The Brothers BS
From Console to Cinema: Video Games Ready for Their Hollywood Moment
What happens when beloved video games make the leap from console to cinema? Four gaming-enthusiast brothers dive deep into this creative crossroads, exploring untapped virtual worlds ripe for Hollywood adaptation—with one crucial rule: the games cannot have hit the silver screen yet.
The conversation weaves through several compelling candidates that deserve the movie treatment. Devil May Cry emerges as a natural fit for an action-packed adaptation, with the brothers debating which actors could capture Dante's distinctive blend of supernatural combat prowess and charismatic personality. Luigi's Mansion receives passionate advocacy as the perfect follow-up to the successful Super Mario Bros. Movie, potentially delivering a family-friendly ghost-hunting adventure with the perfect blend of humor and light scares.
Horror game enthusiasts will appreciate the detailed discussion of The Dark Pictures Anthology's cinematic potential. These narrative-driven experiences, already structured like interactive films, could translate beautifully to an anthology horror series while maintaining their character-focused storytelling. The conversation takes a surprising turn when Portal receives unanimous support, with the brothers highlighting how its innovative concepts, confined setting, and memorable antagonist GLaDOS could create something truly unique in the film landscape.
Throughout their debate, the brothers don't shy away from criticizing past video game adaptations, particularly lamenting how the Resident Evil films departed from the games' compelling storylines and atmospheric horror. Their passionate exchanges reveal a deeper truth about successful adaptations: they must honor what fans love about the original while crafting something that stands on its own cinematic merits.
Whether you're a dedicated gamer, film enthusiast, or simply enjoy listening to siblings playfully argue their positions, this episode offers thought-provoking perspectives on storytelling across different media. Which game would you most want to see adapted? Join the conversation and share your thoughts in the comments!
All right, on today's episode, we are going to be discussing video games that should be adapted into movies, but the parameter that we put on today's is it can't be a video game that's already been adapted into movies. So that is today's discussion. Sit back and join the conversation on today's episode of the Brothers in the Middle. All right, everybody, welcome to the second episode of the Brothers BS. So if you were here for our first episode, what we do to introduce ourselves is I will come up with a prompt, you will introduce who you are and then you will tell whatever your question is. So today's is what movie do you think had the best soundtrack? That's gonna be a hard one for everybody. This could, this could be its own episode. Do we have genres or?
Speaker 2:any, nope, any movie that had the best soundtrack soundtrack, not score soundtrack.

Speaker 3:Rocky IV is really hard to beat. For me, there's not a song that doesn't make you want to go out and fight. It's true, it really did what it set out to do.
Speaker 4:We may all have fought to a song from Rocky IV.
Speaker 3:Either that or you had a dream about fighting Russia. We got into a fight, oh yeah.

Speaker 1:was what it was called, and he plays he plays Harry, plays harry, who is dexter's dad in that and so you know, and I love, I love christian slater, but really I don't know if I could watch anybody else besides whatever that guy's name is, the guy that played raiden yeah, uh, christopher lambert, that's the one, not him.
Speaker 4:No, I knew that was gonna get everybody's that you pick him plays are.
Speaker 1:You know it's going to be the best part about what's going on on the screen right now Everybody's going to talk about how I just Googled Google. That's something the kids say you just Googled Google. I want to go to the Google website before I Google something. Is that weird? Do you all do that when you look something up online, do you all? I don't care as long as you tell me what I need to know. I'm going to look up facts.
Speaker 3:You're looking up through Mortal Kombat Annihilation.
Speaker 4:James Remar, james Remar, he's good, he's got a great voice. He was the first Corporal Hicks.
Speaker 3:He was fantastic.
Speaker 1:Did he die? No, he's alive, he's still alive.
Speaker 4:He is not dead. We kill people off.
Speaker 3:We relate them to people who they're not related to anymore, he's older than dirt, though he's great though.
Speaker 4:He's like five years older than dirt.
Speaker 1:He's an age, for sure. I hear he was born in what 53?.
Speaker 4:He might be a good judge. He's not super old.
Speaker 1:I don't think. Although Judd is a lifetime smoker, I don't think I see Judd with a raspy voice no he kind of is one of those.
Speaker 2:I guess you're right.
Speaker 1:But does cigarettes cause cancer? You know what I mean? Yeah, does smoking cause cancer, because Judd Crandall is still alive, am I right?
Speaker 3:he's not still alive. He got killed with a scalpel hey blood types.
Speaker 1:Nicotine, that's right yeah, mortal Blood types, nicotine, that's right. Yeah, mortal Kombat movies, man, ooh, they were bad.
Speaker 4:They were.
Speaker 1:They were bad, but gosh, I love watching them.
Speaker 3:Yeah, you love them. The second one is a hard watch. It is a real hard watch. Somebody honestly tell me you really like the second one.
Speaker 1:As soon as Raiden shows up with the short hair in the Aladdin vest, it's a hard watch, yeah it is tough.
Speaker 4:The short hair in the Aladdin vest. He did. He did no bench presses or anything no, they like.
Speaker 1:This is a fighting movie, if that but that was, god bless him.
Speaker 3:Brian Thompson was having a fun time playing the Emperor, but oh, your eyes roll so hard.
Speaker 2:The lady that played Sindel you I mean well, so hot, but no, watch her in movie called retracts, sorry.
Speaker 4:Adam.
Speaker 1:Adam had a stroke.
Speaker 3:She is beautiful she's still pretty I think I haven't seen her recently. I thought it was funny that the actress who played Sindel has to talk about her being her mother. Mother, you're still alive. She was in Talisa.
Speaker 2:Soto's like 10 years older than that girl. Riff Trax does something from. It's called it's like a space western. It's a B, like a B or.
Speaker 1:C or D space western.
Speaker 4:I love Riff Trax Like terrible. Reach out guys, we really like you.
Speaker 1:We discussed this a little bit on the last one. But I'm not huge on sci-fi but I've got to say Firefly is. Firefly is one of the most amazing shows ever made.
Speaker 4:If Fox wouldn't have crapped the bed so bad on Firefly, it would have been bigger than Star Trek, I think. I think, it had absolutely.
Speaker 3:I don't think so. The only thing that was as good as Star Trek and it was a shadow Think about the chemistry between Tudyk and Fillion.
Speaker 4:I mean the whole-.
Speaker 3:I'm not taking anything away from it. Oblivion Incredible, but what it Well, somebody I heard it in a movie one time. They were talking about what if you could reverse universes and Buffy suffered the fate of Firefly and Firefly went on to be Buffy, oh, all day. It would have turned into the same cheesy, silly show that Buffy did.
Speaker 4:No, it wouldn't have, because Whedon was still Whedon, doesn't have any kind of distance though.
Speaker 1:No distance whatsoever he does. I agree with that.
Speaker 4:I think the stars would have aligned and fate would take over to make it amazing.
Speaker 1:But Serenity wasn't good.
Speaker 4:Serenity was a middle finger to Fox.
Speaker 1:I mean, I understand that, but he had a chance and he killed Wash.
Speaker 4:I know, come on, dude In one of the worst ways possible.
Speaker 3:Terrible, terrible Kill the doctor Kill Simon. Kill everybody.
Speaker 4:I mean, if we would have known ahead of time Buck could have been the sacrificial character.
Speaker 1:But Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I've got to be honest. I've never watched an episode of the show. I was never interested in it whatsoever, but I absolutely love that movie?
Speaker 4:Yeah, Paul Reubens, Christy Swanson.
Speaker 1:Rutger Hauer.
Speaker 4:Rutger Hauer.
Speaker 3:And I'm not even a fan of the show, but I can look at it and say the show, for what it set out to be, was very good the first couple of years, sarah Michelle.
Speaker 4:Gill was good looking Then it becomes this.
Speaker 3:it's kind of like Supernatural. Supernatural started out pretty darn good and then it turns into the silliest, most ridiculous. Yeah, what else can we do just to push incredulity as much as humanly possible?
Speaker 1:I like Buffy the Vampire Slayer for the same reason I like most 80s movies. Is you kind of get lost in the campiness?
Speaker 4:Yeah. And I just think they did such a good job with the humor in that Paul Reuben's doing the long dying scene was hilarious.
Speaker 3:Rutger Hauer being the big bad, he was really good in it, yeah he was good and Luke Perry.
Speaker 4:Luke Perry was in it RIP. He actually is dead. Evan, Is he dead?
Speaker 1:He is dead, dylan, yeah.
Speaker 4:That wasn't the prompt for today, though, right? No?
Speaker 3:Okay, art, uh, david.
Speaker 1:Vandelay.
Speaker 3:No.
Speaker 4:Art Vandelay Imports and exports. David Duchovny Morse. Scream Arquette, arquette. David Duchovny Morris.
Speaker 3:What's his name? Arquette Arquette, david Arquette.
Speaker 4:He played his little buddy, yeah, but he's doing the wrestling thing now. He's what, david Arquette, he's like a big time wanting to be like a professional wrestler. Have you not seen? Wasn't that in the early 2000s? No, that wasn't even early 2000s, with no, that wasn't even early 2000s.
Speaker 1:That was late 90s ready to rumble still really yeah you know speaking of I mean, I don't know, this is crazy linking the worlds, but do you know who one of the writers for wwe is right now? Who's that? Freddie prince jr oh wow, yeah he's been writing for him for about 10 years now, I think well sarah michelle giller. Right, that's the linking we bring things together that's right. Probably not people related, hey Adam.
Speaker 4:Knock your phone off. They might be siblings too.
Speaker 1:I hope not. I hope not. They're married. That's a West Virginia thing, yeah, not really.
Speaker 4:We love West Virginia too, Okay.
Speaker 1:It's almost heaven.
Speaker 4:It's true.
Speaker 1:So they're apparently making the Mortal Kombat 2, so did you all watch the new Mortal Kombat movie?
Speaker 4:Oh it was terrible. Did not see it so bad.
Speaker 3:There's a new one. There weren't enough characters.
Speaker 4:You have to bring in a new character.
Speaker 1:Scorpion was incredible though A really boring new character.
Speaker 4:Yeah, he was. I can heart it in my body. We had Jax we had Jax with the metal arm, that sort of tremor guy.
Speaker 1:No, he's not like. Tremor. He turns just like into brass or something. He gets this old armor.
Speaker 2:Well, it's a really stupid thing.
Speaker 4:So they have like birthmarks the.
Speaker 1:Kevin Bacon movie Birthmarks where they it's like that means that you're going to be in the Mortal Kombat and it looks like the Mortal Kombat logo instead of it just being I didn't think Shang Tsung looked like he was wearing a wig the whole time.
Speaker 4:He might have been.
Speaker 2:I thought Terry Tory, kerry, kerry Tagawa did a good Shang Tsung Me too.
Speaker 4:I think he makes up people sometimes. That's his name.
Speaker 3:He was the one who was in the real movie.
Speaker 4:They brought him back to being more. It has begun okay.
Speaker 1:They brought him, yeah he. That's a good example of campy acting. That's just like spot on fantastic yeah delicious camping.
Speaker 4:Uh, kano was good in the movie.
Speaker 3:Why hasn't that been made?
Speaker 1:it's so you. They're trying to give it too much of a plot.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you don't have to well they're trying to appeal to more than what Mortal Kombat fans.
Speaker 1:Well, that's the biggest issue. So our prompt today has to do with video games. But that's, I think, one of the biggest issues with them trying to adapt to video games or even Star Wars or anything like that. They're trying to adapt that stuff and they're like we got to broaden the audience. While they're broadening the audience, they're kind of like alienating the originals and so like they did that with the last of us and they've done that with you know, everybody was complaining about me being such a Spider-Man, pierce.
Speaker 3:It's like why didn't the first Spider-Man movie have Gwen Stacy? Oh, nobody remembers Gwen Stacy. Spider-man has Spider Stacey. Spider-man has been popular for 50 years because people remember that crap.
Speaker 4:And the people that are going to go watch your movie are the original fans, and then they're going to tell other people. I've told my wife this before coming home from a movie, I'll say I want you to go back and watch it with me, because it's not just a fill-in-the-blank movie Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Superman it is a good movie that happens to be about this character that I care about. Yeah.
Speaker 1:It is. It's if you tell a good story, people are going to like it and we, you know, we're huge video game people and there are a couple things like video games that the story's. Just, I probably still to this day can't tell you the story of Street Fighter, and I've played that since I was zero years old.
Speaker 4:You didn't get that. Ryu was just trying to find his.
Speaker 1:If you say Ryu one more time instead of Ryu.
Speaker 2:I'm going to jump across this table. It's his name guys.
Speaker 1:I'm going to jump across this table and pop you.
Speaker 3:It's actually pronounced D-U-U, I don't care. Oh, is it? It's.
Speaker 1:Ryu. I was close to his name. It's Ryu and Ken, that's. Do you know?
Speaker 4:are you Ken? Or whatever, it's really the question are you Ken?
Speaker 1:No, it's not Sure, you Ken, that's not true, oh really.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I watched a video of somebody saying that Hadouken, and sure are you Ken it was the same video where Norm MacDonald and Christopher MacDonald, they're telling you what they're doing.
Speaker 4:I just automatically assume that if somebody online says it, it's 100% true and flaming something.
Speaker 3:Fist is what he says, hadouken is that. Ken is fist that's what they used to call me in high school is flaming fist. I watched this lady. This lady has a YouTube channel on Japanese video games. What they say is she translates it and then she does these really funny videos about it. And even the Tatsumaki Senpukaku when he's kicking it actually means forceful movement of my feet in a tornado motion or something like that.
Speaker 4:So they started announcing their moves a long time ago. Like I repeated oh what is it in one punch? Man Left cross, Consecutive, regular punches.
Speaker 2:Left cross to bottom jaw.
Speaker 3:They do that with titles too. We we hear them as tensaki but it's just, they're saying most like. I watched this really awful police show over there and it's called superwoman police. That's their translation of it in english is superwoman police. Okay, they sound goofy as heck to us because they put their words in a different order. We read everything left or out. They read everything right to left, so it's actually police who is a superwoman to them.
Speaker 4:It's not superwoman. I followed that. It's kind of like the red car thing in Spanish, right. It's car red in Spanish.
Speaker 1:I remember seeing a Spanish version of the magic school bus when I was a kid and it was like el school bus es magico Escuela. Clearly, like el scubus magico Escuela. Clearly, I am fluent in Spanish. You speak as much as I do. If you couldn't tell.
Speaker 2:We are multilingual on this channel.
Speaker 3:We speak English and Spanish. We respect the Spanish people and their hard work ethic.
Speaker 1:But there are some video games where they already have a good storyline. We talked about this one. I remember when Resident Evil came out. That was probably the year 2000,. I think was when that movie came out. Underserved game series to movie and the first one. Genuinely those are probably the first games that I paid attention to the storyline the storyline was really good.
Speaker 4:And the lore is deep. Yeah, very, very good.
Speaker 1:And they could have done such a great job with it, but instead they made the movie, and that could be also part of the director.
Speaker 4:He is just I love Mila Jovovich.
Speaker 2:He wanted his wife to have a part. He made.
Speaker 4:Is that Mila Jovovich? She's good.
Speaker 2:I like her. The Paul ABC, efg Anderson, fifth Element man. She's too old to be any of the characters in Resident Evil. She was back then and she is now. He just wanted to make up a character.
Speaker 3:I would have believed her as Rebecca. I don't care how old she was, I would have believed her as Rebecca Now let's be real.
Speaker 2:Those movies would have been good had they been called anything but Resident Evil. If they'd been called Zombie Nation.
Speaker 1:Zombie Land Killers. I mean, I didn't hate that. I still like going back and watching now. But the first Resident Evil game has. The first two, I think, have a really great storyline. I think the third one kind of crapped the bed for a while, felt way off, yeah. But the first two have a really great storyline.
Speaker 3:But the first one could have been done so well because you could do it as almost like and you could do it on a sho budget, yeah go to a nice house or go to and you've got more, you've got an expanded unit.
Speaker 2:Look at sd perry's.
Speaker 3:Yes, yeah, absolutely she wrote those were out by the time the movie came out, so why not?
Speaker 1:use those as your calvin cove, underworld.
Speaker 2:Those are original stories. Stephanie perry created those stories. Those weren't in the universe. Yeah, she made Caliban Cove and Underworld.
Speaker 1:But you can't hardly find those books at all anymore. I know they're all on audiobook on YouTube.
Speaker 3:Are you serious? All of them. And they're read by fans who actually cut in soundtrack.
Speaker 4:We know how I feel about audiobooks.
Speaker 1:Audiobooks are the only way that I've ever read anything before. Something, johnson Mike.
Speaker 3:Johnson, mike Johnson. Mike Johnson's web.
Speaker 2:He does.
Speaker 3:Umbrella Chronicles. I heard Umbrella Chronicles. He does a part of City of the Dead and he did Caliban Cove. And he did Caliban Cove, he did great on Caliban Cove City of the Dead is my favorite of the books.
Speaker 4:actually, resident Evil 2 is my favorite game of all. Actually, resident Evil 1 is my favorite of the games. Yeah, resident Evil 2. City of the Dead is my favorite book by period. Well, resident Evil 1 and Remake is my favorite the first three.
Speaker 3:I think Resident Evil 2 is my favorite game of all time.
Speaker 2:The remake took its place, but I still think, as concise as the story is. The first remake was better.
Speaker 3:RAT 2 remake is perfect, it's the best remake of perfect video game ever, but I mean if gun to my head, favorite game ever, resident Evil 2, was such a departure from anything else I'd ever seen.
Speaker 2:It was just so good. You're talking about the original when you talk about.
Speaker 4:Chris and Jill are really really likable main characters.
Speaker 3:They're amazing, they are.
Speaker 4:Claire and Leon are the two best.
Speaker 3:But they were every man.
Speaker 1:They were the two best. You know what I think is interesting about the first Resident Evil especially and it could be that I have somewhat of hero worship when I watch stuff sometimes but Chris and Jill in the first game are never really together until the end. But the whole time in my head I was like Chris and Jill are a thing Together. Yeah, it's almost like they had chemistry without being anywhere near each other because they're concerned for each other.
Speaker 2:Stephanie Perry goes into that in the book and it kind of hints it in the game too.
Speaker 3:Yeah, because the stuff's on Jill's desk.
Speaker 2:She lays her head on his shoulder. I mean, if you look at Stephanie Perry's books, at the end of the first one she thinks about Chris. That's the first thing she thinks about. Then when she meets Carlos, she starts. When he saves her life, she thinks this would have been good, but I already have somebody.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3:Interesting George Romero was contracted to write a Resident Evil movie.
Speaker 4:I don't think George remembered Romero as a good character the Resident Evil game started to suck because they stopped focusing on the zombies. No, I like zombies, but Romero is really intent on the zombie character.
Speaker 1:I don't think he's a good storyteller.
Speaker 3:He doesn't create a great character, it's Romero. Now I'm talking about when this was going to be in 1999, 2000, 2001. I think they did a treatment of it.
Speaker 4:There's a documentary about it.
Speaker 3:There's a commercial where Brad Renfro plays it. There's a documentary about it. There's a commercial where Brad Renfro plays Leon. It's a Romero-directed trailer for Resident.
Speaker 2:Evil 2.
Speaker 3:And it is. Is he really dead?
Speaker 2:He's young. Oh yeah, he died a long time ago. That's crazy.
Speaker 1:I think he actually Rest in peace, mr Renfro. He was a great actor. I mean there's no dialogue in it.
Speaker 3:There's no dialogue in it, it just shows zombies breaking through. Then you see the zombies break out. Then you go to a police station. Then you see the moment where Leon and Claire see each other for the first time. They're about to shoot each other. There's no dialogue, but it looks so good, it's like coming trailer such and such. And then it said yeah, I've been contracted to do this, do a two-hour movie, three-hour movie, something like that. And I was so excited and then they just didn't do it.
Speaker 4:It disappeared. It was going to be shot in.
Speaker 3:Japan, shinji Mikami was going to be part of the project instead of crapping on his work.
Speaker 2:It's like Superman Returns with Nicolas Cage, something that never was, Thank goodness though Boo, well and honestly.
Speaker 3:I love Kevin.
Speaker 1:Smith as a person, but my goodness is so much as what I know of Kevin Smith. Now, I would just assume he'd never touch an animal. I am such a huge fan of Kevin Smith, I know you're an apologist I just think he's a cool guy. He destroyed He-Man. I think everything about him is just he's destroyed everything he's ever touched.
Speaker 3:Ridley Scott. I'm a Ridley Scott apologist and I shouldn't be the man has done nothing but take a sledgehammer to his wife.
Speaker 1:Oh, man, I've got a hot take right here. Are you all ready for this? I don't like the movie Gladiator that much.
Speaker 3:I've seen it. People like Gladiator, people love that movie.
Speaker 2:I guarantee we'll get comments on the bottom of this video. It's so boring.
Speaker 1:The first 20 minutes is good, the acting's fine. I don't like the movie. The middle is awful, I don't like the movie.
Speaker 3:The first 20 minutes. I agree, the first 20 minutes.
Speaker 2:I went and made sandwiches and played a game in the middle of that movie. It was so boring. That could be why you didn't like it.
Speaker 4:I was about to say that no, no.
Speaker 1:I wasn't anywhere around that movie when it was playing.
Speaker 4:That's how much I hate it. I left the house and then I drove to town.
Speaker 1:The middle of that movie is terrible. You'd be making a sandwich the whole time.
Speaker 2:I've tried to watch it four times and all four times.
Speaker 3:It's been terrible. It's one of those movies where they get it and they're like okay, we know the history behind it, you know. What would be fun, though, is if we didn't do anything. Let's make it where Comicus would do this and Ridley Scott, go back to your original works. You were so good in the 79 through 80s.
Speaker 1:Well, Ridley Scott did Alien, but James Cameron did Aliens, and Aliens is a better movie than that.
Speaker 4:No, it is not a better movie. They're very different movies.
Speaker 2:Introduced to Space Marines, I agree.
Speaker 3:I think it's better that's like saying Terminator and Terminator 2 are the same movie. Yeah, terminator 2 is better. I'm not disagreeing with you about that. But you don't watch Terminator 2 for a horror movie. Terminator was a horror movie but Terminator 3 was not.
Speaker 4:Terminator 3 was worse than the first aliens was not a horror movie. Everything they've done since then, no aliens was.
Speaker 1:No, Aliens was like an action movie.
Speaker 2:Terminator 3 is the worst movie ever to be set in the future Period.
Speaker 1:That's a tough claim. Have you ever seen Jupiter Ascending? Oh my gosh, that's so funny. We've never discussed this movie one time in our lives? I don't think, but that is the worst movie I don't think I've ever seen. It Is that Channing Tatum? It's got Channing Tatum and Mila Kunis and that kid that sounds like a frog. That played Stephen Hawking. Eddie Redmayne.
Speaker 2:Eddie Redmayne.
Speaker 1:Must be terrible. Oh man, that's so funny. Y'all said that at the same time, Holy crap.
Speaker 3:We have honestly never discussed that movie before in our life. If you think that Jeremy Irons in the Dungeons and Dragons movie oh my gosh.
Speaker 1:Watch Eddie Redmayne in there.
Speaker 4:Eddie Redmay redmane. And eddie redmayne does an operatic performance. You can't you can't outdo jeremy.
Speaker 1:I don't know who told him. It's like hey, eddie, you're doing a really great job here. Jeremy, way to go, give me more of that. Keep it up, j Jeremy.
Speaker 2:Irons didn't choose scenery in that movie, he gobbled it up.
Speaker 3:But you take that scene, turn it up to 11. You all have to.
Speaker 1:That might be a movie we sit and watch and critique the whole time, if we can make it through it. It's pretty hard and I like Shannon Tatum, I like Mila Kunis, I like Eddie Redmayne in most things. Why not make Tim, I'd like?
Speaker 2:to have seen a Gambit movie.
Speaker 1:As good as he did in.
Speaker 2:Deadpool and Wolverine.
Speaker 3:I'd like to have seen that Gambit movie they were doing.
Speaker 1:He was awesome as Gambit.
Speaker 3:He stole the show. They'll make it now with Deadpool and Wolverine.
Speaker 1:I bet they will.
Speaker 3:I thought they put a pin in it If Ryan Reynolds has to pay for it himself.
Speaker 1:They put a pin in it years ago.
Speaker 2:I mean, that was something that was like in the box, yeah, but I mean, I didn't think they were getting it out of the box.
Speaker 3:Speaking of that hot take, Deadpool and Wolverine was an awful movie.
Speaker 1:I disagree. I enjoyed it.
Speaker 3:I could shut my mind off. It wasn't what it was.
Speaker 4:You can't believe what they still haven't put Gambit in Marvel Rivals. It's a.
Speaker 1:Oh, video game, it's an.
Speaker 4:Overwatch type of game. My kids love it. But Gambit would be yeah, somebody at my house likes it too, because they charged a lot of stuff.
Speaker 3:Yeah, playstation Plus charged them like $60 or something like that. Oh my gosh.
Speaker 2:Charged a lot of money to my account.
Speaker 4:I started password protecting. That no.
Speaker 2:I'm taking the card off. Everything in the house.
Speaker 1:That's what I'm doing. I've not played Marvel Arrivals.
Speaker 2:Neither have any of us Switching to you wouldn't know that, looking at my account.
Speaker 1:What I've never played it either.
Speaker 3:He's played the crap out of it. A bunch of people are playing Marvel Arrivals, switching to what our prompt is today.
Speaker 1:Today we are going to be discussing video games, but video games as movies. So we all have video games that we enjoy watching, but, I'm sorry, video game movies we enjoy watching, but we are all gamers. I want to discuss video games that have yet to be made into movies and which ones we think would be really good. Ooh, okay, okay, okay, wait, do tv shows count I wish they did, because I would choose the last of us because I feel like they could do much better with the last of us than they thought.
Speaker 3:The first season was really good, the second season's really terrible.
Speaker 2:There's one of mine down. No, I've still got plenty.
Speaker 4:Yeah, I've still yeah I want to start because I'm I'm gonna start from the geekiest angle all right, let's hear it I'm going full japan and going devil may cry, because I think that would be an easy one great. Turn your brain off and just be an action movie that'd be a well.
Speaker 1:That had a lot of comedic parts yeah, dante's hilarious, you could have it would be very, very CG.
Speaker 4:Who plays Dante?
Speaker 1:Who plays Dante?
Speaker 4:That's a really good question, I would say Fassbender.
Speaker 1:but everybody has a bad Live. Actors. Oh, it has to be live action. Fassbender's too old to play Dante.
Speaker 4:I'm just saying like he's got no. So I'm saying like Devil May Cry 5, dante, you have to be a martial artist too, don't really?
Speaker 2:have to be a martial artist.
Speaker 3:They would need to be, though. Yeah, they could do what they did with Keanu Reeves and man of Tai Chi. Have you seen that? No do what they did with.
Speaker 4:Keanu Reeves and John Wick and turn him into a super soldier. Have you seen his shooting drills? Watch, he's incredible. It's impressive.
Speaker 3:Watch man watch he's incredible, it's impressive watch man of Tai Chi. They use wire work. I don't want to now and it's the worst and Tiger's just just ruined me. He's his choreographer and he's amazing. The fight scene with Keanu Reeves it's the most ridiculous looking fight scene that they've done in the modern and I include Cynthia Rothrock's newest movie where she's on wire.
Speaker 4:Have you seen fight with Tai Chi though?
Speaker 1:I'm kind of in the Rogan camp here with, like most martial arts are really ready to look at, but they're bullshido when you actually the Steven Seagal like keto this little thing he touches his nose and they run at him and then flip themselves no I like jiggle jitsu or what's it called?
Speaker 4:no, have you seen the no touch knockout the guy that does when they do it?
Speaker 1:yeah, they, just those are my favorite that's uh fantastic though dante um oh and which game would you follow of those?
Speaker 4:well, you have to do the first one, first right, I mean okay, so you couldn't be old a kid, that all of them, the kid that played Cato in Hunger Games and he was in Vikings. Yeah, he's in great shape and he's done sword scenes before for Vikings. He was Bjorn. No, yeah, he was Bjorn, and they're all Bjorn, bjorn.
Speaker 3:He's Ragnar's son. Yeah, he was.
Speaker 4:Jedediah, ragnar Lothbrok's son, bjorn, that ends up leading after Ragnar is killed. He might be a Skarsgård. I don't know why I'm thinking that is it Alexander. I don't know that he's in.
Speaker 1:They may not be brothers we're going to have to make a big.
Speaker 4:I think his last name is Skarsgård.
Speaker 1:We're going to make a big compilation clip of Evan saying that people are related. I think, he might be a bald one.
Speaker 4:Look up. What's the name of the movie Hunger Games?
Speaker 1:Kato Hunger Games. Is that spelled with a K or a C K?
Speaker 2:Cast K C.
Speaker 1:No, kato not cast.
Speaker 3:We were publicly educated, was Jack? All three of us have been to college. Which one?
Speaker 4:Ludwig, it was almost Skarsgård. I was really close.
Speaker 1:Okay, so he was in. I want to say that he was in Lone Survivor. Yeah, he's the young seal.
Speaker 4:He's a good actor, yeah he's in a movie about rowing for the olympics. I could see that one rowing in college he's yeah, he could be dante. That's a good, that's a good cast.
Speaker 1:Yeah, okay um, so I'm be honest, I remember playing the devil may cry games, but that was before. I guess I cared about storylines, but I don't remember too much about that. I remember the part at the end. Of course it's weird. It's in pop culture.
Speaker 3:It's a weird story. It's the same plot as Boba Fett is.
Speaker 4:He's a bounty hunter.
Speaker 3:He gets called in to fight demons. No, he's the son of.
Speaker 4:Sparta. That's not true. You, sir, have never played. God of War? No, not son of Sparta. Sparta the demon, he's his son. Is he a bounty hunter or is he not? I mean, he kind of is.
Speaker 3:They call him to fight demons. Do they, or do they not? Yeah, but there's more story there than that.
Speaker 4:He falls in love with Trish, she dies at the end of it.
Speaker 2:He uses his light to bring her back.
Speaker 4:They don't even begin to talk about his derivation until the second part. That's not true. It's not true, sir, and I'm going to.
Speaker 1:I don't remember the first one. I disagree.
Speaker 2:Alexander.
Speaker 1:Ludwig of the.
Speaker 2:Skarsgård Of the Skarsgård family.
Speaker 3:Through intermediaries.
Speaker 1:You've developed a whole other family. Adam what's?
Speaker 2:yours. Well, I have a few, but I'm going to go with another in the properties, the last of us, and say Uncharted, because I like it's been made a movie though it's been made a movie.
Speaker 4:It's been made a movie Tom Holland. It was almost a movie it was almost good.
Speaker 1:Actually, it had everything that it should have, except casting, to be good.
Speaker 2:I really like Nathan Drake though. Great, great character. I think he would be a very good frontman in a movie. Great character.
Speaker 1:Now Evan worships at the altar of Nathan Fillion.
Speaker 3:They made a fan film with him as Drake, but I think Nathan Fillion could actually play Drake. Did you see the fan film that was made?
Speaker 1:Yeah, and they had the guy that played in Tombstone as.
Speaker 3:Ernie Reyes Jr.
Speaker 1:He plays the guy no but also the guy that played in Tombstone, Stephen Lang, as Sully.
Speaker 4:And that was very well cast. Nathan Fillion deserves to be worshipped at the alternate.
Speaker 2:How did I not know that there's a movie? It's terrible.
Speaker 4:Don't watch it Right here. Right here's the movie.
Speaker 3:It's as accurate and good as the Assassin's Creed movie with Michael Fassbender was.
Speaker 4:So this is supposed to be silly. Yeah, Mark Wahlberg is silly. Well good.
Speaker 1:Tom Holland would be a good. Here's the story of this movie. From what I've, he's Peter Parker in it. He can't.
Speaker 3:He has. No, okay, I'll tell good in devil, devil all the time he is.
Speaker 1:That was one of the worst movies I've ever seen devil all the time great acting. Oh, tell me the plot of that movie real quick that's exactly right.
Speaker 4:You have nothing. You have nothing devil, not just some of the times.
Speaker 2:This is why I don't watch movies anymore. Is they disappointed? So?
Speaker 1:the this the reason mark walberg is sully is because mark walberg was contracted originally to be Nathan Drake. Now this is 2012 or around that time In younger days.
Speaker 1:That would have been good so by the time they got around to making this movie they still had him contracted and they talked to him, and so they decided to bring him in as Sully. Now, I don't think this would have been terrible if they would have made it to where Nathan Drake was getting established, which they kind of did but they should have made him younger, and I'm okay with even Mark Wahlberg Mark Wahlberg's in his 50s, I mean, sully would probably be in his 50s.
Speaker 4:They needed to probably give him a little bit of gray in his hair.
Speaker 3:The mustache Can't go without the mustache. You think Mark Wahlberg would have been a good Nathan Drake?
Speaker 4:He would have when he was younger.
Speaker 1:I don't think he has the charm. Did you watch Max Payne?
Speaker 3:Physically well. That's why you think that he could play a video game. Did you watch Four?
Speaker 2:Brothers.
Speaker 3:But that's not Nathan Drake, I'm just saying he can act well.
Speaker 1:Acting's not the issue.
Speaker 3:Did you see the Happening? Though, that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1:I'll raise any you can throw bad movies at anybody but, I'm sure Michael Keaton's one of my favorite actors in the world but he's got some really bad in his background, even though he's great. I can't think of any, but he probably does. Who's that? Michael Keaton, michael Keaton's so good.
Speaker 4:There's the one where he's the McDonald's founder. He's great in it, but it's not a great movie.
Speaker 1:I liked the movie.
Speaker 4:I don't know how accurate it was, but I thought it was a good movie, mcdonald's Brothers.
Speaker 3:One of them comes in and says it'll never be yours and then he goes. You heck, I can just put $2 million in your pocket, but acting like one or two movies makes somebody a bad actor.
Speaker 2:That's wrong, no, mark.
Speaker 3:Wahlberg is a bad actor.
Speaker 2:Look at Playing by Heart. That has an all-star cast.
Speaker 1:And every one of that. People in that have good movies, but that's back when they were trying to do that thing in movies where they wanted to have 500 storylines that linked together.
Speaker 2:You've seen a couple of bad movies, to say somebody's bad.
Speaker 3:Paul Thomas Anderson is where all that started. Yeah, I blame him for that. Until he stops making movies.
Speaker 1:I'm not saying that Mark Wahlberg would have been the best Nathan Drake. I'm saying that that's who he originally was. I think physically he is Physically he is perfect for it.
Speaker 3:I think he's around the same age as Nathan Fillion, and I believe that Nathan Fillion should have been the natural.
Speaker 4:But Nathan Fillion would have been perfect. Can't do the combat scenes. Nathan Fillion would have a hard time with the fist fight scenes. It's not even the fist fight.
Speaker 1:You have to almost do the parkour type stuff because of how. Nathan Drake climbs.
Speaker 2:He's good at that kind of thing. He's good at fishing.
Speaker 1:They could do such a great job with an uncharted. Very good at fishing, because they could make it very much like a modern day Indiana Jones. I didn't know, there was a movie though, so I'm changing.
Speaker 2:It's really bad. Okay, we'll come back to you.
Speaker 3:It would even be fine as a movie where they're handing the reins off. I would be okay with that if Nathan Drake was the Sully character. You just don't make an Uncharted movie Call it something else. Yeah, make it a Passing of the Tornado movie.
Speaker 4:That's my feeling about the Dark Knight. I think it should have been called Crazy Clown Guy.
Speaker 3:They're doing an Indiana Jones reboot with Pedro Pascal.
Speaker 4:I don't like any of it. What is wrong with everybody?
Speaker 2:right now. Yes, Batman movies.
Speaker 4:What's your switch to?
Speaker 1:He doesn't have one, Andrew. What do you got? He's a.
Speaker 4:Batman movie?
Speaker 2:What Christian Bale's Batman movies? Oh, he's okay, he was terrible.
Speaker 1:Oh, he was a bad Batman. Very good. Well, physically he was a good Batman. Just how he sounded was bad and Heath.
Speaker 3:Ledger was just a crazy clown guy. I was awesome. In that I just agree with you all. He would have been better as Two-Face than he was, I think he did extremely well.
Speaker 2:That is a.
Speaker 1:Joker that you could believe would beat Robin to death with a crowbar.
Speaker 3:Green Goblin was a Joker that you could believe in any circumstance.
Speaker 1:You can't say that because Willem Dafoe is the Joker.
Speaker 3:He was born to be that?
Speaker 1:What's your game?
Speaker 3:Andrewrew to be a movie I had I really had one and it was a really good one, and it's been asked for a billion times. And then it just jumped out of my head fighting force that would be a fun one, honestly, if you put the right people together to get tony john now see I three other people who can do what they're doing.
Speaker 1:I would. I would agree with that in the sense that I love the Street Fighter movie and I love the old Mortal Kombat movies. I do too. They're so bad but so much fun Mortal.
Speaker 3:Kombat Legacy was really good. Mortal.
Speaker 1:Kombat Legacy was good, though just because it was good.
Speaker 3:I was never seeing it.
Speaker 4:Yes, I gave it back, your Mortal, your Mortal Kombat legacy. No, you never did, for sure, I've never seen that third movie and this is why we have this podcast you bought it for me for my birthday then I might have it at my house and he borrowed it from me.
Speaker 1:The day I got it I was like okay this is the whole reason we put this podcast together to get Adam's movie back now mine is.
Speaker 3:Mine is again. It's been. It's been requested time after time after time. Now I don't have any faith on their ability to do it, but I would love to see Shadows of the Empire made into a movie.
Speaker 2:It was one of the funnest Star Wars games.
Speaker 4:The only problem about it if?
Speaker 3:you have that Star Wars property with it, Andor has been the only good thing Star Wars. I love you, dave Filoni, I love you, do you?
Speaker 4:Because I feel like he was the start of the downfall. Do you, do you? Dave Filoni is as bad as.
Speaker 2:Kathleen Kennedy. They should all be fired. I would never say that out loud.
Speaker 4:I did love Rebels. Rebels was great. I mean Goddard, john Fawcett, john Fawcett. I love Fawcett Goddard.
Speaker 3:Even him. I love y'all to death. The movies and series y'all are making are silly, so bad series you're making are silly.
Speaker 4:They're not Star Wars silly. It's not for the Star Wars audience.
Speaker 2:Is that Dave?
Speaker 4:Filoni doing that.
Speaker 2:I know it was.
Speaker 3:Really, he's obsessed with Ahsoka.
Speaker 4:She's not a fun character. I like Ahsoka though she was. I loved her in Legendary Snips was fun when she was playing off of.
Speaker 3:Anakin.
Speaker 1:What was that you said?
Speaker 4:She's now in the. Anything about Snips is what Anakin calls her in the Clone Wars. If they want to, make another.
Speaker 3:Ahsoka show when she's a teenager. That'll be great.
Speaker 1:I don't hate them.
Speaker 3:They need to get rid of the Ahsoka show they have. They have murdered.
Speaker 4:Grand Admiral Thrawn.
Speaker 2:Dave Filoni's, one of the ones that's killed.
Speaker 4:Star Wars I know, I know, and all they had to do was do the Zahn trilogy.
Speaker 1:He's one of the main people that have killed that series, and this is where I go silent everyone, because I do not like stars kathleen kennedy and dave filoni and maybe even john favreau here's how much I don't like star wars. I thought dave filoni was somebody in star wars like a character yes, I don't, he was filoni.
Speaker 4:Sounds like it could possibly be an episode who would you cast as the main character?
Speaker 2:That would be. What's his name. What was his name?
Speaker 1:Larry.
Speaker 2:No.
Speaker 1:Skarsgård.
Speaker 2:I think he's a Skarsgård.
Speaker 4:Probably, they usually are. It's a big-ass family. He's a Coppola.
Speaker 1:They multiply on that.
Speaker 3:Related to the Coppolas somehow I don't know, because I would have had to do this quite some time ago because I would want Mark Hamill as Luke.
Speaker 4:Because he talks to Luke.
Speaker 2:It can't be Disney Star Wars either, because Disney ruined it. Well, but you could do.
Speaker 4:Sebastian Stan as Luke and he is really a good casting, as Luke Carrie Fisher would be really hard to replace.
Speaker 3:She was incredible as Leia. Again, I don't like the show Ahsoka, but the guy who plays? The adult, the adult Shoot. He was the Jedi in.
Speaker 1:He was the Jedi in.
Speaker 3:Wasn't it called Legends? Was it called Legends? I don't know About the group, the team. I'm really showing my Star.
Speaker 4:Wars credentials, right here, the one that Ezra, the guy who plays the adult.
Speaker 3:Ezra. I would like to see him as Dash Rendar, or even Kyle Katarn.
Speaker 4:I can't either Dash Rendar. I would dig into both of them.
Speaker 1:Dash Rendar, I'm even that sounds like a porn name. For sure, yeah, he's an Indian actor.
Speaker 4:Unpopular opinion, probably. I think Rebels is the best Star Wars story of any that have been put on film. Kanan's my favorite Jedi. The story is complete.
Speaker 2:That either has been on film. It has a beginning, middle and end.
Speaker 4:Yeah, it's not as good as the Thrawn trilogy that Timothy Zahn wrote the original one, not the new Thrawn trilogy, the original Thrawn trilogy with Talon Card in it. Is there a new one?
Speaker 3:Uh-huh, it's what they're doing on Ahsoka, and it is awful.
Speaker 4:Yeah, he's re-written it.
Speaker 2:No, no, no, that's not the Thrawn trilogy, it's Timothy again. He's writing it again. Well, but it's a different story.
Speaker 4:But but the original throne trail, okay, incredible we need to get scars guards and they're cocaine. Am I right? Scars guards back on cocaine, because they can't write nothing anymore. Oh yeah, I guess that was the king family that we were talking about. There is like this, the stephen king lineage, all of his.
Speaker 1:So I'm gonna cheat a little bit with mine and I'm going to venture away from Star Wars as best I can, because I have nothing to say to you all with this. I'm going to cheat a little bit, because they just recently made a Super Mario Brothers movie, which I think was pretty good. I enjoyed it I enjoyed it a lot and I think they're sneaking, or this might be something they're thinking about, but I am a huge fan of the Luigi's Mansion series. Yes and I think if they did a really good Luigi's.
Speaker 3:Mansion John Turturro as Luigi you know. Oddly enough, I agree with you about that?
Speaker 4:He would be good. Sorry, that just popped in my head, I think.
Speaker 1:Charlie Day was good with the voice. I like Charlie.
Speaker 4:Day, I think he's very funny.
Speaker 3:I don't know who he is, but I think if they did it animated like they did. I think it could be. It's always Sonny and Phil. Yeah, it's always Sonny and Phil.
Speaker 1:He's one of the founders. He's one of the drinks. He's very funny.
Speaker 4:I like him, he was good as.
Speaker 1:Luigi, yeah, but if they made that and kind of did it in the same style as what they did the Mario Brothers movie, I think it would be done really well.
Speaker 3:And those are really fun games.
Speaker 4:Yeah, but who did the little professor's voice though.
Speaker 3:You could cheat on that and do like the Lego movies first and just make him on his lobbing. I'd make him like.
Speaker 1:Well, that's kind of how he is in the game, that is what he does in the game, but I think that would be done really well.
Speaker 3:And I own them all. I think that would be done really well, do you?
Speaker 4:remember that when the Lego games first came out, that's when Lego games were so good. When they actually started doing the storylines was kind of crap. I didn't like the voice.
Speaker 1:The jokes landed better then, they kind of spoke a little bit like Sims. I think that would be done really well. You could have king boo uh, who's the main villain, and but, but I played all three, would you give?
Speaker 4:king boo a voice, or would he just be?
Speaker 1:uh, uh, you know, I don't know, I think, I think you'd kind of have to give king boo and the professor both of them.
Speaker 1:They gave donkey kong a voice I think that, given the donkey kong I think, given donkey kong was was the worst thing they did in the movie it's because it was a show type of thing I think, I think that I don't like and I actually I know that some people here aren't, but I'm actually a jack black fan I don't like that they gave bowser his that personality in the movie. I think he shouldn't have been Jack Black.
Speaker 4:He should have been Bowser Jr, who's the first one you've heard.
Speaker 1:Jack Black could have been Bowser Jr better.
Speaker 4:What's his name? Not Ludwig?
Speaker 1:No, bowser Jr is Bowser Jr.
Speaker 4:Oh, okay, so he doesn't have a first name, he's just Bowser Bowser Jr.
Speaker 3:Ludwig Von Koopa, iggy Bowser, bowser, the Koopas, and there's Ludwig Von Koopa.
Speaker 4:Von Koopa. Okay, Iggy.
Speaker 1:Morton and the girl Wendy.
Speaker 4:Wendy.
Speaker 1:Yeah, which would be kind of fun to incorporate too. Gosh, but in the Luigi's Mansion thing 40 years of gaming folks, that's right.
Speaker 3:Just summing it up like that.
Speaker 1:You're welcome. Well, at the third Luigi's Mansion you had Gooigi as well, and that would be really fun to do.
Speaker 4:Oh, that would be a great speech Halfway through the movie. Yeah, that would be really fun.
Speaker 1:But if you've not played that game, have you played that game?
Speaker 3:Oh, it's so good, oh my gosh.
Speaker 1:It's stupid fun. It's like if you designed the greatest.
Speaker 2:Ghostbusters Like Luigi's Mansion yes. Like on Nintendo, luigi's Mansion yes.
Speaker 3:Like on Nintendo. Yeah, like Ghostbusters, not like.
Speaker 1:Mario is Missing, not Mario is Missing. Do you remember that game?
Speaker 4:Yeah, that's what I was thinking, no.
Speaker 1:Luigi's.
Speaker 3:Mansion. It's like you're playing as a Ghostbuster, it's like a vacuum cleaner and it is On what Is this like?
Speaker 2:in the past On the Switch.
Speaker 3:GameCube the Switch and it's co-op.
Speaker 1:You can play as Luigi and Gooigi. It's like the best Ghostbusters game you've ever played.
Speaker 3:Oh, it's worth getting. I've got to let you borrow it. It's really what they should have made Ghostbusters 3. I'll borrow it and I'll play it.
Speaker 1:I love it. I think it's fantastic.
Speaker 2:Adam, let's move on to yours. I've got all these games and I love them. It was a movie and they're horror Cause I'm big horror fan. I I'm not easily scared, so I like something that can scare me. It's why Hill house is has a place in my heart, but Super massive games Anything by them. But I would like to see the oh shoot. What are they called?
Speaker 3:Dark Pictures. Dark Pictures they basically are movies.
Speaker 1:Oh, they're so good, are they good? They are good, so good. They're basically movies. They're the same people who did the Quarry and Until Dawn.
Speaker 4:Great Until, dawn's Until.
Speaker 3:Dawn was their first one At first, and Peter Stormare was genius in it.
Speaker 2:But these are better than those.
Speaker 1:That kid is in the story too. First time I ever saw the kid that we were talking about.
Speaker 4:This is an anthology. Victor.
Speaker 2:Pascal, but this is an anthology. It's four different. Stories, stories from four different times, like there's a witch child.
Speaker 4:Okay, yeah, it's like a series of stories. The Little Hope Devil Inside Me. Man of Manon.
Speaker 2:I think, Medan there's an HH Holmes. I've heard of that one.
Speaker 3:That HH Holmes would be really cool, is it?
Speaker 4:supposed to be historically accurate.
Speaker 3:Stuff like that, I think would be really cool. Is it supposed to be?
Speaker 2:historically accurate or did they play it into the? Because HH Humphrey's stuff like that, I think would be really cool. That is so fun, yeah, and you could do so much with them. Which one would you pick?
Speaker 4:to make the movie out of, or would you want it as like a?
Speaker 2:I would want it in an anthology.
Speaker 1:Like what really just did not know how to play it. I enjoyed him, shutting off my mind. I enjoyed him, you get four movies.
Speaker 4:You really I don't love him.
Speaker 2:Four distinct movies and just call it the Dark Pictures Anthology.
Speaker 4:Sure Do like the old monster movies, and you know four two-hour movies, One of them wasn't so bad.
Speaker 3:It's the but you would have to use the same actors like they do in those games. But I hated Pickman's model. I thought that was absolutely.
Speaker 1:It wasn't my thing, I had fun with it. I shut off my mind.
Speaker 2:Well, what they do in those games is it's the same actors, with a couple of exceptions.
Speaker 4:They bring some new, so Flanagan-esque Some of them, right.
Speaker 2:But you would have to do that just to keep it in the dark pieces, just to keep it super massive, type of thing.
Speaker 3:But I think it would be so much fun With Will Poulter in it. It's really good. Yeah, that's Little Hope.
Speaker 4:Sorry, the other thing that I've seen where they cast the same actors. Have you seen Documentary? Now Speaking of Jack.
Speaker 3:Black. He was in an episode. I hate to give them any credit but that is really funny, bill Hader I don't like the other guy at all, or?
Speaker 4:anything else, but he's good in that.
Speaker 2:I'm a Bill Hader fan.
Speaker 4:Jack Black's in episode three and he does a really good job.
Speaker 3:Should we make a Bill Hader fan club and call ourselves the haters.
Speaker 1:I'm not that big of a fan. That's a little meta, isn't it? I just like the thought of doing it.
Speaker 2:I don't know if I'm a enough fan to make a we're all haters.
Speaker 3:We should make a lemonade.
Speaker 2:I'm a hater aid. I mean, I'm a hater that's bad don't need no hateration, real bad.
Speaker 4:I'm a father just tell my dad, jokes are on point, that's right.
Speaker 1:I almost said so for this one. I almost said Metal Gear Solid, just because I like. I like the first. It's genuinely I like one game in that entire series.
Speaker 3:I believe that that's one game that can't be made into a game I like.
Speaker 1:Snake Eater the gameplay, but let me tell you and another hot take that I'm probably going to get all sorts of evil evil comments about. I think Hideo Kojima is tremendously overrated.
Speaker 2:Way.
Speaker 1:Hugely Way If somebody can tell me the storyline of death, stranding or any of the metal gear, solid games, people connecting with each other it's the dumbest crap ever it's about a mailman is what that game's about oh my gosh, some of the worst stuff ever. And let me tell you, phantom pain was a nightmare to try to get through.
Speaker 2:Love the gameplay. It was so bad. Gameplay is always good.
Speaker 3:I mean he knows how to make a game. Well, everybody, okay, everybody talks about if there is a good Metal Gear. It was the it was the second it was the second one because it talked about the dangers of internet, and it was the third one for it was a great it for I can't wait to tell it was the best.
Speaker 3:I believe that Metal Gear 3, metal Gear Solid 3, was the best James Bond movie we're ever going to get. It was silly, it was over the top, it was jocular. The villain even says now, before I kill you, I'm going to tell you my plan. It steered into every affectation we've ever heard about this stuff and it's brilliantly done. David Hayter was on point. You could tell everybody loved the project. Then Hideo Kojima makes four. He wanted his father to tell him that he was proud of him, so he makes a 30-hour game to do it?
Speaker 4:Isn't there a 73-minute cutscene?
Speaker 1:Evan the last part of Death Stranding is three hours long. It's a cinema. It's three hours long and he didn't want to make it.
Speaker 3:He made it because people were actually sending him death threats. What happened to our favorite character? He takes the goofy crew from 3 and makes them the Illuminati for crying out loud, Just to please fans.
Speaker 1:I respect him for wanting to please the fans but, man, your artistry needs to come first and I am a silent hill fan, but I am so happy that silent again gonna get some hate comments from this. I'm so happy that that didn't get made, because it would have been crap.
Speaker 3:It would have been silent hill 2 remake is being made.
Speaker 2:No, no, silent hill 2 remake is out no, the silent hill 2 remake movie is being.
Speaker 3:I'm talking about I'm not talking about the movie, I'm talking about silent hills, the game, the one that but Hill 2 remake movie is being made.
Speaker 1:I'm not talking about the movie. I'm talking about Silent.
Speaker 4:Hills the game and it's the same guy who did the first one.
Speaker 1:The one that Guillermo del Toro. The 2 remake was pretty good. I own it. The 2 remake was good. The 2 remake's fantastic, I think a lot of girls does Marie, but she's.
Speaker 3:It was good. I think it's fun.
Speaker 2:I thought it was good, especially if you're a fan of horror. So them games scare me and I'm hard to scare. I'm, on this level, hard to scare.
Speaker 3:The Quarry has an intro. If you can play through the intro to the Quarry and put it down, you are the winner.
Speaker 1:I still haven't played through the Quarry yet, so that might be something that would be kind of fun, because those games can be multiplayer, as in the sense that you can I know, but you can so, however many characters there are, you can assign a character to somebody and every time it's that character's time to make a decision.
Speaker 2:You can play it, yeah.
Speaker 1:So that would be kind of fun for us to do.
Speaker 2:That would be cool. I would.
Speaker 4:And.
Speaker 2:I already own it. I can bring my PlayStation home.
Speaker 4:You know the we can do it. The me playing horror games doesn't always. Zachary tried to watch me play Resident Evil 2 when it first came out and when Mr X starts chasing you.
Speaker 1:I go catatonic. There's a safe room where Mr X can't come in and Evan just wouldn't leave that room anymore.
Speaker 4:Yeah, I just stayed there for a little while. I don't know what to do with my hands anymore when stuff gets, so I play a game called so that would be so much fun to do this thing.
Speaker 1:I play a game called Phasmophobia that you all need to play.
Speaker 4:I stay in the truck One of the coolest games ever.
Speaker 3:Me and my son stay in the truck.
Speaker 2:That one Visage and Demonology Layers of Fear is good.
Speaker 3:Layers of Fear started out really good.
Speaker 4:Phasmophobia would be a fun game.
Speaker 3:It could be. It could be like.
Speaker 2:Ghost, ghost hunters or something like that, um ludo I think would be cabin, one that you had me oh, the cabin factory.
Speaker 3:Factory that was and well, it's not like horror horror, like it's not going to really jump out and scare you. There's one called soma, if you believe in psychological and that was.
Speaker 1:Is that one underwater or something sci-fi?
Speaker 3:it's very it's very sci-fi. You probably wouldn't like it. You would love it. It's a game, terrible. You play this character who is in a car crash and it's destroyed your ability to have much of a memory. So they're doing this guy's doing this new thing where he actually implants something in your head and it'll help your memory. It helps all this and he calls you to his office and the first part of it is you drive to his office and you sit down and you start talking to him and then the next thing you wake up and you're in this rundown terrible thing.
Speaker 1:I'm good.
Speaker 3:Sorry everybody, this rundown terrible thing, and it stinks, everything's rusted, there's nobody around and you turns out you're underwater. You've been underwater for a decade, maybe more, and the world has been absolutely annihilated by a meteor strike. And you find little. You just find little tidbits that tell you this, like one of them is. And there you meet and you come across all these people who are machines, but they swear they're human. In fact, when you start talking to them about, well, you're just a robot. How are you? What are you talking about?
Speaker 3:They're all very conscious, they're all there they all have emotions.
Speaker 4:Zachary would hate that. That's right up my alley. I don't mind horror stuff.
Speaker 3:It's a you really do. It's the only game or movie that I've actually sat down and played.
Speaker 2:It's from the people of Amnesia. Have you ever played Amnesia? It was made by a person in Amnesia and it's so good.
Speaker 3:And at the end of it you really do start. I've never had anything, even like Blade Runner and all that Everybody says. Well, it really made me think of what is a human, what is not a human. That SOMA really made me sit down and actually address. How far would robots have to come before we consider them people? It was like the Star Trek episode the one where they're putting data on trial.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I liked it. And they try to kind of roughly put horror elements in there. These little creatures Not really scary. I can't tell you too much about the game because I would love you to play it. I think you would really like it. I have it. Like they discover this material. It's kind of like in Bioshock. They discover this material at the bottom. That seems to be almost an intelligent material. If you put it with machines, you tell the machine it will subsidize what the machine's doing. The machines start to grab onto people who are dying and the machine only knows that they're supposed to preserve human life. So there's one woman you meet and she's just hooked up to this machine and the machine's keeping her alive and she is in absolute hell and she tells you you know I'd really like not to be like this, but you know it's the only way I know to be. Uh, and there you have to make these choices.
Speaker 4:Wow, and it, it dread I'm gonna have to look into it. I don't think you would like it.
Speaker 3:I don't think you would like it, but I believe you would.
Speaker 1:I just thought about this, and the correct answer to this question of what video game would make the best movie is Portal. I don't know if anybody's going to play that, but that game is incredible.
Speaker 3:That'd be a fun movie. So much fun. One of the most inventive and fun bad guys and you could play with all this.
Speaker 4:Oh yeah, gladys, everybody's so incredibly glad I stuck, if you all haven't played the dark pictures yeah, I have to play that you should come to the house.
Speaker 1:You won't be disappointed. We'll have to.
Speaker 3:We'll have to play through those because I think you would be funny little gameplay?
Speaker 4:yeah, I have. I have no foundation in them every game.
Speaker 2:It's every place, just like heavy rain except less ridiculous. Yeah, less ridiculous. I say much less ridiculous. I was about to say much less ridiculous.
Speaker 3:No diaper change, but was it?
Speaker 4:real rain or was it chubby rain, chubby rain?
Speaker 1:All right, guys, we are approaching the end of our hour for the Brothers BS this week. I hope everybody enjoyed.

We're going to mess up, we're going to have dogs barking in the background and we're going to have to have pauses due to technical issues, all sorts of stuff, and we do talk with our hands, so we're going to do stuff like this a lot. So we hope you all stick with us through the growing pains.
