Episode 70: Explicit "DOOM": Ta2squid X Trash Panda (featuring more "Bros" than a wrestling promo).

Explicit DOOM: Ta2Squid X Trash Panda

May 31, 2022
Come for a chat about Karl Urban and The Rock's 2005 video game movie adaptation "Doom". Stick around for Cool Movies Darth's not safe for work conversation about wrestling and podcast merchandising featuring Andras from Ta2squid Podcast and Kollin (and his kids) from the Trash Panda Podcast.

Allow me to get out of third-person. Happy Prof. Shurtleff of Illinois Central College? I (CM Darth) will try not to make so much light of violent death in this summation. This is my declaration of changing perspective.

Since this is an episode featuring one half of the Trash Panda Podcast, expect a lot of attempts at comedy from everyone involved. I bring up the comedic elements because this podcast ended up being a comedy of errors. It was the "Wheel of Horror" podcast that expressed interest in doing a podcast about the first R-Rated Dwayne Johnson movie. Andras and Kollin wanted to join in, and the recording was scheduled.

Of course, "Wheel of Horror" is one of the best movie podcasts that I had recently listened to. And to maintain this stature, they needed to keep up on the new releases. Thus, "Top Gun: Maverick's" debut had to understandably take precedence on May 26. At least this allowed the three of us to compare and contrast Tom Cruise's franchise to the influential series (at least to Brian Griffin) of "Iron Eagle".

I should say, Andras and I got to educate Kollin about 80's fighter pilot movies. Did we do the same with "Doom" is the more pressing issue.

Andras is based out of Long Island and was suppose to be a guest for this podcast last year, but I failed to remember how time zones work. His shows offers great character studies from other podcasters and always offers the listener something interesting.

If I messed that up, let his description better serve you.

I chat about all different topics some that are subtle,others that are crazy and that probably make no sense. Main topics:

Halloween 🎃
Horror movies
Camping
Wrestling
Heavy metal music or music in general

At one point during the show, Andras suggested that I needed to see more movies. Of course, I had the excuse of the premise of my podcast as a reason for not seeing Tom Cruise's "The Mummy" (as if I needed one). Trash Panda Kollin does not have that excuse, but being goofy for the sake of goofiness surely takes up a lot of time. Kids kind of make being a cinephile less of a priority.

As the immediate summary stated, we bond over professional wrestling and trying to play Pictionary with Kollin's boys. I am not overly involved with a lot of the shop talk, but anyone who wants to monetize their podcast, Andras and Kollin have the leads for you. What I bring to this episode is video game movie knowledge to the peripherals. Perhaps "Doom" may not gotten the attention intended, but hopefully the respect for "Street Fighter", "Super Mario Bros.", "Mortal Kombat", and "Pokemon: Detective Pikachu" was thoroughly expressed.

Follow me on Twitter @catbusruss. If you want to be on the show, contact me on Twitter or send an email to russthebus07@gmail.com. All we need is a theme, movie, director, or actor and a focus on sub 100-minute material. As long as the credits start before the 1:39:59 mark on the runtime bar, the movie qualifies.

Deserves a Second Chance

Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016).

I find the DC movies, or at least Zack Snyder, was trying to bring comic books to the big screen as opposed to adapting comic books for the big screen. If you read, (or watch the excellent animated adaptation of) "The Dark Knight Returns", it is a very slow build to the battle between the Bat and Supe. This is regarded as one of the best threads in comics.

As a guy who fell in love with wrestling in the 1980's, the very methodical showdown is what I loved. It's a love letter to comic book fans who read and note every detail and want to try figuring out the plot before the character do. Come at the flick this way, and I think you will get something out of it.

Tropic Thunder (2008)

This is a feature that dares you to be offended. When director Ben Stiller is that forthcoming like Robert Downey Sr. was with 1969's "Putney Swope", an audience saying that something is in poor taste, hence not funny, means they are afraid to make a mockery of a concept.

My own experience with junkies bankrupting me allows me to thoroughly enjoy Jack Black's making addiction seem ridiculous. Robert Downey Jr. nails his taboo performance and I would say helps the call for actors from a demographic to be the first people called on for the roles representing them. As for the "Forest Gump" knock off jokes, they serve as a way to ridicule us for what we accepted (and encouraged) as fine a decade prior. The narrative that controls the pace in the second act can drag, but the content that is delivered cannot be cut.
