Children of Men | An Audible Apocalypse 

I kinda understand german so i kinda understood what shes saying. But it didnt shook me that she was both german and racist. Its not the first time in history

grumman f14 tomcat Generalizing is not a good idea, sir

@@grummanf14tomcat40 stereotype. And also rascist.

@@Coldwater-sw6me I mean it was a joke I don’t think he meant it

@@NoiseFlippin he was probably making a joke

I know!! Why did I cry so much! I think it was because it was showing us that everyone has become so devoid of hope they’ve lost their humanity, but when they see the baby we see that they all truly are one humanity.

@@randomthoughtstheories6681 that's a great interpretation of this scene

Every time

It's a very powerful scene. They just stop fighting each other once they see the baby. But once the baby is gone they resume killing each other.

It’s one of my favorites. I definitely recommend it. Amazing flick

The only movie I've watched three times in the theater.

DO IT!! has HALF-LIFE 2 vibes

MIGHT?!?!?

tevp90 well, yeah. I still haven’t watched it... I don’t watch many movies

@Tjerk Zweers She's complaining about being in the same cage with black people, from what I could understand. She is obviously not native German and has a pretty thick accent.

@@GUPGUP72 From what I could make out: “... (Sie) versteh’n nicht ... meine Familie, mit diesem Schwarzen…” - "... (you) don't understand ... my family, with this black person...".

@@feuerstrassen9446 diesen implies plural, "with these plack people"

@@GUPGUP72 She says "mit dieseM", as far as I can hear.

Didn't even register what language he named it as, but funny that I did pick up that it was German, just by it's inflection... 😁

Such as? Which ones do you recommend after this one??

@@danballe Well, the channel is mainly about video game essays, so I expected one of those to be the first to blow up, if I had to choose a video to recommend I'd say the Dishonored ones, simply because it's my favorite game, but there are may other videos that are equally as amazing, just browse his videos and see what you like.

@@THExRISER I went ahead and checked one of his vids about something that I already watched: his piece on 2001: A Space Odyssey. Never thought about the Human Error. I never studied computer engineering nor programming , however I do understand the concept of Bad Coding. Awesome videos. Thanks for the reply/suggestion.

@@danballe Oh I'm glad I could be of help, and yeah I also watched that video and it offered me a different perspective on the story from what I usually heard around.

*Girl

Thanks! I still get a little choked up thinking about how obscure the Jade Amulet is. I honestly hope that I get like 100,000 subscribers one day just so that I can get things like the Jade Amulet and Planescape: Torment the attention they deserve

@@Leadhead I'm sure RU-vid has seen your comment through their algorithm

@@Leadhead hopefully the algorithm gifts you,ypu really deserve it, with your brilliant and well made and written videos, keep up the good work, as ypu always have, and most likey will be

I don't think what you say it's clichè, some movies are very dense in their details and subtleties and get better with every rewatch, this is surely one of those. I hadn't noticed the suicide pills before, so I guess it's high time I watch this masterpiece again.

cool!

It's the viewers that make it worth it :)

I had the same reaction watching it in the cinema. My heart was in my mouth and the sheer shock of the experience stayed with for days. Really needs to be experienced on the big screen i

So this book is worth reading? I always forget it exists and have loved the movie since it came out.

@@mykelmellen2378 personally, yes. I must admit I'm not a great reader but I've enjoyed the book greatly

what about Pineapple express bro!? kidding.

Also the choice of music is also pretty standout in that scene.

Too well.

Never read the book, but the movie is so damn good that I see no need to

Oh that's definitely still on the list, especially now that I'm talking about mechanics more. Few games have game feel as good as holtine

First time or another?

@@grummanf14tomcat40 it was the first time, it was great!

@@anonymjavel3925 :D

I would like to see that list.

@@comradejosephstalinoftheus8698 www.imdb.com/list/ls075155407/

Nice list, I'm glad to see Brazil on there.

@@comradejosephstalinoftheus8698 thank you sir.

@@austinricky I don't think Gladiator is worthy of that list.

It's funny you say that, Mark Fisher starts his book 'Capitalist Realism' by talking about how this movie is an allegory for late-stage Capitalism. The world we exist in, like Children of Men, has chain coffee bars which co-exist with refugee cages. A society where 'crisis' has been normalized and the revokation of 'emergency powers' (e.g. The PATRIOT Act) is no longer considered conscionable by the mainstream, we are kept in a perpetual state of fear about war/terrorism/disease/'destruction of our culture'/refugees etc. Our current Capitalistic society, much like the 'Battersea Station Ark' which serves as a horde for classical works for a wealthy elite (in the movie), has effectively assimilated all culture and history within itself. Tradition, ritual, culture etc. has been reduced to mere exchange value, to artefact and aesthetic, leading to a culture in stasis (and as the movie asserts, without 'new people', without new eyes and a new generation, that is no culture at all). This coupled with things like COVID and the looming threat of climate change, which will bring flocks of climate refugees to our shores and further authoritarian measures with it, well, I think this *is* the apocalypse we've got.

It's funny how you say that, because in Farenheit 451, the main plot and cause of the "apocalipse"(the reason as how the world ended like that) isn't about the "opressive govern" as everyone would say; but about how all the countrys around the globe accepting that "everything can be offensive" and did turn criminal all books to avoid people getting offended. The reason for the end of the world on the book was "accepting the differences" into "our" society. Sick book... OMG sry for my bad grammar, english is not my first language ;-;

What kind of warped mind do you have to have to want an apocalypse?

@@galek75 im not really sure i just hoped it be more quick and something ive never thought of

@@romanludwig4431 like an asteroid impact? I guess...

Someone else said in another comment it’s a local language where they live called Sinhala

Bullshit

@@grummanf14tomcat40 just watch data.oecd.org/pop/fertility-rates.htm

@@grummanf14tomcat40 Not at all. Read the book Estrogeneration.

Stfu geezer children literally are the future if you think overpopulation is such a problem start with yourself first POS
