YouTube Movie Critics vs Woke Disney 

Apathy

I don’t care in general I just don’t watch it cause they’re not good. These anti woke dudes be dragging it on like it’s their livelihoods when they change next to nothing.

apathy is death

This is a huge problem though, investors will never give them millions to experiment with new things because they are afraid it will flop and they will lose money, if they ruined all franchises what movies are they gonna make?

give it a decade or two and they will reboot those franchises as soon as they think there is a market again. just look at how many times the batman franchise has been remade. you have the corny live action batman from the 1940s, the movie series from the 1990s, the animated cartoons from the 1990s, the dark knight trilogy, etc.. same thing happened with X-Men, Star Trek, and many others. big franchises don't die, they just go into hibernation for a few years until a new director/studio wants to try again.

Exactly. You're not allowed to write anything that could offend woke.

So you don't like avatar the last airbender?

@@Remedy462 "They don't write characters. They write diversity check boxes." Read it again.

​@@Remedy462how are avatar's characters a diversity check box?

Yes. And the weird thing is that you CAN write a good damn story diverse characters. Arcane, for example, is so well written and directed that none of the characters seem out of place.

And its the Guy Who cant speak English that wins

Damn I never thought of that! But so true! See...... They claim race is this giant fucking thing and it's the furthest from the truth... A good movie is a good movie. A good actor is a good actor. It doesn't matter what race they are to 99.99% of us. It's only an issue for those that are hiding their own racist beliefs and feel the need to project their own issues outwards so they won't have to take responsibility for their own moral flaws

Hell yeah

Absolutely, amazing film

Out of context but, I hate how the first number is not written like a word.

Bingo. Just like all great art it comes naturally

Forced narritives andunnecessary inclusivity ruins actual representation

Lilo and stitch, brother bear, Alladin, princess and the frog, Mulan. It's a pretty decent line up imo.

Bro for real, They had movies for EVERYONE!

Before or after the movies where made? Because that would have had a huge impact. Also, even if the movies where the same, I feel it would have caused a lot of people to turn away from the movie or critique them in a way they're not doing now.

Exactly. He made great pains to be true to the source material (no 'reimagined for modern audiences' doublespeak) and his trilogy was one of the best regarded and most successful of all time. The precedent, the recipe for success, is right there for everyone to see, but they're deliberately ignoring it.

LOTR by Peter Jackson was at some point going very much away from the books... but the FANS turned Peter's mind around. The One Ring community is to thank for the LOTR trilogy as well.

and that he had to change the racial and gender make-up of the characters because its not reflective of our modern day california BS

@@paulw5039 I mean he did make changes like with the eye of Sauron which in the book was not a literal eye on top of Barad-Dur but then again adaptations need to make changes to work. He generally stayed true to the spirit of the books. Also knowing some of Tolkiens general attitudes he probably wouldn't have liked the movies. Then again the guy who wrote the book for Willy Wonka didn't like the original movie which was a huge success. I guess that's just the authors pride as an artist

Facts.

Iron man wasn't even a list

@@weatheredseeker But Iron Man did have a few successful cartoons under his belt.

Lots of people cared it just wasnt mainstream But you are not doing yourself any favours by using obscure nobodies when your ship is sinking and you dont have audiences benefit of a doubt Guardians of the Galaxy was made when Disney Marvel was an ok franchise u could do this then But when u make 5 years of trash u need any help u can get

​@@MastaofPastaIron Man was C tier until the movies. Same with Captain America honestly.

Unlike the guy on the screen right now 💀

They remember the lecture when they're dealing with the consequences and think "dammit my dad was right"

The Alien movies did it best i think. Originally, Ripley was written without a gender. Just a badass character they ended up casting as a woman.

@@Colonelclout As Nostalgia Critic put it, "Disney wrote a character who is a strong woman, and these guys wrote a strong character who is a woman" or something like that

Actutally the answer to "what does she do?" is usually "fight the misogynistic patriarchy"

@@DarkDemon259 self-insert LULE

What character are you talking about?

Ikr! when I was watching the Batman that quote really threw me off 😂

​@@Casualcrusader777wait that actually happened?! Can you guys give more context here in detail??

@@eafesaf6934 He made it up.

@@eafesaf6934 A character rubs the death of Bruce Wayne's parents in his face - basically declared that a white child watching his parents getting murdered and then having no other family after they're gone has an easier and cushier life than the average non-white person and then tries to shame him for grieving.

@@nachofilament294 LOL wtf. See, the issue isnt the representation of marginalized people- its the demonization of everyone who isnt "them".

I like a ton of show tunes but hate musicals. Bigger, Longer and Uncut is my all time favorite musical. I listened to the soundtrack for BLU before I even saw it and the movie is amazing. South Park is an institution.

musicals are the worst form of media the world has to offer.

Coming from a son of a mother who loves musicals, I think "ew" cuz musicals tbh... suck. The only musical that i tolerated was Phantom of the Opera bc the story AND the music was pretty okay. The rest, suck. Idk why my mother likes them so much. I find musicals to be the most fakest films and waste of money and time, but this is coming from me. I personally don't like musicals in general.

@@newmnsilver well put actually, the fakeness is a good point

little shop of horrors is currently one of my favorite movies and that's a musical although musicals have a million ways to go wrong, not to mention its ties with cringe theater kids

“Wine aunt atrocious fan fiction writers”

Another perfect example that people don’t mention often is Guardians of the Galaxy. Nobody gave a shit about them until the movie(as well as it riding the success of iron man and avengers) until they had a good movie come out

I seen this all the time but this is a lie, Iron Man was not as famous as Spider-Man, but he was a LOT more famous than Guardians of Galaxy, Captain Marvel and Shang Chi. He had legendary and iconic histories.

For _freaking_ real. I only liked Hulk and Spider Man from the entire of Marvel, BUT the MCU made me care about all of them.

@@kaynekovack5968 yes as a comic book fan I can tell you had had a massive fan base even guys who watched animations mainly know him it was just lazy superhero movie watchers who didn't even bother to check what was going on outside of movies in superhero genre that didn't know him

También soy mexicano güey. I enjoyed the “pandering” as you say. It was fun. It was just the same god damn super hero movie we’ve all seen 3932 times already.

As a Mexican born in Mexico but raised here the movie accurately represents what it’s like to be Mexican in the states

I am Mexican. I don't read comic books but I do like comic books movies. And to be honest that line about batman and mentioning something about his race that was in the trailer made me not want to see this movie...

@@jessy8a10 American born and barely connected to the homeland probably

@@kibi8311sorry, who are talking about?

That's an amazing quote that I'm gonna carry with me man. The characters are interesting because of, "Who they are, not what they are."

Agree, 100% one of my childhood favorites.

It is an amazing movie! But we are not talking about Prince Moses. We are talking about one of the legendary villain THE JOKER and his gang from Gotham City fighting against the iconic Batman. I dont know how kids will stay for an hour and a half to listen to GAGA singing. My boy will kill me if I force that on him.

@@mariyan5433 Time will tell. I'm not a big fan of Gaga. But who knows, they might pull it off.

Tunisian and South italian are similar people, Annibale Barca was white, most of tunisians has white mediterranean skin!

Yeah its bs they got Denzel Washington about to play Hannibal too lol

​@@alexdragoon74 Hannibal Barca, is Punic who are a people who emigrated from Phoenicia (the coast of Lebanon and Syria) to Tunisia. And since he is from the upper echelons of Carthaginian society it is somewhat likely that they either married into each other, or made political marriages with the local elites that were referred to as Lybians (who were settled, sedentary light brown skined people described by greek historians, contrary to the numidians who were more nomadic, and were more dark skinned, according to the same historians). Therefore this Hannibal Barca should ressemble someone who has light brown skin, mediterranean/North african and middle eastern features, not sub-saharan african features. Same deal with Cleopatra, the name is of greek origin, that should tell enough about her ascendancy, but that's besides the point, im just being salty

Oh boy, let me talk to you about a country called Egypt...

@@arthurdaffos1490 That's the essence of woke-ism, especially on historic-based movies they "mutilate" the characters/concept to satisfy woke/diversity agendas while in reality people get mad cause their history/ancestry is being misrepresented and butchered. All consumers want are good quality movies not diversity crap, why would you watch something that is a flop story and "advertises" their politics to your brain all while you pay for it?

True. I want to add. They only believe in the identities of DEI that benefits them. Nobody of them want to include the identities nation, lanugage, political affiliation and so fort. Because they would have to give their jobs and movie industry to other nations, because every nation has to be porportionally epresented otherwise it is systemic and instituational discrimination according to their ideology. So they believe in DEI when it benefits them, they dont believe in it when it disbenefits them.

Industry : We asked our sensitivity readers and they said fun is forbidden now.

​@@paulw5039??

I greatly enjoy that Asmongold slowly but surely had no other choice but to directly watch & react to the culturewar. Just like bullys you can't ignore it after all, cause just like bullys, the culturewar is not going to ignore *YOU.* They are here to pester, to hurt, to attack and to insult. Cause they are insecure, envious and unhappy in their general loser lifes.

and that's basic and natural diversity and inclusion already. movies in our era has always has been. this "diversity and inclusion" thing they're doing is a marketing ploy. it's like them selling free clean water to people.

Blade is one of the best Marvel movies.

It's weird. I've been watching movies with black leads in it for all my life in the 34 years I've been on this planet but these people somehow act like it's never happened.

I remember MSM propping up Black Panther as the first black-led comic book movie when it came out. Also, Blade had one of the best intros for any protagonist in an action movie, let alone comic book movie.

@@RadioactiveDinosaurYep, there is a blank period in a lot of people’s minds from about 1995-2009 where no one cared about the race of lead actors and none of this woke brain rot on both sides of the political spectrum existed. My father told me that Obama caused a lot of the race relations to fall apart in America indirectly and directly.

true its funny how beloved the old Proud family was on disney and the new one did nothing but shit on everything that made the original good.

very true.

​@@keyki9832because they were smart about it. Look at 2000s Static Shock cartoon - literally had an episode where titular Black protag and his White BFF got kidnapped and their fathers went to look for kids... But White Father was a racist... Not a caricature of one... A reasonable person with flaws. Flaws that didn't came out of nowhere - his world view became like that because for years he was social worker in ghetto and was dissapointed again and again by deeds of local black people. And MC's Black Father calls him out on it, reminds that every person is different and they MUST put their prejudices aside and work TOGETHER to find their sons and just BE BETTER for the sake of their sons even if their life experiences make it hard for them. And it wasn't presented like preaching - it was exactly presented like one parent talking to the other. Heck, racist White Father was specifically presented as a very decent person aside for his flaw not as a BAD person. Just a man who had actual reasons to have a worldview he had and reflected on his actions by the end of episode deciding to be better for the sake of his son. You can even argue that moral of the story was not just "Racism is bad" but "Parents have to try to better themselves for the sake of their kids" using "Racism" as the example of a "flaw" one can have.

Gen X vs. Millennial writing. The millennials clearly have worse media literacy and knowledge of compelling narratives and themes.

The entire industry was doing better prior too. Current movies failing with horribly written female leads being blamed on sexist men not wanting that in their movies.. but men loved Sarah Conners and Ellen Ripley making those franchises successful.... because THEY WERE WELL WRITTEN. Imagine that. Captain Marvel failed because it was written by activists making a point instead of writers telling a good story.

Didn't even have to be high quality, If they had fun with she Hulk and treated it like it was a massive WWE skit ppl would like it, they treated it as an SI for their bitter woke nonsense, and no one is interested watching that

I don't care about she-hulk at all but I do care about the fact that they completely minimized the character development of the Hulk. This chick is just super good at everything. Everything that Bruce struggled with, she just owns it

Exactly, I think people are usually open to new characters they have never heard before as long as they are well written and enjoyable to watch.

im not a comic book fan but wasn't the guardians of the galaxy not that popular as a comic until the movie came out? were they c list heroes too?

She-Hulk was a real character but it was all tongue in cheek. It was a joke comic. They are so clueless, they took it literally and made a show that wasn't a comedy.

I agree. It’s literally a problem of priorities. Your No.1 priority should be making a good story, book, comic, movie, series or game. If your No.1 priority is DEI, then you are inevitably going to sacrifice making the best product that you can because it is not your main priority.

In real life, people are friends because they are comfortable to call each other nasty words about their appearance, ideals and even past behaivor. But everyone knows it's in good fun, because these are... well, your friends. The twitter mob has no friends. They are united by their lack of social interaction.

I used to hang out in a streamer friends discord channel and have a great time, I felt like I could just be myself and relax around my friends in there. She happened to be trans but I didn't give a sh*t about that, she was fun to hang out with and was a good friend. I used to moderate for her stream channel and would hang out with everyone in virtual reality all the time. After her channel started to get super popular I felt like I was getting pushed further and further from her community, it was getting filled to the brim with people just like Ernest. After that, instead of relaxing and having a great time I was always trying to be careful about everything I said, walking on eggshells. Even with me being so careful, because I said 'hey guys' to a group of people, an Ernest in that group added me to some sort of blacklist of people. This list was consistently shared with other Ernest's so they could ban everyone on the list, even if they haven't ever interacted with the people or even seen them at all. It's fricken crazy man.

Narcissist trying to hide behind virtue signaling

What if MOST people do have a problem? Because MOST do.

Yeah but the people who are complaining about the lack of strong women don't know those characters. They don't watch the movies or the series or don't play the video games, they just talk about them.

The issue with diversity politics in entertainment companies is that having an opposing view is easily labelled as racism and you will be reported to HR and fired, so any rational person even remotely suggesting "hey guys this is going overboard a bit maybe we do it a different way" is gone, or is not speaking in fear of losing their job. That's not right, it's not fair, and it's definitely not healthy.

because the left side are defending the teenager. That is like having parents defend their own spoil kid. Leftist liberal media and youtubers like John Campea defend these bad behavior.

I'm pretty sure my local McDonald's fired all the teenagers and hired a bunch of migrants that don't speak English.

​@@sharkshock9080 Majestic maneuver, they can't talk shit if they don't know how to speak the same language

Yeah every mcdonalds and fast food place is like that tbh, bunch of fresh of the boat immigrants who can barely speak english let alone handle a drive thru order 😂 and kids arent getting real world experiences anymore and are super out of touch , cause everyone who has kids can afford for them not to have to work part time 😂​@@sharkshock9080

This was his second appearance too, he did one a week or two before and was just as good, same with Nerdrotic. We need to see the bridge between the two worlds more.

I think they need a bit more time to adapt. They're used to speaking freely instead of pre-planned sound bites

@@Gaming_Sparky58 - oh really? That's cool. Not really a fan of Piers Morgan, but glad it's getting a little bit more traction now. I'm a huge fan of Star Wars, it's a fantastic franchise that's been utterly ruined by Disney.

pierce has been interviewing internet people for a while, since his show is basically an internet show now.

Yeah. famous people getting on TV is FUCKING CRAZY!!!

The biggest issue is Hulk's entire development was about controlling his anger allowing him to control his power but she hulk's power is amplified by hatred of men with complete control without any character development with the added excuse of "women have had to deal with men therefore they've been controlling their anger since the beginning of human history" kind of BS. The core value is literally "women strong, men weak."

Comics? U srs?

​@@duewhat9815with lot of cartoon and comics. I actually love Hulk but hate Banner. Hulk is simple story of angry men learning to self control and understanding the world around him. Banner felt less impressive.

The writers also do not read the comics as well when they wrote the script

When you make a good character so insufferable, that some of the audience *wants* them dead so they’re out of the story, you know you messed up. I was just waiting for She-Hulk to be humbled or killed off, so Banner took her place.

There are many good movies with strong females. But those movies didn't focus on "the message" or in those movies they didn't have to minimize the men either. They were good writen movies. Terminator Wonder woman (the first one) Xmen Star wars Halloween And more

@@jessy8a10 To this day one of my favorite female-led movie is China O'Brien. Such an awesome movie if you're looking for nice choreographed fight scenes. A little cheesy here and there but I loved it. Especially the biker dude pulling off Chris Angel stunts. XD

​@leoncoben6983 thanks :) .. Now u made me remember kill bill another good movie with a strong female

Yep people don't hate strong female leads, they hate bad writing.

Alein franchise anyone and that started in 1979.

But at the same time nor Nerdrotic, nor the Critical Drinker have ever made apoint against diversity. They hate FORCED diversity tho, and the way modern Hollywood does it nowdays.

Agree. Hes wrong and they are wrong and right at the same time.. people aren’t listening to each other.. A storm movie done really well would sell bank. And it’s not becuase shes black.

He got it right almost on accident; it's been one car crash after another, including his mic quality

Bro I'd watch the hell out of a well made Storm movie. She was one of my favorite characters back in the old 90's cartoon.

They would NEVER try to make Storm white, it would outrage everyone! Even my white @$$! She could literally change the world with her powers. Bring rain to droughted areas, move torrential rains away to avoid flooding, counter storm hurricanes to cancel them out. She would save thousands of lives on a weekly basis. But multicultural Spider People or "Eternals" is pandering at this point. Miles gets a pass because he's an original character, not black Peter Parker.

I KNOW, RIGHT? It really shows the maturity of people being hired to write stories and defend them. As a story writer and animator, it’s genuinely frustrating and depressing.

His eyes are probably connected to that single fly between his ears.

I agree. They should only hire robots and psychopaths who can hide their emotions. People displaying emotions or getting angry about other people displaying emotions are unfit to be seen.

​@@ShizlgizlI didn't think you got the point my guy, this is a discussion/debate. A certain level of professionalism or courtesy is required when listening to other people not making faces at their talk. Last time I remember someone not respecting another debater is in elementary. If you still think otherwise, then I'm telling you in a healthy way you might be unpleasant to talk irl.

@@rishiredij2449 ​​I think the argument the way you frame it completely fair, but it's different from OP's. Looking back I could have framed mine better too. We're watching a guy whose inseperable part of the brand is making faces while reacting to videos. That made me question how much of the outrage (OP is not alone) stems from disrespect and how much of it stems from that guy's lack of charisma and the side he took in the debate. I still think you're right that even is Asmon was acting his usual self on debate it would be unprofessional, but I get the feeling OP wouldn't consider this standard of professionalism (being a robot in debates).

That is a damn good point

Or when people said Dunkirk had too many white people 😂

@@scottfitz6582 hahaha yeah, I'd forgotten about that one xD Absolutely.

There was even a legendary black samurai actually, which was also the main inspiration for Afro Samurai centuries later. It was around the same time period at that. They actually could, if they really wanted tbh

​@Shane-un8pe It heavily depends on how one defines "samurai" to this day, but it's not untruth to consider or call him one, academically speaking.

​@Shane-un8pe Yamato-damashi aside (the one argument not to formally consider him a samurai because of shinto cultural matters), he is undeniably, IN JAPAN, considered a samurai. I can link you to a myriad of Japanese articles, books and documentaries to prove that point to exhaustion, but basically, whether you like it or not, Yasuke is called a samurai in Japan (the matter is more in regards if the title is just honorary or 100% applicable, but he is nonetheless historically known as a Samurai). Extremely untruthful my ass, you don't know the first thing of what you are talking about lol

As a Hulk fan, I'm disappointed in Disney Marvel for not letting Hulk get his revenge on Thanos after Infinity War. I so wanted a one on one throwdown similar or greater than Hulk vs Hulkbuster in Age of Ultron. Another one is not giving Hulk his own movie series. I like the Ant Man but the Hulk should've had his own series before Ant Man.

She also was just really boring and uncharasmatic unlike they way she was In the comics or animated shows They basically wrote her to always point out things to make you roll your eyes than to laugh, it was supposed to be a comedy and it was a joke that they wrote something so bad and not even similar to the source Marvel does tell their actors to not read the comics but writers too, yeesh

​@@AerysTMD Hulk had that back in the day with Edward Norton.

@@zuzusflower9503 dude the saddest part is that I recently started reading the legacy of the force books (which essentially the same time period as the sequels in legends) and it’s like Luke can tell that Han’s son is turning to the dark side, but for a lot of the time he’s genuinly worried about him. And he doesn’t blame him either, he can tell that there’s somebody manipulating him (which is mostly true) and that if he could just get that person out of the picture then Han’s son would be easy to bring back to the light. It’s just like… DUH. That’s what Luke would actually think. Obviously. He always assumes the best in people even if it gets him into trouble. He doesn’t go around assassinating his own family in their sleep.

I didn't know a lot of people make themselves in character creators. I always make the most insane acid wash color blind character every time.

If I can play as a female I will play as a female, you are 100% right 😅😂

I love having the options yeah, it's why i really loved FF14. I can make a cute girl, i can make her sexy or i can make her really badass in heavy armor and glowing weapons. Or i can just make a good-looking guy that i would 'aspire" to become if i could.

Same man, my character creation are always 1. Glasses, big Boba nerd girl (it's a plus if her class is Priest) 2. An abomination of Squidward.

Yes true.. i play games to "live" through the eyes of the character... not to "inject" myself into the story.. that is.. narcissistic and weird... a majority of my characters are female... "body type 2".. lmao.. y? because of the different perspective.

Yeah, thats how cult mentality tends to work 😑

But what about all the popular and interesting leftist /POC-pandering stuff (Moana, Soul, Encanto, etc) they make that are still very popular. Wokeness neither makes or breaks a show, it being good or bad(which is completely unrelated) does.

@@frosthammer917 The profit margins are much lower overall. They pay useless people to "work" on the stuff, then the stuff sells fewer copies. It's not about the thing being seen by millions of people. It's that it needs to be seen by ENOUGH millions of people. If Disney has the same profit margins as your local pizza joint, why even be in the content production business? That's what many shareholders are asking but unfortunately the cultists are in charge of the money so Disney has to go broke.

​@@frosthammer917 I don't recall Moana being woke? Are you talking about female lead? Idt any1 cares about that per se. Also, it's not POC pandering, it's organically based on that culture (you can watch the Making Of, they took a lot of inspiration from natives there). Same reason people don't mind Black Panther cast. It's not pandering. The other trash that has been releasing in the past few years, though, is precisely that; where it is purely shoved at your face, completely unnecessary, all about minority/gender empowerment, forced inorganic diversity and orientations, for no apparent reason, with no respect to the viewers, the plot, and in some cases (adaptations/remakes) - the original story. That's the issue, at least imo.

⁠​⁠@@ishay3000Moana was nearly a decade ago, and Black Panther was nearly six years ago. They were in production prior to that, before all this started happening in full swing. A ‘blockbuster’ movie released in 2024 for instance probably would have started production in 2021 for instance.

I heard it around 23:30~

Progressive Leftists are fond of ad hominem attacks. When they cannot refute an argument with logic and reason, they attack the person instead. Edit (side note) - How the hell does Asmongold not know that "Gone With The Wind" is NOT A MUSICAL? There used to be many great musical movies, but culture has changed. Musicals were hugely popular with the Greatest Generation and with the Silent Generation that followed them. Even many baby boomers enjoyed musicals. It's only relatively recently with Millennials and later generations that they've declined precipitously. The "GLEE" tv show did really well, so even among young folks there is still an audience.

Candace Owens Junior.... yes. Is in minute 23:30. He is a total clown.

That's very touching, very true, and also disturbing. I think she nailed it.

Good writing a good director and good world building.

She was very well liked among comic book fans. The show though managed to get literally everything wrong about the character though.

People went to watch them mainly because they were being involved with Thanos and the stones, shown multiple times in the end of every video But almost everyone left enjoying them because it was good overall

she hulk could have been good but the people writing don't know shit about her or even about law which is the fucking title of the show

@@dougfax Marvel = 2008 to 2019.

I stopped watched wednesday because the woke messaging annoyed me too much. When wednesday started preaching about white washing of history or telling a dude he's mansplaining, i just turned it off. Good story & entertainment matters most but if the woke messaging, identity politics, forced diversity, representation, gender politics & mary sue is there, thats enough to stop watching as well.

Exactly, also on a more basic note, people have to start somewhere. It is not like (especially if you aren't from America) your parents would be so into comic characters and be like "wow, now I am gonna watch Iron Man with my child". Sure there were the comics, but I am sure for the majority it just looked like a cool film / series first, and only after watching it they liked the characters. When the first MCU Iron Man film was released, I had no idea who he was.Iirc there was like one episode in the 90s Spider-Man cartoon where he appeared for like 5min, that was my Iron Man knowledge.

think that iron man was also a C-list hero before the first movie

@@gaysfortrump2024 before the MCU pretty much the whole roster is C-list to me as i grew up watching DC cartoons with the justice league. I guess the only marvel's heroes back then was only those whos on tv, like xmen with Hugh Jackman and the spiderman trilogy

.

Feel like Asmon over-generalizes Marvel films success down to nostalgia when that's... really not true at all. They had fantastic casting, were well produced, and were pretty well marketed. Nostalgia may have even been a slight deterrent due to how terrible a lot of older Marvel films had been, vexing certain people from seeing later films.

And it was just a dishonest dogwhistle. Whenever any of those comments are made I know the speaking is dishonest

I'd hardly call 859 mil a bust, no Marvel movie is gonna hit over a Billion anymore. It's franchise fatigue and the general audience basically being done with superhero genre in general.

@@ChrisDeebo We don't really know the numbers, but 859 mil is aboslutely not that great a number, when we consider how much the cinemas take, and the fact the actual cost of the movie nowadays is about twice its budget (marketing and all that). Estimates put profit at 260 mil, while 170 mil of that is from streaming. Money that Disney gets to decide how to attribute, as the whole system is theirs. So, anywhere between 90 and 260 million dollars. Not terrible, but not a milestone either. Compared to previous years' movies, it absolutely underperformed, and that is the best outcome from that year. It's not a good look.

​@@ChrisDeeboThere is absolutely no fatigue. You make a good movie and people will watch it. This is just a lazy excuse and lack of creativity

@@vb2806 That is true if you make a good movie people will come. Last year Barbie made 1.4 billion and Super Mario made 1.3 Bbllion. Neither of those movies were my cup of tea but they succeeded. Unfortunately chance of Disney or WB getting money from Superheroes movies is growing slim. Hell Dune 2 was fantastic but so far only made over 600 mil 😐

@@habama1077 I'm only going by Box Office numbers anything pass that is just fluff imo but like I said no superhero will exceed Billion again. This is just the reality. Luckily for Disney Avatar is doing just fine

how do you know how much views gets old television? If you are talking about RU-vid channel then obviously it will have low views, because most people watch it on the tv, not on youtube

@@aerahtv0000 How do YOU know?

There's TV metrics on the internet at least in the Netherlands and TV still gets massive amounts of views.

@@wiliestrogue2924 it is obvious , isn't it?

All Public owned tv outlets have their ratings public. RTL a German based channel is the largest in Europe and has 22million viewers daily. and this is only one channel. the notion that drinker, mauler ect have more viewers than your average cabel tv is complete and utter nonesense.

This is an incredibly naive way of understanding the world. Looking for the best us going to disproportion favor those whose privilege has given them better opportunities.

@@talesin7070 Privileged in what way? Their family has more money? More connections? Even if you have those, if these companies only hired depending on your competence at the job that you are applying for, then those things don't have as big of an impact as you think they do. You could have all the money in the world and have the best teachers for something, but if you aren't interested in it and/or just aren't good at it, then your competence at the job just won't be that good. I've worked with a lot of people and usually the people with the lowest competence are those who have been spoiled rotten and those who have no drive to do anything, they just want the money.

Money can buy competence. It can buy schooling. It can buy tutors, it can buy textbooks. It can buy extra music lessons or sports equipment. It can buy your way into summer learning programs. It is an all powerfull networking tool as well. Money can help you meet the right people.@Seanidor

​@@josephhufford4090this part of the market can't fix that problem without reducing the quality of their products tho.

Makes sense when you think about it

Most of the South Park guys other movies seem to be musicals. BASEketball wasn’t, but you need to check out their first movie Cannibal: The Musical

Musicals are generally bad though which is why people say that lol. Even the good ones would have probably have been better if they weren't musicals to begin with

@@charg1nmalaz0r51 There are good musicals and bad musicals but you can say the same about movies in general, there are good movies and bad movies. I would say there are more bad movies than good movies so most movies in general are bad. So I don't think you are making a good point. If you are arguing proportionally then I would still disagree I think the proportions of bad movies to good is worse than musicals, if you don't believe me watch Red-letter media's series best of the worst and just see how many bad movies are out there. Now do some people not like musicals sure but I just think some people don't realize that some movies they like are.musicals like as I said Disney animated movies. I don't think there are many musicals that would be better if they weren't musical. I think they are either bad or good and the musical nature doesn't change that. Again you personally might not like musicals but that's a personal opinion.

@@charg1nmalaz0r51 I think you mean that most things are bad, because that is just statistics. Disliking all of a genre because most of a genre is bad is stupid. I can think of so many terrible RPGs, but that doesn’t mean ALL RPGs are bad. It literally comes down to execution. If it’s a good movie then it’s a good movie. The genre of movie is irrelevant.

think the disney movies have the advantage of being animated, which allows for more dynamic motions and creative imagery vs live action. Course it can depend. the greatest show for example both used good music aaaand incredible choreagraphy. The 'other side' is just fucking awesome.

I mean my issue with the Ahsoka show is that it’s written atrociously. They establish in the very first episode that there’re no stakes because Sabine gets stabbed with a lightsaber and lives. There’s a lot of empty space where characters are literally just standing there saying nothing. All of the characters have already been developed in other mediums, and it shows because they didn’t really know what flaws to bestow on anyone other than making them (mostly Sabine, but also Ahsoka to a degree) extremely moronic for the sake of the plot. Perhaps most insultingly, they had an episode where they used Hayden Christiansen to make people feel like the show was good even though they didn’t build up to it in any capacity and Ahsoka didn’t really learn anything she didn’t already know from that experience. And finally, they decided to undo Ezra’s awesome sacrifice from rebels which retroactively damages that show even further for the sake of setting up a ridiculously contrived sequel that may not even happen anymore…

wait is that what you care about and not the issue they are talking about which is the film industry. I'm sure girls can talk to him he just probably picks weak girls who can't stand up to them self.

@@mysticstrikeforce5957 i honestly don't give af about the film industry. it's crashing and burning and i couldn't care less, because everything i care about has been ruined. i've no longer got any skin in the game. i just think it's hilarious about how half of his whole schtik is standing up for woman and people of color, yet he only has the balls to speak over the woman of color to "defend" his "points," and doesn't say a word when the white men speak. it's so backwards i can't help but laugh

Trying to bait topics they are needed they purposely are chosen to look stupid

​@@kasagure. Yep, that's the case with most of those woke people... In effect they like totalitarianism... Freedom of speech is supposed to be just for them...

@@kasagure. old parodies and satires never saw people like him coming

what is woke to you tho? BG3 is the most woke game ever and also one of the most successful games ever. they have politics in there, but the writing and character development is amazing.

​@@MisterOwling what polotics are in BG3?

@@YourLoveableBard are you serious?

BG3 has some woke narratives, but it does not demand that players abide by them. Take the arguably "political" narrative af the tiefling migrant refugees (if one wants to draw real world parallels, one can)... in a truly woke game there is no way the players would allowed to annihilate them. As for the romancing aspect of the gameplay, that is also entirely up to player preference and tastes. Woke games force narratives devoid of player choice.

@@YourLoveableBard in case you are serious, just look at Gordash and his plans... the devil himself... what about the Grove and politics there?

Lord of the Rings trilogy turned out pretty damn great considering how woke it was. Short men saving the world, homosexual tension, group of foreigners banding together, strong women and female warriors, old white men getting killed off and sent off to distant lands to be replaced by the new generation, thousands of years of racism between dwarves and elves being cured etc

​@@mmanu6126Theres a difference between woke and reflective

@@mmanu6126 it is not woke because it did not prioritise those as being intrinsically good outcomes. They emerged as a consequence of good story telling. Wokeness is sacrificing story telling quality for the outcomes themselves.

The 'woke mind virus' should be classified as a disease

@@mmanu6126 made up terms like 'woke' doesn't exist

And then some people have the audacity to ask "WhERe aRe All tHE BlACk PEoplE?!?!??!!?" or other minorities, in a show where it takes place in Japan.

I would say, shogun and black panther are both examples of movies with almost no diversity. The trick is that by focusing completely on african or japanese people, it escapes the normal hollywood need for deconstructing every modernist story telling element. BP for instance is a king of an ethnic monarchy, who rules by divine right, and hes the good guy. By being so "diverse" they escape the woke, and that makes them much more likely to be good.

Bruh. Shogun is 99% Asian with a token white guy. That is not diverse.

Shogun is also based on a real event. In fact, two of the white characters became samurai in real life.

As well as the Portuguese as another looming threat
