Starting point is 00:00:00 It's time to put your pedal to the metal. From the twisted minds behind Deadpool and Zombieland, an executive producers, Will Arnett and Anthony Mackie, comes the new Peacock original series, Twisted Metal, a high-oxane action comedy based on the classic video game series. Anthony Mackie stars as John Doe, a motor-mouthed outsider who must deliver a mysterious package across a post-apocalyptic wasteland.
Starting point is 00:00:29 If he can survive the drive, also starring Stephanie Beatriz, Samoa Joe, Nev Campbell, Will Arnett, and Thomas Hayden Church, twisted metal, streaming now, only on peacock Hey everyone welcome to Ristie podcast as As always here is Gustav Rola. And Joel Heyman. This week we're actually doing a mobile podcast for the first time ever and we are recording the podcast from our hotel room. And we found some guys in the parking lot and we figured it might be funny to include the dudes from the parking lot in the podcast so maybe we should have them introduce themselves.
Starting point is 00:01:22 Yeah we have a couple of dudes here. Why don't you all introduce yourselves. Wood, we have a couple of dudes here. Why don't you all introduce yourselves? Would would you do the honors mr. Lynch? Mr. Lynch, this is Robert Guillaume. Oh, I'm terribly sorry. Well, I'll just go ahead. I'm Count count 3d and I'm from Canada. Hello. I'm Robert Guillaume from Los Angeles Besides counter-d we have mr. Robert Guillaume over there. Hello You may remember me from the 70's television show called Benson. Dude, you ever used a microphone?
Starting point is 00:01:50 Like step up to it and fucking talk into it. Oh, damn it. I didn't want to be making the fuck as wrong with you. It's a fucking microphone. This podcast is off to a great start. This is what happens. We get rookies in here for the first time. I didn't know what's going on.
Starting point is 00:02:02 That's a microphone. You talk into it. Hello, internet. There it is. Okay, so like I said, we're here at Comic Con for, I think what is this Joel like our fifth Comic Con ever? I think it is. Yeah, fifth Comic Con, yep. How many of you been to? I think this is my third. I think this is my fifth. It never gets old. I'm more worn down than I am. It never gets old. We're here. We came out in advance of everyone else from the office.
Starting point is 00:02:28 I'll be showing up tomorrow so that we could try to set up the booth and run around and do all the stupid stuff ahead of time. Guess what is the one thing you were looking forward to seeing the most at Comic-Con this year? Sunday night when we're done. That is the thing I'm looking forward to most seeing. It's weird that you ask that.
Starting point is 00:02:46 Like I said, this is my fourth or fifth Comic Con, and I don't think I've ever seen anything at Comic Con. Like normally we're stuck in the booth all day, and then by the time we're done, I'm just so beat down. I don't get to see anything. No, absolutely. It's the same thing, except for I go, I usually find 10 minutes where I can trot off
Starting point is 00:03:02 and go by like a hoodie with a superhero thing and signal in the front of it and that's it, that's my Comic Con. You know, there is one thing I'm supposed to see. My wife insisted that I had to go take a picture of Michael Jackson's glove. Waving everyone, right? I think they're going to have it flipping everyone off. Well, they don't have that, you know, someone's going to have to like make that happen probably. So I think that's the only thing I'm looking, that's the only thing I'm gonna see.
Starting point is 00:03:25 I would like to see maybe some more Tron 2.0 footage, hopefully some avatar stuff, but most likely I'll be stuck in the booth. Actually, no, I take that back. This Comic Con is gonna be a little different than past Comic Con's. We actually, since we launched Achievement 100 last year, we've actually tried to leverage that this year
Starting point is 00:03:43 and we have business meetings with video game companies to see games and talk about them. And how many? How many? I think we have like six meetings. No, that's impressive. That's nice. Now, how many sort of email correspondence did you have to get those six meetings?
Starting point is 00:03:59 It wasn't very many. It was actually pretty good. It was only like eight or nine emails. Michelin, what is the one thing you were looking forward to seeing the most at this year's comp? You know, I don't know. I've never been to a comic con before I don't know what to expect so I think it's just gonna be taking it all and seeing just finding everything on my own Oh, what about you, Catherine? What are you looking for to see most two words? New moon
Starting point is 00:04:22 That's all I have to say Is that a twilight thing? What is that? I just I've signed over to the whole vampire thing. It's absolutely absolutely not I'm fucking not interested in that. Oh man I was gonna say are you being ironic I hope I hope this is a joke. No I mean this shit this is calm calm there's um there's Avatar like you said this is gonna be the probably most groundbreaking film of all time. I'm looking forward to so much goddamn stuff, but that in particular. And obviously, there's a lot of video game presence here,
Starting point is 00:04:52 which I'm also excited about, so I'm looking forward to playing Left for Dead 2. Sure. Oh, you're going to go and check that out. I'm really super excited. That's probably the game I'm most excited to see here. Let me see. And I think maybe there's just one of us in the room who isn't totally excited about that.
Starting point is 00:05:08 Is someone not excited about Left4Dead2? Who could that be? Oh, you motherfucker. What, what, why, why? That's what everyone wants to. Well, no, here's the thing is that I love Left4Dead1. I'm not anti, I'm not Mr. Let's sign a protest form on the internet.
Starting point is 00:05:23 I just think it's really quick. I don't know if there's enough dev time behind it. I mean, you know, I mean making a Photoshop Sorry, yeah, I could be if people keep picking on me this podcast There's some really fucking nasty Photoshop's going up, but um, no, I mean it's proofs in the pudding and you know I'm a huge fan. I don't even know how many hours I signed up for that what 360 voice or whatever it was To track my hours right right. I don't know I haven't gone back to it since the podcast I logged in but I could I've probably got a good I would say 30 or 40 days of Multiplayer on the first one. I would say total yeah, so you know I'd love the first one, but it's just are the are the changes gonna be enough. Did you feel like you got your money's worth out of the first one?
Starting point is 00:06:01 That's on the multiplayer absolutely, but well, I feel like is a frying pan and chainsaw and one different zombie really going to alter the experience. Come on, dude. And four new maps. Four new maps are maps, dude. You can... Any game... Oh, oh.
Starting point is 00:06:15 Okay, any good game. Okay, modern warfare, they added how many maps, called Gears of War... This is like, when did our show turn into the McLachlan group? Because like, we're all attacking people. Like for all the tag you think. You sir are in correct. You are wrong. Objection. The other thing that I am actually excited to see
Starting point is 00:06:30 would be trailers for Doni Darko 3. No. Oh god. He is correct. You had to have been in the car earlier. We had a long Doni Darko bash. It was going to go a little earlier. Seriously, I mean, that is a terrible, terrible movie.
Starting point is 00:06:46 I mean, I really tried to like not call out too many things, but I mean, that's a terrible movie. Yeah, I'm not a fan. I can definitely say that. There's nothing going on in that movie. Dom was in the car for that conversation. We haven't gotten Dom's view on Donnie Darko. And he is the cinema guy.
Starting point is 00:07:01 What do you feel about that? You're not on the spot at all, Dom. Well, are we talking the original cut of the directors cut this huge? Let's go original theatrical release Who's okay? So disappointed so this is a vampire so that script would that like be you know that we're looking for Vampires zombies a little bit of both. It would have been...
Starting point is 00:07:26 I think it was a decent movie. It's just too bad the guy who did it has never done anything good ever again. Kind of where his name was. Yeah, ever. Yeah. Oh. By the way, we're actually drinking seat now. Yeah, I wanted to point that out.
Starting point is 00:07:38 I'm glad you brought it up. Yeah. This is the first actual drunk tank. All the others were frauds kids. We're legit. We're the real deal here. we have photographic evidence this time. And also this drunk tank started about four hours ago. You know normally we record the podcast, where we start recording at about 10 or 10
Starting point is 00:07:54 30 in the morning, so you know it's a little early for hard liquor, normally we're starting the day off with a severe, something like, some bloody marries. But I'd like you to say that to Jeff's face that it's too early But we're we're starting it up right this time and We're definitely we'll say this we were definitely prepared for this drunk tank. Dom you went to RVB Toronto I did Didn't you fly here like straight here from there? I did, I'm insane because that was a very foolish thing to do, just because RVTO, if you don't know, is probably the greatest fan event.
Starting point is 00:08:33 How many people showed up this year? I would say a good 120 about. Wow, wow, that's pretty impressive. But I really wish you all could have been there just because it was many of them were going there for the first time and many of them, I don't know how many of them, there's at least one of the person again on the site, Mukhao, who is going to be a Comic Con. So he and I are going to be here and this is his first or second time. It's a second, I actually met Mukhao for the first time ever here at Comic Con last year, a really nice guy.
Starting point is 00:09:00 I like Dom on the podcast because he sounds British now. Normally when I'm talking to Dom I don't ever hear it accent. It's the drinking folks my accent changes the more I drink But now that we sit down We may have a pirate in here with us Well, Dom what was the best what was the best part of our VBTO? Oh God oh Joel you Well, down what was the best what was the best part of our VBTO? Oh God, oh Joel you have to sucker punch me. Okay
Starting point is 00:09:28 The first night I'd have to say was the best because it was Formal and everyone was meeting each other for the first time and that's always a very cool moment when you have People from the internet meeting for the first time. Hey, I got to ask you about that. Yeah, you said the first night was a formal event Everyone got together? Yes. Was Jeff there? Jeff was there. What did Jeff wear?
Starting point is 00:09:50 Because I can't picture Jeff wearing any formal wear. He probably had a tattoo of a tuxedo. Jeff. What? What? Look at him. What? I'm not naked.
Starting point is 00:10:01 That's a tie. He wore a clean pair of shoes That's Jeff what a sport. Yeah, other in your pictures There are a few pictures and I'm sure many of them will be posted on a site very shortly I'll have to try and and and find some of those but Griffin loop by the way Griffin looked so awesome every single day of the event I heard I heard some I heard like a bunch of people got married or something. Yes, a good friend of mine actually, who I knew these kids before they even met each other. They met each other at the second RVBTO three years ago.
Starting point is 00:10:35 How long have you known them? I've known them for three years. But I used to go to university with one of them, so Ryan. Are you close? Yeah, I'm close, good friends with them. Yeah, I used to drive down to these states, staying out with them. But so anyway.
Starting point is 00:10:48 Yeah, they got married. Or should say they got engaged, which was very cool in front of hundreds of people to say, pop up. I mean, that does sound pretty cool. I mean, but the funny thing is, is that I asked you, like, 10 minutes ago, like, what the best thing about RVVTO was, and like your answer was, oh, we had a a party first night I've known these guys for the years and my best friends like you totally totally
Starting point is 00:11:13 getting called out call them out call no there's a difference between best and most memorable super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super super Ryan and Brett you're always second and domes hard Fidge the McLaughlin group has turned on on dom now Spotlights off point counterpoint the best event in RVBT. Oh, I hate you all So it happens and you mix alcohol and podcasting the lesson is just like if you're friends with Dom and you're gonna get married Like do something just like don't don't propose He's the care he doesn't care. I love you Ryan and Brinne please don't hate me. Did they meet on the site? That's correct they met at RRBTSS. That's awesome. That's crazy. So we could say like Rister Teeth you know helping nerds hook up since 2003. We should get like a percentage of their earnings or something or a kid we should have we should have some sleeve labor by this point second second born yes I think that sounds totally
Starting point is 00:12:11 I mean no seriously there are a ton of people I think who have met got married divorced and remarried all on the side there's got it well we don't want anything to do with the divorce we don't know I mean if they're splitting half their money what's another 10% on top of that? I mean, just come in our way, I'm just saying. Right, you know, our tea, alamani, right? Yeah, our tea amone. Or check your terms of use, folks.
Starting point is 00:12:34 It was in there, you agreed. You agreed, you signed up for an account, you owe us. We're do, and we're collecting. That's gonna be like, that's gonna be at least 20 marriages, right? No, I think that's easily 20 marriages, if not more. Yeah, that's crazy. Yeah It's unbelievable. You know, we're definitely helping people get married that should have no business dating And I'm just gonna get a laugh or something
Starting point is 00:12:58 What the fuck? Well mad Bernie met on the side right before they got Matt Bernie met on the side right before they got a good thank you that's right Robert Guillaume is now on a second second drink in the room we had three of his drinks where at a restaurant where Joel had the most discussing
Starting point is 00:13:14 Joel ate a raw Joel ate a raw fish at dinner tonight didn't you Joel I did it was fantastic you didn't you didn't listen to me we ate at this restaurant called the Yard House, which I always wanted to eat at when we come to San Diego because they have the best pot pie and the best mac and cheese in the world.
Starting point is 00:13:32 And I told everyone that, so what does Joel do? He orders a fucking raw fish. How was the raw fish Joel? Was it as good as a pot pie and as good as mac and cheese? I don't think so. It was a raw fish with guacamole on top. Why did the group turn on me now? It's a macaw-like group. It's your turn. It's my turn.
Starting point is 00:13:52 You're under the magnifying glass now, bitch. Let's go back to talking about the video games. What the hell? What, what, what, what are the six meetings? Well, I changed subjects on you. Say how I do that. This is a nice release. If you don't point it out, it's a lot smoother. I can tell you that right now. Of the six meetings, what's the one you're looking forward to the most? What are the different video games? Yeah, it's a bunch of different video games
Starting point is 00:14:15 and publishers and developers. I'm looking forward to all of them, actually, because we've never actually sat down and done anything like this, where we talk to developers and record it and try to produce something from from I don't know if we'll actually produce anything. You know obviously I'm looking forward to Leforded 2. Beyond that I'm not really sure what else we're looking at that I'm like super excited about. I really would like, oh I'm really excited to get hands on with DC Universe Online just because there's a lot of story behind
Starting point is 00:14:41 that and actually I'm going to go off an attention here, during the playing with us. They were on the playing with us. I still hear thunder. We sat next to, or in the middle of a bunch of people from Sony Online who were flying out here to set up the DC Universe Online demo for Comic Con. And at one point, right after take off, the guy sitting next to me, I was sitting in the middle seat.
Starting point is 00:15:02 The guy sitting next to me turned her and me and goes, oh, he saw I was reading a video game magazine. Oh, you're reading a video game magazine, who's reading PC gamer or something? He was reading a video game magazine, huh? And he was like, on this flight, I bet there's a ton. And he goes, oh, yeah, yeah. On the second I sit out of my car, and the tunnel,
Starting point is 00:15:21 it was all comic-con people. Yeah, and he laughed. He's like, you going off for comic-con, then I take it. I was like yeah, it's oh yeah, that's two He's you know, it's like yeah, I'm going there for work. He was who do you work for and I go I work with Rissertis you know we do this and that we make red versus blue It's oh yeah the red versus blue and he started yelling to all of his co-workers around the plane That he was sitting next to the red versus blue guys, which was terribly embarrassing Are you sure he was just saying no this guy isn't a terrorist, really?
Starting point is 00:15:46 But uh, they seem like they seem like cool guys I can't wait to, especially the marketing chick to sit down and talk to them about about the game. I think I believe I'm meeting with them at 1 p.m. on Friday. Oh you're meeting, so wait wait wait wait you got a meeting out of them on the plane? No no no I already had a meeting lined up. So I wasn't paying attention to what you're saying. I already had a meeting lined up with them, and I'll be seeing them Friday. Let me ask you guys, sorry to ask you, go off on a tangent again, but are you interviewing anyone from Epic Games?
Starting point is 00:16:15 Epic, no, I don't have anyone lined up from Epic as far as I know. Okay, I understand that they're going to be in Comic Con for the gears of war movies going to be coming out a bit. And the director is going to be here, actually. Who's directing that? It's the guy who did the Underworld series, so I think his name is Ken Weisman. Len! Wait, wait, wait. Is that the dude who convinced that hot chick to leave her husband and marry him?
Starting point is 00:16:38 No, he's married to Kate Beck and Sale. Yeah, yeah. So he is basically God. He also did the diehard. He did live for your diehard, Len Weisman. That's correct. It is the first two underworlds and then because he helped like co-write them. And Danny McBride also co-wrote those and if you've ever seen Eastbound and Down, I don't know how he went from vampire movies to uh, Eastbound and Down and Land of the Lost and all that,
Starting point is 00:16:57 but that guy, I think Square is taking off. But uh, Glenn Weissman, yeah, he's basically a god. Okay. It's probably gonna get cut, but but finch these microphones are designed to drown out external noises you have to really get on top of him for them to pick you up are you ready to rock just like that I said are you ready to rock the only like thing that they hear who Who's that guy who keeps screaming? I don't know, it's really weird. It's the bell hop. I'm looking for a tip.
Starting point is 00:17:30 So I know we've only been into the convention center once or twice at this point, you know, in the process of setting up. Has anyone seen anything that looked cool? I'm honestly a little shocked at how little has been done by exhibitors to like set up their booths by this point. I figured a lot more would be built out, but it seems like the hull is pretty bear at this point. I saw some pretty impressive forklifts. It's all out of those. I haven't seen anything.
Starting point is 00:17:55 What did you see anything? No, but I heard something about how the green hornet car is going to make an appearance for those of you who are interested in that. I heard the green hornet car is actually to make an appearance for those of you who are interested in that yeah hurt the green hornet cars Actually gonna be unveiled what they said eight or eight thirty Wednesday evening by Seth Rogen right that's yeah, he's gonna be there and he's gonna show it I didn't even know that I hope this is not gonna be a new movie. I didn't know green Rogen is the green hornet car. Hey, I'm a car. It's that's broken in the guy movie He is and who's he playing maybe the green
Starting point is 00:18:26 on it no no they can't be right I just heard that a Nicholas cage is going to be the bad guy you know he's he's good for whatever you know to pay man is that one of green hornets enemies is that right I'm not a follow-comic books very much I'm like how did they get that much. I'm not gonna. I'm not gonna. I'm not gonna. I'm not gonna follow comic books very much. I'm not gonna follow comic books very much. I'm not gonna follow comic books very much. I'm not gonna follow comic books very much. I'm not gonna follow comic books very much. I'm not gonna follow comic books very much. I'm not gonna follow comic books very much. I'm not gonna follow comic books very much. I'm not gonna follow comic books very much. I'm not gonna follow comic books very much. I'm not gonna follow comic books very much. I'm not gonna follow comic books very much. I'm not gonna follow comic books very much. I'm not follow comic books very much. I'm not follow comic books very much. I'm not follow comic books very much. I'm not follow comic books very much. I'm not follow comic books very much. I'm not follow comic books very much. I'm not follow comic books very much.

I'm not follow comic. I'm not follow comic. I'm not follow comic. I'm not follow comic. I'm not follow. I'm not follow comic. I'm not follow comic. I can find. It was a 1981 strawberry shortcake.
Starting point is 00:19:07 $25,000. What? What was it? Was it like an original supermanager? It was put in a version of the blood mixed in at the red ink. I'm totally kidding. Actually, the most expensive comic that I did find it was a superman comic and I think it was around $10,000. Wow, that's...
Starting point is 00:19:21 And I've had a bunch of them for like $5,000, $7,000. It was like, and I've had a bunch of them for like 5,000 7,000 it was like And I almost I was almost like geez. I Shot by this comic book. Did you know I did fuck now? Okay, good. I'm honestly honestly. I wish you had so I can make fun of you right now Like five years later and that would be like the first comic you know what actually would be interesting Yeah, you should go and see if you can find that comic again this year and see how much it's selling for now. I bet you, oh, this is interesting,
Starting point is 00:19:49 but I bet you're million dollars, it's worth less. Well, why would you say that? Do you have a lot of questions about it? I think the peak of comic book, and I could be completely wrong about this, but it seems to me like the late 90s early arts was the height of comic book prices. Also, we're in a recession, right?
Starting point is 00:20:06 No, I guess that's true. Maybe you can find Stan Lee and have him autograph it. I'll guarantee you, I'll guarantee you that when we were dealing with the NASDAQ internet bubble, I guarantee you there was a correlation between the highest price comic books before that bubble verse. I bet you after that bubble verse, I bet comic books just devalued. But see that's the that's the
Starting point is 00:20:28 thing with collectibles with any collectible with the comics sports cards any of that. They give you these price guides with these sky high jacked dreams you know year after year where it just keeps climbing and climbing. No one's ever gonna pay that amount for it because there's so many in circulation and as years go by that person gets forgotten unless they're like friggin Kobe Bryant or it is like issue number one of Spider-Man and it's in perfect pristine condition you're never gonna get that asking price for it so the collecting I don't know I think it's a racket it's been a racket well I bet you'll get something I mean there is a value on sure much sure
Starting point is 00:20:59 yeah it's it's only worth what someone's willing to pay for I mean a book can write whatever value it wants that doesn doesn't mean shit. Right, exactly. That's like, I bet you need a baby. Beanie baby, blood, there who's spending thousands of dollars. It's like watching Antique's Road Show and like someone brings a piece of shit plate and they're like, oh my god, father gave me this plate. Like, oh wow, this plate's worth $15,000.
Starting point is 00:21:18 Bullshit. No, like I read a story. I read a story I think on the New York Times like two days ago about like, construction worker Finds barrel and in the barrel of these old wooden like statues and to know these statues were 17,000 dollars Now okay, so you're in a construction site. You find an old barrel. You open up the barrel. There's some statues I guess what do you do you immediately take it to like an antiquities expert? Oh, yep 17,000
Starting point is 00:21:45 I didn't know. I hadn't heard that story. That's interesting. I don't know. I don't know. So what's the market? Can we pull up the internet and see what B&B babies are going for nowadays? You should look up the most expensive comic book.
Starting point is 00:22:00 Oh no, I'm not doing that. You're so lazy. We're talking. I'm not going to break the beat so we can all pause and sit around with our thumbs up arouses. Well, I do stupid Google searches and try to find a His thumb is already up his ass. So I mean we're already halfway there the only way he'll talk into the microphone That's how you get Robert Gio into work Tennis writer. What do we do? Do we have any don't are we we're selling griff holes, right?
Starting point is 00:22:24 Griff hole guys were not but for ten thousand dollars a piece. Toys of Russ is selling limited edition gryffball figures. Surely we brought something here. Who made those limited edition gryffball figures? McFarlane toys. Actually we had Gavino tied up in the basement for about two months. Cobbling. Cobbling, cobbling, cobbling. You can't do this. Let me ask you. Why, why Griffball? I think probably because it's like identifiable. It doesn't look or people have an association with it and it's not just, you know, a weirdly colored Spartan. You know, I guess maybe Griffball shows up in the Bungie playlist every now and then and people might
Starting point is 00:23:02 be more familiar with Griffball than say, you know, you know the career versus blue character which might just be and they already sell you know generic red and blue Spartans. So does Jeff like wear a tiara around the office because this happened? You know uh McFarlane sent us two of the Gryff Ball figures and we had them at the office and you know I had one because I've been talking with them and Bernie had the other one and he was using his as a belt buckle right jeff guilted me into giving him mine so i don't have one anymore why wouldn't they send one named after the care why wouldn't they send through what is so
Starting point is 00:23:34 wrong with mcpharlan industries i don't know it's not that all i think they sent it with the intention that he would get one that that the problem is that you work in an office of seven whole people, okay? You think they could cop up seven whole? I'm not gonna talk shit about them. They're making a griff call for you, dude. I think the problem was,
Starting point is 00:23:53 for a long time, we were working on a McFarlane action figure and I turned out to be a disaster. So, oh my goodness. So, you know, you asked what, like, the video game meetings I'm excited about and what I'm looking forward to this week. And actually, I just remembered that I have a meeting with like to see Splinter Cell Conviction on Friday, I believe.
Starting point is 00:24:11 Sweet. And it's like, it's going to be like a whole event. Like they're going to. Now, have you done your homework? Have you come up with questions like deep, meaningful questions that ask them to be like, wow. Well, you know, it, yes and no. Like, was Splinter Cell Conviction was one of those games. It's been in development for so long like questions that ask them to be like wow you know it yes and no like I was
Starting point is 00:24:25 financial conviction was one of those games it's been a development for so long that it kind of was on my radar fell off my radar then after this last E3 came back onto the radar because I thought the demo they gave it E3 was really awesome and I'm honest I'm really excited to see it and unfortunately it won't be a hands-on it'll be like a walk through with someone else running the controls but now now Gus I have to ask this question. You keep saying I for all these meetings I have a meeting with so and so I have a meeting So you're the only one going and the rest of us got it like just vlogger. I'm royal. I. Oh, it's the royal
Starting point is 00:24:55 I the editorial I I should say this I set them up, but Jeff and I are both going but we knock them down. Oh, just you and Jeff. Okay So have fun enjoying that little butt vacation with each other. No, we'll try to bring as many people as we can. I think the Splinter Cell one might be difficult, and the EA one might be difficult to get more people into. This means Joel's going to have to be doing caboose impressions for eight hours while you guys are out of honey moaning with the Splinter Cell.
Starting point is 00:25:22 Joel said he wasn't interested in any of those meetings. So I think, and this is not a knock against any of the games. I'm sure they if I'm punny moaning with Joel's inner self. Joel said he wasn't interested in any of those meetings, so... I think, and this is not a knock against any of the games, I'm sure they're all excellent. But I'd rather, you know, just play the video game, you know? I think the one that I would be interested in going into maybe would be the... Zombie thing that Flinge... Flinge does like for whatever reason. You know what's kind of funny is it Gus earlier was like You know, it's funny because Dom all of a sudden has a weird accent and we're not sure why but it occurs to me that Gus
Starting point is 00:25:55 Also has a weird accent. I do yeah when he goes in the podcast It's like this is Gus in real life Hi, this is Gus. I'm with the podcast, and today we'll be talking about whatever subject's video. Y'all, I'm kicking you out of the sack! I'm talking about the podcast. That's what it's so funny, because it's serious. Is this mannerisms 101? We have this weird cloning experiment going on. Speaking of which, Joel told me something really creepy at dinner tonight.
Starting point is 00:26:22 It was fairly creepy. That he has been practicing trying to get my mannerisms down and that he's trying to figure him out better. And I said, why Joel, what the fuck are you doing? He said, oh nothing, I shouldn't have said that. I'm not talking about this. What the fuck are you doing Joel? Well, I didn't want to say anything, but I did have a costume for Comic Con.
Starting point is 00:26:42 Bulls. I'm going as Gus. It's going to be great. You got me really scared, Joel. I'm going to be changing up all my mannerisms now. You're not going to know who you're dealing with. We're going to make it feel good. Well, were you going to go as Gus or Super Gus?
Starting point is 00:26:55 They're really the same. Well, I mean, you know, I don't know. You wrote the screenplay on that. So, you know, you might want to elaborate on that. I mean, that's, you know, maybe that's why you're learning as mannerisms for Super Gusust to is that in the words is that a common con exclusive supergust to
Starting point is 00:27:08 russ wrote it through his life being got that was it i want to point out that guss is fallen prey to hip-hop marketing by drinking srirach vodka which is owned and i believe comes from the penis of Sean P. Diddy Combs? Does it? Yes, yes. He owns manufacturers and normally I only drink Tito's vodka which is an Austin-based vodka place but they didn't have Tito's here obviously because it's kind of a small company. I bought Sir Rock because someone once bought it for me at a convention in Dallas
Starting point is 00:27:44 and I thought that tasted okay. Who bought that? Who bought that for you? I believe it was spiky 206 on the site. Really? Yeah and because I remembered it I grabbed it. I only ever drink Tito's. You've never had Grey Goose in your life. I have had it like when I was younger. Yeah sure but I mean. What? You've had so much Grey Goose is expensive compared to Tito's. Tito's is like so cheap. It's a wrap it up. We're Comic Con. We have 9 million things we have to do. And we have no exclusives for our podcast. I'm running out of clothes to wear. Is there any cool shit I can buy that you'd recommend?
Starting point is 00:28:17 I highly recommend the Rooster Teeth Griffball Polo, which is a Comic Con exclusive. Is that something Bernie would wear? I would, I would highly recommend the the gif ball i would highly recommend you become like a dj and like soft music no no seriously would bernie burns where the gif ball polo going more for the npr oh demographic but yeah bernie burns what in fact he bernie brates is probably going to be wearing where is his underwear let's see that's what I'm saying is you can you can connect with your
Starting point is 00:28:49 with your buyers by saying the founder of the company he's not only the founder of the company but he's also a client yeah sure right like the hair club dudes you sound like an amics commercial or something I was going for a a a a a a a a co but there you go well it started with an a. What else anything else? Anyone else a closing should we have closing? Yeah? Anybody have closing thoughts before we wrap this up? Dom closing thoughts Yeah, you've been really quiet this podcast Dom. You have to carry this now I haven't been doing enough drinking. I apologize for that

You're surrounded by three losers that didn't make it this year, Dom, way to go and we're drunk So basically Dom is saying come to our VBTO 2010, right basically Okay, so I guess any other and you know the close and closing statements This has been a real hoot.
