What's going on, brand new Geekscape? If you've been with us all the many years that we've been doing Geekscape, you know what to expect? We're gonna be talking movies, video games, comic books, all that genre stuff. And if this is your new Geekscape, well, if you're new to us, go ahead and strap in. That's the stuff you can expect. Like every week, I'm joined by my co-host Kenny Craig. - Hello, Jonathan. - Who can also be featured on another show on the Geekscape Network, Geekscape Games, which is our video game podcast. So if you guys are really into video games, we may talk some video games today, but if you guys are really into video games, go check out-- - You hate comics and movies and TV and everything else in your life. - Go check that stuff out. You can listen to Kenny on Geekscape Games. - Everyone's in awe. - Shane and Josh, I've listened to half the episode. I think you did a pretty good job. - Oh, well, thank you. - It's cool when you and Josh are on there together 'cause you guys are informed. And then Shane says stuff. - Yeah. - But be informed too of the group and then, but Shane's the leader. He's like the blind leader. - Yeah, careful. You're not on the San Diego Comic-Con Room email where we're going around talking about when we're going down to San Diego Comic-Con. Geekscape is here at San Diego Comic-Con. We'll be at booth 3919 again this year. But we're putting him together like, "Hey, who owes what money for the hotel room?" - Ah. - Wasn't that last year. I don't know if it's been talked about on the show, probably. Shane, in the middle of the night, got up and slept walked and sleep walked? - Sub-walked? - Yeah, I don't know. - Sure. And he almost fucking peed on Josh. He just, he was like hung over, drunk or whatever, and he went over to the corner and he had to urinate. And he didn't go to the bathroom, which is, you know, it's a hotel, it's not far. And Josh was the odd man out and he slept on the floor. - Right. - And Shane was just like in his delirium going to pee on him. - And delirium, that's where Shane probably normally pees anyway. - Hey, Shane was conscious. - Yeah, he went and slept walked. - Oh, I'm sorry, I was sleeping walking. - About how we can fix that this year? One of the solutions was, "Well, maybe Shane just sits this year out." And I think Natalie, who's new to the room. Oh, God, I'm so sorry, Natalie. Our writer, Natalie, was like, "Well, you can also actually just go to the restroom and aim and actually be like a, you know, it's like, you know, I'm a girl. - Yeah, yeah, I, you know, I don't have the same parts, but maybe the solution is something that I can throw it on. And I said, "No, Shane's more likely to drink it than he is." - She's fucking successful. - So that's what's waiting for you. Geekscapes, if you listen to Geekscapes games. But if you're also a longtime Geekscapes, you know that we always have a guest. And our guest this week is Zach Ward. Zach is a longtime actor, director, producer here in Hollywood. And those of you guys who grew up in the same age that I did know him, 'cause every Christmas you saw Scott Farkis be the heck out of, what was his name, Mikey? - Ralphie, Ralphie on the Christmas tour. - Yeah, obviously, we're huge fans. - But you see that movie every year, right? And it's like, Ralphie, you're gonna shoot your eye out. And you just remember Scott Farkis, 'cause it's like every day on the walk to school, Scott Farkis be the hell out of Ralphie and, you know, one day in a little side note, it's not Scott, it's Scott. S-C-U-T. - S-C-U-T. - S-C-U-T, yeah, you know what, that's right. When I looked it up on your IMDb. - Gene Shepherd was actually Irish, and Scott is the old gala term for watery diarrhea from a cow. (laughing) - So if you call someone a scutt, it means you're calling them a shit. - That is awesome, but it's not even just like a full form, like rigid shit. It's like the watery, just like. - You've been right, explosion. - I did make, I did actually see that on the IMDb that it was S-C-U-T, Farkis. - And then I think my thinking was changed because I'm a big lesson Jake fan and they have that song, Scott Farkis takes it on a chin, where they misspell it. - Right. - And you know about that song. - No. - What? - No. - What are you talking about? - Was that a word you're playing with me? - No, I have no idea what you're talking about. - So Zach, there's a pretty big, like remember the late '90s when Scott was big? - Yeah. - There was a big band called Less Than Jake that's still pretty big. - Okay. - And they made a song called Scott Farkis takes it on the chin. - What? - Yeah. - What the fuck out of here, too? - Yeah, I'm not a music guy. - I'm gonna send you the song. It's one of their-- - Awesome, and I apologize to you, unless you Jake. I'm sorry. - Great song. - Guys, if Less Than Jake has a hit, I mean they have many hits. I'm a huge Less Than Jake fan. - I've never heard of it before. - And see, this is coming from people who really love like '90s punk and like Scott. - Dude, Less Than Jake has a song called Scott Farkis takes it on the chin. - And it's one of their best songs. - Wow. - And it's like, they're classic. It's like one of the ones that at the, you know, there's like a handful of songs that they have to play at every show. - Did I just become much cooler? - No. - Actually, no, I think I'm cooler than I didn't know about it. - Yeah, that's how cooler than I didn't know about it. - Holy shit. - The song is about-- - The song is about-- - I didn't even fucking know. - Kenny, the song is almost 20 years old 'cause I remember-- - That's crazy. - Wow. - Yeah, but the fact that you found out later makes it even cooler. - It does. - You know, that you had to not know first and then know later. - Holy crap. - Because "Hello Rock" view came out in '99. - Yeah. - And this song is almost 20 years. - That's crazy. - Wow. - Holy crap. - That's my favorite album by then, by the way. - "Hello Rock" view? - Which is weird because I'm only 20 years old. - That's insane. - I know. - It's actually a song about your birth. - That's right. - I'm kind of reeling right now that Zach didn't know that this like really awesome popular song was out there and it had the namesake of his famous character. Well, misspelled. In it. That's crazy. - That's awesome. - But, you know what? Zach's been busy. - Been working. - So please forgive him if you do another name. - Oh, I love all those guys. So, Zach is here 'cause he has a movie out. If you guys are on iTunes or VOD, there's a movie that not only is he in, not only did I think he wrote it, dude directed it. - What the fuck? - And you guys are all in the horror movies. You guys are always talking about horror movies. We even have a movie, you know, horror movie podcast in this movie is called "Restoration." And I didn't get a chance to see it 'cause I was gonna watch it last night and my wife was like, "I wanna watch it with you." And I'm like, "Well, then I can't watch it today because she's working." - Right, right. - And I got home and I'm like, "I wanna watch it." Last night I'm like, "Are we gonna do this?" And it just so happened the thunder took the warriors to the limit, but, you know what, I don't know. - You watch Sports Ball? - You watch the Sports Ball. - What? - But guys, you can guys can watch this movie right now. It's on iTunes and it's on VOD. It's called "Restoration." And it's a creepy house movie. - Yeah, yeah, it's a creepy house movie. So I'm gonna try and tell you about it without giving anything away. - Well, it's not spoiler for the audience anyway. - You can spoil it. - Yeah, it might do. - But, yeah, there's a poster of it. - There it is. That's very cool. - Home Sweet Hell. And actually-- - Which I think is how my wife describes it when she walks in the room. When she walks in the door and sees me on the couch. - Yeah. - And I'm like, "It's just like home sweet." - What'd you do all day? And I'm like, "If I even started to explain home sweet Hell." - It's time to explain how many of you those I played with today? - No comment. Sweetie isn't the best if I tell you not what I, like don't tell you what I do today. But tell me about the origin of the movie 'cause you wrote it. - Yeah. Tell 'em the rest of 'em and I wrote it together. So I went and saw a really shitty movie last year. - What was it? Are we naming names? - What? Name names. I won't do that. - And the guy, I came up to the director afterwards. - He's like, bird band. - No, he's a person I knew who directed it. And I went up as a Canadian 'cause I'm from Toronto. I was like, "Hey, congratulations on the film." And it was not fucking good. - I think we talked about that last week when we were like, "Great soundtrack." - That's a very good first soundtrack. - We talked about the awkward situation of, so what did you think? - Yeah. And so I walked up and I told him, "Congratulations." And he said, "Well, you know, we only had 350,000 in 22 days." And I've already produced a movie that we did for 380, and we shot in 22 days, and that's 2010. And that was the movie with different stuff, $30,000. - What was that movie? That was "Don't Blank." - "Don't Blank Hand." - "Don't Blank Hand." - But the thing is like, your money doesn't decide where you put your camera. - Oh my God. - It doesn't decide how you write your script. It doesn't decide the way you edit. It doesn't decide your color correction. It really fucking doesn't. So when someone's like, "Oh, I only had this. "My, like, the steam kid on my ear." - The gauntlet fucking came down. - I got in a car and I was like, "Fuck this." - "I'm making this movie." - "I'm making this other movie." 'Cause I was working another script that I was getting too precious with. - Sure. - So James had worked with the distributor and he wanted to work with him again. We called him, this guy up, and he said, "So what do you want to make?" And I said, "No, what do you want "to sell?" - Right. - And he's like, "Okay, "hundred house films with little ghost girls." - He could change the honor movie. - I said, "Okay." So we came up with 10 concepts. He picked four of the 10. We picked two of the four. And then over Christmas, I was like, "All right, baby, I gotta go." I spent a week in a studio. - Sure. - We banged up the first script in five days. And then the second one we did in seven. - Okay. - And there's a lot of, there's like two weeks of sleep in between. And then, so James then focused on Bethany, and I focused on restoration. So I polished the script of restoration. He polished Bethany. Then we already had money set up. - Okay. - For another project, then I hadn't finished writing. I then used that money to make two movies back to back. - Wow. So Bethany got shot. - Oh, yeah? - You guys shot restoration and Bethany back to back. And Bethany is coming out later on. - September, I'm sure. - Yeah, with that talk. - Wow, yeah. And it's like, dude, we shot him in 14 days. - For a total budget of-- - I'm not telling you that. - Okay, but, yeah, well, but the, but you guys shot both movies in 14 days? - Yeah, I know, both movies in 20 days. - Oh, got it. - 31 days, 'cause it was 31 days. - 31 days, yeah, on and between. - It's also what's in sales, like fuck no. - It's still in sale. - With how many crews? - Yeah, no, that is insane. - Here's the reason why I'm not mentioning the budget. - No, 'cause there's still sale, there's foreign maybe. - No, no, there's not this. - Yeah, there's that, but there's also this. Like, if you do paranormal activity for, you're like, I made that $12,500. - Yeah, right. - If you make it for $500,000,000, it's selling point. But anywhere in between, people go, I don't know. And it doesn't help but you're sick. - I don't have a context for that. - Yeah, yeah. - So, but no, 14 days for one, three days down, 14 days for the next. It was a fucking grind. - How, no, 14 days of puking blood afterwards? Or like, what, 14 days? - It wasn't coming at that end. - Like, three weeks of hating life, like-- - Oh no, it was-- - Sounds brutal. - It was brutal, and then there was months of post. - Right. - So, you know, film's getting great reviews, and my favorite review to date is this one. Zach Ward is a hot ginger who should better spend his time taking off his clothes to distract from the fact that he has absolutely no acting talent whatsoever. - Holy shit. - Oh my God. - Yeah. - And when you read the, what the-- - Wait, what? - I got a boner. - Yeah, I was like-- - Where you was a fat dude in a basement somewhere saying, "Mom, leave me alone, I'm trolling." - That is like, when "Dock of the Dead" came out, and like, I was like, "I'm going to read." I guess the Netflix reviews, or the iTunes reviews, or something I read the Netflix reviews, and it was like, needs more of that Ray Romano-looking guy. I was like, I was like, "Sweetie, I know you wrote that." It's like, "Dent, it was gonna chase me." Needs more of that Ray Romano-looking guy. - But it's getting-- - Is ginger derogatory, is it, you find-- - It is. - And that's our word you people are-- - It's our word. - Oh shit. - You people. - I was cooking. - Are you some of it? - Yeah, in the kitchen. - Yeah, kitchen. - But no, it's been getting really good reviews, and my mom's in it as well. She plays, I don't want to give it away. - No, no. - And my mom's just turned 80. - Wow. - Yeah, she's amazing. She's amazing. - That's really cool. - Has she been anything else before? - Yeah, she's been an actress since she was 24 years old. She's kind of a big deal in Canada. She was considered Canada's Carol Burnett in the '60s. - Oh, wow. - It was like, it might come up in some of your retro nights, Kenny, that you-- - Maybe. I mean, that's the thing is about, I'm from Canada, and we have like a whole country and culture that Americans are like, so how many dogs pull your sled? - Yeah. - Yeah. - Wait, you guys have your own film industry? - You guys have-- - You guys have what? - You guys have roads? - Yeah. - Yeah, they're called ice roads. - Yeah, and there's only trucks. - And when I-- - When I moved to Long Island, New York, and you do that thing when you stand in front of the rest of the class, and the teacher's like, "Ask that whatever you want." And that's just humiliating. And one of the kids was like, "How many dogs you got?" Like, I have a-- - I believe in, I have to have 12, otherwise the-- - No, but I was confused. Like, I have a miniature poodle. - Shit. - Named Tinkerbell. He's like, "How does it pull your sled?" - Yeah. - And I was like, "Are you fucking with me?" - No. - Yeah. - Well, Kenny, when you moved to South Central, wasn't that the same question they asked you? - How many dogs do I have? - How many dogs do I have? - I'm like, where-- - How much money you made off of? - I'm a solo. - Alright. - Call me Pit. - We're gonna take a quick spot break when we come back. We're gonna talk to Zach a little bit more about restoration, and many other things, 'cause I think Kenny finally Doom actually downloaded, right? Like all 90 games. - 45 gigs for stupid Doom. - Did you get a chance to play it? - Yup. - Oh, maybe we'll talk about that too. Geekscapes will be right back hanging with us. (upbeat music) Alright, Geekscapes are back here on Geekscave. Zach Ward, his movie restoration is currently up on iTunes, or VOD. He's just directing me, and Hulu. It's coming out on Amazon next month. - Ooh, and Kenny, you said you have it on, what was it? - Don't you just talk about? No, no, no, no. - Legal downloads? - No, stop it. - What was it called? - I do not, I do not, I do not torrent anything. - What was it called? It was called BitTorrent? - God. - Wow. - Do you mention it? - Do I just give me the-- - 12 bucks right now? - Yeah, sure. - I think his name, no one takes a cut out of it that way. - I think his name-- - Is that the lady? - He's gonna be re-crippled, Kenny. - Yeah, we're done with you. - Here's the stairs, yeah. - The entire thing with ekscape is I'm gonna invite Kenny on only to put him on blast in front of the people. He is ripped off, yeah. - This is your penance, no. Speaking of stairs, Zach, when I was like, it was just me and the wheelchair right at the bottom of the stairs, and I was like, "Hey Zach, how's it going?" I'm like, "I'm the other one of the co-hosts on the show." I'll see you out there. He's like, "You gonna take the stairs?" There's the most confusing look out there. - I was like, "You're taking stairs?" - You did that. - Okay, he was the one thing. We do love Z-Hollywood. We do love T-Radio. We have these folks up here, the engineers, obviously, but there's no elevator in this building. And the studio is on the second floor. The pulley system we'd originated for Kenny failed when it broke, and it-- - Zero point energy, I'm sorry about that. - They invented zero point energy. - Kenny, we're thinking about a balloon. - Ooh, like an up? - Or-- - Could it need to be crotchety, though, and just-- - Go down, go down, go down. - You damn Asian kids. - You know what geeks gave us? That's something that this show can do that none of the other shows on this network can do. Sorry, Eric Roberts, but we could actually use math and all the sciences that are disposable. 'Cause we're geeks. Kenny, if you-- - At least we have friends. - This is what I want you to do this week, okay? And geeks gave us, I want you all to take part. I want you to go home and measure the wheelchair, get yourself in it. I want you to give us a number. - That's 23 inches wide, I already know it. - Okay, 23 inches wide? - Yeah. - Okay, and I want the geeks gave us to devise some kind of feat of engineering to get you up to the second floor without you having to leave the wheelchair down there and walk the damn steps. - So the wheelchair is also 280 pounds just to get all the math out there. - The wheelchair is 280 pounds. - Yeah, I'm like 180. - You're 180, so. - But see, we need to know exacts, Kenny. - Kenny, we need to know exacts, 'cause if we don't know exacts, we could send you into the fucking sun. - Okay, I'm 178.38. - You end up like it's a Red Bull experiment, if that happens, you're in the lower atmosphere, okay? Like we can't send you into a flight zone or a flight path, we can't do that, so. - I'm thinking aerogels. - Aerogel, is there a bouncing or a catapult? Why don't you just put moon shoes on me and then just drop me from like a foot? Now probably get me up here. - That's, or what was the other one? Putter? No, it was. - Oh, Flubber? - Yeah, Flubber, geeks gave us, we implore you. Like, let's find a way to maybe get Kenny up the stairs without using the stairs. Like, how can we get him to the second floor? - But he does need the exercise, 'cause he's 180, should be like. - Yeah, I'm only like five ten and three quarters, yeah. - It's tough working. - It's tough working. - You've got a good six ounces of weight. - I know, it's, it's, I just need to eat that negative eight ounce steak. - A tapeworm can do that. - Yeah, a tapeworm can do that. - Yeah, a tapeworm can do that. - Yeah, a tapeworm can do that. - A tapeworm can do that. - Yeah, a tapeworm can do that. - A tapeworm can do that. - Yeah, a tapeworm can do that. - I just need to get a tapeworm again. - Okay. - I don't think I ever had one. No, that was a ringworm. You guys are the smart guys, so if you're listening to this, devise it, you could tweet it at us at either my Twitter, @JohntheLennon @cribbledkenny or @geekscave.net spelled out or leave it on our Facebook. Just let us know what your engineering designs are for getting Kenny to the second floor. Considering the thing is a net, what, 500 pounds? Half a ton? - Yeah, probably what, 420. - Let's go with 420, let me in. - Let's go with 420, yeah. - Yeah, get, I'm not, it's hard to get high. - 420 pounds, get Kenny Lit, that's your job for the week you escape us. And maybe if you guys have some good ideas, we'll read them on the show next week, so start posting them. I was talking about Mr. Ward coming on the show with our own Matt Kelly, who co-hosts the Horror Movie Night podcast, and he was like, "You gotta ask him about Freddy vs. Jason." - Okay. - If I can love Freddy vs. Jason, I really do. And he's like, "Did he wear the Freddy glove?" The Freddy glove, like that's the thing, it's like, "Dude, he may have actually worn the Freddy glove." - Yeah. - You wore the fucking Freddy glove. - Actually, I was taught by Robert England how to do the Freddy walk, and what's the guy's name, who was a choreographer for all that jazz? - Oh, I don't know. - Well, we were serious with Blakey. - Yeah, no, uh-- - I'll look it up in two seconds. - Okay, so, but so that was the whole key. Robert was teaching me the walk, teaching me how to do the voice, and I did do the voice, but they-- - Like a Frank Happer thing. - No, I know it's not a Happer, but like, it's there. - It's a whole fact that the-- - But like Michael Jackson had that thing? - He was a weird, shrumpy little guy. So the offset. - So Robert England is short. - No, no, no. The original choreographer, who did all that jazz, was a weird, shrumpy guy, sort of like Ben Stiller's father's, looks like an orangutan. - Yeah. - He had a weird torso. So he offset his body, and juxtaposed it in such a way to make it seem like you couldn't follow the lines as easily, so it made him look so more equivalent. So that's what Robert was teaching me how to do, and then how to do the conversation, the voice, I can't do it right now, is up late. But, and then there's like hours of putting on all the prosthetics for all the blood, spewing out when I cut my wrist. And then when I'm walking towards my little brother, and I'm outside the bathtub, one, I meet the entire crew, wearing nothing but a cocksock. And-- - For those of you who are not-- - Yeah, for those of you who are not-- - Well, it's care to just be naked. - And you, it's like what they do here, and it goes there, and you drop your junk in. - Yeah. - And then-- - It's like a little pouch, you drop your junk in, and then it's strapped around your head. - Yeah, and it's basically the frats, I'm pretty sure, for like another initiation, or whatever. - It's like I met the crew. - Yeah, and I met the crew. - And I met the cocksock. I was like, was this freshman year, what is it? - And I'm getting into a bathtub filled with blood, so it's basically a wet t-shirt contest on my junk. - Yeah, yeah. - Right, so I took a fraternity. - I drew a little face on it. - They were like, they were like, how many dogs do you have? - I knew people would have to glance down anyways, I wanted to make them laugh. - You drew a face on it, cool. - I drew a face on my cocksock, yeah. - 'Cause it's awkward, otherwise. And then the great thing is like I'm walking towards my brother, and I've got this arm prosthetic on, which is bubbling with pus, and blood, and blood pockets are coming out. - Is someone in control of that thing? - Hold on. - Okay. - And smoke is coming out. - Cool. - And I'm twisting it, and the glove's on, right? And behind me are four practical effects guys on their knees, blowing smoke, and pushing into these valves that are coming down in these tubes. So I've got four dudes with their head right at my ass. - Right there, right there. - And I'm trying to be terrified with this quadruple. - Oh, that's right, we all forgot. - That's a good thing. It's like a quadruple rusty trombone. - Yeah, exactly. - Yeah, with my bear, and then I was like pink for like two weeks, because of the red blood and that bathtub. - So whichever one of you son of a bitches wrote the thing about the ginger not knowing how to act thing, like you try putting them performance together, when these guys are blowing in the ass, and you got all that, okay? Like if there's any behind the scenes going on there, there wasn't a big word behind the scenes. - Was that running in the very big behind the scenes. - We need that behind the scenes footage to prove that Zach is-- - Or seeing it behind, I guess. - Maybe one of the best actors of our generation for putting that thing together. I mean, that's not easy. - No. - Like, I definitely want to pitch to Rod, in some weird homosexual way. Like, been like, "Yeah, okay, that thing was gone flying off my--" - Yeah. - Bob Fosse. - Bob Fosse. - Bob Fosse. - That's a clear one. - And so for all the other nerds out there, Robert England designed Freddy Krueger around Bob Fosse's movement. - I didn't know. - That's crazy. - And I love it. - Oh yeah. - He does do a lot of jazz scenes, when he's walking to the hallway, they backlight him in those, and he's like, "Hey, I love the humor of Freddy." And obviously, Jason is like the silent stoic killer, that you can't outrun. But I always had like-- - I hope it doesn't run. - It was like, I just remember that like, five or six year period of my life, where every Halloween, I would just alternate. I mean, either Freddy or Jason, or Freddy or Jason, or Freddy or Jason. And I think that was like every kid, and dude, you were in a movie with Freddy and Jason. - Yeah, it was pretty cool. - It's fucking awesome. And then a member of Destiny's Child, which is-- - Whatever. - You know, "Hey, we've got it, hey, you get it." The other thing is, I realized that we've actually interviewed Zach on Geeks Gave a long ago, as we were doing a junket for postal. - Oh my God. - Dude, and that's when I used to do the junkets, 'cause now when we got, that was before we had our Comic Con booth, 'cause now at Comic Con, I have to man the booth, and make sure, you know, I'm not gonna say I'm the face of Geeks Gave, Shane O'Hare's the face of Geeks Gave, but we now, like, now all the writers do the junkets, right? And it's fun. We had you talk about postal, which I think, again, on Geeks Gave games, you guys were talking about movie ball movies. - Yeah, we were talking about, yeah. - It's all fucking topical. And it's a perfect store that Zach is here. - We're kind of just shitting on the ball movies, but I haven't seen postal. - And Shane loves it. - And everyone's like, no. - But you have to see postal. Postal is like the one that you actually need to see. - That's the one that's pretty much your humor, is that, like, as a film. - Right. - I think that's the only one I have to say. - But can you play a lot of video games? You remember the humor of the game, right? - Do you remember the game? - I actually never played postal. Postal came out during, like, a hiatus of me not playing video games. - It came out 20 years ago. - Yeah, yeah. - Yeah, yeah. - Yeah, I was a hiatus of me being in the womb. - To age myself, to age myself, it came out and I was going into college. - Yeah. - And I remember playing it in my freshman dorm room. And it was the top down one, the old school one, and you're like lighting a fucking parade on fire when I blow it with a flamethrower and stuff. And the more body count that you rack up, the higher the body count that you rack up, you start hearing the fucking voices. And the inside of the, like, the screen starts to get this vignette of, like, crimson. - Really? - Like, the whole screen starts turning red and you just hear these voices talking to you in the background. They're telling you to kill, kill, kill, kill. - And it's really an awesome game because people are starting to just mayhem and everything. Postal 2 is more of an FPS. - Yeah. - I was into it. - Not so into it. - It's all a goof here, right? - It's all goofy, dude. - Yeah. - It was all a slaughterhouse. And then, obviously-- - We stick a gun up a cat's ass and use a cat as a-- - Silence her. - And then a cat. - Yeah. And dude, and also he was the first one who was like, I'm gonna do, I don't give a shit, I'm gonna do Muslims on a plane jokes. - I mean, that was a big, Oova Ball was like, we're gonna, and there was some scenes about that. - Yeah, because Muslims are not really well known for their sense of humor, right? - No, they love-- - When the Prophet is like drawn into a cartoon and stuff. - Good fan. - Oova Ball is right for the, you know, you'll see. Watch the movie, Kenny. Report back next week. And we'll also have the geese havers report back and see if they can get you on the second floor. - Okay. - So you guys all have one more. - See, all they have to do is just come here and carry me out. - That's exactly true. - That's right. - That's gonna be their entire-- - That's the easiest thing. - The cards got together. - We figured out. - We figured out how we got it, yeah. - Well, it's faster to get you out. - Just put a slip and slide and crack it out of a mile. - Oh, God. Geese gave us, you all have homework. When we get back, maybe we'll get Zach some homework, but on top of that, you guys should check out Restoration. We'll talk a little bit more about it. When we come back, we're gonna take one more spot break here on Geese Cape. I think one more. - Two more. - Can we get to see the boobs again? - Cool. Maybe we'll see some boobs. - Boobs. (upbeat music) - All right, Geese Cape is for back. Zach Ward's here. He's talking about his new movie Restoration. Again, it's available on demand. If you guys are sitting at home, watching some TV, you flip through those extra channels. I don't know. It's like on demand. - Oh, you go to the menu. - Oh, you go to the menu. - It's smart, so you're using your direct TV button, a remote control, go to the menu, go to smart search, punch, and restoration. There'll be two. One is Robert Downey, Jr. from-- - 91-- - Sounds horrible. - It takes periods on that. - Yeah, from 1700s France. - We're not that one. - No, it's not Elizabethan. It's like, yeah, it's French. And yeah, this one is the horror one. You're gonna wanna see the creepy house. And if in the first five minutes, you see Robert Downey, Jr. and not Zach Ward, you turn it off. - Turn that off. - Turn it off, okay? 'Cause there's geeks you've seen enough for Robert Downey, Jr. this week. 'Cause you all went to see Captain America and helped it cross $3,000,000,000. - $3,000,000,000. - It's kind of weird, yeah. I loved the movie, but you know, you've seen it. Go see another movie. Go see this Restoration movie. - Kenny, yes, you downloaded Doom finally. - Speaking of horror. - 45 gigs. - Yeah. - And how long did that take you? - I didn't, I haven't finished it yet. But-- - Wait, download? - Yeah, yeah, I only have gigabit internet, so it's still downloading. - Wow. - How big is this thing? - No, okay, so yeah, 45 gigs, I haven't. Which is, put it into perspective, which is just a little bit less than Grand Theft Auto 5 download. - And that's compressed, right? - Yeah, and then you have to extract the damn thing and install it. - Yeah, you need another 45 gigs to extract it. - This is a 90 gig chunk on your hard drive. - Yeah, but just for momentarily though. - And for, only if you preload it. - Okay, and then there's Doom. - Yeah, yeah, and you've been playing it. - You're not done with it. - It's, I was, okay, going into it, I was very worried. Like that is gonna suck because the last thing I remember is like Duke Nukem, the newer Duke Nukem that came out. - Yeah, that was crap. - It was so hyped. - Yeah, it was so hyped and it was so bad. - 15, 20 years and like those are already in the same genre. So it's hard not to think of that. And so like Doom came out and, oh no, they came out with a beta for the multiplayer. One of the most horrible reviewed betas of all time. - Because this current one. - Yeah, for the current Doom, everyone's like, sucks horrible, it's like a piece of shit. Halo and all this. So I was, okay, once again, I was like, I have, but the single player probably would be fine, you know? - Right. - So played the single player, fucking fantastic. - It's awesome, really? - So much fun. - It's one of the most fun like video games. - It's crazy when the boys, you get nervous when you come around corners. - It's super intense. It's not really like horror like that. It's just like running and gunning, killing motherfuckers, trying to get health back and not dying at the same time. - Okay. - If you live in hell, is it scary? - Well, I did have, yeah, I had two older sisters, so this is okay. - Okay, home sweet hell. - Yeah, home sweet hell for restoration. Bring it back. It's worth every single penny. I'm not even done, I don't even like, I don't even care if the rest of it sucks from the first nine hours that I've played of it. It's good. - People finish games in nine hours of this book, but I know you didn't hear completionists. - Yeah, and I also, yeah, and I stream it, and I'm the biggest procrastinator, and I'm talking to people. - One of our engineers, Drew, who's not here, I think he'd checked out your stream. Was that right, Justin? Like he was like, "Hey man, stuff was pretty funny." It's like, "Yup, Kenny's a funny dude." - Drew must've installed. - Looks like Kerpo Kenny on Twitch and follow the guy, 'cause every now and then he throws up every now and then, who am I kidding? All the damn time you play in those damn video games. - Yeah, only five days a week. - Don't worry, we're gonna get you this device, and you're gonna be able to go anywhere. - Yeah, then I'll be able to go upstairs. Bye Twitch, I'm never gonna be streaming video games again, because I'll be walking upstairs the rest of my life. - All right, you'll be able to go wherever you want. - Go to the Great Wall of China, here those are fantastic to walk. - We're gonna do that. (laughing) Just quick news, we're getting more X-Files. Okay, then just-- - Wait, are we? - Yeah, I'm getting this off the GeeksK website. Yeah, Fox has ordered more X-Files, 'cause this was successful. It's like six or eight episodes we just got. - Did you watch the X-Files? - No, was it good? - It was more like it. - Two, yes, it was okay. One episode was goofy as fuck, but it was so good. It was like really weird. - Tim Armstrong was in an episode from Rancin. - Oh yes, he was, I think the very second to last one, or the last one. - Okay, well I saw that. - Heading that up again. - Vincent Goggin was not, he's doing that better call soul. - Yeah, yeah, he wasn't on this, but it was okay, it was all right, a few episodes were really good. - But you want more. - The cliffhanger at the end was the most ridiculous cliffhoeing hanger of all time I have ever seen. - Not spoilable, not spoilable. - I'm not gonna spoil it, but I watched it and I was just like, wait a second. - So we'll find out, did that not record the rest of it? Like what the fuck? - Oh, really? I always said it like that. - You're like, damn it. - And then I downloaded this off a bit towards it. - Yeah, well why? I mean, there are already no commercials on this anyway. And so I had to like Google it, and then everyone was talking about the stupid fucking the cliffhanger, and I was like, okay, I'm fine. - Supergirl also ended their season with this cliffhanger and they were on CBS and then was that talk that CBS wasn't gonna continue it. They're not, but they're moving into CW, so we get to actually see the end of the cliffhanger. So I'm into it. I don't know how you make a three or four million dollar show for the budget they have on CW, but you know what? If anybody can figure it out, we've seen what Rolandi's been doing with Flash and Arrow and Legend of Tomorrow, so now they all share it. You think Supergirl's gonna get canceled? - Absolutely, that's just so bad. - No, don't do that, no. - There's been two good episodes. - There's a few good episodes. - No, you don't like it, you just got into the story and you're like me, you're watching every episode because even though you hate it. - I got into the story 'cause it's good. - No, it's not. - If it wasn't good, I wouldn't have gotten into the story. And I hope the God cryptos in that pod that was the cliffhanger. Like a pod opens and they look in the pod and there's like another pod from Krypton and I was like, if that's Krypton, I'm gonna be so happy. - Well, that's the only episode I haven't watched, so. - It was the end of the season after the big bad stuff that goes to be solved, it was solved, I'm not gonna tell you how to solve that, you go watch it, but just know that it ends up a cliffhanger where there's another pod from Krypton and we'll have to wait all summer to find out what was in it. - If they renew it. - They're gonna, it's on CW. - Yeah, but CW may have a, they'll have time. They have time to be like, you know what, just kidding, the show sucks. - Agent Carter did not survive, sorry, Geeks. That was the Marvel show and here's a good one. All you Geeks gave us are excited about it. Nintendo's making their original movies, they're partnering with fun to do it, but the first movie is gonna be out in two to three years. Do they have to start with Mario or do they think I'll start with Zelda or Metroid? - We know they're doing Centipede and they're doing Missile Command. - And then Tetris just got, did you see Tetris? Tetris got Greenlit today for $80 million, the beginning of a trilogy, a movie called Tetris. And I saw the Missile Command and Centipede one, you know who I think should make these, you know, Zach Warr's complaining right now, but if this thing restorations does well enough. - Yeah, yeah. - Sorry, you're playing the Centipede. - I'll direct it. - You're directing it, that's what I'm saying. If restoration does well enough Geeks gave us, he's gonna be doing Tetris. - You'll play the Z character that's in Tetris. - If that makes sense, yeah. - Everything falls into place. I'm trying to think of the tagline, I don't know, but it's in Russian. - Yeah, Tetris, give me a fucking four line now. Like where's the goddamn line? - I hate to bring this up every couple of episodes, but when I was playing in the Nintendo Championships back in the early 90s. - Oh, you played in that? That's so weird, I never heard that before. Damn, you can't, that was my biggest stress. It was being like, come on, four line. Come on, come on, four block line, let's go. I'm ready for you, and then you do. And it's like, for me, pre-sex Jonathan, that was about the closest I got, was dropping that thing into the slot. - So this was yesterday? - Two days ago, two days ago. And then yesterday the sex, it was not voluntary. Speaking of video games to film, it's got tons of news, I'm sorry. Assassin's Creed, you guys got that trailer. - Oh, the trailer was not bad at all. - It wasn't, but what do you guys think about this release date of pre-Christmas to it? December 21st, is that like, okay, we're gonna counter program the summer. We're gonna put enough space after Rogue One, and we're gonna try and not do the Deadpool February, March kind of window. We're gonna go against the Oscar contenders. - Right, we're gonna kind of program that. - That kind of makes sense. Plus, it's gonna be sales for the new Assassin's Creed. It'll probably come out right around Christmas. - Yeah, it's got a double layered promotion. - It will help, so I didn't really work for Ratchet and Clank, but I think the quality in movies is gonna be way different. - Did anybody see that? Like, it's just a thing, I guess. - Josh Jackson, Josh Jackson are one of our writers, like, wrote like 15 million articles on it, which I read 'cause I'm a big Ratchet and Clank fan, but ultimately, he said the game was great. Movie is a movie. - Great. - It had a great soundtrack. - The first song, "The Angry Birds" movie is coming. It looks funny, though. - That was it? - Yeah, I don't know. - Is that funny? - Is it funny? Birds can't hit the non-birds, I don't know. - Do birds do? - Do birds do? - I don't know, I'm seeing the X-Men, or I'm seeing- - Yeah, what's it called, a quat? - Something else. - Yeah, the thing that goes out there butt, but it's also, yeah. - Yeah, we know it 'cause in and out. - Wait, is that how they do that? - Yeah. - I don't know anything about bird sets. - Google a duck penis. - Actually, yeah, they have video of it. - It's ridiculous. - And it's an amazing video. - It's a slow motion, right? - Yeah, there's a slow motion. - There's a duck here, and the winner shoots out, and there's literally, it's in slow motion, like a bullet just being shot, or whatever, and there's a guy holding a fucking ruler. - Yeah. - See, that's like almost six a month. - Wait, a guy's holding a ruler up to a duck penis? - A duck penis is a larger dick than I do. - And some of the things had to happen for that to be a way. - You gotta get that video, 'cause who gets, who does that job? - There you go. - Watch your eyes. - I think it's the only one. - It's the only one. - Thanks, guys, from ready to shoot. - Yeah. - It's those X effect dudes who are like, you know what, I'm tired of blowing into accurate asses. - Right. - I'm not going to do the-- - I have no idea what to do. - I'm measuring duck decks now. - I'm an avian reproduction measure. - Yeah, you just enjoy that, and it does. It just shoots out, and-- - So the duck penis shoots out like a ninja's blade? - Yep. - Like it's like, and it also kind of unrolls. - Yeah. - You have to sit in time. - Yeah. - Like a party? - I think it's the original party popper. - Yeah. - And did you know the ducks are actually-- - What kind of movies are these for? - They will fuck dead ducks. - What? - Yeah. - Necrophiliacs? - Necrophiliacs, there's the big word I was like. - Necrophiliacs. Wait, why would they do that? - I don't know. I haven't asked a duck, but they recorded necrophiliacs, and every time a duck has sex, it's ripe. - Jesus Christ. - So they never have voluntary. - No. - They don't go into, okay, so the men go into heat, but the women are just raping everything. - They're just raping everything. - Really southern, there's no like-- (barking) - I'm never looking at all of the ducks. (laughing) - It's it. It's just-- (laughing) - Yeah. (laughing) - It's awesome. - Oh, jeez. I have never liked someone say, "Go fuck a duck." (laughing) - There's no fucking-- - The duck fucks you. - Go fuck a duck. - It already fucked you. (laughing) - Go reciprocate that right on that duck. (laughing) - Justin, please don't quit, we need you. (laughing) - I am so sorry, Geekscape is, let's take one last spot break here on Geekscape. And then we'll be back, right, Justin? We will be back. We probably shouldn't be back, but we're gonna be back, so don't turn this off. Thank you guys. (upbeat music) - Hey, Geekscape is on back. This is Jonathan, AKA Hispanic Jesus, which is just-- - I know, that just tastes good. Yeah, Hispanic Jesus. - AKA the real God-till of the lungs. - God, the greatest. - The greatest, AKA-- - The greatest. - AKA, fuck a duck, AKA-- - Yep. - Get ducked. - Dirty duck. - Dirty duck. - Dark green fucks. - We-- (laughing) - We just discovered some science shit here on Geekscape as we do. - What do we do? - We love science. We love biology. We love all that stuff. We made really good grades in school. Actually, I was not good at science in grade school at all. - We've learned not to take our pants off around ducks. - Or at least if you do, at least if you do, make sure they're very rigid in the back. - They're violent creatures, man. I'm glad Apes got opposable thumbs first, 'cause if ducks had opposable thumbs, we'd be somewhere there's a planet where the ducks became the-- - Yeah, I'm a species, species, and they're just-- - Raping everything. - It's just like a fucking duck bird. - Everyone is-- - Like a-- - Spandy. - I think I just wrote a new comic book. - Imagine a Scrooge McDuck but a rapey Scrooge McDuck. - Scrooge McDuck. - There's Duckburg. - That's where it is, it's Duck Tales. - There is a-- - Duck Tales is a dangerous duck bird. - It's a fucking-- - Duckburg is one of the most dangerous places ever. - Yeah. - You turned the wrong corner in Duckburg? - Where? - It's gonna cost you a lot. - Duckburg. - Yeah. - Sorry. - I had-- - Okay, well, whenever you need that Disney sponsorship, that's okay, they hate us. Now, Geeks gave us, if you learned one thing over the last few minutes that you've spent with us, it's that there's a movie, it's called Restoration. It's currently up on iTunes and on demand. Click that little button on your receiver on your remote control and go to the on demand menu and get this movie, it's called Restoration and Zack is in it. So Zack, listen, is this in the first movie you directed, is it? - It's first feature, yeah. - So you did short films and spec pilots, but this is the first feature. So I loved it, it was great, it was terrifying, it was very hard, and it was, I learned a lot. - What are some of the top lessons that you learned about this thing? - It's a stamina game, right? - It's a stamina game, and it's also compartmentalization. So if everything around you's on fire, but you have to get this one thing done, you just have to ignore everything. - Right. - So you're learning, focus like a duck. - Yeah, you know, getting your head in the right position to get your technical aspects done, know what your shots are gonna be prepped for your next one, meanwhile, turn around and get your actor seduced into that moment. - What if it's yourself, is the actor-- - Or what if it's your self? - Yeah, what is it like directing your needs? - Yeah. - Like I'm doing some kind of directing the scene. - Or I'm directing the scene, and then I'm in the scene. - Get up on that mic like a duck. - And I'm having to do, I'm having to say, induce stuff that's, it is what it is, and sometimes it's got varying levels of ark, and so the hardest thing is not, it's weird, 'cause also the Canadian me doesn't wanna be overly indulgent. - And you're trying to hit A to B to C to D, not only technically, but also internal wise. So you're doing like an external internal thing, and you're trying not to have them trip on each other. - Right, and you're also not wanting to seem too indulgent with your own behavior. You don't wanna be the, well I'm the director. - Right. - We just do five more takes. - Sure. - Because I want to be fabulous. So you know, you're like, yeah, I did one, that's good. - But who else had the movie? Do you think they would've been cool with it? - The AD wouldn't have been cool with it, but-- - No, but the-- - You think you're close to everything? - And that definitely is like, I'm the one gauging my own performance, so then I have to figure out if we need to go again, or if we need to move on. - Right. - And so yeah, it was weird. It was definitely, and one of my favorite ones is I'm doing this very intense scene, and one of my final lines is like, I have to talk about lung cancer that I have. And I say, you know, nobody lives forever. - Right. - And then I'm looking at the other actor, and then I'm, and cut. (laughing) - Right? - And then my boom woman is like, Zach, I think there's somebody here for you. I turn around, my dad has now walked into the fucking frame. - Oh, your dad's in film now too? - Yeah, yeah. - He walked on the frame. - I heard your old mom before. - Wasn't, we just ignored everybody. - No, no, he was helping out build something. He's standing at 15 feet behind me, and he's like, come here. - Like, you know. - He's actually a technician on the movie. Like, he needs a director to make a decision. - He needs to stay the fuck out of my frame. - Yeah, but he should actually-- - And then not talk to me like this. - Come together, young boy. - You should have Christian baled your own father. This is the perfect way to get your dicks back. - He should have in front of everybody. - You should have absolutely Christian baled your own father. - Yeah. - But actor, actor, director, writer. - You end up, yeah, exactly. And balancing out all those things at the same time and focusing on getting the movie finished and making it as good as possible. And I'm really fucking proud of it. - It's like, what? It's a haunted house that is being restored. - Yeah, it's true. - Emily O'Brien and Adrian Guyada. She plays Rebecca, Jordan, and he's Todd Jordan. - I love her doing this at the end of the show. - I know. - Yeah, they moved to a new town. - 'Cause you guys are gonna end the show and then go download this, that's why. - Okay. - They're gonna, they moved to a new town 'cause she's there to do her. She's a doctor and she's doing her internship. - Doctoral? - Yeah, with the residency. - Residency. - At the local hospital, they bought a new house and he's a GC, a general contractor, so he's gonna fix it up, use it as a template for what he can do, get more business. He's tearing down a wall and in the wall, he finds a diary. It's been there for 30 years. - You've never got an idea to read those things, folks. - And this is based on a true story. - You know what, don't write-- - And girlfriends. - And I think I told you this. My girlfriend's brother is a junk contractor in Seattle. They were tearing down a wall. He found a Ouija board. - Oh, get that? - No, no, no, I don't remember that. - That's done. - That's done, yeah. - Terrifying, right? - I would never believe in ghosts and shit, but if you find a Ouija board, you're like, I believe in a now-- - I believe in a now. - If that had been the reason-- - That would have been the topic of dinner. - Yeah. - Yeah. - That is fucking creepy. - How creepy is that? - I don't know. - You burn that shit and then you see that it's back. - Oh, God. - Like you can't destroy it. - Like the diary can't destroy it. So he found this thing and you were like, what if it was a diary? What if it had to be-- - I was gonna go with the Ouija board, but the problem was Ouija is coming out. And I would have been stepping on his dick and I didn't want to do that. - Sure. And I didn't want to get sued. So yeah, my girlfriend's going up to Seattle this weekend and she should pick up the Ouija board. - No, she should not. - Yeah, she should bring us to your house. - In the middle of the night. - Do you guys live together? - Yeah. - And you guys live near me, so maybe date night. My wife would be into it. I would be the guy who's like, no, thanks. - See you guys later, I'll be-- - I'm going out on pizza. - Hey guys, there's a basketball game on. It's August, Jonathan. Oh yeah, I like that, you're a peeing game. (laughing) - I love the Spanish basketball. - I love to watch the FIBA sports. - So that's what started the whole idea. And then so that's the move. - And you guys played the neighbors who were like, you don't want to go up there, that's a pet cemetery. - That's right. Yeah, you know the ground is sour, it's sour. (laughing) But basically you guys, you may have designs of your own or you guys are friendly neighbors. - Very friendly neighbors. - Okay, very friendly neighbors. - Get the onset. - Oh, one thing that's the thing I love about horror films is that it's, if you stick to the right rules that you create, then the audience follows along. - Yeah. - Harry Potter doesn't use a cell phone or a 38 revolver, although I think you could clear out all of-- - On television, shoot second. - Yeah, exactly. But I mean, you created it in a real world and you write it realistically enough so that it makes it, there are stakes. So you actually care. - You also need that personal moment at the beginning. You know, the Luke out on the farm looking up at the sky thing. It was like the moment I always say. If the prequels had ever had that moment, I think we'd be looking at the prequels in a different way, but we never really got a sense of who Anakin or everyone. - Right, at all. - It just kind of rested on the laurel of, well, you already know these characters. No, we don't know these characters at that juncture in their lives, or the eventually they're about to go out. - That's not even how I'm racing. - When you had the Anton Uncle get burned to death, if the new movie, if the Force Awakens had had that, just needs you for a second. - Yeah, I got you just, thanks. - If any had had those stakes, then I would have given a fuck. I hated that fucking movie. - We didn't have no balls. - Yeah, it felt like the resetting of a board. We've definitely talked about Force Awakens a lot. And so some of you guys like it. Some of you, you know, I like it, but some of you guys also agree with Zack, and we're like, wait, I definitely wanted to talk to him more from my new Star Wars. Like I wanted, no, the new Star Wars is right. And obviously like, let's hope now that the board has been reset with this new cast, with this new thing, let's see where they go. - Yeah, I'd love for them to go in some brave directly. - I think I figured it out though, and I think this is why he's gonna do it, is because, and I figured this out when I fell asleep, watching it for the second time on a plane. And I was like, no, that's what Disney wants. They want a safe thing. So you, the grown ass men who saw the first Star Wars, it wasn't designed to be a franchise, it was designed to be a great fucking movie, and it's a brilliant film, gorgeously shy. - But we need our safety blanket, right? - Yeah, that what Disney wants to do is like, hey mom and dad, you saw this movie, you love this movie, put little Jimmy in front of it. It's safe, it's a little game. - Yeah, the same thing you like. - It's gonna be fine. - Yeah, we didn't break it. - It's no violence, no one dies, and if you can put a five-year-old in front of that, then fall asleep, that person is going to be a client for the rest of their life. - Exactly, no spoilers, but somebody did die. Anyway. (laughing) - Did they, because falling down a tube in Star Wars World doesn't mean to die. (laughing) Sorry. - Yeah, he did die. - But we're still gonna find a way to make the young Han Solo adventures. - Someone's hanging on to something at the bottom. - Like sabers are so cauterizing, so let's get that clear. - It's just like, we don't know if he's human. I mean shit, Lando can have two days. - We make it a lot of assumptions. - Yeah, you're right. - Man, we're at it. - So then they bring Darth Maul back and that fucker got cut and half and he brought him back in the Clone Wars, I heard the cartoon. - Oh god. - That motherfucker also got cut and half and sent down a pipe. So Geeks gave us, listen, we could fucking have a two-hour episode with Zach, but you guys got to go watch Restoration. So click that button there on your computer for iTunes or watch it on your TV through On Demand, but you know where you're gonna find that. Zach, what is the best place to find you on Twitter? - Twitter is total Zach Ward. It's got a little verified check mark, so it's mean as some douche. And then Facebook is my name with a little check mark. Instagram, I don't have it. - Facebook is your name. - Kenny and I, it's crippled Kenny. I'm at Jonathan London 'cause we got it up on that shit early. And Geeks gave us, you know, remember to find us geekscaped.net, the Facebook, the Twitter, the Instagram and all that. We'll be at booth 3919 again in San Diego, Comic Con. And Josh will be at E3, I think with Matt Sanchez. So guys, we're gonna be at the conventions all summer. Look for us and we'll be here next week with just some of the rest of the folks here at radio V. - And you see Hollywood? - You enjoy your Ouija party. - Fuck that, we're not gonna be a Ouija party. - I'll be chasing you with the Ouija board while you cry. It won't take that much. - Mr. Scott Farkas, we'll see you guys next week. Thank you for joining us. Bye guys.
Most people remember Zack Ward as the bully Scut Farkus in the holiday classic 'A Christmas Story'. Or maybe you recognize him from his turn in movies like 'Freddy VS Jason' or 'Transformers'. Now get ready to know him as an awesome Geekscape guest because Zack arrives on the show in a big way to talk about his new film 'Restoration'!

Beyond talking about his project though, Zack joins us to break down the new 'Assassin's Creed' movie trailer, tell us about wearing the Freddy Krueger glove and making a video game inspired movie like 'Postal'! Oh, and Kenny has finally downloaded and gotten to play the massive 'DOOM' so he shares us some thoughts on that! PLUS... DUCKS! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
