00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.060
One of our discord members asked us What is a

00:00:03.060 --> 00:00:05.919
toy or game that you would go ham on if they

00:00:05.919 --> 00:00:09.380
did a proper reboot or new addition? That's a

00:00:09.380 --> 00:00:12.380
tough one, but I actually thought man. We're

00:00:12.380 --> 00:00:14.599
gonna expand this beyond just toys and games

00:00:14.599 --> 00:00:17.300
We're gonna go through all the fun media shit

00:00:17.300 --> 00:00:19.480
because we love everything here So we're gonna

00:00:19.480 --> 00:00:21.420
talk about the stuff that we wish you would reboot

00:00:21.420 --> 00:00:23.019
chat throw in there what you would like it to

00:00:23.019 --> 00:00:26.160
reboot Jay, why don't you kick us off? You've

00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:30.500
got two here one I get One I'm not in the realm

00:00:30.500 --> 00:00:35.859
of movies Okay, so I'm guessing you're getting

00:00:35.859 --> 00:00:39.219
the fast and the furious That that's the one

00:00:39.219 --> 00:00:41.740
that I don't understand don't understand. Why

00:00:41.740 --> 00:00:43.679
the fuck do you not understand? We don't need

00:00:43.679 --> 00:00:46.179
they're still going on. I don't need a reboot

00:00:46.179 --> 00:00:51.950
No, no the the the prompt was A proper reboot.

00:00:52.329 --> 00:00:55.369
The first Fast and the Furious movie was a good

00:00:55.369 --> 00:01:00.630
movie. I really enjoyed it. And then. And then

00:01:00.630 --> 00:01:03.049
they lost their minds. Yeah, they started sending

00:01:03.049 --> 00:01:11.549
Fierro's to space. Oh, God, it should have stopped

00:01:11.549 --> 00:01:15.650
a long time ago. So I would love for them to

00:01:15.650 --> 00:01:21.620
go back to their roots where. They are just a

00:01:21.620 --> 00:01:26.019
street racing gang that sometimes occasionally

00:01:26.019 --> 00:01:30.159
steals shit and gets into trouble with the law,

00:01:30.200 --> 00:01:34.219
with like petty crime shit. That's it. Fucking

00:01:34.219 --> 00:01:39.099
no FBI, CIA, no space, no NASA, no submarines,

00:01:39.319 --> 00:01:47.120
no whatever. Just very simple that. And then.

00:01:47.280 --> 00:01:49.719
So i'm actually surprised. Um, the other one

00:01:49.719 --> 00:01:52.319
that I had here was ender's game, um, because

00:01:52.319 --> 00:01:56.239
I loved the book I was obsessed with the book

00:01:56.239 --> 00:02:00.099
and the movie was not very good Yeah, now I would

00:02:00.099 --> 00:02:03.319
hold a proper review. I have always I would like

00:02:03.319 --> 00:02:07.370
to I have always though been under the the I've

00:02:07.370 --> 00:02:08.810
always had the feeling that Ender's Game was

00:02:08.810 --> 00:02:10.870
one of those ones that was very difficult to

00:02:10.870 --> 00:02:14.270
adapt faithfully because it's brutal and it's

00:02:14.270 --> 00:02:18.030
like children killing other children, you know,

00:02:20.949 --> 00:02:32.629
so so there's that. Proper. Proper reboot. Honestly,

00:02:32.629 --> 00:02:38.159
for movies. I got nothing. I like movies the

00:02:38.159 --> 00:02:42.060
way that they are. Nothing. Right. Nothing. Nothing.

00:02:42.620 --> 00:02:45.979
I don't I don't want a reboot. And the stuff

00:02:45.979 --> 00:02:48.159
that would come to my mind, I don't think would

00:02:48.159 --> 00:02:54.460
be as good. Right. Back to the future. You're

00:02:54.460 --> 00:02:57.539
just never going to do it that well again. Right.

00:03:01.960 --> 00:03:05.930
Yeah. In the subject again, Chad is Chad is back

00:03:05.930 --> 00:03:07.129
in there. I'm going to hit some of these chat

00:03:07.129 --> 00:03:12.349
ones at the end. So for movies. I got nothing.

00:03:12.669 --> 00:03:20.710
I honestly. I got nothing. Moving on to television

00:03:20.710 --> 00:03:24.370
shows, Jay, I'm I'm I'm on board with this idea.

00:03:24.949 --> 00:03:31.169
I got another one, but. Go. Jump Street, Jump

00:03:31.169 --> 00:03:35.069
Street. was obsessed. I think this is what got

00:03:35.069 --> 00:03:39.830
Johnny Depp his start. If I'm if I'm thinking

00:03:39.830 --> 00:03:42.150
about that correctly, because he was so young

00:03:42.150 --> 00:03:45.770
in that. But yeah, the very classic I think early

00:03:45.770 --> 00:03:50.689
90s Jump Street. We they kind of they did reboot

00:03:50.689 --> 00:03:53.949
it as with the movies and they were funny and

00:03:53.949 --> 00:03:57.490
they were funny and they were cool. But I would

00:03:57.490 --> 00:04:00.710
love the I don't know the reboot of the TV show.

00:04:02.339 --> 00:04:04.599
Okay Because we were talking about it and it

00:04:04.599 --> 00:04:09.080
is top of mind to me Um early in the show, I

00:04:09.080 --> 00:04:13.419
think they should reboot cheers I think that

00:04:13.419 --> 00:04:16.800
it would be a really good show If you did it

00:04:16.800 --> 00:04:20.519
right and it's a cheap show to make Right. You

00:04:20.519 --> 00:04:25.100
have one set Right, you build one set and you

00:04:25.100 --> 00:04:27.420
set it in the bar and everybody's just kind of

00:04:27.420 --> 00:04:32.189
coming in and out Okay Think Cheers and we could

00:04:32.189 --> 00:04:35.290
use a good sitcom because you can still use it

00:04:35.290 --> 00:04:37.430
for social commentary You can use it for funny.

00:04:37.490 --> 00:04:40.089
You can use it for anything and I think a good

00:04:40.089 --> 00:04:44.490
multi cam one set Cheers sitcom reboot would

00:04:44.490 --> 00:04:49.449
be freaking awesome So so my vote is for Cheers

00:04:49.449 --> 00:04:52.829
That's just lazy writing right there Alex. I'm

00:04:52.829 --> 00:04:56.069
telling you telling you right there. It's great

00:04:56.069 --> 00:05:04.259
Video games Let's go to video games. So I got

00:05:04.259 --> 00:05:11.860
two here. I think two of my favorite. Video games,

00:05:12.040 --> 00:05:18.040
one. Need for Speed Underground, too. I I do

00:05:18.040 --> 00:05:21.540
not think that we had a game like Need for Speed

00:05:21.540 --> 00:05:27.220
Underground, too. I don't know, just the whole

00:05:27.220 --> 00:05:30.569
like kind of underground scene. It had a killer

00:05:30.569 --> 00:05:32.970
soundtrack. You could customize your car for

00:05:32.970 --> 00:05:35.870
like no reason other than to just to fucking

00:05:35.870 --> 00:05:39.569
do it. I really love that game. I played it to

00:05:39.569 --> 00:05:42.850
death. And then the other one I played on the

00:05:42.850 --> 00:05:46.810
GameCube that I was obsessed with was a Star

00:05:46.810 --> 00:05:51.649
Wars bounty hunter. Loved. OK, I could see that.

00:05:52.319 --> 00:05:54.720
I'm actually thinking about somebody in the YouTube

00:05:54.720 --> 00:05:56.939
chat actually took mine from me. Although I'm

00:05:56.939 --> 00:05:58.699
going to change one thing about it. The YouTube

00:05:58.699 --> 00:06:00.279
chat was like, give me my damn cell shade of

00:06:00.279 --> 00:06:04.540
Chrono Trigger. I swear I want a Chrono Trigger

00:06:04.540 --> 00:06:07.639
remake a la what they've done with Final Fantasy

00:06:07.639 --> 00:06:12.019
7 Rebirth and remake, right? Give me a live action,

00:06:12.660 --> 00:06:14.180
like not live action with the movie, but like

00:06:14.180 --> 00:06:17.379
the, not a turn -based, but like a go action

00:06:17.379 --> 00:06:22.290
RPG Chrono Trigger. With that level of graphical

00:06:22.290 --> 00:06:26.810
fidelity, with those characters, give me Chrono

00:06:26.810 --> 00:06:31.709
Trigger. Dude, I would... I would 100 % that

00:06:31.709 --> 00:06:35.269
stupid game again. Right? Chrono Trigger, one

00:06:35.269 --> 00:06:37.850
of the very few games where New Game Plus was

00:06:37.850 --> 00:06:42.129
worth it. Totally worth it for New Game Plus.

00:06:43.149 --> 00:06:45.230
So many different endings. So many different

00:06:45.230 --> 00:06:48.709
ways to play the game. Loved it. Give me some

00:06:48.709 --> 00:06:54.540
bloody Chrono Trigger. Okay. Like, oh man. I

00:06:54.540 --> 00:07:02.420
would pay $150 for that game. Happily. Okay.

00:07:04.800 --> 00:07:07.620
Did you play Chrono Trigger? I don't think I

00:07:07.620 --> 00:07:12.040
did. Dude. Dude. One of the greatest video games

00:07:12.040 --> 00:07:19.360
of all time. Top 20. Easy. Easy. I've heard about

00:07:19.360 --> 00:07:27.319
it. Oh, it's so good. It's so good. Oh, yeah,

00:07:27.379 --> 00:07:29.420
I've heard about it. I've seen it. I don't know

00:07:29.420 --> 00:07:31.480
how you haven't played torture. You're missing

00:07:31.480 --> 00:07:35.959
out. Oh, all right. On the thing where where

00:07:35.959 --> 00:07:38.180
people were talking about this at the start,

00:07:38.500 --> 00:07:44.620
toys, toys, Jay. Jay has the most 90s answer

00:07:44.620 --> 00:07:46.459
ever for this. And I'm going to bring this up

00:07:46.459 --> 00:07:48.920
in the browser for everybody. Go take it away,

00:07:49.120 --> 00:07:55.360
Jay. Yeah, street sharks. I loved it. The most

00:07:55.360 --> 00:07:59.459
90s thing ever. Holy shit. You can still buy

00:07:59.459 --> 00:08:02.639
them on Amazon. You can buy them on Amazon. I

00:08:02.639 --> 00:08:07.290
mean, look at this, dude. Isn't that crazy? That

00:08:07.290 --> 00:08:09.930
is absolutely bonkers. Look at that. He's got

00:08:09.930 --> 00:08:12.829
the like blue, white and black camel pants and

00:08:12.829 --> 00:08:20.990
combat boots. Jack Hammer, headbutt action. And

00:08:20.990 --> 00:08:23.490
there's even like a commercial where Vin Diesel

00:08:23.490 --> 00:08:26.110
is actually playing with street sharks and it's

00:08:26.110 --> 00:08:29.810
he is skinny. He's not muscular and he has hair.

00:08:29.810 --> 00:08:31.850
If you want to check that out. Oh, yeah. No,

00:08:31.949 --> 00:08:34.269
they got. They got some streets, some street

00:08:34.269 --> 00:08:38.470
sharks here with magic bite action. This really.

00:08:38.690 --> 00:08:41.830
Oh, look at this fingerless gloves. That's fingerless

00:08:41.830 --> 00:08:44.570
gloves on the tiger shark. Well, he liked when

00:08:44.570 --> 00:08:47.070
I was a kid with. Oh, and he's wearing roller

00:08:47.070 --> 00:08:51.350
blades and he's wearing roller blades. You can

00:08:51.350 --> 00:08:56.370
not get more nineties than that. That is the

00:08:56.370 --> 00:09:00.210
best. Mine is also very 90s. I'm going to bring

00:09:00.210 --> 00:09:03.710
it up. Some of you will remember this. It's some

00:09:03.710 --> 00:09:08.210
time in the future. In the future. Ultimate challenge.

00:09:08.870 --> 00:09:15.990
Crossfire. Crossfire. Oh, dear. And for nothing

00:09:15.990 --> 00:09:23.649
else than the commercial. Okay. I love this commercial.

00:09:23.850 --> 00:09:28.210
It's ridiculous It's absolutely silly and I played

00:09:28.210 --> 00:09:30.549
this game I had this game and it was completely

00:09:30.549 --> 00:09:34.509
luck based like it was so dumb. It was so tough

00:09:34.509 --> 00:09:38.590
But I would do it just for the commercial Okay

00:09:38.590 --> 00:09:43.269
like that's Yeah, I would go out and buy crossfire

00:09:43.269 --> 00:09:50.929
and have drunk crossfire tournaments Okay What

00:09:51.129 --> 00:09:53.149
OK, we're moving on to bands. What band could

00:09:53.149 --> 00:09:54.730
we we're going to do this? This isn't a reboot.

00:09:55.070 --> 00:09:57.230
What band would you go see if they were no longer

00:09:57.230 --> 00:10:04.269
around? Hmm. You wrote something down here. I

00:10:04.269 --> 00:10:06.570
did. And I just realized, like, yeah, they are

00:10:06.570 --> 00:10:11.350
still around, but they're not. They're not. So

00:10:11.350 --> 00:10:16.269
one, Linkin Park, my favorite band of all time.

00:10:16.490 --> 00:10:21.090
And I would say number two, Nirvana, which Probably

00:10:21.090 --> 00:10:24.129
my second favorite band of all time. So I would

00:10:24.129 --> 00:10:27.889
say those two They never go see if I could that's

00:10:27.889 --> 00:10:30.110
no longer around. I've seen Lincoln. I saw Lincoln

00:10:30.110 --> 00:10:34.309
Park live When Chester was still alive, they

00:10:34.309 --> 00:10:37.529
put on an amazing show It's one of the best shows

00:10:37.529 --> 00:10:40.190
I've ever been to and I think I gotta I gotta

00:10:40.190 --> 00:10:46.350
go with your answer as well that's That stuff

00:10:46.350 --> 00:10:48.649
but and again, I have you ever seen them live

00:10:49.000 --> 00:10:54.220
Did you ever see them live I should say oh No

00:10:54.220 --> 00:10:57.440
ice tickets do you see them this year with the

00:10:57.440 --> 00:10:59.580
new lead singer? Yeah, you have to tell me how

00:10:59.580 --> 00:11:06.799
that works out I'm curious But yeah, okay, let's

00:11:06.799 --> 00:11:08.360
talk about some of the stuff the chat brought

00:11:08.360 --> 00:11:11.279
up first off chat We're not talking about rebooting

00:11:11.279 --> 00:11:13.240
Star Wars. We did that as a whole topic last

00:11:13.240 --> 00:11:16.259
week If you want to see that go look at last

00:11:16.259 --> 00:11:20.149
week's video OK, we already discussed it for

00:11:20.149 --> 00:11:23.610
toys, new Transformers. I think they're still

00:11:23.610 --> 00:11:28.629
making new Transformers. Yeah, toys. I just think

00:11:28.629 --> 00:11:31.889
that they're not any good. Well, no, do you?

00:11:32.110 --> 00:11:36.370
They they're they made the like legit kind of

00:11:36.370 --> 00:11:40.429
I don't know, one foot where you hit a button

00:11:40.429 --> 00:11:43.950
and actually like, oh, yeah. transforms, but

00:11:43.950 --> 00:11:45.590
they're like five hundred dollars or something.

00:11:46.090 --> 00:11:51.350
Yeah. Yeah. For for movie reboots. They did this

00:11:51.350 --> 00:11:55.549
once and it didn't work out well. Robo cop. Yeah.

00:11:56.169 --> 00:11:59.929
Yeah. I wouldn't mind seeing them try again,

00:11:59.929 --> 00:12:04.169
but I think that now is not the time to do it.

00:12:04.789 --> 00:12:09.649
So. I will say I just watched it before hopping

00:12:09.649 --> 00:12:14.830
on. There is a new Apple TV show called Murder

00:12:14.830 --> 00:12:17.909
Robot. I believe I've seen that. I've been meaning

00:12:17.909 --> 00:12:20.909
to maybe pick it up. Only two episodes are out

00:12:20.909 --> 00:12:24.230
as of right now. A main character is Alexander's

00:12:24.230 --> 00:12:27.789
scars guard. How do you say scars guard? It is

00:12:27.789 --> 00:12:31.110
hilarious. It's really funny. Kind of gives me

00:12:31.110 --> 00:12:35.309
a little bit of RoboCop feel. Yeah, you can check

00:12:35.309 --> 00:12:42.190
that out um, yeah somebody else brought up For

00:12:42.190 --> 00:12:44.950
video games the secret of mana the secret of

00:12:44.950 --> 00:12:48.450
mana would be a good reboot again Very classic

00:12:48.450 --> 00:12:51.509
RPG from the Super Nintendo days could probably

00:12:51.509 --> 00:12:55.870
stand to have like a remaster or a reboot Wouldn't

00:12:55.870 --> 00:13:00.490
be bad somebody else brought up this and speaking

00:13:00.490 --> 00:13:07.149
of things that are very very Very 90s. Holy crap.

00:13:07.149 --> 00:13:13.389
I cannot believe this right Biker mice from Mars

00:13:13.389 --> 00:13:22.669
Okay That is also extremely extremely 90s. It's

00:13:22.669 --> 00:13:29.409
so 90s. It's so funny. It's great. I love that.

00:13:29.590 --> 00:13:31.889
So congratulations whoever threw biker mice from

00:13:31.889 --> 00:13:37.570
Mars in there. Somebody else brought up the movie

00:13:37.570 --> 00:13:42.509
Short Circuit. That's a good idea. Yeah. Do you

00:13:42.509 --> 00:13:46.370
know you know that one? Yep, I loved it. Johnny

00:13:46.370 --> 00:13:53.149
five is alive. Yep. And then the downtown little

00:13:53.149 --> 00:13:57.490
thing. Yeah, that was a great, great. Maybe I

00:13:57.490 --> 00:14:00.289
loved it when I was a kid. Yeah, I actually think

00:14:00.289 --> 00:14:04.590
that now is a good time to do. A short circuit.

00:14:06.090 --> 00:14:10.570
Reboot that would be. That would be really solid.

00:14:11.559 --> 00:14:15.100
Couple other ones in the chat a team not a bad

00:14:15.100 --> 00:14:16.940
idea the movie I thought was funny, but I think

00:14:16.940 --> 00:14:19.059
it would actually make a better You could do

00:14:19.059 --> 00:14:21.639
like some guat veteran guys, and I think that

00:14:21.639 --> 00:14:24.259
would work Knight Rider also a good idea. They

00:14:24.259 --> 00:14:28.220
tried it and it didn't work Airwolf greatest

00:14:28.220 --> 00:14:30.960
American hero that actually brings me back if

00:14:30.960 --> 00:14:33.039
we're gonna do like reality shows. Can we bring

00:14:33.039 --> 00:14:37.519
back American gladiators? Where they fired giant

00:14:37.519 --> 00:14:40.509
nerf weapons at each other Did you watch the

00:14:40.509 --> 00:14:46.490
documentary on that? Yes. Oh my gosh. I don't

00:14:46.490 --> 00:14:53.230
know if we could do it today. Yeah. But I think

00:14:53.230 --> 00:14:55.269
we should do it anyway. Screw it. Let's bring

00:14:55.269 --> 00:14:58.549
back American Gladiators. It's cheap to make

00:14:58.549 --> 00:15:04.830
and they can put it on Netflix. You know. Anyway.
