Welcome to Nilplosh's The Glap, the early-early-morning edition for me, not so much for me. No, I get to sleep in until, well, okay, ten minutes before my alarm went off at five a.m. So that's sleeping in for me. I got up at seven, which is a solid hour, if not more like four hours before I normally get up.
I've been getting up at eight lately, but, you know, previous to the last couple of weeks, it's been more than ten. I'm just glad I remember you laundry last night, so. Okay, then. What do you mean from laundry?
I don't know what it is. Uhh, other pants? Soft. No, no socks.
I've got like a half a pack of new socks that I just, whenever I get one with a hole, I just throw it out. Yeah, so socks sound good. I just have more underwear than socks, so I always need to do socks before I get to do underwear. No, the opposite.
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. What an amazing observation we've just made about our banal wardrobe. Well, no, it's because I had a roommate, one million years ago, that literally had at least 30 days worth of clothing.
Lord. Yeah, she would only do laundry once a month, and I kind of... She was adopted and raised by a single mom, because they got divorced very shortly after she was adopted, so there was a lot of... I thought you turned off the ding.
I thought I did too. I mean, I don't mind the ding, I just thought you turned off. That doesn't matter. I don't need this open anymore.
But like I said, she had a lot of weird entitlements and abandonment issues, so her mother bought her way more than she ever should have. But like I said, she owned a solid 30 days worth of clothing, including socks and underwear, and I used to have at least 30 days worth of socks, but socks wear out a lot faster than underwear. Yeah. So I'm about 14 days worth of socks, but I have at least 45 days worth of underwear.
Okay. I don't know. I don't get dressed up like that. Never thought of it.
Never thought of it. I don't know. I have to do it often. Well, I do laundry like on the regs like every Monday or Tuesday, so...
No, I don't let you go laundry every Monday, because I only have six shekos, and I have to wash my mouth. I prefer to wash my coats every time that I wear them. I suppose it's not technically required, but you. I bet you can go every other day on something like that, depending on how you do it.
And then what I'm doing, I recently learned why pastry chefs prefer to wear white coats, and kitchen chefs prefer to wear black coats? Flower. Yeah. Because I was making dumplings, and it was just covered in flour.
And you're wearing black. Like I said, from like tip to angle, I was just covered in flour. You think powder? Pretty much, yeah.
How long has it been since I was watching powder? I don't know, but someone brought it up to me a couple weeks ago. What was the guy who was powder? Sean Patrick Flannery.
Guy from the Dax A's? Mm-hmm. Seriously? Mm-hmm.
Wow, he was a guy for a lot of me. Oh, I mentioned a lot of pancake makeup, so it pulled stuff down. He still can't get rid of eyebrows that way. Oh, God, pig eyes.
Look at those. You know, I know that you have like body dysmorphia issues. How would you be near an albino person? That's all right.
It's not... Why would I drink my body dysmorphia? Well, it's something out of the norm. No, I don't think around that.
I'm okay around that. I said I have an acquaintance that ain't got no leg. That would... That wouldn't trigger my body.
You would never know it unless I told you. I mean, he walks with a cane because he's still getting used to his prosthetic. Right. But you still never know it until he's dead.
We've talked about it before. This is a different one actually. I wasn't talking about noris. How many can unipos do you know?
Two. Why? Noris and Lawrence. I know.
Clear, right? So you later deliver to Ron? Why don't you come and send something to me? Kind of.
It's playing going back. Get it, get it, catch it. Like I said, noris lost is like due to a train hopping incident. You should have just stuck to spotting.
I was going to say Lawrence lost is like due to dumbass or even bad health. Okay. Yeah, a great picture that I'll show you later because I don't want to say it even remotely on lines. I don't want anyone who I know that could listen to this have a grade of both of those jokes spoiled.
Oh, God. It's good. Anyway, like I said, it's outside of the norm so I didn't know how you react to somebody with I'm just going to say. Oh, binos don't.
They don't freak me out. Missing limbs. Just like fingers. Missing fingers.
Weird. We had a friend that only had like two thirds. Or like when they're like curled up or like they're like half like, oh, I can't. Really have a regular that has a underdeveloped arm.
He's a super good guy. I just can't imagine that. No, I just imagine that when they're talking about your brother's body like it's a shaking handle that chicken wing or whatever that was. Never touched his stunted arm.
Sorry, that's not the proper term. I was going to say he's a really sweet guy. Oh, I'm sure they're all wonderful people, but I, okay, there was a guy in the restaurant at the day job that he was sitting weird and when I walked by. I was sitting oddly.
It looked like he only had one leg and I got. Hey, seriously, how many fucking garbage trucks have to come to the goddamn whole thing? No, I think this is a delivery because I think I heard the tell ghetto. I'm good for the sworn I heard glasses break.
Oh, it's recycling as a whole. You're right. It really? Oh, it's Whole Foods?
Not a hell of a burden. Sorry, I'm sorry, I had to make a 30-rap time. The Hearst family. Where'd you have?
Yeah. I was just listening to the text- I'm not going to learn more about her just because I thought it was such an interesting legacy to have at Brandon Bidders. Yeah. You know, I just realized like, you can't go into a place and be like, I would like a Hemingway.
All those big drinking writers don't have drinks after them. No, they basically have lifestyles. Well, it was something where the city wasn't a writer with a drinking problem. He was a drink with a writing problem.
So, in one of the old modern drunkards, I'm like, I want to say them in 90s. They might be like 96, 97. They have an article about this guy trying to avenge his brother for getting drunk onto the table by Hemingway and Hemingway just fucking destroying him. And Hemingway's secret being mixed drinks and mixing liquors.
Interesting. No, like in a drinking contest. Like he would make these crazy mixed drinks and he would also switch liquors all the time and it would make the other person just- Oh, I see the destroyed the other person. Exactly.
No, no, no. Not his secret to winning. His secret to destroying the other person. And just thinking about that, mixing drinks and mixing liquors makes me a little queasy.
Yeah. That's disgusting. Good. Yeah.
I think the last time I ended up mixing, I got like a gin and tonic after doing my usual beard and whiskey and gin and tonic just like, I don't know why did I do that. I can't do gin. It makes me so angry. It makes me angry.
I'd have a lot of it to get angry. I don't mind a gin and tonic here and there. No. So for when Andy makes him fucking ridiculous and tropical.
He doesn't want you to get malaria. Uh, Scurvy, wasn't it? Um, Quinine and Tonic is for malaria. The lives and theirs for Scurvy.
Yeah. That's where you get it from the British. Yeah. So you don't get Scurvy.
But like I said, the Quinine and Tonic was added while they were building the Panama Canal to help him back from malaria. That's my good at trivia. Yeah. Except for dark wing duck references.
Damn you, Kismoduck. You know, you don't make a duck was not terrible guess. But once again, I just wonder why you don't like call or text me because. No, because we were busy.
Honestly, I couldn't get to my phone for hours after that. It was a random conversation between the two of us. And part of it was, hey, you know, you have to let that duck sit for a minute or else it's going to melt the styrofoam. To go to containers.
Yeah, no, I got that. But like I said, it was one of those things where you're busy and you're trying to make, you know, any conversation between the two of us to make it less shitty. Right. And so of course, talk-tales came up.
Is the new one out yet? I don't know. I mean, I know they've got a bunch of teaser trailers. Yeah, I know they've been working together.
And the talent list on that is ridiculous. Those are really? Yeah. Look up the voice acting talent on duck tails.
Okay. Also, Kivu fucking bear in volume because you're completely right. He does a whole bit about 90s cartoon theme songs and duck tails is one of them he's talking about. And he talks about how you can't think duck tails without thinking woo, because it's complete Pavlov response.
Yeah. But he's also talking about- I believe he will. Yes. It's complete Pavlovian response.
Let me reindel. He starts out again. I also like Sisyphysian. What is Sisyphysian effort?
Yeah. He's talking about how his brain is full of 90s cartoon themes and that's why he can't have a successful relationship. I don't remember. Oh yeah, I do remember that.
Okay. Yeah, because he's talking about them trying to talk and that taking over is inside your brain. Yeah. I think when it makes it like Homer's brain it's just doing something completely in name.
The thing is every time he talks about duck tails, duck duck tails. Well, you and I both just got like a weird smooth image didn't we? Yeah. I think about- No, I think about Launchpad and Quack.
Oh. Who was the regular on duck tails? Reginald Bushroot. That was- It was Reginald.
Damn it. Thank you. Because they called him Reggie. He's a regular duck tails and also a regular on duck tails.
No, it's okay. Exactly. And you and I have conversations about our two favorite episodes. Well, I would say three favorite episodes of Darkwing Duck, which is- Quack or Jack and the Time Top was the- You said- Quack or Jack and the Time Top, which is the Frank Miller episode.
Yeah. They do all the dark returns references in it. Zombie Potato. Yep.
Which is the potato backwards Reginald Bushroot episode and then the second episode of the entire series where they're writing the comic book and people keep coming in and it's all the tonal chips. Yeah. Oh, I do remember that one. Yeah, those are the three favorite episodes of Darkwing Duck.
Oh, that's such a great show. Such a great show. You know, we should really look up the show runner on that and see what he's doing now. Uh, no, I can't even think of the guy whose voice was darkwing- He was on a podcast that I just saw and was like, oh, she should really grab that.
No, it was just one of those where they had so many weird little one-off side characters. Like Jumbo-Liah Jake. He comes back. Yes, but he was running.
And the Gator was like- Gator from the Rescurus. Look, um, yeah, and Peter Pan. Yeah, Peter Pan and the Rescurus. Yeah, like that like- No, it's- That alligator mold character.
Uh, she was the name of the fucking- What's the name of the Crockett element? It looked under me. Of course it will be. Yeah, Jumbo-Liah Jake.
And that was my first concept of anything- Is it like- Who would be the one who came to Queen Grandma? Like I said, that was my first concept of anything Cajun Creole ever. Jumbo-Liah Jake. Thanks, Disney.
He went instead of Mysterio. Yeah, yeah. He's kind of over there. He's kind of over there.
They're for a reason. There's so many cleverly named duck reference characters. Well, yeah, he was based on a Sankenard. His name was Drake Mallard.
Which- He had an adopted daughter named Gosling. Gosling. What was the name of her friend? Honker.
Honker Muddlefoot. Oh, God. Yeah, her Muddlefoot was the dad that always wanted to be- And then it was an overly optimistic dim-witted wife. Well, no, they were the suburban happy family.
Yeah. God, what was the name of the wife? Because it was her Muddlefoot. I don't.
It was like Binky. Well, Binky was the nickname. I don't know if it was her actual name. Yeah, that's the name.
Seriously? And then the older brother was like, you know, like, chunk or something. Yeah, his name was Tank. Tank?
That was it. He was like the archetype of the older brother- He was the Czech. No, he was like, Czech from Red Sox. That's the big, you know.
The Czech. Yeah, he's so sick. Yeah, he was the little weird creature at the end of the South-East. Yeah.
And then Rich sense the show ended up being the, um, one of the main guys in Oz. He's the one who first meted. That, uh, that JK Simmons race, right off the bat. Oh yeah, with the wog here and the crazy nails, because he does the weird nail murder that he wrote.
Yeah, like he's in jail for a DUI. It's, or like, tax, it's something. It's basically a blue collar. Yeah, yeah, but he ends up getting put in like the max, whatever.
He gets put in a role city and- So, JK Simmons, it's not Chris? You're thinking Chris Mulani. He comes in later on. Yeah, he's so fucking creepy in Oz.
Yeah. Yeah. It was the sexual predator. JK Simmons race first.
But like I said, the last few things that Chris- Mulani. I'm sorry, I can't pronounce his name correctly. Mulani. The last few things he's done has been comedies, and he was really good in them.
But he was just, he was such an intense drama actor for so many years, because he did all his AOC SVU, which basically shared the same cast. He's a man of steel. I don't know about that. Uh-huh.
He was one of the soldiers, but his, he went under the code named Guardian, and like, I think it was meant to imply that he'll eventually become, like, totally like, zealist hero, guardian based out of a trial list. Speaking of man of steel, let's jump for Zack Snyder. What happened this weekend? Zack Snyder universe.
Well, the Justice League trailer hit. Like, a good one. Or a better one. I'll let say.
Does that look like you've got finished effects on Cyborg? It looks a lot better. It still doesn't look right. Yeah, but he doesn't look as jagged.
He looks a lot better, but he still doesn't look right. It's like the CGI in his face is weird. That's, that's my issue. Is that- Like, I can't even tell.
Like, I said, to make a character like Cyborg work, you have to have a lot of humanness in a very small area. But it just looks like he's like motion captured as opposed to- Actual film. It could have done practical effects, at least on his face. Easily.
You know, it would have looked- He could have cleaned them up a little, but you could have gotten them back. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It looks like his face is mocapped, and it looks weird. But that's not- Okay, the trailer actually looks pretty good.
Once again- It was just such a weird tunnel shift. What do you mean? Oh, now that it's like funnier? Like I said, this is a very suicide squad- Ask trailer, and that's not a good thing.
Cause the suicide squad trailer- I call it DC's sucker punch. That's actually a good description. Yeah. It's not like the fact that they're not so greedy and serious.
Yeah, I absolutely do. But it's one of those things where it's like, did you guys take a hard right instead of taking a- No, but I think they probably did a lot of punch-up after everything with justice. Cause I mean- It really does sound like somebody went full on typewriter hands on this trailer. I- Shall we?
I don't- I don't agree with that actually. Um, I think it is a slight tunnel shift, but I don't think it's a complete- It's not gonna be a bloody comedy with that man. It's not. Do I love the joke in there with Batman when they ask what a superpower is?
Cause I'm rich. I love that. Do the best of all his money just ask on your man. Here's the funny thing though.
Aquaman's never been funny. I- He probably had- He probably had like the whole- Drax thing where he was funny without being funny in the Peter David run. He's Peter David's a funny writer. Here's the thing.
I'm sure there was humor in- I'm sure there was humor in- They're trying to do bring the humor in. They're completely underutilizing what the Flash is supposed to be. We don't know that we haven't seen that much. I still don't have a lot of faith in this or really.
Not- I just think- Fantastic piece. I can see where he would- The Flash is quippy and hilarious and irreverent. Depends on which one. What is it?
Barry Allen. Like I said. Barry Allen's a lot of dryer. Not that much.
Well see, I think he'll bring some humor to it. I mean, you know. I don't know. I think he saw that in that first teaser trailer.
That the Flash was gonna be a little funnier. Like I said, the Flash is supposed to be quippy and hilarious. I really just want Spider-Man and the Flash to like, quip off. Like have them beat together.
Barry Allen's not- Oh my god. Wally West is flashy with it. Yeah. Like I said, I want Spider-Man and the Flash to get attacked by a gag with knives and have them have a quip off while they're fighting off the gag with knives.
Well, I mean, just read the Bromance which inspired a Man of Dental. You want to quip off? I don't want Spider-Man and Deadpool. I want Spider-Man and the Flash.
Flash isn't that quippy. I disagree. And I think Wally's funnier than Barry, but- Let me do one of the kid Flash. Now his part was just- He was funny and that like he had that weird disconnect.
Because he was like from the future and he was like, Oh, look at this. Ice guns, how quaint. You know what I mean? Oh, I stopped at that point.
Like yeah, like he was just like, oh, you know, makes abilities and not, you know, it was like, it was like he found the past funny, so he was funny in it. But I don't think the Flash has ever been like super quippy. That's great. I think he's more quippy than I know.
We'll give you that one, which we'll talk about later. So I don't even want to ask you about the trailer. So the Wonder Woman trailer is actually really good. I think she's seen the Wonder Woman.
Wonder Woman looks really good in this trailer. Yeah. I don't mean just physically, but like her character seems to look like- No. Like when she's like flying around the show, people are like, that's probably- Not double-close lines, obviously.
Yeah. Like I said, she looks like she's come into her own as a character. Not that much screen time at the end. One of those things, she seems very established and very comfortable in what she's supposed to be.
And the thing is really before the movie trailer of Wonder Woman. You really only got Wonder Woman out of the fight with Doomsday. I mean, that was it. And you're going, okay.
She can fight. But then like, just the trailer, Wonder Woman alone, sets up enough that you go, oh, okay, this is where she went out of fight. I went into watching it, really wanting to hate it, and I ended up being very much a fan of it. Yeah, absolutely.
So Justice League, it feels like we already know her. Even though she hasn't had that much screen time really in the DC cinematic. Not at all. So, you know, instead of Wonder Woman, I'll see Justice League.
I'm still not sold on the bad guy, but whatever. I think it's a cop out. You know, because Marvel's done so well on her big dads. Yeah, well they have.
No, they really haven't. Name one big bad that failed. None of them failed, but the only one that's really interesting is Logan. You're doing just Avengers?
Talking, well, I guess technically. Well, Red's the whole movie was lackluster. We're already out of this conversation only on any time. Yeah.
I know. They're going to have a big bad in Civil War. The law. Truly the US government.
Well, it's between... They're technically two of them, but no. Well, there's Zemo. But really it wasn't...
Oh, Zemo. Come on. Yeah, creepy, right? Yeah.
It's about to go with that little baby with that ski mask thing. Yeah. Yeah, I guess Zemo was kind of, yeah. Oh, it's fine, but...
No, but the only big bad you've ever really been interested in is how to see more of. Well, Thanos doesn't technically count yet. What? Infinity.
Yeah, he's been the power behind everything, but he hasn't actually really interacted. It's already? Yeah, because he sent out... Ronan was one of his...
But Ronan was picked up. Yeah. And I did like Ronan. I liked Ronan.
I thought he was interested in... Yeah, I think he's a great actor. You know what? I'll take it back.
I would like to see more of it. Only because it was like a religious fanaticist. Well, that's the thing is that I wanted to hear more about the religious fanaticism. And I love the whole thing with him, with the priests, and they're putting on...
The ritualistic... Yeah, the makeup and the powder and the helmet. And he's like, I'm right because I'm creepy. Like I said, it was a religious fanaticist.
And I did want to see more of that, but it's just like, who's the bad guy in Iron Man 3? Iron Man 3 was... Technically it was what's his name. Guy Pierce, whose name I can't think of.
Oh crap, what's his character's name? But yes, it was Guy Pierce. He's the guy who started AIM. Well, first it was, you know, Gandhi, then it was Guy Pierce.
Well, first it was Malin, and then it was... Quote, quote, quote, the Mandarin, and then Guy's Pierce... What the fuck was his name? Oh, Adrian, no.
Shit, it'll come in here. The thing is, he was a really interesting character. Sorry, he wasn't really interested in character, but do I want to see more of him? No, not really.
Keep talking, the name's on my tongue. Well, I'm just talking about how Loki has been the big bad in what, three films now? Uh, one, two... Eh, would you call him the big bad in Thor 2?
I would not. Is that the... No, he was... Yeah, it's Chris of Raffleson.
Like I said, no, he was a plot device, and it was a way to move along the series. And I don't mean that in a bad way, that's just the fun to ask character. Right, right. I'm not gonna get it, it's Adrian something, Adrian, like...
Is it Adrian Brody? No, it's not Adrian Brody. No, that was funny. It's not Rocky's way to do that.
I wasn't gonna do that. I wasn't. Which is funny, because you know how I associate her now, is this Rashida Jones small? I was totally her, wasn't it?
Yeah. Yeah, her and Quincy Jones. Yep, and got a very good whole love, Adrian. By the way, and she's right back at season 4 is starting soon, I believe.
Two? No, two's out. Season 3? Season 3.
I loved... No, like I said, no, season 2 is up on Hulu, I've been watching it. Okay. It starts out exactly how you think it should start out.
It's just... Her waking up from a coma, and having a baby in a coma, and her partner moving on, raising her child with a second- It is so like a naked gun, I did not expect it to be so funny. It's so stupid, but it's so funny. It's just that scene where she's talking in the first season, and it's like...
She's talking to the murder of his wife, or something, and this looks like a wife. And she's like, tea? No, thank you. Coffee?
No, thank you. You're no sandwich? Oh, yes, please. Like, it's like, what the fuck?
It's like every lazy comedy trope you could possibly do, but you haven't seen them in so long. I didn't expect it to be as like, police squad. Like, you know what I mean? No, it really is.
Blatenly, like, slapstick fun. It's basically airplane. It's just today's not the day I just stop sniffing glue. Yeah, like, it's like, it's very subversive.
It's extremely, it's like, it's extremely, it's like, it's like I said that when it came out, I was like, if you like naked guns, you know the police squad. Because it's that humor that's well done and smart at the same time. Because TBS puts out their stuff on Hulu and like a weird schedule. I totally popped about 12 episodes of season two at the same time, which is good because I like binging it.
I like that we did that universe. It's like watching Harkstom, Thurgood, 30 Rock where you get locked into that universe so you kind of understand the community rules. No, I think they released the whole first season, in like one day. And yeah, I binged that over the course 23 and 4 minutes.
But a week or a week later, they put it out as like, one week. I don't know that they did that the second season. No, like, like, I said that just popped on Hulu pretty recently. on Hulu pretty recently.
I keep complaining with the building, I won't fix it. What? The rent in the toilet? So my toilet take randomly won't fill or fills on its own, which is not a big deal, you just take off the lid and tap the float, and it's not a thing.
They say they replaced the insides of it about a year ago, and they won't do it again. I'll place the insides for you, I don't care. If you want to, you can, but I'm just saying. I feel like I know it's not hard.
I just feel like the Delingian pay card. I mean, admittedly, my rent is cheap, but still. And also, it makes me for that one time I got their carto for parking in my parking spot, but that's on that. Shouldn't have worked there.
So speaking of Justice League, we'll get- Sorry, DCTV? DCTV? Not a whole lot of notes, but let's just get the worst out of the way. The musical flash-up episode.
You got great reviews. It was fucking terrible. It was nothing. It was exact.
And that is the urge to cut use in terms of musical episodes. Here's the thing, is I get their logic, hey you guys were on the lead together, you could both sing. Fuck yourself. That is not how you should not do it across over episodes like this, especially considering how much Supergirl is flailing hard.
No, but do you watch Supergirl? I actually think that pause works for you. I think that pause works for you. Like I said, Supergirl, it's not doing well.
It hasn't integrated well into the universe. They haven't made enough tonal shifts. And it's not attracting viewers. I think it'll change the third season of the Gats One.
I think it has. Because- DCTV? No, sorry, not DCT. Um, CW did a mass when you won't.
I'm pretty sure Supergirl was about it. Um, I think the third season will be a bit more of what we expect from Arrow and Flash in terms of- Well, no, it's one of those like, Flash is stumbled. Sorry, not Flash. Arrow has stumbled for a few seasons, but it's working, it's like that.
The Flash has been consistently entertaining. Legends apparently, like I said, Legends apparently I need to take another look. Oh my god, yeah you do. No, it's pretty much everybody's told me.
Suck it up, binge through it. Tree it like parks and rec, get through the first two seasons and get to the good shit. No, like I said, pretty much everything I've read and everything I've talked to have been like, big found their footing and it's actually hilarious and very, very smart. So apparently I'm- There's a good shit I'm getting there, but, like I've heard.
Like I said, apparently I need to get my shit together on that one. However, Supergirl, it's not been warmly received. Well, they couldn't- The thing is coming from- was it- the CVS. Sorry, that's right.
Which by the way, what the fuck CVS? So, coming from the vibe at CVS, because I don't want to keep saying total changes over and over here. The vibe at CVS, old as fuck? But I mean like, it was- You really like the CVS could get- You could get- You could get- You could get a solid 20-year age difference in viewership between the two places.
But you couldn't take it for what it was on CVS, that tone, that humor, which was- Uh. But failed, why would you try and save any of that? Well, the thing is you can't get it over to the CW. And make it like Flash-arrow Legends, because you do have a built-in audience that was gonna watch the second season.
So you can't do that like 180. It's an audio podcast, I can't see you scaling. I don't think it had built-in audience. Well, I mean it's smaller than it may be.
Um, that had obviously audience of it managed to do resurrecting CW. No, I think it got resurrected on CW, because CW fans watched the Flash crossover on Supergirl and CVS, and that's it. I think they basically needed to scrap everything, but the costumes, the sets, and the actors. March men are really good.
I don't watch- The sets and actors, I did not say anything about that. No, no, that's what I'm saying. However, the actor, the place Marjorie and Hunter, has history of being a homophobe. Um, uh, I, you know, I'm one of those people, like, I can divorce actors from their roles.
Um, but- Let's watch Hitler in this new comedy. That's called The Great Dictator, and yeah. The Great Dictator is so fucking funny, I'm sorry. It's on the belly with the glow.
It's like Larry's. Um, but, no, I don't think you can do that like 180 tone shift. No, you can't- No, I get that you can't do that. I still feel like they were extremely heavy-handed, and they were- So I think they're gonna- Stupid to try and do a musical episode.
Well, it wasn't- it just- it wasn't a good episode. I literally just scroll through all their singing, like- Like I said, I get that you guys met when you were both working on Glee. I knew you could sing. This is not a thing you need to do with your new shows.
Yeah, I don't think they need to give a get up. You know what I mean? It's like the way whenever- Maybe next Darren Chryselty here. Who?
Never watch Glee. I don't. Um, but here's- okay, so here's my thing. It's like, uh, you know, didn't do this, but I think you'll recognize what I'm talking about, where, um, in the 90s, and at Marvel, which was like the big comic boom, um, they put out the big comic boom.
They put out- it's true, early next- Um, the big collectors market multiple holographic covers, and they're making money into our fist at the time. I still have some, uh, Marvel cards in my wallet. This would be about the time Marvel cards. So they would come out with these new heroes, um, like they're getting more BS, um, there was a weird, almost like, Mr.
Missle Plick- Ask- he could turn himself into a cartoon, and his name was slapstick, and he could like, utilize a camera space? You know what a camera space is, right? I don't know what you- hold on a card. Oh, I'm sorry, bye.
I'm warning you. Yes, yes you are. Oh, an alarm drawn here. See, it's here.
Oh. Oh, no, it's just a dick bag with a horn. That's it. Uh, you know what a camera space is, right?
It's where hammer time happens. No, it's where- Oh, oh, oh, oh. This is not a musical episode of singing stuff. Sorry.
Um, hammer space is- What's up, we're telling you how to just happen? No. Uh, hammer space is when- imagine, um, I'm fields cat or, um, it's got pilgrim. When, uh, Ramona pulls the hammer out of a purse.
Oh, god, it's- it's the invisible space. Got it. Got it. No, it's called hammer space.
No, that makes sense. No, I understand. But it's always at the back of the region. It's like a bag of holding effectively.
It's like a perfect example of hammer space. No, it's the house of leaves. It's bigger on the inside than the outside. Yeah, that's- yes, the tarts would be an example of hammer space, I guess.
Yeah, no, like I said, it's bigger on the inside than the outside. So they had all these new characters. And of course they get them on books, and they're not so much as surviving on their own. How did you have our books?
I don't know. I'm not- Who was their marketing director? God. That wasn't a real question.
Okay, I was like, why did it involve heroes at the time? Anyway, so invariably you always had Wolverine or Spider-Man pop up in the first three issues. Which is funny because they do that with Ms. Marvel, but it actually goes super well.
Admittedly, this book is 20 years later than that? But the point is, like, you have stuff like the Flash popping up on Super Gold to do his ratings. And that's exactly the only reason why the CW took it from CBS is because the Flash did the cross over episode. So it was a known property when they were going to move it in to CW, right?
I can't believe CBS auctioned it in the first place. They should have been talking about- it was bad. It was bad. It was the same thing with Constantine, where it was a super bad fit and they bring him to the CW and he's phenomenal.
Sorry, it was too- Other than it was basically Flash Glee. It was the young terrible. I literally fast forwarded through- Oh, this thing. So the premise of the episode, Doug?
Yeah, but the thing is that you don't hate musicals. No, I don't. I'm not a huge fan of them, but if they're dumb, well, I like them. Love you.
Uh, it's not part of- Dr. Horrible. I mean- We can keep going. No, we really couldn't, really.
No, I- I could think of it like a bunch more. Zeno wasn't bad. I remember knocking. Was it bad?
Sorry, it wasn't flat. But anyway- No, it was a long time ago. My point is, here's the premise of the episode, Doug. Uh, yeah, yeah.
Go. Rico. No. Uh, I've never seen you build the Chinacabra.
I have it. Which one? When you load me the joss we don't want. Okay.
The Kenneth Bran is also excellent. I think I've seen that one. I think I've seen that one. But I want to see the joss we don't want.
Anyway. It's good. I have the Kenneth Bran is best. This alien puts the mental whammy on Flash and Supergirl.
Put some- No, whammy's no whamys. Stop. Um. So, he does that.
They put some in the commas, where their shared hallucination coma dream is the musical stuff. And he's like, you must, you know, figure out the plot and do the scripts to get out of here. Now, while this is all happening- Okay, I super get the suspension of disbelief but it's still stupid. Oh, just wait.
all happening. He's sucking their powers, like he's following their powers into him, so he's running around Central City, like, you know, robbing banks for some sort of reason? My Peter Beterly. Yeah, kind of.
Okay. And so like they finally get them out of the dream because they put Iris and Monal- David. You're gonna let me finish this guy, Danit, because this is where- No, finish it, and then I'll tell you what was laughing. So they put Iris and they breach Iris and Monal into the color dream, which fucking no sense at all.
And they each reconcile their relationships and that's how they do it. And- Where's Inception, ever? He really actually was. So then they come out and they beat the- and I swear to God, I'm like, the thing is, there's only one character it could have been, and I could win from the name and I'm like, what an oldie-tiny name for an alien, where they call them the music mister, actual character.
Chris Disko when you need him. So the music mister, I think you did. Oh, Dots is skilled, so he can write the dick. Some more things.
The music mister is, in the comics, like, Golden Age is very silver-agey character who- Yeah, I'm sure he's a compatriot of the Kaiser. Well, do you remember the Justice League episode where they go to the Earth 2 and it's the Green Guardsman in Zolik, the World War 2? Right, too. Do you remember that?
Do you remember that? Do you remember the- No, when you said the music mister is a K Oh, so the music mister is one of the bad guys in that. He's the guy who drives the car that's shifting the clarinet, and he uses the sound wave, the shockwave inducing the accordion. Oh, yes, that's a character.
That is a character. That's the music mister. He's like, time to face the music. It's like all music mons and a clarinet car.
I'm sorry, just keep hearing like the badly-tuned vaudeville piano. Oh, yeah, this is very much. So that's- Hi, Brader Hands. They made him, in this crossover with Flash and the Real, that they apparently at one point ask him, like, what planet are you from or what dimension are you from?
Because I know that they just had Mr. Missile Pluck on when he was on Fifth Dimension. Mr. Missile Pluck.
Oh, I could not say that. Until it takes his- Did you actually just do that? No, it was a joke. Okay, I was like, fuck!
That's something remaining. I can say any word backwards. That's my name backwards. Mine sounds like a leopard con.
