about Mario becoming a movie? You remember and today we're looking at what

The Ghost
01:59

that mean to Shay.
JD 02:01
It's the
skill to shame me to shame deed. So without further ado, I do want to introduce
our very special guest. We have a good friend of ours. Nick Tabor, host of
movie theater Time Machine, Nick. Welcome to the show.
02:13
Dude,
Judy goes Thank you for having me. It's so good to be here.
JD 02:17
Oh, do
we have been so excited for this fucking episode? It's not even funny, man.
Nick Taber
02:22
I was
looking forward to it as well. They did JT you absolutely killed it with you on
our show. And I need to return the favor.
JD 02:30
Oh man I
had so Dude, I had so much fun. I was on episode 208. We got to talk about my
favorite Star Trek movie star trek four. We got saved with the nuclear Wessels.
The Ghost
02:44
No.
Wessels. Love that.
JD 02:49
Before
we get into the show, I do want to Nick, tell us to tell the folks in a little
bit about your show. I had a blast on it. Tom. It's a it's a great time.
02:58
All
right, man movie machine is a show where we have the four nerdiest people on
the east coast. My wife and I and our two friends Dan and Jocelyn, we were the
podcast that keeps it real to real. And I'll let you figure out what they what
the spelling of that is. It's a win spend compare by multiple people as a
second coming of MST. 3k and I really love taking that mantle. Do we? We go
over movies that add add, you know, way too much detail over the view of it may
crack jokes, and really do it for the means of comedy in the means of insanity.
And we are moving theater time machine because we have this segment of fantasy
casting where we have a time machine which has been turned into d 20 days. Not
really sure how that happened. But we changed the movie and we've been trying
very hard to make Christopher Walken appear in the funniest places.
JD 03:57
I think
he did show up a little bit. I think I did have a high roll on that. So I think
we're walking was somewhere I think he was Didn't we say it was the Federation
president or something?
04:06
Yeah,
you did. Yeah. It was like it was almost close to double 29 night and I'm like,
Yeah, that one's in.
JD 04:16
It's
like hey, we got a probe. It's coming towards Earth and it's it's mad about the
whales. It's upset about the whales and I gotta
04:23
tell
you, why are we in seven days San Francisco. But have you seen where the new
clear vessels we need up your ass.
JD 04:41
I held
this uncomfortable hunk of metal on my ass the entire time the pro was here.
04:44
And now.
04:51
Mr.
President, right having to use rope tries
The Ghost
05:00
Y'all
are having too much of a good time because I love it, man. I love that shit.
That's great.
05:06
Yeah,
yes. Yeah.
JD 05:09
So we
are not talking about Star Trek. Today we are talking about another very
popular franchise goes take us in what are we talking about?
The Ghost
05:15
I mean,
imagine this man. It's 1994 and ghost is sitting in his mom and dad's living
room in Frankfurt, Germany, and on TV, a trailer for a VHS tape. For anybody
who doesn't know what VHS is, then you're too young for this show, bro. VHS
commercial for the roadie Super Mario Bros. and ghost lost his fucking mind.
Because I just beat the first one. Right around that time. So Mario was still
very fresh on my mind. So I lost my shit, man. I was expecting the unexpected.
And my God. Did I get the unexpected from this fucking movie?
06:04
This
movie? Holy shit. Did we get the unexpected?
The Ghost
06:08
This
movie? It's a pile of talk shit. It's terrible. It's terrible. But we're not
gonna we'll get into that in a little bit. Did either of you see this in the theater?
JD 06:22
I might
have. I did. I
06:24
did
have.
The Ghost
06:25
I did
not. I saw it on VHS.
06:28
And
06:34
it felt
like oh, back up a little bit. Like I always begged for my dad. My dad had like
a one day off a week. Yeah. And I was begged for him. And that was his precious
time to either do nothing or do something. Right. Mostly it was nothing, right?
And I'm like, Okay, can we gotta see this supermario movie, Dad, it's gonna be
so cool. And when he was he was never a guy who got angry. But when he was
really mad, he got really, really quiet. Yeah. And you know, we went to see
this movie and like, Oh, this is good. And you know, he paid harder money for
tickets. And we were not going to leave. And I remember my body like, you know
of like almost astral projection like moving out of the theater. Back in the
car, and we drove home when my dad was old for quiet. And don't like it. I got
back into the house. My dad do you enjoy the movie? No.
JD 07:34
He
didn't even try to pretend he enjoyed it. No, no.
07:42
I didn't
even need to watch this to help you review this because this movie is etched in
my brain. As there's a little bit of PTSD in it, although again, still a lie.
But as an adult, it's not even one of those movies. You can watch and just
drink with your friends and go. Oh, man, it's gonna be really fun. There's it's
just that that is?
JD 08:02
Yeah,
well, it's just that bad. Like, I literally, I couldn't find the fucking movie.
The Ghost
08:09
No,
yeah, no, I
JD 08:10
couldn't
I couldn't find it to watch it. It's nowhere to be found. I had to actually
like do like YouTube and like, just like watch clips of it and shit. And like,
my wife and I are watching or like trying to find it. And like we'd say okay,
it's not on Amazon. That's weird. Maybe it just thinks I'm trying to find a
different Mario. So like I exhaust every possible way you could spell Mario
Brothers or Super Mario Brothers or Super Mario Bros or Super Mario Bros, or
Bob raskins movies or whatever, and nothing would not come up. And she just
looks at me. She goes, it wasn't that.
The Ghost
08:46
Damn
right. It is. It's bad.
JD 08:49
Yeah, so
I actually yeah, I'm actually like, pissed off about that. Couldn't find them
after, like, literally literally buy a used DVD from somebody on Amazon at some
point for this. Yeah, I
The Ghost
08:59
mean,
that's ridiculous. I haven't seen it since 1997. Men, and I'm going by just
photo memory from what I remember from this piece of dogshit. But um, I mean,
it really does stay with Oh, man. It does. Yeah, remember, man, Dennis hoppers?
Are you serious? There's so much fucking potential. But
JD 09:21
then
there is Dennis Hopper went through a period of time where he was doing a lot
of really strange movies that I still, you know, I still, I'm gonna I'm gonna
defend all of them because he was at this point in the 90s. Where I was like,
You know what, fuck it. I'm Dennis Hopper. I'm gonna make whatever the fuck I
want. I'm gonna make space truckers. I'm gonna make Super Mario Brothers. I'm
doing it. And who could stop him?
09:40
Yeah,
Dennis Hopper did this because he had his first kid four years before that
though. His first son rather Really? Oh, well. I want to do something that
they're gonna what's good right now Mario Brothers. I want to do this. I want
to be Donald Trump. I mean, doing
The Ghost
10:05
all this
10:11
you
don't want to be this
JD 10:16
there's
no like, like okay so so like the the version of browser they gave us was even
browsers King Koopa which is still irritating, but like yeah, I would imagine
that's like what like if Donald Trump watched that'd be like I'm going to be
that guy. That's who I'm going to be.
10:32
I'm
going to be that guy. Real every potential a good
JD 10:38
wash the
Mario Brothers I'm going to squish them I'm going to squish them because they
haven't eaten them mushrooms. I'm going to stop you in the president voice
because we already have one president character on the show.
The Ghost
10:49
Should
Be quiet before he comes in here and I don't want this motherfucker.
10:54
What
motherfucker? Are you referring to son?
The Ghost
10:59
The
President I personally sir
JD 11:01
Kim
Cooper was a great leader.
11:03
Can Jeff
All
JD 11:11
right,
well, that was two presidents in a row so that was
11:15
interesting.
JD 11:16
So weird
shit happens in weird Oh Bell people. That's what happened. Do y'all
The Ghost
11:20
want to
look at the games that came out before this movie? i?
JD 11:25
i do i
do I actually really want to analyze the games a little bit. I don't want to
spend too much time on them. But like, I feel like we have to look at the
source material,
11:32
though.
Okay,
JD 11:33
all
there was for good actually. There's five games up one there was five four
games that people gave a shit about out by the time this movie came right there
was the very first one there was that really weird second one that was based on
like a whole nother game. They just slapped Mario.
11:48
Remember
that one? Right.
JD 11:50
And that
was number three and then the one that introduced Yoshi Super Mario World so
they had all that to go right
The Ghost
11:56
I mean,
Super Mario World is considered arguably considered the greatest game of all
time next to maybe like Breath of the Wild with the new Zelda is considered one
of the greatest games of all time, so I do dad good material. What the fuck
happened? I don't know. I don't know, man. Probably
12:19
what
happened? Dude,
JD 12:21
let's
hear it. I want to hear what Okay.
12:22
All
right, so Nintendo was in a freaking panic and this is what I was teasing JT
about.
JD 12:30
I've
been like, this has been like how long were like I've known this information
was a thing, but I haven't been privy to it. I haven't been ready
12:36
man.
This Nintendo was in a panic. And what happened was is they had to make a movie
right away. Right? They had to get it and they had to but what happened was
Nintendo Japan wouldn't fully licensed the rights to do Mario right away. So
some things were a little bit off like you know how Bob Hoskins never really
wears a hat. And joy was amo doesn't have Luigi mustache so it's slightly off
JD 13:06
and like
there's an eggy but there's not a Lemmy and a Wendy or lewd way. Exactly,
13:11
exactly.
Now, here's the thing. months before this, there was a movie that was there was
a porno parody of the TV show and the cartoons called the super Oreo brothers.
JD 13:25
I'm
writing that down for research.
The Ghost
13:27
Oh my
god.
13:30
Super
hordeum brothers was a movie that was about to be released Nintendo bought it
up and then basically buried it and it wasn't really released until 2017. Why
God now the superheroes they bury that because they're like, no, this is the
old Nintendo was like No, this is a family
13:52
we're
not gonna
13:54
be
trumped by a porno we're not gonna do this we're not gonna be there and now the
Luigi Luigi character in the Porto was made was played by Ron Jeremy Oh,
14:06
my God,
I'm dying.
14:08
No, it's
not because you can't tell me that Ron. Jeremy doesn't look like Mario
JD 14:14
actually.
Yeah. No, you're absolutely right. He's right. Why
The Ghost
14:18
was he
not the lead?
14:19
Now you
see like he's the pope right? The Pope walks out out of this valley you know
out of the Vatican and goes yeah, Ron Jeremy, the guy who looks like the pope
or the guy who looks like Mario. Yeah, that's what the Poke sounds look it up.
But look that up.
JD 14:35
Also
hold on Fun fact to. Here's a weird connection to us to a very famous game
rivalry. But Ron Jeremy is also known as the hedgehog.
The Ghost
14:46
Yeah.
14:48
Check
that shit out.
14:49
Oh my
god.
14:52
We're
not No, he's
JD 14:53
the
hedgehog. He can't be the hedgehog and Mario. It's not gonna work. We're not
gonna let that happen.
15:00
Maybe
it's better cheese I don't know.
The Ghost
15:04
Jeremy
it's in No.
15:15
We're
gonna have to digitally wipe out some things What?
15:20
Oh, that
The Ghost
15:24
so all
that Nick, are you? Are you telling me that this? Are you telling me that this
movie had this this franchise or this game had a porn before it had this
JD 15:37
pornographic
connection?
15:39
Yes,
JD 15:39
that's
amazing.
15:41
It was a
porno parody based on the Kids TV show and the comic books. Not the video game.
So
JD 15:48
I do
remember the game the the show. It was pretty good.
The Ghost
15:51
It was
awesome. Yeah, do remember this
JD 15:56
cartoon
and the the live action one. Well, actually, no, it was the one that was Yeah,
that's right. They would start Yeah, okay. Yeah, they would start out live
action.
16:06
Yeah, it
was Captain Lou Albano was Mario right yeah,
The Ghost
16:08
that's
the one I haven't heard that in years dude.
16:11
Yeah.
Damn. Yeah, that's not enough to find that one is way easier to find the
fucking movie. Yeah. But you have this like you have the you have all this here
Nintendo was running scared and they said you got to release a movie. You've
got to get it done and they greenlit whatever came first and it was this Oh my
god.
JD 16:35
Whatever
came first. Yeah.
The Ghost
16:46
That was
great.
JD 16:48
So they
basically just made this and but but Japan wouldn't fully licensed. So Japan
was like, I don't care. I don't care. I don't care about your porn. We don't
even like porn here like they're like
16:58
we don't
care about your book. We don't like porn here know
JD 17:00
where we
block our shit out. We're not really we don't know about your problem. So So
okay, so so then so they're making this movie so but they couldn't fully like
take from the full license?
17:12
No myth
Oh, no. Wow. So it's the created and then the this studios said oh my god,
everybody loves Nintendo. Everybody loves video games. We've got to make this
movie and we got to make it quick.
JD 17:27
How
could this
The Ghost
17:31
go
wrong? Hmm, I wonder
17:35
how
could they?
17:37
No,
we'll just shove it out there with a bunch of kids and then make it up make it
happen.
JD 17:42
They
don't know they're watching anyway. They'll just this will provide some extra
backstory or something.
The Ghost
17:47
Nothing
bad happened. Nothing bad.
JD 17:52
Calm
down. Calm down Mr.
The Ghost
17:55
Buck.
Nothing bad. I love it. I got to drop some facts with you guys. The Fifi is
dropping that this shit was Yeah, let's hear some dropping that this shit was a
bit of porn game became before this a porno be? I can't believe it dude. I'm
sorry. Yeah, it's insane. But dude, there's there was a lot of problems with
this man had a lot of problems with production. I mean, just overall,
everything was just going to shit. And I can I can kind of understand why this
movie flopped because they this this has nothing to do with Mario man. I mean,
it's a complete different fucking universe. But yeah, did you guys know that?
Danny DeVito got offered to direct and play Mario imagine that shit please.
Please imagine
JD 18:56
how the
fucking nothing against Hoskins right at all. But how the fuck do we not have
that?
The Ghost
19:05
I'm
sorry, dude.
19:06
Oh, God,
like
JD 19:08
that
would have elevated this movie to dude epic proportions they could
19:11
have
just done Mario to and he would have just given an egg and trying to tell you
that's
The Ghost
19:17
serious.
19:22
Seriously?
19:25
Dude,
that was good. That was good. We got
19:31
we got
to go save it and Eastern shrooms.
The Ghost
19:33
Okay,
facts man.
JD 19:35
mushrooms.
Yeah, here's a nice egg. There's there's eggs are everywhere.
19:39
Eggs
everywhere. some reason we got to go ahead and dig up turnips. Why the hell can
you fly?
19:45
I don't
know.
JD 19:45
I don't
know.
The Ghost
19:50
To play
off of. I want to play off of Nick's thing that he said how Nintendo needed to
rush something out quickly. Yeah, Nintendo actually gave the filmmakers free
rein To do whatever and make whatever movie they want it, and look what
happened, Nintendo
JD 20:07
and this
is what they did with their opportunity. Like so no one was watching that. No one.
No
The Ghost
20:13
no, no
supervision. There's no oversight.
JD 20:16
No.
Like, they were just like, there's no way you could fuck this up. Alright, so
we got to get into the actual movie here. So like,
20:25
Ah,
JD 20:27
so
apparently there was a meteorite crash killed the dinosaurs, but it created to
paradise ultimate tunes, which I actually don't even hate that because I mean,
like, that was kind of the cartoon kind of do that. Like, it was like he found
his way to mushroom land or something like that.
The Ghost
20:44
Yeah,
yeah, he
20:45
did.
Yeah. Did Super Mario World, I think.
JD 20:49
Yeah.
Like, I feel like that's not even like that bad of a start. Like they were
starting. Okay. Like, I mean, okay, so there's two dimensions that that I can
live with, or there's multiple dimensions that makes total sense. But then
Jesus, it just falls apart right from there. So so homegirls land like an egg
and a rock on this Catholic orphanage, and then and then King Koopa it's not
even I'm still mad about that. Like, how is it not browser?
The Ghost
21:18
I don't
know. It bothers me still today, dude. Like, why just browser bitch.
JD 21:24
Yeah,
but it's kinky. So it is what it is and right. And then and then. And then
like, the rock falls on her and they they get pulled into another dimension.
And that's like 20 years later. And then there's like this like, a lot more
mafia stuff than I was expecting for the Mario Brothers movie.
The Ghost
21:43
Right?
No, it's it's very I hated the tone in this film. Cuz I remember I was like,
this doesn't feel like a fucking Mario. Mario. In what? dinosaurs? What the
fuck is this? I was pissed as a kid man. This shit pissed me the fuck off. I
hated it.
JD 22:01
Well, I
mean, dinosaurs isn't even completely off. I mean, like, yeah, they did. They
did have dinosaurs and Super Mario. Yoshi was a dinosaur.
22:09
They did
it. It makes me think like, how much of the game did these writers even play?
JD 22:15
Yeah,
that's what I'm wondering.
22:18
Like,
you could look at a box cover or the games that you know at a blockbuster
supermarket or anything or? Or you know we're looking to go Okay, we can make a
movie off this.
JD 22:30
And they
Yeah, cuz cuz they had like, like we said the beginning shot they had a lot of
material. Sure did. So yeah, so I don't even know what happens next. I
22:43
mean,
like, like, like, like, take us through take us through like like they got a
deal with like the mafia somehow. And that's how they end up in the dinosaur
world. Well, yeah, they they deal they deal with the mafia, right. And Daisy is
kidnapped by henchmen and taken into dyno hadn't
23:01
died.
Yeah,
JD 23:02
I know.
Hat Right.
23:04
Yeah.
What? Really?
JD 23:08
Kind of
clever man hadn't got it. I think I just got it.
23:12
Oh, God.
I just did too.
JD 23:14
Okay,
that's actually more clever than I gave me credit for. Yeah. All right. Okay,
that works. You know, that checks out. I'm good with that.
23:21
They're,
they're taken into that into datto hat and and they need to the problem was,
was that King Koopa? Basically, the whole thing that gets the ball rolling is
he sees into our world. And he has to kidnap the princess because there's this
gem that they have. And that gem is going to cause the machine which turns the
humans into apes in reverse like I think they call it reverse prime Asian
JD 23:51
reformation.
Yeah,
23:53
yeah.
Mature turns that into back into monkeys. Right. Why to get that line with
Dennis Hopper good movie.
The Ghost
24:03
I just
realized that the distributor for this film was fucking Walt Disney Studios.
Disney distributed this shit. Yeah. That I was unaware of. I just I'm looking
at the fucking IMDb and my holy fuck Disney Studios. Alright, I guess
JD 24:21
all
roads lead to Disney man. I can't like like, honestly now. Yeah, yeah. For
real, like,
The Ghost
24:27
it's
kind of disgusting. It is what it is, man. This movie actually really flopped
in theaters man. It didn't do fucking dick man and budget was like $48 million.
And they made worldwide 20.9 it didn't even they threw money away. Really bad
way. And you can see it on screen man is it's just it's it was executed really
terribly. I feel like they all just got drunk during writing because and this
is not not a joke. they rewrote this bitch. As they're filming, they know
there's a script. There's a script for this piece of shit.
25:09
JOHN,
john Leguizamo admitted he's like him and Bob drank the entire time. Just
The Ghost
25:16
fucking
read that to him. I was like, Dude, this fact is hilarious him and Bob would
drunk as fuck during the filming of this man.
JD 25:22
I love
it because I feel like Bob was like, like even he would like he was the type I
feel like they would take acting seriously. JOHN Leguizamo,
The Ghost
25:31
Bob
hated every second of this movie.
25:33
JOHN
Leguizamo was one of those guys like he knew who he was, and he really just
laid in like leaned in on on the fact that he was like, the Latino stereotype.
Yeah. And it's like, okay, people are gonna laugh at me. I'm just gonna go
ahead and take it to attend. And just keep it going. And then just, you know,
bless myself. Damn, I got nothing against him. That was on. Oh,
JD 25:58
now you
know what, I really liked him. And I liked him in spawn number spawn.
26:02
Yeah,
JD 26:02
he was a
fucking clown. That was Oh, God.
26:06
Oh,
yeah, he did. He didn't. He
JD 26:09
forgot
about that shit didn't Yeah, yeah, he did. Yeah.
26:12
Oh my
god. Yeah, you're right.
The Ghost 26:13
I forgot
that.
26:15
That was
a good one.
JD 26:16
That's
been a while.
The Ghost
26:17
That's a
comic book movie, right? Yeah, it is. Yeah, he did play that clown. Yeah, it
was crazy. Yeah, yeah. He's a good actor. If you really think about him, he's
not a dark horse
JD 26:24
or Todd
McFarlane McFarlane creation. He's like, the ones always doing all that crazy
shit.
26:30
Yeah, I
mean, he's also best known for playing with the hell and ice age. Oh, yeah.
26:38
The Sid.
Right. Yeah.
26:41
Thank
you. Yeah. Yeah.
JD 26:47
I choose
life.
26:53
Oh, my
God.
JD 26:54
Nick,
you sent me something that I feel like we have to touch on the guy that played
Toad that may have been one of the good parts of the movie. Ah,
27:01
okay.
The guy who played Toad is a guy named Mojo Nixon. And if you look up the song,
Mojo Nixon, Elvis is everywhere. It's going to get stuck in your head. Yeah.
Oh, yeah. It's, it's really really one of those. I found it on a YouTube
channel called stuff I found on VHS. And there's we used it as a stinger for
when on movie theater Time Machine. We did Elvis month last year. And we went
through the fan theories of if Elvis is alive or not.
JD 27:40
And I
sent one to JD probably the best one. Oh, it's amazing. It's my favorite new
wackadoodle theory since birth.
27:49
Yeah,
and use that and it shows there's like, there's one of the lines in the song
itself is you know, Elvis isn't everybody Elvis is in your mom Elvis is in your
jeans. Elvis is everywhere except for the anti Elvis and the music stops and he
looks at the camera and goes Michael J Fox has no Elvis No, and it just keeps
going with
The Ghost
28:17
this
fucking song yet. I did.
JD 28:19
I'm
actually gonna. I'm gonna play I'm gonna play a little clip of that right here.
28:25
When I
look out into your eyes out there, when I look out into your faces, you know
what I see? I see a little bit of Elvis and each and every one of you out
there. Let me tell you.
The Ghost
28:47
Oh my
god, dude.
28:51
The guy
that played Toad,
The Ghost
28:52
I'm
like, Holy Fuck this. The first thing I noticed like it totally is the guy who
played Toad and Super Mario Bros movie. Dude, I feel like I've heard this
before. I
JD 29:00
feel
like I have to.
The Ghost
29:03
I really
do.
JD 29:04
Same but
I'm not sure where to play if I heard it before. Nick sent it to me. I'm not
sure right.
29:10
But they
played it a couple times and Beavis and Butthead episodes when they used to
break in like make fun of videos. Yeah. If you watch that it was on there for a
little while.
JD 29:21
I
probably saw it on there. Actually, that led to that that actual segment led to
me actually liking a particular artist. Did you ever see that one where it was
it? Okay, it's a rapper named mc 900 foot Jesus. Yeah, MC 900 foot Jesus. So I
was like, What the fuck is this, but the song is actually really catchy. It's
the one where like Beavis gets really into the beat and so like the entire time
he's just sitting there Bow Bow. Bow Bow. Bow Bow. Bow.
29:53
bow bow
bow bow bow.
29:58
Shut up.
JD 30:00
I looked
into that guy he's actually got some really good shit. So everybody at home
check that dude out he's actually ridiculous name awesome fucking artists.
30:09
Can I plug
one? Oh just one episode of Movie Theater.
30:12
Do it Do
it Give it to me.
30:14
All
right, so Episode 188 change of habit though we reviewed that Elvis movie that
one has the wackadoodle Elvis Elvis is alive theory that Elvis is alive because
he went home and
JD 30:32
went
home now he is
30:34
the
Elvis was an alien and the acronym is Elvis is an acronym for ever loving
verrall intergalactic superiority
The Ghost
30:43
kind of
reminds me of a Men in Black Oh Elvis is dead on I have is not dead. No, Elvis
30:50
just
went home.
30:53
No, he
just went home. Great.
JD 30:55
There
was a lot more to that though. There was a whole lot of like more explanation
like it got deep give me give me some more of that theory.
31:01
All
right.
31:04
All
right. Should I just read it?
JD 31:06
Dude get
you know what? Just read it. Here's the thing like the the people that did this
movie went off the rails. We're getting off the rails in this episode. I don't
give a fuck.
31:13
Right.
All right. So I'll read though the guy is alive because Elvis went home. Oh,
this is his was an alien being brought down to earth, particularly in America
to help soothe the racism in this country. In fact, Elvis is an acronym for
ever loving veros intergalactic superior. Elvis had his career in the 50s
through the 70s, which he had he had a hand and the abolition of Jim Crow laws.
How do you influence someone music? Elvis, his music was about songs about love
passion and helping one another. Did you see Jim Crow laws when Elvis died? No.
Leaders nation when the government was on to them, why do you think he met with
Nixon because the government was on to him. That was his voice was so powerful
enough to change the world because he was out of this world. But fair not Elvis
is back. Elvis returned to stamp out racism. Think about it. Who can take over
the world with justice each who can lead people to peace, ladies and gentlemen.
Elvis is Barack Obama. If you think it is silly, but don't think too much.
Elvis love to why Barack Obama is from Hawaii. He did further evidence shows
that in his first campaign, he utters the words to Don't be cruel, and I quote,
Ah ha, hmm. Hey. What's the way Elvis reaches home? The evidence is right
there. Elvis lives on. I hope. That was dramatic reading.
JD 32:58
That was
amazing. But here's the thing is like, I'm the type that like, anything
involving aliens. I'm like, I'm already like, I'm yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I'm
basically gonna be like, I'm gonna walk around like, Elvis died. Racism,
The Ghost
33:21
and then
went home.
JD 33:23
Like,
have you seen racism since Elvis was gone?
The Ghost
33:25
No, we
went completely off the rails. It was super mario bros movie to Elvis. It's
like the movie, man. We don't give a fuck. We're going off the
JD 33:37
fucking
Exactly. That's what I'm saying is like, they went off the rails. We're going
off the rails too. But you know what, we should talk about the movie a little
bit. So let's get back to a little bit so I got to say Toad actually was I
loved him. So Toad was basically like a script like an angry street
33:52
hippie.
Yeah.
JD 33:54
Like he
was like, like this one solo protester just out there. Like, oh, man, you got
to bring down King Cooper man, King Cooper. He's a bad dude. He doesn't mean
The Ghost
34:03
I hated
that. That they did that he didn't like that. Like that's that's not told man
to mushroom.
34:11
Well,
you know what I mean? How told us a mushroom but here's the thing.
JD 34:16
Okay, so
here's the I can give them credit for making tau just a regular guy. If
everybody in the Mushroom Kingdom or Dino Houghton is just a regular guy. I did
find it kind of interesting, though. The way they did the devolving thing into
a Goomba. That was pretty interesting. Yeah, I didn't actually despise that.
Like I thought that was an interesting angle of like, this is how he's getting
his army.
34:40
Yeah, I
would agree with you on that. You didn't like
The Ghost
34:42
it? Just
Hey, I don't know. how I feel about the movie just.
JD 34:52
What
don't you like nothing.
The Ghost
34:53
It's not
that I don't there's nothing wrong with it. It's just I don't know, man. I just
this movie. Ghost in 94 this movie fucked me up because I was expecting
something and it's still today. PTSD. I this movie is. That's not Mario. I'm
sorry.
JD 35:13
This may
be this may be one of the earlier also like one of the earlier examples of a
video game movie. I think this came out before. A lot like this.
35:23
The
first it is technically the first that was really wide. Yeah. And I think
that's one of the other things is, at this time, you got to think like the very
first like really widespread video game was atari and Atari hadn't really been
out for like maybe 10 years, right? Like you had colico vision, but that wasn't
really big like, right, you know, that was maybe early 80s, late 70s, so to
speak. So like
JD 35:50
there
wasn't a lot of that at home as much as there was like arcades and such. And
35:55
then the
people who were like, going to see this and the people they were marketing to
as we as everybody loves Nintendo right now. Oh my god, this is so good. Yeah,
we got it's appealing. AB like 10 to 14 year olds, baby.
36:13
Yeah.
36:13
I'm
thinking in the mind of a suit that's in the middle of a boardroom like, Oh,
we've got to get this because profits are going to go up. Look at
JD 36:22
the
charts. Check out the charts. I mean, there's Nintendo,
36:25
Nintendo
in a movie. How could it go wrong? How could I By the way, that's how the suit.
Yeah.
36:32
Yeah,
definitely have a suit sound.
The Ghost
36:36
They had
us from the start, man. I mean, the wife, the husband, wife, Director duo. It
just didn't work, man. I mean, I love my wife. And I don't think we can direct
a movie.
JD 36:48
We're
we're all I would say we're all three. We're already married men like we I
think we could all safely say, I don't know if directing a movie with my wife
is Yeah, one undertake now.
36:59
Oh, fuck
no, no,
JD 37:01
I love
her to death. But I'm not working on that big of a project with like, that's
just insanity.
37:06
No, no,
I love my wife. You know, my wife and I actually did we had a theater. We had a
theatre company in college. And it flopped because of that. Wow. Really? Like
it was the two of us trying to control everything. And like she had a vision. I
had a vision. We just butted heads the whole time. Yeah.
The Ghost
37:26
And
that's I honestly think that's, that's what happened in this movie. That's what
I honestly believe. That's That's the problem.
37:33
Yeah,
there was something I read about that, that they just fought the entire time
because one person wants to be right over the other. Two, could
JD 37:41
you
imagine how fucking awkward that will be? Like, if like you're trying to make a
movie, like, let's say like you. Okay, let's say you're like, like, you are
into Mario and you got the part in this movie. And like, you're like, excited
about you? Yeah, that's gonna be awesome. And then you got to go to work. And
you got to deal with like, not one director, but two directors who are married
and constantly it's, it would follow production comments.
The Ghost
38:06
I think
it reflects this. I mean, he threw $48 million at these two motherfuckers. And
look what happened that that should cost $48 million. Dude. Where did the money
go? They just threw it at him. And they did what they wanted. It's You ruined a
good movie. I could have been a good potentially good movie, but it flopped.
miserably.
JD 38:29
It did
flop it did flop. badly. Bad always horrible. Yeah. I mean, I don't know if I
mean, dude, here's the thing. Like, like, here's some other shit. Like, like,
Lance henriksen makes a fucking movie. And it's still could that's still
couldn't say that.
The Ghost
38:49
I mean,
the soundtrack couldn't save it. How many fucking legendary bands were
involved?
JD 38:55
No. Now,
actually, that is hilarious. Like, so I was looking over the soundtrack here,
dude, you've got Joe Satriani. Anybody at home doesn't know Joe Satriani is you
do he is he's been he's done a lot of like movies like movies and stuff. He's
incredible guitars like legendary status guitar Yeah, then you've got negative
doing shit you've got Queen doing shit George Clinton doing shit. And then you've
got Marky Mark
39:31
you guys
are the hottest thing since Marky Mark and the funky bunch
39:37
that
The Ghost
39:41
are on
the same bill wow legendary musicians dude and then like
JD 39:50
there's
even some other bands like even other like like extreme like did I think for
that and like, like you say what you want about extreme but like Nuno
Bettencourt is fucking Incredible guitars Do you think that Donnie and Mark
Wahlberg are anywhere
The Ghost
40:05
not even
close?
40:09
Oh my
god.
JD 40:11
So, so
you Okay, so bro You were saying you didn't like the guma thing go back to
that. What didn't you like about that? I didn't hate that part.
The Ghost
40:19
You just
small fucking heads with the big body.
JD 40:22
I'm
talking about the actual process so like, they capture toad. They devolve him
into a into a Goomba and that's what they came up with. I'm not even talking
about the fucking little head that I thought it was interesting if nothing
else, but like what you didn't like the first I
The Ghost
40:37
mean
it's fine it's fine it's just I can't have that one thing just because that one
thing is sprinkled in and it's it's adjust Okay, and everything else it
crumbles around it and I can't that thing cannot hold it up man. It's I even if
even if that is good it's just this movies that bad that that doesn't hold it
up for me. Alright, so
JD 41:00
what
would you have done with like,
The Ghost
41:02
what
would you have done brother I wouldn't have even done this I would have fucking
burned this piece of shit rewrote from the start seriously
JD 41:15
so in
the games browser is always trying to like control the Mushroom Kingdom or
dinos and in this case, but I think his plan in this Okay, so like his plan on
this was to merge the two worlds. Right. Right. And then yeah, his his idea
he's gonna merge the two worlds. And then he's gonna conquer the earth world,
which, okay, that same plot fucking happened in Mortal Kombat.
41:47
directly.
41:48
Holy
shit. Yeah.
41:49
They
just Yeah, you're you're. You're right. Holy shit.
JD 41:54
Wow.
Yeah. Um, yeah. What other connections to
41:59
make
it's just bouncing around my brain already to have a stroke.
JD 42:06
That's
fucking with the internet.
42:09
With me,
bro.
JD 42:10
Like the
exact same plot of Mario. Like, like, broad strokes plot is Yeah, he's just one
evil dude is trying to take over the like our world from beyond video game
world.
42:25
How was
he not Trump?
JD 42:27
Did he's
definitely Trump. Like that. Okay, so like I imagined I know Hatton is what
would happen if like we allowed Trump for?
The Ghost
42:37
Like,
yeah, we're just gonna be like capturing hippies off the street and, and I know
that in his mind, his mind.
JD 42:45
And it's
gonna be the greatest I knew I knew had never lived in dinu Hatton All my life
I said dyno, Hatton is my home, you see? It's gonna be huge, down the hall, and
to the left.
43:01
To the
left. And to the left.
The Ghost
43:11
Dennis
Hopper is Dennis Hopper. He's, I think that is supposed to be Trump. But why?
Dennis Hopper? You did speed Two years later, man. What the fuck were you
thinking dude?
JD 43:25
Actually,
let's explore that. I wonder if he got any inspiration from that, like
legitimate? I
The Ghost
43:29
don't
know.
43:31
Well, I
mean, he just had a kid. He just had a kid that point. So he's looking for
something. Yeah, he's looking for something to say, oh, all the kids are into
this. They'll see dad in that movie. And not a lot of actors have done that. I
can't Yeah. Like jack nicholson, who was with him and easy writer. I did a
couple of movies and you know, throughout his career where it's like, my kids
will be here. And just absolutely terrible. Like he one of his last movies he
ever did was with Adam Sandler called anger management, which he wasn't so bad,
but he's playing against Adam Sandler. And he's like, I'm jack nicholson and
Adam Sanders. But yes, movie. Like, that's the movie but like Dennis, everybody
has this word. Dennis Hopper is known for doing this one thing and sometimes,
like you got to think like Robert DeNiro did a movie called and I know I'm
seeming like I'm off the rails, but I'm getting to a point. Now. Robert, Robert
De Niro did a movie called dirty grandpa. Yeah, right. And what would Zac Efron
and because he was just so tired of being that Robert De Niro character that's
an every one of us and I love that right? I like he's great. I love it too. But
he just like I need to do some thing else and artistically, it made sense. And
when you think about it that way, like Dennis Hopper just needing to do
something else other than being the Dennis Hopper, yeah,
The Ghost
45:11
I'll
give you that. Well, you
45:13
know
what it's, it's,
JD 45:14
it's
also kind of a chance to ham it up. Because I mean, at that point, like, Dennis
Hopper isn't hurting for anything, he can leave at that point. You can say, you
know what, I'm gonna take a weird ass project, I'm gonna have some fun with us.
45:25
I'm
gonna,
JD 45:26
I'm
gonna, I'm gonna it's gonna be stupid. It's gonna be weird. I don't care if I
make money on it. It's gonna be crazy. It's gonna be fun. And I feel like
that's kind of the approach he took with that, which, you know, at that point,
he's trying to let his guard down. He's trying to make something for his kid.
But I'm wondering, though, I mean, I wonder if he did pull any actual
inspiration, like for how the character behave from real life? Donald Trump, he
was active at that time,
The Ghost
45:47
possibilities.
I mean, I wouldn't be surprised but possibilities.
JD 45:53
Yeah,
well, I've heard a lot of actors have done a lot of like villains of play.
Yeah. Oh, who was it? Um, I'm gonna, I completely forgot who it was. But there
was somebody It was like a big one. Gordon Gekko was from Wall Street. was
definitely was an actual like part of him was inspired by Donald Trump among
other people, like Jordan Belfort Belfort, Donald Trump, a bunch of people that
inspire get, you know,
The Ghost
46:24
this
movie had actual potential when you actually just look at the cast. And there's
one particular cast member or a crew member, somebody that's part of it. The
movie is one particular person I was telling you about this, it stood out that
I blew it blew my mind that this person was involved. And that's Alan Silvestri
dude. The guy that did the score for this movie. I'm like Alan Silvestri did
the guy that did Back to the Future. And Forrest Gump. Are you fucking serious?
Dude, I lost my shit. I'm like, no way he took that job he did. He is the
fucking guy at the discord to this movie. And he probably was like, Oh, it's
the Mario movie decal. Yeah, I want to score it. I'm sorry, Alan. I'm so sorry.
You're a brilliant man.
JD 47:13
At the
time it probably see the time
The Ghost 47:15
it did
he probably regrets every fucking second of that shit, dude, trust me.
JD 47:19
I mean,
you know what he probably still make some money from it. So like, like, it is
what it is like, it's like it's a weird mark on your history. But you know,
something to talk about. I'll tell you one of the one of the people that was
like actually approached to play Koopa that I feel like they just ended up
doing this later on a Batman movie, but Arnold Schwarzenegger was actually
going to be really Hoopa geezers, that would have been pretty amazing.
Actually. I feel like he would have been exactly who wasn't Batman and Robin.
47:49
Yeah.
The Ghost
47:53
Which is
Hold on a minute that that's not a joke. Y'all know that right that that was
supposed to happen. That that's like a real thing. That Yeah, actually was
supposed to be king club that Imagine that. I would have
JD 48:08
I would
have loved that.
48:10
Yeah, it
I think we would have been talking about the movie very differently right now.
That actually happened.
JD 48:17
Agreed.
I'm now he was in like his
48:22
vows.
JD 48:27
I'm a
little surprised he didn't take it because like he was actually in that
The Ghost
48:38
I cannot
see the Terminator.
48:42
I can't
I can't do with the bob bob get to the chopper. Mario and Luigi. Okay,
plumbers, I'll be back. But to get an aneurism, like he would have totally said
that what he's being
JD 49:06
like, he
he was doing like the weird like this was when he was in kind of his like, not
taking himself so yeah, actually era like, actually. Danny DeVito
49:15
Oh,
okay. Dude, this
JD 49:19
could
have this could have been planned. Let's think about how much better this
fucking movie would have been. It could have been collaborated a lot in the 90s
if it had been Arnold Schwarzenegger as browser and divito as Mario,
The Ghost
49:35
I want
to point one thing out, gentlemen, I want I have to point what just one thing
out I love. I love how shit this movie is. It's so shit that we can't even talk
about the movie itself. We have to talk about the cool shit. Right? That's
fucked up.
49:54
Potential
that it had.
49:57
Right
now just thinking about My scene would have been like you know we had that
little biome that's crawling around that little guy just walk it just wandering
you know a day to beat Oh no, I got this is for you to take you know Could you
take the
50:18
title
and diagnose plumbers
50:23
yeah I
watched some clips of this like Did anybody notice like the the shoes on the
bomb were Reeboks? I mean
JD 50:32
of
course they were like Reebok Of course how to deal
50:36
like
everybody
JD 50:37
was cash
everybody thought like on paper this shit should have been perfect. So yeah, of
course Reebok like was the bomb shoe. I love that. No, we did the relay.
Because like you don't hear Reebok talking about that. They're like, we weren't
in that
50:52
clip.
And you watch and you see very quick, you see and you see Reebok right above
Cooper's head didn't know that before the bomb drops and you're like I stopped
it. I'm watching this or what? I'm watching. I'm like, Holy fuck. What are you
talking about? Like?
51:14
Uh huh.
JD 51:18
Dude, I
love that I love when that happens. I'll bring something that I'm freaking out
about my wife. She's like cool. Like
The Ghost
51:29
life
would have been completed on a plane I think that's it that's it. I'm good to
go.
51:38
Yeah, I
JD 51:39
still
like I
The Ghost
51:41
feel
like it could ever happen.
JD 51:43
I would
love it to happen.
51:45
He's got
the build for it.
JD 51:47
Yeah,
like cuz yeah browser ease means massive he's supposed to be a bear I
51:53
he's a
big muscular dude. But like even think about like, if it wasn't that like
imagine if it was Terry Crews. Oh my
52:02
god. Oh
my god. Bam. Holy shit.
JD 52:11
I
fucking love I love Terry Crews and everything he does Terry Crews incredible.
I Okay, okay, so Okay, so let's Okay, so let's Okay, so then who would we want
working today if they were going to remake because you know, at some point
they're going to do one of these again. So who working today? I love Terry
Crews for browser who would be good Mario.
52:30
I gotta
go with whose could have done it. Danny DeVito.
JD 52:33
I still
think Yeah, you know what? I think he's still good. So would it be an aging
Mario?
52:39
Yeah.
Danny DeVito man, like,
JD 52:42
I'm in.
I'm in with it. Yeah, honestly. So probably the john Leguizamo I didn't hate
john lewis.
52:48
I would
be good.
JD 52:49
I
thought he was I thought he was fun.
The Ghost
52:51
Now,
Luigi? No. I mean, he looks more like Mario in the movie than Mario himself.
JD 52:59
You
think he could pull off Mario? I think he could. But it's too tall.
53:06
He does.
53:07
Yeah,
right. Yeah,
JD 53:09
except
for the green.
53:10
I think
you got a Terry Crews as bouncer. Yeah. Yeah, put the man I'm just thinking
about this for a moment.
53:19
Yeah.
JD 53:22
We also
need a Princess Peach. Yeah, well, I
53:25
mean, it
was it was Daisy in the so I would say for Daisy, you have some sort of like
peach. It really doesn't matter. But honestly, I think Margot Robbie, yeah,
yeah, I was gonna say Nicole Kidman but yeah, you're right. Yeah, Margot
Robbie. That's
53:40
the one
Yeah. Oh,
53:41
good. call
that one. Um, yeah. Oh man, chump second Luigi, though. All right, who
JD 53:48
we got
who's tall? Who's tall with dark hair?
The Ghost
53:51
Honestly,
yeah, I'm not gonna fucking no joke, gentlemen. But uh, the kid that played the
it reboot. The person that played it. He could play a luigis a lanky he's like
66650 skarsgard Yes. You
JD 54:12
have to
look though. He's got kind of creepy like you tell me that. Sorry. sarsgaard,
something something sarsgaard. Does name.
The Ghost
54:19
Hey,
okay, you know,
JD 54:20
he's got
the right face for it.
54:23
Um,
yeah. Let's see here. Let's try to think of something. But yeah, I would
probably say well, I'm in lieu of Bono's dead.
54:36
Yeah.
54:37
Mmm hmm.
Yeah. I who is Oh, wait, a weird one, but probably a good one. Yeah. And I bet
I got to throw my own and do it. Yeah, but I would say on who is the kid the
guy who played it's almost coming to me but the guy who played a spot In the
new Star Trek movies,
JD 55:01
I
Zachary Quinto
55:04
Yeah, I
can
JD 55:05
actually
see that he's got he's got he's lanky he's dark hair. He could he could do the
face he doesn't always make lately he usually has more of a stiff face, but I
could see him having the range in this one, but also just thinking of him as
Spock.
55:22
Yeah.
Yeah. Zachary Quinto Benedict Cumberbatch taxi that
55:29
to see
that? Yeah.
55:33
Yeah,
JD 55:35
he's
good and everything he does, but yeah, but would he accept a second fiddle
role? hmm yeah, what
55:41
he would
play on.
55:44
So Khan
is a villain though.
55:47
Yeah,
you're right. Your idea. I think if it was enough thrown at him, but I'm okay.
Now. I gotta throw my own into this. I gotta say Luigi, Christopher.
55:59
Mario,
where are we going?
56:01
Hey, you
know it's my name is he's MK he's Mario, Mario. And Luigi Mario. Yeah. Mario,
JD 56:10
Mario,
and Mario, Luigi, Mario.
56:13
Luigi,
Mario. Hey. Hey,
JD 56:16
you're
talking to my girl wrong? You do it again. I'm gonna stab you in the face with
a soldering iron. Let me ask you this. This Princess Peach so
56:25
yeah,
56:27
so that
56:34
I'm not
even gonna try to talk that that was awesome.
The Ghost
56:39
There's
literally nothing here the movie gives me nothing to say it offers no
entertainment is boring as shit. It is. The flow is fucking everywhere. Dude.
It's just bad.
56:51
Well,
here's the thing. Here's
The Ghost
56:51
the
thing. It does.
JD 56:53
It does
offer a little bit of entertainment in in the so bad. It's good category. Yeah.
I would even say guilty pleasure. Kind of honestly. Something like
57:06
I think
it's one of those movies. You can hang out,
The Ghost
57:08
Nick.
Um, we had a better
57:11
a better
time with the room.
The Ghost
57:15
Dude, it
flows like tissue paper. Yeah, that's how it flows. I don't know if I saw that
yet. Right. I don't even know what that means. That's how shitty it is.
57:26
Well,
that's nice. Oh, wait. Oh, there's an idea though. If you have Tommy wise. Oh,
my
57:32
fucking
god.
57:37
I don't know
why I'm here. But I haven't I know hat and we got to go. My name is Luigi
Mario. That's my brother. Mario. Mario. Mario, Luigi. Mario.
57:58
Come on.
Let's go home.
58:05
I did
not blow it.
58:08
I did
not thought Oh,
The Ghost
58:12
my Mario.
Oh, hi, Mark.
JD 58:17
But
regardless, regardless of everything that was happening in the end, just like
in level eight, just like in the final weird Island one and super just like, I
don't know, I actually never got to the end of two because it was fucking
weird. But like at the end of it was Mario triumphed with the help of Luigi
defeated Koopa and set the world right. And that's what happened. It was. It
was an odd movie, to say the least.
58:46
Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah, you're right. Yeah.
JD 58:51
Well,
probably for good reason, actually. Because Because this movie was the last one
that Nintendo allowed to make into a live action movie until 2009.
59:01
Right.
And that's where they that's where they finally did something right.
JD 59:06
They
actually really got that one. Right. Like the detective Pikachu.
59:11
Yeah, I
think if they were worked, so wait, and just let it let it play out. Let it be
written and just take their time with it. Yes. be mad groaning and, and my
crease of the simpson Yeah, want to write the Simpsons Movie. But what they
wanted to do is they wanted to tease it out for like six years. And now Jean
fucked it up and then announced that they were doing a movie. Yeah, that's
another another podcast another day. Right. Exactly. And you know, but then
they did they did it. And like that movie. It's all right. But that if they did
what they wanted to do for the Simpsons Movie with this, and they just teased
it out slowly. Yeah, especially in a pre internet. That world where you just
got a random ad somewhere or some random TV commercial just lay it out slowly
and all of a sudden years later it finally shows up shit I want to go see that
right now.
JD 1:00:15
I do too
and like dude detective peak is good they did not like strike while the iron
was hot with like the popular Pokemon like Pokemon had its major up and then it
it tapered off and evened out. And they waited and they I'm sorry they pulled
out and
The Ghost
1:00:31
they did
now a god
JD 1:00:32
he did
it was like when I was watching it it. It took me right back to Saturday
morning cartoons watching Pokemon and go. I should see it. Was it. Ryan Ryan
Reynolds doing the fucking voice? Yeah, you can hear me You can Oh, you can
hear me.
1:00:51
He did
great. And he was just right around the same time. It's not an original
Nintendo property. But they did Sonic the Hedgehog. And that one was awesome.
JD 1:01:02
I didn't
see it. I was off by the initial. It was okay. Okay,
1:01:08
it was
just my wife and I are really big fans of the old Saturday morning cartoon and
she was like huge. She's a huge fan of
JD 1:01:16
the
games. That was the one where they were like obsessed with chili dogs right?
thing like they were like, we're gonna go to chili dog when it's like always
going for chili dog.
1:01:24
There
were two Saturday morning cartoons. And, you know, they they It was a movie of
perfectly like the movie theater was filled with people who were our age and
just like wanting to see this finally. And then everybody in the theater got
it. Yeah, like, everybody got the jokes. And even the stuff that went over the
heads. Like there was there was fan nostalgia stuff and you know, rollbacks?
Yeah, and like little stuff you'd see on Reddit if you were absolutely obsessed
with it with weird Sonic fan art, and they even explored rule 34 a little bit
and really, they nailed it. They nailed it. And if they would have waited like
the Super Mario movie would have been way better. Well, instead of rushing it
because they want to get ahead of before now
The Ghost
1:02:14
it's
just I think if they had a better director this movie could have went a better
way and a better written script. The script went to shit fucking plays so I
mean, do you get what you get writing is the most important thing when it comes
to this you fuck up the writing fuck the director. If you have shit, right?
1:02:32
If it
was like a Spielberg or like a who's the guy who the really pretentious guy who
did Avatar and Cameron
JD 1:02:41
would
love cameras
1:02:45
thank
you if it was like a camera and saying it would have been way better
JD 1:02:48
dude
actually I would love to see camera and direct yeah any any video game of
really like I feel like he could take like fucking like paper boy and make it
something great. On that note, Nick, tell us what what kind of what you guys
got going on over it movie theater time machine right
1:03:09

jack nicholson and we're also exploring the Yeah, for April we are exploring
the musical movies, the ones that you look at and go oh, that's kind of
interesting. And you go What the fuck was that? Yeah. And we have Sergeant
Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club which is band which is not with the Beatles. And
lining up also the who's rock or Tommy? Oh, shit.
1:04:02

okay, cool, man. So April's gonna be some weird musical stuff. I love it. I
love it. So we're gonna have links to all of that in the episode description
obviously, also, I'm gonna grab. Check out Episode 208. I got to be on that
episode moodier Time Machine. Go go hear about the nuclear Wessels and have
fun. So this has been the Mario Brothers movie. I know we went completely off
the rails on that. But we do have a new blog that is out. Actually. We weren't
really even doing anything with the blog, but you can think Martin giegi from
the last episode. He definitely inspired the rotten pickles situation. So
rotten pickles is now a thing. And then we went totally off the rails on this
episode. So I'm going to do a proper movie review on Rotten pickles. So look
for that, I'll have that out at some point and a further development on the
movie. So at the time of recording, we had not had a chance to actually watch
the movie because we couldn't fucking find it anywhere. Well, I spoke to my mom
actually, as I do, and just proof that my mom is actually cooler than yours.
And pretty soon after recording this, I received a package and my mom had
actually sent me a DVD copy of the Mario Brothers movie. So I do now have it.
But I want to give a shout out to my mom, because my mom is awesome. I love
you. My mom rolls. So definitely want to thank Nick for movie theater Time
Machine had an absolute blast. Check them out look for us at some point, I
don't even know when the ghost and I are going to be joining Nick and the gang
on that. Can't wait for that. So make sure to check that out. Tune in next week
on April 20. We are rolling out new episode format, it's going to be our very
first versus episode. And I don't think we're going to have a better title for
that episode format until probably way after it's been released. So the moment
we're just calling it a vs. But the ghost and I are going to be taking stir of
echoes and we're gonna be putting up against the sixth sense, the sixth sense.
So tune in now it's gonna be a lot of fun, as always want to thank Lola and
sugar for all the work they're doing. This month, we are focusing on nanny,
we're trying to raise funds for the National Alliance on Mental Health. So you
know, it's one of those things where if you know, you're not feeling good look
into some of the resources, you know, you might not be mentally right at the
moment. We all get that way. It's perfectly normal. So maybe looking at some of
the resources they have on their website. I'm gonna have that in the episode
