at it seems like all the rational reasonable people are the ones who aren't in charge of making any of the rules Is like all of these platforms are shitty Every single one is just shit and I'd be willing to believe that there are just single actors in the middle of youtube stuff That's like, you know what?  I'm gonna boot it.  Yeah, and they can do that That's an interesting one because even if he was to I guess he would have to violate to you. That's pretty bad for this to not apply But like because he's the president We need him to have twitter. We need to see what he's saying. Yeah, he's the head of state. Yeah Like we even even people who hate him would be like, no, no, no I need to like see what we need is what he's thinking about what he's planning on doing Like it's super useful as a look into what's going on in the world. So Which by the way, you know moves the argument forward about is twitter Like the difference between a platform created by a private company versus like a public space at this point because of the evolution of it You know people talk about if you get banned from all of the major social media network platforms And especially in cobit times Is that like a form of basically just silencing a person forever? I mean, yeah Uh, I'm a fairly libertarian guy. I generally don't you know, I'm generally not in favor of regulation if it isn't really necessary But I feel that these companies are they're clearly in cahoots with one another and they have way too much power over public discourse and Politics and they meddle way too much that they shouldn't have the protections that they do Well, of course all fueled by them thinking they have the right answers right because everyone does um, yeah, naturally, but There's reasons why It's so obvious counter arguments all that stuff But the complication is like so at what point of growth do they have to um sign over The platform to like the government or some shit or publicly Or the thing is that there's not really any precedent for these companies getting to this size It's and it's it's like borderline monopolistic. It essentially is Yeah, like there is no competitor to like the twitter facebook And youtube youtube You can add twitch into that because Interestingly, you'd think twitch and youtube would be competitors, but they really are the streaming site and the video site Even though they both do both I'm getting banned on both is a nightmare for a lot of people if you add facebook twitter and instagram Whatever else to all of those which by the way, I I've never understood banning someone across the board all these things At the same time it's like guys.  Isn't that kind of productive?  I assume they're referring to ben's opinions on star wars Well, it could be ben Kyle ben Shapiro He had some he really likes la risa skywalker and his main reasoning is how it it poops on tlj Which you know odd odd Reasons for all of his stuff very unusual man I was glad we covered it though. We got some really good discussion out of it. Yeah We had our rankings and everything Ben channeling psacich here.  Oh, there are plenty of jews that make good star wars takes come on name three Uh Sean wassowitz He's the guy who made that video that said uh empire's the best one Sean wassowitz. Uh, yeah, then, uh, uh, kyle clove Clover steen clover schmitt He's another one. So yeah plenty all of us plenty Um, this is bright burn aiden.  So I can't remember is anything about the evil superman I don't know. I don't remember I'm afraid Though uh hot take I don't think bright burn was very good. Uh, I thought I was pretty disappointed Especially because james gunner produced it, but it makes sense that he only produced it because the writing was pretty bad um The story of superman landing and getting parents who aren't quite as perfect as uh the kents And he grows up and gets sort of He's an angry guy in general and you know also gets lessons that could don't quite work as well And then he becomes kind of a psychopath like it's like oh that sounds interesting Wasn't done as well It's a it's what I would call a rich idea This is a poor idea. For example, man goes to the shops like okay But uh, both could be executed well both could be executed like shit And I think the boys is a better example of executing evil superman, which we need to we still need to watch that because Yeah, I guess we did Shouldn't take that long it's like eight episodes. I think they're all 40 minutes So much TV I say this this year has been sort of a desert for for a content as per usual we get in this world, but um so many things to catch up on anyway Edward furlong in terminator two was a great child actor. It just depends on the writing the actors talent and direction Um, I thought he was also in terminator two. There's a couple of lines. I think you can Criticize he cracks his voice a couple times and I don't know if that's an example of um You know something you should retake or well, it's genuine people do crack their voices, you know When you're at that age, what do you think ragu? Yeah, the voice cracking thing i'm not sure It's like if you were directed, we'd be like, oh, let's do that again. Oh, would you be like, well, I mean You know, I guess if it was in like, uh, if it was in If he was under duress At the time, maybe he was really nervous I would be more inclined to keep it instead of he was just Talking regularly. I'm pretty sure the times it happens. He's uh under attack sort of thing All right, then. Yeah, I'd probably keep it in. Well, I mean you've we watched it recently Uh, what are your thoughts on him as an actor john? I really liked it. I really liked him I thought he was fantastic. I did a really good job Even cries on cue or at least Looks as if he is so you know Passes that test Uh jojo rabbit try again aiden.  They're like four years old It's amazing Hi rags Hey, I've been looking into getting a gun for self-defense. I've never owned a gun before so what would you recommend? Uh, get a glock that's super simple extremely reliable durable accurate Uh, extremely customizable. I have two gonna give him the third soon um My carry pistol is a glock 26 um My fun shooty handgun is a glock 17 One that I to me here um I would hire I'd recommend a glock 17 Uh, they come in different sizes Uh different calibers, but I'm just in in When it comes to guns if you're new There's a lot of it's like buying a car, right? There's a lot of correct choices In fact, it's probably harder to make the wrong choice than it is to make the right choice because there's so many different kinds And they overlap to such a huge degree But I am pretty confident in just giving out the good basic recommendations If you're gonna get a car get a corolla or a miata if you're gonna get a gun Get an ar 15 or a glock, you know, just to start things off. Um When I get 47, but Gonna gonna recommend to you a glock 17 Is uh my recommendation if it's for carry purposes, however I would recommend a glock 26 However, if you want to get something super cheap, you could buy really cheap. Um, uh Kind of I'd still say go with a glock 26 That's not something you want to skimp out on get something cheap for really But yeah, if it's for carry defense glock 26 What's a gun that's false? I you'll you kind of want slash have that's less for use more because it's it's that gun I don't know what you mean by that gun. So like um on the shoot worldwide has um like like collectors versus Uh, actually using a second kind of cool. Um, I would say If I had a gun just for that Not to shoot but to just have Not necessarily you could shoot it too, but it wouldn't be what you'd go to for your actual like you need If you needed a gun, it wouldn't be the one you needed you'd go to You want it for coolness not for practicality or for prestige? Uh, just just be like prestige. Um, So a gun for non utility reasons. Um Huh I don't know. It would anything like world war two stuff like maybe even uh, it would probably be um It would probably be either. Yeah, a world war one or world war two kind of weapon something that wasn't Super practical, but was very iconic or very historically significant um So maybe a I don't know. I might go with a uh, uh a webli Well in in Let me make sure um Yeah, probably one of the world war One weblies of world war two Um, because those are cool british revolvers I might get something like a I don't know. That's a good question, but I'd have to think about it Because generally I think about practical stuff when I buy that sort of thing um It might be anything from a I don't know. It'd be cool to have a martini henry um Those were the guns they used in zulu Uh where they they load from the top in the one shot. Those are super cool um I'm I'm not sure though. There's a lot of a lot of stuff out there like that, but I'd have to really think on it Happy 100th. Here's to you all also y'all meme like greek gods Yeah, oh it's crazy. We got some crazy meme makers. They are artists. It's um, and it I don't know. I think It must come from I mean because most people like to make jokes a lot, but uh I don't know what happened with this podcast and people wanting to make memes for it. It just It wasn't many episodes before it just started exploding. I think we we figured out like it's Even in the first episode memes are being made As we saw so it's it's kind of I don't know what it is. It's it was weird though and awesome Something about it, man I don't know what it is If someone was going to say how do you get people to make so many amazing memes? I don't know. I don't know what it is.  It's crazy The if someone collected all memes Like we'd be looking Like because obviously if app.me is tried it's it's not something that's easy to do A lot of memes and we thank you for it Molly you did it.  Oh my god. Yeah I'm supposed to say like dude Like oh my god That's a sticker. Oh well blank. Um the Jedi groomed Anakin for Padme If that were true I'd have so many questions I would have a lot of questions too. That doesn't seem that don't seem rad That that boy Is no one going to talk about is no one going to talk about the creepy age difference between Yoda and literally every character Well, no, maybe Yaddle is uh, yeah Yaddle who Yaddle So the trailer for the lego stars It's called the Skywalker saga Whatever, um Yaddle, is it it like with a lightsaber running around or whatever? It's just like wait a minute. I guess you can play as Yaddle. Uh like the comments are talking about how great it is That you can play as Yaddle. This is what we've always wanted.  Well, I'll try and get you a percentage and No, this is not that good 360 per turn, but I don't know what per turn means in this game Welcome to the third age where you don't even know what per turn means It's a tough one Um, all of my characters are on low and she hasn't been able to cast any self-resurrection yet So just put mountain shield on as a hot hot and i'm pretty sure that provides me like two health bars of protection So we'll be okay Does mountain shield wear off over time? Do you know? No I'm gonna cast aura on myself Bilge What's your birthday 22nd of february? What year every year? Get out. You've seen a hot fuzz, right? I always ask that about everybody I saw it a long time ago needs a rewatch though. It's been a long time It's one of my like best films ever films Oh, I've unlocked the ability to heal the whole team. Is it real? I feel like that outclass is uh Just a little bit Okay, that'll be the ultimate test. Let's see if her move heals us all to full.  That's just because the the items I pick up I've always just pushed the lowest stat up if they're not always equal bonus Gift of the gray haven. Let's do it. It's to the description restores significant health to the group Oh, well significant sounds pretty relative, doesn't it? Yeah, that's the thing with these big pet peeve Tell me what the numbers are. Oh, it fully restores everybody Wow, of course That is significant. That is significant. They didn't lie Um, I think Queen Elizabeth looks cute and I don't have a relationship with her Oh, this is all about the the relationship between Anakin and Padme, of course sweet, um Yeah, I mean a lot of a lot of guys Uh, a lot of kids just get crushes and shit.  She's cute. You know, I would downright goes far saying they were careful to avoid any Sense that that was going on in the first film Yeah, I didn't get any anything like that out of it. They're just friendly. That's it EF100 on my birthday, how many people had their birthday on EF100? Geez. Wow We picked a good day. Yeah Hi rags and guests. Hey question for rag thoughts on ghost in the shells Tac Tacocomas Tachacomas Tachacomas uh So, you know how I say whenever I talk about the rare times I mentioned ghost in the shell or Yeah, that's the the animes that I like Let's say I like them for reasons that have nothing to do with them being animes And the parts that I like the least amount about them are the most anime parts Hmm then you ghost in the shell Tachacomas they're the they're the the spider tanks um And they have and I don't like them In function, they're fine, but they have these really annoying cutesy high-pitched child robot voices And it's annoying and it makes no sense that they have these voices and it's clearly the anime trope Of the weird cutesy comedy character that isn't funny, but they're supposed to be And I don't like that about them in the show and It doesn't make any sense that they'd have these voices and I hate it Hate them Just to clarify you do like when you say you like it for reasons that have nothing to do with anime You could say the same for like I like two minute or two that has nothing to do with action and comedy as as genres because anime is only Well, why say anime tropes the tropes of anime the the recurring sorts of things that you see um with characters and That's the the the mannerisms and things of that nature Yeah, just it just it sounds strange to say like I like the parts of it the like Almost as if if it wasn't if it wasn't an anime if if it was identical to what it is, but it wasn't an anime I would still like it probably equally um Maybe not but very potentially equally because I don't like it because it's an anime. It's just really good and it happens to be an anime Well, couldn't you say that about everything? Um, you don't like something because it's a game or because it's a book I only see anime is just another medium. I don't see there's anything more than that But it does have its tropes which will have its own stylizations and its tropes to it and The parts in it that I don't like happen to be Things that are commonly done in anime in anime um whereas if like the avengers civil war or captain america civil war if that was a different Kind of something else if it was a comic book if it was a Animated something or other. I would probably really really like it if everything else was equal um but I don't like the The the the I guess we've already said it more time. So um Yeah, because like there's a good example with civil war because like what what are the How does civil war suffer in terms of being a part of its greater medium and I'd be like, um a tad of you get a tad like sanitized sort of representation of everything like Where there would be more blood more death more destruction that they'll reduce it just because of its its position in terms of media they'll often um get loads and loads of details wrong in terms of uh Bullet counts what guns are being used though that that could be something that's addressed in like most mediums The there's going to be a constant sort of attempt to balance drama and comedy. That's something people bring up a lot about Marvel movies, but um, I would say that's I'm not a huge fan of saying that's marvel have done that to the world rather. I think most people try to achieve that It's just that's way past marvel Because I mean That's been going on forever like the idea of trying to have funny things while also doing dramatic things So you can account for a double set of experiences.  You can do it though It's just that a comedy and drama seem to be the ones that people love to play with the most and so Yeah, what i'm saying is like someone could say I enjoy civil war just uh But I think Like the parts of it that I that I don't like the most are all just parts of what it's a part of in terms of It's a medium or position in media Because a lot of people get upset by The idea that you the only anime you like are ones that you're like it's nothing to do with anime for why they're good they're like, hey um, well, I don't think that if someone maybe someone could because my My I have it's not like I haven't watched anime Like I there's a reason why I generally don't like it. It's because a lot of those stuff that I've watched that's anime I just haven't liked and Some of my favorite like I said ghosts in the shell is insanely good. I love it and Full metal alchemist samurai champloo Like there are some shows that I really like that are anime But I don't It wasn't because they were anime that I liked them It was because of the characters and the writing and the story and the plot and you know the messages that were inside of them It wasn't because they were anime It was it's kind of coincidental But isn't that redundant because you wouldn't say that about anything right in terms of its Medium or genre you don't like anything because it's horror because it's a western or because it's Um, I would I would say they were a little different in the sense that anime is a sort of style more than it Okay, one. I guess I should be I want to clarify when I said when I'm using anime in this kind of sense I'm talking about the stylizations and the recurring themes and the Aspects of anime not like as a genre Like horror or um, you know adventure things like that. Uh-huh It's it's the stylizations That are present within anime I suppose then because I kind of feel this way. I like them because they don't seem to be Anime like animes if that makes sense. Yeah, there's nothing I go to anime for that. I can't get anywhere else Yeah, meanwhile, there are things in anime that annoy me that aren't as present in other things Yes, I'd say that's a good way to say it when I when I'm presented with an anime to watch or Someone says watch this. It's an anime. I get more turned off because I hear it's an anime than interested in it I'm I'm I'd say I'm close But not quite like so it depends on who's saying it and what it's like premise is because like a lot of anime is always just saying Like if it was you it would be one thing But if it's just a random guy or even an anime, you know aficionado It like if it was someone who's super into anime, I would be extremely hesitant to watch anything they recommend to me Uh, but if it was someone it was a casual observer I would be much more inclined to want to watch it if they recommended an anime And I would want to clarify with a lot of people that it sounds as though it sounds like you're really biased against It's like well, I've just I've seen a lot that all does the same stupid shit And I feel like people are very forgiving uh with anime weird. Yeah, I think I've noticed that too People are extremely forgiving when anime does it we brought up This was coming up in like the first 10 episodes of efab It would be you you point out this thing in efab the ha sorry in anime that happens That when it happens in western media or mainstream media, uh from wherever will people be like, yeah, that's stupid But what happens when you do it with anime is well in fairness. It's anime You're like, what are you? Oh, yeah, it's just anime. Oh, isn't that silly? Isn't it funny?  We make jokes about it. We meme about it and it's and it's not totally bad at all Because it's an anime. I feel very um passionate about in terms of like expertly representing characters is Not having them explicitly say how they think and feel all the time which bugs me Makes it harder for me to believe they're a real person and it also leaves very little for you to think about So you're like, oh, that's yep. That's yeah, I I Feel like anime a lot of it, especially a lot that I've seen it's written for children I feel like they have such little faith in their audience to get things That they have to have that moment where it's almost like they realize Oh, we have to make sure that a child could understand this And we have to be explicit about things. They do this a lot with uh, western media too. The last of us two didn't have Didn't have the flashback to Joel When she was sparing thingy and they put it in because they were worried people wouldn't understand Why she spared her and people still don't understand why she spared her Yeah, I It definitely isn't unique to anime.  I guess it just seems really horrible to me overall You know, I'll say there's some great ones out there. Just oh, yeah, absolutely.   It's an anime Oh my god, and I know that when I reference people like, oh my god more more likes anime and I was like, yeah No, we like that anime You don't like when they refer to it as an umbrella term of genre just applying or medium Like well, yeah, I don't I can't I can't hate a medium or a genre like they wouldn't even make sense, you know Um, if you refer to it in that sense, I just have a general dislike for it based on what I've seen Like it's so much of it's terrible Yeah, I mean And if you like it, you like it, but I sure don't I'm sure that maybe my mind could be changed I don't know what we're saying is even controversial because friends of mine who adore anime 90 of the labeled anime They go through is like no that one shit.    Um, what have we been saying for the past few years? That basically like 90 of mainstream movies are terrible, so Uh, it's all POV sort of stuff. I just um, I think people probably wouldn't be surprised by which anime we enjoy and don't Because um, I even that's really well written with good characters and well, I even said I enjoyed Code Geass, but uh that um That thing with the killing all the Japanese It's like, uh, excuse me. Let me that I was just about my jaw Smacked to the floor Which isn't as impressive because I am a doggo and my jaw is closer to the floor than most people however It went there. It went there No, it's it wasn't impressive because you were on a cliff's edge when you did it. So that went Looking over you Uh, is she implying that I could be considered as grooming that I could be considered as grooming I don't know what you're referring to Uh tpm isn't a sexy film two words creamy sheave Well, yeah, I think I did mention that when we were having the back and forth that I do Except the palpatine is hot, but other than that. I don't think there's really a lot in the film. That's a sexy quote unquote Um, give me a moment. Maybe he's the loo and I'll be right back. Yes Target party member takes the next action. That's the one I want You know had hard maybe low on mana, but he's got enough to do another one of those moves And hey, we'll just give him some mana between fights Have you guys noticed the polano fields is just one open field We run forward and then fight fight fight fight fight.  We're at sarron, which by the way, we're nowhere near finishing these super chats. So I'm probably gonna run to super simpsons hit and run as my my go to my safety blanket game and then We'll probably try to start up another one It's uh, my goodness Poor third age. It's it's chunked out. What is it? We're at seven eight nine and a half hours Oh Bad hot is deceased You know, I'm surprised One boosted flames of ruin and a flames of ruin and they're all still kind of Chugging away Are we all alive? Is the game finally catching up to me? It's terrifying. All right. Well, we'll just walk all the more dangerous ones like you I mean about it. It's gonna be a drill first. She'll use lab water fury. So we'll throw it into this guy. Hopefully it kills him If it doesn't bear a thought we'll follow up Oh, that's not great news actually because if we don't get a turn from idril Uh, we might die That's a death. I wonder if you can build tanky in this game Or if it's even worthwhile Your fools I will bring back hard hot. Does it refresh his mana? I can't remember Oh, fuck I did the wrong one Yeah, we're veering in on hour eight of the uh, super chance apparently so Dream is definitely trying to catch up Undin's clan We got perfect mode as well See so the bad guys were like totally close to winning and then no Also barathol. Yeah, it does refresh their mana.  I think I might just do this We have one discussion about tpm without it devolving into a tism show of a debate I'll read that out again once the rags is back, but that is the funny one We've only talked about it twice though And the attack of the clones well now it well, right?  What does it say? Ride to ruin Gotta join him and Fight for the king. Okay pretty simple. I mean, I know polano fields is a field, but He still just feels so lazy How many times do I cast this move at this point? There are A staggering amount of volcanoes all over minster earth at this point. I I'm terrified to think As long as you can harvest their energy, it's probably worthwhile Yeah I have to imagine that move is not going to do anything to saron. He's kind of made of fire But I am still going to look for the perfect payoff of having a wag attack saron That shit's funny You know, it's weird you'd think Berathor would have had an attack that lets him go after multiple Enemies at the same time You know, it's one of them then another one then another one sort of thing They gave it to the bowman Maybe that's their sense of balance coming in. I shouldn't complain too much Mr. Rags, are you back? I love that pig snort And back up my health goes I remember when I played this game way back when that I'd always want the biting blade attached just for that Even if it was like The chunk less damage Damn, he's missing all those counter attacks What chance do you think you'll have? Uh, you're weaker Oh I see it doesn't matter You know that pincer attack feels like it's probably not a good idea Like it'll blunt the two ends of your swords I suppose I wouldn't you know, I'm not a sword expert. But just saying Wow, what a mirror Oh, no No, or you'll be fine so Hmm I guess we'll just bring it back because I don't want to risk anything Spooky happening here with the mogul mirror active We will do a loud water fury. I don't know if mirror reflects loud water fury if it doesn't Oh dear So it's spirit and uh General attacks, which means if I do a mountain shield It'll be cancelled out. I'll see you back. Yes Um just got here seven hours into the stream I predict this will be read at hour 32 Bad prediction, this was read at technically if you if you count this recording on top of E5 100 stream we are currently at 789 we're nearly at hour 40 so Close but no cigar And if you count all of the hours in between now and when episode 100 happened online or not then has you Suddenly it's very far away Um Here's a dollar for every episode now. I'm off to make an Isle of Man drink blood sweat and tears vodka Campari and milk that is drank after eating a pepperoncini enjoy That's thank you very much. It's very generous. That's an Isle of Man drink. All right That's cannon now everyone Yeah, I hope it tastes nice Um Yeah, I saw this one earlier. I thought it was funny. Can't we have one discussion about the phantom men is without it devolving into a tism show of a debate No, no because that film is terrible and some people don't think it's terrible. Oh, well, I don't think they're they're referring to that They're referring to um, how it seems to go to me because even the attack the clones one went fine Yeah, that one was fine. I wonder how the revenge of the sith one will go I'm sure people be very rational. I'm sure that will not be a controversial episode. No Been a fan of practically everyone before efab finally started listening when the pandemic started Now I can't stop listening and i'm trying to hone my critical eye to start making reviews myself. Bless the dawn Irags Oh, hello Um Yeah, it's the kind of thing I think that um There's a whole bunch of fans of rags and I the probably like I watch their videos. I'm not going to watch this this weird podcast, but uh It's always like a you might you might like it. You never know Because because it's quite daunting, right? It's like, oh, how many are there's like a month's worth of content non-stop. It's like, uh, yeah All right, and it's like Gun for a topic You have some interest in you know, maybe Is this a pointless conversation? Well, we were trying to end it. We will like it. Yeah, I was yeah, we were ready to Move put a cap on it and move along Um, it was mediocre, but she seems nice I don't know what that was referencing Yeah, not sure what that's Here we are now Entertain us That's what the super chat says Hopefully we did Hell yeah, it's jeff hicks Oh, yeah, we uh, I think that's where we traded a couple of um a couple of our members for other members and drinker popped on as well critical drinker Imagine being critical and drinking at the same time crazy Kids love seeing quigon get murdered Oh, this is probably in reference to people saying it's like a kids film. I guess I don't know. Um The thing is though, I guess that's what's kind of confusing because episode one more than any of the other star wars movies Have a lot of kid stuff In terms of the jokes and the gags This is the that's the just the ongoing thing It's like george lucas family said it's a 12 year old It's like, okay, chill out like the idea that star wars is made for kids there for what that adults can't get passionate about it Is that what we're going with? Yeah, I just think it I'm fine with it either way. I think it's just weird if you say it's for adults There's this part if you say it's for kids. Well, there's this part. It's confusing I think it's just for a mix. It's about the first one. I think is absolutely a kids movie Um, I do think that the blink it puts at the cartoon rabbit kind of like makes you feel. Yeah, it's a bit to have him messing around And even the stuff like Qui-Gon getting stabbed and everything they're not graphic It's I mean a kid could watch that and be totally fine with it content wise And a lot of kids were and I was one of them. Yeah, we talked about it. Um at some point, but even I remember Being in the cinema. I remember the area of the cinema. We were at me and my dad and when um Uh, some of the things happened in revenge of the sith Primarily being executing dooku.  I was like, oh my god Yeah, pretty rough But it wasn't like a sense of series as a whole You know, there's definitely a lot harsher stuff in there, but when you talk about just the fan of menace Uh, and it wasn't a matter of me getting um scared by or spooked by it. It was like, oh my god. Am I allowed to see this? Shit.  Like nobody says it about that There's only there only ever seems to come up when people are criticizing Dolls Which I suppose it does come up when you criticize toy story. We had a couple comments like that in the toy story episode Are you insinuating that people do not treat franchises? Consistently. Yes, I am Yes, I am how could you say something so? yet, so You cut out on both of the qualifiers Oh, uh, did I you say something so and so so and Well, that's there they go So brave and so true is what I said Let me check and make sure I don't have my RTX thing on because some when that's plugged in it does a great job eliminating Um non-vocal noises. However, it sometimes it doesn't pick up when you're speaking softly. Yeah Belch How you When the film came out it was partially built up as the blossoming romance between the two So many of us looked at it through that lens Uh What phantom menace I mean anyone can look at it however they want. We're just talking about what's in it Of which I uh, I disagree that there's anything remotely sexual between the two of them in phantom menace Yeah, I disagree with that vehemently nothing sexual and I got I got no horse in the race of hey, leave phantom menace alone So don't don't think it's to do with that um Focus on abby shepiro's chesticles to ease the pain They're pretty great Braggs, I want to I want to cover you in honey and consume Well, well that would make me uh sticky sweet doggo Thank you guys you filled the hole which was created by ending the ending of the co-optional podcast I don't believe I thought three hours were long back then. Love you guys more than gimly loved frodo Oh wow, that's Well, I mean more could be a lot more apparently that's not a lot. Yeah But um, yeah, you know, I don't um if you were a fan of co-optional and you move to efab. I don't know that there's a lot of similarity transfer there that we definitely have what you could call like a portion of it in terms of like the um We randomly talk about like industry stuff and uh some game reviews here and there but Um, that's more like a general podcast format But uh, I'm glad that you feel as though we can fill that that loss Hey, if it works for you man, that is that's good like to hear that glad you're liking it Taunt foe why not I think that's the first time I've used taunt in the entire game Chakamiri, which is probably quite useful actually because I can protect, you know your team, but yeah Oh, well Danmark here, how would much Sorry, how would much would you enjoy a great jedi movie and great spelt g r a y t? I think they meant to say gray How much so a great yeah, I guess How much would be enjoy a great well, we would enjoy a great anything no gray jedi movie. Oh a gray jedi. Oh, um I'd be fine with that. Yeah Yeah, I have nothing against that it would probably be interesting. I gotta be honest like These the when you're in idea form. I'm pretty much okay with anything Ideas are cheap like if someone said it's everything Let's do episodes You know 10 11 12 and it's gonna be about a plucky resistance force trying to destroy a Horrifying empire that's taking over the world and blow up planets.  There's another star wars No, I can think about And all I can think about is how nowadays that phrase would now fill me with dread like yep. Yeah, there's always another one Oh, yeah, it's sarcastic now like don't worry. There's another star wars and they patch you on the back and it's a joke and Does there have to be or doesn't have to be Um, he's looking at the groypa army Hey, we that weird pops up into a chapter every once in a while. I'm still I think it's like Is it like the fans of bench beer or fans of someone are called groypers? I don't know. I honestly don't really know and I have I've heard it before but I'm not All that sure what it means If Han wasn't smoking Joel would still be alive If Han wasn't smoking What is that in reference to on? Yeah Smoking. Hmm. I must say I do not follow I'm confused. Yeah Take monkey pill reject society return to monkey All right Tell me why not our eight our eight of 37 quick play akbar's theme Yeah, so our eight in the stream and we are at our n So like I said, I think the stream will start catching up to us. I was jokingly calling dooku a libertarian to a friend And that's exactly what ben says Yeah, that was a weird one. I don't understand. He was he was saying like, oh, you know Count dooku's trying to separate from the the republic because there's a sith involved. It's like he works for the sith. What do you mean?  It's the cis. They're they're a they're a huge group They only have thousands of planets. Yeah.  I guess maybe it depends on what the cis is But so it's potentially true, but it's not necessarily true But that's on top of him bullshitting. He's he's only here for the sith. He's not actually here for that aspect Or at least not from what we gather in the movies Yeah, he might be I mean that might be his kind of whole angle is that he really is interested in the political aspects of it But he also happens to be you know a jedi and he knows all this stuff and he's characters So that's the thing I think dooku is insanely underutilized and In attack of the clones. I need more of what he's doing and why As a character he's he's he could be potentially fascinating. He's already good and interesting Well, see you look back and you're like we should why is he only in like Barely a movie if you put it all together. It's like Like why isn't he in the trilogy? He got snoked?  Oh, he's immune to stun. Of course Stupid witch king knockoff He's a shit dooku and the separatist being libertarians was not the take I was expecting when I woke up today Hashtag don't tread on separatists don't tread on It's a yeah, it's a weird one, but you know You'll never oh definitely a very generous interpretation of it says the felbist is immune to stun, but he's stunned Oh, well, that's their definition of stun is a very It's a very it's a libertarian Yeah Company might Thank you all for all you do. Blessed be the long man. Uh, here's to 100 more timey rags Hmm. Oh, he's not you know it's done. Okay Yeah, uh, no problem. Do you think it would have been better to have Yoda fight by moving his lightsaber with the force? Yes Uh, so the issue I have with moving lightsaber with the force is that nobody should be able to beat you Because you can just slip under whatever they're doing and go straight into them Uh, depends on how it's done. I think depends on how fast you could move it Depends on how much control you have over it If it takes a lot of concentration and only certain people can do it And I could believe yoda would know how to do something like that Sure, but uh, how does dooku defend against that? Especially can turn it off and on to move it wherever you want like I feel like he's dead I feel like if if it would be if it was as if invisible hands were holding it essentially Um, then it could work. Um, it's the extent of how it's done because you can still block it with his own um So I would again, I would be fine with it My concern is that Lucas would make it look fucking goofy because I think there are totally ways to make that look naturalistic and Not silly I just don't know if Lucas could I'd be willing to check to check out all these potentials though because the as it stands, it's a bit It's a bit.   He would I don't think so. I think he's halloween all the way He's almost like the spokesman for halloween.   Okay Um bull rags if you don't engage in commercialism people treat you like trash. Why didn't you buy x any presents?  Like dude is buying a gift for your spouse engaging in commercialism Yeah, we gotta be careful with that because are we allowed to buy anyone anything anymore without engaging in commercialism? Yeah, calm down with that Not gonna yeah, definitely not maybe they're referring to like the specific Timing and the everyone's doing it because it's the time to do it rather than because they want to do it Yeah, doing it because it's what you're quote-unquote supposed to do instead of doing it for reasons that are a lot more You know pure I guess you could say. Mm-hmm. I think those are totally different things. Yeah.  Okay guys Yeah, it's what did we give it like seven eight Like we gave patriot pretty high ratings. There is lots of plot armor And what else was there because our issues were Lots of a couple fightisms some people are landing shots. They shouldn't really be able to um And then some people aren't dying when they probably should Which by the way of all the problems you can have that's probably gonna be pretty common in a war movie with several like friends getting for Yeah, not to not to diminish that it's a problem. Uh, that does happen because obviously the the opening where he kills Uh, what is like 30 guys with him and it's two sons Like I would have freed done this fight in a totally different way Dare I say it would have been much better in darkness. I don't know if they have the possibility of doing that In terms of the timeline in the Uh, you know, like how it all happens. I don't know. Yeah, there are things to sort out. Um But this this is just loads of moments that I think are really well done in that movie Yeah I think so We even you know springy hardcore anti Roland Emmerich even he was like, you know what? Not as bad as uh as people say or was known to be Ashtag free free patriots Pre-patriot Um, like legitimately there's some good stuff going on in the patriot like seriously go in there Don't be the don't explain it. I know this is bizarre, but pretend for second that it's all fantasy. It's not actually um There was never civil war Just just treat it as though it's that and then see how you come out Unless I know I know some of you're like, how can I possibly disconnect that? I'm like, okay. That's if you can't that's just that's fine But that was the movie where we got where we kind of just decided. Yeah Historical accuracy is an adaptation argument. Well, I think most people would actually agree with that when it comes down to a lot of movie gladiator is garbage if we go with um Historical accuracy being a huge identifier for whether or not a story's quality Yeah, but I'm Totally like I I'm not gonna say well the helmets weren't of the right time period that is trying to depict and that's an objective flaw It's an adaptation because it's it's it's a I I don't Yeah, the categorization Kind of comes in that way. Um It's super interesting to think about though how it all because that's all we've been doing is just trying to chip away Ultimately at both the categorization how everything slots in and what's what they labeled and and their effects Yes Dare I say it helps us it helps us be more objective um But yeah the uh, I even remember reading about how like people were annoyed that instead of having um Marcus pass away that he was You know suffocated and that that's like not what happened quote-unquote and it's like well I guess can we consider gladiator alt history at that point? That's another one that confused the hell I mean man the difference between breaching history and doing alternative history Seems to me that we usually categorize it based on just what is what how good the thing was It's like if it was really good.  I'm still on board with I guess the word respect comes up soon, right? Um Yeah Because I I would want to get as accurate as I can If I was making something like that However, yeah, if I was like I want to tell a story about a group of people who break into hitler's bunker and kill him Like during like halfway through world war two or something just as a crazy idea and it's like It's just a fun movie or something and they're like that's not accurate. I'm like, okay, but I'm not, you know I'm not learning anything What about respecting the character of hitler? Hmm That's the thing too is like, yeah hitler was a bad dude So are we just arbitrarily picking and choosing who we respect who we do and do not respect in terms of being accurate Is that what respecting is is it? That's interesting. What is the do we only remain accurate to the people that we think were good? Yeah, I mean if we made a if we were making a uh David keridine biopic um and and we uh Oh, yeah, I guess for those of you who don't know david keridine died from auto erotic asphyxiation So At the end of that movie Is it more or less respectful to show him dying from auto erotic asphyxiation? I suppose the answer to that would be you have to it would be that but you could be vague about it in the movie It's like he died, uh, he suffocated, you know Yeah, he he passed So That's a This that's an interesting to think of the interesting thing to think about and Like if you insult if you're making a if you want to be historically accurate And you want to make a movie, you know and hitler is a character, but you lie about something that hitler did That isn't accurate in order to pass him off as a worse person that he was Yeah Is that you know, where does that come in is is the fact that nobody will really defend it? That doesn't change anything about it. Does that make it okay? It's like, oh, that doesn't sound right. Yeah in that case It's it's a odd thing to talk about. It's an odd thing to talk about. Well, I think it's um In the in like battlefield having bionic women in like a world war Yeah, that I don't I mean it's it it destroys the immersion Well, of course, but how does it categorize in relation to how we're doing this with movies? um That would be a I mean, I still think in terms that would be one of those historical accuracy things in terms of Objectively, there's nothing wrong with it. You would call that an adaptation argument Which by the way, it's totally valid Yeah, I would call that an adaptation argument. Um But I would say, you know Be that as it may pretty easy to see why people were really really Weirded out About seeing that well because this is the thing I We do all of these kinds of arguments people assume we only ever do objective arguments Which is why they have so much fun pulling out an argument That's clearly not us trying to be objective and saying like is this objective too and it's like no so We talked about before but if someone were to make um a film exclusively like Doing all of those sorts of things and then we were sitting there like, okay This is going to annoy a large amount of people quite a bit. Uh I don't know if like what's your goal here and they're like, oh for everyone to have fun. You're like, right. Um So just from what I understand about people a lot of them are going to interpret this In a frustrating way or they're going to get feeling it's the inter subjective thing It's that I'm I'm going to appeal to the mass emotional reaction of people on a bet rather than like a statistic And I mean didn't that game get like shit tons of uh You know disdain from audiences or just like frustration The trailer was the A horrible decision that was unfortunately one of many There was a lot of problems when it came to battlefields lifespan um To the point where it could if someone said that game was a failed game Probably be keen on agreeing with them um it's But the trailer is your first impression and it should be a good one Because of not just how human brains work and how first impressions and final impressions are so important So from a tactical standpoint insane Bad maneuver there Um, but that was that just really got the ball rolling in a very negative light Really bad first impressions from a lot of people I think people would honestly categorize historical inaccuracy into two parts and it probably would be respectful and disrespectful So like oh, he's not using the right gun in this scene that one doesn't that wasn't used in this battlefield People are like, I don't care. It's like, oh this guy. He was never a hero and they're portraying him as such all vice versa People are like, oh, that's not cool. Yeah, I'm like, yeah, they only made 80 mars automatic Pistols, but it's a sidearm you could choose for your you know scout class Even though it doesn't really make sense if you're in a totally historical sense, but it's not disrespectful You know, it's not, you know, it's that that that makes total sense It's not insulting anyone or trying to change the stuff that they did It's not trying to take away the accomplishments of people. It's not trying to You know insult anybody in any way or demean them But Yeah Say that's That was actually one of the first things I talked to CJ about when I first met him in a call I talked to him about how much he considers historical accuracy to be uh Sort of like a definer for whether or not the content is strong or weak It's um Yeah, again, we're only commenting on it. That's a conversation that'll be going before we were alive and after we did Historical accuracy yay or nay It's pretty crazy as well because um, you'd think as time goes on that we'd be getting better at it in terms of like knowing what happened And thus not being able to make the mistakes, but we're getting to a point now where um Like portraying it As you prefer is probably more common than it was before Oh wow So they've got a reflective damage thing And I've got a healing blade so I attack them for x damage and that does damage to me As a reflection, but I also heal from the damage I've given The point is I ended up with full health Okay Wonderful Yeah, the reason I brought about history by the way is I wonder where where the line is between old history and disrespectful I mean in technicality It's old history Right all of them. Yeah. Yeah, because you can't perfectly You know display history Right It's just a where does the line break And if it's obvious and by intention it's all history I think that's pretty clear for a lot of people, but You know whether you could have a movie that wasn't entirely clear on that Yeah, or if they did know it wrong Yeah Pj's parsec is a unit of length not time doing it under 12 parsecs implies solo took a shortcut Um What was the justification and because like does his ship doesn't It just goes really really fast in solo, right? I thought I thought he like went into the dust and used his incredible pilot skills to Go into the storm and survive Because the story goes that he says under 12 parsecs In the original without them realizing that that's a measurement of length not time meaning It doesn't make any sense, right?  So that would still be a length thing, right? I wouldn't even Well, if the castle run assuming it isn't a straight line um I guess if you take a shortcut you could do it in under But at that point 12 parsecs like if if that's like saying you did the 100 meter race, which is a big ring In 50 because you ran across it's a half ring, right and you ran in a straight line. I'd be like, okay I mean anyone can do that if they have access to the shortcut, right? I guess the hard part is avoiding cthulhu I guess in the danger of the storm.  Maybe that's what yeah, that's what they're going for Yeah We're trying to make sense of star words everybody It's very hard Uh alpharius likes to kiss erotic That make any sense to you. I like erotic kisses. Yeah Ben drank the wheat hardism juice I mean his list was mostly okay from what I remember. It was the weird placements of a couple. Yeah, it wasn't terrible He's an interesting man He is an interesting man Um as usual Ben Shapiro is the straw man with all the wrong arguments. We don't want to believe exists In fact in terms of his star wars stuff.   Is he always this dumb? I mean, I've never seen his media coverage before that so I don't know Uh, I doubt it. He just is a weird Really weird when it comes to star wars See three people in a row join the disgusting halloween team. There are too many of the master rags. What are we going to do?  I want them to do it. They have enough money. He's just called plet. They have enough money to do it And the trailer is like it just starts with it's like It's a black screen it fades in and he's just at his little stall And uh, I built this this junk empire from nothing Each day I provide a quarter portion It would be dead if it was not for my generosity And it turns out he's like gathering all the scrap to build a mech It's like the the big reveal There are some who hate me, but I have brought life to the desert And then one day this girl stole my prized falcon and stories about him getting it back It's going to sell and then buy the orphan It's going to be orphaned in an orphaned official. We're basically giving him the dawn tree. Yep Because I think it's totally natural that the second you stop making a story of the star wars universe You want it to be about how rey is an asshole?  She's not as good as everyone says she is You guys are such incredible and admirable individuals you bring the best from people and that's why this community is so amazing Thank you for so many good memories. EFAP is more entertaining more than entertainment. It's a family. Oh Incredibly kind comment all of it is very nice. You say you'll rather humbled Um, I'm still mad at our mola for showing me a photo of mola. I'm mad because I prefer voice coming from mask itself My mental image is shattered. I mean humans can put masks on It can still come from the mask Perhaps the mask was still the one doing it the whole time And uh, it just wasn't on screen, you know Do Wookie weed would be she barker not Chewbacca. I do remember is talking about wookie weed at some point And I can see it being a very important subject Also, this whole time I've just been running through Helena fields just doing battle after battle after battle after battle. It's just nothing but like you could tell they gave up Yeah, they're just imagine looking at it from a distance. They're just a group of Some random dwarf and elf and some gondorian dude Just in the middle of the field just battling small groups of forks one at a time You know, I'm going to apply devastating field. I've missed our shield. I've never used this field as a way Uh, never used it before. Let's see how effective it is. I will let you know I'm going to get attacked at any moment.  I'll just make it hard. What's turning again? Valor is haste Um gadelb mary jane and whatever man also high rags Hello gadelb, whatever man, that doesn't sound no one's even gonna know that's a meme which well That's kind of most of the memes in these albums still Molly you played bubblorn, please tell me why are the forbidden woods riddled with so much bullshit? Oh, it can be really annoying those snakes man The bigger ones can like if you're not building right they can instakill you like I said this before Build health fully on bloodborne and you pretty much are safe. Uh, you should be right Which is not a compliment to the game by the way I am I'm probably more critical of bloodborne than you'll find anyone is even though I love the game yeah, I'm especially when it comes to video games the very skeptical of You know people who constantly pray something Doesn't mean they're wrong Well, uh, that's all I got for when did um, when did the last of us come out? Was it 2014 2016?  That's my exact experience I was like I think I probably would have enjoyed it more had everybody not told me it was the greatest game of all time Yeah, because then you go in with that expectation um I try not to oversell games As well. I I tend to name good aspects of them And I know I I probably slip into it by saying games are I certainly do if it's a favorite of mine. I'll be like, oh good Okay, so it returns half of the damage they deal Oh, wait, that was full. Okay So, okay, here's a better one trolls using thunder hammer It's had hard for 1900 and it returns 1900 so I just realized this is shit because they have way more health than I do Uh, yeah, so I was about to say something like that would have to be adjusted immensely because in games like guild wars 2 You could have a character who only has Like a really really beefy character in that game like the really really beefy character has 25 000 hp as a player character. You have 25 k hit points. That's a lot but enemies could have I mean boss enemies could have all in in fact, let me take a look a second. Um They could have hundreds of thousands easy Um, so the way it scales is just different. Um, and it's made that way so that a group of people can fight A singular boss and it doesn't die too quick. Yeah Um, let me see if I can actually get because what I will say is devastating shield I don't know if it applies infinitely, but it applies for a while. So those things do eventually stack up It might accidentally be the only balanced thing in the game Yeah, and scale based on play so balance, uh I could find it but later but depending on the game mechanics if you want to have If enemy Yeah, I mean it determines everything It's one of those things in games where you might not think about it But the amount of health that you have whether it's a hundred points or whatever And what your enemy health is that totally will determine that's everything when it comes to combat It's the damage that you deal. It's how fast you can attack. It's a huge part of how combat functions And if enemies have the same health that you do, you know Then the combat will play out one way the numbers will be one way and if you know, it's a different way if enemies Or have way more hit points than you it means your attacks can do insane amounts of damage And theirs will do different amounts of damage because you're scaling against two different numbers so It's something to consider um So like I was attacked three or four different times as Barathol is health going down going down going down Getting close to being at the at his end and then he does one counter attack He crit and he got a full heal because the sword heals him Like that's not even a move from me.  It's just like God, we're the point Um, who would have thought a gas mask throwing shade at wolf would go this far? Congratulations guys. Here's to another 100 episodes Here's to i'm ready Yeah, I was uh, I still remember just jumping into a call with him being like so, um Uh Oh, I did ragnarok. Let's do it. Yeah. Well, I don't know if we did cover ragnarok or not But we were just like immediately able to just start agreeing on how shit Star Wars is I think That's it's the it's the great bringer uh, together of people I'm grateful that Star Wars is shitty Yeah, I mean we can't you know take the bad with the good, right? Yeah, kids will always have beloved characters to yeah Hailed him all or in his toxic band of merry long men Um, everyone, what do you think is an objectively great performance by an actor and why? Oh Um So the only standard I can really Try and use is just portraying What I think is a genuine emotion rather than You know trying to give what they read on the the paper Or just failing to do one that they they clearly wanted to try and achieve It's a really hard one to be definitive on even though we can all agree on like the worst Yeah, I think this was one of those subjective things But it's one that you could display that most people understand and you can make arguments for But the the closest thing that I would say In terms of objective acting is when they are portraying a scene from real life that we could use as a standard to compare against So if an actor is like if you have an actor giving the Gettysburg address and he's playing Abraham Lincoln We could measure that To the real thing in terms of how it sounds and that sort of stuff. Wait, is that recorded? I do not know All right, you're right. Yeah, uh, mark Luther King. I have a dream speech that you know is So you have an actor playing Martin Luther King So that would be probably the closest thing that I think you could Measure in terms of objectively good or bad acting Um And even then I think it would be so difficult that I don't even think we could really do it that well Uh, because you'd have to do things like do you take into account the actor's appearance and how close their likeness is to the person they're portraying? Um If so, I would probably say it is effectively subjective However, you can argue it and I think you could convince people based on arguments And you can you can just totally generate on the fly you're like, um So just Tommy Wiseau versus like Anthony Hopkins you'd be like, um, absolutely Um And most people will be able to understand Yeah, uh, a lot of this stuff people just sort of Are in agreement on so you don't have to argue it And if you do have to argue goodness and badness of actors I think you could come up with so It's one of those things where I'd also say that the extremes are really easy to point out But the minutia is really difficult to point out Yes, maybe you have two horrible performances and two great Like the difference between a one and a ten is obvious to the point of it being just self-evident Which is the same the difference between seven and eight Yeah, um, that's kind of how movies are judged. That's why I'm not I don't think you could say that a movie is overall objectively good or bad because I think that's mostly because where is the line And how we haven't you'd have to account for all Uh aspects Yeah, but then again, I also say that once you could get people once you could just take parts of movies And analyze those objectively You're already in the game anyway, so go for it. Um, yeah the overall thing That's just a matter of there's no way to really quantify it.  Oh every single aspect wasn't working properly Yeah, that's the thing. Um, you know, there are things I've seen that I probably would claim that on the fly though Yeah, in casual conversation. I'll absolutely say that tlj is an objective disaster Um in terms of it's a pretty movie. Okay, like I said, it's the minutia that's really hard the difference between one and ten is obvious the difference between seven and eight is a lot more difficult to parse out and One one time when um At times when we're talking about if a movie was good or not Like if we're rating the patriot if we're rating hardcore henry if we're rating any other movie and kind of giving it just a casual number out of ten um Already not an ideal measuring system, but just for funsies I'll often oftentimes it ends with well It looked good and it sounded good and the acting was all right So how far does that you know bump it up or take it down? You know and then for ease you might go as far as saying ignoring those aspects. It schools this yeah casually Saying you know assigning on the fly numbers to those aspects of film You could do that if you just chatting casually But to do it in a more scientific way and I think that's a totally fine word to use when you talk about stuff like this Then I think it's far more difficult and honestly it's probably not even worth trying to talk about Is acting objectively good or bad? Um If you're trying to get really anal about it really just because they there will be Performances where I'll be like, holy fuck. They were so like uh willem de faux in lighthouse. It's just like Jesus christ Yeah, the fact that He didn't win anything for that Shocks me it legitimately shocks me What do you have to do then? What do you if he can't win what do you have to do? I think we agreed it was there was some stiff competition that year because there's a couple of good films What um, that's like that's an interesting thing. What I think scarlett joe hansen won it in for joe joe rabbit, right? Well, that's um, that's actress actor. Oh, yeah, they separate those. Yeah, that's which is I think I think it's it's odd that they separate though. I know why they do it But I don't think they should you know, too We could talk about this would be a whole other conversation But I think that the oscars are kind of bullshit in terms of the categorizations to begin with Oh, yeah, absolutely. It needs a lot of work. Um, so lead actor we had Wait a minute. Is this oh wrong year Yeah, because I was looking for the 2019 ones and it's like oh, they're done in 2020 I guess you need to search for 2020 to see the results of the ninth 2019 ones Um One second door.  He's not there and actors in a leading role.  Patinson It was also incredible. Right. Uh, so if he is supporting That puts him against Uh, joe passionnell pochino in the irishman, which I did see and they both did pretty well But they i'm sorry like if I was to just clear cut it, you know He was he was superior. Anthony hopkins and the two popes.  Yeah Yeah, willow defoe especially when that movie is all characters for for a for A huge chunk of it at least is characters Holy fuck, uh I'm forever the man was by the way the man was robbed You mentioned uh scarlett johansson.   I guess I like her as a character. Christ scarlett johansson was awesome and joe der rabbit Everyone see joe der rabbit. It's insanely good. It's probably like I would probably say it's my go-to example of how a film can have two different feelings to it Yeah How it can balance, um Yeah, like comedy and drama. She was also it's kind of a point of the film Sort of too. So it's a good thing. They nailed it. She was also nominated for a marriage story But she lost to renais el wega in judy I never even saw that never heard of all seen it Um, which you know, that's why I try to avoid being like, oh, she was robbed, but I'm willing to focus The sculler johansson have an oscar. I think she's kind of in one at this point Scarlett johansson oscars Nope, she's over here. I've been nominated really, huh? Well, we mentioned this on e-fab, but I take her so much more seriously than actress than I did just 10 years ago I say just 10 years ago a lot can happen in 10 years Well, yeah, hopefully she'll be acting for a long time and Because she does deserve it. She's great. She's incredible. Everyone go see marriage stories.  We had a lot of good stuff.  It's like, uh What even is the That'll be an odd one. Hmm God, it's gonna be slim picking But that's fine Everyone's worried that everything is gonna pour out in 2021 like the 2020 movies will be delayed until 21 And then the 21 movies will be coming out too So you got it, right? This year was our dry year next year will be spoiled for choice Oh spoiled for I'm sure all those movies will be great. Yeah um Now this is pod may racing. Uh, oh wait, we didn't answer the question. Sorry So the question was what do you think is an objectively great performance and obviously in the spirit of the question Let's just say a performance. We think is one of the best ever Willem Dafoe and lighthouse that's the lighthouse. Yeah, I would want to give more than just that one though. Like, uh So here's the thing Everyone and Lord of the Rings It's kind of like it's kind of a I'm gonna say almost unrepeatable perhaps but for that when I I yeah, but kind of everybody in that, uh When we have What's another good example? um Let's see Um, the ones that come to mind Because i'm trying to really get some really high stuff Arnold in terminator two Yeah, and that one I imagine you'd qualify it as being he's like the best robot there ever was Well, yeah, because he's playing that role, you know um Because of how well he plays that character. He's supposed to be playing It's funny for me. I'm trying to think of like my favorite anti-hoppians role is Masca's oro probably gonna be uh It's too generic. I know the silencer lambs is gonna be up there remains the day is um Pretty close. I'm gonna I'm gonna show you that one soon enough.  Um, I've always thought that uh Uh Robert Downey Jr.   Plays wolverine jogman memory. Hugh Jack Hugh Jackman in prisoners Yeah Oh, um Jake Gyllenhaal in night crawler. Have you seen that? I haven't but I've heard it's really good and he does amazing in it. It's a very He's uh, he's a he's our protagonist, but he's easily a bad guy and it's really engaging Um, he does fantastic and he's just a fantastic actor in general.  Of course. Yeah There's a lot. Um, and it's hard we're gonna have missed out on thousands like there's just so many because Even likes tv shows, uh Game of thrones loads of them would bring in their a game. Um Oh, um before everything went to shit I would say Rutger hower and blade runner Yeah I'd also say Um, oh, um Um, speaking of Rutger hower, it would be Matthew Broderick and Lady Hawk I've not seen that I would love to see it again because I loved it as a kid. It was one of the movies I watched as a kid a bunch I'd love to watch it. It's got Matthew Broderick It's got Brett Kerr hower in it and who plays the chick just a second. That was 1985. Um Uh Starring Michelle Pfeiffer. Hmm. Oh, right. She was what a hottie, but yeah, right Let really really like it. Matthew Broderick was great Um, oh Walter White that's one of the best performances like ever From Ryan Cranston One moment. Let me Have you seen Brigham bed? Yes, I have. I've seen some of it. I saw like the first four episodes But I know what you mean even from those I like I oh, yeah, I'd say his performance is already clear from those Uh, let me look up this really quick Um Uh, nickel Williamson Williamson. He plays Merlin in the 1981 Excalibur Really excellent, uh job he does with that role Um Liam Neeson was in the way he played circle lane You barely recognize him. That's kind of how I'm thinking about this I'm trying to like take an actor and then think of their best performance and Saying Liam Neeson like oh the gray Broadway. I don't know.  The dude the speech he gives is fantastic. Oh, yeah. Yeah Oh dude Patrick Stewart was in Excalibur. I remember as well. He plays a Sir Leone de Grunts. Um A lot of you he looks the same as he does now basically you're back in 81 Uh, huh I think there's some other actors Hmm One of the moves that the mumokale have is foul breath an elephant breathing on you And what do you think that is that corona? What is that? What are they doing? He doesn't turn around and just give you the old morgill stank or whatever it's called You'll be easterling stank. That's totally different. Uh-huh I mean, that's that's a whole selection. That's a pretty good lift there Yeah, loads of great ones out there and it's wonderful that we have access to so many Um, hi moorla. Hi rags.  I don't think I've read many books that I would consider like favorites um Really like a lot because I can't it wouldn't be one that I picked from like lovecraft stuff. It was just uh I have the collection and I was Loving reading lots of it. So I just I don't know I go far as saying like Any one story just sort of that as a bulk I really it was such a while ago that I'd read them But um the lemony snicket series like I don't know how well that holds up if I was to read it now I don't like those as a kid. Yeah I think because that applies to harry potter too. I wonder how well why aren't you saying can't we pot that? Harry potter's fine That's what I I assume that would happen if I was to read the books how much the films I would be like The films are the books are What carries the film to me is so many great british actors are in there It's like They're they're like high at all of them Answer me hawkins didn't make it in though. Sad face Neither to Ian mckellon or really like the sound uh Series iso-gasm up did read a lot of science fiction stuff dune brain kerber's dune was really good as a fun read Um, oh, uh the halo books the first three halo books that came out uh fall of reach The flood and first strike all of those are I think really well written books Yeah, good things Yeah, a lot of good stuff a lot of Man this elephant has loads of health Oh the art of war is really good um Simple short read Wow, it's a puro clip on efep. I don't know if I'll love it or hate it that's here But I'm sure rags my boy will back him up Uh No But I'm I was behind right now I'm I I I agree with bench appear on a lot of things. I disagree with him on a lot of things. He's Generally as long as he stays away from religion. I can get behind a lot of the stuff. He says to some degree But his religion tisms are I don't watch any bench appear really at all Not even heard much of him from like other people's coverage. I just know the name Yeah, he's just still around doing his thing, so Daily wiring all I ever knew about him was like he's the guy who has the Destroyed, you know thing. Yeah the memes and all that. Yeah Um But right now talking about a game. I've never played and jacked women yuck I guess they don't like jacked women Women aren't supposed to be jacked. That's why we call it jacked not gilled.  Someone'll happen eventually They're calling it slapping the elephant


My name is Roger Stern and I am here at this workshop because we've already started doing some work together with SeaCrafts. We work a little bit in our institute and the statistician, I should tell you, and we've been working on the baseline survey. We've been working on data management and now we're working on helping to integrate the Met services more closely into SeaCrafts activities. I think SeaCrafts is very well placed to add quite a lot of value. There are so many projects and initiatives on climate change. SeaCrafts is coordinating something that's very respected, which is the international agricultural research in many organisations. So it spans agriculture in its widest sense and of course SeaCrafts by its nature is trying to add the food security angle. So it's limiting in climate change because it's agricultural food security and I think that is good. It's adding to the projects in the region research at the highest level and it is able to go across country, share information across country. And my impression from what I've seen, it's doing two other things. I think the CG centres have generally been very exemplary in the way they share information resources. And secondly, the SeaCrafts team that has seen this opportunity has a number of people of the highest calibre and so having them working as a team provides a wonderful opportunity. Maybe the last thing I could add is it's relatively long term. So too many projects are short term, but SeaCrafts at least having a 10 year horizon provides such wonderful opportunities to support and enrich many other initiatives in the regions that they're working in. Their interventions I would see, they will do a few projects of their own, but I see them as enriching and helping projects quite a lot by supplying tools, supplying connectivity of different partners together that go often over countries and over regions, supplying other resources, leveraging funds because involvement with SeaCrafts can imply a very high standard of the research that's going to be coming. So I think they have very useful roles often as catalysts and rather than inventing many new projects trying to support, enrich and help existing projects be more effective in their work.
