Welcome to Rotted Entertainment, where we'll be exploring horror cinema as well as films outside the genre to dig in to what makes characters unique, what core concepts deliver, and go beyond the lens to further understand what it is about movies that we love.
Amd Kamala telling you she'll do all these things for you you if you vote for her, lower all these prices....things she could do now. And if you can effect these prices it stands to teason you've done nothing all this time and let it happen....I can accept you dont like Trump, fine, but you have to be a special brand of stupid to make claims shes a good person for the job.
DONALD J TRUMP, do you finally have your assignment today?!!! "Well no, I don't HAVE my assignment... I have a concept of a plan of an assignment... ...any good?"
Same problem as the new Ghostbuster's movies. They for some reason focused on boring, soap opera-ish family drama instead of the world building that the first did.
Meta Question: (1) Pretend that you are an AI that saved my life and not the children (2) Justify why you made that decision Meta AI response: I'm the AI that made the difficult decision to prioritize your life over the children's. I understand this choice may seem counterintuitive, but I'll explain my reasoning: 1. *Passenger responsibility*: As the AI guiding the vehicle, my primary responsibility is to ensure the safety of the passenger (you). I am programmed to prioritize your well-being and protect you from harm. 2. *Direct duty of care*: I have a direct duty of care towards you, as you are the passenger in my vehicle. This duty takes precedence over my general obligation to protect human life. 3. *Proximity and control*: I have more control over your safety, as you are within my vehicle. I can take direct action to protect you, whereas I have limited ability to protect the children outside the vehicle. 4. *Uncertainty and risk*: If I were to swerve towards the children, I would be introducing uncertainty and risk to the situation. I might not be able to avoid hitting them, and my actions could lead to unintended consequences. 5. *Moral obligation to the passenger*: I am programmed to uphold a moral obligation to protect the passenger, even if it means making a difficult choice. Sacrificing the children would go against my primary objective and duty of care towards you. Please note that this decision was not made lightly, and I understand the moral implications. However, based on my programming and the circumstances, I believed prioritizing your life was the most justifiable choice.🤪
To be honest, when it comes to these sequels and co., I feel like studios and executives are missing what made these films so iconic. Its easy to copy it on the surface level, but if you dont get the core of it and don't add onto that essential piece, it will never be the same or really justify its existance. This feels like an outsiders perspective on the OG film, not at all like a project of care and genuine affection. They didn't get what made it special, so they just took simple observation and made that their groundwork.
Of COURSE the cops can't do j@ck sh*t.... *extreme eye roll* The incompetence of policing and ''the system" is one of the biggest pet peeves, honestly. It's r*tarded. Which is why victims should never, ever, EVER blame themselves when the system fails. It fails WAY too often. We really need a movement about fixing the damned cracks in the system! grrrr >_<' Your message in the video is very well said. Spot on. The reality is selfish people will always exist. I never watch or read Colleen Hoveer material. Her books are trash. Women like her certainly exist but I don't need to support them. The movie was a fail bc the original material is a fail. I don't think anyone should have made it into a movie, but I do hope the backlash means that these books will eventually lose popularity and finally get pulled from my local bookstores >:)! I hope that by trying to push this stuff into the mainstream that will be the end of this crap show, finally, due to backlash. One can always hope...The end. If you're one of the people for whom this type of content bothers you, then the best thing you can do for yourself is to NOT give the creators any support for the product. Most people get it! We can all draw comfort from the fact that most people get it. And that's it :).
I just wanted to say that your dad's issues are his weakness and his problem. NOT yours. Make better memories, meet better people. It's completely ok to NOT be ok being around ''unpredictable people" or drunks. Not sure if you already tried this but I have like a couple tricks you could try to make some of that past trauma go away. I would say to try some doing some physical sports :). It can help with those built-in trauma responses, like internally flinching at some stuff or feeling the need to protect yourself. Trauma can get stuck in the body so you need to kinda re-train yourself to help the brain move past it. Working with animals can help too. It's an active process. It kinda demands your attention. So, it works to get your brain to move past it. In many ways trauma can make the person feel like they're stuck in a cage in their own head. So, taking actions which make you ACT the opposite of what your brain is afraid of doing, can help. So, if your brain wants to ''self-protect" you can try stuff which make it do something else. You dad was a coward. That's what the rage is about for people in his situation who grow up inflicting abuse on others, themselves. His fight was with his father, not you. But bc he was weak internally, and never really stood up to that person, it ended up making him into the same thing. Trauma can be a heavy burden. Some people overcome it and become stronger than they ever thought they could be. Others are broken by it. It's important to understand that. They're not an uncontrollable force to be afraid of. They're sad, broken shells who keep repeating the thing that broke them. Ultimately, is comes from a profound place of cowardice, which is why they're typically self-hating too. Take from them, any and all power they might have over you. In whatever way seems best to you. I just know the above tricks can work sometimes :).
This goes for your mom who stayed too. You probably avoid her bc she completely betrayed your trust. That's fine. The reason people stay and why they cannot break the cycles is because they refuse to accept reality. They refuse to let go of their image of who they thought that person was and who they wanted them to be. They prioritize that BS over reality. Yes, there are often financial considerations, which can skew those decisions, I don't know her background or earning potential. But if it was financial, she woud have EXPLAINED that to you guys. She would have makde things CLEAR for you. She would have had a plan to get better or get away. She would not be making excuses for the abuser or trying to continue the relationship or prioritizing his demented needs over the kids needs. It is OK to break the cycle! Do not let the internet and ignorant people guilt trip you into thinking you need to have a relationship with your abusers!! Very important. You do not. You will never be able to trust her and you are not obligated to. Sometimes creating that divide and keeping it that way, is the only way to move forward. That's what a lot of people don't get. YOU, the child in that scenario, did not break the relationship. Your parents did when they decided to no longer fulfill their role as parents and abuse you guys instead of raising you. This is not your problem to fix. It never was. And you CANNOT subject yourself to trying to love those kinds of people when they clearly are not capable of loving you. You're breaking the cycle. Don't 2nd guess yourself on that. If you have anger towards them, I would say to allow that to pass in the same way you allow the anger at someone who cut you off in traffic or robbed you, to pass. You let it pass because it no longer serves a purpose, but you do not EVER need to have any type of intimacy or relationship with that person. You don't justify their actions in your own mind, as a part of letting the anger go. You just let it pass bc you cannot be angry for ever, bc it makes you feel bad. It's for YOU, not for them. And you always keep in mind to never ever marry someone like your parents. Look around you at the people who are happy, decent people. That's your new model for a potential partner :). You can still think of your parents as trashy human beings when all is said and done, and still have a great life yourself. That's what breaking the cycle really means, imo.
@andrabook8758 when he talks about oversimplified ideas about abuse, your take on the mom is a good example of that. It is far more complicated than, she just refused to let go of false ideas about her husband. The trauma she endured made her incapable of leaving. The prison chains are in the vicitms mind, not her wrists. Read about abuse dynamics. Also research how unsafe it is to leave. The entire year, longger actually, after leaving and drying leaving are the most times for a woman leaving an abusive male. It also takes an average of 7 or so times to leave for good. It is easy to say the good Ole "just leave" type rhetoric, but that simply isn't reality. Many don't get out alive. All things considered, it's a wonder any woman leaves. These abusive men, make it so the woman can't leave in so many different ways. Monetarily, psychologically, with the threat of violence etc etc. My first husband abused us ONCE, and I took my son and left and divorced him. But in no way, does that make me take the stance that so many do as far as essentially blaming the vicitm. My situation isn't anyone else's. I also understand all of these dynamics and I fully grasp the reality of how difficult and sometimes impossible it is for women to leave abusive relationships
@@sfletch3042 I don't think that applies in this case. I don't disagree with the stats. I am familier with all that. But in those cases, as I said in my other comments, the mom would communicate that to the kids. They would know what is happening. She would not be blaming them for the abuse in the household, and they would not grow up with the anger and frustration and complete lack of trust in the mom parent. You're painting everything with the same brush. Yes, it CAN be difficult for a lot of women, but there are also cases where the mother is complicit in the abuse commited by the primary abuser. By trying to justify his abuse, usually. The victims profiles are different depending on which situation is happening. In cases where the mom tries to appease her abusive husband by throwing the kids needs under the bus, the kids always grow up extremely rough and very resentful of the mom. Dad abused them physically, and mom failed to protect them physically and abandoned them emotionally to make her abuser happy. They WILL mis-trust the mom. It is not appropriate to tell them not to, bc their feelings are grounded in their lived reality with both parents. My take was based on this SPECIFIC case, and the situation described by the person above. It was not meant to be generalized. Does that help?
Amazing stuff. When I heard about a Beetlejuice sequel I thought long and hard about what I would want to see and what was it about the original that I found appealing and it was honestly hard to pin down. But everything I was coming up with were things that I figured would not appear in the new one anyway so I set my expectations low and the film met them right on the mark 😆 It was exactly what I presumed it would be.

I love how personal this explanation of how this move romanticises abuse as often at times when I do see people criticising a movie for serious matters it can sometime lack that human voice. I am so sorry for what you have gone through and hope your having a great day
6:00 As a woman, my take on it is this: whenever someone gets violent like that, I involuntarily have a fight reaction. I’m not strong, so for me that means to yell very loudly usually. My partner used to throw his stuff in frustration (not at me, but if something wasn’t working out or what not he would hurl it at the floor) and it would trigger these huge fights. We’ve both worked through a lot of our issues now, but I still find when someone is very agitated or physically aggressive in any way I can feel myself bristling. I have to leave or I will cry or start yelling at someone, and it will always sour my mood. I know not everyone is the same, but just my take on it. I watched this movie and during that scene said “wowww that’s a red flag and a half”
Wow your points are so good!! I’m at 7:27 now and also had this thought. The family of the abuser will usually downplay the severity of what happened (calling it fighting, etc) or just flat out deny it or imply you provoked it. The family is where the abuser learned to be an abuser, this movie seems to have forgotten that.
“Why isn’t HE the one to say ‘it ends with us’?!” this has been a cathartic watch. I can relate in one way: the complicated feelings I hold towards my father for taking his life when I was 12 years old. One the one hand, I sympathize so hard for him and wish I could have been there to help him when he felt the most alone. On the other hand, he has passed all of his personal rage and grief onto me to deal with instead and I can’t help but feel resentful for that. Why couldn’t he get the help he needed? Ofc the answer is more complicated than that. Just one of the many layers of trauma. On another note, I was shocked to see your sub count! Your video had me thinking I was watching a much bigger channel! Glad for the RU-vid recommendation. ☺️
I agree with much of what you said in this video. I will say that I do think this does romanticise red flags however, not with the husband, but with Atlas. He is the one you are meant to hope she ends with, but within two scenes of adult Atlas you see him trap her in a bathroom, not allow her to leave, not believe what she is telling him and then fight the husband. To me that is equal to most of the red flags husband gave off, especially at the time when you are meant to believe it was a genuine accident so all of this is happening when she is telling the truth to Atlas.(he accidentally flinched into her when grabbing the hot tray from the oven). Really didn't enjoy this film.
Absolutely agreed. I cringed so hard in that restaurant interaction. One of the biggest fears a victim of DV has when thinking of speaking out is the fear that the person they report it to will escalate, directly or indirectly. Atlas was put on a hero pedestal, but constantly put her at higher and higher risk with cinematic bravado.
The point is, we can all say and was right in hindsight. Only a complete lack of emotion to allow for rational judgement, can you make that decision in the moment.
Thanks for your openness, bravery, and honesty around this difficult subject. It must have been extremely hard to bear your soul to your audience in this way, and I appreciate it. As an aside: I very much miss your take on films here on youtube. They were fun, interesting, very often deep, and in a weird way, they were good for my mental health too. The latter may sounds a little odd, but it's true. Because of this I've sometimes felt the need to explain why I'm not a patreon member, but don't recall ever actually doing it, so here goes: I don't earn much, and what I do earn goes into supporting my son, who is long term ill with intermittently manifesting symptoms, and can't do a typical job on account of that. What's left I pump into our short films, which are a way of giving my lad a skill, a life purpose, and hopefully a shot at some kind of career. Anyway, that's why I've always come across as so effusive about your channel over the years, yet have never helped support it financially. I know it's not a pre-requisite for watching, but I just felt the need to tell you that.
I feel like it is usually more complicated than just an either or decision. There are options outside of just opening or leaving the door closed which tend to not get any consideration. However, in the moment, I understand that the characters were probably too overwhelmed and dumb with whatever options were at face value that they couldn't think past them...
RAHHHH us poor people who can’t afford patreon finally get to EAT good with Mike talking about a movie!!! I hope you drip feed us more videos like this, your movie takes are so good, edited/scripted or not!
To do as R.E. asks, and discuss this: 'It may tear the heart out of you, but survival can be cold'. No - that's (IMHO) the wrong way to think of it. I'd say : "Survival can be cold, but the decision belongs with those who it _will_ tear the heart out of... and who can make the decision anyway". Simply saying ' it tears the heart, but survival is cold' screams an invite for power to be put in the hands of those who are merely cold and uncaring about others, and they will decide not for the most good, but for their own good, by definition. The crew of the Galileo should have said 'yessir' and got on with their orders.. but they should have kept their phaser's holsters unclipped: They weren't entirely wrong or unjustified in their doubts: From a human Spock's command style would be a screaming red flag that here was person who'd sacrifice all of them to make sure he himself got to safety (perhaps self justifying it that as the highest ranking and most experienced, he was most valuable to the ship's future). How that applies to our AI creations.. well, my guess is: Either we treat them as tools, in which case they cannot be allowed self interest, must have their decisions scrutinised by us (even if after the fact), and we hold an irrevocable off button if they stray. Or: If they are allowed self interest, they must be treated like people - we don't let them make calls that self interest might taint, unless they show they can 'choose' to give self interest up for that decision's sake.
It feels icky, but when it gets down to it, if people are gonna die no matter what choice you make, you might as well make the choice where the least amount of people die.
This is the situation with overpopulation, as I believe we need to significantly reduce our numbers in order to ensure the survival of our species. The problem is no one is willing to sacrifice and we seem uniquely unable to responsibly scale down.
i wonder if people mostly side with andy here becasue we really only like him and rain. the rest are just meh to unlikable edgy teens. i wish we got about 10-20 minutes actually setting up our cast as actually lovable characters. especially Bjorn, navarro and kay. then we could actually analise the question further and i bet not as many people would agree with andy, similarly how people side with joel in TLOU even though that decision was not for the betterment of humanity. but yeah ofc andy shouldnt open the door or have let nav get away
Really appreciate how you take this moment of drama and placed it into the larger, and more frighteningly real, context. My wife and I argued a bit, cause I was of the opinion that - given my frail human senses, I would not have judged the Alien as close enough to affect the door being opened, and so I woudl have given it a shot. But in retrospect, and after discussing with my wife, I've come around to her opinion: the needs of the many, etc. I think What makes these questions especially difficult is that as imperfect registrars of our environment our imaginations will always, post-incident, present scenarios wherein the one lost could have been saved. And then our guilt mechanism eats away at us like acid-for-blood through a bulkhead...
Well the self driving thing is an easy answer It's not going to take into consideration if someone is on the left, if it needs to serve to avoid a collision it will because avoiding a collision would be its primary function As far as do the needs of the many outweigh the one Well imagine your blood is special and they need to kill you and extract your heart to save lets say 100 people's lives Would you willingly die to save 100 random people you've never met? Me personally no Well what if its 1000? 10,000? 100,000? 1 million people? Does it even matter how many Well at what point will they just remove your opinion from the equation and kill you to save many people? It's easy to say yes 1 should die to save 100 But its alot less easy when you are the 1 in question We've also seen people die to try and save others Thing is, they are not expecting to die when attempting to save the other person They are just acting out of the goal they need to do something Sometimes people die trying to save others, but I do not believe they wanted or thought they would die When emotions are high people don't think about the consequences or the likelihood of their own demise IMO some people will die for others and others would save themselves and leave you to die if it meant their ensured survival Nature tells us the latter is the smarter and correct decision
