Pitch Meetings have really f'd me up. I was at work yesterday and I overheard a conversation between two colleagues, and one of them said "Damn, I bet it's gonna be hard for you to stick to the deadline", at which point my brain was like "Actually it's gonna be super easy, barely an inconvenience".
@@rickstaism are you suggesting they weren't colleagues, that there were more or less than two of them, or that it either will happen or currently is happening?
@@shailonnoelle7175 wdym, you didn't like the ugly CGi fight and Ralph Bohner?? Genius writing! It's been really hard to get excited about MCU projects after that, knowing they would all end up doing the easiest and least interesting thing every time. They had such a good concept with WandaVision, too :(
It was actually going so well until they went for the unexpected... I actually didn't mind that Quicksilver isn't really isn't quicksilver but having a boner joke out of seems like an insult. The hype for the aeronautic engineer is actually really really disappointing though
@@highdefinition450 yeah I loved the first few episodes, the slow burn mystery was amazing. Tbf all these pitch meetings point out how all the ideas could be great but as you said, they just went the easy route
The WandaVision pitch meeting is painfully accurate. There had to have been a poster in the writers room about making the audience regret theorizing. The rage from “please stand by” was palpable
God Ii love how it was just one gigantic middle finger to the “BUT MUH COMICS” crowd who don‘t give two shits about film and just want references to point at so they feel validated as a comic book fan.
I usually just spend the ticket and concessions money on regular drugs. Saves time, gas, and brain cells. Or maybe the brain cells thing just evens out.
Agreed, I was into it until the last two episodes. Even the penultimate was mostly good despite the Agnes addition. The finale was horrible though. And it made Multiverse it Madness even worse. So disappointing.
@@adammccaw I feel like it’s backwards. The finally was… decent, though bad by the standard the rest of the show had set up. And then multiverse of madness retroactively made it worse.
Pitch Meetings for Ocean’s Eleven and each Ocean’s Sequel would be tight. Then a compilation of the Ocean’s film series would be super easy, barely an inconvenience.
@@Shuizid I did not know that, thank you, but I think 'what' is also a running gag that slips in almost soundlessly sometimes as iT's so quick and short. I only came upon Ryan last Saturday.
The entire show was just a middle finger to the crowd who like to play “Who is the biggest nerd?” by trying to predict what happens based on knowledge of non-canon material. You can tell that last episode was one long producers note going “okay but make it MCU now please and thank you”.
I've seen it before, but this exchange near the end of the Black Widow segment still makes me giggle. "This character Contessa Valentina shows up with a mission for her." "What's the mission?" "Sign up for Disney+."
This is HANDS DOWN the greatest RU-vid channel I have found to date & I can't tell you how much TIME, MONEY BRAIN CELLS PITCH MEETING has saved me...KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK SIR!!!
Loki being shirtless is all fun and games until they show 9 year old Sylvie going through those exact same checkpoints and then you realize just how screwed up that whole thing really is.
@@Crusader2012 Loki was destroyed as a character in that show. Not saying the character itself was bad, but it wasn't Loki at all. All his cunning, intelligence, and wisdom seemingly evaporated along with his selfish persona. Suddenly he is a dim goody two shoes, because he watched a video.
49:00 What is funny is the end of No Way Home reveals that Peter know lives two blocks away from Rockefeller Center leaving an enormous question as to just WHERE was he while this was going on.
I haven't watched any of the Disney series (don't have Disney+ and won't be getting it) but Shang Chi and Black Panther 2 are worth watching although the latter is a bit disjointed in places. Feels like it was made to cash in on the first Black Panther movie (because of course it was) and trying to cram in references to the previous movie although there are only a couple of references to other MCU characters, which is something some of the other movies have gone way overboard with.
The funny part about the whole "actors in the show referencing their other works" thing is that the Arrowverse (which, granted, is DC, not Marvel) canonically explained that by explaining during Crisis on Infinite Earths that AU counterparts don't look the same and may even look like entirely different people (explicitly pointing out that the KC Superman was still Clark Kent/Kal-El, but he was the doppelganger of Earth-1's Ray Palmer). And they already had a perfect option to do that with the MCU, as well, since they own Fox, now, and thus can establish the Chris Evans Fantastic Four movie as simply being an AU. And why does that matter? Because if _superheroes_ could have different faces in different universes, why couldn't regular people? Why couldn't celebrities? See, my theory posits that Elizabeth Olson exists in the MCU, but she doesn't look exactly like the Elizabeth Olson of our universe, who is identical to their Wanda Maximoff.
Wooow, Ryan just hilariously showed us how a lot of us are desensitized to the MCU by accepting somewhat mediocre, and in a lot of parts, LAZY writing instead of realizing what it really is the first time watching, which is “wolf in sheep clothing” style writing just for the quick financial gain, all because it seems Disney feels after ten years of quality entertainment, they can cough up bullshit now and we will go for it because of the glory of the infinity saga. Very similar to what the last Star Wars movies just went through, which is also owned by Disney…..This guy’s brilliant
You should do some pitch meetings for some of the real old classics. Like Casablanca, The Wizard of Oz, From here to Eternity, or Ben Hur. Or any of the many great movies made before 1970.
These are the only compilation videos that I ever watch. Usually I never can stand to watch things multiple times, but I guess it is a testament to how good Ryan is at making these that I actually enjoy re-watching them. It is impossible to even pick a favorite as they are all so excellent. Keep up the awesome work Ryan.
Listening to the Eternals pitch again after all this time combined with all the Disney + shows once again shows how absolutely dumb it was to introduce 12+ new characters in a single movie instead of a series on THE STREAMING SERVICE THEY OWN !!!
Me: After all that hard work, I'm going to need you to add Werewolf by Night and the Guardians of the Galaxy holiday specials to this. Ryan: I'm going to need you to get all the way off my back now. Thanks!
Ya know... that reminds me with Hawkeye... when they use the Pym arrow, why didn't the truck like crack the whole rink? The whole thing with the power of shrinking was that you could still pack the punch of the same mass just in a much, much more focused way. That truck should have shattered the rink and blown up as soon as it hit the ice.
Marvel forgets their own lore and storytelling rules... all the time. It's not a well planned or well thought out storytelling universe. The writing is just 'whatever we need to serve the plot or hype moments'.
the moon knight "They fly now? They fly now!" is the first time that joke has ever been funny....also Cap turning into....joe biden was quite humorous as well.... it made me sharply exhale from my nose for a second
yeah and said anger came from being severly physically and mentally abos by his father as a child who also killed his mom infront of him via stabbing. so kinda more justified reasons to have uncontrollable emotional issues then "i get cat called".
...understandable Sir, but this is a weekly release schedule right? So we're gonna spread out the reveals and _REALLLLLY_ make people hate the words _"Please Stand By"..._ ...idk what everybody else thought about that line but it _LITERALLY_ had me dying with laughter haha🤣
I especially appreciate how he has come to draw attention to the increasingly abhorrent disregard for basic moral considerations in the superhero movies of the last few years.
I was just thinking about this the other day: how when you've been bombarded for however long with "superheroes" whose thing is pretty much wreaking havoc and killing someone, it becomes really hard to even imagine a hero as anything else other than a pumped-up destruction machine. I mean, one look at the Pattinson "Batman" trailer got me thinking, wait, that's supposed to be a superhero? He kinda looks like a jacked-up junkie. True heroes invent, treat, find solutions and compromise, construct, preserve and maintain - but none of this looks fun on the big screen, and it takes WAAAY too long to depict, so we have this trash.
