I've got a lot of grandbabies, like, a lot a lot, and when it comes to finding a gift for each other, you know, it could add up. But this year, while I was making my way through Walmart, I realized I don't have to spend a lot to get the gifts they'll love. And OPI mini-mani sets, I'm gonna do so much nail art. Haha, yeah, a Lego set, my own a wall of water bottle. Ooh, and that's just half of them. Shop great gifts there's sure to love for $25 and under at Walmart.

This is Jonathan, and we're going to be talking a bunch of geek stuff because it's Geekscape! Your favorite time of the week! That's right, we're talking movies, video games, comic books, and everything that's fit to print in the geek world. And we've been doing it for a long time now. I'm Jonathan Lennon, I'm joined by my co-host Kenny Craig, he's over there. I have the exact same level of energy as you two, Jonathan. And we've been doing this for a long time here at our home, T-Radio V. No, wait, we're not on T-Radio V anymore, now we're now on Z Hollywood! Goddamn, that's right, for those of you who listened to last week's show, that was our last show on T-Radio V. We've now been on the new Rebranded channel, Z Hollywood, which is here at Zenna Entertainment, the, I guess, the umbrella that is above the Z radio video. The Z radio Hollywood. Okay, now you just fucking everything out. No, I can do this, I can do this, I can go for it. Okay, so we were broadcasting on T-Radio V, which is funny because we did just start the show with a T-Radio V sound bite, but let's ignore that. So there's T-Radio V, we did a T-Radio V show for about a year. And then Mike Zenna, who runs the networks. Hey, I've got this new thing, Z Hollywood, it's going to be all Hollywood, celebrity, movie focused, I think you guys are great for it. So if you go to zHollywood.tv, you can watch the show live streaming, and you may be doing that right now, but, and now of course you can watch later episodes on it as well, because I know there are some geekscapes like Satorian stuff where like, I like watching the show. Well, you can do it right now at zHollywood.tv. That's basically it. Other than that, there's not going to be a whole lot of changes. I'm still going to say a bunch of stupid shit. We're going to be talking movies of the game's comic books. Kenny's still going to be hearing. We're always going to be joined by guest co-hosts, and this week is no different. We've got Brandon Stacey, they run a podcast called The Six Degrees of Feature Film. I was recently a guest on the show. It's going to be coming out on April 13th, my episode, but you should really go to that iTunes and listen to every episode, because it's just a damn good show. Hello, welcome to GeekScape. They're like, "We don't have to fucking match your energy, do we?" No, I mean, do you know me? I'm super mellow. So, it's going to go really well. Hey, guys, it's a contrast that creates entertainment. Yeah, it's all about here on GeekScape. So, listen, guys, you are new to the podcast game, old to the podcast game. All I know is I went to your house and we recorded a podcast. We talked about some movies that we can talk about. I mean, The Witch and you guys know the... What's the guy's name? Dave Eggers, the director of The Witch. It was like a Sundance phenomenon last year. It came out. It's a horror movie. We talked about, I think, a little bit on this show, but we really get into depth on it on The Six Degrees of Feature Film. We also talk about the way this movie or your podcast works, because not only do we talk about The Witch, we then splinter six degrees to other films. So, we talked about other films based on aspects of the main film that we're discussing. We take a feature film and then we show how six other films link up to that in some way, shape or form. Yeah, it's got to have some thematic connection. Oh, okay. It was fun. It was pretty fun. You know, I won't spoil the other films that we covered, but yeah, I will. These fucking girls may be watch fucking Teen Witch. Oh, Teen Witch is guy me. The truth is I watched Teen Witch wasn't wearing pants. Who watches movies with pants on? Actually, it's nice to hear that you went to the theater to watch it. Yup, they had a screening at the New Beverly. You know, like, "Hey, guys, pass the butter." True. I don't know what's going on. But how long have you guys been doing this podcast? We've been doing this podcast since October, but I've been podcasting since 2007. What got you in a podcasting? You were a veteran. You know, there's a show called The Film Vault, which has been around for a while. It was on the Adam Corolla network and then since has stemmed off. And before that was on free to HD 97-1 FM in Los Angeles. And basically the gentleman from there, Anderson Cowan, who is the engineer of Loveline, still is the engineer of Loveline, and Bald Brian, which is Brian Bishop, who works on the Adam Corolla podcast and has been with Adam Corolla since he started in broadcasting, basically came to me and we're like, "You have a website. I did at the time. That's fallen off." It was called Hitter Miss Movies. And for a long time, it was just Hitter Miss Movies. And then I was like, "I should just be Miss Movies because it's hit or Miss Movies." That play on where it's too good! Miss Movies is not married because every weekend there's a new movie. Yeah, but it's only when you stop watching the movies, then you could be Misses Movies. I just don't watch it anymore. We don't do that. What do you want for dinner? It's just really the most. To make it yourself. I'm not in the mood. So they came to me and we're like a female voice on our show. And so I said, "You really want me? My husband's a little bit more vocal. I think maybe you want him." There's a lot of dudes in this room. We need a female. Yeah, and so they're like, "No, we want a girl." They're like, "Alright, what am I going to do?" And I did this segment called Red Light Green Light for seven years. What would you do on the segment? The segment was basically I would bring them movies that are coming out, movies that are in production, and I would pitch it to them. Like say, here is the synopsis, here's the director, here is the cast. Now, will you please fund my film? I don't know if it was a hot project, I don't know if it was a hot project. I don't know if it was a hot project. I don't know if it was a hot project. I don't know if it was a hot project. I thought it was a hot project. I was like, "Oh, that's a hot project." I was like, "I'm not going to go home. I'm not going to go home." I was like, "I'm not going to go home." I was like, "I'm not going to go home." I was like, "I'm not going to go home." I was like, "I'm not going to go home." I was like, "I'm not going to go home." It was a hot script in Hollywood and this and that, but I thought room was phenomenal. I didn't know it existed beyond a book for that long. That's cool, though. That's cool. How did you meet Stacy? We met through Schmozano. Yeah. We used to partner with on Totoop. Oh, cool. There you go. Oh, my God. The six degrees are happening. Oh, wow. That's one thing. Guys, what's happening? Four years ago, that's one degree. Oh, my God. Years ago, that's one minute away. We were right before them. Guys, what's happening? What? Oh, that was fascinating. Anyway. I was their first female writer on the website and then I was like, "Hey, I can't do this anymore." And then Stacy jumped in. You don't want to write anymore? They started switching it to be more news on demand and I was doing more segment. Right. You wanted to write features about analysis and they were like, "No, whatever the hottest." They weren't news. And so I just couldn't keep up and I was like, "You know what? I think I need to just say, sorry. Keep up." You still have a passion for that stuff, writing analysis? Writing. It's been a long time. I like more commentary. Sure. That's a lot easier. It takes so much less work. It does. Green light red light. I'm done. And scenes. Yeah. Stacy, where did you come from? What's your origin story? I'm from Texas. I graduated from school and I have nothing to do with the film industry, really. But I moved out here for an internship and I was a fan of Shmo's Know of their podcast. And so I called into their live show one time. For the first time, I'm talking about Amazing Spider-Man 2, I think. Good movie. Just kidding. No, no, no, not at all. So I called them and they very rarely have females called into the show. And so I called them and then my email. I just sound like the schmoes at editor@gmail.com or whatever. They're a little like email at the bottom of the website. I was like. Hey, do you guys know if they're still hiring? Yeah, yeah. Can I call into the show? Okay. Maybe you can intern. I don't think they do that on website anymore. So then what happens? So I emailed them and I was like, "Thank you for letting me call into your show. I know I'm not a lot of women do, but thanks for letting me lend my female voice." And they were like, "Well, we actually have been looking for a female writer. Can you write?" And I was like, "I can try." And so I wrote them a sample piece and they were like, "We love it. You're our writer." She can't, but you know what? We're going to go with it. We need the quota. We need that female voice. Yeah. Text for it. Exactly. And so I was like, "Oh shit. I got to like figure out how to write." So I wrote for them for like, "No, it was really fun." That's like a video editor. You're like, "Hey, can you do this?" You're like, "Yes." And then you're like, "Google." That's very cool. How to do this. And later.com, teach me. Brother, I think that's life. Yes. You say, "Yeah, you take the job and figure it out later." Exactly. There's this fort going this electric outlet. I learned that lesson the hard way. Yeah. I did that for tongue. Oh, Jesus. I was a dumb baby. And adult. So how long did you write for them? I wrote for them for like a year and a half. And then when I was doing that, she followed me on Twitter. And then we started messaging him back and forth. And she was like, "Hey." Oh, demons. How things work, guys. It goes down in the DM. It goes down in the DM. As the kids say it. The DM, that's how Bran talks to me. It's like the DM. Finally I'm like, "Okay, what's your email?" Let's know more DMs. I'm just like text me, right? I'll check my email for it every four days. I know Snapchat. Oh, you're right. I don't know the Snapchat. I think Snapchat was a train that left the station long before I even got on it. Like I was like, "No, no, because I had that stigma." It had that stigma that it was just like for nitpicks. So I never got an account. What? It's not? What? I don't know how you're using it. Yeah. What is that? It's not just for nitpicks. Am I not doing that? Wrong. It is just for dick pics. I mean, I feel bad now. No one has sent me a dick pic. Am I doing something? No, I don't want one. What's your Snapchat? I'm a very good Googler. I don't see how that became a thing. It was like, let's take the most unattractive part of the mail. I mean, let's send it to somebody. Unless it's a fucking horror movie. Like, why would anybody want to see that? Maybe it's just the people whose penises are more attractive than their faces. They're like, "Look at my face. It's an upgrade." It's really, really bad. So at least take a look at my dick. You might be on to something. That's my problem with selfies. It's technically all a dick pic. I was definitely sent one once. I was like, "I don't think this is really you because I don't see your face." So I'm like, "I'm just going to see the Google." I mean, was there a relationship with the guy? I mean, was he interested in you? This was like someone that I talked to on Twitter and had an exchange with. I followed the Twitter. And then I was like, "Oh shit. This is it. That's the end of the line." It was just like that. You're like, "I don't think this is you. But just in case I am going to press the whole button and the power button at the same time." And then Google image searched that just in case. Wow. You know what? How do you know if it's their dick, though? Like, honestly. Unless they do a thing where they're like, "Right in here." And it's like, "This is my dick brand." And then hold it with a dick. Oh, like they do on Reddit? Oh, yeah. You're not like a red man with two dicks. And then you got to do bananas. You got to do banana for scale? Oh, my God. You got to do that, right? Yeah, you got to do banana for scale. Yeah, wait for the red ones, right? You know what I'm talking about? I'll red it when they... Dude, I would get a fucking plantain up in that bitch. Like, you know, I'm on Reddit when they say banana for scale. They put like a banana in the photo. Yeah. And then the date, right now, and hey, this is my Reddit thing. Like, I would do that. But I would take like a giant... I would take... You know what I do? I do have Mike and I. Yeah, just like banana. Yeah, but I'd be like... Banana for scale, baby. It looks charcoal. God, I'm living a lie. All right. Well, now I know your tricks and I'm gonna tell everyone. We got here. I think this may be the best juncture at which we pause for a station. We maybe reassess our life and come back and give you guys a better gigscape. And that just means that Brianna went to WannaCon this weekend and had an indecent proposal thrown at her. We'll tell you that story. We'll get right back here on gigscapes. So stay tuned. Love you. Bill Cosby! No. All right, we're back here on gigscape. And if you guys were watching it on zHollywood.tv, just on the new ZHollywood sizzle, I like it. It's got some elements that we shot for T-Ray movie, but they work perfectly in the sizzle 'cause you know what? The magic of green screen. And it's cool to be on the roster. You know why I like being on this roster? We like Snapchat. I like being on a roster with Eric Roberts. Dude, we gotta have Eric Roberts on the show to talk about... I think the first Expendables movie. Yeah. Yeah, I think that's what we're gonna talk about. Does he talk about that on a show? Do you guys know? Do you guys know Eric Roberts' show? No? Do you know what day his show is? Can we come in and sit in with Eric? Can you send us a dick back? Yeah. Hey Eric, let's see it. Wednesday. Wednesday. That's number four. I can't do that. Wednesday's comic book day. It's a very important day. It's a religious day for me. It's a council. It's a week. Yeah. Nootie Magazine Day. And do it. Really? Comic. Who watches Nootie Magazine Day? A Billy Madison sort of... She's like... No one. I know what? With the internet? Every day. Yeah, that's where I was going. There's still watches, naked boobs on paper. Um, so comic book fans this past weekend in L.A. we had a Wondercon. You know. And I attended. I think Breanne attended. I attended. It was cool. I liked having Wondercon in Los Angeles even if it was only for a year. They said they were moving back to Anaheim next year. Because I could just take the subway. They didn't have to deal with the downtown parking. Driving to Anaheim is a chore. Right. And I think this is our second year removed from having a booth because... I'm sorry. Geeks gave us. Some of you guys tweeted at me and were like, "Do you have a booth this year?" And it's just gotten too unwieldy to get to... It's too much. 'Cause then I'm absolutely dedicated to going to Wondercon and having to be there every single day and early by... I mean, I usually get there two, three hours early. Set up. One around. Make sure everything's there. It's usually 30 minutes to an hour early anyway. Surprise! We opened the doors and you're not prepared. And then you're staying late. It just took... Takes a chunk out of you. So, it was nice to go to Wondercon and be able to wander around. Meet people. I met a ton of great people. And I was there Friday Sunday and it was awesome. It was pretty casual. Unlike in southern neighbor. What's the difference of Wondercon? How would you explain to someone like me who's never been to it? Well, you've been to Comic Con, right? Right. But like, what's the difference of... I would... Even though it's all run by Comic Con International. Okay. Where we will have a booth. We'll be back at booth 3919 there this summer, Geekskapus. But scale in an enormous way. Comic Con you saw was... I mean, you can almost not... It's almost introvertible. Right. So, crowded. And this one seems like... It seems like Wondercon's definitely trying to become... Okay. A bigger heavyweight here in the Southern California Convention Circuit. And I think that's why they're not going back to the Moscone Center in San Francisco. There was rumors that they were going to go back to San Francisco where they had been up until about four years ago. But I don't think they're ever going to go back to San Francisco. I think Anaheim's are home because they can get the star treatment. They can get stars to Anaheim. But it was great. I mean, I heard that on Saturday when the big guns came out, that the Agents of Shield panel that was in a separate theater was huge. The Legends of Tomorrow panel was huge. And then on Saturday DC had their big event where they basically rolled out the talent and the creative teams for this new rebirth thing that's starting in May. Where it feels to me like a soft launch. You have close to similar teams that are already on the DC books now. So, I don't know. I mean, I'm going to try it. Obviously, I love comic books. It's, again, a holiday for me every weekend. Wednesday, I'm there. But I got to say, it did not seem as bold to move as I think a lot of us anticipated when we heard that DC was doing it. And I think a lot of that design is they don't want to shake the customers they have because they just launched the new 52 a few years ago, which was a very hard reboot of their universe. And I don't know. It seems a little messy, but I am excited to try it. A couple former Geekscape guests are on the talent roster. Oh, cool. And so, I'll give their books a shot. Nice. And one of them is nice. Nice and casual. Walking around, hanging out. No need to be chained to a booth. Pumping those teachers. Good, especially if anyone knows how stressed out you get the week before Comic Con. I mean, you really enjoy it. It's like planning a damn war. Yeah, exactly. Like having that multiple times a year for you. I mean, I don't want to have to deal with you in the week before. I think San Diego is worth it. Geek spring break is worth it. How often did you get stopped? And he like, "Hey, Jonathan. I love what you're doing." Only a few times. But a lot of it now is, I got to conventions for the networking stuff. And it's good to go to them and talk about directing and this and that. I actually met a couple showrunners and people this year. And I was like, "Okay. It's cool." As I kind of segue more so into that arena of my career. Trust me, Geekscape will always be here. And tonight, I'm going to leave the show and I have to go home and change our DNS entries because we've just moved to a different host system so that we can continue Geekscape. I've already paid for the next three years of Geekscape. So that's not going anywhere. I just have to start putting more of a focus on the directing work. And that's what allowed me to do at, at WonderCon. And I only really missed WonderCon on Saturday to attend another screenwriting conference. So I work every day and I love what I do. But in Geekscape, it's a big part of that. And I had a great time at WonderCon. I definitely recommend it. I recommend it even more as an attendee than San Diego. San Diego is like, you really just have to go to San Diego in the vicinity of San Diego and hang around to get the experience. Actually, going on the floor is. That's what I'm doing this year. Brutal. I will not be going inside the convention. It's doing hard. Just hanging out outside. If I didn't have a 10 by 10, if I didn't have a 10 by 10 safe area called the booth, I don't think I could do it. WonderCon's great. And I heard you had a great time at WonderCon. You were on Saturday. I was there on Saturday. I went by myself. I've been to a total of three conventions. This is kind of new to me. So I went to D23 in the summer. And then I went to Comic-Cousie in the fall. And that one I went by myself. And I realized I can do this by myself. Like I can actually go out. I was like, oh, I haven't tried that. It's a lot. And it can get intimidating when the first thing you walk into is the south hall of the convention center. And there's like 19 million dead pulls. I was like, oh, fuck, this is real. So this is my third convention. We're going to get you there. We're going to get you there. We tried to. We tried to get there. Because so I really wanted to go. I have a regular day job, but I was like, I'm taking off of work. We went online. We got my, you know, pass or whatever. And then we went to go get tickets and they were sold out. So I was like, yep. So super disappointing. And what did you see on Saturday that you saw the Screen Junkies panel? I did. I was the only one that I went to. Okay. Yeah. I was in that building earlier today. We recorded a giant one hour Batman versus Superman breakdown. Not to say Geekscape is. I'm not going to do it later this week with Ian Kerner, but you guys are going to get two hours worth of Batman versus Superman analysis for me this week, friends. But something happened later in the day, like you were having a great day. I saw this on Twitter. You were having a great day. Everything was wonderful. It was great. And then all of a sudden something went down. What can you tell me what happened? Yeah. So it was after the Screen Junkies panel. There was like a meet up going on. 8 p.m. 9 p.m. Yeah. 9.30. Almost 10. And the Kings gang just let out. Anyways, I went over to this hotel Lux for a meet up. I was with my friend Josh because I had met up with him and we had been walking through the whole day. And he works at Screen Junkies. I love Screen Junkies. So he was doing all that. They're great. So we went to this meet up and there was this gentleman that he was talking to, like this older gentleman. The Josh was talking to him. Yeah, that Josh was talking to him. I was just next to him. Right. That guy is just talking to him and eventually Josh says, "Oh, this is Fran." And the guy does not like say, "Oh, nice to meet you or anything like that." The first thing he says to me is, "You need to sleep with him." And I was like... You need to sleep with Josh. Yes. Well, I watch. Like, wait, what? It was obvious that it was platonic, right? I was just like... You're sitting there. Well, I married. That's what I said to him. Yeah. Like, I married. He was like, "Well, every marriage needs at least one extramarital affair." And I was like, "Hold on a second." Was he married? He was not. He was proposing himself. Yeah, thank you. Yeah, thank you. Oh, well, if you can't sleep with him. I guess I'm here. Mimi. I'm in the... You ever met... You ever met Greybush the pirate? I can introduce you. Nice. So then I was just like trying to be like, "No, every marriage doesn't," but then that was the whole thing was just him trying. That was the exchange? Yes. Wait, that... He continued. That narrative continued for at least like two more minutes. Why are you still standing there? I don't know. I was like, "Well, I gotta go." I guess that would respect for Josh. But Josh is the person... Poor Josh. He was like... Yeah. Josh brought you into this situation. He knew this guy well. I guess not that well. Not that well. Never would have started that conversation. Correct. How did he segue you out of that situation? Well, I was like, "Well, I'm gonna go." I took myself out of it. It was nice meeting you. Oh, and Josh stayed. No. I mean, Josh did too. Right. He's like, "I'm staying by me, another girl. I'll say the same thing." And this guy knew you guys from the screen junkies situation, was he a drunk guy man? He knew Josh. But he didn't know me. Obviously. I guess he didn't know me. Yeah. Like, I know this sounds like really, really creepy and I'm sure it was extremely creepy. But Stacy, you need to sleep with Kenny. Yeah. Like... I mean, I've won. I'm taken. Can we do that here? I mean, he's got a girlfriend. I mean, yeah, like every relationship needs a pair. Yeah. I've already done that one seven times. Guys, I know a better way... I don't know a better way to kick off our Z-Hollywood residency than perhaps... DME that dick pic. I don't know. I don't think you ever escape. I'll put the D in the DM. But I don't DM it to Snapchat. Our engineers are like, "We don't give a shit. We're gonna have to use those six seconds wisely." Yeah, but yeah, but like, it was creepy. But imagine, like, just listen. Look how altruistic that guy was being. He was being very altruistic. He was like... He saw the doctor with him. Nothing in it for him. And he's just like, "You should sleep with Josh." Like, "What a sweetheart. I'll be at very creepy." You know what? You're winning me over. You're winning me over. Brothers before... You have to give the whole way. Yeah, you're just looking at it from the other side. I don't know. Like, if I wasn't married, like, what? You're scared would that be too? No. Like, that would be weird too. If you weren't married, what would the answer be? I would be like, "No." Why? Why? 'Cause she's like, "Girl." I don't know. I mean, my relationship with him would be different, I guess. But I probably wouldn't even know him. Who knows? You know, that's going to be way too many. Who knows? That's way too many. You have to stay within the scenario. Yeah. Within the scenario? No. No, Josh. We need to have Josh on that. Sorry, Josh. I love you. You Josh. I'm like looking out for Josh's feelings. And you're like, "No!" And Josh is like, "You know what we're going to do? We're going to have Josh on the show, and we're going to have a co-pad tool. He's on our podcast this week. I like that. He's the guest on our podcast this week. Oh, yeah. Yeah. We talk rocky. We went to his house. We podcasted in his room. Yeah, there he comes. Oh, Josh, you're going to be our guest next week. Yeah. Fantastic. Do you guys have any way to, like, for listeners to contact you about, like, questions or anything? Like, Twitter? You guys have your Twitter. Yeah. I didn't know if you guys actually... or answered questions from, like, listeners. Oh, for sure. I'm getting the signal. We're very active on Twitter. Okay. I'm getting the magic signal here at ZHALI. What's happening? The pause for a station, Andy. Well, we'll get back. All right. We'll get through Twitter's. And then it'll just be Dick Pickett getting, like, all day, all night. Josh was right. What? Like, Twitter? I'm an idiot. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's illegal over Twitter. We'll find out when they go to your door. No, on the Instagram. Okay. Oh, got it. Let's find that down. Okay. No news on Instagram. I'm writing that down. If you're right back on Geekscape... All right. All right. All right. All right. We're back here on Geekscape. And we've been talking about traversing the dangers of the internet here with Stacy and Brianne from Six Degrees of Feature Film. I'm really sorry I ran the microphone over that here on the desk. It was like... But, Geekscape is... It's pretty cool. We're here. Yeah. Yeah. You can tweet both these ladies. I think Brianne is at Miss Movies. That's right. I'm on Miss Movies. And, Stacy Year's is Stacy O. Howard. S.O. Howard. S.O. 2012. Damn. I was close. There's a lot going on there. There's a lot going on. There's a lot going on. There's a lot going on. S.O. Howard 2012. Yeah. Totally. Same universe. Yeah. Stop S.O. Howard 2012. All right. We can do it. We can do it. No. Don't say that. No, no. That's so suggestive. They can ask them questions about movies and stuff. Yeah. We love talking about movies. There's also the block button, which is very useful. Dude, have you discovered the mute button? The mute button is great. Sorry. The mute button is the shit because you can see if somebody follows you back on Twitter. And, so, sometimes, diplomatically, you don't want to unfollow somebody. Yes. But, you just want them to shut the fuck up. Yeah. Yeah. I love that. So many of you. Yeah. Turnoff Retweets is my other favorite one. That's my go to button. Wait, what's that? Wait, what's that? Wait, what's that? Wait, what's that? Sometimes, someone, you follow Retweets. Oh, Retweets. Too many things. And then, you can go to their profile and turn off Retweets and you'll never see things that you follow. Oh, my God. It's my favorite. That's amazing. That's amazing. Because they'll be retweeting too many, like, political things. Yeah. Or just every single thing that they get, like, my grandma on Twitter, she's like, oh, what's the circle? I'm sorry. But, let's do that. Do you want to run her Twitter? Yes. She's very racist. Yeah. I make my grandma really racist on Twitter. It's hilarious. But then, I can just say the worst things in the world, they're like, oh, it's just my grandma. My mom spent all of Easter literally on Facebook tagging me in every Easter photo I ever had since I was a baby. Wow. Like, just was like, I found these. I'm reposting them. And I don't know if she, I guess you figured out a scanner, but she took every photo I ever took with an Easter bunny up until the age of, I think, 28. That's cool. And I just posted it, it was just like, I want it. Oh, do you remember? It's kind of adorable, though. Oh, no. That's cute. I just need to see that first one to know that that bunny didn't murder me. I want to see all four of them. I want to see all four of them. That's true. You went multiple times a year. Easter bunny. So wondercon. We talked about it. It's fun. The other big news this past weekend was obviously the arrival of the juggernaut I've been looking forward to, or not been looking forward to, Batman vs Superman, the dawn of justice. Geekskapus, there's going to be a one hour special with Ian Kerner coming down the pipe later on where I really get into the spoiler-rific nitty-gritty. And I did record a podcast this morning with our friend Matt Rob, Josh Openshire, and Flitz about, for their show, the unpopular kids about Batman vs Superman. And so you guys are definitely going to get more analysis from me on Batman vs Superman. But broad strokes. Did you see the movie? No. I didn't get the chance to see it. I was just kidding. I really wanted to. And what did you think, Stacey? I don't want to spoil too much. I don't want to spoil anything for the Geekskapus. If you've seen the movie Geekskapus, you may have been like, "What the fuck was that dream sequence?" And part of it, there's a really good article on the front page of the website right now that our own Jake Lopez wrote up that really tells you, you know how they're setting up the Justice League in this movie? It's awkward how they did it. There's a scene with The Flash and this article will explain to you what we think that means. And I think it's pretty close to what it was. And because a lot of people saw that scene, we're like, "What the hell?" Is that how The Flash and Aquaman are in it just in the dream sequence? No. There's an entire... Okay. If you just want my broad strokes, thoughts on the movie, I thought the first two thirds were a bit overcomplicated, they were novelistic in their intricacy for a plot that's basically the guy setting up Superman fighting Batman, whether or not Lex tricks them into doing that or not. Like, watch the movie. I think the movie is very much worth seeing. I thought the last third of it was awesome when ultimately the movie just came down to fist-flying. And that's really all we ever wanted for the Batman vs Superman movie was fist-flowing. It's like, how is Batman going to beat Superman? How's Batman going to beat Superman? Superman, how's Wonder Woman going to kick some ass? And then we all know from the trailer of Geekscapes that somewhere along the line doomsday kicks into the battle, so I thought that stuff was all a lot of fun and it was shot amazingly and it was high intensity, everything you wanted from those fights. And great. Everything leading up to that was a bit overcomplicated and I want to say joyless. I mean, Superman did not have a whole lot to do with this movie. It really is Batman investigating, investigating, investigating, investigating, index, planning and plotting and planning and plotting. And it times is tough to follow and not in an intelligence way, it's just like, okay, is this all going to add together? There's a lot of plot threads that don't all get satisfied and they're not satisfying as they're rolling out. And then in the middle of that you have the almost forced introduction of this Justice League stuff that literally grinds the movie, just puts the movie on pause every time it happens because the narrative slowly is slowly kicking in and then it's like, no, we're going to pause and actually introduce this stuff and it's like, I think my Marvel waits until after the credits. Yeah, I was going to say, wow, they just do like 15 minutes after the credits. Who cares? I know. I know. But I think that there may be an edict over there that's like we can't do anything in Marvel did it. And ultimately, I think this is all part of our language and it's okay. DC, we love you. We want you to succeed. I enjoyed a shit ton of this movie. But you got those critical reviews that weren't that nice. And ultimately, we just want to love you. So just I know everyone wanted to love this and I think simple is better on this one. I think when this movie was simple, it was awesome when the movie was over convoluted, it was tough. Absolutely. I mean, okay. So I saw this movie twice, right? So I saw it the first time I was like, I need to see it by myself. And then you saw it drunk. Yeah, I kind of wanted to see if I could enjoy this. You're like, this is bringing going to a convo convention, I can do this. With older gentlemen making proposals across the way. So I saw the first time by myself, like midnight, you know, Thursday night, I was like, I need to see it because I was going to, in the land of spoilers on Twitter, I knew that everything I knew was going to happen already. So I was like, I have to see it, brush out the gate. And then I saw it again with a friend of mine and I was like, I need a second analysis of this and I need to like see everything again and then took him with me. So, I mean, I was like, there are parts of this movie that are amazing, that I was in awe of. And then there are other parts where I was sitting there like, this is so uninteresting and lame. It's a troll. Yeah, it's a troll. And I was not rooting for it to fail. Like I wanted to succeed so bad, like you said, but I just don't know if they got the character arcs of Superman, right? I love what they did with Batman. Yes. I'm really excited for the solo Batman movie that apparently Ben Affleck is directing later. Well, that's the rumor. But how excited are you for one woman? I thought she rocked during what she possibly actually rocked for a female superhero stand alone film since Iron Man came out. She kicked some ass at the end of this movie and I can see it, but up to that point, she doesn't do much. But I didn't get to know her character because all of her character, the whole movie was her in pretty dresses at like galleries, and they didn't have anything. And Bruce was being like, "Yeah, like who is this woman?" And then she showed up and then Superman came and asked who she was. He was like, "I thought she was the same moment they were seeing the trailer." And then he doesn't question it. And I'm like, "Oh, why don't I just show up at the superhuman like you? Are you not like freaking out? That's why there's someone like me?" I don't understand how that happened. I was so confused. I was like, "What the fuck is that?" I guess we're fine with this. There are quite a few WTF moments in this movie and a lot of them do have to do with it. I think a carryover from Man of Steel is the kind of awkward definition of Superman. Ultimately, I think Superman, the last few, I think actually Brian Singer embraced Superman when he made Superman Returns, but put him in a storyline that just was not a lot of fun to watch at all. But I mean, it really, it really was too much on the Richard Donner original long past its due date, and with this movie, it feels like there's a hesitancy in with Man of Steel to really embrace the Boy Scout that Superman is, and this movie would have benefited more from that clear definition of character, where he is wholesome, he is a Boy Scout, he is Kansas and Coron Fett, and he is going to be the Boy Scout to Batman's shadow detective. And then putting those two characters juxtaposed against each other in this film would have really done some huge broad stroke stuff for the plot, because you would have known them as almost complete polar opposites. In this movie, the ill definition of Superman really does work against it, and we'll get into the new gritty later on the actual spoiler epic podcast, Geekskabus, but it's just sad to me because I don't think because it's 2016 and everything's supposed to be gritty and real. In a way, I feel like the notification of the DC Universe as much as it's helped it has also hurt it, because you have to make Superman tough and bad, and it's just not, it's okay for the sun to come out, it's okay for Superman to get a cat out of the tree, it's okay for Superman to be that wholesome, you know, sometimes naive guy, you know, but now he's Superman just sending dick pics all the time on the show, and after he's been in a first game. There is a scene like not even 10 minutes in the movie involving him and Lois where I'm like, kind of don't need this, and this is awkward, and you'll see Geekskabus, you'll know when you see it. What happens if we're in the tub together? Because what happens if Superman farts in the tub, Lois is in there, oh my gosh, once you've seen the, you know what Geekskabus, if you want these questions answered, just keep subscribed to this Geekskape feed because we're going to have a podcast that gets really into it later on. But for now we're going to pause for our last station identification mover come back with Brandon Stacey and wrap this whole thing up for you, so keep listening, love you, I do, Kenny doesn't, but I do, eh, I do too, I don't, can you guys just keep the music going a little bit? song though it's just one, two, three, four, clap your hands. Welcome to Kourtney Narrows. That's great. It's like the ten hour loops on YouTube like Nien Cat videos. It's like ah god damn it. Nine hours and thirty minutes. Come on. I can make it. You know? I listened to the ten hour loop of that more margarita song. Oh, it's great. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, Momo-al-garitas. It's like the Kevin Smith one. No, no, I haven't heard it, but I like the rendition. We don't really need to go over that. We can cut that part off. You know, we scapist. Uh, we jested about Stacy and Kenny, but you know what? I think Kenny's winning our growth personality. No, I don't. I don't. I don't. We're not touching hands. Oh, hand touch. Well, we just have the two married people over on this end are like, Oh, I remember that. I'm gonna have to call my girlfriend. Just be like, listen, I, um, something happened, something happened. Someone told me I had to have sex with someone and I'm like, how do I argue with her as a man? How do I resist this? I was in a rolling chair and she just kept pushing it. I have no choice there. She took advantage of a disabled man. I couldn't fight it. You know, my weak arms. Geeks gave us, if you want more of the Stacy Howard power, just follow her on Twitter. Listen to the six degrees of feature film podcast. That's not to say that married people can't party because you've been listening to my ass and I've been married for five years. Uh, and do you party? Yeah, I don't. I read comments. Right. But I party here on Geekscape. As you heard the music earlier, um, Bran is here too. And we got, you know, the single kids can't just have all their fun. All right. Um, the big announcements that came out of one are con. These are the ones I think we all care about. Right. We got a new Lego Batman trailer. Yeah. Guys, is this a little Batman? Is this Lego Batman movie like happening soon? We're already getting like little trailers for it. When is this damn thing coming out? I feel like not for a year. I know. But these trailers, they're hilarious. They're really cute. Are they really cute? Yeah. I was not here. It's like a tour of like the Wayne manner. I like the Batcave loves Lego Batman so much. Like what? We will turn on the Lego movie and he will make me fast forward till Lego Batman shows up and then we watch from there to the end. Wow. See, I never, I never liked Jobe's Batman. I get a joke. Oh, yeah. I never liked Joe's Batman in the movie. I mean, the character was all right. I didn't like him that much as it. I'm looking forward to this. Um, because it might actually end up being my favorite Batman movie. Here's the joke I made when the Lego Batman movie came out. I was like, Oh, the Lego movie had more minutes of Batman than Dark Knight Rises. And it's true. That's right. It's true. Break it out with a broken back for like two hours. Per minute, there was more Batman in the Lego movie than it was in Dark Knight Rises. Not a good sign. Not a good sign. Uh, the other big pieces of news was, uh, we talked about DC Comics for Rebirth. I'm definitely gonna give it a shot, uh, because it's a shot in the arm for that company, I guess. And then we'll see what they do with their characters. I hope it, I hope it's innovative and I hope it goes closer to the core of what those characters are because they're great characters. And I, I like many fans have not been totally satisfied with how they've been treated recently. Um, have you seen this Voltron Legendary Defender or whatever this Netflix series that's coming out in June? No, you don't have this Netflix binge thing. We all got over Daredevil season two. We saw that. Uh, I hope you geeks gave us enjoyed the E and current one hour podcast of Daredevil season two. You're welcome. Quit whining. You got it. Um, but this Voltron Legendary Defender is another one and it's all anime style and it's coming out in June. And it's a Voltron series on Netflix. It could be cool, man. Yeah. I'm looking forward to that. Uh, we finally saw our space in Preacher. This is the AMC Preacher that's going to land, uh, launch in May. It's like, you know, we watched AMC because we love Walking Dead. All right. On the last, uh, do you? I, I watch Walking Dead. Okay. Do I always watch Walking Dead? Do I always love Walking Dead? No. I always am engaged by Walking Dead for better or sometimes I'm like, wait a minute. You had to rank lost in Walking Dead. What season? Uh, yeah. Wait, what season? Wait, what season of Lost? Like season four of Walking Dead season six of Lost at the ending of Lost is like, uh, I see, I actually would rather that that season than like the two and a half seasons stretch like in the Walking Dead where nothing happened ever. Yeah. Like, I'd rather watch that last season of Lost over and over and over again. Yeah. No, uh, just overall. Let me tell you, the last two or three episodes of Walking Dead have been really strong. Uh, now that they're still going towards like Negan's camp and getting involved with this mode, like this really violent sect. Uh, that's kind of out there and they're organized, uh, unlike the not so organized, uh, people in Terminus. Yeah. We were cannibals and they just got their asses kicked. Uh, the Negan people are, they mean business and even when you think you've gone in and mowed them all down, which was a great episode three, episode two, three episodes ago, uh, you still have the one episode where, uh, Carol and Maggie got kidnapped. Yeah. And it was kind of a smaller episode because it was like in a room. It was just those two. It was those two and they're dealing with their captors and there's different issues going on. I thought that was a great episode. Well written, it turned out, but then you have something where there they are carrying a knife again, making bad decisions. And I'm like, no, it's the apocalypse. Like your four years into the apocalypse. You haven't learned, stop it with the knives. Stop it. Stop it with taking chances. No one should ever listen to Morgan. Okay. Morgan gets you killed. Let's just face it. Morgan gets you killed to do with the Bose staff who's like, no, yeah, it's like shut up. Yeah. You want to live? Life is precious. Every all life is precious. Like thanks Morgan. No, goodbye. Thank you. Goodbye. Thanks for playing dead. Yeah. Guys. But yes, preacher preacher. You guys know preacher because it's amazing. It's the start then. Steve Dylan series. We all love preacher. You geeks gave us a Fred preacher. And now we're going to get this AMC series and it's launching in May. And one of the most famous characters from preacher is the kid who botched the suicide attempt and now has a face that looks like an ass because he blew a hole in his head. What? Yeah, there's a character named R space who tried to shoot himself. Put it right. Like this. Where was it straight up? Yeah, shot him. And now the inside of his face, his face is the full butt crack as well. They call our space because it just looks like an asshole because his face is all implemented. And they finally over the weekend released a picture of him because the idea. I mean, everybody was like, how are they going to do our space? And they released a photo. It's awesome. It's up on the Geekshade website. And then that's basically all the news that I thought was fit to print on this weekend. But it was a pretty big weekend, man. Like I think Batman vs Superman really ruled the weekend and everybody was catching up on Daredevil. I really hope Daredevil was a spoiled friend of you guys because there were a couple of holy shit moments in Daredevil. And I kind of want to watch a couple of them. I want to watch that. What holy shit moments to be so specific. I don't want to spoil it. What were they, John? I'm just going to tell you the end of episode eight. I didn't see coming. Oh, yeah. When it came, I was so amazed. But I loved it. And then I want to rewatch that stairwell scene from that fight from episode three. Oh, the fight? Yeah, just see if there's any cuts. Well, there were tons of cuts and they didn't really do a good job of fighting the cut. Yeah, walked by and shit. They did like zoom. They did like zoom cuts. Like where they zoomed into like the black of somebody's back and then came out of it. And I was like, yeah. Then they were trying to redo that season one hallway scene. But the edits weren't nearly as seamless. No, I don't know if there were any edits in that first season one. There were two. Oh, was there? Yeah. How many times do you watch it? Well, I read that there were two. Okay. Can I spot them? Well, it was tough. But I watched that fight all the way a lot. Yeah. It was awesome. It was awesome. And this fight was impressive. Oh, you got to watch that either. I haven't seen it. I just got Netflix. Oh, I think it just started this year in Netflix. It's a brand new thing. You're right. And guess what? You get your whole doctor over here. Your kids are probably like that. He was bigger than the intro movie. Yeah, they probably will. He takes a holiday or something. Yeah. He takes a holiday. Dude, I got to see that. Yeah. It would came out the same day as their level. Same day. So, it was like watching you. Yeah. I love you guys. I'm talking honestly and you're talking couch, but sorry, Daredevil. Yeah. I want to see the P.E. thing. I keep forgetting it's there because obviously Daredevil took the limelight. No, man. That's actually a good plane they had though, because you watch all of Daredevil and you're like, damn, I need more. And then you're like, I need more. Oh, yeah. You need a little brightness. Yeah, he was like, after like episode six or that seven, you're like, you know what? I need one. I need that. Yeah. That's a lot of destruction. Yeah. Geekscape is if you are, you know, maybe you get like that with Geekscape. We're like, man, this is dark.
