I've been excited for this, we've all been patiently waiting.   Let's begin. Let me pump the brakes for half a second, point out that I'm not pandering in this video. I didn't need to dress up as Mario or Luigi to do this. No, instead I'm wearing a T-shirt of my own channel. Subscribe. Let's go to the subscribe button. Mario reference. The first thing that my expertise brings to the table when it comes to this movie trailer is that it looks beautiful. The animation is top tier. This is Illumination Studios. A lot of people aren't fans of them. I am. Secret life of pets, one and two can burn in a fiery lake. I don't really see what the big fuss is when it comes to sing one and two either. But despicable me and those lovable minions? Yes please, I'm all in. The trailers already convey a lot of stuff. Number one, this is a large scale movie. Look at the size, look at the stature of Bowser. Rolling up to this castle, he dwarfs the kingdom in size. Number two, Bowser's voice by Jack Black. I can't even tell, listening to it. Fantastic voice work. I don't know why people were worried though. Jack Black always delivers. And he's just proven it here again.  This prehistoric god deserves our respect. You should be kneeling before his presence. The penguins are gonna learn this the hard way. This isn't my first play through of the trailer. Video game reference, subscribe. No, I've watched it a couple of times and I wanna point something out. The moment the king comes out and gives that little idle threat, I laughed. I LOL'd actually. I'm gonna do a recreation for you so you can get the full effect of what happened. That is but a taste of our fury. Do, do, do, do, don't go anywhere. There is more to talk about. Here's our hero. Not the most exciting way to introduce him, getting smashed around on the mushrooms. But he's clearly in shock. He's not from this kingdom.  What is this place? And an Italian, I think. I don't really know what Chris Pratt's doing with his voice. I think that's what he's going for though. I'm sorry. Toadstool spot on though. In fact, this whole movie trailer is fire. I am very excited for this. Huge fan of Nintendo and the games. Not so much Chris Pratt's Mario voice, but this is just a tease. Mushroom kingdom, here we come.  Let's put him in the movie. He's Nathan. I do think Chris Pratt had to audition for the role and Nintendo really did go through this and say, yes, this works. We like him. We're going forward with it. The star power obviously helps, but I don't think that was the determining factor. At least that's what I'm telling myself so I can go to sleep at night, okay? Because an animated Mario Brothers movie being done correctly is paramount to me getting a good night's sleep. Because somewhere in the back of my mind, I'm still being tormented by scenes of giant goombas dancing around in elevators, of a sassy, heavy set gal in SMN gear, of a fugly giant CG Bowser. That's the kind of stuff that sticks with you. It's hard to wash away. We get that nice colorful title followed by one final shot confirming that Luigi's in this.  Nice callback to Mario 3, I believe, is when we first saw dry bones appear. So first impressions are absolutely positive. I'm very excited for this movie. I think Nintendo and Illumination are going to knock it out of the park. Let me know your thoughts in the comments below. Like the video if you had a good time. Go ahead and punch that subscribe button, hit that thing like you're breaking a brick. It's another Mario reference, subscribe. It's another Mario reference, woohoo. That way you won't miss a single scorching hot taking the future from me. And they're out of this world. They're out of this Mario galaxy. Goodbye. Oh my God, I tried a new way to stream today. I'm still a little disoriented from setting it up. I'm using YouTube but also piggybacking off of Streamlabs. I wasn't expecting it to start. I've been all over the place. It's been chaos. It's been complete pandemonium. I'm not fully ready for this yet. Let me get my Coke. I'm gonna get my drink on. I'm gonna get my taste on. I gotta bring up some of my notes and stuff. Just hang tight. I'll be right back. Enjoy the background, accoutrements, the setting. I'm not looking at this camera. I'm looking at a camera directly underneath, the nicer one. The Stream camera's trash. If this keeps going well, I'll purchase a nicer camera. But for right now, this is what we have to work with. You're just gonna have to bear with me on it. Thank you for joining the stream. Like I said, I'll be right back. I gotta get something in me. I gotta get something in the mouth. You can clip that if you want. Just bear in steam, bear with me for a sec. I got my Coke. I'm happy about that. Where, where's YouTube at? Where are you? It's just, I'm just missing. I'm missing a key ingredient that I need. Okay, okay. No, no, come back. I don't usually do double screens. So, I got a giant TV hooked up to the computer. And I'm just trying with all my might right now to get this working properly. I thought I had a grasp on it, but I don't.  Unofficially brought to you by Coca-Cola Classic. I still haven't figured this out. I haven't figured it out. We'll get there. I used to stream on Twitch only because of this. Usually it's a good 20% tech support, technical issues, because I'm constantly changing things up, which is what you want to get. You want consistency. This chair here, let's get that out of the way. Okay, we got it. We got it. We turned the whole mirror nonsense off because it just was not playing well. It looks really dark on the stream. Is that just what I'm seeing, or is it dark on your end? Let's lighten this camera up. What happened? Try that. We're gonna bump the exposure up. Again, two different cameras operating right now. Let's see how the stream looks on YouTube because the preview I'm seeing is just terrible. It looks candlelit, yeah, like a vigil. That looks better. Okay, yeah, that's better. Again, it's still terrible, but we're striving for mediocre here. Okay. So the goal today is we're going to live record a couple of videos. How this works is I'm going to get into action mode. I'm going to hit record on this phone camera. iPhone 14 Pro, whatever, has much nicer picture quality than my Canon does now. And then I'm going to hit record separately on the audio, which is off camera on my computer, but I have a Yeti mic, just a $100 Yeti mic, right out of frame. It's right here. It's what you're actually hearing me talk through right now. Camera separate, audio's the same. Got some lint or hair on here, get rid of that. Okay, if that all sounds good, what should we talk about first? I have on the docket, and I love suggestions from the chat if there's anything spicy to talk about. Right now we're doing, we have the Mandalorian review. It's a spoiler review of season six, episode six, I believe season six, season three, episode six. I have notes, or I could do the Mario spoiler free review. Perhaps we save the Mandalorian review for the end of the stream, or maybe I don't even do it on stream if you think that the spoilers are going to be a problem. I'll let you have a couple of minutes to digest that. And if you're playing this back later and not seeing it live, I can put chapters in so that you can avoid spoilers up. Spoiler, there's nothing good about that episode. And the whole season's trash. So if you're still even watching it, and you're not missing out on anything by missing the episode or by listening to the spoiler video. What camera do you use? Well, I'm using my iPhone, iPhone 14 now. I was using a Canon like Rebel seven. It's years old. It was never like top of the line when I got it. It was just kind of a entry and mid-level camera, pretty much. Some say no spoilers. Others want the Mandalorian. Let's save the Mandalorian for later in the night, maybe after the Q&A and everything so people can dip out if they don't want to hear that and save it for later or for never. It doesn't matter to me. We'll do the Mario review. It will be very spoiler free, okay? We got the Sips out of the way, Throat's feeling okay. I just got done reading to my son. We're going through Aragon, the first book. Fantastic book, but it's wordy. And I play the voice as they do the characters. It's a whole thing. It's a whole production. What was the weird drink you had last time Matt wants to know? Matt, who Patreon user, he also is a friend at this point. He's gone to several movies with me. It's been a good time, so. If anybody's in the South Carolina area, all you have to do is ask. I'll see movies with pretty much anyone. Okay, we're going to do Mario. Let me get IMDb up so that I can remember the names of all the people in it and say the ones that I want to and avoid the ones that I will butcher regardless. Okay, we're good to go. I'm gonna hit record and I'm gonna hit record on the audio.   There's going to be a lot of errors. I just quickly kind of take where I left off from. You can make comments about how awful it is. It's okay. It's part of the process. And then you'll see just how much editing I have to do to Humpty Dumpty this review together. Believe it or not, after so many years, I've not gotten any better at this. Yeti is, oh God, there's multiple versions right now. Hello. It's this one. It's gotta be that one. What happens if I choose this one? Testing is the same thing. It's gotta be coming from there, right? It sounds like it's coming from there every time I punch it. That's gotta sound good on your end. Oh my God, Matt. I don't even think I answered your question. The weird drink I had last time was apple juice.  We have a whole, we have a Bangladesh of them in the fridge outside. I know Bangladesh isn't used properly there. That's a place, not a term. But sometimes I just say stuff like that for fun. Okay, one last high and then I'm gonna start the video. Screw my way through it and then we'll chat again afterwards. Mario review, no spoilers. Hitting record on the real camera. It's recording. It's been a long time since the cinematic masterpiece Super Mario Brothers hit theaters in the 90s. Bob Hoskins, John Leguizamo. America's Sweethearts put on the big screen as plumbers fighting Bowser and saving princess Daisy, I think. Listen, that movie was a complete disaster. This was Nintendo's opportunity, along with illumination to set things right in 2023 with the Super Mario Brothers movie. How? Does it fair? Stick around, I'll tell you. Dee dee dee dee dee dee. Okay, I think we got through that pretty okay. When the trailers first hit, I think everybody was pleasantly surprised with what they saw unfold on the big screen or on the small screen, depending on what screen you watch that trailer from, probably a small screen. The thing that stood out as a negative, as a hair in the ointment, that's an expression I just came up with, is Chris Pratt's, he does a good job in certain roles, certain roles, he just kinda does this and that's really all it takes, Owen, dinosaurs. I was actually impressed. I shouldn't say impressed, I should say it was fine. It wasn't scorched earth bad, it makes sense in the movie and the movie itself is a little better than fine as well. It's not the greatest thing, it's not the be all end all, certainly better than that last Mario movie, although that bar was in the ground. Let's talk a little bit more about it without going into, I'm gonna jump into it without getting any spoilers. I'm gonna make like there's a fictitious block above my head and jump into this review without giving any spoilers away. I do wanna ask you though, if you could grab a wrench and just smash on that subscribe button for me, that would be great. As I post tons of movie content each and every week, gotta have you stick around. I think I said wake, but we're gonna keep moving past it. We have a cavalcade of characters here from Luigi to Mario to Peach to Bowser to Donkey Kong. A lot of people showing up in this thing and the voices are equally as impressive. Not only do we have Pratt, but we have Charlie Day from Always Sunny in Philadelphia, we have Anya Taylor-Joy or however you say her name. She's Peach. We have Seth, I was gonna say Seth Rogen. That would be awesome. Seth Rogen is Donkey Kong. What is his name, Seth? I forgot his name. Seth something, right? Keegan-Michael Key, is he just a voice in everything now? I swear I see his name show up more than anyone else. Seth Rogen, did I say Seth Rogen? I did say Seth Rogen. In my mind, I was thinking Joe Rogen would be funny as Donkey Kong. It was Seth Rogen. Now I have no idea where I took that from. Seth Rogen voicing Donkey Kong, Keegan-Michael Key, because of course he's somehow in every single animated movie doing a voice. It could be a sunflower, it could be a boulder in the background, Keegan-Michael Key's in the picture. He's getting paid regardless. The big standout though is of course Jack Black as Bowser. He stole the show in the trailers. He steals the final product as well. Although Onion Tailor Joy as Peach, pretty solid as well. I have to say, I saw the negatives on Rotten Tomatoes. I didn't read them. I just saw the percentage, 48% at the time. Critics are I guess not liking this. And I'm just trying to figure out why.  It's family friendly, it's surface level, it's nothing deep, okay? Typically fart jokes, thankfully none here. They shied away from that. They shy guide away from that if you will. What it does have though is a fast hour and a half run time. Solid storyline. It's a little all over the place at times and they definitely rush through it very quickly but it gets the playbook in check. You have all the X's and all the O's in place. Mario's a plumber. He goes to this magical world, mushroom kingdom. He meets the princess. He's gotta save the day. It's not like the video games complex there, all right? It's an all ages affair. Your kid's gonna love it.  Otherwise she'll wait for it to come home. Check it out in the peacock. Check it out in the cock, as I like to say. Okay, we did pretty well there. We ran hot and heavy for a while. I think maybe some people just were rubbed the wrong way by Chris Pratt initially announced or just the fact that he exists at this point. I don't know. People are crazy.  They get a chip on their shoulder about someone that they heard something about and they're just like, we're done with you. We're scorched earth in this. Pratt's fine. Pratt's perfectly fine. There's a lot of nostalgia in this thing. It's heavy on gamer nostalgia.  There's plenty to enjoy. It's a visual feast. We know what illumination movies look like. This is easily the best. And I know they're not known for their upper echelon top pedigree of visuals, but this is pretty damn nice looking. It's also action-packed. You get Mario Kart references. It's in the trailer. That's not a spoiler. You get power-ups. You get a lot of things branching a ton of decades of video gaming. There's Mario history from one, two, three, all the way up to Odyssey. And I'm here for it. I've played a large amount of these games. So every little detail, every little Easter egg, not only from the Mario world, but also from other games from the past was very fun to see. Absolutely a great time. I took my two kids. They had a blast. And they don't have that nostalgia like I do. They've played some of the newer stuff. I think they've played Mario one a few times, dabbled in Mario three, tried out that Tanuki suit, took it for a spin, jumped on a couple dry bones and called it a day. They love this movie as well. I don't think either of them thought, wow, this was the greatest thing ever. We need to go again. I don't think anybody will think that, but it is a very entertaining, easy watch in and out an hour and a half. That's really all I thought. Oh, and the music. The music is probably the greatest thing ever. You have so many musical chymons from different walks of life. All these different games culminate into a ballad of beautiful orchestrative numbers, orchestral numbers. I always do that. They culminate into a beautiful orchestra. All these old numbers culminate into a beautiful. That's just what it is. I'm dumb.  Orchestral. All these beautiful, wonderful songs culminate into a amazing orchestral.  Why? Why? Just figure it out, Adam. God, I need a haircut too. I have like a, I don't know what's going on here. All of this culminates into a beautiful, orchestral, magical experience for the whole family. It's a feast for the eyes, it's a feast for the ears. And I was hungry going in. I left pretty satisfied coming out. I think that was a good analogy. I'm okay with it. Let me know what you thought. If you saw Mario already, I can't jump into that already. I feel like there's gotta be something else to say here. Oh, the end credits, not gonna spoil. You may have heard, if you've been on the internet, that there are two end credit scenes.  I will just tell you. If you got better things to do, do them. Neither one of them is at all worth sitting around for. One's just played for jokes. Another one, slight tease. Neither tickled my fancy, as they say. Well, there you have it, my, well, there you have it. My thoughts on Mario, well, there you have it. My thoughts on Super Mario Kart. Well, there you have it. My thoughts on the Super Mario movie. It's better than the last one. And it's not a bad time. I'm excited for more in this franchise. We're definitely gonna get it. This movie's already making a ton of money. It's already made more than Shazam and Morbius combined. Not that that's saying much, but still, very fun. Like I said, I post tons of movie content every week.  Just hit that thing, subscribe, like the video if you had some fun. Let's go to that notification bell. Turn that bad boy on so these things populate in your feed. Otherwise, the videos are gonna be full of Joe Rogan being Donkey Kong and we just can't have that. All right, thanks for watching the video and hopefully, see you next time. Hopefully I see you next time. It's gotta be a better way to sign off. All right, thanks again for watching. Let's head on over to the game over, head on over. All right, thanks for watching. Let's head to the game over screen. Okay, and that's the end. That's the end of video number one. We did it in 11 minutes and five seconds. I'm gonna stop the recording. I'm going to stop the recording. Let's see if anyone is still in the chat watching. Joe Rogan, Yoshi, pull that up. What does he always say? You ever tried DMT or what? I don't even know the term. Whatever drugs he's into. I could see Donkey Kong being entirely like that, just a total gym bro who's high constantly. Matt, I said Joe Rogan the second time on purpose. That was plain into the previous joke.  I was gonna say, what are they gonna make next? Angry Birds, but there's already two of those movies. We had two Angry Birds movies before a second version of Mario was made. That's insane. Frozen in the 80s with a $5 super chat. Just shot out of a cannon. Amazing, thank you. Appreciate that. We are going to, I should point out, Frozen in the 80s, if you stick around for a while, we do a Q and A at the end. I did it last time, I'll do it again. If you wanna give a super, you don't have to give one, you already gave one, but you can ask me a question since you gave a super chat already. At the Q and A, I do like super chat, any amount, ask me a question, I'll answer, within reason. I mean, there's not really much of a reason. Give me one reason and stay, hey. Remember that song? Tracy Chapman? That can't be right. Anyway, okay, I was gonna do the Mando thing, but I feel bad, because the episode just came out today, so I'm gonna wait until the way end. So in the meantime, in the interim, is there any movie news you want me to cover? Let me know in the chat. Chat it up. If there's any movie news you want me to cover, I'll look it over and I'll talk about it. We'll record it, we'll make it a thing. How does it compare to the first Sonic movie? Sounds like a movie feuds episode I would have done back in the day, King Cold. I think it's far better than the first Sonic movie. The first Sonic movie is just a competently made family film with a little bit of Sonic nostalgia and gameplay loops put in. Mario is a video game fever dream. There is stuff everywhere. It fully goes all in on the Marioverse, and I'm here for it. Chris Pratt's scientific voice Mickey Mouse for Disney. Rob, okay, there's no way that's real. I refuse to believe that, but that's funny. Woo, ha, ha, ha.  I'm Chris Pratt, ha, ha. Let's go. He like combines both of them. Moana remake, that's just sad. That's how you know that people either A, aren't clicking that notification bell, or B, YouTube is still suppressing videos because I already did the Moana remake video. That was posted yesterday. I dropped two videos yesterday. The Moana thing and a blue beetle trailer reaction. I think I did three things yet. I did on three things yesterday. I don't know, it was a hot and heavy day. Oh, talk possible spin-off ideas for Mario. Or I could do like a top five Nintendo movies I wanna see. That would be cool. Harry Potter, that was it, yes, that was the other one I did, I did a Harry Potter. Thank you, thank you Bubba. Yeah, maybe I'll do a Mario thing I wanna see in the future. Let me put down my top five quick. Yeah, I'm gonna put down the top five here. Really fast. Okay, I have three, I need two more. Trying to think of Nintendo first party things that I like. I got Pokemon, I got Zelda, I got Metroid. What are the other big ones? Star Fox, I don't care about. Punch out, no. God, there's like a million Nintendo games. Why can't I think of anything else that's like, I need to go upstairs and look at my collection. Yeah, I could do a Barbie reaction to that trailer. They made a Pokemon movie already. They did not make a Pokemon movie. They made a Detective Pikachu movie and a bunch of animated, but I'm talking about like in the same vein, like if Illuminations taking over the Nintendoverse, I want animation the same style as Mario for these other properties and then we can get a Smash Brothers movie. Smash Brothers, that's what I need. Smash, Banjo-Kazoo, that is not a Nintendo property.  I know video games. I could do an Adam Does Video Games channel and be equally as mildly successful in three years time, but I just don't have the time. But I know video games and Conker's Bad Fur Day. That was Rare, and now it's owned by Microsoft, I believe, or it's sitting in some sort of a limbo hell. Yeah, I got Smash Brothers. So I got Smash Brothers, Pokemon, Zelda, Metroid. I gotta have one more.   Yeah, Luigi's Mansion would be good. I mean, a true Mario Kart movie would be awesome as well, but again, we have to kind of build up a roster of solo films first before we get to that Avengers-esque big showdown. And then by the time, so like in 30 years from now, Nintendo will be on their like C-Squad, like the MCU is. We're gonna have like a Mr. Game and Watch movie. It'll just be the bottom of the barrel for the movies. Mario will be dead. And he will have sacrificed himself, yeah. Let me Google Smash Brothers and see what else.  God, maybe we do Star Fox. Star Fox could be sweet. I'm gonna throw Star Fox in there as the wild card. I mean, a Donkey Kong movie, obviously. He's kind of, it's kind of like built up in Mario, but yeah, obviously a Donkey Kong standalone. He's kind of the Hulk character, though. He's already kind of introduced. We're good with him. I feel like Kirby could just be kind of shoehorned into the Pokemon movie. Just kind of like retcon him as a Pokemon at this point. He's like a Pokemon 2.0 or something. We're gonna do that. We're gonna do this, I like this idea. New audio recording. Start. Starting the video. Let's take one more drink of soda. With the inevitable massive success of the Super Mario Bros. movie, Illumination has a gold. Let's try that again. With the inevitable success of the Mario... We're off to a good start. With the inevitable amazing success of the Super Mario Bros. movie, Nintendo and Illumination have a golden ticket on their hands and they're not going to squander it. Today I'm gonna present to you five movies that I'd like to see coming next in this Nintendo cinematic universe, the only other cinematic universe that can possibly hold the candle to the MCU in the coming years. That's not fair. DCU might have a chance. Eh, let's keep going.  That's not a good way to start, is it? Probably shouldn't do that. We'll try one more. Try one more take. We'll see which one fits better. With the inevitable amazing success of the Super Mario Bros. movie, Nintendo and Illumination, they have a golden ticket on their hand. One that they are surely not going to squander. So today I present five movies that I wanna see next in this Nintendo cinematic universe, the MCU, if you will. That sounds like some sort of a NCI spin-off. Anyway, let's continue with this video right now.  Take it from MCU. There was a break there. Introductions out of the way. Let's begin. We're making this a numbered list just for no reason at all. We're gonna make this a numbered list because that's just what you do on YouTube. So in the number of five, we're gonna make this a numbered list out of five because that's just what you do on YouTube. So in the five slot, I have Star Fox. Not because I want it or need it, because it just has to happen. We have to build out the roster. I'm not totally craving a Star Fox film, although if these are all in my mind presented by Illumination, they all follow a similar art style. Then I want this to be the first one out of the gates that says, okay, we're going a different direction than Mario. We're taking to the sky. We got talking animals. It's crazy. It fits though. We already got a talking gorilla. We already have a talking ape with Donkey Kong, so we're slowly leading into the animal critter stuff. It might get sloppy with a pick I have down the road, but we'll address that later. For now, I want to see Skippy. I want to see that dumbass toad flying around, needing saving. I got to have Fox behind the pilot chair, doing his thing, barrel rolling out of danger, blowing stuff up, taking to the skies, taking to the water, taking to the land. I want transforming vehicles. I want some amazing action set pieces in this thing. I want Nintendo Go-Halt. I want Nintendo to do what, I want Nintendo to do what they Nintendo don't do for the Star Fox property and make something good again. Remember, do you remember the good old days when Star Fox was awesome? Way back on the Nintendo 64? Sure, you can say that that weird spin-off RPG style game was good. It originally was Dino Planet or something. It wasn't even a Star Fox game. It did give us crystal. It did give the furries what they needed in their community. But I need more. I need high-octane adventure. And Nintendo and Illumination can do it. And it's gonna get us on the right path to a Avenger-style showdown in the future. In the number four spot, we got Samus Aaron. We got Metroid. This is gonna be a darker, sinister film. Taking place in the cold reaches of outer space. Traversing different planets. Samus Aaron, naturally voiced by the beautiful, sultry, silky, smooth voice of Scarlett Johansson. It has to happen. It has to happen. I also wouldn't mind if they modeled the character off of her either, but that's for another video altogether. In this, I wanna see Samus alien-style going around icy terrain, going through a volcanic area, taking on some of her greatest foes. Some of her greatest adversaries. What's the big bird? What's the bird thing's name? There's Mother Brain. What's the freaking dinosaur name? Metroid enemy. Ridley, Ridley, oh my God. Ridley, it was right there with alien. With Ripley, Ridley, Scott, Ripley, whatever. Big bird. Big bird thing. You know Ridley's in the mix, but he's not gonna show himself right away. He's gonna skulk in the distance. Swarming, or swarming, swarming, swarming. Why? Why is he swarming? Omnously, in the shadows, in the distance, waiting to strike. This is gonna be a character that's gonna get teased. Several times before the big reveal towards the final fight, which is gonna be with Mother Brain. So she's gonna have two opponents to take out at once. Her blaster is gonna keep getting upgrades as this thing goes. From a little pea shooter. To a transforming behemoth. It's gonna be, and the last and final thing that we are all craving. More than anything else in Hollywood is a good old fashioned strong.  Sweating bullets, Megadeth.   Samus Aaron. Weathered, disheveled, half her armor is gone. Zero suit, teasing underneath. Again, in that Samus figure. What is wrong with me today? Melt down, blood dripping, illumination, art style. So little cutesy, still like gas, but we can try to adult it a little bit more. Volcano, volcano, volcano. This is how I talk now. El canto, volcano about to, no. Volcano erupting in the, I already said distance. Volcano on the horizon, blowing its load. Audience is blowing their load too, because this is where the film is gonna hit its final crescendo. She starts to rise up, ash sprinkling from the heavens above, singeing her armor. Hair half out of the helmet. She sees Ridley. Come down, looks over this way. Baby Metroids. Come in towards her. She starts to load the shooter. Music is epic, it's sick. It's epic, sick. She is going nuts, drops into her ball. Sonics the hell out of there. Jumping in and out of crevasses. Swinging around, it is insanity. It's Metroid, it's the film I want. It has to be made. Music has some opera style stuff going on. I need it now. Inject it right into my veins, Nintendo. How is Metroid only in a number four slot? Well, I'm kind of starting to second guess that too. Okay, in the number three spot. No, you got the song wrong. In the number three spot. We're talking Zelda. We're talking Zelda. And I'm gonna get a little controversial here. I'm actually gonna pick a lane. I am going to pinpoint the game I want.  A gap. A gassed. Zelda Wind Waker, eat it. Zelda Wind Waker, baby. Give it to me yesterday. I wanna be traveling the high seas with Link. With the Wind Wand. Skiddy-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee. Opening chess, hovering on a leaf. The art style fits perfectly with illumination. It could even do a little bit of the cell shading if it wants to. It has one of the most interesting stories. A princess in disguise. A Hyrule underwater, lost to the ages. And one of the most epic final duels with Ganon, aka Ganondorf, aka one of the coolest villains in video game history, where Link grabs the sword, runs up the fucker, and implants the thing into his head right into the skull. As Zelda looks on, reflecting glad. As Zelda helps out from the sidelines, reflecting light off a shield. It's amazing. It truly is a game for the ages. And it's a game I wanna see brought to the big screen. Listen, I know Link's a kid throughout the whole thing. But that just lets it grow, right? That gives us the opportunity to see him grow up as a character. Become a teen, become a man. But we have to start at the ground one. We gotta start at Wind Waker. Illumination can have fun with this too, of course. We'll see him go into houses, just break in. Starts shattering glasses. Starts shattering vases. Grabbing rupees. It's taking everything and just looting the place and ransacking and getting the hell out of there. It's Zelda at its peak. We'll have dungeons sections. We will have combat with the master sword. Can you imagine? Can you imagine him going into the woods? Dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee, dee. Kills tingle, naturally. Decaps that guy. Can't stand tingle. Can't stand him. That's a personal thing. We can't put that in a kid's movie. I understand. Axe tingle, I don't want him in there. Toss him asunder. We're gonna have giant octopus boss battles in the film. He's gonna take out an octopus while he's on the seas. Okay, little Pirates of the Caribbean mixed in with my Link adventure. I'm fine with it. Giant birds. Bad guys, where he has to use a hook shot. He grabs new weapons as the film progresses. It's a perfect, perfect experience for the whole family. Keep it easy, keep it breezy. Hour 30, hour 45 in and out. We have a picture here. So look at the comments. Or yourself up into a heart attack. Wind Waker for illumination, but Ocarina of Time for Peter Jackson. Yeah, I agree, I agree. Ocarina, that's the untouchable one. That's the one everybody goes to. That's the one. All right, two more Nintendo movies. It's just gonna keep ratcheting up here. You like how the only voice actor I've given so far is Scarlett Johansson? I should add her into all of these movies somehow, make her voice different characters. Ash Ketchum and Misty, both played by Scarlett Johansson. Sure hope I was recording audio during that. Okay, whoo, whoo, whoo, whoo. In the number two spot, you gotta catch it.  In the number two spot, I got an option so controversial it's gonna make your head spin right off of your body. Onto the floor. You can pick it up or you can save it there because it's gonna continue to be dropped. The knowledge I'm gonna throw at you today is gonna be met.  I can't even get through this. Sometimes I just start and hope that my words will lead somewhere. Oftentimes, that's not the case. Oftentimes, that's not the case. Let's try it again. Dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, bum, bum, bum. I wanna be the very best dunna that no one ever was. Dun, dun, dun, dun, Pokemon movie. It has to happen. And no, not Detective Pikachu.  It's trash. People just pretend to like it because they love Pokemon.  Mid at best. I said it. I stand by it and I saw some of them in theaters. Day fun. What I want is an illumination Pokemon movie.  No, I don't want juvenile humor, okay? But I want the Squirtle Squad. I want cute Charmander. I want an amazing relationship with two best friends traveling the countryside, Ash Ketchum and Pikachu. Yeah, I know they retired Ash Ketchum. I'm taking them out of retirement already. Dustin off the cap. Is he a dumbass? Yeah, of course. Has he not grown really at all over the course of 20 or so seasons? Absolutely. We're taking them back to square one. We're gonna rebuild this character the right way. Cause the pieces are all there. Young kid, rebellious, wants to make a life of zone at the age of like 10 or 11. The time that you leave home, of course. Gets his first Pokemon, has this amazing bond with Pikachu. I mean, really the movie should be the rise of Ketchum and Pikachu as they start their journey and head to the Master League. Do we end with the Master League? I don't even know if we go there. I think it's premature. If we're building a franchise, let's build it properly. Master League, that's the be all end all, right? Becoming an elite four? That's the end game. We don't start at the end game, we stop there. So we start with just a simple buddy road trip adventure between these two heroes. Yeah, we bring Misty in, of course. Voice by Scarlett Johansson. We bring in Brock. Who plays Brock? We gotta have a voice for Brock. Seriously though, Misty's probably voiced by like Anna Kendrick or some. Seriously, Misty's voiced by like Anna Kendrick's or something. We keep it familiar and annoying enough to work. Anna Kendrick's fine, but she can play that role. Brock, we gotta go with like John Cena or someone. Brock is the man. So we get a man to play him. Nurse Joy's obviously in the film. Officer Jenny's obviously in the film. Got a formula, we gotta stick with what works. Team Rocket, you better believe Team Rocket's there. We have all the pieces, people. This is a slam dunk of a film. Ash Ketchum of Pikachu on their journey. He runs into the Squirtle Squad. He gets a Charmander, maybe sees an epic Pokemon. I don't want Mewtwo in this thing. Okay, I'm gonna say that right now. Mewtwo's out. He's overplayed. He's not that interesting. And all he does is monologue to no end. I want him out of the thing, okay? You save him maybe later down the road when we get to the Smash Brothers universe. And I guess I blew my load early because we're going to the number one. And that's a Smash Brothers movie. We all knew it was gonna be here, right? We all knew this was gonna be the end game. We've established, oh, I forgot to say the one. We've established some key characters already. We have Mario. We have Donkey Kong from the Mario movie. He's a piggyback character, Ola Hulk.  It's part of it, but is it? Is it? We have two established characters, Donkey Kong. We got Diddy Kong in the mix. You can easily bring in more of these guys. But, oh my God, do we have a commercial break? Did YouTube just throw a commercial out? Let me know if there's a commercial. I don't know what happened. I saw a commercial go up, but we're past it now. Where was I? So we got two key, so we have two key ingredients right out of the gates. We have a Metroid film. So we got Samus in there. We have, what else do we do? We got a whole slew of Pokemon with Ash, Ketchum, Brock, and Misty all coming together for this. So what a nice family reunion. And we got Link. National treasure, Link himself. So we have a picture here, folks. Who are we gonna add on though? Who is the catalyst? Who is the person that brings this team together? Who's our Nick Fury of this Smash Brothers universe? I don't want Master Hand as the villain. We're walking away from Master Hand. The whole child play toy thing that they initially conjured up in the first Smash Brothers for the 64. It works, nobody cares. We're making a movie now, though.  That's not threatening, no matter how they play it out in the games. No matter what they wrap those gloves in, they're still Mickey. Ho, ho, ho, hi guys, ho, ho. Not happening. The villain's probably a combination of Bowser and Ganon coming together.  Okay, we don't need to figure that out right now. We're just trying to get through this first phase. We got Ganon, we got Bowser coming together, teaming up, it's gonna be the bedlam. It's gonna be crazy. Dead's rising.  And you know what else? We're gonna introduce Kirby. Kirby's gonna fly in on a star. It's gonna smash down from another planet. He's gonna help these guys out. He doesn't talk, because we gotta keep him cute. He's borderline a Pokemon already, so we're not really, it's not a bridge that far away from here. We gotta put some cameos in here too. Not gonna be big ones. They're just gonna be little throwaway shots, maybe while disaster is happening. We see how it's affecting others around the globe, maybe around, I don't think we take this universe levels. This is just an earth problem, or I guess whatever, mushroom kingdom is an earth. So yeah, it's an earth problem. We maybe see the ice climbers on their way up a mountain peak when some rumblings happen thanks to whatever shenanigans is going on. So they're like, and that's it, that's it. One shot of the ice climber is done.   I'd love to see that, that smug prick. Sorry, that's a personal hangup. We got Star Fox and the crew. We already established that very early on. They're gonna be in the mix. It's just such an easy win here. Nintendo really is the Disney of video games. I've said this, many people have said this. It's not hard to see why. Now they already have a theme park at Universal. It's all happening finally. What we saw back in the NES, SNES, 64 days, it's finally coming to fruition. I'm happy to be here. And those are my picks. There's a lot more we can go with. There's Earthbound, there's Pikmin, there's I guess more modern stuff would be whatever that Squid game is that people like. Not Squidbillies, that was a show. Squid Kids is nothing. Like three games. Splatoon. Maybe the Splatoon, maybe those Splatoon octopus things come into the later movies. It doesn't matter at that point. We're already making money. We're already having a good time. Those are my picks though. I think we need to start with a nice foundation. This provides us. This provides us with a lot. And most of them take place on Earth. We got some spit. And most of it takes place in this fictitious Earth that we've created with pallet towns and orange islands and mushroom kingdoms. So it's all kind of enclosed there with an occasional space ranger flying in and out in the mix. I want to hear from you though. You like this play? You like this setup? Let me know in the comments. Like this video if you had a good time. Please subscribe if you haven't. I post tons of movie reviews each and every week. Love to have you stick around with that. And with that I prepare my next Nintendo list for phase two, three and beyond. Take care. That was a long one. 25 minute recording sesh. Okay, it's 1107. We've been going for an hour. I have to do a Mandalorian spoiler review which will take like 10 minutes or so, 15 minutes. So why don't we do, we already knocked out two videos for maybe this week, next week, something like that. What is it today? Wednesday? Tomorrow I'll post the Mario review. Friday, I'll probably see a movie tomorrow night. I don't know what else is out. I know there's some other stuff coming out besides Mario. Well regardless, we got two out. We're gonna get Mando out. So for right now, if there's any super chat questions you want, this'll be a nice break before I go into the Mando spoiler. Any price range, $1, $10 super chats, have them, I'll answer your questions. We'll move on. I'll let you have a few minutes to decide. Here is just getting, if you wanna know when I'm getting a haircut, that's a good question. Look at, I'm sweating. Got sweat under here. It's hot under these light Seinfeld. And I know Frozen in the 80s gave me a super chat earlier. So if he had a question he wants to answer, just let me know. Yes, Maiden, that's exactly right. No, there's no AC running. There's actually a hilarious scene in Babylon. That's the movie, right, Babylon? God, what a terrible title for that. Where they're recording like old school Hollywood style and the AC so loud they have to keep it off and it has to be soundless in the entire room. It's so freaking funny. It's like a 20 minute sequence that's funnier than any comedy I've seen in the last decade. And Edward with a Ace Ventura II reference. Very nice, very beautiful. I'm bringing up my notes for Mandalorian, hang on. Okay, Mandalorian, this is gonna be spoilers. Not that anything of real consequence happens. But yeah, tread lightly. We're hitting record. Skiing. Oh, I have plenty of water. Don't worry about that. Don't worry about that. We're almost done. I have one more video. I generally, I watched these episodes of Mandalorian. I genuinely forget what they're about as soon as they're done. Recording, recording. I'm back again to talk about another episode of the Mandalorian. This time, the sixth episode of season three. Spoilers are plenty.  Let's begin. If you're liking the Mandalorian season three, I don't have anything. If you're liking the Mandalorian season three, there's no accounting for good taste or bad. You should walk away from this video. It's gonna be negative. I have a chip on my shoulder.  So it's kind of just a way for me to burn off some of the rage and anger I experience on a week to week basis. Could I walk away? Absolutely. But I watched every season of Lost because I hate myself. So I'm going to force watch Mandalorian sit there upset because a once great show has been completely burned to the ground at this point. Season three, episode six is a trash heap. There's really nothing good in it. And we're gonna break down the episode as a whole. I took notes because I honestly watched this show now and don't retain a single thing about it afterwards because it's so nonsensical. Nothing really makes sense at all is what I'm saying. There's story beats, of course. They don't function the way a normal show does. There will be plot points resolved in completely different shows. Like Mandalorian cliffhangers from season two are done in Boba Fett. There will be episodes of both series with different characters in the lead. And I wanna say, for instance, the book of Boba Fett started out as a book about a book. For instance, the book of Boba Fett started out as a show about the titular character Boba Fett, but by the time it was done, it was about Mandalorian and about the cool female side character of Boba Fett. Now here we are with the Mandalorian and the same things happening. He's a shell of his former self, which really was kind of a shell to begin with because he never takes his helmet off, so he's really not much of a character. Baby Yoda, Grogu, or Gragu, terrible name, now completely played for merchandise, has zero purpose on the show, somehow has become more like a baby than ever before.  I can't stand it. I hate this thing now, and I used to love it. I used to wanna collect the little dolls and stuff.  I'm joking, no, I wasn't that bad. Regardless, the show is, the show's very bad now. Oh, and my point that I was eventually gonna get to is it's about Boca. Oh, and the point I was eventually gonna get to is it's about Boca Tan. It's very much her show now, and she's about the only good character on it. They've made sure of it. Let's start things out, though, with the nice Romeo and Juliet-esque space intro, I guess is what you would say. We open this episode with a fish. We open this episode with a space fish called Wanda hanging out on a ship on a cruiser, and she's in some sort of a back. What are those things called? They wrote it down. Bacta. And she's just kind of lounging in one of those fish Bacta tanks. She even eats a fish at one point, kind of a celebratory snack. The thing releases itself, she's on a throne, and uh-oh, someone comes on the com.  It's Boca Tan's old crew. They're now rogue. They're now freelancing. Doesn't matter if it's a good guy or a bad guy paying, they just want that cash, money. Ain't nothing funny about what they're doing here though. They want a, what do they want to do? Okay. They have to recover a stowaway. They have, they're here to recover a stowaway. I don't know. They're here to recover a stowaway. At first the captain pushes back this Davey Jones daughter sort of character. She's like, I don't have him, I don't have him. And then he comes running in. Very bizarre scene because she seems very motherly and he seems like a teenager. So you have this bizarre fish romance, a fishmance, and it ends before it begins, thankfully. And then the title comes up and we don't have to go back to that ever again because it kind of disturbed me. After the intro love affair or I guess fish affair would be more appropriate, we're back with Boca Tan, little Grogu or Grogu. I never say his name right. I don't care to look it up. And Dinjaran himself. This is great how it's framed up. We really do a good job now.  We have Boca Tan, front and center. We got Boca, front and center, flying the craft.  The one-seater with the baby red shirts, just kind of fiddling with things. At one point he puts his finger up on what is clearly a sticker. Like he's gonna do something, but nothing happens at all. It's not touchscreen, it's just like a sticker. He's like, in all honesty, Boca Tan probably put him there for Mandalorian to just kind of play with, like a kid in the corner. This is just, these are the framing devices I look at and I just think, why? Who is this cool? It's a freaking TV series. When you're making a series or a movie in a fantasy world, make your characters cool. They have the technology. They have the cameras, they have the directors. You can say, okay, we're gonna open the shot.  Maybe Manda's just chilling in the back, sharpening his blade, working on his guns, something manly, something baller.  I was expecting him to start taking orders or filling prescriptions. This is Boca Tan's office, D'Angiarin speaking. How can I help you? Uh-huh, okay, sweetie, I'll get right on that. He's got the long fingernails. Okay, goodbye. I'll patch you through now.  They're heading down to Fantasy Planet to go see the other Mandalorians, the fallouts that we saw at the beginning, the intro of this episode. Because Boca Tan now, helmetless, because she's a day walker, like Blade. She's both Mandalorian and rogue Mandalorian. She can walk between both worlds. She's like Edward from Twilight. She sparkles, she shines, she's beautiful. And I love Kate Sackoff. She is absolutely stunning on the eyes. Every time she saunters in, I'm just all in with that.  He's just a shell of a man now. They're in this little shuttle that they're forced into by this mysterious new ownership going on on the planet. They're taken down and the door is open to what looks like something out of a bad Willy Wonka knockoff. This little room with the tables and the aliens doing drugs. It's very surreal. And often the corner of what appears to now be a Saturday Night Live skit is Jack Black and Lizzo. Jack Black and Lizzo are in this. Because of course they are. We had Tim Meadows in the last episode. People are just all over, just coming and going. There is no structure or tone to this. The first season was like a Wild West Star Wars thing. D'Angiarin was this cool, badass, bounty hunter.  It was awesome. Now we fast forward two seasons and it's just this bizarre half, it's just this awkward middle child stuck between the shitty prequels and the god-awful sequels. And it's trying to like play off of both of them. Like we're building stuff up to disappointment but we're not forgetting the past disappointment. Instead of focusing where they did initially, which was right in that middle where everything was nice and cherry. Episodes four, five, and six, the OGs.  And there's no structure and there's no semblance of narrative.  They're treated to Lizzo and King Jack Black.  It means little to me. At one point was working for the empire or something, an imperial officer. Now he's a goody-touches guy. The planet's thriving, they're doing great.  They have their own mercenary set in the distance.  I'll get to it. Anyway, they're gonna let Bo-Katan talk to her crew after they've solved the mystery of the island, which is why are some of the old droids doing bad stuff? They're doing some evil stuff, I think. So they have to go talk to the officer who's freaking Christopher Lloyd. Doc Brown, who looks to be 92, is playing this character with evil intentions. We don't know it at first, but it's pretty obvious. He tells these guys to go figure out what's going on with the droids. They take their different approaches. Mandalorians starts kicking one. He's like, ugh, ugh, ugh. That one's bad because I just kicked him a bunch and now he's chasing after me. So clearly, he wouldn't do that if he was under my control. There's an awful chase sequence. Looks like it was filmed on the back of a Nickelodeon studio lot. Awful, just awful all around. There's weird neon colors going on. Nothing fits. The color grading's all over the place. They take that thing out. Prophet, like, I don't know. What was the point of it? They then go to a Mos Eisley tavern. They then go to a Mos Eisley tavern, talk to some of the bots there. The droids are all pissed that they showed up. And this thing just never ends. This story goes on for an eternity and all I'm thinking is what is the point? The whole reason we're on the planet is to talk to the old crew. Instead, we're doing Looney Tunes adventures. We're doing Tiny Tunes adventures over here without the fun and shenanigans. It's just misery. Eventually, all roads lead back to Christopher Lloyd's character.  I liked the army. I liked the good old Clone Wars day. General Grievous, yada, yada, yada. I have a giant comical size red button right here. All I have to do is push it and all the droids turn evil. What was stopping him from doing it initially? What's his slow role plan here? And why is there a giant red button and no one's questioning it?  Here's the point I wanted to really get to. This mercenary crew, these bounty hunters for hire that are just hanging out eating sandwiches in the back lot of JC Penney's waiting for something to do. Why couldn't they be looking at, why couldn't they be on the search for this great mystery that is the angry bots, the Decepticons causing a muck? Why did Lizzo and Jack Black have to conveniently a hope for two more Mandalorians to show up so they could say, you two figure this out. We have like 60 dudes over there, but they're, you know, they're on lunch for the foreseeable future.  Speaking of stupid, the episode wraps. With them finally going to the crew who's again doing nothing because that's what the Mandalorians do and Boktan is like, listen, we all need to work as a team. We need to fasten the furious this thing become a family again. Leader, the new leader is like, you left us.  That guy's got it. You don't got it. You didn't challenge him for it. And now you want to challenge me? She challenges him. What does that mean? Well, that means they just start open firing in front of everyone, almost killing other members of the Mandalorians during this. It just happens. She's like, I challenged you, except it's like, yeah, I accept. It's so ludicrous. And this fight's okay. It's not the worst. It's at least something's happening. Mando's just sitting back watching. Dinjara is like, yep, this used to be my show. I used to have a point. Here, take my saber. I don't need it. You're the real owner anyways. It's yours. So because of some Harry Potter loophole bullshit, she convinces the others that, yeah.  Listen, here's what happened. I was down in the Mandalorian caves, ready to go into the pool and become a real Mandalorian again. I know, I know. Don't ask any questions about that planet that no one thought to just check out because they heard from a friend of a friend that it was toxic and you shouldn't go there but no one thought to just at least touch down and scan the area. I did, it's not toxic. Don't even ask a question about that though. I'm a full Mandalorian again because I went in the pool. Anyway, while I was down there, I got bombarded by a bunch of bad guys. Incomes Boca, Incomes Boca and she gets the saber, she takes out a guy with it or four because he beat me up and put me in a cage, stole the saber.  God, this show pisses me off. It just pisses me off. She gets to walk around helmetless. She looks cool.  He though is just so sad and lame. Like, yay, I'm a Mandalorian again. I get to keep doing exactly what I was doing the whole time wearing this helmet while I take a shit, while I go get the newspaper, while I go to bed at night, while I do everything. How fun. What is the point? What is the point of any of it? What is the point of this season? So it ends with her in a heroic pose, holding the blade, looking at the camera, winking and saying to us, Stroll Lead. And then it zooms in slowly on Grogu. And then it slowly zooms in to Grogu. It's about time. Can't remember if it's Grogu or Grogu. I'm gonna get that one right. I'm gonna look it up after this. The pronunciation. A dum-da-da-dum-da-da-dum-dum-dum. Let's get a bit of a bum-ba-bum-ba-bum. The show is dumb. Dum-dum-dum-dum-dum-dum. This show is. Well, there's my rant on the Mandalorian season three, episode six. We're almost done with this thing. I think there's eight episodes. I hope to the gods there is eight episodes. Because this nightmare needs to just be over. And then we can get the book of, book of Tan. We can get the book of the Fish Lady from the beginning of the episode who has more character development than Din Djarin already. Maybe we get the book of Lizzo. Get the book of Lizzo in the mix. And then on episode four or five, we'll resolve stuff from the book of Boba Fett. And then episode seven or eight will resolve whatever's gonna happen at the end of this. Mandalorian season three. Season kill me. Let me know your thoughts on this season as a whole in the comments below. Are you just completely checked out now and you only watch this because you need some sort of sanity back in your life? Or are you hate watching it? Because again, you're like me. You're dead inside. Like the video if you had some fun. Please subscribe if you haven't. I post tons of movie reviews and TV show thoughts. Especially on the Mandalorian every single week. Love to have you here. Take care. Sometimes I forget I'm live streaming still. Okay, it is 11.30 my time. I'm getting pretty tired. Didn't really get too far in this drink. It feels like I've been nursing it for quite a while but it's probably best that I don't drink anymore. Last chance for any super chats. We were hot and heavy with super chats on the last stream on Friday. So maybe Friday is just, that's the time. That's the time to stream. If you have any questions, comments, concerns, let me know. If you have any questions, I guess I could just answer them right now. We don't need to do super chats. Those are just appreciated. Yeah, so we'll open it up for some questions for a couple minutes and then I'm gonna head out.  No, they think it's cool. They don't really watch. My kids aren't really on YouTube. I don't like, they're still pretty young. I mean, Olivia's 14 but Connor's only 10, almost 11. God, the kids are getting old. Yeah, they just, they're not really in that space yet. We try to keep them offline as much as possible. So they know I do videos on YouTube. Olivia's actually, I'm teaching her to edit. So at some point, I'll have her edit the shorts so that her and Lindsay can become a little team and help me promote the channel because it's just hard to edit all this crap.  The ones that are a little easier to just chop a couple times and be done. Defiant asks, what's your dong size? Just right to it. I think it's probably decent average. I'd say average.  Do you like the recent trilogy of Star Wars? The sequel trilogy? No, I don't. I like Force Awakens a lot when it hit. I still would like it a lot if I knew it led to something. But now I can't even watch them because I honestly think the last Jedi is just absolute trash. It became fun to hate on that but I was hating on that from day one of seeing it in the theaters because I genuinely thought it looked amazing. Trailers were fantastic. Visually, it's stunning. I think it's probably the prettiest Star Wars movie ever. I just don't like the movie at all. I think it's a horrible story. I think Ryan Johnson's a great director though and he is a good writer and he just wanted to make something different. The problem was he took over a franchise that was already seven movies deep and decided now's the time to kind of shake things up instead of staying the course and leading to a natural conclusion. And then Rise of Skywalker. At that point I was going in just looking for a fun, entertaining movie.  The plot's terrible. But I don't want to watch any of them ever again. I don't like the prequels either though. What video of yours brought in the biggest increase of subscribers? That's a good question. Like in recent years? I don't know. Oh, I actually do know.  It's not revolutions. It was Reloaded Revolutions. What was the new one called? Revolutions was the third one. The Matrix. I've blocked it all to my mind completely at this point. I don't even want to think about it. The Matrix 4 brought in a large chunk, thousands of new subscribers. The Buzz Lightyear video brought in a decent amount too but that was definitely the most popular one in recent memory. Which movies are you looking forward to and why? I actually did an April on the last live stream. I did movies coming out this month that I'm looking forward to. There was like five of them on there. Air, I'm looking forward to. I think that might be the other one that's out this week. I have to look. I might be seeing that tomorrow. Air, I'm really looking forward to. I think. What else was on there? I don't know. I'd have to honestly go back. I actually researched ahead of time what was coming out this month. Oh, Reinfield, that vampire one with Nicholas Cage looks fun and Nicholas Holt. Is it Nicholas Holt? Two Nicholases in the same movie, that's unreal. There was like five movies this month alone that I'm looking forward to. Outside of this, I haven't really looked beyond at what's coming. Indiana Jones, I'm very nervous about.  Flash looks cool. I don't know. I'm honestly week to week at this point. When the movie comes out, I see it if I like it great. If not, yeah. Do you like the live action Scooby-Doo films? Alan asks, they're okay. They're fine. They're fine. I think I did a movie. I know I did a movie Feuds on them. I did Scooby-Doo one versus two. That was a fun video. I can't remember if I did it for my channel though or for real rivalries on Screen Rant. Yeah, those are James Gunn ridden, I think. He wrote one of them for sure. Yeah, they're fine. They're silly. Oh yes, Spider-Man Across the Spider-Verse for sure looking forward to that. I think that's a part one, isn't it? They're two part in that thing. I'm very much looking forward to that. Evil Dead Rise was on my list as well. I'm looking forward to Evil Dead Rise, yes. April, April's a solid month. We got a lot of good stuff. All right, it's 1137. I could probably play a little bit of Hogwarts. I'm really liking that game still. I'm probably about 80% through it, tasks and all. Really enjoying the world, really enjoying all that. They put so much into that game. It's insane. Just walking around, Hogsmeade is amazing. And then the castle, of course, Hogwarts. And the fact that there's an entire map of stuff, very impressed, very impressed with that game. They could have made a show or a movie about that. Would have been very nice, very well done. All right guys, I hope this was okay. I think it went pretty well. You get a little bit of the insight of how I film my videos and then the editing that's gonna be involved with them and just the amount of work it takes. It's fun doing this live. I was doing this live on Twitch. There's a bigger audience here. And hopefully I will stay consistent with it. Fridays of the day, I plan on doing most of the streaming stuff, and that has a much bigger audience. Yeah, it's all about consistency, so I'll get there. I'll figure it out, but this was a good time.  And I'm looking at the wrong camera. I can look at this one now. Hopefully you had some fun and we'll do it again this Friday, probably around the same time. 9.30, 10 o'clock is what I'm shooting for. Stream will keep getting a little better as I figure things out, but for the most part, yeah, it's just gonna be me doing live filming. I do wanna bring back the poster breakdown videos. I think those were fun to do. And I have the green screen. You can't see it, but I do have a green screen over here. And it's really easy to just move this stuff around and shoot that way. I also have to get stuff on my second channel, Adam After Dark, that skip based channel. I do wanna keep pushing that as well. So I gotta get material there, which means actually filming stuff for it so much. All right, thanks again. We'll talk to you soon. Oh my God, right as I'm leaving. Gumo, I think I said it right. Sumo, Gumo, what's your favorite video game of all time? He asked me such a loaded question. I'm trying to think of the game I played the most. And then I'm trying to think of the game that I had the fondest memory of. Honestly, because of the period in my life where I was at, which would have been high school transitioning college, Halo 3 was the game I played more than any other game in the world. For multiple years straight, I was living and breathing Halo 3, multiplayer against my friends and online. The multiplayer component of Bungie's game is like bar none untouchable, or it was at that time. So that's definitely like top five ever. Like original Mario Brothers I think is such a classic iconic game that you could still play today. And it would, I do sometimes bust that out. And I'm like, this game's still amazing. It's so simplistic, but the controls are so perfectly executed and it's a freaking eight bit system. It's just this charming, it's a charming game. I really love Uncharted 2. I like Naughty Dog's games for the story and the spectacle because I'm a movie guy. They kind of fit with, you know, that whole universe. Last of Us was a brilliant game for the story. The gameplay itself isn't anything I find that fascinating. It's kind of tedious, but the story and the characters and the performances are just hands down like unbeatable.  Now I just don't have time to play games like I did and they're games. I have a game on my PS5 I haven't even touched yet which is God of War, the second one. I mean, technically it's like the seventh or eighth one but the second one of the new series. Haven't touched it yet, it's there on the system along with like Sackboy moves, not Sack, Sackboy's big adventure that was free this month from PlayStation. Haven't touched it, kind of wanted to try it out.  I mean, yeah, great question. I just, there's so many games I've played over my lifetime. At different points, I mean good memories and games. It's hard to pinpoint exactly where, but if you asked me like point blank, I'd say probably Halo 3 just for the gameplay, the visuals at the time and the amount that I played that for sure. Oh man, Max Payne was awesome. I agree man, that was a great game. I love Max Payne, I could talk video games forever. All right, now I'm leaving for sure. Thank you guys for watching, we'll see you soon. Take care. I don't actually know how to stop the stream from YouTube. Stream, it's right here. Okay, end stream and goodbye.


Hey there lovers and friends, I am joined by my lover and my best friend in my life, partner, Jared Brady. And today, we're finna, what camera do I look at? This one or this one? What? It doesn't matter. Which one are you looking at? I don't want us to look cross-eyed. Today, we're finna do the commitment quiz together on camera. You've been going hammer with these quiz making, huh? Really? Yeah. So the very best way to figure out what your turn on trigger is, is through a quiz. So, if you haven't done my quiz, I am gifting you all with my self summary workbook. Okay, so apparently I'm obsessed with quizzes right now, but that's because my new mantra is to make you all relationship experts. And today, I've been to find out if me and my life partner have the same commitment values. Do you think we do? I think we do. Why do you say it so slow? Because I wrote, I wrote the quiz. And so as I'm typing the questions out, there were some that I wasn't sure how you were gonna respond. And the thing with this quiz in particular is there's nine different results you could get, which means a lot of them are pretty similar. Like, they're not drastically different. So I feel like we'll be in the same zone. Are we gonna be in the same base? Not sure. The nine different results that you possibly could get are casual dating, serial non-committed dating, traditional monogamy, modern monogamy, monogamish, free relationship, open relationship, swinging, and polyamory. So which one do you think we're gonna get? Like Jared said, I've been doing a lot of quizzes of late. So you guys know to drill by now. Go to thegameofdesire.com slash commitment, get your result and share it with me.    Yeah. All right, so the first thing that I did and very early on is I changed your ringtone to a specific ringtone. And you also had a specific text message chime. That was specifically because I didn't want for every time my phone to ring, that I would suspect it was you, and then look at my phone and be disappointed that it wasn't. And that is- Is that a real thing? Yeah, because think of a casino, right? A casino, nothing creates an addiction like an inconsistent reward. You can get access to the full episode as soon as you get my new book out this July where I teach you everything I know. Okay, back to the video. All right, Jared Brady, we are about to find out what your current ideal relationship structure is. Aside from clarifying feelings amongst those involved, which of these expresses why commitment is most important to you? I chose, it communicates to others what myself and my partner already know about our connection. Yeah, that's what I chose too. Yes? Yes, why did you choose that? I think a label is for other people to understand. That's just me personally. I think labels don't do anything. They don't hold your partner hostage. They don't stop them from doing anything different. They don't do anything other than communicate to others. You guys already know what it is. You should know what it is. You do. You know what you and even if you in denial and the deep of your pits of your heart, you know what you and that person share, whether it's commitment, whether it's not commitment, you know what that is.  Hey, this is my girlfriend. Hey, this is my wife.   Oh, I know what someone that is just dating.  So I just think labels are only for everyone else. That's what labels meant to us. And that's why we took a long time to choose a label because we were most concerned about organically figuring out what made sense for the two of us. And then we chose a label to fit. But a lot of people, the label brings the clarity, which then allows them to create a structure of accountability and that solidifies the relationship. So the label, when you go to a job, for example, you're like, am I an intern? Am I the manager? Am I the supervisor? Like I need to know, so I know how to conduct myself within my given role. If I don't know what my role is, it's hard for me to do my job. How would you describe your relationship with jealousy? I said, I'm not a jealous person at all. And it's important that my partner isn't either. Oh, I didn't choose that. What did you choose? I chose, I enjoy jealousy. It's a turn on to me. Spooky, that's still in lines with my answer, though. It is in line, but what I'm acknowledging, you're saying you're not jealous, which I will confirm Jared is not a jealous person. I think sometimes that was a problem for your previous relationship. I will say, I will say. Do say it. I will say to add a layer to it. The only time that I ever experience any type of jealousy is when I don't know what position I'm in. If I don't know that I am like important and that I could be out, then I start feeling weird. But then I start getting prideful and I say, or I will, I'll do me. I think that like sometimes I told you this, when we have sex, I picture you in my mind being intimate with somebody else. I think that when I've seen you, on sets of your videos with other women, there's this thing inside of me that's like, I don't like this, but I'm like, oh, I kind of like that, I don't like it. It's hot to think about you as a free person in this world who could connect with others. And so it's a turn on to me. So I am jealous, but I think it's a fetish. I enjoy it. Do you see a strong benefit to being in a publicly acknowledged, committed relationship? 100%, I chose yes, being in a relationship that makes an impact on my overall life, family values, careers, social status, et cetera. Yes. I think 100%. I'm actually shocked that you chose that. Why? It's so obvious that a relationship is a benefit to my well-being. Yes, it is. But remember when we first started dating? Yes. You were in artist mode and you were like, it's not in my benefit to be in a relationship because you want to keep that. Well, that's me comparing it to my old relationships. So I can't fully be in artist mode and be desirable or desire. I can't fully be in artist mode and still create a desire around me when I'm constantly mitigating what I'm saying, if I'm constantly thinking about the other person. Yes, if you know it's gonna hurt your partner. Yeah, so I'm the person that's like, if I'm in a relationship, I want to uplift that person. If they say to me, hey, this is not okay for me. I can't deal with you flirting with women. Then I'm going to try my best to hold that down. And that's not in your benefit overall? It's not in my benefit. It doesn't make me feel good. It makes me feel caged. So overall, that would be toxic to me. But the relationship and being in a relationship that is public is good for me and my well-being. Oh no, 100%. I mean, this one is obvious to me. We talked about this several times before, but yeah, our relationship and being in a public relationship benefits me in every range. And I also think that it increases my desire out there in the world. I don't feel like I experienced less. I mean, I'm just mean, I feel like I'm hot in the street still. Are you interested in experiencing other people romantically with your partner in brackets S in case you are in a poly relationship? I think maybe it's like a one-time thing. But I would like to keep those separate. I chose the same thing. Yeah. Yes. I just feel like the whole thing about being free. What? We're just on the same page. The whole thing about being free is experiencing things. And I think it would allow me to fully indulge and experience the other person because I would be so focused on you. Yeah, I think that it's hard enough to create chemistry with somebody. Having to always be mindful if the three of us can be connected is just a lot. So if I have a connection with somebody I don't worry about if you also feel excited by that person. Yeah. If once in a while that does and we've never engaged in a threesome before, I think it's something that's on the table for both of us. Yeah. But that's not what excites me about keeping our relationship open to some extent. Yeah, I agree. The idea of one person only for life makes me feel... Great, but I also have some questions. I need some outlets to express my desire for others and vice versa. Yes, I chose that one too. Yeah. I battle between that one and uncomfortable. I don't wanna make any for life decisions when I still have so much life ahead of me. But in truth, I feel really good about the decision I made. I like the idea of going full on for forever. Yes. If it doesn't go for forever I'm not gonna be so angry with myself but I like having that energy and putting that towards it. So I am attracted to the idea of being like, this is my forever. But I would like outlets. Yes.  That's exactly, I felt like, yeah, I love it but can we talk a little bit? Like what do we mean by only? Like what does only mean? After repeatedly talking to your partner, Zuh, you have become aware that they are not capable of fulfilling some of your important needs. So your instinct is to? I chose, I never expected one person to fulfill all of my needs or vice versa. That's why I don't subscribe to monogamy. I chose communicate to my partner that I am considering exploring others that can. So I feel, I guess the difference between those two is that there's just an acknowledgement of your comfort still. Yeah. Where it's not like, well, obviously Jerry's not gonna be my be-all and end-all so I gotta do my thing. It's like, okay, if I've spoken to you a lot and I'm just like, this is not working, I'm gonna come to you and be like, hey, this is where I'm like considering exploring, what do you think? Yeah. Which in like truth, those are similar? Yeah. I don't, I don't know how I feel about that. I don't not expect you, there's nothing I guess currently that you just don't do for me. Yeah. So, but in the future things could change and there's so much life left to live. So I, I guess in general too, I don't want to keep expectations. Yeah. So you should have chose the other one. I'm not sure who I am anymore. The idea of seeing your partner passionately kiss someone else makes you... Happy for them above all else. Really? Yeah. Okay, you don't act like you don't have make out stuff all over your channel. Okay. Okay. I'm trying to act shocked.  Okay, that's funny. But I thought that you would have picked, think it's time for the two of us to redefine the relationship. Well, the relationship's already defined. Yeah. It doesn't need to be redefined. So if they happen right now, just be happy for you. I chose jealous, but also kind of turned on slash happy for you. Yeah. Which is what I already explained. So the same thing. But the difference is you're not turned on by the idea of me with someone else. No. It doesn't like get you all like... Because Tim was saying on his podcast, No Chasers that he watches this porn star who looks like his wife. Yeah. Because when he sees that, it's like... But it's not his wife. Of course it's not. It's not Chia. No, I know what I'm saying. But it's not his wife. So would she... But it arises those feelings of like... If he's imagining that he's that porn star driving you home on her. I don't think so. I think he's imagining watching his wife sleep with someone else and that's a turn on. But it's not. I don't think so. We can ask him. We should give him a call right now. Tim. I'm sitting here with Jared and we were having this debate. Yeah. So first and foremost, that part in the No Chasers podcast where you talked about watching that porn star that looked like Chia, you kept that in, right? Okay. So it's not like a secret. No. All right. So do you enjoy watching that because it makes you feel jealous and turned on? Or Jared thinks you watch it because you picture yourself as the dude? Both.  Both. All right.   That was great. Thank you. I appreciate that. All right. You're welcome. Live your life. Okay, bye. Bye.  I would tell them to explore it, explore the possibilities with that person while keeping me in the loop so we can decide together what this means for our relationship. I chose that too. Yeah. And that is an interesting choice for you, Jared Brady. Why? Because you used to have a don't ask, don't tell policy. I still would prescribe, if I was in a different relationship I would still subscribe to that because I trust your judgment so well that I don't need, why do I need to know every little bit of detail? If there's something where you're deciding between if you wanna continue to have me as your main and then also maybe possibly getting into something else, then that's different. But if you're just going to have an experience and then you're gonna go and just have fun with some guy, I don't really, how many times can we talk about that?  So it's just like, it's like, okay, cool. Like, I already know what that is. So it's just like, unless it's changing from an experience and just fun and changing it to like, hey, you might be replaced. Then I needed to be aware of that. You know what? I, to answer your question, how many times can it be talked about in my books? Never enough. No, I get that. I could talk about that all day long. I get that. Like if you, like Jared shot a commercial the other day and he had like a love interest as, you know, who was cast with him. I wanted to hear everything. Like, what did you guys do? How did it feel? Like, who was the flirt? Like, let's reenact it together. Like, I love, I don't know. I love love in relationships though. So I'm fascinated by all of that. This is amazing. What did you guys do? What did, how did you look at her? I looked at her like, like it was the first time I was looking at the girl that I loved. Oh. And then you just like, whip the hair. Oh. What is your attachment style? This is an easy one. Secure. Secure. All right, this question will probably be changed by the time you guys do the quiz because I was up for like two hours last night crafting it and Jared's like, you haven't hit it yet. It's just not it. But based on what I have right now. Yeah. The question is the year is 2075. You're talking to a group of 20 year olds about whatever phase your love life is currently in. What do you say? As long as I was first, we were fine. That has been my only stipulation. I choose to love my partner for who they are and not how well they follow the rules. I chose if relationships were windows, think of the rules you place on them like paint. It might look nice, but it also prevents you from seeing your partner clearly. So that's kind of a similar thing. But in essence for me, I'm just like, I think I'm less worried about, and I don't know this for a fact, but I think I could successfully be in a relationship with you where you loved somebody equally to me. I don't think you could be accomplished that. I don't think so, yeah. But I think that I could be like, okay, like this is a phase or this is something that has to be experienced. And I don't think that that would be a deal breaker for me. So that might be the difference in you and I. I don't think, I don't know, I don't think. All right, are you ready to get your results? Yeah. Okay. After doing the quiz, do you think we're gonna match up? Yeah. All right, one, two, three, go. Oh, I got free relationship. I got open relationship. Okay, I think that's not off. It's the same. It's the same. Well, free relationship I think is more true to me because I don't necessarily, I could probably fit in any relationship style with you successfully to the point. Yeah, you could be in a monogamous. I could be monogamous. I could be polyamory. I feel like I could do monog, I think right now in truth, our relationship as is is monogamish. Yeah. Because we don't actively, which has been the debate on this channel of like, is it open, is it not? I think we are like open to open, but it's monogamish where if you went through my DMs, you'd probably find some things that a married woman shouldn't be saying. But it's not that I've actually acted on any of that. Yeah. Which is still open.  Let's rewind the video where he was like, labels matters. They communicate. No, I said they communicate to other people what it is. But like, they're so grayish. They're so grayish. But that's okay. I mean, this is the thing with labels. It is like a quick way to get to your point. A label is for fast digestion. But the nuances are something different. So the thing with this relationship quiz, people who have already taken it were saying to me, well, what if me and my partner did not get the same result? Is that right? They all got some conversations to be had. That's the truth. I think if you've got very conversely, again, there's nine different results and it is a spectrum to some degree. And so if you are traditional monogamous and your partner is looking for serial non-committed dating, I'd say that's a problem. There has to be some conversations had so that two of you can realistically manage expectation. But if one of you is open and the other of you is free, it can work out. Right? It can work out. You scared? No, I'm not scared. All right, so you have to go into this quiz for yourself. I think this is a really important quiz to do whether you're in a relationship, have not been in a relationship, or are currently playing around to see what might work for you and ex people. So go to thegameofdesire.com slash commitment to do this quiz for yourself. And as an extra thing that I really hope people who watch this video do, because if you've watched this long, that means that you are somebody who has said you were passionate about this area, do the full workbook. The full workbook, I think, is an incredible opportunity to create the language around your intimate self so that one, you know yourself better, but also two, you can communicate your needs effectively to others. I like talking about these things. If you like talking about it too, the workbook is for you. Go to thegameofdesire.com slash let's go to gain access to this full episode as soon as you submit your proof of purchase. Thank you. Goodbye, lovers and friends. You know what I will say worked really well, I think in my benefit and overall in our benefit was I viewed our relationship extremely transactional. And so I never did more than I felt I was gonna receive in return. Because once you start over investing in someone, that's when you're hoping for payouts. I didn't do that. So if I cooked for you, I knew that you would look after my plants when I went away. It wasn't about us increasing the intimacy, it was more about us matching what the other person was giving. So I think around that time was when I knew like, okay, I'm doing a little bit more. I'm talking to her a little bit more and I'm not talking to anybody else right now. So something else is happening here. But I definitely wanted to keep the freedom. Oh, I'm talking about Bayley. What you talking about? Yeah, a cocaine then.
