Lanterns & Clayface Trailers, Can They Return Hype To DCU? : Weekly Geek FULL EPISODE

**Taylor Field** (0:00)
Let me tell you something. Oh, for our background.

**Travis** (0:03)
Yeah.
Hello, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to another edition of Weekly Geek. It's strange. Weekly Geek is GeekVerse episodes all around, going on multiple episodes with more than two people going on. But that's a good time.

**Dylan Luss** (0:16)
I ain't.

**Taylor Field** (0:21)
Is that me, or is that him?

**Dylan Luss** (0:22)
I think that's Travis just completely lagging over. He's introducing his own name.

**Taylor Field** (0:27)
Hell of a time. Well, just pass the buck.
Who are you?

**Dylan Luss** (0:33)
Hey, my name is Dylan Luss. Who are you?

**Taylor Field** (0:36)
I guess I'm still the program, Taylor Field.

**Dylan Luss** (0:40)
Still the program.

**Taylor Field** (0:43)
That's Travis is saying, news, weekly geeks, we're just popping off. Right now, Comic Con has been unpacking this weekend so far, and we got a lot of stuff just break down and to discuss. So it's going to be an absolute banger of a weekly geek break down here amongst us too currently. Look at that, we got Mr. Snell.
I think a baby just took out my Wi-Fi.

**Dylan Luss** (1:08)
These things happen. Has that ever happened to you? Has any of your babies ever ripped Wi-Fi cords out or anything like that?

**Taylor Field** (1:13)
No. I've instructed my babies to know the dangers of pulling the Wi-Fi out.

**Dylan Luss** (1:18)
So when they're really young, I don't think they can understand those concepts, can they?

**Taylor Field** (1:25)
Not particularly, but I mean if they're really young, I make sure that they just don't operate near the Wi-Fi. I mean, I try to picture what Travis did. Travis has a penned area, a fenced area. So does he put the Wi-Fi modem in there where the babies can access it?

**Dylan Luss** (1:43)
You got to keep it in the high security area.

**Taylor Field** (1:46)
That's right. Absolutely, you do.

**Dylan Luss** (1:47)
I was just playing Hitman and all the security camera offices, those are always in high secure areas. So no toddlers are going to actually walk in there and mess with that stuff. I got to sneak my way in.

**Taylor Field** (1:57)
No, that's right. Absolutely. But he's still pulling strings behind the curtains. He's wanting us to break down trailers first.
How about that?

**Dylan Luss** (2:12)
There's a lot of them today. So we really can't mess around here.

**Taylor Field** (2:16)
We got to get to it. Hopefully, he does find his way back into the fold here.
But yeah, we're going to start off with, I mean DC was popping off today. Well, I guess, yeah, the past little bit here. We got new Clayface, new Lanterns trailer. So Dylan, I'm curious. I feel like we can just dive into both here. I don't know unless you want to choose one or the other. But whatever you decide, how do you feel about these two trailers?

**Dylan Luss** (2:45)
I'll start with Clayface because I'm trying to think. I feel like maybe it was the Evil Dead, when we saw Evil Dead Burn. That was maybe the first time I saw a trailer for Clayface. And just tonally and the vibe of it, it was very different than what I was expecting because it's like a DC thing. So I thought it would be like a traditional superhero movie formula, but it's very much not. It's very much like a body horror sort of situation, which is pretty cool. I feel like that's a thing with these comic book movies is we don't always necessarily get a ton of variety in the types of things, especially with the MCU. It's very formulaic at this point in time.
So it's pretty cool that this is one of the earlier movies. I guess what? This is the third? Is it the third movie in this new DCU, Superman, Supergirl, and this? Or is there one I'm missing?

**Taylor Field** (3:27)
Ooh, why do I feel like there's one more?

**Dylan Luss** (3:30)
I mean, there's been shows and stuff.

**Taylor Field** (3:32)
There's been shows, yeah, but I think you're right. I think it's the third feature film.

**Dylan Luss** (3:36)
It's coming out in September, I believe, or October or something, so it's coming out pretty soon, so it's interesting to see. I mean, I imagine something like this, too, compared to a regular comic book movie. I imagine the budget's a lot lower. You don't probably have a lot less profit, but I think maybe something like that could be profitable and good for them in the long haul. We'll see what happens there. But I'm actually a big fan of this trailer and I guess the previous one. They're kind of the same to me, but I think the effects looked really good. I think it looks creepy, man, when Homey is cutting skin off his face in an airplane, in a live plane where there's some turbulence going on, like that is freaky stuff. It makes me a little bit squeamish. So I'm really liking the look of this movie. I think it looks pretty unique and cool.
