FYI: As of this moment, RU-vid is saying this video can't be monetized! Keep in mind, I haven't made a dime yet on this channel, but as view rise, etc one day I might and having a video that I worked on for several days which will have ZERO benefit if/when more viewers show up is the fastest way to run me off the platform. There are NO issues here. I even made sure not to cure this time assuming there may be some Walsh fans show up. Only thing I can think of is that RU-vid is just proactively not allowing monetization of a movie they deem "problematic." Feel free to tell them what you think...🤬 Thanks, MAB ETA: After nearly 48 hours they determined that this video IS "advertiser friendly" without ever telling me WHY their algorithm decided it wasn't right out of the gate and without me making even the slightest change. This is what drives creators insane about this place... And the entire time...not a single word from a human.🙄
Very good analysis, I hope you channel grows, perseverance is the key. At least that's what I've been told. Seriously, opinions like yours are needed, especially in today's world. Best of luck.
Hey, glad to see that you put out a new video (and the choice of topic...Nice)! Great summary and review of this documentary! Sorry to hear about YT demonetizing this video. As we know, they do that sort of thing...And no, neither this movie, nor your review of it, should not be considered 'problematic. If anything is 'problematic', it would be YT and all other platforms that censor things like this. 'Ministry of Truth' anyone? Keep up the good work man!
Thanks! I hate to bitch about RU-vid but damn... In this case, as soon as the video had uploaded and while I was in the process of finalizing the behind the scene stuff I do before publishing the video, they told me the video was not "advertiser friendly." did tell me why, the way a copyright violation will point to a particular section for instance. Just..."Sorry, this isn't ok." And their "solution" is to appeal it, which will take up to 21 days to hear back...essentially nullifying the video as being valuable in any way since a review video is always got a time limit based on how long it's in the public consciousness. It's clearly designed to frustrate creators. And I've argued with them on Twitter about it to no avail. And like I said, I've yet to make any money here which is fine. Actually, I've made about $70 but until you get to $100 they don't even bother to cut you a check.😂 But they ruin any incentive of TRYING to grow when they do things like this. All told, this one took about 40 hours of production time, from writing the script, recording and editing the audio, creating graphics and editing video. To then have them arbitrarily tell me it's not ok, with no specifics as to WHY means that if/when the channel DOES grow enough to make any money what they did would have actually cost me...so it needs to be delt with ASAP. Anyway...sorry to rant. Glad you enjoyed it. I was happy with it, and thought the movie was funny and well done. Glad to have you here. and be sure to spread the word if you can. That seems like the best remedy for dealing with RU-vid at this point. Thanks, MAB
@@themiddleagedbaby Rant Away! I hear ya! I have a friend who runs another YT channel (I told him about yours, btw) and I'm sure he would definitely 'feel your pain'!
the video quality is top notch :) YT recommended to me this video, so I guess more subs will come soon :) looking at this topic as a EU citizen I ask myself - what is wrong with USA? how is this crap being constantly shoved in people's throats? I miss the old Netflix and Disney (and SW ofc) which is now all about DEI
1st, thanks for the compliment...much appreciated! Glad to see YT recommended it. Most of my videos, at least from what I can see behind the scenes, are not normally mentioned to people watching video like mine, so they rarely hit. Glad to see they got it right with you. 2nd, gosh...I wish I knew. But I think it's much more embedded than many in this space think, which is why I'm not as optimistic of it crumbing any time soon. Hope I'm wrong. If you're new here and you enjoyed this, I'd suggest looking around a bit at some older videos which might resonate with you. Some are straight reviews, but many or more topical and it sounds like you may find something you like there. Either way, thanks for watching and leaving such a nice comment. Much appreciated! MAB
Great Video as Usual. Great to see your back ..if I missed some ..sorry Dude. Keep up the outstanding work. Take Care...why can't everybody just get along ...like back in the day. 😊
Thanks, man! Last one I did was Deadpool & Wolverine and before that Avatar, so you're probably all caught up.😉 I've had one in the works addressing kind of why I'm finding it hard to make any (because everything seems to suck and studios refuse to make anything new) and that'll probably be next up. As for the movie here...dunno. I'm still kind of stunned that we're where we are. At no point in my life have race relations seemed as bad as many seem to make them out as being today. Now, on a day to day basis living my life everyone DOES get along, and living on S. Louisiana we've always been diverse. I've seen ZERO indication that everyday people are being drawn into this...but clearly many are when you see polling and hustlers like Walsh illuminated here. It's very frustrating for sure. Great to see you and glad you're still around! Thanks, MAB
