Max_Svalgard 2 Posted February 17, 2017 The reason that Xander has the xXx tattoo is, as Gibbons says "You have three X's tattooed on the back of your neck. I think that's rather appropriate, since you're looking at three strikes. Grand theft auto, reckless endangerment, and that little bridge stunt of yours makes you a three-time loser. Maybe you ought to call yourself "Triple X." But if you do what I want, I'll make all your little recent criminal transgressions go away and let you get back to that pathetic excuse of a life." It is that moment that he offers Xander to join his spy cell. It is only because of Xander that it is called "The Triple X Program" and when Darius Stone is chosen it is because he is of a similar mentality(He is serving time in Jail, 9 years of a 20 year sentance and is a former Navy Seal...A perfect candidate.). Edit: Also every lead agent of The Triple X Program has a specialty. Xander's just so happens to be extreme sports, Darius' is hijacking and souping up cars/tanks and diving(He's a navy seal after all) and Neymar's is Soccer. Double Edit: Just got to the end of the episode and they go over the Tattoo. 2 Share this post Link to post

bella_008 188 Posted February 17, 2017 I know Hollywood can be incredibly ageist and sexist when it comes to casting actresses who are over 25, but the age gaps for Vin Diesels love interests in this movie are beyond insane. The age differences Nina Dobrev - 21 years Deepika Padukone - 19 years Hermione Corfield (British Chick)- 25 years Ariana Arevalo (village girl from the beginning)- 25 years Like seriously WTF - also all brunettes not a blonde in the bunch. Nina Dobrev was great but now I can totally see that scene in my head with June playing it and it would've been 100% funnier. 10 Share this post Link to post
bella_008 188 Posted February 17, 2017 Just on a physics thing, even on the zero gravity planes NASA uses to train, you only get about 30 seconds of zero g's per dip. This film has them being weightless for about 10 minutes also any sort of fighting in zero g's is super ineffectual because you don't have any force behind you. 7 Share this post Link to post

ZARATHUSTRA 245 Posted February 17, 2017 Takeaways: 1. This movie made $100 million in Mainland China in 6 days. Such is the power (and awesomeness) of Donnie Yen. If you're new to Donnie Yen check out his scene in Hero. 2. Vin Diesel is King of the Douchebags and Zuckerberg is just like all the other douchebag nerds I've met. 3. "When did this turn into beautiful world?" and all I could think of was Devo's cathartic (and strangely prescient) masterpiece: 4. June must have been raised Catholic because 'eating-sushi-in-a-cinema' guilt sounds like a classic example of Catholic guilt 5. Does anyone know the clip they played at the end? There's music throughout so I couldn't tell what was happening. 3 Share this post Link to post
LTL 154 Posted February 17, 2017 When Paul announced this, a new film was the pick.. I was disappointed that it's a NEW movie... and I had to go to the theater . COMPLETELY forgot that I already seen it . It was that forgettable. I feel EXACTLY like June. 8 Share this post Link to post
NathanGordon 1096 Posted February 17, 2017 June wastes no time reminding us why we love her so much. This House Bunny sushi tangent is classic JDR. And I love how Jason always slips up and reveals his nerd power level -- "They were trying to Greedo-shot-first this scene!" 6 Share this post Link to post
newjoshcity 3 Posted February 17, 2017 First, if the threat is 250,000 satellites which they plan on dropping 1 a day, satellites will be raining down for nearly 685 years. Second, when we get our xXx/Fast and Furious crossover, I demand the movie ends with xXx and Dom having so much respect for each other that they gift each other their jacket and necklace as they part ways. 3 Share this post Link to post
pscudese 701 Posted February 17, 2017 What I found truly amazing, is that within the first 3 minutes, this film deposits the idea that super heroes exist in this universe. Neymar's title card says that he was under the assumption he was being recruited for The Avengers. So I ask: 1) What ability does Neymar bring to the table when The Avengers is made up of folks like a Greek God or a Giant Green Monster. Is it simply for the fact that he has fancy footwork? What would be his superhero alter ego... Dropshot? 2) And if The Avengers exist, why is the government entrusting this over-the-hill, X-sports douchebag when they can reach out to Tony Stark or Capt America? Oh and let's not unpack the mind bending reality that Nick Fury now has a functioning right eye. So this raced through my head and I knew it was only going to get worse... for the better!

Is it simply for the fact that he has fancy footwork? What would be his superhero alter ego... Dropshot? The Avengers literally have a dude that just shoots a bow and arrow. Their standards can't be that high. (PS - you know I love Hawkeye, Taylor Anne. Please don't hurt me.)

Cakebug Tranch 6873 Posted February 17, 2017 Okay but June yelling, "It's a coat!" over and over is so far my favorite moment of this episode I particularly loved how the boys doubled down on 'jacket' despite June correcting them. 6 Share this post Link to post
Cakebug Tranch 6873 Posted February 17, 2017 Correction on Live audience member comment: When Xander puts the TV on for the villagers, this is not the Brazil vs. Germany World Cup game. First, Germany beat Brazil 7-1 in the World Cup semi-final of 2014, not the final. Second, the team on the screen against Brazil are wearing dark jerseys, which Germany often do in international play, but for that World Cup game, they wore red and black hoops, as pictured here: So, it isn't the same game. Also, if we are to believe that the satellite crash and the soccer game are happening at the same time, if it were the 2014 World Cup, Neymar Jr. broke a bone in his foot in Brazil's quarter-final win over Colombia and missed that humiliating loss to Germany. This might explain why he's off being talked to by Samuel L. Jackson, but it doesn't explain how Neymar is able to kick a napkin dispenser at a robber with such an injury. Long story short: this is absolutely not the World Cup humiliation of Brazil in this movie. 5 Share this post Link to post
Cakebug Tranch 6873 Posted February 17, 2017 In case you're interested - here's the show Jason's talking about that featured Eric Bana on "Australia's Saturday Night Live" (it's not really like SNL). He was a comedian on the show "Full Frontal" for years. His big breakout role was playing all-round asshead Chopper Read, which vaulted him into serious roles. 3 Share this post Link to post
Hoothoolia 2 Posted February 17, 2017 That Sherlock skill he has, Cage also had in the first movie. When he first meets Samuel L Jackson in the diner and Cage said he knew it was a ruse because his mother was a career waitress and would never have worn heels to work. 2 Share this post Link to post
taylor anne photo 11311 Posted February 17, 2017 I didn't actually get to see this movie so purely going off of what was discussed in the podcast - was Ruby Rose barely in this movie at all??? Like the only reason I would have gone to see it is for her being a total badass (because if we're going to talk about the most attractive person on screen it's her every time). So if she's not even really in it then I declare this movie to be traaaaaash! 1 Share this post Link to post
