If you're like me and you want to reduce your ping time and get faster speeds in Fortnite that you play every day, you can go to expressvpn.com slash RTTV and you can get that ping way down. My name is Keri Chakras and I am joined on this week's episode. Of I Have Notes, the show with people with a surprisingly... Why did we make it so long, Yissa? People with IMDb pages. Yissa, hello. It's me, Yissa. I'm trying to break a record for a worst intro. Oh, okay, okay, I get it, I get it. Joined with us today. Our lovely Erin. Erin. Back again, let's go. Hello, hello. And also, I'm hello, a Jordan. Our Fortnite expert. I feel like every time I'm on this, you guys make the intro worse. Yeah, it's a, I'm trying to... It's a thing. We only make it bad when you're in Jordan. What point do we just give up on it and do something easier? What about me not memorizing it after almost 30 episodes? Sounds like I haven't given up on it already. And instead, we just want to make a hilarious bit about me being subpar as a host. I think you're a great host, Kari. I think something IMDb. Something, something. We have IMDb pages. They are sometimes long, sometimes short. Who knows? I'll never tell. This week is a possibly disturbing thing in our notes. I'm sure it will turn out great. It just says, ESA had a dream. And ESA, I would love to know more about your dream. Welcome to I Have Dreams. Welcome to I Have Dreams. So I have a dream. I had a dream. Feel free, but BTDubbs, if you guys want to join and chat right now, first members can join the chat. Kari and I have our eyes on it, so. I'm not a good host, I forgot. I'm not a good host, I forgot. I mean, we already established that. Yeah, that's right. The podcast is called, I Have Notes For A Reason. I have notes for every, yes, it's true. You have notes on my hosting. And then. So if you guys also want to comment on my dream, feel free, I will call you up. Do it. So I had a dream last night. It's like those kind of dreams where it's, two different scenes happened and it was like kind of like inception where it kind of just like cuts into another one, but you understand like for some reason there is this weird through line. So one part of my dream, it was like this really large extended version or expanded version of the house I grew up in. It's like every room for some reason had like their own living room and like a clock, walking closet kind of a thing, even though my house was not that large. That sounds like you grew up in a bougie house. In my dream. Yeah. Okay. So there's like a whole group of people like hanging around, but it was like really sad and morose. And I remember thinking like, oh, something had happened to like my sister's friend and we were all kind of gathered around. So for some reason, instead of just talking to my sister who was like right next to her computer or who was on her computer, right next to me, I decided to a AOL instant message her and ask her, like I booted up my old computer and everything. Did you have to log on? Yeah, it was already, it was, oh, what was it? It like already, it started on computer starts. So it kind of- Of course, yeah. Of course, because that was a default setting you had, right? And I messaged her like, hey, what happened to your friend even though she was right next to me? And she goes, oh, they passed away. And so I was like, oh, that's why everyone's sad. And you did it, and you did like a sad, sad, a frown face. She was just like, mm. Digital hugs. So my dream cuts to like, I'm in like a really lavish hotel. And it was, it's almost like I'm, like it was like almost White House-sized, right? Because this comes into play later. So like I'm going into this elevator and my SO suddenly comes running behind me and they go, we have to run. So I'm like, okay, I understand. I'm being chased by something now. So we go down the elevator, we leave. And it's like, like I said, White House-sized, it's huge. Like there's all these like big, like is a big building behind us. I think there's some like big structures or whatever. The lawn is really green. There's some like large stairs and stuff. And suddenly all of these agents, like people in these like suits come running out, like trying to capture my SO and me. And they come out of every corner. It's just like, oh crap. I thought that we were safe, but we weren't. And so when they think, when we think they finally got us, like they have us and they're like, they have our hands tied behind our backs. Suddenly a person comes and it's like some kind of zombie monster. And it turns out, it was my sister's dead friend. Oh man, I was waiting for this to come back. Yes, so I'm just like, oh shit, what the hell? Like they were helping us. Or well the dead friend was helping us by like eating all of these food so we can go away. And then we turn and we're like, who could have freed her? Who could have done this? And Alec comes, Barack and Michelle Obama. Hell yeah. I was waiting for like, where's the political like undertones were coming from? Oh my God, they would be so good in a zombie movie. And the kids, I see, they're kids behind them and for some reason they're dragging like a bag. I don't know, I have no idea. A bag of all the zombies they've taken care of. Hey, maybe. No, they're allies of the zombies. They want to keep all this in the bags. Oh, the secret surface, I don't know. Let's say candy. Let's say candy. What were you going to say, Jordan? So snacks for later. I'm not going to say what I was thinking. Like it was an individual. I got you, I got you. So I think how it ended was I think we understood that Barack and Michelle were sacrificing their lives for us as long as we took care of their kids. Like we had to run away with their kids. So we just keep looking back and Barack and Michelle are just standing there solemnly as they like watch the zombie like care. He like cocks a shotgun and looks over his shoulder one last time and is like, make sure you take care of Sasha and Malia. He's just one word. Just hope. So, you know what this means? Hang on, so 24. I would say let's go ahead and call it. That means Isabeliola 2032. You've been spared because you must run for president. I think that's that's a good time for you to get some more experience, but so come in as like the young scrappy one that's like, she's going to take she's going to take the White House by storm. By zombie storm, by zombie storm. Oh, your has to be your zombie friend. Oh, I was good. I was like, oh, man, I regret to inform you guys. I was not born here, so I cannot be president. It doesn't matter. Just going to put the there are a lot of people who run for president is true. I've got no jokes. Cruises Canadian. John McCain was born in Panama. You know, it's even for president. I feel like we're like a couple of years away from everybody's being like, short snaker can run. It's fine. Oh, God. Man, that would have been so cool. I live in California when he was governor. It was a weird time. It was. Did did did. Yeah, I guess like what what felt different? I like did it. It was just weird to see him like come out and be on the news and be like, California is powerful state. We will unite and then like, oh, man, remember, you know how wildfires are a fucking thing? Oh, yeah. There is one year where where San Diego was especially affected and he went to like a Chargers game back when they were still in San Diego. And it was just a clip of him like trying to rally everyone. He's just like, go, just go. Yeah. That my entire reason for that is the governor of our state. Yeah, I just want to get the Impression Nation out. That's yeah, that's that's what all this is for. Well, he said that I'm real listening. I like that your your dream has set up in payoffs. Yeah, it has a very good narrative structure to it. Yeah, that's good. I always remember those specific ones because I'm always really confused. And, you know, the good thing, too, is that, like, you know, you know, the art team can probably reuse a lot of assets with the the Secret Service. Oh, yeah, the zombies. Yeah, the zombies, you know, we could probably just get some variants. I mean, like, I think it's a pretty economic story. Well, that's something that's really important. Um, yeah. So when we go to animate this, it'll be great. Yeah. Yeah. That being said, Obama is SAG, so we'll have to kind of deal with that. Yeah, we'll have to get an impersonator. Yeah. And I don't I don't. Are there any Obama impersonators? Yeah, on TikTok. I don't know. I don't know. I mean, Jordan did it pretty good. There's there's this one. I don't have to get into TikTok, TikTok, I guess. But there's this one guy that does the best Trump and Biden impressions like I've ever heard. If you're looking away, it's it's all like you later. It's crazy. Sorry. This is not relevant or good to bring up on a show just because it's I'm just talking to y'all at this point. How do you do an impression of Biden anyway? He's like some milk toast regular guy. You close your eyes, you're putting on glasses and you kind of do the hey, bud. You just kind of like a bunch of malarkey. Yeah, I mean, I'm not doing it. But that's it's it's pretty yours is bad. Yeah, no, it is. I mean, that's why I'm not doing it. It's short bursts. It's short bursts. I see. Yeah. Yeah. And it's a lot. It's a lot of not understanding things because he's old. Is a lot of most of what the jokes are. Gotcha. There's this guy. He's got this entire narrative about Trump trying to sneak back into the White House. He'll knock on the door like I've got some. I'm just a little girl selling Girl Scout cookies for the mere price of the White House. It's stupid. Just let me in. Yeah. It's a tough year. I mean, like, take. Take talk is interesting. It's funny to go back and look at how impersonations of presidents change over like the course of like them running to them being president on SNL. If you look at early Obama, I think I want to say Fred Armisen was playing him. That sounds right. It was all very. It was very slow and calculated, which is like the only thing they had on him at the time because he was still kind of like unknown. And then like by the time his like presidency is ending, it's who was the guy who was doing him a lot? Was it was it was a J Faro? J Faro, maybe it might have been J Faro at the end. But yeah, at the end, it was like we had so much more of a caricature and he was trying faster, but he was just cooler, you know, basically. My one of my like favorite things ever is like all of the videos of like Obama giving like way less of a shit in his like last year and just making like a lot more jokes. And like he and Biden did like a bunch of videos together. It was. Yeah, there's like. Wasn't he on like between two ferns? Yeah, he was. It's a. See, this is nice political talk or not. We're just I win. I'm just going to put the little text under you with an eye that's like, some people have said maybe that's not true. Hey, guess what was this last weekend that is only a positive thing? Extra life. We did it. We did it over. We have a very new and interesting way. Yeah, it was interesting. I actually was able to go in for it. Yeah, tell us about your experience, Kerry, like behind the scenes, I want to know. I can't touch anyone. Underestimated how overwhelmingly nice it would feel to be around people. Oh, oh, I'm so jealous. We were it was all like super safe. We all got like tests beforehand when we weren't on camera. We had like masks on and we're saying we're from each other. But like being on camera and then being next to people and like it's it was it was emotional, you know, it's been however many months and that was like easily the most people have been around and unprotected moments. It was it was really cool. Yeah, Cole and I did a very stupid bit that was made amazing and wonderful by Blaine and Tyler and Chad. It was a lot of fun. We basically did like live action, phasmophobia. Oh, my God, they we we we were talking about doing we were talking about playing phasmophobia. And we're talking about like, oh, should we go into the like office to play so we can be like around each other? And we're like, well, I mean, if we're just playing, we can just, you know, do it from home and then do some spooky stuff. And I was like, I mean, man, it'd be crazy. We could just like turn stage five into like a haunted house. When we can't do that, it'd be crazy. And then like Blaine and Chad went quiet and just started talking on their own and they like orchestrated the whole thing. Oh, my God. It was a lot of fun. Oh, I think it's going to be up possibly like Thursday or so on the website. We'll see. But we two spooky is still dead. It was 2 p.m. spooky. Very different, very, very different, very different. I mean, biggest difference. I wasn't fucking trashed out of my mind. From 2 to 4 a.m. So that part felt great. Especially on Sunday, it felt very good in that it had no impact on me whatsoever. Look, look, look at that. Look at that. And we raised over a million dollars still. A million dollars in half the time. Yeah, it was it was awesome. It was it was really cool to see every come together. And yeah, and Aaron, you you contributed something for the auction. I did. It's still up. You have still up. Yeah, you have until Friday to bid on some original sketches. Don't drop it. So we got a ruble. We got a ruble. Oh, it's really hard to do this in the camera. We got a blocky and a blocky. What? Young. And it's currently the current. It's a pretty low price right now, right? Pretty low for these babies. You can get like yours for ten twenty five or I think that's the current number. So it's over one thousand dollars, one thousand dollars, one thousand dollars, which is crazy. And I feel very caring. Can you hold that back up again? Because you you you don't you you always talk bad about yourself. What you're holding in your hand is something you created and is worth a thousand dollars now. So it's worth a thousand dollars, a thousand. It's worth a thousand because somebody thinks it is. And we appreciate that. And it's for the kids. Yeah, that's bad. You can still you can still bid on those. If you're like a thousand, how about two thousand? If you want to be really nice. Yeah, it's all going to change. So yeah, I will say draw them. Yeah, I didn't have the most time to spend on them. But don't don't. Aaron, they're good. Stop it. The one thing that one thing we think you're talented. OK, except our praise. I accept the thank you. Save it later. It's something weird about eBay. So if you if you go to the page, be warned because we scroll down. It recommends auctions that other people who have bid it on the current auction. I'm sure they're all very there and relatable. People have some interesting tastes. I'm learning now. Yeah, so just be warned. There is some some. I'm going to I'm going to go to the page. Some literal titty milk. There is a boob in the jar. Yeah, I am warning you now. I don't. This is based off of what other people have been looking at, not me. So before anybody's like, Aaron, those are based off of your previous wings. They're based off of other people's. So all right, here's my blind reaction. I'm scrolling down. OK, I'll take a picture or something. I'm here. This one doesn't make sense in a second. Jordan, do you have Jordan's reaction? Do you see it? Are you you're getting the same thing, right? Yeah. Yeah. What the fuck is wrong with y'all? I like this. Both of y'all are dirty birds. I like this apple drawing. This is everything else. That wasn't there the other day. Jordan, be careful. If you turn your head, it might turn into like a vagina or something. Like it might be like an apple at this angle, but like something else at that angle. Oh, no, it's weird. How's it's they have to be by the same artist because it's so themed. Somebody has a very specific kink. And they also really like closing this. Yeah. Sorry. I regret. That's your warning. Just don't scroll down. Just don't scroll down. Every everything you need is at the top of that page. Yeah, exactly. Or thank you again. Oh, oh, every everything you want is at the bottom of that. I should say it's not only going for a dollar forty two. So that's pretty good. It's not ruby ruby. Titty milk. It's just some random woman. Issa is. Issa, do you have notes? She shook. I like how she is like physically zooming in with her head to look at the. You look like the first. You look like a teenager who just discovered the categories tab on porn. You're like, wait, what? People do this. They did what with their what? With who? I just want to know without detailing it too much. Why is the one with in the titty milk? I don't know. Oh, yeah, I don't know anything about that kind of stuff. Anyway, tell us. Actually, I don't watch hentai. Sorry. It's not even hentai. It's like live action like woman. Yeah. Oh, oh. So interesting. Will, yeah. Sorry, I had a positive. That because there's a spider that's been living in my office and it just it's it's peeking out. He's like, hmm. Yeah, yeah, you're looking at what you're talking about. He wants to be invited. What can I look at with my with my many, many eyes? My two dollars. Oh, huh. Interesting. OK, where's this part? This is the first time I'm not a big fan of bugs. This is the first time I've like seen a bug and was just like, all right, go ahead and chill. That's fine. So it's a new experiment. And he is I did kind of say he moved into my window. That's right there. And he's been chilling there. Pain rent. That's been chill. He he is now venturing out what I would consider into my property. He's on my property line. He's in my yard. And I'm not a fan of that. So I don't want bugs. No, I don't want to do a murder on on live. Get a little cup and escort him out. We have a lot of lower thirds. We have a world star lower third. Can we can we throw that up? I just squished this fucking spider. No, he like he. OK, he went behind my guitar amp. Just get my thing later. Yeah, Ash is going to get a snack. That's my thing with bugs is like a long time ago. I kind of came to terms with the fact that. I assume that behind every wall. It's filled with bugs. Oh, yeah. 100 percent like packed with bugs. That's not my wall, baby. Sure, sure, Jordan. Sure. I've got I've got wall technology. Yeah. Yeah. All you're doing is teaching them. They're learning from your technology. All right. They will overcome snacks. Y'all, y'all. Oh, that's a segue. It is. I saw it and I took it. What the fuck is bug snacks? I keep seeing people talk about it and I go, oh, oh, Erin. You're going to have to explain it to all of us, Carrie. Oh, even I don't have a sweet summer child. Bug snacks. Is interesting. I'm a preface of saying when I the first 20 minutes I played of this game that I got for free because it's it's like the PlayStation Plus free game for the PS5. I hated it. But then I kept going and now I love it. And that's my lesson that I'm imparting to you all is sometimes you really, really hate something, but then you'll like it. What changed? Brave, brave words. I think, Jordan, I think what changed was I fed a a sentient burger to a bear and the burger became the bear's arm. That's what changed for me. Oh, that's what changed for me. Yeah. OK. Yeah. So bug snacks is it's made by the same team that did Octodad, which I also didn't know at first. And this is like a weird thing to say. But like once I knew it was them, there was a couple of things about the like, I don't even say like level of polish, but like kind of like where they put their effort into that started to make more sense to me and felt more like a style. But regardless of that, you basically you're you're like a reporter who has gone to this island to research like this like adventurer and you get there, you're playing crashes and you find out she's gone missing. The the village has everybody's like left it. And you kind of like bring everybody back together to recreate Snackburg, obviously. And the the gameplay is basically Pokemon Snap. Pokemon and. That like one episode of Futurama, where they go to the island and they find like the creatures they can eat. And then it turns out to be like eggs of another one. I don't know how far it goes. That call it crumples. The it's it's the the Omicron Persia is the system. Yeah, but like they call them something ploppers ploppers. Yeah. Yeah. So basically, like you there's a bunch of these little creatures and they're literally it's like a little burg and his name's like Bunger and you just like he walks back Bunger Bunger Bunger Bunger and you take a picture of them and it tells you how to catch them. And you have like a trap or you have like a slingshot. You have a net. So like every area has like like these bug snacks you can get. And then you the bears and stuff you have to like convince them to come back. It's fucking weird because you could basically turn the bears into food items. And there's like a mystery. And like you get in and you think it's just like cute kids game. And then all of a sudden, like maybe someone's dead. Good Lord. I would have not picked this up from just looking at the images. Right. Are you sure? And then there's like your dream. I don't know. I'm checking for images. And I found a meme of the the Chad versus the the version. So it's the the Virgin Miles Morales in the new Spider-Man game. Chad Bugsnax. Oh my God. It's pretty good. Is it like a green bear, dude? No, it's a purple. What the fuck is this thing? Wallers. I don't know what this is. Oh, I don't even. It's it's fucking buck wild, y'all. It's very good. Oh, wow. I see that. I see that now. Yeah, I think that's the adventure you're looking for. Interestingly enough, though, I am. I want to talk about it. I have a PS5. I am. I had a point where I got mad at myself because I was playing Spider-Man Miles Morales and I was like, this is amazing. This is very good. It's a good game. Everything about this is awesome. I am still thinking about the bugs, creatures, maybe I'll pause Spider-Man and go play Bugsnax. And like, when I got to that point, I was like, oh, I'm mad at myself, but I am going to not kink shame myself or game shame myself. People like what they like. And if they like Bugsnax over what other people would consider a better game, you know, that's sometimes sometimes you want to get a trophy by collecting all of the memories of you and your friend. And then sometimes you want to get a trophy by feeding a burger, fries and soda to a character. And and you get a you turn them into a combo, you know. We all have different things we like. It's free. It's got to get yourself a PS5. Is it PS5 exclusive? No, it's on PS4 as well. And PC. What the fuck am I doing? Yeah. Yeah. Hey, hey, real quick. Hey, real quick, real quick, real quick. This is not entertaining in any way whatsoever. Hollow Knight is the PlayStation 4 free game for the month is one of the best games of all time. That's it. There's nothing else like I don't have a story. It's just that wasn't funny. I know. No, I know. I thought you were going to do an ad or eat on. Jordan, have you been listening? What part's been funny so far? Part where Barack Obama showed up. That was OK. You know what? That was pretty good. Do you remember that really good Joe Biden impression I did, too? No, when was that? I remember you doing a impression. I don't remember a good one. Hang on, hang on. Malarkey, that's it. Whoa, Mr. Mr. O Biden, I think he might like it if he got called Mr. Obama from time to time. I think he would take that as a sign of respect. Oh, that's really funny. So there's a thing on here. I think, Erin, you put it on speaking of. My segue to this. Yeah, go ahead and just try to segue. Well, I'm not going to segue to that quite yet, but I'm going to segue to the thing that I think will segue to the thing you're talking about. You know, there's definitely a huge team size difference right between Spider-Man, Miles Morales and Bugsnax. Somebody posted something here about a game that was made by like one person. Yes. And it looks very good. So good friend and previous concept artist for Ruby, Scott linked me to this because I am very into anime aesthetic games or like 3D anime and all that bullshit. Yeah, like Bugsnax. Exactly. My favorite Crunchyroll's new anime Bugsnax. A new game called Barbarian. And it's like it's not a beat them up or like a fighting game. You did say Barbarian, but with these instead of bees, right? Yes. Oh, I see. I would not have made that connection. I was like, me too, honestly. Why is it called very, very in because I heard you say Barbarian, but then I'm Barbarian and I went, wait a minute. It all makes sense. Yeah. Well, you're a director, Kerry. I don't know enough about it to know if it actually makes sense. No, that's like the aesthetic of the game or like right. I just don't know what Barbarian, like, I don't know why it's bees. Why is it bees when we already have a bee making up words? Like that's true because they do have some of the best titles. That's literally it. Anyways, it's this game of game with cat boys and cat girls. It has like this like Barbarian aesthetic. I don't know. I just think it looks cool. And it's interesting. One person looking at the. Yeah, looking at the trailer, it looks like and this is not like trying to make fun of it or a negative critique. If you have notes, you could. It looks like it looks like concept art fighting each other. Yeah, but it looks good, though, if that makes sense. Yeah, it looks like each pose. It's very snappy animation from like, yeah, for each move. And it just looks like a concept pose from like one pose to another. And like, it's very good. Yeah. Yeah. It's tasty. And of course, it's incredible. Cat boys and cat girls. I mean, what what more could you ask for? This game was made for me. Is it is it out? No, just the first trailer. I don't know. OK. Slated to come out, but it's being made by one person. So we take take your time. Yeah, I just want to I just want to know like who how. How are they doing this? It looks good. Yeah, they will make a game by themselves astound me. Yeah, like Toby Fox making Undertale. And yeah, even like that first chapter of Delta Rune, he put out like how long ago was that two years ago? Because it was like two years ago. Yeah, I remember playing that at work. Oops. I was right next to you when it happened. Yeah, I couldn't stop playing. It was so cool. But yeah, I mean, like just like coming up with like the concept and executing it and like doing everything from like the writing to the music is crazy. I don't know how people do it. Yeah. And this is like a 3D game. So it's like you did the models, the animation, like the character design, the environments like, holy shit. So so now speaking of taking your time in things that. Are by one person, but not all you care. What's the talk about this? I mean, I want to. I think we're going to talk about a trailer. We are going to be professional. And we're going to be fair. Yes. And and someone else should talk about it. Yeah, this is Carrie is saying these things deliberately because he's like trying to control and hold back because. Yes. OK, so YouTube channel, Crunchyroll Connect Collection put out a trailer for a show called X-Arm, a crunchy roll original official trailer. This was posted on November 6th. Currently, it has 1.8 thousand likes and 20,000 dislikes. That's that's what the kids call getting ratioed. I believe that is the definition of ratioed. Yes, if you look up ratio in the dictionary, you just get that. Yeah. Yeah. So it's a very promising idea, I think, a very positive idea. It's admirable that they are putting a foot forward. It's a getting. I can see what they're going for. They they have a vision and they want to do something cool. It's just unfortunately the execution is lacking. I wouldn't say visually it looks bad, like every frame like you pause. Well, this is some cool, like. Like after fact stuff going on. It's just mostly the animation is very slow and weird. Yeah, so it lacks a lot of weight. Like I've heard a lot of people jokingly say, oh, if you watch this at two times speed, it's it's it looks good. I don't know. It also I can't glean any information on what the show is about in this single trailer. Yes, well, apparently it's based off of a manga, which I didn't know. It's a reading that it just cuts back from like some people fighting and then robots. I mean, don't seem connected at all. Do you need more to be interested in the show? Me personally, yes. OK, that's fine. That's fine. That's fine. We're all different. We all have different eBay searches, you know? So apparently we all have the same eBay search and and I think something that made a lot of people really scratch their heads is this note at the end of the trailer. That's what got me declaring war against all of the SF series around the world SF stand for sci-fi science fiction. San Francisco. Yeah, that's the only one I can think of. San Francisco. You know, they're not coming for San Francisco. They're coming for all San Francisco based series. I believe they're talking about science fiction, which would range. Yeah. Very broadly. I had a list. I had a list of what SF could possibly be. So I have sci-fi. OK. San Francisco. My my SO said Street Fighter. OK. Oh, there's some street fights going on. That makes sense. Street fights, yes. Sayonara friend, secondary finalist. OK, we're reaching the bottom of the barrel. Yes. Yeah, I think that's when I stopped, but I was really trying to. Sandwich fixings, sandwich fixings. I don't know a lot of sandwich fixings series around the world. I got some cool ones to show you. There's there's got to be at least one episode of Food Wars about sandwiches. And they're coming for you. I watched all food. If you get a chance, watch, watch the trailer. Oh, no, I just paused at right after I said, like, some frames look good. I just pause and I see an animation error. It's a complete error. Yeah. Should we talk about why we all make mistakes? It looks like real people will learn things after we say something. I found an article on Anime News Network. That it kind of talks about the series a little bit. It does look like, I mean, you know, the the director, the writer, the person doing the musical score and the studio all seem fairly new to animation. The one of the key points I kind of talked about is the director, I guess, is actually, you know, pretty well known for doing writing and directing live action television. So I believe live action television. Interesting, live action television. Yeah, so I believe the thought was, you know, they're using motion capture in 3D, so somebody with live action experience will be able to come in and do something new and interesting, which I think there's merit to. Yeah. But I look, all I want to say is I get shooting for the stars and not getting there. And I mean, you know, if people had just watched like the first episode of Ruby and been like, eh, and we may not be here today doing this. So I get it. For me, it comes down to what you were talking about. The two big things for me are nothing about that trailer actually told me anything about the show. And I don't know how serious they were or not, but the whole declaring war and all signs, I would not do that. Yeah, they're coming for everybody. Unless I have something to do with with the story and it's not like a meta thing where like the story has to do with declaring war on other series. Yeah, which I don't think it does. Yeah, it could be. It's interesting that like a live action person working on this, like you saying that it's something kind of makes sense to me. But I'm also simultaneously disappointed that somebody enters a new medium and doesn't take advantage of what that medium offers, which would be making this not look like it's live action. Like everyone moves like people, you know, it's slow and like deliver. Like the main character literally doesn't emote. Take out frames and like make him like snappy and do crazy stuff. Like, yeah, it's a little it's disappointing when when something doesn't like take full advantage of their tools and, you know, the capabilities of the medium. Well, I think, you know, when you do kind of like cross medium stuff like that, like I do think it's interesting. The idea of like take somebody from live action and put them in animation and see what they do. It's still animation first, you know, it would it would be. Just as strange and weird as somebody from animation went to go direct a live action thing and they asked all the actors to, you know, move on tos or like hit pose. You know, I mean, like it just it doesn't. You have you have to take the actual medium into consideration. So I don't know I. I like I said, I don't want to be too mean about anything. The Internet is doing plenty. Yeah, it's already but I think more than interesting. This is a good like example of like just seeing how some things don't hit the mark, you know, and why that happens. Like the low hanging fruit here is like, this looks bad. LOL. It's like, well, how did this happen? Like, what are the reasons behind it? Like, let's really let's go a little deeper and figure it out. Because, yeah, from from tip to top, this is a head scratcher. There is a learning experience. Yeah, it's a learning experience. They can learn. They can. There's so many so many things. I'm like I was rewatching the trailers. You guys are talking and I'm hello, hello. I'm glad they put the song in the top right corner. So so sorry, so it's I muted it and it's actually better if you muted the video because then you actually kind of understand you don't have this dissonance between like what you're hearing versus what you're seeing. Did you see the screenshot I posted? Discourse. Discourse. Oh, no. That looks like a layering error. Hey, you know what? That was all over Ruby Volumes 1 and 2 when I was compositing. So I'm not even for listening audience or anybody who just can't see. There's a frame where a truck is in front of a lamppost when it should clearly be behind. Look, stuff happens, man, you know. Hey, maybe it's again, maybe it's all meta. Yeah. So it's a glitch in the matrix. We're going to look really dumb when when like we're talking about the how much we're looking forward to the ex-arm season finale because it's a new show. I mean, the key doesn't look bad. Yeah, it looks promising. Like if I saw this without the context of the trailer, I'd be like, oh, neat, I probably watched it. I like Crunchyroll's originals, like Tower of God was really good. Yeah, got a high school. Awesome. Like. So you said we're is it that the. Did you not like the song? Did you feel like the song took away from it? Oh, 100 percent, because I think it was just that thing of like for when if you're you hear a trailer or song over a trailer, you kind of expect these scenes to go with the song somehow because it's symbolic or maybe like goes with the beat of the song. Once you mute the song, then I actually can because my first thought is I don't understand what's happening in the trailer, you mute the song. Then now I'm watching him like, oh, now I see what's happening. And part of it, too, is the way that they're going about some of the action scenes in here is just it's both simultaneously clear and unclear. Like I don't know what is what the characters are doing. But I mean, if you watch it like five more times, I'm like, oh, I get it. But, you know, when it's a trailer, when it's something, the big takeaway here, of course, is like you want your audience members to understand what it is from the first watch. Right. So I mean, there's a note for you. You don't want to spoil anything, but this trailer literally doesn't say anything. Yeah, I mean, it really does sound like we're analyzing that as much as maybe some of us did like the, you know, the end of Inception. So I mean, that says something. I mean, it's cause I'm thinking, right? I just saw I just watched Tenet. You want to talk about analyzing something? Oh, hello, hello. It's not even a bad song. It just it sounds like it's from like Sonic Adventures or something. And it just doesn't fit. Rolling around at the speed. Right. Oh, man, is Tenet good? We don't have to get in. George, listen. In the end, it's it's worth watching. And you're going to have questions that are like, maybe I should go back and watch it. Just know that for me personally, I thought it was a bad movie until about halfway through. OK, I can get down on that as long, like, and you don't have to say if you think if you feel like it's a spoiler, does that mean that you thought it was a good movie in the second half? I thought the second half of the movie is good. Yes. And overall, I think things things that you are wondering about, why are they doing this? What is the point of all this at the front? Ends up coming into play and kind of paying off and like being called back to in the second half, so it's like it feels like it's necessary. And it makes you want to watch it again. So you like knowing the full context, you're like, you know, it's a classic Nolan nonlinear, like, you know, like, mind her. Yeah. And once they really explain. Like, you know, like the backwards moving shit. They try to explain it in the first half and it's just like I don't really get it. And then when they really show it to you, there's like there's like a big moment, like about halfway through the movie where they really reveal what this mechanic of the movie is and how it works. And you're just kind of like, why didn't she do this like earlier? I totally get it now. And like, this is cool. Interesting. Yeah. I thought I thought that they did a pretty good job demonstrating it with Tenet being a palindrome. Yes. That was my favorite part. That was the only guy I haven't seen. Do you see Zer's asking if it's three hours, by the way? So what's funny is I saw this at a draft house and, you know, they have the limited like physical distancing. This is the first time I've been to a movie. Yeah, I was going to say, I'm surprised they're open. Yeah. The last movie I saw was Onward in movie theaters. Oh, Blue Ratatouille. That wasn't the start age. Blue Ratatouille. But she was saying, she was saying, like, it though the waitress there said it was a three hour movie. And I was like, oh, my God, it's three hours. There's going to be a long movie. I think it was like two and a half at most and it doesn't feel that long. So. OK. I mean, that that second part of that sense is important. Like, yeah, it can it can feel like a three hour movie or it can, you know, let me tell you, like you're you're thinking this is a three hour movie about like halfway into the the the first half that you think is bad. And then once it pops off, you're like, it kind of like speeds up from there. So you know, what's a two and a half to a three hour movie? Lame is a Rob that you feel the full minute for each. That's how I felt about a Spy Kids 3D. I also I wasn't three hours. I watched it twice. I feel like every time Russell Crowe sings time slows down in that movie. This is my part. Do you so this is like kind of like a kind of combo entertainment media and covid question? Is it worth trying to see in theaters? Can you even still see in theaters? Yeah, you can. I know in movies are like I saw it on Sunday. Let me tell you. We're talking about like how music influences the the whole package, you know, how everything in in the medium needs to work together, sound, vision, mixing to a certain extent. I can't understand half the dialogue in that movie. It is. Oh, they all have action. No, no, no, we need subtitles. Dude, 15 minutes into it, my wife leans over to me and she's like, I need subtitles for this movie. And I go, you know, and we're 15 minutes into it. Oh, no, it's going to be a lot. Yeah, yeah, I'll just wait until the blu-ray. Yeah, I would say you're not missing too much. OK, that's what I was going to ask. I was totally prepared to like wait for it to come on to like, I mean, I don't want to brag, but being Warner Media employees, we have access to certain things on an app, but they haven't put it up on on our screener app. Yeah, they haven't. No, they're being very protective of it. Yeah, they want people to go see it. Oh, but they'll put it in Fortnite. They want people to go see it in the theater, including Warner Media employees. I mean, I'm thinking about it. You won't regret it. That's for sure. It's a very strange, ominous story. I mean, I'm not like, boy, I wasted like going to the movie to see the theater. I risked my life to go see this movie. Yeah, I mean, it's fine. And yeah, the Dratch House is a unique experience now where like you order your food ahead of time. Yeah, they're doing that. Like, what is it? Like 10 to 15 people can like go to the theater. Oh, but there are certain I have a dollar. There are dollar minimums you have to hit. I think I think AMC is cheaper and there's no like food minimum. But then you have to go to to AMC and it's a real. It's like, it's like, yeah, it's cheaper. Oh, it's AMC. Oh, there's a reason it's like, oh, it's the draft house. But draft house at home. AMC. Yeah. You could just run out of the theater for yourself because it's only like 100 bucks. What? Yeah. Damn. There's there's no way to entire AMC theaters. A hundred dollars. Oh, it's cheaper. I'm saying $30. I'm saying draft houses. A hundred dollars. AMC is cheaper. Whoa. You don't say really? I'm going to rent an AMC and just watch TikToks on the screen at this point. You do custom. Yeah, I'm going to put an airplane to the screen and just be like, Gary, which ones are you going to put up? What kind of TikToks are you into lately? The one you were talking about before the show started. Oh, man. So there's how we ended up. Yeah, go Gary. Do I just say I want you to talk about it, but there's just this if you're not familiar with TikTok and the algorithm, you the more you like favorite or comment on on certain types of TikToks, like the more likely they will then get recommended to you because we're in the future and it's scary. So that's led to a lot of jokes of like, oh, I'm on baking TikTok now. Oh, I'm on Bugsnax TikTok now. I'm on Titty Milk TikTok now. I'm on Titty Milk. I'm on Bugsnax Titty Milk. There's the different. There's the different. And certainly, apparently, we both ended up on a TikTok that I don't think we meant to be on. I didn't know, one, it existed. And two, how I got this. Yeah, but I'm going through TikTok. Have a little time and I'm seeing I'm seeing videos of Bunny, the dog, push the buttons so that Bunny can talk who this. Yeah. Well, they stare in the mirror. Yeah. And then. Yeah, suddenly, it's like, I'm like, oh, what's this? This one looks interesting. And it's like shot out of a back of a boat, like going really fast, like an open seas. And I'm like, what's this? And then suddenly, like, there's another boat. And it's like, this boat's kind of close. And then it's like, this boat is chasing the other boat. Why are these people shouting in Spanish? Was that a gunshot? And then I look at the comments and everyone's just like, I don't know what I did to end up on cartel TikTok, but here I am. And I was telling this story while we were getting ready. And I was like, I was like the one with the boat. I don't want to be there. I'm intrigued, though. I felt like I was watching something like illegal that I shouldn't be watching, you know? I'm also I'm horrified. What else did I watch and like that TikTok thought I would be interested in watching cartel videos? Yeah. And also, why are people in the cartel or some other filming TikToks? Yeah. Why are they posting these things to TikTok? It was scary. It was genuinely scary. Yeah. I. Oh, man. It like the the like TikTok algorithm is algorithm is very scary. Yeah. I like how they had cartel TikTok, but I'm again, mentioned before the show, I've discovered borrowing TikTok, which is the nice way of saying stealing. I don't know. So stealing, not borrowing forever. Barrowing forever is like the dark side cartel. OK, so. Oh my gosh. It's the dark side of TikTok. I don't like it. No steel kids. Don't borrow without permission. I mean, what that's what I did. Can't remember who brought it up before, but it was like stealing sounds terrible. But if you say, hey, do you want to do a heist? Heist? Yeah, so it's very fun. Yeah, suddenly it's interesting. Yeah, I saw. Yeah, I saw a tweet. I think that Cole had responded to and Cole was like, I don't know. I tried to heist some candy once from a store. Yeah. Guys, can we start heist TikTok? Let's do it. Let's let's. It should just be heists like hypothetical heists that we. Yeah, we'll do two part videos. One, we we have a Reese's PCs heist where Jordan big pocket swears, throws some Reese's PCs in his hoodie pocket. But then part two, it'll be us. We then go back and and do like a what's the guy that has like so much fucking Mr. Beast and we'll give like the shop owner like a million dollars and be like here we want to buy these Reese's PCs for a million dollars and then they'll cry and everyone will be really happy. And then David Dobrik will show up with a Tesla and be like, Tesla's everybody. And they have so much money. They have so much money and they just give it away to everybody. And it's very nice. But can I get that much money? From all the heists, heists are doing. Also, Tyler Stabschluss know that he also got the cartel TikTok. So it's maybe TikTok's just trying to like gauge people's reactions to what they find interesting. FBI trying to like. Yeah, it had a lot of use and stuff. It's like, isn't that a thing with captures where like by doing captures, we're just also helping like machine learning? Oh, yeah. Maybe like the TikTok algorithm is like somebody will then comment. Here's what they said. And now somebody's translated the video for them. Interesting. Or like, I know where that is. And like the FBI said, I'm like, huh? Is the machine learner? Yeah. Teams of TikTok. Yeah, you solved another case. Gen Z stops the cartel. Yeah, we've solved the boat heists, the cartel heists. Anyways, yeah. Caesar and Chet went steal the declaration of independence as your debut. And I'm like, well, yeah, that's already been done. That's past Nicholas Cage. That's all. I feel like you could do it. He was borrowing it. Let's borrow the concept of national treasure make remake national treasure through a series of TikToks. Well, if say, say not the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution. OK, what piece of American history do you try to heist? Was Magna Carta that was British, right? That's British. Yeah, I see. I knew I was. I didn't die in America. It's like the same thing. Yeah. What about like the Liberty Bell? Oh, oh, yeah. Guys, the Statue of Liberty. Isn't isn't what if you would have the heist of the whole whole thing? I don't know. We'll never expect it. I said about Rushmore. Oh. No, they did that in the second one. That's right. They didn't heist it, but they did heist it. They went up like they went up. They go in the nose nose nose or something. Well, I'm thinking of Team America. Yeah, that's my bad. Probably that episode of Dexter's Lab, where they just yes, like put like Frankenstein sprockets on on them and like they rise up out of there. I actually don't know. I forgot about that. Yeah, like they their bodies were underneath the whole. Oh, my God. They were robots. Yeah. God, Dexter's Lab is so fucking good. Oh, my God. That's so funny. Well, with with that now that we're live, we're going to have to wrap it up. Thank you, everybody, for listening to Boy, was this an episode of Vive Notes, as always, please, please, please.
