It's Tuesday. Yay. How's it going everybody? 

Welcome to the program. I am Viktor Wilt and I think I'm in a little bit better shape than I was yesterday. Had a rough mental day yesterday as well as just a pounding headache. Pounding headache. It was miserable. Miserable. You know, gotta empathize with anybody who deals with things like migraines. 

Usually if I get a headache, doesn't make me want to like puke. Oh, anyway, tried to get some sleep yesterday and got a little bit of a nap in after work and then woke up just riddled with anxiety. And then usually I can fall asleep pretty easy. But I don't know, whatever was going on with my head, I just could not get back to sleep. And you know how it is when you know you need to be up super early, like 5 a.m. And it just keeps getting later and later and later and then you're getting more and more stressed. Oh, yeah, thankfully my lady got home from work fairly quick to keep me company and distract me, helped me get to sleep. 

Geez. Really helping that today is a much better day. Ah, screw Monday. Anyway, so next band I'm gonna play. They got their big movie event happening at the Regal Edward Grand Teton Theater in Idaho Falls. 

Talking about Megadeth. It's going down the 22nd and 24th. We're giving away tickets all week. A simple call to win scenario. 

At some point, peaches or I will ask for caller number 15. If you get through, you win some tickets and you can go check out the Megadeth Cinematic Vent and you get to hear their new album before it comes out. So yeah, keep listening for your chance to win that. This is one of the tracks that will appear on that album. 

It's called I Don't Care. Well, this thread could be interesting or it could be depressing. Kind of like the one I looked at a minute ago. It was about things about the 90s that sucked and I was expecting a bunch of pop culture stuff like, you know, maybe pop music in general, 90s country music. 

I don't know when the last time you'll listen to some of that was, but yikes. But no, it was just very bleak and depressing. So maybe this one will be a little bit better. What's the most unhinged crazy prediction you have for 2026 that you're low key convinced is going to happen? And I mean, I guess right out of the gate, it's getting dark. But this is just wacky predictions from people on the internet. 

They say a reminder that in the Star Trek universe, World War three started in 2026. Yay. Yay. That's fantastic. 

That's just a TV show though. All right. Yikes. The world definitely needs to settle down. 

I swear. The news just gets dumber and dumber every day. This person predicts that a company comes up with an ozempic knockoff that causes the zombie apocalypse. You never know. 

Got these companies whipping up these magic new drugs. Something bad could happen. Let's see here. 

We'll go ahead and skip that one. See, this is why I should read these threads before because now it's just immediately getting getting dark. This person has a positive prediction. 

Cheap cold fusion invented in late November and everything starts getting better. That would be nice. How about time traveling tourists start showing up and taking pictures. They'll be sworn to secrecy about the future. But one of the kids will cry and wish us good luck before her mom pulls her away sternly. 

While the dad tells her it doesn't really matter anyway because we won't be around to stop it. Oh, that's great. Very optimistic internet. 

Oh, this person actually a little bit optimistic. Nothing happens. Nothing just a normal year. Okay, just one normal year. Nothing crazy. All right, now that is a crazy prediction. It would be wonderful. 

We just had kind of a boring year. But I don't think that's going to be the case. I think it's going to get pretty pretty nutty. 

Simply based on again the news. Let's see here. All right. Yeah, just dark, dark, dark. Dang it. 

Dang it. I miss the old internet. When people had fun. 

When people were optimistic. Can't even have some fun on Reddit. All right. I guess I'm going to take a quick break. And then I'll be back. I'm going to keep digging. We'll find something to talk about. 

Okay. The latest from Ice Nine Kills. The Laugh Track. Looks like the band is currently in the middle of writing a horror movie. Shouldn't be too big of a surprise. 

No one there stick. But that's cool. Looking forward to checking that out eventually. You ever see the Foo Fighters horror movie? It wasn't too bad. 

Wasn't too bad. Some of the guys in the band are better actors than the others. It's called Studio 666. And like I said, it was fun. You know, it was worth one watch, I guess. But I think I like the soundtrack better than the actual movie. Yeah. 

Yeah. Just because somebody's, you know, a rock star doesn't mean they're going to do great in a movie. Dave, again, he was pretty good. 

But some of the other guys, they just kind of took you out of the movie a little bit. Ice Nine Kills though. I don't know. I don't know. Maybe they could pull it. I don't know if they're going to be in the movie or they're just writing it or what. But hey, if it's more horror, I'm down with it. Now, gotta love some good horror action. Oh, I wish I could just sit around today and watch horror movies. But at least thankfully, so far today is a much better day than yesterday. 

Yesterday did not go my way to say the least. Yeah. So yeah. Yeah, check out the Fooz Horror Movie if you've never seen it. Studio 666. 

Worth one watch. What if there are other horror movies that have bands in them? Bands? Horror movies. 

Let's see here. I guess these are movies that, yeah, kind of have to deal with bands. I want movies that have actual band members. Wasn't there one that had like members of Five Finger Death Punch and stuff like that? Bands in horror movies. Maybe I need to redefine my Google search. 

All right. Alice Cooper and Iggy Pop were in a movie called The Dead Don't Die. And then they mentioned the Foo Fighters here. Dawkin appearing in Nightmare on Elm Street 3. Or is that just the song? 

Yeah. A lot of bands contributing musical, you know, or music to horror movies. I guess D. Snyder appearing in Strangeland. I haven't watched that in a long time. I remember the soundtrack was Bomb. 

But was the movie good? I don't know. Let's go to the phones here. K. Bear, you're live on the show. 

Keep that in mind. Who's this? This is JD. 

Good morning. Love you. Love your show. 

Oh, thanks JD. Are you going to be able to help me figure out horror movies that had band members in them? Well, you know, I have a movie, but it's not a horror movie that had bad members in it. 

All right. What's that? Airheads. Oh, yeah. That that's there were a lot of rock stars that popped up in that movie. I need to watch that again. It's a classic radio movie. And I haven't seen that in ages. Oh, and it's so fun. 

Becca loves Adam Sandler. So that should be a pretty easy one to go. Let's watch this. Yeah, she has some interesting tastes. You're right. But yeah. 

Let me listen to that movie though. Yeah. Yeah. 

Let me listen to Nerd in the Crowd. Remember? He was. He's talking about playing Dungeons and Dragons. Yeah. So there you go. All right. 

Yeah. Thanks for reminding me about that movie. I'm going to see if I can find it on streaming anywhere because that Becca and I will have to watch that for sure. How to find that song that they played on it all the time. You played on radio. 

The band's song that they're trying to play on the radio? Yeah, kind of like, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'll say it. 

I bet it's out there. Right. They have that old cassette tape, you know. 

Yeah. Try the original. Well, I'll do some digging. All right. 

Maybe I could pull it up. You have a great day. I'm listening. Right on. Thanks, JD. You have a good one too, man. Peace. Bye, peace. Hey, Bear. You're live on the show. 

Keep that in mind. Who's this? This is Jason. Jason. What you got for horror movies or it could be movies in general to feature rock stars? 

Horror movie with a rock star. I got three of them. All right. Rob Zombie's horror films. Oh, well, did Rob Zombie himself appear in any of those movies? Oh, yeah. 

Every one of them. Really? Okay. I don't know. First one. But I know he was definitely in the second one, second two. 

The devil's rejects? The other one. Okay. 

Yeah. I think he was definitely in two of them. I don't know if he, I think he was in the first one, but not the whole movie. Yeah. 

I'll do some digging into that because I know his wife is a star in all of them. Yes. Yeah. 

She is a member of my zombies. Well, I appreciate the call on that one. And those are some more really good movies. Devil's rejects is like grade A horror. Need to go back and watch that one again. Yeah, that's a great one. Well, appreciate the call today, man. Hope you have a great rest of the week. Yeah, you too. Right on. Peace. Okay. Wrong button. Okay, Bear, you were live on the show. 

Keep that in mind. Who's this? Okay, this is Becca. 

Becca. I have watched their heads a bunch of times because I love Adam Sandler, JD. Well, and also, okay, it's not a horror movie, but there's always tenacious D-man. Oh, yeah, that is definitely a band in a movie and one of the greatest movies of all time. You and me need to watch that together. I don't think we ever have sat down and watched it together. Yeah, no. My daughter even loves it. 

Yeah. She swears with it too, and it's fine. Well, let's make a date of watching Airheads and Tenacious D. That sounds like good night. Airheads and Tenacious D. Sounds good. Okay. Sounds like a good one. All right. Bye. Bye. Okay, Bear, you're live on the show. 

Keep that in mind. Who's this? This is your favorite listener, Mike Rolf, man. 

Mike, what's up? Chester Bennington in Saw. Oh, Chester Bennington was in Saw, and that scene is brutal. What was it like? Saw three or four? Like ten or something, wasn't it? 

One of the really old, long ones. Yeah, they have so many Saw movies. I can't remember which one. Oh, many of them. But yeah, that's the first one that came to mind was Old Chester. I was like, he was definitely in a horror movie. Yeah. 

Thank you. We're pretty good, but then they got kind of weird. Yeah, I haven't watched any of the newer ones. You know, the old, old ones were really good, but yeah. Yeah. All right, dude. We'll appreciate the call, Mike. 

Good to hear from you, homie. Yeah. Absolutely. Take care, buddy. You too. Peace. All right. Oh, come on. 

Kay, Barry, you're live on the show. Who's this? It's Mitch. How are you, Victor? 

Mitch, I'm doing pretty good, man. What movies and rock stars you got for me? Well, you remember a movie called Trick or Treat with Gene Simmons? Trick or Treat with Gene Simmons? 

Now, I swear I've seen Trick or Treat, but that that would have been back in the day. He played a radio DJ. I'm pretty sure he played a radio DJ in that movie. 

All right. I might be using him, but I know I was in a movie called Trick or Treat, and it wasn't really the greatest movie. It was a fun movie. It was a fun one. 

Well, hey, I want my first hit again. Sometimes fun is all you need. So. Yeah. 

All right, oh man. Appreciate the call today and enjoy the rest of the week. You too. Right on. Peace. All right. 

Peace. Actually pulled up a list on Loudwire while we were taking some calls. Alice Cooper been in a bunch of movies. Monster Dog, Prince of Darkness, Freddy's Dead, The Final Nightmare, The Attic Expeditions, and some movie called Suck. 

Corey Taylor's been in a couple movies, Fear Clinic, Bad Candy. We got another caller. Let's go ahead and go to the phones. Hey, Bear, you're live on the show. 

Keep that in mind. Who's this? This is the Dusticles. Hey, man. How you been? Not too bad. How about you? Oh, decent. 

So, yeah, what you got for horror movies with rock stars in them? I just tuned in. So I'm not sure if anyone said this yet, but Jonathan Davis made a cameo in Queen of the Damned. Oh, yeah. That's right. I haven't seen that forever. 

Another movie. Yeah, it was one of them. Yeah, one of my favorites growing up. But yeah, he actually wrote all the songs for that as well. Yeah, I was going to say another movie with a great soundtrack. So. Oh, yeah, I grew up on that soundtrack. 

I love that movie. I mean, it wasn't great, but, you know, it was good for the time. Yeah, have to go back and watch it again. It's been a long time. Oh, yeah. 

Yeah. So, well, right on, man. We'll appreciate the call and, you know, have a great week, dude. Hey, you as well. Thank you so much. Right on. Peace. 

See you. Yeah, this list I was looking at online. In addition to Gene Simmons being in Trick or Treat, apparently Ozzy was as well. So, yeah, they do have a picture of Gene Simmons here in a cowboy hat. You know, no makeup, of course. And Ozzy looking like, I don't know if he's some kind of a television host or something. Now, Jared Leto, does he count because it wasn't me and actor first? I don't know if I'd count him, but anyhow, watch some more. 

Now, just because it's January doesn't mean it's not the spooky season. I was looking at this post online that somebody made and they've got a large graphic with like a million band logos on it. And they're like, I'm looking for recommendations based on these bands I already like. And it goes all over the place. 

All right. Everything from Pearl Jam and Nirvana to Alice in Chains to then Morbid Angel, Gojira, Slaughter to Preveille, Led Zeppelin, the police, 311, Mastodon, Creed, Knocked Loose, Tool, Arctic Monkeys, 21 Pilots. They have basically every band you can imagine on this list. 

What do you do? Just start chucking bands at them? I guess you'd never heard of this one, but I mean, there are so many bands on this graphic that it would be very difficult. Every time I think of one, I'm like, oh, no, they're on there. There's Bring Me the Horizon. There's Pierce Sevelle. 

Okay. They got Parkway Drive. I mean, they even got Dream Theater on there. 

STP. There's like not a lot of rhyme or reason to it other than here is a gigantic list of rock and metal. It's kind of like if somebody posts in Life and Idaho Falls. Where's the best burger in town? 

And you just end up with a list of every single place that sells burgers. No rhyme or reason. You're not going to get a solid answer because everybody has different opinions. Where's the best sushi in town? Here's every place that sells it. Anyway, good luck to this person. 

He's getting a lot of responses, but I just don't even know where you'd begin. Very weird compilation of bands that are on this list here. Well, I guess that's how most people's music taste works. I mean, mine's all over the place. You know, it's pretty rock and metal centric, but I should make a graphic like this. 

Really confuse people. You know, chuck a few hip hop artists on there. You know, some Sturgill Simpson or something. Help me pick music and then just let them run wild. There you go. 

Name every band you can think of. I guess that's the key to getting content that gets interaction. You know, make it something that everybody can chime in on. I probably need to do some social posting. I've been really slacking on that lately. 

It's all right. The winter months, you know, they mess with you a little bit. You know, my motivation gets low. I need to get it together. Get it together. So I'm going to take a quick break back in a minute and we'll see what else we can dig up online. Something hopefully a little more useful. 

Well, after that nice, pretty song from Sleep Token might as well get into some nightmare fuel. Sorry, if I read this stuff, sometimes I got to share it because it made me feel creepy crawly. Thankfully, it was in Florida. So a woman is suing her apartment management after spider bites led to the amputation of two of her toes. She had to get two of her toes hacked off because spiders just started biting her feet. 

Started seeing them within two weeks of moving in. You gotta at least get the glue traps, okay lady? You gotta put down the glue traps, you see spiders? Eh, you never know what kind of spider might be biting ya. Get your skin all rotten off. 

Ugh. I haven't told this story in a while, but a few years ago I would generally sleep in the basement. Well, I always did. And so I'd use the basement bathroom to get ready for the day. Basements are where spiders hang out. Well, I got glue traps in the bathroom down there. One day I'm getting ready for work and I see this giant hobo spider stuck in the glue trap. And I'm like, oh geez, glad it's stuck in the glue trap. But he was kind of like thrashing around. It escaped the glue trap. 

It pulled its legs out and then it went running across the floor. Okay. Sorry. Might be a little bit early for spider talk, but I saw this article and I'm like, well, if I have to put up with reading that, I'm gonna share it. 

Eh. You don't have to lose your toes. So I don't know if she's gonna win this lawsuit or what, but you know, you shouldn't be at risk of losing a foot simply because you move into a new place. All right. Yeah, that reminds me, I need to put some new glue traps out. I know they're not the nicest thing, but you know, we got spiders around here that I've been bitten by a hobo before. It, it gets pretty, pretty bad. It's pretty nasty. Okay. You welcome to the program. 

It's the Victor Wilt Show. Hope your Tuesday is going good so far. All right. 

What was I looking at here? Oh, the best and worst states to raise a family in 2026. You got a little one on the way. Well you might want to move. I mean, we're not the worst. 

Idaho coming in at number 30 out of 50 states. So that's, you know, just floating around right in the middle. I'm going to go with that. That means we're in all right place to raise a family. But apparently there are better places according to what is this? 

They had a name for it. Doesn't matter. Right? The name of it doesn't matter. But apparently Massachusetts number one. Huh. 

Yeah. Very good on the family fun ranking. Also health and safety. Best education and childcare in the country. And they say it's really affordable too, which I don't know. 

Maybe you're as long as you're outside of Boston, Massachusetts is pretty affordable according to this. Idaho not doing very good on the family fun ranking coming in at number 41. Yeah. According to this, North Dakota has more family fun than Idaho. 

We need to get it together. I've been through North Dakota. I don't remember anything. I don't remember anything in North Dakota. What is North Dakota scream to you? 

Oil fields. That's about it. Huh. Well anyway, we are safe. We're doing good on the safety front coming in at number 16. But yeah, not so well in that affordability or education and childcare. Which I guess if you live here, you know, affordability's kind of shifted in the last few years. 

And you know, our politicians, they sure like to cut education. Well, I'm not telling you to move. Because again, a lot of these places that it says are the best states for families. It's like, I wouldn't want to live there. Massachusetts. No. 

No. My family lives in Minnesota. It's nice to visit for a few days. Would not live there. North Dakota. Wisconsin. Wisconsin's like a much worse Minnesota. I mean, it's not the worst place I've ever been. 

Okay. What is the worst state I've ever ever been? Probably have to be something like, like Nevada or something like that. I mean, what does the Nevada have of any excitement except Vegas? And Vegas is like a three day max. You know, you hang out in Vegas. It's like, get me out of here. 

Get me out of this chaos. New York. That's got to be pretty low on the affordability scale. 

Well, I guess outside of the city, New York, I think it's pretty cheap. But you're dealing with like horrible winters. Got to give a shout out to the current winter in East Idaho. This is the best winter I've ever remembered having. I know some people are sad. 

They want some snow and stuff. It'll come. We'll get it. Trust me, but this has been great. Fantastic. 

All right. Well, if you want to find that list for yourself, just Google it up. Best and worst states to raise a family. Again, it could be worse. We're number 30. Not too bad, I guess. 

Back with some freak news in a minute. Note to parents, your child's backpack. Not a good place to store your handgun. How about a safe? Have you ever heard of one of those? A safe. 

Let's see. This is out of, well, of course, Florida. Guys been charged with child negligence and arrested after his five-year-old was found carrying a loaded handgun inside their backpack. At their local elementary school. Apparently the school's screening system open gate. Alerted the staff. 

Is that just a metal detector? So not bad things happened or anything like that. But what was the guy's excuse? 

What did he say? Yeah, I thought it would be a good spot to put it. Geez, people. Yeah, you know, be a responsible firearm owner. I think here in Idaho, most people are. 

But there's still idiots everywhere. Okay. Um, are you having trouble getting going in the morning? Apparently you need to jump up and down 50 times. 

Oh, it's way too early for that. Yeah, videos are going viral on TikTok with people talking about the praises of jumping 50 times each morning, right when they get out of bed. So, you know, scientists and doctors have jumped in and they're like, yeah, actually, this is a good idea. 

Helps build bone density, builds muscle, promotes lymphatic drainage, improves circulation, and it wakes you up. Just don't do it if you have, you know, like problems like a weak pelvic floor, significant knee, hip, ankle or foot pain, Achilles, tendinopathy, planter, facilities. Recent sprains, a history of stress factors or balance issues. And you're just supposed to jump in place in rapid consistent speed, making sure to drive through the balls of your feet and land safely on the balls of your feet. Don't need to jump as high as you can, but if you do, you're going to get some of that extra bone and muscle strengthening benefits. 

All right. I don't know if I'm going to stand up and jump up and down 50 times right now. Maybe after I get some better sleep today. Did not sleep good yesterday. Yesterday was a rough day, but today is an improvement. So got that going for me, which is good. All right. 

What else do we have here? Ah, you know, if you're going to propose marriage to somebody, you might not want to do it in front of a crowd. Because what if that person says no? This band in Australia invited a fan up on stage to propose to his girlfriend. You know, he brings her up and he's like, Hey, you know, it was a few years ago. We saw these guys together. I know they're our favorite band and I thought today. Well, maybe today is the time it gets down on one knee and then she just starts shaking her head and grabbing his hand before before she tries to pull him back up to stand. As the crowd roared, the man could be here heard repeating no, no. 

And then she ran off the stage. Oh, that'd be crushing. Yeah, do that in private in case they say no. I mean, it might sound fun like I'm going to pull you up on stage at the Mountain America Center in front of 6000 people. Oh, be rough. 

No, I shouldn't laugh. I feel bad for the guy, but yeah, I guess the band themselves were pretty mortified. They didn't think that would be the result. Yeah, if you're going to go for a public proposal, make sure you're positive. They're going to say yes. And maybe it was stage fright. I don't know. But again, feel bad for the guy. 

Okay, got a little bit more nightmare fuel for you. For those of you into getting tattoos like I myself, I definitely enjoy a nice tattoo. But you got to make sure you're not allergic to the ink. 

I can can do some bad stuff for you. This guy, where was he from? It was from Poland. And he got this tattoo of a red flower on his arm and apparently the red ink, he was allergic to it. And it left him with some pretty unpleasant side effects. He can no longer grow hair. I don't know if that's just on his arm, but he also is no longer able to sweat. Yeah, it says it caused his hair to fall out. I don't know if that's on top of his head or what it doesn't say. But yeah, you just can't sweat anymore and you got to be able to sweat. 

All right. His lymph nodes became all swollen and then his skin started changing color. None of them could figure out that the red ink was to blame. And then they finally did a biopsy of the swollen lymph node and traces of the red ink were pinpointed. So he had to go under the knife surgery eight times to slice the red ink sections out of his forearm and replace them with skin grafts. But now his hair has grown back, but he still can't sweat. Leave him in, you know, he's at risk of heat stroke and I guess he's going to have to move like here or something. 

Antarctica moved to Alaska. So anyway, that's scary. I've never heard of that one before. Thankfully, I've had red ink tattooed into me and didn't seem to have a problem. But yeah, just something to apparently be aware of. I don't know, maybe it was just crappy ink, crappy overseas ink. 

I don't know. So good luck. I'd still go get a tattoo today if I had the money for it. They're pricey. 

Cost a lot of dough. Want you to note this event coming up February 5th at noon. You've got the Greater Idaho Falls Police Foundation hosting its annual law enforcement appreciation luncheon at the Mililuca headquarters in Idaho Falls. I work with Lieutenant Crane every Friday during traffic school powered by the advocates.

Getting out and supporting those who serve our community every day. Again, ifpolicefoundation.org for tickets and the full scoop, go check it out. Chino from DevTones was in the news the other day saying that the band is the biggest that they've ever been. And I've noticed this myself looking at streaming information for the band over the past couple of years. 

I don't know if it was TikTok to blame, but the band is just massive. And I think it's great. Got to meet Chino one time, really nice guy, and I think they definitely deserve it. It's kind of crazy how long some of these bands have been at it and that they're just now really blowing up and becoming like super massive. So congrats to DevTones. 

Pretty dang cool. Well, if you're feeling bad about your bank account, you know, you're not the only one. He's sometimes a rough right now. Poor Mr. Beast doesn't have any money. 

It's what he's saying. Saying he's got a negative bank balance. You know, his empire is valued at about $5 billion, but he has to borrow money for stuff like taking a loan from his mom for his wedding. That's what he says. He's borrowing money. I'm sure it's going to roll back in Mr. 

Beast. Sometimes you probably shouldn't jump in the news and just say stuff. All right. Nobody wants to hear Mr. Beast going, oh, I don't have anybody. 

Nobody wants to really hear pretty much anybody say that. Time to tough right now. Hopefully prices will come down eventually though, right? Well, I'm just going to hide in a cave, hide in my house till payday. Because I don't even want to look at my bank account right now. 

Not till payday. Be real sad. Be Mr. Beast sad. 

I have a feeling he has an easier time borrowing money than the average person though. Anyway, see what I mean when I'm talking about that light news day and there's nothing pleasant to talk about. I have been scrolling through every possible news source of manageable to try to find things to talk about. Can we stop with the doom and gloom and darkness already? And the craziness is really getting old. 

This show used to be a lot easier to do a few years ago. I mean, there's plenty I could talk about and that I have thoughts on, but I ain't going to stir it up. Everybody is mentally exhausted. I think after 2025, we just need fun. So I'm going to try to find something really stupid to talk about. 

I'm going to do my very best. Let's talk a little bit about video games. That's a positive subject, ain't it? Everybody loves video games. 

Right? I know I do. I wish I had more time to play them. 

And I really need to get around to playing something other than Red Dead 2. It's just such an easy go-to. I turn it on, tends to be relaxing. 

Next thing I know, I'm waking up in the recliner, getting eaten by a bear. Well, if you're not into video games, you can always watch movie versions. There are a number of video game movies that are getting made right now. 

Some of these I'd heard of, some of them I had not heard were in development. Like Mass Effect. That's a game that I have purchased on my computer. Haven't played it. 

I've got a pile of games on my computer that I just haven't played, namely because I need to fix my computer. It just keeps overheating. And it's very, very frustrating. So much easier to just fire up the PlayStation and, okay, let's Red Dead 2 again. But I have heard that Mass Effect is known for having a great story. So that could be a pretty cool adaptation. Like The Last of Us, they've done a really good job adapting that so far. I'm very interested to see how Season 3 will go. 

Not sure when that's coming out. But some of these adaptations seem kind of weird to me. Like The Sims. All right, you know, they made Barbie into a movie that was actually pretty good. So maybe somehow they can pull off making The Sims into a movie that's entertaining. It just sounds strange to me because The Sims is just based around controlling virtual characters, just doing menial everyday life things like going to work, taking a shower, eating food, go to bed. I mean, it's a game that you wouldn't think would really work very well, The Sims. But I have played the crap out of The Sims. I went through a period of time when I got my first computer and The Sims 1 came out. That was my Red Dead back then. Now, Assassin's Creed. I haven't played a lot of that. 

But I would imagine based on what I know about it, it could make a pretty good movie. The Legend of Zelda, they recently showed some screenshots. It's a live action. Not going to be a cartoon or anything. 

Legend of Zelda, one of the best video game franchises of all time. Can it be made into a good movie? Probably. Speaking of Red Dead, do you see that pop up from time to time as a movie suggestion? 

I don't know. The game is so long. It's kind of like a Stephen King book. Every Stephen King book that they make into a movie for the most part just sucks. Unless there are stories that are like 100 pages long. Those work out great. Shorter stories. 

But the longer the books are, the worse the movies are. So, I don't know. Legend of Zelda, pretty lengthy story and which story are they going to do? There's been a lot of different games. I've never played Gears of War, but I guess they've got a movie coming for that. I did see a trailer for the Street Fighter movie. And I don't know what to think based on the trailer. It could be cheese or it could end up being pretty good. The latest Mortal Kombat movies were pretty good. 

So, I don't know. Call of Duty, I'm sure they could make that into a movie. They've had Tomb Raider movies, but I guess they're making a new one. Could be good. 

You got Ghost of Tsushima. Another game I started playing and then never finished. Same with the latest God of War games. Really need to get around to playing that new God of War. Bought it months ago, played it once, off it went. 

I don't know. I'm terrible with starting games and then not finishing them. You know, the one story I'd like to see him adapt, I think would be Bioshock. I think that could make for a pretty good series. Bioshock's a great video game series. 

But who knows? I did see that Mike Flanagan is going to be doing a new Resident Evil movie. And that's exciting to me because Resident Evil movies, haven't been that great, but Mike Flanagan, if you've never seen some of his stuff, check out Fall of the House of Usher or Midnight Mass on Netflix. They're so good. So good. And he's rumored to be doing The Dark Tower. 

So that's what I'm really looking forward to. The Dark Tower being properly adapted because, man, that movie sucked. It was bad. 

So bad. So anyway, some good video game movies to look forward to in the future. There's others that they're discussing making like Elden Ring, Death Stranding, Stray, Stray's a game I need to buy. You'd think I would know that I would own that game being a cat guy. 

You know, it's a game where he plays a cat and it's supposed to be really good. But I haven't picked it up. I bet you can buy it pretty cheap now. The game's been out forever. 

Probably should have looked during the holiday season. What's it going for online right now? Hmm. Seems kind of steep at 37 bucks. 

Hmm. Gotta be somewhere else I could pick that up for a little bit better of a deal. Maybe eBay. Find a used copy.
