Everything Wrong With CinemaSins: The Shining in 17 Minutes or Less 

Hey everyone, thanks for watching this video and for making the Everything Wrong With CinemaSins series a success! Don't forget-- at the end of every one of these videos is a playlist; you can click that playlist to be taken to more of these videos (there's 76 of them now! Wow lol). If you want more Th3Birdman, follow me over on Twitter ( Twitter.com/Th3Birdman15 ) or Instagram (@Th3Birdman15). Intro music is in the description. Let me know what your favorite sin was below!

"They have way too much Kool-Aid!' Those... those are different flavors, Jeremy.

I'd like to point out another thing about the different stories about the length of time it took Jack to get sober. Jack might have made the decision to quit drinking three years prior, but only managed to completely abstain from alcohol for the last five months. One thing alcoholics will do is leave out little "Breaks" they take in their path to sobriety when calculating the amount of time it took to get sober. Sometimes they'll have "Cheat days" where they don't consider that day to count, or they'll leave out "A little nip here and there". His wife on the other hand is probably keeping more precise track of the times he's consumed alcohol and only considering the last time he's had any to be the actual beginning of his sobriety. Jack may have decided to go sober three years ago, but he might have had little bumps in the road now and again where he had a sip here and there and is just willfully leaving them out because he doesn't think it detracts from his overall sobriety. His wife probably doesn't feel the same way. Stephen King is a recovering alcoholic, so I wouldn't be surprised if this was intentional.

Cinemasins: *locked behind a door in fear* Birdman: *breaks down door* Here’s birdman!

All sins and no research makes Jeremy a dull boy.

Holy crap man, that intro is amazing.

Around 1:01 Birdman put “sredrum” as opposed to murders and I want to applaud him

I want to sin kid Birdman for being cooler than me today.

CinemaSins is not Qualified to Criticize This Film in any Capacity.

6:14 and of course if Wendy hadn't asked how he knew that, the sin would have been "why doesn't Wendy question how he knows they call Danny Doc?"

Jack being unstable is a theme of the story, the book gives way more detail. His father was an alcoholic, leading to a poor upbringing and ultimately Jack becoming an alcoholic with a track record of uncontrollable anger leading him to break his son's arm and occasionally abuse his wife. It's why the book is considered one of King's greats: the hotel is haunted, but also acts as a metaphor for depression and negativity. Jack would not have tried to kill Danny and Wendy if his life were good. But poor upbringing combined with anger management issues and just piss poor luck (lost his job as a professor, can't get anywhere with his novel) just...made Jack a dull boy. Jack being able to try writing his story is actually commonplace in a lot of writers: change of scenery and living conditions can help them get through a block. At the start Jack is feeling better than he has in a while, and acts as a way better husband and father. Eventually the negativity gets to him again and he deteriorates.

This one was straight up offensive. Cinema sins really out here trying to sin a Kubrick fim

"Who cries for Dick Halloran in this movie?" I'd say those of us who read the book. Since, you know, he doesn't get killed in the book. Oh wait, that would be me asking cinemasins to actually do research. Silly me

7:38 Jack having an open book next to him is the equivalent of me just keeping an open tab on my browser while I'm creating or writing something. I might not use it, but it's nice to have in case I need it.

The opening for this one was really cool, there was a lot less to work with but you pulled it off.

Twins: “Come play with us, Danny.” Autocaptions: “Come play with us TINY.”

If I was in a horror movie situation, I'd listen to the black man in the theatre and get the hell out

I remember when Cinema Sins was something funny and Unique. In their earlier Work they would point out legitimate flubs and the Videos would be 3-5 Minutes. Problem is Jeremy was told to beef up the Content and you end up with 18-20 Minutes of Videos with mostly Filler "Flubs" to beef up the Sins Count And im also Black and grew up in a Black Household......Yea We had plenty of Kool Aid in the House, as did many of the Kids I grew up with. A cost efficent way to have Fruit Punch in the House. We were lucky to have the big pack w/ the Sugar Mixed in. And Jeremy is from Pittsburgh. So either he did it on purpose to beef up his Sins or just lived in a Bubble in his childhood

11:36 This is one of my favorite Simpsons moments ever. It never gets old for me.

Favorite sins: 1) Jeremy just called ADOS a cult and I feel personally attacked. You can never have too much kool-aid 2) that what the movie is trying to say, Jack is already borderline insane and this is why the hotel was able to posses him relatively easily 3) this is a legitimate sins of the film. Way to go, CinemaSins

Jeremy: "This does look deliberate, but how am I supposed to know?" Birdman: *Visible confusion*

“The shinning is not a secret.” Thank you. As a Stephen King fan, the shinning is known to many. There are full on organizations made to seek out people with shine and capture to use them. 🤦🏾

1:48 implying that Keaton’s Batman wasn’t a treasure *ding*

Paused at you explaining that it's a 45 minute trip to say that that's addressed almost immediately in the book. When they were telling Jack that the roads were plowed in clearer conditions, that they had their own plow if he had to do it, and the hotel had a helipad, he commented that it didn't seem that isolated, and the owner shot back "Imagine if you, your wife, or your son slipped on the stairs and fractured their skull. Does it still seem 'not so isolated' then?". This was literally- LITERALLY in the first five pages of the book, to set up how helpless he would have been in an emergency. Jeremy would know this if he knew how to read, but he was probably on a high from realizing the Stanley Hotel real-life hedge maze at the time is so small, it's basically just a decoration you can walk in. A toddler couldn't get lost in that thing. That's why they didn't film the side it was on, even though it is a legit sin no one painted in the maze from the climax.

Thank you, he really wasn't paying attention to the movie on this one.

CS: Why didn’t they show jack the kitchen?! SEXISTS!! Birdman: ok boomer

CinemaSins attempted to clown one of the best horror films of all times. But you corrected them, Sir.

It's also been revealed in an old Japanese documentary by Kubrick himself there were 2 sets of Grady sisters and 2 Mr. Gradys. There's the 1920s Grady in the Bathroom and the 1970s Grady who killed his twin daughters. It's meant to show a reincarnation and this is why you see Jack's previous incarnation in the old photo at the end.

Sin 25: Jack also could've said three years instead of five months to present a better image of himself to Lloyd.

The way Jeremy sins some if these scenes really shows how much he doesn't care about the book and also is one of those people that completely ignore the "shining" plot point of the movie, he treats this movie as if its just a movie about a guy going crazy in a hotel and nothing else, as if Doctor Sleep is separate movie and not a sequel

I think it's funny that he sinned jack doing research. If he read the book he'd know jack was doing research on the previous tragedies of the hotel and be was planning to wrote a book about it. He found a lot of articles in the hotel of all the deaths that have happened since the hotel was built.

Saw doctor sleep and they did a great job adapting the books and the shinning movie at the same time

4:47 The opening shot was meant to reinforce the idea that the Overlook Hotel is an anomaly. They have hall ways clearly moving to the left but when the camera pans to another room the hall way is gone and we see a window

"If you wasn't washing the entire house, your ass was next" Lines like this are why I watch this videos. Both the funniest and most relatable shit ever 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The birdman coming in hot with " similar to your trademarks of saying cliche and being stupid"😂😂🤣🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣💀💀💀

This is the first video I discovered on your channel, and I can't tell you how much I appreciate it. I was so angry when I watched the original Cinemasins for The Shining. I admit that I'm bias because it's one of my favorite movies of all time, but this one had so many sins that made absolutely no sense and just weren't funny. You're doing a vital service to RU-vid, and I hope you get recognized for it.

Thing is if I recall correctly, Jack was based off of Stephen King from when he was struggling at one point.

I wanna say that when Dick is at home watching the news, it isn't even the news story that makes him concerned for the Torrences, like CinemaSins says. It's Danny calling him with the Shining which is that high pitched ringing we hear during that part

That's one hell of a intro. Also, in regards to the hedge maze not being there in the front, people would counter that point by pointing out the design of the hotel is impossible. A good example is the window in the office and the placement of the hallway.

That was a super cute picture. How happy! I’m no one but I throughly enjoy your videos. I also enjoy the other guys your videos make fun of. Both make great hilarious content. Thanks for the laughs Th3Birdman.

Never too much Kool - Aid or sugar! May the diabetes flow! Yeeeee! Baby Birdman!

6:36 THATS THE ENTIRE PREMISE OF DOCTOR SLEEP

Nice to see you ripping Jeremy with both one of the best clips of The Simpsons and a Friday burn. Keep it up Birdman.

can confirm, growing up in a black house hold, hell im 29 years old and if you dirty moms floor even now, EVERYONES cleaning up. it doesnt matter who did it , "Youre never too old to get an ass whoopin,"

@9:00. "If Kubrick did this on purpose..." *If Kubrick did this on purpose* I F K U B R I C K D I D T H I S O N P U R P O S E Yeah. A director who shoots 75 takes of the same scene and invents new technology to get exactly the shot he wants and is will to mentally take apart his actors to get the performances he wants might have done this on purpose. Maybe, just fucking maybe, he did it for a reason. But hey: *ding*

RIP Shelley Duvall

Yea. The thing with the floor design changing is more than likely deliberate by Kubrick. He intentionally designed the interior of the hotel to be impossible to map out and constantly shifting to disorient the audience. Even the office jack had his interview in and the ball room are both impossible to actually be there. Apparently in the original original theatrical release and story board of the film the hotel manager hat gave jack the job was insininuated to be in on it the entire time. He appeared at the end were Danny and Wendy are at the hospital and rolls that same ball at Danny, gives a smirk to the screen then the credits roll

13:14 it’s also unclear if this is the caretaker, at the beginning ullman said the caretaker that killed his family was Charles Grady, this is Delbert Grady. There are a bunch of explanations to how the could be the same person or different people but Kubrick left it intentionally ambiguous.

Loved how CS thought people in a panic should yadda yadda, plus the way you broke it down..... Nicely done

No joke, the editing in the intro gave me chills and I’m 100000000% watching the shining tonight. :))

"You can never have too much Kool-Aid, or too much sugar." Preach, Brother, preach.

I've been subbed to CinemaSins for about 3.5 yrs. They were one of my oldest followed channels but thanks to your analysis of their work ethic and quality of their videos I have un-subbed from them. I wasn't giving them many views anyway and I just can watch you tear their video down a week later anyway.

You can tell this man puts so much effort in his Vids, i love it

Jeremy definitely deserved more sins for daring to sin “Come play with us, Danny.”

5:32 Your point is still valid, but just keep in mind there are exceptions. My grandfather was actually the one who taught my grandmother how to bake bread.

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Yesssss! I have been waiting for this one. Your intro is a lit!!!

I know that Jeremy’s whole thing is that the books don’t matter, but it hurts as a huge fan of Stephen King’s The Shining to watch him say Dick isn’t an important character. Like in the movie he is but in the book he basically steps in as a surrogate father/grandfather for Wendy and Jack. Like my dude left his job in Miami, got on a very dangerous flight, drove up a very dangerous road, got attacked multiple times, and still managed to get Wendy and Danny to safety. He did that both in the movie and the book, just in different ways. And like you pointed out, he literally explained the whole premise of the shine. Normally I just ignore cinemasins bs but what the hell was that sin. Also, as a Coloradan who has spent plenty of time on icy mountain roads, that is a hard drive today, on connected interstates with constant snow plows. Mountain passes are closed all the time due to their conditions. Now imagine a 25 mile drive on a road that is never plowed and is very steep, narrow, and windy. There’s not a chance you are able to go up and down without a snow mobile and even then it would be rough. That’s the whole reason they need a caretaker in the first place and don’t just hire someone from the town to drive up. What was the logic in that sin

Cinemasins interrupts The3Birdman at 14:04, in his own video lol

Past-Birdman was so cute as a kid lol

Thank you sir, you are a national treasure

If your brother ever comes as a guest on the channel and you don't name his character TheBirdM4n. I am not implying their will be riots. I am straight up telling you.

I noticed the redrum in the subs. Nice

R.I.P Shelly Duvall.

intros are getting better and better :) you rock birdie

My theory: There was never a hedge maze. Are your minds blown yet?

What traditional man spends any amount of time in the ( door dash ad ) kitchen. 🤣😂🤣

"Who cries over Dick Halloran?" People who read the damn book and actually pay attention to movies!

Best...... Intro......... Anywhere........ Ever.....

Another point to the 5 months/3 years thing: Jack even says to himself that he's been sober for 5 months but he tells Lloyd that he hurt Danny 3 years ago. I dunno what it means but the two different timelines are definitely meant to be noticeable and like a disparity. And ANOTHER point to the money thing: Lloyd explicitly tells Jack "his money won't work here" so even if that money IS real, there is still a supernatural element: bc that's material money and Lloyd is not a material person. And I didn't know about the REDRUM thing meaning Wendy's murder! That's so cool!

Dude this intro is pure art

Jeremy just uploaded EWW IT: Chapter Two and I'm praying you cover that one too. Your IT (Part One) video was top.

I gotta say your intros are always cracking but this one I skipped back three times coz of how damned perfect it was. Well done Mr Birdman, Sir. Well done.

Th3Birdman: You can never have too much Kool-Aid Me: there's a pretty large group of people in Jonestown that had too much Flavor Aid, if it counts

Th3Birdman: Have you never heard anyone say "I've got a good feeling about you"? Oh wait, Nevermind. Me: Holy Shrimp, You Flippin killed him dude!

Heeeeere’s Birdman! 🪓 🚪 P.S: Love this video!

Catch me out here rewatching all of birdmans eww cinemasins videos because my brain has registered his voice as calming

Damn... This is very juicy montage in the beginning!

Thanks for doing this. The only reason I even watched Cinema Sins vs The Shining was out of curious disbelief! And yeah, city of straws in that episode. Seems like Jeremy will sin a movie just so that one of his jokes may work and that helps some of his videos out but in the case of The Shining and a few other classics it just comes off as cheap and annoying. I also must commend you and your swift retaliation. You struck hard, accurately and speedy friend! Keep up the good work

you are a man of a good taste putting pogo's intro like that.

Almost all of his sins can be explained if you have any knowledge of the books as well. Edit: spelling

You completely deredrum CinemaSins with this one!

Awesome video birdman

As a furry, I can totally agree with Th3birdman on the fact that (some) furries are scary. Seriously, I question the fandom a lot.

3:33 I think the reason for this is that it was supposed to be a subtle part of the paranormal stuff that is going on, throughout the whole movie, if you pay close attention, the structuring of the hallways and the main hall of the hotel, is physically impossible, wisecrack mentioned it in one of their videos about the movie.

nice one. (I also enjoy Cinema Sins. A lot.) Also love the music montage at the beginning. Well done.

God damn your Intros are always so good, put together so well

Great video love music and editing!

Jack Nicholson reminds me of trevor Phillips.

“I mean, wouldn’t you find it a little weird if someone called you a baka outside these videos?” MY SIDES

I love everything about that beginning

That axe sync was dope and so cool Very noice 👌🏼

That intro is so amazing I've come back to this video countless times just to watch it again

My mom dressed my brother and I alike too, we're 4 years apart.

At 1:02. I saw that birdman. Very clever. I love when you do that too. lol

Actually taking Danny to a hospital for visions/hallucinations is literally the opposite of overkill

Let's go!! I've been waiting to see how you react to certain things he said in his video!

I should point out that the close-up of the Grady daughters-the very still Cinemasins used for their own fucking thumbnail-clearly shows the girls are not twins. They aren't even the same height.

CinemaSins turned from a genuine film critique into that annoying guy who talks over the entire movie and starts all of the sentence with "uhmm... Actually". While missing the entire point of the movie

I doubt anyone will see this- but there was so many things that Jeremy could have sinned about this movie; mainly in regards to all the errors that was made in adapting the film which lead to King openly despising it.

These opening cuts were amazing 👏👏 Great work...
