Why can’t any of these “lol highschool” movies just take place in a college. It would all be basically the same but it would give you the ability to cast people who look “age correct”
It's easier to justify teenage characters doing suicidally stupid shit than college-age characters without introducing alcohol. In other words, lazy screenwriting.
I do remember seeing the ads frequently, but I knew it’d be dumb the first time I saw an ad. This was the “Possession of Hannah Grace ads” of its time, I feel.
*Ummm...* the bank is required to report to the FBI every time you move more than $10k. There's no way the FBI wouldn't have some questions immediately.
Not only that. I'm pretty sure most banks won't even complete the transaction before inquiring with the owner of the account about it. In this day and age banks have become pretty paranoid, and rightfully so, about these sort of things.
Actually, they only start doing CTR's (Currency Transaction Reports) when you're moving *cash* over 10K. If you're buying cashier's checks, or just using checks in general, it's generally fine if it's not *too* unusual. Now, this? This is fucking weird, and I'd be asking questions. I'm a bank teller, btw.
newLEGACY boy eh I thought it was an okay movie. It wasn’t great by any means, the acting is really bad sometimes, but the concept is kinda interesting. It just wasn’t pulled off very well, I give it a 5-6 outta 10.
Why is that girl so popular? Wouldn't there be people doing much crazier things than just running around a store in their underwear? People do more insane things for free.
There's an entire manga series that is basically this but what the fucked up people of the world would ACTUALLY watch. It's called Deadtube, and it's basically what it says on the tin.
It's not really that funny. Anarchism as a political philosophy is largely focused on democracy, with many anarchists advocating forms of consensus decision making, or other kinds of direct democracy, with the overall political structure being egalitarian.
Thats what anarchism is goddammit. Anarchism is the most radically democratic system possible, depending of the type of course. Anarchocapitalism is slavery while Anarchocommunism is lit
@@RobertKuusk No, read some theory. Anarchism is basically: all hierarchies have to be abolished with the exception of the ones that serve people and are running from botton to top. Read some leftist theory on anarchism..
these "internet death game" movies remind me of the one time someone did say they where going to stream an actual murder on the "dark" web and millions of people tuned in to watch... a bowl of soup. lol
I love the trope that just because someone is reading a book, they're intelligent or creative. I've read "Crime and Punishment". I'm still a fucking dumbass.
Just because you read something doesn’t mean you questioned or reflected upon what you read. I once met a speed reader who bragged he could go through a thousand pages in a night. Ask him what he thought of the book however and his jaw would simply go slack with disinterest.
The most offensive thing about this movie is how nice those dark web sites looked. Seriously, dark web looks like the dawn of the internet kinda websites 90% of the time.
Funny thing, I enjoyed most of this movie. Then, as soon as “hacking” was introduced and Machine Gun Kelly showed up in the last twenty minutes dressed up as twink mad max at a neon antifa rally my interest waned
I sometimes wonder if people who actually operate on the dark web find movies like these offensive, the same way scientists hate bad sci-fi or lawyers hate crime dramas.
It's just a matter of mainstream writers trying to tackle something they clearly know NOTHING about. Look at news reporters and guns, or news reporters and video games(hell, even Hollywood actors hold the controller like it's alien tech, and they just look weird as shit and like they've never actually controlled a game) or when anyone remotely familiar with software see a movie/show/news report involving "hackers" lol
@@blizzardregulus You just fell for the dark web trope again. When most people talk about the dark web, they refer to the _deep_ web. In essence, it's just the web you can't access via normal search engines by Google, for example. Literally every person has interacted with the deep web. Used a cloud service? That's part of the deep web. The dark web, like, the actual one, is pretty much just the illegal part of the deep web if grossly oversimplified. However, due to the muddling of both definitions, the dark web is often used to refer to both the deep and dark web. And due to the trope, the entire deep web is considered illegal. TL;DR No, for accessing the deep web no one would be arrested. Else, you would be arrested already. Accessing the actual dark web is a different story, but still not a certainty.
MichiPeachiii not all of them, the dumb ones stand out. The bad shit they do gets noticed. The good ones stop the bad shit, and no one finds out about it.
The movie makes the NYPD look stupid. The NYPD does not know about you breaking the law in real life. The NYPD never follow the crime scene preservation steps.
@@danknecoarc7174 they’re saying that the color pallet in the movie was only two colors. alfred hitchcock’s movies were in black and white, so the two colors gael is talking about are black and white lmfao
the only thing it's done is make people think that their thoughts matter . . . I wish we could go back to the time where everyone just suffered in silence. much less obnoxious back then
Hiring actual teen actors is legally such a pain in the ass that Hollywood usually just says "fuck it" and hires men and women in their 20s to play teen characters.
Discount Chocolate then why not scrap the high school theme altogether and make the setting play in a college instead. I don’t think the teens would care much, clearly the target demographic of this „movie“ or are they trying to compete with Japan on the Highschool genre
6:09 Fun fact: the movies _Schindler's List,_ _The Pianist_ and _Son of Saul_ secretly have a shared universe! Apparently it's some universe where some event called "Holocaust" happened?
As a new yorker I could confirm no one owns cars they're all just randomly generated cars and if they get into an accident it teleports a random new yorker so they can pretend to be a driver
how am i supposed to believe dave franco is a teenager when he runs around shirtless and looks like he has the muscle mass of a fully grown man? What teenager looks that beefy?
@@voidofspaceandtime4684 right, it's more just a bunch of people on youtube. still accurate for them though, and IIRC, there were significantly less players than viewers in the movie.
This film reminds me of that crappy 'Gamer' movie, made by a bunch of grumpy old guys who grumble about the youth of the world not living like they did when they were young, so they make propaganda movies like this to try and stick it to them.
@@dynostretch9215 which is ironic because their parents from the 40s and 50s grumbled about them in the 60s and 70s not living like they did when they were young haha, its just silly
I thought the sam thing lol. You would think he'd know the term being such a movie buff but maybe he doesn't know too much about the technical details of photography
"Show us another bridge from a distance" I swear when I watched that movie, every 10 minutes there would be an aerial shot of them riding the motorcyle
It even has the same "shot in the laptop's perspective" idea that Unfriended did, only difference is that the film doesn't come to a complete halt when someone is online chatting or doing anything else besides video chatting. Another difference is that John Cho is very likable and you're rooting for him unlike Unfriended where the characters are obnoxious and annoying, you want them dead immediately when they're onscreen.
This movie would've been a bit better if it was set in an alternate universe where this would have been totally socially acceptable and the law allowed the game to exist.
Yeah definitely better. The fact that no one outside the "circle" cared is so fucking dumb. In a world where moms are scared of fortnite. And where secret pedos on tiktok are uncovered.
18:58 Actually, shooting people in the foot or the leg isn't less dangerous than shooting anywhere else because there are many vital arteries there I think.
You also have to consider the shear amount of physical therapy you’ll have to go through when shot in the shoulder. A good chunk of your muscles will be shredded in your shoulder and in all likely hood you’ll never be able to move it normally again.
Yeah, but at least the foot is far away from the upper body. If she miscalculated, the bullet would be less likely to end up in one of his vital organs.
Subclavian arteries are in shoulders. Plus you can pull a Dick Cheney and get their face or neck by accident. Go for foot. That's how amputated diabetics still hobble about.
* Thanos snaps fingers to turn all Emmas in this world into papyrus from undertale the proceeds to diddle his raisins at the thought of one dressing up as Lady Death rattling his bones. *
This movie sure has fibers that transmits impulses of sensation to the brain or spinal cord, and impulses from these to the muscles and organs. it has nerve
THANK YOU for addressing the dave-franco-teen-heartthrob issue! all my friends were obsessed with him when we watched this film and i never understood why he looks like a thumb
20:02 I love how the one key she hits is fucking X. She hits X to "execute" whatever code she's doing when she should be hitting enter, or clicking, or probably a function key. In fact, X is a command is used to cut text. It looks like she's holding the option key too, in which case option x would be the code used for an approximates symbol
@uNnHkP8mza adam applauded that one subtle advertising thing in unfriended and ripped the movie a new asshole at the same time, so if that shitty of a movie had one good thing, then this movie has a lot to celebrate
You've gotta love the image of American Youth that Hollywood loves to portray as commonplace across the country. Set this film in Nebraska and you'll have some WACKY dares like climbing to the top of a corn silo and making crystal meth in a trailer in your grandma's back yard.
7:41 doggo is about to point out "I'd rather watch her trans brother" but adam takes the floor and he holds that thought for way longer than I have the ability to without forgetting or blurting it out over them. Impressive.
fun fact about this movie! MGK actually wasn't originally cast in it; they simply ended up recording him in his natural habit abusing teenage girls and decided to make a movie around the footage.
