It's nice to know it wasn't just me. I watched to episode 4 (stopped at the beginning), hoping it would get better or surprise me as Season 1 did. Then I stopped after the stupid Jennifer reveal. They lost their way and it wasn't worth a season 4 and the writing was terrible. Let's hope The Boys doesn't bollocks season 5.
Thank you so much for being honest. I'm sooooo tired of the hog gobblin of Wes. Your characters can only be so dry before it enters simplistic irony which make it easier to absorb all the absurdity (and or jokes when he bothers) and morphs into so simplistic dry and robotic that i truly teuly struggle to gather the actual intent. I genuinely wonder sometimes if his films are the equivalent of a Rorschach test. You see what you'd like to see, so he doesn't have to bother writing characters. He is literally the feelies. Beautiful, hollow, colorful, vapid, purposely pointless, celebrities, plays on people wanting to seen intelligent. Like if you made up a name and said "of course you know them right? Any plebian absolutely must!" And they lie and say yes because they absolutely loathe the idea of being of average intelligence or wherewithal. And that in itself is not the issue. But propping up mediocre filmmaking absolutely is! When i watch Rushmore i absolutely didn't even consider Wes while watching. All i could think was oh my gosh these beautifully realized characters. The way they meld and interact! Every scene fully delivers, every action has consequences, no one ever feels panicked or overly angry allowing the comedy to flow naturally. When i saw Wes in the credits i was genuinely sad. Because i could see how he arrived at films like moonshine kingdom and Asteroid city... Moonshine was mid point. He'd left the general audience by that point already. Now Asteroid City is desperate Flanderization in an attempt to deliver the same garbage people keep demanding. They want the same movie repeatedly. Its so so so sad. Guillermo Del Toro, Quentin Tarantino, Alexandro Jodorowsky! Every time a new concept a new story, a new energy. But it holds their style. They hold the film, it breathes on its own.
Bro I think you have commented the longest comment on any of my videos. Thank you for speaking your mind and it makes me feel better I am also not alone in my opinions of this film. The analogy you said of people lying so they don’t appear average intelligent is the exact reason I started making reviews and what I experienced studying film at university. The best films aren’t pretentious or meant to be super complex to make yourself sound smart. My favourite film is Labyrinth (1986). Because of how I feel watching it and it is enjoyable. And I don’t care how people perceive me as. Once again thanks for your comment.
Baby Reindeer is absolutely one of the best and most fascinating stories I have ever watched on Netflix - or elsewhere, for that matter. And the questions in the aftermath of this drama, are also intriguing. The deep dive into the psychology of both "Martha" and " Donny" are indeed interesting on so many levels. And this video is good, as well. 😊
@@eliasm8506 ahhh ok, I thought you meant from the stalkers perspective. I wonder if Richard Gadd feels the same way, given the fact he is reliving his past
Saw this dude as polkadotman and thought "this dude would be great in A24 or horror in general" so its nice to be vindicated on that. Also his speach on his recovery from drugs and alcohol was really inspiring, I hope we keep seeing him making moves in films.
Yeah it is a shame, however we don’t know the story behind production. But then again I feel getting an artist would have been just as easy as using AI
They hired an artist who made the basic design and then just enhanced it with AI, it was just the logo for the backgrounds, they didn’t use it to make anything major for the movie. It’s not deep at all and definitely isn’t noticeable.
I was going in with hope because I think Sandler does good "sad"/serious characters, but expecting disappointment because of movies nowadays. I was pleasantly surprised. reminded me of a book by Andy Weir "project hail Mary". I think it was one of the first time I was satisfied not knowing the rest of the unanswered mysteries left at the end.
Yeah, I was also surprised with how this film turned out in the end. Feels like a lot of films with good cast and premises get ruined with their execution.
Hi this is prabhakar reddy Its my childhood dream to enter into film industry but due to my family issues and some circumstances it was not happened. Now iam interested to resart my career in film industry. Is it possible and will i get any support?
This movie was blatant anti white propaganda. The plot was disjointed, the acting was terrible, the dialogue was as wooden as Joe bidens head, the CGI wouldve been subpar in 2007. Also the cinematography was absolute trash.
I enjoyed this movie. Don’t need a bunch of chase scenes or explosions. Liked the random scary/disturbing stuff happening. Loved Rose and her quest to finish watching Friends. And the whole idea of no one in government being in control and the 3 pronged attack is truly terrifying.
yeah agree, the film was carried by it not showing or telling a clear answer and i never thought i would prefer to have an evil cabal running the world instead of nothing at all
Basically, this is most likely how the US/World may end. Generally, the majority of the population today seems to be very greedy, self-centered, and selfish. Very easily deceived. Because we are increasingly lacking in morals and foundational truth, we are easily picked apart for self-destruction. I think this movie hits the nail dead center on its head. We are half a second to midnight because of our own ignorance, prejudices, and stupidity. 🙄
@Sulucnumoh420 Let's just reset your last comment, friend. Before you make a decisional assessment about me, you may want to understand just a little bit about me. I'm not all seeing, but I've been around the globe for close to 6 decades. I do have an educated understanding of human nature and our general motivations. As far as wypipo are concerned, my beautiful spouse of 25 years is a "whypipo" as you term it. So what else is on your mind 🤔 BTW... YOLANDI VISSER is a great 👍🏽 mix!!!
It's just a video of clips of the show I see no editing to be fair lol But that's not a complaint, just do saying it's a weird thing to praise when there's a lack of it (it wasn't needed anyway as it's a commentary/opinion on the series) Other than that, I liked the video a lot and it was well done for sure
yeah I think the anime is supposed to "fix" the movie. Idk if it did that, I only read the comic. And all I gotta say is that the anime is far away from reaching the comic.
i would say the anime expanded and did correct a few mistakes/gripes the film had, but then again a series will always have advantage of having more time to go in depth with characters and story, than a 2 hour film
@@RamosTheSlamos Yeah, but it didn't have the time a comic has. That's why it's worse than the comic. Remember Lisa Miller? She was a character once. Remember Scott Pilgrim? Nah me neither.
@@NationalistsRuinAmerica I thought the anime was addressing the comic more because of the closer characterizations to the comic, like Kim's video store job, along with the Exes' detailed backstories. The anime just features the movie's cast. I mean, it's entirely its own continuity, it just uses what we all know, so the base being the comic or the movie doesn't matter THAT much.
@@JaceAce22 No no no. The anime is based off the movie. Because in the comic Scott ends up fighting and uniting with Nega Scott and learns his full lesson, while in the movie he... doesn't. The comic has a way better ending than both the movie and the anime, because obviously the story is richer, the characters are more fleshed out (except for the exes, but this story was originally about Scott, Ramona and their issues, not Ramona, her exes and THEIR issues, before O'Malley got a divorce and decided to cope with that in the anime) and all characters have their arcs. Because the comic had 2000 pages and not just 8 rushed episodes. The comic is completely disconnected from the anime. So many characters, even main characters get side lined. Kim has no character arc (that kiss wasn't a character arc), Lisa Miller doesn't even appear, Envy Adams gets turned from a character into a cuckold joke, Stephen Stills gets side lined, etc.
when I was 11 I became addicted to cocaine. when I tell people about it, how everyday is horrible and i hate myself, they just say it made them want to do it more.
I didn't hate the show. but imo the show and anime will tell two different stories by the end of season 2. seems like the live action is going the "entertainment" route that will let them show the most popular characters as fast as possible. It's not gonna be terrible especially for non-anime watchers, but it'd be like if they shortened the Harry Potter story to just 3 movies
i imagine netflix would want to make something short and sweet that will entertain viewers. But I imagine that if people that liked the live action only a certain handful would also enjoy the anime.
"I'd have liked it more if I'd known more about it." Yes, I absolutely can fault you. Going into a show without bothering to search for more information but for some reason expecting the same pacing, plotlines, and conflicts is illogical. You liked it less because there weren't more spoilers? If you like a show better when you have more information about, why didn't you wait to watch the show after the reviews came out? Or read/watch some of the billions of pre-season interviews the cast, director, writers gave? That seems like a you problem you shouldn't blame on the series.
The first three episodes were awesome and hilarious; no, fans didn't fabricate liking the season "just so the angel guy and the demon guy would kiss", and you're the superficial one, not everyone else who loved it.
