"Much like Aquaman 2, this EFAP was dropped with little to no fanfare.

@@kllwtt Yeah I'm glad my generation taught me the ways of Zaza before the ways of Skibidi. Everybody looks at Gen Z like we're gunna turn sour, but we're just trauma cases who got raised by stoner millennials and Xbox live chatrooms. We're messed up, but we make sense. These gen alphas are the betas of the generations, that's who you really gotta worry about. I grew up on Facebook and TH-cam and if anyone thinks I'm messed up, the next gen got raised on Twitter and TikTok. It's all downhill from here, Gen X might unironically be the peak generation.
"Look guys don't give up." "Yeah. If we give up, bad stuff might happen." "And bad stuff isn't good!" "But often, not bad stuff can be good stuff, and that makes things better maybe" "Yeah!" "Yeah!" "Yeah we're the good guys!"
Even the Mummy 2 did that 'mirror' ending. Rick told Evie to escape but she helped him up the cliff, whereas Imhotep asked Evil Lady to help him but she ran. Whereupon Imhotep let himself fall.
Man I can still remember that look in Imhotep's eyes when she did that. Poor guy looked more crushed than a simp getting the cold shoulder from his favorite e-thot.
This is actually quite remarkable. I don't think there ever been a movie universe that's been left so thoroughly in shambles. It's biggest success (Wonder Woman) was dragged through the dirt by its sequel, its core tent-pole movie has two mutually exclusive and equally contentious versions (and because of development malarkey, neither of them is fully in continuity with the rest of the universe), the timeline and cast have been retconned in a vague and unspecific manner, meaning no one really knows what's canonical and who plays which character anymore, and then the entire cinematic universe ends with a mostly insular nothing-burger of a movie. And all of this based on a nearly century old, iconic, mega-popular franchise that should've made money hands over fist in the billions. We live is a crazy timeline.
3:03:44 Fringy: "And Manta loses his powers, because at this point I guess Kordax has decided 'you're a cuck'" made me legitimately burst into laughter.
That’s usually better. Movies I want to watch I don’t watch immediately or for months, so I don’t watch the EFAP to avoid spoilers and then forget about it or lost interest.

2:29 This is the same thing that happened with Thor. Buff, himbo, dude-bros are in, and stoic, muscular kings are not a thing right now in Hollywood writing.
@@tevenpowell8023I mean literally there’s not much of a difference but i feel like there’s different connotations. Buff almost implies a level of himbo simplicity, muscular implies it’s almost incidental and a result of discipline. I feel like “muscular” characters still have the ability to be interesting and complex. “Buff” characters are used only for their looks.
Because a "dude-bro" isn't "threatening" to the betas in Hollywood. He's a comedic character. A "stoic king" should be taken seriously and honestly, and is inherently dominant. And those things are feared by current modern "woke cinema".
@@stonebaxter Nah, I think it's becaise they're easier to write for untalented writers. Just take your average contemporary dudebro and take that personality to 11. And I wouldn't even mind if it wasn't overdone. But it is. So I do.
@@H20No I wasn't really trying to make a distinction, but I like your point of the difference being that a buff guy has muscles for vanity while a muscular guy has it for discipline and strength. A himbo is the male bimbo and what makes a woman a bimbo when smart women can be pretty too? It's the intelligence and maturity which also enhances her attractiveness while a bimbo is shallow attractiveness on a purely physical (and temporary) level.

2:04:48 As a child of the late '80s/early '90s, referring to pizza as "'za" was absolutely a thing. I heard it used semi-regularly for a year or two, and the usage was somewhat popularized by TMNT (as Metal found). It was as cringy then as it was now, very much a "hello fellow children" thing, used by corpos and formerly-hip adults.
Reminds me of when some people used to say ‘Suh dude?” As ‘what’s up, dude?”.. Mostly LA Cali coastal people, so it makes sense why that same cancer spread to ‘pizza” there too… o.-.o
Well since they’re saying he wants “A burger, Guinness, and za” It must be slang for marijuana. I’ve seen memes calling it “Zaza” before. And since he already has a burger, smoking weed with his meal makes more sense.
My theory for why movie like aquaman exists basically boils down to a fear of the cellphone. Studio execs have this idea in their head that if they don't constantly keep the story moving at a breakneck pace, the audience will pull out their phone and at that point you can never get them back. Hence why you have action scenes on schedules as opposed to whether or not they fit the plot, pointless jokes to fill the silence, inappropriate jokes spoiling heavy moments that need time to properly develop, 'quirky' being falsely considered a character trait, etc. The most common complaint you'll hear an idiot make about a good movie is 'boring'.... they can't articulate what they even mean by that in any meaningful way, they just know the story went over their head so they checked out. Which is ironic, because most of the best movies ever are full of quite moments of tension building or character development that draws the audience in so make the story land properly, but somehow still the idiots opinion seems to be dictating modern corporate movie making. I think this is especially pronounced with Marvel and DC, because both franchises have long been under the control of people largely with no backround in the entertainment industry. They frankly don't know how to filter out the worthless feedback, and thus you get movies like Aquaman 2, which seems tailor made to be running on a second monitor while the viewer is more interested in the videogame on the primary.
Patrick Wilson is the best thing about this movie. And when they were talking about Aquaman not wanting to be king and whatever I thought they were setting it up for Orm getting the throne back at the end of the movie.
It would the undo the ending of the 1st film if aquaman gave up the throne. Also orm murdered one of the fish kings in the 1st film so he is a criminal.
I remember the impact Aquaman's first episode from the Justice League Cartoon had in me. The "arm" and "baby" scene was shocking to my younger self. Aquaman was a tough and arrogant king but he loved his people and he wasn't needlessly violent and he wasn't a warmonger.
3:09:51 ATLA did it better with admiral zhao. I think the point in aquaman 2 based on their description is that manta is so prideful that he would refuse the help of aquaman out of principle. He would rather die than accept aquaman as his savior. I don’t know mantas exact character but to accept help then backstab or commit suicide by head butting the person helping you up like in gta seems more the character of a psychopath not just a generally evil thing that every evil character should do. In ATLA it was sort of the same thing where zhao and zuko were similar in their desire to capture the avatar. Zuko was still willing to help his adversary even though they were trying to kill eachother moments before, but zhao would rather die to the spirit he tried to kill than to accept zukos help.
I like how calling pizza "Zah" is so stupid that it made them resort to pointing fingers immediately. Is it Australian? Surely it's an American thing. No, must be the fault of the young whippersnappers.
Yeah, ironically it was 80s California slang, but never really caught on. You're more likely to find parodies or critiques of it than straightforward usages.
Pizza being called 'Za is typically affiliated with Surfers, either on the California coast or Hawaiian beaches. They would end their days of 'thrashing surf' by 'gnaring some za' if my grasp of their lexical deviations are accurate.
This movie felt more like a Captain Planet episode than an Aquaman movie. Just put Jason Mamoa in grey makeup and green hair, give a couple other characters some elemental powers and you've pretty much got it.
Do you think that they were testing the waters for people to cry out, "If only this was a Captain Planet movie!" because I think it may have been a cry from the studio "We want to make a Captain Planet movie."
@@DaKdawg Could be. I have a similar theory that Fast&Furious is going to be used to piggyback a Megas XLR movie at some point. As insane as that series is getting, a giant robot with a car for a head fighting aliens from the future ain't far off.
I really need at 2:04:39, the "Za" portion of the stream to be clipped by efap highlights. . . I thought it was a small thing as I've NEVER heard people call Pizza Za before. . . then I mentioned it to my friends individually and. . . they apparently regularly use it. AHHH
I will always reference that Aquaman once reveals he doesnt talk to fish, he uses his powers to override the part of their brains that allow the fish to have free will. And forces them to do his bidding. In the same interview Aquaman reveals he can also do this to humans and refuses to do so. ((Obviously not always true in ever version. But it was directly addressing the "you talk to fish" claims)) even since 1982 aquaman could control anything that evolved from sealife, including humans, Martians, and KRYPTONIANS. Saying he talks to fish is highly inaccurate
21:45 I instantly thought the Real World Metropolis skit in Robot Chicken when Aquaman talks to fish and they don't listen.. "ANSWER ME, YOU LITTLE BITCHES"
It's pretty hilarious that a man having baseless accusations that are easily proven wrong thrown at him will destroy his career and see him removed from anything he's connected to. But a woman being proven to be a lying, abusive psychopath in one of the most televised, publicized and talked about trials in history will still get work. Despite being awful, I suppose we can give Water 2 : Drip Harder credit for allowing us something to point to when talking about the nonsense double standards.
On the topic of falling and landing on various things, you would actually want to aim for snow over basically any other option that you might see below. Airmen during WW2 who were forced to bail out without a parachute were able to survive falls of many thousands of feet with only minor injuries just by landing in deep snow.
I assumed the Topo was on guard duty, since his reveal comes right after the Dr's exposition dump that ends with "be careful, we have no idea what kind of security measures they have."
- Aquaman is a better dad than Han Solo and Indiana Jones - A great example of combining drama and comedy would be the scene in *“Top Gun: Maverick”* where Top Gun Maverick and Top Gun Iceman have a meaningful conversation about the kind of pilot Top Gun Maverick is VS the kind Top Gun Maverick the Navy needs. The scene ends with a joke that adds levity without detracting from the emotional weight because it’s related to the subject discussed and the nature of the bond between the characters _”Who’s the best pilot?”_ - Why use sea horses if Aquaman can swim faster than them? - *ORM 2024!!!* _Make Aquaman Great Again_ - Vulko dies of a severe case of “Couldn’t Reach an Economic Agreement Itis” - The Exposition Trident allows -Sauron- AquaZombie to possess the evil man, and create Toxic Mount Doom out of an extant volcano. Don’t worry, the “Heat Shields” will prevent EYES from seeing it - NO ONE refers to the villain as “Black Manta”, they just say “Manta”. I wonder why… :Kappa: - Evil Man makes very clear that he wants to destroy Arthur and his family. Yet they leave the baby (and HEIR to the throne) with an unarmed Boba Fett at a lighthouse instead of the hi-tech Atlantean army at the underwater fortress. - -Wakanda- Atlantis opens up to the world and Arthur goes _“I am __-Iron Man-__ Aquaman”_ - Klaus Schwab approves Orm’s dietary choices
I kinda hate the rep Aquaman has even tho hes actually super powerful because hes not as well known as Superman. Aquaman doesnt only have powers over water when hes in it. He has water magic that he learns from Mera. His trident is magical and if he throws it, it will reaapear in his hand. It also amplifies his magic. Everyone in the JL has some sort of way to combat Superman in case he goes nuts; Batman has a kryptonite ring he always keeps on, Wonder Woman has a magical unbreakable lasso, and Aquaman is magical sea superman.
Yugi: "So, Dartz, you're from Atlantis, right?" Dartz: "That's correct. Ah am from the beautiful, ancient city of Atlantis." Yugi: "So, can you talk to fish?" Dartz: "What?" Yugi: "Can you talk to fish? Aquaman could do it. Are you...." Dartz: "Ah am not a freaky fishguy!"
It never ceases to impress me how you guys consistently rewrite the movie better off the cuff. Rag's' cockroach joke rewrite and Black Manta's death rewrite stand out, but it happens over and over. Legends, all of you.
I like how the title for this stream refers to the film as 'Aquaman 2: The Lost Kingdom' instead of 'Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom', 'cuz, much like the film itself, in the end, it's doesn't really matter. XD
Funny getting this and Godzilla -1.0 when DC and Godzilla are having a crossover where he’s in Atlantis fighting Tiamat(leviathan kaiju) and Issue #1 Godzilla’s atomic breath killed Superman
Only time I've ever heard pizza called "za" is in really old episodes of TMNT. It might have been an 80s thing? Or something people in the 80s thought was a cool thing that kids say.
Hey! Sometimes i make the mistake of reading the newest comments and see complaining which makes me sad - you guys are great thanks for the content and hope you have a nice weekend😊
I think comedy relies a lot more on the unexpected than drama. When either is repeated it becomes less effective however I think the comedy dilutes much quicker.
My friend, coming back from a screening of Aquaman 2, immediately led with how Mera makes Arthur drink baby piss. This was repeated when I tried to insinuate it must be a joke. I still didn't fully believe it. Are you guys pranking me, are you in cahoots
I just watched saw2004 for the 1st time for Efap movies. Lots of beloved actors of mine in their. Benito from the sheild, Monica from conair and that dax shepard show, mckenzie from good wife, Emerson from arrow and person of interest, the writer leign whannel, the villain from X3 and Rushhour, and i loved mandy or whoever the punk rocker chic was
The greatest downside of pre-recorded FAPs is waiting for chat to let the hosts know to quit the incessant keyboard clicking, and it never happens, and you finally look over and see there is no chat, and you've wasted a bunch of your daily allotted hope on something that was never going to happen.
Around 1:25:00 all I can think about is how the EFAP guys are describing the first Thor movie from 2011. I did not see Aquaman 2, but it sounds like the creators should have followed the script of that movie instead of what they did.
'Za, short for pizza, is like a really embarrassing west coast thing. If anyone says it unironically, they are automatically carbon-dated to be at least 60.
"za" for Pizza is a Harry Butcher reference for the Dresden books, Dresden is referred to as the "za-lord" by the pixie things - he pays them with pizza.
It’s fitting that they got Boba Fett in a movie where he’s surrounded by water
He grew up surrounded by water😲

So by removing rags we solve world hunger? That's a W
I'm sitting here like, did someone use Jay Mac as a pfp? That's funny
DCEU's final breaths didn't deserve a live EFAP lmao, this'll be good
Aquaman being lame dates back to 90's era Cartoon Network poking fun at his Superfriends incarnation.
Back when nerds could poke fun at nerd stuff, but now what was a joke has been canonized and it's not so funny anymore. Just...so tiring.
I remember the impact Aquaman's first episode from the Justice League Cartoon had in me. The "arm" and "baby" scene was shocking to my younger self.
Aquaman was a tough and arrogant king but he loved his people and he wasn't needlessly violent and he wasn't a warmonger.
My favorite aqua man was from Batman brave and bold where he was actually kind of similar to the one portrayed in this film
Motherfucking Superfriends for life, bitches! *Nerdy drive by sounds*
Fun fact.
The guy playing the evil zombie lich aquaman is the same actor for Euron from GOT.
Once again he missed a chance to go full evil sea man.
Shame
3:09:51 ATLA did it better with admiral zhao. I think the point in aquaman 2 based on their description is that manta is so prideful that he would refuse the help of aquaman out of principle. He would rather die than accept aquaman as his savior. I don’t know mantas exact character but to accept help then backstab or commit suicide by head butting the person helping you up like in gta seems more the character of a psychopath not just a generally evil thing that every evil character should do. In ATLA it was sort of the same thing where zhao and zuko were similar in their desire to capture the avatar. Zuko was still willing to help his adversary even though they were trying to kill eachother moments before, but zhao would rather die to the spirit he tried to kill than to accept zukos help.
Great breakdown! Fringy did a great job covering everything clear and concisely!
I like how calling pizza "Zah" is so stupid that it made them resort to pointing fingers immediately.
Is it Australian? Surely it's an American thing. No, must be the fault of the young whippersnappers.
What's next? Calling croquettes Crocs? 🤢🤢🤢
Yeah, ironically it was 80s California slang, but never really caught on. You're more likely to find parodies or critiques of it than straightforward usages.
Pretty sure it’s for weed. Which makes more sense anyway. Seen people call it “zaza” before. But looked it up and apparently it’s also called “Za”
My life is like a typical Efap, just Breaking down and catching up.
Pizza being called 'Za is typically affiliated with Surfers, either on the California coast or Hawaiian beaches. They would end their days of 'thrashing surf' by 'gnaring some za' if my grasp of their lexical deviations are accurate.
This movie felt more like a Captain Planet episode than an Aquaman movie. Just put Jason Mamoa in grey makeup and green hair, give a couple other characters some elemental powers and you've pretty much got it.
Do you think that they were testing the waters for people to cry out, "If only this was a Captain Planet movie!" because I think it may have been a cry from the studio "We want to make a Captain Planet movie."
@@DaKdawg Could be. I have a similar theory that Fast&Furious is going to be used to piggyback a Megas XLR movie at some point. As insane as that series is getting, a giant robot with a car for a head fighting aliens from the future ain't far off.
Imagine if Luke just made a snarky quip upon seeing his home incinerated.
They opened with this in The Force Awakens and how did that trilogy go?

Slow-Mo Nooooo!

Oh, they'll be fine.
Fringy and his f*cking keyboard
Ah yes! The last of the “DCEU” how it was allowed to limp on for this long is incredible.
I really need at 2:04:39, the "Za" portion of the stream to be clipped by efap highlights. . .
I thought it was a small thing as I've NEVER heard people call Pizza Za before. . . then I mentioned it to my friends individually and. . . they apparently regularly use it. AHHH
I like how we got an Aquaman 2 EFAP rather than an EFAP Movies Aquaman.
I'm pretty sure the one meme was working on got corrupted somehow. It sucks, would have liked to have seen that.
I don't.
Large forgotton civilisation with tentacle monsters in Antarctica? We're borrowing pretty heavily from a certain Mr Lovecraft here...
It sounds like Aquaman 2 had the Thor: Love and Thunder treatment, but was able to have one moment stick making it better by default.
I will always reference that Aquaman once reveals he doesnt talk to fish, he uses his powers to override the part of their brains that allow the fish to have free will. And forces them to do his bidding. In the same interview Aquaman reveals he can also do this to humans and refuses to do so. ((Obviously not always true in ever version. But it was directly addressing the "you talk to fish" claims)) even since 1982 aquaman could control anything that evolved from sealife, including humans, Martians, and KRYPTONIANS. Saying he talks to fish is highly inaccurate
Tbf I’m not surprised they don’t address this, makes aqua man wayyy too op
8:00 “I’m a little sad that my species produced it”-Rag’’’s
Wait, I didn’t know that dogs made Aquaman 2!
Explains its “ruff” development
Is watching a review of a movie I don’t intend to watch the modern version of window shopping? 😂
21:45 I instantly thought the Real World Metropolis skit in Robot Chicken when Aquaman talks to fish and they don't listen.. "ANSWER ME, YOU LITTLE BITCHES"
TAKE up your mother's trident!!!!
It's pretty hilarious that a man having baseless accusations that are easily proven wrong thrown at him will destroy his career and see him removed from anything he's connected to. But a woman being proven to be a lying, abusive psychopath in one of the most televised, publicized and talked about trials in history will still get work.
Despite being awful, I suppose we can give Water 2 : Drip Harder credit for allowing us something to point to when talking about the nonsense double standards.
On the topic of falling and landing on various things, you would actually want to aim for snow over basically any other option that you might see below.
Airmen during WW2 who were forced to bail out without a parachute were able to survive falls of many thousands of feet with only minor injuries just by landing in deep snow.
I assumed the Topo was on guard duty, since his reveal comes right after the Dr's exposition dump that ends with "be careful, we have no idea what kind of security measures they have."
- Aquaman is a better dad than Han Solo and Indiana Jones
- A great example of combining drama and comedy would be the scene in *“Top Gun: Maverick”* where Top Gun Maverick and Top Gun Iceman have a meaningful conversation about the kind of pilot Top Gun Maverick is VS the kind Top Gun Maverick the Navy needs. The scene ends with a joke that adds levity without detracting from the emotional weight because it’s related to the subject discussed and the nature of the bond between the characters _”Who’s the best pilot?”_
- Why use sea horses if Aquaman can swim faster than them?
- *ORM 2024!!!* _Make Aquaman Great Again_
- Vulko dies of a severe case of “Couldn’t Reach an Economic Agreement Itis”
- The Exposition Trident allows -Sauron- AquaZombie to possess the evil man, and create Toxic Mount Doom out of an extant volcano. Don’t worry, the “Heat Shields” will prevent EYES from seeing it
- NO ONE refers to the villain as “Black Manta”, they just say “Manta”. I wonder why… :Kappa:
- Evil Man makes very clear that he wants to destroy Arthur and his family. Yet they leave the baby (and HEIR to the throne) with an unarmed Boba Fett at a lighthouse instead of the hi-tech Atlantean army at the underwater fortress.
- -Wakanda- Atlantis opens up to the world and Arthur goes _“I am __-Iron Man-__ Aquaman”_
- Klaus Schwab approves Orm’s dietary choices
Did Black Manta really say he’d burn Aquaman’s kingdom to ash? The Atlantean Kingdom at the bottom of the ocean? Burn? To ash? Really?
Who has the keyboard going so crazy?
Watching EFAP is my only life in joy.
If this movie made a billion dollars there would be a new DC movie announced: "Orm: Fishman out of water"
Remember, the sea is always right.
Whatever writer was in charge of Black Manta must have loved Captain Planet as a child.
I kinda hate the rep Aquaman has even tho hes actually super powerful because hes not as well known as Superman.
Aquaman doesnt only have powers over water when hes in it. He has water magic that he learns from Mera. His trident is magical and if he throws it, it will reaapear in his hand. It also amplifies his magic.
Everyone in the JL has some sort of way to combat Superman in case he goes nuts; Batman has a kryptonite ring he always keeps on, Wonder Woman has a magical unbreakable lasso, and Aquaman is magical sea superman.
Why is Yugioh’s version of Atlantis less incoherent than a story all about it
Yugi: "So, Dartz, you're from Atlantis, right?"
Dartz: "That's correct. Ah am from the beautiful, ancient city of Atlantis."
Yugi: "So, can you talk to fish?"
Dartz: "What?"
Yugi: "Can you talk to fish? Aquaman could do it. Are you...."
Dartz: "Ah am not a freaky fishguy!"
I shall use the power of the Ori-chal-co-ma-los, may-yun!
It never ceases to impress me how you guys consistently rewrite the movie better off the cuff. Rag's' cockroach joke rewrite and Black Manta's death rewrite stand out, but it happens over and over.
Legends, all of you.

I like how the title for this stream refers to the film as 'Aquaman 2: The Lost Kingdom' instead of 'Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom', 'cuz, much like the film itself, in the end, it's doesn't really matter. XD
Aquatic Park 2: Lost Kingdom
Rags, "They've shot themselves in the foot too many times, and now they're out of toes."
I am flabbergasted no one had heard of zza with how old that slang it is
Funny getting this and Godzilla -1.0 when DC and Godzilla are having a crossover where he’s in Atlantis fighting Tiamat(leviathan kaiju) and Issue #1 Godzilla’s atomic breath killed Superman
All I want to know is did they kill aquababy?
Ask Colonel Quaritch. Or the Fire Nation.
I want to know Black Manta is autistic like the comics made him
Only time I've ever heard pizza called "za" is in really old episodes of TMNT. It might have been an 80s thing? Or something people in the 80s thought was a cool thing that kids say.
Should've called it Aquaman II: The Meltdown.
Edit: Dammit, Rags beat me to it!
Hey! Sometimes i make the mistake of reading the newest comments and see complaining which makes me sad - you guys are great thanks for the content and hope you have a nice weekend😊
Totally agree that Orm should have thrown one of the tridents.
I think the amount of views on this episode really reflects the interest (or lack thereof) in this movie.
Wonder if anyone is going to start a campaign for the 'Heard Cut'
The first and only time I heard pizza called 'zah' (before today) is in the Canadian TV series 'Slings and Arrows' (2003)
I think comedy relies a lot more on the unexpected than drama. When either is repeated it becomes less effective however I think the comedy dilutes much quicker.
was expecting rags's's to call the octopus '008'
Mauler you were wondering who thought aquaman 2 was worse than the Marvel's. That was ItsaGundam on open bar.
My friend, coming back from a screening of Aquaman 2, immediately led with how Mera makes Arthur drink baby piss. This was repeated when I tried to insinuate it must be a joke. I still didn't fully believe it.
Are you guys pranking me, are you in cahoots
And they dare to suggest there's no comedy in this movie. Making Amber Heard urine operator is the best meta comedy in superhero genre so far.
I just watched saw2004 for the 1st time for Efap movies. Lots of beloved actors of mine in their. Benito from the sheild, Monica from conair and that dax shepard show, mckenzie from good wife, Emerson from arrow and person of interest, the writer leign whannel, the villain from X3 and Rushhour, and i loved mandy or whoever the punk rocker chic was
"Aquaman's gots kids?!?!"
The greatest downside of pre-recorded FAPs is waiting for chat to let the hosts know to quit the incessant keyboard clicking, and it never happens, and you finally look over and see there is no chat, and you've wasted a bunch of your daily allotted hope on something that was never going to happen.
Around 1:25:00 all I can think about is how the EFAP guys are describing the first Thor movie from 2011. I did not see Aquaman 2, but it sounds like the creators should have followed the script of that movie instead of what they did.
'Za, short for pizza, is like a really embarrassing west coast thing. If anyone says it unironically, they are automatically carbon-dated to be at least 60.
The Big Gun??!! I thought we asked for The Good Package!
2:05:00 Isn’t Zaza also slang for the smokable weeds?🤔
Yes
Orm was a real John Walker
2:04:48 I have only heard "za" for pizza once in Family Guy.
For those of us who didn't watch this or care about the movie, I'm hoping they pull an Expend4bles and talk about something else
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I think the only time I've seen pizza referred to as ZZA in a movie was tenacious d and the pick of destiny
Really just floated past that rags pun huh guys?
It can be that way as the podcast ebbs and flows
Dogs don't understand figurative language he doesn't know what a pun is. Trust me, my dog told me all their weaknesses.
Calling Pizza "za" is from the 80s-90s, stereotypically cool characters would say it
"za" for Pizza is a Harry Butcher reference for the Dresden books, Dresden is referred to as the "za-lord" by the pixie things - he pays them with pizza.
Aquaman should’ve teamed up with Captain Planet in this movie
