No, I'm kidding, I'm kidding, I don't know. I'm just like just don't go to college. Your biggest regret in my life so far, five years from now.
Speaker 2:It shouldn't matter, but it was a super cute movie and stuff and um, oh, yeah, then takes place in canada and stuff and this whole thing, because it's like this. This and this whole thing, because it's like this. The setting of it is pretty cool. It's like a small town. They have a farm right, it's a cranberry farm, and they just kind of travel between the town because there's just rivers and stuff by little boats, you know like little single boats and stuff. They just be driving around on them, hoes, like as if that's like their former transportation Shit, and I was like that was pretty cool, and so they hook up on the boat too.
Speaker 1:As you do, as one does, yeah yeah, yeah, that don't have anything else.
Speaker 2:There's a couple of things coming out this week See no Evil, that one's coming out. I'm tired of seeing this trailer. I talk about it literally all the time because this trailer I hate it so much. On how often I see it. Personally, I go to movies four times minimum a week, right, and then just seeing this trailer every time I go to the theater. It just hurts my brain. You know, I'm just tired of seeing it. I think I I go to the theater. It just hurts my brain. You know, I'm just tired of seeing it.
Speaker 2:I think I might watch it today. We'll just have to see what time it is and stuff. It's always like, uh, I'll do a bit for it right now. It's always like, oh, you should come to the countryside. Oh, yeah, that sounds great. Oh, I'm a bloody doctor. What? When did I say I was a doctor? Of course I'm a doctor. And then it has the kid going. See what? Get the rhythm. It's one step, two step, three step, four step. I'm trying to do my British accent. It was coming off more Irish than me, no, but I have. I'm sure it's a good movie Because there's even it looks really good acting the actress in it it. I'm tired of seeing the fucking trailer.
Speaker 2:Oh, and I like the james mackleboy. He has a thing where he does this, like they come out the restroom and then they give a compliment. I was like, oh, you have such a lovely family. And he goes like oh, that is very lovely for you to say. And he smiles and he turns his head and it's like oh, creepy. It's like you just see like the screws and twisting in his head yeah, Fuck, god, damn, it Speak no language. Outside of me. There was also a it's a remake of a different language movie Came out like two, three years ago or something like that. I heard there's a big twisty in somewhere in there, like there's something like oh, maybe it's the son's tongue is in the basement or something I don't know yet. There's also the killer's game which is De Patista. Shout out De Patista. And then it's like action, comedy kind of thing.
Speaker 1:Yeah, the hitman who puts a hit on himself, yeah.
Speaker 2:Dumbest fucking thing in my life ever to to think of. I don't think that's it for the movies. I'm planning on watching them. I'll watch one today, hopefully, or whatever. We'll see how time prevails. Other than that, I think it's been one right. Thank you very much for joining us on this episode of the it's what we Do podcast. We're your hosts, as always.
