welcome to another exciting stirring edition of inside media weekly the show that cannot be stopped by sandy welcome to have bastos here on my left it's great that being here now i made it through the light welcome break out into song john travolta singing sandy oh ok let's let's jump right into all this tech news that happened this past week this there was other stuff going on which is the worse the hobbit part one rumor news the fact that steven kobe or supposedly has a cameo in it or the fact that the movie is rumored to have been cut has been pieced together  cut is two hours and fifty minutes long for part one of the story part i guess saga which is worse want to put in long scenes of new zealand or whatever or you know people slow motion hugging each other and a silly little ending of that film and that that did to really kill it and even batman and robin made money so you know what i think yeah if you look back at some of the what we consider the biggest flops you look at like wild wild west or waterworld i mean all those movies made made money you know  most of these big movies do and i obviously the first one is going to make yeah it's going to make so much trillion dollars but i don't know i just believe they're raising ticket prices to eighteen dollars just  n the last time you went bought newsweek at a news stand i have never purchased newsweek see my point i well i mean there might have been newsstands around for maybe two years of my life as well so i'm sure there is something i mean someone has to get there you know publications or something get your news a half second after it happens on twitter or a new machine recently really magazine you know hopefully people were waiting a week to get there so you know what they need to do is they need to really pioneer this and i mean there's obviously magazines  do the digital copies like the popular science is a very successful want to because they take it the step further they do they're not just taking a xerox copy or scanned copy of their physical thing and putting it in digital form they're making unique the way that you experience the way interact with it and that's what they really have to champion in order for it to be any kind of significance i think there's going to be something new every week if it is available to me in some kind of a sense we're we're going to be get very excited about a technology for a very short period of time and then that technology is over facebook has peaked and fallen kids this past week in my class were making fun of facebook it's stupid and more than likely most of us are still relatively using facebook but it is over even if it's phenomenal to have a very short shelf life right sad sad more sad actually this is i guess good news it's a court ruling out in california and it's good news court ruling out in california clearing the way for the justice league movie to be made and also scary enough to scare liza word to allow for the what's in them of the new super memory next year man of steel to actually be released because apparently what happened the background of the story and hollywood reporter had a really good write up about it and apparently his family has been fighting this and trying to say will she didn't have the right to do this whatever and and and so there was concern that the family was going to pull away the rights to superman the use of superman  schuster in the sequel family both were trying to terminate the rights that warner brothers had as a ransom i guess and they could go out sell them and make more money from someone else right but so basically i guess this is good news it has to be great news for the people doing ministerial for next year because there could have been this limbo where thing cannot be released away excited about a justice league potential movie obviously avengers did as kevin bastos predicted last year did absolutely huge god for crying out loud and then there's hawkeye who's pretty good with this is the like the alpha and the omega twentieth century i'm sorry fourteenth century skills and a god on the same but how did they the movie can be written well it can be excellent it doesn't matter who else is in or on the team you've got this group of superheroes in d c and i'm not a big d c fe and most of the d c movies have been tremendous flops spectacular flops and i think the criticism is too harsh on most of those but there have been some marvel bombs as well spider man three made a boatload of money and it was terrible as far as certainly those spider man go if the movie's good it'll be great if the movie's terrible it's going to take well i'm sorry it'll still make money but it's going to be you know a punchline of that and the the thing that d comics as a movie making industry really has to worry about is the future of this and there i want i say future i mean the next ten years of their movie making depends on this movie being a success so you're going to see a lot of money going into that right now in the comic book industry marvel has been a failure they are not doing the right things they're not getting the right acclaim readers are not staying with it but d c has been a great success phenomenal success over the last year and a half their future in the movie making industry and let's face it that's where the money is in this industry is going to determine what i was thinking your time on flops and some of that it was interesting too to think about again getting back to superman batman the the original versions that were were done the first time i guess really the comic books were big budget production value and were taken relatively seriously and it's interesting that of kind of poor movies but until they were kind of rebooted and did a good job and taking things much more seriously more darker but do you so i was an aside i guess going to make the justice league and then make supposedly they're going to make a ridged individual movie for each one of them afterwards that's innit i can i can see one being better and the other i mean they both have their advantages and disadvantages just as things advantages they get to base the characters they put in the justice league of the make a brand new character for that movie so i think all those pieces can fit in we're as marvel they had standalone movies in this side that's important together so they had to really have a great writer or something understood it which they did that actually incorporate all those things but the same time marvel is able to make so much more money because they had each individual movie building up to something and the thing they built up to was a huge big payoff yet again avengers film so there's a great advantage there i think what justice league is doing is a good idea because had they gone back to the surface and done a movie for each character and then combine them and i mean number one you've got possible failures there but you characters and three of them are good i can fire these three actors and start over on omega or heck maybe just eliminate them and put some other justice league characters in instead of make those movies and never make a martian manhunter movie or whatever and  the thing about the justice league characters are there are some iconic characters characters that people who i would say people know superman before they even know of comic books and i let alone the avengers or anything like that and there are characters that more than likely many comic book people have never heard of before so you've got some problems that are interesting quandaries to do i mean even if you look at the avengers films there was no hawkeye film there was no black widow film but those characters appeared as sideline characters and other things and also along the lines of that comic very replaceable there's no it to me and fillmore last movie even though it was in production and are now all the stuff never came to be because great ones iconic things that are told in you know two or three comic books that you stretch over two or three films boatloads of money and there are some iconic people who have done great storylines with and at  and i don't know enough about covert history and all that kind of stuff but is is that a concern when he's in a team environment you know that that he's going to be too much of the movie he's can be too much of the the the power behind what's going on or i mean is there obviously don't read the comic books for them but my understanding of how they can somewhat co exist is from my understanding with watching of a cartoon show that seems to have and the way to make this successful is you speak you have one big team but you can split them apart whereas superman would do the otherworldly things and batman instead home batman uses bring he would be like the genius detective and they really have an established in these movies but those movies are also done so i think i think the biggest point or the biggest cogged for this to be successful is how they incorporate batman with superman if they've decided to incorporate batman because batman is huge especially in the movie industry and the d c world is so huge and they've the batman movies grounded as being gritty and supposed to be realistic or believable as a superhero whereas superman and introducing them completely different type of world into the comic book industry is is a more about a gritty industry now i mean the world of chair looks to me like they're trying to get the gritty and that's that's what most comic book writing is become that realistic world and i think i tend to agree with you that splitting up will work but i think it's got to be more about the characters when you write an otherworldly character or an omnipotent character you've got to write someone who's a person inside of that as well who has real desires and interests and problems real world problems i mean he's not going to face some villain that's going to you know defeat him in an arm wrestling match but perhaps that person takes advantage of other ties to the world i mean one of the best things about superman thing was the second one was his weakness of the connection to the people on the planet i mean not so much that you kill superman or make him per vs but you find other weaknesses of the socio with people that character that problems those real world things that someone who is omnipotent can face those are those are te want to end on but let's talk about biggest holiday tech item that's of interest because obviously apple has done some big announcements which will maybe get to hopefully a little bit this week maybe next week and google and microsoft of but i don't know now you know when you're spending two hundred bucks on a device now to go back and spend you know thousand bucks well you know for the the full blown version is going to be going to be pretty pricey it's kind of hard to to justify that anymore from the i guess i don't know but something you know until the actual real surface comes out to have to see i mean that may be i think microsoft made a made a very big oversight and mistake with the launch of service i think the surface is going to be amazing and great product but they're going about the wrong way again they're not advertising it as windows eight or t one not the full version of the software that's coming out so all these people are rushing out to get it or think that they should be getting it now or buying a version that's not going to do what the surface is intended to be able to do in the form targets i think that's that's going to run into a big problem especially if i'm bad for the people that have to sell the thing because they're going to have a lot of people coming back saying why can't this do this just because they were naive when they purchased you know following this same right model exactly exactly i've had one home one yeah how come i can't print from this you know i thought this was supposed to be a laptop you know those kind of things but that being said i  pods or oh i don't know i think i've had maybe a tremendous misstep and my prediction might not i'm predicting it will sell a lot of units but again i'm thinking i'm apple has lent itself to being competitive and they're giving up that hedge over the last three years people were buying anything else and now i think you are going to see a lot of people buying other things because they're going to look at and go it's the same thing but smaller or it's the same thing but thinner so you're
