this and 00:49 Chuck is just being introduced to black 00:52 mirror he hadn't seen the boy may have 00:54 seen a couple episodes here and there so 00:56 I was excited so man you know black 00:58 mirror 00:58 you know we gotta watch this Chuck and 01:00 so Chuck would introduce to season five 01:03 of black mirror and I will allow him to 01:06 give his thoughts on episode one two and 01:10 three with no spoiler review we're just 01:13 gonna jump right into it okay yeah yeah 01:17 I'm not fan supposed to know off geek 01:21 probably watch anymore black mirror out 01:23 for this season um yeah just me anymore 01:27 bringing any more video yeah 01:34 it was so awkward what my wife oh but um 01:44 yeah what the first episode tell me how 01:46 to anthony mackie in it as a guy to play 01:48 man 2 housefull for Aquaman 01:50 oh yeah I know these guys okay so 01:53 they're all this they're doing the 01:54 episode oh here's like getting pretty 01:56 good they were doing video game stuff I 01:58 was getting into it and then just like 02:00 change don't go like oh I wasn't 02:04 expecting this um I'm gonna just 02:08 continue to get weirder as it can at the 02:11 movie continue that I was like I don't 02:14 if there was me by myself apart with the 02:16 finish tomorrow so close on next episode 02:19 so I can face tomorrow you loved it it 02:25 was the better of the three day I didn't 02:27 watch because of course the guys know 02:29 how to act because you know we see those 02:31 big blue big blockbuster movies I seen 02:34 the guy who plays black man so he was in 02:36 on that he's shown us on Netflix run 02:40 down I forget what's coming but the 02:44 music you know the music the music one 02:47 hello I was in it the other yeah what it 02:51 was calm 02:53 it wasn't that I already liked them in 02:57 there so okay but you know who the story 03:01 was cool of me definitely drawing you in 03:04 and you heard one powerfully and just to 03:07 kind of see what what did occur was like 03:09 kind of left field not my cup of tea but 03:12 you know maybe a lot of people didn't 03:13 like it a lot of a lot of twists and the 03:19 conclusion I didn't really feel happy 03:21 with the conclusion at all so it doesn't 03:24 love me it kind of left me what kind of 03:26 like the WHA 03:29 that tales from the crypt but they 03:32 always have like a bad ending 03:33 it's like tell his chance when the 03:35 curtain I was in their endings so it's 03:37 not it's kind of lonely that's like it 03:38 wasn't an innovation warning I know so I 03:42 was kind of like I'll just check the 03:44 next row for the next one's better and 03:46 then know the next there isn't something 03:50 that you as a man wanting wait where you 03:54 going as it definitely wasn't something 03:57 that that you as a married man want 04:02 about this at all no oh my old guys this 04:06 is gonna be bad this looks like more 04:09 vegetable watch the whole episode of 04:11 this okay this is gonna be some awkward 04:14 questioning over here just to show oh 04:19 man no games all plays men but uh yeah 04:26 when he let me put that thing when they 04:29 put a little sense 04:30 and he falls there I'm like I'm done 04:32 soon as I saw that part I'm like never 04:34 play that game you know pass out 04:37 somebody just smack him in the face oh 04:39 yeah I can that was that was like no 04:42 scary by itself before anything looks 04:46 look and and right on cue there Dee is 04:49 watching three at a time so that one 05:00 yeah 05:03 three of the three I definitely agree 05:06 that this one was the better I thought 05:09 the acting was well I thought the story 05:11 was compelling you know it was 05:13 interesting what they were what they 05:14 were going through very weird awkward 05:17 situation Dean we're talking about 05:20 Blackbeard episode one that you watched 05:24 with this you know that you and Chuck 05:26 have to talk about how to have some 05:28 conversations about yeah but the 05:35 situation was awkward you know the no 05:37 two best friends and then they're having 05:40 fun kind of you know messing around it's 05:42 very interesting though because it kind 05:45 of makes you think that that's kind of 05:46 how things could go in the future not 05:49 necessarily so much it's like best 05:51 friends doing that type of stuff but I 05:53 definitely could see a little of the 05:56 especi transsexual virtual reality like 06:03 basically yeah exactly you know I 06:10 definitely could see and virtual reality 06:12 because gets better and better and 06:14 better and I definitely see getting to a 06:16 point where you can start to have those 06:19 physical sensations you know from those 06:22 things I mean you already have chat 06:23 rooms where you have men that will 06:25 become women or or dating sites you know 06:28 and these are not people that I would 06:30 say are the the traditional example of 06:34 what you would call transsexual right 06:36 they're not dressing up as a woman and 06:38 going out to meet people as a woman they 06:41 are a man a hundred percent a man 06:43 but online they are just they have 06:45 created a female identity and I can see 06:48 that happening more and more so this is 06:51 something thing that like Mira tends to 06:53 to D says she's never playing Street 06:56 Fighter again the black mirror tends to 07:05 do a lot of social commentary on this 07:07 type of stuff however I will say overall 07:09 just as an episode I was a little 07:11 disappointed just because that's this 07:13 does not look black mirror is typically 07:15 about you know what I mean 07:17 like black mirror is really more like a 07:19 Twilight Zone type of thing 07:21 awkward situations people are getting 07:23 killed or killed you know it's 07:26 definitely more tritone as opposed to 07:28 more of a commentary on you know love in 07:33 that time stuff there is one other 07:34 episode like that it deals with fade 07:36 back to the virtual reality couple which 07:39 is pretty interesting as a virtual 07:41 reality Landsman couple but that's 07:42 really the only episode that I can think 07:44 of that really does goes on love and 07:49 emotions and relationships and not on 07:52 action things and you saw you know 07:54 Anthony Mackie on the cover and you know 07:56 that's black Captain America right now 08:01 oh no oh no cat oh no cat no then it 08:06 ended episode you like Jane cat 08:12 it's right it's funny huh I wonder how 08:15 they pitched it to him because for the 08:17 most part the two guys didn't have to do 08:19 anything they only had their actors 08:21 pretended to do it and they had two 08:23 other people to play there you know the 08:25 man the female only they had a stop but 08:27 at the end they did have to kiss like 08:29 one time it was funny how they did it 08:31 right the night right we gonna we go 08:33 alright okay and then it was hilarious 08:36 like okay are we cool now we're good 08:43 started fighting in stencil area so I 08:46 thought they overall the the quality of 08:49 the episode was good like I said I just 08:51 I guess for me for a black mirror 08:53 episode it wasn't really my cup of tea 08:55 I probably would've done better if this 08:57 were its own show but I can see why it 08:59 could be black bear alright well go 09:01 ahead and jump into season I'm sorry 09:03 episode 2 again if you were watching go 09:06 ahead and leave a comment here and let 09:08 us know what you thought about it I see 09:10 where king bill it's safe to eat loved 09:12 it episode 2 basically gets into a 09:18 gentleman I'm trying to describe it 09:21 without giving spoilers and now give 09:22 spoilers over time but ever so two gets 09:24 into air a gentleman who kidnapped 09:26 somebody that's working at our a place 09:29 called smithereens again that's in the 09:31 gunpoint ends up in the middle of a 09:35 field surrounded by police officers with 09:37 no guns I just say that cuz I know 09:39 you're gonna say stuff about it come out 09:42 and he uses the entire opportunity as a 09:45 way to get in contact with the CEO of a 09:49 particular company again smithereens as 09:55 a matter of fact I destroy heavily it's 09:57 probably the worst one of the worst 09:59 episodes of black mirror that I think I 10:02 mean is yeah it's been bad - you can 10:08 watch something up see but this crap 10:11 the whole thing the whole thing is just 10:14 a public's favorite is this a psh is a 10:16 public service announcement 10:18 this is don't text and drive don't be on 10:21 Facebook and your 10:22 right that was it that was that's what 10:25 the whole thing was about were back in 10:27 yo saw he was checking his quote-unquote 10:30 Facebook and drove into somebody and 10:33 killed his fiancee okay I don't have a 10:36 problem with that what's the thing 10:37 bigger PSA I don't have a problem with 10:39 the topic but if that's what it was 10:41 gonna be they could have done it in a 10:43 much better way 10:45 helling way no boring and stupid and 10:49 then they killed my boy well they don't 10:51 quote kill my boy the light what's his 10:55 name was a black dude in the back I 10:57 don't know oh no my black dude in the 11:00 back I'm like you didn't slap around get 11:03 no kidnap and then you start just eating 11:06 feelings he let you free I'm like it was 11:10 like first of all I had to watch all 11:11 this know happen to find out is just 11:14 because you know he he killed his wife 11:16 because he looked down on his phone 11:18 what's me I just don't understand like 11:21 it's not necessarily it's my fault it's 11:27 like I was drinking like but you can you 11:29 need to be able to you know control your 11:31 own self don't blame somebody else on 11:33 something that you know took off for 11:35 your attention 11:35 turn your damn phone off right it's you 11:38 know I mean I stopped looking at your 11:40 phone when you dropped me you know 11:42 what's wrong so I mean I didn't 11:44 understand the purpose of why he did 11:47 that I mean you should probably just 11:48 blame yourself 11:49 and I mean if he felt that I was in in 11:51 it you can't get over it I mean if you 11:54 think about it the Facebook or Facebook 11:58 was just as guilty as the manufacturer 12:00 of the car yeah I mean you gotta are you 12:02 gonna are you gonna call the CEO of the 12:05 car manufacturer if I'm if I had I know 12:08 it's my fault but if I hadn't been in 12:09 this car 12:10 I wouldn't direct it and and also and 12:13 the phone company too you know even 12:15 though he gets a choice to and if he 12:18 wants notifications to show up on his 12:20 phone 12:21 you don't have to be told what stuff 12:23 comes all he could just check it when he 12:24 goes on a check he he enabled his 12:26 notifications on his device so he could 12:29 get every little pop-up that comes up 12:31 and I guess I understand it doesn't make 12:33 addictive but I'm saying you gotta have 12:34 some 12:35 you know some clue as a adult was like 12:38 yeah you got make better choices and 12:39 this choice is something who I've 12:41 learned from that you know me to me he 12:45 could have used his life a lot more to 12:48 really into showed he grew from this 12:50 type of a horrible know it horrible know 12:54 thing to have in his life I mean yeah 12:56 it's tragic what happened but it's a 12:59 lessons you need to learn from that and 13:00 how they you think he was looking for 13:03 somebody to blame and looking for more 13:06 people to hurt which a lot of people in 13:07 this world today try to do and they 13:09 don't want to face up you know look in 13:11 the mirror they go hey I'm gonna kill 13:13 everybody cuz I'm not sitting you know 13:16 because people are like I didn't get 13:18 what I wanted in life so I'm gonna go 13:19 destroy people's lives 13:21 I miss cowards those are kind of me 13:24 exactly D says the the mirror get the 13:28 black dude it was so funny after we 13:33 watched it we were going through the 13:35 credits all slow to see what the black 13:36 do didn't die it was like it's 30 13:39 seconds left wanna go back to it and it 13:41 just won't slow it down maybe he'll show 13:42 up at the end of the credits nope you 13:45 never stood up again just that was me 13:48 that was the worst ending yeah it was a 13:51 stupid ending like cliffhangers are okay 13:54 mm-hmm but it should be less compelling 13:56 and makes you want to say huh I wonder 13:59 what happens like okay see you yesterday 14:01 was not the best cliffhanger ever but it 14:04 still makes me wonder I wonder what 14:05 happened here like I wonder how this 14:07 story unfolds that didn't I didn't feel 14:09 that way at all I just felt like this 14:12 story was incomplete and inconclusive 14:14 and it just ended in a dumb way and I 14:17 was disappointed but what do you mean we 14:19 don't know what happens that that's not 14:21 how that's not how a cliff anger s 14:23 wasn't a good clear finger you just 14:25 ended you just wrote the whole story 14:27 ripped off the last page for no turn 14:29 reason that's what that was 14:31 so we watched the third episode as well 14:34 and hopefully that was a vindication so 14:37 what was how did you like the third 14:39 episode two and I paired up so the more 14:46 pointless writing and 14:48 story the story was stupid to me I know 14:52 being finished completed all the way 14:54 through its kind of I was kind of zoning 14:56 out I was watching it because I was 14:58 bored you know I didn't like you know I 15:01 remember when I watched some before I 15:02 remember I saw one in my season three or 15:04 four and I saw episode I think he like 15:06 had a he went to like a episode like 15:08 Star Trek or something and basically it 15:13 was I enjoy and it was enjoyable and I 15:15 and there was another one that there was 15:17 a dick tip game that you know it's kind 15:20 of lounging out the first episode it was 15:21 like addictive computer game world and 15:23 they will all go into and like even 15:27 though it was interesting like all the 15:29 way through but I wasn't compelled to 15:34 finish it even you know so I don't I 15:38 didn't like any of these episodes not my 15:43 cup of tea I have to say I would agree 15:46 this one was definitely much more in 15:49 line with what black Miri is all about 15:52 you know technology something weird 15:54 somebody goes into a coma 15:55 even though definitely much more alive 15:59 and I actually like Miley Cyrus in this 16:02 you said it was my other side that's 16:10 myself okay yeah I'm not she did a 16:12 decent job playing actually herself I 16:15 wasn't a thoroughly impressed with her 16:16 playing the little cute little robot 16:18 thing but the of her playing herself was 16:20 but um it was a decent episode like I 16:25 would this would be like lower tier 16:27 black mirror but it wasn't bad like the 16:29 second episode but it just you know we 16:32 this if the other two episodes have been 16:35 like really great or much more 16:37 traditional than this episode probably 16:39 would have seemed better or kind of fit 16:40 here but because the the first episode 16:43 was good but not really black mirror and 16:45 the second episode was just bad then 16:47 this didn't help you know the ending of 16:52 this story again ruined it for me I 16:55 guess you didn't probably didn't see the 16:56 game but it's like there are if I can 16:59 control everything you know 17:02 and then always sooner she puts the girl 17:04 into the coma and then the girl whacks 17:05 it wakes up out of the coma she 17:07 confronts her on the odd doesn't see her 17:09 the arm is laying on the stage and is as 17:11 in control of everything she as she is 17:14 she's like what do you what is this but 17:21 this is not the arm this is not the one 17:23 that's been in control everything and 17:25 what are you talking about you don't 17:26 want to die 17:27 nobody's come out with a gun is this a a 17:31 van busting into the arena okay nobody 17:35 has a gun 17:36 calm down what are you talking about you 17:39 don't want to die 17:40 and then the very last thing but she 17:41 says he's like that's it 17:46 roll roll credits am i what do you mean 17:50 f it like that 17:51 what that's stupid who brought your time 17:53 off so yeah this whole season it's just 17:57 it's bad man that I'm disappointed 17:59 because again I'm really excited to buy 18:01 a black mirror I think black here it's 18:02 great and I just feel like the 18:04 showrunner it was a completely different 18:06 person and so I was disappointed I was 18:09 embarrassed because I wanted to share 18:10 this with Chuck I was very excited to 18:12 say hey man come on check it out oh look 18:14 look anthony mackie about to make 18:18 history r yeah and and he probably 18:21 didn't make this career you know poor 18:23 little bit probably in a bunch of movies 18:25 no yeah yeah so yeah anything else to 18:30 say about this sir no you've written 18:35 stop talking about this all right well 18:39 if you like what we did here
