It's men in black in the Old West, but way more racist.

We saw Wow, Wild West, so you know what that means?

Now it's time for, how did this campaign?

We're going to have a good time, celebrate some failure, not just be a hater, because you know you wonder, how did this campaign?

Let's follow in the mediocrity of subpar art.

Perhaps we'll find the answer to the question, how This Get Made? Hello, people of earth, and welcome to How Did This Get Made? We have a very fun show for you today. The movie is Wild Wild West. I am joined by my two co-host, Jason Manzukas. How are you? Pretty good. How are I, Paul? And you and Diane Rayfin, how are you? Hi, Paul. Both back in the studio. And today a very special guest, writer, director, podcaster. Kevin Smith, welcome. This is just a proactive way to make sure none of my flicks ever get discussed on this fucking show. Pretty genius. The moment I saw this podcast pop up, I said, I got to get out on that show, Facts. Otherwise, it's going to be like episode 16, Jersey Girl. How do fuck did this happen? So now you'll have to think twice. By the way, we'll do Jersey Girl if you're the guest. But I'll have to come back. Totally. Oh, because I can tell you what happened there. Oh, perfect. That's a great version of this show. This one, I don't have as much insight into how it happened, but I do play, to say a role would be putting it to Grandi. Well, you play a play Will Smith's role in this movie. I play what nobody ever realized is how black really good. Really. And nobody gave me any credit, you know?

Because they were still mad about Mara.

No, this is a movie that I have such tangential connection to.

But when I heard about this, it made me laugh so hard.

I mean, so the big thing in this movie is the end piece is a gigantic 80-foot mechanical spider.

Totally normal.

Yeah, totally normal.

Which, to be fair, before we scare it a flick, when you saw this trailer, you were like,

holy shit, they may have cracked the code.

Yeah.

Like, this may be the best movie of all time.

They found a way to combine the old West and fucking steampunk and all this stuff.

And the track record's great.

You've got men in black. He's been, Will Smith, have been like, Independence Day. You're like, all right, these guys. Very fucking Sonnenfeld, man. Like the legendary director, hell of a shooter. Like, he knows how to work humorously. Yes. Big budget. And also like a good movie to be translated or a good TV show to be translated into a movie. Sure.

It's like, have you ever seen? Has anybody ever watched the TV show? Yeah. Oh, I haven't. Oh, the TV show's great. It's like James Bond in the Old West. And who was the star? Robert Conrad. Conrad. Who? Who? Who? Who? Is the Who? Is the TV, the TV show a two-hander?

Like the movie?

Yeah, exactly. And basically Robert. Wait a second. Don't be dropping the fucking industry lingo and whatnot. You lost me. We lost half the audience. Go, two-handers. Is this a porn? Two-hander. It's the first episode of a meat cute in it?
