Show of the Weekend: Marvel's Avengers and Luke's Ship Shape Assassin Quiz

[@outsidextra]

Superheroes! Boats! We look at Marvel's Avengers and the Assassin's Creed Rebel Collection in Show of the Weekend! Wooo, weekend! ⚓️

[@slewone4905]

where in the heck he got that tape recorder. Wait, Jane, Luke borrowed your Time machine and stole a tape recorder from 1992.

[@ssjjvlk]

I LOVE YOU GUYS

[@BloodmoonPictures]

really excited for the Avengers game, and its somewhat relieving but also a little sad that its not set in the MCU, but this way they have more freedom with story and character developement (and also dont need to pay the actors for the making of the game)

Luke's retirement plan is to become Mr Toad from The Wind In The Willows

[@JayxFun]

Luke describing the hulk :"Paste. Paste. Paste" Almost as if he were making a sort of mortar..... with.... humans. Building an orphanage maybe?

[@BouncingTribbles]

He just can't help himself, can he?

[@davidstepanek6107]

Hulk do good boss?

[@cthulhufhtagn2483]

Luke's Hulk is a lot darker than regular Hulk.

[@bezerkoid]

@@cthulhufhtagn2483 see Ultimate Hulk, who's worse in almost every way

[@jameswoodard4304]

Ha! A while ago, I commented a lengthy list of evidence that Luke is actually, secretly, the darkest of the Oxboxtra team under his plucky external demeanor. "The Wall" was definitely included, and this certainly reinforces the concept. I mean, he harvested all the Little Sisters for cripes sake! Just kidding Luke! (Don't kill me)

[@martinflyer1197]

Luke talking about a crew of a ship singing songs Me: can the skeleton army sing?

[@Sableagle]

Yes, bass. Is our fans, bass.

[@tinyfistm.2607]

The most tragic thing about the sinking of Luke's ship isn't the loss of all hands. It's that down there, beneath the waves... they found the Water Temple

[@Sableagle]

I was king of expecting Ellen to switch tunes to Il Mio Cuore Va when they hit the reef and sank. (Look it up if you didn't get the joke.)

[@AlmightyPolarBear]

@@Sableagle You are a King?! Nice to finally talk with one.

[@seanrshivers]

"if I was the hulk I would make smart, tactical decisions" -Luke, not understanding the hulk

[@Banquet42]

Maybe Professor Hulk or whatever he was called in that comic? Generally though, Hulk's strategic decisions were - what should I smash? First?

[@maxpower3990]

Why else does the Hulk decide to smash an already collapsing bridge?

[@BouncingTribbles]

Taskmaster: can learn any skills used against him. Avengers: lets use black widow! The human who's only power is her skill!

[@marhawkman303]

Well... no. Ok super-longevity is a boring power, but Tony can't imitate weapons. So if you bring weapons he doesn't have then he has to use something else. Also, knowing 200 ways to punch and kick doesn't really give you an edge in combat strategy.

[@brocksisson7128]

How perfect is it that Luke has a jumper on that says 1992 on it while holding a tape recorder, love everything about the aesthetic.

[@slewone4905]

YOu notice it too.

[@onetom2222]

Ellen: looks threateningly, dead on, at you Luke on the other hand: tilts his head this weird way, like he's waiting for applause

[@youkai04]

Ellen: "What song would you like your pirate crew to sing?" The answer I thought Luke would say: "Vangaboy's We like to party."

[@ellendierickx9111]

Same!

[@Icam_here]

i think we all know the next song must be Jingle Jingle Jingle, everyone else in the wold

[@Banquet42]

Show of the Weekend theme tune as a bonus track/ B side?

[@coyoteartist]

Now that's going to be in my head next time I hear the cat's collar bell.

[@deadzepplin9801]

i sincerely hope someone has submitted that version

[@Agamemnon2]

I'm holding out hope for "Put him in a box, in a box..."

[@Incoherent-excitement]

Surely that’s the remix version they’re gonna release in a few months

[@markmandal3467]

Luke is going avant garde with his music direction, which means a version of the show of the weekend theme with theremin and harpsichord instrumentation is on the way. #preshbeats

[@coyoteartist]

To be honest. I want to hear that.

[@Sableagle]

I want a theorbo. It'd be nice to hear a theorbo in the new Show of the Weekend theme, too.

[@davidwit7749]

Don't knock the theremin. It worked for Star Trek.

[@MrRafalel]

Ok someone HAS to do a "Literally everyone else in the world" remake with dogs and cats noises... it NEEDS to exist

God. As a post/math rock fan, Ellens “when does it start” hits a little to close to home 😅

[@misterthegeoff9767]

One thing I miss about old fashioned singles is that back in the day that would have been a great B side

[@thembill8246]

Having made many albums referred to by my family as "not music," I definitely sympathize.

[@Zeokage]

I think Luke is channelling his inner Ross...

[@FnRenner]

Post/math rock? I'm picturing Susie Dent drunk, of course, fronting an 80's hair band.

[@eoghanmacmillan2131]

I was getting more prog rock vibes from it. Had an uncanny resemblance to the start of Rush's 2112.

[@Sweenaldo85]

Luke’s New Song sounds like when Ross found his “sound” in Friends.

[@merepseu]

No explosion.

[@mik4k6]

You beat me to the comment. Two thumbs up! (If only I could. ^^)

[@samgonzalez8662]

[@Shado_wolf]

Oh Luke, where you go from here is: "Jingle Jingle Jingle Everyone else in the world"

[@idioticpanther8068]

Now I'm really scared of the Taskmaster; he might stop me from procrastinating and pressure me into actually doing important things!

[@baxter22071990]

nah, if his show on dave is anything to go by, he'll get you to do something weird, like roll an egg along these hotwheels tracks using a spatula , furthest distance wins

[@thegoshdarnedbatman5257]

“If you look at their boots...” And I proceeded to only look at their boots in all the clips.

[@IAmTheAce5]

I remember AC Rogue and feeling the Assassin/Templar dynamic was off- whereas before Templars were 'we do what we want because' and Assassins were 'we are responsible for our actions and their consequences', suddenly the Assassins are 'we follow no laws but our own' and I'm thinking, 'where did their sense of moral responsibility go?' like they forgot the first rule of the Brotherhood- 'stay your blade from the flesh of the innocent'

[@TheMugen666]

I am just gonna say this about the whole "It felt good to play" about the Avengers game. I played the Anthem Beta and truth be told it absolutely felt good to play. Sadly that Beta was just about everything the game had/has to offer overall. Yet I am still cautiosly excited for the Avengers game. Please Crystal Dynamics, don't let the sacrifice of Shadow of the Tomb Raider be in vain.

Me as king of the nerds: erm ACTUALLY, it was a flying head scissors as she went off to the side. Hurricanrana is jump up then fall backwards, Frankensteiner is front flip onto shoulders then fall backwards. WHATAMIDOINGWITHMYLIFE!!!!

[@linuslarsson8094]

ACK-cthually, Frankensteiner is the name of the choreographer, the move itself is just known as The Move ;P

“What would you like to be sung to you by your crew as you sail the open seas?” Me: Disney music! (From the older, more classic movies.) I’d love to hear them chanting Hellfire from the Hunchback of Notredame, and while boarding another ship start piping up with Poor unfortunate souls from the little mermaid. Gotta admit it’d be pretty cool 😎.

[@gruggerduggerhoose]

“I mean i fantasise about retiring all the time.” *muffled shouts of millenial agreement in the distance

[@Sableagle]

Luke? Bad news: by the time you do get to retire, you'll be too old for adventuring. Get that tuff done before you hit 50, lad, or before you hit 35 if you were ever in the army.

I wonder what Ellen's Reaction would be if the new developers of Kingdoms of Amalur decided to change up the game.... if a new one ever comes out. Also, _paste_ Luke?! Remember the Skeletons and the Orphanage?!

[@jesssealey6552]

It feels like they're trying to hook you in the prologue by letting you play as the iconic Avengers but then you spend the rest of the game as a fairly pants, less cool character. Could be another Metal Gear Solid: Sons of Liberty instance with playing as THE Solid Snake during the prologue and then Raiden for the rest which wasn't... well received. For the sake of the Avengers fans and Crystal Dynamics I hope they can make it work.

[@captainsavvy07]

It was AC Unity that came out at the same time as Rogue; the ending of Rogue leads directly into the beginning of Unity. Shay was an interesting character, and it was nice to see an AC story from the perspective of the Assassins not necessarily being in right and the Templars not being comedically evil. I didn't have a PS4 or XB1 at the time, so I was only able to get Rogue. Turns out I lucked out because Rogue was basically Black Flag and worked perfectly whereas we all remember the state of Unity at release!

[@newajseyes]

Luke gets so flamboyant when talking about ships AND WE STAN

[@phyllissmith1966]

I love Luke's take on The Hulk, so basically it's the "Little Bunny Foo Foo" maneuver. Pick em up and squish em, Yay.

[@BrendanSperry]

I would want my crew to sing "Rime of the Ancient Mariner", by Iron Maiden.

[@DamnedEyez]

I don't know if Ellen was misremembering or just had a case of Black Flag on the mind, but Black Flag came out in 2013 for both generations. Rogue came out alongside Unity a year later. Rogue for PS3/360 only and Unity for PS4/XB1 only. Part of the draw for Rogue was the sailing because Black Flag was so popular.

Also, I have to say I'm impressed by Luke's: A) wingspan. Look, maybe don't spread your arms in the context of discussing elastic-limbed superheroes, though. It might confuse folks. (2:46) B) vocal range. As a fellow gangly, tall person (not Luke tall, let's be realistic) who sings bass, I felt a certain kinship. C) ability to actually use the word "ship" instead of "boat" to describe the large sailing vessels he is so fond of. That has been one of my running gripes, and I'm proud of your progress.
