Hello wonderful people.

00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:05,160
about Wonder Man episodes 5
through 8.
3
00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:10,760
Finally talking about the
second-half of Wonder Man, I
4
00:00:11,120 --> 00:00:13,520
lots of thoughts about this
series, especially going into
5
00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:17,000
the second-half.
This is a fun ride that I can't
6
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:19,960
wait to get into.
Before we get into that, make

10
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:33,560
Spoilers ahead for Wonder Man as
a character, as a series.
11
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:35,760
So go watch the episodes and
then come back.
12
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:40,080
Let us officially take a bite of
Wonder Man episodes 5 through 8,
13
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:43,040
created by Destin Daniel Cretton
and Andrew Guest.
14
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:47,000
Trevor's past catches up with
him, leading Simon to super slam
15
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,320
some slimeballs.
The call back they've been
16
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:53,000
waiting for finally comes, but
Simon's past packs a punch to
17
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,720
his creative flow.
The pair's dreams come true, but
18
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:57,920
a pesky paper reporter puts it
in peril.
19
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:01,280
Finally, Simon creates a role
for himself that becomes a
20
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:07,560
breakout.
Wow, those are so fun.
21
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:09,600
Wonderful.
All right, so this is the
22
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:14,160
second-half of the season or
season series question mark.
23
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:16,800
We'll get into that.
I think this episode is really
24
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,240
going to be, it's not so much
how we focused really heavily on
25
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:22,440
the 1st 4 episodes in the first
time are Part 1, right?
26
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:27,360
I think this will be more of a
general where do we see Wonder
27
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,680
Man going and some of the under
unanswered questions that we
28
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:33,440
still have about the series.
All right, so now that we've
29
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,920
seen the second-half of season
1, hopefully it's Season 2.
30
00:01:37,960 --> 00:01:41,000
How did you feel about these 4
episodes compared to the 1st?
31
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:42,960
And then I guess just as a
package deal.
32
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:47,160
It's interesting, I actually
thought, I don't know if weaker
33
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:50,120
is necessarily the right word
for these four.
34
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:52,880
Maybe the build up of the
character and trying to piece
35
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:56,560
things together is where more
fun was for me.
36
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,720
The second-half I felt like
confused me a little bit.
37
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:03,240
I think it confused me a little
bit about Simon as a character,
38
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,840
as a person, and kind of where
this is leading them.
39
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,560
What did you think?
Can we talk about what confused
40
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,120
you?
Yeah, I think that as far as
41
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:17,320
Simon as a character, I kind of
there there in the episode where
42
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,320
the New York Times reporter is
coming to do a profile piece on
43
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,720
him.
I was kind of losing track of
44
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:24,760
whether or not he was a good
person or not.
45
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:27,120
I think that's on purpose, Yeah,
yeah.
46
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,800
I mean, Simon isn't, he's a good
guy, obviously, and he has good
47
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:34,480
intentions.
But I think what this show was
48
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:40,000
trying to do was he had to play
specific roles and that's how he
49
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,200
can determine to fully go into
that role or not.
50
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:46,920
And I think by the end of this,
these 4 episodes and by the end
51
00:02:46,920 --> 00:02:50,720
of the season, he accepts the
role that accepts the bad and
52
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:54,040
good consequences of his actions
and just actions around him.
53
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,480
I don't think we were supposed
to be like he is a superhero
54
00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:00,680
because he's not a superhero yet
until he actually accepts the
55
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:03,760
role as Wonder Man fictionally
and in real life, right?
56
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,720
So I think there was a
personally, I think there was a
57
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,480
point to that.
Like, I didn't really think he
58
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:13,160
was like a great person in the
first half and the second-half
59
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,000
you can really see him
struggling with a lot of that
60
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,080
stuff.
Yeah, I guess, I don't know.
61
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,000
I guess that's what it was in
the first half.
62
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,480
I thought that he was definitely
flawed, but I didn't think that
63
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:27,280
he was necessarily a jerk.
But I think that in the episode,
64
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,880
like I said with the New York
Times reporter, the way he's
65
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:33,640
seen on set, he's kind of a diva
right in like not knowing
66
00:03:33,640 --> 00:03:37,640
people's names and wanting his
order just right from crafty
67
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:43,440
and, and like, is it because
he's just so into being an actor
68
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,600
that he doesn't even realize it,
or is it that he doesn't care
69
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:49,680
about those people?
Well, I do think that we had
70
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:53,320
talked a little bit in our first
part about him possibly being on
71
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,240
the spectrum or divergent in
some way.
72
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:59,120
Then I think in these 4 episodes
it does show a little more to
73
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:03,680
that again like when he goes to
Von Kovacs house to do the
74
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:07,920
auditions and the script that he
had really doesn't matter.
75
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:11,240
And so when he's presented with
like oh this plan doesn't
76
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,960
matter, you have to improv and
how he just couldn't really
77
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,480
handle that right when he's
going to the house in his shoes,
78
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,680
his shoes or is there shoes on
shoes off house.
79
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,640
So he's really focused on some
of these things that, like, are
80
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:26,440
impeding him of performing well
or, you know, acting a certain
81
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,920
way in a situation.
And I think when he is on that
82
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:31,920
movie set, he's like, this is
who I'm supposed to be.
83
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:35,400
I'm now taking the role of a
movie actor, and this is what
84
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:39,520
you do.
But I think being confronted by
85
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,920
Kathy Fieldman and having to be
like, oh, no, you have to like,
86
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:46,400
be a good person, but are you
actually a good person on set?
87
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:50,080
And I think that's him showing.
Oh, maybe I do need to
88
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,040
understand that these are people
doing the same thing that I'm
89
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:53,760
doing.
Right.
90
00:04:53,840 --> 00:04:57,040
And it but it's interesting,
interesting because ultimately
91
00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:01,600
by the end, we see him make a
selfless choice.
92
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:05,560
We see him, you know, kind of
really assume this role of
93
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,760
wonder man in real life.
So that episode with Kathy
94
00:05:08,840 --> 00:05:11,560
Friedman, I thought was just
interesting and trying to piece
95
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,680
together who he is.
And so, you know, I was really
96
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:18,960
kind of the I was very much
thinking that he was on the
97
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,240
spectrum.
And then we got to to that
98
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:22,240
episode.
I was like, is he on the
99
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:23,960
spectrum?
Yes, maybe no.
100
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:27,560
Maybe it's just those social
situations that he just doesn't
101
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,160
know how to be a person.
But when we see him have that
102
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,560
conversation with his ex, right?
Because what he's really afraid
103
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,560
of is that everybody is either
going to reveal his secret or
104
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:40,320
tell the reporter that he's a
basically a jerk, you know?
105
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,360
And he almost thinks the worst
of everyone.
106
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:45,800
And as he's going through it,
everyone's like, no, yeah, well,
107
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:49,200
you're a jerk and you're
selfish, but I would never do
108
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:50,280
that to you.
Yeah.
109
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:54,520
And I think that's again, his
part of who he is as a character
110
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,520
of not fully trusting people and
understanding that like not
111
00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:59,120
everybody is out to get you,
right.
112
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,120
And yes, you have multiple
secrets that you're trying to
113
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,600
hide of you as a person.
And unfortunately, like your
114
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:09,160
career path in your in society
have made you feel that way, but
115
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,480
you can't treat everybody that
way, especially people that have
116
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,560
always been there for you and
maybe just have a conversation.
117
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,440
Yeah, just once or twice.
But I think again that that does
118
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:22,720
tiptoe into the territory of
like, is he little narrow
119
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:24,360
divergent?
And I don't want to keep saying
120
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:27,720
that, but I do think it's
interesting that I he, you know,
121
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:30,560
has a lot of traits that
somebody that would.
122
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,960
So it's it's an interesting
balance between the two.
123
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:37,440
Sometimes it's like, oh, is he
hiding his powers or he's hiding
124
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,680
how he is socially.
And I like that it conflated
125
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:44,120
both of those a little bit,
because now it's just kind of up
126
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:47,480
to us to dissect that and talk
about it, hence the show.
127
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:50,880
What, you know, one of the
things I was thinking about is
128
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,960
we, we learn a good amount, not
a good amount, but we learned
129
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,880
about his past.
And so I'm trying to figure out
130
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:02,760
what happened to him that led
him to this place of needing to
131
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:08,160
be so secretive about himself,
about his superpowers, and so
132
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,200
'cause there was never really a
thing where someone really did
133
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,320
him wrong in a way, it's just
something that he put upon
134
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:17,280
himself, which is kind of sad.
Well, I think, OK, let's get
135
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,920
into the DODC because I think
this is playing into it.
136
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:24,000
I part of the reason why I think
that we didn't see his origin of
137
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,200
his powers is because 1, he is
being set up to be some type of
138
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,720
mutant, right?
And the DODC is very much being
139
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:34,240
set up to be the government
backed agency to round up
140
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,960
mutants in some way.
You know, we heard, I think it
141
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,760
was in episode 3 of like, you
know, half of the the cells are
142
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,600
filled and like we're running
out of money.
143
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,200
So we have to justify why we
have this big fancy facility,
144
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,200
but it's only being filled to
half capacity.
145
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,320
And so like, how do you fill
those cells quickly and easily?
146
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:51,840
You would still fear into
people.
147
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:53,960
And so I think that's where
Doorman came in.
148
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,680
And that was a very important
part of not only you can't have
149
00:07:56,680 --> 00:08:00,200
powers while you're on set, but
they also took away Josh Gad
150
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:04,120
national treasure.
Josh Gad, who is missing.
151
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:05,560
I don't think he's still
missing.
152
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,640
And if he is missing, we know
he's alive just because of the
153
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:10,320
showrunners have said that he's
alive.
154
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:15,040
But I'm actually more in the
side of they have Josh Gad.
155
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,040
They're able because they're
experimenting on doorman.
156
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:21,440
We we, we can infer that I think
they might have Josh Gad and
157
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:26,760
they're more they're fueling the
machine the the fear machine of
158
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,320
see people with powers that are
unchecked can cause harm.
159
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:34,679
Yeah, I mean, this entire
situation, it's, it's blackmail
160
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:37,600
with Trevor and then it's almost
like entrapment, you know, in a
161
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:41,440
way with Simon that they're
trying to get him to use his
162
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,960
powers so they can hold it
against him and then they can
163
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:48,640
put him in one of these cells,
you know, so I I just, obviously
164
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:52,280
the DODC is just a bad, bad
organization.
165
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:53,920
Well, they.
Did say that he was a threat or
166
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:55,560
an asset.
So I do think that's going to
167
00:08:55,560 --> 00:08:58,760
come into play later and exactly
where that's going to fall, I
168
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:01,920
think it's going to really
depend on Simon.
169
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:04,480
And what is an asset mean for
the DODC, right?
170
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,400
Doesn't necessarily.
It's like you're not playing for
171
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,000
the good guys.
No, no, I do want to say that
172
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:12,160
the the second-half had some of
my favorite like episodes and
173
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:13,480
scenes.
I love when they were finally
174
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,280
getting the call back to things
like all was hit in the fan.
175
00:09:16,560 --> 00:09:19,400
They had to run from like people
are trying to get money from
176
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:22,000
Trevor and also the cops and
everything like that.
177
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:26,400
That was really funny.
And then the we got to the point
178
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:30,400
in the series or the character
arc where Trevor and Simon kind
179
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:34,000
of had a falling out and we find
out that Trevor was lying the
180
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,960
entire time.
And how Simon deals with that is
181
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,240
literally exploding with
emotions and destroying sound
182
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,440
sage.
The one person he put his trust
183
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:47,160
into ended up doing him dirty.
And I think that, but if you
184
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,840
look at it like maybe this has
happened to Simon a lot because
185
00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:53,600
his brother doesn't seem like he
really can trust him or his
186
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:55,920
brother, even though he supports
him and he loves him, I don't
187
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,720
think that he's been there how
Simon needed.
188
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,600
He doesn't get him.
No, and I don't think he wants
189
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,280
to get him, which like he's not
putting forth the effort.
190
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:08,000
It's like, I don't know, maybe
just stop getting on him so much
191
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:09,320
about not having these big
roles.
192
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:12,560
He's obviously trying, right?
And because of who he is as a
193
00:10:12,560 --> 00:10:13,720
person, it might just take a
little.
194
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:17,440
Longer, well, because it it
seems like for his brother, the
195
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:22,160
way to be successful is to have
money and to be able to take
196
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,960
care of your family.
And right now Simon doesn't have
197
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:28,520
either of those things.
But holding him up to your own
198
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:31,880
standards of what a person
should be, well, that just
199
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,520
breeds contempt.
Yeah, I did really like the sign
200
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:37,720
though, with the scene where he
blew up the sound stage that
201
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:41,000
just visually looked amazing and
I think really showcased his
202
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:42,680
power.
Like, I mean, he wasn't even
203
00:10:42,680 --> 00:10:44,600
really at full capacity I would
say.
204
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,760
Well, I mean we need to talk
about the gotcha moment in the
205
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:51,000
callback scene when we all
thought that he punched a hole
206
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:57,240
through that guys head.
Yo jaw on the floor, gasping for
207
00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:59,480
breath, completely gagged, I
mean.
208
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:03,440
When that happened, I was like,
there's no way he can get past
209
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:04,160
this.
This is.
210
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,280
I was like, oh, he's real
fucked.
211
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:08,040
And then it.
Wasn't.
212
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,320
Yeah, it was totally a gotcha
moment for us as audience
213
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:12,880
members.
It was definitely effective.
214
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:17,480
But I think that, I mean, look
at the way that his powers can
215
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,840
manifest.
I I mean, he obviously is
216
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:22,240
capable of that.
He can blow up an entire sound
217
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,120
stage.
He could truly punch a hole
218
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,000
through someone's face.
And just being upset about
219
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:29,840
friends falling out like that's
so I'm really curious to see how
220
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:34,680
far it can go.
The episode with von Kovac and
221
00:11:34,680 --> 00:11:39,040
his house.
I, I just again, I love this and
222
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,720
how they crafted this entire
series of like what an actor
223
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,520
goes through an audition process
and how there's like Francis
224
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,800
Ford Coppola type directors that
are like super method and like a
225
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,840
little too much.
I do want to say that I did like
226
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:55,640
von Kovac's kind of
protectiveness of Simon a little
227
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,760
bit when some, I can't remember
which one of the actors was kind
228
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:01,720
of like, oh, OK with Simon and
he's like, no, no, no, don't do
229
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,840
that.
So I did like that he had a
230
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,400
softer side as opposed to like
just being very weird.
231
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,480
Well, you know, he does say,
ultimately say to Simon that
232
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:13,600
Simon, it was always you.
I just needed you to rise to the
233
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:15,520
occasion.
I knew it was going to be you.
234
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:17,600
So sweet.
Oh my God, that's so sweet.
235
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:19,000
You were always my wonder.
Me, Hun.
236
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:27,280
So let's talk about Trevor's
decision to cover for Simon as
237
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:29,960
taking on the mantle.
Mantle again as the Mandarin,
238
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,760
right?
I think that this spells trouble
239
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:37,320
for Shang Chi and his sister
because she's now the leader of
240
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:41,000
the Ten Rings.
And now this terrorist.
241
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:45,360
I'm putting that in quotes is
back with the imagery of the Ten
242
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,160
Rings everywhere and saying that
like this is what he's doing and
243
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,120
that Hollywood is brainwashing
you, blah, blah, blah, blah,
244
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:51,920
blah.
It kind of echoing the far right
245
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:55,480
a little bit.
But now doing that to cover for
246
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,400
Simon for blowing up that sound
stage, which I think is the best
247
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,680
form of friendship that you
could possibly do by sentencing
248
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,320
yourself to just forever being
locked.
249
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:05,360
Up.
That's going above and beyond,
250
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,120
yeah, But I.
It's going to be really
251
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,880
interesting to see if this comes
back in some sort of way.
252
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:13,840
Yeah, I mean, it would be cool
to get more Shang Chi in our
253
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:15,720
lives.
You're telling me?
254
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:21,960
It's been years, but I think
that it's the ultimate selfless
255
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:25,080
moment.
I think that so many of his
256
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:29,320
decisions in his life were
completely selfish, were to get
257
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,400
more money, to get more drugs,
to try and survive.
258
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:34,600
He was willing to kind of do
whatever it took.
259
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:42,560
And so I think that being with
Simon, although it started as a
260
00:13:42,560 --> 00:13:46,800
way to save himself, ended up
being a way to for him to
261
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:51,280
discover himself and to make up
make amends for his past.
262
00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:54,320
It very much was like friends of
the craft became friends in real
263
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:55,920
life.
Yes, it was very sweet.
264
00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:58,520
Actors.
Loving actors.
265
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:01,520
And not actors on actors, actors
loving actors.
266
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,560
Yeah, I, I think the their
trajectory of friendship and
267
00:14:05,560 --> 00:14:08,200
just, I mean, what an amazing
story arc for Trevor, Ben
268
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:11,840
Kingsley being able to like,
play this role and then fully
269
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,520
come full circle and redeem
himself in some sort of way.
270
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:18,800
His decision to do that is was
great, but now there's huge
271
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,520
targets on both of their backs.
Well, and if we look at that
272
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:27,360
episode, what's interesting is
that we see Trevor kind like
273
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:31,800
really kind of saving Simon
throughout the entire period of
274
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:35,720
them being on set, whether it's
how he's talking to people.
275
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,880
There's that whole thing where
Trevor cannot get over just this
276
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:44,400
one line in a scene.
And excuse me, Simon can't get
277
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:46,560
over a line in the scene.
And Trevor has to step in and
278
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:50,160
kind of smooth it over between
him and Kovacs because he's
279
00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,720
like, I think in a way you could
ruin this for yourself.
280
00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:56,880
And so he ultimately has to save
him again.
281
00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:00,680
It's mirroring the American
Horror Story situation where he
282
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:04,400
could have been going too far.
And if Ben wasn't there and you
283
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:08,440
see this really highly
codependent relationship between
284
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:10,120
them specifically in the
episode.
285
00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:15,080
And then it just boils down to
like, once Simon finds out that
286
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,680
twist or finds out that he's
been, you know, getting
287
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:19,920
information on him and it wasn't
truly his friend, even though he
288
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:23,120
was, that's when just the
everything kind of crumbles
289
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:26,480
right together.
But you can see that Trevor did
290
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:27,920
really care about him
regardless.
291
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:31,080
He destroyed the the wire.
He kept trying to like play both
292
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:32,880
sides and ultimately didn't work
out.
293
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:36,440
But then it was up to Simon of
accepting that role as Wonder
294
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:41,600
Man to save him.
And and then we see that the the
295
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:44,040
movie's a hit and Simon is a
star.
296
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:50,720
So what makes Simon then give it
all up to save Trevor?
297
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:55,320
I think he had sucked.
I think he upset.
298
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:02,320
I think he accepts the role of
Wonder Man like fully.
299
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:05,240
Like I have these powers.
I can be a real life Wonder Man
300
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:07,040
and also play the role of Wonder
Man.
301
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:10,480
Well, he looks so good in the
suit, so of course he's going to
302
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,440
accept the role.
So incredibly cool.
303
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,000
From head to toe, Yeah, I mean,
do you want to?
304
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:20,240
OK, yeah, so friends over at POC
Culture, Ron Shadow, I did win.
305
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:24,840
It was a little bit away and I,
I, I do feel a little bad for
306
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:30,440
winning, but I also don't
because I mean just Wonder Man,
307
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:34,360
like official Wonder Man
glasses, which I cannot wear for
308
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:36,720
long.
If this is what Scott Summer
309
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:40,040
sees constantly, I I I would be
upset.
310
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:43,960
Those glasses always the the
Scott Summers glasses always
311
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:47,240
amaze me because his his beams,
what, what are his beams called?
312
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:48,920
They're concussive blasts.
There you go.
313
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:51,200
His concussive blasts.
They're just like always going
314
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:52,440
right.
Yeah, I know.
315
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,400
His glasses stare on his face.
There's like, it's like a
316
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,080
certain type of quartz or
something like that.
317
00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,080
There's, there's science,
there's an encyclopedia right
318
00:16:58,080 --> 00:16:58,760
there.
We can pick it up.
319
00:16:58,760 --> 00:16:59,840
We're.
Going to Yeah, we're going to do
320
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:01,840
some.
Deep research, I mean, but just
321
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:03,320
so cool look.
At this cool guy.
322
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,920
Him, him getting the actual like
Wonder Man glasses, the original
323
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,839
ones.
I think that's what really sold
324
00:17:09,839 --> 00:17:10,960
him.
We have that whole moment where
325
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:14,880
you see him in the suit and he's
coming into that role of Wonder
326
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:17,040
Man.
And these are the real ones from
327
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,160
set.
These are from Yaya's face.
328
00:17:21,079 --> 00:17:23,400
No, they're not close enough
though.
329
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:23,839
Close.
Enough.
330
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,240
They are very much going to sit
high in your collection of
331
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:27,839
goods.
I'll probably.
332
00:17:27,839 --> 00:17:30,200
Put them over here, yeah.
Yeah, we have this nice little
333
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:31,920
red shelf going here on the top
that's.
334
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:36,120
Perfectly things that we've
covered shelf but yeah, I mean
335
00:17:36,120 --> 00:17:40,080
going to the end of wonder man
right I'm just going to keep
336
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:41,440
this on because I'm not going to
take them off and.
337
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:45,040
I'll they look cool.
Going to the end of Wonder Run,
338
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:48,080
right?
Yucca Valley, we see after he's
339
00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:52,000
successful and everything and he
gets to talk to his agent and be
340
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,200
like, you did it, we did it,
we're finally here.
341
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:56,320
Your your movie star.
You have the choice of whatever
342
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:58,120
you want to do.
This is what you've been working
343
00:17:58,120 --> 00:17:59,440
for.
Your father would be so fucking
344
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:04,720
proud, which is amazing.
He makes a decision to take on
345
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:11,760
the role of a security guard to
the DOCDODCDOCDODC prison right
346
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:15,840
to break Trevor out.
I really loved the scene where
347
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,920
he was getting to know the
security guard.
348
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:22,800
Yeah, I thought it would like
most shows wouldn't care.
349
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,480
It was another moment where we
in the audience were sort of,
350
00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:29,360
we're in the dark because we
didn't necessarily know what was
351
00:18:29,360 --> 00:18:30,840
going on.
Who is this guy?
352
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:34,560
You know, we know that Simon,
he's method, right?
353
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,760
So he wants to dig deep now he's
a big star, he's getting a
354
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,360
gritty role.
He's playing every man, not
355
00:18:40,360 --> 00:18:43,040
Wonder Man, but actually it's
all farce, right?
356
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,560
And so.
I also, but I do want to say
357
00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:49,480
though, like we spent like what,
15 minutes with him getting to
358
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:51,960
know that like he didn't really
even want this job, but because
359
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:55,360
of where he lives and because of
money and everything, he has to
360
00:18:55,360 --> 00:18:58,360
kind of do it.
We even go from like him with
361
00:18:58,360 --> 00:19:00,520
his workout routines to eating
dinner with his family.
362
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,120
So like again, we're in the dark
of like what is happening?
363
00:19:03,120 --> 00:19:05,640
Like why are we?
I guess he is with the role.
364
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,960
But I do love like all that work
for him to just be like, no, I'm
365
00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:12,400
not the guy who you think I am.
And then just gets Trevor out.
366
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,000
It's like all of that training
was like, why?
367
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:17,720
He had to trick him.
He had to.
368
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:21,880
He only talked to two people.
He needed to gain his trust in
369
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,120
order for him to get through the
doors.
370
00:19:24,120 --> 00:19:27,040
Well, I guess if you didn't see
the karaoke at the local bar, he
371
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:28,960
wouldn't have been able to get
past that second guard.
372
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:32,520
That's right, He needed to know.
He just really needed to ingrain
373
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,120
himself in that life in order to
get through the doors.
374
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:39,360
Because I think that, yeah, he
could have probably blasted
375
00:19:39,360 --> 00:19:41,760
through the doors, but would he
have made it to Trevor in time?
376
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:43,840
So he needed to be able to go
through undercover.
377
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:47,680
I feel for the guard and his
family who think that there's
378
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:49,720
going to be some sort of movie
based on him or something.
379
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:51,960
I.
Think he knows now that like
380
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:54,920
it's not like it was all for
that.
381
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:56,840
He doesn't even care about that
place anyway.
382
00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:58,640
Like, I don't think he fully
believes in that place or I
383
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:00,480
think he'll be fine.
I just thought he was going to
384
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:03,200
see himself on the big screen.
No, no, unfortunately.
385
00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:06,760
So sad So.
He breaks Trevor out amazing
386
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:10,040
saving the damsel scene and he
pulls Trevor in close which I
387
00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:11,720
was like.
Love that.
388
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:14,040
And then they kiss.
And then they kissed and flew
389
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:15,280
off.
No.
390
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:21,320
OK, so this brings us to the
part in this episode of Do you
391
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:22,920
think we will see Wonder Man
again?
392
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,000
And when do you think we will
see him?
393
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:25,760
We.
Better.
394
00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:28,160
I mean, what is he going to do,
just be flying through the air
395
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:29,720
forever with Trevor?
Yeah.
396
00:20:30,120 --> 00:20:35,600
Forever with Trevor, you guys,
people, let me tell you about my
397
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:38,160
best friend.
Yeah, I mean, it would be such
398
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:42,080
AII honestly think it would be a
waste of this character.
399
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:45,480
I OK, so do you think we will
see him in doomsday?
400
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:50,480
Because this is this is where a
lot of them Marvel Cinematic
401
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:53,320
Universe is going right now
because we only really have I
402
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,200
think Spiderman before we have
Doomsday.
403
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:59,080
So he's either going to show up
in Spiderman or Doomsday or just
404
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:00,840
not until the mutant.
Saga.
405
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:03,200
I mean, can someone tell me what
doomsday is about?
406
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:07,680
No, exactly.
Do you think we'll see him
407
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:08,080
though?
I.
408
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,800
I would hope so.
I, I, I honestly would hope so.
409
00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:12,720
I really liked Simon as a
character.
410
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:17,760
I think it really worked in his
favor to be able to get to know
411
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:22,120
him before he's the hero.
Well, I that I think is the
412
00:21:22,120 --> 00:21:24,240
point of these spotlights.
I think they're starting to
413
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:28,800
understand like, oh, we can do
this type of origin where it's
414
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,640
self-contained in a way.
Echo and Wonder Man are very
415
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:35,160
much like this.
Without worrying about the
416
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:37,680
greater MCU, without putting a
timestamp on things, without
417
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:41,280
doing all this stuff and just
tell the story to.
418
00:21:41,360 --> 00:21:45,000
Then once they are introduced
again, it's a bigger impact
419
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,760
instead of wasting that time.
I mean, do you think you'll see
420
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:49,120
him again?
We'll see him again.
421
00:21:49,120 --> 00:21:52,160
I do, but I don't think in these
Avengers movies.
422
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:56,320
No, no.
And I I almost don't want him to
423
00:21:56,320 --> 00:22:00,960
show up because there are so
many moving parts with these two
424
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,480
movies, so many characters that
are involved in this that I
425
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,040
think to have him kind of thrown
in there.
426
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:08,960
I don't know.
I will say though, I don't think
427
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:13,560
that Marvel banked on the
success of this show.
428
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:17,040
This show is beloved.
Like I don't see any critiques.
429
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:18,840
Nobody's like trolling, nobody's
doing.
430
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:21,280
I mean, there's the occasional
like this show is boring,
431
00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:25,880
whatever, but there's like, I
think everybody Unitedly is
432
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:27,400
being like, this is a great
show.
433
00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:30,240
The show was really good.
This is what I want from this.
434
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:34,360
And so I don't think that they
expected the type of reception
435
00:22:34,360 --> 00:22:36,600
that it got.
So who knows, maybe they're
436
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:37,800
going to put him in there some
way.
437
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:40,640
But exactly where does he fall
in, right?
438
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:43,880
He is in California.
So we do know that there's quite
439
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,840
a lot of heroes and people
there, everybody from like Jimmy
440
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:51,240
Wu to the Pins to Chung Chi and
Katie.
441
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:55,000
So they're all there.
But he kind of can't stay in
442
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,360
California.
Well, I think that's the the big
443
00:22:57,360 --> 00:23:01,280
question, right, is like he's
globally known now as his
444
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:06,480
character, his face, Trevor is
now globally known again as in
445
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:09,040
quotes terrorist.
So like, what do they do?
446
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,280
Are they going to somehow be on
the run more?
447
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:14,400
I don't know.
Yeah, I think it's really
448
00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:15,480
interesting.
I mean, I think there's also
449
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:19,280
something to be said about will
eventually the DODC be brought
450
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:20,480
down?
Oh.
451
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:23,920
Not for a while, I think.
I mean, but is that maybe a
452
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:27,160
mission of Wonder Man is to
bring them down, the people that
453
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,480
were trying?
And also, maybe he needs to save
454
00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:32,400
Doorman, Find out where Doorman
is, Find out where Josh Gad is.
455
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,400
I think.
Olaf, 1000.
456
00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:38,200
Three, I think, yeah.
I, I mean, it would actually be
457
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:41,080
kind of cool if after the dust
settles or even maybe in
458
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:46,160
between, who knows, because we
have Kate and Kamala Khan
459
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:49,880
recruiting people, right?
But what are they recruiting
460
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:51,520
them for?
They're all kind of in the same
461
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:54,920
area as well.
So maybe it is to start some
462
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:58,480
type of resistance that's under
the radar because like, again,
463
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:01,360
Simon's going to have to be
under the radar or he's not.
464
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,440
I mean, are they going to be
able to prove that this beloved
465
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:07,520
action star is the one that
broke him out?
466
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:09,720
Do you know what I mean?
Like, can they prove that?
467
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:11,680
Probably because they're like,
best friends.
468
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,680
But I think it would be harder
for the DODC to try to get the
469
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:18,400
public's opinion to hate Simon
versus the other way.
470
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:23,160
OK, so we have Simon and Trevor.
We need some sort of hacker
471
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:26,600
character that can get into the
DODC and find their files.
472
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,200
Who will that be?
That could be Rhode Island
473
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:30,600
Rhode.
Island right and then.
474
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:31,760
Riri's going through it.
I don't know.
475
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:34,600
Oh.
My gosh, that's right.
476
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:38,400
So OK, what we really need to do
is we need to break down the
477
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:40,960
where are they now characters of
Marvel?
478
00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:43,800
Not obviously now, but I think
there needs to be some research
479
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,840
of like these characters that
were introduced but have been
480
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:50,080
nowhere as far as in the main
MCU timeline.
481
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,280
I think it's going to be
interesting to see going into
482
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,960
Spider Man and going into
Avengers, Doomsday, Doomsday,
483
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:59,800
Doomsday, and what time are we
at?
484
00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:01,920
Are we at current time?
Are we a little further?
485
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:04,440
Because they do like to do time
jumps a little bit and I think
486
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:06,840
to serve some sort of purpose,
they could easily do that.
487
00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:10,080
So I think with that, where does
that leave us?
488
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:15,680
Because I know that Shengshi and
Wonder Man, so we're kind of
489
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,760
developed around the same time.
Hence we have Trevor involved
490
00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:21,480
and he's not with Morris or
anything like that.
491
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,800
So I do think it's interesting
we got it so far after the fact
492
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:29,320
from 2021 to now.
So I don't know, I don't think
493
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:32,280
that we will see Wonderland for
a while, unfortunately.
494
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:35,320
Like he could probably pop up in
some smaller things, but I
495
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:40,080
almost want his like
reintroduction with the bigger
496
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,880
stuff to be a little more
impactful instead of just being
497
00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:45,840
like, oh, there's wonder,
there's Simon, and then that's
498
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:48,160
it, you know?
So I don't want him to be kind
499
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:49,760
of a throwaway.
I don't think that we're going
500
00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:52,840
to get vision quest stuff
because there's no way they can
501
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:54,960
do the brain wave patterns with
him.
502
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:58,160
And I don't know.
It's definitely a big question
503
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:02,040
mark for sure.
I, I think that this, this
504
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:05,600
wonder man I was going to like
as a season, I think it told a
505
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:07,720
complete story.
I'd obviously think it leaves it
506
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,200
open for more.
Where you could easily get a
507
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:12,280
season 2.
Absolutely, absolutely.
508
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:15,160
Of of maybe them just trying,
like I said, bringing the DODC
509
00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:17,520
down or just trying to be on the
run or whatever it is.
510
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:19,880
Make it oh, you know what would
be OK?
511
00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,440
You know it would be so cool.
Tell me first season 2 of Wonder
512
00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:28,000
Man is if Ivan Kovac, so he
wants to work with him again,
513
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:29,960
right?
Ivan Kovac does like a
514
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:36,520
documentary style thing of Simon
making the West Coast Avengers,
515
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:38,960
but it's like in the form of a
documentary.
516
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:40,640
I think that would be really
fun.
517
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:44,800
So you get the whole like
industry kind of behind the
518
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:47,080
scenes stuff that you got with
the first season, but a little
519
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:50,080
more meta without doing the same
formula again.
520
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,760
There's going to be a goofy
cameraman character in that.
521
00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:54,560
It would be fun.
He's like, whoa, whoa.
522
00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:56,880
This is so.
Wild for sure.
523
00:26:58,040 --> 00:26:59,560
You know it.
OK, come.
524
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:02,360
On sure.
OK, I'm casting it.
525
00:27:02,360 --> 00:27:03,920
I'm I'm building out your idea
here.
526
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,440
Yeah yeah, I think that could be
really cool.
527
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:10,480
I yeah, I I think that the
question is where are we going
528
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:12,360
to see him?
But I think that we should hope
529
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:14,200
we we should most definitely see
him again.
530
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:18,440
It would be a waste.
Let us know what you think when
531
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:20,000
you think we will see Wonder man
again.
532
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:23,920
When would you like to see him?
I I think it would be kind of
533
00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,880
hard to see him in spider man
just because one where it takes
534
00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:28,840
place and how big that movie's
going to be.
535
00:27:30,120 --> 00:27:32,920
Doomsday maybe easily depends on
how many people are involved,
536
00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,880
right?
Secret Wars maybe, but I don't
537
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:37,280
think doomsday.
I think there's a very
538
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:40,680
particular vision for that and I
don't see Simon Fid I.
539
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:42,480
Think it's Fantastic Four
forward.
540
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:45,320
Oh yeah, for sure.
I can't wait.
541
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,000
So excited for that.
Yeah.
542
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:51,320
All in all, loved it.
I want more of this type of
543
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:52,760
thing.
If this is how they do origin
544
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:55,640
stores, which we were already
kind of getting with Miss
545
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:59,560
Marvel, Moon Night, all of that,
I think we should do that more.
546
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:00,520
It's felt.
Elevated.
547
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:03,080
Yeah, in some way, yeah.
I really, I really liked it.
548
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,440
It was a little meta.
More fun.
549
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:06,720
Yeah.
Two thumbs up.
550
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:10,080
Yeah, all right.
Well, two thumbs up from Wonder
551
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,640
Man and we'll be back with
something else.
552
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:16,440
I'm sad to see Simon go but hey,
we we squeezed like 2 weeks out
553
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:18,400
of talking about this so I'm
happy about that.
554
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:20,960
Yes, we're celebrating Simon
flying through the air with
555
00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:22,600
Trevor in his arms.
Yeah, All right.
556
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,920
I need to take these off because
I don't know what colors are
557
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:26,320
anymore.
You're.
558
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,040
So dizzy.
All right, Bye, bye.
