Description
(0:06 )
Welcome to the show where we dive deep into movies, TV, and games we keep.
(0:12 )
Cars where they pop, culture on our minds.
(0:15 )
A podcast where entertainment binds.
(0:17 )
Exploring worlds of fantasy and fun.
(0:20 )
Join us now, the journey's just begun.
(0:23 )
Just begun!
(0:26 )
Oh!
(0:27 )
Oh!
(0:30 )
Oh!
(0:32 )
Oh!
(0:35 )
It's that time, it's Media Clash time, Volume 3, Episode 2.
(0:40 )
I'm Wayne, as always, joined by...
(0:43 )
And we're going to talk to you about some of the announcements that have come out in
(0:46 )
the last week or so since you've last been graced with our presence.
(0:51 )
The big thing that happened, we had San Diego Comic Con, which happened around the last
(0:56 )
time we did an episode.
(0:59 )
But the big thing was, D23, this week, well this past weekend, and they announced some
(1:10 )
things going forward.
(1:12 )
Like we said last time when we were talking about some stuff, that they were going to
(1:18 )
save their Disney Plus stuff for D23.
(1:24 )
If you love sequels, Disney's got you covered.
(1:27 )
And again, I think, here's the thing, and I looked at this when I saw what they were
(1:34 )
doing, what issues are they dealing with right now?
(1:38 )
They are dealing with characters and designs going into the public domain.
(1:43 )
So, the only way to keep that from happening, really, is you have to change things up, which
(1:48 )
is why we're getting live action versions of all those old shows, because then you now
(1:53 )
still own, so like the Snow White that comes out, they are going to own that copyright
(2:01 )
for the next 90, 95 years.
(2:05 )
So anything in that movie, that version of Snow White, is theirs until 90, 95 years from now.
(2:13 )
The Steamboat Willie movie, I think, comes out next week.
(2:17 )
And again, I could go into a whole diatribe of why I think, the ability to, I don't
(2:23 )
understand, I don't get the ability for something to go into the public domain.
(2:27 )
I don't agree with it, because what has Blood and Honey, this horror movie version of Steamboat
(2:35 )
Willie, because I think I saw the trailer for that.
(2:40 )
Yeah, there's that, the Bambi.
(2:42 )
Like the Bambi, what does that add?
(2:44 )
You're not adding anything to that copyright.
(2:46 )
You're literally making money off of people going, oh, it's the horror version of, like
(2:51 )
you could have made a horror version of that.
(2:53 )
Like, the problem is you couldn't use those names.
(2:56 )
And nobody's interested in your movie, your horror, your teddy bear murder movie, unless
(3:04 )
it's called Winnie the Pooh.
(3:05 )
Unless he's called Winnie the Pooh.
(3:07 )
If it was like, Billy the, you know, brown bear, like nobody gave a shit about it.
(3:14 )
But you had to, you're using that Winnie the Pooh name.
(3:17 )
I don't know, the new craze in horror now is killer androids.
(3:21 )
Oh, we have, I've not noticed that.
(3:24 )
The, um...
(3:25 )
Well, I mean, AI is always going to be, like, next to Boogeyman, because now you have that
(3:29 )
smart house movie.
(3:31 )
The smart house movie already came out.
(3:34 )
And then you have, you have a, um, the Megan Fox.
(3:40 )
I haven't seen that.
(3:41 )
Fucking android movie.
(3:45 )
Yeah, no, I haven't, I haven't seen that one.
(3:48 )
I think Apple, Apple TV's doing a TV show about, uh, like a little Japanese house robot
(3:56 )
that kind of goes nuts.
(3:59 )
I mean, that's...
(4:00 )
But all that's being put into the Megan crazy AI universe to where I'm thinking they're
(4:08 )
going to all team up at one point.
(4:12 )
Because why won't they?
(4:13 )
So dumb.
(4:14 )
Everybody wants to do their Avengers movie.
(4:16 )
Well, I mean, it's, here's the problem.
(4:19 )
And what we, what we, the same, the criticism people had of all the X-Men movies.
(4:24 )
Like, you exist in a world where all these other characters exist, so they should be there.
(4:29 )
It's not like DC where everything happens separately.
(4:33 )
Like, Batman and Superman don't cross over that much.
(4:36 )
You know, DC characters don't cross over that much.
(4:39 )
Marvel characters, on the other hand, cross over all the time.
(4:43 )
Yeah, because they're all in the same city.
(4:44 )
Yeah.
(4:45 )
That's what I don't think people understand, and they give it shit.
(4:48 )
I'm like, no, this should be how it is.
(4:50 )
Like, Spider-Man should run into Daredevil all the fucking time.
(4:55 )
You know, the Punisher is always on Daredevil's fucking nerves.
(4:59 )
You know, things like that.
(5:00 )
Like, that is a thing.
(5:02 )
But we never got it before, and now everybody's like, oh, everything's got to be pushing the
(5:06 )
next thing.
(5:07 )
Like, that's fucking how comic books work.
(5:10 )
One comic book issue leads into the next.
