Kingsman - What's the Difference? 

Yesss totally agree

Same

Fr i saw it for the 1st time last month.

IKR

Absolutely agree.

Just Some Guy without a Mustache eh I prefer the Pub fight scene

Watch more action movies then. Especially Asian ones

​@@wahidahmed2525 Personally, the Kingsman fight scenes are the most brilliant and deliciously choreographed sequences I've ever viewed in my entire life. Asian inspired fight scenes are always so fast-paced and dizzying to watch, with an extremely serious undertone and the same old kung-fu and chi moves ( believe me as a half-Asian, I've seen my fair share.) It's just hard to feel anything. Although everything is subjective so enjoy whatever you want to :)

@Drake Barnes what are you saying lol. I'm talking about how there are action movies with better choreography than this one. And it's not just Asian ones Hollywood ones like John wick too

@@self-proclaimednimwit2263 just curious which Asian action movies did you watch that made you feel like that? Cause honestly it feels like you're talking about generic Hollywood kung fu flicks(or maybe some bad Chinese ones) lol. And this take is objective not subjective.

Daniel Lanctot Welcome to adaptations of Mark Millar books. He isn’t a very good writer.

The One and Only Michael McCormick isn’t old man Logan and civil war highly regarded

Most of the best movie adaptations are of very meh books/comics with good overarching ideas and bad execution. Spielberg knew this in the 70s and 80s and many comic adapters know this now

Sir Pugsalot And Crash won an Oscar. What’s your point?

The One and Only Michael McCormick Damnit. I was going to say that. Millar isn’t even a decent writer. He’s an idea man, but anything not being shite beyond the initial pitch is far above his skills.

Elton fucking steals it in the second. His lines are iconic. "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME, YOU FUCKING BITCH?!" "Isn't that supposed to be Saturday?" "What day is it?" "Uh, Wednesday." "Exactly." *proceeds to stomp the guard's foot with his massive fucking platforms* "Darling if you get me out of here, you can have backstage passes and so much more." Just- iconic lmao. Literally one of the reasons I became such a huge Elton fan

He was hilarious in that film.

You mean, the BEST difference

Beuler i know man, deadass my favorite part of the movie

Elton looked like he was having a ton of fun, and I always enjoy watching actors have fun with a role

The fight scenes particularly

Come on... Harry! Manners Maketh Man.

No, Merlin

The church fight!

Taron is my favorite actor. I feel like he's incredibly underrated for his skills. He's an amazing actor who's very well at portraying emotional scenes, does parkour, his own underwater scenes without CGI, sings, and dances He's only done a few movies, but he's gotten great roles. But after the Rocketman hype was over, people stopped talking about him..

Denni Wintyr Yup. That’s why he’s basically made a career out of doing those concepts justice.

I’ve heard really bad things about Mark Millar’s writing.

George Lucas?

@@mackielunkey2205 yeah, his writting is super hit or miss. He had some truly terrible ones like Ultamatum and Civil War, but some really good comics like Red Son. I can't speak to all of his work, but he is a bit of an edge lord.

@@henrybelman7424 civil war isn’t terrible. Stop

Fire that proofreader, guys!

The gibb

Hahaha I noticed that

Yeah, but I've given up on correcting stupid mistakes like that on RU-vid. I think a lot of time creators purposely make dumb mistakes so that people will tell at them in the comments, which tricks the YT algorithm into suggesting it on other people's feed. It's a real cheap, underhanded tactic to up the views.

I said the same shit in my head when I heard the mess up 🤣🤣

It's not Elton wanted him in his biopic after working with him.

Mr. Friendship Everything comes full circle.

brotherdandy no comes golden circle

Don't forget; 2016, Taron Egerton played Johnny the Gorilla, who performs "I'm Still Standing" (and Elton John Classic) at the finale.

@@Dragon1813 Proving, that not only does he have the acting ability, but also the voice to portray Elton John.

10secondsrule yea i don’t know what that means

rock which part do you not understand

We most definitely have a LOT of problems in America, but I’m glad our rich assholes aren’t *noble* too. It would be too much.

@@rawrbeez6625 being rich is the new nobility.

@@gabbar51ngh "what's new?"

Alot. The setting. The time period. The motivations.

Geez i never realized just how many movies and other stuff is based/inspired by Heart Of Darkness, which i have spent the time underlining every instance of the both N words

He never said Ultimate X men he said the Ultimates

Listen to 0:52 to 0:55 it's clear he said The Ultimate X-Men

@@bobgarlen Slip of the tongue aside, they clearly show a picture of the Ultimates, not Ultimate X-Men.

ttd0000 this is why we use all senses if we have the ability to. It increases comprehension.

They really have to fire their proofreader

To me, Kingsmen is one of the rare examples of the movie being better than the book. The Crow is another one.

The first time I watched it I thought it had a potential of being as huge as the franchises like LotR and Harry Potter. And I still do. I thought the Golden circle was even slightly better than the first movie, but most people think it was bad :(

"So the film improved just about everything?" True for most of Millar's work.

Mark Millar is a hack writer, so all the films adapted from his works always tell a better story. Even Wanted. It’s a bad film, but the comic is utter trash

@@jliller how much of Millar's work was made into a movie? This, Kickass which was fairly faithful and what else? I don't count Avengers because, except for a few details, it had nothing to do with The Ultimates.

Cause Mark Millar is a terrible writer that wastes great ideas.

It's not better, it's just modernised. It's not original enough to be better. Without the original there is nothing.

@@erasethepatterns1 its a launchpad to new ideas. In this case the adaption was a far better movie than a direct translation of the comic. Modernising is not the same as giving it a greater mythology by more effectively representing the themes of the british spy fiction that engaged with an international audience. If this had been the standard studio response to a franchise, it would usually focus on a preconceive narrative born from a committee rather than a storyteller. You gotta give credit where credits due. My take home from this video was that the filmakers done good with an interesting idea that spawned a greater tale. This is the British that modern englanders want the world to think they are. If its was up to Hollywood generally, they would play the Villains

@@erasethepatterns1 No matter how original an idea is, it isn't worth much unless it's well executed. And let's be honest, "dude spies lmao" is as far from original as it gets.

@@NucleaRaptor When doing an adaptation to put it in a movie format a lot of sacrifices are made. Particular if its a novel. In many cases the original is just a blue p rint where a group of writer modified to better fit the new format. Of course sometimes those changes are for the better and other time its for the worse. In this case I like the new mythos of the KIngsMan over secret service. So its for the better in my opinion (not having read the actual comic am not certain)

His death scene in the second one made me tear up. Him singing his favorite song as a distraction was amazing

Of what's significance is that?

@@saratov99 They are comparing differences between the comic and film. The main bad guy of the comics being downgraded into a professor who just kinda dies mid-way is a neat detail, even if the main villain's plan don't really change.

gross

Gay

Neither of those people are chavs though, so I feel like we need a 3rd in the mix too.

Jusy say "if they fuse or combine" Yeesh, if they did that, what they will het is AIDS not Eggsy

Jesus Christ - what's with peoples obsession with Tom Holland? Terrible actor who has had one decent movie, the impossible!

Thats a good word for it

Same thing with men in black. The original comic wasn't that long or even that good. The movie with will Smith worked so well they made it a movies franchise. Spanning animated series and later comics based of the movie rather than original Comics

Gjob to whoever does the research 🤣

In the book Stanley was overweight before going to camp, but because he loses the weight at the end and it would be challenging for Shia to gain and lose weight for the film, they decided not to do that. That's the biggest difference I can remember.

Monica Brich even then Shia wasn’t that thin or that fat. Enough to be realistic for the final part but also enough to earn the name Caveman

@@monicab7656 one was about a hole. Shia is a hole.

The magicians also comes to mind

Except Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit in my opinion at least. They admitted they didnt know what they were doing yet it cane out great. Or, at least good. I love reading, but the books just had too much detail. Half of it was them walking, a quarter of just filler, but the last bit was incredible writing. A writer who I think NAILS detail is Brian Jacques. His Redwall series is my favorite and the back story to how he started is very heartwarming.

@@bombboy3427 yeh he used to tell all those stories to blind kids so his attention to detail is well earned and practiced

@@billyrobinson6815 Yep, absolutely love his descriptions. Not all his books are great but some I will definitely read several times.

The book that Shrek was based upon...

Millar did write Ultimates, Ultimate X-Men and Ultimate Fantastic Four so at least they were right in listing it even if it was mislabeled. Since he and Bendis ran the Ultimate Universe and once Millar left the first time down the toilet popularity went.

My thought exactly.

I don't see a problem.

FTLghost population growth in developed countries is barerly positive, the ultra rich would probably not have that many kids so it would be easier to control

@@marteneriksson9929 they're talking about the longrun. Like tens of thousands of years worth of population growth. Eventually it will reach that point once again. What's even the point of doing it in the first place?

@@vr8652 in that time we would have probably discovered interstellar travel and colinisation, or just better ways of population control in general

@@vr8652 running away from our problems is what humans are designed for

GLJohn Stewart I want Sean Connery to be a villain who implies “he knows what it’s like to do what bond does” and at one point Sean asks his bartender to “make his usual” the bartender makes a Vodka martini shaken not stirred but doesn’t SAY what he’s making but we watch him make it so we know what it is

Black Ninja I thought the movie was great but the sequel would have been better if Roxy wasn't killed. They didn't bring back Colin Firth. They made Jullianne Moore as a better villain.

A lot of places claim that the ultimates was a basis though that not all that accurate

@@leonevelake I know. Clint says Ultimate XMen, not the Ultimates.

Yeah I caught that too he says ultimate X-Men

...and they say Dave GibSON. It's Dave Gibbons.

@@leonevelake actually allot of the MCU is a mixture of mainstream and ultimate marvel comics. Hawkeye, Nick Fury and Falcon designs as well as the Hulks origin being tied to the super soldier program and the avengers first enemy being an alien invasion all came from the Ultimates.

Lol no it isn't...

It's not just a spelling error, it's the wrong name entirely. They said Gibson as well as writing it. But Gibson ain't his name.

@@puckerings Truth

Ah yes my favourite watchmen character les paul

Just like any other adaptation of his work

yeah, I stopped watching after the, ug, hamburger scene

I like the idea but this video would be 2 minutes long

Pedro Silva The majority would probably be what the film left out and didn’t expand on from the book. That being said it’s easily able to equal this video in length.

Oh yeah, much better in the film. Also in the comic, Merlin’s counterpart is the traitor, not Arthur’s which was the biggest twist for me. Though nice to see Mark Strong play a good guy for once!

it's funny how sex stuff can makes us uncomfortable, but extreme violence doesn't, right? ;)

goodial I think that the problem is that the tone of that section doesn’t fit with the tone of the movie. Moreover, to me it seemed rather objectifying of that princes, in contrast to the other female roles which were quite progressive.

That’s a mock of how most Bond girls in most Bond movies r like objects to him

the comic is trash, specially after having watched the movie.

Then you're missing out on a lot of good stuff, unfortunately!
