    D23 Unveiled: Sequels, AI, and the Future of Entertainment
    Aug 15 2024
    (0:06)Welcome to the show where we dive deep into movies, TV, and games we keep.(0:12)Cars where they pop, culture on our minds.(0:15)A podcast where entertainment binds.(0:17)Exploring worlds of fantasy and fun.(0:20)Join us now, the journey's just begun.(0:23)Just begun!(0:26)Oh!(0:27)Oh!(0:30)Oh!(0:32)Oh!(0:35)It's that time, it's Media Clash time, Volume 3, Episode 2.(0:40)I'm Wayne, as always, joined by...(0:43)And we're going to talk to you about some of the announcements that have come out in(0:46)the last week or so since you've last been graced with our presence.(0:51)The big thing that happened, we had San Diego Comic Con, which happened around the last(0:56)time we did an episode.(0:59)But the big thing was, D23, this week, well this past weekend, and they announced some(1:10)things going forward.(1:12)Like we said last time when we were talking about some stuff, that they were going to(1:18)save their Disney Plus stuff for D23.(1:24)If you love sequels, Disney's got you covered.(1:27)And again, I think, here's the thing, and I looked at this when I saw what they were(1:34)doing, what issues are they dealing with right now?(1:38)They are dealing with characters and designs going into the public domain.(1:43)So, the only way to keep that from happening, really, is you have to change things up, which(1:48)is why we're getting live action versions of all those old shows, because then you now(1:53)still own, so like the Snow White that comes out, they are going to own that copyright(2:01)for the next 90, 95 years.(2:05)So anything in that movie, that version of Snow White, is theirs until 90, 95 years from now.(2:13)The Steamboat Willie movie, I think, comes out next week.(2:17)And again, I could go into a whole diatribe of why I think, the ability to, I don't(2:23)understand, I don't get the ability for something to go into the public domain.(2:27)I don't agree with it, because what has Blood and Honey, this horror movie version of Steamboat(2:35)Willie, because I think I saw the trailer for that.(2:40)Yeah, there's that, the Bambi.(2:42)Like the Bambi, what does that add?(2:44)You're not adding anything to that copyright.(2:46)You're literally making money off of people going, oh, it's the horror version of, like(2:51)you could have made a horror version of that.(2:53)Like, the problem is you couldn't use those names.(2:56)And nobody's interested in your movie, your horror, your teddy bear murder movie, unless(3:04)it's called Winnie the Pooh.(3:05)Unless he's called Winnie the Pooh.(3:07)If it was like, Billy the, you know, brown bear, like nobody gave a shit about it.(3:14)But you had to, you're using that Winnie the Pooh name.(3:17)I don't know, the new craze in horror now is killer androids.(3:21)Oh, we have, I've not noticed that.(3:24)The, um...(3:25)Well, I mean, AI is always going to be, like, next to Boogeyman, because now you have that(3:29)smart house movie.(3:31)The smart house movie already came out.(3:34)And then you have, you have a, um, the Megan Fox.(3:40)I haven't seen that.(3:41)Fucking android movie.(3:45)Yeah, no, I haven't, I haven't seen that one.(3:48)I think Apple, Apple TV's doing a TV show about, uh, like a little Japanese house robot(3:56)that kind of goes nuts.(3:59)I mean, that's...(4:00)But all that's being put into the Megan crazy AI universe to where I'm thinking they're(4:08)going to all team up at one point.(4:12)Because why won't they?(4:13)So dumb.(4:14)Everybody wants to do their Avengers movie.(4:16)Well, I mean, it's, here's the problem.(4:19)And what we, what we, the same, the criticism people had of all the X-Men movies.(4:24)Like, you exist in a world where all these other characters exist, so they should be there.(4:29)It's not like DC where everything happens separately.(4:33)Like, Batman and Superman don't cross over that much.(4:36)You know, DC characters don't cross over that much.(4:39)Marvel characters, on the other hand, cross over all the time.(4:43)Yeah, because they're all in the same city.(4:44)Yeah.(4:45)That's what I don't think people understand, and they give it shit.(4:48)I'm like, no, this should be how it is.(4:50)Like, Spider-Man should run into Daredevil all the fucking time.(4:55)You know, the Punisher is always on Daredevil's fucking nerves.(4:59)You know, things like that.(5:00)Like, that is a thing.(5:02)But we never got it before, and now everybody's like, oh, everything's got to be pushing the(5:06)next thing.(5:07)Like, that's fucking how comic books work.(5:10)One comic book issue leads into the next.(5:13)It's an ongoing, continuing story.(5:15)There is no such thing as a truly one-off story that doesn't matter, unless it's labeled(5:21)What If or Elseworlds.(5:25)So, some of the non-Marvel stuff that got announced there was...(5:35)The live-action Snow White that everybody already tried to cancel.(5:40)What's crazy is they were playing...(5:41)So, originally, Peter Dinklage gave it shit.(5:45)Yes.(5:46)So, it looks like ...
