Steve:

A quick four-word plot question to kick us off today. Which Marvel movie is this? Anger turns man green.

Lovella:

Oh, I think that's The Incredible Hulk?

Steve:

Correct.

Lovella:

Welcome to Kids vs. Parents. I'm Lovella.

Steve:

And I'm Steve.

Lovella:

If this is your first time listening, welcome to Kids vs. Parents.

Lovella:

And this is a trivia battle against the kids and the parents.

Steve:

That's right.

Steve:

Kids versus parents is four tough questions for the parents,

Steve:

four easier questions for the kids, all based around the same topic.

Steve:

And today, what are we playing today, Lovella?

Lovella:

Guess the plot.

Lovella:

Dad, do you want to explain the game?

Steve:

Sure.

Steve:

Guess the plot.

Steve:

We're going to give each other four cryptic clues

Steve:

that lead to a plot of a movie or a book.

Steve:

And we have to try and guess what that is using only four words.

Steve:

And today we have had this topic requested a lot, which is the Marvel movies or Marvel.

Steve:

So we've decided to do a guess the plot on Marvel because there's so many movies, right, Lovella?

Steve:

Sure.

Steve:

How many of these Marvel movies have you seen?

Lovella:

Zero.

Steve:

Zero.

Steve:

You're not a Marvel expert at all, right?

Lovella:

No, I only know Spider-Man.

Steve:

All right.

Steve:

So you don't really know much about Marvel.

Lovella:

No, I don't.

Lovella:

Which is why I invited a guest to help me out and basically answer all the questions for me.

Lovella:

Okay.

Lovella:

I'm going to lose.

Steve:

Yep.

Steve:

You have brought a Marvel expert, haven't you?

Lovella:

She doesn't like to be called an expert.

Steve:

Okay.

Steve:

Why don't you introduce who you've got there?

Steve:

Okay.

Lovella:

I have here my cousin, Ever.

Lovella:

Hi.

Ever:

Thank you for having me.

Steve:

Welcome, Ever.

Steve:

Are you excited to be here?

Ever:

I am.

Steve:

A little nervous.

Steve:

A little nervous?

Ever:

Yeah.

Steve:

Because it's such a big subject?

Steve:

Big topic.

Steve:

Yeah.

Steve:

All right.

Steve:

Well, we're going to do our best.

Steve:

I was into Marvel movies early on when they were starting to come out in the 2000s.

Steve:

haven't really watched anything in the last decade or so.

Steve:

So I don't know how well I'll do on this either ever.

Steve:

So we're kind of both in a similar boat here.

Steve:

Okay.

Steve:

All right.

Steve:

So our theme today is Marvel movies and the Marvel Cinematic Universe, right?

Steve:

So I had to research this because I was curious what was in this.

Steve:

And the X-Men movies aren't in Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Steve:

That's correct, right?

Ever:

No.

Steve:

Yeah.

Steve:

So it's not X-Men movies.

Steve:

It's all the other stuff.

Lovella:

Yeah.

Steve:

Cool.

Steve:

All right, who's going to go first today, Lovella?

Steve:

I'd like you to choose who goes first.

Steve:

Would you like the parents to answer first or the kids to answer first?

Lovella:

Let's do the parents.

Steve:

Parents answer first?

Lovella:

Yeah.

Steve:

You want to see how well I do and then see if you can just beat me by one.

Lovella:

See what the competition looks like.

Steve:

Right, okay.

Steve:

All right, I will be answering first then, parents.

Steve:

Get your Marvel knowledge ready and let's do this.

Steve:

All right.

Steve:

Plot number one.

Ever:

Genius captive builds suit.

Steve:

Genius captive builds suit.

Steve:

Okay, genius builds suit, that's Iron Man.

Steve:

Now, the question is, is it Iron Man 1, 2, 3, is there a 4?

Steve:

I don't know if there's a 4.

Steve:

I know there's a 1, 2, and a 3, right?

Steve:

Yeah.

Steve:

Okay.

Steve:

I got that right.

Steve:

Okay.

Steve:

So is it 1, 2, or 3?

Steve:

I am going to guess.

Steve:

Sorry, could you give me the four words again?

Ever:

Genius captive builds suit.

Steve:

Okay.

Steve:

He builds the suit.

Steve:

That's in 1.

Steve:

He doesn't build the suit in 2 or 3.

Steve:

So I'm going to say Iron Man 1 or Iron Man.

Ever:

Iron Man 1 is correct.

Steve:

Yes.

Lovella:

Nice.

Steve:

All right.

Steve:

Cool.

Steve:

I'll take it.

Steve:

One for me.

Lovella:

All right.

Lovella:

Plot number two.

Lovella:

Artificial intelligence rejects humanity.

Steve:

Artificial intelligence rejects humanity.

Steve:

Oh, man.

Steve:

This is hard for me.

Steve:

I don't even know what, like, hero this would be.

Steve:

Artificial intelligence.

Steve:

What movie has artificial intelligence?

Steve:

This has got to be one from the latest movies.

Steve:

I feel like this plot isn't familiar to me.

Steve:

It's not the Avengers.

Steve:

It's not going to be any of the Avengers.

Steve:

Is it Ant-Man?

Lovella:

That's a funny Marvel movie.

Steve:

Okay.

Steve:

I don't know the answer.

Steve:

Girls, give me the answer.

Ever:

Avengers Age of Ultron.

Steve:

Okay.

Steve:

So it was an Avengers movie.

Ever:

Okay.

Steve:

And that's all about artificial.

Steve:

I see.

Steve:

I haven't seen that one.

Ever:

Yeah.

Steve:

Yeah.

Steve:

It's all about artificial intelligence.

Steve:

Yeah.

Ever:

Like there's an AI villain.

Steve:

Yeah.

Steve:

Okay.

Steve:

Right.

Steve:

Got it.

Steve:

Is it kind of like what's happening now in the age of AI?

Steve:

Is the AI villain coming down and generating, you know,

Steve:

AI slop along the world?

Ever:

No, not quite.

Steve:

Not quite?

Steve:

Not quite.

Steve:

Not quite like that?

Steve:

No.

Steve:

Okay.

Steve:

All right.

Steve:

Well, I got that one wrong.

Steve:

That's okay.

Steve:

Let's move on to plot number three.

Ever:

Plot number three.

Ever:

Misfits unite.

Ever:

Save galaxy.

Steve:

soon okay i know this one it's gonna be guardians of the galaxy they're all misfits now which

Steve:

guardians of the galaxy because there are again three or four of these movies too and i'm gonna

Steve:

to be honest with you, although I live 30 minutes down the road from Disneyland and

Steve:

I've been there a lot and ridden the Guardians of the Galaxy ride many, many times, I have

Steve:

never seen the Guardians of the Galaxy movies.

Lovella:

I thought you have.

Steve:

No, I haven't because I've been wanting to watch them with you and you keep saying no,

Steve:

you don't want to watch them.

Ever:

They're really good.

Ever:

You should watch them.

Steve:

So I'm going to guess, well, I don't actually know the names of the other ones.

Steve:

I know there is a Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3, which means there's obviously a Volume 2 and a Volume 1.

Steve:

I'm going to guess Guardians of the Galaxy 1.

Ever:

Correct.

Steve:

Yes.

Steve:

All right.

Steve:

Nice.

Steve:

Okay.

Steve:

Two.

Steve:

I've got two.

Steve:

Yeah.

Steve:

Two out of four.

Steve:

Two out of four.

Steve:

All right.

Steve:

Give me the last one.

Steve:

Yep.

Lovella:

All right.

Lovella:

Plot number four.

Lovella:

Spy confront stolen childhood.

Steve:

Spy confronts stolen childhood. What could this be? It's a recent one. Is it? Yeah. Okay. It's a

Steve:

recent one um spy okay what are the spy movies oh boy I am I really don't know is it going to be an

Steve:

Avengers one that's the only recent ones I can think of no I don't know I have no idea I really

Lovella:

have no idea Lovella do you have any idea yeah I do because I know the answer yeah okay the correct

Steve:

answer was Black Widow oh yes right who plays Black Widow is that Scarlett Johansson yes Scarlett

Steve:

Johansson. I have not seen that movie. Wouldn't know what it's about, but I guess it's about

Steve:

spies. Cool. Now I know four words to that plot. But yeah. All right. Well, I was two

Steve:

out of four. Still not bad. Not too bad. I'll take it. Let's see how you guys go. How are

Steve:

you feeling about your movie knowledge on Marvel, guys? I have no knowledge. It's all

Steve:

up to ever. Okay. You're just going to defer to her every time? I'm feeling kind of rusty,

Steve:

to be honest. When was the last time you watched a Marvel movie? Like weeks ago, months ago?

Steve:

Oh, are you?

Steve:

Oh, really?

Steve:

That long ago?

Steve:

Yeah.

Steve:

Okay, so let's test it out then.

Steve:

Okay, here we go, kids.

Steve:

It's your turn.

Steve:

Plot number one.

Steve:

Thunder Prince loses power.

Ever:

Okay.

Ever:

Thunder Prince gives me Thor.

Steve:

Yeah.

Ever:

But there's four Thor movies now.

Steve:

Okay.

Ever:

But in the first one, he loses his power.

Ever:

He's banished to Earth.

Ever:

He has to figure out how to come back.

Steve:

Okay.

Ever:

So I'm going to say it's Thor.

Ever:

I think it's just called Thor.

Steve:

Thor.

Steve:

The original Thor.

Steve:

One, Thor.

Steve:

You are correct.

Steve:

Thor.

Steve:

Yay!

Steve:

Yeah, well done.

Steve:

From 2011.

Steve:

Well done.

Lovella:

Wow.

Steve:

That's one on the board.

Steve:

Well done.

Steve:

All right.

Steve:

Plot number two.

Steve:

Soldier returns with secrets.

Ever:

Okay.

Ever:

Soldier gives me Captain America.

Steve:

Do you agree, Lovella?

Lovella:

Yeah, I'm confident.

Ever:

Which there are three of.

Lovella:

What was it?

Steve:

Soldier returns with secrets.

Ever:

Okay.

Ever:

I'm going to say it's Captain America, the Winter Soldier, because soldiers in the name,

Ever:

but also a soldier returns with secrets.

Steve:

Right?

Steve:

Yes.

Steve:

That's what happens in that movie?

Steve:

Yeah.

Steve:

Okay.

Steve:

I haven't seen this movie, but yes, you are correct.

Ever:

Yay.

Steve:

Captain America, the Winter Soldier.

Ever:

Well done.

Steve:

All right.

Steve:

Let's go with plot number three.

Steve:

You're tied with me now, so you've got to get both of these wrong, which is a pretty small

Steve:

chance of that happening.

Steve:

Here we go.

Steve:

Plot number three.

Steve:

Loki attacks Earth first.

Lovella:

I've heard the name Loki.

Lovella:

Who's Loki?

Steve:

Lovella?

Lovella:

I don't know.

Steve:

Have you seen him at Disneyland?

Lovella:

I've just heard Loki.

Steve:

Is he a good guy or a bad guy?

Lovella:

I don't know.

Lovella:

Is Loki the one who's got like the hair and the green suit?

Steve:

Yes.

Lovella:

Oh, let's go.

Lovella:

I know something.

Lovella:

There you go.

Steve:

Yeah.

Steve:

All right.

Steve:

So Loki attacks Earth first.

Steve:

He sounds like a villain.

Steve:

Yeah.

Steve:

So Loki is Thor's brother.

Steve:

Just a little fact.

Steve:

Just a little fact.

Steve:

A little fact for you there.

Steve:

Yeah.

Steve:

For future.

Steve:

And.

Steve:

So Loki attacks Earth first.

Ever:

First.

Ever:

Okay.

Ever:

That's throwing.

Steve:

That's throwing you?

Ever:

That throws me off just a little bit.

Steve:

Okay.

Ever:

But I'm just going to say it's Avengers.

Ever:

Because Loki comes and attacks New York.

Steve:

Yeah.

Ever:

And all the Avengers have to come together to fight.

Steve:

Okay.

Steve:

You are correct.

Ever:

Yes.

Steve:

The Avengers.

Steve:

I was worried.

Steve:

You are correct.

Steve:

The Avengers.

Steve:

Yes.

Steve:

So Loki attacks first because he actually attacks in other movies, right?

Steve:

He appears in other Avengers movies or other, actually not Avengers movies.

Steve:

He appears in other Marvel movies like Thor.

Steve:

And so this was to differentiate that it's the first time you see him.

Steve:

Okay.

Ever:

Yeah.

Steve:

So well done.

Steve:

And it worked.

Steve:

You got that correct.

Steve:

Mm-hmm.

Steve:

Nice.

Steve:

All right.

Steve:

You're in front of me.

Steve:

Here we go.

Steve:

Last plot.

Steve:

You're going for a clean sweep here.

Steve:

Mm-hmm.

Steve:

So you were nervous about this.

Steve:

I was.

Steve:

But you're ready to just sweep the board.

Steve:

Here we go.

Steve:

Plot number four.

Steve:

Multiverse brings Spider-Men.

Lovella:

It's Spider-Man!

Steve:

Spider-Man?

Steve:

Is that your answer?

Steve:

No, no, no, no.

Lovella:

But I know it is Spider-Man.

Steve:

Well, is it?

Ever:

Multiverse brings Spider-Men.

Lovella:

Wait.

Lovella:

Can it be a cartoon movie?

Steve:

No.

Steve:

No, I don't think they're part of it.

Lovella:

I know what you're thinking.

Lovella:

Yeah, I watched a Spider-Man movie about a multiverse bringing multiple Spider-Men.

Steve:

Oh, have you?

Steve:

Yeah.

Steve:

Okay, but that's not part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, I don't think.

Lovella:

No, no.

Steve:

But it might help.

Steve:

You might be close.

Steve:

I don't know.

Ever:

Maybe.

Ever:

Ever?

Ever:

Okay, well, I'm going to say it's one of the Spider-Man movies.

Steve:

Right.

Ever:

And I'm going to say it's Spider-Man No Way Home because in it

Steve:

This is this iconic scene that everybody memes?

Ever:

Yes.

Ever:

Everyone was waiting for this moment.

Ever:

Everyone was hoping it was going to happen where Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire and

Ever:

Tom Holland all appeared on screen at once, all as their different Spider-Mans.

Steve:

Yes.

Ever:

So Spider-Man No Way Home.

Steve:

You are correct.

Steve:

Of course you're correct.

Steve:

Well done.

Steve:

Nice one.

Steve:

You clean sweeped it.

Steve:

I did.

Steve:

Well done.

Steve:

Thank you.

Steve:

Nice.

Steve:

We've only had a few clean sweeps, right?

Steve:

Lovella, I think you clean sweeped Taylor Swift.

Steve:

Oh, I bet.

Steve:

Well done.

Steve:

Thank you.

Steve:

Excellent.

Steve:

All right.

Steve:

Well, we have our bonus question now for our tiebreaker.

Steve:

It's not a tiebreaker for us, but in your car, it might be a tiebreaker question and you can

Steve:

use it as a tiebreaker.

Steve:

Otherwise, it's worth bonus points.

Steve:

So we usually say it's worth double.

Steve:

So two points, which would make it a tie if I get it.

Steve:

Otherwise, you guys are going for the win.

Steve:

All right.

Steve:

So I don't know the answer to this one.

Steve:

Mama's given us a tiebreaker question.

Steve:

So we'll see who gets this first.

Steve:

So buzz in.

Steve:

First person to, you can just say the word buzz or say your name.

Steve:

But if you do answer incorrectly, the other person immediately gets the points.

Steve:

That's the rule I'm adding for you guys.

Steve:

So you can't just buzz in and answer anything you want.

Steve:

Okay.

Steve:

Here we go.

Steve:

Bonus plot.

Steve:

Thief Becomes Tiny Hero

Lovella:

Buzz

Steve:

Buzz?

Lovella:

Yes

Steve:

Buzz

Lovella:

Does it have something to do with Guardians?

Ever:

No

Steve:

No

Steve:

No I think I know

Steve:

You got me first

Steve:

Yeah

Steve:

You go ahead

Ever:

I think we actually mentioned it earlier

Ever:

And Tiny kind of gives it away for me

Ever:

Yeah

Ever:

I'm going to say it's Ant-Man

Steve:

Yep

Steve:

That's what I think too

Steve:

But you beat me to it

Steve:

Let me scroll down and see

Steve:

Yep, you are correct.

Steve:

Ant-Man.

Steve:

Well done.

Steve:

Nice work.

Steve:

That was close.

Steve:

All right.

Steve:

Well done.

Steve:

You got everything right.

Steve:

I don't know what you're nervous about.

Steve:

Ever, you smashed it.

Steve:

Lovella, you need to research your Marvel movies for next time you do this.

Steve:

Yeah, I can.

Ever:

Yeah, I should.

Steve:

Yeah?

Steve:

Ever, what would you recommend for anybody who hasn't watched a Marvel movie?

Ever:

Oh.

Steve:

What should they watch first?

Ever:

I think you should start with Iron Man.

Steve:

Iron Man?

Steve:

Yeah.

Steve:

One of the originals?

Steve:

Yeah.

Steve:

That's a good one.

Ever:

Or the first Captain America.

Steve:

Okay.

Steve:

There we go.

Steve:

There's some recommendation if you haven't done any Marvel movies, Lovella.

Steve:

and start with one of those maybe.

Steve:

I'll gladly watch one of those with you.

Lovella:

I bet.

Steve:

All right.

Steve:

Well, thanks for joining us on Kids First Parents.
