So now we're going to be bringing you the latest news and reviews in the world of video games, movies, and comics. I'm joined this week by two of my mysterious compatriots from the world of Mexican wrestling. Introduce yourself, go ahead, guys. I am Baron Bon Bava. I am the man with the golden eye. And they're going to be talking all about their brand new book. Mondo Lucha Gogo, it's a wrestling book. It's about Mexican wrestling. And you wrote it? Yes, I did. You shot it? Because you got the golden eye. I shot it, I shot it. And that's coming up. So let me throw out the sponsor real quick. That's netriver.net. We're still running the contest for their brand new website. Go ahead and start shooting your ads. We've got two so far that are really pretty good. So take out your camera, get your animation skills, and shoot an ad for netriver.net. All you've got to include is that it's got fun and knowledgeable staff, best prices on dedicated servers of VPS, rock bottom prices on shared hosting, and $1.95 domain names when you get your shared hosting. I actually got a domain last week, and it was pretty easy. And here's the cool thing, so that they know that you're a geese-hape listener. You put in a promotion code GILMORE, and you get 10% off your order. So they've got amazing deals. It can get even better. I think my domain costs all of $8. My phone's going off. But get out of here, get out of here. Let's get right into it. We saw a movie this week. What do we go see, guys? Grindhouse. So we went to see Grindhouse. This is the movie that is a two-part-- Actually, it's five parts. It's five parts. You've got to hold the mic up here. It's five parts, I'm sorry. He used to keep the mic in your SP. It's my first time out of the jail cell. So this is Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino teaming up. They both do almost full-length films. And it's interspersed by trailers. And they're doing an homage to all the old Grindhouse films from the '70s. And let's have right at it. You guys are big Grindhouse fans? Yes, yes. He's a bigger one than I am, obviously. As you can see by his girth. But we saw that the Nuke Beverly, which is the mecca of all Grindhouse. Here in Los Angeles. In Los Angeles. And they've been having a Grindhouse festival for the last two weeks, where they do a couple of letters. The last two months, Quentin has donated his private collection of exploitative titles, Grindhouse titles. And it's been going on every night. But prior to this, Eric Caden and Brian Quinn, who work at Hollywood Book and Poster, have been having once a month at Grindhouse Festival there. The last five years, they've been doing it. And it's just a great night. It's a night of double features of different titles, themes, but things that would play in the Grindhouse fair from the late '60s, early '70s. And it started with very few people. And now it's sometimes the theater sells out. Yeah, I pass it every day on the way to work. And sooner or later, I have to go to the Nuke Beverly. They were playing a double feature. They were playing the conformist and an officer under suspicion. Yeah, a person who was a citizen. A citizen who was a suspicion, those two Italian movies. And I missed out. I really effed up. And then on Halloween, I think they were playing Monster Squad, double feature with some other fun '80s. Or with Lost Boys. Yeah, it's very eclectic. The guys that run it, they really know their stuff. They'll have like three Marx Brothers films. They do a couple of silent films. They do like bullet-different connection. The films are sort of themed. The classics, the Casablanca, Maltese Vulcan. But they'll do a foreign films with some really great French noir. I think between that and the American Cinematheque, those are the two best places to watch films in Los Angeles. Now, I'm a little partial, of course, to my hometown heroes, the Alma Drafthouse. Best movie theater in the world. But let's get down to the nitty gritty, the movie that we saw, Grindhouse. What did you guys think of the movie and its various pieces and parts? Well, first of all, overall, it's a blast. I think we probably saw it with the best-- Yeah, we saw it with the best-- Best audience in the nation. But it was just a blast. It was a roller coaster ride. You guys saw a midnight Thursday screen. We saw a midnight Thursday at Grindhouse. Was anybody attending? What was going on? We sort of knew that the grapevine certain people were going to be there. Yeah. Some guy with a huge headset in front of me and blocked half the screen. It turned out it was quite-- Robert Rodriguez sat next to him, so I was wearing the mask the whole time. But they came in the first 10 minutes and watched the film with us. Because fans will surge after you, if you remove the mask. Of course, yes. I'm too good looking to be seen in public. Not only fans, but authorities from multiple-- Chris Hanson from If You Watch Him Dateline, the mask is staying on. So you thought it was a blast? It was. It was a lot of fun. I enjoyed it. I enjoyed the film. I think these guys grew up in that era. They know the Grindhouse. And the term Grindhouse is being thrown out now. I only people really realize what it is. Grindhouse is where the theaters in 42nd Street, New York, where they will continuously show films 24 hours a day. Until the film just falls apart. Literally, what they throw you, the place it burned down. So you can pay your money, your two bucks, five bucks. And you would sit there and you watch two, three, four films, plus the trailers. And they just keep grinding them out. And a lot of these films, some of Hollywood films, a lot of regional films, independent films. And that's where a lot of these filmmakers from the Northeast are to get influence that come out of. And for years and years, these films were sort of like lost treasures. And it wasn't until something weird video and certain websites and magazines started heroing these movies at films. And Tarantino is a big fan of that in Los Angeles. The number one place to get these films in Tarantino goes there all the time. And everyone knows it. It's Eddie Branson, Sadie Matney. It's the best producer in the world. And everyone knows it. But they have like 70,000 titles. And most of those are Grindhouse Fair and stuff. That the things that everyone would like to see. And at least today with the internet and all this stuff coming out, there's a lot of access to these movies now. And with Grindhouse back to the film was a lot, a lot of fun. I think it was a real throwback to the days of like the John Carpenter films, these exploitative movies, these wild zombie movies, car chase films. Wasn't there a rumor that John Carpenter was going to do the music at one point? I think at Comic-Con, they were talking about how they wanted John Carpenter to do the music. And watching Planet Terror, I think Robert Rodriguez, who did the music for it, did as good impersonation of John Carpenter's type of score. I felt like I was watching some of the movies that I loved when I was growing up, which literally like my one favorite crap movie of all time is Night of the Comet. Oh, that's a great film. And it just got released on DVD about the two girls who were grounded in the comet, flies over at Haley's Comet, and turns everybody in the zombies, but since they're grounded, they don't get turned into zombies. And you turned to dust if you were on set? Yeah, and we remade that in college, we did a little movie called Spores, the movie about two guys. We're so uncool, they just play PlayStation all the way through, and when they're done playing PlayStation, they just didn't look up at everybody as a zombie, which is funny because when Sean and the Dead came out, I was sitting with my friends who had all seen Spores, and they were like, dude, they got PlayStation in that movie, they got zombies, they got comedy, they got all that, but Edgar Wright is just as smart and talented as I am. He had a trailer, which is great. The best trailer I think. It was absolutely brilliant, it was called Don't. And it looked like an amicus film from the '70s, which is absolutely brilliant. Well, I couldn't find any filth on "Skin of Axie" the other night, so I tuned into Charlie Rose, and they were on there. And he was talking about how he was John Carpenter as an influence for his part of the film. - It's awesome, he's just running, he's talking. - Yeah, in my two cents on this movie is that "Planet Tear" owns. It is the perfect movie for me. Basically, it's the one where there's a kind of an agent orange type chemical that gets out and starts turning people into zombies, and the military has lost control of it. And of course, you've got this small town that has to deal with the zombie invasion. And that movie is perfect. In my opinion, it is perfect. All of the characters have multiple levels to them, both internally and externally. There's a million pot lines going on, and usually a movie like that gets away from you. But he did a really good job of wrapping up everything. In the writing, it's probably the tightest writing Robert Rodriguez has had. - Well, he worked on it, in that interview, he said he worked on it for like two and a half years, and it shows us. - He had an idea a little while ago, and he's been working on it for quite a while. - You can tell when he's shot a movie like "Once Upon a Time in Mexico" or "The Last Two Spike His Movies." You can tell when he just shoots these movies out. The homework hasn't totally been done. This movie was tight as hell. - Yeah. - It was written, it packs a lot into it. - Yeah, there's no wasted scene. Really, it moves, there's no wasted scenes. It's really just a lot of fun. And I always, I want to give a nod to him, and I think Quentin also was, these guys are very well read also. I think they give certain nods, especially, there's a character called L. Ray, which is a Freddy Rodriguez character in it, and L. Ray is the name of-- - The town, in the Jim Thompson. - In the getaway. - Yeah, exactly. Which if people actually read the novel, the Jim Thompson novel, the last part of that novel becomes a surreal nightmare. And I always dug Quentin for putting that in Dust Tildon, because it was the only time they really, really, Quentin knows his stuff, especially when it comes to pulp literature. So that was a nice nod to see that in there. - Yeah, I love in Dust Tildon, how they have to get to L. Ray. - And when you get to L. Ray, you're actually screwed. But people don't, unless you read the book, you don't know that. - I want to give my props to Rose McGowan's plastic surgeon because she is kicking in this movie. - You know, and I've never really seen what other people see in her. You know, I always thought of her in the same way that, there are the celebrity girls who, they reach a point and I'm done with them. You know what I mean? Like, I'm sure Marilyn Manson is a fantastic human being and a good guy. But I get question marks. Angelina Jolie can adopt Africa. And you still will always be the girl with Billy Bob Thornton's blood in a vial. You know what I mean? She can run the United Nations and become Sidney Poitier, but like, she can become Mother Teresa and she'll still be the person with the blood in the vial. And Rose McGowan was kind of like that and this movie actually put a dent in that prejudice 'cause she is really hot and talented. - Yeah, she was good. Everyone was good. It was well cast. It was very well cast and I think both films. And I like the fact that Michael Parks came in from one film from the other and that which is, it's a nice continuity tie in and they gave some nice nods to Tarantino's of the films, you know. - And Josh Brolin really screwed up. - Josh Brolin was phenomenal. - Josh Brolin was like- - Pretty goony's fans. - He was- - The old brother and goony's really kicks ass in this and creeps you out hard. - He was great, he really, it might be like a Nick Nolte sort of mixed with an old William Smith. You know, he was just great in it. - So, my reservation about the film and you guys are gonna boo and his. I almost walked out on the Quentin Tarantino one. - Well, you think it was too long at one point? - I thought it was painfully overdone and masturbatory in those dialogue scenes. I checked out bad. In those 10 minute long shots going around tables where you have a really obnoxiously dialogue sex in the city with 20 year olds going on. I was done. I was done. - Talk about like mechanics. - I was done. That movie Death Proof is the one that takes place after the trailers and after Robert triggers his film and I was not sold on it at all. There's about five minutes of really awesome stuff. So if you guys haven't seen Grindhouse yet, wanna go see it, my advice is see it. When the Quentin Tarantino movie starts, if you're feeling a little tired and not out for it, go home. It'll be out on TVD by the end of the year. I wanna watch the good parts then because it really became incessant and masturbatory. I was like, the dude loves to hear himself write. - It was the car, it went to car chases with phenomenal. - Car chases a little scrape. - Except I keep telling myself, okay, if somebody's next to you, smashing your car and being like, "Hey, I'm gonna kill you." - You hit the brakes. - I was thinking this, I thought-- - I think the brakes-- - Kurt Russell, every time he's on the screen is great. And Kurt Russell gave one of the all-time great nods to the audience ever seen the film and I think you know what I'm talking about. There's a part where Kurt Russell looks to the camera and he waits a beat and a beat and a half but is absolutely brilliant. I mean, Jimmy, that was the highlight of the film for me. - Yeah, I was pretty checked out. I think I was hiding under my head. Guys, it was really painful for me to sit through some of that dialogue and I feel like this is his freebie for giving us Kill Bill. - I should have swooshed him wrong. I think he would have been more forgiving at the end of the first. - 'Cause it was all action, all action and then it just kinda aired out. - And it aired out for a long time. - Again, in that interview the other night, he said, you know, Robert Rodriguez was working on his for quite a while. He just sat down and did it and so there wasn't a lot of time put into him, he could have. - He's very talented, but I think you could make a mad libs for Tarantino scripts where you have a space for Kung Fu film, 60s television show, you know, and you just fill 'em in and you've got your Tarantino script almost like a mad libs, you know? - Well, he has his references and I think he knows him so well. Sometimes he thinks, I don't think he realizes the audience. - He's becoming one of the references. - Yeah, true. - It's a little crazy. There's something that happens in almost every one of his dialogue scenes where someone will state a fact and somebody will repeat the fact as a question and that's half the conversation. - What do you mean by that? - He's like, I called Kimmy last night. You called Kimmy last night? Well, I call, you know, it's just like (humming) and that's all it is for half the conversation with a little bit of sugar and jolt cola, like thrown in, some comic book thrown in, shaken up, blended, and that's your conversation. And yeah, it didn't feel disciplined at all. And with this, you really got to bring it. You can argue that he's lulling the audience into submissions for the really high tension for that first accident, which is really well designed. - Yeah, very well. - The tension in that is extremely well designed. You can argue that he's lulling him again for the last chase scene, but I think there's other ways to lull. - Yeah, very good. - That's my one negative of the film. I want to see it again. - Yeah, I think there's a lot of hot ladies in that second part though. - Yeah, there's a lot of fun. I think the trailer, I mean, the machete trailer, which is brilliant. - I want to see a machete trailer now. - I mean, that was great. - I want to see a machete movie now. - And Thanksgiving was top notch. - And I hear they're making the machete movie for a straight to DVD. And Gilmore is nodding. Can we get over to Gilmore over here at ringside? - Yeah. - Personally, I'm really, really excited about the machete movie coming straight to video. I mean, as a Hispanic, for one. And, I mean, just everything about that first trailer, how awesome was that trailer? I've taken a vow of peace. (laughs) I've taken a vow of peace. - Let's take you back yourself up. - It's so good. And I think the trailer, other than the entire movie, I mean, I also didn't like Quentin Tarantino's part as much, but I really, really did like my favorite trailer. What was your guy's favorite trailer? - Don't. - Don't. - That's one too. - No, it was machete. I mean, you know, Denny Trail is the Mexican Charles Bronson. He's just fucking badass. And there's no one better Carlos Bronson. - Oh man, see, that's weird. We're all different here. I'm all about Thanksgiving. All about Thanksgiving. - 'Cause you wanna fuck a turkey. - That was amazing. That was amazing. There was seriously, that trailer was perfect. I remember seeing trailers like that renting, like renting shitty movies as a child, because I always, for some reason, I don't know what the hell was wrong with me. I always seeked out these types of movies, but fuck, that was perfect. - I think a shorter list would be what is right with you. - But seriously though, I mean, everything down to the-- - You're even creepy laughing at a mess. - Everything down to the boy, yeah, doesn't it look-- - I'm gonna come to your house. I'm gonna watch you sleep. - Is that what this looks like? But, um. (laughs) - Walk your trailer to school. (laughs) Hold your children's hands while going to school. But, no, but seriously though, even down to the voiceover artist, the Thanksgiving trailer was perfect. Thanksgiving. I mean, it wasn't like over the top, it was just very quiet. - I like the Rob Zombie one a lot, especially-- - That was my least favorite one. - I did not know Nicholas Cage was gonna show up with that. - That was hilarious. - That was the best I've ever seen Nicholas Cage ever. - Oh my God. - Do you think that maybe that's a little hint that Nicholas Cage might be Mandarin in the Iron Man movie? That's exactly what I thought when I saw that. - No, they gotta, just between Yumi and Hollywood, Mandarin's gotta be played by a Japanese guy. - No, yeah, the Iron Man movie. - Well, you think they'd actually do Nicholas Cage? - Yeah, Nicholas Cage is not a Japanese. - No, but yeah, but Thanksgiving was fine. - It was fine with Japanese girls at restaurants. It marries them. - No, such a cringe factor thing. Like, I don't have a vagina. But if I did, in the Thanksgiving trailer-- - The cheerleader? - I'm gonna try to get one. It's when, once you're a girl, is jumping out of the tramp-- was jumping on the trampoline. - The lens on a knife. - He kills the other guy. Knife sticking out, hold everyone in the theater. Oh, it was just, it was an experience. I say, go, bring candy, stay it throughout the entire thing. You really do it. Because I texted you. - Yeah. - I warned you, I'm like, dude, get some snacks, get some caffeine. It's gonna be long. - You should've said Tarantino movie stars, walk out. (laughs) Here's the thing, we would've walked out, but I turned to Graham, who's not here today. And Graham said, I'm not walking out, I have to see these annoying bitches die. - Oh, that's awesome. - Yeah. - I actually, I think it was worth it. Don't you think the payoff was worth it? - No. - Wow. - But it's good. - Okay. - But no, fast forwarding would've made it worth it. - Okay. - Sorry. - No, yeah. - Guys, I'm a huge Quentin Tarantino fan. - Right, no, so am I. - Just not in this one. - Would you like put the Rob Zombie one? - I will watch that any day of the week. I would love to see a werewolf one of the SS movie. - Any day of the week. So speaking of trailers guys, the Halloween trailer, Rob Zombie's Halloween trailer came out, and our guests can actually have a microphone back. Gil Moore just wants to take over the show. And you guys saw it kind of choppy on the internet, and we can't play it here because it's Windows Media. Talk about the little bit that you saw from the trailer, and the movie in general. Are you guys stoked with this? - Until I see the film, I can't comment. I mean, I haven't seen the movie, but I'm like the old school. I mean, I thought the original film was brilliant, and I had actually had promised the original film some problems ahead with it, but I don't know how the story is, so I can't comment, but I mean, I don't know if they can get this character or Baxter, and this is a character. It's like the Texas Chainsaw character. - You really don't need a back story with these guys. - I mean, there's a psychopath. - Well, no, it's just, you don't know, and it's up to the audience to make up where these guys came from, their minds and stuff. There's one scene beginning at Halloween that the original that sort of irked me, but besides that, it's a great little love. I never thought they should show the kid's face in the beginning, or at the end. Never see the kid's face at all. I think that's a mistake, the carbonated, if that's the only mistake he did. But Zombie's an interesting guy. He has a different take on things, a visual saw. I mean, I'm sure he'll bring something hopefully different to the table for this. It's got a good cast on it here. - You know, I like the original too. I used to jacked to the scene of the sister taking her clothes off, so it really touches my heart. - I thought you were telling the closest guy. - I gotta say, if Zombie can marry his style to a great script, it's gonna be kick ass. So, we'll see what happens. - Yeah, we can't comment until we see it. - Yeah. You guys put out a book. - Yes, we did. - Mandalucha Gogo. Let's take a look at it. Why don't you talk a little bit about it? The book, the book is called "Mondolucha Gogo," the bizarre and honorable world of wild Mexican wrestlers. Mexican wrestling, I'm sorry. And you did all the photography with your golden-- - I did most of the photography. I was kind of his sidekick. He took me to the matches and-- - He was my top guy, yeah. - I didn't realize what I was getting into, but there was people flying over me. It was like shooting superheroes, it was amazing. - And you did the writing? - Yes, I did. - This is a pretty solid book. This is heavy, and people can find this on Amazon, they can find it on-- - Amazon, border, it's-- - My space. - My space. - My space is-- - My space.com/Mondolucha is the best place to get information and buy it and all that stuff. - We had some great contributors, besides the mental goal that I, Daniel Chavillo, it was one of the photographers, and his dad was also a wrestling wrestler. It was Dr. Lama in the '60s and '70s. Dorothy Lee was a great, she was of great guts and with her work. And then I had some great contributors, also I had Keith Rainville contributed some side bars and I had, I was lucky to have Rungin Chibber, who was a doctor of film studies at George Washington University. He wrote two chapters for me, and one about how Mexican wrestling influenced Japanese wrestling. - Wow. - So we really had some top pedigree people contributing. - And Toby Hooper did the intro. - Toby Hooper wrote an introduction for me. - That's huge. - Toby Hooper's-- - Our audience, that's huge. - Toby Hooper, the original director of the great Texas Chainsaw Massacre wrote a nice introduction to me, and then Kurt Angle, who's two wrestling fans, Evan O's Kurt, your brother knows well, with big gold medals, he wrote a forward for me. So it was nice to contact my friends and they were really excited about it. So they made a mistake in not putting Toby's name on the cover, but that's an added bonus to the fans. You open up, you see Toby's name and you see what he's written for the book. - Yeah, well his name will be on the paperback. - No, how did you get interested in doing a book like this? - I've always been a fan of Mexican wrestling, where I came, I mean, it was just, to me, he was a Santoist's large and large character. I mean, he was just, I mean-- - I bought my brother a box set of Santo's films. - I love seeing a Mexican wrestler fight Frankenstein. - Well, see, that's the great part about the Mexican wrestling from the Lucha films is it starts out with a wrestling match and then he sees, he finishes the opponent and he hooks up some heart girl, drives her on in the convertible, knows a scientist. - All in a mask. - In a suit, in a suit, or a trail neck. Then he fights Martians, Ozon, this one, Nazis of vampires. - That's a perfect movie. - And then he goes back, during fighting the mods, he has to go back to the arena to have another match though. Beat his opponent, come back, hook up with some heart chick again and then save the world. That's basically the plot for these stuff. - And the mass never comes off. - And the mass never, the mass never comes off. - A good part of the book is about that, all the movies that Santo was in. - Yes. - And he wasn't the first, there was, there was wrestlers before Santo, El Santo went to the silver screen. Hurricane Ramirez was one of the first medical, you know. And it's funny, since I finished the book, Hurricane Ramirez has passed the way, black shadow passed the way, and Tony Pina passed the way. And I dedicated the book to Eddie Guerrero, who you brother knows, and you know well, yeah. - Yeah, I remember getting the phone call about Eddie McGurro passing away from Paul. - That was. - The morning that they found his body, that was really emotional. - Yeah, it was really tragic. - That was November 13th at wedding anniversary. - And I got the call from Michael Cole, was a friend of mine, and was he knew I liked Eddie a lot, and Eddie was helping me with this. And it was just, I all have to say is the Guerrero's, was in the nicest, the whole family, it just class-acked all the way, just great people, they were. - I don't know them. - Trust me, they're great, they're great. - You're a son of a bitch. - But it's a fun book, but how I can involve this, a friend of mine just called me up who works for Harper Collins, to some extent to it. - Uh-huh. - Through this agency, Mark, Mark Gerald, and he's an editor, he's a book agent, and he started work with Rio Books, who's an imprint of Harper Collins, and the guys over there go, do you know anyone that knows about Mexican wrestling? He says, well, I know, Baron Bon Bava, me, and he says, so he gives me a call, and he says, which was-- - Because Baron, and you're like, yes, I'm on my estate. - Yes, sorry, yes, I'm straining. - I'm interrogating prisoners. He said, would you like to write a book about Lucha Libre, and I said, well, are you gonna pay me? And at the time, I was working for the WWE, so a conflict of interest, I couldn't write the book and why I was still working for them. When I finished the book, when I finished working for them, I started the book right away, and it took about two years to do. But I've always been a fan, but because I worked in the wrestling business, people knew I knew my stuff, and I would, you know, keep the kayfabe, which your brother would know. I mean, so a lot of people opened up to me, and we had great access to posters from, like I said, Hollywood Book and Poster, and private collections, personal collections. I would throw Ed into the foray and say, you scream, get these pictures, get these pictures. The man with the gold that I would take these pictures. - Literally. - Now, if someone said you're not getting the pictures, what were some of the things that you would have to resort to in order to get the product? - I would just put it this way. I was one of the only English-speaking people. - Yeah, we were there. - In the place. So I would just-- - We were the only-- - Is there any physical intimidation that you would do. - I was the smallest guy in the place, so I would cry, first of all. - You know, the golden eye may be one of the English. - The golden eyes. - We had all the tears. - We had all the tears. - We were a cowardly wrestler. - Yes, and I-- - He's a root up. - I would pee myself sometimes. - You are a disgrace. - So you had the golden shower from the golden mask. - Oh, Jesus. - No, but I got him. I mean, I was in there, and-- - Did you ever get hit by a wrestler flying on him? - Yeah, I got kicked in the head a few times. - Yeah, he got kicked in. - I mean, literally, I had no idea what I was getting into the first match. These two guys just were sailing over me like this, and I'm just snaps him. - And then they're in, you know, there's folding chairs everywhere. They're in, it's the family Sunday out down in East LA. - It's a lot different than American wrestling. - They get into the crowd, and they're in the crowd. They're beating each other up. It's insanity. I was just snapping away, I couldn't stop. It was so much fun. - And it's a lot different than American wrestling, this whole different dynamic. - And how much of the choreography is real, and how much is it not real in like going into the choreography? I mean, you know what I mean? Like mapping it out ahead of time. - Even comparing the two? - I'm mapping it. - Okay, let's get it out, yeah. - Actually, I gotta say, if I was gonna compare the two-- - Be some straight. - You are freaking me out, babe. - Stop freaking him out, YouTube. - Well, what-- - The Lucha Libre-- - Yeah, compare the two. - It's in the air the whole time. I mean, there's high spots that are jumping out of the ring into the audience. - Yeah, it looks like, yeah. - I forget the guy that jumped off the balcony. - Oh, there was several guys that went off the balcony. - But our buddy-- - Don't worry, would you do this? - Yeah, no. - Chilango. - Chilango. - We're in the Mayan Theater, and he climbs up onto a 25-foot balcony and jumps into the crowd. It was crazy. - On a date, but a lot of the Mexican wrestlers aren't as big as the American counterparts, whether through supplements or training or diet, so they're not as big, and so they use more high spots, they go up the ropes more, and they have a lot more athleticism at Robix. Acrobat moves to their-- - Do you think it's the beans? - Yeah, I think that may help. - It's the tea, yeah. - They get a little extra tap and stuff, but-- - It's the tamale. - But there seems to, in the culture, that they embrace, the Mexicans really embrace this. - Right. - It's serious, I mean, the most important thing in the Mexican wrestlers, Arsenal is this mask. - Right. - And now in Lucha Libre, anyone that wrestles called the Lucha Dora, or Lucha Dora, or a woman called Lucha Dora's, but anyone that wears a mask is called the Namaskarado. So some people wear a mask, some just don't, but there are actual competitions of matches. It's called the mask versus mask matching. The loser has this mask taken off. - He's disgraced. - He loses his identities. His identity is shown to the world, and basically, you know, he can lose his persona. - So you guys are both undefeated. - Yeah, but I'm sure I'll be disgraced by the end of this. So I'll have to take off the mask. - Gilmour is a disgrace. - The fact that you have a mask on is disgraceful to whoever carries that mask. You know that, right? - Is there a character that goes along with us? - Yes. - He's going to find you. - Tell me about this guy. - That is the mask, that's the temple of El Santo, who's like the, he's a good friend of yours. He's a good friend of all of us. El Santo is part of the most famous and maskarado, the famous Lucha Dora of all time. You are running him through the mud. - But that's not his son. - But this is funny. Now El Santo passed away, before he died, he gave his mask to his son, and his son carries on the tradition. - And that's not his son. - His son's going to whip your ass, bro. - I'll take it. - You can't, he'll know what you look like. - And this is the mask of Plutima Jr., also Plutima's buried in his mask and he gave the mask to his son. - Wow. - So it's a filling tradition. These guys are buried in their mask. - So Baron, it says here that a friend of yours helped write it, a guy named Dan Matigan. - Yeah, Dan Matigan. - Now he is a mark for you, I'm sure. A big fan of yours. - Yeah, we get along. - Well, me and Dan, he's an interesting guy. - No, no, he wrote a film called Cino Evil. - Yes, Cino Evil. - Is that the Lionsgate WWE film with Kane in it? - That's the one with the wrestler Kane in it. Dan Rault, they told me what happened, he wrote it. - And what is your son's name again? - Oh, mine. - Hey, what is, what is up? - Baron, what is there? - Dan's son's name. - Dan's son's name is Kane, also. But Kane was named before the script that came about. That's just the best-- - It was the bibble that came out. - Just from Dan Matigan. - What was it about? - We like the name Kane. - It was a bibble cool thing. - Yeah, well, it's not, I don't wanna get too much of a complex, but yeah, but yeah, we had the name picked out before, and Mr. Matigan wrote the script. And the script, this original script that was exceedingly brutal and violent in certain people called. In fact, Lance Hendrickson called them up to be in it. And I know you genre fans don't know Lance. - Oh man. - And Lance is a-- - They're erect right now. - Yeah, Lance is a friend of Dan Matigan. And I had, we had Lance set up to be in the film and I told the producers and I told the Vince McMahon that this is a guy that can play the role and then have a content-- - On Dan's behalf. - On Dan's behalf, I called. And they never contacted Lance Hendrickson. And they told me-- - Whoa! - They never contacted Lance. And Lance called Mr. Matigan and said, I wanna play this role of the cop. I think it's brilliant. And they never contacted Lance. And they told me who called Mr. Matigan and said, I wanna direct this. I think this is fantastic. And they never called Tony. - That sounds like fish in a barrel. - Yeah, but they also changed the ending of the script. It was a brutal rollcoaster ride and they sort of pulled the stops off the end. It sort of took away some of the bite, but I thought Kane did a great job. He's a great villain. He's just a great guy in general. And did eventual director Gregory Dark really did a great job we had to work with. - So, is there a sequel here? No, you will. - So, you know, you never know characters of a dying stuff. - Right. - And I think it could be a franchise character. Kane himself is a real horror fan, very sharp, sharp guy. And the fans love him. - I'm looking forward to the condemned. We interviewed-- - Oh, Steve. - We're gonna put some interviews up next week on the site of Stone Cold Steve Austin and he's going to be like that. That's a lot of fun, Steve. - Steve's a good guy. - Great guy. But the book is "Mondo, Lucha," a go-go. You guys can find it basically anywhere. Books are sold, maybe not our funny books, but if you guys go to Borders or Barnes & Noble-- - Barnes & Noble, Amazon. - Yeah, that's all the place. - And you guys have a website for it? - You have a website, it's-- - It is myspace.com/MondoLucha. - Cool. Check that out. There's tons of movie news we can get right on to. - Noise. - About a list. Jurassic Park 4. In an interview, Laura Dern says that she got a phone call from a certain somebody about doing a Jurassic Park 4 out by the holiday 2008. - Woo! - Now with Indiana Jones 4, how the hell is that gonna happen? - Why do you say that? - Well, they have to shoot the movie with the same director. Maybe Spielberg can produce it. Yeah, maybe they can be shot so anonymously. I'm really not interested in seeing a Jurassic Park movie that Spielberg's not directing. - Right, well, what did you think of the second one though? 'Cause he did the second one, nobody likes that. - The second one I heard that he actually just faxed it in and he was rarely even on the set. - Really? - He watched it through monitors the second one. - But seriously-- - Jurassic Park. - But seriously, like King Kong looked like crap. - Pops it on his lap. - And, but seriously though, King Kong looked like crap. I don't think I've ever seen, I haven't seen a better dinosaur since the first Jurassic Park. - I haven't seen a better one. - I actually love Peter Jackson's King Kong. - King Kong? Really, it was terrible. - I love the use. - What was a good, what did you not like about it? - Everything. First of all, the original film is classic. You have to remake it. - Sure. - It's 80 something minutes. It's fast paced, it works well. - Right. - And just because you've got the ability to use CGI, better stuff. And there was no, you could go on and on. I mean, him skating on the ice, her doing these routine for him. You know, and also now King Kong knows judo. He has to fight three dinosaurs that are one. Originally, Mary C. Cooler, and Erena showed a guy. - That's fairly convincing actually. When you put in the context of King Kong knowing judo, it's like, you could not like that movie. - It was actually a different movie. - Yeah, seriously. - He's rape ape now. - He's just a guillotine gorilla with you know. - A guillotine gorilla. - Yeah, seriously that. - I would love to see a guillotine gorilla. - I just thought Peter, I thought it was terrible. In fact, my friend off to the side, I went with him to see it and I kept punching him because Peter Jackson was on a romp me to hit. - Oh man. - Which is terrible. - No, yeah, but I have not seen a great dinosaur since the first Jurassic Park, I'm saying. - You've seen the giant behemoth? - I have not. - You should watch that. - Yeah. - That'll be the greatest answer you ever see. The giant behemoth from the '50s. - Oh, okay. I think I know what you're talking about then. Yeah. - Oh. - Brian, Brian, you are making a lot of sense. - I'm blasting. - Who is on camera right now? Everybody? Oh wow, that is magical. - Look at that. - That is magical. - That is magical. - I do like the-- - No, but I'm saying they've all looked like crap from there on out. Even the ones in Jurassic Park 3, those looked terrible. - I mean, it's tough to get a dinosaur on the film. - Yeah, but it's like someone. - With the union. - Yeah, I heard it's a bad dinosaur union where they splatter paint all over you. What the hell was all the multi-colored dinosaurs in Jurassic Park 3? Did you see that? - Honestly, Jurassic Park. - That movie was painful. - Yeah, it was just, they were all red and white and I just wasn't into it. Talking about horror movies, our good buddy Kevin Smith is throwing himself into the arena with another movie called Red State. That's the name of Kevin Smith's new horror movie. - Oh, okay. - And he revealed the plot. This is all news that we got from Geekscaped.net. - Check it out. - We have a bunch of kids on Geekscaped.net who are throwing, it's kind of an aggregate side for news from all over the web. They throw it on Geekscaped.net. I check one place now. But somebody Martin Shearer, one of our loyal Geekscaped has put in this one about Red State. And that's the name of Kevin Smith's next horror movie. And it's about a guy roughly based on Fred Phelps, who's like a really conservative. - Yeah, religious, he goes protesting all the people at that age and whatnot. - Right, right, and so Kevin's quoted as saying that dude has always fascinated me and he's really informed the horror movie that I'm working on. The movie's called Red State and it's very much about that subject matter, that point of view and that position taken to the absolute extreme. It certainly not Phelps himself, but it's very much inspired by a Phelps figure. He said that on a Rotten Tomatoes interview in the UK. And yeah, I think that's the coolest thing about horror movies is how much social commentary you can run in these films. And the best horror movies are social commentary. And Kevin Smith, I'm so little wary of him is a horror director, but I definitely feel like he needs to diversify his vocabulary. - The old war stuff, yeah, the war stuff. - Yeah, he needs to diversify his overall. How do you guys feel about being such horror fans? How do you guys feel about Kevin Smith throwing his hat into the ring? - I think he's a talented guy. I mean, let's see the finished product. - Right. - It's hard to, like I said, with the Rob Zombie thing, until we're seeing snippets and clips, until we see the final hand-- - Rob's on these movies, kick ass. His horror movies kick ass. And Rob Zombie really has a feel for what deep down really disturbs you visually and emotionally. His movies and the style that he brings to it is completely original. And he really takes something and makes it his own and you feel it. - Yeah, he's got a lot of-- - Viscerally feel it. - Even his videos impress me. He used to direct his own music. So he has a great, he knows the genre, he knows the stuff. And I'm anxious to see, I don't want to comment, I see his stuff, I think it'll be good. I don't know Kevin, I mean, I like Kevin Smith, but he's well versed up in film in general. I'm sure that I don't think he'll go on this half-assed. I think he'll do his due diligence. - Look, I think that I think it's great because I think as many directors as can can do different genres, then that's fantastic. And I'd really like to see something like that. A Wild Back Spike Jones and Charlie Kaufman, we're gonna do a horror movie. - Yeah. - And I'd like to see directors mix it up a little more than that because they get pigeonholed and then I think that's part of the problem. - You know, I'm waiting for Shyamalan's romantic comedy. - Personally, I'd be scared of Kevin Smith going, kind of doing what Quentin Tarantino did with Death Proof. I'd be kind of scared of him just having a really, really long dialogue-y zombie movies, which is not what we want. - Really what you want is, you just want to get to the action. - Yeah, you want to see people's heads getting cut off, you want to see really creative ways of people dying or suffering. - You snake fast, right? - Yeah, well, I mean, the mask is with it. - But it's like red cemetery, I mean. - Delamorte Delamorte, that's one of the best. - But I got to say, the exercise is a lot of talk, too, and I think that is quite successful as our film. - But that's a different kind of horror. - Delamorte, dammit. - It's a different generation, too. - I mean, you're talking about it. - You're actually not mad at you, I love you, buddy. Bending it towards the comic books, Grant Morrison, huge comic writer, is writing the adaptation of Area 51, the video game, for Paramount, Grant Morrison's writing it. - He's the guy who wrote some of the greatest books that came out of the early '90s, late '80s. - He doesn't visible this. - Yeah, he's known best for his... - What's the name of that? - Arkham Asylum. - Arkham Asylum, stuff like that. He revamped the X-Men a little while ago. - Yeah, he can do really weird stuff, too. You've seen the filth, the rank of fighter. He's a really talented writer. - Really intelligent. - But he's his first stab, I'm thinking, at film. - Okay, he's really fucking weird, too. Isn't he like Alan Moore where he believes in magic and stuff? - I can't speak for Mr. Morrison, his belief in magic. All right, I just think that the game actually blows. - No, yeah, how the hell could they make a movie out of that, isn't it just that, isn't that the game? You guys have probably seen this in the... - I know the game, Area 51, where you make your way into Area 51 and you fight... - It's like a red-blue gun. - It's like a red-blue gun. - It's like a dead-type gun game. - I don't play, I don't play, I don't play. - Yeah, it's a red-blue gun, the two people next to each other in an arcade game, right? - Like "House of the Dead" do that when you suck. But, no, but I mean, this has even less of a possibility to have some kind of plot. I mean, it's just a bunch of really shitty-looking monsters that come out that were like actual... - I couldn't, they're actually... - Actually, seriously, people were. I really can't take you seriously. - But they were actual filmed people in like moral combat style only that they're popping out of places. - I'm like, I don't know. - It's gonna go more again. - It's just, yeah. - I guess this gen, a lot of your fans, a big video. - They love video games. - Yeah, but a lot of them are actually have good taste in video games and movies. So, who's directing this? Who's directing this? - We don't know, I just know that he's writing it. - Why would he do that? Why would that be his first? - Dude, a paycheck is a paycheck. You pay as mortgage, dude. (laughing) - It's easier for you to pop a squat and start talking some trash over the internet. (laughing) - It's always the best excuse that I remember... - Here's my fear with doing-- - Okay, okay, go. - 'Cause I lay my opinions out here and I'm very, very sincere with everybody. I'm fairly honest, and I'm very honest. My fear is that I'm gonna get into a meeting one day and somebody's gonna be like, "You know what, we would offer you this job, but you really did like X3 and that was kind of my baby." (laughing) - I wanted to make rush hour six and-- - With a mask. - Yeah, I will not do that. If Harry and all of us can get away with it, why not? - He has a mask. - Yeah, he has a mask. - It's a glandular problem. - So, speaking about comic book professionals doing movies, Jeff Johns, who did a bunch of great JSA books, he did a great flash run, 52. He's one of the big writers in comics, and Lauren Schuller, who's married, of course, to Richard Donner. She's responsible for the X-Men movies. - So I'm calling him Dick. - A ton of stuff. They're gonna do a metal man, a metal man movie, Warner Brothers, which is one of these super teams that DC has. - Yeah, I was a fan of that. - Can you explain the attraction of the metal men to me, because I'm not feeling it. I'm like, wait, if you have, in your catalog, Wonder Woman, The Flash, Green Lantern, a ton of awesome characters that haven't seen the screen yet. - Rock and airy. - What's up with you guys making a metal man movie? You know what I mean? - They didn't take me to the confidence, but I remember as a kid, I thought it was such a quirky thing. You had Lead Man, Tin Man. There's all these different characters that attributes of, and they were designed different. This is like a pre-dune patrol, and all these things. - Dune Control was Grant Morris. - Yeah, it was kind of an offshoot. I remember sometimes these stories were put in the back of a Batman comic sometimes, and they branched it on their own, but it was such a different quirky thing. At the time, it was so different. That's why I dug it and stuff. And they had a lot of different properties, too. Some guys were like plastic man, they were stretched, they can do that stuff. So I thought that was cool. And I think today, if you have a great production designer, they could really be something different. And it might be a really fun family film. - Yeah. - In a way that Mr. and Men was not. - K.Y. Jelly Man. - I think the professional that book I turned you on to. - Oh, the professional? - Yeah. - He turned me on The Sin City, and I turned him on the professional. - Did you turn him into-- - I went to college with The Golden Eye. I went to film school with The Golden Eye. - The Golden Eye. - And I was like, "Mr. Golden Eye." And he's like, "What do you want, Peon?" I was like, "Please." - I love your match. Is it okay if I give you some comic books to read when you are pleasuring women. And he's like, "Give me your stupid, funny books." - And I read them, and I loved them. The professional, I take it to go on for one. - The professional one that was the dude who writes Punisher. The Garthenist. - Is it just called the Pro? - The Pro. - The Pro. Damn, sorry about that. - The Pro is great. - The female superhero, who was a prostitute. - Exactly. - That has to produce fuck you to D.C. Superhero. - Yeah. - Top? - Notch. - It's awesome. - The best is when the Superman-type character blows his load. - Notch a plane out of the sky. - I know. - So-- - B.J., this is actually-- - You're actually gonna-- - No, yeah, it's seriously good. If you guys love to hate superheroes, the Pro is actually great. It's awesome. It's-- - It's on the coverage graph. - It's a hooker with superpowers. - It's like 5.99. It's really thick. It's like a 20-minute read. And it's a one-shot, really self-contained. It's awesome. - Garthenist at his best. Garthenist is the dude who did Preacher. He's doing the boys now. - He's doing Max Punisher. He's great. Like, you can-- - I love the book is from neck down. It's like a superhero. - A hot superhero chick. - Yeah, that's so funny. I love the-- I love the-- I mean, it's about a hooker superhero. And by the-- Yeah. - Dude, I don't know if he's a kid. - Well, yeah, she has a kid. - Oh, okay. - She has a kid. And it's-- And by the end, the last page, you realize-- the whole thing is just like, OK, this is kind of silly. But by the end, you're like, holy shit. This is like the biggest critique of like the Justice League ever, because every one of those guys has like a satire Justice League type character or power. It's like, that's awesome for that. - I remember that Mr. Golden. - Yeah, you guys should actually check that out. That is the best part though. Superman guy blows his load, shoots the wing off a plane. - That's so good. So we got a review here from one of our geeks capest. His name is Will. He goes to Snake on the forums. You guys may have seen him around. He reviewed the Ant-Man series, which is a series that it's only up to issue seven. It's a brand new Ant-Man. It's not the guy that we all know. And it's kind of a mixed book. It's Roger Kirkman, Robert Kirkman, and his writing. And who's the artist on this? He did the-- no, he did the Kevin Smith Green Arrow. You got it. He's got like a really cool style. - Yeah, yeah. I don't know. - This is his review. And thank you so much Will for the review. And if anybody wants to write reviews for the show, because I can't cover everything on my paycheck. He says, "Deemed the world's most unlikeable superhero, Robert Kirkman's irredeemable Ant-Man is one of the most entertaining and unique Marvel books out there. It's been getting flack, but I actually love it as well. It follows the story of a former shield agent, Erica Grady, who, as the title suggests, is a total dick. A Grady achieves everything from stealing the Ant-Man suit, from his dead friend's back, off of his friend's back, sleeping with the guy's girlfriend on his grave. True. That happened issue three. Kirkman always manages to make Eric do himself on the run, Eric hides from shield by exploiting women. He attempts to get laid by flaunting his suit and is able to shrink and watch the women shower, which he seems to do in every issue. He uses the suit to his advantage. That's pretty sick, though. It's like being invisible. Yeah. Last month. Last month. It's just, like, fly experiences of being-- That's exactly what you would do as a superhero. Dude, Paul, you wouldn't do one of those things. How dare you? There was justice to be had. Last month, while scoping out a new girl to stay with, Eric accidentally tumbled into the purse of Ms. Marvel to his dismay. Eric, in issue seven, the world's most shameless tie-in, the mighty Ant-Man. Eric finds himself first in a shield hell of carrier, and then right in the middle of a battle taking place in mighty Avengers number one. Can my assistant-- [INTERPOSING VOICES] Has to shut the alarm up in there. The authority is coming in to-- It's Chris Hanson, the Baron. It's Chris Hanson is coming in. And sorry, Will, for interrupting your review with this. Vijay actually has blood coming out of his ears. Wow, that is-- Is that too bad? Is that actually sad? How is that? Vijay, can you hear her? No, is that all right? Whoa, I think he's dead. With the combination of smart humor and action, Kirkman can make you enjoy reading a book about a jerk in an Ant-Man suit. Who isn't even a superhero? Yeah, that's actually pretty hard to pull off. The art also really fits the book, sharply angle, sharp angles, heavy lines, and clean Phil Hester. His artwork strongly reflects the tone of Kirkman's writing. Plus, he actually makes the Ant-Man suit look cool. Hester doesn't get enough credit for what he's done with the title. Overall, the book won't change your life, but it's a nice break from the rest of the stuff that's going on right now. That's a lot of the stuff Kirkman does, though, isn't it? It's not like, all right, this is the best thing I've ever read, but it's just like, OK, you know what? I would recommend this. It's pretty good. Yeah, Kirkman is fun. Yeah, he's very solid, but he's not amazing. We were talking about Marvel zombies on the way over, which is a great B-comic. Yeah, yeah, that's amazing. Or the Marvel characters all become zombies. Oh, really? Yeah, each other. And they take down to the lactose. Oh, that's awesome. It's awesome. Yeah, it's so good. Kirkman has a lot of fun writing that one. Yeah, like, it turns out Peter Parker ate Aunt May and Mary Jane, and he's going through all this stuff about it. What do you say, Aunt? What's that, Aunt? Do you say, do you say, Aunt? Yeah, I do say. You say, Aunt, Aunt is a creature. It's not someone you're related to. You say, Aunt, Aunt, Aunt? Let me say, Aunt. What are you with? Aunt, ah. Where are you from? I'm in the minority, apparently, Boston, and then San Francisco. We're in Boston. I don't know what Jamaica planes. I'm Lawrence. Right. Look at you. Nice. Why don't you make up? I actually read a really good book, Joss Whedon, television writer behind Buffy and Firefly and all that, took over writing Runaways. Oh! If you guys have heard a bunch of noise on this show about Runaways and you want the jumping on, this is the jumping on. It's a really solid issue. Really? And it catches you up. They switch artists? They switch artists in the Runaways. What do you think? A lot of young kids with superpowers, whose parents were villains and they find out their parents are villains and have to take them down. John Jett was in that group. No. Yeah. Yeah. Now they're in New York City and they're making a deal with the kingpin so that they can operate. Yeah. You're like, wait. What? Heroes making a deal with the kingpin? What's going on here? You got to read the issue. The writing is just as solid as you'd expect from Joss Whedon. And it's actually a really fun read. So if you guys have been waiting to jump on the Runaways, jump on it. What about the Air Demonable Ant-Man and what a Dickey is? I got to give a shout out to my buddy Mike Dolce, who I met him at-- remember the dude at Wizard World? Oh. The film Fest? Oh, OK. Yeah. Right, OK. I met this dude when Gay by Dawn was playing at the Wizard World film Fest in LA. Another movie I attempted to make, like, a grind house. Gay by Dawn. Cool. Gay by Dawn? Yeah. I came home after grind house and wrote a bunch of ideas for the Gay by Dawn feature down. If you don't mind me saying so, it was as talky as a quin Tarantino picture. It actually was. It was. You got mad. So right back at you. I will make the feature less talky. A lot of action. A lot more gay. A lot more gay. Yeah. A lot more gay. There will be a lot of gay. More grunt, less talk. Can you-- you can't say that one. I just couldn't afford to do a lot of sequences in the movie. I made it for, like, five grand. I couldn't afford it. Neither couldn't win. This dude Mike, he did a movie called The Sire. I don't know what you're talking about. If you need gay actors, you can-- Oh, I'm not going to talk about The Monster, I'm Garrett. The monster in game it on, it's amazing. It's so good. And the one liner. Have you hired the Steve Katani dancers for this? No. He was in a small, little Grunhouse trailer called, "Pecis for the Pure." What's it called? "Pecis for the Fuhrer." Have you seen the grunts? It's a chisel, please. It's great. Steven hadn't directed it. The great filmmaker Steven had. And then asked Steve Katani stars in it. If you guys haven't seen-- I want to see that. Oh, no. Rodriguez, we didn't even talk about this. Rodriguez put on this contest for Grunhouse. I actually saw-- OK. This is great. Did you see Cannibal Hookers of Hollywood? I did. Eddie Vegas stars him. Yeah, Eddie Vegas. The well, not Eddie Vegas. The guy is multi-talented. Eddie Vegas. I went to a film school with him, too. I think that the authorities are attacking him. I think-- hold on one second. Will my assistant-- Did you ever come back down? No. No. My assistant-- [INTERPOSING VOICES] Yeah. For those of you who can't-- For those of you who can't hear what we keep getting distracted by-- Oh. There's this high-pitched sound that sounds like the kind of sounds that kills-- Close it out, Rose. Close it out. I just want to give a cool shout out. The coolest thing about this book, Mike, that you wrote, and you guys can check it out. It's published by Aftershock Comics, it's self-published. Look it up. I know Diamond distributes it. You can also go to mikebooks.com. The coolest thing about this character is that he doesn't want to be a hero like the man. Like Ant-Man. His suit makes him. So he'll be in a fight with some supervillains and be like, this sucks. I'm running away. And the suit will make him do it. You know what I mean? It's like a Steve Martin character. You remember the man with the screaming brainer, the dude with the-- It's like the-- The man with the two brains. The suit makes him fight crime, and he's held hostage by it. So it's called the Sire, mikebooks.com. I enjoy that part of the story. And yeah, I think mike is going to be a really good writer. You can tell he's starting out, but hell, he can write a comic book better than me any day. And the artwork's good. And yeah, that's comics. Really quick. You guys don't play video games. So the video game section is going to be really short today. I am back on Xbox Live. Geekscave.net is my Xbox gamer tag. That's a capital G, a capital D, and a capital N. Geekscave.net, I'll pass it on the screen. I'm just like, where are the caps in that? And real quick, I played Crackdown. I love it, but it's an older game, so I'm not going to review it. The cool news is this. With the Transformers movie coming out, they got the original voices for Megatron and Optimus Prime to be in the Transformers game. It's pretty sweet. It's awesome. It's pretty sweet. Peter Cullen does Optimus Prime. They got him to voice it in the movie, Michael Bay's movie. But now he's doing the video game. And now the original Megatron is doing it in the video game. Nice. So I'm really excited to actually see the game. Hopefully it's better the other one that came out the other video game. So that's video games. This coming weekend, after the posting of this issue of this episode, there's a Mario Kart tournament that the scapists are throwing. Really? Yeah. On the DS, you can play Mario Kart over the internet. You know the Nintendo DS, I put him on the right now. This is a Game Boy game. And if you guys want to get it on the Mario Kart tournament, Vijay will get it on this? Not yet. Not yet. Vijay cheats. He just said we'll see. He puts the cheat codes into the game. Dude, he'll kick your ass. Go check out the forums at Kickscape.net. And that's all the video games we can really talk because they'll be playing more next week. Guys. I don't know much about this. But is it out of line to ask if there's a difference between Miss Pac-Man and Pac-Man? Miss Pac-Man is faster. Faster. Okay. I think that's it. I think the maps are different. And maybe they enjoy different fruits at the end of every level. She seems to be more of a money-grovingism. This is more. This is Pongstopopula. This is what? Pongstopopula. Is what? Pongstopopula. Yeah. Pong is popular. It is now called Wii Tennis. Wii Sports Tennis. Did you get a heart play in that today here? No comment. Okay. I actually hit Laura and I was broke her arm. Really? The recap. Grindhouse good. Halloween. Interesting. Mondo Lucha Gogo. That up. Notch. Awesome. A bunch of movie news. A bunch of comic noise. A little bit of video games. But that's our show guys. Again, the book is called Mondo-- I'm sorry, I came in-- Mondo Lucha of Gogo. Oh, wait. One last plug. We're playing at the Malibu International Film Festival and Newport Beach Film Festival. And if anybody's in Palm Beach, Florida, it's playing down there as well. The name of the movie is Morning Fall. And it's playing this weekend in Malibu in the following weekend. Bloody big. Yeah. Well, he was an influence. You guys have a really close counterpart. So you would think that maybe you guys are the same character, but I know them personally they are not. I borrowed his jacket for this. And so here's the book. That's the episode, guys. Check out geekscave.net, make a profile, submit some news, enjoy the website, talk on the forums. Take you, Edo. Rock on. Thank you. Take care, guys.
