SDCC Marvel Breakdowns & “MCU Take Two”: Mr. Daps and Caitie Bear analyze the biggest news out of Hall H:
Avengers: Doomsday: Details from the exclusive Hall H trailer reveal Doctor Doom’s origins tied to the Fantastic Four on Earth-828. The hosts discuss Tom Hiddleston’s advice that Loki is essential viewing before Doomsday, the collision of three distinct timelines, Hayley Atwell’s return, and whether Marvel is executing a full reset.

Top 5 Things “Worth the Cost” at Disneyland Resort: Inspired by Harry Larry, the hosts draft their own list of high-value Disneyland expenditures:
Lightning Lane Single Pass for your one absolute “can’t-miss” attraction.
Earl of Sandwich for incredible value, savory options, and famous cookies.
The Right Pair of Shoes (whatever keeps your feet happy for 15+ hours).
Dole Whip / Tropical Hideaway Treats for classic, refreshing Disney park flavor.
21 Royal as the ultimate bucket-list, multi-course private dining experience above Pirates of the Caribbean.

0:17
>> Welcome to Geek's Corner. I'm Mr. Dapps.
0:19
>> I'm Katie.
0:20
>> And did you know that it worked this
0:21
week?
0:22
>> Woohoo!
0:22
>> The first San Diego Comic-Con was in
0:25
1970.
0:27
>> Holy moly.
0:27
>> the first couple days of August in 19
0:30
70. Yeah, it's been going on for a long
0:31
time.
0:32
>> not know that.
0:32
>> That's yeah.
0:33
>> Wow, great fun fact.
0:34
>> That's I thought it was appropriate
0:36
after the events of the weekend.
0:38
>> What happened this weekend?
0:39
>> Comic-Con.
0:40
>> What? No way.
0:42
>> Lots of news, lots of fun. Doug was
0:45
there, tweeted,
0:47
threaded,
0:48
posted,
0:49
>> skyed,
0:49
>> skyed, blue skyed it.
0:52
Um, all of those things. He did it for
0:53
us. Great coverage, Doug. Thank you for
0:55
that. And uh lots to talk about, but we
0:58
are going to get into that in just a few
1:00
minutes. Before we get into that, what
1:02
should people do, Katie?
1:03
>> You should go into the chat, wherever it
1:06
is that the chat is for you, and you
1:07
should say many a thing.
1:09
Uh you should also subscribe, wherever
1:12
you are watching, listening. You should
1:13
also
1:14
uh
1:15
you know, say good job to whatever it is
1:18
that you're um watching, listening.
1:20
>> Sure.
1:20
>> Yeah, why not? I I like words of
1:23
affirmation. You should also go to
1:24
dappshq.com.
1:26
There's a post show to this show. It's
1:28
also just like a fun little community
1:29
where we do a lot of like fun little
1:30
crazy wacky doodle things.
1:33
>> know.
1:33
>> Sometimes you get to weigh in on like,
1:36
should Mr. Dapps do TikTok trends?
1:40
>> You never know.
1:41
>> You never know. So, anyway, dappshq.com.
1:43
>> dappshq.com. [laughter] Also, make sure
1:45
to head on over to
1:46
chalkwalk.org/dappsmagic.
1:48
Chalk Walk is this weekend.
1:51
>> Six.
1:51
>> So, it's your last chance to join the
1:54
team, to support the team, team, to
1:56
share about the team, whatever you can
1:58
to help us get the word out, and help us
1:59
make a difference for really it's for
2:02
the children that go to CHOC, which is
2:04
now Rady Children's Hospital.
2:06
>> Our CHOC.
2:06
>> Our CHOC, whatever it is. But, um it'll
2:09
be a great weekend, and uh we'll be
2:10
there bright and early before the sun
2:13
comes up because I believe the opening
2:15
ceremony starts at 5:15 this year. I can
2:18
remember a time I think it started at
2:19
6:00, but
2:20
that's just me.
2:22
I don't know. We we
2:23
>> It's fine.
2:23
>> But, head on over to
2:24
chocwalk.org/dapsmagic,
2:26
join team Daps Magic, and help us make a
2:29
difference for the children of Orange
2:31
County and beyond.
2:33
>> For the children.
2:34
>> Also, one other fun thing you can do
2:36
this week. We have a new caption of the
2:39
week photo. It comes from back in the
2:41
day
2:42
of the Pixar Monic Orchestra, and
2:45
there's something going on with a
2:47
trombone. I don't entirely know, but I
2:50
think it's a fun photo, and um and you
2:53
can see it better over on dapsmagic.com
2:55
because you don't have the Daps Magic
2:57
Caption of the Week logo in the way of
2:59
where the action in the photo is
3:00
happening. But, um I feel like there's
3:03
there's lots of uh
3:05
possibilities with this one because
3:07
I really don't know what's going on.
3:10
>> There are so many possibilities, but
3:12
most importantly I think what I want to
3:13
get on my soapbox right now and say is
3:16
Pixar Pier was so much better when there
3:18
was the Pixar Monic Orchestra.
3:19
>> Live music always makes all the
3:21
difference. I I think that's something
3:22
unique to Disney, and uh
3:25
and I would love to see more of it,
3:26
especially in Pixar Pier. Like, there's
3:29
>> Especially in the band shell. [snorts]
3:31
>> Mhm. It is a band shell.
3:32
>> Where there should be a band in the
3:36
shell.
3:37
>> Yes, absolutely. Would love it. Um
3:40
yeah, so head on over to dapsmagic.com,
3:42
scroll down on that homepage, and you
3:43
will find the caption of the week. Click
3:45
on it, leave your caption,
3:47
then come back later in the week and
3:49
vote for your favorite caption to see
3:50
who wins.
3:51
Or to determine who wins, actually. You
3:53
know, all of that fun stuff.
3:55
All right.
3:56
Housekeeping. Hope you're all ready for
3:58
this. It was a big weekend. Lots of
4:01
news. We're skipping a ton of it because
4:03
it's just too much to cover. Sadly, all
4:06
of the Star Trek stuff, which we could
4:07
fill the entire half an hour with,
4:10
will be passed.
4:10
>> There was a puppy.
4:12
>> There was a puppy. There was a teaser
4:14
for what season 4 is looking like, which
4:16
we're already starting to experience.
4:18
There was um
4:20
in another panel, some some tease about
4:23
what the next movie's going to be, which
4:25
is all we have coming in the future
4:26
after the current Star Trek
4:29
uh
4:29
series ends. So, lots of fun stuff.
4:32
Maybe we'll talk about that at Dads
4:33
After Dark. I don't know.
4:34
>> Maybe.
4:35
>> We'll see. But, there was also a lot of
4:37
Marvel.
4:38
>> So much.
4:39
>> And my big takeaway from all of this
4:41
Marvel news was, is this take two of the
4:44
MCU?
4:45
>> Feels like it.
4:47
>> And and I'm bringing this up because we
4:49
got news about new movies, new
4:50
characters, and then also more news
4:53
about what is going to be happening with
4:56
Avengers: Doomsday, which is uh very
4:59
dim.
5:00
>> [laughter]
5:01
>> Very dim.
5:02
>> Very dim. Uh so,
5:05
what let's let's start with Avengers:
5:06
Doomsday. What we learned. There was a
5:09
trailer shown at
5:12
Comic-Con in Hall H that we've not seen.
5:15
We've read about it, though, because
5:18
you can't put this on the internet
5:19
before Marvel decides it's time. Maybe
5:21
tomorrow, who knows. Um
5:24
what do you think of what you were
5:25
seeing What You just read through it,
5:27
right?
5:28
>> just read through it.
5:29
>> Can you give an overview of basically
5:31
what happened in this trailer?
5:32
>> Uh sure. They um emphasized the fact
5:35
that Doom is connected to the Fantastic
5:38
Four, that he comes from their
5:41
um Earth, 828. Um and that, you know,
5:45
Sue is like,
5:47
"You You weren't like this. You used to
5:49
be a good guy." Um and basically
5:52
>> Did it almost feel Star Wars, too?
5:53
>> Yeah, it did.
5:55
>> Like I literally thought of Anakin and
5:57
um
5:57
>> You're going down a path I can't follow.
6:00
>> Well, I was thinking uh
6:01
um
6:02
Obi-Wan and Anakin at the end.
6:04
>> that.
6:04
>> In three, but go ahead. Yes, anyway.
6:07
>> and about how, you know, he was this
6:09
great person and he had everything like
6:11
he lost everything he loved.
6:13
Sounds a whole lot like Thanos, does it
6:15
not? Um and I'm not saying that
6:18
I'm not saying, "Oh, this is just like
6:20
Infinity War." I'm just saying that to a
6:21
point, sometimes all superheroes start
6:24
to be
6:25
superheroes.
6:27
Um
6:28
but yeah, it's uh basically
6:30
uh da
6:30
>> supervillains?
6:32
>> And well, heroes and villains, they kind
6:33
of all
6:35
Uh
6:35
>> [snorts]
6:35
>> anyhoo.
6:37
Uh yeah, so that is like the gist of
6:39
this trailer and like you see
6:41
the Avengers and also whoever the new
6:43
Avengers are and also
6:46
what are we calling them?
6:49
The Avengers, the new Avengers?
6:51
>> Are we talking about the X-Men
6:52
characters or
6:53
>> No, I'm saying like as a as a whole,
6:55
what
6:55
>> Oh, I don't know.
6:56
>> Whoever the MCU is now.
6:57
>> Whatever the future is. MCU take two.
6:59
>> [laughter]
7:00
>> Um
7:00
>> Uh but no, it does
7:02
it does feel very MCU take two.
7:03
>> Yeah. I think it's interesting because
7:06
another thing, if you're reading around
7:08
different things that happened in the
7:10
course of the weekend,
7:12
um Tom Hiddleston did an interview where
7:14
it was asked, "Should you watch Loki
7:18
before going to see Doomsday?" He
7:20
basically said unequivocally,
7:22
"Absolutely."
7:23
>> I would think so.
7:24
>> And and it does make sense cuz we got
7:25
the official uh
7:27
the official description for the movie,
7:29
too, and it's three worlds basically. In
7:32
fact, I might be able to pull it up
7:33
here.
7:33
>> Ooh.
7:35
>> Well, for us to read.
7:38
But here's here's the official uh uh,
7:40
description for the movie now. And it
7:42
says in Marvel Studios Avengers
7:44
Doomsday, beloved heroes from three
7:46
distinct distinct universes will be set
7:49
on a deadly collision course and face an
7:52
existential threat unlike anything
7:55
they've ever encountered. Obviously
7:56
Doom.
7:57
Um,
7:58
and his his Sentinels. But,
8:01
um,
8:02
this this seems
8:05
unique in a way cuz it's not exactly
8:07
Thanos take two.
8:09
>> No.
8:09
>> Because it is it's pitting three
8:11
timelines against each other and it
8:13
sounds to me almost like something to do
8:16
with the timeline maybe caused Doom's
8:20
grief, I'm going to say.
8:21
>> Mhm.
8:21
>> And this led to, um,
8:25
him wanting to
8:27
correct the timeline so he has wins, you
8:30
know?
8:30
>> Yes.
8:31
>> This is my guess.
8:32
Um,
8:33
and that's kind of an interesting thing
8:35
to be doing and to look at. It is
8:37
another take kind of on Thanos, but
8:40
also, I don't know, I think it's
8:41
interesting. Um, I also think it's
8:43
interesting that we learned for sure
8:44
that, um,
8:47
that the voice, which I assumed it was,
8:49
the voice in the last teaser that we
8:51
talked about last week at the beginning
8:54
is Doom.
8:56
>> Which voice?
8:57
>> That accent, the one that sounded kind
8:59
of
8:59
>> Okay.
9:00
>> Eastern European or something. Um, which
9:03
I think
9:04
well done because hearing that, my first
9:06
thought was not Robert Downey Jr.
9:08
>> Yeah.
9:09
>> So, um, I thought that was super cool
9:11
and I'm looking forward to hearing,
9:13
seeing more of that and, um, I think
9:16
that will be
9:17
terrifying.
9:19
>> I think terrifying is a good word for
9:20
this
9:22
uh, for many reasons, but also
9:26
I think this is going to be
9:27
mind-boggling. Mainly because I think
9:29
every time we see the X-Men in the MCU,
9:32
I get very confused. Um, but I will
9:35
always take the opportunity to see Sir
9:36
Patrick Stewart, so
9:38
>> And Ian McKellen?
9:40
>> Yeah.
9:41
>> Um I do think looking at who was at the
9:44
Hall H presentation, who is in this
9:47
movie, all of that kind of stuff, it
9:49
does seem like they're leaning into
9:51
like, "Oh, this worked in the last few
9:53
years.
9:54
>> Yeah.
9:54
>> to stick with that and what didn't work,
9:57
you may not be seeing so much. Um it'll
10:00
be interesting to see how that plays
10:01
out.
10:02
>> Yeah.
10:03
>> Like don't you like
10:05
>> I also
10:05
>> some characters noticeably not
10:08
represented in either the cast in the
10:11
the people that showed up on on
10:13
Saturday, all of that stuff.
10:16
>> I also think there's a way that is going
10:18
to be very interesting for them to
10:20
approach this because I think superhero
10:21
fatigue is very real. Um and most people
10:27
we know were like, "Oh, I'm at every
10:30
midnight for the first four phases of
10:33
the MCU." And now it's like, "Oh, I
10:35
haven't really seen many of them." Um I
10:38
mean T the TVI Loki season 1 and 2 I
10:41
feel was the last like really big thing
10:43
that kind of everybody watched.
10:45
And Agatha All Along, but that was more
10:46
niche. Um
10:49
and so I think it's going to be very
10:50
interesting, especially because I feel
10:53
like Loki season 1 and 2 was beloved.
10:55
And so that tying into this and like we
10:58
do see the TVA in that teaser that we
11:00
got and all those things.
11:02
I I think they have an opportunity to
11:04
possibly get people back in.
11:06
>> Oh, I think so, too. I think we already
11:07
are because uh if you look at the
11:09
presale, it was double that of Deadpool
11:11
and Wolverine.
11:12
>> Wow.
11:13
>> Like it is a very solid presale and this
11:15
is what, 5 months out, 4 months out?
11:17
Like um it's looking in and I think I
11:20
saw the views were ridiculously high on
11:23
the teaser that was released last week,
11:25
too. And even anecdotally, our post on
11:27
it did quite well, which said to me
11:29
there was there was more interest in
11:31
this one than previous ones. Um I would
11:33
not be surprised at all if we saw
11:34
Deadpool. Um I think it will be
11:37
interesting to see
11:39
like as I mentioned before, there's ones
11:42
that I'm curious
11:45
What are the surprises? That's what I'm
11:46
going to say.
11:47
>> There has to be surprises.
11:48
>> You know there's going to be surprises.
11:49
And then also what are the heartbreaks?
11:51
Cuz it just feels like if you're going
11:53
to be resetting the MCU, which is
11:55
basically what we're hearing is
11:56
happening. Um how do you do that? What
11:59
is the you know
12:01
it doesn't look good for Thor in the
12:02
teaser from last week. [laughter]
12:04
>> Cuz he's a Wrexham fan.
12:05
>> Well, and the way he um
12:07
even the way he was he was speaking in
12:09
his speech and stuff like
12:11
>> Yeah.
12:12
>> This this kind of had it reminds me of
12:14
um King Theoden in um Lord of the Rings.
12:18
I'm like it seems like he might be in
12:20
that kind of a role where this might be
12:23
it for him. We'll see. I don't know. Um
12:25
that one pops out at me. I feel like
12:27
Captain America has to survive one way
12:29
or another just because the world would
12:30
not be the same without Steve Rogers.
12:33
Like you have to have him going on that.
12:35
>> And we learn
12:37
>> Carter
12:38
Hayley Atwell will be in this film,
12:41
which I think is fantastic. Um
12:44
I don't know that I read for sure that
12:45
it was as Peggy Carter though.
12:48
>> No? I thought that's what the article
12:50
said. I could be wrong.
12:51
>> Might have. I I read Hayley Atwell and
12:53
I'm not sure everything. I read a couple
12:54
articles so I
12:55
might be mixing them in. But
12:57
um yeah, it'll be interesting to see
12:59
what happens. We also learned
13:02
throughout the course of this this panel
13:04
that we have a new Black Panther, which
13:06
is
13:08
um T'Challa's son.
13:09
>> Mhm.
13:10
>> And he was introduced to the world.
13:12
We're getting a Black Panther 3.
13:14
>> Mhm.
13:15
>> That's fascinating.
13:16
>> Because if we're resetting the MCU?
13:18
>> Cuz that would be I mean that would be a
13:20
way of resetting it. Like cuz that's you
13:23
could move forward. Um cuz resetting
13:25
doesn't mean necessarily erasing.
13:27
>> Yeah.
13:28
>> It could be this book closed, new book
13:30
opened, which they haven't completely
13:32
done even with, you know, Thunderbolts
13:35
or you know, whatever. Like they've kind
13:37
of
13:38
teased it, but not gone all the way in.
13:40
Um we also learned that Ryan Gosling is
13:43
going to be the new Ghost Rider. Shawn
13:45
Levy's going to be directing that and
13:47
the guy that
13:48
wrote uh Starfighter is writing the
13:51
script for this one. So basically
13:52
they're taking Star Wars new movie and
13:56
putting those three guys in
13:59
MCU new movie in the form of Ghost
14:01
Rider.
14:02
>> Did you ever see the Nick Cage Ghost
14:03
Rider?
14:03
>> Long time ago.
14:04
>> Oh, I've never seen that.
14:05
>> Wasn't it a long time? I think it was
14:06
like it seems like it's forever ago.
14:08
>> I feel like I was in like middle school.
14:09
So
14:10
>> a while ago. Okay, so but like I don't
14:12
know, Ghost Rider's not my favorite.
14:13
It's not my
14:15
least favorite. Like it's kind of just
14:16
like, oh, okay, it's there. Um
14:18
>> I like the ride at Knott's Berry Farm.
14:19
>> There's so many different stories and
14:22
characters you can lean into it and I
14:23
think this one is one of the more
14:25
popular ones, so um you know, I'd be
14:28
open to it and I think it's kind of
14:29
interesting that Ryan Gosling is now
14:32
been in
14:34
Has he been in a Has he been in a 20th
14:36
Century?
14:37
He's getting into every studio that
14:38
Disney owns though.
14:39
>> Mhm.
14:40
>> You think he started Walt Disney
14:41
Studios, he was in Remember the Titans,
14:43
he's in the Star Wars now, so there we
14:45
go into that realm and then uh we'll get
14:47
him in the MCU. It'll be great. Um
14:50
>> Just get him in Pixar.
14:52
>> I feel like that's just But that's
14:54
[laughter] that's also Yeah.
14:55
There you go.
14:56
>> I think so.
14:56
>> Um I hadn't thought of the animated ones
14:58
yet, but uh it'll be interesting to see.
15:00
I think
15:02
I think you can't go wrong with the
15:03
Black Panther stories with the current
15:05
team that's doing it. Um you know, Ryan
15:07
Coogler's coming back to direct and I
15:09
think that's
15:09
>> can only do it if Ryan Coogler's
15:11
involved, in my opinion.
15:12
>> Yes. I agree. Um because I think it'll
15:14
get the respect and the depth that way.
15:17
And um like they they've just done such
15:19
a great job with those. And then um
15:22
I think the big question for Mark for me
15:24
is Ghost Rider, uh because [laughter]
15:26
like what if the worst happens and next
15:29
year we watch this new Star Wars movie
15:32
and we're all asleep or something. And
15:33
then they've put these same creatives
15:36
into And then you're like, that almost
15:39
to me handicap handicaps Ghost Rider.
15:42
And on the flip side, what if it's
15:45
fantastic and like what if the Star Wars
15:48
movie's fantastic and it ups the
15:50
expectations for go It'll be an
15:52
interesting thing to do cuz
15:54
I don't know.
15:55
I'm very curious, but
15:58
it'll be fun, right?
15:58
>> Yeah, it'll be fun.
16:00
>> So, where do you think of Where do you
16:02
think of MCU or what do you think of MCU
16:04
take two?
16:06
>> I don't know. I am a little bit
16:07
overwhelmed just because it does feel
16:08
like a lot of homework and now as we all
16:10
know, I do not love when I have
16:12
>> So, they did say they're going to try to
16:13
make it so you don't have to have as
16:14
much homework.
16:18
>> Still a lot of homework.
16:21
Um it just it just feels like a lot and
16:24
so
16:26
>> Let's hope they learn from their
16:27
mistakes.
16:27
>> Yeah, I I don't want to have to watch 23
16:31
movies to understand or 23 movies and
16:34
then like 12 TV shows and also
16:38
um this one YouTube video that someone
16:40
did a deep dive on once upon a time to
16:42
sum up the Easter eggs that I missed in
16:44
the 23 movies and the 12 shows.
16:47
Um
16:49
but I am cautiously optimistic, I guess
16:52
is what I will say.
16:53
>> Well, and the thing I would say is
16:56
Black Panther's in one part of the
16:57
world. Ghost Rider is
17:00
like not part of the bigger story, I
17:02
don't feel like. So, it really could be
17:04
that we're getting into these more
17:06
isolated, you know, Spider-Man type
17:07
movies, which I'm all [clears throat]
17:09
for. I think it'd be great.
17:10
Um because really you can watch any of
17:12
the Spider-Man movies
17:13
and yes, maybe you want to watch the one
17:15
before, but it's not necessary watching.
17:18
Like, you could hop in on whatever and
17:21
you'd probably be fine just because they
17:23
do such a good job um isolating the
17:26
story and and you can pick up on the
17:28
cues of what happened before. Um yeah,
17:31
I'll be curious to see. I think it's I
17:33
think it's interesting. I am not at a
17:34
point where I'm ready to go wait every
17:37
opening night for Black Panther and
17:39
Ghost Rider, but
17:41
I'm open to it. I'm open to it. Um I do
17:44
want to see Doomsday though. All right.
17:47
There's a trend going around on the
17:48
internet and we have a a team of people
17:52
that when I need ideas, I text. And so,
17:54
I texted them this afternoon.
17:56
>> phone?
17:57
>> And it turns out this is what they came
17:59
up with.
18:08
>> Hi, I'm Harry Larry and [music] well,
18:12
I'm kind of bored.
18:14
I'm supposed to be uh cleaning the
18:16
studio, but that didn't sound so much
18:18
like fun. So instead,
18:20
I thought I would come up with five
18:23
things that are worth the cost to a
18:26
penguin intern.
18:29
First off,
18:30
I would like a high-end pebble engraver
18:34
and polishing kit.
18:36
It's great to have a pebble. It's even
18:39
better to have it polished. You know,
18:42
you only find one and you really want to
18:44
make it last and you want it to be
18:45
beautiful. So, I think that would be a
18:48
really good thing and definitely worth
18:51
the cost.
18:52
Number two,
18:54
a miniature espresso machine for the
18:57
break room because it's a mini break
19:00
room.
19:01
I love our break room, but
19:03
I do love coffee, too and I'd love to
19:05
have espresso.
19:07
Not expresso. Got to get that right. It
19:10
drives Mr. Dapps crazy when you say
19:12
espresso instead of espresso, but
19:15
anyway, I would like to have some of my
19:18
own when I'm in the break room. Is that
19:21
too unreasonable to ask? I don't think
19:24
so.
19:26
Number three,
19:27
a miniature banjo and flipper pick.
19:32
I don't know if they exist, but I think
19:33
I'd like one because then, well, then I
19:36
can contribute to the music, too, and
19:38
not just sing. Cuz I'd like to learn to
19:41
play the banjo. So, I think that's very
19:44
worth it, don't you?
19:47
Number four,
19:48
perhaps most importantly,
19:51
a top hat and a bow tie.
19:54
Because then, when I'm playing the
19:56
banjo, I'll look good.
19:59
Maybe even more than one bow tie. That
20:01
could be kind of fun.
20:03
And the fifth thing that I think would
20:05
be worth the cost, well,
20:08
a broadcast headset with a microphone on
20:11
it.
20:12
Then, I could use it for when I'm making
20:14
music or maybe I could get a job on
20:18
sports casting, but not sports. That
20:21
would be pretty awesome, I think.
20:23
And those are the five things that I
20:26
think are worth the cost.
20:28
Of course, I haven't bought any of them
20:30
yet, but um as soon as I get a paycheck,
20:32
I'm sure I'll do that. I'm sure one of
20:34
those will be coming around, well, one
20:36
of these years.
20:38
Anyway, I hope you like this one and um
20:42
maybe you can tell me what you think are
20:44
the five things that you think are worth
20:46
the cost.
20:48
Maybe even for me.
20:50
I'm not very good at these lists, am I?
20:52
All right. Well, I hope you liked my
20:55
video.
20:56
Bye.
21:05
>> We treat our interns very well around
21:07
here.
21:07
>> How come I feel like you just did a
21:09
Christmas list?
21:10
>> Yeah, I kind of just felt like that.
21:11
>> I I I think
21:12
>> He said would be worth the cost.
21:14
>> I I don't know. So, it did bring up the
21:16
interesting question though. What would
21:18
five things worth the cost be at
21:20
Disneyland or Disneyland Resort?
21:23
>> Do you have any ideas of what it could
21:24
be? We'll come up with five real quick.
21:26
>> Like five together or five
21:28
>> together. Why not?
21:29
>> Okay. Um I think
21:31
>> back and forth. Maybe we'll do a bonus
21:33
one since
21:34
>> I've got a I've got a pretty good one
21:35
for the last one. So.
21:36
>> Okay.
21:37
>> Um I think a lightning lane for your
21:41
can't miss attraction is indeed worth
21:45
the money because
21:47
sometimes you have a lot of things on
21:49
your agenda or you know, you have a
21:51
reservation here, what have you? And
21:53
that that is like your one thing. You're
21:55
like, I have to do this one attraction.
21:59
I fully believe every now and again that
22:01
a lightning lane is going to be worth
22:02
the money because it is like there is a
22:05
value in it.
22:06
>> I like that one.
22:07
I'm going to go with my stomach. I think
22:10
>> Oh, is that your [laughter] stomach?
22:11
>> Worth Yes, worth the cost
22:13
Earl of Sandwich.
22:14
>> Yeah.
22:15
>> I think it is one of the best values,
22:17
it's delicious, the new cookies are
22:19
great.
22:19
>> Mhm.
22:19
>> And it is one of the best deals at the
22:22
resort, especially if you've got a group
22:24
of a variety of people that have
22:25
different tastes and flavors that they
22:27
want cuz you know, they have salads,
22:29
they have soups, they have mac and
22:30
cheese, they have the sandwiches. The
22:32
new sandwich with the carvery.
22:34
>> Mhm.
22:34
>> And most importantly, those cookies.
22:37
>> And most importantly, those cookies.
22:38
>> Those cookies are good. I I would like
22:39
one of those right now.
22:40
>> Um
22:41
>> With ice cream. That's that's the hack.
22:43
>> It's true.
22:43
>> Is you put ice cream on the cookie.
22:45
>> It's true. We brought ours home.
22:47
Um
22:48
>> There's ice cream places at the
22:49
Disneyland Resort, too.
22:50
>> Yes, I have listened to your episode of
22:53
>> cup.
22:54
>> I have been listening.
22:55
>> All right, go ahead.
22:56
>> Um I will say this one is something to
22:59
buy before your trip to Disneyland
23:01
Resort. And that is whatever a good pair
23:05
of shoes looks like for you.
23:08
And this doesn't mean that you have to
23:09
go get a pair of Brooks or Hokas or
23:12
whatever it is. If you are so
23:14
comfortable in a pair of rainbow
23:15
flip-flops that that is what you can do
23:17
an entire day in, love that for you. I
23:20
personally have
23:22
a pair of Nikes that I could probably do
23:25
27 hours straight in. Um that is worth
23:29
it for me. So I would say get you
23:32
whatever your version of the most
23:34
comfortable shoe is.
23:36
>> Okay.
23:37
Um also, I'm going to go with what's
23:39
worth it. This one's kind of a
23:41
no-brainer, but
23:44
anything from the Dole Whip stand.
23:45
>> Okay.
23:46
>> Or Tropical Hideaway. I'm going to I'm
23:47
going to
23:48
give kind of a
23:49
>> Yeah.
23:49
>> Um this might be the heat speaking a
23:51
little bit, but I think it's refreshing,
23:53
it's delicious, it's not super overly
23:55
like it's a fair price I feel like for
23:57
what you're getting. And there are few
24:00
things more quintessentially Disney.
24:03
Like when you think of Disneyland, you
24:04
think of a Dole Whip. And um
24:07
and I don't know, I just like them. I
24:09
think it's great. And you can take them
24:10
in the Tiki Room.
24:11
>> It's true.
24:12
>> I think that's that's my second one.
24:15
Which is also our fourth. All right,
24:18
what's the big one?
24:19
>> Okay.
24:20
I have said this many a time, and really
24:22
the trend is expensive things that are
24:25
worth the money. Like
24:27
and of course this is niche to
24:28
everybody.
24:29
Um so here's my really crazy thing that
24:31
I'm about to say.
24:33
21 Royal.
24:36
>> Really?
24:36
>> Yeah.
24:37
>> Okay.
24:38
>> Because 21 Royal is an experience for up
24:41
to 12 guests.
24:43
It is a ca- like a hosted
24:47
um dining experience. There are multiple
24:49
courses, there is wine, there is
24:50
cocktails involved. You get to see um
24:53
the Dream Suite above Pirates of the
24:55
Caribbean. Um it is relatively lost. I
24:59
knew $18,000, but if you split that
25:01
between 12 people for that type of
25:02
experience, yes, it is incredibly
25:05
expensive. Yes, this isn't something
25:06
that most people are like, oh yes, let
25:08
me just
25:09
open up my checkbook and let me write
25:11
this. But, that is something like
25:15
something big that I 100%
25:18
think would be worth the money. Okay.
25:21
>> Um, I will say every person I know that
25:23
has done that has loved it.
25:25
>> Yep.
25:25
>> And said it was worth it. So, I I would
25:26
agree with that. I have not done that
25:28
because that's a lot of money
25:30
>> It's a lot of money.
25:31
>> to uh, validate. I mean, value and
25:33
validating are two very different
25:35
things.
25:36
Um, but no, I I could I could see that
25:38
one, I guess. But,
25:40
let us know what your five things are in
25:42
the comments. I think I'd be curious to
25:43
see. And um,
25:45
yeah, who knows. Speaking of comments,
25:49
I think it is time for some comments.
25:56
>> Comments, comments.
26:00
That is right. I love the part where it
26:01
clicks at the end.
26:02
>> Me, too.
26:03
>> Like, that's that's just such a good
26:04
extra little um,
26:06
>> Every time we come back from that, I
26:08
feel like you they can see me go
26:11
cuz I have to.
26:12
>> There you go.
26:12
>> For the There you go.
26:14
>> Um, all right, we're going to scroll
26:16
through the comments. If you have
26:17
anything you'd like us to respond to or
26:19
talk about, let us know. We'll stick
26:21
around for a few more minutes. I see uh,
26:23
set from Disneyland says one raise a
26:26
roys on purpose at Trader Sam's, chicken
26:29
dinner at Plaza Inn, absolutely standard
26:31
churro or Dole Whip, three for a t-shirt
26:34
or top that has your favorite character
26:37
or attraction.
26:37
>> I agree.
26:38
>> that cuz we got the the Muppet one.
26:41
Um,
26:41
and anything that costs quarters.
26:43
[laughter]
26:44
>> So, Pirate Red, Shrunken Ned, shooting
26:47
gallery.
26:48
>> it.
26:48
>> Yeah.
26:49
>> That's Orchestrion being up there. Oh,
26:51
yeah, absolutely. That's fantastic list.
26:54
That's
26:55
That's a very good. Um all right, let's
26:57
go back up to the top.
26:59
Um
27:00
When the X-Men and Fantastic Four can
27:02
one day finally join the Avengers, if
27:03
and when that is, like I thought we were
27:06
going to get news about that this
27:07
weekend and we really didn't. Like we
27:10
got acknowledgement that they exist cuz
27:12
of staff or staffing casting and
27:14
whatnot, but um
27:17
I am very curious to see
27:19
what ends up happening with that. Like
27:21
that will be interesting.
27:23
Um an Antarctic Muppet Show, who would
27:26
be the person?
27:27
>> Do the penguins get to show up?
27:29
>> The penguins will be in it, I'm sure.
27:30
Yes.
27:30
>> so.
27:31
>> Uh which which actor?
27:34
>> Uh
27:36
>> Paul Rudd.
27:37
>> Oh, that's good.
27:38
>> I don't know why. I just think he'd be
27:39
funny.
27:40
>> Um I would say Martin Short because he
27:41
did play um Jack Frost.
27:44
>> And on the flip side, having both of
27:45
them together would be very funny
27:48
as well.
27:49
>> That'd be great.
27:49
>> Like I I would love to see that. Um
27:51
Electric Mayhem's next album
27:54
that could win Grammy Awards for best
27:56
album be titled. I don't know what songs
27:58
they'd do. That's something we'll have
27:59
to think about.
28:00
Like that's that's a very good question.
28:02
Um I'm going to scroll down quickly a
28:04
little bit.
28:05
>> We are caught up on Strange New Worlds.
28:07
>> caught up on Strange New Worlds.
28:09
>> caught up as one episode you can be.
28:11
>> Mhm.
28:12
>> But
28:12
>> also watched the teaser for what's
28:14
coming the rest of the season and uh
28:17
next week's going to be interesting or
28:18
this week's going to be interesting. Um
28:20
Canadian tuxedo made of jeans in the
28:22
color gray. Eat There you go. Uh that
28:25
could have been a tease. I don't know.
28:27
Oh, we're caught up on
28:28
>> Wow.
28:29
>> on the uh
28:30
>> Now we're quiet.
28:31
>> the com- Who would have guessed that?
28:32
That never happens.
28:33
>> never happens.
28:34
>> like usually I'm racing through the
28:35
bottom of the comments because too many
28:37
are coming and then I'm like, oh, I
28:38
don't know what to do with myself and uh
28:41
all of that fun.
28:42
>> Everybody's tired from Comic-Con, I
28:43
guess.
28:43
>> And then then we get to gear up for Choc
28:45
Walk and D23.
28:49
I am curious with all of the Marvel news
28:51
that we got at Comic-Con, which is kind
28:53
of the traditional approach.
28:56
Um
28:56
how much Marvel like do we get a new
28:59
trailer at Comic? Maybe that's when
29:02

29:03
>> trailer comes is for that. Um it'll be
29:06
very interesting to see what ends up
29:08
coming out that's And there's other
29:10
movies obviously that could
29:13
have details shared about it, whether
29:14
it's Dato or um
29:16
>> Maybe Patrick Stewart shows up.
29:18
>> That'd be amazing.
29:20
I don't know. I I'd be totally cool with
29:22
that.
29:22
>> Murders in the Building episode of The
29:23
Muppet Show like when Mark Hamill was
29:25
Luke [laughter] Skywalker on The Muppet
29:26
Show.

29:32
the ultimate cross
29:34

29:36
the building is um
29:38

totally worth

watching and um
29:48
>> I'd be so good with that.
29:50
>> I think the fun part too is
29:53
deciding who that villain is going to be
29:55
for that episode cuz I feel like you'd
29:57
have to truncate it all into one
29:58
episode.
29:59
>> Uncle Deadly is the red herring.
30:00
[clears throat]
30:01
>> I'd really Yeah, well obviously. Um I'd

really like to see um

30:08
things and not the Only Murders side
