0:00 Have you guys seen who Christopher Nolan casted for his new Odyssey movie? >> Yeah. Why? What are you gonna say? What are you gonna say? >> Horrendous. >> What? >> So, Helen Troy is supposed to be like the hottest chick ever in that area >> and they casted a pretty mid person. >> Mid? >> Pretty mid, dude. >> Hey, low key. Hot take. Hot take. Hot take. I know the world's saying what they're saying. I think she's kind of fire. >> She's good, bro. >> No, but you got to force it in your brain, though. And there's she's no Tyra Banks. >> Honestly, in in in Black Panther, she was >> No, but it's the whole persona though. Troy. >> Okay. I The only argument that is >> the whole nation's going to war for her. >> The only the only potential thing is that when like uh you know, Greek people
0:50 are like, "Wait, this is weird because it's then I'm like, "Okay, well >> that's >> so you're for her to be Helen." >> No, the thing is she's no Halib Berry. Can I just hook it up a little for the boys? >> Yeah, I think that would have been a little better. >> Way better. >> Immediate 10x on return. >> Who's got better acting chops? >> Immediate 10x on return, dude. >> Over what's her name? Lepita. >> I don't care if I mute this ████ >> Because I would say like depending on the role, she might her vibe on screen might be like >> a lot better. She got aura. Zoe. That's what I mean. She got aura too ████ thing. >> Zoe Krabs is completely different. Aura like Zoe Krabs I want to take that jawline home and figure out something. >> She looks Egyptian too of Troy. What do you mean by that? >> I understand. I understand. But she looks Egyptian Greek. Like
1:40 >> Okay. >> I don't give a >> No, I'm talking about her. >> She does. She looks Egyptian Greek. That's a good >> Yeah. Duh. Because the Helena Troy, they're not African, >> right? >> So that's where I'm just like, well, but if they're going to play that, right? I mean, Halle Berry's kind of older now, but I'm saying like there's there's equivalent >> her name up. They're like, >> no, this is just my dream cast. >> Oh, I say this is my personal. >> But wouldn't be this like wouldn't this be like getting mad at like remember when Denzel Washington just played McBTH? >> Yeah, I was pissed. >> Yeah, no one watched it. >> Boy, I didn't watch. >> You pull up the rest of the cast. There's a lot of other f██████, too. >> Yeah. >> What about The Rock? >> He's in this Helen of Troy. >> He's definitely not in >> I'd go to war for him, dude. >> No, he goes, "That would have been a better Helen."
2:30 >> Yeah. >> I think he would have just been the horse. Hell funny, dude. >> Cuz uh Helen of Troy, they waged a war for her, right? That's how ████ scorching hot she needs to be. >> Who Who do you Who would you imagine as a better placeholder? >> I don't know. Lupita is in it, though, for sure. The problem, >> she's not in it. >> The problem is they already did that version where they had Brad as Achilles, which made the world's most sense, and then they had and then they had that one chick who was who was hot as ████ She was >> Elliot Paige, I believe, is playing Achilles. >> Yeah. What the ████ is that? >> So that's Brad Pit. That's supposed to be Brad Pitt. >> That's a little bit whack. Yeah. >> Wait, why did they just have Zenia? She's hot. >> You think Zenai's hot? >> Well, hotter than the choice now. >> For sure. For sure. Hot. He could be Helena Troy. >> Boy, I'm not saying dies now. Huh? >> And Achilles, too. And halfway in there.
3:21 >> Oh, they got Punisher. >> Annne Hathaway is the mother, the wife, the wife. >> They They got a dope cast, huh? >> It's an amazing cast. Isn't Isn't Achilles like a demigod or whatever? How you have ████ Elliot Paige? You >> pretty weird cuz he's supposed to be like the guy, right? >> He's a muskly dude. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. Elliot Paige look more like a Hermes. >> They got an Asian guy in there. I mean, they have Matt Damon right there, but they choose ████ Elliot to be >> Matt Damon is Odysius. Oh, >> he's the lead. >> Oh, >> I'm surprised Tom Holland didn't get it. >> I couldn't see him being Odysius. >> I mean, I'm I'm very >> No hate for the Matt Damon cast at all. >> Wait, who's >> This is like us getting mad at Will you Lee for being in the movie? Because why is there an Asian guy in the Odyssey? >> I asked that. >> Well, I didn't even notice that. >> What the ████ is he doing there? I thought he could he could he could fit the story line. Okay. What about
4:12 >> John Leguisamo? What is he? Who's he playing? >> I'll tell you. >> Look, all I'm saying is people people getting upset about the casting. >> It's like you're only getting upset because this is a really really bigname movie. The only reason why it's a big name movie is because of the director behind it. So, why don't we just trust the guy? >> That's my thing. >> And then hate it if it sucks. >> Doesn't Christopher Nolan get some goodwill? Because, you know, like, all right, >> that's what I think. Like with the with the casting, you're like, "All right, this might be a little weird, but Chris Nolan, like he delivers." >> Oh, this is Chris Nolan movie. >> Yeah, >> bro. It's going to ████ hit. >> So, he absolutely delivers all the ████ time. That's why I'm extra pissed cuz I'm like, how do you have a perfect record and you're already ████ this up? >> Well, perfect record is ████ is actually enough cuz Tenant sucks. Tenant actually sucks. >> I thought Tenant was pretty good. >> I thought >> I think Tenant sucks. >> I think Tenant sucks for a lot of people and I understand.
5:02 >> I really think Tenant sucks. >> The lead for Tenant sucked ass. You don't like John D. I thought he was the worst actor in the whole movie. >> Really? >> And the whole movie. I thought the movie itself, the concept was dope, but I didn't think he delivered. >> I thought he did fine, but the movie sucked. >> I thought the opposite. >> I think it was I think Christopher Nolan is at his best cuz I think he's like a ████ he's like out there. And I think his brother Jonathan is like, "Hey, hey, it's a good idea, but like maybe we chill out a little bit." >> And I think all of his movies that he's done that are like unnaturally amazing is usually with Jonathan. >> Yeah. They fight together. >> So this one wasn't >> off on his own and he does he does things. >> Yeah. And then and he does like tenant and Oenheimer when he's by >> his brother on this one. >> They're deeper. >> You know what I'm saying? So I think when he's a little bit more grounded to a cinematic reality is good though. >> Sure. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. It won awards fine. >> Not when Barbie came out. >> I watch it again in your life.
5:53 >> Yeah. Replayability is a big one. >> Mistake is it came out during Barbie. >> Yeah. >> Maybe certain scenes I would watch again. >> It was just Christopher Nolan I think he wrote it >> like like when Einstein came out. >> No. when she was bam bam, you know, >> the thing that's getting >> the thing that's getting controversy about this version of the Odyssey 2 is that it's an adapted version like done for modern audiences. >> Yeah. >> That that Norland did. And that's probably what's disappointing. >> It's not It's not because everyone's black. >> Well, they got a pretty mixed bag though. >> Hyper sensitive with that racial ████ Like when I was >> I already don't like that. Imagine they remake Mulan and there's like seven black dudes in there and you're like, "What the hell?" Okay. on like Eddie Murphy. Eddie Murphy >> Eddie Murphy's one. >> You should just call it fan fool. Yeah. I'm like what the hell is this? >> Is that what you want to see? You want
6:43 to see Mulan as a Indian girl? It's hard because when we limit the artist, the creator that we're all revering and going, "No, if you're going to make art, it has to be still to these rules, though. >> But we ████ love everything he does." When he breaks the rules, I just think it's really contradictory. >> We always do. We go, "We love R. Kelly, but don't don't touch kids. That's I'd be awesome. >> Don't pee on kids. >> Hey, >> don't pee on kids. >> You know what though? >> To me, >> the same. I just had to say something. >> The the latest Gladiator, >> Anthony, >> I just had to say something. >> Clap back, Anthony. >> But to me, the latest Gladiator was kind of historically accurate, even though they swapped out with a black dude. >> The latest Gladiator also sucked. >> I know, but I'm just saying like I didn't I didn't hate it cuz it was a black dude in it. because it was like historically accurate. >> I hated it because it was a black dude
7:33 in >> Yeah, I know you did. >> Yeah, >> Denzel Washington. >> Maybe maybe that's the recurring thing. Denzel just gets a pass. >> Elliot Paige in this movie. >> He looked like Smeaggel. >> People are hating on >> that look like Golem and ████ My precious. >> That doesn't even look like Elliot Page. >> I mean, I'm down to watch it still cuz I love Christopher Nolan, but I'm already going in there with a >> I think I just don't like gladiator movies in general. >> You don't? >> I don't. What about Gladiator the first one? >> Only movie I like genu genuinely of the whole genre. I don't like like big war gladiator movies. I think >> like those epic sagas. I love epic sagas. You didn't like Braveheart. >> It's so long. >> But there's a lot of fighting. >> I know, but it's so long. I like a couple of parts of it, but it's so goddamn >> Troy or No. >> No. I ████ hate >> All right. How about this? Did you watch >> Did you watch Your Highness?
8:24 >> The ████ I know. I know that one, but no. Did you like Alexander? >> No. >> There was titties, though. Oh, those titties. >> There was also a hell of dick in that, too. >> I got ████ unbalanced with titties more. >> That's what it is, bro. >> Oh, yeah. >> Well, I was blind to the dick, so that makes me not gay cuz all I remember is the titties. >> I'm going into this movie with very low expectations. I think that I think that's the biggest problem when like we we get so hyperfocused on like this like star power before like the product the art comes out. Anybody can have a ████ bad day. >> But aren't you a fanboy though? >> I'm I am. That's >> I am one too. So I know >> that's why I have to keep my my expectations moderated. >> Though arguably I'm a big fan of Christopher Nolan and had he done his own thing I don't think I would be so judgmental. Arguably, uh, The Odyssey is a way bigger project
9:17 than Christopher Nolan. So, so the way that I see it is you're not living up to the Odyssey, Mr. Nolan. >> That's actually nuts cuz what he's saying is a more modern mythology thing and Nolan nailed it. So, why not give him a shot? >> Yeah. >> And Odyssey sucked. >> What do you mean? Odyssey is sick. You don't like Odyssey? >> I don't know that anybody really knows it. I ████ loved it as a kid. >> What' you What' you see? >> Just all No. No. All No, the book >> like all the the adapted for like kids for reading, you know? Like he goes to ████ Medusa. He meets a ████ Menitar. Like all that ████ I thought >> the real book. >> Yeah. The act that's all it is a book. >> Yeah. The real That's why it's called Odyssey. >> Oh, the movie. >> No, the book by Homer. >> Homer. Yes. >> Yeah. >> Like the Iliad. >> Yes. Yes. I'm >> talking about the movie. >> See, I don't I don't know that Odyssey. I didn't see an Odyssey movie. I know there are Odyssey movies. I haven't seen
10:07 the movie. >> Okay. an Odyssey movie. >> Yes, there are many Odyssey movies actually. I'm just saying nothing has ever been blockbuster of this caliber. >> What I'm saying is I love the original >> story. The story. Yes. >> Christopher Nolan is even doing a good job of the original story right now. >> Damn. >> My expectations are very low. >> The 1997 version >> cuz I compare this to like um I compare when people think of like uh like 300. Zack Snider came out of nowhere. Nobody knows this ████ story. Nobody knows ████ It's low budget, but it's just culturally, visually cool. All Marines know that story. It's the first story we learn in boot camp. >> Is that right? >> Battle of Thermopoly. Yeah. >> Well, after in your generation for sure. >> Yeah. I don't know if they learn about now, >> but this it's like it's it's so hard. It's Christopher Nolan's Odyssey. It's very famous. Matt Damon, Anne Hather. There's already Tom Holl. There's so
10:57 much like this is going to be the biggest box. Everybody's going to walk out and you're either going to hear people that are like 10 out of 10 and you're going to be like ████ you loser. You don't you're not a critic. And then you're going to also hear people are just hating because they expected so much. >> By the way, can I just say, >> Chris Nolan, I love you. I'm your boy. I ████ love you. 2 hours and 52 minutes is ████ crazy. Can you just get over it a little bit? Get over yourself a little bit. >> Can't wait for the final cut. >> No, dude. If anybody's going to get over it's got to be James Cameron. That goes like 4hour movie. >> What are you talking about? Avatars? >> Yeah. >> I don't watch that ████ >> They're good though. >> I'm good. >> They're pretty good. >> They're good. And you know what? And I accept that they're repeats of the same movie in a new time way. It's the same ████ >> It's all Pocahontas. >> Yeah, it's all the same ████ and it's ████ tight. >> I'm chilling. >> Dances with Wolves is
11:47 >> Dance with Wolves. Exactly. >> I will say my favorite thing about Chris Nolan casting this though are the memes that have been created. Watching Elliot Paige be the Achilles uh Brad Pit version of Troy. All those memes where she just runs out, Boagrias throws a spirit, and then she just gets burnt right away. It's crazy. AI is funny, dude. >> AI is funny. >> Bart, who is your dream cast for Achilles? >> ████ with the people nowadays. Sydney Sweeney, dude. >> Sydney Sweeney. >> I don't even know. >> That's a It's a guy part, but but um I like it. >> I don't even know. >> For Helen Troy, >> you don't even know. >> You're so pissed off. But okay, who's Helen Troy? Who should be Helen Troy? >> I don't know either. >> You really don't know? >> Give a ████ I think I think I'm the I think I'm the typical like watcher where it's like you just give me all the choices and I'll tell you if I like it
12:37 or not. >> So you're just the complainer boy. >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> Yeah. Okay. >> I would say Megan Fox and her recent Instagram photo shoot. She's hella choy. Wear modern clothes when everyone else is wearing old school clothes. >> Put her on a goddamn phone. Who cares? >> And then if the history guy comes on set, you just call him gay. Get the ████ out of the ████ out of here, dude. >> ████ out of here. >> You're ████ gay, DUDE. >> YO, YOU DON'T LIKE a th Megan thong MEGAN FOX'S ASS. YOU'RE ████ GAY. Get out of here, dude. >> Actually, uh, Helen didn't wear that. >> Not historically accurate. >> Shut up, gay.
