Hearted Youtube comments on The Critical Drinker (@TheCriticalDrinker) channel.

  1. The hate this show is getting is so satisfying
    58000
  2. this movie was so bad I saw it on a flight and people still walked out.
    56000
  3. Disney wants us to symphatize with Wanda for losing her imaginary kids even after enslaving an entire town, Thor lost his actual family, and home world. He's the most tragic hero in the Avengers and they want us to laugh at him.
    43000
  4. The part where Galadriel screams "Black Lives Matter" and charges at Sauron was awe-inspiring
    41000
  5. Original: gave the impression that the characters were smart. Reboot: gave the impression that the characters were desperate to be viewed as smart.
    39000
  6. As a European, I am deeply offended by Disney's systematic purge of Europeans from their own folklore. Are we not good enough to star in our own folk stories?
    38000
  7. Imagine redoing an entire film, taking out everything that made it wholesome and timeless, and turning it into a souless, mean spirited cash grab.
    38000
  8. I actually loved the part where Disney lost hundreds of millions of dollars and still didn’t manage to learn their lesson.
    36000
  9. Oppenheimer was literally 75% politics and was still less political than Barbie 😂
    36000
  10. The Villains are still around. They just write, produce and direct now.
    33000
  11. South Park: "Put a chick in it and make it lame and gay!" Disney: "That's it! We found our model!"
    31000
  12. Velma was already intelligent and capable on her own. They didn’t need to diminish Fred’s intelligence and other characters’ roles just to make her stand out. God this is just sad.
    31000
  13. Can't wait to not see it.
    30000
  14. Imagine a movie like Deadpool making a better story arc about cancer than a movie with Christian Bale and Natalie Portman in it…
    29000
  15. I am a Marine, and it is required by law that we have at least one funny guy, one solid dude with a dark past, one crazy guy, and one explosive expert with a foreign accent in every platoon.
    29000
  16. "I'm tired of getting drunk....", that's when I knew he was joking.
    29000
  17. Tolkien was right about evil being incapable of creating new things, only corrupt the good ones into twisted caricatures.
    29000
  18. Whenever someone says an old movie "aged badly" because of changing fashions or attitudes, keep in mind that it's also possible that the movie is actually fine and it's society that aged badly.
    28000
  19. Snow White was the film that started Disney, and Snow White will be the film that ends it. How poetic.
    28000
  20. "Her origin is one of envy, jealousy and self serving" That actually sounds like a good origin story, for a villain
    27000
  21. I cant wait for her to lecture Matt Murdock about how hard it is to be a women in law, and for him to just sit there and take it while he goes back to reading his brail.
    26000
  22. Imagine an entitled brat, raised by two women, starts a fire, and kills everyone. Then blames everyone but herself. Who would have thunk it?
    26000
  23. Still,I have to thank this movie for curing my grandfather's disability and blindness. I showed him this movie,and halfway through,he got up from his wheelchair,turned off the TV and told me it was the worst thing he's ever seen.
    25000
  24. I don't care what they told you in school. Anakin Skywalker blew up the Death Star.
    25000
  25. A million dislikes is something you dont see every day.
    24000
  26. John Walker and Zemo are easily the best parts of the show and I'm not sure that's what the writers wanted lmao
    24000
  27. What's worse is when you have a serious film where the adults act like children and the children act like adults.
    24000
  28. Watching Disney’s downfall is more entertaining than watching their movies
    24000
  29. 40K bots and 1M+ honest opinions.
    24000
  30. I directed this movie and I love the 'Cold Beer and a Burger' analogy. Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the review!
    24000
  31. All these celebrities should get a manager who tells them, “No don’t tweet that. You’ll just make a fool of yourself.”
    24000
  32. The token white guy looked into the future and saw the rest of the script. Then drank the poison to escape this universe as fast as possible.
    24000
  33. Everything goes right for the Mary Sue. Nothing goes right for Anakin Skywalker. The comparison is absurd on the face of it.
    23000
  34. I’m gonna be honest. The biggest reason I watch this show is to see Antony stars incredible acting as Homelander. He is carrying this show
    23000
  35. this series is a tragedy
    23000
  36. It’s funny how Dreamworks managed to outperform Disney
    23000
  37. We need to normalize ignoring celebrities political opinions.
    22000
  38. The fact that this movie feels more divisively political and controversial to talk about than Opennhimer is definitely something.
    22000
  39. If I saw this movie on a plane I would still walk out
    22000
  40. I loved that scene when the villain was like “How did you know?” and Madame Web responded with “I checked it on the web.” I had tears in my eyes…
    22000
  41. "A company founded by geniuses and inherited by morons" is a great quote
    22000
  42. I’m proud to say that I didn’t watch one minute of The Acolyte, but I watched everything the Drinker had to say about it.
    22000
  43. Casting Lance Reddick as Wesker is like casting Keanu Reeves as Blade.
    21000
  44. The Marvels is the WNBA of movies. The audience it was geared towards didn't see it so the audience it wasn't geared towards is getting blamed for it's financial failure
    21000
  45. “Easy big guy, the budget is getting real low.”
    21000
  46. Most sad is that edit was certainly made out of pure love for the original stage play and excitement for the movie. That's what fans do.
    21000
  47. Peter Jackson's LotR was made at the exact time in human history that the series could be made. It was a nearly perfect adaptation and we'll never see another like it.
    20000
  48. They stole TWO hulk villains for this movie...instead of just making a Hulk movie!!!
    20000
  49. Honestly, if it weren't for this whole situation, I wouldn't have known the Oscars even aired.
    20000
  50. Keanu gave $50k to our soup kitchen for the homeless and didn't ask for a single damned thing in return. He even helped to unload the trucks. He's just a guy who wanted to help and so he did.
    20000
  51. The same people who claim Brie Larsen is hated for being a strong woman hate Carano for ACTUALLY being a strong woman.
    20000
  52. > Aquire successful franchise > Change everything that made it successful > Pikachu face when it flops > Blame fan base > Repeat Make it make sense.
    20000
  53. I didn't realize there were people who disliked this film.
    20000
  54. "Somehow Palpatine returned" will remain the absolute worst written line in cinematic history and no one can tell me otherwise
    20000
  55. I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if 180 million dollars suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.
    20000
  56. We're Warhammer 40K fans... We ARE weaponized autism. Not one backwards step.
    20000
  57. Apparently we’ve reached the point in our society where a movie about protecting and saving children from s$x trafficking is a “controversy”
    20000
  58. As a German, I have to say that no matter how hard you butchered the pronouncing of that text passage, Disney butchered the fairy tale much, much worse. Can I scream cultural appropriation at them now? They like that term, don't they?
    20000
  59. “She-Hulk” proving that wine moms can’t write a tv show.
    20000
  60. "Hey! You know how iconic the Broadway poster is for Wicked? We should recreate that for the film!" "I have never been more insulted in my life." What the hell?
    19000
  61. Good April Fools
    19000
  62. Their plan of fighting people who live in the ocean and thrive in the ocean…. In the middle of the ocean had to have been the worse battle plan ever 😂
    18000
  63. Kinda funny how Netflix keeps the trash but cancels the good stuff
    18000
  64. The MCU is like a friend who you grew apart from. There's no anger, malice or ill will, it's just something that happens from time to time.
    18000
  65. They all want a strong woman until they actually meet one.
    18000
  66. > Orcs have trebuchets that can destroy parts of a mountain > Don't use them to destroy the city walls
    18000
  67. Thanks to Peter Dinklage aka Giant Tyrion Lannister from Avengers Infinity War, the 7 dwarf actors lost their jobs and were replaced by 7 uncanny CGI Dwarves.
    18000
  68. Amazing that the BBC had the two most popular television shows on the planet Doctor Who and Top Gear and ruined both in a few years
    18000
  69. In this movie, when Snow White is kissed by the prince, she sues him for harassment.
    17000
  70. So happy y'all enjoyed our hard work 😄
    17000
  71. "Obviously Captain America was a virgin" And here we have it, women accusing men of being sex maniacs but judging & mocking someone if he did not have sex.
    17000
  72. The spider-verse franchise is proof that we are not tired of superhero movies, we are tired of bad superhero movies.
    17000
  73. “Somehow, RDJ has returned…”
    17000
  74. Nothing says “out of touch” like actively trying to cut your audience in half, and then getting upset when your ratings go down
    17000
  75. As a woman, I honestly find it more insulting when writers make the women 'strong and flawless' and all of the men beta and pathetic, because to me it just looks like they're saying 'we can only make women look strong when they're standing next to a weak, totally useless man'.
    17000
  76. No plans to see it, but, glad the Drinker gave his honest opinion about it.
    17000
  77. My grandmother told me: I don't care what character you played in the PS1 games, Lara Croft was a flat chested lesbian who cried every 15 seconds.
    17000
  78. I'm proud that Drinker didn't let She-Hulk prejudice him against projects led by green women.
    17000
  79. When I first watched this movie, I thought Admiral Holdo was a villain. When the imperial fleet followed them through lightspace, I thought it was because Holdo was an Imperial spy. "Brilliant!" I thought. I was so fucking confused when that turned out to be not true.
    17000
  80. The fact it got 13 nominations tells you the Oscars is not worth watching anymore.
    17000
  81. Dear Acolyte writers, that South Park episode was a parody, not an instruction manual. Try again
    17000
  82. "...milked to death by a massive, money-hungry corporation who never understood what made it good in the first place..." is so fucking painfully accurate, Drinker.
    17000
  83. That smile on RDJs face on stage, is the smile of a man who just got the biggest paycheck of his entire life.
    17000
  84. Joker II: The Quest for More Money
    17000
  85. We're all rooting for that apple
    17000
  86. Winter Soldier becoming Captain America would have been far more interesting
    16000
  87. The stupidity of one, the arrogance of two, the hubris of Disney!
    16000
  88. For a movie dealing with spirits,this one had no soul.
    16000
  89. I'll give them this....At least they didn't try to ruin an existing IP for once
    16000
  90. Social media killed the Movie star
    16000
  91. Wanda : “I made mistakes and people were hurt” Doctor Strange : “I didn’t watch your Disney plus show”
    16000
  92. Celebrity activism isn't just irrelevant now, it's actively creating a backlash and helping the opposition.
    16000
  93. The fact the crew had to redo the water scenes because the actress 'couldn't swim' is comedy on itself.
    16000
  94. “To edit my face and hide my eyes is to erase me” I am lost for words from how moronic that statement is
    16000
  95. Let's be honest here, they totally changed her skin colour just to piss off fans and get a reaction so they can virtue signal against the so called "toxic fanbase" again.
    15000
  96. You know it's gonna suck when a movie about vampires can't even show actual blood
    15000
  97. 10 years ago my ex wife lied to a judge. And my daughter was removed from my life. I paid child support and received no visits for years. But the truth was on my side. Today her mother is in trouble with the law and next week my daughter is coming to live with me. Never give up
    15000
  98. So he defeats Red Hulk by using his super power of telling him he needs to do better?
    15000
  99. When the media says fighting against child sex trafficking makes you a loony, then you know you’re on the right path.
    15000
  100. What kind of upside down world are we living in when Marvel and DC can’t produce nuanced characters but League of Legends can?
    15000
  101. I cared for Black Widow, then they took 3 years to release it....because money is the priority
    15000
  102. “Evil cannot create, only corrupt.” - JRR Tolkien
    14000
  103. This is why you gotta respect the Drinker. The ability to give a fair review to a movie despite the pre conceptions is a true gift.
    14000
  104. "we were uncomfortable with the implication that disabled people are evil" it finally hit me, these people are incapable of viewing the world through any lens other than representation. At no point is it ever implied that Davros is evil BECAUSE he is disabled, but because he is disabled, he must therefore be a stand in for ALL disabled people. Its all starting to click, everything is allegory to them
    14000
  105. Older movies wanted to captivate audiences, tell stories, and build a legacy full of passion and love. Something that’s foreign to the modern movie making industry
    14000
  106. After “He suffers occasional blackouts and wakes up in different places,” I fully expected an “we’ve all been there, mate.”
    14000
  107. Drinker just casually dropping an interview with RUSSELL CROWE 😀😀😀 Well done, lad! 👏
    14000
  108. I was genuinely more excited for the Drinker's review of this movie than the movie itself.
    14000
  109. The director of Joker said the only way to get a film made in today's climate is to dress it up like it is a superhero film to fool the producers.
    14000
  110. The one time they have a girl boss character known for being a girl boss. Then they write her as the least favorable type of female character in media.
    14000
  111. Nothing says “out of touch” like demonizing the very people who decide if your film succeeds or not.
    14000
  112. I absolutely hate the "realistic" trend of CGI animals. The old Disney made strange-looking animals like crabs and flounders cute instead of realistic for a reason.
    14000
  113. Imagine how cool this series could have been if they stuck with the original premise of a bounty hunter in a space Western.
    14000
  114. Never in a thousand years would i have imagined Critical drinker watching RRR
    14000
  115. Watching Rachael Zegler walking on stage was weird weird.
    14000
  116. Turns out the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the wise was him being put into the Acolyte.
    14000
  117. There's a reason Disney keeps making its villians sympathetic. Because then young people will learn to always excuse their bad behavior.
    14000
  118. This is the kind of movie that would be considered mediocre 10 years ago but is considered decent now because of how far our standards have fallen
    14000
  119. When a movie has a high audience score and a low critic score, you know it's got some potential.
    14000
  120. It was only made for Agatha all along.
    13000
  121. The fact they left the comment section on is the only redeeming quality this film has
    13000
  122. Luke couldn't teach Rey anything since that would be the ultimate sin of mansplaining
    13000
  123. "The first one was good." - The Todd Phillips filmography
    13000
  124. My favourite comment was easily: "Mirror Mirror on the wall....... When did Lord Farquad get so tall?"
    13000
  125. As Tolkien said, "Evil cannot create, only corrupt."
    13000
  126. I like how Scar betrayed his BRUTHAAA over a chick he’d known for 3 days
    13000
  127. Seeing Deadpool make fun of the MCU is the most satisfying thing in a Marvel movie in years.
    13000
  128. Now Netflix is gonna Netflix harder than any Netflix movie has ever Netflixed before
    13000
  129. Anyone else feel Nebula was a more compelling female protagonist than Captain Marvel
    13000
  130. Twins separated for 15+ years but grow up to have the exact same hairstyle.
    13000
  131. The killer is the Frenchie subplot. Everyone hates it. His new love story comes out of nowhere, has zero connection and is clearly there for checking the gay box. Plus, it destroys everything he and Kimiko built up over 3 seasons.
    13000
  132. Velma is a great example at showing us why we can never lower our standards, because no matter how low they are the writers can always go lower
    13000
  133. Frankly, England has a greater chance of reinstating the death penalty than Hollywood has of ever changing.
    13000
  134. You ever notice how these networks renew shows that nobody liked, while cancelling shows people do like?
    13000
  135. Drinker saved me from a lot of useless cinema visits the past years.
    13000
  136. I loved the part where the Dark Lord Bezos wasted a billion dollars. So stunning. So brave.
    13000
  137. I always wondered how Rafiki got his staff, these are the questions I needed answers to! Turns out, he found it
    13000
  138. they turned bucky into that unlockable boss character that is no where near as powerful he was when you had to fight him.
    13000
  139. After thousands years of careful planing, Night King finally crosses the wall and kills Theon Greyjoy. Amazing Story !
    13000
  140. This is why I trust your opinion on film. You don't give a free pass just for being conservative, nor do you hate it because it's liberal.
    13000
  141. Hollywood:- remakes old movie for cash grab by saying its for the "modern audience" The audience:- Rewatches the original.
    12000
  142. When your show is basically a gigantic self-insert, it's about narcissism, not "inclusion."
    12000
  143. "A children's story that is only enjoyed by children...is a bad children's story." - CS Lewis Glad to see someone in Hollywood still gets it.
    12000
  144. Can’t believe we’ve seen a Jedi with a higher cholesterol than midiclorians, mr Obi Wants Wegovy, Qui Gon Chins, Soda, Kit Fatso. Surely using the force burns calories…
    12000
  145. The fact that they ejected hundreds of actual homeless so that they could pat themselves on the back about making a movie about the homeless is so incredibly ironic
    12000
  146. A moment of silence for all the brain cells we lost from watching this show
    12000
  147. So done with Star Wars.
    12000
  148. Seth Rogan is a producer. Nuff said.
    12000
  149. Never let a side character do a Main character's job.
    12000
  150. Disney was finished the moment they decided to prioritise The Message over proper storytelling
    12000
  151. “From penis to vaginaaaa” will be remembered, while the rest of this movie will be forgotten lmao
    12000
  152. I have to say it’s a relief to see a movie that isn’t 99% unfunny jokes and takes itself seriously. I mean, you’d expect an Oppenheimer movie to be dark but these days you honestly can’t tell
    12000
  153. Fun correction, YOUTUBE themselves turned off the comments on Santa Inc's trailer. They needed to protect that small creator, HBO Max.
    12000
  154. "How do you kill a man who is already dead?" -Given them a remake in the 21st century.
    12000
  155. You’d swear this show was literally made to punish Star Wars fans
    12000
  156. Superman needs to be handled like the first Captain America movie, and that character. No angst, no anger, no snark, just solid, principled heroics.
    12000
  157. Kennedy's incompetence is absolutely shocking, and the only thing more shocking is the fact that she wasn't replaced years ago.
    12000
  158. The most unrealistic part of this movie is how clean San Francisco is.
    12000
  159. I had trouble relating to this new story line without a random Russian civilian family tossed in the middle of it.
    12000
  160. How to become a millionaire: Have a franchise worth billions and put Kathleen Kennedy in charge of it.
    12000
  161. The bar is so low that they accidentally tripped over it
    12000
  162. I think it's hilarious how most SJW's miss that Wakanda was an ethnostate that wanted to preserve it's national identity and keep it's borders closed to neighbouring nations....
    12000
  163. Someone needs to tell Ryan Reynolds that this dimension already has a Will Smith.
    12000
  164. (100 years from now) “my grandma said, “I don’t care what they tell you in school, the Critical Drinker was black”
    12000
  165. I love how Hollywood is so unaware of people's disdain. We don't care anymore
    12000
  166. It’s as if there’s a conspiracy to destroy all good franchises. Star Wars, Star Trek, Marvel, Lord of the Rings, Doctor Who…
    12000
  167. Refuses to kill the guy actually responsible for the deaths of the king and queen, but perfectly happy to slaughter her way off the ship, with the majority of her kills being people that in no way were complicit. Yep, sounds about right.
    12000
  168. "The Drinker has jurisdiction wherever the Drinker finds himself to be" just has to become another classic line you use every few videos or so
    12000
  169. Disney is all about strong, independent women… until she has opinions that they don’t like.
    12000
  170. SPOILERS! The final moments with our protagonist perfectly demonstrates Hollywood's (any many viewers') warped idea of what a good character is when said character is a woman. After being pushed to her limit, losing her brother, and watching a sizeable portion of her tribe's hunters and warriors die, she is named War Cheif and has a big smile on her face whilst everyone cheers for her. In Predator, after being pushed to his limit, losing his entire team, and a good friend of his outside of said team, Dutch's final moments on screen are him sitting there physically exhausted, mentally scarred by how many friends of his were killed right in front of him, and probably already riddled with survivor's guilt. I honestly do not understand why so many critics are praising this film for its character development.
    12000
  171. Remember how Joker was criticized because it glorifies violence? But when Harley Quinn does it...
    12000
  172. The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant compared to the power of disney's ability to ruin literally everything they look at
    11000
  173. The dumbest scene was watching farmers in the far future collecting their harvest by hand in slow motion and chucking it unto a levitating cart. Instead of using a single combine harvester.
    11000
  174. The first song to play on MTV was called “Video killed the radio star”. Social Media has done it again, the mysterious movie star has become extinct.
    11000
  175. Acoshyte
    11000
  176. I actually enjoyed the show. However I found it odd that the bad guy in the citadel was a scientist who discovered the multiverse and this somehow meant he was also immortal, could control time and control the beast which could consume all matter, he kind of breezed over how this power was all possible simply because he discovered other universes
    11000
  177. Kathleen Kennedy's failure has finally reached mainstream awareness. Most hilariously, she can't do a damn thing to retaliate against Trey and Matt.
    11000
  178. In an earth-based movie, these folk would get strangled by a cordless phone.
    11000
  179. I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.
    11000
  180. Top comment on her video: "Collaborate with The Critical Drinker. He's a big fan!" What a legend that wrote that. XD
    11000
  181. "You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become a villain" This man did both
    11000
  182. This amazon series was simply an abomination. It reveals how empty and dumb our culture has become. BUT It gives me hope that you are pursuing your own independent film and I am honored to support it. Thank you.
    11000
  183. I'm entirely convinced that movie budgets are ridiculous because someone is laundering money through them
    11000
  184. The fact that this had an $80 million budget and looked THIS GOOD should illustrate the problems with budgetary waste in movies.

  185. Making movies out of comics should be easier. The story is already written and they even have pictures to help the bad screenwriters not get confused.
    11000
  186. This whole movie was basically a passion project not for just comic fans but also for Ryan as well.
    11000
  187. Don’t forget the first ever female character to be strong: Jennifer Lawrence
    11000
  188. A florist named lily bloom, i’m done.
    11000
  189. "Toxic misogynist gamers hate seeing a strong female character!!!" <Turns Lara into a weepy lesbian and deliberately erases her femininity>
    10000
  190. "I always intended to ship Satan with the Lady of Light" -Tolkien.
    10000
  191. The era of watching reviews of a movie rather than the movie itself
    10000
  192. It’s a bit of a stretch to have Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards.
    10000
  193. Where were the female Custodes when the Westfold fell?
    10000
  194. It's a crime that this movie wasn't called Bad Boys 4 Life.
    10000
  195. It's like they killed Voldemort in the middle of the movie and now they spend the remaining hours fighting over the house cup
    10000
  196. Star Wars has become your drunken toxic ex trying to win you back with more disappointment.
    10000
  197. Napoleon needs an entire miniseries, like John Adams did. He had an entire era named after him, you need to narrow your focus signifocantly. Waterloo alone had an entire film devoted to it.
    10000
  198. Let’s face it, the reviews for this movie are gonna be better than the actual film.
    10000
  199. Turning opposition to child trafficking into an exclusively right-wing issue is a telling self-own.
    10000
  200. The silver lining in it being cancelled after one season...it'll never be ruined, it'll always be the work of art that it is.
    10000
  201. “ The finest people I’ve ever met were in pubs” Absolutely touching.
    10000
  202. Henry Cavill is the perfect example of what a great actor, who respects his character, can do with poor writing. This show would be lost without him.
    10000
  203. The best comment I've read "The people who used to bully you for liking Star Wars are now the ones in control of it"
    10000
  204. At least GOT had the dignity to hide the bad choreography in darkness
    10000
  205. I'll be honest, as refreshingly simple and fun as this movie is, a spinoff about Furiosa should have come out a DECADE ago. This is the definition of striking while the iron is ICE COLD.
    10000
  206. I loved the part where the Evil Queen and Snow White came together and agreed that beauty is a social construct and lived happily ever after
    10000
  207. So after years of us being called basement dwelling incels, and nothing but sexist, misogynistic bigots…the main stream is now agreeing with us? What a shock…
    10000
  208. The idea that Daredevil would run away from a deaf girl is peak Disney. He's down to throwdown with The Punisher, who actively kills all of his opponents, but it's simply all too much when a deaf girl comes into the picture. Amazing, brave story telling for real for real lmfao
    10000
  209. Elven warriors in Two Towers: stern facial expressions, synchronized fighting choreography, all of the movements they do are quick, calculated and efficient. They feel like warriors who honed their craft for millenia Elven warriors of RoP: pudgy, out of shape Californian corporate office employees
    10000
  210. My grandmother always told me: "No matter what they teach you in school, the WeylandYutani Androids were non binary"
    10000
  211. When the cave scientist with cave-mapping robots got lost in that very uncomplicated cave, I lost faith in cinema as a medium.
    10000
  212. Expecting Star Wars fans to come back after The Acolyte is like expecting a customer to come back to a restaurant after getting food poisoning.
    10000
  213. The "Whistle While You Work" scene just shows that they learned nothing from Mulan. Such a basic change entirely undermines the intent. Snow White goes from a nice young woman willing to do her part to a spoiled princess ordering the homeowners around like her servants.
    10000
  214. Blake Lively acting like a victim is the craziest thing I've Amber Heard 😂
    10000
  215. Seeing the abomination that Disney has become crash and burn brings me no small amount of joy. They ruthlessly butchered the franchises that both inspired us and brought us all endless amounts of joy when we were children and they certainly are paying the price for it now.
    10000
  216. My grandmother always told me “I don’t care what they told you in school… John McClane was always a girl-boss”
    10000
  217. We now live in a world where freakin One Piece got a better live action adaptation than Death Note. Respecting the source material is key.
    10000
  218. Tolkien rolling in his grave could be used as a new type of green energy
    10000
  219. A hero with no Super Soldier Serum fighting The Hulk will always be laughable
    10000
  220. Oda is really protective of his One Piece work and won't let anyone tarnish it, which he managed to succeed.
    10000
  221. These aren't actors anymore; they're professional victims and they need to be banned from social media, so we're not subjected to their nonsense.
    10000
  222. $700k a minute ....... thats money laundering on an industrial scale
    10000
  223. That scene of Foster in the fast-food restaurant comparing the real life burger to the advertisement was probably the greatest criticism towards mass media commercialism I’ve seen
    10000
  224. The worst insult is not anger, it's indifference. No one cares about these entitled overgrown children or what they think.
    9900
  225. A film nobody asked for or wanted.
    9900
  226. Disney had this golden franchise for less than a decade and they managed to completely destroy it and piss on the ashes.
    9900
  227. The only way this movie could have been worse, is if I’d paid $15 and drove to the theater.
    9900
  228. GW has awoken an autistic giant and filled him with a terrible resolve
    9900
  229. The 15 people who were waiting for this are absolutely devastated
    9900
  230. If Tom Cruise isn't saving us from an alien invasion, he's saving us from terrible movies made by terrible people 🎉🎉
    9800
  231. >All the marketing is around Red Hulk. >He is in like 5 minutes. Outstanding move.
    9800
  232. Was holding it together until the music started. One of your best videos, Drinker. Ironically inspirational.
    9800
  233. "I'm not a trained film maker, just an activist" She actually said that out loud. Like we are supposed to applaud or something andI've said it many times before: Kathleen Kennedy is 100% doing all of this out of pure spite. Long before even South Park pointed it out. I can only imagine how dark and empty her heart must be.
    9800
  234. At this point, I’m more interested in the reviews of these movies than the actual films
    9700
  235. I watched this last weekend and actually kind of enjoyed it. Is it a masterpiece, no, but is it watchable and fun, yes.
    9700
  236. Drinker must be heartbroken about last night news about the cancellation of his favorite show ever
    9700
  237. 'We Didn't Know How Good We Had It" could be the title of a very long book about pre-2014 entertainment.
    9700
  238. I never thought James Cameron could make a movie even more blue than the first, but here we are.
    9700
  239. The failure of One! The failure of Two! And the failure of Many!
    9700
  240. Can we just appreciate how Zemo is the only villain to have survived and succeed twice in his plans in the MCU? Like this pretty much solidifies him as one of the most intelligent and strategic characters ever
    9600
  241. Perhaps if Ms. Zegler rewatched the original, she'd notice that Snow White manages to maintain her kind, trusting nature and dignity despite the abuse she suffers at the hand of her stepmother, overcome her immense fears about being abandoned in the middle of the woods and calm herself down when her (perfectly valid) emotions get the best of her, and then not only befriend a group of men who are very different from her, but establish herself as the respected and valued authority figure among them, encouraging them to be better versions of themselves and bringing genuine joy into their lives. She doesn't demean or belittle the people around her in order to make herself appear strong; she IS strong, in a quiet, gentle way, without the audience or other characters ever having to be directly told that she is.
    9600
  242. "As far as I’m concerned, you should step away from saying anything so that you can still be seen by the audience in any character.” - Kurt Russel
    9600
  243. As Gary/Nerdrotic said, billions of dollars and hundreds of people can’t make something half as good as one man in his spare time.
    9500
  244. Definitely one of the movies ever.
    9500
  245. 2016 Ghostbusters was so bad The Pirate Bay actually issued refunds.
    9500
  246. You are right. What's the point of bringing in talented directors into the MCU when the MCU directs themselves?
    9500
  247. Ellie: I can't forgive a random guy who calls me a mean word but I sure can forgive the person who killed my only father figure. 10/10 masterpiece
    9500
  248. The fact that no celebrities, tv network, news, politicians haven’t mentioned this movie, speaks volumes. Props to you for giving this movie the attention it deserves.
    9500
  249. It’s a surreal existence when an internet drunkard provides more in-depth commentary than “professional” film critics...
    9400
  250. There's a reason People cheered when Thanos punches the shit out of Captain Marvel
    9300
  251. The only white male Jedi in the show kills himself because of his guilt... what a unique and powerful message.
    9300
  252. “This is not a passing of the torch, but torching away the past.” -The Longman
    9200
  253. If you couldn't tell that Drinker is being sarcastic, you're probably this movie's target audience.
    9200
  254. Disney will either correct their mistakes or they will crash and burn. Either way, it will be entertaining.
    9200
  255. Glad to see someone else sees this. My dad puts it this way "Imagine a group of middle schoolers coming together to rewrite all classic films and IPs. That's modern media."
    9200
  256. The Power of Scissors.
    9200
  257. I don’t even go watch Star Wars products anymore I just watch YouTube videos on it.
    9100
  258. >Be a Karen >Hire other Karens >project fails SEXISM BAD REEEEEEEEEE
    9100
  259. Ah Season 3, the season where everyone in the fandom tried to gaslight you into thinking you were the weird one for thinking the show was getting too political.
    9100
  260. I'm surprised Dwayne Johnson didn't apply for the role of Ben Grimm/The Thing just to make a rock pun.
    9100
  261. "Brave New World" ... because naming it after a dystopian novel about people being bred and conditioned to obedience is just so much better.
    9000
  262. It’s hilarious how these studios just don’t understand that if they gave what the fans wanted they’d make money hand over fist.
    9000
  263. Somehow Kennedy returned
    9000
  264. Hollywood needs to take note, Evelyn is how you write a female character. Michelle Yeoh shows that she can still hang when paired with competent writers that care about character development and delivery.
    9000
  265. A modern Civil War movie, released in an election year. Couldn’t get more opportune timing than that.
    9000
  266. Captain “America”, a superhero that doesn’t represent America. What could go wrong?
    9000
  267. Rey Movie: gets shelved away Everyone: "Oh no, anyway."
    8900
  268. "But unfortunately ther is only so much we human actors can do" is basically the line that makes me think WHY do people make live action adaptations of animated movies/shows. With animation you can do so much, show so much more than live action. Even if you go through the Herculean task of making a "good" adaptation there is still going to be magic that is lost with the switch. I'm looking at YOU Disney remakes.
    8900
  269. Whell Drinker, she has red hair so they will probably make her Black in the live action adaptation.
    8900
  270. The best part about this show was that Alan went to the Henry Cavill school of caring about and respecting the source material. Alan read every book so he could get his character DOWN, I respect dedication like that.
    8900
  271. The fact that Dune Part 2 received less than half of the nominations this movie received should tell you how out of touch the academy is
    8900
  272. The way Douglas delivered the iconic line "I'm the bad guy?" with convincing confusion has stayed with me for the past 30 years.
    8900
  273. There’s only one Captain America.
    8900
  274. Star Wars is dead. Let’s just accept it.
    8900
  275. I lost it when the villain brought his own violin players to provide dramatic backing music for his betrayal.
    8900
  276. The best thing about The Dark Knight Rises, is that Bane is so quoteable.
    8800
  277. Not only did I forget this movie existed, I forgot I had already watched it.
    8800
  278. That “go away now” really got me in the feels 😢
    8800
  279. Whats with the Fat Jedi btw? Isn't temptation a bad thing? How are you supposed to resist the dark side if you can't even resist cake?
    8700
  280. Look, being black or a minority isn’t a character trait. And being homosexual or bisexual or whatever-sexual, certainly is not a personality point. How about writing a well fleshed out character and see what happens.
    8700
  281. "hI aVeNgErS!" so fucking cringe
    8700
  282. 1: "Attack me with all of your strength." 2: "No, I don't think I will." 1: "Why not?" 2: "The way you asked was cringe."
    8700
  283. Best line ever: “I’m not locked in here with you, you’re locked in here with ME!!”
    8600
  284. If Disney is hurting for viewers, they should post a video about Kalthleen Kennedy's retirement.
    8600
  285. In an interview after this short film was made, Shatner said Gene Rodenberry would be "rolling over in his grave" if he saw what modern Star Trek had become.
    8600
  286. Acolyte Fans: “There are dozens of us! Dozens…”
    8500
  287. Somehow Palpatine returned
    8500
  288. Hollywood: “We are remaking “Jaws” as a series and the shark will be a racist, bigoted creature with an anti-gay agenda.” Fans: “Huh?” Hollywood: “Well it is a Great White.” Fans: slap forehead
    8500
  289. I haven’t watched a lot of South Park until recently, but I respect how Matt and Trey are always able to make such on-point commentary and mockery about all sides of life even 20 years later.
    8500
  290. >both sides want to kill sauron >both sides know sauron is inside elven city >proceed to fight each other outside city ignoring sauron
    8500
  291. The Night King was trying to kill Bran to save us from this disappointment
    8500
  292. I wish the Rings of Power had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.
    8400
  293. "My name is Rey." "Rey what?" "Rey McClain."
    8400
  294. The fact that IGN only gave this a 5, proves they’re impossible to please 😂
    8400
  295. It’s good to see the consequences of their actions.
    8400
  296. Having the lead actress bash & trash the original classic animated film is a bold advertising move Cotton, lets see how it plays out for them.
    8400
  297. Did you hear? Disney FINALLY solved piracy! Make a movie SO bad that no one even WANTS to pirate it!
    8400
  298. Director: And..... CUT! Conor McGregor: You guys were filming?
    8300
  299. Kennedy’s retirement got announced and then cancelled. Pretty on brand for her if you ask me lol
    8300
  300. Don't ask questions. Just consume product and get excited for next product.
    8300
  301. No one would insert themselves into that character except the author.
    8300
  302. This movie did the unthinkable. It improved on the original and is justifiable in it’s existence. Tony Scott would be so happy.
    8300
  303. I do NOT want a "capitalism is bad" lecture from multimillionaires.
    8300
  304. Let's be honest, one can't blame the audience for being jaded and just plain uninterested in anything Star Wars these days.
    8200
  305. The witches are so powerful they can easily kill a Jedi using the thing they said wasn't a weapon. Then they all died, at once, by a fire, caused by a single girl, in a giant fortress made of stone, with people inside the fortress who can project barriers and control gravity.
    8200
  306. The main lesson from The Boys is that we need more Karl Urban.
    8200
  307. The power of losing moneeeeey
    8200
  308. My favorite part is where She-Hulk defeated all of her enemies by finding mean Tweets from 2010.
    8100
  309. “Terminator 2” is the perfect example of how to use CGI properly and efficiently. The CGI in that movie is still respectable, by today’s standards. The fact that they relied mostly upon real life effects and used CGI, only when necessary is what makes it great.
    8100
  310. We truly live in a society where mocking a film is more entertaining than the film itself.
    8100
  311. And now a moment of silence for Indiana Jones. You will be missed.
    8100
  312. Peter Dinklage has seen to it that no other actor under 5 foot will ever work in Hollywood again. Good job, Pete.
    8100
  313. Disney has mishandled so many iconic franchises. This is objective fact. A handful of happy Twitter users versus the hundreds of thousands that they drove away does not a feasible fandom make.
    8000
  314. Like Terminator and Predator, the Alien franchise only has 2 movies.
    8000
  315. The director said that movies are meant to entertain people, not send messages. I approve this sentiment.
    8000
  316. Lucasfilm’s ruined every single franchise they get their hands on, and at this point, I support them closing permanently.
    8000
  317. To be fair there Last of Us never needed any sequels or a show in the first place
    8000
  318. Not to mention she was written from the perspective of Tony in Iron Man given it was his movie. Additionally it was Tony’s WEAKNESS - precisely what she was there to exploit. She was a Sex object but let’s not forget that’s how she found herself sitting on Tony’s armchair the night of his birthday party helping him pick out his Jaeger. She delivered the single most important line of dialogue that directly led to Tony making decisions that forever altered his character and officially gave SHIELD their foothold: “I would do whatever I wanted to do, with whomever I wanted to do it with.” I too thought the entire point was her fully using her assets as she successfully infiltrated the inside circle of one of the most powerful, revered men in science on the planet without detection. But stands to reason she also was likely a badass if her op called for it. Don’t know why those would be at odds. Great vid, sir!
    8000
  319. The Penguin is arguably the best show of the year. The showrunner and writer was a woman, and the main co star was a woman, but nobody cared because it was actually done well. Lauren LeFranc and Cristen Milioti have more talent than every Disney Star Wars project put together (excluding Andor). But that doesn’t fit the narrative they wanna push to justify their failure. Hopefully Lauren gets another DC project, she’s earned it
    7900
  320. Star Wars: The Phantom Audience.
    7900
  321. Glad to see so much Brosnan praise in the comments. Seriously underrated, and the guy just looks like Bond should. Radiates suave coolness.
    7800
  322. Watching Top Gun: Maverick reminded me just how visually impressive movies can be without a constant barrage of CGI nightmares. CGI can be incredibly useful, but I've really gotten sick of it over the years.
    7800
  323. Why did the brotherhood of steel promote the 3 weakest nerdiest unmilitaristic people I’ve ever seen.
    7800
  324. Ironically, Lucasfilm managed to butcher the character arcs of their female leads more than their male ones this time around
    7800
  325. “So this how a bad show dies, with thunderous negative reviews.” - Padme Amidala
    7700
  326. It's amazing to see how the Walt Disney Company allows the talent to trash talk something that Walt Disney himself had a hand in creating.
    7700
  327. It’s so nice to have the drinker recap a movie you’ll never watch.
    7700
  328. When jokes are more thought out than the actual movie
    7600
  329. Somehow the Rings of Power returned
    7600
  330. Between the Acolyte, Agatha, and Wicked, it has been a rough year for witches.
    7600
  331. You gotta love a "feminist" movie where the conflict results from one woman being jealous of another woman's looks, and then the boss battle is a literal cat fight.
    7600
  332. "Evil cannot create. It can only distort that which is good"- Tolkien ( we all know this will be a massive abomination)
    7500
  333. If they can’t even handle Boba Fett, a character who has this kind of show gift wrapped for him it’s so easy to accomplish properly, I shudder and dread to think about how badly they’re gonna screw up Kenobi.
    7500
  334. If there’s an actor who seriously needs a new agent, it’s Henry Cavill.
    7500
  335. A vampire movies that portrays vampires as evil monsters, I missed those days.
    7500
  336. In short, Finnish John Wick. Enough said. Go see it.
    7400
  337. I've seen 0 minutes of this show but listened to every word Drinker has said about it.
    7400
  338. Why does the feminist fantasy of the perfect woman, mimic to the "T", the stereotype of the alpha male...the same stereotype that they're always complaining is "toxic"?
    7400
  339. "Modern movies hate their own fans." Drinker, that was never lost on us.
    7400
  340. 'Remember when geek culture was reserved for actual geeks who cared about the subject matter rather than political activists...." That's a really great quote
    7400
  341. I respect the fact they went 100% goofy with it instead of trying to make it serious/silly. I laughed out loud at Godzilla and Kong fighting at the pyramids
    7400
  342. As a 140-year-old, I loved this movie back in the days!
    7400
  343. It appears Drinker is cautiously optimistic about a superhero movie. Unusual.
    7300
  344. You know Disney can't wait to show us that daughter we didn't know Indy had.
    7200
  345. Neither save nor destroy. It will simply serve as the closing chapter in the book, but what a way to close the MCU and put the last nail in the coffin.
    7200
  346. My favourite part of this film, it’s when she said "It’s webbing time", truly movie of the year
    7200
  347. I’m so glad YouTube has channels like this. They provide infinitely more entertainment than 99% of Hollywood over the past decade.
    7200
  348. A Scotsman playing an Egyptian, a Frenchman playing a Scotsman, an American playing a Russian. See? Highlander was doing Diversity based casting before it was cool!
    7200
  349. The Ms Marvel trailer felt more like an old 90's Nickelodeon show than a superhero show.
    7200
  350. I've noticed the drinker's "Go away now" is much less angry when he reviews a movie he likes
    7200
  351. Jurassic World: Regurgitate
    7200
  352. I kinda want this to sweep the Oscars, it would be hilarious for a man to win best actress.
    7200
  353. My grandmother told me “I don’t care what they told you in school… Die Hard IS a Christmas movie”
    7200
  354. The fact that the hero refuses to die and acts like an actual man makes him one of the greatest action heroes.
    7200
  355. I love the metaphor of the stairs, he keeps struggling up, trying to stay sane. Then after his transformation, he comes dancing down.
    7200
  356. every time a bad movie comes out I smile, because it means a great critical drinker video is coming
    7200
  357. This is why I trust the Drinker. He fair and honest.
    7200
  358. You know what the ironic thing is,? Sauron didn't destroy this Middle Earth. Amazon did.
    7100
  359. The oscars, "Are you not entertained?!" Me, "No, no I am not."
    7100
  360. Saying a Star Wars show is “not terrible” is the best thing you can say about the franchise now
    7100
  361. Imagine, giving the audience the movie is targeting exactly what they want. What a novel concept.
    7100
  362. Write female characters Not female characters.
    7100
  363. The people who dislike this video don't have a multi-pass.
    7100
  364. Seeing Taika Waititi laughing at the CGI after the film had released was such a gut punch. A director I'd previously respected shitting on the (likely very overworked) CGI artists that helped to make the film just seemed so callous. After Ragnarok, this was an incredible disappointment.
    7100
  365. Ryan Reynolds is currently trying to convince Hollywood to give Blade the Logan treatment for Wesley Snipes. I hope THAT goes through instead.

  367. For idiots, by idiots. A Star Wars Story.
    7000
  368. Its been brewing for years now, GW has never been a consumer friendly company- constantly attacking fan content, putting out statements meant to be 'signaling for inclusivity' while simultaneously shouting at anyone who disagreed with the message to gtfo- this was inevitable.
    7000
  369. Remember that infamous interview of Alex Kurtzman, where he blatantly stated that he doesn't care about things like canon or even telling engaging stories, but see's Star Trek more as a ''vessel" to promote various sociopolitical issues, that he cared about? Yeah, that worked out fine...
    7000
  370. A movie that tells a good story, has great characters and respects the lore/history…sign me up.
    7000
  371. When anything good actually comes out I'm almost confused and wary. Like a dog that's been kicked too many times and is being petted by a genuine person. Hollywood has really fucked me up.
    6900
  372. If the media says it’s bad, it surely must be the best movie in the year
    6900
  373. Madame Web: “I will be the worst movie of 2024” Borderlands: “Not on my watch!”
    6900
  374. My grandmother told me, "no matter what Hollywood tells you, rewriting history to fit your narrative is bigotry".
    6900
  375. I always thought Disney Star Wars was a tragedy, until I realized it was actually a comedy.
    6900
  376. It’s weird how a decade ago, I was hyped for Star Wars. But now, I feel nothing but apathy
    6900
  377. I like how she hates that a man had to save a woman from a coma, but doesn't care that a woman put her into that coma purely out of jealousy.
    6900
  378. "Not winning any Oscars" is a compliment at this point, not going to lie.
    6900
  379. Marvel spending hundreds of millions of dollars to be told that rubber suit monster movie looked better is such a brutal burn lmao
    6800
  380. The ultra rich talking about waste of resources and privilege never gets old.
    6800
  381. Fans: “Give us more of what we want!” Marvel: “No, I don’t think I will”
    6800
  382. McGregor walks about the whole movie as if he had a tree trunk under each arm
    6800
  383. Truly compelling - a struggle of a vampire trying to survive in a world where nobody bleeds. How metaphorical
    6800
  384. To quote Harrison Ford, "Um, I don't care."
    6700
  385. My teenage daughter told me a few weeks ago that she didn't really like movies and didn't understand why people care so much about them. In response we have spent the last few weekends watching some of my favorites; Gattaca, Vanilla Sky, Shawshank Redemption, The Grren Mile, Apollo 13, Interview with the Vampire, Dances with Wolves, Planet of the Apes (1968), Sweeney Todd, etc and now she concedes that she actually just doesn't like modern movies. She said to me that she just hates all movies made after 2010... lmao...
    6700
  386. Superman saving the little girl is the best part of the trailer.
    6700
  387. We're also overlooking WHY the F did his mom inherit the kingdom? The first movie made it pretty darn clear that you had to fight to become the Wakanda ruler. Shit they even did it twice. Yet when he dies all the other men who have tried to claim the throne before just said NAhhhh she'll do fine.
    6700
  388. I still find it hard to believe someone thought "Weaponized Autism" would be a good idea to be in a movie
    6700
  389. Jedi master: “Close your eyes, what do you see?” Youngling: “I see a man, he was in the Amazon with my mother as she was researching spiders right before she died.”
    6700
  390. For some reason Shaun of the Dead remains one of the only zombie movies to show the military being competent.
    6600
  391. I think the biggest mistake this movie made was coming out almost a decade after Fury Road's hype had all but dried up. Imagine how much more buzz this film would have gotten if it was released in 2017 or even 2019.
    6600
  392. Now that Drinker is on the case, Im fully invested to something I didnt care about 11 minutes ago
    6600
  393. Everyone to Snow White and the Huntsman: "Perhaps we treated you too harshly."
    6600
  394. I hope Henry Cavill knows how much mileage we as a society are getting out of his delivery of the word "fuck"
    6600
  395. The Ghoul ripping on side quests by saying "thou shall always get distracted by other bullshit" or something like that made me chuckle.
    6600
  396. Let's be real here: the ONLY reason any people defend Holdo is because she's a woman. If a male general had treated a female captain with the same disdain, arrogance, and pettiness that Holdo showed to Poe, that general would be rightly called out as a toxic, ineffective bully.
    6600
  397. Hollywood doesn't deserve Henry Cavill
    6600
  398. Clint Eastwood's "Unforgiven" was textbook example of deconstruction of western genre and whole Eastwood's acting career in some sense. Showing what it really takes to go around killing people and where you end up as former hired gun, full of regret and despair. But characters also were treated with respect, yeah they made mistakes and slowly fading away, just as their time, but they really were once great and still got it, if you push them hard enough. THAT is deconstruction. But what modern coprorate fools (like Jar-Jar Abrams in particular) is just parasitism.
    6500
  399. As a German myself I just have to admire the amount of talent in this movie, it is absolutely refreshing to see a German movie that good even if it is, again, a war movie 😂
    6500
  400. You can tell she's is very annoyed that the response to her retirement was met with near universal praise
    6500
  401. The sarcasm plus the in-your-face female power scenes is just brilliant.
    6500
  402. Benny is a more realized character than anyone in the new Star Wars trilogy.
    6500
  403. "I see light" "I see fire" "I see dead franchises"
    6400
  404. It’s hard to get disappointed when you’re not expecting anything And yet somehow they manage to do it
    6400
  405. I hope it has a decent compelling story and not just stunning visuals.
    6400
  406. It was really cool when America is told to urgently cover all the reflections in the room and she starts covering puddles but then stops to look really closely at a puddle.

  407. "The one man who made a difference. Five times before..... Is about to make a difference.... Again! Only this time........ It's different!"
    6400
  408. Xenomorphs being destroyed by corporate greed is actually canon funny enough
    6400
  409. Doctor Who is like Star wars’ situation, it’s been dead for a long time but the networks keep shooting the body
    6400
  410. Some movie studios are always trying to ice-skate uphill.
    6400
  411. Sounds like this entire show is the writers trying to copy Peter Jackson's work and failing every step
    6400
  412. The dog in The Thing is a better actor than most of Hollywood today.
    6400
  413. Have you ever noticed how these networks usually renew shows that nobody likes, while cancelling shows people do like?
    6400
  414. Nothing can save Star Wars at this point
    6400
  415. Arcane: How to have a Female Lead as the main protagonist and do it RIGHT.

  417. The late, Great Bradley James Allan was the 2nd unit director. a member of the JCS (Jackie Chan stunt) team and a great action choreographer, HE"S the one responsible for the great fight scenes and stunt work. he passed away this year, before he was able to see his work on the big screen. R.I.P....😥

  418. I don't usually binge shows, but I blew through The Boys faster than A-train blew through what's her face.

    6300
  420. As long as Kimmel continues to host this show, I’ll believe the answer is no
    6300
  421. Thanos wipes out half of all life Eternals: Nah it’ll be fine
    6300
  422. Michael Fassbender really does have the unfortunate distinction of being the most talented actor in the worst era of Hollywood. If he'd come on the scene a decade earlier he'd be a legend by now.
    6300
  423. Disney killed mufasa and framed Scar
    6300
  424. "It's the Least Bad Episode So Far!" is truly the nicest possible thing that can be said about this absolute travesty of a show lmao
    6300
  425. The Most Hated Movie Ever So Far
    6300
  426. Mystique: "I can't remember the last time you sacrificed something..." She says to the man in a wheelchair. She says to the man who took a bullet to save his best friend. She says to the man who stood up to Apocalypse, ALONE... She says to the man who watched his best friend kill somebody with a coin, because he was unwilling to kill his friend to stop him... And on and on....
    6200
  427. The best comment I read on another video about this movie was, “I almost walked out of my own house!” I’m still laughing at that one! 🤣😂🤣😂 Original comment by Jonathan B!
    6200
  428. One of the few cases where we would be like "it's completely fine to completely ignore the source material" and of course its the one case where they pull out all the stops to be true to the original.
    6200
  429. One time not too long ago, I was asked how my day was going at work. I said “have you ever seen Falling Down?” thinking the guy has never seen it and all he said was “oh shit” 😂😊😊😊😊
    6200
  430. My god, this video was so on the mark.
    6200
  431. "It's psychotic. They keep creating new ways to celebrate mediocrity." - Mr Incredible.
    6200
  432. One thing I miss about the 90s is how so many interesting movie ideas were made and how inventive they could be. A world where almost the whole planet is flooded and showing how humanity has adapted to it is a really cool idea and the movie doing all that practically was also pretty impressive.
    6200
  433. The best counter example of the “fans are toxic and hate women and POCs” argument is Rogue One, which coincidentally released the same year as the Ghostbusters reboot. Rogue One is nearly universally loved by Star Wars fans, who generally agree that it’s the best thing Disney has done with Star Wars. This, despite having a female lead, her team which consists solely of POCs, her black mentor, and virtually every villain being a white male. Evidently fans really are more concerned with a good story than the makeup of the characters, and will eagerly support well-written females and POCs.
    6100
  434. First Rule of Fight Club: Don’t talk about fight club. Drinker: nah it’ll be fine...
    6100
  435. I still can’t get over the fact that is Colin Farrell in that makeup. It’s just fucking incredible.
    6100
  436. A friend of mine once compared Jack Horner to the average Twitter user. I responded that at least Jack is aware of how evil he is and doesn't pretend to be good
    6100
  437. The whole concept of a “multiverse” got played out way sooner than anyone expected, I feel
    6000
  438. Oppenheimer - the creator of what boomers thought would destroy society. Barbie - the manifestation of the ideology that actually destroyed society.
    6000
  439. “The Hobbit trilogy felt more stretched than Courtney Cox’s face” = best Drinker line in a long time.
    6000
  440. An insult is putting it mildly Evil has attempted to corrupt what was good. It’s just impressive how awful they were at it.
    6000
  441. I didn't check the date before clicking this video.... Damn good prank.
    6000
  442. Wow. Disney. You truly are incredible. It took you 3 years, multiple rewrites, unnecessary CGI, and 209 million dollars just for me to enjoy a comment section of a movie I will never watch.
    5900
  443. Of my friend, I can only say this: of all the souls I have encountered in my travels, his was the most... human
    5900
  444. “It’s dead, Jim.”
    5900
  445. The lead actor aged so much in only 3 years because that’s what The Acolyte does to a person 😂
    5900
  446. Tides are turning, lads. It's time to take our hobbies back.
    5900
  447. Collin Ferrel deserves an Emmy for this. His performance has a touch of Tony Soprano, and I love it!
    5900
  448. The whole ‘women can’t be vulnerable or weak or villains or struggle and men have to be torn down’ is beyond old already. How more people don’t see this and deem it unacceptable is beyond me. This isn’t some complicated story structure methodology we’re talking about here, it’s surface level basics.
    5900
  449. I think the strangest part to me is that they're aware they're alienating their audience. Within the first 5 minutes of the ceremony Regina King said, "Now, I know that a lot of you people at home wanna reach for your remote when you feel like Hollywood is preaching to you, but..."   But as it turns out, people didn't reach for the remote Sunday night because millions of people already chose not to watch it.
    5800
  450. The Critical Bond: Time To Go Away Now
    5800
  451. "There's a very good reason people watch anime and read manga. It's not made by people like you." Nailed it, Drinker.
    5800
  452. The high evolutionary is all Kang should have been
    5800
  453. This film has: A terrifying, cold, menacing and a badass villain; Villain that is redeemable. A straight up heartless monster that is irredeemable, yet entertaining to watch. Eat your heart out, Disney
    5800
  454. Blake Lively getting offended for getting asked about her weight cause she was fat and her costar had a recent back injury and didn’t know if he could lift her is peak Hollywood problems
    5800
  455. Into exile, she must go. Failed, she has.
    5700
  456. This scene is perfect Drinker. You just have to watch the director's cut to fully get it
    5700
  457. This movie if it came out today would send the activist media running for their safe spaces.
    5700
  458. People think they're buying a fandom when they purchase an IP. They often forget that the fandom comes with expectations.
    5700
  459. If they listened to fans they would get proper results like Paramount had with Sonic. But I guess majority of the executives are living on a different planet
    5700
  460. The "you've gotta do better, senator" clip is unintentionally hilarious every time.
    5700
  461. It speaks volumes when an angry drunk has more sense than paid professionals at Disney
    5600
  462. soon we're gonna have 1 billion dollar budget flops
    5600
  463. Congratulations, Amazon. You just gave The Acolyte competition for worst show of 2024
    5600
  464. I mean she could have just tuned the guitar to drop D then she'd only need one finger to play some sick power chords
    5600
  465. The director already told to many of us: don’t watch it. Well that is exactly what I am going to do, not watch it.
    5600
  466. The fact that this trilogy wasn’t rated R…unforgivable.
    5600
  467. Asking for a strong female character to have an arc is like asking a modern feminist to be nice to men.
    5600
  468. You know it’s a Disney product when they’re not afraid to add a wet shirtless guy as a thirst trap; but simultaneously decide that Leia in a bikini is problematic.
    5600
  469. Makes sense. I mean, why fight Kylo Ren when you can just lecture him about identity politics until he kills himself?
    5600
  470. the downvoters didn't understand the underlying themes and allegorical representations within this video
    5500
  471. Nothing says “out of touch” like making movies for women, and then getting mad at men for not being interested in them.
    5500
  472. So the original was a critique of what society is becoming, while the remake panders to it.
    5500
  473. Even a bad Nolan film is an epic compared to most critically acclaimed films by today's standards.
    5500
  474. Our theater was FILLED. And people were hanging in the lobby just talking afterwards. People clapped and cheered at points in the film. Its been a LONGGGG time since Ive had a cinema experience like that. So it was a blast for me.
    5500
  475. "Captain America doesn't represent America." THEN GIVE BACK THE SHIELD!!
    5500
  476. Given how many woke movies have flopped in 2022, I would say this is the best Hollywood year of the century so far.
    5500
  477. Could have been worse is the highest acclaim a modern comic book movie can ask for
    5500
  478. Remember, you guys are the real heros. *Sips milk
    5500
  479. That 'Power of Many' scene gave me war flashbacks. Had forgotten about that show
    5400
  480. “So I was lying face-down in my local duck pond...” Best intro ever.
    5400
  481. Writers: "We need to make Tomb Raider appealing to girls." Girls who already liked Tomb Raider: "This show is lame and gay."
    5400
  482. the power of one......season
    5400
  483. The MCU is turning in to a parody of itself
    5400
  484. thing i hate the most about the marvel films with loki and thor is that their asgaudian ability such as super strength and endurance seem to come and go depending on the plot
    5400
  485. I love the part when the studio said, "Hey everyone! Go see Joker 2: Folie a Doodoo! It physically hates you and destroys everything the original stood for, but give us money anyway!". And then everyone stayed home, let the movie dry up in theaters, and then the studio got mad that nobody watched it. Truly an experience of a lifetime
    5300
  486. I think the only thing that can stop The Critical Drinker hitting one million subs is liver failure.
    5300
  487. They said they were going to be loyal to the game (TLOU2). That should tell you everything.
    5300
  488. "There's literally nowhere left to go that hasn't been infiltrated by political propaganda" Agree 100%
    5300
  489. “What inspired you to make the hobbit a trilogy instead of a stand alone film?” Warner brothers: “money.”
    5300
  490. This movie does not help the stereotype that women aren't funny.
    5300
  491. “I am marvel Jesus” Is already funnier than anything from She-Hulk
    5300
  492. Single moms with a daily wine habit hoping to look "cool" in front of the kid's friends just to be told, "nobody watches that stuff anymore, mom!"
    5300
  493. Didn't even realize it was happening. Watch The Oscars? NO. Watch Critical Drinker? HELL YES.
    5300
  494. This is why I respect the creators of Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul because at the end both the actors and the writers/producers thanked their fans for sticking with them for so long. When you create good product people will generally praise it, who would've thought?
    5300
  495. Im pretty sure nobody knew the oscars were even on. This is literally how i found out.
    5300
  496. God forbid a fan be a, you know… fan.
    5300
  497. "I blame myself" "so do I" - it seems like an important part of the characters is to have distinctive enough personalities that even though they're saying the same thing it has very different connotations
    5300
  498. $300 million budget? What did they spend all that money on? Making the dwarves as hideous as humanly possible?
    5300
  499. "Evil cannot create anything new, they can only corrupt and ruin what good forces have invented or made." - J.R.R Tolkien
    5200
  500. "Strong female dragon" "Strong female diverse character" Hilarious😂
    5200
  501. Meanwhile LA kicks homeless people out of the area so actors don't feel uncomfortable.
    5200
  502. Isn’t Loki, first and foremost, a Trickster god? That should automatically mean he’s clever, not confused and fumbling—unless it’s an act that’s part of a confidence trick.
    5200
  503. Two hits in a row for Tom Cruise. This is what happens when you care about audiences
    5200
  504. I stopped watching immediately after the line about “there’s white people everywhere”. I’m sick of racial obsession on tv. Just make a show without political obsession
    5200
  505. I left the theater shocked. It’d been a while since seeing a movie that was just FUN. The cameos went over my 40 something head, but my son recognized them all. It’s amazing what Hollywood could still do if they decided to entertain us instead of preach at us.
    5200
  506. The Venom films really should have a more mature age rating to fit the character and stories they want to tell. It could really improve their quality.
    5200
  507. Hollywood can’t not attack the fans
    5200
  508. Wow, I had no idea the oscars even happened until I saw the notification for this video.
    5200
  509. Space Western done right, take notes Disney
    5200
  510. And the crowd went mild.
    5100
  511. 'Nothing can threaten her' is completely right. This film featured so many fight scenes where the villains aren't a threat to our heroes. They brandished very powerful high tech weapons that were all set to "stun". I've seen characters in more danger in a Scooby-Doo cartoon.
    5100
  512. The thing that killed Star Trek was the death of the positivity. It was twisted toward the dark and multiple shades of grey. Go back to the og or generations and there was a feeling of hope. A golden age future.
    5100
  513. I would literally rather watch my own colonoscopy than the Oscars.
    5100
  514. "Why did you make me rewrite the final Act of this screenplay?" "Because you let me."
    5100
  515. Maybe the real Acolyte is the braincells we lost along the way
    5100
  516. Darth Vader : "Sister, so you have a twin sister. Your feelings have now betrayed her too. Obi-wan was wise to hide her from me. Now his failure is complete. If you will not turn to the Dark side then perhaps she will." Luke : let's his rage take over - This is why Vader is the most legendary bad@ss villain in cinematic history, even in defeat he wins.
    5100
  517. Rise of Skywalker: "Somehow Palpatine returned." Acolyte: Some Sith survived, but let's not tell master Yoda.
    5100
  518. Dom doesn’t need Drinker to like this movie, he has family.
    5100
  519. Disney is so confident on its new Star Wars canon, they're about to cancel it and recanonize the Expanded Universe.
    5100
  520. Since Disney bought SW, I went from anxious trepidation, to hesitant optimism, to disappointing betrayal, and finally, apathetic indifference.
    5100
  521. The infected didn’t really seem to be that big of a problem for Joel and Elle to deal with.
    5100
  522. It's especially silly since: 1. Female Imperial guard (and Eldar) have always been a thing. 2. Sisters of Battle
    5100
  523. i honestly liked the fist season more.
    5100
  524. Tolkien said it best: "Evil can't create, it can only corrupt"
    5000
  525. Sony will NEVER fully give up the rights to Spider-Man, it’s hilarious how they tell Marvel Studios/Disney “we’ll let you borrow him from time to time, but he’s ours”
    5000
  526. Does anyone remember the good old days when female characters actually struggled and weren’t perfect Mary Sues who were given everything based on their gender, race, or sexuality
    5000
  527. Such a shame Keatons Batman was wasted on this and Flash. He should have been given a Batman Beyond movie as a finale to the Burton universe. Every Hollywood studio seems to be so out of touch now, no understanding of their franchises or characters. Or audience for that matter.
    5000
  528. The way that cheeseburger was made in the movie made me want to eat a cheeseburger lol
    5000
  529. The fact that she failed to kill someone by shooting them at point blank range in the face, fits this show perfectly.
    5000
  530. The whole motto was “you can’t save the world alone”. Then Superman proceeds to save the world, alone
    5000
  531. There will only ever be 3 Indiana Jones movies. It's that simple.
    5000
  532. It started out as Doctor Who, and it will end up as "Doctor... who?"
    5000
  533. "A good novel tells us the truth about its hero; but a bad novel tells us the truth about its author." - Gilbert K. Chesterton
    5000
  534. THIS is what Hollywood should be spending $200 million on. Not Thor Love and Thunder or Quantumania
    5000
  535. Rachel Ziegler: She's not gonna be saved by the prince Bo Burnham: Because Prince Charming would never settle for you!
    5000
  536. i really hope they don't give Toby the Luke Skywalker treatment
    5000
  537. Welp, I thought I would never say this, but well done Disney. Andor was not a money grab, it was a work of passion, you can tell that time and care was taken when creating this show, and everyone did their part. We need more people like that, people who actually care about what they are doing.👍
    4900
  538. I am 48 now and when I was watching this old Star Trek movie - as a kid - I was much more moved by the way the characters dealt with things. Nowadays it's just screaming. Literally everywhere. Even on the Social Media... I wonder why..?
    4900
  539. This show is honestly such a breath of fresh air in the SciFi world!
    4900
  540. A role that requires you to suck, and you exceed expectations.
    4900
  541. It always nice to see that i lived old enough to see every franchise i love burn into flames.
    4900
  542. I commend you, Drinker, for watching so I don't have to. Such a sacrifice doesn't go unnoticed. Cheers.
    4900
  543. Best line in the movie McGregor: "Our own little octagon." Gyllenhaal: "Who taught you shapes?"
    4900
  544. Ariel killing Ursula herself not only undoes the "she saved him and then he saved her" narrative; it also completely cancels Eric's agenda. By killing King Triton's arch-enemy he proved to him that humans are not actually bad but can be capable, good-hearted people. That's why he relents, allows his daughter to marry him, and in the final scene forms a rainbow with his trident to show that the human world and the sea world are now one. So, Ariel being "a brave woman who does not need a man to rescue her" is completely beside the point. 🙄
    4900
  545. Drinker reviews are the closest I will get to watching a superhero movie these days
    4900
  546. See, we aren't against strong female characters with bad haircuts. We just want good stories. Can't wait to watch this. Thank you for the review, Drinker.
    4900
  547. Man, DC really trying to destroy Agatha All Along, even though no one was watching it anyway.
    4800
  548. As someone with dark skin I’m sick of the forced inclusion. This whole diversity push has done nothing but produce bad products. True diversity can only be attained through original ideas. You think as a kid I was bummed out that John Mclane was a white guy. Regardless of his skin tone I still strived to be the guy that did right thing even if I didn’t have too. We didn’t think in those terms back then. Also we have had diversity in movies for a long time now, and honestly it was done better when it wasn’t forced. We need to lay off the diversity and get back to making good movies. 10-20 years ago we had both diversity and good movies, you can’t even make a list there are so many….Let’s just go back to that pleez.
    4800
  549. The ending of this season was the epitome of “ That’s all I’ve got for you today, go away now “ by Netflix.
    4800
  550. The witches in a trance all dropping over dead at once when their connection was broken was hilarious.
    4800
  551. Rachel Zelger: Snow White is not gonna be saved by the Prince. The Prince: Good. Because I'm here for your stepmother.
    4800
  552. If there's such a thing as a "good" clickbait, this is one of em.
    4800
  553. i don't even watch Doctor Who and I feel sad for long time fans....
    4800
  554. I hate how people see the film as fat phobia. It's not about finding Charlie disgusting. It's about finding sympathy for what he has physically become and finding the drive to cheer for his last shot at redemption.
    4700
  555. Galadriel: "There's an imposter among us!" Sauron with blonde wig and elf ears: "I dunno. Galadriel is kinda sus."
    4700
  556. Hollywood plan is working: Make something so terrible that subsequent movies that are just awful would look good in comparison.
    4700
  557. Even Mark Hamill himself said he hated this version of Luke Skywalker.
    4700
  558. I'm more entertained by Disney's self-destruction than the actual garbage that they are putting out there.
    4700
  559. And the crowd goes mild.
    4700
  560. Easily the most unrealistic part of the movie was how pristine that Walmart looked
    4700
  561. April Fools
    4700
  562. Making K NOT the "Chosen One" was subverting expectations, but done the right way.
    4700
  563. "If your antagonist starts out weaker than the hero, then what the fuck is there left to strive against?" - Possibly the most succinctly perfect and true statement about the problem I've ever heard. There are so many aspects to strength, and these days villains seem to have incredible weaknesses written into them.
    4700
  564. It’s a dumb fun movie. Want something more complex? Minus One. Don’t? This film. Like both? Great to be a Godzilla fan.
    4700
  565. This is proof that not every movie with a hellish production turns out bad.
    4700
  566. The film we don't need, but the film we also don't deserve.
    4600
  567. You either die a hero, or live long enough to see The Critical Drinker review 10 of these movies.
    4600
  568. You know what, I think we really need more action films like Extraction and John Wick directed by stunt choreographers turned directors like Chad Stahelski and Sam Hargrave❤
    4600
  569. The daughter was supposed to come off as a “strong independent woman” type. Instead she came off as a “selfish idiot that gets people killed” type.
    4600
  570. I can never get past Holdo's outfit. Is that really an Admiral's uniform? She looks like she's dressed for a gala opening at an art exhibit. Just needs a glass of red wine.
    4600
  571. I had forgotten the Oscars were even happening. No buzz on social media or the press about it happening. It’s like nobody cared they were even a thing
    4600
  572. Disney: Star Wars fans are too toxic Also Disney: Why are we losing money?
    4600
  573. This takes me back to the introduction to X-Men Origins: Wolverine. That montage of Wolverine and Sabertooth fighting their way through a century of war was the movie we all wanted to see and they blew it.
    4600
  574. It really became sad when superheros stopped representing timeless messages and became vessels for current issues. It cuts their longevity and how people look back on them, I don't think many of the later superhero films will age that gracefully.
    4600
  575. Fallout NV fans right now You've gotten a lot farther than you should have, Your ride's over, mutie.
    4600
  576. In a recent interview, Hugh basically said he saw it as a buddy film, a straight man and funny man film. It seems Hugh and Ryan are genuinely friends.
    4500
  577. Love how they're still using the "geeks are unpopular and bullied all the time" idea, despite it not being accurate since the MCU has been around. When I was a kid in the 80s, geeks who liked scifi, books and comics WERE ridiculed and bullied. Now? Over 90% of the world is a self-proclaimed geek who is in to superheroes, scifi, comics etc. They're honestly trying to push the idea that a girl would be an outcast for being a fan of real world superheroes? Also, every scene in this trailer shows her with her crowd of friends. Again, back in the 80s I had ONE friend who was in to the same sort of geeky stuff as nerds like me were social outcasts. The mere fact that she is constantly surrounded by her mates shows how easy these poor little geeks have it these days.
    4500
  578. That naked Thor scene is such a blatant double standard that I wouldn’t watch the movie for that reason only. The level of hypocrisy there is just sickening.
    4500
  579. One troll. They had ONE TROLL! Not a tribe of trolls. Not a legion of trolls, not even a family of trolls. O. N. E. T. R. O. L. L.!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A single, solitary, lonely, solo, by itself troll is useless against a city and it's walls!!!!!!
    4500
  580. "A Brave New Disaster" perfect title for most of the Marvel's projects nowadays
    4500
  581. If you’re trying to tell a story about how revenge and murder are dehumanizing, maybe don’t force the player to wade through an ocean of bodies and blood only to suddenly forgive the final boss
    4500
  582. His only mistake was to save Abby's life.
    4500
  583. You deserve a place on the Guinness book of records for the longest unbroken stream of deeply satisfying sarcasm tirade. Wow
    4500
  584. The media said “cuties” which exploited children was “harmless” but “don’t go watch this conspiracy theory movie”.
    4500
  585. Not gonna lie. I laughed when Karli died. All I could think was: "The monologues, they're finally over!"
    4400
  586. My favourite part about the kingsmen is how over the top the plot is. Reminding me of a classic bond film with an over the top megalomaniac with a convoluted plan to end the world and being stopped by a gentleman spy
    4400
  587. I'm glad you were able to enjoy this movie. I appreciate that even though you were expecting the movie to be bad, you still have the integrity to admit it was pretty decent. Not a lot of movie critics will do that, because they think they have to stick to their original opinion. But I trust your reviews precisely because you're honest.
    4400
  588. I shall call you drinker. Because you drink.
    4400
  589. This movie actually brought more people together to complain about Marvel and it got plenty of YouTubers paid from the tons of content. Brava Marvels! The gift that keeps on giving.
    4400
  590. Seeing Deadpool make fun of the MCU was the most satisfying thing seen in a Marvel movie in years.
    4400
  591. Michelle Yeoh is an absolute legend, she was doing death defying stunts in Jackie Chan movies, long before any of these modern ''strong female action heroes'', who need 4 stunt doubles, appeared.
    4400
  592. The Night Knight legit died like a random villain-of-the-week from the old Buffy tv show.
    4400
  593. If the John Wick series and David Leitch’s films have taught us anything, it’s that no one understands the action genre like stuntmen.
    4400
  594. if I have to be honest, I think that The Drinker Recommends is the best part of your channel, you actually recommend us something to watch instead of giving us reasons not to watch others. And i can tell that you actually enjoy more making this videos instead of shitting all day about modern Hollywood. Keep on Drinker, you are doing great!!!
    4400
  595. I liked it, alot.
    4400
  596. And the worst is how medias are trying to sell it as an absolute masterpiece, deserving of every rewards the industry has right now.
    4400
  597. Wow. It's almost like we like seeing our heroes be heroic and not subverted. Who would have guessed 🤔?
    4400
  598. Man I swear Henry Cavill is cursed.
    4400
  599. Wasn't the entire third act of Strange's debut film about him willingly putting himself in a neverending death loop all for the sake of protecting reality from an eldritch god? That seems like the exact opposite of everything Wanda's been doing post-Endgame.
    4300
  600. "Netflix movie" may be a new phrase but the concept has been around since the 90s. We used to call them "Direct to video".
    4300
  601. Can you imagine having had the foresight to watch the first episode of South Park decades ago and think "Yeah... these guys are going to be the cultural genuises of our time" Brilliant as always.
    4300
  602. Rest In Peace Gunnery Sergeant R. Lee Ermey.
    4300
  603. Thank you for your sacrifice in watching this so we don’t have to.
    4300
  604. I loved the part where Ariel said ‘Go away now’. Truly inspiring.
    4300
  605. This movie is much more disrespectful than most money grabs. Brandon Lee died making the Original
    4300
  606. "Law and order: Social Justice Unit" Please don't go giving Hollywood any ideas.
    4300
  607. This is absolutely bang on. Social media has caused their downfall. Never has the phrase "familiarity breeds contempt" been more appropriate with celebrities. The best celebs that are still the most admired are the ones that stay away from social media.
    4300
  608. Last night it became clear: The Oscars exists for forty year old alcoholic woman living in California...and nobody else.
    4300
  609. Pennywise wouldnt survive in a mw2 lobby
    4300
  610. Oh the Eighties. When movies were free from Soy
    4300
  611. “Why can’t more shows be like this?”, the drinker asks. The answer may well be in his preamble. He literally took years to come around to countless recommendations to watch The Expanse, worried that he would be wasting his time on an unknown franchise. However, he will religiously watch every instalment of ever diminishing mega franchises, vainly hoping they will rekindle a spark of the lost magic they once had. We are all guilty of this, drawn to the safety of known brands and less willing to take chances with our time and money on “risky” unknowns. If we, as customers, are not willing to take risks on something different, why, then would the studios take even bigger risks producing it? It is worth noting that, while a critical success for its original network, The Expanse was to be cancelled for financial reasons 2 seasons ago. It is only because Amazons Bezos was a fan of the series that it got resurrected on Prime.
    4300
  612. Blake Lively is basically Amber Heard 2.0
    4300
  613. Imagine back in 2008 if someone had tried to tell you that Indiana Jones 4 would not be the worse edition in the franchise.
    4200
  614. To be fair, the story about you being in a Ukrainian jail cell having a deep conversation with a 300 lb ex soldier named Yuri about how the mailboxes in Kyiv were telling him to hurt people sounds more interesting than anything we got in the last 10 years.
    4200
  615. It's funny how this show is supposed to be about a group that hunts down and kills Supes, yet I think Soldier Boy alone has killed more in a single season than Butcher has throughout the entire show.
    4200
  616. watches log of what happened to the previous crew Miller: We're leaving. My favorite sensible reaction in a horror film.
    4200
  617. "Some MF'ers are always trying to ice skate uphill." Blade called the state of the MCU out before it even existed. Truly a visionary. And that line always goes hard.
    4200
  618. Michael Douglas finest performance. Really overlooked role by him
    4200
  619. “You need to do better, Marvel.”
    4200
  620. “When Melissa McCarthy is the best thing in your movie, you know you’ve got problems.“ That just about says it all. Thank you Drinker
    4200
  621. I started reading LOTR when I was a child, it’s been some 20 years since. I am Mexican so needless to say, I am not white, but never, not even once I thought, “why aren’t there any brown skinned elves?” In a world where there are dwarves, elves, tree people, orcs, huge impossible towers, and magic I think it takes a sick mind to see the halls of Khazad-dûm, and think “hey, why aren’t any of these dwarves black?” The world Tolkien created more than 80 years ago has endured the current of time like no other, it was influential like no other and it is close to so many peoples’ hearts that it’s no wonder everyone is taking it so seriously. We as fans of Tolkiens work, had this niche away from The Message that stood strong like the White Tower of Echtelion from the forces of Mordor, but unlike in that story, in our story nothing can escape the darkness
    4200
  622. A proper masculine & bromance story that Hollywood are incapable of making these days. Loved how Bheem represented water and Raju represented fire. The cinematography and soundtrack were top notch too.
    4200
  623. "Gallipoli was nothing compared to the insane efforts of Postman Pats brothers and sisters!" Get a grip, Netflix
    4200
  624. The Power of One The Power of Two The Power of Too Many Failures
    4200
  625. The literal face reveal of the High Evolutionary felt so jarring, and absolutely horrified the children in the theater I was in lmao
    4100
  626. Gotta love how Steve Rogers possibly being a virgin is some kind of attack on his character to these writers. Dude was too busy literally saving the planet multiple times to be caught up in that shit. He had priorities, a duty to his nation and the world.
    4100
  627. Wanda went full Abby in this movie. She straight up asks Reed Richards, "Is your wife still alive?" "Yes, she is." "Good. Then your children will have someone to raise them." Then she violently murders the guy. Am I, at any point forward, supposed to feel any sort of empathy for her? That's so fucking dark.
    4100
  628. My biggest issue with the movie was the “Believe in yourself” ending and then trying to make it seem like whatever Wanda did wasn’t that bad and she “fixed it” in the end. She legit murdered several people in this movie. For no reason.
    4100
  629. The lighthouse still has a more coherent plot than any disney star wars
    4100
  630. The biggest problem was having Jesse Plemons for ONE. SINGLE. SCENE
    4100
  631. It's hilarious how Hollywood's supposed writers think that a woman that has no emotions, inevitably comes across as a masculine and dangerous girl-boss. While everyone watching it simply sees her as a regular woman with severe emotional baggage and a not-so-happy childhood.
    4000
  632. The fact they didn't say, "Is this some kind of Road House" is the biggest dissapointment of the entire year
    4000
  633. Imagine if Finn was actually a badass soldier. Who became disillusioned with all the killing.
    4000
  634. If Prometheus was the franchise killer, Covenant pooped on its corpse.
    4000
  635. So Kevin Smith was hired to rewrite the script. He recommend Tim Burton as the director. Then Tim Burton had Kevin fired 😂
    4000
  636. If DreamWorks continues with this trend, they will overtake Pixar by a lightyear
    4000
  637. The concept to Prey is actually pretty cool, I'm just too jaded to think anyone will do anything but screw it up.
    4000
  638. As someone who's worked both in the kitchen and as a waiter at a restaurant, this movie gave me PTSD. Great movie
    4000
  639. Both Maye and Osha are flippant, gullible traitors who switch sides based on their own selfish needs. The most unlikeable "protagonists" ever.
    4000
  640. Saying themes are more important than plot, structure, and character development is like saying the steak was shit but the sauce was good.
    4000
  641. Bro Snow white has been the most entertainent i got from Disney in the last couple of years and the damn movie is not even out yet! Its amazing.
    4000
  642. With Christopher's passing, there is no longer anyone to protect Tolkien's legacy from being butchered
    4000
  643. The Room is a slow-paced psychological thriller that deals with the following themes: a relationship breaking down. Betrayal by a significant other. The loss of mutual friends. Grief and sadness. Escape from a toxic relationship, and moving on. And it ends in a powerful twist ending that you rarely see in mainstream movies. Clearly The Room is a 10/10 masterpiece.
    3900
  644. Only in DEI fantasy-land could Gal Gadot be jealous of Rachel Zegler's looks 🤣.
    3900
  645. "Oppenheimer" - A film about what we thought would destroy society "Barbie" - A film about what actually destroyed society
    3900
  646. And Blue elephant kid grows up to be a drummer in a cantina band...
    3900
  647. "Gorge" is the Drinker's nickname for Tatiana.
    3900
  648. I still find it funny that Captain Boomerang was more useful in this movie’s first 5 minutes than he was in the entirety of the last Suicide Squad movie.
    3900
  649. Nathan was born for this role, but every actor was amazing in their roles, I miss this show.
    3900
  650. I love the use of the “You Serious?” meme for a movie JK Simmons is also in 😂
    3900
  651. "Let the Acolyte die... Kill it if you have to..." - Smylo Ren probably
    3900
  652. Caesar was the heart and soul of this franchise
    3900
  653. Turns out, starring in the Acolyte would make you age like if you went through WW2
    3900
  654. "Body positive Space Cops" - sounds like Rich Evans!
    3900
  655. Even with this movie’s flaws, seeing Michael Keaton play Beetlejuice again is a treat to watch.
    3900
  656. I didn’t even realize that the OG cast had started shilling for ROP and Amazon… now that’s just pitiful. Just goes to show how much of a bubble Hollywood and entertainment is, when you are willing to defend a show and giant corporation that actively trashes your own precious years of acting and hard work. Your definitely the resistance, guys.
    3900
  657. Some times, you need the monsters to be...... monsters. Thx for the review.
    3900
  658. It really feels like Jake Gyllenhaal always gives 100% in movies, no matter the budget. A true Professional.
    3900
  659. Definitely wasn’t expecting this video
    3900
  660. Good or bad, I’m glad to see him make a very clear passion project, outside of a very corrupt Hollywood system. It’s great to see someone take such a big risk, and I hope it inspires more people to take big, new risks.
    3900
  661. The fact that comments on the trailer get turned into a song is wild.
    3900
  662. My grandmother told me, I don't care what J.R.R. Tolkien wrote in his books, Galadriel was always simping for Sauron.
    3900
  663. The acolyte has a budget of $180M. The budget for the original trilogy, adjusted for inflation for 1983-2024 is around $193M in TOTAL. Let that sink in for a second.
    3800
  664. My sister asked me, "Did you see Will slap Chris during the Oscars?" And I was like, "... the Oscars was on?"
    3800
  665. She had the audacity to be a strong and independent woman.
    3800
  666. This review is gold!! I compared this season to the many side stories in the first 2 seasons of The Mandalorian. It's just a really drawn out side quest for Din Djarin. The Mandalorian season 2.5 really.
    3800
  667. I refuse to believe that Wilson Fisk - a man who learned Mandarin and Japanese in secret just to know what his business associates were saying - opted to not learn ASL for someone he essentially views as a daughter.
    3800
  668. I’m surprised the producers didn’t de-age Tobin Bell by putting a backwards baseball cap on him 🧢
    3800
  669. When I found out the writers had Galadriel and Elrond kiss each other full on the mouth, I was physically ill. Did they not know that she is his mother-in-law?!
    3800
  670. Real talk: Karl Urban is highly underrated as an actor.
    3800
  671. Lance is way too talented for this shit show. If Netflix was even remotely smart or self aware, they'd pull this and pretend it never happened. This public embarrassment is a perfect example of why Netflix is losing money and otherwise failing to produce any kind of content worth paying a sub for.
    3800
  672. The reason this movie flopped when it first came out was because it wasn't originally intended to be a Christmas movie and the Christmas elements are just incidental. It wasn't even released around Christmas. It did so poorly that no one bothered to keep up the copyright and it went into the public domain fairly quickly. After that a lot of TV stations started playing it around Christmas and that's why it became a Christmas classic. It's kind of funny how the movie follows the same trajectory as its main character. At first it gets a raw deal but then it gets a last-minute save.
    3800
  673. After thousands of years, the Night King...accomplishes nothing. The end.
    3800
  674. Funny how Disney keep firing their Death Star at their own shows.
    3800
  675. I’ve been waiting to hear the Drinker’s take on Squid Game.
    3800
  676. Straight, normal, kinda "old-fashioned" action movie, that respects its audience and past installments is a box-office success ? Who would've thought that...
    3800
  677. Oscars are dead and refuse to accept it...
    3800
  678. Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. -George Orwell 1984
    3800
  679. They weren’t kidding when they said everyone would hate Oswald by the end of the show, people are praying Batman preforms a 45 hit Arkham combo on him in the next movie.
    3800
  680. Thank goodness the Drinker reviewed this, it needs to be seen by more people. Such a shame it wasn’t advertised
    3800
  681. Disney stood on the shoulders of geniuses to accomplish something as fast as they could and before they even knew what they had, they patented it, and packaged it, and put it on a plastic lunchbox and now they're selling it BANG, they're trying to sell.
    3800
  682. I have four kids ages 10-16. The two oldest LOVED Star Wars. Watched every original movie and all of the animated shows. They dressed up for the theatrical release of Force Awakens. We watched it 4 times in theaters. We watched The Last Jedi on release night. I wanted to walk out. They hated it. We never watched that movie again and haven’t seen Rise of Skywalker to date. Today they couldn’t give less of a shite about Star Wars. And my two youngest couldn’t name a single character from the franchise. That’s what Disney did.
    3700
  683. It's funny how WB didn't want to use Zack's design of Steppenwolf cause he was too "scary" when he ended up making us all feel sympathy for him with those puppy eyes, lol.
    3700
  684. The showrunners described it as "Guardians of the Galaxy on steroids." How come you can't just make Star Trek on Star Trek?
    3700
  685. My favourite fight is when yoda takes out a baby-sized lightsaber and fights count dracula in a termite nest by jumping on the walls like a crack addict while nosferatu struggles with back pains because he cant reach the little green smurf
    3700
  686. Instead of re-examining her attitude, Rachel is already preparing her media narrative as a survivor of cyber bullying and will go on talk shows that allow her to explore her victimhood.
    3700
  687. It was great watching Hemsworth kicking ass in a role he was made for. Watching the emasculation of Thor was something I’d just as soon completely forget and this definitely helped.
    3700
  688. Wonder Woman is still better then Captain Marvel
    3700
  689. When I was in my late 20s I realised that just because a film/ TV show has the same name as another film / TV show, plus a "2" and a subtitle, that doesn't mean it is a legitimate sequal. Rings of Power is not canon. Nor is any "Star Wars" product that Disney has made.
    3700
  690. Speaking of The Incredible Hulks opening weekend: $55M in 2008 is worth $78.6M in 2023
    3700
  691. Jurassic World: we were forced to engineer weird hybrids, NO ONE was coming to see the real thing anymore cut to shot of heavily populated crowds of people enjoying the park
    3700
  692. This is the show Gotham wanted to be
    3700
  693. Even if the film isn't that good, at least Zack gets his true vision for the film
    3700
  694. Not gonna lie, I was enjoying the heck out of this show until the end. Because you can’t have a show where there is a single superhero with his own powers and story. We need to add in that his love interest has powers that she never earns or struggles to control. We have to add in a massive Kaiju battle, that takes everything out of the story. We watch Mark and Steven struggle to control the Moon Knight and find balance with each other for 5 to 6 episodes basically. But then his girlfriend can just temporarily make a deal to get generic Falcon wings and say, “Yes, I am a female Egyptian superhero” (insert Event Horizon screaming)
    3700
  695. It's poetic that the end of the remake is, literally, the reason why the original is thought-provoking in the first place.
    3700
  696. The whole boss girl era saved me a lot of money on movie / TV show purchases
    3700
  697. Oh yes indeed I did loose my mind over this astronomical piece of crap of a battle episode. EVERYTHING was astounding stupid nonsense. It took me over 3 HOURS to go through everything in this episode on Knights Watch 0.o Lol, cheers for the mention mate!
    3700
  698. "One of the problems with strong, independent women is that they're strong and independent." Disney is exposing its hypocrisy by showing that in fact, they prefer vocal, opinionated women that they control completely.
    3700
  699. These days, "Not going to win any Oscars," is more of an endorsement than anything.
    3700
  700. Chris Rock kept smiling because Will just gave him and his comedian friends years of material to work with
    3700
  701. Remember when Tyrion told three different plots to three different people in order to keep them guessing and figure out who he could trust? Yeah, I miss that Tyrion, too.
    3700
  702. I expected this video, and the Drinker never disappoints
    3600
  703. As a Marine vet of Iraq and Afghanistan, I'd like to nominate the crater stabbing scene as the best scene in a war film ever.
    3600
  704. - What is your superpower again? - I'm drunk. Drinker is our capeless superhero.
    3600
  705. Is this a documentary of what happens after Drinker goes on a binge and wakes up 28 years later?
    3600
  706. If your alien civilization has the ability to travel between stars and do so in only a matter of years, you by necessity also have the energy needed to fry the Earth's surface, either with a big laser or some kind of relativistic kinetic weapon (in fact, they could literally just dump their garbage in the Earth's direction while flying past it at near light speed and it would have the same effect as setting off all of Earth's nuclear arsenal simultaneously, except without the radioactive fallout). If all the aliens wanted was the Earth's core, there was no reason they had to invade when they could have simply sterilized the Earth from space, then they could just scoop out the core at their leisure without any resistance.
    3600
  707. A timeless blockbuster for me. The sequel however never should have been made
    3600
  708. Drinker recommends? Damn that’s a rarity these days.
    3600
  709. This was just an excuse to talk about crimson tide wasn't it.
    3600
  710. This movie looks soulless
    3600
  711. Alien: Isolation was the true sequel to Alien & Aliens.
    3600
  712. Making the villain lead character actually villainous also serves to make the hero more heroic. This show makes Batman truly look like a beacon of hope to an otherwise dark and twisted Gotham.
    3600
  713. I guess Glen Powell is the secret sauce for having a successful Legacy Sequel Blockbuster
    3600
  714. Lucas: Here's my Golden Goose Disney: Thanks! *Chops off Goose's head* Disney: Lay Eggs Damn It!
    3600
  715. One of the most interesting aspects of the LOTR movies was the distinctions in cultures. Elves, Humans, Dwarves and even hobbits all had a different look to them. Having Galadriel with braided hair and Elrond with short hair doesn’t help with that continuity. Their hair is the biggest indicator into knowing who is an elf and human. If it wasn’t labeled who this character was, I would think she was just a human in armor.
    3600
  716. They made us care about human characters in a monster movie. That's a feat in of itself! This movie 100% delivers. Even though Godzilla is actually much smaller, he is considerably more fearsome. That heat ray gave me chills!
    3600
  717. Zach Snyder cured me of my depression by giving me PTSD with this film
    3600
  718. The show ended with Capaldi. There was no regeneration - the Doctor went to his final rest. The current show isn't canon.
    3500
  719. The one time we don't want them to stay accurate to the source material is the one time they're salivating at the chance to do so.
    3500
  720. Terminator VI: Social Judgement Day
    3500
  721. I can't wait til they remake it with 3 brave fisherwomen whose husbands stay on shore to look after the kids
    3500
  722. ‘You know I’m something of an alcoholic myself’ - William Dafoe, the Lighthouse
    3500
  723. I'm not convinced this movie wasn't just an algorithm implanted in my brain.
    3500
  724. "You're not gonna shoot a puppy, are you, Jack?" "Yeah, in the face, why?" We just gotta love how much of a bastard Jack Horner is.
    3500
  725. How dare Toxic Fans demand checks notes a director’s vision for a movie.
    3500
  726. Literally a sidekick in his own show.
    3500
  727. Disobedient Canine - formerly known as “Naughty Dog.”
    3500
  728. JJ is a fraud. Ripped this film from previous better film, then did it again with Star wars EP7 blatantly. And he's still getting work...
    3500
  729. Zegler and Gal Gadot walking on stage together looked like a grown woman and an awkward prepubescent girl walking on stage. They aren't even playing the same sport when it comes to comparing them.
    3500
  730. JK Simmons is absolutely terrifying in this film. He embodied a power hungry and ruthless teacher perfectly.
    3500
  731. The best version of Thor was Infinity War, he was serious, focused and had a goal of avenging others and taking down a serious threat in Thanos! Now .... Well hes been reduced to laughing stock!
    3500
  732. Interesting that this show doesn't pander to modern politics, but makes fun of them! Good job
    3500
  733. Henry needs to fire his agent
    3500
  734. "Dany had 15000 unsullied left, after she started with 8000 and 35000 died" -Anon
    3500
  735. They only got one thing right. This train wreck gave me the incentive to go watch the original again.
    3500
  736. The remake is a clear evidence that Hollywood lacks BALLS. The point of the original movie is to delve into the importance of MASCULINITY...something today's Hollywood regards as "toxic". They just had to change the ending and make the wife look like the HERO. If the agenda isn't clear enough to you...
    3500
  737. I watch these videos because they are both better written and more entertaining than most movies made today.
    3500
  738. Henry Cavill got done dirty
    3500
  739. To be fair, Willam Dafoe has ALWAYS looked like a 500 years old vampire.
    3500
  740. Wish we could get a Star Wars film like this, a flawed but sincere movie for the fans
    3500
  741. The "drinker recommends" has quickly become a seal of quality we can trust.
    3400
  742. Somehow the Acolyte didn't return
    3400
  743. There is no substitute for real chemistry, and these two have it, so I'm stoked.
    3400
  744. The dwarves faces made my daughter cry.
    3400
  745. I still love that line: “You cowardly snake, you just killed an unarmed man.” “Well, he should have armed himself if he was going to decorate his bar with my friend.”
    3400
  746. "We have an all-female director staff this season." "How does that help us?" "Now when they tell us it sucks, we can just say they're sexist."
    3400
  747. I can't believe they briefly brought back Spectacular Spiderman. That show should have never been cancelled, thanks a lot Disney.
    3400
  748. The power of 1, the power of 2, the power of many shots to get me through watching this shyte 😅
    3400
  749. Hey Vasquez, have you ever been mistaken for a man? Vasquez : No. Have you?
    3400
  750. 'Not-terrible...' We will be hitting all new, dizzying heights when we start hitting 'Mildly-tolerable'.
    3400
  751. Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
    3400
  752. The most unbelievable thing in the movie is the fact that she got every single person in the world to take back their wish
    3400
  753. Normal people like this video cause it's awesome, NPCs like this video cause they aren't able to comprehend the concept of sarcasm. Genius.
    3400
  754. "For anyone who knows absolutely nothing about video games" Shows photo of She Who Must Not Be Named 😂😂😂😂😂
    3400
  755. The fact that this movie took 8 years to make is actually insane. I feel that we should normalize franchises making movies that are for fans. Not every movie has to bring in masses of new fans. I respect Scott’s decision to serve his current fan community rather than make a greedy attempt to increase the community.
    3400
  756. As always Ralph Fiennes owns every single movie he’s in, he never misses
    3300
  757. I will never understand how they can spend MILLIONS on special effects but only offer pocket change on writing the script???
    3300
  758. You can’t condense Napoleon’s life into 3 hours. He need a TV show that’s 10 seasons long
    3300
  759. I'm starting to really despise this trend of killing main characters from previous entries in a franchise in demeaning ways.
    3300
  760. The Drinker bears our burdens so we don't have to.
    3300
  761. Knowing Disney, they'll replace her with someone like Brie Larson.
    3300
  762. TBH I gotta give them some respect for having the kind of diverse cast that would be approved of by "modern audiences" and just letting them be those characters without trotting it out like they deserve a gold star sticker and a cookie for it.
    3300
  763. The franchise is a walking corpse. Nothing they announce is going to make me watch Star Wars again. Let the franchise just die already.
    3300
  764. Drinker stop lying. Everyone in Scotland looks like an extra from the Walking Dead
    3300
  765. "Agatha Go Away Now!"
    3300
  766. Henry Cavill’s agent is in the running for one of the Worst Agents ever
    3300
  767. "We didn't want to portray disabled people in a negative way." He didn't become evil because he was disabled, he became disabled for being evil.
    3300
  768. Terminator: Woke Fate: "I'll be back." Terminator fans: "We won't."
    3300
  769. "It's about a woman whose superpower is her mind" - the same actress who starred in 50 Shades of Grey.
    3300
  770. How the MCU deals with humor these days is a major issue. Phases 1-3 dealt with it in a way in which the humor was more of an ice breaker or a light hearted exchange between the characters that never messed with or ruined a serious plot. The story was still every bit as serious as it was needed to be. Phase 4 treats humor like its a necessity in every show or movie irrespective of what the story requires. Thor love and thunder is a film which requires a very serious approach given it's context. Instead Waititi was like "make Thor funny hehehehe"
    3300
  771. The reason Furiosa is bombing is because their advertising campaign was absolutely abysmal. They never released a good trailer. Fury Road was the opposite. Second reason is because nobody cares about a young Furiosa who isn't Charlize. Turns out people want to see Max in a MAD MAX film
    3300
  772. Avoiding anything with Melissa McCarthy has served me well in life so far, I see no reason whatsoever to change that.
    3300
  773. Can you imagine the shitstorm of sexism and objectification anger that the Hollywood elites would have thrown if someone even suggested Ms. Sweeney walk out on national television like that?
    3300
  774. "2020: You can go away now!" - The Critical Drinker The best thing I've heard in a long time
    3300
  775. The under construction sky scraper thing was actually pretty realistic. China has a huge problem with construction of residential buildings taking so long that people end up moving into them before they are finished because they were planning on it being their primary residence and they don’t have enough money to keep waiting. The finished quality also sucks, they jokingly referred to it as “tofu dreg construction”
    3300
  776. this is a movie that tries way too hard to be deep and ended up being obvious and annoying
    3300
  777. I’m starting to think Henry Cavill’s agent secretly hates him and wants him embarrassed for eternity.
    3300
  778. I just pretend the Skywalker saga and Star Wars ended successfully in TROTJ.
    3300
  779. Valkyrie: Sold people into slavery so they could die horrific deaths for... drinking money. That was it. She was pure villain. But no it's fine because that is the go to thing when, 'Hey, I saw bad things happen to friends of mine.'
    3300
  780. You see, children, this is called "Inference." It's when you find deeper meaning through context clues, without making it all about yourself. This is what makes us appreciate art.
    3300
  781. "There's wokeness in the world, Mr. Frodo. And it's worth fighting against."
    3300
  782. According to Herzog, the Indians who worked on the film were terrified of Kinski, thought he was a demon , and offered Herzog that they'd kill Kinski for him. Apparently Herzog did not immediately decline lol.
    3300
  783. “Scott you may have helped saved the universe with the Avengers, but what have you done lately?! You gotta do better Scott, you gotta step up!” -Scott’s Family
    3300
  784. It is a miracle that they refrained from casting Mark Wahlberg in this movie. One of the most important decisions that makes all the difference.
    3300
  785. I feel like this movie reverberates stronger and stronger the more time goes on.
    3300
  786. Love when she says she’s great at controlling her anger while she’s raging hardcore in front of Hulk.
    3300
  787. “Ellie’s gay by the way” - The Drinker
    3200
  788. the recruiter absolutely stole the show for me in episode one, i don't think a game of rock paper scissors has ever caused my heart to race like that
    3200
  789. I think ANY production that involved Klaus Kinski was probably an insane shoot...
    3200
  790. Disney killed the goose that laid the golden egg, and has the audacity to be shocked that there’s no more gold.
    3200
  791. The fact that SJW's and feminists decried this movie was reason enough for me to want to watch it. The fact that Drinker has given it his seal of approval means I MUST watch this movie.
    3200
  792. Wouldn't it be lovely to live through a period of great video game movies.
    3200
  793. Can’t wait for Stallone to star as an elderly steroid riddled former truck driver who’s forced out of retirement to compete in an arm wrestling tournament because his middle-aged son is kidnapped by the ruthless arm wrestling cartel.
    3200
  794. It's actually hilarious watching writers insert themselves into every script
    3200
  795. I hate how continuity is like an allergy to writers nowadays. Like, trying to stay consistent with a fictional world‘s logic is too hard, so we can make up whatever bullshit we want and excuse it by saying, “It’s just magic, bro. Ain’t gotta explain shit.”
    3200
  796. I thought this show was a comedy. Then I realized it's a tragedy - Every single Hulk fan
    3200
  797. “Man wishes he didn’t have cancer” *Takes back wish because strong woman says so*. Makes sense!
    3200
  798. Such a fantastic film, and also a huge breath of fresh air from the shit that's being pushed out lately like Morbius and Dr Strange, great review Drinker!
    3200
  799. Galadriel: "There is an Imposter Among Us." Sauron with a blonde wig and pointy ears: "Oh no, what shall we do about it?"
    3200
  800. I wish they hadn't made up some new character to be the protagonist
    3200
  801. Love how actors lose all ability to act when endorsing politicians.
    3200
  802. What, you liked the T1000 being liquid metal! Well, good news! This new Terminator is GENDER fluid!
    3200
  803. In my opinion, what makes superman interesting (apart from his moral aspect) is his dilemma of being a god, helping people, defeating cosmic villains, but not being able to change the selfish, conflictual and destructive human nature. I vaguely remember a story drawn by Alex Ross in which Superman was trying to end the hunger in Africa. It was very interesting because even though he was able to move planets, he was still dealing with something that he could never definitively end, but he did it because he was more human than humanity.
    3200
  804. If Black Panther was nominated for an Oscar for Best Picture, then Logan should be awarded an Oscar for Best Picture...
    3200
  805. I liked it, but the most unbelievable thing is that they knew how to thread a film projector. It’s not that easy.
    3200
  806. The reason Rings of Power is such a blasphemous catastrophe is that the creator has had no input. Tolkien didn't sell his IP to anyone, he left in the custodial hands of his family who have stabbed him in the back for a quick buck. Star Wars is dead because George sold it himself and I don't care what they do with it. But I will stand as a man of the West for the world Tolkien created for everyone to enjoy.
    3200
  807. Now their failure is complete. 😈
    3200
  808. This video series should be mandatory viewing for everyone working in the entertainment industry.
    3100
  809. thank you for supporting the Chernobyl Children's Project
    3100
  810. Minus the sarcasm, I actually see myself accepting the "Rose is a First Order Spy" idea more readily than what we actually got from the finished film.
    3100
  811. Don't worry Drinker, Luke will show up at the end and tell the kids, "it's time for the jedi to end"
    3100
  812. Well. They can't take it when they face an ACTUAL strong woman. They need a strong woman weak enough to do their bidding.
    3100
  813. this show is like if star wars focused on a random girl with a stick and a random storm trooper. oh wait.
    3100
  814. Fun fact: the classic animated Snow White has saved Disney from bankruptcy on more than one occasion. This “remake” is shaping up to be a total inversion of that accomplishment.
    3100
  815. Critical Drinker: "The ad revenue for this video will go to help children." YouTube: "silly drunk. You think we care enough about children to allow you to monetize a video?"
    3100
  816. We celebrated too damn early, now she's gonna stay out of spite. "Celebrate" is a loose word... there's nothing to salvage from Lucasfilm.
    3100
  817. You know Drinker genuinely likes something when he sounds sober.
    3100
  818. "What's your name?" "Gandalf" "And who are your people?" "I am alone" "Ok, so Gandalf Solo"
    3100
  819. Agatha: “And I killed Sparky too!” John Wick: (whips out pencil)
    3100
  820. William Shatner on getting old: "I find age such a foreign concept. I have to be reminded. I still have the extraordinary feeling of adventure, striking out into unknown fields." On turning 90: "It's disgusting. It's a disgusting number. I mean, I don't like 90. When I heard that 90 was coming up, I thought, 'What the heck is that?' I remember 90 way back when I was in Canada and I thought, '90! People don't live till 90.' And here I am."
    3100
  821. “He who controls the Toilet Duck controls the Drinker”
    3100
  822. At first I thought it was completely malicious, but now I see that it’s clearly mostly incompetence
    3100
  823. Mera: Did you ever love some- Batman: Shut up, i don't remember asking you
    3000
  824. Quick story: I work in a nursing home and there's a resident there that absolutely loves film of all ages and genres. As such, he handles and plans all of our in house theater's screenings. He chose Independence Day to screen yesterday, instead of the usual older material, or toned down newer films, and not one resident didn't think it was awesome as can be and fun as hell. First time I've ever heard our theater's bass booming like an IMAX. It was heartening to say the least. Anyway, that's all I've got for today... I'll go away now.
    3000
  825. The starbucks cup was good because it subverted your expectations.
    3000
  826. I walked into the theater with my son, fully expecting to sit through another boring, woke animation. It was so good, my boy asked to see it again the following weekend and I was happy to take him. I hope this momentum continues
    3000
  827. When King Theoden said "DEATHHHHHHH!" I don't think he meant that for this franchise
    3000
  828. Old Lady: "Who are you?" Daisy: "I'm Rey." Old Lady: "No, who are your people?" Daisy: "Oh, I'm Rey, Rey Skyscraper."
    3000
  829. A bloody classic! We gotta watch this with you on EFAP moves some time.
    3000
  830. Isn't it painfully ironic that, after all the attempts to modernize Star Trek, the best Trek we get is still just... Shatner.
    3000
  831. The one good thing about Kingdom whether you like or hate it is that it doesn’t really affect the enjoyment of the previous trilogy. Toy Story 4, Kung Fu Panda 4 basically undo the endings of the third film. This is basically a whole new story with a new set of characters set centuries after the trilogy. There’s nothing they can ruin unless they deliberately try to
    3000
  832. They clearly made one season and then split it into two.
    3000
  833. The Mandalorian : portrays Luke as a bad-ass hero. K Kennedy : 'He can't do that! Shoot him or something!!'
    3000
  834. Gina Carano: The girl with more balls than everyone at Lucasfilm combined
    3000
  835. Since it's 95% CGI anyway, it's still not too late for them to reshoot all of Zegler's scenes with Sydney Sweeney over a long weekend.
    3000
  836. don't think i've ever heard the drinker sound so personally offended by a movie
    3000
  837. Am I the only one who thinks that once you’ve seen one of these movies, you’ve seen them all?
    3000
  838. Tolkiens spinning so fast in his grave, he could legally be classified as a particle accelerator
    3000
  839. It's almost as if they dangled Henry as bait.
    3000
  840. You will be sorely missed Drinker. Thank you for everything. See you next week or so.
    2900
  841. Im gonna say it, i love that the relationship of Gwen and her father is nice, im so sick of every female main character being a dick for no reason to every male in the screen, seeing Gwen hug her father despise the difference on how they do good in the world made me so happy!
    2900
  842. A Good Studio is a one that doesn’t insult fans or lecture them
    2900
  843. Last time I came this early Tatiana actually offered to give me a refund.
    2900
  844. For what it’s worth, I appreciate that the people making it were trying to do something original and entertaining. I can respect that.
    2900
  845. Anyone remember when Star Trek was smart? I miss that...
    2900
  846. Your sarcasm is over the top hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do carry on!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    2900
  847. It didn't suck. That's a big achievement nowadays.
    2900
  848. My favorite part of the movie was when Luke was ready to mercilessly butcher a sleeping adolescent with his burning hot laser sword. At that moment I was like, yes, Rian Johnson gets it, he knows Luke. Rian is the new George Lucus.
    2900
  849. In a world where Michael Keaton returns to a sequel with the same amount of energy 36 years later.
    2900
  850. Yoda: "You will face an evil that can crush one's soul." Luke: "The Dark Side?" Yoda: "No, Disney."
    2900
  851. You're gonna need a bigger drink.
    2900
  852. The real debate is, which multi-season major plot point amounted to less? a) Bran being the three eyed raven b) Jon being Aegon Targaryan
    2900
  853. Vincent D'Onafrio advised Tom Cruise to get an apartment in London when he told him he was doing a Kubrick film. He said 'you're gonna be filming waaay longer than you think'.
    2900
  854. Captain Marvel really is the most powerful character. Not even Thanos had enough power to destroy the MCU.
    2900
  855. It’s pretty incredible how Scorsese is turning 81 in about a month, and he’s still making great movies that have so much artistic vision and value in them. Whether he’s one of your favorites or not, it’d be very difficult to make the argument that he’s not one of the greatest directors of any generation.

  859. Hugh Jackman needs to get an award for his consistently awesome portrayal of Wolverine for over two decades. Imho, Wolverine is the GOAT of the MCU.

  860. Scuttle was an absolute unit in the animated film. He's the one who conducted the espionage mission that led to the discovery that Ursula was going to marry Eric. He gathered air and sea units to lead a joint operation to stall the wedding, with himself leading multiple bombing runs. He went toe-to-toe against the sea witch, hitting her with a deafening scream which resulted in him getting choked; even through the asphyxiation, he grabbed the locket and pulled until its string broke, crashing the locket to the ground and returning Ariel's voice where it belonged. Now he's just Awkwafina.

  866. Zack Snyder had the courage to go back to work on this movie despite the bad memories it implied. He even gave up his pay to be able to finance this new version, and he dedicated this work to his daughter. Hats off to him ! This movie is not perfect but is all the same wonderful !
    2800
  867. Predator Dark Ages proved you could have 2 cultures who were LITERALLY at HOLY WAR with eachother and successfully take down the predator together without it being a pile of shite. I don't expect a high dollar studio to be able to pull off that feat.
    2800
  868. Star Trek 1966 made me want to be an engineer (and I did). Star Trek Section 31 made me want to have a lobotomy.

  876. For the love of God can someone please tell Disney, demeaning great male characters and throwing in talentless girl bosses will NEVER work!

  877. My favorite thing about this movie is how Patty Jenkins, the writer/director, is saying that it’s a masterpiece. The narcissism is unreal!
    2800
  878. Ariana Grande was a child/teenage actress before she became a singer, that's why she seems so natural on screen.
    2800
  879. Another odd thing about the show was when Sansa berated Theon and told him that he didn’t understand how badly Ramsey treated her. This was after Theon was starved, tortured, mutilated and the Bolton’s sent his manhood back to Pyke in a box.
    2800
  880. I don't think we should gloss over the fact that WonderWoman RAPED the guy Steve Trevor was inhabiting. You can't give consent if you're not in control of your body, which makes it as bad as what Bill Cosby was convicted for except that wonderwonman didn't put Steve's soul in the guy, she just happily took advantage of him. It's like if a guy found an unconscious woman in a park, put the mask of his dead girlfriend over her face and then raped her, except wonderwoman also willingly put his life in danger multiple times, had him break laws and attack the secret service and was actually SAD that she had to give the poor guy his body back, not because it was the right thing to do, but so she could get her powers back. What if the guy had a girlfriend or was married? What if he was a devout Christian and virgin and was saving himself for marriage? What if he was gay? What about the crimes they committed with his body? The violation of this poor guy's dignity, privacy, autonomy, and life is utterly astounding and Wonder woman is now a totally self centered terrible person and RAPIST and Patty Jenkins wrote this garbage which speaks volumes about her character.

  888. Filoni was more concerned about being celebrated for his female characters, than he was telling a compelling story.
    2700
  889. That was one of the angriest “go away now” sign offs ever. Well deserved, Disney.
    2700
  890. All this because Peter Dinklage felt he could speak on behalf of everyone with his condition - now we have to deal with these CGI abominations.
    2700
  891. It’s really crazy how recommends from “professional movie critics” never bring me the same excitement to watch something unlike The Critical Drinker.

  894. Some will call it “actions without consequences,” I call it “lazy writing”

  895. The Caesar trilogy is proof that reboots can be awesome when the teams behind them care about things like story and character instead of relying on the brand name to sell it and going with a lazy check box mentality with the script.

  899. When I saw Pattinson in the lead I thought 'maybe there's actually a story here' but the desire to see it was quickly squashed by the knowledge that Ruffalo was the villain. Thank you for preserving 2 hours of my life that I might have squandered. Sucks too because it's been a long winter & I'd love a reason to take the family out to the movies.

  904. At this point, it became utterly insulting that the Tolkien estate did this to his creator. Shame on them.
    2700
  905. My favorite part of the season was when Galadriel told Sauron “if you liked it, you should have put a ring on it”, then started twerking. Truly a moment of the show.

  906. When IGN gives your product a 2/10, you done fucked up!
    2700
  907. Mike Stoklasa recently predicted the end of Hollywood because younger people aren't interested in watching full-length films (because they don't have the attention-spans for it) and mature, older people are becoming so disenchanted by the current culture of the entertainment industry hellbent on warping and destroying IP's, that we'd rather re-watch our old favorites films and shows than watch whatever sludge they sh!t this week, which is always now accompanied by a divisive sociopolitical topic that only 5% of the audience cares about.
    2700
  908. Predator 2 is getting better with age. I think it’s a good sequel. And it’s monumentally better than the later titles.
    2700
  909. The first season is pretty special. And if you look at it quite "diverse". Women that are strong, a poc main character. But you somehow don't notice it. Almost as if they made likeable characters

  913. Three different people were like "Ellie, you're a natural leader." How? Why? What about her makes her a natural leader, and how is it apparent to so many people?

  914. I wanted. But I wanted it to be his escape from asylum, do more crazy stuff, go deep into some revenge plot. Not musical.

  915. At this rate who's going to have the worse Universe going forward ... Marvel or DC?
    2700
  916. I am 69 years old. I saw Snow White in 1962. I have just watched it for the second time, after all the intervening years. It is a wonderful movie. It is a historical treasure. What Disney is doing to it is a cultural war crime.
    2700
  917. Personal point of privilege: we prefer to call it Watchpeople!
    2700
  918. The old lady scene was really creepy until the CGI ruined it. I felt like I was watching Goosebumps 3

  919. Ahsoka is actually a Jigsaw creation designed to punish its audience for the crime of subscribing to Disney+
    2700
  920. I can’t remember the last time I was so engaged and shocked at the twists of a show like that.
    2600
  921. "Once you accept everything there's no need to strive for anything." .... Woah.
    2600
  922. Also, can we just talk about how Disney felt the need to elevate already strong female characters into "even stronger" by basically making their whole personality "badass female character"? For example, Belle was already a well written character, a girl who is nerdy and quiet but also knows where to stand up for herself or the people she cares about (rejecting Gaston directly, yelling at the Beast and refusing to join him for dinner, showing no qualms about walking away from him when he tried to scare her, scolding him later for not controlling his temper). But the live action? Belle is not strong enough, she needs an occupation to be a good character, so she is the scientist now. They also shoved in a few sexist comments that were too on the nose and cringy, to say the least. Jasmine? OG Jasmine was already strong. Again, she knew when to speak for herself and exactly what she wanted. She knew her own worth and she wanted a suitor who would accept her as a person, rather than for her title. But in the live action, Jasmine needs an ambition. She wants to be the sultan. And she positively insults all men (unlike in the animated version, where she only insults the over the top haughty princes) and has an entire song that talks about not allowing herself to be silenced when there were no instances of anyone trying to silence her. Again, "strong female character". And quite possibly the most unnecessary change was to Mulan. OG Mulan was arguably the most physically powerful female character but the creators felt the need to change that as well. OG Mulan was a socially awkward girl who cares about her family, and disguises herself as a soldier for selfless reasons. She is not perfect; she has to learn everything from scratch, she fails time and time again while training, she has to work her way to the top. She also used her brains in most of the fights because physical strength in itself isn't enough, and that's what made her stand apart from the others. She got along with the male characters perfectly well, with no need of comparison or proving herself to be better. But the live action version? That Mulan is born with magical chi, she has trained from when she was a child, so she has to face no difficulties when joining the army. The only thing stopping her from proving herself is the society; otherwise, she is perfect. She is far from being a realistic character because young girls would look at her and think, "well, she's strong because she was born with it". Not to mention, the live action Mulan was as boring as a slice of bread. She had no character other than "female warrior", emphasis on the "female". Basically, physical strength isn't everything. All of the OG princesses were strong in their own ways. Cinderella dealt with abuse and torment for years, but still kept her good morals and kindness. Snow White realized that running away from toxic situations is not cowardly. Tiana wanted to have an occupation to support herself and her mother, and worked hard for it. Ariel wanted to explore a new world that she didn't know, and be part of new experiences. Also. Romance is not weak. A strong female character can still fall in love. And if they choose to stay single, it should not be because "she's too independent for a partner". You can be in a relationship and still be independent. If the relationship is built on mutual trust and understanding, no one is "too strong" for it. I understand that aroace characters can exist, but their motive for not having a partner should not be "oh, I don't need a man"; it should just be that they're happier with friends or family, and they don't really feel the need to be in a relationship.
    2600
  923. The only reason Doctor Who should exist now is for Critical Drinker to make reviews.

  928. It's fantastic that they properly portrayed luffy as a happy idiot. Just as Oda intended. Not some edgy or cool hero for modern audiences.

  931. Even with the flaws you mentioned, this movie will still be more popular and profitable than anything Disney/Marvel has crapped out in recent years.

  932. “Men are easily manipulated” Said the woman who was manipulated by men her whole life
    2600
  933. You either die a hero or live long enough to feature "the message" in a Disney sequel
    2600
  934. They fired the one woman actress who actually looked like she could pull off her fight scenes. Off the top of my head, she may have been the buffest canon human in star wars.
    2600
  935. It baffles me how Joel Schmaucher can both make some pretty solid movies, and then make Batman Forever and Batman and Robin
    2600
  936. My number 1 is the Drinker's liver vs. that final bottle of Jack Daniels.
    2600
  937. I'm an officer who has had to investigate child crimes. Thankfully, not to the degree Tim Ballard did, but is still takes a toll. Jim Caviezel gives a knockout performance. I concur with the drinker's analysis. What it took to get this movie into the theater is a story all it's own. Shame on Disney for seemingly trying to bury this movie. Everyone should go see this movie because we need people aware of the evil out there. Props to you drinker for covering and recommending it.
    2600
  938. How this movie got nominated for 13 f*cking Oscar nominations is beyond me!
    2600
  939. The moral is that masculinity is good, as long as it's woman exhibiting it.
    2600
  940. Drinker these are dark times, we need people like you to express our frustrations with modernity. Keep it up mate
    2600
  941. Disney not having a coherent three-movie storyline before filming the first movie and not having a reunion of arguably the three most beloved sci-fi characters in history was inextricably stupid beyond belief.
    2600
  942. "He Vadered, he Vadered!!!!" This is what passes for a movie critic in modern media. Another of her best quotes was "Mufasa is great if you just shut your brain off and try to enjoy it." Yes, I always love projects that discourage me from using my brain in any way, none of that pesky thinking to get in the way of me mindlessly consuming Disney content
    2600
  943. George should have never, EVER sold Lucasfilm to Disney. Full stop.

    2500
  949. "Lost boys." "But you're not all boys." "So??" "Well I guess it doesn't really matter" Top tier writing
    2500
  950. Oppenheimer involved real set construction and hired some of the most well-paid actors in Hollywood, and still came to a budget of 100mil. Matt Damon & RDJ said in interviews: he (Nolan) hates wasting money. So you get a sh*tty accommodation and no chairs on set but you don't care because every cent gets poured into the production. And if you're not working on the set, you're not allowed on'. The fact that a lot of them mentioned that multiple times goes to show how normal the waste of cash must be on other sets.
    2500
  951. It's a shame Hayden and Ewan can still pull off these characters so well and are willing to reprise the roles only for Disney to give use this.
    2500
  952. The DC universe is Warner Bros kryptonite.
    2500
  953. I’m not excited for Wicked, but the fan made poster is better than most of the movies posters we got for that film

  954. Now this is proper Star Trek, not what we've been getting the last few years.
    2500
  955. It's the Terminator 2 of horror movies.
    2500
  956. The movie felt a little like the single player campaign of a FPS.
    2500
  957. I much prefer Reacher acting alone.
    2500
  958. If it weren’t for people like Critical Drinker, Friday Night Tights etc, I think I’d honestly just be gaslit into thinking I’m the only one who thinks the way I do. I’m so thankful for these creators.

    2500
  967. The more I look at Rings of Power, the more I think perhaps we treated The Hobbit Trilogy too harshly.
    2500
  968. The original Snow White still holds up very well after 87 years. There was no need to remake it as live action.
    2500
  969. Movie sucked cause there was no Captain America, false advertising
    2500
  970. Been saying for a while that this is business model. The backlash is basically free marketing for them. Glad to see people spreading the word.

  977. The fact that Bernard Hill wasn’t mentioned for his passing, is of the upmost bullshit.

  981. Turns out being contractually obligated to make five seasons of a show can really come to bite you.
    2400
  982. Commenting after watching: A writer is only as interesting as his life experience. You write from the hardships you had, things you had to go through, people you met, places you've seen, cultures you discovered, your profession, even your hobbies. If your only life experience comes from reading Twitter posts, there's no way you can be a good writer period.
    2400
  983. Frank Herbert himself said it best: "There's an unwritten compact between you and the reader. If someone enters a bookstore and sets down hard-earned money (energy) for your book, you owe that person some entertainment." Movies written by actual children would probably be at least somewhat entertaining. Current writers forget that their movies should be something you want to see because they'll be an enjoyable experience.
    2400
  984. Worst leadership displayed on screen since Lt. Gorman in "Aliens" Poe asked a simple question: What's the plan?" You fail as a leader if you are unable to communicate with your crew and would rather antagonize and belittle one of the best soldier in your army just to make the point that you are a strong female and won't be mansplained what to do when Poe didn't even challenge her authority at first. He only asked what was the fucking plan. That's the most legitimate question to ask your leader in that situation.

  991. But you don't get it, Drinker: that space shuttle was powered by the same military grade premium coal used in Rebel Moon.

  992. Disney is the prime example of, “You either die as a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain.”
    2400
  993. I used to like my actors, when all I knew about them, was how well they could act.

  1000. The cast and the acting blew me away. Having Gary Oldman for a scene that lasts a minute is such a Nolan thing to do😂
    2300
  1001. I predict 30% from the critics and 90% from the audience! Can’t wait for this movie. Looking forward to the soundtrack too!
    2300
  1002. Ryan Reynolds plays himself in every single film yet it still feels different and refreshing.
    2300
  1003. What gets me, is that she saw a movie about sisters and thought: Lesbians In Space! I'm concerned about that.
    2300
  1004. It’s not like 99% of the women in the films denied Bond of his womanising. They were all over him as much as he was all over them
    2300
  1005. Remember when stories were allowed to END?
    2300
  1006. An 8M box office opening against a 120M Budget. Yikes....
    2300
  1007. That was one of the most happy Go Away Nows so far. I feel like staying.
    2300
  1008. "Agatha. We chaged the title 15 times." I'm sure that will be such a success. Can you imagine all the lives that will be saved? It may even bring world peace. Lesbian Witches! It worked so well with Star Wars...
    2300
  1009. I guess Basil pulled the plug
    2300
  1010. I don’t care if the movie was good or bad I will never forgive the MCU for (ironically) butchering one of my favorite comic book villains Gorr
    2300
  1011. My biggest gripe is how they changed the story, so Ariel “doesn’t go on land for a boy any more, but for herself” in some female empowerment moment. 1989-Ariel went on land partly because she fell in love but mostly because she wanted to be independent of her father and see the world upstairs. She wanted an adventure. Falling in love was the last push she needed. And what’s so wrong about sacrificing yourself for love anyway?! Stupid postmodernist bullshit narcissistic ideologies BLERGH!
    2300
  1012. That company is not only up themselves in every way but has already been exposed to what they’ve been pushing in games. Stop paying for products that hate you folks.
    2300
  1013. I think a well-written hero needs to have some kind of struggle, where achieving a personal goal or obtaining some kind of power isn't easy and requires hard work and sacrifice.
    2300
  1014. "In space, no one can hear you REEEEEEEEEEEEEE."
    2300
  1015. Ghostbusters Afterlife: "It's been 30 years since ghosts were seen". This mean everything.
    2300
  1016. It served its target audience. Can’t say that about many movies these days.
    2300
  1017. Frankly I find myself offended for other people's sake that a series about a deaf girl wasn't directed or produced by deaf people. Truly more HEARING PRIVILEGE!
    2300
  1018. Like this post to give critical one beer
    2300
  1019. "No one likes a showoff." "Unless what they're showing off is dope as fuck." "Fuck... that's true." This little exchange nearly made me choke. Cena's delivery is something else here.
    2300
  1020. Good to know that my favorite part of the MCU still hasn't recovered from Falcon and Winter Soldier.
    2300
  1021. That line about "the off chance the audience looks up from their phone" is so painfully accurate. Every time I watch a movie with somebody, be it my girlfriend or family, they're dicking around on their phone the whole time. Since when did everyone having crippling ADD?
    2300
  1022. Basically, they sacrificed the movie quality to “kickstart” his daughter music and acting career.
    2300
  1023. 400M movies and it they still look like crap.
    2300
  1024. The thing is, the old Snow White was a girl boss already. She basically took over a house of 7 men, flipped it, bossed them around a bit, made new rules (washing hands etc.) yet was still sweet and feminine.
    2300
  1025. I imagine Bully Maguire as the main villain and then he said: "Look at little Iron Boy Jr., gonna cry?" And do the Emo dance to MCU Peter Parker
    2300
  1026. Two words already killed any interest I could have had in this movie: Mark Ruffalo.
    2300
  1027. That cameraman during the Sydney Sweeney interview was doing God's work
    2300
  1028. Honestly I would Rather Have A Dumb Movie Than a Woke one, because at least it doesn’t lecture you and Let’s you enjoy something that doesn’t feel like Pushing Agendas for the sake of Agendas
    2300
  1029. The Oscar really need a Best Stunt category. They deserve all the love.
    2300
  1030. I got my wife into the Daredevil and Punisher Netflix series. A woman who hates ANYTHING superhero related and loves watching shows like "Love is Blind". That is how good those shows were. We had it sooo good. Daredevil Reborn gives me hope. Its like they finally listened.
    2300
  1031. "As each one died, you felt the hole they left". That sir, is an amazing way to describe it, and I never considered it that way. In Predator, as each soldier died it felt more hopeless and... empty. Color stripped away from a painting that was whole with all members on stage. Excellent job, Drinker.
    2300
  1032. I don't know why they just couldn't make a movie called: The Falcon...
    2300
  1033. That's the part that sucks. I don't want my favorite brands to fail, but at this point I think that they need to in order for things to get better.
    2300
  1034. 1:07 Objection! The bottom of the Marianas Trench is at least wet.
    2300
  1035. Michael Bay directing a Tim Burton script? Imagine all the explosions and utter chaos infused with Tim Burton's wackiness, it would have been a glorious incomprehensible mess. ;)
    2300
  1036. Wow I’m so shocked that the old Stranger turned out to be Gandalf! SAID NO ONE EVER
    2300
  1037. I swear when I was growing up in the 90s and early 2000s, people had actually heard of (and watched) the movies up for Oscars. Which in turn created a natural interest in the ceremony.
    2200
  1038. Watching Jeremy Renner next to Brie Larson reminds me of how uncomfortable it is for me to be in the same room as my ex-wife
    2200
  1039. The fact that Marvel got two time Academy Award Winner Mahershala Ali to play Blade which is one of the best casting choice ever then gave him a script where he was not the lead in his own Blade solo movie is one of the most ridiculous thing i've ever heard
    2200
  1040. Disney used to be my childhood and adulthood, and now it has become its own worst enemy.
    2200
  1041. The Avengers Cast expected that people would listen to them about what they should think or vote 😂
    2200
  1042. The thing that really gets me was when this show first came out, people were defending the way Boba Fett’s character was by saying, “He’s an actual character now, instead of a random guy in a suit like in the OT.” Then by the time the finale came around, those same people were saying, “Well, Boba Fett’s not interesting enough to carry an entire show by himself” to excuse how mediocre and scatterbrained to entire plot was.
    2200
  1043. The fact that the creators replaced Scott’s daughter with a different person without letting the OG actress know and finding out about it on a SOCIAL MEDIA POST, was such a d*ck move and I honestly feel bad for the original actress.
    2200
  1044. Its been a hell of a week for Henry Cavil
    2200
  1045. It's odd that we are judged for disliking these characters because of their gender when it's the writers that clearly have an issue with gender.
    2200
  1046. Modern Hollywood to longtime fans: "Your time is over. This movie wasn't made for you."
    2200
  1047. It's like Melissa McCarthy's existence is a bad omen of Hollywood. Whatever movie she's in is ultimately shitty, whether she plays a main role or an extra. It's fascinating really.
    2200
  1048. The one thing Disney is not afraid of: their customers. And that’s exactly the most important group to cater to.
    2200
  1049. Should have said “for every Resident Evil there’s another Resident Evil”
    2200
  1050. This is what most critics often forget to do : Constructive suggestions
    2200
  1051. MARK MY WORDS. The Darth Rey-der shot is absolutely from a Disney rip-off of Luke's final trial in Dagobah, where he fights himself. MARK MY WORDS.
    2200
  1052. Summed it up nicely, mate. I didn't watch Firefly until I saw the Serenity film, which is far more superb than it has any right to be. After that I went back and binged Firefly. It's a tragedy it only lasted one season- but then at least we have that one near perfect run. Shindig , War Stories, Heart of Glory and Jaynestown are some of the best episodes of tv from the 2000s. Right, that's all you've got for today, so get shiny and be on your merry!
    2200
  1053. I'm rooting for the machines in this one
    2200
  1054. I refuse to believe the executives thought anyone would be Kravin this movie
    2200
  1055. "So this is how Star Trek dies. With a silent whimper..." -Senator Padme Tatiana
    2200
  1056. The fact that IGN only gave this a 5 confirms they’re impossible to please.
    2200
  1057. Plot summary - A young, trained assassin, disconnected from their roots in America has to go back to them by teaming up with their sister. Unsure if they can trust their parental figure. Towards the end there’s a big cgi fight with a smaller army compared to the avengers movies. There’s light comedy, but never touches on the dark and gritty undertones that the beginning of the movie attempts to set. This is a summary of SHANG-CHI and BLACK WIDOW, the movies are identical in many ways. One of them worked for me wanna take a guess at which one?
    2200
  1058. Brosnan for me but I am absolutely a Connery enjoyer, to put it lightly.
    2200
  1059. "That's one big pile of shit." - Ian Malcolm
    2200
  1060. Sauron watched his mom get pushed off a cliff by hobbits.
    2200
  1061. - Will 2021 be worse? Drinker: "Nah It'll be fine"
    2200
  1062. Its depressing to contemplate what happened to doctor who. It was the pinnacle of Saturday night television and bought us some of the best sci-fi stories ever seen like "blink", "empty child" and "silence in the library ". Now i didnt even know the new series of Gatwa was even on, and even worse: i didnt even care that it was on. Its true what they say, apathy is worse than hatred
    2100
  1063. Saying that this is part of Marvel's "We approved it, we regret it, we're in too deep, let's just get it over with" list of projects is the most accurate statement that could be made about this show.
    2100
  1064. Ripley is a great example of a woman who isn't a goddess, she's just a normal person who overcomes impossible odds because of her will and wit
    2100
  1065. Fun fact: Apparently, Gareth Edwards didn't want to start working on the VFX until they had the final frames and footage that they were actually going to use in the movie, so in the end, it didn't have to cost like $300M for it to look this beautiful. He had a clear vision of what he wanted to make and didn't waste people's time. We really need more of these. 😅
    2100
  1066. Lying to investors and even saying "You have to pay us to see the numbers" always end badly.
    2100
  1067. This movie is so good that my quadriplegic uncle got up after years and walked out of the theater
    2100
  1068. As a wise man once said: “There are two types of people. Those who like the new Star Wars movies and those who like good films.” I’m guessing the 56 dislikers are part of the first group.
    2100
  1069. 3 Venom films, no sequel to Dredd.
    2100
  1070. “What was the point?” C’mon Drinker, there were 3: - ruin Jedi. ✅ - ruin Anakin. ✅ - launder $$$. ✅
    2100
  1071. It's a real shame since the first film really stood out.
    2100
  1072. To answer one of Drinker's questions about the plot, the movie makes it very clear he had physically fully recovered from the accident, but mentally he had lost the edge. He no longer felt invincible so he wasn't willing to put his body on the line until he was first told that Emily Blunt requested him to be there, and then to save her movie.
    2100
  1073. Isn't it crazy how they had to rewrite an entire character who was known to be a heterosexual playboy into a hyper gay freakshow because we just cant have an adaptation of an old title be tainted and unhampered with?
    2100
  1074. Whether or not it was intentional, I had a blast with it.
    2100
  1075. “Mr president we’ve found the alien ship” “Nah it’ll be fine”
    2100
  1076. The kids in this look like they do their own stunts. Korea is killing it lately.
    2100
  1077. The problem with sequels has always been needlessly convoluted plots. Simple plots with heavy character development is always the way to go
    2100
  1078. My wife made us watch this. It was incredible.....incredible that people actually spent money to make it. The script was so clumsy it had clearly been written in crayon, and JLo's performance was sub par for a community am-dram actor. She gets constantly upstaged by a small ball of light, with a decent voice actor. I think it's best used as some flashing lights and ambient noise to have on in the background while you're vacuuming the rugs or doing the dishes. Nonsense of the 1st order.
    2100
  1079. The part where Guyladriel looks at the Ring and confidently anounces "It will be perfect, when it fits a woman", well, it truly brought me to tears.
    2100
  1080. I’m convinced it’s only YouTubers left watching this show! 😂
    2100
  1081. "This is the reason why Melissa McCarthy is not playing Wonder Woman" DON'T GIVE THEM IDEAS
    2100
  1082. The audience was TRAPPED having to sit through a whole concert.
    2100
  1083. Maybe The real Venom was the friends we made along the way😊
    2100
  1084. Asian Elf: “Look at me! I’m Boromir! I’m Boromir! I’m Boromir!” The end.
    2100
  1085. I like how this story has nothing to do with Batman besides the names of the characters. As if the author was highjacking an already popular IP so that she does not have to put in the work to make the story popular on its own.
    2100
  1086. "We can synthesise this man's magical blood to resurrect Captain Kirk! " "Wow, should we synthesise more to keep the whole human race alive forever? " "Nah, it'll be fine."
    2100
  1087. Saying Bond's womanizing is 'problematic' is essentially saying "women can't be trusted to own their sexuality or pick their own sexual partners."
    2100
  1088. So, they bring in Carrie-Anne Moss only to give her 5 minutes of screentime and kill her off. With a freaking kunai. No, I'm not letting this go, cause this is stupid.
    2100
  1089. I feel like another aspect of the infantilization of entertainment is that there seems to be an increasing demand that everybody in the audience "gets" every single aspect of the film. Old Trek was full of literary references and allusions, many of which I missed when I watched for the first time. It was rewarding to come back later and appreciate the films more the second time around. Futurama is another good example - there were some jokes that I didn't understand until after I finished a math degree, for crying out loud. Writers/directors seem increasingly worried that they'll offend their audiences by making them feel stupid. But every time I've recognized that there was something I didn't understand in a film/TV show, it became an opportunity for me to learn about something new.
    2100
  1090. Can you imagine? “Alright Richard, go ahead and get in the water and the trained great white shark will pretend to attack”
    2100
  1091. "It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying NOTHING." -Macbeth
    2100
  1092. I feel when a new movie is almost immediately showered with praise, it's coming from fans having what I call Mike Wazowski syndrome - they're way too happy anything new from their favorite franchise comes out that they're [at least momentarily] blind to any flaws.
    2100
  1093. Sisu was one of the most enjoyable experiences I had in the movie theater this year. Its nice to see a film about human resilience and persistence without a character whining about victimhood and marginalization.
    2000
  1094. needs more nicholas cage, I've heard he's an expert at bear suits
    2000
  1095. I remember finding your channel and thinking “ this guy is just hilarious and he’s actually often right about his movie reviews”, now a year later I’m humbled by how well your recommendations are. I am a single father and I heavily control what my son watches and I take your word to heart. If the Drinker says Puss is good, that’s enough for me.
    2000
  1096. I cheered....... when Rey died I laughed.......when Kylo brought her back to life I cried...........when my PC rebooted half way through the film
    2000
  1097. 'Least bad' is like stubbing your toe over trapping your hand in a door. You're still gonna suffer either way.
    2000
  1098. What I love about the book is that it was rejected 23 times by all the major publishing houses, until a publisher that mainly dealt with automotive manuals took it on. Now we have this, a stunning movie and what seems an equally stunning sequal, and a book that is one of the most successful sci-fi book of all time. If you stick to the source material, you really can't go wrong, something most modern movie makers can't seem to grasp.
    2000
  1099. I miss the rounded sunglasses and the fact she was one of the few people cool enough to pull the look off.
    2000
  1100. "I think the CW would have done that better". That's probably the most brutal take I have heard so far.
    2000
  1101. Don't forget China Town Cena 😂
    2000
  1102. It looks like Hollywood have adopted the “nah it’ll be fine” way of producing movies. Drinker you’ve influenced the entertainment industry. Cheers 🍺🍺🍺🥃🍻
    2000
  1103. “You gotta do better Falcon! You’re not Captain America!”
    2000
  1104. My wife just walked in on me crying and asked why I was crying. I showed her the new terminator trailer, she looked at me and said "I know now why you cry" before jumping into a pool of lava.
    2000
  1105. The pregnant spider woman was ridiculous. Everytime she showed up for a fight i just thought to myself, "why didnt they send a non pregnant person?"
    2000
  1106. Listening to you describe the final fight between Luke and Vader gave me goose bumps. You really nailed the raw emotion of the entire fight scene..... Time for another drink (hic).
    2000
  1107. Dianna: “Check out this moving staircase!” Steve: “Oh, you mean an escalator… a technology invented in the 1880’s and in use when I was alive? Oh goodness... a trash can!”
    2000
  1108. I wanna see this guy as the new White House press secretary.
    2000
  1109. I always LOL at those "DONT KNOW" bits.
    2000
  1110. - I don't like this game. - Why don't you like gay people? - No. I said, I don't like this game. - Why do you hate trans people? - No! I said I don't like this game. - Why do you like Trump? - NO I SAID...
    2000
  1111. Indian movies, as over-the-top as they can be, are full of hidden gems like this one. They have more heart in them than almost anything Hollywood has produced for the past five years
    2000
  1112. Every time they said Lady of the Lake all I could think was: Strange Woman lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government
    2000
  1113. Who knew that emasculating and berating one of the best action heroes in cinematic history wasn’t a winning formula?
    2000
  1114. It was only a matter of time, dear viewers, considering the main characters’ obsession with drinking.
    2000
  1115. The acting between Gi-Hun & the Recruiter when playing Russian Roulette was mindblowing.
    2000
  1116. The fact that they made such a good-looking film is mind-blowing given the budget. Hollywood needs to take notes, they made something that looks better than any M-She-U project with characters you actually care about for a fraction of the cost.
    2000
  1117. Imagine bringing back my favourite doctor of all time and the first thing to do is completely disrespect his character. And on top of that, bringing back his companion in order for BBC television to push their agenda. This is an abomination and completely degenerate.
    2000
  1118. Does that mean Spiderman will get rebooted for a fourth time, this time with a 12 year old Peter and a 25 Year old May?
    2000
  1119. This is proof positive that not every movie that had a hellish production turns out bad.
    2000
  1120. The actor who plays the priest, Hamish Linklater, deserves a fucking Emmy for his performance. Absolutely stole the show imo
    2000
  1121. The thing that no adversary can hope to defeat: An overwhelming sense of entitlement.
    2000
  1122. Nah it will be fine 😂
    2000
  1123. Marvel gotta listen to what falcon said in his own show. “You gotta do better!”
    2000
  1124. Final scene: George Lucas is about to sign the rights over to disney when Deadpool appears via Cables time traveling wristwatch. He kills everyone present, looks at the camera and says "Your welcome universe". Fade to black.
    2000
  1125. As a woman I felt sad that the end didn't come to equality in Barbieland and the Ken's were still useless.
    2000
  1126. I’ve seen more minutes of Drinker reviews than minutes of superhero movies this year. And I’m very happy with that choice.
    2000
  1127. Are you tellin me that a show that has a poster of an aging woman looking boss girl with her foot on a guy on the ground is generic and predictable slop?
    1900
  1128. My wife & I took her little sister and her boyfriend to see this afternoon, and my god what a miserable experience it was. There was a decent amount of people in the cinema (mostly younger date-night couples), and we got 30 minutes into the movie, with not a single person in the entire cinema laughing once, until my wife leaned over, said she felt sick and if I could drive her home, and we left. As we got to the car, she said she lied about feeling sick and just wanted to get us out as she genuinely felt embarassed for me as her husband. My wife is in no way engaged in the culture war, has no idea what the word "woke" even means, and is the biggest normie there is, and even she could see through this crap. Later we met up with her sister and her boyfriend for dinner, and they told us they left shortly after as her sister felt the same way. Again, those two are complete normies like my wife, and the sister and her boyfriend started ranting for a good 10 minutes how terrible movies are now, and how they "all have this weird agenda they keep pushing". Who are these movies even made for anymore? Regular normies absolutely hate this shit, and every production company seems to be losing cash hand-over-fist. That ESG money must be on a whole other level if they still haven't learned anything.
    1900
  1129. TCD, you should write an action screenplay and partner with a savvy production house and action team to execute it. I'm sure they'd be very interested.
    1900
  1130. Any man that destroyed an IP this thoroughly would have been fired a long time ago.
    1900
  1131. If I was a dwarf and some young girl who invaded my home gave me a broom and tell me to clean my house, I would say "I just got back from my job as a MINER, you better put that broom to use missy, or you'll have to find somewhere else to LIVE"
    1900
  1132. Man, I'm a huge fan of yours, I'm Mexican and live in Mexico and I have to thank you for doing us justice with this review and I was wondering if your were gonna do this one, you are always welcome in our country!!
    1900
  1133. If there was an award for best trailer, this would win it. So much anxiety and tension building. Perfect
    1900
  1134. You poor soul, sitting through that shitshow for us.
    1900
  1135. The Rose Tico character finally makes sense. Thanks Critical Drinker.
    1900
  1136. CD; you got everything perfect except for "Love", who is in many ways used as a mirror for K. See Wallace calls ALL the replicants by the nickname "Love". It's not her name, it's just a generic nickname Wallace calls the replicants (and by extension, her). She wants DESPERATELY to be important, so her whole character is wrapped up in trying to please and get the attention of Wallace, it's her whole identity, even taking the nickname he calls everyone as her own name so she can lie to herself about how important she is. She wanted to be special and is so wrapped up in her lies she would instinctively lash out at those who WERE special (or she perceived as such). K in comparison also wants deep down to be special, to be more then just a replicant, it's why he works hard to make "Joi" seem more human, it's why he bites so hard on the possibility he was birthed (meaning he had a soul). However in the end, just before the final showdown he's confronted by the ad for Joi, and it all comes together in his head, when she (the ad) calls him by that same nickname his Joi used to call him (see the similarity with wallace and love?)... In the end he faces the truth. He's not special, joi never loved him, but was programed to make him feel like he was loved, and so he goes into his final battle at peace with the fact that he'll never be special. But he also makes an independent choice. He decides instead of killing Deckard like he was asked, like a good automaton should, he brings Deckard together with his daughter. He creates something real, rather then destroy, and dies. It's a lovely if understated tragedy.
    1900
  1137. Strike first strike hard No mercy and Go away NOW!!!
    1900
  1138. I loved that this Godzilla was more of a villain rather than some likeable menace.
    1900
  1139. Indiana Jones rode off into sunset in the Last Crusade. It was a beautiful and moving ending to a wonderful trilogy. Nothing exists beyond that.
    1900
  1140. Ella Purnell is good actor but Walton Goggins really is killing it out there. He's basically only played in good shows and movies for a while now, his acting has become something truly special.
    1900
  1141. Love these 'Production Hell' episodes. GODSPEED, DRINKER!
    1900
  1142. As a grizzled, cynical, middle aged grumpy bastard, I was entertained way more than I had any right to be...
    1900
  1143. One wig to rule them all. One wig to hide him. One wig to fool them all. And now they can not find him.
    1900
  1144. Sounds like they played it safe with the horror/gore elements but given that I have heard nothing about it being made for 'modern audiences' and it is making bank at the box office after a same day release on peacock makes me smile. Imagine that, being respectful to the built in audience can make your movie successful. Who could have predicted such a thing?
    1900
  1145. I just appreciate that these movies are helping remove the stigma that animated films can’t be emotionally powerful and enjoyable to all audiences. I’m still annoyed the Oscar’s have a animated section as if it’s a genre when it’s really a medium for any genre.
    1900
  1146. The only joy found in discussing Holdo in SW is discussing Leadership and Command in Crimson Tide. Well played Drinker, well played!
    1900
  1147. Holy shit. Dude, congrats on this one! I would pay at least $100 to watch a movie as good as Gladiator right now.
    1900
  1148. Just because they needed thus to retain the movie rights doesn't mean it couldn't have been good. Real missed opportunity to show up Amazon.
    1900
  1149. Every action movie features Keanu, Chris Pratt (He’s a banger in The Terminal List), Chris Hemsworth, and Tom Cruise makes me hyped and interested. Thank God this sequel delivers
    1900
  1150. Jeremy Renner is priceless in this interview. :)
    1900
  1151. Disney: "YOU TURNED EVERYONE AGAINST ME!" Gina Carano: "You have done that yourself!"
    1900
  1152. Imagine going through a horror game known for horrifying monsters and finding a female villain character who looks hotter than that One "girl" from the last of us 2.
    1900
  1153. it's getting to the point where I am shocked when I am not disappointed
    1900
  1154. Lady Dimitrescu was such a phenomenal design that there is no way Capcom wasn't going to leave us disappointed by her lack of use.
    1900
  1155. The way princes Ariel kicked Eric in the balls and shouted: ''This is for all the mansplaining that I have endured", and when Eric says: ''You are right, you are absolutely right, I am so sorry, I have wronged you, I should have had checked my white privilege before meeting you'', were truly the most inspiring moments I have ever seen from a Disney film. A 10/10.
    1900
  1156. Man the practical effects used in this film outperforms many CGI based films today
    1900
  1157. Who'd have thought, a Hollywood celebrity that isn't a vapid narcissist and is actually an interesting, down to earth person to talk to. Well done on the interview.
    1900
  1158. Honestly, the fact that at this point in time a super hero character in a movie is having a son and not a daughter is a miracle in itself.
    1900
  1159. R Lee Ermey was the PERFECT person for his role, and he got a whole career out of that performance. Really great stuff.
    1900
  1160. Ah yes. Games workshop saw wizards of the coast, Netflix (Witcher) and Lucas film and was like we want to fail in under a year too!
    1900
  1161. The reaction to the Rey movie confirms that Star Wars fans have reached peak apathy.
    1900
  1162. I was screaming internally during the movie, "Just find her a reality where her kids have no Wanda, easy" I'm glad you had the same thought Mr. Drinker, thanks for the video as always
    1900
  1163. To prevent brain damage, I just watch the Drinker review instead of watching the show
    1900
  1164. Movie executive: "people don't like our sci-fi movies" Advisor 1: "cut out the wokeness, get a smart deep script with good actors" Executive: "no can do and you're fired." Advisor 2: "ok then, dump a 100 million on it, hire J-Lo and get the characters to say "AI" a few hundred times." Executive: "great job"
    1900
  1165. Why didn't Nebula turn off her WIFI? She should have known better.
    1900
  1166. I spend more time watching these awful companies fail than I do watching their content. Keep doing what you do, Drinker!
    1900
  1167. Not just murdering a teenager, not just any student, no, this is his own nephew, son of his twin sister and best friend for crying out loud!
    1800
  1168. I honestly stop caring about the MCU after Avengers: Endgame, the climax of the entire series that was building up to it for over a decade. Everything about Phase 4 Marvel seems more like a post script season in comparison.
    1800
  1169. To my genuine, absolute shock, that basic plot concept idea you gave ACTUALLY DOESN'T SOUND THAT BAD. I'm surprised. VERY surprised. It's a... reasonable sounding concept. Of course, it would've been utterly butchered and probably would've flopped completely; but y'know.
    1800
  1170. DC should make a movie about their archnemesis, Continuity.
    1800
  1171. The worst crime of the show is wasting Ed Harris.
    1800
  1172. "How dare you compare me to Rey" - a plank of wood.
    1800
  1173. "But you know what does matter, Jaime? Ten thousand tonnes of collapsing masonry, my son. Thus, the dramatic irony of this scene, you see: after a lifetime of walking in and out of buildings, they ultimately get killed by one" Far better creative writing than that of the 8 season. I chocked laughing.
    1800
  1174. We don't want strong female characters and we don't want strong male characters - we want Strong Characters that are able to stand independent of their gender. We do not want ideologies forced down our throats👍😁
    1800
  1175. 3:50, people are still talking about District 9 even today. Props to you, Drinker. That was a genuinely good movie.
    1800
  1176. Thank you. Too many people have been calling this season "quality" and it just didn't sit right with me week after week.
    1800
  1177. I love the Drinker’s takes usually, but I seriously doubt Hollywood has learned anything from last year’s failures. Those people seriously value The Message over making quality entertainment, and would rather die than change for the better.
    1800
  1178. Mark Hamill is brilliant in this show. Also, just because you're kind and innocent doesn't mean you'll be spared which is a nice change from the norm. The devil will have her due.
    1800
  1179. Holy crap this one snuck up on me. Completely worth seeing in the theater. A great dad role. A positive male role model. If you like cars, ever played GT, or just want a good story that mostly happened, then what a great ride it is. I expected nothing and was given everything, it was great.
    1800
  1180. what only a few realize is that when a franchise does something like this that means its on its last leg and the ip is done after this
    1800
  1181. Criticising other people’s work is one thing but having the balls to have a shot at it yourself is extremely admirable. I really hope it does well or I hope it at least gives him a good start in the industry.
    1800
  1182. Great review and many thanks for the minimal spoilers since I plan on seeing it either this weekend or on Monday :)
    1800
  1183. Rest in Peace, Bill Paxton and Philip Seymour Hoffman. If both were still alive, they could have popped up in cameos.
    1800
  1184. Really wish Hollywood or just modern writers, in general, would actually take notes from this show. You CAN have female and diverse characters be actual characters with motivations and weaknesses and show them getting their asses kicked just as much as the guys and still have them be strong independent leads. Arcane is everything people want when they ask for "show, don't tell", and I really hope this sets a precedent for better storytelling in future movies and shows.
    1800
  1185. Voyager is 100 times the show that STD was/is
    1800
  1186. Rachel Z. is about to find out what it's like to star in a box office bomb. That's Hollywood, baby!
    1800
  1187. I couldn't wait for this show....so I could watch Ryan George's Pitch Meeting on it.
    1800
  1188. Hear no Caesar Speak no Caesar See no Caesar
    1800
  1189. The scene between Purrito and Puss, when he was having a panic attack, was so unbelievably close to what an actual panic attack feels like and how one can snap out of it by having just a single person be there to tell you "Hey, you're not dying. It's gonna be alright, just breathe." As someone who has dealt with it in the past, seeing it being represented in a serious and heartfelt manner made me tear up.
    1800
  1190. God bless you for sacrificing hours of your life to watch this garbage so we don't have to. You're a hero of the people, Drinker. 🍻
    1800
  1191. Classic Star Trek is like Pizza. Even when it's bad, you can still enjoy it.
    1800
  1192. That scene where that general didn’t want to bomb Kyoto because his wife and him vacationed there is far more haunting than any schmaltzy depiction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki could’ve ever been. Nolan’s cold, precise, and technically focused style of filmmaking was the perfect fit for this movie.
    1800
  1193. "What happened to them?" They're *OLD*. Al Pacino is 83. Robert De Niro is 80. Father Time is undefeated, bro. It will happen to us, too.
    1800
  1194. It's in the title "shadow of Tomb Raider" as in shadow of its former self.
    1800
  1195. The trailer was self aware in those first few seconds saying we shouldn't trust them; thanks for the honesty Disney
    1800
  1196. “I am become Drinker. The destroyer of dreams” That should be his new slogan 😂
    1800
  1197. Rey: "I bypassed the Hero's Journey."
    1800
  1198. Man, that's some dark shit, that I would absolutely never want to watch. But that one line is a perfect summation of a certain modern view that thinks that people are basically good, and we all should just get along. "Why are you doing this?" "Because you let me". Simple as that. Evil doesn't respect anything but strength. You want peace? You better be ready and willing to fight for it.
    1800
  1199. Nice to see a film that’s fueled with testosterone in 2019
    1800
  1200. The "not economically viable" scene hits harder and harder every year. A man who did everything right gets arrested the day he stops being "useful". This happens too frequently IRL.
    1800
  1201. The Skywalker saga already had a resolution. It's called Return of the Jedi.
    1700
  1202. Thor Love and Thunder made me realize just how good the first Thor film from 2011 was.
    1700
  1203. “A bigger contradiction in terms than referring to James Corden as an entertainer” made me laugh harder than Jonah Jameson in Spider Man 3 😂
    1700
  1204. The protagonist really feels like real life batman honestly. Smart, notices small things, understands how people work and can beat the shit out of you
    1700
  1205. This is the epitome of "FINE! I'LL DO IT MYSELF!"
    1700
  1206. "...That's all I've got for this year, go away now." This line was a more impactful subversion of my expectations than anything Hollywood has done in recent memory.
    1700
  1207. Martin’s problem is that there’s nobody left in Hollywood to tell him “no.” Hence, the pompous 3 1/2 hour slogs like this and “The Irishman.”
    1700
  1208. Critically Drinker: "Scottish people are the best at stabbing others with their swords" Me: "Now I know why you are Tatiana's favorite"
    1700
  1209. How is it that The Drinker can deliver "...go away now!" every time with a completely different delivery and emotional impact. His is a rare talent that deserves far more praise.
    1700
  1210. If I went back to the 80s and told myself one day there will be an Indiana Jones movie I would never watch. My 80s self would have said. "What kind of Hell am I living!"
    1700
  1211. This was Todd Philip's "humiliation ritual"
    1700
  1212. Here's where you're wrong drinker, you can't lose what you never had in the first place
    1700
  1213. To Tolkien We’re so sorry for what’s been done to your creation. We know you’ll never get an apology from Hollywood, so hopefully this will suffice. Signed, Humanity
    1700
  1214. Still no clue how a franchise that started as a goofy 2000s movie about illegal street racing turned into Diet Marvel
    1700
  1215. I swear to god if I get a notification from netflix saying Rebel Moon part 3 is coming soon I will officially give up on cinema.
    1700
  1216. The villain gets blown up in a fireworks factory in a plot point straight out of a Foghorn Leghorn cartoon - great job guys, way to make a grounded and realistic thriller you joined AMZPKK too?
    1700
  1217. Sad how the "creators" of this remake thought to themselves..."this is a pretty good movie, only it could use a bit of girl bossing at the end to make it great".. American film making is dead.
    1700
  1218. I get more and more glad that I stumbled onto this channel with every upload. Your brand of snark and carefree hatred speaks to me on a spiritual level.
    1700
  1219. “If this movie had been made in 2020, he’d have taken her name!” No Drinker, if this movie had been made in 2020, she’d have taken his gun and killed all the terrorists herself, while John McClain wallowed in a corner, learning valuable life lessons about “Respecting Wahmen” and “Ending Patriarchy”.
    1700
  1220. The odd thing is that ASL requires a ton of facial expression along with the actual signs, yet Echo manages to keep that blank expression the entire time.
    1700
  1221. There are two kinds of people: Those who think Die Hard is a Christmas movie and those who are wrong.
    1700
  1222. This isn’t even ironically funny anymore, just a waste of time and money that could be used on much better shows. Smallville done it 100 times better almost 2 decades ago...
    1700
  1223. Team America World Police’s portrayal of celebrities and there malignant narcissism is now more accurate than ever.
    1700
  1224. Yes!!!! Finally the Drinker watches one of the most original approaches to the zombie genre.
    1700
  1225. No matter how it turns out, the fact that he's had one of his books make it into an actual production is worth applauding.
    1700
  1226. Fucking finally someone's talking about this show.
    1700
  1227. I recently saw a TikTok video where a guy said The Breakfast Club has not aged well because of “the crotch shot”. That’s right, a film about five students that come together as strangers and leave as friends after opening up to each other about suicide, depression, peer pressure, parental neglect and abuse and directed by one of the greatest filmmakers of the 80’s if not all time has not aged well because of a three second panty shot.
    1700
  1228. The way Dutch went from being the hunter of the guerrillas to the hunted by the predator and then rose up back to being the hunter of the predator is so badass! I wish there were more movies like this.
    1700
  1229. Thought provoking narratives: Offer up a moral conundrum, and have a character choose one of these 2 evils, with the immediate and far reaching consequences being left up to the player to ponder upon whether the decision made was the right one. Uninspired and boring narratives: Revenge bad. Why revenge bad? Gigantor get revenge, then revenge good. But other girl get revenge? No good. Revenge mean lose fingers, no play guitar and wife take baby. Revenge. Bad.
    1700
  1230. 11:54 - "It's Forced, It's Dumb, It's Irrelevant..." Me: Its JJ Abrams....
    1700
  1231. I have been in a wheelchair since I was 13 after being hit by a drunk driver when I was walking home from school. I'm 42 now. In that time, I have had met great people in my support group with different disabilities AND some really evil ones. Like their disabilities really messed them up and they hate everything and everyone in life. Davros should not be changed and it's insulting to think anyone who is disabled sees him as any representative of the community. He is an evil creature that happens to be in a type of wheelchair. The wheelchair does not define him, and it does not define me. I find it beyond insulting that creators think I am so emotionally and mentally weak that I can see a villian from my community. You know what really ticks us off? Treating us like we are broken and need kid gloves when around us! We are tougher than most of you. I want to see heroes and villians who don't hold back that both inspire or horrorify. They explore disabilities enough in fantasy. Its always the positive fake inspiration message that annoys the hell out of us. The reality is when you can't walk or do things like normal people, it does have an impact on you. Seeing how someone DOES NOT cope well with their disablity maybe unsettling storytelling that is easier brushed away due to YOUR discomfort, but I see it as important as making a hero out of a disability. You see how if you don't take care of yourself or let the disability overtake your mind with insecurities fear, hate, and other self destructive feelings that you can end up like this villian. That is as valuable of a story to my community as the annoying Mary Sue wheelchair characters we are forced to put up with. The reality is my life is good but not easy. I go through the entire emotional gamut. If you only see the happy times in my life, then you are not seeing the whole experience. There are times I go through some dark periods and treat people horribly. Like when my Dad died, I could not spread his ashes on this mountain side he loved. I was good friends and family in my life that reflected back (literally recordig me on their cell phone when I went off on a poor waitress for example), and showed me how I was acting to get me back on track. My point is seeing negative images can have a positive effect. Don't treat me like I'm broken. I am just a person like you with the same blessings and burdens to endure.
    1700
  1232. "Captain Marvel doesn't get to ruin it." That's all I wanted to know. Thanks for that lol
    1700
  1233. Me, wiping away a single tear: “I will, Drinker. I will go away now.”
    1700
  1234. 'We're leaving.' Most reasonable line in any horror movie ever.
    1700
  1235. Namor casually giving Shuri a water suit of someone he probably killed painfully and removed their body from was pretty morbidly funny
    1700
  1236. So the Federation which was meant to be Roddenberry’s dream of a post-racist humanity is now engulfed with anti-Romulan xenophobia because of Trump and Brexit? Kay.
    1700
  1237. This show is beyond disrespectful to Tolkien’s legacy
    1700
  1238. Little Finger: Chaos is a ladder. Bran: Wrong; it's a wheelchair accessible ramp.
    1700
  1239. As a wise man once said: "Id rather entertain you the wrong way than not entertain you at all"
    1700
  1240. Somewhat surprised Ryan’s last words to his team weren’t, “Anyway, that’s all we’ve got for today. Go away now.” 😅
    1700
  1241. Friday March 8th is national alita battle angel day so go watch a real hero
    1700
  1242. "We want a Strong, independent, freethinking Woman!" Gina Carano "NOT THAT KIND! CANCEL HER!!"
    1700
  1243. I was contemplating buying this game so looked at the reviews. All the reviews in IGN etc. very super positive. So I looked up YouTube and found a review from the drinker and thanks to him I’ve saved some coin. I’m gonna buy the original though.
    1700
  1244. "Cut down all these trees so everyone can see how beautiful the forest is" - Hollywood
    1700
  1245. The modern Tomb Raider games have a huge disconnect between cutscenes and gameplay. In the cutscenes she's fragile and vulnerable as you mentioned, but in gameplay she's like a slasher villain taking down the enemies one by one, cutting their throats or killing them in other horrible ways with her pickaxe, then committing genocide with an entire village, etc. She's a total killer. While the original game tells more the atmosphere trough gameplay, which is all more aligned with actual tomb... raiding.
    1600
  1246. Lol did the Oscars already happen? I used to watch it, back in the day when it was still about movies. Pornhub can make a parody of Oscars, with lots of circle jerk and blowing each other on the stage. That would have higher ratings anyway. At least it would be honest.
    1600
  1247. Without Tomb Raider being in the title I would’ve not known that was Lara Croft in the thumbnail
    1600
  1248. The lighthouse was a masterpiece. The northman is Robert eggers going bigger and more ambitious with his style. Good to know people are appreciating movies like this
    1600
  1249. This is why Youtuber's are the best celeb interviewers. No BS inflated fake press just a raw, relaxed honest interview. 1000 thumbs up TCD!
    1600
  1250. -Arkham Batman getting killed off in the most bs way possible -Peter getting replaced as the main Spider-Man Political Activists disguised as Political activists: “why are our games failing?!”
    1600
  1251. The movie is called Damsel and it came out in 2024 on Netflix. With that information alone, you can predict everything about it - the plot, the setting, ThE MeSsAgE, the characters - everything.
    1600
  1252. R Lee Ermey’s “anti-PC” insults are a thing of legend
    1600
  1253. "I dont want lunch. I want breakfast."
    1600
  1254. The numernorians saying elves took our jobs was and still is one of the dumbest epic scenes in history!
    1600
  1255. I know I'm not the only one to say this, but The Rings of Power series makes The Hobbit Trilogy look like a masterpiece.
    1600
  1256. Adding Cole to the epic fight between Scorpion and Sub-Zero was a senseless buzz-kill.
    1600
  1257. There's nothing quite like dry, Scottish sarcasm.
    1600
  1258. Raul Julia, the only man that realized street fighter was a comedy, RIP
    1600
  1259. A few minutes scene where Emily Blunt Character stood up for Oppenheimer in that tiny court room showed more power and intelligence than all the mary sue(s) in the past decade combined... including Barbie
    1600
  1260. Can we please acknowledge the "hero moment" where the Barbies use emotional manipulation and infidelity to get what they want actually makes them the bad guys?
    1600
  1261. This movie was funnier than a lot of modern “comedy” movies
    1600
  1262. That idea that people with disabilities CAN'T be evil is one of the most insulting things I've ever heard. Here's the thing about people with disabilities; they're people. They can be good or bad, but most likely, they're somewhere in between. Treating them with kids gloves is exactly what most of them despise. Hell, South Park got praise because Jimmy and Timmy were always just treated like regular kids.
    1600
  1263. Skeleton Crew did more world building in the first 15 minutes than the acolyte did all season! It's charming so far.
    1600
  1264. just hoping this isn't a 'soon I will have a new apprentice, one far younger and more powerful'
    1600
  1265. the fact that there are no jokes in the trailer is already a profit
    1600
  1266. My wife wonders why I watch nothing but 80s and 90s classics. THIS IS WHY
    1600
  1267. A villain being so far up his own ass that he literally has his own traveling orchestra to hype him up us actually such a cool concept. But unfortunately it's terribly executed here.
    1600
  1268. I really liked that part in the first movie where some guy tries to hit on her and she hurts him. A superhero abusing her power against a normal man all because she didn't like what he said. That's what real heroes do.
    1600
  1269. You have to be amused by the modern contradiction that Lara Croft has been turned into a strong female character...by making her physically and emotionally weaker. Must be my outdated definition of the word 'strong'.
    1600
  1270. I've been reading user reviews stating this movie as "boring" and "not enough action", which is exactly why I can't wait to see it. I'm done with generic movies that accommodate to the ADHD generation, who think that Alien Romulus is the "best" Alien movie in the franchise, because it has lots of trite easy to follow dialogue and naff CGI action sequences. I'm sure it's not perfect, but it's got to be better than most of the tat that comes out of Hollywood these days.
    1600
  1271. I’m glad you had the GUTS to review this . Most “reviewers “ won’t touch this film because they are afraid of offending their fan base and are just cowards. You can separate the politics and just judge it as a FILM. Thanks.
    1600
  1272. "Nothing takes the sting out of these tough economic times like watching a bunch of millionaires giving golden statues to each other" ~ Billy Crystal
    1600
  1273. Everyone to Hobbit Movie Trilogy: "Perhaps we treated you too harshly."
    1600
  1274. We live in an era where the biggest media corporations keep breaking records of the most awful stuff produceable
    1600
  1275. The fact Marvel’s priority was finding a way for Blade to pass the torch to his daughter in his DEBUT film, rather than focus on him hunting Vampires says it all. The message corrupts everything.
    1600
  1276. I watched this one with my 13 year old Grandson. We had an absolute blast. We started the movie by accident when we clicked the wrong title on Netflix... And were hooked. It's awesome, my inebriated reviewer!!
    1600
  1277. YESSSSS LONG DRINKLER
    1600
  1278. Harrison Ford while filming Brave New World: “Let’s shoot this piece of shit.”

  1279. "We want to eat your brains" - Agreed Venom, agreed.
    1600
  1280. As you reviewed this film and I noticed scenes that were new to me.... I realized I must have fallen asleep watching
    1600
  1281. Drinker: " Is it the older films that driving the excitement of this movie." Me: Green Goblin Laugh.
    1600
  1282. Chris Redfield didn't go missing. Nobody just bothered to look into a gym conveniently attached to a steroid factory.
    1500
  1283. The angriest "GO AWAY NOW!" yet. Good job Amazon, you really fucked things up if the Drinker is this mad
    1500
  1284. Thanks, Drinker, this video hit the mark - far beyond the scope of movies.
    1500
  1285. Spider-Man needs to be the new face of the MCU. Not Captain Marvel.
    1500
  1286. i like how their version of "dramatic acting" is just yelling really loud
    1500
  1287. In every cynic there's a disappointed idealist. I forgot the Critical Drinker actually likes movies and this was the best review I've seen so far for Everything Everywhere. Appreciate the work you put in, dog.
    1500
  1288. Robert Downey Jr. cast as Darth Vader should fix this
    1500
  1289. Tom Cruise never misses. Seeing him save action cinema pleasing the audience and without woke politics is always a delight. Hope it makes a billion.
    1500
  1290. Captain Creatively Bankrupt.
    1500
  1291. She went from literally defeating the God of War in an epic battle taking place in the midst of WW1, To giving a shit speech.
    1500
  1292. I call him Helen Kellebrimbor because he's deaf and blind to everything that's happening around him.
    1500
  1293. When asked for input on the movie the real Kevin Von Erich just said "The thing I care about most is that people know how much my brothers and I loved each other." I think he would approve.
    1500
  1294. An American remake that misses the point? I am shocked 😂
    1500
  1295. On another note, I like to think the reason why the grain is so important to the empire is because Zack read/watched Dune before making Rebel Moon and thought "Hey, that Spice stuff is pretty cool. Let's put it in my movie as well, but a bit different." He who controls the grain, controls the universe. This is probably not the case, but we're talking about Zack Snyder, so everything is possible.
    1500
  1296. Sony could have just made a spiderman vs venom movie
    1500
  1297. I dragged my dad along, who was apprehensive about seeing a kids' movie, but I had heard good things and we have a habit of seeing movies together to critique them and I saw him fall in love with The Last Wish in real time. We both had a blast, it's an instant classic.
    1500
  1298. I'm a girl and I totally LOVED the trilogy with Legend, Anniversary, and Underworld. I might have been a little late for the Tomb Raider series, I haven't played the previous games, still, I was almost instantly hooked on Legend. I actually loved her outfits and it never bothered me that she always looked sexy. Just the opposite, it showed me that I don't have to be the typical girly girl to be attractive. She's become one of my greatest role models. When the new series came out, I haven't played it because I wasn't attracted when I saw the trailers, I watched a walkthrough, it instantly seemed like a disappointment. I think the video greatly summarizes the problems. I would like to add, that in the new series, they basically took away her sexiness, inside and outside, and made a neutral character. The acrobatic moves were my favorite things in the games I played. In the new games (2013 and up), she could easily be replaced by a male character. Sorry to say that, feminists ruined the game.
    1500
  1299. Movie of the year 2019 hands down for me. They actually took time for character development and emotion? They actually made you understand and feel what he's going through? They actually gave a damn about the script and story? Made you consider both sides and that everything isn't simple black and white?! What witchcraft is this?! No wonder SJWs left the theater saying they were terrified.
    1500
  1300. The woman is the hero? Damn, I didn't see THAT one coming......
    1500
  1301. With recommendations for both Godzilla Minus One and Blue Eyed Samurai, it warms my dead heart to see the Drinker end an otherwise abysmal year on such a positive note. 🍻
    1500
  1302. You forgot to mention that Rey can somehow converse with Chewbacca even though she's probably never seen a Wookie in her life.
    1500
  1303. Gotta love how they waited until the last two episodes before the plot got going
    1500
  1304. Being sandwiched between John Wick 4 and the Mario Bros movie, the misinterperted marketing articles on making men dumb, and also the controversy on Dungeons and Dragons board game corperation as a whole has hurt this movies chance for a box office. Let see how damaging it is.
    1500
  1305. Thank You Drinker for keeping it simple and to the pint. Oh. Point. Seriously thanks again for a year of great videos and fun commentary. Here’s to 2025.
    1500
  1306. The one single time they have an actual strong woman in a show and she gets canceled.
    1500
  1307. That kiss with Rose Tiko still makes me cringe so hard.
    1500
  1308. The worst thing I find about the dialog at 2:54 is the complete shutdown of the questioning of the name 'Lost Boys'. She makes a good point of saying you're not all boys so why call yourselves 'lost boys'. The counter argument is just an aggressive 'so?' and based on that single word alone Wendy shuts down her curiosity and thinking brain and just says 'it doesnt matter' what a wonderful thing to teach kids!
    1500
  1309. I've always said that the "problematic" aspects of Bond are the things that make him so bloody good at his job. He is a sociopathic cold blooded killer and doesn't really care who he fucks or fucks over to get the job done. He just does it with a fuck ton of style....
    1500
  1310. There are two fundamental problems with this movie. The first is that it's not the movie we - or History Buffs to be specific- wanted it to be. We wanted to see the young, ambitious, cunning, intelligent, brilliant Corsican officer rise to become Emperor using his wits and talents. We wanted to see his genius in planning battles and why his men followed him to the bitter end. We wanted to see the political climber who used lies and manipulation to claw his way to the top and stay there. We even wanted to see the Liberal reformer who made many compromises in realising his agenda for France. However, Scott wasn't interested in any of that. He wanted to tell a much more personal tale of Napoleon and Josephine, showing the world through their eyes and romance. An interesting angle but ok. That then brings us into the second problem with the movie as it fails spectacularly at that too. Who is Napoleon? Who is Josephine? Why do they love each other? Why does she cheat on him and why can't he let her go? Why are they so obsessed with each other and what draws them to each other? I sure as hell can't tell you based on the text of the film. We're never given any of the details to help us understand who they are, why they're drawn together and why it's tragic when circumstances force them apart. We just don't understand or care about them as we're never given the time to as so much attention is spent on battles and the political moves of Napoleon which, again, also aren't very well developed so rather than being a deep dive into Napoleon is instead a jumbled, confused, unfocused mess. And what's so frustrating is that all of the pieces are there! Phoenix and Kirby could have been great, the set pieces are spectacular, the movie in general looks gorgeous and with more time or a better script, could have been great. Really, I think Josephine should have been the main character. Call it "The Emperor's Wife" or something and frame it through her eyes, so no battles or politics, just show how she viewed him on her own. That's the only way it could have worked. Cos trying to do ALL this, and for a theatrical cut? It was as doomed for failure as invading Russia.
    1500
  1311. I'm surprised they didn't rename it to Watchwomen or Watchpeople since it's 2019
    1500
  1312. I still remember how during 'Commando,' Arnold's character John Matrix was originally supposed to have sex with one of the stewardesses when he was aboard the airplane after knocking out the guy that had taken him there at gunpoint. Keep in mind that John Matrix is about as shallow as the name implies. He's a vessel for action-violence with a single motivation for doing so. His character traits pretty much boil down to 'badass soldier that loves his daughter.' But when Arnold was told that Matrix would take a break form rescuing his kidnapped daughter to join the mile high club? He put his foot down. It didn't matter that he would be stuck on the plane for a static amount of time no matter what. He said that he couldn't see Matrix doing that because not only would it break from his character, but it would damage the audience's opinion of him. Imagine if Brie Larson had half the self-awareness and character understanding as Arnold Schwarzenegger during 'Commando.' Hell, imagine if she had reacted to the situation with the Don (even the original version where she just robs him) by trading some Kree technological trinket for his bike after showing him how much it's capable of. It wouldn't even need to be much. It could basically just be an iPhone that combines radio, phone, TV, etc in a single package. Hell-2, it's the 90s. Just being able to pick up internet on something so small would be insane. There could be a postcredit scene where SHIELD buys it off him, helping to explain their technology level even given Howard Stark's death.
    1500
  1313. I think the 12 year old Ahsoka kid could totally carry a show... She was more animated and passionate in her 5 minutes, than Dawson can muster in 8 episodes.
    1500
  1314. Lying to Ellie was wrong. Not that it really matters because she knew it was a lie anyway despite what Neil Druckmann's disaster retcon says.
    1500
  1315. Saying Rings of Power, as a whole in its entirety, is an insult to Tolkien and his legacy is the largest understatement that I've heard all year so far.
    1500
  1316. You forgot "Skyscraper", Die Hard in a building. Wait...
    1500
  1317. The one positive of Season 8. I found The Critical Drinker on Youtube. Everything I wished for after season 1 came tr000
    1500
  1318. I’ve actually reached the point where anything that has JJ Abrams associated with it is an instant ‘I’ll pass’ for me.
    1500
  1319. Justice for Justin Baldoni it seems
    1500
  1320. Michael Keaton still has an insane amount of energy to reprise a role he played 36 years previously, and he's in his 70s now. He only had about 17.5 minutes of screentime in the original 92 minute film.
    1500
  1321. It's a rare thing to have a show made these day's that's actually competently written and acted. Hope we get more like it going forward.
    1400
  1322. To be fair, the whole Netflix team should thank the lever living hell out of the Chad Henry Cavill, because he literally knew the source material and constantly changing the script to grab the perfect Polish Fantasy experience
    1400
  1323. Ohh yes! The best kind of scientists in movies: the stupid ones.
    1400
  1324. I watched dozens of Barbie vids with my daughter. In those vids Barbie was always a self-sacrificing, non-judgemental, loving, strong, tolerant and very feminine character. Her strength was in her personality and wisdom. Modern films like this are all about extreme narcissism and a self-centered hatred toward the last remaining unprotected class. 114 minutes of Femsplaining.
    1400
  1325. My wife and I were literally just saying that this season is too all over the place. There are 5 story lines going on each episode. 3 of which we don’t care about. Hughie and his dad. Kimiko and her past. Frenchie and his boyfriend. DONT CARE. Why they added all this shit is beyond me.
    1400
  1326. This movie is an Expendable.
    1400
  1327. I mean, the only credit i give the Rings of Power that Youtuber basically get infinite content to make.
    1400
  1328. Fun Fact: Darkseid came first, and Marvel copied DC's homework to create Thanos. Thanos is Darkseid 2.0, not the other way around.
    1400
  1329. Old Lara is best, she actually had a personality and she was fun.
    1400
  1330. Kano was by far the most entertaining character.
    1400
  1331. A toast for you - not just for Drinker - for ALL of you, from a Russian person in Ireland! Cheers, and let's try our best!
    1400
  1332. I'd say that Stallone was so great in Rocky because of the struggle he went through just trying to get the damn movie made. He even had to sell his dog - which he eventually got back (that's the dog he gets in the movie). I'm certain that the way his life was going at the time had a huge impact on his performance. Not to mention he wrote the script. Stallone poured his heart in this movie, and it definitely deserved the Oscar for Best Picture.
    1400
  1333. Honestly, the fact that they even let Deadpool swear like a sailor and mock current Marvel just shows how much Ryan Reynolds gets the fans frustrations and you know it burned Disney/Marvel’s ass letting him say that Even I know this won’t save the MCU, but at the same time it’s just something everyone; whether your a Marvel fan, a Deadpool fan, an X-Men fan, or just a casual viewer; have been waiting for years to see And if this truly is a love letter to the beginning of the superhero movies of the 2000’s, honestly I’m all for that
    1400
  1334. The first rule of Light Club is we don't talk about Light Club.
    1400
  1335. “Well it wasn’t as bad as I thought” is pretty much how I sum up every movie I watch these days.
    1400
  1336. Says A LOT about Hollywood and media when they are against an anti child trafficking movie.
    1400
  1337. It's not terrible!* * For now.
    1400
  1338. They revisit classics without understanding the soul or creativity that made people consider them classics.
    1400
  1339. I feel about the same with this coming season as I do looking at gas station sushi.
    1400
  1340. Kathleen Kennedy basically used SW to lash out against the fans and all the pent up anger she felt over the years
    1400
  1341. I never thought I’d one day lose literally all interest in Star Wars.
    1400
  1342. Character development triumphs over CGI
    1400
  1343. "Tonight I walk with my brothers." It's amazing how The Iron Claw managed to get 0 award recognition, quite genuinely one of the greatest movies of the year with the best lead performance of the decade so far in Zac Efron.
    1400
  1344. he has plans to do 5-6 more sequels.. it’s not gonna stop 😭😭
    1400
  1345. 99.99% of companies would be thrilled to have free advertising, but not SBI.
    1400
  1346. The Menu is what happens when a writer, director and actors come together to make something that will entertain for its sake and not to tick off a huge checklist to please the modern audience.
    1400
  1347. You poor bastards that never played the game have no idea what’s waiting for you…
    1400
  1348. In an alternate universe, Tatiana has a youtube channel about movies and the Drinker is dancing in a club.
    1400
  1349. Critical Drinker is one step closer to landing his own Netflix deal: The Lager King
    1400
  1350. Charlie Cox is a superb Daredevil. I'm glad it's coming back
    1400
  1351. Not to mention Bucky is a super soldier... like Captain America. Falcon is just a guy with a vibranium shield.
    1400
  1352. this video was so refreshing to watch. been waiting for someone to point out how childish things have gotten lately, or even just someone to notice it happening at all.
    1400
  1353. One of the best things of season 8 was finding your channel
    1400
  1354. It really is a shame how modern Hollywood has ruined the term “Deconstruction.” A term that once meant “what are interesting logical conclusions of this trope” has devolved into “what are ways that we can make classics look like shit.”
    1400
  1355. Remember when there was a studio system where they would build up actors into stars and train them on how to present themselves in public? This is why.
    1400
  1356. Don’t forget that every woman storm trooper fought only men and threw them around and Lady Loki only fought men storm troopers killing every one of them. Oh yeah and didn’t take the first punch too.
    1400
  1357. This whole movie felt like an excuse to bring back Chris Pine.
    1400
  1358. The only thing more sick than the new Predator movie is watching people defend it.
    1400
  1359. We live in a world where Amazon thinks orks can now have families.........
    1400
  1360. Videos like this are exactly why I trust and respect your views. You didn't avoid talking about the film, you didn't insult it for doing something controversial, and you didn't give it unmitigated praise just because it had things you agreed with in it. This felt like a very fair review and it was still an entertaining watch.
    1400
  1361. Smug? Guyladriel, the girlboss? It's basically her defining characteristic, and I guarantee the writers of Rings of Power are damn proud of that.
    1400
  1362. Disney Star Wars: "Its a success!" Star Wars Fans: "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means..."
    1400
  1363. Let's not forget The Boy and the Heron winning a oscar. Not everyone might be into animation too much but, it was a huge win for hand drawn animation. Since Disney usually takes awards away from these kinda movies, it was so nice to see.
    1400
  1364. The fact that the sweet baby inc detected group hit 100k followers under 3 days is incredible.
    1400
  1365. Lmao at Jon snow becoming an extra that plays a very confused guy who occassionally says "My Queen" 😂😂😂
    1400
  1366. When The Drinker starts using big words when he criticizes you, you know you’ve goofed up big time.
    1400
  1367. "People can laugh at themselves if it's entertaining and funny enough" That is why south park is so good, it make fun of everyone to the point where we can all laugh at it.
    1400
  1368. "Avatar 2 looked nice, but it was as intellectually engaging as Teletubbies" Drinker's commentary is a gift that keeps on giving
    1400
  1369. Birds of Prey: How to Make Harley Quinn Completely Unlikable and Utterly Insufferable

  1370. Disney: Brie Larson is an role model of a strong woman Gina Carano: I’m a world famous MMA fighter and can fire back even harder if need be it if verbal harassment comes this way.Also always honest with everyone and not afraid to speak my mind. Disney: your fired
    1400
  1371. The whole "this could be you if you anger me" bit just made me lose it🤣🤣🤣
    1400
  1372. Reasons why Furiosa flopped: 1) Ppl aren't going to the movies like they used to and waiting for streaming 2) It's a prequel and Charlize isn't back 3) Ppl want to see Mad Max not Furiosa 4) The only movie ppl are going to see in theater is Deadpool 3
    1400
  1373. ... So is anyone gonna tell Celebrities that people don't really give a sh*t about political opinions?
    1400
  1374. Hollywood today: Let's remake all the old great movies, but update them with lens flare, social justice, and explosions. Also Hollywood today: Stop being critical of our work. If you don't like it you're just mean, racist, sexist, misogynist, or just uneducated. Consume and shut up.
    1400
  1375. Let's just say they made Joel's choice a lot more ambiguous and morally gray than in the game. In the game, the Fireflies knocked him out when he was pumping out Ellie who had drowned in the water, they were not going to return his backpack to him (he found it himself) and even more so to pay him for delivering Ellie with weapons, it was not explained exactly how the vaccine would work and why they could not conduct experiments on Ellie's blood. In the series, Ellie is treated much more carefully, Joel was going to return his things and be paid, how the vaccine works, explained quite realistically. At the same time, Joel kills people who have already surrendered, and not just armed ones (although he spared the nurses). However, in both cases, Ellie was not allowed to make a choice and give consent or refusal. Despite the fact that she is a minor and has not reached the age of consent ... And most importantly, even if the vaccine is administered to all people (which is impossible), it still will not save the world. Millions of infected people who tear and devour people, thousands of cannibals and robbers will not go anywhere, and there will simply not be enough hands and heads to restore the energy grid, the economy and the social system. So summing up, I'm still on the side of Joel.
    1400
  1376. There will NEVER again be a cinematic trilogy as truly epic as the LotR trilogy... and i feel so sorry for anyone who never got to see these masterpieces at the cinema at the time. They were just something else. The extended editions added an extra level to the already fantastic movies. Thank you Peter Jackson, and thank you J R R Tolkien!
    1400
  1377. "A movie whose good bits aren't original and whose original bits aren't good" - The Critical Drinker
    1400
  1378. I think an independent film renaissance is exactly what the public needs at the moment. It’s a good way to detoxify ourselves from all the mindless, big-budget dumpster fires we’ve been relentlessly subjected to.
    1400
  1379. Pretty amazing that Tobin Bell is still doing these, even at 81 years old. Regardless of the varying quality of the films, he’s always committed. I genuinely didn't expect this movie to be as good, and effective, as it was. 👌🔥
    1400
  1380. I can already imagine the studio meeting of this movie Pitch Meeting style, it probably went something like "Get me two of the most likable male actors, a beautiful female actress, the most generic plot possible with lots of generic action and an unnecessarily high dose of contrived double-crossings, put them all in a big mixer, hold it down until it's all a colorless, odorless, insipid sludge ... DONE, now send it out"
    1400
  1381. I just love the fact Hadden Christensen can easily outplay and maneuver Dawson in the fight scenes, when he's only just 2 years younger than her. It's been 20 years and the guy hasn't forgotten his proper training under Lucas😂!
    1300
  1382. What a year... ●The acolyte entire plot. ●Rings of power. ● Boderlands. ●Zack Snyder's dumb scene of the king being killed in rebel moon. What a year.
    1300
  1383. How did they fumble this SO hard...
    1300
  1384. As an artist, looking at that cover makes every single fibre of my creative being shiver and convulse with seismic gag reflexes. Also makes me reconsider my life. Why do I even bother putting in all this time and effort into my work when some fuckwit gains success through the comic-book industries equivalent to taping a banana to a wall.
    1300
  1385. Imagine that "The Marvels" made it through test screenings and this can't. My god this must be a disaster...
    1300
  1386. The lesson I take from that movie is this: George never got a chance to do great things, but he did a million small things that accumulated over time into something great. Everyone's life has an impact, and we ourselves don't always see the impact we have. We can't all be the hero. Some of us have to be the supporting characters who help the heroes become heroes. George was the ultimate supporting character in the story of life.
    1300
  1387. “There was a sequel… Wasn’t as good.” -Joel Miller
    1300
  1388. Imagine if Christopher Nolan was like "Everyone who liked Heath Ledger's Joker is a terrible person". People just enjoy seeing good acting and well written characters. It doesn't mean they look up to that character as an example of how they should live their life.
    1300
  1389. The movie ends with him in the asylum. The same one that it hints to him being sent to when he is talking to his mum. It shows him banging his head off the glass. What if he is always in that room and the flash to him banging his head off the glass is actually a moment of clarity before he is pulled back into the fantasy by his insanity. The movie does a great job of making you question what is real and what is in his head. It hints to two truths! One it all happened as shown or two it was all a bad joke played out in his mind from the asylum. The movie is about the mind of the Joker! should it be anything other than a bad joke. Best film I have seen in a long time.

  1392. "Some muthafuckers are always tryin iceskate uphill." Maybe the most apt statement yet made on the post-2020 world.
    1300
  1393. People are so starved for good movies now, when a good movie comes out they think it's great. I understand.
    1300
  1394. "If you hate it so much, why don't you try making a movie?" Critical Drinker: "Aight bet."
    1300
  1395. Videos like this prove that Drinker will celebrate quality story-writing even when it comes from a source with which he does not politically align. It’s called “integrity” and mainstream critics would do well to develop some of their own.
    1300
  1396. That analogy of "trying to play catchup at a house party" was class. And the Drinker would know. Believe that!
    1300
  1397. "...The half assed anti-capitalism message, from a company that makes literally billions of dollars a year." Alot of that going around lately. Fubar.
    1300
  1398. Disney’s high budgets: “Yes.”
    1300
  1399. Never go full Brietard HAHA!!
    1300
  1400. This movie is what the animated classic Monsters Inc. was all about - " If you can't scare them, make them laugh. "
    1300
  1401. I grew up on TNG and DS9 … Didn’t know how good I had it!
    1300
  1402. Perfect story, acting, production, etc…probably the most well executed movie adaptation ever.
    1300
  1403. Moon Knight should have had Daredevil’s tone with excellent writing to make it work, he was Marvel’s version of Batman in the comics and it’s a shame they did him dirty in this series.
    1300
  1404. The discussion of Steve's sex life proves that these woke writers see greater value in sexual activity than in someone's character and their accomplishments.
    1300
  1405. I was thoroughly impressed with Jackie Earl Haley's performance. He was fantastic as Rorchach.

    1300
  1409. This show makes as much sense as a ginger with cornrows
    1300
  1410. I’m calling it now. The Rey spinoff film will be the Star Wars equivalent to The Marvels.
    1300
  1411. She didn't destroy kings landing, it will be a bustling center of trade next episode.

  1412. Hit the nail on the head like always. Its baffling at how inept their social media is and pretending they know everyone in the Fandom when they don't. Most of us just love Star Wars, not the races, gender, or sexual orientation of its actors. Just Star Wars itself. I miss when it was just about the story and not made up controversy they use for pushing "the message"
    1300
  1413. It’s crazy how realistic everything looks, more than anything made today.
    1300
  1414. The Rings of Power is a show that should never have been made
    1300
  1415. I can’t believe that a Disney film would tank its film by pushing THE MESSAGE and alienating any fan base that it could’ve built to pander to people who won’t watch it
    1300
  1416. The Penguin was one of the few things that actually surprised me on 2024 due to how good it was. And the most mind-blowing part?It was written by a woman. I hope it sets the example on others to prioritize the story before the message.
    1300
  1417. Such a waste of a trilogy. It's just.... nothing... Venom: Stuff Happens Venom: There's a Red One Now and Venom: Wow That's Really Venom
    1300
  1418. I was wondering when he was gonna talk about this dumpster fire.
    1300
  1419. I disagree Big Trouble in Little China taught me you can in fact ride lightning bolts.
    1300
  1420. My wife is excited about this…and she’s a Middle Aged wine mom with a passing interest in superhero movies. Nailed it
    1300
  1421. Be thankful Brie Larson didn't ride in and do it
    1300
  1422. Jeremy Jahns said it best. Disney buying Star Wars is like the Joker in the museum in the Keaton Batman. You've got this beautiful gallery full of lore and you just have your sticky paint covered hands of insanity all over the place.
    1300
  1423. What a decade it has been for cinema. SW, GoT, Dr Who, Ghostbusters, MIB, Terminator, .... What's next? Indiana Jones? Oh yeah, 007 too
    1300
  1424. This looks like the best, worst movie never made.
    1200
  1425. Will Smith is literally the King of the SImps. Imagine defending the woman who cheated on you so many times and showed almost no remorse for it, if any, when she told you about it. After seeing their interview about the "entanglement" thing, you can't convince me that they were in an open relationship, because Will was actually crying during it. I lost all respect for Will Smith.
    1200
  1426. I love when The Drinker does these production hell videos. The one he did on Waterworld is probably the best of them all, and I hope he does more in the future.
    1200
  1427. Cameron admitted himself that the first movie was about the technical prowess and that he was more focused on delivering actual character depth and emotion in this one. So I think the plot will be better in this one. Cameron is known for making great sequels
    1200
  1428. Yah. This movie has lived rent free in my head forever. Just the way the Douglas says, "When did I become the bad guy?" nearly breaks me every time. So good.
    1200
  1429. Saw is always one of the franchises that I would watch at a friends house and then end up traumatized.
    1200
  1430. a super-genius little girlboss, who also just so happens to be a lesbian? that's such an original, never-before-seen concept...... I love that we live in such abundance of creative minds making movies and video games
    1200
  1431. I love that Twister isn't remembered as just Twister, it's "Bill Paxton's Twister." The guy really did deserve more credit for his work in films. It feels like we didn't know what we had until he was gone.
    1200
  1432. I've never seen a company hate its own fanbase as much as GW
    1200
  1433. Still the greatest trilogy ever made. Thank you Peter Jackson.
    1200
  1434. My condolences to the Native Americans for having this show related to them even in the slightest. But what do you expect from Disney's tone deaf efforts...
    1200
  1435. A story about the difficulties of growing up written by people who never had to. I truly wonder what it feels like to write characters so devoid of, well character.
    1200
  1436. "One shitshow to rule them all In the land of Amazon where the shadows lie" I think I got that right
    1200
  1437. I have no clue what kinda drink you mixed up in order to want to make this video but I gotta give you a big kudos for giving an impartial review of this movie despite the controversy
    1200
  1438. I can’t stop laughing at “Discount Morgan Freeman”
    1200
  1439. I really enjoyed Yvonne Strahovski; it was like watching Brie Larson if she had a personality.
    1200
  1440. Fun Fact: Chavo Guerrero, nephew of the legendary wrestler Eddie Guerero trained Zac Efron and the rest for 7 weeks. He is also a consultant for this movie.
    1200
  1441. I went from HATING that “Yes…YES!” to out loud cracking up every time I hear it now. How the turn tables.
    1200
  1442. I feel like every Ghostbusters movie we get from now on will be like an apology for the crappy 2016 film.
    1200
  1443. Remember Arch and RazorFist motto: ALWAYS GATEKEEP OR LOOSE YOUR FANDOM
    1200
  1444. This is one of the best videos I have ever seen in my life, thank you for making this. Too many people have awful misconceptions about classic Lara Croft, you have really done her justice with this. I hope to see Tomb Raider return to what it once was. I had a lot of fun with the reboot trilogy, but ultimately they were downgrades in every way compared to the original titles.
    1200
  1445. SJWs: REEEEEEEEE!! There’s no female representation!! Common sense: You do realize this is based off real life HISTORY right?
    1200
  1446. So I'm not crazy. People have traveled through the multiverse before, but they need this girl to do it now for some reason. Also, given everything Wanda is shown to be capable of, I find it hard to believe dimension hoping is the one thing she can't do.
    1200
  1447. Calling Liam Hemsworth "Discount CHRIS Hemsworth" and Brent Spiner "Discount Data" Absolute legend.
    1200
  1448. The Drinker fixes series has RETURNED!
    1200
  1449. I'm sick of this "Arya training" excuse. She spent half of it begging, sweeping and selling oysters
    1200
  1450. If they just concentrate on Homelander and Butcher, the rest of it is horrendous
    1200
  1451. It’s kinda impressive how they made a fun body swap premise look completely lifeless.
    1200
  1452. Scalpel Mcdoctor Face killed me 😂
    1200
  1453. Now my question is....why doesn't jon snow just send Arya to kill cerci. She able to kill an entire kingdom and also sneak pass entire army of zombie.
    1200
  1454. Saw this show with my gaming-illiterate dad and we both had a great time, walking out of the theater agreeing that it was the best movie we had seen in a while. Free Guy manages to clear the biggest hurdle a gaming movie faces: being enjoyable by non-gamers. Yeah, he missed a number of jokes and references, but there were still plenty of other jokes he could appreciate, and, as you noted, the story can speak to anyone.
    1200
  1455. Patton Oswalt is always a sign you should think twice before seeing any movie.
    1200
  1456. "Here in this place everyone is equal and has a fair chance" - The Masked Overseer of Squid Games
    1200
  1457. I like how every episode of The Acolyte got a review except for episode 4 because literally nothing happened whatsoever in that one
    1200
  1458. “Go away naaaow ...” DELETES VIDEO “No WAIT -“
    1200
  1459. I like how the highest praise this episode can get is that is marginally better than the other terrible episodes, Kathleen is just dancing on Lucasfilm’s grave at this point.
    1200
  1460. Who woulda thunk casting an ACTUAL MARINE as a MARINE would become Iconic! -Semper Fi
    1200
  1461. The Rudyard Kipling poem is PERFECT, and the trailer doesn't run through the entire plotline and doesn't have annoying drum beat scene changes. SO GOOD. Trailer masterclass!! The skeleton zombie also looks like Cillian Murphy. Seven—six—eleven—five—nine......boots....boots....BOOTS......
    1200
  1462. The rest of us will be spending the Christmas holidays watching Band of Brothers.
    1200
  1463. Apologies if already shared, but I recently learned that in ‘84 Ghostbusters, a running gag is Louis being locked out of his apartment… and then going on to become the Keymaster. Subtle brilliance.
    1200
  1464. Y'know, you could've just put a title card up saying Thor Love and Thunder sucked and no one would have doubted you.
    1200
  1465. Can we all admit the Frontman looks like a Korean Mads Mikkelsen
    1100
  1466. How dare Youtube hide this from me for 7 seconds
    1100
  1467. I am a huge Mad Max fan and loved Fury Road. Never once did I say to myself..."I would love to see Furiosa's origin story". Never.
    1100
  1468. ahhh, the "go watch something else" bomb has been dropped. A phrase no sane company would say to its customers because, you know, they will probably do just that
    1100
  1469. I was blown away watching this in IMAX. America, Hollywood, Marvel and DC should be embarrassed. This is epic filmmaking and epic storytelling without telling you that you are a misogynist, a racist or socially problematic. Great story with a soul and great actors (not Hollywood activists).Best movie I have seen in almost 8-9 years. 10 out of 10 for me. Yes, its that great.
    1100
  1470. If I were to go golfing with a guy named "Joel", and I happened to hit Joel with a club, would it be called a "Joel-In-One"?
    1100
  1471. Ah yes, let's combine the resident evil universe and teenage drama, and then drown it in THE MESSAGE ,what could possibly go wrong?
    1100
  1472. Thank you for the concise review that took Ben Shapiro over 40 minutes to come to the same conclusion.
    1100
  1473. This is what happens when you thoroughly wear out fan goodwill.
    1100
  1474. I think the rings of power was a turning point not just because of how united Tolkien fans turned out to be, but also because the amount of shit we've been subjected to reached a critical mass and people just decided they'd had enough. Besides, this final quarter of the year was packed so full of shit that it obliterated any scrap of patience that was left. We reached the bottom of the barrel, and while I don't doubt that hollywood will try and dig deeper, I doubt there's going to be enough money to keep this up for much longer.
    1100
  1475. I'm Czech, we were taught about Sir Winton at high school, watched many documentaries about his exploits. Thank you so much for the recommendation, can't wait to watch this one!
    1100
  1476. Yes exactly! It s like when someone said that The Hunger Games was apparently the 'first female - led franchise.' Really? What about: Buffy the Vampire Slayer Alien La Femme Nikkita Resident Evil Underworld Twilight She-Ra Witchblade Red Sonja Xena the Warrior Princess Wonder Woman... 🤔
    1100
  1477. First year, the news hasn't mentioned the viewership numbers
    1100
  1478. Ah yes. The movie that turned the entire potential of DCEU to a joke.
    1100
  1479. RDJ giving his political opinions. 'Not a great plan!'
    1100
  1480. How can you think this is a good career move? No matter who you endorse it will always lead half the country to dislike you. It's a baffling choice.
    1100
  1481. Drinker, drinker never changes.
    1100
  1482. Me expecting an Eternals trailer vid: "My disappointment is immeasur- Naah it'll be fine"
    1100
  1483. Sauron: puts on wig Galadriel: HE'S SAURON! Sauron: takes off wig Galadriel: "Must've been the wind."
    1100
  1484. Henry Cavill: - The best actor to play a live-action Geralt (The writers sideline him in his own show to the point he quits). - The best actor to play a live-action Superman since Christopher Reeve (Horribly mismanaged and misdirected in every appearance he's given, and unceremoniously fired). - Probably the best actor to play a new incarnation of James Bond since [Insert your favorite Bond actor here because I'm not getting near that debate] (The numbnuts in charge of the Bond IP decide that James Bond isn't stunning and brave enough). At this point, you could tell me that a Voodoo witch put a curse on Henry's career and I'd easily believe you.
    1100
  1485. Yes,there was a time that movies were made by people who CARED. Cared for the story,for the characters,about the details,for the audiences. Man has the industry gone backwards.
    1100
  1486. Disney: "We make the most vomit-inducing crap in the universe!!!!" Paramount: "Hold my Romulan Ale..."
    1100
  1487. The game is never Over, R.I.P.  Bill Paxton, respect
    1100
  1488. Star Trek: Picard To boldly go where no one gives a s^it.
    1100
  1489. As a VFX artist who has worked with the people responsible for this short film, thank you for reviewing it and spreading the word. Live long and prosper.
    1100
  1490. This movie feels like it's trying to convince us about how original it is, when in fact, it's similarly stereotyped like the ones it criticizes. Overused "empowered woman" trope. Inefficient storytelling. Total waste of a talented cast.
    1100
  1491. I just wish Sony didn’t try to make EVERY Spider-Man villain an anti-hero
    1100
  1492. The shot from the carrier deck is 100% real. CGI simply cannot fake that. He's in a dual-cockpit trainer. Looks like an F/18 Hornet. The camera is mounted behind the actual pilot in order to look like Tom Cruise is flying the aircraft.
    1100
  1493. The Drinker can’t get pregnant, but he always delivers.
    1100
  1494. I have never seen a cast gel as fast as those on Firefly, it was like they were all born to play those roles.
    1100
  1495. I respect Drinker still giving his honest review and opinion on the film. I never really was interested in the film from the start but glad for the fans they got something they can enjoy.
    1100
  1496. "John Spartan, you are fined one credit for a violation of the Verbal Morality Statute." This art imitating life thing really sucks these days!
    1100
  1497. Disney Star Wars is like herpes, just won’t go away
    1100
  1498. I saw my wife watching this a few weeks ago and I just brushed it off. I didn't know this was THE movie that was starting all this controversy.
    1100
  1499. Godzilla:Minus One is a testament to the unmatched power of less is more
    1100
  1500. Luke in Empire Strikes Back: "I'm going to go fight Vader to save my friends, even though I know I'm not fully trained and will almost certainly die in the process." Luke in Return of the Jedi: "I'm going to go save Vader from the Dark Side even though I know he's one of the most dangerous and evil men in the galaxy." Luke in The Last Jedi: "I'm going to murder my nephew in his sleep because I'm worried he might do something bad at some point in the future." Makes perfect sense, doesn't it?
    1100
  1501. My mother, who is a very liberal, “woke” individual who was excited for a female Doctor (I knew from the get-go it was going to be shit) couldn’t even stomach Jodi for more than a few episodes. Chibnall is a caricature of a joke at this point.
    1100
  1502. Literal chills when Sauron looked away and said “it seems, in my lust for power, I have become the Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power™"
    1100
  1503. The witch gaslighting Sol after he stabbed her was the most sickening part, you turned into a Dark Side abomination and tried to turn his allies against him so no shit you were gonna get stabbed lady. But no, the Jedi are somehow the bad guys in Leslie’s story.
    1100
  1504. I've said it once and I'll say it again: Just don't give Disney money. A lot of people complain, but very few people actually refrain from feeding the mouse.
    1100
  1505. The explanation of why the UFO transformed into a kinda flying jellyfish is a really good example of “show don’t tell”. It’s repeated all through the movie that the thing is a predator, and predators goes for easy prey. With OJ, the main character, he has multiple run ins through the movie, and it couldn’t get him. The characters theorised that it was pissed off after eating the wooden horse, and in the final act you can see it actually angry. And when it tries to eat the IT guy and fails cause it’s wrapped in barb wire, it spits him out and growls, presumably in pain. So it unfolds itself to appear larger, a thing that animals and predators do when they are threatened. And when it stares at OJ, it shows that green thingy with exaggeration. It sensed that OJ was a threat, and was scared. They stand in front of each other, not backing away, like real animals do. And it chases the sister when she rans, cause if it runs, its prey. I like that is not explained but implied with real animal behaviour.
    1100
  1506. This is that one weird case where everything that could go wrong goes wrong and the final product is still pretty good
    1100
  1507. I ran a VFX studio that did a cubic shit tonne of the VFX work on this show. Sometimes, you work your ass off for a challenging client with a challenging schedule and tons of internal drama - and the end result is something that land in the Blu-Ray bin of broken dreams at your local Safeway. And, on rare occasion, it actually clicks and somehow (PTSD) you are able to, at least be proud that it is well received. I had to jump in personally on this one - pulling all nighters and super stressful twists and turns. But... if the Critical Drinker likes it... then I guess I can rest easy... my work here is done.
    1100
  1508. Modern Hollywood is like the government’s motto “If it’s not broken fix it until it is”.
    1100
  1509. Im paralysed from the waist down, after 20 years in a wheel chair I finally stood up to turn this TV show off.
    1100
  1510. Scorsese is the living proof, there's no more beautiful and fruitful a thing than to do what you're good at.
    1100
  1511. Insurance companies that insured the Jurassic World park: “NAAAHH, it’ll be fine!”
    1100
  1512. I love how this show is trying to say "Women are so great and don't need men" while also showing very unhappy women who are sad because they don't have men.
    1100
  1513. In the original movie, as Daniel was on the mat writhing in pain, Tommy yells, "Get him a body bag, yeah!" 35 years later, there's Tommy getting zipped into his own body bag. That is some serious black comedy.
    1100
  1514. Her lightsaber turning red while activated is so stupid. So, at that moment, she "bled" her kyber crystal by using anger and the dark side which turned it from blue to red. If that's how it works, then why did Anakin's lightsaber stay blue the entire time he was fighting Obi-Wan on Mustafar? I'd say he was even angrier and in much more despair, so much so that he lost control and choked the one thing he loved the most and tried to save and tried to kill his mentor and father figure immediately after. This is another reason that Disney's bleeding the crystal BS is stupid and I dislike it so much.
    1100
  1515. 10/10 (to hte review, not the movie) Still, as someone who grew up with the original, it was cute to watch, instead of utterly useless the 2016 movie came out as.
    1100
  1516. Star Wars have become more irrelevant than Mark Hamill’s Twitter tantrums
    1000
  1517. Street Fighter was the first time I cried at a movie. Absolute perfection.
    1000
  1518. That moment when a 20 year old 'Highlander' series, and a now 30+ year old 'Highlander' movie beats your movie filmed on a budget of 10x the adjusted value of both combined....
    1000
  1519. Marge Gunderson from Fargo is one of the strongest characters in film history. Coincidentally, she's a great example of how Lawful Good doesn't need to be "lawful stupid."
    1000
  1520. Karen: The Movie. Coming to your theater's manager this summer.
    1000
  1521. Barely standing standing 5 feet tall, McKenna grace absolutely carried this film for me. She's definitely the standout. Funny how this girl is portrayed as awkward and it's understandable cause she's 12. And then you compare it to the 2016 movie where everyone in that thing is awkward but it makes zero sense cause they're all supposed to be adults lol
    1000
  1522. A well executed, well acted, relatively straightforward movie doesn't need to be complicated or subvert expectations. It just needs to deliver as promised. Just like every meal doesn't need to be complicated and new. Sometimes a well executed pepperoni pizza is all you want.
    1000
  1523. This pleases me greatly.
    1000
  1524. Unapologetic fan service and even shot-for-shot recreations and recycling of old locations is an absolute GIFT in an era of subverting expectations and trampling all over source material.
    1000
  1525. To me what these scumbags have done to Star Trek is personal. I grew up on it and the messages it put forth helped shape me into the person I am today.
    1000
  1526. You can tell this one hit Drinker harder than normal at the end. I get it man. Losing my first hero was awful... watching literally all of them die in succession is like PTSD to the creative mind.
    1000
  1527. You can polish a turd, Mythbusters proved that. However they did conclude that a polished turd is still a turd.
    1000
  1528. Why watch the show, when I can just watch the Drinker review it?
    1000
  1529. There is more emotion and meaning in the few Boromir's words "My brother. My Captain .... My King" than in 100 hours of Amazon's excrements. God how can somebody so utterly defile and corrupt everything that is true, beautiful and great ?
    1000
  1530. "Go find something more productive to do" - shows Nicolas Cage drinking lol love it!
    1000
  1531. I'll never understand folk moaning about the length of the movie when they'll sit down and binge an entire Netflix season in one sitting
    1000
  1532. The original film absolutely was criticiszing society today with people who are overly tolerant. "Never speak your mind, you'd be labeled rude, or worse xenophobic, prejudiced, or worse, misogynist or racist." I really liked the original film, and also liked this film until the third act.
    1000
  1533. Sounds like a movie which would make me root for gravity.
    1000
  1534. You nailed exactly what it was that bothered me about this movie. After I had watched it, the best I could say at the time was "Meh." You said it perfectly. Adonis Creed's motivation was not believable. He was adopted by a very forgiving and very rich widow, who raised him as her own son. He had every advantage including an excellent education that led to a highly successful business career. So naturally he wants to dump all that so he can get the crap kicked out of him in a boxing ring. It's actually kind of insulting to the men who had no money and no education who turn to boxing to try to rise out of their desperate situation.
    1000
  1535. I think a lot of One Piece live actions success can be attributed to the fact that most of the cast and crew are actual fans and weekly readers/watchers of One Piece, but most of all Oda has always been in control of how his manga is portrayed in adaptations, with him really only letting the anime take a lot of liberties with it, he wants to make sure is life’s work isn’t ruined in an adaptation
    1000
  1536. When Mark Hamill threw the lightsaber over his back I knew Starwars was over.
    1000
  1537. This really hammers home how good Steve Rogers character arc was, and why we'll never have a marvel Superhero character like that again
    1000
  1538. Sensei, I have asthma. NOT ANYMORE! That part alone pretty much cemented my love for the show. Season 3 can't come fast enough.
    1000
  1539. My 67-year-old mother has been a huge Lord of the rings fan since she was a teenager. She hates this show. So I can't wait for them to try and blame it on bigots.
    1000
  1540. I know everyone had a problem with Thanos, but I really liked that guy. He was a character born of the modern-day streamer - narcissistic, self-aggrandizing, and willing to do anything for money. I don't think people picked up on that, but I felt like he was a well written character, and great for some momentary, dark comedic relief.
    1000
  1541. "What Wendy represented was growth, responsibility, maturity" I wonder why modern activists, I mean writers changed that? 🤔
    1000
  1542. And we're just going to gloss over the fact the motives are completely counter to Tolkien's writings. Tokien wrote that Sauron HIMSELF sacks Eregion, with HIS army, AFTER forging the One Ring. To take the lesser rings and kill Celebrimbor. There is no faction of grey-alignment sympathetic orcs rebelling against Sauron, or none of this nonsensical fan-fiction RoP's writers have crafted.
    1000
  1543. This movie makes the first Resident Evil movie look like a master piece.
    1000
  1544. "I see bad script writers. They don't know they're bad"
    1000
  1545. The Zack Snyder tweet to that "journalist" is probably the best twitter reply I've seen in a long time.
    1000
  1546. The problem with the ending in the show is that since there's essentially no zombie threat preceding it, Joel's big choice between saving Ellie and saving humankind carries far less weight, because humanity isn't really all that much at risk vis a vis the infected.
    1000
  1547. I miss when "not terrible" wasn't the best standard for movies
    1000
  1548. Robert Shaw is a F'N legend and that monologue is one of the best in cinema history.
    1000
  1549. The problem with Marvel right now is there’s stories not really worth investing since Endgame, or Infinity War for those who think that was a mess.
    1000
  1550. Charming, likeable female characters. Oh those were the days.
    1000
  1551. "You're a policeman, there are rules for policemen." "Yeah...that's what my captain keeps telling me."
    1000
  1552. "Based on an Online Multiplayer Shooter of all things." Drinker, you absolute Mad Lad. Try not to shank too many fan boys with the broken bottle you'll be using to fight them off...

  1553. "Like Mauler and Moviebob teaming up to take on Nerdrotic" 😂😂
    1000
  1554. That first season of Jessica Jones with David Tennant as Kilgrave (the purple man) was ace but I never see anyone talk about that performance or remember it was a thing. By far the most terrifying but charasmatic vilian the MCU had.
    1000
  1555. Its unfortunate because I really liked the first couple seasons
    1000
  1556. "The birds don't sing, they screech in pain"..😮...
    1000
  1557. I read that the stuntwoman playing Gabriel is a professional contortionist and a dancer. So she propably did do those fight scenes facing the other way. She definitely moved in an unsettling way.
    1000
  1558. "I dont think we should be relying on film makers to teach morality to our society." Joaquin Phoenix
    1000
  1559. The best thing to come out of this movie is the picture of Willem Dafoe and Jenna looking like they came straight out of Gmod.
    1000
  1560. I'm beginning to believe Disney DOES have a chart for its writers and it really does include, "a man can never overpower a woman nor gain the final upper hand in a discussion." When I first heard it from a Hollywood insider working on their animated shows, I was skeptical. Now???
    1000
  1561. So.......it's basically Highlander: Diverse Mercenary Edition!?
    1000
  1562. The entire modern entertainment industry can be described as "fatherless behaviour" and you can't change my mind.
    1000
  1563. Paraphrasing "Field of Dreams": if you make good movies, they will come.
    1000
  1564. "I don't need a gender confused twitter millennial to tell me what didn't work in my white male film. It's not made for yoooo~" -Brie Larson
    1000
  1565. I can't lie to you about your chances Drinker.. but you have my sympathy
    1000
  1566. Disney : Can we have a shot of Dark Rey in the trailer to build free hype? JJ: Sure, i'll toss in a random halucination scene were Ray has to fight her dark side. Disney: Ez money, thanks JJ.
    1000
  1567. This is going to be like how I watch the EFAP’s for Batwoman. I’m not going to watch the actual show, but I am going to watch Drinker review each episode.
    1000
  1568. If Sweet Baby Inc. was proud of what they did. They wouldn't take down the steam page that tracked them.
    1000
  1569. "I do this so you don't have to". Not all heroes wear capes.... Or are sober.
    1000
  1570. Thank you for showing me the error of my perspective. How could I have been so blind? My Expectations are appropriately subverted and I await further enlightening revelations!
    1000
  1571. "It's a mess" Perfectly sums up the MCU after Endgame.
    1000
  1572. Black Widow and Scarlet Johanson look 3000x better as characters and people when compared to Captain Marvel and Brie. What a horrible trade.
    1000
  1573. You almost have to admire Marvel's complete resistance to learning any lessons whatsoever as it plods on.
    1000
  1574. Cutting your own foot off after a deadly snakebite is genuinely a chad move tbh
    1000
  1575. Watching the Drinker review instead of the movie itself is super easy, barely an inconvenience.
    997
  1576. first you take away his kingdom, and now you take away his own name!
    995
  1577. My favorite part was when Dakota said, "I think it's time for this madame to web things up!". Goosebumps.
    994
  1578. The world to Snow White: "That's all I've got for today. Go away now!"
    993
  1579. The original Ghostbusters were all seasoned comedians. They didn't have to act stupid or have dumb gags to be funny, they WERE funny. The story was pretty serious, but they Busters always took it stride.
    993
  1580. It’s a shame what they did to this universe.
    991
  1581. The dwarves are such soulless and horrifying CGI I was expecting Tom Hanks to voice them all himself.
    989
  1582. That moment when you realize you're looking forward to this channel bashing of the episode more than the episode itself.
    981
  1583. Drinker: 'OK, you're going to jump from that helicopter using a bungee rope.' Stuntman: 'Oh... Uhm, won't I bounce back up into the rotors?...' Drinker: 'Nah, it'll be fine.'
    981
  1584. Thank god Taika Wanktiti is no longer in MCU as we know so far. Let’s keep it that way
    978
  1585. 100% agree on Ghostbusters 2...ive never understood the hate for it.
    978
  1586. I legit almost burst into tears during the scene where Arthur imagines himself in the audience of the Murray Franklin Show. It is so hearbreaking to see. Gives so much to Arthur's character and this is in the fucking beginning of the film. He is so desperate for some kind of affection because his life is nothing but a living hell. It also shows that Arthur also desires a father figure that he can look up to, which I feel is part of his obsession of Murray Franklin. I knew when this scene happened that I was in for one of the best films of all time.
    977
  1587. the only smart character in the movie is that one dude who 'backs out' the heist
    976
  1588. "The first woman to discover fire." That line had me on the floor.
    976
  1589. Imagine someone interviewing a legendary actor and actually being respectful enough to let him answer the questions in his own time. Well done, Drinker and Mr. Crowe, thanks for talking to Drinker and us, sir. Your excellent acting work speaks for itself.
    966
  1590. Just like Hercule Poirot, James Bond is that type of character you don't need to retire, because you can write an endless amount of advantures for him. I don't know why they had to come up with this idea that he's suddenly old and it's over.
    965
  1591. Should’ve called this video, “The Drinker Fixes Everything in TFA.” Seriously, this story would’ve been 100x better!
    964
  1592. I’m coming to the conclusion that destroying beloved franchises is part of some sort of psychological warfare.
    964
  1593. The heart of the movie was how much fun the guys were having, which made me have fun. Sometimes, thats all I need
    963
  1594. 6 legged race was so good to watch Genuinely had my heart pumping when the first group of guys all started having full blown anxiety attacks when they were slowly coming to the realisation they were about to die it was sickening
    962
  1595. To me, Star Wars died the moment they announced that the EU was non-canon after the Disney merger. Not only did Disney throw away their cheat sheet for pre-established lore, but also willfully threw away many people's hard work, while Kathleen Kennedy can prop up her narcissistic self-interest fan fictions. That just doesn't sit right with me.
    960
  1596. Jon Snow lines this season - YOURE MY QUEEN -SHES MY QUEEN
    957
  1597. We're getting back to the days of enjoyable films with MASS appeal instead of fringe appeal. The tide is turning, folks...
    957
  1598. That's the dramatic irony of this scene you see, after a lifetime of walking in and out of buildings.. they ultimately get killed by one. 10/10
    956
  1599. "An insatiable, franchise gobbling monster relentlessly consuming good ideas and beloved characters to churn out an endless conveyor belt of bland mediocre sludge." That... was... beautiful.
    955
  1600. Please tell me that they weren't building up Quicksilver's arc just to have him be a random guy with a crude name!
    953
  1601. Proof that you can have an all star cast but you need to actually have the writing talent for them to work with.
    953
  1602. Practical effects with a bit of CGI where necessary is the best approach for film and television.
    952
  1603. At least Kraven is in it. I'm surprised he's not a 7 stone woman called Sally.
    951
  1604. Klaus Kinski died over 30 years ago, but he is still so well known in germany that stand-up comedians do parodies of him and everyone knows instantly who is meant. That is some legacy there.
    951
  1605. "A sobering experience" For a drinker Woah
    947
  1606. 28 days later was one of the best horror movies of all time
    946
  1607. My daughter and wife went to watch this movie together. They hated it. My wife said "it's sexist". For them to hate the movie it must have been excruciating.
    945
  1608. Suspect they threw in more than they should have because some of plot needed to be exposition for the expected third film in the franchise, which I’m guessing, and I’m going out on a limb here, “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Beetlejuice”.
    945
  1609. What was most compelling to me was watching these 5 actors just pour their heart and soul into this movie. Its really all set in just one room. No distractions, just raw emotions from the actors.
    944
  1610. "Kathleen Kennedy resigns this year", 2067 Neo New York Times
    943
  1611. "Cassandra shits out the diamond and the movie ends." Warner bros +DC, 2020 😒
    942
  1612. I knew that under all this whiskey, you had a heart of gold. Thank you for the help to the Greyhounds shelter. As an animal volunteer myself, who spent more than 15 years in dog shelters, I couldn't be more happy to hear that. Now, it's officially my favorite channel.
    942
  1613. What I love is that it's the CAVE MAPPER GUY who gets them lost in the caves, and the BIOLOGIST that starts cuddling the clearly aggressive vaginal space snake. Did Weyland, a powerful high tech industrial billionaire, really just hire the dumbest and most useless people in their respective fields? I also love that there's a deleted scene with both of these clowns smoking and getting high which was supposed to provide a logical explanation for the erratic behaviour of the biologist. AS IF the first thing you would do as a scientist when lost in an alien cave on an unknown remote planet is just flop down on the floor and break out the bong! I imagine the IQ on the script writer for this movie must be somewhere right around my shoe size.
    942
  1614. As a man, I’m so grateful that modern Hollywood is teaching me that women are fully independent and that there will never be any need for me to step up, because they can do it all way better if I just stay in the corner and watch. Not even encourage them, they don’t need it ! Go girl bosses ! Can’t wait to pass this on to my future daughters, well if I ever dare to approach a girl to marry, they don’t need me after all.
    942
  1615. I remember a story about BTTF that they changed the time machine to a car because they didnt want children getting stuck in Fridges(original idea). Yet here we have a child literally killing themselves to be with their ghost friend. Thats just disturbing.
    941
  1616. Homelander is the most INTERESTING character. There's a difference. Just like Darth Vader was the most interesting character in the original Star Wars saga. It doesn't automatically mean that people consider him the "hero". It's just that the show wouldn't be nearly as interesting without him.
    940
  1617. The world: "YAAAY Luke is back!!!" Disney: kicks the world in the balls HOW AWESOME WAS THAT??? The world: "Not cool asswipe." Disney: "MISOGYNISTS!!!"
    940
  1618. Having just watched this movie, I'm not surprised it took 5 years to make. They went above and beyond with the animation this time, holy shit
    939
  1619. When a drunk Scotsman can do a better job fixing a flawed movie than a legion of script doctors.
    936
  1620. The lightsabre: an elegant weapon, for a more civilised age. The lightwhip: "I wHiP mY lIGhT bAcK aNd FoRtH! I wHiP mY lIGhT bAcK aNd FoRtH!"
    934
  1621. can always count on South Park to say what we’re all thinking😂
    933
  1622. Dear Drinker, I am new to your channel. Have you considered Merch? Even something simple like a sticker that says "GO AWAY Nooouw!" or "Nah, it'll be fine". Sincere question. I would probably buy
    931
  1623. "It could have been worse, a LOT worse." - Is basically the best advertisement for this movie ever from you Drinker.
    929
  1624. The movie had so much testosterone in it my sister grew a mustache
    929
  1625. "We're a generation of men raised by women." That's more true today than ever, and it shows.
    927
  1626. Jon Snow: "Hey guys! I'm really Aegon Targaryen, but shhh, don't tell anyone." Stark kids: "We'd love to react to this news, but writers felt this moment would be better if it didn't exist."
    926
  1627. Kathleen Kennedy really looked at the Game of Thrones finale and said: “Yeah let’s do that!”
    926
  1628. Season 2 Best Line. "Scream and I rip out your Trachea and the last thing to go through your mind will be 'Holy Shit, he actually did it'."
    925
  1629. I love it as a FNAF fan, but as a regular person, I can't say much else. I don't feel like someone who hasn't had any experience with the games or books will enjoy it as much.
    925
  1630. Couldn’t believe it when The Penguin brought back the same feeling as Breaking Bad: Oh my god, I’ve been rooting for the bad guy the entire time I was worried they’d go the typical route of making Oz the anti-hero with redeemable qualities and understandable motives… but then we’re reminded why sometimes an irredeemably evil villain just works
    924
  1631. Remember the Black Widow movie where the first ten minutes are pretty good, then the rest of the movie is bad and feels tonally disconnected from the opening?
    922
  1632. You left out one very cool detail - Kevin McCarthy, the actor who played the protagonist in the original 1956 version, plays a cameo in this as the old guy at the start who throws himself at their car.
    921
  1633. The moment I heard they gonna have a iron heart show and the synopsis technically hinting that her technology is better than Tony Stark I just knew Marvel don’t care about their characters anymore they already giving a middle finger to Tony Stark in his grave and the show isn’t even out yet
    917
  1634. Loki it turns out is actually the god of exposition.
    917
  1635. I can’t wait for season 2 but at the same time, I don’t want them to rush it. I want the same level of care that went into season one. It’s phenomenal. Truly peak artistic expression and storytelling.
    916
  1636. Independence Day was admittedly fun and dumb, but Resurgence was just plain dumb and kept dragging on forever.
    915
  1637. This is why South Park is still going strong to this day. It might not be the show everyone wants, but it’s the show everyone needs.
    914
  1638. “Disney is too big to fail.” Me: That’s like saying “Too fat to diet”.
    914
  1639. Caviezel seems to be one of the last Hollywood actors genuinely unafraid to take on REALLY touchy subjects
    913
  1640. The original film is an artistic masterpiece. You could watch the entire movie on mute and still be completely absorbed by the breathtaking animation. And likewise you could listen to it with your eyes closed and have your soul touched by the music. What a legacy.
    912
  1641. So Mystique dies in a prequel to a movie where she's alive and well? Continuity: "Nah, it'll be fine."
    912
  1642. “I’m the bad guy?” still gives me chills to this day.
    912
  1643. Remember Bullet Train? That was a fun movie, I wish more movies were like Bullet Train.
    911
  1644. The best live action movie version of Peter Pan is “Peter Pan” 2003. It sticks to the book really well, has good actors, decent effects for the time, great visuals, and likable developed characters. All the ingredients for a good movie…Something Disney has seemed to forget about completely.
    911
  1645. The whole original trilogy has been made redundant by the disney movies. The characters in the original trilogy accomplished nothing. The empire did not fall, just rebranded. The Jedi did not return. The rebels just continued to be rebels living on forest moons for the next 35 years. Nothing changed or evolved. The disney movies lack any courage or creativity. They just want to rehash the original movies but with a girl in the lead and hope nostalgia draws in the audience.
    910
  1646. Luke: "Talent Without Training Is Nothing" - Did you hear that Kathleen Kennedy?
    909
  1647. Drinker: "You don't have to take your gun everywhere." Texans: [HYSTERICAL LAUGHING]
    908
  1648. Lord of the Rings is a huge part of my childhood. Amazon completely disrespected Tolkien. I can’t even watch the clips of it. This is all because some professors in UK wanted to modernize Tolkiens work instead of creating their own. Insane.
    907
  1649. "Sometimes the culture and the politics shift quicker than your films can catch up to them" - this perfectly encapsulates Disney's flawed philosophy.
    906
  1650. Madame Web really truly was one of the movies of all time
    906
  1651. Imma say what I saw one other guy write on a YouTube clip of it: When John chose to throw the cosplayer shield and helped the hostages, in a way giving up on wanting to be captain America, that was ironically the most captain America thing he's ever done in the show.
    905
  1652. The wife's name is Holly, more proof it's a Christmas movie.
    904
  1653. Imagine having a ready made template of how to film an Orc battle effectively…then completely ignoring it. 😂😂😂
    902
  1654. She is what every Marey Sue is, a personal power fantasy, she could be nothing else because she was a feminist fantasy of being an all knowing, all competent, bad ass, to have her struggle with anything would be to admit a woman is less than perfect, which a feminist would never do
    901
  1655. I can’t wait for this series, hopefully you can do production hell on other movies like Fan4stic, X-men Origins, The He Man Movie, and many other films that either had a messy production or were stuck in development hell.
    900
  1656. We're almost the same age. I was born in 81. So that's how I can get all your jokes.
    899
  1657. That quiet, poignant but weighted "Go away now" feels like a lingering weight from seeing the movie is still on the Drinker's mind.
    896
  1658. the spider-verse films are proof that if you do diversity right no one has a problem with it.
    893
  1659. It's pathetic how much they're advertising this movie as "from Peter Jackson" when he signed as an executive producer AFTER the movie was finished. He literally had zero creative input.
    893
  1660. Go Drinker, Go. Tear them all a new Uranus
    893
  1661. It still blows my mind that The Flash, Shazam 2, and Birds of Prey were allowed to be seen by viewers yet Batgirl wasn't. I was actually more interested in seeing Michael Keaton in this movie instead of The Flash.
    893
  1662. "It's golfin' time" is finally here to take the crown from "It's Morbin' time."
    892
  1663. “The only thing worse than a fool Is a fool who thinks himself wise” ~Critical Drinker, 2019
    891
  1664. "Promises to come back if there's ever an emergency" Like that Alien Invasion in Avengers Assemble?
    890
  1665. “Some mfs are always trying to ice skate uphill” 😎
    889
  1666. My favourite part was when She-Hulk used the Infinity Gauntlet to give Sauron his bottom surgery.
    887
  1667. This is why the likes of the Warhammer Community is very worried.
    887
  1668. Happy to see the "Drinker fixes" and "Production Hell" making a comeback ;)
    882
  1669. Morgan Freeman has been old his whole life.
    881
  1670. Just remember, somehow palpatine returned.
    881
  1671. I took one look at this trailer and thought: "Commentary on being working class from someone who's NEVER been working class (or doesn't remember it for Schitt)." And... I get the sense I was 100% correct.
    880
  1672. Remember the wise words of Rich and Mike: "How does it feel to have lived long enough to see all your favorite franchises go down in flames?"
    879
  1673. Black Cleopatra: Most Hated show of 2023 Robyn Hood: Hold my 40 dawg
    879
  1674. Willem Dafoe should have been nominated and won. It feels like a Twilight Zone episode. The atmosphere is just perfect. Robert Pattison surprised me, he was great in Good Times as well. We all know that Twilight was awful, no one was gonna be able to save it. I'm glad he is doing films like these now. Even Adam Sandler should stop with the stupid comedies. Do more like Uncut Gems.
    878
  1675. How in god did that horse Arya jumped on manage to stand up with the sheer weight of her plot Armour?
    876
  1676. favourite billy butcher line "Well well well, if it isn't the invisible c**t."
    876
  1677. "Is it really a crime to just give people what they want every once in awhile?" In the 2020s, it sure is....
    876
  1678. (People wanted Disney to rehire James Gunn) The media: "Wow! What a bunch of dedicated fans!!" (People wanted a director's actual version of a movie to be released) The media: "Wow! These people are as toxic as the most toxic Star Wars fans!!"
    875
  1679. That “Ellie’s gay by the way” line from Drinker somehow just always makes me laugh hysterically. 😂
    874
  1680. A princess saving herself. Who could've seen that coming? 🤯 But honestly, in the animated film, Prince Eric saving Ariel causes Triton to see humans in a different light. It's a character defining moment. Instead, Triton sets her daughter free for what? "Hey, Ariel. Go leave the ocean for this man who can't protect you. He's not royal blood either. He was adopted. He's actually pretty useless like I assumed humans are. But, be set free! You're in good hands!"
    873
  1681. Christopher Nolan is to movies what Hideo Kojima is to gaming, in both the best and the worst way possible.
    873
  1682. In 2008 a college classmate of mine hadn't seen Doctor Who yet, so I gave them my DVDs to borrow and in return they gave me Firefly to try. This show left such an impact on me that I eventually named my first daughter 'River'.
    872
  1683. the part when Billy wanted to go to the party after knowing she had a couple hours to live before she potentially turned and hurt people made my brain fry from stupidity
    872
  1684. > we are vegetarian. > one of our fishermen found him. lol
    872
  1685. Having read Dune multiple times - I still can't decide if the Harkonnens were smart or not. The Baron waivers so much it's still hard for me to tell 😂. I've chalked it up to - the Great House are so wrapped up in their nested schemes, trying to think 20 moves ahead that they're all blind to what's right in front of their faces - which may have been the whole point 🤔
    871
  1686. George Lucas: “No one can anger Star Wars fans more than me” Kathleen: “Hold my beer”
    870
  1687. I was shocked at how political it was. I expected a meta/4th wall, fish out of water story about finding yourself, but the whole movie was driven by the idea of patriarchy, yet the Kens still didn't get equal rights at the end lmao
    869
  1688. I guess the Wildlings all forgot that they had been granted lands to the south of the wall and that they had been fighting for generations to get south of the wall specifically to acquire those lands so they didn't have to keep scraping a miserable living from the frozen rocks of a barren tundra. I guess they all came down with that amnesia bug that seems to have been going around in season 8.
    867
  1689. I've learned over the past year to wait till Critical Drinker has had a chance to review. My time is valuable and i dare not waste it on bullshit.
    867
  1690. The whole point of her character is that sex and beauty **are weapons** in her arsenal, along with many other weapons with which she is proficient, not to mention martial arts.
    867
  1691. Basically, a movie about the Imperium's first encounter with the Primordial Truth.
    866
  1692. God, can you imagine Rey trying to train a new generation of Jedi? Padawan: What lesson today, master. Rey: No lessons, you're just going to pick up this lightsaber and be the bestest ever. Just like I did.
    864
  1693. Brendan Fraser's Oscar speech was really heartfelt. The man has gone through a lot of bad shit in his life in the last decade. He deserved the Oscar.
    864
  1694. Videos like this keep me from thinking I'm living in a simulation where everyone is batshit crazy. Thanks Drinker!
    864
  1695. Anyone remember the movie Loki that had the frigging Hulk smash him around and into a floor and survived, compared to this Loki that gets knocked out from body positive fisticuffs?
    863
  1696. Petition for Critical Drinker to actually be a screenwriter for Marvel
    863
  1697. I love how you start every video with "ever since my epiphany about captain marvel"
    861
  1698. ‘Cassidy’s about as compelling as a three day seminar on history of basket weaving ‘ 😂😂😂
    861
  1699. The “We never interfere” definitely reads like a piss-poor excuse to explain their absence in the entire MCU up to this point.
    861
  1700. My missus absolutely hated it, she went in hoping for a Barbie centric Free Guy type movie…She nearly walked out, regretted staying and has been hating on it ever since.
    860
  1701. Herzog makes a statement like “Klaus Kinski sees the jungle as erotic. I don’t see that at all. To me, the jungle is overwhelming and collective murder. But in spite of this, I still love the jungle “.
    857
  1702. Brie Larson was not in it... huge plus for me.
    857
  1703. Why is the writing in Hollywood so bad? Seriously, the actors, sets and cgi are all fantastic, but the foundation, the writing, is just terrible.
    856
  1704. When Roddenberry created Kirk and the other characters was during NASA's golden age, where the real life astronauts were absolutely cool through any emergency and all the middle aged people had been through WWII and had personally dealt with high danger, high stress scenarios and how to act in a military hierarchy.
    856
  1705. What I will say im genuinely surprised how well the film made the Spot into a terrifying villian after hes played off as a moron in the beginning with him showing Miles his future and his new character design after the collider explosion
    854
  1706. Ah the 90’s. A time when even the “flop movies” we’re still pretty good
    854
  1707. Stephen Graham is currently one of the finest actors from the UK currently working by far
    853
  1708. In the original film, there's a shot that lasts for a few seconds. Ariel grabs the reigns of the carriage she's riding with Eric and swings them, causing the horses to speed up. Eric stumbles a bit but is clearly happy. Ariel's carelessness appeals to his own desire to not live according to the rules set by others and he's clearly having a fun time. All this is communicated in a few moments. In the remake, Eric asks if Ariel would like to take the reigns, which she agrees to. This immediately takes away from Ariel's curious-to-a-fault nature, since her riding without experience was Eric's idea. Then the horses speed up but oh no: There's now a cart in front of them sideways, going... Somewhere, I guess. Ariel dodges the cart expertly and Eric looks scared. Then they drive into a little outdoor farmers market and Ariel makes really tight turns to make it out safely, until halting the carriage right on the edge of a cliff. As they ride off, much slower now, Eric turns around and meekly says "sorry about that" to the people at the market. Curious, fun-loving, brave and lucky --> Rey Skywalker energy. 😂
    853
  1709. And people wonder why Alan Moore hates what happens to his work.
    851
  1710. It really bothered me that you find out Chavez's "origin" and then it's never really addressed again. Would have been interesting seeing Wanda and America traveling the multiverse together. One a child looking for her mother and a mother looking for her children. Would have made Wanda's turn more impactful for me while also getting to know America a bit more.
    851
  1711. Batgirl could have been a good movie if they had been willing to make a film that fans of the source material would enjoy. I like that they were not trying to make another sky beam to be dealt with movie. Given how it was received in test screening i wonder why this got canned, and the Flash got greenlit. If WB could go back i wonder if they would make the same decision.
    851
  1712. While it’s not minus one it is indeed an enjoyable movie that gets to the point of why your there
    850
  1713. How is Gal Gadot not the fairest in the land? Zegler looks like a freakin hobbit standing next to her.
    848
  1714. The feelings of love, warmth and sheer wonder that these films evoke in me will never be beaten. Masterpieces.
    848
  1715. “I don’t deserve to die like this. I was building a house.” “Deserve’s got nothin’ to do with it.”
    847
  1716. Street Fighter had the best villain speech ever. "For you the day Bison graced your village was the most important day of your life, but for me it was Tuesday."
    846
  1717. I don’t know what’s worse. The fact that Dune 2 got pushed back, or that The Marvels took its IMAX slot
    844
  1718. As an aspiring writer, I usually get quite anxious on whether or not my work would be good enough. Then I learned a show like this was greenlit. Now idk whether to feel relieved or insulted that this is the competition
    844
  1719. This is one of the reasons the first Iron man, Mad max fury road, Mission impossible franchise, Indiana Jones trilogy, Terminator 2 & Jurassic park has aged so well. They used also great practical effects
    843
  1720. I so identify with the sad, dejected tone His Royal Drunkenness takes at the very end of the video. The world that I grew up with as a child of the first and only trilogy worth a damn has been destroyed by Disney and the most galling part of that is that they seem gleeful about it.
    842
  1721. 9:02 “Where the f*ck do you think the water would go then? Would it just, like… give up and go home?” 😂😂😂
    841
  1722. This was the nicest thing I have ever heard about Batgirl. They can’t say you weren’t fair.
    840
  1723. Veronica Cartwright wasn't told that Donald Sutherland had turned, so her reaction in that scene is completely genuine.
    840
  1724. Just surprised that Netflix is willing to do 4 more of these movies with Zack…….
    840
  1725. 2020 - Politicians everywhere seeing what they can get away with.
    840
  1726. This has been, surprisingly, the best movie I've seen the whole year so far. Damn near had me fighting back tears in some parts. And the audience literally cheered and applauded when the team made the podium in that final race. I came in expecting to kill time with some mindless fun and actually left impressed.
    837
  1727. That Frodope clip was more entertaining than anything Disney has done in over half a decade.
    837
  1728. "You seem particularly triggered right now, can you tell me what happened" Me: Lawrence Fishburne and Hugo Weaving are not in the trailer
    836
  1729. Drinker's abrupt and loud laughing is very contagious.
    835
  1730. I forgot that disturbing line: "That's how we're gonna win, not fighting what we hate, but salvaging what we love".. such as hiding in the dark like rats while evil prevail. That's how you control a population I guess, you teach them to endure the ever-growing non-sense instead of fighting it.
    835
  1731. "Entertainment by Committee" is the name of the game today. Whether its film, TV or music its all written by a team of passionless gits.
    834
  1732. I don't believe these modern Hollywood villains. They're young, fruity and there's no cold or darkness in their eyes.
    834
  1733. This movie blindsided me. I went to see it with my nieces, fully expecting to have to slog through it and was just amazed at how great it was. I came out of the theatre just incredibly happy and excited to have seen it.
    832
  1734. Nothing Value was Lost
    832
  1735. I’m actually glad that Scooby ain’t in this, seeing what they’ve done to the rest of the gang he’s been spared a very cruel fate. Also poor Fred man, he went out of his way to help Velma after she was outcasted and how does she repay him? By getting him arrested for a murder he didn’t commit, had his life ruined and she still has the gall to ask for him to help her solve the case.
    831
  1736. This further shows to me the incompetence of Disney’s attempts at live action. Animation is a medium where ANYTHING is possible. Expressions, action, and explosions of color are amazing to behold. Live action with some films are fine, but there is simply zero replacement for the unique story telling of animation. A huge bravo to the designers and artists of this film! Loved it!!!
    831
  1737. Tolkien’s gonna come back from the grave at this point to smite Amazon
    831
  1738. Harley is being pushed HARD she always been a sidekick of joker and now she's been main character in 3 movies and now in game.
    831
  1739. Watching this video is like looking pictures at my childhood dog. I loved them and it breaks my heart to be reminded of it decades later.
    828
  1740. The "Are you an Egyptian superhero?" thing is the most pathetically 'performative progressive' thing that Marvel is always doing. Every culture on Earth has thousands of years of their own heroes, myths, and stories and all these American studios and companies are like "Nah they don't count unless they're a secondary character in a thing WE can make money off of. Comic book movies/shows are the highest honor for every culture on Earth."
    828
  1741. Aside from some blatant weapons and military errors it's an enjoyable show. Thanks for covering it! (I do however find it odd that with so many veterans and firearms experts out there Hollywood still screws things up) You played a clip of one of their reoccurring errors, "9mm 95gr, that's subsonic". In reality, 95gr is lighter and faster than standard 115gr or 124gr 9mm ammunition. It's a simple error, but also an easy fix. If they wanted to keep the subsonic story it should have been 147gr or heavier.
    825
  1742. Watch Rambo last blood then watch Shane Black's The Predator and tell me last blood is still a bad movie.
    825
  1743. What the audience really wants is Old Mad Max with Mel Gibson
    825
  1744. Can't wait for Disney to buy the franchise and the eventual remake, just to hear The Drinker's critique
    824
  1745. They are trying to make 007 dollars at the box office.
    822
  1746. Just checked and since this review was posted, the likes have hit 18,000 whilst the dislikes are well over 253,000. Way to go, Disney. Way to go. Guess it's time to get ready for the "review bombing" and "toxic fans" accusations.
    822
  1747. Fun fact, the original Immorten Joe was played by the actor who played the gang leader all the way back in the first Mad Max film
    821
  1748. But… but… the unnamed daughter has a powerful girl boss story to be told!
    820
  1749. Turning Joker into a musical is like making Alien versus Predator: the Musical
    819
  1750. I still get chills when President Whitmore gives that speech, it is honestly just inspiring and it has no business being as good as it is.
    819
  1751. You can also see the major difference in costume and makeup quality. At Helms Deep, the armor and weapons don't look like cheap aluminum or foam, and the actors are dirty and bloody. They also have scraggly and oily hair from all the sweat and from most likely not bathing for several days. Amazon's abomination every actor looks like they're fresh from a shower all pretty and ready for the runway. Also the armor and weapons look like something you would order from wish. Unfortunately, a lot of "modern-day" movies and shows don't actually bother putting in the little details anymore and cheap out on props.
    817
  1752. Phase 4 should be cancelled and have Endgame be the climax for the MCU
    816
  1753. Loki : Don't kill him silly-vie it will get worse Silly-vie: Nah , It'll be fine.
    816
  1754. Seems like Disney's diversity hires forgot to mail those shill's checks.
    815
  1755. This movie is definitely more relevant than ever today,movies like this are a rare breed.
    814
  1756. It is really surreal, watching a cornerstone of my childhood scoop up several other cornerstones of my childhood, then watch all of it collapse into complete and utter ruin before my eyes.
    814
  1757. It’s funny how the movies, while not perfect, actually tried to make Miles interesting and compelling in a way. While in the comics, he’s just a carbon copy of Peter.
    813
  1758. I completely forgot there was a Venom 1 & 2
    812
  1759. I’m not sure what’s worse the show trying to ship Galadriel with Sauron or with Elrond 🤮
    811
  1760. The humor makes the Drinker fun. The intelligence and clarity makes the Drinker great. Thanks!
    811
  1761. Honestly I didn't mind Red Notice. It was pretty much what I expected it to be, a silly over the top action heist movie with each actor basically playing a caricature of themselves. It kept me entertained for the runtime and didn't really leave much of an impression afterwards. At least it didn't completely kill my enthusiasm for a previously beloved franchise like a certain movie by a certain director of Breaking Bad's "Fly" fame did.
    810
  1762. My teenage daughters both binge-watched the whole series [separately] when it came out and had pestered me for a week to give it a try ... so this 50'ish yo dude (who had never heard of League of Legends) gave it a try ... I finished the 1st episode around 8 pm on Saturday this last weekend ... I ended up finishing all 9 episodes before I went to sleep Sunday morning. It has been a very long time since I have seen something as excellent in every way that matters as this series. A+ for every category ... animation, voice acting, story, plot, score ... name a category.
    810
  1763. I thought Star Trek already hit rock bottom, but it always seems to find new ways to drill down further into the abyss.
    809
  1764. If Goldfinger Was Made In 2019: Bond: "Do you expect me to talk?" Goldfinger: "No, Mr. Bond, I expect you to check your privilege!"
    808
  1765. Such a shame we'll never get to see Brandon Fraser as Firefly.
    807
  1766. THIS IS THE EMMY/ACADEMY AWARD winner of the year on this issue - we gotta get 100K subs on this channel, I CANT STOP LAUGHING!!! Dying here...lol-rofl..good lord this was SOLID!
    804
  1767. Zoomers will call this film “Among Us: the Movie”
    803
  1768. Westworld season one was so brilliant man, I don't understand how it lead to this. Did the writers change? Did the producers change? What went wrong? Such a shame, Im probably not going to watch season four. Why would I? This isn't what I signed up for, this is no longer 'Westworld'.
    803
  1769. "Progressive politics is the Joseph Stalin of our time." GREAT quote sir.
    800
  1770. The "reboot" is utterly full of nonsense rambling. Like watching a real life Scooby Doo movie where at least every character has had at least a small bump of cocaine. Gets annoying quickly.
    800
  1771. I really hate it how pretty much every film we get today is setting up a shared universe or multiverse franchise. I miss the days of originality and excitement for movies.
    800
  1772. Finally. Everyone was talking about it, but we were waiting for the king.
    800
  1773. I never would have believed that a sequel to a film series that started in the mid 90s and based on an old TV show from the 60s starring a leading man who is in his 60s would be one of the worthwhile event films of 2023...but here we are
    800
  1774. Jackie Earle Haley was born to play Rorschach.
    800
  1775. Glad that finally a modern Hollywood film can subvert expectations in a good way!
    798
  1776. Mark Zuckenberg pretending to be human.... Naaah, it'll be fyne.... God you make me laugh.
    798
  1777. I miss characters such as Seline ( Underworld ) , Beatrix ( Kill Bill ) and Rita Vrataski ( Edge of tomorrow ) , but nowadays i only see characters such as Ray ( Star Wars ) and Captain Marvel ( Marvel )
    798
  1778. Agatha: House of Harkness Agatha: Coven of Chaos Agatha: The Darkhold Diaries Agatha All Along It was really made for the Modern Audience all along.
    796
  1779. I never had any interest in watching this show. Oh it has Tessa *I don’t want to work with white people* Thompson in it. That explains a lot.
    794
  1780. I was positively surprised how they kept it fresh. The hunt for the frontman, the new dynamic with Gi-Hun trying to save everyone, the voting, the labeling, the fckn front man infiltrating the games as Nr001? Damm this was way better than I thought.
    793
  1781. When you see a man smoking a cigarette...while holding a gas can...in a room full of gas cans...it’s a must watch!
    792
  1782. If you have to re-write and re-shoot your movie because of "cultural changes" over the course of a year or two, then your movie was too far toward the edge of the socially acceptable window to begin with. Most movies from a century ago still fall within the acceptable window, even in times as insane as our own.
    792
  1783. Jar Jar Abrahams: "Episode 8 story does not affect at all EP9" Final trailer: Resistance has a bigger armada than the first order, after EP8 where it was reduced to 12 people in the millenium falcon. I'm starting to think Jar Jar Abrahams is way more into the bottle than you.
    791
  1784. The more I watch modern movies, the more I want a 40k movie just to offend every twitter cow in the internet, the god emperor and his 20 primarch sons and their legions of space marines who are all men. I can imagine the headlines now.
    790
  1785. 2019: The Rise of the Fandom Menace
    790
  1786. I understand why people would nitpick the look of Luke’s “deepfake” face, but cmon, regardless of how he looked and yes it could’ve looked better, but we got our Luke Skywalker back that we all know and love.
    788
  1787. "They have no idea what you sacrificed." Seriously?
    787
  1788. "I'm the bad guy?" "Yeah." "How did that happen?" My question is how the hell did Joel Schumacher manage to make this film so amazing and yet make Batman and Robin such sh!t?
    785
  1789. " A reject from CATS" - The Critical Drinker. Quote of 2020.
    783
  1790. It's impressive that Pattinson got rid of Twilight's stench and became a Hollywood household name.
    782
  1791. I mean the fact is we got an all female group in the last episode, but each character was actually...likable! Wow!
    782
  1792. Strong female character is really just shorthand for abrasive, unlikable, completly flawless, and portrayed by an actress garaunteed to get into Twitter fights with anyone who doesn't worship her role as stunning and brave
    780
  1793. The command to "Deploy TDK", the tense, dramatic power-pose, and the immediate and total ineffectiveness of his superpower gave me a real chuckle.
    779
  1794. Ever wondered where all those gender study graduates went? I think we found them.
    777
  1795. As the saying goes, "If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail". Fits perfectly for what studios do with CGI
    777
  1796. This is exactly how I felt about the movie. It was fun and nostalgic at first with all the dolls and the pink. And I LOVED how they talked about how Barbie is supposed to show that a woman can be feminine AND do whatever she wants, doctor, astronaut, Scientist, teacher, etc. BUT. There was no redeeming qualities. They set this up to be be a PERFECT expose on how men and women are and SHOULD be equal, and instead made it seem like you can only have one or the other: matriarchy or patriarchy. I would NOT bring my daughter to see this because I don't want her to think that she is held back from doing anything in the "real world" and I definitely don't want her or my son to just HATE men.
    776
  1797. young Sol makes Anakin looks like a Beacon of patience and wisdom 😂never thought anyone could do that
    774
  1798. An underrated gem of 90’s cinema and still relevant 31 years later. It holds a mirror up to society and shows that we are all one bad day away from snapping. And Michael Douglas turns in a career best performance.
    772
  1799. The fact that a movie which had a production hell turned out into a cult classic tells you all about just how good filmmakers were back in the day. Man if only films could entertain like this today.
    770
  1800. They should have just kept it as a father-son movie and have their dynamics be similair to Tywin and Tyrion Lannister from GOT or like Dracula& Alucard from Castlevania and have ‘legacy’ be one of the main themes. Surprisingly Young Justice did this sort of thing better with Black Manta and Aqualad.
    770
  1801. Only 6 or 7 bananas out of 10, again
    769
  1802. The Saw movies are honestly just never gonna end, I wouldn't be surprised if Saw goes to Space comes next.
    768
  1803. "We can drink as much as we want and not get drunk." Funnily enough, this same line was used in a vastly different sense earlier in the MCU, in Captain America: The First Avenger. Bucky had just died and Steve Rogers was trying to mourn his best friend, but couldn't do it because the super soldier serum wouldn't allow him to get drunk, showing not only a difficult emotional downside to his powers but an implication that he blames himself for Bucky's death. The fact they use it here to hammer home a shitty quip in a shitty show made me realize how far the MCU has fallen since the late 2000s.
    767
  1804. On the one hand, they've been spending a lot of time in the show trying to build the mental illness aspect of the character as a big deal and a vital part of his development, but then they end it with questioning whether or not any of that developing accomplished anything. I think the instinct to go big picture whenever the subject of heroes with even a remote connection to mythical deities and turn in into big spectacle also hurts this show because Moon Knight is not that kind of character. He works best as a street level character struggling with his eternal connection to Khonshu, and throwing everything else in to make it fit a mold only hurts the result. Not the worst thing they've done, but it feel a lot more cookie cutter than a character this nuanced should be. We're not likely to ever see anything as unique and specific as what Netflix did with shows like Daredevil and Luke Cage, because anything they would do with those characters here would just result in the same homogenous fit everything seems to fall into.
    766
  1805. Lazy and weak writing. Anticlimatic ending. Plot holes and plot armour everywhere.  Dumb and Dumber actually manage to destroy the show in one episode. I can't believe it
    765
  1806. She is wrong. The Force is Financial. May the Boycott be with Us.
    763
  1807. Her: “You need me on this mission.” Also her: “What do I do!?”
    763
  1808. On a similar note : Nobody actually dies or story ends anymore. Look at characters like Ahsoka, the creator literally couldn’t let her go so he introduced time travel to be used for the sole purpose of bringing her back.. the characters been alive to see the old republic, empire and new republic and met EVERY character.. it’s bordering on fan fiction.
    762
  1809. One thing you forgot to mention is that the town is almost totally deserted in Ch. 2, except for the fairgrounds scenes and one scene when Bill gets the bike. What made Ch. 1 so effective is that there were people all around, the town felt "lived in"....and yet everyone turned a blind eye to the problems. If you've ever lived in a small town, this is eerily realistic - people put up a facade of happiness and disregard people's issues, even going so far as to become angry and defensive when people bring them up. Here, there's no one around, it's deserted except when the plot needs it to be populated and so it feels like a movie set. When Bill tells the young kid to leave Derry, it's not as dramatic because it seems like everyone already has left.
    762
  1810. At this point, Disney is using up the last of their "nostalgia" tricks. And frankly, it seems to be the only way they can get a decent hit nowadays. Anything else is just a bomb.
    761
  1811. This is just a damn shame......such a wonderful story reduced to nothing more than an expensive daytime soap opera. Terribly sad
    759
  1812. Rotten Tomatoes Critics Score: 95% Audience Score: 41% 😂🤣🤣 I'll stick to my ImdB account
    759
  1813. Ahhh yes. This is a masterpiece. Just don't diss mah boi Ruby Rhod!!
    759
  1814. Right there with ya. I dont care anymore.
    758
  1815. I quit drinking, and then TCD entered my life. Now, I'm proudly drinking more than ever before.
    757
  1816. When I learned that James Stewart was suffering from PTSD due to his time in WWII & wasn’t “acting” in some of the scenes, it gave me a new appreciation to this film
    756
  1817. Finally someone who knows how to make a sequel. Giving the fans EXACTLY what they wanted and the new moviegoers a taste of old school practical effects, undying tropes of comradery, guilt and a worthy pass of the torch. And probably the very last time someone is going to go balls to the wall to give the public an unforgettable experience. Maverick and Tom Cruise are both the last of their kind.
    755
  1818. The fact that there’s just so much sheer garbage to unpack that reviews of individual episodes are possible
    754
  1819. The JJ Abrams trilogy was the worst possible decision for both Star Trek & Star Wars
    753
  1820. “High on the smell of their own farts!” Ahhh, the stench of Hollywood!
    752
  1821. Amazon precedes this film with a trigger warning. "Foul language, violence and drug use" What? What new Hell are we living in?
    752
  1822. Finally, I knew the Drinker would understand what this Franchise is all about! Mindless, action driven, testosterone filled FUN! Nothing else!
    752
  1823. The world is a richer place when the Drinker gets to talk about something that's actually good for a change.
    750
  1824. The Drinker: How I Learned to Stop Caring and Trust the Booze
    750
  1825. "Fuck it. I just don't care about this anymore." Yep... When I was a teenager, if someone had told me that we'd get to a point were there were multiple Terminator films I'd never watch, a Ghostbusters movie I'd never see, and an entire Star Trek series that I'd abandon after just a few episodes, I'd never believe you. But here we are, and I'm oddly indifferent at this point.
    749
  1826. Man that moment where he Dafoe breaks down because Robert doesn't like his lobster was just golden... I genuinely felt bad for the guy, like his one thing holding him up in this world were taken away...
    749
  1827. Number-One Rule of Cosmic Horror: "A good mystery always trumps a lousy answer."
    748
  1828. The scene where he's laughing in the train and you can see the pain behind his eyes is pure brilliance
    748
  1829. I dont know why I was recommended this but i decided "Hell, I'll bite" and you earned a sub, good on yah mate.
    748
  1830. 2:11 For those of you who don’t know, “ Uncle Joe” was a nickname given to Jospeh Stalin by the press.
    746
  1831. "I am a Jedi, like my father before me." The Return of the Jedi final duel is so awesome. Literally the only bad thing about it is the fact that the part where Luke loses his cool and starts wailing on Vader allows TLJ fans to use this as justification for Luke pulling his lightsaber on Kylo after having a bad dream. Of course, the point of the duel was for Luke to overcome his anger and show Vader there is still a path to redemption, which is just further evidence that anyone who enjoyed TLJ doesn't understand storytelling.
    746
  1832. “Space bullshit radiation” Literally one step above “experimental internet gas”
    746
  1833. Drinker really went "Fine. I'll do it myself"
    745
  1834. I feel this is hands down the best all-around movie I've seen this year, and for it to get the official "Drinker Recommends" badge makes me smile to no end
    745
  1835. I'm so glad Drinker asked him great questions about Master and Commander. Master and Commander is a masterpiece and it's easily Crowe's best and most underrated role imo. Killer interview Drinker! Way to go!
    744
  1836. Wow, posted 9seconds ago. TLoU2 is nothing less than extremely cheap attempted emotional manipulation.
    744
  1837. Will Smith falls, and Brendan Fraser rises. Life finds a way.
    741
  1838. It was refreshing seeing a movie like this, one that isn't about "the message" and focuses on a good story, characters and historic realism.

  1839. My favorite part of Fast 1 is when Paul Walker pulls out a paper map from the glovebox to figure out where the rest of the crew is. Really reminds you how old the series really is... and how old I am.
    737
  1840. There were “strong” and “diverse” female characters in the post return of the Jedi Star Wars canon. A competent creator could have spun those characters into a narrative that could have satisfied the progressives and the hardcore Star Wars fans. BUT NO! She just HAD to sh!t on the fans and George Lucas and make the property after her own image. Pathetic!
    736
  1841. I believe it's funny that no one mentions the fact that Bucky, like Cap, is a super soldier, whereas Falcon is just a guy.
    734
  1842. Wait, Picard needs a warrior and his first thought isn't to call up the Klingons and call in a few favours? Isn't Picard a highly honoured human in the Klingon Empire?
    734
  1843. I asked my daughters if they were excited for the new Little Mermaid movie. My Freshman, who watched the original many times said. “Not really. It’s kinda wired. Ariel’s sisters are all different colors. I think Triton must’ve slept around.”
    733
  1844. The Red Dead series pushes the “revenge bad” plot 1000 times better.
    732
  1845. “Not Entirely Unwatchable” That’s got to be the best comment for an Shyamalan flick I’ve heard
    732
  1846. Why in the hell would Gorr need thor to convince him to wish his daughter back to life when her death is his entire motivation? Is he supposed to be that dumb?
    731
  1847. People in my theater were legitimately cheering at some scenes. It really was a ton of fun.
    731
  1848. In my opinion the way Dr. Strange so cavalierly caves into Peter’s wish, may be the dead giveaway to the plot twist. MCU Dr. Strange is an arrogant man, but he does have principles and can be reasonable. I believe since we’re dealing with the Sorcerer Supreme this may all be an AU via Strange Simulation that in the end teaches Peter a valuable lesson as opposed to a freak accident spell gone awry. We’ll see.
    731
  1849. Good for you Drinker. My Sister adopted a Greyhound in Australia. The industry has come under fire for the numerous cruel and unusual treatment these dogs go through. All the best in your endeavours and thanks for spreading awareness regarding this amazing breed of dogs.
    731
  1850. Damn, watching the trailer, I expected the film to be around 75% Cavill and I was stoked for it. Thanks for catching this one, Drinker. I won’t bother with it.
    730
  1851. My experience with the trailer: - Started the trailer - Saw Stewart - Turned off the trailer - Took a shot of absinthe
    728
  1852. Sam Wilson looked like A-Train with cool new suit of wings and a bouncy shield. Change my mind.
    728
  1853. Another crazy thing about Klaus Kinski. He HATED the word "cut" so every time a director yelled cut he went on an insane screeching rant.
    727
  1854. A few years back in history graduate school (yeah, yeah, I know, but I had just got out of the military and Uncle Sam paid for it, so it seemed like a good idea at the time), any time a book review was written, it was strongly suggested that we analyze said book through the "lens" of race, class or gender (people actually referred to this as the Holy Trinity, sarcastically of course). So, if someone ever, EVER, uses the word "lens" to talk about your critique of a film, book, whatever, you know that a bunch of pretentious bullshit is soon to follow....
    726
  1855. From a budget of 300K British Pounds, this is pretty damn good.
    726
  1856. Mandalorian is the first thing with a Star Wars pulse since Rogue one.
    726
  1857. The moment that James Gunn announced the reboot of DC killed several movies that may have done better than they otherwise did. Probably should have held off on that announcement James. Not to mention the fact that they have Amber Heard, one of the most disliked people of Hollywood. Even a top-notch script would have struggled to perform under these circumstances, let alone a okayish one.
    725
  1858. I am so happy One Piece live turned out so great. The directors and the writers are huge fans of the series and it shows. They did a great job interpreting the manga to live.
    725
  1859. This a comment I really didn't want to have to make...
    724
  1860. I didn’t expect Twister out of any movie to actually have a good sequel compared to others
    724
  1861. “Then he promptly lost his mind, suffered a complete mental breakdown, and vanished into the Australian jungle... uhh, okay.”
    724
  1862. I take it Alec Baldwin didn’t “shoot” a cameo for this?
    724
  1863. My only problem with loki is that in the show he feels more like an idiot human than the actual god of mischief.
    722
  1864. Thank you for watching this so we don't have too. Drinker, the true hero
    722
  1865. Somehow there are people on Twitter/X that still savagely defend Disney Star Wars. Absolute insanity.
    722
  1866. In Austin Texas a couple years back this was played on a giant inflatable screen on the lake free to the public, just pull up a kayak, paddle board, inflatable mattress, or whatever floated. Made the movie way more intense in the water at night. People screamed when fresh water fish would nibble at their toes. Epic.
    721
  1867. The problem is you can derive a theme from almost anything if you try hard enough. Take a word like "loss" for example and you can apply it to each of the Star Wars movies. 1. Obi-Wan loses Qui-Gon 2. Anakin loses his mother 3. The Jedi lose their order 4. Luke loses his aunt and uncle 5. The heroes lose Han 6. Luke loses his father 7. Kylo Ren loses his father 8. We all lose hope in Disney See? The entire Star Wars saga is about loss!
    721
  1868. It felt like it was designed by an AI that tried to stick a bunch of movies in a blender
    719
  1869. Robert Downey's performance in Tropic Thunder is definitely a top 5 comedy performance of all time and possibly a top 10 performance of any genre all time. It was amazingly funny
    719
  1870. "Being strong is like being a lady. If you have to say that you are, then you aren't." Margaret Thatcher
    719
  1871. I am from Ukraine, want to thank you for your support and words 🇺🇦💛💙
    719
  1872. I guess people don't get what proof of concept means. For, I believe $300k(?), it was pretty good and has potential to be great. I will definitely watch this if it's made into a TV series.
    718
  1873. It's outright fascinating to me that by now WB appearently REALIZED noone wants to see that kind of in-your-face-feminism, but instead of saying "Well, let's just not do it then", they said "Let's hide it until the movie gets released and everyone finds out eventually." It's like producing the worst soft drink in the world, and when you realize noone likes it, instead of changing the recipe you put a Coke sticker on it and continue selling.
    718
  1874. God, this would've made the movie so much better.
    716
  1875. As an asian myself.... seeing asian elf in supposed to be Tolkien realm really pisses me off.
    716
  1876. and thats how you update an old classic for ,,modern audiences" :)
    715
  1877. Hey drinker vfx artist and editor here You are spot on in most aspects but cgi and vfx, especially where I come from and projects I work on are very different to what you said. vfx and cgi artists don't get to choose what price we want, it's actually based off of commission and how low you're willing to do the job for. That's right vfx no matter the production boils down to how cheap can the most important part of the film be done. An excellent example of this would be the flash movie where the speed force scenes were actually done in one week... because that was all the time they had to work on it due to poor planning from the producers and directors. Vfx artists do not have the luxuries granted to us like writers, actors, or directors. No unions or protections are in place. This is why many production houses actually go out of business due to needing to finish one project and making massive changes on the flip of a dime with no compensation or residuals. This as you can imagine leads to bad CGI or effects. A great example is "Life of Pi" it won the academy award for best vfx... but the whole studio was shuttered before that because of that movies demands. In the vfx world I have to say that there is an extreme disconnect between the directors and producers where they seem to think that everything can be fixed in post production. This is some not all mind you. So in their eyes a messed up shot , dirt on the camera, or missing actor... can just be easily edited in/out because its simple right? That's not the case, and it's very time consuming and depending on the shot... and even then some things can't be salvaged without a re-shoot. ideally we need to be more involved with the teams and production on site. forge a contract and let us be on set and ask us how to plan certain shoots so we can achieve what the client wants. this current process of just filming a movie and sending it to a vfx house without insight on the production needs to stop. especially when you have 30 or more studios working on one film doing several other elements. it's a broken system and it's starting to really show. I hope you enjoyed the comment and I'll go away now....
    714
  1878. The humour in this trailer is something I would laugh at when I was 8 years old.
    714
  1879. The thought of a team of Predators rolling up to the Comanche village and just wiping them immediately after the credits is darkly hilarious that the writers didn't think of that angle
    713
  1880. You forgot she knew more about how to fix the Millennium Falcon than Han...
    712
  1881. I have named my morning bowel movement, "The Acolyte".
    712
  1882. Even as a huge fan of the games, I always knew that it would be harshly rated by critics, but loved by the fans. That being said, I can only describe this movie as a love letter for fans. It wasn't without its flaws, but I do think it was worth the 8 year wait, and that Blumhouse were the perfect people for it. I'm very curious to see how they continue to make future sequels!
    711
  1883. Mr Drinker, black man from Los Angeles, USA here . I must say I’m very proud of you and I know that sounds strange. You’re one of the few creators on YouTube with a righteous moral compass. Your content is always thought provoking, funny and it’s great that you don’t pull punches on all the hypocrisy. This video is a perfect example of that. You deserve all your success and I wish you lots more. Please keep the torch lit, keep fighting the good fight and thank you for all you do. The tide will turn someday thanks to men like you. Hope to meet you one day, if I do, the entire night’s drinking is on me
    710
  1884. Drinker we need a Christmas special: The Drinker's Top 10 dumpster fires of 2019!
    710
  1885. "Who watches The Watchmen?" Apparently no one in the writer's room.
    710
  1886. Marvel fans: "We want VENOM to be R-Rated." Avi Arad: "VENOM will be PG-13, so everyone can bring their children to watch it. It will be fun for the whole family." Me: "þussy"
    710
  1887. "We are Gganbu" ;__;
    710
  1888. Coffee Kathy ruined one of the most beloved intellectual properties of all time.
    708
  1889. The gay couple was in the book, they were 20+ something, It doesnt always eat/kill children (but prefers to) but Richie Tozier was NOT gay in the source material. Oh, and btw, The Thing spider head ripoff was sacrilegious
    708
  1890. Designers: "Lets create a scary old building for our horror movie." Adds comically large industrial fan in the attic
    707
  1891. But Drinker this film is far to optimistic for the modern day, I mean there's no diversity, everybody's grey and it shows the unnatural horror of a heterosexual relationship, they even have kids 😱😱
    707
  1892. I got to say, Rocky 2 has always been in my top 10 movies. Fully agree that it’s very overlooked due to its surface level similarities to the first one
    707
  1893. The Zack Snyder movie was awesome. Flawed, but awesome
    704
  1894. The critical drinker: Black Panther is the most overrated Captain Marvel: Hold my purse 👛
    703
  1895. Let's be honest here, that amount of GAINS in a post apocalyptic setting is the biggest plot hole of the game.
    703
  1896. It’s still amazing how they went from the emoji movie to this. It really shows how much they have learned from their mistakes unlike cough, cough(Disney )
    703
  1897. It never ceases to amaze me that these companies start to panic when they ignore the obvious. You treat your employees wrong, they won’t work as hard and will possibly sue. When your art goes from telling a story to making the underlying message obvious, the people get annoyed and lose interest.
    703
  1898. Zac Efron has come a long way from his High School Musical and Neighbors days. What a man.
    703
  1899. Not seeing the clips of the farting dude in the mud or the image of Milla Yovovich laughing dumbly in the whole video is the greatest acknowledgement of respect the Critical Drinker could give this film.
    702
  1900. Drinker, can you please do the review of Joker when it's released in the theaters?
    702
  1901. This review will be extremely painful.
    701
  1902. Drinker, you’re the only critic I ever believe because you’re genuine. Too many movie critics act like they’re weathermen, forecasting what is good and bad without providing any explanation as to why. Their monotonous videos come across as cheap and pretentious. You, on the other hand, speak as if you’re having a debate with your friends, showing the why and how of where movies succeed and fail and you bring your personality into it. Thank you from a loyal listener.
    701
  1903. Can’t wait for this absolute masterpiece of a movie that will effect pop culture for years to come.
    701
  1904. I saw the title “Madame Web - The best film of the year” pop up on my phone notifications, and I was like “Which crackhead posted this nonsense…” Then I expanded it and saw it was just Will being Will. 😅 Your sarcasm has grown on me. Keep up the good work!!!!
    701
  1905. Nobody ever wanted an Echo show, they want DareDevil, and they will keep pulling you in using Daredevil. But you will never get that Daredevil again.
    700
  1906. People binging on 4 episodes of Stranger things with no problem A movie is 4 hours long: who the fuq sits down for something that long?
    700
  1907. Its very simple what happened. Weiss and Denisoff looked like geniuses when they were essentially copying shows word for word from pre-written books. The second the book material ran out, everything started to fall apart
    699
  1908. Anthony Hopkins also did a great Loki impersonation.
    699
  1909. This is hilarious. We all thought Batgirl was going to be an unmitigated joke, only for it to turn out "I mean, it wasn't bad. Rough around the edges, but could have been salvagable." But the studio was like "TACTICAL NUKE!"
    697
  1910. Step A: buy a material with a huge fanbase Step B: dont please the huge fanbase Step C: blame the huge fanbase Result:
    696
  1911. This review teared me up a bit. I remember watching Rocky when I was a kid. It was powerful then when I couldn't really understand all the subtleties and It's more powerful now as an adult that I can relate so much with it.
    696
  1912. Her full name is actually "Generic Teenager MacGuffin"
    694
  1913. Vincent D'Onofrio is The Best Casting for The Character, Kingpin!
    694
  1914. After a decade or so filled with ambiguous, morally grey "heroes" and grim-dark settings, it's quite refreshing to see Luffy, a not-so-bright hero who also has a good heart, and is never ridiculed for that.
    693
  1915. Youtube says: "Every time a Drinker drinks, an angel gets his wings."
    692
  1916. grats on the 100k but i just had to pause and admire the ROUNDNESS of Ryan Johnson's head.
    691
  1917. I was disappointed that this movie didn't win any (or was nominated for) any Oscars last year. It's a deeply weird movie but I loved it. In fact, I'd say it's my favorite movie of last year.
    691
  1918. Saw this last night and knew immediately that a Drinker Recommends was on its way. Was a damn good movie, haven't had that much fun in the theatre in years
    689
  1919. "We'll dig our way out!" "No, dig UP, stupid!"
    689
  1920. Rey’s line: “people keep telling that know me, no one knows” that’s a middle finger for the audience...
    686
  1921. My favorite little tidbit about Jaws is that the monologue about the Indanapolis (drunk and arrogent as the actor may have been) was a major driving force to get Captain McVay cleared of all charges related to the sinking. It was around 20 years after "Jaws" came out when an 11 year old boy, Hunter Scott, was watching Jaws with his dad. He asked his dad if the story onf the men being eaten by sharks after the Indanapolis sank was true, and then he decided to to his history fair project on the Indanapolis. He interviewed dozens of the survivors, contacted congressmen, and revitalized so much interest in what happened that they managed to clear the Captain of all wrongdoing.
    686
  1922. It really says something when studios take a concept with limitless potential and somehow manage to make it the most bland and uninspired thing ever.
    685
  1923. The Doctor: Let's be humane and trap the spiders until they suffocate or starve. Not Trump: shoots giant spider, killing it almost instantly The Doctor: You monster. Me: WTF Doctor, he's got the right idea!
    685
  1924. You can see in his eyes the genuine happiness he feels when telling stories about movies he’s done.
    685
  1925. See, Kathleen Kennedy, that's called "character development". Something you still haven't got yet.
    682
  1926. If there is anything I can say about this film, it’s that I respect the balls it had to get THAT crazy in the end. It was one of the funniest third acts I’ve ever seen!
    682
  1927. "Nah, it'll be fine." Gets me every time!
    682
  1928. Sounds like a man who deserves an episode of Absolute Mad Lads.
    682
  1929. I guess this will be the best marvel movie in a long time. Enjoy this moment while it last... Deadpool wolverine IS the summer movie
    681
  1930. It won't shut up the people who say that Drinker hates things with female leads, even if it should. It's just proof that all we care about is a good story and good characters.
    680
  1931. Spot on, mate. I really liked how Shriek, who had been locked up since childhood, can drive a sports car like Mario Andretti.
    680
  1932. Thank you for covering this. THIS IS THE STAR TREK WE WANT! Not Zoomers in space.
    680
  1933. I can’t believe you are still physically capable of watching this. Please be mindful of your health, Drinker. And thank you for taking one for the team.
    679
  1934. The DCEU is like that one kid in school who would spend hours on a test because they didn’t prepare for it and can’t decide on an answer, so they constantly go back and change all of their answers every time they’re unsure of them.
    678
  1935. "We're gonna need a bigger boat" Drinker, taking another swig of whiskey: "Nah, it'll be fine."
    678
  1936. This situation was honestly hilarious.
    677
  1937. Let’s be honest: If Shang Chi, Strong independent sister, & Awkward-fina sister had to fight Hawk from Cobra Kai, the three would be slaughtered in Half 🐍
    676
  1938. I'm almost 68, and read these books when I was a teenager. Great books and I'm glad to see someone that actually follows the books. Great to see hope to see the next movie.
    674
  1939. The 80's were a great time to grow up, and the 90's were pretty good too. What we have now, is an industry completely bereft of imagination and new ideas.
    673
  1940. The Drinker deserves an award for putting himself through this cringe 5 times in a row.
    671
  1941. Can I just say it's nice of the studio to pay homage to the lore of Alien by being exactly like the greedy Weyland-Yutani corporation?
    671
  1942. you forgot a rule: 8. no woman can be a true villain, they always need to be redeemable once you find out a man was behind them doing something bad
    668
  1943. "Relaxing with absinthe and a tequila slammer," is there any other way to relax?
    665
  1944. Really enjoyed seeing them walk through all the steps he takes to prep for entry, execution and exit. Haven’t seen a movie like this before.
    664
  1945. The Drinker to Hollywood: "You've lost sight of why you exist." Spot on.
    663
  1946. RIP 2019 (2019-2019)
    661
  1947. Agreed. This movie is a stone cold classic and makes 99.9% of movies made now look silly. No politics, agenda or pandering, just a great movie.
    660
  1948. A couple free hints for those looking to play the game: 1. Don't underestimate the knife, and don't just carry one as an escape tool when an enemy grabs you. Lickers, in particular, really don't like getting slashed with them, and you can always drop a zombie on its back with enough headshots, leaving it vulnerable to slashes while grounded. They do eventually break, but they break faster if you use them to break free from grabs, so try to slash whenever you safely can to get the most out of them. You can unlock an unbreakable knife by finding and destroying certain objects in the world, 15 of them to be exact. Keep an eye out for them, and an ear if you have good headphones. 2. Headshots can be effective, but only if you let your crosshair shrink. Your shot will not only be more precise, but it'll do slightly more damage and I think it'll have a higher chance of exploding their heads for an instant kill. This is to encourage a style of shooting where you stand still and aim, just like the original games. 3. Mr. X does not like flashbangs at all. Lickers don't either. 4. Speaking of those guys, they're also the most reactive enemies when it comes to sound. Mr. X can hear you running when you're in the same room as him, but otherwise, it takes gunshots to attract him. Lickers can hear you running and they're very fast, but they can't follow you into other rooms, and you can walk past them as long as you don't touch them. They'll technically hear you walking, but they merely crawl towards you in search of you; don't freak out when they snarl and turn towards you, because they technically haven't found you yet. I could go on, because I've played this game almost as much as RE4; it's highly addictive, and unlocking the infinite minigun and infinite rocket launcher feels so good :) EDIT: YouTube decided to add extra line breaks. How nice of them -_-
    660
  1949. Drinker rolls up his sleeves and sorts out naughty Dog, sorry misbehaving canine! Brilliant video sir
    659
  1950. The triangle ships are in a perfect grid. So it will just take three or four purple haired women to kamikaze and save the universe.
    659
  1951. “The Critical Drinker.” Is Will Jordan’s, “Tyler Durden.”
    659
  1952. "You Gotta Do Better, Brave New World"
    657
  1953. Let’s give it up for Peter!! The real fucken Hero!!!
    656
  1954. "Dull lifeless characters" Unfortunately he wasn't referring to the Zombies.
    655
  1955. Hoping for a particularly enraged "go away now" at the end of this one
    655
  1956. Carl Weathers joked in an interview that Arnold Schwarzenegger got him addicted to cigar smoking during filming. Arnold, famous for smoking cigars, offered one to Weathers, who initially declined because he was a non-smoker from his pro-football player days, but eventually gave in. Once Weathers had tried it, Arnold gave him an entire box of cigars. Weathers ended this part of the interview by looking to the camera and cheerfully declaring "Shame on you Arnold! Shame on you!" 🤣
    655
  1957. Maybe Rey will get on her dragon and roast an entire city. Oh wait, I got confused.
    654
  1958. The sheer regression in quality of CGI for these movies is so sad. Just from the clips Drinker stitched together I would have thought this was a Sci-Fi Channel (or SyFy if you're nasty) original.
    654
  1959. At least Tormund and Ghost gtfo there. A small silver lining.
    652
  1960. The only redeeming thing about the film it sounds like is at least it was John not Jane Rambo
    651
  1961. I have never heard of a situation like this in my entire years of my love for movies. It’s crazy that Disney messed up with this movie so much that they ain’t gonna have your usual red carpet premiere, as Rachel would say: “Weird, weird”
    651
  1962. I think the most interesting part of this was watching the number of people defending the show gradually go down with each episode.
    651
  1963. My biggest gripe with season 2 was that bullets and knives didn’t hurt good guys on the same scale as bad guys. In the finale, the character O’Donnell literally takes a bullet in the leg at close range, then they extract the bullet with a switchblade. Dixon takes a knife in the shoulder. Reacher takes a knife all the way through the forearm. Tie a makeshift bandage around it and continue kicking ass. 8 hours later they’re all having coffee at a diner rather than: 1.) Bled out. (Most likely) 2.) in the hospital undergoing surgery.
    651
  1964. James McAvoy is slowly turning into Gerard Butler.
    651
  1965. A problem with any prequel is that we know which characters literally MUST survive, and that eliminates any real concern for their safety even when they take a volcano to the face.
    650
  1966. "Even their rats are bigger than ours." What a brilliant movie overall. So many awesome moments. The Wayfaring Stranger song in the forest was so utterly eerie... you see these young guys sitting motionless and quiet while their fellow soldier sings, and you can feel how desperate they are for a moment of peace, distraction and beauty before they get tossed back into the meat grinder.
    650
  1967. “I wish to be a new breed of predator never seen before in humanity.” Gets turned into a cat.😑
    650
  1968. The first trilogy were cinematic excellence. Caesar screaming no. The bridge fight. That tank one-shot. The final battle at the fortress. Felt like a perfect conclusion.
    650
  1969. Picard: "I have failed you" Star Trek Fans: "Yes - yes you have."
    650
  1970. Wait The Drinker does games now!?! Or have I had one too many boxes of Tesco wine.
    649
  1971. “Picard” taught me that 80% of all life forms in the 24th century will be female.
    648
  1972. That's some premium quality sarcasm right here... 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼. You sir are a champion.

  1973. Disney: "The acolyte was a success look at this big number." Fans: eye role while getting out calculator Disney: "NNnooo don't do the math, math is misogynistic."
    647
  1974. Sean Connery obviously. They even did an epilogue film of 007 called "The Rock" that ends it very nicely in my book.
    646
  1975. As great as this is... 2 things are highly triggering me: First is the 3 Pixel Gap in the lower Black Bar because you were drunk while editing again and second, the fact that you obviously did not have seen the Post Credit Scene of the final Episode. As for the rest: a solid full glas of finest Criticism Booze. Good work!
    646
  1976. Watched the first movie this past weekend with my grandfather, who was big into the novel and the 80s movie. I knew nothing about the lore of Dune because I hadn’t read the book so I went in with no expectations. I loved it, but my grandfather loved it more than I did. He actually got visibly excited at seeing the ships and the explosions and stuff. He would jump up and point at the screen saying, “THIS is how it was said to look in the books! This is how it is supposed to be! Back then they just didn’t have the technology to make it look right on film.” And at the end he was like, “Holy shit they just did the first half of the book! Part 2 is gonna be the second half of the book where he rides the worms and shit!” It was one of the best film experiences I’d had in a long time, and memories like that with family stick with you forever. So needless to say, I’ll definitely be going to see Dune Part 2, might even ask my grandfather if he wants to go. Hopefully it holds up to the first part.
    645
  1977. Original Mulan: Anyone is capable of great things if you play to your strengths whether it's phyiscal or mental 2020 Mulan: If you don't have superpowers then piss off.
    644
  1978. The part at the end where they were singing in choir fashion and it just stopped dead as the sun rose over the horizon.... just... damn. That series hit on all cylinders. Thematically, tonally, the acting was brilliant, the story was brilliant, the cinematography was brilliant... and I love how there's not going to be a sequel. They told their story and left it at that
    643
  1979. I'm a 53yo and grew up with Siskell & Ebert, Variety and Etv providing reviews and comment on theatrical releases. The last several years you've become my singular voice in this regard. It seems the rest of the world of opinion is stuck accepting promotional dollars and other renumeration for positive reviews and publicity. Please keep up the good work and accept my prayers and wishes for your success. Don't ever stop telling it like you see it because some of us trust you to sort through the chaff and point us to the wheat. Thank you!
    642
  1980. The OG version still holds up. All the camera techniques are quite impressive and so is the make up. The 70's remake also works wonders. I'm so hyped for this one.
    642
  1981. I have zero interest in watching this show, but I’m all over the Drinker’s reviews!
    641
  1982. In my mind, this is a love letter to the original movie from 1954. In 1954 “Gojira” gave us, if I’m not mistaken, the longest running film franchise in existence and one of the most enduring characters in cinema. This is the big guy’s magnum opus. I’m just tickled to see it getting the praise it deserves.
    639
  1983. "We're going to DC to interview the President!" "They kill every journalist they find." "Nah...it'll be fine!" "Take me with you." FFS
    638
  1984. "Feminists" only ever tear accomplished women down.
    638
  1985. Glad to finally have another 'Drinker fixes'. Glad to see a drunk in Scotland can still do a better job than Hollywood writers.
    637
  1986. T1 and T2 are the only Terminator films, if you ask me.
    633
  1987. South Korea never fails in delivering excellent movies and shows
    632
  1988. Remember when we thought this was all leading to an Amazing Spider-Man 3 with setting up the Sinister Six?
    632
  1989. You have spit on the legacy of the McCucklefuck family tree. For shame!
    632
  1990. i must say though it was a good romantic comedy movie!
    632
  1991. “What about my representation?” . . . . “What about it?” I love this.
    630
  1992. They didn't even let Owen Wilson have a win at the end with a stick, he just gets his ass kicked ffs
    629
  1993. Out of everything that made this movie so unbelievable, it had to be, for me, the crimeless, peopleless, garbage and homeless free streets of NYC. That was the biggest plot hole since plot holes were ever noticed or created.
    627
  1994. When an alcoholic is better at writing movies/characters than Hollywood.
    627
  1995. I'm gonna put it like this: Arcane scratched an itch that has been present for years now. It finally gave me female characters that are well-written, kick-ass, and genuinely likable.
    626
  1996. Abandoned construction site : " We CAN'T use fierams ... someone might hear " House on tightly packed residential street : " Throw a BOMB in there " and literally ....no one notices . The neighbors don't even turn their lights on... LOL . Yeah ....great writing .
    626
  1997. When Galadriel said "“It’s 106 miles to Rivendell, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it’s dark... and we’re wearing elf wigs.” Brings a tear to my eye.
    626
  1998. Amazon wants everything to be "blockbuster success". That's why nothing of theirs ever is. Games, shows, nor movies they make will ever reach that point with that mentality. Not without putting passion and talent above chasing success.
    626
  1999. The main reason the writers/producers/creators are so angry at the people that ridicule their garbage movies and their unlikable characters is because the characters' personalities are just reflections of themselves. The have no depth or ability to write in anyone different because they are narcissists. Now they have to live with the fact that people don't like their shit movies and characters, and by extension themselves.
    625
  2000. Best line in the movie: That's because he's a degenerate. Best scene: Shelby taking Ford for a ride. Best moment: Miles slowing down...also kinda having mercy on the car working so hard.
    625
  2001. "He realizes it is the droid they've been looking for." Well played sir.
    624
  2002. so when the first trailer came out i said "this just looks bad" and my friend Jessica said "is it because theyre all women?" and I said "no, it looks like the same kind of comedy you'd get if you re maid it with Adam Sandler, Rob Schnieder, Chris Rock, and David Spade" and then my dad later said "actually, that might work" but really if I can sum up your analysis in a few words; the first movie was written like a movie, this was written like a sitcom...
    624
  2003. The whole 'dinosaurs for the military' thing is headache inducing. It's a stupid plot point that I wish they had dropped in development.
    624
  2004. Toxic masculinity, cultural appropriation and middle aged white men with no sense of purpose beating on teenagers...it may be my favorite new show. Sweep the leg Drinker, I'm in.
    623
  2005. I'm guessing clone or force vision. Because only a Mary Sue can be defeated by a Mary Sue.
    623
  2006. I'm glad to hear you have come to see the true genius of this movie. I to at first could not see it and complained endlessly. That was until I decided to put a power drill through my temple and purge myself of my old ways. know I can truly see the genius at work.
    623
  2007. I did not play the game, so I’ve heard how bad ass Joel is for 8 episodes and FINALLY saw a glimpse of it in 9
    623
  2008. In order to know a measure of a man you gotta put an android on trial to determine if he is sentient or not and if he has any rights.
    622
  2009. Remember when the orcs couldn’t go in sunlight…yeah the show-runners kind of forgot too…feels just like Danny forgetting the iron fleet
    622
  2010. First game Ellie: “I’m afraid of ending up alone.” Second game Ellie: ends up alone
    621
  2011. I’ve noticed that anytime Leslie Jones tries to be funny, she just yells and acts bewildered.
    621
  2012. How to Sum Up The "Chibnall Era" of Doctor Who: The only era in all of Doctor Who where people were actively rooting for the Dalek to save the universe and kill the main cast. But not even the Daleks could save this show now.
    621
  2013. This is yet another example of why I only watch “older” movies and shows. Now, excuse me while I go rewatch the extended editions to wash this incoming train wreck from my memory bank.
    621
  2014. Thrawn actually is a smart character. Hear me out. He knows he's in a Disney show. He knows he can't kill any of the mains. He knows that no matter what he does, the mains will thwart his plans. So he creates bad plans that are just good enough to allow him to escape
    621
  2015. "I'm a smart black woman and I don't think your ego can handle that" Gahhhh stuff like this just makes it so hard to enjoy modern western shows.
    620
  2016. Like a Ferrari plowing a field
    620
  2017. "It's not that bad" I kinda figured that would've been the case. Besides that sole fan poster meltdown, there didn't seem to be any other controversy during its filming or leadup... this is basically "if there's no smoke, there's no fire" 101. Either the filmmakers hired the best spin doctors to keep all the embarrassing things under wraps (and were surprisingly effective for once), or it was all pretty much normal people wanting to make they movie they wanted to make and couldn't control the action of a single actor. My bet is on the latter.
    618
  2018. Will Poulter is incredible. He owns every scene he's in. One thing about the High Evolutionary though- he can create all those life forms but couldn't create a new face?
    618
  2019. I didn't mind the first two Resident Evil movies, the sequel being better (unlike the usual Hollywood trend). It was just dumb fun. Everything that followed was horrific. As for the Mortal Combat movie, that was soo bad it actually became good.
    618
  2020. The man is weak and the woman is strong and brave. What a shocker. Thanks Hollywood.
    617
  2021. Brendan Fraser will forever be remembered by me for his performance in the Mummy. I loved it
    616
  2022. "It is possible to make no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness; that is life."
    615
  2023. I lost my shit when drinker mentioned blue haired land whale. Literally looked up from phone to see one walking in the door. Life is amazing at moments.
    614
  2024. When you’re as excited for the Drinker Review as you are for the actual film.
    613
  2025. 2010 is a lot like Aliens. It's a great sequel that takes its source material to a somewhat different genre instead of just being a "more of the same but bigger" kind of cash grab.
    613
  2026. "it's time for a woman to do..." Whenever you hear this, you just KNOW whatever follows will be something made out of perceived necessity to cater to woke audiences rather than a project of love and care.
    613
  2027. "Director John McTiernan asked Rickman to fall backwards onto an airbag from a height of 25 feet on the count of three. Sounds easy enough, until the stunt crew decided to drop him on “one” instead, to make his reaction more genuinely believable. So that explains why Hans Gruber’s expression is quite so priceless."
    613
  2028. Both "Waterworld" and "The Postman" are favourites of mine. They're not perfect movies, not by a long shot, but they're FUN, which automatically puts them head and shoulders above 90% of today's cinematic output. If you're a fan of the post-apocalyptic genre, they are a must-see.
    612
  2029. The Boys: "Go watch something else." Doctor Who: "Go Touch Grass." Disney Acolyte: "Don't like it. Don't watch it." Me: "Something tells me that's not a way to advertise a product......."
    611
  2030. A true masterclass of cinema, something that not even the finest mega blockbusters can stand up against. This is what I consider storytelling at it's peak and I haven't seen anything like it before or since watching it for the very first time a few years ago.
    611
  2031. This year was the first Christmas where I was away from my family (military), and I decided to see Aquaman 2 since I didn’t have much else to do on Christmas day. I had heard nothing but bad things and was expecting a complete dumpster fire walking in. Surprisingly, it was a full theater for this showing, and I had a very fun time engaging in the movie’s moments with the rest of the auditorium. If nothing else, I’ll remember this one for that experience, and the fact that it saved me from a complete let-down of a Christmas.
    609
  2032. "Who watches the Watchmen?" ...Probably nobody
    609
  2033. "This is the worst year of my life" "The worst year of your life so far."
    609
  2034. How in gods name does Alex Kurtzman still have a job? Not a job in Hollywood, a job. He has singlehandedly compromised Star Trek in a way that JJ Abrams never imagined possible.
    608
  2035. 'The Thing' Starring: Kurt Russell Kurt Russel's Beard
    607
  2036. when critical drinker talked about the first bit of the movie, i thought "yo that sounds like good writing" but then he proceeded with the rest of the story and i was like "okay there it is"
    607
  2037. It's Alex Kurtzman. Every thing he touches turns to crap.
    607
  2038. When you turn Rorschach, the undisputed hero of the piece, into a symbol of ”white hate” you have read Watchmen wrong. An utter disgrace and disgusting to associate Alan Moore’s classic with this trash.
    606
  2039. 2:04 lol, I forgot he was in the acolyte
    606
  2040. "Wins by default" hits the nail on the head. As much as I loved Season 1, Season 2 lacked the same realism, tight writing, and character work. It expanded the world-building in some much needed ways. Though, I would far prefer keeping the realism and tight writing, than expanding the Reacher Cinematic Universe. That said, I'll take Reacher any day over watching something with "t h e m e s s a g e"
    606
  2041. i saw this AFTER seeing the last jedi. blade runner 2049 was way more entertaining to watch
    606
  2042. Thank you, Drinker, for covering the gaming industry. Something smells rotten in the state of Denmark
    606
  2043. PLEASE shit on Discovery. My god, the glory days of DS9 are long past
    605
  2044. When Disney announced the Star Wars books weren't canon, I thought "Great! They've clearly got a very specific plan for the upcoming sequels." I was an idiot.
    604
  2045. When we usually hear "diverse cast, representation and female empowerment" however this time they did it correctly, it was subtle, not shoved in our faces and most of all it was implemented smartly in the story and not at its expense. Another evidence that its not hate for women, minorities or anyone that makes us critisize films and tv shows... its the fact that they usually suck. Plain as that.
    602
  2046. Homelander and bonding with his son, as well as the problems between them like Homelander coming to realize that his son isn’t him and his son warming up to him some were the highlight of the season in my opinion. I wish it was more of the focus this season, since Anthony played an amazing role as a narcissistic father somewhat realizing that his son shouldn’t have to have a traumatic past like him. I feel like every other character this season was just... meh. Not terrible, but just average. To me, the Boys characters in general felt off, like they weren’t the same people from season 1.
    601
  2047. "A thought occurred to me when I woke up in my bathtub this morning... 'where did all the gin I used to fill my bathtub go'?"
    601
  2048. "The customer is always right." Something Disney has never heard of
    600
  2049. One of the writers of the first season also wrote some of Breaking Bad… He dropped out after season one… And it’s pretty easy to tell
    599
  2050. You forgot the most anticipated Lando project
    599
  2051. Christopher McQuarrie is consistently proving himself to be one of the best writer-directors in Hollywood.
    599
  2052. So you're telling me having every single character arc be nullified by the end and having a random character who's never ever been shown or mentioned on-screen talk for 25min straight in the season finale which didn't have any conclusions whatsoever ISN'T exactly what you wanted?? curious...
    598
  2053. OMG your review was more enjoyable than the entirety of the movie you are reviewing haha, I'm so glad I found your channel
    597
  2054. At this point, it’s more entertaining to watch this show get canceled than let it continue. This used to be one of my favorite shows. Just watch Classic Who instead.
    597
  2055. Say what you want about Tom Cruise but he's one of the last, true movie stars who still brings us great entertainment without "The Message."
    596
  2056. I loved this film. And as for the "representation" aspect of it, there was some actual historical ethnic representation in this film that didn't feel jarring or out of place (a Sikh soldier from India who was separated from his unit and catching a ride with the soldiers in the back of that truck, as well as the rare black soldier that would pop up every now and then amongst the Commonwealth soldiers).
    596
  2057. "May the Force be with you" "I Am tHE ForCe, THANK YOU VERRRRRRRRRRRYYYYYYY MUCH!!!"
    596
  2058. "I dont want a man taking credit for a woman's work".... as she steals a man's life work.... yea that'll do it Edit: congratulations drinker on the growth of your channel, loving your content
    595
  2059. The fact that you can have a 26 minute interview with Russell Crowe and not bring up gladiator just shows how much of a career this man has had.
    594
  2060. Jim Caviezel is a criminally underrated actor
    594
  2061. Some of us in the U.S.A. know this badass movie well bro!
    592
  2062. The part where Galadriel tells Sauron that she's "gonna go medieval on his ass" and then two diverse elves show up with a pair of pliers and a blowtorch was absolutely epic
    592
  2063. Seeing hacks like salon, the guardian and similar "news" outlets gush over a movie. Should automatically tell you it is dumpster juice..
    592
  2064. She's the difference between being a leader and being bossy.
    591
  2065. I did not expect this to come out. When I saw the ad I couldn't wait to see the drinker's thoughts about it. Now I can't wait to get home to watch it.
    590
  2066. This is like firing the captain of the Titanic after the ship sank.
    589
  2067. I used to have five brothers. Now I'm not even a brother. - Kevin von Erich.
    589
  2068. This show is not a hero’s journey, it’s a f*cking Shakespearean Tragedy 🎭 It’s strangely gratifying that it seems to fall into the category of being one of those rare near flawless animated shows like Avatar TLA or Batman the Animated Series. I simply can not recommend this show enough. If you’re on the fence about watching it just watch its first act and be blown away by it. 💥 “Don’t cry, you’re perfect”
    588
  2069. So I actually really liked the first game in the Tomb Raider reboot. It was cool to see a young Lara gaining the skills and prowess she would become famous for, and the story was compelling enough. But the thing I liked most was the potential to bring the series full circle and be there when she turned into the competent, intelligent, and bad ass woman she would be become ... and then that didn't happen and her character mostly stagnates over the next two games. So disappointing.
    588
  2070. Episode 1 is still my favorite. The intensity of the Russian Roulette games were crazy.
    588
  2071. I genuinely believe that the big budgets Marvel likes to flaunt for their products has at least 40 or 60% laundered because given how cheap they all look recently
    588
  2072. Ive been watching interviews with the showrunner and producers and holy shit they are adult professionals who place story and writing above everything else, so refreshing
    587
  2073. When he stabs the French soldier and that soldier doesn't die gasping for air. That legit made me tear up it was so well done.
    587
  2074. "Manners maketh man." - motto of Kingsmen Secret Service
    587
  2075. Started following Drinker when he had, like, less than 20k followers, in what, a few yrs ago??? This is absolutely WILD. However this goes, it’s one of the greatest and most inspiring accomplishments I’ve ever seen in my life, truly something to behold. Massive respect Drinker, here’s hoping this is only the first of many, kudos!
    585
  2076. Tbf, compared to modern Star Trek this looks more like a gem in the rough
    585
  2077. I'll keep my money in my wallet thank you very much , goodbye 007 .
    584
  2078. F&F "writers" : "So how more stupid are we gonna make this franchise" F&F producers: One quarter mile at a time
    584
  2079. The shark attack scenes were scary but after all these years the most terrifying, creepy and scary part is still the USS Indianapolis monologue scene from Quint, it’s actually disturbing because it happened in real life
    584
  2080. "Discount Will Smith" 😂😂😂😂😂 and "discount Chris Hemsworth" 🤣🤣🤣
    583
  2081. Jaws is one of the all-time classics and I re-watch at least once a year. The prop shark not being seen as often as first intended worked out as less is more for this movie.
    583
  2082. Rings Of Power is truly one of the shows ever made that I will never watch.
    582
  2083. So glad Oppenheimer came out the same time as Barbie. It shows the stark contrast in the quality of films
    581
  2084. Just saw this with my daughter. I could have taken her to an HR equity training, saved a few bucks and been more entertained.
    581
  2085. This is up there with the best critiques of this film. It should have more views!!
    580
  2086. I told myself “no YouTube today” Critical Drinker and Predator? It’ll be fine
    579
  2087. Star Trek and Dr Who were two of my favorite shows growing up. Now look at them. I no longer have the interest to even hate what it's become.
    578
  2088. I'm danish, and I watched the danish version in the theaters. The whole movie felt so incredibly uncomfordable like nothing I've ever seen before. The ending caught me off guard and I was genuinly in chock even hours after I left the theater. Watching this bs hollywood ending is just sad, and as you say, ruins the whole point of the movie.
    577
  2089. Way too late
    576
  2090. This Blade movie is trying to ice skate uphill
    575
  2091. Bill Munny: Hell of a thing, killin' a man. Take away all he's got and all he's ever gonna have. The Schofield Kid: Yeah, well, I guess he had it comin'. Bill Munny: We all got it comin', kid.
    575
  2092. That Abby cut made me laugh my head off 😂😂😂
    574
  2093. Barbie wasn't just bad, it was mean and didn't care how bad it was
    574
  2094. It was fun, for sure. I think they missed the boat not having more J.K. Simmons, especially interacting with Chris Pratt. Their scenes were some of the best in the movie.
    574
  2095. When the first movie in the Skywalker trilogy came out, I thought they were going to have Finn's story arc be that he becomes a Jedi. The idea of a faceless Stormtrooper rising through anonymity to become a Jedi was just so freaking good in my head. And then Ray became the Jedi just because, and Finn became a comic relief..
    574
  2096. drinker gets shot Also Drinker: "nah... it'll be fine."
    574
  2097. I still find it weird that 2 hulk villains are the main threats in a captain America film
    574
  2098. One of the problems with zombies in modern media is that they've become such a cultural touchstone that it becomes silly when characters don't recognize them for what they are. An excellent way to get around that issue is to set the story a few hundred years before anyone's heard of them.
    572
  2099. Format of every season after 1: - add a big name TV actor to drum up hype - Butcher goes of the rails - New members of the Seven/villains are added who will inevitably die or get put on ice by the end of the season - Have constant blatant references to real world political and social events, while saying nothing intelligent or nuanced, creating the lazy disguise that you’re some amazing satirical piece of writing - have a scene or two with Anthony Starr trying to carry the show while being given material that’s trying really hard to be as smart and disturbing as the plane scene from season 1 - reset the status quo completely, despite it not making sense so you can get picked up for more seasons that you haven’t planned for - final step: make money (?) maybe.
    572
  2100. best space show, movie, whatever. Huge book nerd for them, the show doesn't dissapoint - this is one i'll go back to for the rest of my life.
    572
  2101. The Critical Drinker has a heart of gold. Helping out the dogs in need and your local animal shelter is always in need of money and volunteer work...
    572
  2102. "Honestly wish she becomes a villain" Joke's on you mate They turned her in the worst possible way😂😂😂😂
    571
  2103. When youre making a show about enlightened humanity but your post-modernist worldview denigrates the enlightenment
    570
  2104. Once a month radio checks is insane... Anything less frequent than hourly is almost pointless.
    569
  2105. Tom wasn't even the star of his own show. They made him weak
    569
  2106. Only the most stunning and brave studios delay a release 5 times. It truly shows they have an abundance of confidence in the quality.
    568
  2107. In before Warner Brothers copyright strikes this again
    568
  2108. At this point, "stuntman turned director" is becoming its own genre ... and I'm here for it!
    567
  2109. I felt nothing when Yord and Jackie died. I was just glad their Yapping is over
    567
  2110. "Get away from her...you.....b-tch?" It's almost like the character himself isn't really sure why he's saying what he's saying.
    566
  2111. OMFG FINALLY someone!!! I read review after review praising this version being better and absolutely noone seeing the issue with this ending, completely changing the point of the movie! I knew I could count on the drinker to get it right.
    565
  2112. "You see, if you didn't exist, your town would be full of bars and strip clubs. AND YOU WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO GO."
    564
  2113. I saw the previews for Venom: Let There Be Carnage, and I knew it was going to be a silly, lightweight, ridiculous movie. My expectations were met.
    563
  2114. One of the most painful things with this series, is the Jedi knights Padawan seems to tell HIM what to do. Af is she's in charge... I absolutely hate that.
    563
  2115. I think the reason why the environmentalism doesn't stick out quite as much as a 'hot' topic (heh), is because it actually makes some sort of sense in the context of the movie. If I have an army frozen in ice, it's a perfectly logical move to thaw them out. If my main enemy is an underwater nation dependent on food and resources that rely on a unique underwater biome, then raising the temperature of the water to fuck up that biome and starve my enemy is also a perfectly logical move.
    562
  2116. That's not very inclusive, sir. We now say "The People"
    561
  2117. I worked as a chef in London for 5 years. This film is far and beyond the most realistic chef movie I’ve seen. It’s 100% perfect.
    560
  2118. Why spend years showing the training with the many faces god, yet Arya rocks up to Kings Landing as herself. Lol. She must've forgotten
    560
  2119. “It’s dead, Jim.” Oh wait wrong franchise.
    559
  2120. This is the type of movie we used to get 90+ minutes of fun where you can just enjoy yourself. It is well worth your time.
    559
  2121. This show went so much harder than I ever expected it would when randomly throwing on the first episode, loved it
    559
  2122. It's interesting how Marvel Studios were able to turn more obscure characters like The Guardians of the Galaxy into household names, but they were at least surrounded by familiar titles like Iron Man, Cap and Thor. Plus the MCU had the benefit of being new and shiny at the time. Phase 4 feels like they're attempting the same trick, but with even less of the name recognition.
    558
  2123. 13 nominations... eat your heart out LOTR!!
    558
  2124. At this point, Disney needs to cancel all projects and get to know the fans first.
    558
  2125. The funny thing is that if Rey was treated like Anakin, her character would have been redeemed. They could have introduced the "heir to Palpatine" twist early and it would have fulfilled Rian's obsession with subverting expectations. All of her friends would have treated her with mistrust like a ticking timebomb. Maybe she could have started getting cocky with the ease at which she was picking up her force abilities. Maybe Luke could have said he fled to the island because he sensed something that reminded him of the emperor's power and needed isolation to prepare for their final meeting, when all of a sudden his heir showed up on his island asking for training and it scares the hell out of him. Maybe she saves Finn by sneaking up on Phasma, stabbing her through from behind and beheading her. And when Finn locks eyes with her he sees a sort of twisted joy in her eyes that goes beyond just being happy to see an old friend. Maybe rey and kylo team up to kill Snoke, but afterwards its Rey's idea to join forces and rule together, but Kylo fears her power and rejects her.He allows her safe passage from the ship, but tells her to never return. And the movie ends with Luke siding with the heroes, Kylo with the first order, and Rey as a rogue agent distrusted by both sides... maybe a force weilding bounty hunter. Expectations totally subverted without going full simp and without destroying the entire franchise.
    557
  2126. The 2 bishes helping the dragons are the only use of “inclusion” that makes sense considering it explains they came from Zerekania which is Witcher Arabia/Africa
    556
  2127. seems sad that i was exponentially more entertained by this 10 min sarcastic review then i was by the whole bloody movie.
    556
  2128. Yo man, thank you for your support. Cheers from Brazil my dude!
    555
  2129. After The Last Jedi I checked out
    554
  2130. "Since no one else was available, Spielberg was brought on board." Damn, at one point, this guy was basically the last kid picked for kickball at recess.
    552
  2131. The way Sarah Connor was in T2 will ALWAYS be legendary. She was always fighting dirty to win, it felt legit.
    551
  2132. I'm so happy you found the time to watch this and I'm even happier you enjoyed it.
    551
  2133. I miss your “Don’t know”😂
    550
  2134. "If the studio interfered, it would've felt like a film made by a focus group" Brother Zack, not only are YOU the focus group, you're the entire upper executive committee with a sprinkle of writing input from Chat-GPT.
    550
  2135. Fun fact: the alien ship approaching earth at the beginning wasn't McTiernan's idea. Apparently the studio went over him and filmed it without his knowledge. He didn't even know it existed until he saw a final cut of the film. Honestly, it ruined the reveal of the Predator, but it's still a great movie, one of my top faves of all time.
    550
  2136. Brendan Fraser. One of the most underrated guys in Hollywood. A true legend
    550
  2137. Luke swigging that green milk fresh from the tiddy, with a look on his face like he just snorted a line of the "good stuff", never gets old. Really is the perfect metaphor for modern cinema.
    544
  2138. This game was made by 6 young dudes. 6 YOUNG DUDES. And Squeenix, Crystal Dynamics and all of their labour force and resources can't make a Tomb Raider that's as entertaining.
    544
  2139. Kennedy: “I’m going to go down as the person who brought equality to Star Wars” Everyone: “Unfortunately for you history won’t see it that way.”
    543
  2140. What I love the most about this movie is that it portrays the story of true masculinity. A married, responsible, family man sacrifices his job and potentially his own life to protect and save exploited children. These children are the truly marginalized.
    542
  2141. That's what happens when:- 1. You've got good writers that give a crap 2. You've got good actors who give a crap 3. You've got a good production team that gives a crap 4. You've got a studio suitably chastised by events or their own making. Thus meaning they get out of the way and let the capable writing, acting, and production teams do their thing. The question is 'what happens next'?
    541
  2142. The implication given how homogeneous the shire is in LotR is that there would be a “cleansing” sometime in the future
    541
  2143. THIS is the show with strong female leads: smart, tough, and flawed. In fact, all of the characters are so well developed and portrayed, I don't even think about their gender, race, or age; and thankfully the story never makes those irrelevant characteristics relevant.
    540
  2144. This is actually a 2019 movie in disguise. It has all the horrible trappings of CATS and TROS.
    540
  2145. The only good thing about the Acolyte is your weekly review where you tear each episode to shreds. Thank you for your sacrifice.
    540
  2146. So, minor point but I find it also annoying, does Rey only possess one set of clothes? They are suited to a desert environment, but why wouldn't she wear different clothing as dictated by whatever environment she was in? In the originals, all the characters had clothing that matched the setting. Is everyone so stupid that we wont recognize the characters unless they look exactly like they did when they were introduced? Annoying.
    539
  2147. I am a 51 year old black woman, and one of my earliest memories is watching Doctor Who. PBS used to show entire stories (all the parts) every Saturday. They'd get to the end of the classic series and just start over again. I also rewatched them all with my kids when streaming emerged. So I've seen every episode of classic Who god knows how many times. In all that time - not as a kid - not as a teenager - not as an adult rewatching them - never had it crossed my mind that Davros was a "wheelchair user." I mean, obviously I got that he's IN a wheelchair, but until I watched the reviews of the absurdity Davies is doing, it never even dawned on me that he was representative of anything except a psychopathic evil maniac. And here's a question - if it's not ok for a character in a wheelchair to be evil, why is it OK to have ANY character of any gender, race, sexual orientation, nationality, age, height, weight, intelligence level, etc etc etc be evil? Is it ok to have a character who is a serial killer, since serial killers are suffering from psychopathology? Isn't that ableism? (I should probably not even be saying this since someone from the BBC or Hollywood may see it and destroy the entire crime genre) I feel like a real fool, because I really believed Davies was going to save this show. But he actually found a way to double down in an even more ridiculous way. I just can't believe it. I'll shut up, because otherwise I could go on complaining about this for 10 more paragraphs. JFC man.
    539
  2148. I’m just shocked by how well they balanced the Spot plot while setting up for what’s likely to be a Spider-Man civil war in the next film!
    538
  2149. This is an injustice to our brothers who died in WW2.
    536
  2150. Really didn't want to see the TVA again
    536
  2151. Right now is at number 1 in the Top 100 Movies of All Time in Rotten Tomatoes, critics are just a joke.
    535
  2152. „Fairest of them all“ is not correct. As a German, who grew up with Schneewittchen, the original form Brüder Grimm says „wer ist die Schönste im ganzen Land“ which translates to „the most beautiful woman“. German is a precise language, it is the about beauty and nothing else. There is no room for interpretation, it literally means beauty. The queen hates snowwhite because of her very beauty and young age and fears that snowwhite might replaces her in the future, as the queen gets older, and with it, less beautiful.
    535
  2153. If this was made today we’d get a crap snl skit claiming white male rage.
    535
  2154. "I think we have a critic."
    534
  2155. The plot holes write themselves. Why would Kingpin, who was previously shown to learn Japanese and Mandarin in his own time to understand his agent's secret chats, not learn his daughter's native language.
    533
  2156. The goodest of riddances. It's a crime they even made so many seasons of this, when so many more compelling shows got cancelled early.
    533
  2157. A character no one liked from a show hardly anyone watched; genius.
    532
  2158. I almost drowned once. But I'm okay because at the last second I decided not to.
    532
  2159. You know it's a good movie when the drinker recommends it.
    532
  2160. I can't for the sequel with 60 year old Viola Davis taking down dudes that can break her in seconds. And thats not a joke, thats an actual movie thats coming out this year.
    531
  2161. I saw everything everywhere, the Northman, and the unbearable weight of massive talent all in the same weekend. Needless to say I haven’t had that much fun in a movie theater in a looong time.
    530
  2162. It's sad to think about how good the DCEU could have been, if they had taken more points from the animated justice league
    530
  2163. Looks like the BBC Special Effects Dept have got their hands on Homer's makeup-shotgun. Setting: Ridiculous.
    529
  2164. What’s even sadder is the fact that It has SO MUCH WASTED POTENTIAL! Ken and Barbie could have had such a great plot line in the real world that would have helped them with their “Barbie” world issues and show them the meaning of elevating each other instead of degrading the other. Ugh, I feel like this movie could have gone to so many amazing directions, especially with Ken’s story, and exploring maybe one or two themes instead of 17… 😢
    529
  2165. Laris's backstory: "I left the Tal Shiar because they were always after me lucky charms!"
    529
  2166. Even private companies are legally forbidden from certain types of firing, hence wrongful termination lawsuits.
    528
  2167. From a small studio with a fraction of the resources that a major and more established movie studio has, and considering that this is their first ever attempt at a movie made by them from the ground up, it’s a clunky but promising first step. With time and experience I think DW will be a force to be reckoned with.
    528
  2168. This review is one of the reason you are far more credible than all these other pretentious film critics in our media. It's not everyday we are reminded that our lives have purpose even if we think we are failures. We won't have a perfectly happy life but they are meaningful whether we can see it or not. Merry Christmas and please watch this movie!
    527
  2169. You made this old Browncoat shed a tear of appreciation Drinker you "Goram" dashing fiend. Best 1 season show ever made and we fans did the impossible by getting a film made from it. Serenity lives forever with us :) CAN'T STOP THE SIGNAL!
    527
  2170. Another glorious episode of "I watch it so you don't have to." Owe you one, Drinker.
    527
  2171. Honestly a masterpiece, not since Kubrick have we had a director that cares so much about details and accuracy and research, and it shows. He's made 3 superb movies and he's not even in his 40s yet, I just hope he gets to continue to evolve and perfect his visions without having to comply or bend to dipshit studios aiming for the lowest common denominator.
    526
  2172. Average Movie Goer: I never would've thought I'd die fighting by the side of a nerd Tolkien fan: How about by the side of a friend? Average Movie Goer: Aye...I could do that
    526
  2173. The fact that Drinker has to sit and watch these horrendous shows and actually not lose his mind is absolutely well deserving of some respect, because others don't have to watch it now thanks to him
    526
  2174. This was based on more than just old action movies, but a TV show of the same name. I watched it as a kid and it starred the $6 million man himself ... Lee Majors. It was about a stunt man who moonlighted as a bounty hunter when stunt work was slow. Highly recommended.
    525
  2175. Stayed tuned for a miniminiseries on Three Mile Island. It's a ten minute episode where no one dies after some steam gets out.
    525
  2176. Thank you for this love letter to traditional animation Drinker. Those of us that were there making these films by hand appreciate it.
    524
  2177. 1:27 Did you mean Romulus?
    524
  2178. "it managed to collapse in on itself and form it's own singularity of anti entertainment." Holy Moly what a bar 😭😭
    524
  2179. They took an award winning multi billion dollar franchise and ran it completely into the ground in less than a few years time. It's remarkable really.
    524
  2180. I figure there are a couple scenarios at play here: 1) This is purely a vanity project and Cameron doesn’t care if it financially succeeds. 2) They truly believe it will break every box office record. 3) They’re thinking big picture outside the movie. Right now Star Wars and Marvel toys and other merchandise are floundering and they think they could fill that void, plus books, spin off shows, etc.
    523
  2181. This film is proof that you can still make compelling stories, and complex characters while also retaining the action material you're well known for. And the fact that it's a mostly well grounded movie makes it even sweeter!
    523
  2182. Hey, ND paid big bucks to that high school creative writing class.
    523
  2183. I’m surprised Tim Burton didn’t just give Johnny Depp a bunch of steroids for this instead 🤔
    522
  2184. Recently, I've been watching order movies from the 50s and 60s. And man! They really gave a shit back then! Even the bad ones from that era seemed to have heart and soul. There are still good movies out there. But, damn!! What the hell happened?
    522
  2185. To quote a wise man "I never asked for this." Roughly sums up most reboots
    522
  2186. This was a movie explicitly made for FNAF fans as a love letter to the franchise. And you know what? It WORKED. Respect for knowing what they wanted to do, who they wanted to attract, and who they wanted to approve.
    522
  2187. There's "dripping in sarcasm", there's "drenched in sarcasm", there's "in the dictionary, under the definition of 'sarcasm' is a link to this video", and then there's this video.
    522
  2188. For me one of the most joyous parts of the Drinker’s videos is the maniacal laugh he does 😂
    520
  2189. Imo, this should have been three movies: a movie to explore and understand the Father, a movie to explore and understand the Child, and finally a movie to explore and understand the Mother. Each adds a level of complexity and depth to the story, and how the lines being blurred between biology and technology can lead to some very extreme moral and ethical quandries. That being said, at the end Hans Zimmer was absolutely in his bag with the score, and it really elevated the scenes to another level.
    520
  2190. It's always nice to see a film about auto racing that doesn't suck and treats the sport with respect. Definitely going on my list to watch.
    519
  2191. Extraction and the John Wick saga, made me feel like a kid again. When I used to watch Schwarzenegger's movies in owe, just pure hapiness. I'm super glad they greenlit a 3rd extraction movie.
    518
  2192. I'm glad I died in the prequels and didn't have to live through this shit.
    518
  2193. I hope James Gunn will eventually make a Lobo movie, or at least a Superman movie with Lobo as the villain. Lobo seems like a perfect character for his writing style.
    517
  2194. The story ended at Terminator 2. I don't know where all this fanfiction came from.
    516
  2195. I want that lightsaber
    515
  2196. I’ve hated Daniella Pineda since Fallen Kingdom. The “I’m a perfect human woman with no flaws and I intimidate the men with my bitchy attitude” or as one of the other characters called her “a nasty woman”
    515
  2197. I want Werner Herzog to narrate the entire Bible, then narrate his personal commentary on the entire Bible. Then I want to fall asleep listening to it.
    515
  2198. The second I saw the trailer, I awaited the Drinker.
    514
  2199. This is a bit of a spoiler from later on, but I think it's worth saying to help see more of Luffy's thinking process: At one point someone gives Luffy the chance to find out exactly where and what the One Piece are. And then Luffy threatens to give up pirating if that person tells him ANYTHING regarding the One Piece, because he doesn't want a boring adventure like that. He wants to brave the unknown, go on adventures, and find out everything with his crew, not willingly follow the directions of someone else.
    514
  2200. Season 1 was so clear of the rest. By each season it got worse and worse
    514
  2201. I appreciate your evenhanded approach to reviewing this film. It would be easy to destroy it in the spirit of superhero fatigue, but you still view it objectively. This, to me, is a mature show of restraint and objectivity that increases my respect for you as a critic. Thank you for your integrity.
    514
  2202. Her firing was actually a blessing in disguise because she skipped the atrocity that was Mando season 3
    513
  2203. For Christs sake, put up a warning if you are gonna flash up an Anita like that, I was eating.
    512
  2204. Imagine if Gordon Ramsay was in this movie, would crank up chaos to 110%
    512
  2205. “Review” Birds of prey? No, I think the correct term is “autopsy”
    511
  2206. Fukanaga's comments on classic Bond disappointed me a fair bit. I appreciate he's not a realistic role model for young men, but he was never fking meant to be. It's like calling superman's x-ray vision problematic, it's rediculous.
    510
  2207. After watching the finale I cant even remember when was the last time we saw them face infected. Definitely could have used more of them. Edit. I checked and literally the last time they faced infected was in episode 5. we had 1 infected in episode 7 but it was a flashback episode. So yeah no wonder it felt like forever as it was 4 weeks ago when we saw them face infected.
    510
  2208. “Hello Tatiana, I’m Baaaccccckkkk!” -The Drinker 5 Years Ago after the longest Bender of his life
    510
  2209. The Drinker said it best: it’s a reboot of a remake...God help us
    509
  2210. TNG Picard after watching the first season of "Star Trek Picard:" "I would rather die as the man I was . . . than live the life i just saw."
    507
  2211. A movie trailer that doesn’t spoil the entire plot?! Where the music draws me in, instead of blasting me away?! This looks awesome!!!
    507
  2212. Hey, none of the games you were showing matched up with what you were sa--- ohhhhhhhhhhhhh
    507
  2213. Back during the 80s, we took in a retired racing greyhound as well. He was already entering his twilight years, and also he'd broken his leg at some point on the past - so while the injury had fully healed and didn't cause him any pain (which will become relevant a bit further down), his racing days were well and truly over. But that was one of the sweetest dogs my family ever had (and we had quite a few during those years, always one at a time). One day, we took him along as we went to a dog racing ground (my uncle, one seeing our greyhound, had promptly gotten two of his own, and wanted to see what they could do). You should've seen him perk up when he saw all the other dogs racing. He looked so excited, we decided to let him have a run (as I said above, his leg was fully healed by that time). He actually came in second in that final race of his career :)
    507
  2214. When in quarantine...sees Drinker...fastest click ever.
    506
  2215. The TVA and their tech was something that i just couldn't buy, throughout the whole season. Like, the ONLY weapons they ever seem to possess were those shock batons, and i always wondered: If theyre already having such a hard time restraining two average people and a CHILD, now how the hell would they be able to capture, say, a Thanos? A Captain America Variant? Yes, apparently all magic or supernatural / superhuman powers don't work in TVA realm, but even then, how would they handle a 8ft tall giant in combat, or a regular human in peak physical condition with expert training in Martial Arts? How would they handle , say, a Winter Soldier Variant? Or , as it was once shown very briefly, a Hulk(-ish) Variant of Loki?
    504
  2216. The Saw Franchise has always varied in Quality but one thing they always have consistent is the level of Gore and violence
    503
  2217. 3:54 Thank you Drinker for being one of the only reviewers for mentioning Jeffrey D Jones “dark past”
    502
  2218. We need more shows like this. It's fucking amazing.
    501
  2219. "Falcon and the Stolen Valor" will begin the fecal avalanche, and I see no cause for hope after that
    499
  2220. I think at this point even a well made show in the star wars universe will fail or not perform as well: people are just so saturated by the slop that came before it that they just dont want it anymore.
    499
  2221. I just have complete apathy at this point for the MCU. They don’t care about the characters, making it harder for us to care
    499
  2222. "This is how Star Wars dies... Thunderous Scissoring."
    498
  2223. When Sabine meets Ezra again, I was shocked at how emotionless it was. Like who is directing this???
    497
  2224. As a writer, One of the biggest things you must accept as a writer, that none of fucking hollywood can, is that if your work is subtle, people will derive whatever message they want from it because it speaks to them, be it what you intended or not. Being overt in your message, though, will make it to where nobody derives anything from it (and usually the only people who like it are already die hards for whatever opinion you're preaching). Writing is a neutral force that when done well lets people take what they need from it. Not this supreme force of good and justice that hollywood writers with their heads up their asses think it is.
    496
  2225. Fun fact: the movie was initially meant to be a remake directed by Joseph Kosinski (Top Gun: Maverick). But ended up being scrapped and turned into a standalone sequel.
    496
  2226. Not only is no one surprised this bombed, I doubt anyone cares.
    496
  2227. I can't wait for Twist3rs, where the son of the twister from the finale of Twisters starts stalking Glen Powell across all of the midwest to get revenge.
    496
  2228. Synthetic?! “ I prefer the term artificial person myself.“ - Bishop (Aliens)
    496
  2229. Coincidentally this movie is one of the best performing box office wise in the pandemic. Could this possibly be due to it just trying to be entertaining rather than pushing the "MESSAGE"
    496
  2230. While The Drinker may not be the hero we want, he is the hero we need.
    495
  2231. Had Predator 2 been a stand alone film, nobody would crap over it! It's a damn good film!
    495
  2232. Oh boys... another showrunner tells people to watch something else and then is upset that no one is watching the show. A perplexing mystery to be sure.
    495
  2233. Good lord this video should have a million views by now.
    494
  2234. As someone who suffers from insomnia, i fell asleep 25 minutes in. 10/10
    493
  2235. The plot has too many Holes, but it was really very enjoyable.
    493
  2236. Most folks: We want heroes we can aspire to be more like and improve ourselves. SJWs: We want to bring heroes down to our own level so we can settle for being mediocre.
    492
  2237. Felt weirdly structured, like there was a talky bit then a spook set piece over and over again until they end up in the sewer and beat him by not being afraid and I figured that we learnt this last time. Why does he kill Eddie the moment he feels the most confident? I thought it fed on fear? And kills em when they are most spooked? Why does it kill the unconscious gay guy? He was standing up for himself and didn't seem to be aware that pennywise even existed. How is that feeding on fear exactly? I dont get how the monster works and beating him was kinda meh. The scare scenes started to blend together for me and that's a shame cause I really liked the first one. They had a stellar cast and resources were through the roof but this ended up just being "okay" to me tbh
    492
  2238. Seven years to get a new season of DD is absolutely insane
    490
  2239. Im so glad a good finnish movie is getting global recognition.
    489
  2240. Never in my life have I anticipated media so much, not for interest in watching it but the online trashing of it. Thank you for your service, Critical Drinker.
    489
  2241. So nice I can watch 10 minutes of Drinker to save me hours to go to a movie theater, so much time to use on worthwhile things, thank you Drinker for making life better.
    489
  2242. Karl Urban is from New Zealand, Antony Starr(Homelander) is also a kiwi.Great review Drinker.
    489
  2243. I think it’s made better when Mulan’s reason for going into the army was to protect her ageing war veteran father from enlisting again and getting himself killed. And you can see from the moment he attempts to train that his body can’t keep up anymore. That alone takes some guts and is a pretty noble thing to do
    488
  2244. "I guess that wasn't written in the history books." Don't forget CD that a feminist just recently discovered that the Aliens series had a strong female leading character all those years ago. If the narrative can keep people from remembering that, then hey... 😅
    487
  2245. They wouldn't do that to Indy Flashback of Kylo killing Han Solo Nah it'll be fine
    487
  2246. I honestly just want a phase where there's smaller but very important stakes.... I'm exhausted with multiverse world, galaxy, universe ending threats
    486
  2247. in the grim darkness of the far future, there is only THE MESSAGE.
    486
  2248. I'm a Texan born and raised and growing up in the 80 and 90 you knew of the von Erichs. You heard about them you went to watch them they were heros in a way. That's why it was hard when they died. After is when all the speculation started coming out. Fuck I had to watch it twice at the theater I walked out the first time crying missed about twenty minutes of it. I remember going to watch them wrestle and getting to meet Kerry after the show. My dad took me. This was a really damn good movie and told the story of the family well.
    485
  2249. Damn man, i don't think anyone was expecting the movie to have this much of a positive response. Literally everyone loves this movie
    485
  2250. Navi: Cheering as the space ships leave. Humans: Radio the USCM, tell them to prepare all the CN-20 for regional saturation. Jake and the Navi: Why does it suddenly smell like bitter almonds?
    484
  2251. One of the biggest complaints my best friend had about Prey is that he found the characters completely uninteresting. One of the best things about the original Predator film is that the characters were pretty well fleshed out within a short time.
    484
  2252. Id rather sit and watch Jaws on repeat than watch 99.99% of almost everything made today. They dont make movies like Jaws anymore and it shows. That authentic feel of the movies is a huge reason why Jaws was so successful, because you felt like you were watching it happen, not some fake poorly rendered CG image.
    483
  2253. Should have ended with the first season...
    483
  2254. They somehow found a way to deconstruct a deconstruction. I'm legitimately impressed at how awful this was.
    483
  2255. Tessa Thompson is the worst.
    482
  2256. Miguel O'Hara: "All stations stop Spider-Man!" Spider-Man Variants: all pointing at each other
    482
  2257. Damn, I don't think I've ever seen a movie try and drag down everyone involved like this in a long time. It's like an anchor pulling the cast, crew, and everyone nearby into the sea and burning more careers than ever.
    481
  2258. Incredible series. The plane sequence is some of the most haunting shit I've seen all year.
    481
  2259. She thought The Acolyte would be her crowning achievement which would allow her to walk out into the sunset achieving everything she wanted with Star Wars
    481
  2260. Old Lara, all the way!
    481
  2261. This is why I said in the last video you did on this that I'm not believing it until she's out the door and her office is empty.
    479
  2262. The "resolution" of Thor's arc was the moment where I decided to break up with the MCU. They spent at least five movies setting up that he would slowly learn responsibility and become king of Asgard, only for Schrodinger's Mom to tell him "Nah, it'll be fine, don't be king." That's when the spell was broken and I decided I would no longer go out of my way to see Marvel movies. Because if they aren't going to follow ten years of continuity and character development, why should I?
    479
  2263. These writers have no life experience, never had any hardship to draw from, and have no understanding or appreciation for the craft of writing.
    479
  2264. "I'd rather stay at home, than be stuck inside a police box with this arsehole" - and that perfectly sums up the absolute mess they've made of Doctor Who.
    479
  2265. The padawan lost his mind while on a 6 week mission. They built it up like he was there for 6 years. Dude was on like a standard business trip and collapsed
    478
  2266. "the way the character is constantly downplayed, downtrodden and disrespected, leaving us with a bitter, broken and defeated man with no dignity, purpose or agency." Reminds me of 'Picard'.
    478
  2267. Please review Rise of Soywoker!
    478
  2268. "Who's to blame? Every decision you've made has led us from bad to worse." "First rule of leadership, everything is your fault." These two lines perfectly sums up to KK'S horrible leadership at Lucasfilm.
    478
  2269. “Advertisers have to cater to what we want. And hold on to your corncob pipe - we like pretty women. Pretty women sell good products, ugly women sell tennis rackets. Pretty women - cars; ugly women - minivans. Pretty women make us buy beer. Ugly women make us *drink beer*” — Al Bundy. Philosopher. Objective Observer.
    477
  2270. Everyone who watched this movie probably won't watch it again. But over time they will watch the Swayze RoadHouse over and over again.
    477
  2271. Dosn't trans-warp transporting sort of make starships totally obsolete?
    476
  2272. From someone who spent three months at the island, it's incredible that the barracks were actually filmed in England. Looks nearly identical.
    476
  2273. The weirdest thing is that ten years earlier Herzog and Kinski had cooperated on a film about an insane project in the Amazon. That too became a Production HELL worthy project, due to the difficulties of shooting on location in the Amazon rain forest. Kinsky and Herzog almost killed each other. And the final product is a nightmarish vision of obsession and slow disaster. That movie is Aguirre - the Wrath of God. And then they decided to do it again. Cheers
    475
  2274. Yes. I was actually waiting for your take on this.
    475
  2275. "The art comes before the politics." - This is doubly impactful when you take into account that The Drinker clearly thinks of a well-written story AS art.
    471
  2276. I will absolutely give " the rise of skywalker" the support it deserves, by staying home and watching literally anything else.
    471
  2277. This movie has the same energy as a lazy Resident Evil Multiplayer Game.
    471
  2278. War for The Planet of The Apes is the perfect ending for the franchise
    471
  2279. As an Indian I’m so happy to see this. It’s so good to see the world getting to know about Indian cinema
    469
  2280. It still didn't answer the question: Do androids dream of electric sheep?
    469
  2281. The jedi only see the force as a weapon. - D+ 50 years ago, one of Obi Wan's first lines: "Its an energy field CREATED by all living things. It surrounds us and penetrates us. It binds the galaxy together." Even their bad ideas aren't even original
    469
  2282. The main theme is the pursuit of fame and fortune (specifically in Hollywood). Jean Jacket is a metaphor for Hollywood and how it sucks up would be stars desperate for fame and spits them out once it’s had its fill. The main characters didn’t call the authorities because the government would take over and sweep the whole thing under the rug and ruin their chance of fame and fortune. I had the same take aways and questions about their actions but when you apply the themes their illogical behavior is a purposeful writing choice. It shows how people will risk everything and potentially sacrifice their life for the sake of stardom and “Hollywood” doesn’t care one way or another.
    469
  2283. Lets not forget that the reason Disney bought Marvel in the first place was because they wanted a product line that appealed to a male audience. Funny how they then decided to change that product to appeal more to a female audience, something that it was never meant to be.
    468
  2284. The only thing good about the Ringworms of power and the acoshyte is how much money they are making our favorite YouTubers
    468
  2285. I was in the Marines when the show was on the air and didn't have time for TV, so I didn't even hear about firefly until about 10 years later. Once I finally watched it, it immediately became one of my favorite shows ever. I couldn't understand how the heck it got cancelled after only one season. Then I saw that it aired on Fox and it made sense.
    468
  2286. Creativity is dead in Hollywood now. But hey... political comment will do... right? 🤔
    468
  2287. "Somehow Palpatine returned" has to be one of the "wtf" lines in history, Disney has truly outdone themselves with questionable choices
    467
  2288. The movie may not make any sense at all, but it does prove that putting Chris Pratt into anything will make people want to see it. Hell it’s even getting a sequel.
    467
  2289. “Good movies are timeless.” Good story telling is timeless, period. Not stories choked by agenda politics, data analysis or what ever is trending at this particular moment.
    465
  2290. Bad? No This movie is outstanding in almost every way possible.
    464
  2291. I'm only going by the pictures revealed so far, but another issue is that the series seems to be all about Brave Young People (TM), whereas LotR included wise elders, hardened warriors who have been around and seen too much, etc. Really tired of everything being all about twenty-somethings, who are about the last ones I'd want to put in charge of the world.
    463
  2292. It's funny that the director describes this movie as dark and gritty, a mature follow up to their previous stories, and the first thing you see in the trailer is KK stuck like a bug on a windshield waving at Sam Jackson while he silently contemplates his career choices
    463
  2293. The Emperor: Are you the master of the Knights of Ren? Kylo: Yarp. The Emperor: Did you kill Rey? Kylo: ..Narp?
    463
  2294. I worked for 10 years as an Electric in the industry, on all sizes of productions, from indy auto-financed experimental films to X-men movies, and the best shoot I’ve ever had was on a 6mil Netflix movie, at it’s beginnings. Everybody was well paid, we had time and ressources to try and do fun stuff. Production didn’t cheap out on anything, but they were well aware of the limits of their budget, all the while being very talkative and creative. By far, it was my most memorable experience, and I wish we’d go back to these simpler times! EDIT: by Beginnings I meant when Netflix started really dishing out content on the streaming platform.
    462
  2295. Bruce Greenwood was amazing as Roderick. It was his sister who was more calculating, but in the actual deal, look how fast he accepted,blink of an eye. He is evil, and the corpses raining upon him are his reward. Brilliant show!! ☆☆☆☆☆!!!
    462
  2296. This will be the year when a drunk Scotsman made more sense and dispensed more salient wisdom than mainstream media and mainstream reviewers combined.
    461
  2297. I think Cillian Murphy steals the show but overall everyone did a fantastic job! I'm thrilled I saw this on the big screen! Love your content it gives me a reason to live!
    461
  2298. Really enjoyed season 2. Probably because my expectations were a bit lower because I knew it couldn't possibly have the "magic" of the first season
    461
  2299. Disney has taken a few steps that seem to show that they are starting to get tired of lighting cigars with 100 dollar bills. So perhaps they did shelf it. They just won't admit or talk about it.
    461
  2300. Ms.Marvel can easily be described as souless and corporate. There's nothing about her that is organic and timeless. Compare her to Spiderman and it's a night and day difference
    460
  2301. I love the positive reviews as much as the “negative” reviews. I’m just sorry that more movies fall into the negative category now days. Keep up the good work soldier!
    459
  2302. Vizzini: " You fell victim to one of the classic blunders. The most famous is never get involved in a land war in Asia. But only slightly less well known is this; never make a sequel to a Bill Murray movie! Let alone a franchise!"
    458
  2303. I just want to say congratulations Drinker!!! I’ve been subscribed since like 10k subs. I’m so glad that you made it, bro. You deserve it. And you never changed who you are. Congrats, man. Go away now.
    458
  2304. It's hilarious how Netflix can go from absolute bangers like Society of the Snow, All Quiet on the western front, Cyberpunk Edge Runners and Terminator: Zero to this. This company really has absolutely no consistency.
    458
  2305. When your movie has Juba from Gladiator, some good stuff is probably going to happen.
    457
  2306. I'm just never getting over the directive choice to have one of the side characters literally do a 360 spin and shoot in the same direction he was originally standing in....
    456
  2307. A reviewer who drinks, and values quality over political talking points? I am ashamed for not subscribing sooner! Don't change, mate.
    456
  2308. I enjoyed this film, it certainly went in a direction I didn't expect around half way through.
    456
  2309. I loved how all the questions of the series were answered in a 20 min power point presentation at the end!! Amazing super hero story telling stuff!
    455
  2310. I watched this show and it was the first time in a while where I couldn’t predict exactly what was going to happen every episode
    455
  2311. It's literally the definition of insanity. They keep trying to do the same thing.. over and over and over again. Expecting different results. It just keeps plummeting.
    455
  2312. Merry early Christmas Drinker!!!! Thank you for making such good reviews and watching bad movies and series and giving your honest and whole hearted opinions while backing them up.
    455
  2313. You can tell that Critical Drinker has settled into the role and has improved his comedic timing.
    455
  2314. The line 'I used to be a brother' hit incredibly hard!
    455
  2315. The sad part about all this is that Leslye Headland is probably going to land on her feet with a straight-to-order show on FX or something. That's how their world works, these people never learn. Never mind that there are way more talented people deserving of a chance than her, she's got connections.
    454
  2316. Whenever I hear stuff like this, my first thought goes to Marcia Lucas. She was there from the very beginning of Star Wars and was just as instrumental as George in helping it come to life. So when people say that a woman is finally coming in to help make Star Wars stuff, I always think to myself, "Women have been there since the beginning. What are you talking about?"
    453
  2317. Feminist logic: the only way to make women empowered is to make men incompetent idiots. Why would men watch movies like this to get lectured?
    453
  2318. The situation with Amber Heard probably worked to this film's advantage. If it hadn't happened, then this would probably have been yet another film in which the "strong woman" became the main character and took out the antagonist (and probably became the president, I mean ruler, of Atlantis, etc. etc.). But with the external controversy resulting in a diminished part for Mera, for once the male characters were centre stage. And that in itself is refreshing. The fatherhood theme probably also got pushed to the forefront for this reason.
    452
  2319. Damn, the last time i was this early the drinker was still sober
    451
  2320. So nice to see Chris Hemsworth be used properly for action films…unlike flops like Thor Love & Thunder, Men in Black 4, or that GodAwful Ghostbusters 2016
    450
  2321. It sucks when a good movie has a bad ending, it can be the only thing that sticks with you after watching it instead of being able to appreciate the rest of the work
    450
  2322. Last Crusade was such a great send-off and conclusion to the trilogy.
    449
  2323. “A bunch of warrior nuns who run the place.” And to think, this show couldn’t get any more woke...
    449
  2324. Gladiator is my all-time favorite movie, Crowe is one of my all-time favorite actors and the Drinker is one of my all-time favorite YouTubers. This is freaking fantastic!
    448
  2325. 5:18 Speaking of "death's only funny when it happens to men", something way back in Cybrerpunk 2077 made an impression on me. Depending on which ending you choose to have, either the male Saul or the female Rogue dies at the exact same time, killed by the exact same boss. The male gets a gruesome death, despite him being a warrior, his head squished, and his defiled corpse remains for the rest of the game. The female, despite being super old, fights back and gets a heroic death, and her body disappears immediately, because it would've been too disrespectful for the game to keep her defiled corpse on the floor like it does with the male. Just a fun fact I noticed. One of billions.
    447
  2326. "Gganbu" (ep 6) made me have to put the show down for two days because it was so heartbreaking. It was obvious from the start how it was going to end but it still broke me. Amazing show.
    447
  2327. The fck up of Resident Evil really started when they got the literal perfect Jill Valentine (played by Sienna Guillory) and chose to make her a side-character. She could’ve carried the entire franchise—given her charisma, dedication to her role (with her even playing RE3 to better understand Jill), and her overall likability— with a far better script and plot.
    446
  2328. The action sequences destroyed the movie for me. Like they had to outdo the LotR trilogy.... it was ridiculously overdone.
    446
  2329. Kang losing to a bunch of highly evolved ants will forever be funny😂
    446
  2330. It's watchable. As revenge movie. As horror-gore-splatter movie is even satisfing. As action movie is not consistent because it doesn't have a decent rythm until the last 20 minutes.
    446
  2331. Thanks, Drinker. Thanks for your content. Maybe it's the 90's grunge kid in me...but it's good to hear people call the establishment out on their ideoligical garbage. I used to enjoy this escapism stuff. Used to ride by bike for miles to the comic shop to pick up my Wizard magazine and comics. Then I grew up and got a family and I was able to capture a little of that when I had kids. So, I used to love taking my sons to go see the movies and comic shops. I even suprised them by taking them out of school early to see Avengers when it first came out. Now due to the many reasons you list in your videos (awful writing, crapping on legacy characters, remakes, retcons, feminizing of men, etc)...they have completely destroyed a part of my life I used to hold so dear and I just want to watch it all burn. Every bit of it. Perhaps if all it burned, something beautiful would and powerful would be able to come out of it.
    445
  2332. The people making creative decisions aren't emotionally mature enough to conceive a competent and powerful villain, nor a protagonist that has to struggle.
    445
  2333. Arnold survives a nuclear explosion in this movie and he didn't need a refrigerator to do it!
    442
  2334. You took the Thanos meme "Fine, I'll do it myself" personally. Best of luck with this and all future endeavors 🍻
    442
  2335. How many more Spider-Man Movies do you plan to make, Marvel ? Marvel : "Nah, it'll be fine.."
    441
  2336. I hope in the first seconds of the movie the drinker says "Not updated for MODERN AUDIENCES"
    440
  2337. I loved the scene where Madame Web looked at the spider suit and said “It’ll be perfect, when it fits a woman!” Truly brave and inspiring!
    440
  2338. “I take no joy in this” Me when Tracy takes her clothes off
    439
  2339. I recall Katee Sackoff saying at one point that she felt like the catering budget alone for Mandalorian cost more than a whole season of Battlestar Galactica.
    439
  2340. As Bilbo said once, the Hobbit was like too little butter spread over too much bread. Thin and burnt out.
    438
  2341. If they Earth was to explode, Arya would still be alive
    438
  2342. Story time. I first watched this trilogy very recently in 2019. I was in university and had a pretty bad break up. I didn’t have a lot of friends because i was actually studying abroad in the UK. This is when i saw these 3 movies. These movies taught me the beauty and power in brotherhood comradely. My ex was vegan so the “Meat is back on the menu boys “ is still the funniest moment fit in a fantasy movie.
    437
  2343. Its easier to sell a theme than write something with substance. Jordan Peele is trying to EGOT
    437
  2344. Dan abnett is one of the best authors ever, and definitely under appreciated. He wrote a lot of great warhammer books, and even wrote comics and helped a lot with the guardians movies. I’m looking forward to Dan abnett writing the script for Eisenhorn for the 40K movie/series. He also wrote the book and it’s a masterpiece
    436
  2345. Yet another movie answer to a question no one asked.
    435
  2346. This sounds like someone had a fantastic idea for a one-season TV show and then HBO ordered a second season and they had no idea what to do.
    435
  2347. Every second movie nowadays is a “masterpiece”. It just goes to show how meaningless that word has become. Also, although the title of the video says the film is surprisingly good… Drinker’s review of it really makes it sound mediocre. Like talking about lacklustre character, bad dialogue and being emotionally manipulative instead of properly well developed. It just sounds like generic modern sludge. Pretty pictures with lacklustre writing.
    434
  2348. Donald Sutherland was giving off negative waves in this movie man.
    434
  2349. I wish the writer who made movies/shows like this were still in the game. On first glance this movie should not be as good as it is, but it is so well written.
    434
  2350. Genuinely read an article that was written not 2 weeks ago about this movie, where Paul Feig blamed the backlash and negative reviews on ‘white males who weren’t ready for this film’ Unbelievable.
    434
  2351. We really don’t.
    433
  2352. I’ve been trying to write a book for a bit and one rule I’ve always held myself to is… Death is permanent
    433
  2353. A story we didn’t need, made for a modern audience that doesn’t exist.
    432
  2354. Going in to the theater today with my brothers to celebrate one of their birthdays Not expecting much from it, especially after this review, but I'm sure we'll enjoy it nonetheless as a dumb popcorn movie
    432
  2355. “He’s like your typical vegan, only less preachy.” CD Perfect synopsis.
    432
  2356. This is the dream, isn't Drinker? The perfect example of "if you want something done right, do it yourself." I would pay for a whole theater to watch this movie.
    432
  2357. The Boys has become the Rick and Morty of the super hero genre. Everybody who watches it thinks they "get it" and that they are oh so smart for getting it, and then they turn around and act pretentious towards those who they perceive as not getting it.
    431
  2358. From the moment this episode ended, I could only think of one thing, your review. Thank you for that.
    431
  2359. Oliver Reed, legend, died in a pub in Malta drinking and arm wrestling sailor's, which lead to the heart attack, still down to earth and being a man's man right till the end.
    431
  2360. "YOU get a strong female character! And YOUU get a strong female character!"
    430
  2361. I agree, and feel so sad what they did to Star Trek, when i was a little girl my dad used to watch Star Trek with me, it had emotional impact. It had a message, it brought one to dream and think. Now it feels only like they throw crybabys at us with no real story aside from doing checkmarks for DEI. I want the old TNG feeling back.
    429
  2362. Master and Commander stands as one of the best Naval action/adventure films ever made. The script is brilliant, the actors are perfectly cast and deliver brilliantly, the direction as good as it gets, editing and action sequences done to perfection. I own the disc and rewatch it regularly. Same with Cinderella Man. If my wife and I are able to sit down together and watch a film and still be talking about it days later then it has to meet a very high bar. Loved it.
    429
  2363. Hi Drinker . Thanks for another year of reviews. A very important , but not always recognised ,artistic service . We will see you again , next year . :)
    429
  2364. The limb removal part is supposed to be one of the early hints that Ethan has been infected with the mold, just like the Baker family. His infection gets progressively worse as the game goes on as the mold spreads to his brain (as some of the files in the game explain), which is why you can see and hear apparitions of Eveline later in the game, just like the Bakers did. Yeah, I guess you could say it is a little goofy, but no more so than Jack Baker's regeneration too.
    428
  2365. The more I hear about this movie, the more I understand why it's not playing in our local theatre. Not sure if I'm disappointed by that or not.
    428
  2366. Wait, a movie I actually WANT to support with my money? How does one do that in 2024? Its been 20 years since I paid for a movie.
    427
  2367. "Jesus, the first world war was wrapped up quicker than this thing" And there goes my coffee
    427
  2368. Trap: 40% Good concept for a thriller 60% Terrible execution that makes a promising concept forgettable. Great video drinker. 🎉
    426
  2369. My daughter is doing a project on sci-fi for her English class, comparing utopian vs distopian visions, and asked for my help. The only utopian universe I could think of was Star Trek. I guess that's not true anymore.
    426
  2370. When they kill Morgan Freeman, stick his body on the porch of the bar and they're all like: "Na it'll be fine..." and then Clint turns up and shoots the landlord and Little Bill is all like: "Well sir, you are a cowardly son of a bitch. You just shot an unarmed man." and Clint's like: "He should have armed himself....... if he's going to decorate his saloon with my friend." Fucking awesome.
    426
  2371. You literally had "Strong Women" in the form of Jill, Ada, Claire, Sheva, and Sherry. And they couldn't even be bothered to make them characters in this show. THAT alone tells me this show was not made by people who are fans of the video games :/
    426
  2372. To the creators of Lord of the Rings Trilogy... My friends, you bow to no one!
    425
  2373. Ridley Scott: "I'm gonna ret-con the Alien franchise! You fans will love it!" Alien fans: "Uh, no. We're not interested in Alien since you barfed out Prometheus." Ridley Scott: "I'm glad you want it - here's Alien: Covenant! Movie studio - pay me!"
    424
  2374. I think people are raving about it so much because it's a modern movie that isn't too bad comparatively, and isn't overloaded with subpar CGI.
    424
  2375. It's amazing to me how Marvel developed a brand long enough to make it a money printing machine and then promptly forgot how the machine worked.
    423
  2376. Saw Sisu without watching the trailers only hearing that it was basically John Wick if he killed Nazis and it was sick. It’s basically a show don’t tell masterclass with some really over the top moments and no shortage of brutal kills. Heard there might be a sequel which I hope is not true cause I think it works well as a stand alone film.
    422
  2377. "If you pulled your finger out of Dina, none of this would have happened" - Wise Critical Drinker 2020 LOL
    421
  2378. I genuinely feel sorry for SOME of the actors. It’s tough to turn Star Wars down, and they just keep getting awful scripts, with terrible characters to play!
    420
  2379. DeNiro and DiCaprio both in a Scorsese movie together. I didn’t think the day would ever come
    419
  2380. You don't create an OC as your main character when you already have Liu Kang in your Mortal Kombat movie.
    419
  2381. "There can be only one" really should be the current mantra for movie fans
    418
  2382. The fortitude and creative wit of Tolkien fans holding their ground made it for me, not to mention the hugely entertaining cottage industry RoP spawned on YouTube. Thanks for the memories, mate. Happy New Year and all the best for 2023.
    418
  2383. My wife's favorite movie, of all time. We set the projector on the side of the house and watched it on the fourth of July.
    418
  2384. The best part about Dredd is the fact that it feels like everything that happens in the movie is just a regular day in the life of a judge
    418
  2385. I was watching this yesterday and turned it off after 40 minutes. Nothing happened after 40 minutes. So disappointed. It was literally trying too hard to be funny.
    417
  2386. genuinely one of my favorite films from the past few years. Tense, experiential and truly immersive.
    417
  2387. "Don't forget your stick Lieutenant" "Righto sir. I'd hate to face a German Machine gun without it"
    416
  2388. "I've drunk things you wouldn't believe. Amaretto on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched Jim Beam glitter near the Anheuser brewery gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like beers in rain. Time for rye." 😂

  2393. Jar jar abrams making ep 9: «nah it’ll be fine»
    414
  2394. A well-balanced, not too enraged and not too perky GO AWEIGH NAO. I'm guessing the influx of decent movies is doing wonders for your liver, Mr. Drinker.
    413
  2395. It’s unfortunate that Disney is ruining Marvel before we get the mutants integrated. That should have been their premier franchise and they’ve messed the bed before even using them.
    413
  2396. Disney finally achieved another impossible feat since non lethal lightsaber
    413
  2397. In my opinion, any Star Wars not done by Lucas, isn’t Star Wars at all.
    413
  2398. One of my biggest regrets was not seeing Shin Godzilla in theaters. I was not going to make the same mistake twice.
    412
  2399. This is one of the few times I'll say the movie was better than the book. R. Lee Ermey really makes this movie. His improv is unsurpassed.
    412
  2400. The show runner saying that some people watch the show coz they think homelander is the hero is like saying people liked silence of the lambs coz they thought hannibal was a good guy 😂
    410
  2401. Starwars isn't a corpse. It's a grave. Disney has been grave robbing the same grave over and over again hoping they'll find somthing different everytime they pick up the shovel.
    410
  2402. IMO, the movie is a 6/10 Without Stallone its a 2/10
    409
  2403. When we needed him the most, he came to the rescue.
    409
  2404. I love this movie, because it's the only movie that my wife is afraid of.
    408
  2405. Kirk wavering and breaking stride as he gives Spock's eulogy is more impactful and grief stricken than anyone bawling and weeping. Actors and directors have forgotten how to be subtle.
    408
  2406. Rosa Salazar just needs to stay away from those rats writing Star Trek.
    407
  2407. I liked the over the top way they wrote off Charles. It befits the campy humour, and made their disdain for the disgraced Jeffrey Jones quite clear.
    407
  2408. Chaves and Ventura are actual Vietnam veterans. They move like soldiers because they were soldiers. The movie is absurd, but at the same time, takes itself so seriously you have to take it seriously too. I love how the Predator moves. An a large, apex predator moves with a confident directness. Deliberate, almost heavy. But purposeful. Hall does this masterfully.
    407
  2409. "I can't wait for Marvel to start making shows designed to appeal to heterosexual men, who enjoy seeing kick-ass heroes, guns, action, explosions, and hot women." YES!!!
    407
  2410. One of my favorite things about your channel is that you don't just critique. You offer alternatives and creative solutions to plot holes and drag. 👍🎉
    406
  2411. And nothing of value was lost... Well, 180 million was lost. Oh. Nevermind.
    406
  2412. Guys, Dom's bro was there from the beginning, we just couldn't see him!
    406
  2413. Tbh, before I discovered you're channel, I often felt like I was just spouting nonsense as no one really seemed interested. Glad there is someone out there, putting out their of frustration with modern entertainment and the lack of quality therein. Keep up the work Drinker.
    405
  2414. My favorite part is when the chef is talking to the assistant of the actor and asks her which school she went to for her degree. He was about to let her go until he finds out that she didn’t have student loans so he went “I’m sorry. You’re dying.”
    405
  2415. Everyone likes movies that feel like a lecture. Right?
    405
  2416. Golden company meeting the night king in the afterlife: Night king: You too?
    405
  2417. I like how, previously, Bazil was suspicious of Mae, even attacked her and seemingly told Sol so that he could stun her. Then, as soon as she woke up and she escaped, Bazil sabotaged the ship so that she could get away. So, he was responsible for both her capture and her escape, all seemingly only hours apart.
    404
  2418. Well, the mandalorian is better than the whole sequel trilogy, at least it has character development
    403
  2419. history repeats itself. first part was better than the second

    402
  2422. Fun fact: Dan Abnett also wrote for Marvel comics and the look of the Guardians actually came from his 2008 run when he consulted for the movie. As for the suits, Drinker; those are the suits from the 2008 CB run so as a fan of that run I was happy to see them. Though, they could have been a bit brighter. As for this movie, I like it but as you said it is riddled with problems. The stuff that works, like Rocket and High Evolutionary were great, but as you said the jokes, and the plot holes really do add up. I still can't bring myself to hate this movie like Ant-man 3 or Phase four, but it's clear that Gunn needed someone else to reign him in and this movie needed to be rewritten a bit to remove some of the dumb elements. All in all, it's a 7.5//10 for me personally even with these problems.
    402
  2423. This ship is deeper than the titanic when the rats who did all this decided to jump ship.
    401
  2424. Remember how EXCITED I/We once were at the sight of a Star Wars trailer?? Here we are months away and i feel....NOTHING......THANK YOU LAST JEDI!!! This is crazy. I never thought i would see this day.
    401
  2425. The sludge must flow!
    400
  2426. The fact that this movie turned out to be one of the better Saw sequels is absolutely surprising. Especially that it's written by the same duo who wrote Jigsaw and Spiral and directed by the guy who directed Saw VI and Saw 3D. I guess third time's the charm for them, lol.
    400
  2427. when they forged the rings and then said "we finally are.... The Lord of the Rings" i got chills
    399
  2428. Dont care what you do. I found you through GOT and I am glad I did. So I'll watch whatever you put out. You're on my top 5 but don't see your videos out as much as I'd like so get on the ball.
    399
  2429. Please keep doing these reviews of Game of Thrones because with the shite this show has turned in to, your reviews are the only satisfaction I get from watching this disappointing mess. Cheers man!
    399
  2430. I especially liked the dothraki charge, because it reminded me of the all the cavalry I've lost auto-resolving battles in Total War: Rome II.
    398
  2431. Blackadder ending music theme from series 4 gets me every time.
    398
  2432. Man, the 1980s were dark times for video games. There (Phantasy Star) were (Metroid) no (Ninja Princess) strong (Ms Pac Man) female (The Wing of Madoola) protagonists (Valis) in (Athena) video (KiKi KaiKai) games (Layla) at (The Guardian Legend) all.
    398
  2433. Being able to be this relentlessly sarcastic for a whole video is a skill. Hilarious.
    397
  2434. Watched this 3 days ago, absolutely loved it. Unbelievable acting by the main young guys. Absolutely perfect viewing.
    396
  2435. When James Cameron feels like James Cameron, James Cameron can James Cameron into the great James Cameron that James Cameron once was...
    396
  2436. Reason I hold Rogue One and Andor so close is because they are literally the only things after the Disney purchase that are actually worthy of Lucasfilm.
    395
  2437. That Jeremy Renner interview you edited is sarcastic perfection!
    395
  2438. The last time I was this early, Star Wars wasn't in the blood-stained hands of Disney yet.
    394
  2439. Irony is that Thanos the character was originally based on Darkseid (in the same way that Deadpool is based on Deathstroke).
    394
  2440. New Critical Drinker video pops up... Me: "Source of power, should draw from it."
    394
  2441. If the TVA hunts down variants that alter the times, shouldn’t they have chased down Capt. America, since he went back so he could screw his woman in her prime and have his happy ending? I mean how many timelines did Capt. Ruin?
    393
  2442. Wasn't the gauntlet made specially by the dwarf .....by using the power of an undying star.........how in the hell did they make it on earth.....to channel such an immense power...of the stones
    393
  2443. Finally, been waiting for your reaction. As I expected, didn’t disappoint 😂
    393
  2444. Imagine being so out of ideas for a show with literally infinite possibilities for creative storytelling that you unironically rip off Eight Legged Freaks.
    393
  2445. I'm surprised they pushed out things like Agatha and Echo but couldn't manage Blade. Like wtf are their priorities?
    392
  2446. I hated Into Darkness as well! They should never have tried to recreate Wrath of Khan.
    392
  2447. Dredd: "Are you ready rookie?" Anderson: "yes" Dredd: "you don't look ready.." After going through levels of shït Dredd: Are you ready rookie..... Anderson "......" Dredd: "You look Ready"
    392
  2448. They way they handled his death was total class, and should be considered the benchmark..
    392
  2449. I love how we're getting more older movie recommendations. Because I'm going through older movies with my kids, rediscovering the joy I found in them before and seeing them discover it too. We're definitely all tired of modern Hollywood. Thank you Drinker
    392
  2450. The WaterWorld attraction at Universal Studios is still one of the most entertaining attractions there though. Real people and real practical effects used
    392
  2451. Reminds me of Disney's Wish. It's made around $244.1 million which is rather respectable in a bubble, but due to the budget being an unjustifiable $200 million, it's seen as yet another flop for the company. Where all the money goes during production I will never know.
    391
  2452. You need to make more of these. Forget the garbage coming out of Hollywood and find the good stuff. You generally have good taste in film and so I’m interested to see your recommendations.
    391
  2453. They said Brando locked himself in his trailer and literally ate several whole pizzas daily while they made this film. You could see in "Apocalypse Now" that he was morbidly obese even during the late '70s. It's absolutely amazing that he even lived to age 80.
    390
  2454. While I did love Wanda as a villain in this movie, her character just didn’t make much sense to me. WandaVision ends with her feeling ashamed bc she enslaved a whole town due to her selfish wants. The whole series was about her overcoming and grief and accepting reality. Yet here you see her killing several ppl and endangering others all bc she wants to live with her kids. So what was the point of all that character development if she’s just gonna act even more evil than she did previously? I know they said the darkhold was corrupting her but still. It was just so weird.
    389
  2455. Can you imagine that happening today? A director saying "Ya. I was young, naive, and beyond stupid. The crew hated me. I thought my career was over by the end of it." nowadays? Someone with humility and understanding just how lucky he got with that movie in the end? I don't think modern directors could conceive of being in the wrong. Let alone any production as hard as the ones that feature on Production Hell.
    389
  2456. What's really insane when you think about it is there's no reason in the world for this movie to cost this much. Indiana Jones is an old school pulp action hero. This movie should cost half to one third that budget. What you get when you have architects instead of engineers.
    389
  2457. A good parent would say, "Grow up! No more rabbit for you, girl."
    389
  2458. Yep, they showed me how it's done. In the movie called Alita Battle Angel. Go and see it guys.
    388
  2459. Classic Tomb Raider - Badass, intelligent, confident, tough as bolts, gunz blazing, femme fetale Adventurer and explorer. Reboot Tomb Raider - Mopey, frightened, guilt ridden rich girl with daddy issues. Me: Where have I seen this before? Samus: Cough cough....
    388
  2460. You seriously need to make a t-shirt that just says "Oh, f*** off, film."
    388
  2461. That hit hard. I'm not sure who just said goodbye to us, James Kirk or William Shatner. It's right that he decides how the journey ends. Thank you Bill, for everything.
    388
  2462. The newly widowed Mrs Glug and her gluggles will now have to rely on benefits from Sauron's government to survive
    387
  2463. The funny thing is, this IS a feminist movie...the female character ends up a total badass. But it's an earned transformation, there's nothing forced about it. So good.
    387
  2464. This is precisely why I enjoy the Critical Drinker. You don't get all pretentious and jaded Even when you see the flaws in a movie you still sing its praises where it is deserved. And you call out the hidden gems that get lost in the sea of garbage that is being made today. Thanks Drinker!
    387
  2465. Star Wars Trailer drops. Critical drinker: give my beer.
    386
  2466. 'go away now' Me: but I just subscribed
    386
  2467. Napoleon was such an interesting microcosm in history. A person who shouldn't have been able to make a mark on history, according to the rules of society. Yet he defines an entire era of Europe.
    386
  2468. I love how the 2014 Godzilla movie was all serious and grounded but now it's come to this. XD
    386
  2469. The Emperor Protects!
    385
  2470. Oooh, what’s next? A huge debate with MauLer? Because he seems to REALLY love this!
    385
  2471. “In a market fill by brain dead action franchises and endless bland, predictable comic book films” Damn, as harsh as that was I don’t think anyone really could’ve said it better
    384
  2472. I have been a Star Trek Fan for 50 years, and I can tell you, this show is not Star Trek, it just has the label slapped on it...sad.
    384
  2473. That 18 minutes and 46 second review was more entertaining than the entire season 8 of GOT. Fantastic lol 😁
    384
  2474. I remember picking up some early issues of Ms. Marvel, curious about the challenge the writing staff had laid out for themselves. How was a young Muslim girl going to juggle her superhero activities while her family wanted her to have a male family member escorting her while out of the house? No, not an issue, she's off alone at all times, joining various superhero chapters and marching in pride parades. The Muslim identity was an aesthetic wrapped around the same American teenage superhero they were doing anyway. It could have been an interesting concept in the hands of skilled writers who weren't just pandering with surface level diversity.
    383
  2475. Remember when movies used practical effects, and took the time to get each shot just right, and then some well placed music to complete what you were looking at. Remember you could watch them 20 times and still keep finding gems of love you didn't notice before. Remember we had real movies.
    383
  2476. This movie is overwhelming and excellent. It is harrowing and "political" without being divisive or playing the identity politics game. The last time I left a theater that was as silent as this afterwards was American Sniper. This movie jumps to the top of the list of essential viewing for 21st century cinema, nuclear annihilation has been threatening our existence for decades and we as a society have fallen too silent to both this fact and the fact that these weapons are in the hands of vindictive and evil people. Nolan has outdone himself
    383
  2477. Warp travel without a Gellar field? “Nah, it’ll be fine!”
    383
  2478. I find it hilarious how Adam Warlock destroys an entire town by simply flying through it, but somehow doesn't turn Nebula into a pile of guts when throwing her at a wall.
    382
  2479. Ripley sums it up very well, "Did people's IQ drop so low, while I was away". Will we ever again see films with creativity, great story line, very good acting and the ability to scare you as ALIEN did back in 1979 - sadly, somehow I don't think so?
    381
  2480. Josh Hartnett is absolutely due for a comeback.
    381
  2481. The fact Sweetbaby still refuses to acknowledge they screwed up and are in the wrong, is just so indicative of how entitled many companies and people are today. Like they believe they are owed success regardless of what they do and then blame everyone except themselves when they don't succeed.
    381
  2482. The game itself is amazing but it NEEDED more content. The A and B scenarios are way too similar.
    381
  2483. Jesus, the fact that the BBC, as well as Davies and his production team, cannot fathom the idea that someone who is disabled could be evil, let alone a bad person is just staggering. It just kills any of sort of creative spark for the sake of pandering to a toxic mindset.
    381
  2484. Thanks for all the pleasure you've given me, Drinker! Far more than the sh!t most films have become. Happy New Year to you & yours, and thanks also for the uplifting close! (Things have got to get better sometime, don't they?)
    381
  2485. Just like Heartbreak Ridge, this movie is loved by all Marines. We watched this movie religiously. Semper FI!
    379
  2486. “You thought The Batman was the furthest out of left field Robert Pattinson was going to swing for?”
    379
  2487. fun fact: kinskis rants were endlessly quotable. he was hands-down insane, but when he got riled up his mind got focused and sharp.
    379
  2488. Yeah, I hate this version of an alternative timeline or whatever. What a waste of Leonard Nimoy
    379
  2489. You know what what Rebel Moon didn't have enough of? Slow-mo and exposition! Problem solved with Rebel Moon: Scar Giver. Thanks, Zach Snyder!
    378
  2490. The Bronn scene looked like it was written by Tommy Wiseau: Bronn: Oh hai Tyrion. Oh hai Jaime. I have from really far come to kill you!! Tyrion: What! I’ll pay you more! Bronn: haha, great don’t worry about it! Look at the time! I have to go. Bai Tyrion, bai Jaime!
    378
  2491. As far as I'm concerned, there are only 6 star wars movies. Cheers drinker, that speech at the end is monumental. You nailed it perfectly. Corporate greed and ideological liberalism have destroyed one of the greatest stories ever. So sad
    378
  2492. I'm pretty sure my exact words to my brother after we saw this movie were: "I have no idea what happened, but I liked it for some reason."
    377
  2493. years ago i wanted a kinda "law and order" show with Jennifer Walters and Matt Murdock, barely acknowledging the fact they are superheroes this show is not what i had in mind
    377
  2494. the dining room "scene" reminded me of the original Texas chain saw movie
    377
  2495. I wince when I see Kathy’s name in the Mandalorian credits. 😣
    377
  2496. That shot of the zombies on the hill with the tree and sunlight behind them as they run at the camera is scarier than anything I’ve seen in the last few years.
    376
  2497. Sofia Falcone is a template for how to create a strong, compelling, complex female character. She was absolutely riveting in every scene, and didn't once complain about the patriarchy!
    376
  2498. What she did to Star Wars is beyond redemption and unforgivable
    375
  2499. "Well, he shoulda armed himself." Unforgiven and Tombstone; two of the greats.
    375
  2500. I always instinctively get drunk before watching your videos
    375
  2501. How do you know when a modern movie features strong female characters? Trust me, they'll tell you.
    374
  2502. "Cancel culture" and "Misunderstood villains" existing at the same time is some sort of sick irony...
    374
  2503. When did it become controversial or unpopular to have a hero just be a hero? Anti heroes and vigilantes have their place, but heroes should too.
    374
  2504. Kevin Smith cries at marvel movies more than I've cried in my life
    374
  2505. Just saw the movie and I didn't see Napoleon on the screen, I just saw Joaquin Phoenix. It's not just because he was too old and didn't look like him. Ciarán Hinds didn't look like Caesar in HBO Rome, but I still saw Caesar because he did such a fantastic job in his performance.
    373
  2506. I don’t know when writers will realize that Lara is more Connery’s Bond than Nathan from Uncharted
    373
  2507. When I was in film school my directing instructor talked about his experience trying to make a small low budget sci-fi movie on a budget of 1 million. He was confident that was more than enough to make the film effectively, but his producer strong-armed him into hiring 3 to 4 times the crew required purely because it made the producer feel better about having a lot of people on set. The problem, is that all the extra people took up all the budget and all they really did was sit around and do nothing because the work required wasn't anywhere enough for the amount of people they had on set. As a result, he had to shoot twice the normal page count per day in order to get the film finished on time and budget, which meant that he had to use bad takes, botched scenes, and major compromises which ultimately ruined the film. Even amongst experienced producers, there's a degree of idiocy that makes that kid who sniffed glue and ate crayons in kindergarten look like a genius.
    373
  2508. Man your videos scratch that itch that I cant seem to find. I think that Dave Chappelle said it best "I think deep down we are all feminists in some way. We all have mothers and sisters and daughters that we want to see them do well in life." They dont have any real villains to fight so they create them. It's all rooted in hubris and a fear of criticism.
    372
  2509. "It's like watching a Greta Thunberg speech performed by Tommy Wiseau on acid" – outstanding, sir! 👍
    372
  2510. Fixing a shallow, hollow, unlikable character like Rey has granted The Drinker the Ultimate Jedi Power (tm)
    372
  2511. I remember hearing about this thing called "The Blue Curtain effect" and I was like Hmm. What's this? Basically, it goes: 'The curtains in the living room were a pale shade of blue.' Your English teacher: "The blue curtains represent the author's sadness and struggles through life." Author of book: "The curtains were just fucking blue." Moral of story: Don't read too deep into every little thing.
    370
  2512. Another example of the story of the movie’s hellish production being more interesting than the movie itself.
    370
  2513. Drinker absolutely nailed it! Fincher and Fassbender always deliver and The Killer is no exception. Go into it knowing it's a more mature movie that requires the audience to have patience and you'll get a very rewarding cinematic experience.
    370
  2514. When they mentioned he ran to the Andromeda Galaxy I had the same thought. It's the kind of thing someone with absoutly no understanding about the universe comes up with. They just know the average person watching at least knows about the Andromeda Galaxy... so ya that's where he went. A good example of how rediculous this is is that the entire Star Trek series takes place in a corner of our own Milky Way Galaxy. The Borg even came from just another part of the Milky Way the Federation hadn't gotten to yet. The entire Star Trek Series Voyager was just about how it would take the ship over 70 years at maximum warp speed just to get from one part of the Milky Way back home to Federation space. To even fathom near present day technology somehow managing to bridge the gap between here and Andromeda is so fantasically stupid it's wild.
    370
  2515. Yeah, the idea that just in Picard's life time the Federation would become hostile to the idea of peace with a long-time enemy, and offer compassionate help to an entire race facing extinction is a bit far-fetched. Plus, as Drinker mentioned, what about all the habitable planets in the Romulan Empire? Plot has gaps bigger, deeper, and more insurmountable than a supermassive black hole...
    369
  2516. the "passing the torch" is a bit far fetched. nothing will ever fill the shoes of the original Marvel heroes. I predict a grueling future, where the marvel franchise will get mercilessly milked tp a point where its thinner than water. I loved endgame, and most of all. I loved that brie larson had pretty much no screen time in it.
    369
  2517. Surely being Scottish and drinking JD is risking causing a tear in the space-time continuum
    369
  2518. My favorite part of the movie is that he never even tries to negotiate a way for the company to mine the substance Earth desperately needs before deciding to mount an armed conflict and essentially damn mankind, despite that being the whole reason he's there. You had one job. One job.
    368
  2519. "I AM NOT A MERRY MAN!" lol, Michael Dorn displays more charisma in those couple of seconds than every actor on this series from beginning to end combined.
    366
  2520. Honestly, Drinker, I'd love to hear your take on other games now, too, new and old. Seeing you happy is far better than seeing you disappointed in today's films.
    366
  2521. Finally you watched it! J.K. Simmons deserved the Oscar he received for this movie.
    365
  2522. It's both genius and sad that in 20 mins one man can fix an entire shit trilogy that took a decade to film and ruined a franchise that started 40 years ago. When you see videos like this you come to realize Jesus Christ it doesn't take much to be a screenwriter and director in Hollywood does it? The drinker is a legend. Go away now
    365
  2523. I will never not laugh at that moment with Spoon and the hammer
    363
  2524. It's kind of like they had a few ideas for a Falcon and Winter Soldier series and went "Fuck it, let's just do them all at once".
    363
  2525. "Now clearly this doesn't fix every issue with the movie" - The Drinker batting 95 out of 100
    362
  2526. "It was very cliched. It was very routine running up and down corridors and silly monsters. It’s very much what the audience was expecting. It’s not really very challenging for them to watch. It’s a very traditional sort of thing that people would expect Doctor Who to fall into. It would be nice to have something totally different from the norm, just for a change." - Wise words from Chris Chibnall in 1986
    362
  2527. Your channel is probably the only place where I will watch parts of future star wars.
    361
  2528. This video was so stunning, brave, powerful, inclusive and diverse. #FreeBleed
    360
  2529. Agreeing with everything said. Film was decent, not great for me.
    360
  2530. The scary thing is, the best scenes so far are ideas from the actors, NOT the writers. Its scary but honestly pretty obvious that Starr understands Homelander better than the writers do, and had to stop them with his "Coming Home" scene idea before they went ahead with theirs purely for shock value. Where we got a twisted, emotionally unstable Homelander drifting back and forth between childlike confusion and regret to adult anger and sadness, the writers just wanted Homelander to just fly in, killl a bunch of people and then leave. Sure, murder-boner, yay, but it holds so little weight compared to the tension and the scenes we actually got.
    360
  2531. We’ve been so spoiled this year with both The Penguin and Shogun.
    360
  2532. This was such a great, straight-forward, and wholesome movie in a year cluttered with messes; easily one of my favorites.
    359
  2533. My young brother told me this was a good movie. I dont have a young brother anymore.
    357
  2534. am so mad about last jedi, that i can listen to its criticism 24/7 everyday
    357
  2535. My 7yo daughter said the movie looks disgusting. I'm so proud of her.
    357
  2536. Actor who plays the ghoul is carrying the show at the moment. It's nice to watch.
    357
  2537. "...well, it truly IS a wonderful life." Oh, you soppy old boozer, you.
    356
  2538. I really miss the park, the show sorta lost it’s identity when they exaped the park and now we have some sci fi cyberpunk crap instead. And delores is just evil for the sake of it now.
    356
  2539. Should've been a fantastic 4 movie introducing DR. Doom as the primary antagonist for the entire phase 4 with Galactus as the over arching villain.
    356
  2540. Hold on. You mention TV sci-fi heroines and not a single image of Commander Susan Ivanova from Babylon 5?
    356
  2541. Yes! I’m so happy you talked about this one. You wouldn’t be able to get away with JK Simmons’ dialogue these days Hahaha
    356
  2542. The issue of having no quiet moments, or even everyone talking at once seems common today. Lots of great older movies had moments with no dialogue or music at all. Those actors, directors, cinematographers etc could sell a scene without constantly pandering to the audience's inner ADD.
    355
  2543. I was expecting “man with glowing eyes” to be described as “6 foot Jawa” 😂
    355
  2544. Fun fact: had Jurassic World, the park, followed the same protocols used in actual zoos, none of this shit would have happened. You don't go into a dangerous animal enclosure until you have a positive ID on the animal's location. You don't just guess that the tiger isn't in there anymore. And when you think a dangerous animal has escaped, you issue a Code Red that involves getting every person in the zoo into a secured location while animal control hunts it down. Like, fuck. And you don't let people just kayak among your largest animals. Or give them free range in hamster balls. Jeez. And that's the least of my annoyances with both movies. They're perfect examples of these modern remakes, reboots, and disingenuous sequels that just regurgitate tropes and images of the originals without understanding how they actually worked to create good movies. Bullshit Colin Trevorrow's Star Wars would have been better. He's the a-hole responsible for Jurassic World.
    355
  2545. Sweet Baby inc. Deserves all the backlash
    355
  2546. I love the part where Galadriel yells, “this is Sparta” and pedals away on her bike through the air with an alien in the front basket with all her pals.
    353
  2547. I fucking lost it when the Drinker started the USA USA chant.
    353
  2548. "Is that a personal attack or something?" Never gets old 😂😂 Adam Driver did the right thing, distancing himself. He followed in Robert Pattinson's footsteps after Twilight. Wise move
    353
  2549. Congrats on the 2 million subscriber milestone! It's about damn time. Thanks for years of entertainment, especially all of the laughs.
    352
  2550. I found a little Funny, while looking into the history - the original "Nosferatu" was the one and only movie made by that studio. They made it, got the proceeds and immediately declared bankruptcy, so they wouldn't have to pay the widow of Bram Stoker a dime in copyright fees.
    352
  2551. I watched season one and this is highly recommended. The season builds really well no one is safe. 10/10.
    352
  2552. Can’t get over Jade saying the zombies aren’t dead, their brain has been rewritten. Cut to zombies trapped underwater than coming to life when brought on board.
    351
  2553. Aubrey Plaza is one of those actress where you can have that discussion that she might not be the greatest of actresses working today but her career should be better than it has turned out
    351
  2554. i loved the part when gladriel said "it's gladdening time" and used the power of feminism against sauron
    351
  2555. Last of Us Part II Joel: "Hey random heavily armed strangers sneaking around our home, my names Joel, Joel Miller, and this here is my brother Tommy, sure is nice to meet you, lemme tell you about the time I killed a bunch of doctors to save my adopted daughter." Last of Us Joel: Sees man in road begging for help. "Oh he ain't even hurt." Proceeds to run over man with pickup truck.
    350
  2556. one of the things that always made me smile was when Kinski was screaming at Wherzog and the German-English translator just gave up.
    350
  2557. You hit the nail on the head. After seeing this with a friend, we discussed how much better the movie could've been. In the end, a complete rewrite is what this movie needs...
    348
  2558. The problem with Thrawn has been there since he was first reintroduced in Rebels, where he was constantly on the backfoot and spouting cope like "no, I am four steps ahead of those puny teenage rebels, I merely allow them to make me look stupid as I locate their main base", with his vampire organ theme and his Blizzard game voice acting. He was never actually allowed to do anything wrong, even though Filoni wasn't brave enough to give him any significant victories over his beloved heroes. Fans just forgave it because they remembered him from the old Legends trilogy back in the 90s where he was a legitimately badass villain, and he had a hype train building from his new books reintroducing him into canon. In this show though, he's fat, middle-aged and looks constipated (Rebels Thrawn is clearly shown to be in shape and an expert martial artist), and seeing him in live-action was the last thing fans were holding on to before they gave up on Star Wars forever. OG Legends Thrawn was frightening because he had a clear plan, a cool-headed analysis of the empire's situation, and a roadmap to victory that allowed for things to occasionally go wrong. He knew what was important and what was a trivial defeat that wouldn't matter in the long run. That's what actually smart leaders do. It's what Gendo does in Evangelion. He's fully focused on his plan and he doesn't care at all about things that aren't important. Disney's Thrawn has consistently fumbled around trying to look like a mastermind when actually he has no idea what he's doing.
    348
  2559. One of the producers of Jurassic World literally said Jurassic Park is "inherently unfranchiseable". And yet here we are. Again.
    347
  2560. What I appreciate about Princess Peach is that she’s supportive and caring to everyone, which makes her likable and rootable.
    346
  2561. The worst episode ever you say? Chris Chibnall "Challenge accepted!"
    346
  2562. When the orchestra started playing the dramatic music, I started laughing my ass off to the point of insanity. Snyder has truly achieved making a movie so bad that its impossible not to rip apart
    346
  2563. The correct attitude to the use of CGi is to remember that it is one more tool in the tool box - it is not the entire tool box. You need the right tool for each job, and there certainly are situations where CGI is that right tool - usually when it would be entirely impractical or too heinously dangerous to achieve the effect any other way - but much of the time CGI works best in a supplementary role, helping to enhance a practical effects based scene by subtly tweaking the odd variable here and there when it is needed in an unobtrusive manner. When it comes to CGI, the old saying that 'less is more' generally holds true.
    346
  2564. It is SUCH a shame they stopped making it. I found it a couple years ago, got invested, then realized theyd stopped making it. And i was like... WTF!?!?...WHY?
    346
  2565. I enjoyed Season 1 much better. The actor was a little smaller which made sense given the nomadic lifestyle of the character, Roscoe and the Tweed Tornado had different ways of dealing with Reacher, Roscoe and Reacher’s chemistry and interest felt organic and realistic, each of the trio had something to contribute, mercenaries who posed a serious threat, and Reacher himself was a LOT smarter. Contrast the S2 group of 4. Less for Reacher to do, fewer cold reads on enemies, no ex military baddies who posed a challenge in combat, even with 4 characters it felt bloated, and an antagonist who seemed very smart quick-thinking and resourceful who never poses a direct threat to Reacher and gets shot very un-climatically. However, I will check out S3 and hope they learn from mistakes of S2.
    345
  2566. The character sacrifice the Drinker speaks of is one of the most moving things I've ever seen on a television show. Good review and good show.
    345
  2567. The scene where sword Bae is fighting 5 men alone and there are like 20 villagers hiding behind tables with guns not even trying to help while she gets hacked apart was another crowning achievement in "Why?"
    344
  2568. When the only funny scene in an uncharted film is when Sully enters a Papa Jones, you know you reached a new low.
    344
  2569. Whenever someone writes a character as 'Muslim', or indeed any religion, I always ask how much does her faith apply to her? Because you can definitely make a really cool religious superhero, the issue is applying their faith in a way that makes sense and requires a deep understanding of the faith in question, which most people just don't bother to do. And from what I've seen good religious characters are in short supply, the last really badass one was Joshua Graham from New Vegas
    344
  2570. That... was the kindest and nicest "Go away now," I have ever heard in my life. 💖
    344
  2571. The scene with McCoy's father sells this movie for me. The movie is practically a meme, but that scene was great.
    344
  2572. I read some of the reviews on rotten tomatoes for myself. They are all over the place, 83% is not rotten but most of them aren't even that positive about it. Basically the majority comes down to "despite the in your face feminism, emotionless protagonist and shaky pacing its a fun movie because Marvel".
    343
  2573. South Park level of brilliance is only possible because a couple of jokers disrupted the industry when they were in college. Since then, they've had "F you" money and could be true to themselves. Matt and Trey aren't perfect, just like every human, but they're thoughtful and hilarious. The reason South Park has always been such incredible art, however, is because it MAKES YOU THINK. They don't just beat you over the head with their opinion, they show how both sides have flaws. They invite us to face serious challenges with an open heart and a smile, even when it's not easy to do so. Best. Show. Ever.
    343
  2574. So glad the gangs all back, one of the few things Netflix got right
    342
  2575. "There's an elegance to be found in simplicity. And the worst thing that you can do as a storyteller is to over-complicate something that doesn't require it." Tenet has left the chat
    342
  2576. Waking up to drinker video, means good day.
    342
  2577. I ugly cry once every year. It's when I watch this movie around Christmas time.
    341
  2578. The biggest shame of this movie is not pairing Indy with an older Shortround; an established adopted son character, played by a very talented actor. It only shows that this movie, like a lot of modern movies, have no respect for the established story/ lore/ characters. And would rather ignore it and insert their own characters and ideas. I weep over the emotional feels we could have gotten between an older short round and an aging Indy, after seeing Ke Huy Quan’s emotional acting in Everything Everywhere all at once. It’d be true nostalgia, not nostalgia bait. It’d be short round being us, as we’ve all aged with Indy, reminiscing and thanking him for our adventures together.
    341
  2579. The fact that the Boys went from a 90% to a 51% is a clear reminder how much of the audience they lost by destroying the writing for unapologetic politics. Sure the show never shyed away from digging at political views, but now its a point where its so obvious that it flat out hurts to watch. Thanks a lot Kripke, I'll gladly skip this show's final season and watch something else just like you said!
    340
  2580. I was telling my wife how awful it was and she said I was just buying into all the criticism without having watched it. So I basically forced me and her to watch the WHOLE EFFING SHOW (when she fell asleep I'd pause it or wake her up to keep watching). So at least one viewing of that was done knowing full well it was awful and in spite of that. Her conclusion, the reports dissing it weren't nearly hateful enough.
    340
  2581. Brie in a lightsaber fight. "Is this like a personal attack or something?"
    340
  2582. I think the ironic reason for Sabine not telling Ezra how exactly she got there is because even Filoni recognized himself that it would make Sabine out to look like a blatant fool and a war criminal who not only completely undid Ezra's sacrifice, but also betrayed Ahsoka and her "last" act of stopping the bad guys from getting to Thrawn; letting her presumed death be in vain, committed treason against the New Republic, and single handedly started another galaxy wide war, and Ezra would've had every reason to be angry and disgusted at her. So Filoni just swept it under the rug like it was no big deal.
    340
  2583. It is a travesty to consider what a live action Snow White could have looked like in the hands of people who actually loved the story. Heck, Cinderella (2015) was beautifully done, so it is heartbreaking to see so many beloved stories get flushed down the drain.
    340
  2584. I distinctly remember seeing Predator when it came out that weekend in '87. Went with a bunch of gaming friends (yeah, think of the gang from Stranger Things and that was us). We're watching this flick when BAM! it goes from straight up action film to sci-fi horror! We were all "holy shit! this thing is unstoppable! nobody is going live!" Yeah, you don't even think Dutch is gonna make it out alive. It's because in the first act, you do get the sense that these guys are elite spec ops. Best of the best. They've been in the shit and lived...but then this thing shows up and turns their whole world upside down. They panic! It's beyond their comprehension, at least at first. Then Dutch sees the blood trail... "If it bleeds, we can kill it." Truly the best of 80s action films.
    339
  2585. "Fanfourstick"😂😂
    339
  2586. "You don't need hundreds of millions of dollars to make a successful superhero film" is a message both Warner and Disney really could have used a couple of years ago. A bit sorry the movie never got released for that reason alone, now. Not that success was a given, of course, but... damn.
    339
  2587. Great to see Carrie Ann Moss get a solid role this time 6 minutes later Nevermind 🤦🏼‍♂️
    338
  2588. One of the best movies EVER made. And it's still 100% relevant to this day. Nothing has changed since this movie came out.
    338
  2589. I always maintained, that the first reboot of Tomb Raider; Anniversary, Legend and Underworld were as good as Tomb Raider was ever going to be, and modern gaming trends would just ruin the whole thing; as they did. If Square Enix would just remake TR2 and 4 in the same way as Anniversary I will die happy. But it won't. Because shitty action set pieces are more important. And for fuck sake give her the dual guns back. It's like having Mario without the moustache.
    338
  2590. Like watching Amy Schumer's stand up comment got me, flmao!
    338
  2591. Disney has done the impossible. It's taken the biggest franchise on Earth and made it irrelevant. So stunning and brave! Elon needs to buy and fix Star Wars.
    338
  2592. After a lifetime of getting in and out of buildings, they ultimately get killed by one. Shakespeare would be jealous of a plot like that
    338
  2593. The tech Darth Teeth used to short out the lightsabers has been seen in Star Wars before however I still find it comical how he is headbutting the lightsabers, like what if his helmet broke earlier, he’d be dead
    337
  2594. On today's installment of "Andor did it better", Miro was a way better execution of stoic female character. I think part of what made her work better was because she wasn't emotionless all the time, so scenes where she would have to steel herself (like torturing Bix) made her feel that much more intimidating and serious.
    337
  2595. There’s a saying in the military: the first casualty is your own lieutenant. And he’s usually shot in the back. What’s really ironic about the conflict between Holdo and Poe is Poe’s reaction to the plan once someone finally tells it to him. He accepts it immediately and enthusiastically. This more than any other scene displays the jarring disconnect between what we’re being told and what we were just shown. We are being told “See! Holdo was right and Poe should’ve just obeyed.” But what we saw was a competent, dedicated veteran commander needlessly berated and kept in the dark when a simple explanation would have made Poe her staunchest ally and an effective and energetic executive officer. Good leaders don’t just make good decisions. Good leaders must be able to inspire those around them to implement those decisions. By any metric, Holdo is an abject failure as a commanding officer
    337
  2596. Everything that Star Trek should be.
    337
  2597. My suspension of disbelief was stretched beyond its factory setting when Ellie's mum pushed out her baby in about four seconds. My daughter was incredibly quick with her first child but Ellie's mum was Usain Bolt in comparison. And don't get me started on the viability of gasoline after twenty-odd years...
    337
  2598. The titanic band played music because they were trapped and had no way out but the rebel moon band kept playing in the face of a firefight they could have run from. Truly inspiring dedication to their craft.
    336
  2599. For me the best scene is the guy being arrested for protesting on the street with the "Not economically viable" sign and when the cop car gets to Foster, the guy says "Don't forget me" and he just nods to him. For some reason it stuck with me.
    336
  2600. Harkonnens are brilliant but arrogant in the book, consistently overestimating their abilities and underestimating the people around them, their biggest mistake is not knowing how many fremen actually exist and massively underestimating them, and their power over the worms.
    336
  2601. Aliens in 1984 set up so many possibilities and the future of the franchise should have been amazing. Here were 40 years later, and nothing has come remotely close. Hollywood just fails. Time after time after time.
    336
  2602. I love how Anakin was like "Hey Ahsoka, can you make sure my son doesn't try to murder my grandson over a fucking nightmare causing the second massacre of The Jedi?" Oh wait he just said a bunch of nonsensical bullshit while showing that the choreography in the show outside of Baylan is terrible. Fair. Rest in peace Ray Stevenson, you're one of the most underrared actors of all time and were often the absolute best part of something silly or bad, most recently being the first compelling Star Wars character in almost a decade. Sadly fitting that you're more celebrated now than ever so shortly after you passed.
    336
  2603. The writer’s in the pre-production stage: “They think we have what it takes.” “Shh!!! As soon as they find out we don’t, we’re dead!”
    336
  2604. This man is the very definition of: "In vino veritas". Never change, Drinker.
    335
  2605. When Riley bursts into flames in front of Erin and she was screaming and crying, I felt chills go through my body. This show was one of the good things that came out of 2021.
    335
  2606. "Huxley, look, this isn't the Wild West! The Wild West wasn't even the Wild West! Hurting people's not a good thing! Sometimes it is, but not when it's a bunch of people looking for something to eat!"
    335
  2607. 5th element has a killer diegetic moment w the blue diva towards the end
    334
  2608. i watched the movie just to see if it was actually that bad. not sure if it was though cause i slept through 70% of the movie.
    334
  2609. The mission. The nightmares. They're finally over...
    333
  2610. This “Captain America” doesn’t even have super soldier serum and he still manages to fight the not so Incredible red Hulk
    333
  2611. I like how they got an actress who could do a live action Tomb Raider to voice this.
    332
  2612. I really appreciate the Drinker's breakdowns, and the way he criticizes movies, even when he's criticizing a movie I happen to like (I liked the Creed movies, despite their problems). Gives me hope that at least a few people out there are still able to approach things with thoughtfulness and reason.
    332
  2613. Nice to see a big person talk about this show. I went through a zombie phase awhile ago and saw this show and watched it out of curiosity and was completely blown away. It’s way better than anything Hollywood has put out zombie related in years.
    332
  2614. He does have a habit of making some of the best, even if they are long, films we talk about for decades after. Let's hope he has one more in him to finish on a high. Because when he's gone we may not get films like his ever again.
    331
  2615. "Just imagine ... six months stuck in the middle of the Australian jungle with a bunch of people who hate each other, and are actively working to prevent the project from getting finished." Haaaaave you seen the Australian army?
    331
  2616. I was turned off becuase of the 3D animations, but man, never been so happy to be wrong. This animations art-style is gorgeous. Glad the Drinker covered this. Easily one of the brightest silver-linings that came out this year.
    331
  2617. You just know that the writers can't wait to reveal that Arya single-handedly kills the Mountain in the finale.
    330
  2618. Her being in charge for 12 to 13 years has felt like 50.
    330
  2619. I'd pay money for Disney to just stop at this point.
    330
  2620. I just want to know how the past 10 years of strong powerful women characters in the MCU feel about suggestion that they’ve been lacking prior to this film?
    330
  2621. Indian Jones is like Terminator. Originally conceived as an awesome low budget but high action film that used special effects judiciously. Then after massive success, including sequels, was pushed forward past it's reasonable story's conclusion with massive Special Effects being used in place of good story.
    329
  2622. Anya and Ralph killed this movie. It's sad most categorized this movie as just another eat the rich movie which came last year like glass minion and triangle of sadness but this was clearly a well intended movie about critiquing the "high art" and "elitism" culture that exists in almost every form of life. Loved the end. ❤❤
    329
  2623. critical drinker : " great news " Me : What's pissing him off now? Love you brother, your work is of a dying breed
    329
  2624. Remember when William Shatner said that current Star Trek isn't what Roddenberry imagined?
    328
  2625. I work with a group of guys from South Korea. They're always giving me reccomendations of movies/shows from their country, and they never dissapoint.
    328
  2626. About time! I hope this sends a signal to all the creatives in Hollywood. That entire town runs on fear, I've seen it myself. Worked there for two years. Couldn't be happening to a more deserving company. I'm a screenwriter too, and Disney's internal DEI stuff is the death of creativity (I break this down from a screenwriting perspective).
    328
  2627. Still a masterpiece compared to Jar Jar Trek.
    327
  2628. Cannot. Agree. More. This review is spot on... and this show is a masterclass in showing us, well, everything that Drinker said in his 'digression'.
    327
  2629. As a fan of the Alien franchise, my hopes died when Fox cancelled the Alien movie that was going to be directed by Neill Blomkamp. A direct sequel to Alien 2 that was going to remove the third movie and resurection from the canon, and it was going to bring back Ripley and Hicks. Unfortunately, Fox chose the covenant BS over Blomkamp's project. I believe people are excited about Alien Romolus because is at least decent for the franchise.
    327
  2630. Its almost as if people can appreciate a historicly accurate story, without the need to add inacurate poc to please an overloud minority.

  2631. I was incredibly confused when I watched the first episode, and I was super disappointed when Rorschach was reduced to a white power symbol. The whole episode had me saying "wait wtf" and just shaking my head in disappointment at the cringy dialogue and dumb agendas that were just being shoved down my throat. will not be watching episode 2. Edit: I didn't look into the show at all when I heard about it, so I had no idea who was directing or what it was going to be about.
    326
  2632. Credit where credit is due. The aggressiveness of Smilo’s fighting style was good.
    326
  2633. mate, you are a clever writer. I find myself genuinely laughing at your commentary. this is gold; so happy to have found your videos - many thanks from a new fan.
    326
  2634. i remember when falcon and the winter soldier was over, it was announced the same writer and director would be making the fourth movie and i immediately cringed and knew we were in for it and it wouldnt be good. sometimes i hate being right about Marvel
    325
  2635. Canceled my ticket to this and instead watched The Wild Robot lol
    325
  2636. We need to get Jeremy from Geeks And Gamers to do a reaction video for this!
    325
  2637. Snow White was once considered such a sacred movie by the Walt Disney Company that it was the last movie to receive a home video release. The attitudes of the executives (Roy Disney and his allies) who resisted it was that Snow White was so iconic as a landmark moment in the history of not just animated cinema but ALL cinema that the very act of plugging it into a VCR as just another mindless product to be consumed was antithesis to everything Walt created it to be - a legitimization of the art form of animation. They believed Snow White had to be properly enjoyed as an artistic masterpiece, in a theater, with the right frame of mind. Of course this view wasn't going to hold out forever against the money left on the table or the inevitable antiquated feel of the movie compared to masterpieces of the Disney Renaissance which perfected the techniques Snow White first attempted. But hearing the things people involved in a Snow White remake are saying about the movie that literally made the Walt Disney Company what it is... I just don't know what they expect to happen next.
    323
  2638. Nothing Marvel comes out with this year is going to tank harder than Snow White.
    323
  2639. Nothing says “out of touch” like pissing off the very people who decide whether your film succeeds or not.
    322
  2640. It's lucky that Tom Cruise is still jacked, because he carried the most of the weight of movie entertainment on his shoulders in 2022.
    322
  2641. You perfectly summarized every single gripe I've had with Black Panther in one video. Thank you.
    322
  2642. I am always amazed at how much is being communicated when the Drinker utters, “go away now.” Same words every time but a massive spectrum of different meanings.
    322
  2643. Critical Drinker: "Do you seriously believe your own hype that much?" Daisy Ridley: "I AM THE HYPE!!!"
    322
  2644. It really peaked with Morbius. After he morbed all over the bad guys it set the bar as the superhero movie of all time
    321
  2645. It's sadly ten years overdue.
    321
  2646. As a fun side note, my wife is a dramatic liberal, but also a deeply closeted conservative. I've started using the phrase "THE MESSAGE" in casual conversation, in much the same way that you do. And lo and behold, she has started using it unironically herself. Marriage really is better when trolling is there.
    321
  2647. "Cinematic anti-genius" 😂
    321
  2648. I miss characters like Simmons, in this movie. We know he is the antagonist, we know he's the 'villain' and yet we never truly see him 'lose' or berated and humiliated. He is given a perspective that makes some of us question if he even was a 'villain' or not.
    321
  2649. Says a lot that most would rather watch this Christmas masterpiece than almost 85% of the Garbage givin us in our day!
    320
  2650. "It's Christmas time theo,it is a time for miracles " "You asked for miracles theo, I give you the F B I " -Hans Gruber Alan Rickman as Hans made this movie imo.
    320
  2651. A win for the customers who pay? What a world we're living in if the commercial relation works as intended??!! I'm triggered now 😡😡😠
    320
  2652. I genuinely believe that reviews of this show have been viewed more than the actual show itself.
    320
  2653. You should've included Geena Davis in 96's "The Long Kiss Goodnight". Totally badass and such an underrated action flick.
    319
  2654. The "I never really cared for science fiction" line isn't a cheap laugh. It's the combined middle fingers of the show's writers and producers, directed at all viewers of a science fiction series foolishly looking for more than contrived, manipulative, unsubtle, overly politicized character drama with some magical bullshit flying around in the background.
    319
  2655. Imagine that the part of the projector that MJ grabs, to be like the piece of graphite that the fireman grabs in Chernobyl... A man can dream.
    319
  2656. One thing feminists fail to understand about their Mary Sue power fantasies is that ultimately, it's like beating a video game on the easiest difficulty. You may finish it feeling all-powerful, but victory is never satisfying.
    319
  2657. Man Cavil's moustache still takes the fucking cake for me. Imagine spending $40 million dollars and hiring an army of Indian CGI programmers rather than two grown adults talking to each other and letting him shave off a moustache that could be regrown in like 2 weeks.
    319
  2658. It’s so insane how much the left is obsessed with the orange man. The “orange mad bad” joke is so played out. They’ve been doing it for almost 10 years. It’s not even a political issue at this point. It’s a creativity issue. I’m so tired of hearing about Trump.
    318
  2659. It's absolutely crazy that the same man who made The Duelists made this Napoleon movie. The Duelists had such an eye for accuracy, and Napoleon, well......not so much.
    318
  2660. The actress's criticism was way off. The lineup image in the show has Faye at 5' 6". She has C cups, and a violin figure. This is far from impossible to find in Hollywood. The real difference is how they had her act and appear. You can find far more impractical outfits on female pro wrestlers who do much more physically demanding work, so that is no excuse. Faye is a multifaceted character, who uses her femininity as a deadly weapon. The show just had her as a conservatively dressed shallow spaz with near zero sex appeal.
    317
  2661. Those 6min saved me from wasting 90min of my life. Thanks
    317
  2662. I'm sorry but the absolute frustration in your voice made me laugh through my tears at how shit this show has become. I just love your voice. It represents the entire fandom at this point.
    316
  2663. When I watched Godzilla and Kong, I went in with an open mind; and overall, I enjoyed it. The plot made just enough sense to get me invested from start to finish, didn't display the message, and was just entertaining to watch. It's a reminder that good action movies still exist. Great video drinker. 🎉
    316
  2664. It’s Hollywood baby 😂
    315
  2665. ''Movies like this is why i drink'' That line killed me.
    315
  2666. I literally JUST voted for this video to happen. Edit: then I was immediately notified and watched it.
    315
  2667. Dude, in this movie I cared about the characters and the whole thing is so engaging and entertaining! With choreographies, melodrama and all. Hollywood should feel ashamed that very few of its movies can achieve that these days.
    315
  2668. "Progressive politics is the Joseph Stalin of our time." <=--- gold
    315
  2669. I love how not one thing in the episode has anything to do with Watchmen. Shouldn't this sort of stuff be, I don't know, illegal?
    312
  2670. "To my big brother, George: the richest man in town." This line gets me EVERY time, no matter how many times. Going through the journey of George Bailey, to have such symbolism expressed at the final moments of the film is absolute genius!
    312
  2671. Mae pretending to be Osha may have worked if we hadn’t already seen SOL READ MAE’S MIND LIKE A BOOK! Best episode of the season. Solid 2/10.
    312
  2672. There’s no way in hell a mob of Orcs would be able to take down Sauron like that when he is leagues above everyone else in that room in terms of power, not only that but he would have seen that betrayal coming from miles away.
    312
  2673. I must say, Drinker, you are adept at providing this analysis without going into politics yourself. Well done, I commend you.
    311
  2674. Gotta love Cameron. His contributions to films even in the slightest bit always have huge profound impacts. The guy is amazing.
    311
  2675. Nice work Drinker and RO production team. Looks great, clearly a lot of care and thought went into this. Disney and WB are you paying attention?
    311
  2676. 6,000 comments. Damn! This one will go unread. My two cents: It's my fault that my interpretation of the title meant that we would be looking back at Boba Fett's life, from when his father died to the time of the Sarlac. Fett could have been portrayed as that edgy character I think we all were hoping for. With clever writing it could have been unclear if Fett's story ends at the Sarlac. This ambiguity could have continued into a second season. I don't know why Disney felt the need to create this warm and fuzzy Fett. He should have been a jaded, cold, edgy character but also with redeeming qualities when presented with certain moral challenges. Bounty hunters are not intrinsically bad or evil but it takes a certain type to do the job. That could have been explored in this show. So many missed opportunities. Disney in a nutshell these days.
    310
  2677. Thank you for your assessment of the actor's performances, or lack of. I've noticed this in TV and movies for the 15 -20 years. Nobody acts anymore. They walk in front of the camera, say their lines and then go to their trailers until they're called to shoot another scene. A total lack of drama or personality. No interest for the audience.
    310
  2678. I feel bad for Daisy Ridley because I don't think she knew what a mess of utter incompetence she was walking into when she joined the franchise. They probably told her she'd be the next Natalie Portman and locked her in for two or three movies when she signed, so now she's stuck spinning her wheels in a series of career killing flops.
    310
  2679. 90% of me was convinced Star Wars would die with this movie, like really die, and 10% thought this could be the one that saves the trilogy... they could not have put together a trailer that more confirmed it’s over
    310
  2680. Me: Can't be worse than Last Jedi. Just can't. Disney: Hold my blue tit milk.
    310
  2681. I heard that the Boycott will be quite operational when Episode 9 arrives.
    309
  2682. To think technology has come so far yet creativity and quality have overall dropped. So sad. Well time for a strong drinker macallan come here baby.
    308
  2683. Finn is whatever the writers need him to be at that particular moment. Which unfortunately is screaming Rey or as a joke acting a clown. Imagine if Finn was actually a competent soldier, using strategy and skills and military knowledge to the resistances advantage ... Except we get a janitor! Sorry Drinker unless you can change that he was a janitor his 'character' is forever damned.
    308
  2684. I recently did a presentation on Klaus Kinski for my German class at college. The entire class was full of people who thought that Tom Cruise and John Trevolta were the craziest actors of all time. The looks on their faces were hilarious.
    308
  2685. Critical Drinker reviewing The Mandalorian? This is the way.
    308
  2686. I remember when celebrities kept their own political views between themselves and the ballot box, to appeal to the most people
    307
  2687. "Quick Brie think of a game, any game a game that is popular right now!" "I mostly play Nintendo" "Nailed it!!!" I laughed very hard at this 😂😂😂Well done Drinker 👍👏
    307
  2688. Also hilarious how Zach clearly wanted a quartet, but they could only find 3 people who knew how to play a stringed instrument . Second guy from the right is just holding his bow ham fistedly and sawing back and forth across the strings 😂😂😂
    306
  2689. They’re not gonna “ course correct “ unless they release a couple of movies that flop harder than The Marvels
    305
  2690. It seems that the main problem of directors like Scorsese, Tarantino, Nolan: they don’t have a partner that can reign their ego in & tell them to cut their movies down It would help out a bunch
    305
  2691. Yeeah her saying she will protect me doesn't quite have the same weight behind it as if Arnold said it. That's like using a Chihuahua as a guard dog.
    305
  2692. Come to Colorado, we have 53 mountains over 4270 meters.
    304
  2693. Man after 20 yrs Wesley Snipes still got it! That swagger he carries with blade just doesn't go away, I would like to see one more movie from him as Blade.
    303
  2694. I'd like to add that the protagonist we all were supposed to cheer for wasn't very likeable.
    303
  2695. sorry the pricks at Disney blocked your new last Jedi upload 😡
    303
  2696. I’ve never once heard or met any member of this “modern audience”. In fact, I think most people are on board to be against most of this trash that gets released. The few and very loud supporters don’t even buy or view these products. We’re living in a strange backwards world and these companies would rather burn everything to the ground than to admit that they’re wrong.
    302
  2697. If this had come out 10 years ago, it probably would’ve been very successful
    302
  2698. That must have really been been a shocker for hollywood – turns out that what people wanted all along was a good, fun story, likeable characters and cool villains
    302
  2699. To roughly quote another commenter in another GoT review of Season 8 Imagine if Denethor was the final conflict in LOTR, after they got done with Sauron... This is Season 8.
    302
  2700. It bothers me they use the Ecto-1, which was on its last leg and got replaced by the Ecto-1A in Ghostbusters II. I also think it would be nice if they acknowledged Rick Moranis in any way, like Janine possibly having the last name Tully.
    301
  2701. I think the main problem with doing a sequel is the original story wrapped itself up and didn't really open itself up to a sequel. From what I can tell from the trailers, the humans are just gonna come back for revenge and we'll basically get the same story again, except this time Jake Sullys kid is gonna use her Pandora superpowers to unite everyone. I'll put money on it. Quick edit: when you said "two billion dollars" my computer crashed lmfao. Can't handle the drinker sass apparently.
    301
  2702. Thanks Drinker for all the funny, interesting, informative videos and live streams this year. All the best 😎.
    301
  2703. That lightsabre is the last good thing Star Wars has to give us
    301
  2704. Kathleen Kennedy isnt even trying to hide it anymore. She's made it clear that George Lucas's vision for star wars is gone and that we should 'move on'. Sad to see a beloved series me and several others grew up with be destroyed over someone with a personal agenda
    300
  2705. Brilliantly sarcastic video is brilliantly sarcastic. Great use of clips btw. Suddenly feeling the urge to watch Aliens (that one about the helpless female).
    300
  2706. THANK YOU!! Finally someone who agrees with me on this. Creed destroyed everything I loved about the original Rocky franchise. Killed Paulie, made Apollo a scumbag, gave Rocky cancer...as far as I'm concerned, this movie doesn't exist. The original Rocky was perfect and didn't need to be remade for Coogler's self-indulgence
    300
  2707. - "Why is the alien here?" To replicate Kurt Russells beard, obviously. I mean, its so powerful, Wilford Brimley didnt have a mustache yet.
    299
  2708. There is some fantastic dry humour from Dredd: Judge Dredd: Was wondering when you realized you'd forgot your helmet... Cassandra Anderson: ...It interferes with my psychic abilities... Judge Dredd: I think a bullet would interfere with them more.
    299
  2709. "For once, I don't feel the need to drown my sorrows with a bottle of toilet duck" Fuckin LOL
    299
  2710. Personally, I think the MCU is suffering from the same thing the source material does: years of continuity that makes it tiresome for newcomers to catch up and enjoy. Two or three movies per year was perfectly doable for the general public. Now it's multiple movies and Disney Plus series just to know what the hell is going on.
    298
  2711. Being a Resident Evil fan is like being in an abusive relationship, you remember the good old days but now you might get a delightful surprise or might get a punch to the gut, it's a roll of the dice really.
    298
  2712. Reggie's scene was the highlight of the movie for me.
    297
  2713. I'm convinced that anything with Anya in it is worth watching. She's been turning in stellar performances in nearly every genre from Split, Glass, Last Night in Soho, The Queen's Gambit, The Witch, The Northman, The Menu, and now she just recently did excellent voicework in the Super Mario Bros. Movie. The girl is just talent and I see a couple or so Oscars in the near future for her!
    297
  2714. "Then he evaporates and dies." I honestly laughed at that, it's so retardedly braindead that I laughed out of sheer absurdity.
    295
  2715. “James Bond has become irrelevant in his own movie.” That about sums it all up, I think.
    295
  2716. Never would have considered this but solely based on a 'drinker recommends' I'm gonna check it out. Hats off to you sir, The Critical Drinker is a rare example of when keeping it real goes right
    295
  2717. Jaws is one of those extremely rare movies.....it’s damn near perfect. Its so freaking good we can forgive the mechanical shark. Not one of the films featuring photoreal cgi sharks, come close to licking the boots of this classic. What makes it extra special is that we actually care about the characters and what happens to them. If they did a remake of Jaws today, I guarantee I’d be rooting for the shark!
    294
  2718. The sheer amount of effort put into every single action scene blows most recent movies out of the water. They made even the most ridiculous stunts look the most realistic they could possibly be. We need sequels fast
    294
  2719. After season 7. I feared the worst but hopes for the best. after episode 3. I gave up and stopped caring. after Jon didn't even pet his dog. I now have active disdain for the show.
    294
  2720. Prince: rides a horse on the road before hearing Snow White singing and wants to politely meet her Rachel Zegler: "He's a stalker." Evil Queen: stalks Snow White to give her the evil apple to eat Rachel Zegler: "Yas queen!"
    293
  2721. Remember when a generation of teens and single moms got depression because they weren't Avatars Living On Pandora?
    293
  2722. 12:26 Exactly. "The Undiscovered Country" and "Wrath of Kahn" were relatable & plausible stories that dealt with not being able to change one's mindset (in the former) and in the latter, not dealing with a past (an old enemy / his son) that has a way of catching up to you. I'm all for fresh viewpoints but why cast writers and directors who not only do not understand the underpinnings of the concepts but are openly and arrogantly out to prove it was all crap and they know better? Next up: The "Breaking Bad" reboot brought to you by Seth Rogen and Will Ferrell.
    293
  2723. when the drinker talks you listen.
    292
  2724. This series is a missed opportunity. Sauron was supposed to be a pseudo Promethean figure generating religious engineering in Harad and Rhûn with the metallurgical revolution he made in the east and south. He could be like Mephistopheles from Goethe's Faust or Azazel from the book of Enoch. Galadriel was supposed to be a sage and a political opponent of Annatar's reformist ideas. She could be like a philosopher-queen. She used arguments and debates to fight Sauron in Eregion. She was such a fierce enemy that Annatar instigate Celebrimbor and the Jewelers to stage a coup d'etat on Galadriel and Celeborn. Númenor is a moral and theological story about life vs death vs immortality vs human nature. Harad and Rhûn were inspired by Ancient Aethiopia and Asia.
    292
  2725. Drinker: Shows Andy Dufresne and Red "And really good films don't make any." I felt that in my soul! It's a tragedy that Shawshank Redemption never got the money and recognition it actually deserved when it was released.
    292
  2726. Event Horizon...now that's a film.
    291
  2727. What is that Private Pyle? A jelly donut ?
    291
  2728. It started ok but lost me the more it went on, but I have to say, in ALL my years of watching films, I have never had so many "Why is that like that? Why on earth did they do that? Oh, come on that would never happen, that makes zero sense"
    291
  2729. My Grandfather was a Marine during Nam. They tried to go see this, and he couldn’t get through the boot camp segment, it was very close to what he had experienced and bothered him. And, honestly, the parts in Full Metal Jacket that take place in Vietnam pale in comparison to how visceral the Drill Instructor was and how haunting a performance was delivered by Vincent D’Onofrio. Stanley Kubrick also did Spartacus, it doesn’t get as much recognition as it should.
    291
  2730. It’s actually borderline criminal how Disney executives are more concerned with their “Social Credit Score” than they are the wellbeing of their employees and shareholders.
    290
  2731. More and more game developers nowadays want to create "grounded" stories featuring "everyman" characters who trudge their way through misery and pathos, only to reach some less-than-ideal ending. The appeal of classic Lara was that she was a larger-than-life heroine who took us on grand adventures and did it with supreme confidence. At least the Legend trilogy, The Guardian of Light and The Temple of Osiris kept that aspect of Lara intact. Perhaps game devs will come back around to that once this stale interpretation of Lara reaches its climax.
    290
  2732. I think Scottish people should be invested by humanity with the task of being its voice of consciousness. If our species were to end, a Scotsman or lady should be left to explain in-full (a recording, perhaps, inside a time capsule of some sort) for a future intelligent life form on who we were and how shit hit the fan. The history of all of us, narrated by a sound, down-to-earth person from that small, green place on our planet.
    290
  2733. Any movie that has Bjorn Ironside and Homelander in it is worth the admission price.
    290
  2734. This is the problem with humanizing or sympathizing villains. It makes everything the heroes faced meaningless.
    289
  2735. I'm genuinely shocked that this film was far better than I expected. I thought I was gonna get shit, but ended up getting a chocolate brownie instead. Nothing groundbreaking, but an enjoyable treat that was surprisingly fun to get into.
    289
  2736. I know we're all supposed to love Snow White and hate the Evil Queen... but this trailer depicts a smug, self-important, entitled Snow White that treats the people who saved her as being lesser creatures, and what appears to be a reasonable Evil Queen that doesn't appear to actually do anything evil. That's Hollywood, Baby! :face-fuchsia-poop-shape:
    289
  2737. My favorite part was where critical drinker said to she hulk “it’s schooling time” and schooled all over the awful writing and saved us all
    288
  2738. This movie follows the main rules of filmic trascendence: - Being actually smart and controversial without going down the pretentious road. - A director that actually knows what he's doing, what he wants to do, and what message to convey. - Characters that are memorable and resonate with us no matter when, why or how.
    288
  2739. There are fan recuts that makes this a 3h movie. "There And Back Again, A Hobbit's Tale Recut by David Killstein" It's called. It follows the books more closely and removes all filler. Movie gets pretty good then, there is good shit here just the greed stretching it out to 3 movies, and the message of the movie is greed is bad xD.
    288
  2740. Congrats Drinker! That was great for such a relatively small budget. I would definitely watch a Rogue Elements TV show.
    288
  2741. The Dark Phoenix Director and Writer doing this?!?! They can’t even get worse from here….
    288
  2742. Deadpool should have dug into the mcu so much more in this movie.
    287
  2743. "There is no emotion, there is peace." This is where we are.
    287
  2744. This show is such a hidden gem.
    287
  2745. What a garbage show, even boring episodes of voyager and enterprise are more interesting than this BS
    287
  2746. Give this man a bigger budget and let him cook
    286
  2747. Let's not forget that everything after his first fight with Bane was done without his robo-knee.
    286
  2748. I think it's a HUGE red flag how many characters are in this movie, sure the fans will know who they are, but it would be difficult to introduce so many heroes and villains in the first film, especially when a lot of them aren't famous ones Superman, Krypto, Mister Terrific, Hawkgirl, Guy Gardner, Metamorpho, Kelex, Lex Luthor, Ultraman And that's just superhero/villains that people care about, there's even more Muggles nobody gives a shit about, like Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen, Perry White, Steven Lombard, Cat Grant
    286
  2749. "Godzilla: Minus One" is the quintessential example of how you balance an engaging human story with riveting monster action sequences. I have seen my fair share of Godzilla and King Kong films in my time and the human stories are always so insipid that I didn't care of if the people survived. "Godzilla: Minus One" had me care for the human characters. Hollywood should take note of this film, not only for how it is able to adeptly juggle bombastic spectacle while also displaying a great understanding of humanity, but how it did so with a modest budget!
    286
  2750. That little girl testing the proton pack had the hair on the back of my neck standing straight up. Thats all i wanted to do when i was 8 yrs old. Just so incredibly unfair. When was the last time a movie made you feel that way? I thought the movie was a dream come true from everyone from the 80’s. Thank you for this.
    285
  2751. Truly one of the shows of all time!!!🤩🥹🌟🎉
    285
  2752. Fandom split down the middle? I want a recount LOL
    285
  2753. Epic. This is easily the BEST review I have seen or heard. Stay drunk, ya bastard! Cheers!
    284
  2754. The Kid, finally understanding how badly out of his depth he is: "I guess I'd rather be blind and ragged than dead." Will: "I ain't gonna shoot you, Kid. You're the only friend I've got." Unforgiven is one of my all-time favorite films; it's the movie that convinced me to give Westerns a chance after dismissing the entire genre as my father's "boring brown movies" when I was growing up. I don't know if it's a perfect movie - I don't know that the perfect movie exists, or even can exist - but it's incredibly well-written, directed, acted, and edited. It doesn't waste a moment of screen time: every image that appears and every word that's spoken serves the story. I watched it four times in the theater, and for the last almost 30 years it has been one of the first films I re-add to my collection every time I upgrade my home entertainment system. A great movie, even by the standards of an era when great movies were far more common than they are today (seriously, check out the Oscars class of 1993 - it was a good year).
    283
  2755. The added layer of duplicity, manipulation, and savagery in the gameplay of forcing a vote after every single game to increase the tension, the stakes, and to divide players into two groups that are then pitted against each other, almost like classism, was brilliant.
    283
  2756. I’ll never forget the fact that Lui Kang spammed his low kick against Kano
    283
  2757. My only concern is, how the hell do you capture a career like Napoleon's in one movie? Over a period of 25 years, he literally led one of the most interesting lives in history, during one of the most interesting times in history. Countless movies and miniseries have focussed on just a few aspects of his life, and the French Revolution that precipitated his rise to power. More books have been written about him than about anyone else, ever.
    282
  2758. I went out to dinner last night and when I was done I shouted ‘Star Wars’ at the top of my lungs to let the waitress know I’am finished.
    282
  2759. I remember watching Predator for the first time as a kid and being absolutely obsessed with it. It remains in my top 10 movies of all time to this day. Also, Blain is such a badass. "I ain't got time to bleed!" What a champ.
    282
  2760. Sam Neill needs a royalty check everytime you play his audio clip.
    280
  2761. Somebody wrote an SNL skit where a man with crab arms goes on a date and they decided to make a whole movie around that.
    280
  2762. The entire movie felt like it was made so that someone could shout KHAN.
    280
  2763. The way they showed marines being OP at the start just to turn them to easy prey for Predator is genius
    280
  2764. Dog Soldiers is still my favorite werewolf film of all time, the characters are just amazing. It's a shame the director went from this and The Descent to the uninteresting looking Hellboy reboot. As Heavy weapons guy says "Where did we go so wrong?"
    279
  2765. I loved the Open Bar episode when Reaper was asked if he knew the difference between a girl boss & a girl who’s bossy… His response: No they’re all terrible 😅
    279
  2766. I absolutely love the way Drinker describes a film that he (if not enjoyed then at least doesn’t dislike) because you can hear a type of… not “eagerness” but almost like a kind of nostalgia (for back when he got to review all kinds of amazing films) before they truly began THE MESSAGE and everything else with it. Great content bro!!
    279
  2767. I really like Michael Fassbender and he tried his best to save this one...
    279
  2768. When Kirk needed a ship and noone provided him one, he STEALS it with his badass crew. And, btw, we had several strong moments with Uhura back then. That was a show done right.
    279
  2769. Galadriel: "THERE'S A TEMPEST IN ME!" Farts
    278
  2770. Amazon has the money and power to make a God tier show but sadly they put ideologues in charge of making the TV show. 1 billion DOLLARs and they can't make a good show. I know people that do watch it, and they think it's "Ok" a one-billion-dollar show is ok...........My Cousin who likes it said, "Its ok man I don't get why people are complaining" and I told him that they spent 1 billion dollars on one of the biggest fantasy worlds and all they can get from you is "its ok?"
    278
  2771. I completely forgot shadow of the tomb raider even came out and existed. The new games are as bland as white bread.
    277
  2772. Ah, 2003... the time when people use flip nokia phones, windows XP, 16kbps dial up internet, and advanced world wide surveillance system with said internet speed.
    277
  2773. If there was any buzz for this movie it’s officially been terminated!
    277
  2774. Once again, the Drinker does not disappoint!
    276
  2775. Don't forget the amount Sean Bean calls people Bastards.
    276
  2776. 0:10 that joke took me a second 💀 😂
    276
  2777. Lets call this movie what it is. A way to say good bye to old friends and a chance to meet new ones and go on new adventures. If they can build momentum for a sequel then this is where it starts.
    276
  2778. Best Mini Show ever made hands down. This show does something real Radiation can't do. You can feel it, smell it and see it. A masterpiece That moment when we and the two engineers are looking straight into the burning open core.... Its like you're looking straight in the face of death
    276
  2779. I cannot fathom how happy I am that you of all youtubers are talking about how amazing this show is. It deserves all the praise it's getting and more
    275
  2780. Thanks for covering this movie! As a Finn it´s unrealism of the protagonist refusing to die is kind of a satirical take on the Finnish word "Sisu" which translates to "perseverance in the face of any adversity". So he has so much Sisu in him that he cannot die, his determination alone keeps him alive! Edit: I see you covered this word in your video so I will go a little deeper why I think it´s a satirical take on it. There is this saying (more prevalent now with the boomer generation born after the war.) in Finland which goes:"Sisulla siitä selviää!" Which means:"Just have some determination and do it!". So by saying it you are just minimizing whatever the issue is and not really giving any valid answers to the problem. Of course it´s good to have perseverance in life but some ignorant people use the word "Sisu" to just staying ignorant and not really thinking about what the real issue is. So in this movie I think the main character exemplifies what the boomer generation means with it: Just be a superhuman and you´ll get through anything. I hope my point came across, English is my second language.
    274
  2781. Already finished it, and it was something special to watch. Thanks for reviewing it and recommending it! Good on you for the donation of revenue to those kids directly affected by it.
    274
  2782. At least we didn't get the new Bond movie.
    274
  2783. i really liked the first of the reboot, as it felt like a real backstory to her, seeing how she struggles and learns along the way. then came the 2nd and 3rd and somehow it was just "oh she forgot everything again for some reason" where i didn't feel like any progress was made on the charakter and most of the game just turned into a mediocre shooter.
    273
  2784. You need more subs
    273
  2785. Hit the nail on the head with the line, “I trust the writers“. This lack of trust is what has kept me from getting invested in almost any modern story. I’ve settled for the low bar of “the creators don’t actively disdain their audience” But to actually trust the writers to the extent that you’re willing to invest in a story, that feels amazingly fresh.
    273
  2786. "Purple haired space Karen". Yup, quintessential Critical Drinker.
    273
  2787. I remember long ago when I was a kid there was a episode of Mr. Bean where he ruins a painting and tries to fix it. He tries so hard and completely ends up destroying the piece far more than it was originally if he hadn't done anything. When I was watching this I always was super scared, thinking of all the consequences of destroying a piece of artwork would cause. I was always afraid of this episode, because I felt this sickening of my stomach of the actual destruction of artwork and the fear of the consequence of ruining a one-off piece. In the end, Mr. Bean ends up brining the painting back, and laugh ensues, but I was always bothered by this ending and it never felt right. I still remember this episode to this day despite me watching it once when I was 5 or something. I kind of have the same fear and sickening of my stomach when watching Season 8.
    272
  2788. Filming in the tropics is already asking for disaster. Filming in the tropics with Klaus Kinski is guaranteeing it.
    271
  2789. Honestly Mr. Eggers is slowly becoming one of my new favorite film makers since he isn't afraid to take chances.
    271
  2790. Wasn't the replacement for John Connor in Terminator: Fark Dat also called Dani?
    271
  2791. Imagine having a renowned franchise - and treating it with reverence and its audience with respect. For the western entertainment industry, I guess that really is a foreign concept.
    270
  2792. Oh you didn't! A clip of him telling Q he'd rather die than be a bland tool.
    270
  2793. My parody of this new Snow White has 122k likes with 99% likes and 1% dislikes. Clearly the internet agrees that the movie will be trash. Let’s hope Disney learns something and starts making better movies.
    269
  2794. "There's only one blade. There's only ever gonna be one blade"⚔
    269
  2795. Fun fact: This is probably the only really interesting movie that takes place in Delaware.
    268
  2796. Acolyte: gets cancelled with the sequel hook of Darth Plagueis and Yoda appearing rendered useless Everyone: "Oh no, anyway."
    268
  2797. that fucking opening slayed me.....
    268
  2798. 6:04 She directed The new Candyman. Which is FAR Worse than “The Marvels”
    268
  2799. They wanted Tank Girl, many decades after the fact.
    268
  2800. The original 1930's movie still holds up very well. The Netflix remake is very well done and is visually stunning and really shows the horror of WW1 combat.
    268
  2801. Absolutely brilliant as always. What we need is another Easy Rider moment where a group of guys make a movie on a shoestring budget and revolutionise the industry.
    267
  2802. Honestly, I trust the drinker more than every major critic and news outlet. Glad to have him cover this one.
    267
  2803. The idea that disabled people are treated like children is insulting and shows that these people look at them as lesser than and something to be pitied. It's disgusting
    267
  2804. "They will never understand" line from wandavision I think is the most offensive and disturbing ever written. It encapsulates modern day woke idealogies that every time I hear it I get pissed.
    267
  2805. Honestly my favourite part about this masterpiece of a series was when Albert Wesker said: ‘Its Weskin’ time!’ and decided to magically transform from a blonde white dude to black middle aged man with kids. Truly one of the moments of movie-history!
    267
  2806. I can't wait to go see this in theaters. Tom Cruise (like him or not) makes very entertaining films and not woke garbage.
    267
  2807. I didnt know Sweet Baby Inc even existed before all of this. Now that I know, all these flops make sense and now I can make better purchasing decisions. So glad to see normal people rejecting this stuff. Lets bring back quality stories and games.
    267
  2808. The only movie I can watch 100 times and never get tired of it. Who would've thought a movie featuring a broken mechanical shark could be considered one of the top 10 (5 in my book) greatest movies of all time. A true classic!
    266
  2809. >could afford Chris Hemsworth >makes Melissa McCarthy the star
    266
  2810. I left the theater thoroughly pleased with this film
    266
  2811. Drinker: Acolyte is over! Everyone: tapdances HALLELUJAH!
    264
  2812. With the passage of time, predator 2 has become way better
    264
  2813. jordan Peele, the new M. Night Shyamalan
    263
  2814. "...wandering hobo lions...". LOL
    263
  2815. It's middle finger to The Message moves from subtle to overt when it's Emily "When I read the words Strong Female Character I throw the script in the bin" Blunt throwing the punch.
    262
  2816. At this point I’m more excited for the Drinker review, Nerdrotic video and Pitch Meeting than the actual movie.
    262
  2817. Yeah, the previous one was like way too perfect to be followed by a sequel
    261
  2818. "It's almost like this movie is trying to give rey some kind of bipolar depression" Have to love the timing on these ads
    261
  2819. I recall someone saying: "the game reeks of pseudo-intellectualism" and oh boy what a fitting description that was. There are huge fundamental flaws in the game's story which so many positive 'reviewers' tend to completely overlook. Apparently, emotionally traumatizing your audience by brutally killing off a beloved character, who by the way, was one of the only TWO main characters who the players had such a deep emotional bond to, by the hands of a new character who we know nothing about, and then try to build our empathy for this new person is meant to be considered as good writing? The game tries to do so much that ultimately it never managed to garner the same level of empathy for Abby as we did for Joel and Ellie. Let's face it, that's normal human psychology, when we have spent 7 years, bonding with someone, sharing their experiences and pain, the level of empathy we have for this character will always exceed that of a newly introduced character who we know nothing about. Like I said, the game is filled with pseudo-intellectualism, prompting many to believe the game challenges its player in new and interesting ways such as testing our capacity for empathy and understanding of its 'complex and deep' plot and characters. The difference between the first and second game though, is that the second game uses cheap and dirty tricks to ask us these questions and "challenge" our emotions, basically making the player do all the heavy-lifting without itself bothering to present its themes, ideas, questions, moral and emotional dilemmas in an interesting, compelling and thought-provoking manner, providing little to no encouragement to the player to do so. Ultimately, we have a game that is so emotionally unsatisfying, that despite all the 'grand themes' it tries to convey, it ends up sounding contrived, and all the darkness and misery inflicted upon on its character and players just feels needless and purposeless. Admittedly, like Drinker says, the game's story IS quite bold and ambitious at what it tries to achieve, but ultimately that risk doesn't payoff. I quickly come to the conclusion that it would have been better if the story of Joel and Ellie ended with the first game. So yeah, when I ask myself the question: "Was this a story that needed to be told?" No it wasn't, and it has become clear that Joel and Ellie's story should have ended with the first game.
    261
  2820. There was a time when I hated the force awakens more then the last Jedi, just because the way they killed off Han Solo, because at least Luke did something... But after some time I realized that I was wrong, even though Han did nothing, he was at least (Somewhat) the same character, Luke on the other hand Did nothing, and was COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY DIFFERENT!!
    260
  2821. IT’s CLOBBERIN TIME COUSIN.
    260
  2822. You know, in my 40 years of watching movies with Cary Elwes in them, I always thought his death in Twister was the dumbest that ever happened to him. Thank you, Zack, for changing that.
    260
  2823. I was never a DC guy, but I was baffled how they couldn't get the last iterations of Superman and the Justice League right. So easy, but....
    260
  2824. DAMN DUDE this was amazing <3
    259
  2825. Taika Waititi gave me the vibe of that famous quote of George Lucas directing here "faster, more intense". Taika saw the succes of Ragnarok and could only think, more of that, more jokes, more banter more, more, faster, more intense, more funny
    259
  2826. Im glad Drinker is big enough now that he can give us this insight. I really hope you keep making a difference and that the cinema we all love returns to its glory
    259
  2827. Treat Joe Nobody like he's a disposable drone, deprive his every human interaction of any kindness, tell him his looming rage is just a symptom of his own pathetic moral failings, then act shocked and appalled when he draws a gun on a fast food clerk over something that "wasn't even a big deal."
    259
  2828. Perhaps this is the worst way beloved franchises die. Not with a bang and raging into that good night, but forgotten and left to whimper in silence as those who loved it walk away from it's defilement.
    259
  2829. i came for the sarcastic, stayed for the critical. you r great at both... simply put ......Thankyou!
    259
  2830. I was a backer and was pleased with what I saw! Good work Drinker!
    257
  2831. Star Trek, Star Wars, Dr Who, Terminator, Ghostbusters, Charlie's Angles went Woke: Did not meet earning potentials. Birds of Prey: "nah, it'll be fine..."
    256
  2832. Rian Johnson only has a few years left to make a shitty Star Trek movie where William Shatner plays a dour miseryguts parody of James Kirk who says it's time for Starfleet to end.
    256
  2833. Bly feels more like a market tested project that tried to appeal to a wider audience by being a hybrid of genres. It was fun looking for the secret ghosts hidden in every other scene; like some kind of "Where's Waldo" Bly edition... but one single episode of Hill House had more genuine scares in it than an entire season of Bly.
    256
  2834. Love when Sabeen said “it’s skywalkin’ time!” and and force pushed Ezra through the air as she’s a natural force expert. Truly one of the moments of Disney Star Wars
    256
  2835. 4:41 Edge of tomorrow is such a good underrated movie.
    256
  2836. Shows like Squid Game & The Penguin is why I still have faith in TV shows right now. Squid Game 2 could never have exceeded the shock factor & innovation of the 1st season but it is still absolutely amazing. Netflix surprises me sometimes.
    256
  2837. The part where Galadriel yelled, "your soul is mine!" and then sucked Chow Kang's soul out of his body was empowering and inspiring.
    256
  2838. Saw it last night! What a movie! Thank you Tom Cruise for telling a story that the fans actually wanted! Cheers Drinker! 🍻
    255
  2839. Lets not forget that in the comics she's also an authoritarian, who uses extreme force against anyone that has even a slight chance of being a threat.
    255
  2840. I was expecting a story similar to what we're been hearing with MCU films. Script rewrites, reshoots, overblown budget, and set drama. The fact that NONE of those things were actually present makes the cancellation even more startling and makes me kinda wish I could see it. If nothing else, I'll bet Keaton, Fraser, and Simmons gave incredible performances.
    255
  2841. I'm surprised that no one ever seems to notice this but the one character that has a dramatic arc in the original Disney film is Grumpy. Unlike the other dwarves, he's not immediately smitten with Snow White and he isn't big on them sheltering her. Snow White nevertheless wins him over with her kindness and he comes around to her. The dramatic climax of the film is Grumpy bravely leading the dwarves to confront the witch and defend Snow White. The prince doesn't really do anything except revive her with his kiss. You'd think "Girl makes the angry old grouch have a change of heart" would be a message that even contemporary Disney could work with.
    255
  2842. Fun Fact: in South America at the time, it was probably one of the worst times to shoot a movie in. Not only every government was a military dictatorship, every single one of them was trying to start a war with the other to distract the people. By 1979, Perú was almost dragged into a war with Chile and Brazil cause Argentina wanted a quick victory invading Chile to distract its population. It didn’t happened cause Argentina and Peru realised that there was no way they could beat Chile, adding the possibility that Brazil would aid Chile and invade Peru through the Amazon (coincidentally, the same place this movie was filming). The tensions continued until 1982, where Argentina thought that would be better to get Brazil off his back and invade Chile is they took a quick detour and invade the Falklands Islands quickly. That didn’t went well
    255
  2843. “All of us are dead” was absolutely brilliant.
    255
  2844. I had intended to pass on this one but gave it a shot because of your review. I can't remember ever being more surprised by a show. I enjoyed every goofy minute of it and watched it in 2 settings. This show and your review absolutely nailed it!!
    254
  2845. I’m going to miss the amazing reviews and content you brought to this platform, every video was the pinnacle of jokes, editing, and writing. I always related to your takes on modern cinema and I’ll never forget you man🍻 Edit: GOD DAMN ITTTTTTT
    254
  2846. The best part of the movie is when Hera says “It’s Hera Time.” Pretty much it took up the entire runtime. Well I guess Warner Bros. has the rights to LotR still?
    254
  2847. Drinker ... this is by far one of your best reviews. You not only break down what was wrong with the series but also give possibilities of how it could have been a success. You pointed out something that I noticed early on in this mess : Disney MCU seems to hire vacuous actresses, or once they get a hold of prior actresses, they act vacuous.
    253
  2848. With all the flaws of their different universes, Leigh Whannell and James Wan have to be two of the most iconic figures in modern horror, without a doubt ❤
    253
  2849. "it's okay when we do it" perfectly summarizes the writers' and their target audience (i.e. the twitter mob) thought process, if it can even be called that.
    253
  2850. I want to see the future where raptors and dinos gain sapience and integrate into society. "Raptor nanny" would be a hilariously heartfelt family comedy. The titular Raptor Nanny could even have to chase down the recalcitrant daughter of the family who keeps eluding her, the family's "Clever girl."
    253
  2851. I absolutely love the "Not Economically Viable" scene. It really resonates with me more now as an adult. It's completely melancholy, and the way the cops arrest and cart away this guy who merely dares to peacefully protest outside a bank, the symbol of state financial power, is chilling.
    253
  2852. Are we starting to typecast Paul Rudd as the likeable, yet out-of-his-depth father figure to an unexplained science genius daughter who, despite said genius, does something monumentally stupid to cause movie plots? I mean, it's happened twice in two different franchises now, and it's a weirdly specific set of circumstances to happen twice, and pretty close together. Kind of like what Disney's done to Harrison Ford, destroying his marriage and estranging him from wife and son while making him washed up and past it in his two biggest franchises.
    252
  2853. Sabine's wolf-dog in episode 6 conveyed more emotion in two 5-minute scenes than she did in the entire season
    252
  2854. Imagine how frustrating it might be for Mon Mothma’s actress to be given such a great material to play in Andor and then having to deliver those terrible flat lines in Ahsoka.
    252
  2855. It's cute the way Apple Genius Terminator actor guy is trying so hard to be Robert Patrick.
    252
  2856. I absolutely LOVE Resident Evil 5. Everything you say in this video is 100% correct. It is a bad Resident Evil game. It has horrible companion AI, and the CO-OP is way too annoying to get into. It isn't a horror game at all. BUT, if you play it as the game that it is, a campy action-adventure shooter with "zombies", it's a total blast. It is a solid game. It is a bad Resident Evil game.
    251
  2857. I bet there's enough people now who want to see this film out of morbid curiosity that they could claw back some of its budget!
    251
  2858. I was watching the BBC 1 interview with Reynolds and Jackman, and they were talking about how Jackman has come to visit Reynold's kids to sing the showtune parts of the Greatest Showman. This is the truest buddy action film.
    251
  2859. Disney as a company has burned so many bridges over the years that actors, directors and VFX companies have started avoiding them like they were some sort of plague of unspecified origins.
    251
  2860. As much as I love Henry, he's sorely mistaken if he thinks he can make a show without adding THE MESSAGE to some capacity.
    251
  2861. Nice to see a Marvel movie not be vapid slop for once.
    251
  2862. 2002 was a great year for British horror with 28 days later and dog soldiers coming out. I can't wait to see this but we need a dig soldiers sequel
    251
  2863. I don’t know Drinker, I’m pretty good with chop sticks.
    250
  2864. Literally just finished the original trilogy and it’s so crazy that those movies still surpass so much what’s available today.
    250
  2865. Anyone else (Not)Surprised by celebrities acting like they have a hard life with their millions?
    250
  2866. "But Drinker you terrifyingly attractive Scottish god among men," you hear me say "you are just an ignorant wrong thinker, this movie is just to complex for our feeble minds!"
    250
  2867. DD, Punisher and JJ S01 are highly rewatchable which is a rare thing for a TV show. Great casting, script and production. Go away now
    250
  2868. "You're a wizard Harry" fart noise laughed way too hard at that, what the hell
    249
  2869. Out of those 30 million, 20 went to Nic Cage's pocket and he didn't shoot a single frame. Fucking insane.
    249
  2870. " So i was stirring some coffee into my whiskey this morning " oh jeez , here we go again ...Increase sarcasm to maximum ...:)
    249
  2871. One of the few horror movies that actually scares me.
    249
  2872. Thank you, it's fine to enjoy the duels of the Prequels, they may not have the emotional weight the Original Trilogy fights have, but they're nonetheless spectacular and goosebumps-inducing. That ain't bad at all, but just imagine if the Prequels were more refined and the fights got spectacle AND emotional engagement together, they would've been perfection. ...The throne fight in The Last Jedi or Finn vs Phasma aren't either emotionally impactful or even spectacular. We have zero attachment towards the red guards (why the fuck are they even attacking Kylo, isn't he their superior?), and Phasma is like a much worse version of Episode I Darth Maul, and the choreography is either bland (the only visual thing in Finn vs Phasma is the powerless Michael Bay explosions around them) or it's pure shit (the red guards being purely stupid because otherwise Rey and Kylo would lose, and the infamous dagger being edited out). Fucking rubbish. I really have no clue how Episode 9 will make me care in the slightest for the well-being of anyone. I already know that I'll yell "USE THE FUCKING LIGHTSPEED KAMIKAZE" at every space battle. Fuck you very much, Ryan.
    249
  2873. People said the same thing about the different English accents in 'The Death of Stalin'. Then it was pointed out how it was a pretty good way to represent the vastness of the Soviet Union where people obviously would have spoken with different Russian accents.
    248
  2874. You never mentioned how the controls during multiple times, rips the controls away from you during gameplay. This is never a good thing, ever. It was the biggest thing that frustrated me in the game. ps. your channel should have way more views, you have good breakdowns on things.
    248
  2875. Im visiting scotland in a month. I cant wait to practice my Drinker® voice with everyone around me
    247
  2876. I'd love to see a modern film about Simo Haya, or just the Winter War in general. These guys seem to know what they're doing.
    247
  2877. That 400 million they were gonna lose just doubled then 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
    247
  2878. Whenever I see Bryce Dallas Howard I'm just reminded of that Black Mirror episode she starred in about the social credit system. I thought she did a pretty good job in that role. I'd love to see her in something that makes good use of her abilities and doesn't require the stretch of the imagination that it takes to believe that she had been a spy/assassin. It's unfortunate for her, really. Uma Thurman, Lucy Liu and Darryl Hanna could pull it off in the Kill Bill films. Howard... not so much.

  2879. When Wendy unleashes "SKY DRAGON'S ROAR!" against Captain Hook and his pirates, I smiled with pure happiness and glee.
    246
  2880. Hot fuzz script was so well done.Evwry single thing that was said at some point in the movie,all of them turned out to be important plot points and great call back joke.Its honestly one of my favorite comedies of all time.
    246
  2881. I’m a very casual Star Trek fan. That short film was absolutely great.
    245
  2882. Whoever is spreading the rumor that Ghost Busters 2 sucked needs to stop. It was amazing. Vigo and Yanosh were the best bad guys ever .
    245
  2883. A billion dollars and we could have gotten Dread: Megacity 1 series with Karl urban and a great cast.
    244
  2884. Mark Ruffalo is such a joke at this point I forgot why anyone liked him and this film doesn't help
    244
  2885. Be careful what you wish for, having them bring old TNG characters out might be a bad idea as they might ruin them as they already have with Picard, Luke and Han
    244
  2886. I just enjoyed watching a movie with no Mary Sues and political messages shoved down my throat. So it was off to a good start from the beginning.
    243
  2887. No, Boko Haram isn't enough of a problem- Oakland is the place in most dire need...
    243
  2888. If only George would have gotten off his butt and written the books, none of this would have happened.
    243
  2889. I still love the film (and Gal), but damn your videos are great, LMAO!
    242
  2890. I agree with you 100% and I'm a woman. It feels like writers are holding Jon back & pandering
    242
  2891. The character arc for most of the female characters in GoT have been pretty decent, and while there has been a strong under current of feminism in recent media I don't think it has really done too much damage to the show thank goodness. But Daenerys... let's face it, she's only 'powerful' because of the dragons. She behaves live a petulant brat most of the time, and I've never really understood her apparent appeal, or what inspires people (much stronger and better people at that) to follow her. I don't really rate Emilia Clark much in this role personally, and if it wasn't for the strong supporting cast that props her up, I'd be a lot less interested in the show. I really don't want to see her on the throne in the end!
    242
  2892. Wait, in the original story, weren't the Lost Boys boys because only little boys are that STUPID? It WAS! "There are no "lost girls" because, as Peter explains, girls are far too clever to fall out of their prams." So them diversifying the cast of Lost Boys is actually a self-own, they changed the source to make girls STUPIDER. Great work as always Moden Disney.
    242
  2893. Ending your video by giving the Critical Doggo the spotlight he deserves…..CLASSY 😎
    242
  2894. The damage is already done. (She) killed a couple of world favourite franchizes, and the world seldomly universaly agrees about anything.
    241
  2895. The last time any action movie pushed the limits of filmmaking like this was like Mad Max: Fury Road or Mission Impossible: Fallout. What a blast this was in IMAX
    241
  2896. The detail that always stuck with me in this serie is that the crew actually think of depressurizing the ship and donning their space suits when they expect to be shot at and have the hull take a beating or be punctured. Shows how much the writers care about making the world believable and coherent.
    240
  2897. "Now remember, when things look bad and it looks like you're not gonna make it, then you gotta get mean. I mean plumb, mad-dog mean. Cause if you lose your head and you give up then you neither live nor win. That's just the way it is." - Clint Eastwood (Josey Wales)
    240
  2898. 2 things no one mentions: The End (apocalypse now homage), and Jimmy Stewart as Jiminy Cricket. This movie was a riot all around for a cinephile like me. The Japanese stylized animation work was superb too. Speed lines, dropped frames, 2D hand drawn animation, in a modern hollywood movie. Incredible.
    240
  2899. Predator 2 is quite underrated. Danny Glover makes for a great lead. Also Rocky 2 is awesome. My favorite moment is when he’s running up the steps and you got all the kids running behind him and cheering him on. There’s something really feel good about that moment.
    239
  2900. I think Clan of the Cave Bear should be better remade with the creators of Game of Thrones (HBO) or Vikings (History)
    239
  2901. It is not a guilty pleasure I'd argue. To quote Honest Trailers: "Back when Summer Blockbusters was light and campy, [as opposed to now] when they're dark and Nolany".
    239
  2902. We need "Go away now" and "Nah, it'll be fine" shirts.
    238
  2903. I agree with the Drinker's critique. Hill House was scarier, and more family focused, making the chills effective. Bly Manor WAS decent, but more centred around romance, lacked any powerful chills, and seemed to take FOREVER to wrap. 😁
    238
  2904. The big problem I see with WB's handling of Suicide Squad, is that they're trying to copy the dynamics between the Guardians of the Galaxy, but keep forgetting that that's exactly what Suicide Squad wasn't supposed to be. It was partially a means to get villains with strong personalities to work together, but not get along. In the comics (and even the animated movies), the fact that each member is ultimately disposable and easily replaced, creates a sense of tension. The only goal for the ones stuck in the Squad, is to stay alive until Waller had enough fun, or they find a way to get rid of the bombs. But much of the entertainment is centered around seeing the Suicide Squad deal with each others' abrasiveness and the issue that some of them openly despise each other, plus they all become the laughingstock of the criminal underworld. But at the end of the day, they are only driven by their desire to get back at Waller, and it's also the only unifier between them, which isn't a whole lot. So ,the movies trying to sell this dumbass sense of camaraderie between them just feels wrong on way too many levels, especially with Captain Boomerang among them - y'know, the insanely racist and constantly cursing aussie? Hard to imagine that anyone would want to be friends with him, when he's always the asshole.
    237
  2905. “Soiled themselves” Basically Lucasfilm right now
    237
  2906. “Well, that’s definitely shite” has become a daily phrase for me
    237
  2907. Picture this: Its 10 years from now and the mutilated corpse once known as star wars is no longer generating revenue because their main fanbase was pushed to the side in favor of the woke nonfans who enjoyed baby yoda
    237
  2908. It looks like... Puts on sunglasses ...They're in endgame now
    237
  2909. Every time Drinker uploads unlike with these shows I click instantly because I know it would be worth the time.
    237
  2910. 3:49 There's a reason why the xenomorphs from Alien don't have eyes.
    236
  2911. S8 Ep3: "This is essentially, the end of the Dothraki.." S8Ep5: "Alalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalalala(Dothraki rampaging through King's Landing streets.)
    235
  2912. The character was meant to have been trained since childhood to nearly the same standards as a clone trooper. He should have been a steely warrior Like Captain Rex advising the resistance and struggling to adapt outside the Storm trooper corps. Instead he’s just another Jar Jar.
    235
  2913. Seeing this crap unfold on screen really makes me regret even liking The Clone Wars initially, because if we ever knew how awful Filloni was with full creative control, we would've been better off having that show being forgotten and thrown in the trash by now.
    235
  2914. Anyone who says Lara Croft is nothing but eye-candy clearly never played the games.
    235
  2915. That old poster really was a masterpiece. It does a great job of overtly advertising the show, but has so much subtlety you can read into. Makes sense that it all sailed over modern Hollywood’s head.
    235
  2916. The GB 2016 scene really encapsulated the tired tropes that most modern (read:SJW) media loves to tread: 1. Overexplaining: particularly of science and math, because "we fucking love science". 2. Self congratulations: Constantly praising among each other, always high fiving. 3. Nothing ever matters: they are playing with a nuclear ray gun, but hey no problems, let her run it out of juice and shatter her body all over the alley. For the lols!!! You see these themes CONSTANTLY in marvel comics as well. The scientists will be overexplaining gibberish concepts (to show the team, typically only comprising girls and poc, are really really smart u guiz), constantly self validating, and no stakes whatsoever. Nobody (female/minority) really gets hurt. It's just... Bleagh. No wonder marvel comics is failing, and no wonder GB2016 failed. Storytelling is fading fast in those circles.
    235
  2917. "Now it would be unfair of me to say that every celebrity is like this because clearly there's still good people out there that have managed to stay humble, grounded, and grateful for what they have. And resist the darker impulses of ego and attention seeking." I like that as The Critical Drinker is saying this a clip of Superman from Man of Steel plays at 7:31. Which is very fitting since Henry Cavill seems to be one of the few good celebrities who hasn't let the fame go to his head. :)
    234
  2918. If I had one wish, it would be that this review would be posted over Hollywood in continuous loop for 24 hours. The honesty and truth of this is CD's finest work to-date, and everyone I know agree with him, even the "woke" crowd; we're all sick of this preaching veneer, and it's insulting. Thank you from across the Pond, Critical Drinker.
    233
  2919. Hopefully this is more Cobra Kai and less (MUCH less) Last Jedi.
    233
  2920. Haven't seen it, but if what you say is true. Then having a modern remake that follows and respects the original source material is a breath of fresh air.
    233
  2921. Honestly I loved this video, usually your videos are rants about "woke culture" ruining movies and storytelling (not to say I don't love that) but I am happy to see you took time to explain what went wrong AND how to make it better while keeping the same message proving that the real problem with these kinds of stories is the poor writing and characters not the themes or messages. You can have strong women in movies but they have to be well written.
    233
  2922. Probably Ruin Johnson gave some advice to that pair of idiots, remember that they are working together for Lucasfilms ...
    232
  2923. My only gripe is the whole “we have to divert from our mission to help the people!” theme. Everyone in El Reno, Enid, Stillwater, etc. knows exactly what to do in a tornado. They didn’t need these guys rolling up to tell them to “lay down” or “get in the basement.” Other than that, loved it.
    232
  2924. I will always believe this until the day I die: the best way to promote positive cultural and social change in media is to ensure that every character is treated the same way, regardless of their gender/race/ethnicity/religion/sexuality/etc. Uhura was such a revolutionary character because she was just another part of the crew. She didn’t get special treatment, both positive and negative, because of her race and gender. Neither did Sulu. That’s what modern Hollywood needs to understand. The majority of people don’t hate strong women, or gay kiss scenes, or transgender characters because of those traits, but how it’s constantly portrayed as some kind of unique difference that makes them better than other people because they have had to suffer more. Their is a time and place for social commentary, and movies/shows can have discussions about it (like Static Shock did with Richie’s dad), but it should not be the core focus of the content. It’s kinda like adding spice to a recipe. To little, and it lacks the kick that makes the meal exciting. To much, and you just made an inedible meal that’s impossible to digest.
    231
  2925. Pitch Meeting Guy: “Irish-Romulan hybrids are tight!”
    231
  2926. I’m usually hyped for every Marvel movie but this one yea not so much. It’s the first one I’ll likely not be going to the theaters to watch and just skip to EndGame.
    231
  2927. My girl put it perfectly “I used to like this show but every episode is the same. Nothing changes and when someone dies someone less interesting just fills the role”
    230
  2928. True story here: When this came out, my friend Tom dragged me to it. I fell asleep at one point. At the end, I challenged myself to say something nice about the movie. I said, "That's the most like-able I've ever seen Rosie O'Donnell." Tom replied, "That was Melissa McCarthy." THIS movie is the one that inspired me never again to pay to see another prequel, sequel, remake, reboot, or YET ANOTHER comic book superhero movie. That means sometimes there are no movies that qualify, and sometimes only one. As a result, my sanity has remained largely intact.
    230
  2929. Wow! Holdo is my favorite character too! Great video, man, I couldn’t’ve put it better myself.
    230
  2930. Zach Snyder has slowly descended into being Uwe Boll with a big budget.
    230
  2931. I was looking at the screen in awe during Roderick's lemonade monologue. The children were hilarious pricks with great performances too. Awesome show. Bruce Greenwood was absolutely the best.
    229
  2932. It was fun enough to watch and enjoy it. Just what I needed tbh. There is quite a lot of inconsistencies and illogical stuff but this movie obviously wasn't meant to be some thought provoking masterpiece but rather an action flick with a hint of horror and mystery. I do recommend it.
    229
  2933. Thank you. So many just want attention but we all just want people informed.
    228
  2934. I've watched all your videos Drinker, often with my rescue hound listening. Thanks for bringing awareness to greyhounds. They are the most awesome dogs and the fact that you are using your platform and that you have two, is a testament to your character. Tonight, i'll be buying a plushy and drinking a whisky on the couch, scratching my hounds ears and saluting you.
    228
  2935. Come on Amazon, at least make some decent costumes instead of whatever plastic crap this is 😂
    228
  2936. Can't believe people on twitter are attacking him for wearing a fat suit in this movie? The internet today is kind of crazy. Btw I'm very glad to see him getting what he deserves. His performance is amazing.
    227
  2937. One of the few movies this year that motivated me to go to the cinema. Loved every minute of it. And Is very accurate, specially with the James May Grand Tour report on this historical event in my head.
    227
  2938. I loved the part when Peter says "You're a Wizard Wendy!" , literal chills!
    227
  2939. I remember the golden age of Disney animation I grew up with as a child. It’s so incredibly disheartening to see what modern Disney has become. What a dumpster fire.
    226
  2940. I’m already an alchoholic so luckily this movie can’t push me to the bottle.
    226
  2941. I've seen more footage of Daisy Ridley training to be Rey than i've seen of Rey training to be a Jedi. :( Rey's a perfect Disney Princess who opened all the loot boxes. That's what she is. That's all she is.
    226
  2942. Im south Korean and I'm just really happy right now.
    226
  2943. The fact they critique both sides is why they can’t be cancelled because it validates everyone’s opinions. Not only is it the funniest cartoon ever made but it’s also the only piece of mainstream media to just tell it like it is. AI, College being useless, pointless pandering, intellectual laziness and the death of creativity, they covered so much in one episode and still touched on it all perfectly. Much funnier than the Streaming Wars event they did. Panderverse is a GOATed episode. Best SP had been in years.
    226
  2944. It is worse in a completely different manner than dark fate. Not a lot of movies can reach both ends of the crap spectrum. 🎩 🐍 no step on SNEK! 🇺🇸🇭🇰
    226
  2945. "In a galaxy far, far away it really is possible to get your hair cut in a vending machine."   -  The line that put a mottled, coffee layer on my monitor & odd, sideways looks from work colleagues you despicable, funny git.
    226
  2946. You glorious Scottish bastard, you earned a subscription with this video masterpiece Cheers bruv
    225
  2947. This will get more views than some BS late night show. You crushed it man! Twenty six full minutes with Russell Crowe. You’re on fire now!
    224
  2948. I watched it with my gf last night and I mostly agree with what the drinker said. Very flawed, but the dynamic between Eddie and Venom is so solid it's worth a watch. Not in theaters per say, but I'd give it a solid recommendation when it's on streaming apps in a few months.
    224
  2949. Drinker Annihilation is a movie that asks Nay begs for your reviewing skills Truly, it begs
    224
  2950. Never thought I'd ever see One Piece on the Drinker's channel. I guess that's how good of a job the team behind the series actually did.
    222
  2951. I laughed enough to think it was worth my time. I'm looking forward to DW making more polished stuff as they move forward.
    221
  2952. “Look upon my works, ye fandom, and despair.” That seems to be the only driving force behind Hollywood.
    221
  2953. The most unbelievable thing about this movie is the fact it was released
    221
  2954. The Drinker quotes "Soldier" "Ah, I see you're a man of culture as well."
    220
  2955. 2022 was one seriously Morbious Year!
    220
  2956. I've been following you for years, through you I was introduced to Mauler. I genuinely respect the way you two go about your craft. Live Long and Prosper. P.s. If there's a way to keep this comment private and not have it show up, that would be great. I just wanted to send a donation with a private message.
    219
  2957. Can't believe Drinker forgot the Canadians who fought on D-Day :(
    219
  2958. Great video, surprised it doesn't have far more views. Good quality, nice editing, insightful commentary. 10/10 would chainsaw again
    219
  2959. The only movie I’ve ever seen where people actually stood up and cheered.
    218
  2960. Title: "Fixes Finn" The Actual Video: Fixes Finn and Rose
    218
  2961. "Then a bunch of stupid shit happens" should have been the Last Jedi's opening crawl. Then roll credits.
    217
  2962. Ahsoka in the animated series was such a charismatic character with real emotion displayed and a real depth of character. It is sad that they seem to have told Rosario Dawson to play her role like a Terminator with no emotion.
    216
  2963. Imagine if they did a crossover movie between MonsterVerse and Pacific Rim. The clash between Earth's Kaiju and Jaegers would be pure unadulterated awesomeness.
    216
  2964. You’re the only person I’m subscribed to that actually lets me know that these shows exist. I haven’t watched television in years and thank the Good Lord for it. I’ve clearly missed nothing of importance.
    216
  2965. Agatha Harkness was always a secondary character (who would sometimes play an important role here or there but you could go whole years at a time without seeing her once) in the Fantastic Four comics. Crap, she was sometimes Franklin Richards babysitter. She's supposedly a woman who actually was alive (and a young witch at the time) when the Salem Witches were prosecuted (Yes, in Marvel if I remember correctly though the witch hunt got the wrong people there really were witches). In the Fantastic Four she was mostly depicted as an old (of course she'd be hundreds of years old by now) but dignified woman , who, as a witch was pretty powerful and knew lots of useful things and often she ran the remaining Salem witches. She helped Doctor Strange a few times over the years, but mostly she was restricted to Fantastic Four comics and relatively few people know who she is compared to someone like Iron Man. I don't know her past enough to say she was never evil, but by the time the Fantastic Four encounter her she seems to be mostly if not entirely a 'white' magician. What they did to her character in Wandavision, to me, was unforgiveable. And it's sad they are busy changing/assasinating her character while trying to make her a star in this, the most pathetic time ever for the Marvel Universe and Marvel Movies. Agatha deserves better.
    216
  2966. The part where Galadriel finds Billy Bedlam going through her daughters belongings and commands him to “put the bunny back in the box” was truly revolutionary.
    215
  2967. A clap and a half for this demise. That's the level of apathy, not even an applause
    215
  2968. I can only thank the last jedi for one thing: being so stupid and frustrating enough for me to try my own hand at writing better stories than this dumpster fire that rian johnson made.
    214
  2969. woke up with a hangover, made some cheap mac 'n cheese, and started watching the drinker. It's going to be a good Friday.
    214
  2970. As a Australian we sincerely apologize for that so called break dancer
    213
  2971. Congratulations!
    213
  2972. Like Wonder Woman said in her new trailer: "It's just a trash can"
    213
  2973. Poor Ford, the old man is so tired of these damn movies that he didn't even bother to change his casual clothes for the film recording.
    213
  2974. Our thanks to you for selflessly watching this movie and save us from having to do so. Clearly you are the sarcastic drunken white male hero we need!
    213
  2975. Spider-verse does more for multiverse ideas in a single film than MCU has managed to with several films. What's scary about this film is that it packs more creativity in any fifteen minute period than most films have in their runtime. The art styles, productions values, and animation tricks... I felt like I was somehow watching the worlds more cogent acid trip but not feeling lost in the slightest. It isn't quite as strong as the original on its own purely because it isn't a completed arc like "Into" was. Likelihood is that how I feel about this film will be altered by how "Beyond" sticks the landing. That said it is absolutely amazing and I feel spoiled by the film. We have had an embarrassment of true treasures between this and Puss in Boots: The Last Wish in this last year. Sony Pictures Animation truly is treading into dangerous frontier with a boldness you rarely see.
    212
  2976. Absolutely loving the stream of "There's only one Blade, and there's only gonna be one Blade" comments
    212
  2977. The main issue with the weirdly sudden black goop injection is that the film did an extremely poor job at conveying why that decision was made. It's supposed to be that the pregnant woman with the injured leg is too injured to make it back to the ship, so she injects the goop into her because earlier Andy and the others were talking about it potentially helping her but since she was around to see what the goop was, she didn't know it was an experimental xenomorph serum. So the scene is supposed to portray that she only knows that it's some kind of medicine that Andy said has a chance to heal her, so she gambles on that to heal her enough to make it back to the ship without knowing of the repercussions. HOWEVER, the scene doesn't show her getting healed at all as she hobbles the same as she did before the serum injection, which defeats the point of injecting it in the first place. She SHOULD have become unable to move due to her injury having gotten worse over time, so after the serum injection she should have begun moving more easily, possibly with an amazed smile for a "Wow, it does work!" moment to tease that maaaaaaybe the serum has a chance (i mean, we all know it doesn't, but it's for the characters more so than the audience).
    212
  2978. Cameron has stated that they focused a lot more on visuals and spectacle in the last film, and will be dedicating more time for characters and story
    212
  2979. In the late 700’s, there was a period of time in the Byzantine empire where there was a movement to destroy art; particularly in churches. It got so extensive that the Catholic Church had to convene a council to address the matter. It seems like we’re currently living through something similar
    212
  2980. I wouldnt be surprised if Elon gives Bob an ultimatum. "Hi Bob!"
    211
  2981. I love how Cyborg uses a blackout for secrecy! The first thing anybody does during a blackout is LOOK OUT A WINDOW to see if anybody else has lost power as well!
    211
  2982. CORRECTION: A sequel everybody demanded not to exist
    211
  2983. original version: you honestly thought there was a small chance they wouldn't survive and it was funny because they could acknowledge their flaws without forcing jokes on the audience. garbage version: you know they are stronger, tougher, faster, smarter and just better than the originals just ask them, plus everything has to be funny, that's right asskicking indestructible comedians force feeding the audience recycled, lame jokes
    211
  2984. The way they're getting butthurt with that Steam Curator highlighting what games they're involved with is hilarious.
    210
  2985. Right before John McClane jumps off that roof, he says only two things - a promise never to go into a tall building ever again...and a prayer to God to "...don't let me die." That was the kind of action hero we needed.
    210
  2986. The late Sir Christopher Lee warned us about this and explained it in an exceptional interview. He called it upward failure. Where directors, companies and actors all make movies and tv shows that nobody wants to see. Then they double down and say “well no because you’re just etc” meanwhile they rake in the money large sums of money even though the media they’ve created is terrible. His words couldn’t be truer at this point in time.
    209
  2987. Remember: There is no such thing as "Too Big to Fail".
    209
  2988. I wanted to like Rey so much. When we first saw her, I thought "oh, cute girl who's kinda funny, let's see where they go with this" and all we got with her and every other character is inconsequential feats of superhuman ability over and over again to the tune of every cliche.
    209
  2989. One of the most complete scripts in a film of all time. The nuances and variety of genres and themes, and how it all superbly ties in effortlessly within two hours, is a masterpiece in filmmaking. The setting and visuals tell their own stories, even today there are new things found to talk about with this film. There are very few films like this, and how different it could have been if that pink blob was introduced instead.
    209
  2990. Things would be much easier if writers would just watch videos like this. P.S. Kill Bill was an amazing film as well
    209
  2991. I plan on spending my money on Bar Wars: The Rise of Johnny Walker
    208
  2992. "I'm the bad guy? How'd that happen? I did everything they told me to."- Bill Such a powerful video, Drinker. One of your best. Cheers!!!!
    208
  2993. lmao... You included my favorite moment in this entire game series. *walks right by huge melting snake* "Jill, have you found anything interesting?"
    207
  2994. Remember when creators wrote new stories? I mean, it hasn't happened much in my lifetime, but I bet it was pretty neat!
    207
  2995. Social media is contributing to further rotting the minds and the critical thinking abilities of the masses, as is our public school system. Great analysis on this extremely overrated movie, and very poignant Stalin reference, by the way.
    207
  2996. I do think a movie can be both thematically satisfying AND a well-structured masterpiece. However for every "Fight Club" there's gonna be a "Mother" to fuck that up. At the end of the day, I think the Drinker's sums it up best: *"idea's only as good as the execution,"* god damn, well said.
    207
  2997. "In the pursuit of great, we failed to do good" That line gets to me everytime, reminding that greatness and the way forward are not always in the best interest at times and how the road to hell can be paved with good intentions.
    207
  2998. A timeless classic that I watch once every few years. And by getting older I fully understand what he was going through and why he snapped.
    207
  2999. I noticed the trend of remakes as we know it now began in the mid 00's. I was doing film studies at the time I thought even then that Hollywood's creative flair began to die.

  3001. "Did you hear about the new Lord of the Rings series?" "Is it being made by californians?" "Yes." "Not interested."
    206
  3002. Am I the only one missing the expertly shot and mostly practical action scenes of the predecessor? All this new weightless CGI overload didn’t really do it for me in this movie
    206
  3003. Would you recommend it for someone that never really got into the karate kid?

  3004. I was 3 years old when Hugh first played Wolverine. Now at 26, being able to go to the theater and still see him as Wolverine is a gift. The guy is so fucking good as this character it’s insane. I don’t want him to ever stop. You can’t top what he’s done.
    205
  3005. 5:18 man this really is what I took from this movie. It was a swansong for that truly flawed comic book era in the early 2000s that held glimpses of promise and earnestness in them despite thier issues. Now everything is so corporatized and formulaic that these films will be held up as early classics in another 10 years. And when I tell you i was dancing in my chair in the beginning and then teared up by the end I knew this film was something special and from the heart with Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman. And those credits with the behind the scene footage of those classic early days was truly an emotional gutpunch for me.
    204
  3006. I kinda agree with your closing comments, Critical. James Cameron has been derided as a filmmaker before. Usually right before he blows us out the back of the cinema with his latest visual masterpiece. And frankly a simple, engaging story, told well, that entertains me for a couple of hours, is bloody light years ahead of pretty much everything else infesting Hollywood right now! It's why Top Gun: Maverick did so well this year. But, Avatar 2 is coming out at almost exactly the wrong time for what he needs it to do at the box office. People are having to make increasingly difficult choices about what they spend their hard earned money on. Going to the movies has always been firmly in the 'luxury' column. (Unfortunately these days, 'luxury' seems to be being redefined to 'we still have a roof over our heads for another week, everyone ate tonight, and no outstanding bills'.) I can't help but wonder if two billion dollars is needed because he's already shot the lion's share of the live action/mocap needed for four movies, barring pickups, and the studio has cut him off until they get some sort of return. $2Billion would pay for it all, and any box office for the next three sequels would be almost pure profit. It would also explain why the marketing for Avatar 2 has been a bit lackluster. They've already spent enough money. I hope it does well, or at least well enough to justify Cameron's continued career. I truly do not want him to disappear. His movies rarely fail to bring something interesting to the table. I don't want him to fail, but I can't see how he will succeed this time. Ultimately, it feels the same as the latest Matrix sequel to me. Like the creator is flogging a dead horse to extract that last bit of blood&bone. If these sequels had started dropping around 2012 or so, striking while the iron was hot, then $2Billion would probably have happened. But, it's been to long...

  3007. My favorite was when Hawk told Johnny he might be on the autism spectrum, and Johnny responds "Well get off it, pronto!"
    204
  3008. I've been going through The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles (for like the fourth time). It's massively entertaining and like 20 movies worth of Indy back story with a cinema quality in a way that could never be made today. It sucks that modern everything is awful, but gems like this are still out there to enjoy.
    204
  3009. "The show is becoming Game of Thrones," went from the highest compliment to the biggest insult.

  3012. Lets hope this is the start of something big.

  3013. The original movie is just so good and weird (good and weird). It was a staple of my childhood and infinitely quotable. Portraying the afterlife as a boring bureaucracy was genius. I was (and am) worried about how they could recapture the magic. I've heard from some that it is excellent, but your review Drinker is honestly the best case I could have hoped for. Not devaluing the original, not applying "the Message," and not trying to just recreate the original 35 years later.
    202
  3014. Way to Go Dune for not letting Hollyweird “Woke” you Down and keeping it true to the book 🥳
    202
  3015. In Thrawn's first ever appearance in the book "Heir To The Empire", the climax of the novel has him use mining technology to burrow through the walls of Republic warships at a shipyard and send stormtroopers in to capture them all. The heroes figure out how to make the same tech keep on burrowing, resulting in more bulkheads being destroyed and the boarding parties getting exposed to the vacuum of space so that they get killed and can't make off with the ships. But even there, with his plan having failed, Thrawn is like "Well, better retreat now. We didn't get what we really wanted, but all of those Republic ships are disabled now and can't be used against us anytime soon, so at least there's that." That's MY Grand Admiral Thrawn. Even in his defeat there was a victory of sorts. Not sure WHO this imposter on the show is...

  3022. This movie could never be made today, every reason is a testament to what’s wrong with movies today. But mostly it’s because there are no actors and directors with that talent and caliber today.

  3023. Changing a lightsaber from blue to red like that destroys every ounce of lore when it comes to creating a lightsaber's Khyber crystal.

  3024. To answer the question: it was panic. They saw Marvel raking in buckets of cash and thought "holy shit, how do we hop on this gravy train?" Thinking the answer was "make a superhero movie!" they managed to overlook the fact that Marvel spent years building their franchise. Wasn't Iron Man from 2008? It was nearly 5 years of world-building before all the heroes were in the same film. DC realized they were late to the party and while there was an equally long gap between Man of Steel and Justice League, it's pretty clear those films were not meant to be connected in any meaningful way like Iron Man and The Avengers were. Everything after Man of Steel is just an effort to jam as much as possible into as little time as possible to catch up to Marvel. As pointed out in the video here - the end result is a complete mess. The Marvel cinematic universe, for all the flaws it has, is exceptional for the fact that a studio was convinced to play the long game - and holy crap did it ever pay off.

  3027. Jeremy Renner is the maestro. I'm sure we all wish him the best possible recovery from his snowcat accident. I just love how he handled himself with Brie in that interview! All good wishes.
    198
  3028. Thanks to Josh Hartnett's charm and likability, you'd find yourself siding with the protagonist, since he also has a genuinely sweet relationship with his daughter. But then you'd remember that he's the clear baddie. It gave me "You" vibes with Penn Badgley.
    198
  3029. It's been 31 years since this film came out, and yet it still remains relevant today.

  3030. "Now, I'd be lying if I said there was anything particularly subversive or unexpected in Gran Turismo." That's all I needed for a selling point, Drinker. Now I'm gonna take my gamer friends to see this in theaters. We don't play Gran Turismo, we're a more Need for Speed and Burnout group, but it should still be a pretty good time.
    197
  3031. I just found it ridiculous how Osha all of the sudden is a martial arts expert😂😂 also is Disney trying to say she invented the force choke.??

  3032. "If they don't know where they're going, then why should I care?" Spot on, man. The MCU has been running headless ever since (and IMO including) Endgame.

  3033. This just reminded me of how hard the Boss fight on MGS3 was, not game play, but emotionally.
    197
  3034. It's become everything it was setting out to be the opposite of. CGI fest with no substance. Main characters are untouchable even when literally covered in wights, Arya is Batman, the queen of ridiculous deus ex machina. Just trash, they were so concerned about making it look cool and have feminist/fan service, that the actual story is dumb beyond words. The enemies are unstoppable killing machines until they encounter a main character, then they don't attack and literally put the main characters in striking range of their random weak points. I might be done with the show now, it's pointless at this point, the rest is not gonna save this. They wasted their Thanos with no major kills and think we're supposed to be excited for the B villain. Did Ronin or Ultron get a bigger kill count(especially major kills) than Thanos? No, there's a reason for that.
    197
  3035. I was a fan too. But I watched about 20 minutes of S4e1 and that was enough. What a shame.
    196
  3036. There was a line from The Sandman comics that has always stuck with me: “death gives life meaning.” Because we (and fictional characters) can die it makes us valuable with the time we have and the things we do. Work, blood, sweat, tears, sacrifices mean something. But when you can just wave a hand and resurrect someone you bring them back but it has a price: the value of that life that was restored.
    196
  3037. I can believe that Jared Leto's Joker wasn't the mastermind

  3047. Last time I was this early cinematic story telling was still a thing

  3049. 0:22 - 0:26 What the Critical Drinker actually does on the streets of Glasgow after a piss-up.
    193
  3050. The biggest insult to me was them changing her powers from the comics. The show runner thought being able to copy people's moves was a lame superpower, so she decided to make it Echo even lamer by giving her the ability to 'echo back to her ancestors.' Whatever the fck that means.
    192
  3051. There is a difference between "strong female characters", a character who's female, and a character whose feminity matters. Rey is a "strong female character"; Ripley's a character who happens to be female (in the first movie, at least), and Sarah Connor is a character whose womanhood is relevant. Her arc in T2 is about recovering her own femininity and motherhood, which she has abandoned to be more like the man she thinks John needs. She regained that when she says men can only destroy, but women know what life actually feels like. She has her own monomyth, if John is a parallel to a messianic figure, Sarah's the equivalent of Mary. She's absolutely the best character written for a woman, imo.
    192
  3052. Dude I'm not kidding when you talked about Luke at the end, as an actor I literally teared up. I experienced that myself in a smaller way and it totally broke my heart and Now I literally don't even recognize that " franchise " that I have represented in the past. I thought the same thing you did , , they hated having Luke Skywalker in that movie. Honestly man thank you for taking the time to see this actors heart. And I'd like to think that he has seen your video before and felt encouraged, where they made him feel lonely before. I don't know if you're the best writer in the world, but right now you are to me .
    192
  3053. Ah, Drinker. You eloquent wordsmith of excellence, you! I have been having a bad week at work and needed something to cheer me up. And, like clockwork, you upload a new video! I hope you know just how awesome you are and never lose sight of it.

  3055. The usual concise and articulate rundown from the drinker. You can count on him to be soberingly truthful and amusing. He's become my favorite movie critic.
    190
  3056. I've been Kraven this review. Sorry, I had to. I'll see myself out as soon as I finish the video.
    190
  3057. Why Mark Ruffalo was chosen to be a Trumplica I have no idea. I was so confused in the theater throughout this whole movie
    190
  3058. I didn't jump to 3:08, you owe me a bevey. Good review, just the right amount of sarcasm as usual.
    189
  3059. You knocked this one out of the park
    189
  3060. Big studio pumps $200M into a woke movie that nobody likes or watches. The Drinker downs a $20 bottle of bourbon, takes same woke movie, reviews it, and everyone is thoroughly entertained and made happy in an otherwise shifty year. --CHEERS MATE !!!
    189
  3061. Whenever the drinker says something positive about Marvel, like the title of the video, you know it's a joke
    189
  3062. Say what you will, McKenna Grace is a really good fit for Egon's grand-daughter, and authentically looks related to Harold Ramis too. Great casting.
    188
  3063. "He learned how to do joined-up handwritin', and they actually tried to set him on fire!" I accept this as an absolutely true and historically-accurate recounting of an event in the Drinker's life, and nothing can convince me to the contrary.
    188
  3064. Another factor is overblown marketing and advertising budgets. The worse a product is, the more you have to convince them to buy it. This would fall somewhere between symptom and root cause though
    187
  3065. That movie left me completely speechless. In some parts of the movie, it really felt like a horror movie, especially that cheering scene near the end. But truly, Cillian Murphy and the rest of the actors, the scoring, and the writing really made the movie tangibly intense.
    187
  3066. "What do we say to the God of Good Writing?" "Not Today"
    187
  3067. Terminator 2 was released at $100 million in 1991. There were a few movie studios gone the same route of "big budget" thinking or hoping for a bigger hit than T2. Drinker gave us a finance course in film.
    187
  3068. What makes me love the movie is Dennis Hopper's performance as the villain who is always trying to depict himself as a civilized gentleman while he's threatening and murdering people left and right, it's totally hilarious.
    186
  3069. There is loads online about both main actors refusing to be part of the promotion because the 3rd act has been totally changed and interfered with. So I think we will be happy for an hour and then very unhappy for the rest of the film, if that plays out
    186
  3070. They made Joel seem like a total psycho in the last episode to retcon him into the second game's Joel.
    186
  3071. Whenever I have a grand opportunity to create an awkward moment by telling someone that, “I am a meat popsicle.” I go for it.
    186
  3072. I must say I am with you on the Captain Marvel killing Thanos idea. It's been what, 11 years building up to this moment. We have met, loved, laughed and mourned heroes in those 11 years, we have a connection with those heroes and a passion to see them succeed. Then along comes a character that no one has really ever liked, had one luke warm outing in the cinemas and we are to believe she is the Thanos killer. People want to see their heroes win, not some shoe-horned ex machina who turns up at the last minute that no one likes. It's almost like hollywood has forgotten what a story arc is, cause "strong female characters" these days just don't have one. She is strong! But why? She is brave! But why? She is powerful! But why? Important story telling narrative is glossed over or just left out cause the character has a vagina.
    186
  3073. We need people like The Drinker to keep on steering the entertainment industry in the right track.Deep respect Sir.It is very difficult to find such objective neutral critiques of anything these days.❤❤🤘🤘🤘
    185
  3074. The critic is more entertaining and makes more sense than 90% of the movies.
    184
  3075. Ten bucks says they replace her with someone even worse.
    184
  3076. Can you imagine getting a set up for a new Qui Gon, learning a new language! And then the show turns your character to this…
    183
  3077. Lets ALL be 1,000% honest here! We ALL would watch a show about John Wick working in Starbucks, even if it was pure normal work and no one ever got killed, it would STILL be better than THIS season 8! <.< Is that my Double foam latte John?...... >.> Yes....it would appear it is...... <.< ....Thank you John.... >.> Be seeing you around.....
    183
  3078. I've seen soooo many analyses on TLJ. You would think that people would run out of criticisms or deconstructions or plotholes but no. Yours is a welcomed voice. I have never, never, never in my life heard so MANY poingiant, striking, well thought out, thorough, and downright ingenious critiques of ANY other film than I have of this one. It just goes to show you how deeply this movie wounded so many, how disrespectful it was, and how much these characters were loved. Ruminations like these don't come from just seeing a bad movie, they come from some place much deeper. There is NOTHING close to the complexity of emotion and psychology that goes into these critiques on the side of those who defend this movie. I've been done with Star Wars for quite some time, but I am just starting to realize that the damage this movie has done will be spoken of passionately for decades to come.
    182
  3079. Army of Darkness is way better than this, IMO.😂
    182
  3080. “Y’know when you’re taking a piss?” Best couple of seconds to a video ever.
    181
  3081. Wow. Seeing dozens of Captain Marvel critiques, but I feel like I've come across a real gem here. Superb analysis. Well informed, balanced, fair, and taps directly into how many of us feel without resorting to insult. Fantastic video and an easy sub. Keep it up!
    181
  3082. It is amazing what is possible when you put the audience first instead of your preferred narratives!
    181
  3083. People responsible for Kabal's design - thank you, you brought the nerd out of a 32 year old man, god damn that suit s amazing

  3084. My gun is like an American Express: I never leave home without it.
    181
  3085. Drinker.....I've been on Marvel since Ironman 1 and I have to agree with your analysis of the now" Marvel Formula" that is stifling the directors. I would have LOVED to see a true Sam Raimi rated R Doctor Strange.
    181
  3086. Yes, you must appreciate it for subverting the expectations of fans that were waiting 30+ years for Han, Luke, and Leia to be reunited on-screen. Foolish us for wanting them to be on-screen at the same time. And also that Luke has evolved past caring whether a good friend of his (Han Solo) died.
    181
  3087. People tried to warn Marvel that this show would fail, but they were like "Nah, it'll be fine".
    181
  3088. That last shot says it all. We lost ScarJo, and were given Brie Larsen as a substitute
    181
  3089. I’m so glad that Disney didn’t decrease the blood and gore on this one. The amount of bone breaking and blood gives me the excitement and it looks like a continuation to the Netflix Series. It actually looks promising from the trailer. Hope the series itself actually pays off.
    181
  3090. I am so sad to have to agree with the points made in this video, but agree I do, friend. I really think you're spot on in remarking that Hamill gives his all to this performance and that even his best effort can't save this movie because Johnson so clearly wanted to denigrate Luke. I mean even right down to his looks. Hamill looked great in that last shot of Force Awakens, he looks great in real life (working hard in recent years to get in shape for the part) and what does The Last Jedi do? Trades out the new jedi robes for a drab raincoat, gives him a sloppy haircut and a Duck Dynasty beard. Or they do the silly flashback scenes with the obvious hair and beard dye job. Hamill was the same age when they started filming this new trilogy as Alec Guiness was when shooting Star Wars - 62 - they could have just gone in that direction and so many of us would have LOVED IT. I expected this Luke to be reluctant and embittered, but I also expected Rey to be able to convince him to get back in the fight. The Luke I know would have done that. But don't take my word for it - just watch what Hamill himself said about that on the DVD documentary. It will be a Christmas miracle if Episode 9 can salvage this mess, and I'm not holding my breath. What a disservice to such a wonderful character and classic tale. Thanks, Critical Drinker, for giving voice to others who think like you and I do.
    181
  3091. Please make it stop already 😭
    181
  3092. My favorite part, was when Wendy told Peter Pan. That, they drew 1st blood. Stunning & brave

  3094. Iron Man and the Cap were the heart of the MCU. Hell, I never thought Chris Evans was charismatic until they casted Brie Larson and Chadwick Boseman.
    180
  3095. Gee, a starship rising out of the water, where have I seen that already? (Hint: Star Trek Into Darkness).
    180
  3096. I also think today vs 90s early 3D era is a case of limitations breeding creativity. Back then you had a TON of restriction from the 2D sprite era that made certain game ideas impossible, and moving into 3D finally opened up those ideas to explore (while still having restrictions with hardware limitations of the day that fostered more creativity in the process). Today only the budget is the limit it seems, combined with it becoming a high cash flow market, we are getting super awesome looking sameness. Even investor/publisher meddling aside, when you possibilities are limitless, you can get decision paralysis or confusion because you have to keep deciding what to do. Games should always be designed first without hardware in mind. The theme and mechanics and framework need to be ironed out. If the environment does not limit you, you have to make your own limitations and stick to them.
    180
  3097. 3:50: The mech from District 9 looks SIGNIFICANTLY better than the one in Atlas Shrugged shown 7 seconds later and District 9 came out 15 years ago AND cost $70 million less to make.

  3100. Who would've thought GIVING THE FANS SOMETHING NOT RIDDLED WITH SOCIAL JUSTICE WOULD MAKE MONEY AND NOT PISS THEM OFF?!?!
    179
  3101. This is the perfect “AI plot summary” movie lol
    179
  3102. Doctor Who gives a damn at this point. Good riddance.
    178
  3103. This movie always seemed to me as a good PSA for having shoes.
    178
  3104. As a 51 year old who grew up loving Star Wars and with a room full of merchandise. I can honestly say I stopped watching after force awakens. The new shite means nothing to me. The same goes for star trek. Thanks to these bastards I've saved a lot of money. No more buying merchandise for me.
    178
  3105. I used to love Lara's original voice actress. It was a bad decision to replace her after the first game, never had the same personality to it.
    178
  3106. I'm seeing it, it will be like what happened in The Walking Dead when Negan appeared the first time The difference is that Negan was a charismatic villain, and he didn't kill Rick
    178
  3107. Their "heroes" are actually villains. Who else would try to mock, belittle and destroy everything we once loved and admired with passion? Their authors are just talentless bullies masked in random-nerd t-shirts, who came with torches sniffing for money - only right after our SUPERHEROES started making billions worldwide. The real battle is now upon us, placed in reality. Thank you, Critical Drinker. Epic exposure of money-greedy destroyers of the worlds.
    177
  3108. I wouldn’t just call the return of the Jedi fight the best fight scene but it and it’s aftermath are easily the most important scenes in all of Star Wars. Every major theme of this series is laid bare here, redemption, forgiveness, doing what’s right not what’s easy It and Vader throwing palps down a hole are also the resolution of every major force using character in both the original and prequel trilogy and it’s my belief that the sequel trilogy is hated by the fans so much is because it betrays this climax of 6 movies worth of story telling
    177
  3109. There's a huge difference between fan service and member berries. It seems like the Drinker explained the difference in responses I've seen to the movie. Film Threat raved out bit, but Nerdrotic and a few fellow commentators seemed disappointed by it. So it comes down to this: Is watching Ryan and Hugh cosplay for two hours worth it?

  3110. Man, I can still remember the furore caused by Ghostbusters 2016 and thinking "hmm, maybe movie studios will learn from this and not repeat their mistakes, let alone making these mistakes their very foundation"... But boy was I wrong
    177
  3111. I am an old-school comic book fan. I started collecting them in the early 80s and Amazing Spider-Man quickly became my favorite. For many years, I was looking forward to a genuinely good superhero movie. We got Blade, in 1998 which I really enjoyed, but I didn't feel that the dream had really been achieved until Tobey MacGuire graced the screen as Spider-Man in 2002. Finally, a GOOD representation of my favorite childhood superhero. Then, six years later, we got Iron Man--my brother in law's favorite character. And again, it was GOOD! The MCU was just starting and we got a whole host of excellent (and some not-so-good) superhero movies. This all reached a crescendo with the two part Infinity War story arc. At this point, we are already starting to get hefty doses of the political activist garbage, but you could overlook it because the stories were still really good. Then it was over. Spider-Man: No Way Home was a really good late-comer, but really, the superhero genre was pretty played out at that point. Speaking as an old-school comic book fan, I can tell you with absolutely certainty that I am thoroughly done with superhero movies. They have overstayed their welcome and now I just want them to go away.

  3112. "Not guys with whom to fuck" has got to be the best quote Ive heard in a while.
    176
  3113. 3:41 I liked the voting addition as it really helps cement that any action past the first game is the contestants own fault. They can leave whenver they want but chose to stick around because of their own greed, showing that it's less the games themselves and more the people.
    176
  3114. I'll just like to announce this, Shazam just beat carol danvers in death battle, so basically, the (real) captain marvel won!
    176
  3115. I cheered when you showed the part from Farscape. Every time I hear people talk about women being weak in film and television I think of Aeryn, Chiana, and Zaan, and how each of them had their own distinct brand of strength that ran a wide gamut of archetypes.
    176
  3116. It's one of the saddest movies ever and it's very haunting, I think some audiences don't like the ending but the point of the movie is it's a story about the soldiers, they focused at the main character's path to war and he portrays the embodiment effect of horror of war. In the end, they fight for nothing, fighting for another rich man's war, they fight for the generals and kings, leaders who are the most coward of all and one of the striking moments of the movie is food, food resembles life and satisfaction, the movie shows a good contrast between the food of the soldiers and the food of the officials, Food is living and the soldiers only wants that, every food they eat reminds them of home , home that they should never left in the first place, and they regretted to leave their food just for the misleading excitement and joy for war.
    175
  3117. A bit of a mess, but entertaining enough.
    175
  3118. Drinker is the best. We only watch what you like in this household.
    175
  3119. I LOVED this movie. I was hooked from the first scene. It really does execute the assassin idea in a new way, which is so ironic since this is much more realistic to what a modern day assassin would be like, and more grounded in reality. You could tell there was a lot of thought put into this movie, and it's such a refreshing experience on the 'Action Assassin' genre. I hope other film makers take notes from this movie.
    175
  3120. More lows than highs 😅
    175
  3121. In an effort to continue to subvert our expectations, in the remaining episodes: Cersei will get drunk and break her neck in a tub Euron will get drunk and fall off his ship and drown Sansa will strangle Danerys with her own braids Drogon will accidentally crush Tyrion by sitting on him Jon will scream at the Mountain until the Mountain chops his head off Dan and dumbass: "Bet you didn't see that coming did you? See how awesome our writing skillz be?"
    174
  3122. It's sad when this film makes Terminator 3 look like Terminator 2.
    174
  3123. My respects to the Drinker on putting a little effort on giving to the ones in need with the campain. Drinker, you little piece of heaven down on Earth I hear people say!❤
    174
  3124. One of the most emotionally charged movies in recent years, genuinely brought out tears by the end. Wrestling scenes were also very well done
    174
  3125. Did everything the same with the Lion King just watered down…plus adding White Lion Supremacists lol
    174
  3126. The next incarnation of The Doctor should be written & portrayed by The Critical Drinker.
    173
  3127. The fact that a movie about a Lizard fighting a Monke and a flick about teens running from Twisters have become the kind of entertainment we need these days just warms my heart.
    173
  3128. "Video game plotting" even though there's a tone of video games out there that have better plotlines and delivery than most Hollywood movies
    172
  3129. I salute Critical. He's sacrificing his brain cells for our entertainment. I don't want to make an effot to even sail the high seas for these ones.
    172
  3130. The original Japanese Godzilla films were jarring in themselves. Some were somber anti-war or anti-pollution commentaries, some were batshit insane adventures with aliens, some go for a darker and more grounded approach, and some are kids' movies.
    171
  3131. Do I kill one of these complicit cult members.... or my boyfriend. Who is the hero?
    171
  3132. They have a literal Enterprise D holgram in the main Starfleet Building, you'd think the captain of a ship worthy of holographic representation in Starfleet's Headquarters would be quite well known.
    171
  3133. When I saw this film yesterday, all I could think at some points was: oh drinkers gonna absolutely fucking demolish this
    171
  3134. Kudos to D'Onofrio and CC for sticking around for the fans in what is clearly an uphill battle to maintain the integrity of the successful entertaining show they helped create. Sadly Henson, Woll and the rest of the cast and creators Disney effed over are probably better off.
    170
  3135. I'm embarrassed Lance Reddick dedicated his time to this. He's an outstanding character actor who could do so much better. I hope he was well paid.
    170
  3136. I feel bad for Brandon Routh. He turned in an incredible Christopher Reeve impersonation. But it was a terrible, thankless script.
    170
  3137. "I am a meat popsicle".......possibly the greatest line, delivered in the most perfect way, in movie history...
    170
  3138. The Rings of Power is basically Tolkien ordered from Temu. Well, maybe that's where a lot of the costuming cane from.
    170
  3139. You should change the name of your channel to Sarcastic Syrup!? Because it’s Thick as Honey and Absolutely Delicious!!!
    169
  3140. I've only seen one video and I love the sarcasm subscribing
    169
  3141. It's been a long time since we've been blessed with an "Ellie's gay by the way".
    169
  3142. I watched this movie with my father, and when we first saw that insane, one-take, 20 minute action scene when they break the family out of prison, we both just looked at eachother and smiled. It's like the insane, violent, action activated our lizard brain. I'm glad you enjoyed this film as much as I did, Mr. Drinker.
    169
  3143. I’ll say I agree with Critical Drinker. I lost interest after the first 5 episodes.
    169
  3144. Adding that old yeller death scene was top shelf golden humor I was rolling with hardy gut laughter I’m still giggling at it thanks
    169
  3145. Me and my family traveled to Iquitos in Peru for an Amazon cruise. Iquitos is the largest city in the world to which there are no roads. You can fly or you can take a boat but it's in the middle of the Amazon jungle. One of the crew, Walter Saxer, the production manager, returned there, having married a local girl. He bought a hotel, which he renamed La Casa Fitzcarraldo, that was used previously by the crew during the shoot. We stayed there and it had lots of memorabilia from the film and Walter had some crazy stories of the shoot. Indeed we stayed in the Mick Jagger suite, where he also stayed (but had to leave to go on tour so was edited out of the film!).
    169
  3146. "for all of them were deceived for another wig was made" - saw this and im dying 😂
    168
  3147. Had to rush to put my situational Disabilities to bed. Drinker videos come first!!
    168
  3148. "Goddammit, why can't more shows be like this?" Best blurb ever.
    168
  3149. This should be required viewing for all youtube/entertainment journal online reviewers. I saw this video when it came out and I agreed in the abstract, but after listening to a few positive reviews (apologetics really) for shite movies, it really hit home - it pithily explained the frustration I felt with those reviews.
    168
  3150. HOW ARE YOU GONNA TURN INTO A BLACK FART, AND NOT EXPECT HOSTILITY. This scene is the equivalent of grabbing a snake by the tail and expecting it not to bite your ass. The ultimate Fuck around & Find out Test, where you do something at the highest level of "Fuck Around", and expect the lowest outcome of "Find Out"
    168
  3151. I allowed myself to be dragged to this thing, and I believe THIS was the movie that made me institute my policy of never again paying to see a sequel, prequel, reboot, remake, or comic book superhero movie. I can state for a fact that your analysis of it is not only CORRECT, but INFINITELY more entertaining than the actual film. Bless you! All good wishes.
    167
  3152. You forgot all about that Black Triss Merigold.
    167
  3153. i absolutely hated the look of the hobbit films, this soft-light, afternoon low budget TV romance show garbage
    166
  3154. It’s SO SO GOODDD. I fell in love with the world, the characters, the story, the look, everything. It’s both comforting and challenging. Lovely and disturbing (in a good way). Brilliant creators and actors.
    165
  3155. "...a bit of tweaking..." Change the story in major ways so that it's actually worth watching.
    164
  3156. Recapturing the best magic of the sci-fi horror genre from the glory days is clearly no easy feat in this generation. At least Sigourney Weaver thought it was worth the effort so long after all her Alien work. Thank you, Critical Drinker.
    164
  3157. "Schieß dem Fenster." ???? "Shoot the glass!!!" Always cracks me up 😂
    163
  3158. I remember when isaw Blade with Snipes and i was blown,pure masterpiece. When i seen Black Panther i got depressed...could not believe they make such a poor action scene,boring really.
    163
  3159. Drinker never disappoints
    163
  3160. I'm cautiously optimistic about Daredevil: Born Again, but otherwise, I don't have a lot of faith in Marvel, even though I was a big fan during the Infinity Saga.
    162
  3161. I loved it. As a history fanatic i enjoyed the movie's play on those events. Plus, the night fight in no man's land was one of the most badass scenes I've seen in a while.
    162
  3162. This man never fails to speak facts
    162
  3163. According to Chris Gore, based on his experience at Comic Con 2024, Marvel is well aware that their backlog is terrible. They’re throwing it all out at once to make way for RDJ as Doctor Doom.
    162
  3164. another example of how sam witwer is an amazing actor, he gets the material he understands what makes these stories work. he didnt inject himself into it at all. amazing job all around
    162
  3165. A Superman with colour and hope and who actually saves instead of dark, dreary, nonsense? Hooray!
    162
  3166. Imagine listening to this without watching it. Or being someone who doesn't understand sarcasm. Quality piss taking sir 🙂
    162
  3167. Using light cavalry to charge a battle line of infantry that A. Outnumbers you, and B. Can't be routed by fear. Yeah..
    162
  3168. I was hoping you’d get to this! My girlfriend showed this to me and was upset that I kept predicting the episodes as we were watching. It wasn’t until the show was over that I told her ‘dude it’s literally every Edgar Allen Poe story but modern’
    161
  3169. The writers have lost the plot. Rather than deliver a satisfying, organic story whuch wraps up 8 years of of building plot.they are focused on delivering spectacle, fan fav moments and surprises that are poorly set up.
    161
  3170. 6:20 Throw in First Blood in there, Sly acted well in that film particularly in the finale.
    161
  3171. Why did Emo Ren's lightsaber 'clothesline' the guy instead of cutting him in half?
    161
  3172. If I just awoke from a 5 year coma and watched this video, I think I might close my eyes and just slip away... Unfortunately, I’ve been wide awake through this car crash of an entire franchise so thank the Force for Critical Drinker and his stewardship through the carnage.
    161
  3173. We still watch the whole trilogy in a single sitting once a year, on the 2nd day of every new year, to remind ourselves of the good in this fucked up world.
    161
  3174. It's almost as if if Old Trek portrayed its characters as as actual seasoned military officers. Unlike New Trek that has characters that would have been kicked out of boot camp after a week for being unprofessional.
    160
  3175. I appreciate how deliberately paced this film was. Everything felt focused and meaningful, similar to the protagonist himself.
    160
  3176. After all, they wanted to make a SCREAM teenage horror version of Alien, so this is what happens
    160
  3177. Which is why "Upgrade" was so awesome. Laser focused Indie movie, absolutely perfect Halloween treat. It also had a bugdet of only 3 Million and looks spectacular, especially the VFX. It's insane what you can accomplish when you have a motivated Crew and actors and no bloated story made by a dozen different people.
    160
  3178. Man I laughed until tears dropped from my eyes through the entire video. The sarcasm in his sentences comes off as very funny. You've got a new sub, mate.👍
    159
  3179. Well, yeah, so, people seem bizarrely confused. Ridley Scott has never been a good writer. Never. He's a gifted director, his cinematography is perfect, but writing? He didn't write Alien, he didn't write Bladerunner, why would people think he could write other Alien films?
    159
  3180. The games in the 90's had generally more soul within them. No microtransactions, no fancy graphics, but compelling gameplays and fascinating stories. I cannot recall anything as epic as Baldur's Gate Saga, which, within its good vs. evil narrative, managed to present a whole spectrum of moral stances, provided companions and NPC's whose strengths were not their sexual orientations, but their stories and dilemmas they faced, and gave the players some freedom in terms of dealing with certain problems. And now one developer wants us to get hyped about adding NPC's to a deeply flawed game that used to be a great franchise, another claims tgat we should get excited, because the new game would be a single player without microtransactions. To paraphrase the witty, yet inebriated genius himself - F**k off, devs! Thank goodness there is Cyberpunk on the horizon
    158
  3181. The part where Galadriel loses Wilson on the raft and cant save him literally had me shaking
    158
  3182. How a writer can take their own character and suck the entire personality they themselves created for the character out and turn them into capt marvel is just amazing to witness. I remember back when I just thought the severe difference in the actresses voices was going to be hard to ignore. Solved that. Just made her an ahsoka looking Droid.
    157
  3183. That was an extremely sobering ending for this video. Disney Star Wars could be taken to any business seminar, for years to come, and used as an example of what not to do. What a resounding failure for the ages.
    157
  3184. As far as I know, Keanu Reeves has not revealed his political opinions but since many consider him to be one of the most earnest and humble actors, I hope to god he doesn’t.
    157
  3185. I mean, fair play for the movie to point out how stupid Peter's alter ego of Spider-Man is and how easy it would be to figure it out. BUT THEN they have Zendaya make the point that every other person in the school is an idiot EXCEPT FOR HER because they didn't figure it out. You can't have your cake and eat it too.
    157
  3186. Predator was released 35 years ago this week. That's the only Predator movie you need to watch.
    157
  3187. Aliens is one of the best sequels of all times
    157
  3188. Hell yeah! After watching all the Stargate shows, watching Firefly was awesome. I was very sad to see it was cancelled.
    157
  3189. In my opinion Stanley Kubrick is one of the greatest directors of all time. His dedication to perfection is remarkable and we need more directors like him.
    156
  3190. Man, here’s a testament to how good this movie was: your 20 minute review is enough to creep me out.
    156
  3191. Yoda said : "Do or do not, there is no.. Naah, it'll be fine..."
    156
  3192. I feel for Winona Ryder. She clearly was broken on the Hollywood wheel a few times and behaves like she has been in Josef Fritzls basement for a few years. If she ever writes a tell all you'll probably need to wear marigold gloves and have something to be sick in.
    156
  3193. So close, so close to having just one good tv-show.
    156
  3194. If this movie has one thing, it's the scene of the fair ground attendees slowly being dragged up into the monster and eventually being eaten while screaming and moaning in horror at what's happening to them. It's chilling to listen to.
    156
  3195. When sarcastic interpretation makes more sense than the “canon” narrative.
    156
  3196. This show just degenerated into a misandrists wet dream...glad I stopped watching it when the decent first season ended
    155
  3197. One of the fairest reviews I've seen on this game, bravo mate. However I have to completely disagree about the game passing the message of "revenge destroys you" to the player at all. First of all, any time a character does a morally good action, the story punishes them for it (Joel saved a total stranger-> she kills him, Abby spared Ellie and Tommy->they come for her, ellie tried to get information from bf-dude and pregnant-lady without killing them->they try to kill her and she's forced to kill them). Ellie did indeed lose everything in her quest for vengeance and in the end did the morally right thing and forgave Abby, therefore forfeiting her revenge. Abby lost nothing in her quest for revenge and even accomplished it, most of her friends died at the hands of ellie in self defense and they weren't just innocent bystanders, they were accomplishes to Joel's murder, and in the end having satisfied her lust for revenge even gets a chance at redemption and a proper life in the form of Lev. So one of the characters gets her revenge, loses nothing to achieve it and in the end gets a chance at a new life while the other forfeits her revenge (having killed literally hundreds of unrelated people to get to that point), loses literally everything she has in the process and has absolutely no chance at redemption, having lost even her father's final gift to her (playing the guitar). If anything, the message I got was "seeking revenge or not, be as ruthless as you can be, lower your guard for no one even if they're tied up and at the point of a gun, leave no loose ends and never forgive", which I'm pretty sure is not the message ND intended, basically turning us all into tlou1's Joel, the guy they are trying so hard to frame as an irredeemable villain.
    155
  3198. The Mauler slander 😂
    154
  3199. Love your "production hell" vids, almost always with more insight and honest reflection on failed and somehow-made projects anywhere outside of actual documentaries (ala "The Death of Superman Lives: What Happened?" or "Lost Soul: The Doomed Journey of Richard Stanley's Island of Dr. Moreau"). BTW, good to see new merch available, just in time for Christmas.
    154
  3200. And in addition to everything else: why the hell are all the ghosts colored like some damn candy?
    154
  3201. The special features on the DVD releases, particularly the special edition, where these stories are recounted, are soooo awesome. If you are a fan of this movie and the characters behind the characters, seek out the special features wherever you can find them. There are plenty of great stories Drinker didn't cover as well. Arnold putting the crew through PT every day, the actors trying to one-up each other by showing up to the gym earlier and earlier in the morning, and so many more.
    154
  3202. Davros original design is brilliant. In Genisis of the Daleks we spend an entire episode exploring the past version of Skaro. A deciamated, lifeless husk of a planet where war has been the status quo for a very long time. And then at the end of the episode Davros is revealed and just by looking at him you immediately understand why this man would create the Daleks. He is a man moulded by decades of pain, death and destruction that he is now only capable of responding with violence and what made him scary was that he was so intelligent that his response would be heard far beyond his own planet
    153
  3203. You know, Drinker. I think you need to use that clip of Luke drinking the green tit slime a few more times. I only puked 8 times during this video and I feel like we can get that number up.
    153
  3204. Gaun yersel Drinker. A beautiful tribute to a beautiful little film. The Star Trek all us fans deserve.
    153
  3205. I rooted for the crazy, stereotyped caricatures that were supposed to be soldiers. As a Veteran who has seen most of James Cameron's films, its apparent he has never actually interacted with or been around real, actual Military personnel in his life.
    153
  3206. Instead of embracing women’s natural beauty, staying in shape, and not pushing misandry, Hollyweird keeps messages of man hate and believing that every character has to be “strong and independent.” That gets old and boring quickly and in case they didn’t know: every woman can’t be smart, strong, and independent. (Yes people. It’s a reupload)
    153
  3207. Robert Eggers is the best director of our current times.
    153
  3208. “Close your eyes.” Alien: o_o
    153
  3209. One of my favorites of all time. The scene where Robert Shaw tells the story of the Indianapolis is one of my favorite scenes from all of cinema. My local theater is showing old classics in a bid to get people back into the seats, all properly distanced mind, Jaws is one of them. Just a week ago I got to take my daughters to see it on the big screen.
    153
  3210. This looks awesome! Great work Drinker!
    153
  3211. Speaking of comedic timing, I appreciate how the drinker says “it won’t set your world on fire” as not deadshot is lighting someone on fire
    153
  3212. Brilliant! Id watch the whole movie again if you were commenting on it the whole time
    152
  3213. Your wrap-up suggestion of "let it rest" resonates with me. I'm in my early 50s, and am one of those "old" Star Wars fans. The best thing Disney could do is just let it die, completely. It's run its course; some might say it's overstayed its welcome. Don't give it a rest for 5-10 years, just put it into the crypt and call it good. There were, in fact, only three good Star Wars movies worth anything, and those were all released before most of your fans were alive. ;-)
    151
  3214. The Aeris death scene absolutely gutted me back in the day, and my god still does to this day... When that music plays with the cling sound of the materia hitting the ground... holy fuck
    151
  3215. JJ Abrams always runs away before the formula he established gets stale. His formula works amazingly well for the first film. But the wow factor ends after the first movie. But he's never been forced to stick around and finish anything...until now. He's being forced to finish the new Star Wars movies. And if he can't pull a rabbit out of his hat, he's finally going to be blamed for killing a franchise. His formula has killed many series already. But now he can't put the blame on someone else. It's all on him this time.
    151
  3216. I loved the part when Black Adam says "it's Adamin time" and Adamed all over Hawkman.
    151
  3217. Thank you for making me realise how wrong I was to hate this film with an undying, burning passion that could incinerate the stars themselves. Clearly this is a work of unparalleled genius that I was simply too stupid to appreciate. Thank you Mr Drinker, and thank you too Rian Johnson for having the courage to make this important film which quite rightly puts the previous Star Wars films in their proper place as deficient, inadequate, simplistic, childish, flaw-ridden feeble efforts that pale next to the towering edifice of your masterwork.... You talentless, vandalising 'C'.
    150
  3218. Remember what today is, folks
    149
  3219. I won't lie I wasn't expecting it to look this good. I'm excited to see this drinker. We need more people like you making movies that the public will actually like and appreciate
    149
  3220. I applauded when you pointed out how viewers shouldn't have to be saddled with the responsibility of taking time to watch a previous series to understand what was happening on a completely new show.
    149
  3221. Don’t forget kids playing football on the highway and don’t even care about car coming just for her to save them and show her weakness. Unbelievable
    149
  3222. I sorta liked the Shuri (?) genius kid, until she patronised legit genius Banner in Infinity War, whereupon I could have hulked out on his behalf.
    148
  3223. Kinski actually wanted to quit during the shoot. Apparently, Herzog told him that Kinski would only manage to make it around the first bent of the river by which Herzog would have shot him. Basically a shotgun film.
    148
  3224. And to think- if Dougray Scott hadn't gotten hurt during the filming of Mission: Impossible 2, Hugh Jackman wouldn't be a household name right now...
    148
  3225. Let's go! Gotta get popcorn ready
    147
  3226. You skipped right past one of the most glaring plotholes: The plan to ring the bells to surrender (ff at 15) was Tyrion's. The messenger to convey this agreement to Cersei was Jamie, yes, the Jamie that got stuck swordfighting Euron, who randomly washed up on the beach. In short, JAMIE NEVER DELIVERED THE MESSAGE. so how did anyone in king's landing even know to ring the bells at all??? Contrived. Dilemma. The writing for this show is awful.
    147
  3227. From a DWARF: Thank you! As a dwarf in the arts field, hearing the backwards progressive Snow White news, infuriated me! I'm not sure what I'm gonna do now lol. I appreciate you shining light on the subject so well. :virtualhug:
    147
  3228. What it should have been: Arya should have used her 'Faceless' ability to appear as Bran, and truly Assassinate The Night King when he approached gloatingly.
    146
  3229. Born-and-raised Oklahoman here! So cool to see our state on the big screen. There aren't exactly a whole lot of "Avengers-level threats" taking place here usually so it's a nice change of pace to see our little towns make it into theaters. Never realized that tornadoes were such a uniquely terrifying meteorological anomaly until I lived out of state for a few years. Haha.
    146
  3230. I think the MCU's formula is really starting to fall apart at this point. Some will call it a sign of the times... and it is, but I don't think it really had to be. Shame what's happened to Marvel on the whole.
    146
  3231. its a first season...I've seen worse first seasons Feels like the studio didn't want it to out shine the sequel trilogy
    146
  3232. Out of all the reviewers on YouTube...you are my favorite! Cheers!!!!
    146
  3233. You missed an opportunity to put the Father Ted music on the "Craggy Island" scenes.
    145
  3234. Every german kid that grew up on the internetz in the early 2000s knows the Klaus Kinski rant
    145
  3235. Few things make me as happy as The Critical Drinker tearing apart bad writing, ridiculous plot holes, and "woke" characters.
    145
  3236. Drinker and Co. dunking on Chris Stuckman is the funniest thing I didn't even know I wanted
    145
  3237. One of the most painful things is seeing a side by side comparison of the character and the voice actor. Hayley Atwell is a beauty blessed with cannons like a manifestation of Venus, just like the original Croft. Then there's this tomboyish avatar built with only the slightest nod towards her femininity and a face that does nothing to emphasise the breathtaking beauty essential to the character.
    145
  3238. Man, David Mack’s original take on Echo in his Daredevil run was so cool and interesting. You got into her head in such a visually arresting way that would have made for a mindblowing TV show. It was beautiful. This looks like dreck.
    145
  3239. The most touching moments where Iceman's scenes. I'm so glad that they included Val Kilmer in this project, and he performed them well.
    145
  3240. These reviews are more entertaining than anything Disney has produced since endgame 😊
    145
  3241. Strangely, I did like the scene of the hippy family singing space oddity but not so much the Mrs. Chen dance scene. Overall, had the same thought though. The movie was fun, and that’s all I really wanted out of it.
    145
  3242. If everybody could just enhance their calm, it would be a better world!
    144
  3243. That intro is the best analogy I have ever heard for what the DC universe is. Definitely an "Already-Drunk Tina" showing up at 1am with bruised knees and a bottle of Popov wondering why people are leaving.
    144
  3244. With the crap we’ve been getting, I approached this with mid-expectations…. Needless to say, the fact I binged the first 6 episodes then forced myself to watch the last two later tells ya, I had similar enthralled emotions towards this amazing story. From the characters, to the world, the animation and the music (a note I’m surprised you didn’t touch on), it was such a fun and emotional ride. I am looking forward to season 2
    144
  3245. He remarked on how the movie had real actors playing real characters straight. First thing to notice - unlike cliched horror, I see adults. Main characters in their 30s and 40s, instead of the usual early 20 somethings college road trip. Even in supposedly "professional" contexts, ,post casts look like a 20 something ensemble a few years past their highschool ensemble movie.
    144
  3246. The film is definitely not terrible but once you understand that they need to make a LOTR movie every 10 years or they loose the license, you kinda know why this movie was made.
    144
  3247. My favorite scene was the one where the strong women saunter around with a confident deadpan smirk on their face. That's how you know they are strong.
    143
  3248. Holy fuck It was so painful to watch Jeremy AKA Hawkeye have to be there zoned out to a point where he looked uncomfortable, like he was looking at 'Wow this is where all our work landed us?'
    143
  3249. I had no interest in the RE series but this video makes me wanna try it out. Good job.
    143
  3250. In episode 1 they say, "We don't know who her real mother was." And that sentence is both technically true by itself and wildly misleading in context. The phrasing implies we have no clue of the mother's heritage, but in reality there are only 2.5 options: Her mother was either Cleopatra V or Cleopatra VI (or they were the same person). And that means her mother was just as Greek as her father, since their dynasty was so incestuous they put the Targaryens to shame. The show is full of these deliberate half-truths. Ancient Aliens uses the same trick.
    143
  3251. Ive seen the clip from the TV in which he was honored. Brings a tear to my eye every time. Some people are just quiet heroes that don’t expect a thing in return. God love them.
    143
  3252. The War of the Rohirrim’ shows us Middle-earth’s past, but with animation this stiff, it feels like the One Ring wasn't the only thing stuck in Mordor.
    142
  3253. I've read about the production in Roger Ebert's books, but I'd never seen actual video of it- thanks, Drinker! Herzog was one of Ebert's favorite directors, and he gave 4 stars (out of 4) to both the movie and the behind the scenes doc "Burden of Dreams". He'd seen clips of the then unfinished doc when the filming was still ongoing, and he said that if Herzog survived and completed the film, it would be one of the most extraordinary achievements in the history of movies.
    142
  3254. The opening scene to Deadpool alone was worth the price of admission. As far as sequels go 2 was not the train wreck we thought it might be. I personally cannot wait for 3!
    142
  3255. They broke canon, humanized orcs, made orc women, and still didn't give us an orc amazonian death-by-snu-snu mommy. Truly, Amazon is lost.
    142
  3256. Who knew gin and vodka could turn a Scot into a genius social commentator using popular media as a tool of enlightenment? I hope you're using all of your Patreon and AdSense money on booze because the world needs your wise, drunken ramblings.
    142
  3257. The problem with Watchmen: Damon Lindelof. The problem with Star Trek Into Darkness: Damon Lindelof. The problem with Prometheus: Damon Lindelof. The problem with Lost: Damon Lindelof. See a pattern? Please stop hiring this hack writer.
    141
  3258. Lord of the Rings is impossible to beat. No one is willing to go that far nowadays.
    141
  3259. Pure! Genius!! I am SO glad this showed up in my recommendations!! Liked, Shared, and Subbed!!!
    140
  3260. Headbutting lightsabers... I feel like Darth "Hunting Jedi is my favorite past time" Vader would have invested in at least a few lightsaber resistant pieces of armor...
    140
  3261. So excited! Just finished reading the series. I'm 37 and haven't read since high school. Cheers for making a series that got me back into reading. Can not wait until this comes out. You rock!
    140
  3262. I saw the trailer the other day and thought “The Drinker will have something to say about this laughless fest.” and I was spot on.
    139
  3263. I liked season 2 a lot, but didn't realize there were so few episodes. Caught me by surprise. I liked the voting part. Stress inducing.
    138
  3264. What’s crazy is I remember being a young kid talking about how Disney buying Star Wars would ruin it with my friends on the bus on the way to school. It’s incredible that a bunch of elementary schoolers saw what others didn’t at the time…..
    138
  3265. I dunno how he went from Event Horizon and the first Mortal Kombat film, to these dumpster fires.
    137
  3266. The first season was great. During the second season I started to get some CW vibes. It's getting a little too young adult focused, by being overly dramatic and unrealistic.
    137
  3267. I think Rey will probably turn out to be the force itself in this movie.
    137
  3268. I appreciate movies that don't spoon feed you every detail and is willing to leave some reasonable gaps in the story. It worked well here in my opinion. My biggest gripe with the movie is the idea that ranchers out in the middle of nowhere have no guns and didn't even consider trying to shoot the Jean Jacket out of the sky.
    137
  3269. The saddest part about this show? These actors will be the face of these beloved characters from now on. Farewell to Taylor Gray, Venessa Marshall, Tiya Sircar, and Ashley Eckstein.
    137
  3270. Brenden Fraser as Fire Fly looks pretty awesome not going to lie and with a voice modulator like he has in Doom patrol it could have been awesome
    136
  3271. My Mom was telling me about a dramatic movie that Melissa McCarthy made about five years ago and she said " well it's a Melissa McCarthy movie but it's not funny "....then I replied " how is that any different than any other Melissa McCarthy movie ? " 😂 True story
    136
  3272. Just watched it myself last night and I told my friends as well "It was a fun movie but I wouldn't call it good, it felt like three episodes of a tv show being mushed into one movie." I found all of the returning cast to be great and very entertaining but the new characters kind of drove me up a wall with the exception of willem dafoe and Jenna Ortega but in the case of Jenna it didn't exactly knock me out of the park
    136
  3273. The ending was basically a cartoon. After that explosion near the end (where literally everyone survives!) I fully expected Edward Norton's character's head to be on backwards and him say "Of course you know, this means war!"
    136
  3274. Filoni didn't just "not save Star Wars", he brought an excavator to help digging the grave while defiling the rotting corpse once more.
    136
  3275. This seems like it could have worked if it focussed on the aging side. Boba Fett was a feared bounty hunter but that sort of thing required a lot of energy, good reflexes etc. There could be a moment of realisation wherein he realises (even recovering his armour and ship) he can't maintain that life forever. However, aside from needing to be restructured around that core theme, Boba Fett should be more intelligent/cunning as a result. He knows he can't reliably beat his opponents in a straight fight anymore and so has to rely on a mix of cunning and the gang equivalent of court-politics. Instead, it seems Disney wanted yet another strong female character as the lead but stuck Boba Fett's more recognisable name onto the title and so felt obliged to include him every now and again.
    136
  3276. Greatest horror movie exchange ever: "What is it?" "I don't know, but whatever it is, it's weird and pissed off." I see your magnum opus is on Kindle. PM me please if you get the chance. I'd like to look into getting a print copy (if available).
    135
  3277. "BELIEVABILITY IS EVERTHING. IT IS THE MOST ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF ANY STAR TREK STORY." (Roddenberry in "Writers/Directors Guide" of TNG. Yes, he used capital letters!!!)
    135
  3278. I like this movie, but man does Bane's plan not make any sense.
    135
  3279. Just saw the movie .. holy shit … gave myself a bit of headache to not start sobbing and sniffling at many parts. I had gone off movies for the most part in the past several years. I hope this lets Hollywood know what kind of movies they should go back to making if they want to start recovering their audience. There is no agenda shoved down your throat in this movie, and the overall message that war is terrible and desperate is kind of agreed upon by pretty much everyone. This is just a simple but well made story, it grips you and anyone can relate, no matter what your "community". There are actually some Indian Colonial troops shown in the movie briefly, and I liked it actually, there was no push at them being there for diversity. They were shown as no more or less than any of the other British troops. They were really quite the same. joking and chatting as comrades all in the same shitty mess. Oh and I like the subtle Black Adder reference in the music at the end of this video, I do believe its the quiet theme music played at the end of the final "Black Adder Goes Forth".
    135
  3280. The make america safe again intro part seemed like it was just shoehorned in last minute to pander and felt so out of place . I was still entertained but it wasn’t as strong as the first season and I found a lot of characters doing things that didn’t make sense like starlight and Huey. And when it was revealed that stormfront had a dark past it got interesting, but when it’s revealed that it’s just that she’s a nazi it lost my interest because that is so overdone and boring now. It was an alright season but if next season continues on the political pandering path instead of better writing I’ll probably just stop watching
    135
  3281. Still want that mad max movie with Mel Gibson
    135
  3282. Gina Carano was defamed and lied about. She absolutely deserves this and a huge apology is the least she should expect.
    135
  3283. This video is packed with truth and some pretty slick burns. Nicely done👍
    134
  3284. My girlfriend put me onto this show and boy I was shocked at how well it is. Character development, the writing, the animations. Definitely worth a binge watch
    134
  3285. Master and Commander was the last movie I watched with my Dad before he passed from cancer. I absolutely loved it when I saw it in theater, and now it holds a very special and emotional reminder of a bittersweet memory of my Pops. Great interview Drinker, cheers!
    134
  3286. When did action blockbusters become lectures from our old unmarried aunt. "I'M NOT GONNA LET A MAN TAKE CREDIT FOR A WOMAN'S WORK" This is... entertaining somehow?
    134
  3287. Things I learned in school: “there was a period when people wanted to look fat, because it showed they were that wealthy they didn’t had to work. Something we can’t imagine doing now.” Or: “There was a time that rich people used to drink chemicals so their skin lightened. Or used to swallow tapeworm eggs, so they could eat more. Unbelievable to us now, isn’t it?” What I hope my kids will learn in school: “there was a time that people whined about anything, say they were offended, just to get it their way. Where the fun of a game was changed in order to make everyone suck at it, so everybody was equally worthless and there were no winners. Where all motivation and strive was gone, so there was no goal or challenge left, just the easy, lazy way out. Can you imagine that would still be around these days?”
    134
  3288. Good on you Drinker for plugging that rescue centre at the end! Will have to go and donate right now!
    133
  3289. Really there are several factors at work here. First many of the original Captain Marvel's (Shazam!)fans resent the fact that Marvel took his name away from him . The fact that his movie is coming out close to the same time hurts also. Second, this isn't even Marvel's original Captain Marvel. She was made Captain Marvel to push a SJW agenda and many Marvel Comic fans resent that. Third Brie Larson running her mouth certainly didn't help any. What we're seeing is kind of the perfect storm here.
    133
  3290. Making a Mad Max movie without Mad Max is like making a Sherlock Holmes movie without Sherlock Holmes. Great video drinker. 🎉
    133
  3291. That river barrel scene sums up the diabolical fuck up of the series by Peter Jackson. Now, where’s Tatiana?
    132
  3292. Just finished the series hopefully it gets a full series man. Proud of ya drinker
    132
  3293. Imagine having a loved character like Marvel do with Loki, who has satisfied fans as both the villain, and the guy who redeemed himself over the space of multiple movies through their hidden sensitivity, charisma, and eventual loyalty that lead to his demise in an attempt to protect what is right. And instead of giving this character the respect they deserve, you degrade them by having a clear weaker person kick them in the nuts just to make the point that minorities can be strong. Who on earth thought that getting a diverse woman to belittle an established and loved character would make people like diverse women. If you're doing it for equity reasons, you couldn't choose to do anything worse than that, because it's only gonna have the opposite effect
    132
  3294. Silco was the freakin best character in this show hands down
    131
  3295. I hate the bad reputation all these bad written characters leave on all of the thousands of well written ones
    131
  3296. It's a wonderful life. Thanks to the Critical Drinker.
    131
  3297. "Remember George, no man is a failure who has friends." In the words of Judas Priest, here come the tears!
    131
  3298. This franchise should have been left alone after Judgement Day. The only good thing that came out of continuing it was Christian Bale's tantrum on Salvation set.
    130
  3299. Hopefully, Drinker's end credit cameo made the final cut. it's hilarious
    130
  3300. I’m just glad Lee Jung-jae is free from this travesty, and can hopefully go back to being in good stuff again.
    130
  3301. The movie had great moments - the poignant moments were the best - but felt a bit of a mess overall. They absolutely raced through a huge amount of story in the opening segment, pre-time travel, and it just felt like half the movie up to that point had been left on the cutting room floor. And they totally did the dirty on Thor, not happy with that at all. I watched a lot of the press & interviews building up to this, and had the impression Hemsworth wasn't happy. Now I see why. Apart from Brie Larsen being a total non-event (she's still rubbish even in the 5 minutes she's in the movie), every worry that people had about Endgame leading into full on SJW Marvel came to pass. I'll be finding other things to spend my time and money on from now on.
    130
  3302. I wish Gene Roddenberry was here to fix his franchise.
    130
  3303. Love how she spins to stab for no reason but stylish points.
    130
  3304. This was a filler episode, and if they need filler for the second episode then they probably have nothing for the rest of the season.
    130
  3305. The Penguin show: being a success The cancelled Batwoman movie: "Am I a joke to you?"
    129
  3306. Mate please do not watch Predator 2018. There will not be enough booth for the both of us.
    129
  3307. I LOVE Edgar Allen Poe & Masque of the Red Death has stuck with me since 2nd grade. This was the best rendition of Poe’s collective works that I’ve ever seen so far.
    128
  3308. So it's another Disney product featuring "the girl that's the key to everything"? I believe we've already seen this flick.
    128
  3309. I have 2 issues with the show: consistency & story structure 1. Consistency: When the TVA minutemen captured Loki so easily and looked so powerful, I thought okay great, this will be a show about Loki having to shed his powers & tricks and just rely on his personality, making him more vulnerable, etc. But then the minutemen and the ATV in general switch to being incompetent fools who can't fight, capture anyone or keep people in custody. Is the TVA very powerful or just a bunch of idiots? 2. Story structure: 2 episodes in, we know that the Loki Variant villain is gathering time reset capsules to mess with time. I never really understood how the time capsules work, what triggering a bunch of them at the same time will do, or why the TVA can't use its Eternals magic to reverse whatever happens. I'm not actually sure what villain Loki wants to do.
    127
  3310. Congrats, Drinker! Must be a great feeling, seeing your characters and story come to life!
    127
  3311. I think the main reason why they've written themselves into a corner is because the approach they took with the character of Rey. It was too heavy-handed and they became too obsessed with the female empowerment issue. Making Rey powerful from nowhere, where she has no training, all these positive virtues has made her feel very dull and as you said very unrelatable. They took this idea and i dont know if it were Kathleen Kennedy's or purely Abram's idea but someone wanted to have a "empowered female" character in Star Wars. This is good but it has to come over time, and it has to be earned in some way. To allow the audience to follow that character, see them fail, find out their flaws and actually "learn", train and grow. So yes as you say "character development". The Star Wars saga was built up over time where we followed characters, watched them grow - Anakin and Luke skywalker and develop. But the writers and people behind this sequel trilogy, they seem to have been so drunk on this female empowerment that they simply expected that us fans would love Rey no matter what, if we just saw her stand next to or go on a little adventure with one or two of the Original Trilogy characters. Well this is not good enough, plus one really messy issue with Rey is in their quest to give Rey female empowerment, they have purposefully segregated her from the OT characters, namely Han Solo and Luke Skywalker, and this does come across purely just because those specific characters are male.
    127
  3312. A blockbuster movie with a good story, likable characters and cool action scenes? I'll take that any day. We honestly need more films like this.
    127
  3313. I went into this with multiple recommendations and loved it. It gave a lot of depth to characters and the story was brilliantly told. Came back happy I wasn't disappointed. Ten trowels out of ten.
    126
  3314. "She has to go deus ex Arya through the next couple of episodes" LOLOL
    126
  3315. Its amazing how much of a black hole Rey's character is, such that when you improve her, almost all the characters around her improve also.
    126
  3316. "The whole thing was starting to look as focused and well organised as a Disney Star Wars movie...." This is bad.
    125
  3317. “Charisma Vacuum” doubled me over with laughter. I’m so relieved this is over, but feel bad for your suffering having to enduring this for all of us.
    125
  3318. Although Brie Larson is an award winning actress, I don't believe the superhero role shows her in the best light. She don't convey any charm or charisma. It's like she really doesn't want to be in the role. I hope the full length movie will prove me wrong. I've enjoyed the MCU and would hate to stop watching it because of bad casting.
    125
  3319. Your reviews are far better than the actual show--- it actually delivers a payoff for having to watch the writing, plotting, acting travesty. Sandman is one of the rare shows that delivers to the fans.
    124
  3320. "The bad guys that would define his career. . ." indignantly points at a Galaxy Quest poster . . . oh Drinker, now you've got to do Galaxy Quest!
    124
  3321. "So forced, cheap, dumb, obvious, desperate gags that came from a mind of a 5 year old". Yep that sums up Ghostbusters 2016 perfectly.
    124
  3322. 2019 was a good year for me. Got a better job, lost 10 pounds, my personal library of books and films expanded, and I have been writing more for my book projects. I hope that 2020 I will get done with a first rough draft an of my book projects
    124
  3323. That scene with Kirk at Spock’s funeral reminded me of the time I was in the army. One of my search and rescue friends had just died on a jump. I chocked up a but regained my composure and continued on. That was about 4 years ago now. The idea of masculine strength is lost on most hollywood writers these days.
    123
  3324. For a 'proof of concept' outing, with minimal budget, I was very impressed. Definitely something I'd watch if it gets picked up and has a good budget given to it. The ladies handled themselves well and impressed you got Mike Dopud and Patrick Gallagher. Good luck Drinker.
    123
  3325. Man... This was so on point that it actually made me sad.
    123
  3326. THE MESSAGE 🗣🗣🔥🔥
    123
  3327. The Expanse is so well rounded its hard to even root for one character. They're all good, even the baddies.
    123
  3328. In retrospect, I think “The Shining” could have really benefited from having a scene where some dude is encased in a bear carcass, cooked, and eaten...
    122
  3329. They could never dream of making a movie as good as aliens ever again
    122
  3330. This video is the perfect description of the utter stupidity of the entertainment business. Well done!
    122
  3331. Strange concept; Giving what the fans want without the message. Brilliant!
    121
  3332. More drinker recommends please! I'm honestly drained from years of just shit entertainment and while I know those negative videos get engagement, some positivity in the world is needed.
    121
  3333. Critical Drinker, roguish Captain of the starship Hustler crewed by a holographic crew of naked Bond girls. The ones from Connery's films, of course. You really don't want to know what he did to the holodeck.
    121
  3334. The only thing worse than bringing back a beloved character just to kill him off, is to bring back a beloved character as nothing but a shadow of his former self, then kill him off and trap him inside a synth body as they did with Picard 😭
    121
  3335. I don’t even watch it, but I can see that in the times we live in, South Park has become a hero to all common sense people who don’t like the garbage most big budget tv shows and movies are putting out.
    120
  3336. About gosh darn time! THIS show should've gone viral BEFORE Squid Game.
    120
  3337. Hell yes! Glad you are endorsing this. Literally the only reason I pay for YouTube Red. Soon as the show is done, I'm cancelling. Go away now...
    120
  3338. I had hoped Netflix would pick it up, since it would fit in the their content, but alas I don't think the series is popular enough now, especially after the disastrous series finale, to warrant a new adaptation of the book, and adaptations of the rest of the series. If they ever happened to come out in my lifetime, whether on the small or big screen, I'd watch them all, Earth's Children is my favourite novel series I've ever read.
    120
  3339. Nobody ever asks for a modern Ghostbusters movie, and it never should've been made in the first place. This movie will always going to be a 80s classic film, with the original casts we all know and love.
    120
  3340. “It simply isn't an adventure worth telling if there aren't any dragons” True Tolkien, but don’t forget competent writers that aren’t fresh off their liberal arts studies
    119
  3341. "That Rey Skywalker is about as popular with general audiences as a treadmill at a body positivity meeting" 😂
    119
  3342. Just let it die already, first two were kino
    119
  3343. When I heard sweet baby Inc was on spiderman 2 it made sense. That game will chopped full of THE MESSAGE
    119
  3344. At least give him a super solider serum. My biggest issue is that he’s a power downgrade. Like wtf it’s not that hard to write into the story.
    119
  3345. At my age, I've come to accept that all beloved franchises will eventually end up being destroyed by their own studios. I don't care because I know what to expect. I've had my heart broken forever with what they've done to Luke Skywalker. The only quality content I expect are new movies and series that will come out now and then (Reacher is a good example). I don't expect anything from sequels/prequels or reboots. They're just fan traps and easy cash grabs.
    119
  3346. Agree completely with this take. Also, good on you, sir. Helping out the doggos is a worthy cause indeed.
    119
  3347. I actually enjoyed this movie. No heavy handed preaching, men were strong and had actual motivations, no one had to shrink for others to grow, and like the Drinker mentioned, strong father figures. I honestly wish the timing was better for it
    118
  3348. Preparing my bottle of single malt to watch the critic 😎
    118
  3349. Friend, you are spot on with emotional attachment gained from childhood. I was a kid when the original Star Wars came out and I think that the movies take me back to my childhood. That is pretty precious when you are in your 50's. I've got grandkids and can't wait for them to be old enough to understand Star Wars.
    118
  3350. The Harkonens losing their edge is intentional. During the first film, Duke Leto kills the Harkonnen tacticians and mentats (hard to explain, but essentially living computers) with his poisoned breath. Without their seasoned tacticians who built them into such a force to be reckoned with, they end up having a steady decline in leadership which is exacerbated with the Sarrdukar leaving.
    118
  3351. I saw all the good movies when they were released in the Cinemas, like T2 / Star Wars / First Blood / Blade Runner/ Raiders of the lost Ark / The Thing, and so on.......It was a time where they just tried to make as good movies as possible......Good times. Good memories.
    118
  3352. "Reality Remains Undefeated".

  3353. The difference in a nutshell: William Shatner’s Kirk is film legend and always will be. Chris Pines Capt Kirk is a cheap throwaway character that will fade into the cinema background with every other forgettable, unremarkable, unintelligent character.
    118
  3354. Alien Romulus doesn’t offer anything of its own or new. Just callbacks to previous films. And folks might not like it but the alien isn’t scary anymore. This film had no tension.
    117
  3355. Seth Macfarlane's parody is more Star Trek, then this SJW Trek.
    117
  3356. "The walls have eyes" Picard: WRONG. Molecules have eyes and memory. Also. Star Wars: They fly now? Star Trek: They're Irish now?
    117
  3357. Oh look, another reimagining for the mysterious modern audience...surely it will work this time /s.
    117
  3358. I was just talking about this very subject over the weekend. The most overlooked thing in CGI is dirt. All too often, everything looks super clean and pristine. Trying to make things - rooms, vehicles, starships - look used and lived in takes work. Look at some of the models in the original Star Wars movies - that's some outstanding craftsmanship. They've got dirt around fuel and exhaust ports, damage from previous battles, they look like ships that have seen some action. They are simply exquisite. Don't get me started on the art of matte paintings, we'll be here all day!
    117
  3359. "After the Skywalker saga comes to an end this year" It finished in 1983. We saw a bit more in the prequels, but the Skywalker saga finished with RotJ.
    117
  3360. Couple of hours on total war would be enough.... made my day with this comment as I am actually playing total war on second monitor :P
    116
  3361. Agree 100% on your assessment of the Marvel Universe being stale and formulaic. Disagree 100% with giving Disney any of your money. Money better spent on alcohol!
    116
  3362. I love that you've incorporated Sam Neil's Event Horizon scream into your go-to soundboard.
    116
  3363. I remember a time when I used to look forward to sequels or new adaptations. Now each new film announcement makes me groan and reach for the bottle.
    116
  3364. another soulless cash grab
    115
  3365. I love how even more minor characters still have strong personalities, flaws, virtues and motivations. Akemi's manservant, Seki, genuinely tries to do his best to encourage the princess to rebel against social boundaries, encouraging her to read improper literature, escorting her when she runs away - but because of the vast array of privileges he enjoys as a man against even a royal woman (no one ever forces him to blacken his teeth), he doesn't comprehend the terrible and suffocating life Akemi is being forced into. It's a really good illustration of the gender based differences in society, without grinding your nose into it.
    115
  3366. In the Original Trilogy and even the Prequals, the force was something simple and easy to understand, you didnt need much of an explanation or an idea to get the idea of what it was, it was simple and properly used, but in the sequals they take the force to such a new level of Crazy that it looks like it would be found somwhere in the Avengers movies, this Force heal, Force teleport, and pulling the force out of someone should never have been a thing. Its so wrong.
    114
  3367. I came for GOT episode reviews, but I'm enjoying your other content 👍🏽
    114
  3368. I watch these movies every single year around Christmas. Sometimes I feel as though it’s too much, like I have others things to do. Then I start watching them, and I get sucked right back in. I feel like I did when I was a kid, jumping around on my sofa like I was actually in the battle of Helms Deep. These movies make me cry multiple times and not many things can do that. This was where my love for storytelling formed. Without this I never would have discovered my love of writing. I’ve learned so much from these characters, particularly Aragorn. I don’t want to think about my life if my dad never showed me these movies. Happy birthday Lotr trilogy. I love you.
    114
  3369. The series was just gorgeous. Dialogue, sword work, voice actors. . .all captured for animation. An awesome story. I've been recommending it to everyone.
    114
  3370. It's nice to know your not alone. This film will be a banger! So amazing that it will surpass Avatar as the biggest movie of all time!
    114
  3371. "Sink or swim, chuck her in the deep end." "...it's all a deep end."
    113
  3372. The show is violently barreling downhill getting worse every episode and next week is the finale? "nah, it'll be fine"
    113
  3373. Imagine paying a third party to destroy your product before launching it to the public. All for a sniff at that sweet ESG.
    113
  3374. Why can't they portray large scale in this show?? Why does it seem like there's 15 Elves defending the whole city? Why is the asian elf the only one riddled with arrows? If they can do that to her, why aren't they all riddled with arrows like that? Arrows make no sense in this show, the arrows themselves are plot MacGuffins. Nothing makes sense. The bleeding heart Orc who doesn't want to meat shield the battle doesn't make sense, it's like it doesn't understand who Sauron is or the implications of anything, but seems to be the most intelligent Orc, it makes no sense.
    113
  3375. I loved every minute of this movie. It positively surprised me with how the story played out, and I totally love the moment when the chef "makes a mess" and suddenly the whole movie makes a 180 turn and you start to realise what this is about. I never thought that a movie about cooking could be this impactful.
    113
  3376. After the New Year's binge Drinker is about to undertake, he may be mistaken for Nosferatu during the hangover phase.
    113
  3377. I wonder if they will keep the scene from TLOU2 where a (very) pregnant woman girlbosses the father of the child when he showed concern about her and the kid telling something along the lines that it's her body and her decision, only to get killed soon after.
    112
  3378. This movie was absolute cinema. I saw it the other night with my mom, not expecting much. But it turned out to be a surprisingly good horror film! Props to Robert 👏
    112
  3379. Acolyte: "Hey, Jedi. How's your health plan?" Jedi Order: attacks Acolyte: "APPARENTLY IT WAS GREAT!"

  3380. Since I saw this abomination, I've been saying 'Mary-Shuri' instead of 'Mary-Sue'. Whenever someone comes up and says that I'm saying it wrong I answer them 'Are you Shuri?'.
    111
  3381. I honestly think the simple recast is the best way of dealing with situations like a controversial actor. The audience will understand why they had to do it and they’ll forgive it if the new actor looks reasonably similar and does a good job and the film is otherwise good. It’s better than the convolutions that result from having to radically change the story by writing them out and/or shoehorning a new character in.
    111
  3382. The “Go Away Now!™️” is a dead giveaway to: alcohol consumption, movie quality, anger, pity, sadness, happiness, confusion, needing to have a piss, and just pure aggravation. This one sounded like you didn’t much care for the movie. And I really must agree. It seemed to have some potential, but about a quarter through, I realized I was wrong and I quit watching. Great review!! And thank you!! Again, your insight is spot on. I’ll go away now.
    111
  3383. What kept bugging me even as I watched it for the first time was how the humans would never act that way even now, let alone if we achieve interstellar travel. For a start, we wouldn't fail to recognise the inherent value of the biological resources and the mind linking of the natives, no matter how much they didn't like us. And if we had decided to just wipe out the natives, we would have done much better job of it than some half arsed, slow and low level approach in vulnerable aircraft. Think orbital bombardment instead. And we could have just tunnelled underneath the village or other places on the planet if unobtanium was so valuable and not disturbed the surface at all. With so many concepts about the place presented, it could have been a much more interesting science fiction movie as well as showing a more realistic portrayal of interstellar humans, but it only went for a disappointing 'humans bad, aliens good' premise that ruined all of the rest of the good work put into the setting. Chuck in all the rest of the faults pointed out in this vid, and it gets to an almost Prometheus level of lameness that in no way justifies what the film makers got paid to make it. The profit should have just been divided amongst the visual artists and conceptual designers. And the writers should have just been fined a hefty amount instead.
    111
  3384. Any Stanley Kubrick production is a guaranteed production hell.
    111
  3385. The Fall of The House of Usher is genuinely one of the best shows I've seen in years. Mike Flanagan has proved he's a great director and writer with this, Hill House and Midnight Mass and I can't wait to see what other projects he takes on in the future.
    111
  3386. If Rian Johnson ever sees this video, he's gonna hit the like button and think to himself "Finally, someone who respects me!"
    110
  3387. Daredevil on netflix was the best thing marvel has produced. The trailer looks great, but after the she Hulk treatment Daredevil got I have doubts about how good it will be. I'll wait and see what Drinker, Mauler and Gary have to say about it before I bother with it.
    109
  3388. I'm watching this for the 8th or 9th time with you and Mauler this time. I am happy to be watching it WITH someone, for a change. Thank you, Drinker!
    109
  3389. Well, at least it wasn't the acolyte...
    109
  3390. At least I know that I'm not the only one who despises the Star Trek reboot. When they destroyed the planet Vulcan I decided that I wasn't going to watch any more Star Trek until they rectified that mistake. I pay attention to new developments to see if that's the case not really expecting anything. Thank you for showing me that I'm not missing anything.
    109
  3391. Drinker, Leitch is a former stuntman. He also created John Wick with Chad Stahelski.
    108
  3392. It was good enough to keep me interested until Season 2, but none of the emotional beats landed at all for me. Henry Cavill carries the show almost entirely and he needs more screen time.
    108
  3393. @7:05 It's McCarthy. She thinks shouting is funny, and the higher her decibels the funnier she is.
    108
  3394. Absolutely delightful interview Drinker. It was wonderful to see an actor speak humbly and really care about his craft. You could tell he had genuine fondness for those roles because his eyes lit up. I’m not really into horror movies but I love the enthusiasm and dedication of the man that he did all of that research and preparation about the role. Fancy that, in current day. As a woman in her 30s, I can tell Russell exactly why we are enjoying older films like Master and Commander and Gladiator, it’s because there is very little masculinity on display in movies today and whoever survives the culture war cull gets emasculated like Chris Hemsworth. Funnily enough, a lot of women like watching men in movies. Who’d have thought it eh?
    108
  3395. As thoroughly interested in an adaptation as I honestly am, I do not know if I would have trusted Lifetime to take a whack at it, considering the quality of the content they usually pump out.
    108
  3396. That "Fukk off film" clip insertion has me WEAK!! I can't stop laughing. 😂😂😂
    108
  3397. how many gallons of whatever fuels Dragon fire can a single Dragon contain?
    108
  3398. This is a great series, keep it up! Love your content. Edit: after all this time it still floors me that no one making WW1984 apparently questioned the idea of WW raping that random stranger for half the movie.
    108
  3399. I knew it: the "Are we the baddies?" line (3:54) simply HAD to be in this review, it's just so fitting! Long live Mitchell and Webb ;)
    107
  3400. The fact that Drinker is getting more views reviewing it than the actual shows are should tell you all you need to know.😊
    107
  3401. Lucasfilm without Lucas is like a man without a soul. It is lifeless regardless of whether there is a heartbeat or not.
    106
  3402. I just like all the coincidences the main characters find themselves in, you can’t think of better writing, characters showing up right as things happen, it’s genius!
    106
  3403. “Undermanned”...whoa whoa, you mean “under-personed”...
    105
  3404. It is almost worrisome how happy it makes me, to hear a stranger whose opinion I value, praise a show that I love.
    105
  3405. That "WHaT tHe FucK" at 2:24 had me rolling 🤣🤣
    105
  3406. Chris Hemsworth is a viable action star. Fingers crossed he gets more of these roles
    105
  3407. I'm out 1:57 I would never play this game. They used a sand wedge to kill the guy and not a three wood. Totally unbelievable.
    105
  3408. Drinker, you brought up a good point. We only see the Androgenous 3000 beating the shit out of the T-Juan000. I guess if it's another Mary Sue character, it can be explained by "future robot" this time, but aren't the good guys supposed to be the ones shown struggling in order to build the drama? We have a trailer where it's the T-Juan struggling. It's not very exciting to see the hero just beating the villain at every turn cough-starswars-cough. They should stop hiring activists and find some writers.
    105
  3409. This is film where people act like...actual human beings, flaws and all, thats why this movie works so well, it can be incredibly gripping, satisfying, and terrifying for people who have worked in this enviroment. Stephen Graham is a absolutely incredible actor.
    104
  3410. I absolutely loved Extraction, and Extraction 2 did not disappoint!
    104
  3411. I just went and saw Strange World at the cinema. That movie is the perfect example of how cool visuals are not enough to carry a movie without a fun and compelling story to back it up. Disney pushing 'the message' didn't help either. By half way through my son and I just wanted it to be over. After watching the trailer for Avatar, I worry this will be a similar experience. There's nothing in the trailer that makes me care about seeing this movie. Like you said, it's 2022, stunning visuals aren't enough to get people into the cinema any more.
    104
  3412. Holy hell. I've never been this early to a Drinker vid being posted. Talk about an incredible way to kick off the day! Thank you for cranking out the amazing content you do sir! 🙏👏
    104
  3413. When it comes to the logic side of things for Peeles movies, the thing you should know is he's HEEEEAVILY influenced by The Twlight Zone... so if you take that into consideration, then just look at each movie as if it were its own stand alone twilight zone episode, the "logic" side can looked upon with a little relaxation... like each episode, it's not so much about the "how did we get here and where is this going" as it is about that meaty middle area where it's "ok so this is what's happening". I'm by no means justifying the lack of details. THAT been said, "Us" for me, caused WAY too many questions than gave answers for to let that slide
    103
  3414. No better way to start the week than with a Drinker video. Cheers mate.
    103
  3415. I also love how Holdo is the only one dressed in gala in the middle of an enemy siege while working in the command room of a space ship filled with stairs and steps. You can actually see the actress having to hold the dress to walk the steps so she doesn’t risk breaking some of her bones. They even went as far to put an halo on top of her purple hair. Which btw is a color normally associated with royalty, nobility, luxury, power, and ambition. You can actually see how f’ing hard RJ tried to make her whole image look like the very thing he couldn’t write her to be. Thanks for the movie tip btw!
    103
  3416. "Hi. I'm Candy." "Of course you are....."
    103
  3417. Would The Critical Drinker recommend Genesis of the Daleks?i know i would.
    102
  3418. "Why is this show spelling out things we already know?" Because they assume most of their audience is comprised of morons.
    102
  3419. Knew this would be an absolute mess, Netflix has about a 10% hit rate, with so much slop that they put out I'm not sure how they are so successful
    102
  3420. The worst part about the show is that nothing gets resolved at the end, so we can all sleep poorly knowing that there will be a second season.
    102
  3421. Throughout my life, I've picked-up various words and phrases and incorporated them into my everyday life. Thanks to The Critical Drinker, I will now start using "Nah, it'll be fine!"
    102
  3422. Hello Mr. Drinker, I found your channel only a few days ago while I’m stuck in bed with COVID feeling like shit. I so wish I found your channel sooner! Your content is amazing, the reviews are spot on and you’re humor never ceases to make me laugh! I spent hours going through videos of yours throughout the years over these past couple of days and I just wanted to say thank you! Keep doing what you’re doing and more people like me will find there way down the alcoholic rabbit hole of this channel 😁❤
    101
  3423. If she was not the star of the movie she would already have been replaced like they did with Rhodey.
    101
  3424. Each time I see a new video, it's a treat!
    100
  3425. the show was interesting for 1st season, then it was just the same thing all over again, butcher going after homelander, just to fail or change his mind in the season finale - rinse repeat 3 times and here we are. Terrible pacing with discussion about nothing are taking endless minutes, just for some big twist happens in 5 seconds, just to follow it up with another endless discussion about nothing. Charisma of Antony Starr and Carl Urban (and for one seasn Jansen Ackels) was the only thing keeping people interested.
    100
  3426. "Chrome dome" was stolen from the ninja turtles cartoon from the 80's. That's what the turtles call shredder. You know your movie sucks when you have to steal lines from the old ninja turtles cartoon.
    100
  3427. It seems pretty clear that the replicants do have actual feelings... while the hologram girlfriends don't. That scene where the giant show-room model calls him Joe was fairly gut-wrenching. Leaves us with a surprisingly definitive answer on that question. You take that scene out - or even just that word out - and it would all essentially be left up in the air. An optimistic audience member would just be left to think. "Well, sure. He has feelings. He's clearly capable of going against his programming and he's affected by things when no one is looking, just like Rachel and Roy were. And if replicants are artificial and also have feelings, then why wouldn't the same rules apply to the holograms, in this purely fictitious world?" But then her giant doppelganger says the word "Joe" and he knows it was all fake. He was mourning the loss of no one. She was always just an "it," doing what it was programmed to do. And that leaves a flat 0 number of people with any free will who ever gave a fuck about him. It's a very raw and real kick in the nuts. But I like that it wasn't just a simple(-minded) answer of "Yes! Everything that seems like it has feelings actually does have feelings."
    100
  3428. This is a damned shame. This is the second review channel I've seen pop up saying saying this movie is crap. With Pattinson being in it, the trailer and premise looking fun, and the director of Snowpiercer... I was hopeful.
    100
  3429. meh this rewrite is alright i gues- "And i would bring in the Don as her ultimate love interest." 10 out of 10!
    100
  3430. "I hate you with the dark fire of a million exploding neutron stars"
    100
  3431. I’ll be honest… When I saw a photo of the cast in costume the other day, I assumed it was a parody. Then I saw it a second time. Coming to the realization that this is in fact real and that civilization peaked twenty years ago is both freeing and depressing at the same time.
    100
  3432. Your take on Rose is WAAAAAAAAAAY more interesting than what's in the movie
    100
  3433. Just like any good alcoholic, Drinker cannot quit subjecting himself to the thing that continues to harm his body and soul. In this case, it's booze AND Disney's Star Wars shows. Someone get this poor man in a program!
    100
  3434. Just remember, they chose to make this crap as opposed to the Neil Blomkamp Alien film that would have brought back Ripley and Hicks. These people are out of touch.
    99
  3435. It’s always a good day when there’s a new production hell video!
    99
  3436. "He went to drop in to see Apollo Creed..." 😂I laughed more than I should've. "Hillbilly mechanic lady!"😂 The Drinker never disappoints.
    98
  3437. Love this series of yours, CD. You could literally make videos forever on this subject it's so bad now.
    98
  3438. I love how she says "Man your post." His post is an X-Wing that was just blown up. Then again, Holdo violates every piece of leadership training I (and my friends in the US military) have ever had. Quick question: What scene does every Star Wars Episode have except TLJ? A planning and strategy meeting for the upcoming battle.
    98
  3439. "Wait!...Don't - open - that - door!" Wesker delivered his line with Shatner-esque flair. The dialogue is so bad, it's good. Kind of like those "Engrish" translations on western stuff in Japan.
    98
  3440. I've been waiting for this rant!😂
    97
  3441. I always pictured Jack Reacher to look like Dave Bautista whenever he's described in the books, but I gotta say, Thad definitely works in the role just as well. Literally anything taller than Tom Cruise would do better in the role. The man is literally described as an absolute fucking unit of a man but what we got in the first attempt was FUCKING TOM CRUISE? Thank the lord we got a much more accurate representation.
    97
  3442. Sabine being called a “wooden plank” is accurate. They’re all staring at each other 😐🫤😑😏😒 . They’re smirk 😏 is the most annoying. And the lack of accountability for their decisions is annoying. This show was mediocre but everyone is overhyping it. My coworker got offended when I mentioned Filoni isn’t that good of a writer and my coworker got triggered. Anakin cameo and seeing him use his lightsaber fighting style is the only redeeming quality of the entire show.
    97
  3443. Drinker, we all wept. The perfect way to close the final chapter in our (True) Star Trek. The best essay video you ever done.
    97
  3444. Andor is like a diamond in an ocean of coals in a coal mine that was long abandoned
    97
  3445. Unlike most films that use the Multiverse trope, the Drinker always delivers the goods.
    96
  3446. For fans of Fassbender, myself included, it's his movie to carry & he does it almost effortlessly. To me, he's one of those actors who elevates whatever production he is in. Even something so dull as The Snowman still shows him trying to work with what he's been given. He's won awards for a reason & he's been up for Oscars. Not flawless but the man still makes an effort.
    96
  3447. bruh 10 seconds ago I didn't even know this movie existed
    96
  3448. Dude, you're commentary is awesome.
    96
  3449. A lot to appreciate about a great movie like this but one thing that always stuck out to me was the acting. The genuine fear in hardened soldiers as they start to piece together what is really going on makes this much scarier than a lot of others like it. The scene with Billy telling them they are all going to die highlights this for me, some are in denial, others are freaking out but Billy knows, because he is usually the hunter. He recognizes that they are completely outmatched. Subtle, perfectly acted and spot on dialog. They literally don't make them like they used to. The other predator movies don't compare.
    95
  3450. Xmen franchice: look I made a new movie. Me: Just look at the flowers...
    95
  3451. When the trailer for this people were drawing comparisons to the Titanfall 2 campaign. The main difference being that campaign is actually good. In that Coop and BT have enough charisma and charm to bounce off each other, and the character beats in between the action set pieces are actually fun. The ending actually manages to make you feel something.
    95
  3452. the best thing about the Luke v Vader fight in Jedi was Luke clearly using his anger an hatred to gain power and just wail on Vader but after defeating Vader realising that's what happened and refusing to let go of his Jedi training, to the point of accepting his death to the emperor because by denying the emperor he's proved his point. It's that point we know just how powerful Luke really is. Capable of using the dark side for strength but wise enough to not let it take control of him. Also that corridor scene in Rogue One... these guys know that's Vader right? I mean, shooting at him is kinda pointless and then you die... personally if I saw Vader walking down the hall I'd be running like a bitch... being dead doesn't help the cause any so... RUN! Also that's the best we've ever been shown of how powerful Vader is rather than just being told he is so that scene was brilliant.
    94
  3453. Kinda different to the 17 mickeys I've already seen this year. Weird times.
    94
  3454. I haven't heard such sarcasm since my last date when said she enjoyed my company
    94
  3455. Hey drinker i dont know if you’ll see this, but about the “looking at the alien” part, i interpreted it as a metaphor for how animals act in the animal kingdom, eye contact being one of the most crucial ways of communication between them, basically the alien representing the animals that we exploit. just like how OJ remembers how horses react to eye contact
    94
  3456. Regarding the performances, I agree with everything you've just said. I'm not a fan o Zendaya either, not by a long shot, but she is rather good in this one. However, you left out arguably the funniest, most heartwarming and rather peculiar performance of Javier Bardem as Stilgar. He seemed like the only actor out there with nothing to prove but instead had the fun of his life with a character who is rather important to Paul's development. He is somewhat comedic in his portrayal as a religious individual who actually wants to believe that Paul is indeed the Lisan Al-Gaib and is a nice contrast to the others who are all so serious and edgy.
    94
  3457. I loved it. Appreciated it simply for it's technical realism and 'accuracy'. And I couldn't find any real flaws in the technical/tactical aspects, which normally turn me off when I do see them in movies. It felt incredibly realistic to me. Pace didn't bother me at all, as it was part of his character (as practically stated early on).
    93
  3458. "Midsummer still sh1t by the way " The Drinker He speaks the language of the Gods!
    93
  3459. Bad ass compilation my dude! District 9 was so fckin intense...
    93
  3460. i am an editor in Hollywood and I can tell you that we have to go through A LOT OF revisions, because A LOT of executives need to give notes on anything...and there's usually a fight (a big fight( between them , about what gets made. But hey, as long as they pay me, I am OK. The problem is that they have hired incompetent people . On director responded to my question " How do you see this scene" with..... "I don't know, I can yet imagine it until is edited". I felt like saying " aren't you the fucking director with a vision ? "
    93
  3461. “You’ll get yours benny!” “Oh like I’ve never heard that before!”
    93
  3462. I asked for a "Production Hell" video on Drinker's Alien Romulus video. The man does not disappoint. Thank you, Drinker🙏🏽
    93
  3463. Dude I just came across your channel and I have to say that you are amazing at what you do. I really hope you continue doing this because your commentary is spot-on and you are funny as hell! Let me know if there is a way that I can give you all of my money so you can continue making these great videos!

  3464. I am geniunely surprised by how little buzz there is around this fantastic show. The story is great and is the voice acting and the animation is top notch from start to finish. This show is also a massive middle finger to modern hollywood's potrayal of "strong female character'. I binged this show in one day and I heartily recommend it.
    92
  3465. I like movies that are about making movies since Im intrigued by the whole process. This was a nice love letter to the stunt performers.
    92
  3466. They say sarcasm is the language of gods...you've just upped your divine status in that case :D P.S. I'm a simple man - I see Farscape and I automatically upvote (not that I wouldn't without it)
    92
  3467. There's something so soothing about your voice. Your cockney accent dripping with sarcasm and barely suppressed rage. And hard alcohol. Simply excellent.
    92
  3468. This is the underdog we need right now; no political issues, no Strong Female Characters, just a good adventure flims that you don't have to think too hard about and enjoy. Great video drinker. 🎉
    92
  3469. As a child of the 80's, I miss and appreciate this type of fare.
    91
  3470. Very good take. We should dial down the extremes and care for some nuance once in a while, just like you said: Screaming 'woke' at everything is dumb, race/gender swapping everything is dumb too. It's very heartening to have this critical but not super-partisan perspective repped by the Drinker. Much appreciated!
    91
  3471. i actually enjoyed this series. The message was prevalent, but not the focus, the story was fun.
    91
  3472. thanks for being a bright spot on the internet this year buddy,
    91
  3473. “Teleports to a magical get out of jail free card” Legend.
    91
  3474. CMon man, you know good and well a bottle of Jack is FAR more valuable than this movie.
    91
  3475. Critical Drinker, your reviews are hilarious. I don't even watch Game of Thrones, I've watched season one and checked out. But your reviews are a must see, i feel excitement when I see you've put out a new one, as the shows fans are excited when new episode is out. This speaks a bunch about quality of your writing, I'd say.
    91
  3476. Loving the call out for Colonel Samantha Carter! Amanda Tapping is one of my personal heroes ❤️ Her character of Helen Magnus in Sanctuary also deserves recognition in this context
    91
  3477. Put Hotpie on the Iron Throne .
    91
  3478. That was one of the most VENOMOUS "Go away now" I ever heard him say 😮
    90
  3479. Yes! After Disparu’s entertaining as hell video on the same topic, we’ve all been eager for Drinker’s take here. Love it.
    90
  3480. “Even the literal ground is excited about this movie.” I say we’re all excited about this movie...minus Paul Feig
    90
  3481. "That...that's a thing that's in this film." I lost it when I heard that line.
    90
  3482. Could not agree more! Jon and the NK had massive moments with one another! This episode for me was a massive let down on so many levels. White Walkers seem like and absolute waste of time in the show now.
    89
  3483. I personally thought Andor was an amazing divergence from Disney's main formula. A small, self-contained story that had decent, if not great characters, a good story pace, and actor's with actual talent. I think it's a diamond within the Star Wars shitpile.
    89
  3484. The drinker makes a lot of good points here. First off, this movie is an absolute action/sci-fi classic. And it completely holds up well today. Secondly, the director John McTiernan was definitely in his prime in the 80's and early 90's with this film, Die Hard and The Hunt for Red October. Getting rid of Van Damme and bringing in Stan Winston to revamp the Predator was BIG. If you youngsters haven't seen this, you should. It is a LOT of fun.
    89
  3485. I certainly hope not, I need more comedy in my life.
    88
  3486. Captain America especially will be a huge loss for Disney. Unless the realize that there is no such thing as 'the modern audience' they will never turn a profit at the cinema and nothing that comes out this year (other than maybe Dare Devil) will have learnt that lesson. At this point I'm just curious what will do worse for Disney. Marvel projects, Star Wars or Snow White.
    88
  3487. My husband and I loved this show; spot on analysis on Reacher's personality and his knowledge of human nature. One of my favorite scenes is when, after several episodes, he (and we the audience) think we know all there is to know about Finley when during a stakeout, as he's playing with his wedding ring, Reacher sarcastically tells him that it's time to get over his divorce. That's when Finley tells him his isn't divorced, his wife died and the reason he left Boston to move south was that he missed her so damn much, it was too painful to live where every street, every building, hell even the weather, reminded him of her. It shuts Reacher right up and he doesn't treat it like it's nothing. It's a great scene and one that really makes Finley's character make sense, why he's so stubborn and determined to do the right thing.
    88
  3488. The fact he used Ron Perlman in that specific moment..... This man is a genius
    87
  3489. Khan's full name is Khan Noonien Singh. He was of Indian decent.Not that it made sense to cast a Mexican actor as an Indian man, but at least he could almost pass as a light skinned Indian guy, unlike Benedict Cumberbatch, who is the whitest person in this film. It does not make sense for his backstory, not that they gave a fuck about any other aspect of his backstory anyway.
    87
  3490. This is genuinely offensive to all who had grandfathers who fought in WWII.
    87
  3491. I wanna laugh, but honestly I’d be much happier if Star Wars was just good again. Not even great mind you, just good.
    87
  3492. Wow, so many views for Captain Marvel but nary a few for this one. The sound sucks on this, but you already know that. Your reviews of Panther and Marvel, which you didn't like really bring out your gold. It will be interesting to see what your next video is like since you unleashed a LOT of views with that Marvel review. Since you do retro reviews here are some ideas. Legend (Tome Cruise) (I hope you hate it for the funny review, though I love the movie). Labyrinth, Conan (the Arnold movie), Lord of the Rings Animated verses live action. And of course, Superman. Now If you don't like Superman, then I will be sad, but Superman 3 or 4 go for the jugular! Best of luck going forward.
    86
  3493. Knew it was shite. Thanks, Drinker, I guess you really “warned a brother” 😏
    86
  3494. "This video will traumatise you" Continues watching it.
    86
  3495. You are right. When I finished the movie. I remember saying I enjoyed it, but was a bit confused at the plot. Nurffed characters. It’s starting to feel like an actual comic book. Confusing, random, and just built to entertain and not necessarily follow its own rules. I feel like up until endgame they had a story to tell and used movies. Now they need movies and have to come up with a story. It comes up with a different vibe. Overall it’s entertaining. Now I just need to turn off my brain before I start the movie. Which kinda sucks. But it is what it is.
    86
  3496. All he had to say is “If you were trusted and capable they wouldn’t have spent resources to call me back.”
    86
  3497. Remember when Rambo chose 'not to' leave town, turned round and raised hell. Drinker, you've just gave us those chills. Remember a good supply of body bags for those 'Modern Audiences'. Nothing is over! Nothing!
    85
  3498. The eye contact thing is explained by OJ to work the same way as with predators, it's a sign of challenge and agression. And also JJ turning into that demonic kite thing at the end may also be a resource it has for intimidation, like a peacock opening it's tail feathers or a pufferfish inflating itself.
    85
  3499. My biggest gripe with the movie was that they missed so many opportunities to imbue the story with emotion. The ending had absolutely no emotional resonance whatsoever. They didn't spend enough of the story building up the characters' involvement with the events, and what things meant to them. Imagine, for example, that instead of Shang-Chi and his sister being opposed to their father, they learn that their father found a way to bring their mother back and join him, only to realize that they're on the wrong path, and have to pay a cost for this lesson. And instead of just beating up an old man, they have to try to save him from self-destruction, only to have him realize at the last moment that they were right, and he sacrifices himself so they have a chance to beat the creature he's unleashed. If we could empathize with his desperate attempt to get his wife and the mother of his children back, instead of rolling our eyes at him for being fucking stupid... Anyway, hugely disappointed in this movie. It could have been so much more.
    85
  3500. Premieres during my lunch break. Perfect timing man
    85
  3501. Somehow Palpatines always return...
    85
  3502. I liked the movie. Granted, I probably gave it extra points for political incorrecitude.
    85
  3503. Well this one... you hit right on the head. You are the first person so far that has mentioned her lack of expression. I think she did it once for the entire show run, otherwise, the same droopy looking face. She looks mad that she's tired. it's a shame, because the deaf aspect could have been used so much better, basically a counterpart to Daredevil. And the sign language was the least of their worries. It is very possible to emote and put expression into your ASL, unfortunately the actress sucks. They hired a deaf person, instead of an actor who is deaf. I'm not saying she has to be Marlee Matlin, but damn, someone out there who is deaf can act and is athletic enough to pull of stunts. It just sucked.
    85
  3504. As someone who has only seen your videos on Marvel movies, it’s quite refreshing to see a review like this one.
    85
  3505. What a wonderful video to watch first thing in the morning. Danke, Drinker
    85
  3506. Excellent video. I want to see their internal communications!
    85
  3507. "Morally confused" That sums up pretty much everything dished out by Hollywood these days
    84
  3508. I’m more dumbfounded how they didn’t walk everything back that happened, with some plot device by the end. Cause that means that this actually happened in the dceu. But Batman acts like she’s been off the grid
    84
  3509. I personally thought it was just mindless fun, a popcorn movie nothing to put too much thought into just enjoyed the action. I was just happy they weren't trying to push "The Message!"
    84
  3510. Good point. Should of had Jon, or even Sam beat the NK. And for some reason I picture Sam as the better choice to have shouted the dracolich down - summoning up his bravery after being useless the whole episode.
    84
  3511. They need a Jon Bernthal Punisher movie.
    84
  3512. Yo Drinker, I recently watched your Q&A video and I found out you also live in Edinburgh! If I see you somewhere I'm taking you for a pint :) Keep up a good job!
    84
  3513. "...less progress than a WW1 infantry assault." Great line. 😅
    84
  3514. Remember DS9? It had two strong women protagonists that nevertheless were fully developed characters that had flaws and vulnerabilities. Remember VOY? Had three of those.
    83
  3515. Matthew Modine's Full Metal Jacket Diary book offers great insight into the making of this masterpiece. It has a cool metal cover too!
    83
  3516. Consider it “skipped”. Thank you, Drinker! You have saved the day once again.
    83
  3517. Captain America- Brave New Flop
    83
  3518. Haha essentially a superhero movie; everyone is kick ass and basically invincible....still fast, fun and ticks all the right caveman boxes. Another great review. Thanks.
    83
  3519. Lol this is epic, glad you put Kill Bill in there btw!
    83
  3520. THANK. YOU. I sadly feel like this movie is being misunderstood and underrated. All the things you point out are the reasons I really like it. Seen it twice now and enjoyed it even more the second time. The one thing you could have mentioned is that the movie is actually pretty funny. There's a tongue in cheek nature to the dark comedy it presents. Him repeating his mantra to himself throughout the movie and having it make less sense. Him killing the lawyer when he thought he'd stay alive another 5 min or so. And little one liners in his narration. Really great stuff.
    83
  3521. Peck is actually the most logical, reasonable character, despite being set up as the main antagonist. He was quite right that Phoebe was too young to be fighting ghosts, and her parents didn't seem to be phased by potentially putting their teenage daughter in danger.
    83
  3522. I've said it before but Snyder's biggest problem other than writing his own dialogue and being given too much creative control, is that he always goes with what looks cool, but his idea of cool hasn't been relevant for almost 2 decades at this point.
    82
  3523. I also have to apologize. I apologize that you don't have more subscribers. It's a crime really. If I could subscribe twice I would.
    82
  3524. "Naaah it'll be foine." Was waiting for that line so damn much.
    82
  3525. "2019, the year my YouTube channel started to profit enough to fuel me with Jack Daniels bottles for the whole 2020" - Critical Drinker.
    82
  3526. 8:18 Oh, wow. I didn’t notice that awful burning person staggering out of the ship. She doesn’t look like she was just in the center of a ship-obliterating explosion. She looks like she was just going about her day when suddenly everything caught fire for no reason, like “Doo-dee-doo, just walkin’ around and-WHY IS EVERYTHING FIRE NOW?!”
    81
  3527. The destruction of Tolkien's legacy if the thing that bothers me the most in all of this. Great review Drinker.
    81
  3528. Thank you for this. I'm a Independent, it aggravates me that people actually care what a paid liar says
    81
  3529. Drinker already had some of the best reaction clips in the business but the screaming Nic Cage clip tops them all. I love it every time it pops up and it's almost always perfectly timed.
    81
  3530. Finn's supposed to be a highly trained warrior. He's been doing it for a decade or so? Should he be like Kurt Russell's character "Todd 3465" in Soldier? Or at least like Teal'c from Stargate SG-1?
    81
  3531. I’ll never understand why Sony thinks we want movies about Spider-Man’s most least interesting side characters. Like we were supposed to get a movie about el muerto, a character that was in 2 Spider-Man issues 20 years ago and a rumored aunt may spy movie. We could be getting projects like a Spider-Man 2099 film, superior Spider-Man film, scarlet spider film, Silk film, a film about one of the spider women, iron patriot film, a showdown between Otto Octavius and Norman Osborn, ends of earth Spider-Man film, a black cat and vulture heist film, a May Parker film, a carnage film, an agent venom film, a film about a serious Venom instead of that obnoxious dipshit in the last 2 venom movies, a Kraven or Morlun film hunting down spider people, and a sinister six film with the most popular Spider-Man villains instead of morbius, but nope, we apparently need solo films about madame web, that blind old woman that never fights in the comics and is just a guide, el muerto, a background wrestler that hasn’t made an appearance since 2005, and morbius, that c list vampire that ppl only know of because of Spider-Man and Blade.
    81
  3532. Honestly, Skeleton Crew is probably alright, but I haven't been that involved with Star Wars for a while unless EU material, fan edits, or memorable scenes I feel like rewatching. Red Dead Redemption and other fandoms have my current attention. I just can't bring myself to care no more.
    80
  3533. Thank you Drinker, I'm almost wishing for another year of cinematic dross just so we can hear more of your alcohol enhanced vitriol. Keep up the good work and enjoy your hogmanay.
    80
  3534. Can I buy a “drink-saber”?!?!
    80
  3535. Hahahaaa! The beginning with Grogu - priceless. Cheers!
    79
  3536. My main problem with Filoni is that he just won't let go of his characters. Ahsoka could have had a very meaningful death at the hands of Vader in Rebels. But no, she just lingers on. Filoni only did well when everything he came up with had to be approved by Lucas.
    79
  3537. We’ll be adopting 1 or 2 greyhounds when we get settled down in the UK next year. Thanks for introducing us to them. Really wouldn’t have known they were such chilled out dogs if you hadn’t mentioned it
    79
  3538. That opening had me dying LOL All hail the drinker
    79
  3539. When Max is like “I gotta find my son” after he renounces his wish, he teleports from the satellite station all the way to the city. What the hell?
    79
  3540. Good critiques you alchy especially the one about Peter realizing Beck is a fraud step by step would be much better structure .. mine would be - no trademark Spider-man quips - why do the people keep helping Beck after he threatens their lives - why doesn’t peter get more in depth on the science/ details of the dimension travel - peter is supposed to be smart but he does some dumb ass shit like giving Edith to someone he met 3 days ago
    79
  3541. After watching the Drinker’s review, I decided to give this series a go. I’m not a huge fan of cartoons, but after watching 3 episodes, I’m sold. Thanks for the recommendation.
    79
  3542. I think I've commented before, but the replayability is non existent in the remake. In the original Nemesis was far more deadly, the rewards for beating him were awesome, the quick time events make you want to play it over and over and there was much more content. The remake turned Nemesis into a knock off Mr. X with a Hot Topic trench coat on with that tasteless caution tape on it. Nemesis cant even follow you like in the original. Also, that stupid a** flamethrower nerfed him and that canine transformation. Original gets a 9. Remake gets a 3.
    79
  3543. One of the things I loved about Arcane is the way they portrayed Vi and Jinx as believable children. I am so sick of Western/American media portraying children as smug, permanently sarcastic tiny adults who can do no wrong. Children sometimes don't understand what the consequences of their actions will be and, when confronted with consequences much worse than they expected, will freak out and cry and panic. The voice actors also deserve a lot of credit for their performances. Watching child Vi and Jinx in their magic-filled fantasy setting felt much more realistic and relatable than a lot of kids portrayed in modern media.
    78
  3544. You're like the other critics I follow except with a cooler accent ;-)
    78
  3545. I consider this show to be one of the few shows I call perfect. It has incredible storytelling, high stakes thrills, political intrigue that beats even that of Game of Thrones, zombies, and it makes the audience feel that they could be immersed in the fantastical world of Joseon Era Korea. To see great characters like Crown Prince Yi Chang, Doctor Seo-bi, the loyal bodyguard Moo-Young, and the corrupt First Minister Cho Hak-Ju brought onto my screen reminds me of how Korea still believes in the magic of cinema and good storytelling. And to know that Korean acting legend Ryu Seung-ryong is in the show along with some other great talents gives me hope that Korea will still be making great projects for years to come.
    78
  3546. Dang man. This recap put the lump in my throat again.
    78
  3547. I would've actually liked a redemption arc with Bucky as main character after he is being handed the Shield by Cap himself. He would refuse it at first, thinking he is not worthy. Then, in the back of his head, he thinks that the world needs a Captain America and sets off to find whoever can fit that role. In his travels he becomes stronger and manages (maybe with help from Wakandian scientists found who knows where) to overcome his conditioning and actually discovers and accepts Rogers' heritage inside him, fighting some big bad villain. That would have been a hell of a character arc and in the end we would have had a much more fitting heir.
    78
  3548. I would like to institute a "Reverse Bechdal Test." This will be a test for films that don't have any woke ideologies shoved into them that have nothing to do with the plot.
    78
  3549. I honestly can't wait.... To hear Drinker tear this movie to shreds
    78
  3550. 90 woke, out of work writers disliked this video...
    77
  3551. If they find a way to capture the feel of 28 Days then this will be an absolute banger!
    77
  3552. I was so stoked when I first heard about Marvel's idea of a multiverse. Now, if I never see another superhero movie, it'll be way too soon.
    77
  3553. No Downfall... Es bleiben im Raum: Keitel, Jodl, Krebs und Drinker....
    77
  3554. It's just like you said...if they just shut their trap and let it blow over NONE of this would have happened. But their frail egos couldn't let it go and turned it into a Streisand Effect.
    77
  3555. Imagine the amazing things we would have if the Drinker and his Open Bar mates would actually be in charge of movie production
    77
  3556. While driving to get ice cream, I still sing the lyrics to Spanish Ladies to the consternation of my young nieces and nephews.
    76
  3557. I went in with low expectations and it was way better than expected - probably the best since the original
    76
  3558. i haven't finished the season yet but it seems that Henry Cavill carries it for me, when he did his first "Hrm" i was happy with him being casted
    76
  3559. I actually enjoy this movie a lot. It’s such a badass practical production design and can’t believe they did everything for real.
    76
  3560. "Independence Day: Resurgence - May Be The Dumbest Movie Ever Made" I agree, but I also see your wager, and raise you the entire "Twilight" series...
    75
  3561. Emily Blunt is one of my FAV actress. Her role in Scicario and Edge of Tomorrow and then her "kinda debut" The Devil Wears Prada, she just BRINGS so much that you have to belive her.
    75
  3562. It’s funny how often the ideas of the last Jedi comes up in my thoughts when I’m taking a shit. I never realized until now. Thanks Rian!
    75
  3563. I always liked the gun shop owner in RE2. Shop Owner: "Freeze! Who are you? What are you doing here?" Leon: "Don't shoot! I'm a human!" Gun shop owner: Ohhh. Sorry about that. I thought you were one of them." Really? You thought Leon was a zombie, but still asked who he was and what he was doing? Yeah.....
    75
  3564. Where is Yul Brynner when you need him !!!
    75
  3565. God, I hope this is a 20 parts video series...
    75
  3566. I was hoping to hear the Drinker's take on this little bundle of satisfcation; raise a glass!
    74
  3567. No dislikes the way it should be. The ruby rod quip had me dying😅
    74
  3568. This wasn't just a great review of Creed. It was a pretty remarkable review of The Force Awakens too.
    74
  3569. Last time i was this early, Drinker was telling me to have a nice day at the end of his videos.
    74
  3570. “You don’t have to know anything about anything!” …I mean that’s more than what the Marvels can say, I’ll give it that.
    74
  3571. Seeing Lara with a bow and arrow reminds me of Mauler's Why the fu- do you use spears from his Black panther video. Its also stupid considering in the old games and the Angelina movies she was freaking dual wielding pistols.
    74
  3572. It has Glen Powell. He carries this movie all by himself like a goddamned boss. Also, it seemingly had the new Superman in there. Only realized after watching it.
    73
  3573. "BROKEN AND DEFEATED BY THE LOST OF HIS MILK" LMAO!!!
    73
  3574. THANK YOU! Seeing people gush over how great they thought the trailer was had me feeling like Mugatu screaming “I FELL LIKE I’M TAKING CRAZY PILLS!”
    73
  3575. Never underestimate Disney’s Star Wars ability to screw things up, it’s their own speciality after all.
    72
  3576. I was a backer and already saw the pre-screening. It is definitely worth a watch! And if you’re a fan of the novels, you don’t want to miss it!
    72
  3577. Lucasfilm needs a giant purge of personal before they can consistently produce anything of quality. She is but the 1% of the problem, its the yes-man near her, it's the terrible management, it's the terrible marketing teams and it's of course the terrible writers.
    72
  3578. You have not sold this film at all to me! HeelsVsBabyface
    72
  3579. Holy crap, I've never heard you so excited Drinker. I think I'll actually go to the theater for a movie for the first time in several years
    72
  3580. Into Darkness was an abject failure on every level. Your review, however, was BRILLIANT!
    72
  3581. This trailer keeps popping up every time I go to the movies. And every time I see it, I hear the Drinker's voice in my head, warning the masses...
    71
  3582. played us like a damn fiddle! Thank you for your work from Portugal
    71
  3583. When will they understand that mediocre nostalgia cash grabs won't revitalize the industry
    71
  3584. In "current year" I'll take a relatively good film over most of the stuff coming out of Hollywood...
    71
  3585. All the best to you, and everyone who is subscribed to this channel. Here’s to a good 2021. 🍻
    71
  3586. It's simple. Maryrey Sue is not only the best of the good guys, but she can also be the best of the bad guys too ... if she wants to be ... she can be anything she wants to be.
    71
  3587. I remember going to see this movie when it came out and not remembering anything about it 10 minites after walking out. What I did remember was the flashback cinema trailer. It was Star Trek II The Wrath of Khan. I had a much better time with the trailer and that screening than I did with this turd.
    71
  3588. I thoroughly enjoy this channel after stumbling upon it after Episode 3 of GoT. To be honest, the way in which the people I know gush over the current state of movies, games and television - I felt alone in my speculation of the downward trend we've been on in terms of quality and creativeness. Any attempt to articulate this was met with staunch resistance from those I would discuss it with, too quick to label me cynical or a know-it-all; when really all I want is for some acknowledgement that we should be asking for better than what we're getting. I think we're too quick to label things on one end of the spectrum or the other, with no middle-ground where we can still appreciate something while remaining critical if the situation warrants it. I bring it back to the experiences I've had my entire life with SNES -> PS1 era RPGs, where working with similar hardware limitations meant that a story was forced to stand out by its merits via its characters, grand plot and subtle mannerisms along the way. Today, despite the medium we prefer, we get our hands held and it's made sure the point is spoonfed to us rather than allowing us to come to a conclusion on our own terms. I don't play games or watch movies for a linear simulation, I want an experience - my own experience... a mentality I feel has been lost in translation over the years.
    71
  3589. Not to mention the movie looks pathetic..in my country no one knows this sjw agenda and yet no one is interested in the movie...lile zero interest..tge primary demography here is young males ..and we cannot relate to this expressionless perpetually bored looking zero sex appeal actor..
    70
  3590. Excellent. Thank you for this one. I'd seen this appear on Netflix, but after the horrifying words "modern reinterpretation..." appeared in the synopsis, ran away screaming in abject terror. I'll take a look now 👍
    70
  3591. The best drunken content creator on this platform back with another banger of a video 💯🍻
    70
  3592. I do appreciate their attempt at giving Orm a redemption arc, even if the execution of it was a bit weak.
    70
  3593. Carnage: "You will die right now!" Venom: "He is too strong." Eddie: "Venom, this really is our last dance." Truly the moment of all time.
    70
  3594. This is the first episode of TDR in which the show being recommended is one I haven't seen. But given the fact that all past vidoes recommended shows that I myself would have unreservedly done the same with (and have on many occasions), you can bet your ass I'll be watching The Exspanse asap.
    70
  3595. The 2000s movies were a lot of fun that didn't take themselves seriously. I'll give this one a pass.
    69
  3596. Not gonna lie the bit that got me was when Claire released the T-Rex and, bearing in mind in the first film the T-Rex kept up with a jeep, outran it. In HEELS for goodness sake.
    69
  3597. That thumb-sucking goodbye between the two characters simply had to be THE lamest, cringiest stupidiest idea in the history of stupid ideas since the dawn of time. Seriously. Can't think of anything lamer. Nobody on the set said, "This comes close to looking like an insulting gesture" either?
    68
  3598. Two videos so soon? You spoil us drinker! Keep up the awesome work
    68
  3599. Miles Dyson is and awesome character, with more development and arc then i've seen in a lot of films combined! He goes from certainty he's doing good work, content and happy with life, gets shown he might be on the wrong side and puts his ego aside to destroy his own work, ultimately giving his life not only to see that destruction through but also to save innocent people from that very act! All in a handful of scenes and believable for every second. God i miss movies like that!
    68
  3600. Honestly, I love how family-oriented this iteration of the characters are. It was a crucial aspect their predecessors were missing.
    68
  3601. Now I want to see "Battle of the Bakers: Hotpie Rises".
    68
  3602. Love how the laughs went full circle to make the point
    68
  3603. One Life is very underrated. It's a well-acted, competently shot film that tells an interesting and profoundly human real-life story
    68
  3604. This is why I watched Sonic 3 than Mufasa.
    68
  3605. Unlike most other trailers, it doesn't spoil the entire movie. A lot of jump cuts to action in different locations featuring a lot of different people but aside from the knife fight you don't know who is fighting who. Looks exciting.
    68
  3606. I subscribed to your channel very early on and I knew this channel would be huge. It's the only time I've ever predicted the success of a channel. Thanks for the years of content and shining a spotlight on the problems with modern day media. Keep up the great work!
    68
  3607. Ralph Fiennes in a Kingsman movie was such a blessing to watch. He was the perfect actor to lead this movie's cast
    67
  3608. I'm glad I didn't get into political views before watching the movie. Even with that, I hated it, she is always so smug and overpowered. The biggest disappointment was when she easily destroys Thanos' war-ship, how is that a reasonable character? Female version of superman? I'd hate if superman did that either. But looking at her own movie, what was an actual threat to her? Ai chip that held her powers off.. how lame is that..?
    67
  3609. Jurassic Park is one of my favorite movie franchises of all time, and it consist of just the original trilogy. Anything after that is just a fever dream that doesn't count.
    67
  3610. Watched it last night, the prison scenes are unreal and had me genuinely anxious and shitting it at times! Also, it blew the first movie away in my humble opinion.
    67
  3611. Fantastic film! Pertwee nailed the veteran sergeant so well, and you can easily see the greatness waiting in store from McKidd and Cunningham. Top-notch gore/effects and action. Witherspoon's Last Stand is one for the ages.
    67
  3612. I can think of 15 million reasons why GM1 proves you don’t need a bloated budget to make a blockbuster
    66
  3613. Thank you for filling my morning coffee with a bit of rational thinking in this muddled world. Cheers to you man.
    66
  3614. MauLer: "How long have you got?" Drinker's Chat: "Blimey! Not that long!" Bit of rewriting the entire film here. But it goes to show, if you build up the story from a proper foundation you end up with a properly motivated villain, more opportunities for cooperation between the heroes, each player gets their chance to shine and a much more cohesive story as a result. It makes you wonder how they keep getting this stuff so wrong. Do they just see "female character" and freak out? Just let their brains go to mush and forget everything they ever knew about making stories? Forget the "female" part, just focus on the "character" bit. I mean, that's free advice. Maybe don't throw millions of $'s down and waste a franchise to find that out next time. [Cue great long list of franchises where they did it again... and again... and again...]
    66
  3615. Damn man that was a very melancholy "go away now" at the end, the extended silence preceding it as well...kind of sounded like genuine exasperation instead of just being a trademark outro. I felt that, and feel that every day now.
    66
  3616. Starting to scare me a little how much i am thinking like you these days. As soon as i saw the trailer all your commentary you just posted now ran through my head and i knew a drinker video was on the way...followed up with where that glass of toilet cleaner i was drinking.
    66
  3617. I've been searching high and low for more than a year now, watching every TLJ apologist video I could find, trying desperately to find someone to educate me on what I could not understand on my own. Trying here and there, again and again, to discover the one who could relieve me of the literal anguish I felt after having seen The Last Jedi. Oh, thank fuck - alas... that day has come! Thank you sir, you've done it. By Leia's buns, you've done what none had done - you have changed my mind. I'm so grateful you don't even know. 🙇 No more am I an iPhone bricked - so snip my ear, I've just been fixed! 😆 hallefuckinluja
    66
  3618. 5:47 perfectly said Drinker. The Star Wars brand was healthier when Mando S1 was released. Mando S1 was....decent....and many of us lost our minds with excitement. I had the whole family gathered around the TV to stream every episode on release day. Fast forward to today. Skeleton Crew is....decent....and I, and many others it seems, can't be arsed to bother to watch it. I tried to get my 12 year old on board, and he decided to play Fortnite or Minecraft instead. Nobody gives a damn about Star Wars at this point. That said, I am cautiously optimistic about Andor S2. Hoping for more of the magic we saw in S1 there.
    66
  3619. What’s worse? A dumb battle set at night that you’re able to see or a dumb battle set at night that you can’t see?
    66
  3620. One of the best on youtube today, keep it up man.Love your content, greets from Poland.🍻
    66
  3621. I could watch both of them on repeat for days. Haven't been this excited about a movie in a long time
    66
  3622. They basically wrote Kirk to be like Lightning McQueen from Pixar's "Cars". A cocky narcissist who learns in the movie that making friends and helping others is more important than winning. Except they didn't do that and just had Spock punch a guy for 10 seconds straight instead.
    65
  3623. I am so glad this video has been made. I was so scared that this movie would stink, but the fact that it didn’t makes me so happy.
    65
  3624. I’ve followed the Drinker for several years now and THIS is his BEST work. Well done Sir!
    65
  3625. Honestly it's impressive how much damage RTD has done to returning viewers hopes with such small choices, 10th's return could have had such a stronger response from audiences with these three changes: "We had a problem with Davros being in a wheelchair" to "We thought it would be fun to see a younger Davros" "Did you just assume Meep's pronouns" > Delete "Something a male presenting time-lord would never understand" > Delete, why was it ever there
    65
  3626. 0:36 Imagining the Star Wars IP being sentient and saying this makes me sad. As if it knows all that has come before and only wishes to to be put to rest.
    65
  3627. I enjoyed the game for the first time, it felt like some a Hollywood blockbuster movie, full of explosions and tense moments.
    64
  3628. Ironic that you used the theme song of the worst marksmen in TV and movie history to cap a video packed with awesome gun action.
    64
  3629. I was not going to see this one - but now I can't wait to take the whole family to the actual theater for the first time since 2019!
    64
  3630. What's hard to understand is how show after show after is suffering the same fate--- Henry Cavill was the reason I watched and it was clear his role was being diminished over time in a kind of bait and switch. Have a successful show with male lead character? Can't have that. Better to ruin the IP than allow such a travesty of social justice. Mando suffered the same fate and Obi-Wan was bait and switch from the get go-- I can't even remember who the show was supposed to be about or why Leia had any part of it. It's also interesting Netflix, Disney, Amazon, perhaps Apple (don't really watch) are all making the same error. I'm more than happy to let you do the watching going forward. Henry made the right call. Clearly, a man of character willing to walk away from a paycheck rather than sacrifice his integrity. Bravo.
    64
  3631. You’re late to the party, Drinker….but welcome!
    63
  3632. what perfect timing, I'm watching a drinker video WHILE drunk! :
    63
  3633. "I guess fire in the acolyte doesn't need oxygen live in other shows because it no longer has the patriarchy holding it back" HAHAHAHA Best line ever!!! :D:D:D
    63
  3634. The drinker is like a cup of coffee on a cold morning. Thanks man, you are a legend
    62
  3635. they shouldve known to not mess with the Tolkien Nerds. the backlash when this comes out will be beyond reckoning
    62
  3636. I must have been too sober the first time I watched this video. Second time around I gained so much knowledge and undestanting. You are great man.
    62
  3637. Now I am waiting for new GoT episodes only to watch your rewievs :D
    62
  3638. Hearing Drinker legitimately laugh his way through a review is music for the soul
    62
  3639. I'm a HUGE Resident Evil fan; however, I will NEVER play any game which thinks, "Oh, hey! You're trying to pull of head-shots? Well, you can't just aim and shoot really quick...you NEED to aim at the head for two or three seconds before you shoot so the reticle gets smaller so you can pull off a successful head-shot...you know...just like in REAL life." Like in Resident Evil 4: I would run up to an enemy; aim AND shoot in less than 1/4 of a second; and the enemy is shot in the head. NICE!!! However, in Resident Evil 2 Remake and RE3 Remake: you have to run up to an enemy; aim; keep aiming; keep aiming; keep aiming; aaaaaaaand...NOW you can shoot. Then, the bullets barely do any damage. WHY?!?!
    62
  3640. “Like dating a hot girl only to find out she’s a vegan activist” 🤣😂🤣👍
    61
  3641. Went with no expectations, as TCD rightly suggests, and found this movie to be excellent, upper echelon of modern action cinema if you ask me, totally recommended. And yes, does require you to pay attention to detail as the expected adult target audience.
    61
  3642. Honestly my favorite character is actually the highborn noble who starts out as a cowardly elite who cares only about his own comfort, but by the end of the show, ends up growing a spine thanks to the positive influence of both a dogged female nurse as well as witnessing firsthand the nobility of the illegitimate prince. It goes to show that even the most irredeemable people, should the goodness in them be allowed to grow, can become paragons all of their own choosing. At first I couldn’t stand his butt, but as he continued to change for the better, I was cheering on his character every time he showed up on screen.
    61
  3643. Best thing about STD?....Drinker's commentary.
    61
  3644. When you ignore this, there's a lot of potential for Davros pre-disfigurement. I was really interested that they depicted that. Up until I realised the reasons for them doing it, and worse yet, this actually goes against pre-established canon of Davros actually being disfigured as he was disfigured before even creating the Dalek casing. While it hasn't retconned Davros being chair bound entirely, they did retcon the incident. I don't think anybody would be watching Children in Need and be upset about the depiction of an evil person in a life support chair, Russell.
    61
  3645. At this point, they aren't even failing to make good stuff (and therefore money), they are REFUSING.
    61
  3646. As a long time viewer of your channels and having rescued a number of sighthounds myself, I'd like to thank you on behalf of these wonderful animals for your generous support of a good cause. My wonderful greyhound Gandalf (geddit?) passed away last year and I miss him terribly. I am a member of Sighthound Rescue here in South Africa, who do amazing work. Thankfully greyhound racing is banned here but there are still illegal tracks and greys are being bred just for hunting, both practises are very cruel. Thank you again.
    60
  3647. Ghostbusters is a prime example of a totally preposterous premise played absolutely "straight" by every member of the cast who all "got it". That's. Why. It. Was. Fun.
    60
  3648. Finally our Drinker watched this MASTERPIECE! For me Kingdom is the best zombie show. Ever since I had watched this show in 2019 when it came, I became its huge fan. I don't know why Netflix isn't bringing its Season 3 but still I have hope someday they will bring its Season 3.
    60
  3649. Almost forgot to check the date…
    60
  3650. I have fond memories ofI watching these as a kid while sitting on a rug in front of my Grans fireplace. I rewatch Sharpe every couple of years.
    60
  3651. I love how Cora’s second or third round after freeing herself fired 30 degrees downward from the direction her hand gun is actually pointed. Slow motion really helped to hide it too.
    60
  3652. I'm not usually predisposed towards the sort of grandiose conspiracy theories that typically festoon the internet but if it were subsequently rumoured that the BBC had tasked Chibbers with deliberately killing Doctor Who to justify its cancellation (via inevitably plummeting ratings), I'd believe it frankly. For I have no logical, rational explanation as to why he/they would embark on what undeniably is a systematic, ruinous policy of alienating longtime, actual fans and casual viewers alike with such extreme niche nonsense. Indeed, his egregious two series feel like a consistent and needlessly vitriolic 'f^ck you' to everyone who doesn't consider it necessary to proffer their preferred f^cking pronouns on social media. Incredible. Just incredible.
    60
  3653. I'd take THE BEES over this any day
    60
  3654. You changed my mind, drinker... I was absolutely about to avoid this one so that I wouldn't have to suffer through another thrashing of a cherished IP. But thanks to hearing this from you, you've actually made me excited to go see this one this weekend!!
    60
  3655. Beyond the adventure, the commitment, the thrill... beyond even the friendship and the quest for common ground and common sense... There was in Star Trek a true image of human dignity... and now, despite the narcissic and artificial loss of that core feeling, that poignant image will remain glowing forever. How grand, for a shared, heartfelt, fragment of human imagination.
    60
  3656. Drinker, you terribly consistent masterpiece of a human being, "what a surprise!", you hear me say.
    60
  3657. So thankful to read this title. I enjoy Tom Cruise as an actor and really wanted this film to not be bogged down by "THE MESSAGE" to prove there are some in hollywoke willing to make good films.
    59
  3658. And nothing of substance was lost.
    59
  3659. Critical Drinker: talks about the Doctor’s character and references David Tennant/10th Doctor’s Family of Blood storyline Me: YES
    59
  3660. Oh my, that interview with Jeremy renner had me lol for real.
    59
  3661. Waterworld has some really good sequences-- but they're the smaller quieter moments in the film. I ended up snagging the long director's cut on Blu-Ray and I still enjoy it. Also, practical effects are ALWAYS better. ALWAYS.
    59
  3662. It's at 28% now, even with rotten tomatoes removing ratings I have seen the numbers go up and down with the user ratings in the last 48 hours they might remove 300ish ratings every few hours but then we hit back with another 600+ more. So keep it up guys and vote with your wallet to tell those stuck up hollywood studios that We the normal people do not want a Captain SJW in our movies
    58
  3663. i , for the first time, watched ZULU last year...2019...was actually very nice...no CGI to relly on....just a good story!
    58
  3664. When Luke died, that was the HIGHEST sunset ever !!!
    58
  3665. Could have been a great movie about ancient origins but would have been better off as a standalone with no linkage to Aliens. Had a lot of promise with Rapace and Fassbender.
    58
  3666. The Drinker nails it again. I just finished the series and I came away sadder and more depressed at the show's message than I did frightened. It's more of a story about love loss and betrayal than spooks and one of the characters says as much at the end.
    58
  3667. I recommend The Long Kiss Goodnight. Thanks for including it, Drinker!
    57
  3668. Man, I don’t know. I really do like the cast and the 60s aesthetic for this umpteenth reboot; but I feel like this is going to tank. Director has barely done anything major (Cut Banks was a disaster), and the timing is so off.
    57
  3669. The Tea Break is my favorite union thing for productions. Netflix did a doc on the making of Aliens and James Cameron had the same issues of Tea break. I like to say, "My Mandated Tea Break" as a joke when I go on break.
    57
  3670. Nice. I had a friend recommend this movie to me and I’m definitely going to check it out since it has your seal of approval.
    57
  3671. "Escape into Delirium" - The Drinker we all wanted (and needed).
    57
  3672. Just saw it last night. Definitely agree 100%. Didn't hate it. It was a lot of fun. Wasn't Guy Ritchies best and I'll probably never watch it again. Was fun going to the theater again for the first time since last summer though. No regrets about seeing it at all. Easily probably the best movie in theaters right now but that's not saying a lot considering what a funk Hollywood is in
    57
  3673. I love how Disney lives in its own Disney world where geo-staggering releases makes any sense in year 2019. It's not like the release will be on high seas less than 2 hours from the first release.
    56
  3674. Upon reading the title of the video I wondered if being called the iPhone of anything was a compliment or an insult. Then, I thought some more and realized that the answer really depended on who you asked and therefore was pretty ambiguous. Much like whether or not Deckard is a replicant. That's pretty smart Mr. Drinker.
    56
  3675. It was so great to meet and get a signed book from you in Grand Rapids! I truly appreciate the inspirational words both you and Nerdrotic gave during your panel!
    56
  3676. excellent commentary I couldnt agree more with everything. And Chris Stuckmann lol I used to love but barely care to watch him because he stopped honest or critical reviews so he can get in the industry such a shame. Dont ever change critical drinker thats what makes u unique
    56
  3677. 2010! I've always thought it deserved way more respect. Cast and acting is A1.
    56
  3678. I think RE0 doesn't get enough love. The first RE game I played was the remake for GC and I was instantly hooked. So when Zero came out, I like it almost as much even though it was missing that destitute feeling of 1. I didn't find out until later how bad the originals were until Nemesis was released for the GC but not remastered. Love your RE series! These should have more views.
    56
  3679. The whole "First Order" is nothing but a gigantic joke with zero menace and ridiculous characters. In the expanded universe we had complex imperial characters like Thrawn, Mara Jade, Ysanne Isard, Admiral Pellaeon, Baron Fel and imperial "James Bond" Jahan Cross, but of course Disney is gonna Disney. You can't polish a turd.
    56
  3680. Thank You
    55
  3681. Drinker, you had me at an intergalactic space ship powered by boilers. 🤣
    55
  3682. I love this movie! I seriously thought I was the only one who saw it tho lol
    55
  3683. I was completely blown away by the first Tomb Raider when it came out. Great video good sir, also,go away games "Journalists".
    55
  3684. Thank you for reminding me to re-watch Edge of Tomorrow!
    55
  3685. The difference between art made by dedication with the scant resources they had and the shallow corporate mass produced shit nowadays, awesome work mate.
    55
  3686. I'm a fan of the movie, but despite my enjoyment, my eyebrows raised about 100 times watching, between the reused lines and the setup of the movie itself in the first scene being absolutely stupid (the Nastromo wreckage scene)
    55
  3687. I love how tight a leash Nintendo kept on this! The few scenes were Peach was a girl boss Are actually left overs of the original script, where the focus was Peach, but Nintendo stepped in. Now they were able to keep her kind and compassionate and still somewhat feminine, which is part of Peach her character. Props to Nintendo.
    55
  3688. I loved this series as well. Every episode is unique and builds upon the characters and the story. Episode 5 was absolutely stunning -- it told the story in two ways at the same time: via an allegorical puppet show that describes in real time what we are seeing on the screen. And the artwork is just mesmerizing.
    55
  3689. The hippie family were the most hated characters in the movie for me. At least the daughter seemed to be the only smart one lol
    54
  3690. Wow. Nailed it. Particularly the number 1 fight scene. Well put and spot on. I can still hear the dialogue and lines from that scene even though they weren't include in the clips. Liked and subscribed.
    54
  3691. C’mon, movie had emotion. You’re right, Adonis is fabricated, motivations hard to understand...Rey Effect (lol!) also, why inner-city Philly would embrace an LA kid so quick,..would Glasgow instantly love some rich London-Westminster silver-spoon?
    54
  3692. lol. i said to the wife for months that season 3 the writers have no clue what to do so they are dragging stuff along until they figure out what to do after they killed everyone in west world lol.
    54
  3693. Just as Dooku says: I’ve been waiting for this
    54
  3694. To be fair they don't make films, really. They just buy the crap that won't sell at festivals and the shit studios know will bomb in the cinema... Does Netflix og mean they actually greenlit it? Anyway... Have you ever seen One day Removals or Attack of the Herbals? Both from Aberdeen indie lads, they have their high points but budget constraints show. They made a third horror film i forget the name. It sucked. But as a fellow Scottish film lad I say give them a shot, we don't make fuck all after all...
    53
  3695. Future generations will wonder what the fuck happened and no one will be able to give them a proper answer.
    53
  3696. It was made for the writers, directors and producers that made it.
    53
  3697. I am desperate to see this. The story behind the man is extraordinary. We need more movies like this.
    53
  3698. Wait, how'd you get rid of the copyright block so fast? I'm very impressed.
    53
  3699. One of my favorite parts in this movie was when as soon as Zorg opened the box, thinking the stones were in it, he stressfully laughs. That quick transition was priceless.
    52
  3700. There is so much misogyny on YouTube these days. This isn't one example. This is a criticism of really bad writing that we have to endure when watching many popular movies and shows.
    52
  3701. Understanding the existing series and the target major crowd is a must. Remasters would have been cheaper yet better way to make money like those music CDs.
    52
  3702. Wait wait wait wait... That jump from the stationary wagon. Is he jumping backwards? With a spin? And turns around on landing? What did he think? I'd better get 10 foot closer to the enemies while showing my back the entire time before nocking an arrow and drawing my bow? Does that little distance gained really justify 5 seconds of being out in the open in what I can only assume is a dangerous situation?
    52
  3703. I've been here since 50k and I will be here til the sun explodes. Well done, mate.
    52
  3704. goddamn you deserve more subs
    52
  3705. I like how you picked an actor who looks like Cavill for Ryan Drake! Hard to judge the project from a trailer but bravo for having the stones to make something & hoping it turns out well!
    52
  3706. So funny. Good job. 👍😀
    52
  3707. “Not hated enough movie ever”
    52
  3708. Extraction, John Wick, Mission Impossible. Elite movie making.
    51
  3709. Ryan Reynolds...you had my curiosity. Now my attention. In the immortal words of Raphe Fiennes' M from Skyfall..."Don't cock it up."
    51
  3710. As someone who's never read a Bond book but grew up in the 80s and 90s with the movies; Roger Moore will always be the first person I think of when I think of James Bond. He was the perfect blend of charm and seriousness. That said Sean was of course utterly amazing too, and (from what some have told me) far more accurate to the books. Since they were both a part of my childhood I have a tremendous amount of nostalgia for both. The Bond film on Sunday afternoons or Christmas day etc - it felt like a treat back then. Sad that I can barely feel excited for the franchise anymore.
    51
  3711. Westworld was brave Drinker! It was brave enough to be remembered as one of the biggest falls from grace in T.V history! In all seriousness, its been a long while that I've seen a show go from crazy popularity and word of mouth attention to a forgettable piece of trash that people only vaguely remember when hearing its name!
    51
  3712. I really hope this movie is a success. We need different sci-fi franchises or just anything original that isn't Star Wars, Marvel or Star Trek taking up all the cinematic landscape. I recall when Jupiter Accending came out that the directors where asking people to go see it to help keep original productions being greenlit and while that wasn't the film to advocate for such a thing, the directors were dead on right about original ideas no longer getting greenlighted. Heck, even George Lucas was complaining about how companies don't want to bankroll anything that is original.
    50
  3713. The "who are you ?" joke was really bad in the episode.
    50
  3714. This is the Sci-fi we need!!! Thanks For reviewing You unimaginable Master piece of a Man
    50
  3715. "Famurous" lmao
    50
  3716. I remember if you completed the game in under 3 hours you got the rocket launcher with infinite ammo which was life changing for the next play through.
    49
  3717. As a masssssive fan of the books, I'm as pleased with this adaptation as I was with LotR. Sure, I find it a bit strange to have altered Chani and her place in the ending, and I'm a little bit "disappointed" about Paul's son absence and the change to his sister, but the whole of what make the first book insanely good is here. A few sub-plot that explain things better were missed but given the amount of events in tve books it is fairly understandable. It's been ages since I've exited a cinema with a huge smile on my face, even more so concerning an adaptation ! Incredible work !!
    49
  3718. Finally, a good horror movie this year 😭
    49
  3719. Ive been waiting all week for this review.. My guy! You didn't disappoint. Love 👊
    49
  3720. True story here: As I was leaving the theater with my friend, Tom, I said, "That's the most likeable I've ever seen Rosie O'Donell" . He replied, "That was Melissa McArthy." I actually had mistaken one for the other, but we laughed harder at THAT than we did the entire movie.
    49
  3721. 13:20 "Then Bran shows up and he leaves again." LMAO
    49
  3722. Based on Drinker description, this show has become budget GoT rather than Tolkien's Middle Earth story
    49
  3723. You can tell that KK has been heavily involved in this
    49
  3724. Another easy solution to the internal struggle aspect- make her part of a smaller, more specific religious group that’s heavily pacifist. Easy way to create struggle since there’s always violence in these situations.
    48
  3725. this should have 800k views !
    48
  3726. How could you not include "Terrible demons ouch!"? I bought director's cut a year or two after it came out. I was a die hard resident evil fan from that moment up until 4 came out. Loved the original games.
    48
  3727. I'm so glad you agree that 28 Weeks Later was actually a solid film. Such a great movie that got a lot of hate from the original creators.
    48
  3728. Deadpool & Wolverine is a loveletter to the fans, to the X-Men and Marvel in general! For me it was really good time with crude humor, meta jokes, great action scenes and most of all: seeing Wolverine and Deadpool in action together. That's exactly what I wanted from this movie and that's exactly what I got.
    48
  3729. Looks like Henry Cavill have big problems with luck when it comes to movies and series. Witcher, DC, Argrylle this and who knows if he will not have conflict with Amazon about diversity in Warhammer.
    48
  3730. Trey Parker and Matt Stone on good storytelling "Between each beat should be either the word "BUT" or "THEREFORE". This movie after each pointless scene: "AND THEN, AND THEN, AND THEN!"
    48
  3731. "Because it involves Scottish guys doing what Scottish guys do best: murdering people with big fucking swords!". Well, that explains the Glaswegian side of my family...I pissed myself laughing when you said that Drinker, by the way. Quality work, sir!
    48
  3732. One of the most on point write ups I’ve seen for this movie. I actually appreciated it for not being some over the top, CGI filled action flick but a well executed and thought provoking movie.
    48
  3733. I think this may be the only new show I've looked forward to season 2 immediately after finishing season 1 in a very long time.
    47
  3734. I never knew that trick with the rope! My mind is blown!
    47
  3735. Absolutely the most spot on commentary on modern entertainment I've seen from The Drinker yet---and that's F-ing saying something. Must have been a particularly smooth bottle of JD this time!
    47
  3736. I know Mike and Rich are definitely happy. The RLM videos on Discovery are literally the only good things to come out of the series.
    47
  3737. You are one inspirational Drunkard!!! 😸😸😸
    47
  3738. Last time I Flashed a comment this fast since Ezra “choke me harder” Miller was still working
    46
  3739. Strange... I'm having "Dark Fate" vibes here. This trailer tells me that... i won't be seeing this one :-D
    46
  3740. I lift a glass in your honor Drinker. Thank you for making 2019 a bit more tolerable. May you have a solid 2020 with even greater growth for your channel. You deserve it.
    46
  3741. As you said when you mentioned tiktok, I think the damage is already manifesting. We all are going to have to work hard to counteract this societal poison by creating good stories for people to look up to.
    46
  3742. Drinker: laughs drunkenly at the part about the diving bell accident Automatic subtitles: [Music] Yes...good boy.
    46
  3743. Regarding Point #2 in this video, it's very similar to what we see today in modern popular music production. Here's an example. Beyonce's last album was Renaissance released in 2022. That album has: 23 different producers 13 different studios 100+ songwriters (I legitimately got tired of counting and using a spreadsheet to make sure I wasn't doubling up the count) No song had fewer than five songwriters or or three producers. Now, go listen to Beyonce's song "Heated," and try to figure out what there is about this song that required 19 songwriters and 10 producers. Because, that is what is on the credits list for the song.
    46
  3744. I took my 9yo son to "28 Days Later" in 2002. It's still our favorite. Running Zombies!
    45
  3745. After I finished Nier Replicant on my PS3 nine years ago in 2010, I learned from interviews that two of the four extremely awesome, well written and likable main characters of the game are one homosexual and one hermaphrodite, which wasn't really mentioned anywhere in the game or its ad campaigns. The other two characters are a book and the main character whose sexual preferences are unknown, but he falls in love with the hermaphrodite, so it's quite open in that regard as well. And the point is, it doesn't really matter. The game's director Taro Yoko said at that time that it doesn't really matter. That's just how people arr. And I absolutely agree with that! It shouldn't play the least role for a game's story. I fell in love with the game and its main characters long before I learned this.
    45
  3746. Brie* Larson don't have the class and charisma of Gal Gadot ! *Brie, is also a delicious french cheese.
    45
  3747. This show made me replay all S.T.A.L.K.E.R games
    45
  3748. Funny. I was just thinking this exact thing this morning about celebs & social media. You hit the nail on the head. What do you expect from narcissists surrounded by sycophants?
    45
  3749. THANK YOU CRIT and all your sacrifice for watching all the other crap to give us your favorites ❤
    44
  3750. Oh how I long for the notification that the maestro of mead has uploaded a video positively packed with some of his hearty highland hyperbole and signature Scottish sarcasm
    44
  3751. Rare to see game related videos but i'll take it. Always glad to have the notif bell turned on.
    44
  3752. Lmfao you just made my day
    44
  3753. Ah, the ending of discrimination. We obviously end discrimination against our dwarven brothers and sisters by refusing to ever give them jobs. I find no flaws with that stunning and brave logic. This would have been a massive win for dwarves. 7 of them would have been in a remake that is bound to make history. I mean, not a good part of history for sure, but history none the less. Exposure + a paycheck is usually a good thing for actors. I guess treating them fairly was a tall order that Hollywood fell short of.
    44
  3754. There aren't words for how powerful this short film was, like being given a few more precious moments with at an old friend that we'd thought was long gone. For those of us who grew up watching Kirk, Spock, McCoy and the rest of the crew overcome incredible odds and inspire us to find the best and noblest part of ourselves, this was a touching, poignant coda to our childhood heroes and those treasured memories.
    44
  3755. This movie, while not being a masterpiece itself, certainly has some of the best set design and practical fx productions ever, they take this movie to a whole other level compared to the competition. People should look back with insane admiration of what they accomplished. Beautiful set pieces. SO DAMN COOL!
    44
  3756. Your Recommends videos have turned me on to so many great films, I don't think you've ever let me down. Even if it's just an old favorite, please make more Recommends videos
    43
  3757. Even if Sony makes Knull the main villain in Spider-Man 4 I don’t even think i would take him seriously because his name means “Fuck.” In Swedish lmao.
    43
  3758. Ngl; this is one of the few superhero films I'm excited for.
    43
  3759. Won’t be quietly as long as we have Drinker to laugh at it
    43
  3760. Its almost like todays movies are mostly made for children, because the inept villains are exactly like those in 80s cartoons. Add the immature jokes and behaviour present in for example Star wars and JJ Star Trek...see what I mean?
    42
  3761. Oh, RE games on Playstation 1... pressing X on everything everywhere, loved it!
    42
  3762. "You and me; we're the same, me and you. We're the same, don't you see?". "WE ARE NOT THE SAME. I'm an American and you are a sick <bleeped>". Love that scene.
    42
  3763. What a hilarious wonderful video! As a brown female who's been a geek/nerd - scifi/fantasy/comics lover my whole life, I've seen many different women portrayed as a well-rounded bad-ass character whether as a villain or hero with all their strengths and their flaws. So CM marketing really turned me off from the movie... I won't be seeing it, even though it supposedly meant to "speak to" or "made for" me.
    42
  3764. Been waiting for this since I watched the film.
    42
  3765. Craig reminds me of a depressed Barney the dinosaur.
    41
  3766. When even the Drinker praises a movie you KNOW it’s going to be 🔥
    41
  3767. When I was a kid my favourite game was Jill of the Jungle. And when I created my parties in RPG games I'd always split the genders 50/50. But I realise now how I was just a massive sexist for being a male into video games.
    41
  3768. Can I just send you some drink instead? Then I know your using my money to get drunk instead of wasting it on food or heating.
    41
  3769. Must be very satisfying to have your books adapted into a film while also having creative control over how your characters are portrayed, few authors are so lucky. Congrats I hope its awesome.
    41
  3770. Trailer for me was just...ok, but i think it's gonna be way better than Captain non-America
    41
  3771. The first season was pretty clever satire. Now it’s just bitter projection.
    41
  3772. Hearing the full story I have a lot more sympathy for Whedon. I thought he just phoned it in and made junk to cover for Snyder. The truth is the studio set him up to fail because they needed to take advantage of AT&T and the abuse rolled all the way downhill.
    41
  3773. This has always been one of my favorite action/thriller films, from the time I was about 11 or 12 years old. I still watch it at least once or twice a year. Thank you for this video!
    41
  3774. This has been the thing I’ve been most looking forward to for a while now. I know you’ll do us proud. Congrats Drinker, really looking forward to it!
    40
  3775. If anyone could make it out of Madame Webb with their sanity intact, it's the Drinker. Thanks for confirming that this movie was not made for human consumption
    40
  3776. One of the best movies ever, balls out action with surprising cerebral sci-fi mixed in.
    40
  3777. "But I don't like violence!" mows down every enemy and their puppy with an AK47 and fire arrows "I totally have character growth and practically developed combat training to warrant being praised as a strong wahman! proceeds to kill special ops cult members and bemoan the fact that surviving and fighting is brutal and difficult. Also don't forget it's new Lara's fault that the end of the world even started to begin with.
    40
  3778. 28% now 😁👌
    40
  3779. My only after seeing Covenant in theater was "I regret not walking out"
    40
  3780. Great job dude - you advocate well on Luke’s behalf - hamill must be pissed to accept this . Hope he’s seen your defence .
    40
  3781. Damn...regular viewers can tell the difference in tone and inflection from each of the Drinker's "go away now"s as a clue into how he feels about what he is reviewing. I am eager to see this film.
    40
  3782. I love that you covered this!!!😂❤
    39
  3783. Dude the drinker is on point and knows his shit. Literally agree with 99% of everything he puts out. A few missed points here and there but for the most part he is brutally honest and it's so refreshing. Never change Drinker. Never change... Did the Drinker recommend RoboCop yet???? (The Original of course)
    39
  3784. Think about how much more expressive and human the dwarves in the original look during the same dancing scene in the original, even alongside the rotoscoped Snow White. That was with technology from over 85 years ago. This was clearly a last minute change and they'd probably blown the budget by then.
    39
  3785. I'm probably done with the MCU after end game, i feel like infinity war and Ragnorak were the only things that brought me back honestly. All the movies before that were just meh
    39
  3786. I think these crap villains come from the idea that evil people are "other". These writers think (or are mandated to write as if) they are the good guys, they could never be pushed to evil, and all evil people are incompetent. The scarier truth is that everyone is capable of evil if pushed in just the right way, and some evil people are very intelligent and effective. That's uncomfortable to think about though so shut up and eat your popcorn.
    39
  3787. Possibly the funniest review Drinker has ever done. I’m sure this was 10 times more entertains than the movie itself.
    39
  3788. I’m keeping my fingers crossed for this one. I admit I’m still squeamish about Pedro Pascal’s casting as Reed, but for what it’s worth the trailer made this attempt at translating the FF to live action seem earnest. I appreciate the emphasis on family, and if done correctly it could be a fun/interesting change of pace compared to other Marvel movies we’ve been receiving recently.
    38
  3789. Thank you Mr. drinker. I was waiting for someone to call stop to this Multiverse trope.
    38
  3790. Saw title and started watching, was disappointed but understood where you were coming from. The music started swelling and I started to get suspicious. Checked the calendar. You got me you magnificent bastard. Happy April Fools’ and keep up the good work!
    38
  3791. Nothing comes close to the 80s when it comes to movies.
    38
  3792. The only one that won't be a flop is Daredevil.
    38
  3793. Thanks for coming to megacon! Such a privilege to get to meet you in person.
    37
  3794. History lesson combined with critical entertainment. Best of both worlds.
    37
  3795. I lose it every time to the "event horizon nightmare scream" sound effect
    37
  3796. Evie "You swear?" Rick "Every damn day" I use to find that hysterical when I was a kid. Not quite sure why. Anyways, love this movie!
    37
  3797. Oh man, I was waiting for this since I first saw the trailer last night…Thanks Drinker!! Midea Goes To World War Two
    37
  3798. I have read the comic books and the movie is in the same style.(seen it in the cinema) Well done David Fincher! I also love the fact that the Killer acts always logical and doesn't do stupid things to push the story in a new direction. It is becoming quite popular. It was only a limited time in the cinema and then on Netflix It should have been a full release!
    37
  3799. I think the part that gets me out of the immersion of modern movies is just how light everything seems to be. People get hit through the air and bounce off the ground like tennis balls.
    37
  3800. The Thing and Aliens paved the way for the greatest sci-fi horror movie of all time; Event Horizon.
    37
  3801. Happy New year drinker.... you have became my favourite Youtuber this year. All the best for 2020.
    37
  3802. ​ @keegobricks9734  There is a general theme about the class struggle between the rich privileged above ground people versus the poor clones. And this class struggle is caused by the government who created the clones, just like the real government created poverty and privilege (in Jordan Peele's mind)
    37
  3803. You didn’t show images of Special Agent Dana Scully from “The X Files”, who often rescued Mulder from an unpleasant end and whose character, along with Agent Starling, for an influx of female applications to the FBI. Or the characters Cathy Gale, Emma Peel and Tara King from the Sixties series ‘The Avengers”, each of whom would beat the crap out of some man/men in each episode.
    37
  3804. Easily one of the best shows put out last year. Didn’t get a lot of advertising either, but man was it amazing.
    36
  3805. I love this show. And now I hate it. Thanks!
    36
  3806. Saw this movie over the weekend, and I agree that it was surprisingly fun. I even chuckled 2 times. All in all, I walked away pleased.
    36
  3807. My grandmother told me "I don't care what they tell you in school but THE CRITICAL DRINKER was black "
    36
  3808. Hollywood: Do you think its a bad idea to let an alcoholic direct a new project? Drinker: Naw, it'l be fine.
    36
  3809. Personally, my favorite moment was when he yelled "it's KRAVEN time!" then kraved all over the place
    35
  3810. The most Economically Viable review of Falling Down
    35
  3811. I’ve been waiting on this ! Loved this show . Really wanted to hear your opinion on it
    35
  3812. The Critical Drinker plays games? ~ p e r f e c t ~
    35
  3813. Even thought I found it inferior compared to the first film, I found it throughly enjoyable and felt genuinely invested in the characters.
    35
  3814. I think Rey was just the inevitable outcome from the decision to make a 'woke' trilogy. The main issue I have with the 'woke' movie is that it can't allow it's female lead to be seen to be weak in any way, shape or form. Likewise it cannot allow it's male characters to be seen as possessing much in the way of beneficial masculine traits; the characters of Kylo and Poe both suffer badly from this, especially Kylo as he's been set up as the major villain for the trilogy.
    35
  3815. Its be a fun twist if they made Captain Anti-America a villian and had him fight Captain America.
    35
  3816. I totally agree with your list, especially Daniel Craig's version. I thought Casino Royale was exceptional but the rest of them never measured up to it. He was definitely the most depressing and I couldn't stand that all five of his movies were one long story. It's one of the reasons why I gave up on Bond and didn't even bother to watch the last film in the theater. Well, that and how the studio thought it would be a good idea to push 'the message' in the first trailer. Great work Drinker, keep it up!
    35
  3817. Love Predator 2. Danny Glover is a badass who doesn't give a f**k. Plus, I always found it weird that when the predator chases Danny Glover without the mask, he still has the blue infrared vision, I guess it's because the red one wouldn't work, it would be too hard to see.....maybe it was just voodoo magic man. Let's not forget Psycho 2. Super underrated.
    35
  3818. ...so far. Sometimes, when you hit rock bottom, someone hands you a pick. They can get lower. XD
    34
  3819. Tyler Durden to this day the BEST Role that Brad Pitt EVER had.
    34
  3820. Well done sir. At least now I can say something good about the final season..your scathing, sarcastic summary.
    34
  3821. Thank you! You've expressed my disappointment and hurt at the God awfulness of the new films with your usual lucidity, verve and dare I say, drunken class!
    34
  3822. The genius of this series is even better than The Genius of the movie. Well done.
    34
  3823. This review is EXACTLY why I love this channel. Brilliant.
    34
  3824. I just noticed the screenwriter for this POS. It was John Logan. Know what else he wrote? Star Trek Nemesis. Yeah. Sigh.
    34
  3825. 4:16 - 5:05 is pure, unmitigated cinema. A 49 second summary of the disingenuous, and complete incompetence of an individual whose mind is warped by lies. fed by others, themselves, or a combination of the pair. I have no sympathy for Kathleen Kennedy as a movie executive, her work speaks for itself. I do have sympathy for Kathleen Kennedy the woman; and the misinformed, petty, childish, and delusional existence she must live within. She truly believes she has done no wrong, and we are to blame for her failings; with no room for introspection, or self-reflection. That is an un-enviable position to be in.
    34
  3826. I still love the bit where the baddie sets up an ambush then grabs the candy bars and starts eating. The things you remember...
    34
  3827. I watched what was allegedly the 2016 movie, but honestly it just felt like a bunch of out-takes.
    34
  3828. at 06:09 I know we're taught no to judge people on their face, appearance, demeanor, whatever, but damn... when you look at this bellend, your first thought has to be, well... what a bellend!
    33
  3829. Found your channel when a co-worker was forwarding around your video on Captain Marvel and the modern myth that we've never had strong women in cinema. Been a fan ever since, keep up the great content!
    33
  3830. Wasn't expecting Boss Nass to tell me to go away now 😂
    33
  3831. Spot on Drinker:)))) Hilarious!!!
    33
  3832. I miss when action films were forced to use practical effects. CGI's become way too much of a crutch in modern films.
    33
  3833. The scene where Riley sacrifices himself is one of the most tragically beautiful scenes I've ever seen on TV or movies. You knew he was going to do it but it still hurt like hell when he did. I liked that they didn't drag it out, they didn't try to milk it, they just let it happen and end abruptly. It was fucking great.
    33
  3834. Dude, your videos are awesome, keep it real
    33
  3835. I think I'll actually watch this now because of this review
    33
  3836. Alright, everyone, let’s settle down for a moment and raise a glass, or indeed an entire bottle, to mark the release of Rogue Elements. Now, Drinker, we all know the odds were stacked against you from the start: a scrappy lad from Scotland, armed with little more than a sharp wit, an endless supply of cynicism, and, let’s be honest, a liver that's seen more action than most Hollywood blockbusters. But somehow, you turned those odds into an opportunity and presented us with this glorious, gut-punching, testosterone-fueled tribute to the classics of the genre. Rogue Elements is as sharp as your tongue after a few wee drams, and a testament to your ability to mix grit with charm. Just like a fine whisky, it is smokey, bold, and delivers a kick that leaves a lasting impression. So, to The Critical Drinker, we salute you. Cheers, mate!
    33
  3837. Can’t say I’ve got much hope for it. Avatar may be the biggest money making movie of its time but it’s a movie I never here talked about in a social or cultural kinda sense. It always comes as a surprise when someone mentions … “ oh yeah , I remember that, what’s James Cameron doing now?”, is the usual reply. I’ve never said or heard someone say “ oh yeah, I remember that , hope they make a sequel “.
    33
  3838. So pleased to see this has come to fruition! Congratulations to all involved!
    33
  3839. I applaud you for all of the content, Drinker. You hit the nail right on the head with this one. I am a filmmaker, and actor, that writes his own feature films. I currently have two streaming across the globe on VOD, and have had two amazing film festival runs. Both movies, BOTH, were done for under 7k. Audiences seem to be loving it, and it is amazing how one can actually make great films (not content), if the heart is there. I go in not wondering if the audience is gonna like it or not. I went in seeing if I could actually do it, and I did. Didn't need backers, associate producers, or someone to give sensitivty training. In the end, we are story tellers. And that is what fuels the fire for the viewers. Great story, great relationships, characters arc.. The audience thrives on that, because they see themselves up there. It's all run on empathy. I could only dream of what I could do with a budget of a mere 100 million. Heck, 100k for that matter. Thanks, Drinker. Been watching you for awhile now, and I look forward to new videos. Keep on doin what you are doin. Joke em if they can't take a fuck, yeah? -Travis Greer
    33
  3840. With the fall of Kathleen Kennedy at the hands of her announced retirement, reality had broken the back of the Wokeness that now plagues the franchise. Under normal circumstances, it would have been a time for celebration. But our next wait put paid to those thoughts.
    33
  3841. Why is it that this critique of the trailer is way more interesting than the real trailer? Thank you Drinker for this... seriously, I needed this after seeing the trailer yesterday.
    32
  3842. Great review Drinker! One of my all time favorite games. I remember playing the demo for RE2 on PS1 RE1 special edition. The remake is amazing.
    32
  3843. Finally a hopeful superman and not an emo, depressed superman. And I'm happy that for once clark Kent looks different than superman lol not just the glasses BS
    32
  3844. That's all right. As long as we hate everything together that's all that matters. A toast of Jack from the states on our Independence Day my friend!
    32
  3845. 6:00 Exactly. It works because it has no delusions about what it is or isn’t. And I love it for that. Also, Godzilla suplexes Kong off a pyramid. 10/10
    32
  3846. The Peter Jackson trilogy will ALWAYS be beloved. Fantasy at its absolute best!
    32
  3847. As a fan of Tom Clancy, I was very pleased with what I saw here. Don't let anyone buy you out drinker. Protect this and nurture it. You got something really good here.
    32
  3848. I LOVE that you're the first review to mention - where the FUCK did they get the power for the elevator? :)

  3849. ill give anderson ONE thing. he was REALLY good at cliffhangers with these films. even though theyre shameless trash he did leave ya thinking "jaysus the NEXT one looks good". ill be honest as a fan of the games the second one "apocalypse" (which couldnt be called "nemisis" because of STAR TREK of all things! ) was a much more faithful affair, and hey ANY film that can get sienna gilory into a boob tube has gotta got SOMETHING going for it. :D

  3850. I actually worked on an action figure for this movie years ago. The president of the company I was working for was friends with the director of this movie and so we were able to make the toy. Unfortunately the company fell into financial troubles and the either the action figure only saw a limited release or wasn't released at all. I don't recall.

  3851. Another Drinker's classic!
    31
  3852. Was that you Drinker on the rooftop at 24:58? :) By the way great work, reminds me of the Strike Back series back in the day.
    31
  3853. The fact that the media are all jerking themselves off over this episode and trying their damnedest to convince us all that Arya isn't a Mary Sue confirms that she is indeed, a Mary Sue.
    31
  3854. Great commentary man! I agree with you T1000%
    31
  3855. Mr Drinker on the off chance you see this, I want to extend a huge congratulations to you. You put your money where your mouth is and here we are. Absolutely fantastic.
    30
  3856. Drinker quoting that Muppet Christmas Carol fire in the intro.
    30
  3857. Agree 100% about the MCU. Endgame is probably my last hurrah with the MCU. While these Star Wars films have been bad, I do have hope for Rise of Skywalker. Hope that Jar Jar Binks comes back and the Emperor was his apprentice! We shall see.
    30
  3858. 'Run out of things to ruin' Exactly.
    30
  3859. Several things: 1. It's kind of odd that you complained about the logic and science of the steroid-esque herb when there are other more inexplicable things/characters in Marvel's foreground lore (e.g. the Hulk literally turns into the green giant because of gamma rays? Vision is a mesh of AI, two men's minds, and an INFINITY STONE? I don't hear any geologists complaining about that one). 2. I disagree that Wakanda's method of deciding king is inappropriate given its technological prowess. Not all nations have to abide by the same electoral and democratic model that western civilizations employ. Plus, it maintains traditions. Similarly, in Aquaman SPOILERS the king does not have to be the popular vote - just the one serving the beatdown. You may disagree with that model, but both socities, Wakanda and Atlantis, seem to cherish their traditions. 3. Who is to say that Wakanda did not open its doors to adjacent African nations before or around the same that T'challa and his sis went to the States? (No, really - I don't remember if they made it clear in the movie that they hadn't gone anywhere but to America.) Who is to even say that Wakanda's neighbors need their aid in the universe this is set in? 4. If the science of T'challa's brief plunge in ice is wacky, explain to me how Captain America or Bucky survived the first Captain America movie (in what would appear to be similar yet far less plausible situations). 5. Your stance on the marriage of traditional African elements within sci-fi is your prerogative, but it shouldn't exonerate other similar Marvel settings, such as Asgard. Truthfully, I don't know your stance on such other Marvel settings, but this one shouldn't endure your wrath alone. 6. If Bilbo or Gollum are known to be prominent in New York or London, why would they conduct a surreptitious business deal in New York or London? One could argue that they would seem to be going about ordinary business if they stayed "home," honestly, but it doesn't seem too out of place to have both travel somewhere mutually foreign. 7. The happenstance of vibranium and the subsequent affluence of its beholder isn't as absurd as it's made out to be in this video. The advent of steel weaponry, for example, gave European powers vast dominance mostly because no one else had it. That's just how the cookie crumbles sometimes. 8. Shuri's role is so vast simply because her intelligence is so incredible. I wouldn't entrust just any 15 year old off the street with my livelihood, but if she possesses medical knowledge eons out of my league, just show me where to sign. That's the beauty of the character - she's just that capable. It's unbelievable because her talent is. I'm not saying this movie is phenomenal and can deflect every critique, but I do think it fits in the lore of the MCU given prior entries to the franchise.

  3860. Love you Drinker
    29
  3861. This is why I love to watch Drinker's reviews 👏🏾 🙌🏾 not all heroes wear cape, some drink Jack Daniel's.
    29
  3862. I believe we are missing the important point in most video games, is the main character i control a type 2 vegan. I can not go around as a gun toting cop killing people if they ate meat. I find it totally unrealistic for game to not provide us this information. Also that there is no game that explicate shows that eating plants are far superior than eating dead carcass of animals.
    29
  3863. A truly unnerving trailer. The poem 'Boots' is ideal for the scenario they are in. It's a truly horrific poem for what will hopefully be a amazing sequal* to 28 days later. *I don't really count 28 weeks later
    29
  3864. That magic bullshit device for reconstructing molecule memories (or something) reminds me that once, Star Trek was a huge influence on actual science, since their ideas were pretty grounded, even tho fiction. People were dreaming about tech, that could actually be developed someday, because they were based on facts and logic. Now... we have magic bullshit nonsense stuff. Amazing.

  3866. Emily Beecham would have been great for this role, with a different script of course. Scrap all the identity politics and give us a strong female with character, a back story, a journey, not a Mary Sue. I am subscribing to you bro.
    29
  3867. I love videos like this. This stuff is fascinating to learn about. When a game or movie flops, actually learning all the reasons why is like *chef’s kiss*
    29
  3868. Yeah when I saw that poster a few months ago I got pretty excited. He said he wouldn't make a 3rd film till he had a idea
    28
  3869. I liked it and it didn't make me think there would be a future for me in the MCU.
    28
  3870. Now when I hear your voice I get the sudden urge to get into my Gin. Weird.
    28
  3871. Couldn't tell it was an indie project. A lot usually sticks out like the cinematography or acting. Solid trailer that feels like it's drawing influences with stuff like Sicario. And you don't have to tell everyone that you helped with it at every chance. Props Will.
    27
  3872. Thanks Drinker for making more movie recommendations these videos are really great
    27
  3873. I’m a special effects pyrotechnician by trade and this video explains perfectly what is going on with the film biz. The use of CG as a crutch instead of what it was intended to be (a tool meant to accomplish what simply cannot through normal means) amounts to nothing more than outright laziness when it comes to filmmaking. This fact is made all the worse when you realize that this laziness is thrown into $200+ million films that they still expect to be major blockbusters you are to blow $12 or more a ticket on. Talk about a bait-and-switch… Part of what used to make movies great was how they made audiences say “how the hell did they do that???!!!”. CG took that wonder away and replaced it with outright laziness.
    27
  3874. Couldn’t agree more bro and thanks for the laughs! I’m dying here! 😂😂😂 And don’t even get me started on ghost. That dire wolf has been with John from the beginning, a bond a battle brother who even watched over his dead body as he was coming back to life, a true battle brother and partner to John and how’s it end for them? What’s their goodbye?...... a nod and walk out ...... ARE U FUCKING KIDDING ME!!!???? THATS IT!!!??? This dire wolf has been fighting with you whenever you need and a lot of times whenever you didn’t need, he’s been watching your back like a wolf pack brother and you just up and walk out? That’s the amazing writing that the writers had for John and his wolf brother for eight seasons ghost? WTF
    27
  3875. This is one of those projects that would "find it's audience on VHS" back in the day. Gen-X parents will love to have a Goonies or ET or Treasure Island type show to enjoy and watch with their kids. You don't need the sequels or the Acolyte o enjoy this. But if you want just a little more good Star Wars to watch once you've gotten through Rebels with your kids, this is perfect.
    27
  3876. Thank you for reminding me of Quistis blasting the absolute shit out of a rampaging robot. Good Times. :)
    27
  3877. Should've known it was crap when Kristen Wiig was the anti-hero. She is anti-talented.
    27
  3878. I just watched Predator 2 a couple of nights ago, what a great film and I remember when it first came out. Same with 2010, the only thing I wish we would have gotten were decent sequels to the rest of the story after 2010 to finish up Arthur C. Clarke's books. I saw Ghostbusters 2 in the theater, same as the first and while it wasn't as good as the first, it was still a lot of fun.
    27
  3879. This movie was well before its time, and it's themes are just as relevant in 2020. "The Things you own end up owning you", is the most poignant message, which has resonated with me to this very day. ☺️💟
    27
  3880. I was rolling in my chair, from one emotional nostalgia wave to the next. 7 minutes and 35 seconds of Star Trek.
    26
  3881. I would love to see some more production hell videos on projects that ended up really good. The Predator video is one of my favorite videos.
    26
  3882. I was hoping to win, I didn’t want to be named after a character I just wanted one to be named HAWK after the legendary fighter in Cobra Kai, my favorite TV show this year recommended by you. Much thanks, you gave me a reason to have hope for TV and Cinema. And for that, I’ll have a glass of Jameson in your honor. Salud
    26
  3883. The video title might be the most accurate thing of all time
    26
  3884. Congratulations. Can't wait. Also, it was nice to meet you in Grand Rapids.
    26
  3885. Dope video man
    26
  3886. Hoped for the best, got the same shit as always. Thanks Disney.
    26
  3887. love the work Drinker. Stories of troubled productions are always a joy. Gives some perspective on how many moving parts there actually are in the making of a film.
    25
  3888. Best sarcastic video ever!
    25
  3889. It's very sad if we never get this because I think it could be great and perfect timing for CGI potential and current cultural issues. History channel should take it!!! It would be great if they did everything exactly like in the books, except tweak the last two books because they would have to. Bring back more Clan people to trade with in the end, and have a gathering with even, because we now how that they bred together at extraordinary levels. That's what Jean Auel should have done with the books once we had more information about what happened. >.<
    25
  3890. Craggy island! DRINK!
    25
  3891. Predator 2 is awseome and I maybe like it even more than the first one. Remember the times sequels stayed true to the core material and where actually good and fun?!
    25
  3892. I really enjoy these, well written retrospectives with some good facts and opinions that take the history of the game and technical limitations of the time into account. Keep up the good work my friend! :)
    25
  3893. I’ve literally been saying this for the last 15 years. I call it the CGI cluster fuck move of modern movies. It renders me exhausted and apathetic to what is happening on screen. It really got abused when the marvel movies came out 10 years ago. I always used the original Jurassic Park as my reference to intelligent utilization of cgi offsetting actual animatronics
    25
  3894. That Jeremy Renner click is right up there with sad Affleck lol
    25
  3895. You know you’ve made quite the achievement of 💩when your film is as bad/worse than Uwe Boll’s movies, which feel like they were made a lifetime ago.
    25
  3896. Glad they finally let you post it! Third times the charm. This video really nails home why Star Wars worked and was so important to all of us. It wasn't a sci-fi movie we were enjoying, it was the story of a people doing everything they could to make their worlds better, even Darth Vader thought he was doing the right thing... a key element to a true villain.
    25
  3897. Really got those matpat flashbacks before realising what is today's date
    24
  3898. The Skrulls are a bunch of laid back Australians...😂😂😂 I couldn't stop laughing!
    24
  3899. This trailer has so much testosterone, its oozes through the screen! Looks great! Good old fashion He-Man heroics! Plus its nice you got Mike Dopud on the project, he's great a playing villains.
    24
  3900. Your books are addictive AF! Please talk about them on this channel... You need more praise for your writing skills.
    24
  3901. Be more Cap Son!
    24
  3902. Omg, these videos are priceless. You just made me drink and subscribe.
    24
  3903. You know its gonna be bad when the Drinker says: " Fear not, dear viewer ... "
    24
  3904. Celebrimbor in the most oblivious manner: "How only a few seconds ago, a man just your size and appearance disappeared in thin air. How is this possible? By the way, you remind me of him... except that wig".
    24
  3905. Rey as a character had so much potential. But they turned her into a bland, boring Mary Sue and it took away any tension or even basic interest in what she was doing. You knew exactly how every conflict was going to turn out for her, the only question was how long it would take to get to that predetermined conclusion. I've seen adult films with more compelling characters. My biggest problem, aside from that, her character made zero sense for her backstory. Abandoned as a child on a harsh, desert planet, presumably a fairly dog-eat-dog place, making a living scavenging parts and fighting off attackers? How does that background result in a kind hearted, virtuous angelic figure whose main motivation - according to Daisy Ridleys interviews - is "doing the right thing?" Leaving aside how this abstract concept reveals how shallow and empty her character is, how does she even KNOW what the "right thing" is? Did the nuns smack her hand every time she tried to steal extra food? Rey should have been a mildly sociopathic, opportunistic thief and scavenger, a real "look out for number one" type. That would have made sense for her backstory, and would have been an incredibly easy roadmap for character development and redemption. But no, she was perfect. Girl power, or whatever. I didnt pay to see TLJ and I'm not going to see Ep IX when it comes out, and I'm not interested in seeing the han solo prequel when Disney releases that either. A charming rogue, smuggler, gun slinger and ace pilot? He's the quintessential space cowboy. If the last movies are any indicator, there is no possible way Disney isnt going to completely butcher it for social justice. Maybe they'll shoehorn in a MeToo lecture, or have Lando be part of BLM.
    24
  3906. Thank you for saying what a lot of us are thinking. My 14 year old son said wouldn't the predator know the red dots was his weapons and know to move?
    24
  3907. I'm a huge fan of the original Tomb Raider games. I grew up playing them on the PS1 and PC. These reboots don't even feel like you're playing Tomb Raider. They should've been named something else. I did, however, really like the Tomb Raider Anniversary game. It felt like you were playing the original Tomb Raider, but with better graphics and updated controls. I think that game struck a happy balance of old vs new. I kind of wish they'd use that game as sort of a template for where to take these games next. I'm all for updated graphics and controls, I think the new games look fantastic, but there just isn't any of that original charm in them. I'd also like newer games to be more puzzle heavy and not just an afterthought. I'd like the combat areas to be an afterthought and not the tomb raiding. I would like to see more games based on the character, but really hope they take inspiration from the older games, and not from what's considered popular now in gaming.
    24
  3908. I'd watch a superhero show about Ruby Rhod.
    24
  3909. My first comment on YouTube ever... Drinker you brought me from the nose bleed watching section to the front of the concert on this one. What you said.... Makes.. Absolutely... Perfect sense and would have been a much better arc all around for Thor. While I liked a lot of aspects of Endgame. I struggle with how his character was portrayed to the point that I almost don't like the movie. Almost. I was cool with the hulk/banner thing to a degree, but still have issues with how dubbed down he became as well. Excellent idea and I only wish we would have seen this version on the screen instead of fat Thor.
    24
  3910. Just seen this, just want to say - bravo drinker for being so brave, not many people could build up a fanbase of harsh critics, then serve them content for them to potentially criticise. I also don’t think people realise how LITTLE money 300k is to create a film. I’m in project management. Films are very complex projects and require a lot of resources. Obviously not 250mil, but also not 300k. The list of liabilities, insurances and rentals is enough to make your head spin. Let alone logistics, crew costs, set costs, costuming etc etc etc. - then look at even just A wage. These are skilled workers who work in production, so while you might not be paying for a year salary, you can expect many thousands for people to just turn up. When assessing the scope and budget, it’s clear you’ve done great with what you have. Plenty of others have offered their thoughts, but I feel most criticisms i’ve read could be addressed with more resources. The accents are iffy at points (many for the english) some acting is a little stiff and feels “youtubish” but I’m genuinely not sure if that’s a fault of editing too -take the guy standing behind the car in the carpark scene. He walks up and then pulls the guy to the car. It might have been more impactful if we cut straight to the slam. As it were the contact felt a little rigged. the music could do with some more character, it feels a tad generic at times. But the concept is otherwise well presented and builds it’s characters well. The risk is people spend alot of time criticising much more expensive products on this channel, so they can’t bring down their comparative expectations. But I think it goes to show how far you pushed the pound. Great job drinker and team - have a whisky!
    24
  3911. I am so glad to finally see some Die Harder love. Usually With a Vengeance comes up as the better sequel, and while it’s a great movie, there’s something special about DH2.
    23
  3912. Just finished watching Nerdrotic’s take on this trailer and now I see this. Aside from that, as much as I enjoy Superman I don’t think this will help Hollyweird the way they think it will. Too many failures as we’ve seen.
    23
  3913. 504 people didn’t watch the video.
    23
  3914. Rotten tomatoes just removed the interest not interest section in the captain marvel section of there webpage. Only option is interest. The rating number was at 27% this morning until they did this.
    23
  3915. I can’t believe people watched that 8 minute trailer and ACTUALLY thought this would be good 😂
    23
  3916. I love how Rian Johnson'd is a verb.
    23
  3917. What I honestly loved about Saw X was how emotional John truly was. Fact he deals with these fake doctors which wasn’t even something we would ever get to see when he was dealing with other test subjects.
    23
  3918. I always love your confident predictions!
    23
  3919. 4:00 The police were about as "useful as a candy-floss condom" The Drinker hits home again.
    23
  3920. Well done dude, this is another great milestone in the Drinker timeline!🍸
    22
  3921. Your ending words were profound and thoughtful. I salute you, sir.
    22
  3922. The Watchmen movie was decent, but I feel like if Watchmen was a trilogy of movies, it would’ve been one of the greatest trilogies of all time.
    22
  3923. My no1 is spoon vs the werewolves, from dog soldiers, just one royal marine with no weapons trying to beat a 7 ft tall werewolf to death with his fists and anything he can find, proper badass way for a character to go.
    22
  3924. Quality vid - I thought Resident Evil film was good... especially compared to some the shit nowadays... I never played the game, so this is all I know... but, you are very correct in what you say... !!! :) Cheers for sharing !!! :)
    22
  3925. Honestly I never intended to watch this show and barely knew it even existed. I'm just here to listen to what the drinker has to say because it's never dull and is always entertaining. Well done sir!
    22
  3926. It takes a special talent to run 3 well known IPs into the ground though...
    22
  3927. SLOW CLAP THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS REVIEW! You have once again done a Hero's job. I personally am in no rush to see this movie, and I don't care if someone drops a spoiler or 3. However, If I am going to get spoilers, I honestly prefer them from your drunken Word-Hole. Excellent and thorough job as always. CHEERS
    22
  3928. When anyone mentions the first Resi, the first thing that enters my mind is those fucking dogs jumping through the window when you enter that narrow corridor early on. man that always shat me up
    21
  3929. Thank you! I felt the same way. I could be wrong,but are all the male kings gone? I blame it on that the writings/material of GRRM’s books ended and the wokeminder HBO writer/execs are only using f,d up leftist ideology to fill it in.
    21
  3930. Saw an advanced screening of this a few weeks ago. Your thoughts are spot on. I was shocked that it had as much drama and seriousness as it did. The "Sonyness" was really heavy handed, and the love plot doesn't really add anything since the real person he is trying to please is his father. Definitely WAY better than I was expecting, which was a shitshow. Sony appears to be leaning on word of mouth for marketing. They have been doing a lot of advanced screenings.
    21
  3931. Nicely done 👏👏👏
    21
  3932. As fast as the eagles coming.
    21
  3933. This show is great. Season 2 had some jump the shark moments like the fight at the end and hawk seemed a little disenguous. But all in all it's a great show.
    21
  3934. Never understood WHY they call her "Lady Thor"... couldn't they come up with one of the norse goddesses? Thos is a name, not a title that can be inherited. Just silly. Plus piggybacking on the male Thor's fame and popularity is partially the reason that comic didn't succeed. In the end, her character is changed into a Valkery, so maybe thats the plan...? Thor gets back his hammer after that. Still, its so forced. Why couldn't they go the He-Man + She-Ra route and make a unique character that can stand on her onw merit?
    21
  3935. I loved it!! Thought it fit Fassbender's natural acting style perfectly. Slow, methodical, intense, and willing to toss in a few emotional twists here and there.
    21
  3936. It took me a long time to realize Die Hard 2 is a perfect Christmas watch, its kinda like the Home Alone of action movies and is must each year
    21
  3937. Oh good A narrative bowel movement to flush with the rest My plumber’s making a fortune clearing out this crap.
    21
  3938. I love this film! Thanks so much for this review.
    20
  3939. youtube should put this in everyone's feed
    20
  3940. Watched the movie on your recommendation. Loved it. I'll watched it again.
    20
  3941. Into Darkness wasn't just a bad Star Trek movie. It set the precedent for Bad Robot Star Trek media as a whole. Even if I ignore the thesis of your entire video, I'd still agree it's a bad movie. I'll try to keep it from becoming a TL:DR: 1. What exactly does this Cold Fusion device do? Yeah, I know it freezes shit, but in what way? Does it just freeze the volcano, which would mean all the gas that's supposed to come out stays under the crust and transfers to the techtonic plates, causing massive earthquakes? Since the ash from the volcano supposedly ends all life on the planet, I'm going to assume the volcano is as big as Olympus Mons. Or does it freeze the core of the planet, which destroys the magnetosphere and thus all life on the planet dies from solar radiation? Eh, fuck science is what this movie is telling me. 2. Even by the logic of violating the Prime Directive, Kirk goes about it in the stupidest way possible. His plan was to steal the scrolls so that he could lead them away from the volcano so Spock can drop the freeze bomb in, but the first thing he does in the movie is shoot the getaway ride that he and Bones planned out, so they have to run on foot. Also, the ship is underwater instead of in orbit because visuals. Which is the key problem with this movie. That stupidity alone makes him unqualified to lead. 3. Kirk's motivations aren't even consistent in this movie. So, after he captures Khan, Kirk is seething mad. He wants revenge or at least put him on trial. But then Khan gives him the coordinates to the secret base. Kirk has absolutely no reason to want to investigate or even call Scotty (on his outdated Nokia flip phone) to investigate for him, but he calls Scotty anyways so that the plot can happen. 4. Shitty death scene is shitty. On a structural level, the death scene fails because it's exactly like Darth Vader's NO! You didn't think you'd be laughing at that point in the movie, but you did. Also, the pacing of the scenes after it fuck the somber tone of the death scene itself. In WoK, it was the falling action moment of the movie after the climax. The tone was slow and somber. In ID, the slow speed suddenly goes fast so that Spock can punch Khan in the face. So, instead of falling action, you get rising tension. It's like getting post-orgasmic tortured on screen.
    20
  3942. This has been more entertaining than actually watching the show
    20
  3943. This is the most honest, accurate review of this movie I've seen so far . . .
    20
  3944. Funnily enough zombie apocalypse fits the time period well, since the series takes place few decades after the japanese invasion which was also a seemingly unstoppable savage bloodthirsty steamroller army that didn't spare anyone. The historical invasion even plays a role to the events of the tv show and how the court became aware of a zombie disease.
    20
  3945. This review is getting more love than the actual film🤣👍
    20
  3946. I binge watched the show in one day. As a big fan of the games, I loved it. The production, acting, directing and comedy.
    20
  3947. I knew nothing going in, but I loved the opening credits which had that unique Fincher look (very much reminding me of Fight club's opening). Then, within a few minutes, I was hooked. The sounds especially immersed you in the moment. And you couldn't be sure of anything he would or would not do. I'll definitely be watching again. Very impressed
    20
  3948. They really are using palpatine's body as a buoy to keep their heads above water.
    20
  3949. Insane production quality and writing. I expected nothing less from the Drinker.
    19
  3950. The Critical Drinker This is by far the greatest video about the failures of star wars ever made. Absolutely brilliant
    19
  3951. The saddest day of my life is that I'm unable to hit the like button more than once. Would that I could hit it until my fingers cramped. My consolation is to pour another cider and give you a big resounding "Cheers".
    19
  3952. The thing with the rabbit with dumb.
    19
  3953. Totally bone. 😉
    19
  3954. 10:58 Drinker just couldn't help that laugh while talking. perfect.
    19
  3955. I loved this movie when I was a kid. Of course back then I had no idea about the production issues and bloated cost. I was a fan of Costner’s and it was a fun movie.

  3956. This show and Farscape were gone before their time and the sad truth is they were a peak in sci-fi that I don't think we're ever gonna get back.
    19
  3957. Shogun is my favorite novel of all time and I love the 80's mini series. But I have yet to watch the 2024 version. I'm working on it. Also, Twisters really deserves more love than it has gotten.
    19
  3958. I'll probably be in the minority here, but, based on the trailer, I'm cautiously optimistic
    18
  3959. Your new style of vids is literal escapism, many thanks.
    18
  3960. Funny I was just thinking about this very thing this morning... damn, I thought I put all this behind me! ;) I completely agree with you on all points, particularly that complete farce of a back story justifying Kylo Ren's betrayal. That moment literally takes a shit on Luke's entire character arc in the original trilogy. When Luke faces Vader, is goaded into giving into hate to defeat him, then realizes what he's done and in doing so finally becomes the master, it's the realization of his entire story. When faced with the greatest evil in the galaxy, he THROWS ASIDE HIS LIGHTSABER! He won't fight anymore and instead works to turn his father from the dark side. He is literally dying and still never reaches for his lightsaber, or resists in any way. So flash forward and we are expected to believe that when faced with his own nephew struggling with the dark side this same person could even consider murdering him in his sleep!?!? Impossible! Luke has shown time and time again that he would sacrifice anything, including himself, to help the people he cares about. In the Last Jedi he was simply dancing to the needs of the plot, and his character was sacrificed to set up whatever bullshit they were trying to set up. Gah!! It would be one thing if they pulled this with some new character that they invented that we weren't already invested in, but to do this to Luke of all characters... ugghh... It's just so heartbreaking that this is the story we're stuck with now :(
    18
  3961. Eyyy thanks Drinker! Glad to hear a happy drunk rant again. o7
    18
  3962. The Critical Drinker never disappoints! ✌
    18
  3963. thank you to this man for putting himself in mental distress to tell us how horrible this was... i tip my hat to you good sir..
    18
  3964. Your review and finale message was SPOT ON..this 11 year old kid from 1977 thanks you sir. Nicely done.... Cool voice.too!
    18
  3965. The problem with making a movie loaded with visual effects is that you need to have the script nailed down VERY early in the process or else you're flushing months of work down the drain when you inevitably realize the plot needs major re-writes.
    18
  3966. For the Batgirl movie it would remember this day as the day the Drinker exposed the hell that was its production. But for the Critical Drinker, it was a Tuesday.
    18
  3967. Good stuff. I'd add that back when all those other movies came out, they didn't beat you over the head with OMG OUR STRONG WOMEN CHARACTERS ARE STRONG WOMEN or anything like that. The creators and marketers simply said, "Here's our new film, please go see it." And, perhaps not coincidentally, the vast majority had no problem with the portrayal of those strong characters
    18
  3968. I was at the premiere in Grand Rapids and I loved it. Can’t wait for the rest of you to see it.
    18
  3969. Tomb Raider is one of those games I replay every year along others like Tenchu and Dino Crisis. I haven't played the new ones simply because it isn't the Lara I know. Tomb Raider's levels and music have always brought me unparalleled wonder and joy. It will always be one of the greats.
    18
  3970. Critical Drinker, the hero EFAP needs
    17
  3971. Hey Drinker! I just wanted to pop in and say it was really awesome getting to meet you and seeing you in person. I hope you had a great Con & Thank you for saying the Line for me, I was so nervous. ❤️ Go Away Now!
    17
  3972. Im glad you enjoyed it! I loved the stage play and personally thought it did an alright job adapting it. Pacing messed me up a little in the beginning though
    17
  3973. Last i was on tomatoe it was 29%
    17
  3974. It certainly changed the star wars franchise forever.
    17
  3975. Thank you! This is the most honest honest review of this game I've seen. Thanks for not just gushing over a game that, at best, is just good. And if it wasn't a Resident Evil game, it would've been great. I think people got too carried away with the new action/adventure style that they didn't realize how much it didn't fit into the world that RE 0-3 had built. I get so chapped when people say it's the best RE game and I'm still salty about how it changed the RE games for so long.
    17
  3976. Agreed massively with one of your critiques specifically - the pointless 'second scenarios'. They should have just left it at 'Leon's playthrough' and 'Clair's playthrough'. I was so disappointed that nothing changed when you reversed the order. Ironically, Zombies are the toughest enemies in the game. I learnt quickly that going for headshots with the pistol was a waste, but I disagree that free aim is pointless. This is where free aim shines. Pistol is for knee capping and dodging, then you get the shotgun to kill all the zombies you need to (ergo why I think Claire is 'hard mode'. No sgotgun, no flamethrower). And the only time i killed lickers was when X was giving it to me and sneaking went out the window. Brilliant game. 0/10 because of Claire's face. If they give Jill the same treatment I'm gonna Self Destruct Capcom hq. Don't mess with perfection lol
    16
  3977. I love the irony of Christian Bale crying out "it's useless now, isn't it?" after literally destroying the Terminator franchise.
    16
  3978. Apparently, some of the plot of the film leaked out. John Connor is apparently dead. I'm guessing the opening of the film is that the T-800 that Arnold portrays showed up soon after the events of Terminator 2 and killed John Connor. Just like that. Also, there is no Skynet this time around. The new bad guys are called Legion. Yeah, I smell another Genisys happening here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPAZbSNRHV0&t=759s
    16
  3979. “Those are just details and details are for losers!” LMFAO
    16
  3980. Let’s go Drinker…. CONCEPT PROVEN… I’m loving this!
    16
  3981. your comparison to McDonald's is so accurate I almost barfed my Oreos...
    16
  3982. The MCU and Star Wars are dead brands. They’re just rotting brands of a ship that is sailing into to the distant sunset.
    16
  3983. Genius!
    16
  3984. Yeah, she resented having to do it. So much that the journalist presented the apologies for her. Anti-males. Identity politics before story telling, go broke. Critics are actually seeing that the movie is not that feministic, yet they are pushing this narrative. I haven't seen the trailer they released last night, but I wouldn't be surprised if they are starting to back from the feminist advertising a bit.
    16
  3985. Embrace Krypto, Drinker!
    16
  3986. I finally gave up on star wars after Boba Fett and Obi Wan. Acolyte was justification that I had made the right decision.
    16
  3987. Can we also note that Dany's fleet is mostly destroyed if not all destroyed from when the Unsullied were sacking Casterly Rock and the Iron Fleet wiped it out. The Unsullied had to spend quite some time to walk back to Dany. How is she transporting all of her troops now??? D&D really did kill this show.
    16
  3988. LOVED this game. Even bought the Director's Cut just for the demo of Resi 2. Don't miss the hunters, though.
    16
  3989. I hate to admit it but I never noticed that particular change in Luke's costumes over the movies... Now I will never be able to not catch that, thank you. 😁😎
    16
  3990. Falcon has no powers. He's just a regular guy. How does he block a punch from Hulk without evaporating?
    16
  3991. YAY! I watched it because of your recommendataion. Absolutely amazing show!
    15
  3992. It’s good to know that the shit storm hits every part of the media, whether it be movies, video games, books, or advertisement. No that’s diversity
    15
  3993. My Gf: "Babe, wake up. Critical drinker dropped a new episode about Acolyte " Me: " Dont you mean Disney just dropped the new acolyte episode?" My Gf: "No! That's not what i meant!"
    15
  3994. I replayed TR1 a few years ago. It was better than I remember, and I had always thought highly of it! You are absolutely correct about the immersive gameplay. The quiet tombs really did feel ancient and secluded.
    15
  3995. Oh, wow, Ella Purnell played in two of the very best series of the modern era. She's was also a voice actor for Jinx in Netflix's Arcane!
    15
  3996. Commander Elrond, lieutenant Guyladriel, has beamed down the Redshirt Elven away team. They are at your disposal to save or not save as you wish.
    15
  3997. It took Thor 3 movies to figure out that he had lightning powers and how to use them but Captain America manages to figure it out on demand...I didn't get it. Fat Thor and Mild Mannered Hulk was just ridiculous, way to make the 2 most powerful Avengers look completely useless. Very disappointing movie.
    15
  3998. This show is great and has the same dark humor as the games. Great acting as well and I can’t wait for S2
    15
  3999. This is looking good!
    15
  4000. Hey Will, Good to see you back with the original theme (although movie this time). Like you, I enjoyed this film for what it was, but was greatly looking forward to the TV series they were developing back in 2015. Such a shame that the networks dropped it. From what I've seen of it, it looked promising although I'm not sure if Millie Brady was the best choice for Ayla. There are some photos of the Clan from the series online here and there and, coupled with the CGI, I reckon it would've been worth watching. I'll send you some pics/links under separate cover. You'll remember when we met her Jean M Auel said that she'd leave the TV/Movie rights options up to her kids so hopefully something will be developed further down the line. As you say, the technology these days has much improved since 1986!
    15
  4001. I JUST WATCHED this movie before this vid came out Most fun I've had in the cinema in a long time

  4003. Got a chance to watch this premiere at teh Grand Rapids Comicon. Very exciting event for those of us in attendance.
    14
  4004. I was one of the people that asked you on twitter to watch it. So glad you finally did. It's an absolute masterpiece IMO. I KNEW you would like it :)
    14
  4005. At least they have most worn about superhero trope in this movie. A SKY BEAM!
    14
  4006. I hope more and more indie films get made. It's about people take back entertainment.
    14
  4007. Great review. CD, you're quite possibly the only person I might trust a review by, these days. <puts 1917 on my list>
    14
  4008. Last time I was this early Drinker was sober.
    14
  4009. THAT IS HORRIFIC… You Still Would Wouldn’t Ya 😉
    14
  4010. There are people that don’t get sarcasm that will think this is serious which is the best thing
    14
  4011. This is a great video! It’s a great critical analysis of recent news and opinions and it’s satyrical enough to make all of us laugh at ourselves for our own foolishness. Few things have the ability to make us view things from the outside of both perspectives and understand both sides. Through that understanding of both sides, comes learning and self-awareness. Bravo! Liking, subscribing, and clicking on the bell now.

  4012. Big dumb monster movies are the kind of movies that's require to turn off the brain and enjoy the heck out of it.
    14
  4013. This segment demonstrates an admirable mixture of earnestness, sarcasm, humor, and persuasiveness. Bravo!
    14
  4014. Break my heart that a company like Lucas Film, that once was the king of all it surveyed, has been reduced to the court jester that can't even get a single laugh. 🤦‍♂ Rest in Peace, Indiana Jones. 😢
    14
  4015. I loved waterworld. Bad press killed it before it ever had a chance. A sequel would be awesome!!
    14
  4016. I was anticipating this. Thank you and keep it up.
    14
  4017. The best way to tell this story would've been to make helm hammerhand the main character and given him a sort of boromir story line. Where he unintentionally starts a war, is almost defeated, and to win it he's offered a magical ring by either saruman or just a cloaked figure, and after losing both sons he puts it on and becomes an almost unstoppable wraith, but at the cost of his soul. Hera could've been a redeeming light that could've brought him back from the brink, but no she had to be the real hero.
    13
  4018. You've hit the nail on this wooden box of predictability Marvel McDonald's flick... nothing special at all and as a cat lover I felt betrayed by the critics.
    13
  4019. One of my favourite games growing up was Alissia Dragoon. Sadly no strong female character to be seen in that game either. I have to admit to still owning that game, shame on me.
    13
  4020. Nice realism with weapons for once. There is potential there for sure, would make an awesome action/spy TV show.
    13
  4021. Can’t believe I’m seeing Ryan Drake on screen. So excited, well done Drinker!
    13
  4022. Thanks for this man, i used to hate this movie, now i can see it for the subversive masterpiece it is. No more hate towards ruin or kkkenedy.
    13
  4023. U just gained a new subsctiber..the part i hated most was when all the people in peacock colors were standing on ledges next to a water fall....i was like-is this for real??
    13
  4024. You rock!
    13
  4025. Critical you have the best movie breakdowns on youtube. I laugh my ass off while learning interesting things about good storytelling.
    13
  4026. I subscribed. Very refreshing honest opinion/critic. Keep up the good work..
    13
  4027. Here is the new Tag line for this movie and all modern media from Hollywood: "Go Woke, Go Broke." keep the shit out of FILMS!
    13
  4028. I was going to write a comment about the superficial focus on hair in a film supposed to be progressive, but I lost interest to the point of not bothering to formulate it coherently.
    12
  4029. I was WAITING for you to weigh in! pops the corn and dives into your review
    12
  4030. Great video! I’d no idea a series had been planned for this a few years ago. Thanks for the info
    12
  4031. I wish I had the money to back a Ryan Drake movie series. Just finished something to die for, loved them all. Cheers, drinker
    12
  4032. Why would an alternate timeline that starts at the time of Kirk's birth, make the Klingons look like that? Sounds like BS to me.
    12
  4033. So because Luke has come to dislike the Jedis, and everything they stood for, and wants no one to find him, he chooses to move to the place where the Jedi's had their origins, and leaves clues as to how to find him. If I didn't know better, I would think that the last Jedi was done by a taletless hack.
    12
  4034. I saw the movie when i was around 15 years old, and its still one of the most influencal and fascinating movies to me personally. While i couldnt fully grasp it at the time, it still had a huge impact on me and always made me appreciate the common man, and grow a distain for the world and system humanity has build. And after rewatching it a few years ago its still a masterpiece. Falling Down was the Joker movie of the past generation, they both essentially cover the same themes and idea of a "normal" man being brought to his breaking point. The movies of course tackle it very differently and each is great in their own ways, i love both a lot. But Falling down is in that aspect to me one of the most realistic and tragic storys ever told, in a modern society, since it could happen to almost everyone. After all, it only takes 1 bad day.
    12
  4035. This is the best review of TLJ I have ever watched. You have captured all the heart, passion and feelings that I as a fan have about this terrible movie. This movie is totally wrong, it cant be undone, it disrespects the essence of Star Wars - Luke Skywalker - its bullsht and we have to live with it. Thank you for making this video.
    12
  4036. thanks. a GREAT recommendation. I watched it through twice.
    11
  4037. I’m filled with diabolical glee when I get notified you’ve uploaded a new video.
    11
  4038. The most impressive part of this movie is how the audience score inflated from 31% Saturday to 63% today
    11
  4039. 2:55 in the seriousness of this show, glad to see you make a “naieve Jon Snow” reference there
    11
  4040. Having read all you novels, I am so looking forward to this. Amazing looking trailer, roll on the full release!
    11
  4041. Great video! Still, I think I'll pass. I'm going to stay home that weekend and binge watch my old DVDs of Buffy The Vampire Slayer.
    11
  4042. Hey! Battle Beyond the Stars was one of the great bad movies of the 80's!!
    11
  4043. I’m glad I quit while I was ahead with this series. I was as disappointed with this series as I was with Earth’s Children. In any case, another great video! ❤️
    11
  4044. It would be great if you reviewed the Tv series 1883 and 1923. They are the prequels to the Yellowstone series. You are a great reviewer who is creative and funny so hear you are Mr drinker 🍻
    11
  4045. Drinker finally covers this one, yay! 🎉
    11
  4046. I posted a couple times in the chat but I'll say it again. For $300k, this is an incredible achievement. Especially when you consider a Hollywood low-budget action movie is 100 times larger. For reference, the first Evil Dead in 1981 had a budget of ~$350k, which is equal to $1.3 million today. And that was just a handful of people in a cabin.
    11
  4047. Great video my drunk friend...
    11
  4048. Sounds like the drinker might have shed a tear or two while watching this. Great review by the way. Probably your best so far. Heartfelt, honest (as always), accurate and insightful.
    10
  4049. I had this very argument with someone on Twitter - they couldn't accept that a vast amount of heat would be transferred into her body and kill her almost instantly.
    10
  4050. One concept: Pre-visualization. Especially if you are going to lean heavily on CG, it's important to plan out how the camera will move, and what the actions will be. But they've gotten so used to just "fixing it in post," that it just destroys the budget with reshoots and SFX bloat, and forces horrible crunch time. But pre-vis would require a clear vision and hard work.
    10
  4051. You guys did a terrific job. I love that, while Frost is tiny, she uses her wits to hold her own in the fight (not "Girl Boss annihilates Huge Man Twice Her Size because plot"). In fact both ladies, Frost and Anja, are EXACTLY how I imagined them in the books (I'm stealing "shitbird", just FYI). I LOVE Dietrich - his wardrobe and swagger were also exactly as I imagined. The lighting and film quality are quite impressive, and the story is fun. I really enjoyed how the villain brought a hammer to a gunfight. There were some small things I took issue with - some of the accents could use some refining. Also, I feel like Ryan Drake needs shorter hair. Reading the books, I never pictured Ryan's hair being so, well, luxurious? But these are small things. For a POC short film created with a day's worth of Disney's catering budget, this is very, very well done. I'm proud to say that I was a donor for this project, and I can't wait for the next one. Bravo! 👏💐🎭

  4054. This movie brings back memories of my childhood and I think it did an decent job of keeping the feminist tone of the book, even with its faults, I really enjoyed this movie. You are spot on with your review, thank you!
    9
  4055. I understand why some people liked this movie, but it was Spiderman fighting Iron Man villains and I'm tired of that. This Mystery man guy was just the Mandarin with Wizard of Oz special effects. It was essentially an Iron Man movie featuring Spiderman.
    9
  4056. Man, I was really losing any interest in the movies nowadays, your recomandations are always very good. You made me regain a little faith in the movie industry. And you also amde it easy for me to avoid trashy movies and watch good ones. I really appreciate what you do. Good job, man.
    9
  4057. I've been gaming since the 1970's, so I've played all classic Tomb Raider games. The original TR & TR2 & even 3 were some of my favorite games. But the formula got a bit stale for me. I was glad when they rebooted the series and I really liked the game, but the sequel was okay and the latest TR game was dull and boring. I don't blame the gameplay, but the overall design of Shadow of the Tomb Raider was its biggest problem. Putting you in a Leftists idea of what makes a South American tribe was beyond stupid, and should be offensive too, as I've been to South America, and its NOT like that in terms of its people. The game just seemed ultra woke & politically correct that it annoyed the heck out of me. I also got tired of having this supposed feminist (Lara Croft) be such a whiner & crybaby. This isn't progressive, its regressive. Shadow of the Tomb Raider reeked of Leftist sjw meddling.
    9
  4058. I’m black and I wasn’t impressed with Black Panther. Ta’challa was boring, lackluster cgi and too much talking. I could go deeper on the story but what’s the point.
    9
  4059. Omg, I was waiting for this moment f***ck yeah

  4060. I know it wouldn’t have done anything but they should’ve gave the shield to Bucky….

  4061. 5:59 OH GOD!!! IT BURNS!!!!!!!!! i love your videos man keep up the good work.

  4062. This is what I call critical thinking drinking. Make a video about the Lord of the Rings movies. I dare you.
    9
  4063. How about a 50 year hibernation of all things Star Trek and Star Wars. Start again after the apocalypse.
    9
  4064. Yeah. I never played. I’ll have to catch up. But your pretty convincing and its a really good review. Glad I found your channel and your a joy to listen to because you make sense and that’s refreshing. That’s all I have for now about this. Did you see HBO’s 2 hour farewell to GoT yet. I’m watching it today. I’ve heard it’s pretty damn good. I’d like you to crack open an Old No. 7 and review it. Kudos to the cast and crew, who, in the final analysis, did an amazing job overall. The writers were shit and you know damn well the actors knew it, but they do have to look after their careers. But the cast and the crew did an amazing job. I’ll go away now.
    9
  4065. There are so many dumb moments in this movie that the one that stands out to me as perhaps the dumbest in the whole movie just always gets lumped into the Canto Bight scene in general. But that scene when BB-8 is shooting the coins at the guard I literally let out a groan and had to look down because I couldn't bear watching such an utterly retarded scene play out. For me, it is the apex of the Disney SWU jumping the shark.
    9
  4066. Naaah, it'll be fyne! - time for some T-shirts with that phrase, matey!
    9
  4067. 5:35 And this is why it was remade and the ending got purposefully changed, we just can't have good stories anymore, it's simply not allowed as nowadays it seems like morale has to get lower by the minute
    9
  4068. Was waiting for Drinker to go hulk mode on this movie LOL, didn't disappoint 🤣

  4069. A Terry Funk and a Father Ted reference, take my thumbs up!

  4070. That was the single most insightful and least cancerous Buzzfeed article I've yet seen. 🔥Absolutely diggin' this recently stumbled upon channel. Thanks from Texas for the quality binging material. CHEERS! 🍻

  4071. A solution to Rey's non-growth as a character could be... her mysterious family who a abandoned her. Who were they? Why did they leave her where they did? Were they afraid of her powers? Were/are they more powerful than Kylo (& Rey), and planning on taking over from him/her? As someone who was abandoned as a kid I know its a horrible thing, very hard to recover from, the pain renewed every time someone leaves you (whether to death or they just leave) or dumps you, or rejects you. Rey should be ultra-sensitive to these issues, and, when she finally meets her family, an easy victim for their machinations. So there. :-)
    9
  4072. Love this channel so brutally true

  4073. I enjoyed the movie and had a good time watching it, but I can definitely appreciate some hilarious humor and some well-written jokes! You got a like from me and also a new sub!
    8
  4074. someone had to say it and thank you!
    8
  4075. Perfectly synthesized the story. If only the editors were allowed to help!! Also, I found your channel this Monday in the aftermath of the GOT finale. I absolutely LOVED your review of The Iron Throne and listened to it daily to get over the disappointment of 8 years of build up. I can’t find that video anywhere! Has it been removed? It was genius and so terribly funny. I hope that you can bring it back - it is missed. Thanks for giving injured GOT fans humor in these dark times. Little did we know that Melisandre’s warning was to the fans - the terror to come was season 8!

  4076. This hurts. Truth hurts. Miss the old days.

  4077. this made me watch crimson tides and man this is one of the most tense movies i've watched in a long ass time

  4078. Bruce Wayne: devotes entire existence to mastering martial arts, stealth, parkour, powerlifting, interrogation, criminology, psychology, computer security, stunt driving, piloting, chemistry, sleuthing, electronics, lockpicking, forensics, deception, the use of multiple strange and highly specialized gadgets, and so on and so forth. Still there are times when he's barely able to survive what the criminal world throws at him. New Batwoman: wastes life being a clueless loser, traumatized by simple things, but becomes a fearless juggernaut of justice the instant she puts on the suit I'm trying to think of a lesson more harmful than, "Dedication, hard work, and preparation are worth less than nothing. You can skip all that and be more powerful than anyone just by wishing." Little kids look up to superheroes, which means they are absorbing this caustic monster-vomit as we speak.

  4079. My heart dropped when I read the title. But then I remembered what day it is. You actually got me. 😂

  4080. I feel like i had a big, enjoyable dinner, and the only thing left are the scraps. I don't care about the scraps. Spider-man is probably the only one i still care about.

  4081. Because you grew up in Ireland, don't know if you got as excited as my wife and I did....when American classic TV shows got THEIR reboots (my wife firmly calls them "revisionist-history propaganda" - and thus, refuses to acknowledge their existence). Hawaii 5-0. Magnum P.I. Star Trek Discovery. It's been a while since we've watched network television, so I forget those shows are around. Until an advertisement promoting the next "hot" episode, and I'm reminded that Hollywood is a stinkhole. I'm becoming a fan of your channel. Excellent and succinct productions.

  4082. Someone wanted me to define sarcasm a few days ago. I pointed them to your Captain Marvel epiphany. They understand now.

  4083. You have been the best thing about Game of Thrones this season. Cheers!

  4084. If reports are to be believed, the budget of the upcoming Dune Part Two is around $120m, which is pretty damn low when one considers its scale and how many effects shots it will have. Oppenheimer's budget was only $100m, and The Creator was even lower at around $80m. It seems there are exceptions to the rule in Hollywood (Nolan, Villeneuve, Edwards and a smattering of others) that know how to trim the fat already on big blockbusters. Others in Hollywood would do well to follow their example.

  4085. This came on the tv the other day so I turned it on but had completely forgot it was on 10 minutes later

  4086. THANK YOU. I watched this movie one time on Blu Ray after a Rocky marathon and you just pointed out every single thing that crossed my mind when watching it. The only thing you missed is that the fight at the end was very...tame, I guess it the word I want to use. Maybe under-choreographed? It wasn't hard hitting, it didn't pump you up, no excitement whatsoever. I like Rocky V better than this movie. I still haven't watched Creed 2

  4087. 28 days later and 28 weeks later are both my favourite zombie movies that focus on how the survivors cope with apocalypse happens around them. They better nkt screw this up

  4088. Thank you Critical Drinker. I was lost, but now I see the light! I just needed to give myself to a higher and divine power and believe. Thanks Disney, amen! Now, I will walk the earth to preach upon this holy and blessed movie, while spending any given minute to seek perdition of those I deemed delusional and cognitively unstable.

  4089. Nice review, good to see a review of this film. I agree it's quite a mixed bag, and yeah, I don't know how they could have made the sequels back in the 80s, especially with the woolly mammoth and rhinoceros being made without CGI. But a new adaptation, that we can only hope for.....

  4090. The worst thing that ever happened to fiction is the concept of deconstruction. Deconstructing fiction is just pointing at a popular story and saying "That's not realistic!" No shit Sherlock, a realistic story wouldn't be exiting, dramatic or funny. Luke Skywalker is a reconstruction of ancient tropes being reworked for a modern audience, so when he's deconstructed we are left with a nothing story (The Last Jedi).
    8
  4091. The Drinker enjoying something is as rare as the halo show trying to keep master chiefs helmet on. So glad the fallout tv show is actually good

  4092. They could have fixed Ezra Miller's running form, and they didn't.

  4094. Erik Swiger I actually did that while working on a very complex problem on the MRI machine I was installing. My colleague, Mark, looked at me and asked where I came up with that. I said it was my new favorite phrase from the Critical Drinker. Next day, HE said it while changing out a circuit board. It really was hilarious. The Drinkers influence is spreading throughout the world. 😂😂

  4095. Great show so far. Really enjoyed it.Farrell is phenomenal.

  4096. Thanks for all your awesome & honest reviews
    7
  4097. it's at 30% now. The question is: Will that matter? If it doesn't correlate to box office receipts then it doesn't matter. Very interested to see how it plays out.
    7
  4098. I enjoyed the movie and was familiar with the character of Black Panther from his original appearance in Marvel comics and the first run of comics. My biggest disappointment was the depiction of the capital city of Wakanda. It was a mish-mash of urban overlays and said nothing of the culture or evolution of the Wakanda people. A Nordic European village looks different than a temple in India. The view of the city just came across as lazy and thick, someplace you would move from instead of going to.
    7
  4099. Yo dawg. Thanks. I agree I think HBO would have done really well. But,it would do well to leave identity politics out of it. As you already know the Earth's Children saga is fertile ground for that shit.
    7
  4100. This looks badass as hell!!! I hope this does well and you can do a full length feature, bravo brother!
    7
  4101. couldn't even remember it, that is how forgettable it was what made the originals so good was the eeriness and the low ammo, being forced to use your knife, gunning down hoards of people with automatic weapons goes against the whole game and becomes boring very quick
    7
  4102. One of the best shows/miniseries I've seen this year. All the cast, especially Bruce Greenwood and Carla Gugino, knocked it out of the park with this one. Can't wait to see Flanagan's next projects.
    7
  4103. There was also an HBO series of the same name, which had Danny 'I am the doughnut' MacBride in it, which seems more likely the reference he was going for. Though I do like the mental image of Xenomorph and the Bandit. <Cut to the firebird jumping a creek, followed by a popomobile nose diving into it, cut to a Xeno in a Sherrifs hat hitting the steery wheel in frustration. Insert Reynolds laugh.>

  4104. Your sarcasm is better than that damn movie. Thank you for this, buddy. You just earned yourself a new subscriber. Keep up the honest outstanding work! 😎👍🏾

  4105. It was surprising when I watched the trailer. I was like "how is this a good looking trailer from Hollywood in 2024?" Look's excellent.
    7
  4106. Well said sir! May I ask if there was anything in this movie that you did like? (Also I fully agree with you on your Stalin point)
    7
  4107. Collab with James Patterson...bet that was cool. Nice Author pic, btw 😉

  4108. Your accent alone makes your videos worthwhile.

  4109. i really hated Captain Ryan for killing the dog I wanted him to die a horrible death

  4110. This review is the only thing I will ever see of this movie. Even torrenting it won’t be worth it.
    7
  4111. Bravo Drinker, bravo 👏👏👏 Rogue Elements, bring it on 💪💪💪
    7
  4112. Mark Hamill should’ve completely refused to do this script..but he didn’t. He’s complicit in Luke Skywalers character assassination.
    7
  4113. Thanks! Man, I know that I am but one of your 2 million + fans, but thanks for being a voice that says the things that need to be heard this day and age…. It seems like common sense is no longer common …. So keep on brother! People need to hear messages like yours… stay true!!!

  4114. HAHA

  4115. When Han Solo dies, Rey gets a sympathy hug from Leia. Chewbacca gets ignored. That's when I realized that Star Wars is dead and is never coming back.

  4116. Those two look like the secret service female agents struggling with evacuating trump to his car. One even barely holstered her gun after two attempts.

  4117. Mate, you're awesome, love your work, love what you do, great admiration for what you're doing. Short of sending you money, I've subscribed to your channel, something I should have done a long time ago. Also do your stories come in audio, I'd definitely give them a read, or a listen. Keep up the good work you bloody legend. 😁👍❤️

  4118. This is brilliant. You just gained a subscriber. Well done CD!👍

  4119. This review is better than the actual show
    6
  4120. I admit it. Took me a while to realize this was ironic.😂
    6
  4121. Always waiting to watch your’s and Pitch Meetings videos instead of the actual movie.
    6
  4122. Finally an honest review! I was starting to think that the whole world had gone insane. I did not like this movie at all even though I was looking forward to it. But everyone I know, critics and movie awards treat this movie like it's the second coming of Christ. Is like everyone is afraid to point out the movies many, MANY flaws. People even wanted it to win Oscar for best movie of the year... Black Panther is not even in the top 5 of best Marvel Studios movies, let alone deserving of an Oscar for best movie. Get the fuck out of here!
    6
  4123. My Dad was a huge Bond fan, so I started watching as a lad with the One True Bond, Sean Connery. Neither my Dad nor I were ever sold on Roger Moore. I just never could buy his Bond as a stone cold killer if he needed to be, which you always felt was just below the suaver surface with Connery. I was happy, Drinker, that you put Brosnan second. I always thought he was the perfect Bond after Connery. Indeed, his Remington Steele was him playing a man playing Bond. As someone else pointed out, his Thomas Crowne shows how he could have played an older Bond. Not as physical but still sharp and able to use his wits to outsmart his opponents in an entertaining way. I thought Dalton was good, but I definitely agree he lacked the “twinkle in the eye”: that Bond needs so he’s just not another spy/assassin. That quickness with a quip or comeback is part of what made us all want to be Bond. We wanted to be that suave and sophisticated. Lanzenby’s Bond stuck with me perhaps the longest, but that was I think more for the supporting cast and the story than Lazenby’s portrayal. Finally, I never quite bought into Daniel Craig. He seemed too old to be as unsure and hesitant as his first picture as Bond, and found myself having trouble really remembering his movies after they were done. I think they tried to hard to be like Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight and ground the character must more in reality, when it is the fantasy in part that make Bond Bond. So other than maybe putting Dalton ahead of Moore, far be it from me to disagree with the Drinker.

  4124. 9:46. That 0.25 second clip of the dishwasher was more brilliant and original than the entire output of Hollywood this year.
    6
  4125. THANK GOD, IT'S OVER
    6
  4126. Drinker, you summed up all of my thoughts I had when I saw this film, and you added a few more things I hadn’t pondered which caused me to appreciate this film even more. Thanks for that and for all you do… and I promise I won’t try to kill you.
    6
  4127. Thank You Critical Drinker , I'm on second episode and got hooked , that show is different in a very good way . Please do more recommendation videos in the future cause You Sir have a good taste . Edit: We need to send this video to Amazon , this man deserves a fat check for this free advertisement . The Netfix superheroe shows are for toddlers compering to this one .

  4128. I saw the trailer for The Marvels while watching football last Sunday and laughed so hard I almost spit my beer out
    6
  4129. I’m so glad we were all right about it sucking. Surprised the modern critics didn’t like it which makes this all the more satisfying.
    6
  4130. I agree that it would have been more distracting to listen to the actors attempting goofy accents. They don't have to sound Russian - but they certainly look Russian! Granted, I wasn't alive at that time, but "Chernobyl" looks exactly like the Soviet films did. And as always, I could spot something in one of the apartments that I used to have - the same wallpaper. That's always the case with Soviet movies - we all used to have the same things, so you can always find something on screen that you used to have. So "Chernobyl" did an A+ job recreating the time period, as well as tell a compelling, horrifying and incredibly moving story. It's not easy viewing, but it's worth it!
    6
  4131. I did actually go and see this in the cinema and I left the cinema thinking, I've just wasted 2 hours watching that!! I felt the ending especially was awful, as there was no sense of peril. Ronan showed up, fired a load of missiles and CM just blew them all up in one go. I do think that people have lost the art of writing good screenplays, as there are quite a lot of modern films I just cannot get excited about, but this to me had to be one of the blandest. Marvel/Disney seem to have developed a trope of we're outnumbered - lets get some mcguffin in to save the day unexpectedly with no effort whatsoever. In Last Jedi it was Ghost Luke, in this it was Goose. I'm sure people will find other examples to quote. I am going to watch Avengers Endgame - but I'm not going in with high expectations.

  4132. Love me some Claudia Black in Farscape

  4133. Very nice video.

  4134. I watched Creed and agree with everything you said. I found Adonis very unlikable. Mostly due to terrible writing and directing. He seemed to shift in personality and motivation drasticly and often to the point where the character seemed emotionally and mentally unstable. He also reads as very dishonest and manipulative. I had and have no real interest in Creed 2.
    5
  4135. Best video on this season yet. Well explained. Entertaining. Great points. Yes.

  4136. Holland ? triggered It's Netherlands, Holland is only 2 provinces in the United Kingdoms of the Netherlands you brain-dead Scot that owes his allegiances to Edward the 3rd, you're rightful Dutch king! Don't make us sail down the Thames again.
    5
  4137. Darth Vader - big scary bastard that kills without a second thought. Kylo Ren - the toddler down the sweet aisle whose mum just said no.
    5
  4138. It's a subtly funny, lean, throwback genre piece made by the expertly precise David Fincher once again elevating a decent, not particularly special script with his trademark auteur precision. I enjoyed a lot.

  4139. Nice review.

  4140. I love your channel man spot on as always 😂😂
    5
  4141. This is the kind of cinematic kino people like Stuckmann wishes they could hold up and have people revere them for! Absolute banger of a trailer, Drinker! This could very well fit onto any big budget movie theater trailer block! I'm proud to have had the chance to back it with everyone else who did, can't wait to see the whole thing proper!
    5
  4142. This is gonna be a train wreck in real time... again 😂
    5
  4143. ¡Gracias!
    5
  4144. Do not worry Drinker, we will always have Star Wars to fall back on...oh...well at least there's Terminator...or maybe not...how about Star Trek...actually forget that...i will just watch Indiana Jones...wait nah, it'll be fine...
    5
  4145. Excellent drunken analysis! I agree with everything said in this video. And it's why that, even though I still somewhat enjoy the show, I'm not enthusiastic about it, and I make sure H.B.O. gets Z.E.R.O. of my money! 😉
    5
  4146. Thanks!
    5
  4147. I thought Creed was alright but it's hard to disagree with some of the points raised here. In the original films Rocky had nothing to lose and everything to fight for, Adonis on the other hand even if he loses the fight he's still a well off successful business executive and the heir to his fathers fortune so... where's his stakes and reason for wanting to fight? For me unsurprisingly Stallone was the best and most watchable part of this, that Golden Globe was well earned. I didn't really care that much for Creed or his story.

  4148. As Andre from midnights edge rightfully said, this is the Asian black panther, complete with a Chinese wakanda (ta lao), Asian panther God(dragon) and Asian vibranium (dragon scales).

  4149. Great audio quality! Keep up the great content
    5
  4150. Nicely done. I remember seeing this one in the theater back in high school. Never confirmed this, but I always assumed that Bullock's character was named "Lenina Huxley" as an allusion to Aldous Huxley, whose dystopian novel Brave New World featured a similar female character named "Lena." The slight change in her first name may also have been a sly allusion to Vladimir Lenin as well. (Triumphant-yet-clever 1990s anti-communism was the best kind of anti-communism.)

  4153. What was well and truly devastating to a longtime fan like myself (I was 13 in 1977) was all the zombies cheering like maniacs at the Chicago Star Wars Celebration last week. Some people will cheer for anything, and are apparently devoid of any ability to think critically. Disney Star Wars is in a crisis, and stroking Kathleen Kennedy's ego won't help.
    4
  4154. Resident Evil 5 was called racist before anyone even played it. Ignore the fact that Sheva Alomar is a phenomenal character and the true bad guys are blonde haired white people... "Oh, but you shoot zombified Africans in the head!" You shoot zombified Spanish people in RE4 (or las plagas... whatever infection). People can cherry pick information and make up their own narrative. Well, at least we're past the days of people blaming video games for real life violence.... oh, nevermind...

  4155. ive played many tomb raider games, none captured the magic of the original, even 2 which was a great effort, didnt do it for me like the first one did

  4162. Rorschach in comic: man with a brutal upbringing who saw the evil humans were capable of and hardened as a result. Appreciates friendship with night owl but can’t show it properly because emotionally crippled. Never claims to be racist, never shown to hate someone based on their skin colour. Tv series: white supremacy symbol

  4163. That was a film I thought it was a pop group?

  4164. I watched it already with my wife. It was a refreshing show with good actors and a good script. We loved it. And it's one of those shows you don't need a follow up or a next season. It's fantastic as it is.

  4165. I'd rather go to the park in Chernobyl, tbh...😅

  4167. I can think of way better actual heroes, Sith, and dark Jedi that are way more powerful than this SJW character who got every ability handed to her who were actually trained and lost but became these dangerous force users. Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker, Emperor Palpatine, Count Dooku, Kylo freaking Ren because he has a actual backstory to why he turned to the dark side, Qui-Gonn Jin, Darth Malak, StarKiller because he was actually trained by Darth Vader and went from hell to get to where he is even as a clone who retains the memories of the original, Darth Maul, Darth Plagus who can BRING BACK THE DEAD, Shaak Ti, Master Rahm Kota, and hell even General Grievous is even stronger and smarter...and he's not even a force user, he's a cyborg that's mostly more machine than alien
    4
  4168. There is only one possible plot development that has any hope of retrieving this trilogy from oblivion. That is if Rey turns out to be some kind of constantly renewed clone who was purposely developed to be infused with all the memories and knowledge of previous Jedi, and only needs a certain word or psychological stimulus to regain them and so give access to them for herself and others, like some kind of biological back up device. A kind of cross between the Duncan Idaho ghola and the Reverend Mothers of the 'Dune' science fiction books. It wouldn't be the first time that SW has ripped off ideas from that series. This first occurred to me when Rey's lineage became such an issue, and was comfirmed when she looked into the cavern mirror on Luke's island after asking about her parents and a string of Reys appeared. This would explain a few things, like her Mary Sue abilities and how Luke didn't seem surprised by her appearance, and the precedence of large scale cloning being already established. It would also dash Kylo's denigration of her parents, because even if her original parents were 'nobodies' that wouldn't detract from her own significance. So you heard it here first. They could also reveal Jar Jar Binks as the ultimate master manipulator Sith Lord of the entire series, which would just be completely epic, but others have already put this forward before. Of course, this all relies on Disney actually having good science fiction ideas for the story. So I highly doubt that my above scenario will eventuate. R.I.P. Star Wars.

  4169. For the meager budget you had for this, good fucking job! Really hope this gets picked up somewhere.

  4170. tnx 4 informing us mate. i was looking to find the movie when i saw the imdb page

  4171. Lol just skip the entire movie and watch the last 10 min....
    4
  4172. Dude you literally had me about to cry 😭 You were the first movie critic I ever found on YouTube, you taught me to be critical of movies and media, you validated my dissatisfaction with current day Hollywood with your video “what is wrong with modern day villains” or whatever it was titled. I remember watching it for the first time like it was yesterday. Jesus what a prank, frick you and thank you lol
    4
  4173. I'll watch as many of these as you make. Good job, Drinker!
    4
  4174. Thank you for this fair and balanced critique.
    4
  4175. I wish they'd do another game in this same style, tank controls and all. I especially love all of the various camera angles, instead of the fixed view of a title like RE 7. I had both the PlayStation original and the GameCube version and I've got to say that the latter version is just stunning. The prerendered backgrounds allow them to pack a ton of detail in. The fixed camera angles are a side effect of that and I think developers feel like it's a limitation, but I always thought it was a strength. It gives the game a movie like quality that no first person game can match.

  4176. Nothing will replace Ricardo Montebhan as KHAN.

  4177. You made this a week b4 season 8 e3 lmao. Aris killes the night king and Jon didn't know or do nothing, Hahaha. During the dying the hound couldn't fight until he saw aria, no man did anything of importance either. Even the little Bear killed a giant that was killing all the men. Make another brother! Lol

  4179. I had one friend who kept saying that Rogue One was a good movie and that it was the only good movie Disney Star Wars has. I asked him to name one character from the movie. He couldn't.

  4180. Really good stuff, Drinker. I am impressed by the entire production. Good work.

  4181. Hilarious man. I couldn't stop laughing. We relate to her through her actions...and her charactaa, truley progressive.
    3
  4182. I came away cheated and deflated. My exact same thought. Couldn't agree more in any way possible. Luckily, I skipped the last episode and thus the lame ending.
    3
  4183. Ruin Johnson completely killed any excitement I had for this franchise. I figured luke would have some great plan for leaving the map behind to find him, like starting a new Jedi order, I thought the resistance would amass an epic army and battle the new order in huge battles a la clone wars/empire strikes back, I thought there would be some great trial Rey would have to face to contrast how Rey magically knew how to fly space ships and beat Sith lords. ANY explanation.. nope none of that. Nothing mattered in the force awakens, the resistance were still on the run, Rey can train herself, snoke didn't matter, luke dies hiding on the same island they found him on. I don't give a shit about this terrible "fan" fiction masquerading as a sequel trilogy.
    3
  4184. Man, you are spot on. I've always been a Star Trek fan due to it being smart and thought-provoking. This dumbed down version is exactly what is wrong with new films today. They go more for a simplified plot with arrogant, teenage-like characters so that they could appeal to younger audience and earn more money, and with that, they spoil the original's profoundness. And while the original is a classic today, this shit of a film has already been forgotten. You deserve a sub and keep up the good work.
    3
  4185. Thanks!

  4190. This game was the equivalent of today's Naughty Dog games. You simply HAD TO like it just because it was a Final Fantasy game. But it was just horrible. The story was nonsensical on multiple levels, full of gigantic plot holes and deus ex machina moments, and the characters were insanely stupid and unlikable. The late 90s was that time when that god-awful emo trend was mostly active, and you could really see it in this game. The gameplay was tedius, unenjoyable and annoying, basically all the things that make RPGs good, were filtered out or scaled down. On the contrary, FF8 had amazing music and some really good visuals, qualities that were ultimately wasted in this shitshow of a game. But yeah, some people like the Twilight movies, why would some not like FF8 too?
    3
  4191. Utterly perfect review. Thank you. Have a Stolie or three on me. Cheers, ole Blackheart. I’ll go away now.

  4192. What happens if you keep drinking the panther juice continuously without stopping? Do your powers keep turning on and off?
    3
  4193. You can see the MCU starting to flounder creatively by Civil War. Spider-Man as a kid hyped up on orange juice? Heck, Feige (no idea why everyone praises him. He says nothing of note on any interview) deliberately tried to damage BvS sales by releasing it at the same time. Who suffers? The fans. Black Panther was ok. Captain Marvel is flat out BAD. Larson is BAD. Look at End Game. It wasn't that good. Too many plot holes. Too many questions unanswered. No Red Skull/ Cap scene. Look at the deus ex machina at the third act. How Marvel just decimates Thanos's ship. The MCU is beginning to falter.
    3
  4194. The sarcasm is awesome!! Thank you so much for the truth!!

  4195. I discovered The Drinker this year while sitting around getting over the "UNSPECIFIED VIRUS OF UNKNOWN ORIGIN" and in those shitty weeks of feeling like a walking corpse I found myself watching through your feed and enjoying every bit of it. Cheers from the states. Keep the videos coming, jerk. Next round is on me.
    3
  4196. Wow Drinker you nailed it, I enjoyed playing the the 2 new TR but your so right they are very empty and forgettable. Lara has no character,swag,really creative ideas any more. Half way in i forgot she was Lara and thought she might be John Rambo.Yes a quality game overall but a terrible representation of what Lara is suppose to be.
    3
  4197. Just wanted to say that after the first 3 Ryan Drake books I'm definitely hooked in your world. Keep up the great work!
    3
  4198. "bored out of my mind with Shadow of the Tomb Raider" That's a light way of putting it. The game's a fucking slog, and it tries harder to tell you about everything than let you actually play it.

  4199. Hey man Arnie may be old and saggy but he took a drop kick by some crazy South African dude the other day, who was screaming I want a Lamborghini as the police dragged him away 🤪

  4211. Soooooo going back and watching all your amazing vids this one actually made me a little emotional then angry as I felt this way at midnight on opening night which is a tradition for me and some friends! We've seen every film in the theater and are in our 40's and I was completely gutted by this film and it has actually killed a part of me. Amazing work my friend!! Thank you!

  4212. Tifa and Aerith are still some of the best female characters to this day. And you can not change my mind on that

  4213. Great job mate. The gunplay was very spot on. Room for improvement still, but considering the budget you were working with this is a work of art.
    3
  4214. It all should've ended with Rocky Balboa. That was the 2nd best film in the franchise. I'm so glad someone had the balls to go up against this SJW cash grab of a film and deconstruct it. Now I know why I really don't like these new movies... why I can't seem to root for Creed. You really spelled it all out. This movie really did piss all over Apollo and Rocky's legacies.
    3
  4215. This was terrific! Well acted, well lit, well shot, tight story well written, and no trace of preachy identity politics bullcrap anywhere. If y’all make a TV series out of this I’m all in! This could be the new Mission Impossible. Great job, kudos to everyone involved!

  4216. I'm just happy, that there is someone who knows about Farscape. When i'm talking with others about sci-fi, they are like: - Star Trek is the best! - Didn't really watch. - Right. Star Wars rocks! - Can't tell i'm a die hard fan. - Stargate? - Meh. - But you've said that you love sci-fi series! - Yes. Farscape. - Say what now? So thank you The Critical Drinker !

  4221. I think most modern movies are overrated. The best movies are from the past decades. Modern movies have lost the magic that older movies have.

  4222. Pretty good flick, man. I hope you can make many more.

  4223. Props for using Rimmer in a dress with Mr.Flibble. A much more believable take on space-travel than this movie!

  4224. Man you totally forgot to comment on Aryas new teleportation jutsu. And the Night Kings perfect sensory perception and reflexes when Arya teleports behind the Night Kings back (and he can not see her), that strangely fail him while he follows the knife with his eyes while its falling through the air (within reach).

  4225. Absolutely love this series you made the small and big details you tell is awsome

  4226. New Tomb Raider is trash you say? Nahh, it'll be fine.
    3
  4227. I'm just happy we're getting a different vibe for an MCU movie for once. It looks like it's not ashamed to be a comic book movie and I like that

  4228. Thanks for coming on EFAP to chat about Star Wars! It was a lot of fun listening to you, and I hope you come back onto the podcast soon!

  4231. Keep in mind, folks: what we're seeing in movies and on streaming is the cultural zeitgeist on a 2-3 year delay. Studios know what's popular right now, you bet your ass, but they have to release these craptastic films or suffer a complete, total 100% loss on them, so 10% on something is better than 0% on nothing. This makes me wonder if Hollywood needs to stop with these bloated, over-budgeted films that take years to produce. Maybe they should just stick to making small, low-budget flicks for awhile that they can pump out in six months. A little palate cleanser for all the shite they've made. Unfortunately, it's likely the people making these films are the primary roadblock to the studios' path back to profitability. It may make more sense to fire entire production companies and shut down studios to reform new businesses without the people making these films, but that's going to lead to massive industry layoffs and severe industry disruption. Well, I guess it sucks to suck, but it has to be done. Cancer must be eradicated. Also, my paid comment wouldn't go through with specific words I wanted to use. Make of that what you will, and consider the Community Guidelines I'm following.

  4232. Rian Johnson’s head is the new Death Star. Stealthier and more portable than ever before, he simultaneously kills both rebels and enthusiasm for the movies with his laser-brain.

  4236. Galadriel is a character easy to dismiss and she's not even a pale shadow of Cate Blanchett. Notwithstanding the passage of time, the Galadriels do not seem to be the same person. The younger Galadriel seems to be pissed all too often-- and she's already old, right? Where is the maturity of her years? This show has a lot of problems-- it's better than Ahsoka. The cultural references are clumsy and forced. Where Gandalf says “did you just assume my gender!?” is laughable as if there was offense committed that required comment in that moment. I'm male and I'm so offended you assumed I was male? Get real.

  4240. Old Lara is the kind of bitchy asshole that I find endearing. Her old motivations made her a morally grey character but the story never really dwelled on it, which was great. She was selfish & charming in a similar fashion to characters like Bronn and Han Solo. I liked her explicitly because of her flaws, the same goes for other iconic game characters like Geralt and Kratos. They whitewashed the fuck out of her personality when they rebooted with Legend and then they made it even worse when they rebooted again in 2013. lol
    2
  4241. Characters with no huge background storys are simply the best for action and adventure games. Who cares about the childhood and struggles in the past when they can do backflips und jumps as well as shooting in motion like Lara Croft or Gordon Freeman for example? They just do what they have to do in various situations and that's why they are badass. They are mostly defined by their actions and some lines at dialoges - okay, Freeman not so much at dialoges. By playing them you can imagine for yourself how they become so awesome and that keeps some mystery and a cool atmosphere around them. By explaining their past and making up some official storys you simply destroy that mystery as well as the coolness when it's poor developed. This happened with Lara Croft and with Han Solo. I didn't want a movie about Solo's past. These cool action heroes who are smart as well have to be leaved alone. Just don't touch them. They are 100% developed. The authors of these characters had something in mind when they created them. I can't stand that endless sqeezing of popular characters until nothing is left but a broken shell or an empty shadow which is thrown away because nobody likes it anymore for what it has become.

  4242. At the 2.25 mark we see her fire a M72 SRAAW (Short-Range Anti-Armour Weapon) 66mm rocket. So notice there is no rocket in the tube, she swings the tube up with no caps on it so how is it the projectile doesn't fall out? She under arm swings it but shoulder mount fires it. Also the aiming sights haven't popped up as they do when the tube is expanded. She was driving the car with it slung over her shoulder and when she gets out of the car it's behind her back. Makes for comfortable driving! In the army I fired many 66mm SRAAW and this bullshit movie making just pisses me off.

  4254. Bravo Drinker. Well done. This was pretty damn good

  4255. Old Star Trek was slow and thoughtful sci-fi, and that's what the old fans wanted. But they turned new Star Trek into dumb action schlock to appeal to the TikTok generation— the ones who have a notoriously short attention span. They alienated the old fans in favor of new fans who were never going to stick around, who would leave the moment the next big thing came out. And it's too late to get the old fans back. Now Star Trek has no one.

  4256. So the football in The Room actually represents Lisa. She is passed around from person to person; but nobody who touches the football (Lisa) is mentally strong. Just like a football can be deflated. Tommy = Tom Brady.

  4260. Absolutely excellent, honest and perfect summary. Thank you Drinker for another fantastic vid. May your powers of the spoken word never dimish, Good Sir. PS: Could you be persuaded to do a (drunken...) review of Game of Thrones' "Battle of Winterfell".....I'd personally LOVE to hear your take on it in light of your recent (also excellent) synopsis. CHEERS

  4261. Wait, what? I could be wrong but isn't MJ a redhead? Fuck off movie.
    2
  4262. This series (and STD for that matter) has turned Star Trek from a positive show with good messages without sounding like a lecture, into a salty, negativity dominated, lecturing shit-fest. I really had high hopes for this one and again these hopes have be squashed. I'm really getting to the point where I don't feel like checking out new ST movies or series at all anymore.
    2
  4263. I’m high as hell rn and I thought that when you were rewriting the movie that it was the summery of the actual movie, so I got genuinely interested in it and went to watch it (I’ve not watched a single marvel movie since avengers) only to be extremely confused and disappointed when what was actually in the movie was playing. I only just realized my mistake. Fuck

  4264. Well done, Will. Rogue Elements is a first rate Action Thriller. Ryan Drake is ...the Critical Operator.

  4269. Nice review. Your subs are way too low. Keep it up. Captain Cheese is no hero and neither is REEEEEEEEE Larson.

  4270. The sad reality is that Tomb Raider was the inspiration behind games like Uncharted... And NOW, they’re ripping off the games they inspired, how fucked is that? And what’s worse is that Naughty Dog made a better “Lara Croft” with Chloe, than ANY Tomb Raider ever has. It’s like they understood the character better than the people who created Lara.

  4271. Until society realizes that all humans are retards, things will always be bad. Yeah, even the ones whining about their injustices are unjust to those not suffering from the same injustices. So what. This is the human race. Let's just make freakin videogames and have fun.
    2
  4272. So... Did the dumpster fire that is now Hollywood produce The Critical Drinker, or, did The Critical Drinker just notice what has always (30+ years) been the case in Hollywood?
    2
  4273. fucking awesome mate! proves that good stuff can be made without "the message" and the guys and girls can both be badasses without detracting from each other

  4282. Fantastic. And on a fraction of a budget that Hollywood would've used

  4286. Thank You for setting me straight. I now too have seen the error in my thinking and will forever appreciate all the intricacies of this deep film.

  4287. The really funny part is that they have hacked off more and more of it and now I honestly don't know how long it is now!

  4299. Your sarcasm is what gets me through the day sometimes. That and your amazing sound quality.

  4300. Your assessment of Captain Marvel is pretty much spot on. I'm not sure why some people enjoyed this movie. Maybe they're just easy to please. I keep asking myself if there was anything about the movie that I did like. I guess the only part I liked was that we were able to finally see the Skrulls. Oh, and I liked the very beginning. No, not the beginning of the movie. The VERY beginning where they did their Marvel intro except this time it was only Stan Lee. That was a nice touch.
    2
  4301. The last well written villain on screen to me was Ozymasdias from Watchmen. The villain who actually saved the world.
    2
  4302. I like the movie, and thumbs up for your review with the analysis and perspective. Aye this movie dwarves so much compares to Rocky.
    2
  4303. Nuance is important in art. They were worried the satire was being lost and just turned it up to 11. You lose all the subtleties

  4310. Hey here's an idea: Climactic end battle lasts for more than one episode, the tide of the battle going back and forth as reinforcements arrive from different corners of the continent over a span of 4 episodes and multiple days as the siege of winterfell drags on, westeros truly uniting to try and stop this threat. But nah, Arya shanks the night king after Jon and Danny waste 99% of their forces away in like the span of 30 minutes, the remaining 1% miraculously surviving getting gangbanged by endless wights for the hour that's left. We didn't have to unite after all guys, false alarm, let's go back to political backstabbing end petty squabbles, Cercei's the final boss. Fuck this
    2
  4311. Ooh man, that intro!!! I love you!
    2
  4312. Your B roll better than TLJ
    2
  4313. I subbed cuz of this. Awesome commentary and agree with everything you said even how you broke down the old t 2 vs the one now.
    2
  4314. The jokes in the first film were used to show that the protagonists were badasses who weren't worried at all by facing an entire guerilla force. Their change in demeanor to serious and even terrified helps show the audience how incredibly serious the threat is. Nowadays, everyone has to joke all the time, because Avengers did it.
    2
  4315. Ah! The vast nostalgia! Loved the old games! The second one especially. Thank you for playing the theme! Still to this day the best game theme ever composed! What made Lara so special as an action character & adventurer was, just as you say, she was sassy & from second one already fully evolved into what we are about to play & get to know her as. And what she is could be described as a lovely yet bold mix of Indiana Jones, Rambo & James Bond, since she raided tombs, killed anyone in her way that deserves to die & she kills just as efficiently as any action hero & sometimes her missions ends up saving the world as well. The exotic part of her was that she was a woman, having the same effect as Ripley got over the Alien franchise = a woman does what a man can do but without ever stopping being a woman & it's fully believable. And as a woman myself I loved playing Lara, it was a door into the gaming world for me. But I also loved the simple detail that Lara is English & therefor had the wonderful British accent. I'm also very glad you mentioned the atmosphere! Yes, most of the time it was more or less silent, with just ambient background noise & sound effects to accompany you & Lara through the tombs. But that was the wisest choice imaginable! It felt, even with the heavy pixels, as if you were in those tombs & caves because the sound brought you there & it was meant to have been untouched & not disturbed for hundreds & sometimes thousands of years. Sound is 50% of the experience as George Lucas once said & that is absolutely true. When the music score does show up you do react & react fondly to it. But the silence, or background noise is so immersive you don't see it as silence. Once you learn the controls & exactly how & most of all WHEN to make jumps it gets a lot easier. Once you get the hang of it it's even very emotionally rewarding once you pull it off in quite complex moves sometimes. Yet it never stops being challenging. Some of the hardest things are when you're swimming under water. Unless you beforehand know exactly where to go you will drown & that takes several tries until you memories the map. Tomb Raider, you could perhaps argue, stole Atlantis from Indiana Jones, maybe that was why he in his 4th film looked for aliens instead. Lara, for sure, took the better straw there. In the first series of games, besides Lara herself, the games had very good stories & strong co-characters & what is better than a fun game with a great story!? Makes the older games that much replayable. Her much weaker & vulnerable attitude in the latest games as well as the bad movie of last year pretty much destroys her character as much as Ruin Johnson turned Luke into Jake. It's not the same Lara. Hence why you can even for fun's sake argue that Angelina Jolie's two Lara Croft films are, even if they are not really very good, still supremely better than the latest film just because Lara was her good old sassy adventure self. A brave & adventures woman that dares to look death & discovery in the eye & yet risk it all to save a friend & the world. That's the Lara I've always loved & admired & will for as long as I live. Thank you for this memorabilia. And thank you for that end scene from Tomb Raider 2!

  4316. XD dam you! I was so close to give you a dislike, due to the title… but you convinced me ! I was blind, but now I can see! THIS IS THE GOLDEN AGE !! REMAKES and SEQUELS are gifts from the sky for this unworthy generation!
    2
  4317. Connerys best movie was Gold finger when the bomb at the last second stopped on 007 😂so great , Moore was my favourite bond because of how cheesy his movies were and the best person for the role was Pierce Brosnan he just had that English gentlemen nailed down

  4318. this is gold! hahaha

  4319. While the 2013 reboot is complete garbage to me, with its entire game focused on a boring cover shooter....the original tomb raider and the early sequels aren't as great either. The 1st one I liked, but its clunky controls and camera was a constant frustration for me back in the days. The 2nd and 3rd tomb raider were a lot worse, so many action sections were you literally gunned down a whole group of people, completely out of character for her. I think the legend - anniversary - underworld trilogy is the best. Has not too much action in it to change things up a bit, then goes back to the main puzzle/platforming part with a nice amount of secrets to uncover.

  4320. ****ing brilliant video! PS1 Lara Croft games are art. These and the PS1 Resident Evil games were permanently scared into my brain since the age of 10, and I love ‘em.

  4323. Rocky needed mickey in the first one (learn to fight better and not rely on just being a brawler), he needed mickey and adrian in the 2nd one (learning to gain more speed, and box right handed while needing adrian to get out of her coma and all of a sudden wanting him to box and win), he needed apollo and adrian in the third one (get it together after the loss of mickey, getting over his fear of thinking who he was was all a lie, and that their is more of a boxer inside of him). The fourth one was just all about revenge and that USA is number 1 over Russia. The fifth doesn't exist. The 6th one was all about coming to grips of his mortality but not wanting to give in to reality and that a near 60 year old man can go the distance with a prime 20+ year old boxer, while letting out his anger of losing his wife and fixing his relationship with his son.  In the Creed movie, Rocky no longer has any family/friends around, once again having a strained relationship with his son, lost his only buddy he ever had in Paulie...who was also his worst buddy. So without Mickey, Adrian, Apollo, or Paulie, he had no one there to give him hollywood speeches and training montages to keep him going. He basically just was going to keep living life until he believed death was calling for him and was willing to give in to it because their was nothing left on earth to fight for or care about. Which he took death was calling for him finally with the cancer.   Which of course, the only real bullishit that i couldn't stand in the Creed film was him getting cancer and not once did he care enough to get a hold of his son apparently.

  4325. @thecriticaldrinker, this is hands down my favorite channel on YouTube. Since discovering it a couple weeks ago, I start every morning at 4:30 am with one of your videos while on the pot getting ready to work out then end the night with another video before getting ready to work out with my girlfriend if you know what I mean. 😜 Anyway, thanks for the honest reviews and thanks to you I will never watch Barbie and never let my daughters watch it on my watch. Well, that’s all and I’ll go away now.

  4326. If you don't sympathize with characters from other races, genders, and sexual orientations then you are a pure evil creature that should just be killed on the spot. But on the other hand women, homosexuals, black people, atheists, other stuff like that demand, or at least the vocal groups, people of their groups to be included in anything otherwise they can't watch or enjoy or sympathize with those characters. Also let's rewrite history to reflects PC culture as well. That's always fun

  4327. Isint that allways the way it goes But pretty cool you got it in tho ;-)) Keep up the good work youre doing mate ;-))

  4329. Ranking of terminator movies 6. Terminator Dark Fate 5. Terminator Genisys 4. Terminator 3 rise of the machines 3. Terminator Salvation 2. Terminator 1. Terminator 2 judgement day Terminator 3 and salvation is interchangeable depending on the situation or mood because they're both middle of the road entertaining and at least try to change it up aswell as push the series a different way however terminator Genisys and Dark fate are just fuckin trash cash grabs And obviously terminator 2 is the best and the original are GOATs in science fiction films

  4330. To me the best villains are the ones that you can understand their motivations. Thanos for a recent example. And the best heroes are the ones that get the shit kicked out of them and they just keep getting up. John McClain is a classic example. To have truly compelling conflict both sides need to pose an underlying equal threat to each other. Different skill sets, resources, and abilities but equal power overall to influence the other. Even if it's not always clear. And remember, from the villains point of view the hero IS the antagonist. I"m not skilled enough with words to make the point clearly, but you recognize it when you see it. And you roll your eyes when you don't.

  4331. Basically all movies have a theme. It actually takes alot of work to avoid having one. How well it's explored can definitely be a point in the movies favor but is not enough to make a movie good on its own same as any other element. For example we wouldn't say a movie is great solely because the characters were. There still needs to be other elements like a solid plotline, good dialogue, etc.

  4332. i feel like your use of RE5 is especially tactful, since not only were there tons of multiracial female characters, but the blonde haired blue eyed white dude was Evil.

  4333. It's so sad that The Drinker has to actually do what Movie Critics used to get paid. Don't get me wrong, I can listen anytime and anywhere to The Drinker. It is just that more and more, we are at a point when Critics don't exist anymore. The bullshit that the occupation has become now boils down to good or bad entirely based upon if it is woke or not-woke...If, I was a modern day critic who just watched this video,I would feel shame and humiliation that this guy had the balls to not only give an honest opinion, but actually backs up said opinion with details from the movie simply because he obviously watched it while paying attention to the entertainment factor and plot-points which is the sole reason people watch movies to begin with. We now instead, have replaced objective praise and criticisms of film with biased liberal art major's who are completely deluded about what their job title actually is while rating a movie as good or bad simply by their checklist of woke or not woke....Who cares that there is such a disconnect now between critics and regular people who watches films to be fucking entertained or not? Anyways here's to you Drinker, for doing modern critic's jobs for them and should be given their paychecks for watching a film instead of sitting with a checklist paying attention to the important talking points and whether it jives with their selfish political beliefs and not giving a shit that they whored away any kind of credibility or integrity that would make their old college professors proud and further adding the slow bleeding out of journalism that is almost extinct now.....

  4340. Catelyn Tully's remaining 3 children sending Jon to the nights watch to freeze his balls off and die horribly just like their mother always wanted, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree after all. Didn't Arya and Sansa lecture Jon about family and staying together just an episode ago, then Sansa betrays Jon and turns out the Vegetable on the Wheelchair is a monster who knew what's going to happen but stayed silent like a snake so he can become king. So the Night king was a good guy who wanted to save Westeros from the Wheelchair monster.

  4341. @The Critical Drinker While I am somewhat saddened by the severy damaged/dead franchies of this year's toll, I am also holding out for a small chance that we might actually see some completely new content that's actually good and not a re-hash of old glories. Imagine a decade of completely new stories, never told before, with some real creative and smart writing behind it.

  4342. I appreciate the disclaimer however, the tone of your criticism is problematic because, you know...that thick accent.

  4345. Fantastic sarcastic review - although they did explain the extra cycle of regenerations when it was time for Matt Smith to go. As for this "previous" Doctor who nobody knows about, but who has a version of the TARDIS that is supposed to pre-date the First Doctor's but for some reason still has the shape of the Police Box that he changed it to in her future when he landed in London with Susan ... aarrghh.

  4350. Why do writers always write people in situations like this to respond like fucking idiots!? None of these people act like fucking people, and its so painfully obvious it destroys the movie. The original movie had the actors talk and act like normal people would in a scenario where your stuck on a ship with an alien that embodies the very personification of death and terror. Am asking too much to get that again?
    1
  4351. it crazier to believe that in 8 short years Fassbender turns into McKellen, that's a hell of a decline in physique, no disrespect to McKellen, when he played Magneto in the first X-men film i believe he was ~60-61 so at least he was appropriately aged, I've said for a while that the majority of the GoT actors, at least the main cast are a far cry from good actors in anything other than GoT, and even then their ability to act in that is taken to task once George R.R Martin's material was no longer being used. Aside from very few actors in GoT who are acting legends, there are few who will be able to go elsewhere and turn themselves into Movie stars, least of all the Sophie Turner

  4353. On point with T2 analyses !

  4354. yeah well they are not using their military resources correctly. they have the single biggest fucking castle, with 3 larger and larger castlewalls, moats etc. enough space for the unsullied to hold the first two walls with the wildlings and stark army + have archers and trebuchets on the last wall + have enough space to hold the dothraki in reserve. but it seems the authors didnt grasp the concept of a castle. it seems they think a fortress or a castle is just a bigger house. the whole battleplan in the show is looking like they wanted to loose
    1
  4355. What I despise most about this movie ( and it's even more godawful sequel ) is how it attempts to ride off the coattails of previous films in the "Alien" franchise, but pays no real homage or respect to them whatsoever; much like how Force Awakens & TLJ deliberately try to cash in on the nostalgia of the Star Wars franchise, but promptly take a big steaming shit over everything that came before..! Open message to all film makers out there... If you're not gonna show an established intellectual property the respect it deserves... MAKE YOUR OWN F*CKING MATERIAL!!!

  4356. How'd you enjoy the EFAP? I thought you did very well!!! EDIT: Loved the Rimmer 'Quarantine' clip. I think we all know why they have to shoehorn Uhura in... let's ask Morrissey his opinion. :) There's quotas to be fulfilled!

  4358. Got to say... agree wholeheartedly on everything you said... except that they should have had Hulk hulking out and taking on Thanos instead of She-ro Brie. Apart from that, they pulled it off. Enjoyed the ride Marvel. Thanks.

  4363. RE4 doesn't need a remake, maybe a remaster / graphics update but that'll probably ruin it too.

  4364. I enjoyed the movie. But you are correct. It's not his best work. Only his hardest work.

  4365. TLJ managed to make me get over my love of Star Wars. I don't understand the hype this trailer has garnered, I'm guessing people are hoping for an Abrams retcon. And effing Abrams, really?! More lensflare explosions!

  4372. I can remember like it was yesterday - standing in my college dorm talking to a journalism major whom know reviews movies for the Sun Times in Chicago. He told me that the computer graphics had finally come far enough along that a live action LOTR was being made starring...Elijah Wood! Ugh! Turns out he was perfect for the part, but conventional wisdom up to that time was that a live action LOTR could not be made. So grateful they were.
    1
  4373. I love how the first 2 encounters we see Rey in, she powers through them effortlessly. In the second one she's outnumbered THREE TO ONE, ARMED WITH A FUCKING POLE. She doesn't even need Finn's help! He runs up, like as if they were trying to make him look like a brave white knight. Then the movie basically tells us, as you say, THIS IS REY AND SHE DON'T NEED NO MAN! As she kicks the shit out of three armed men by herself, while surrounded and outflanked. Just... Wow.

  4374. I want to take over a small town in Oregon and build a community of Critical Drinker followers, where we can get together in mass and study and meditate on your deep analysis and critical thought

  4375. Good advice Drinker. I’m thinking Edinburgh might not have as many bins kicked over in drunken homeward bound meanderings in the next few weeks. Time for some self isolation and a chance to get through some of this gifted whisky I have been putting off for just such an eventuality. Stay safe and keep drunkenly fighting the good fight.

  4378. To me, what makes BP overrated is that SJWs treated it like the greatest superhero movie ever made just because it was about black characters, systemic racism, and made a couple "white boy" jabs. It got a ton of Oscar nominations because of past protests calling the Oscars "too white". Outside of that, it did have a solid plot, relatable villain (good performance by Michael B Jordan) and I really like T'Challa's character.

  4379. I finished this show last week it was great from the perspective of action to the character development. It was mostly Mizu like you said because of her heroes journey. Thanks for this review this show needs more attention

  4381. I get that their job was important and it's also important to take a personal pride in your work done well, no matter how menial it may seem. It's essential to a healthy work-life balance. But we do that every day in our own jobs. Hardly worthy of a show or movie. When we feature jobs like this in media, it's usually a comedy.

  4386. Started this show last night and will finish it tonight. Actually good unlike Hollywood stuff for the most part. They showed what you needed and actually left it to you to think for yourself. Not interested in being told by people like KK or fy Bob or Nia de cost marvel a lot, anything they have to tell me. What they say is mostly lies and bs anyhow. What's that lizard movie that's kicking marvels backside Godzilla minus 1 is actually about the people in it not the self insert directors Hollywood seems to want. If you have no idea what your doing 250 million dollars doesn't fix a crap movie, wheras 13 million sure goes a long way. Good value for money.

  4406. The only sokver lining from this garbage trilogy is the the prequels have finally gotten the respect they deserved, not as neccesarily great films but as Star Wars films that are important to the story and have truly good intentions behind them. George Lucas I salute you good sir, sorry Disney fucked up your legacy somewhat
    1
  4407. As a woman I find the characters of Rey, Captain Marvel and Doc JodieWho insulting. To me this agenda says women can only succeed if they stand on top of the successes of existing Male driven storylines and given every single concievable advantage over the Male characters then cheat their way to the top of the box office with deceptive marketing practices. There are a plethora of successful female protagonists in movies and TV that prove these tactics are ridiculously unnecessary. These producers and directors are deluded and not doing women any favors. It's either an example of gross stupidity or an evil plot so twisted we can see the objective.
    1
  4408. I try not to make any major life decisions based on my childhood visions or dreams. That would just be completely ridiculous.

  4410. I've said it since the film released, and I'll say it again--Thor: Ragnarok was a garbage movie that manages to undermine and insult both the original Ragnarok comic storyline and the World War Hulk comic storyline, at once. I've always hated how so many MCU fans tend to defend it with everything they have, when the film really could have been so much more.

  4419. It's simple - it's gloss vs substance. Wrath of Khan deals with age and revenge. You don't have to have seen the original appearance of Khan to understand his character - he was an old foe of Kirk's from the past blaming him for his miserable condition. Kirk is dealing with his age and boring new position then he has to face a mistake from his past when he forgot about Khan and his people. A mistake that leads to the death of an old friend. What does Into Darkness deal with? Kirk facing off against a thawed out Hitler he doesn't know to fight another bad guy who Frosty Hitler kills then Popsicle Hitler becomes the main bad guy with his brilliant plan to shoot missiles at the Enterprise. What could have been an interesting movie in itself - the direction and destiny of Star Fleet: do they pursue science or war? - becomes sidelined by a hacky reboot of Wrath of Khan without any of the elements that made the original so compelling.
    1
  4420. Funny. I was actually having a shit when I clicked this video xD It amazes me what levels of stupidity people can achieve. They and a READY FKN SCRIPT! JUST FOLLOW WHAT HAPPENED IN THE FKN GAME - BAM! A movie that is a success. There should be some international law that doesn't allow moron directors to change the source material.

  4422. I watched all shows so far and I'm about had enough. The plot has been obvious and forced thus far. Ahsoka has her arms crossed too much and all the characters seem to emote only through the eyes if that. None of the characters are believable. General Syndulla lost her lover but she has no edge of a character that has suffered that kind of grief. The opening temple is a ripoff of Fifth Element. Yes, so much staring! The idea that Sabine Wren can manufacture the force because she wants too is idiotic.

  4423. Clicked on this video, already seen it, but wanted to give you my view number thingy and like thingy, wish I could do more (no seriously, I'm poor as fuck, and I DO wish I could give more, don't judge me!! ;) ). And congrats on the 100k. You fuckin deserve it, man! That was quick!

  4424. It's more appropriate to say DISGUST the Latest Mary Sue, then Discussed the Last Jedi. Personally, I'd rather go through ten ROOT CANALS and Fifteen Hemoroid surgeries sans anesthesia, and a Colonoscopy with a Golden age television Camera then Disgust thTHAT TRAVESTY of a Woke Wars Movie.

  4425. It basically captured all of the reasons Hollywood is becoming less and less relevant. Instead of having one person with a clear vision on a movie project, it's lots of people all sticking their fingers into the pie until it looks like the remains of a play dough set a toddlers finished with. This crap still happens, not to the level of pumping this much money in, but producers still think that investing in a project gives them the right to change it. It's why we're seeing less movies coming out of Hollywood and an increasing number of them are obviously shit, not just arguably shit.

However considering the color and such I am willing to bet it is more like 10 lbs on her back and 30 lbs total. Get some iron chains and then get back to me. Also shit form.

  4444. Wait...your an author too? Not just a hilarious YouTuber with a very good understanding of plot, and story dynamics? It makes more sense now. How can I find your books? How do I say this? Oh yeah, "shut up and take me money!" An inebriated wordsmith such as yourself intrigues me to check them out. And thank you for all the great videos. Only been subscribed a few months but I watch all your videos, outside of the spoilers for stuff I have not watched yet.

  4445. Honestly, I think the worst thing about the sequels is how creatively bankrupt they are. I can deal with bad acting, or some badly written dialogue, or a plot hole here and there, if a movie has a decent creative vision behind it. But these movies don’t have that whatsoever. There’s no real story to tell in these movies. They’re just a series of scenes put together to make people like them based on fun action and nostalgia, and that’s not what Star Wars is.

  4448. I was so disappointed in this film. It’s three hours, but it still feels like a lot was cut out. There is just not enough time to have the kids, the adults, and Pennywise stories all running at the same time. We had a whole movie with them as kids. That should have been enough.
    1
  4449. There's a typo in the video's title. I believe the movie is called Genishyt.

  4450. Much better character arc ending for him Drinker. Well thought out. And a perfect example of how you don't have to destroy a beloved character just to fit your own agenda. God who resists the sun can't handle his emotions! Oh and in the current world, apparently all men should be more in touch with their emotions, well if we are all to turn out like fat Thor then I'd say fuck that.

  4451. The thematic undertones of this presentation made the whole allegorical representation overwhelming. Also I am very full of shit.

  4452. Two words explain the complete failure of Prometheus: "Damon Lindelof." The man cannot write, and I don't understand how he keeps getting work. This movie destroyed the last shred of confidence I had in Hollywood. I became much more picky about what I went to see, and now I rarely watch movies at all.
    1
  4453. Thank you SO MUCH for this.  When you criticize a film for its complete disregard for established canon, its complete disregard for good writing and acting, and its overall dismissive attitude toward real Star Trek fans and deep thought (and real emotion,) you get derided as a hater and a nerd. Well, all I have to say to that is "FUCK OFF, FILM!"

  4454. Pedro Pascal walked off the project part-way through. This is not the Mandalorian you are looking for.

  4455. You spoke my mind. I think I have burned out with the MCU (and "standard" superhero movies in general) probably about two years ago. Due to rave reviews I gave Black Panther a fair chance last year, but never before have I left the movie theater feeling so disappointed and betrayed. To this day, Iron Man (2008) is my favorite MCU movie.
    1
  4456. Just another reminder that Tremors is a cool asf movie

  4457. Agreed. Went into this with high expectations based on the critics gargling this movies balls in their mouth. I thought it was cheesy and the plot was trash. Painfully overrated. Still worth seeing, but I’d say it’s a solid 6/10.

  4460. I enjoyed the remake a lot, and while I didn't mind the ending I could definitely feel how it was the weakest part. It makes sense that that was what they changed. Seeing your video pop up I watched the original before actually hearing what you had to say. 100% the original has the better ending. Far more compelling and interesting. A story of the killers and not the one family that takes them down. But like you said, even that changed story could be done well. However it's a weird case where I still prefer the remake because of the great majority of it. There's such an incredible amount of inter-character tension. They let the scenes breathe and develop more. We learn about the characters more. It's just a more entertaining and interesting film. Except for that damned final act! So I like both for very different reasons.

  4464. Why fight their way through the magical bullshit forest when they could fly overhead in a helicopter and land at the magical bullshit fairytale land? Work smarter, not harder. This map thing and the necklaces could've been chopped out and that extra runtime could've been used for proper pacing and/or development.

  4465. Im sure this is a thought many fans had, and here goes... we dont care if its man, woman, White or black, or any ethnic background, its about the story, if the evolution of the character seems natural to the story, then it would be a winner, however, they just seem to be doing it for the sake of it, so they can tick that diversity box.. good to know my licence fee is in the hands of caring professionals, and not lazy hacks that want to bein the in crowd.. BTW Im the enemy, White Male Hetrosexual, sorry about that, I'll go kill myself immediatly

  4467. The problem with the artillery wasn't that it was in front of the infantry it's problem is that Catapults and Trebuchet are primarily siege engines, designed for knocking defences down. Balisters would have been far better as they if tipped with dragon glass could have skewered dozens of whytes per shot and been effective to taking out zombie giants, and crucially could have been mounted on towers firing over the infantry.

  4473. I remember a voyager episode Data was collected from sadistic human (alien) experiments by the cardasians Voyager crew needed that info to save a life Patient refused treatment knowing how it was acquired by others In the end the captain overrules her wishes for the sake of her life and the fact that the said patient was vital to the maintenance of the lost ship they were on Afterwards the medical officer decides to delete all knowledge of the treatment for the feelings of the crew affected by what had happened Before the data is deleted in the form of a hologram the data hologram says Its amazing how willing you are to use knowledge no matter how gathered when you are desperate situation

I dropped a superchat about your video breaking down the Proton Pack scene between the original and the 2016 movie. One of the Bullshitters said he has seen your stuff and said for folks to check out your stuff. You do first class work and the word is getting out. You'll be over 100k before summer is out.

  4490. Madelyn Stillwell is a more compassionate character than 99.999% of viewers realize; you've got to pay close attention to some of the characters to appreciate the nuances of their actions; there's a scene where when Homelander tells her he has destroyed an airliner to cover-up his blunder and coincidentally gain political power for the Vaught Group, she suddenly starts kissing him. Why? Because Homelander can detect increased heart-rates and body temperature; Stilllwell is horrified by what he has done; her heart is pounding so she tricks Homelander into believing she is sexually aroused. Homelander is practically a god (an evil one) and must be appeased and kept happy at all times no matter what. That's what Madelyn Stillwell does and it's the reason she orders the assassination and cover-ups. And on a side-note, did Homelander really destroy the cockpit of that airliner by accident?

  4501. hate that i feel this way and have to say it, but i was thoroughly disappointed with this movie. why did they have to emasculate Thor to such an extent? its not funny at all. No rematch for Hulk against Thanos? Every Fan wanted to see that ! Not even one decent fight scene for professor hulk? c'mon! plus there were far too many loopholes with the time travel plot. i'm surprised and massively disappointed with how much of an anticlimax this movie was. I'd like to punch the Russos in the face for this! How can you do that to Thor? And don't get me started on that cringe-worthy girl-power scene! I suspect after the buzz and frenetics over this movie have died down, Marvel will realize that its played a costly game and made some huge mistakes. Excellent review, though.

  4506. Rey can't learn anything from Luke, she's in God mode. As a matter of fact Rey can show Luke a thing or two, she already beat his ass and her biggest foe KR. What can Luke as force ghost teach her? Unlike Luke she didn't need anyone to show her how to fly, fight, use the force, and interpret a robot that beeps. All this in the first movie while Luke needed help for all those things through out an entire saga. Can't teach God anything Rey doesn't know.

  4507. I love you Critical, but your audio mixing hurts more than brake fluid sometimes (exhibit a: 4:10 - 4:30). Just a general rule of thumb, keep everything about the same volume range as your talking or quieter and you should be good. I know a lot of people who don't follow this rule that are big YouTubers... anyway, I'ma go away now <3 P.S: Have loved the recent Podcasts!

  4508. Remember when Star Trek was Hornblower in space? Remember when that was the entire point? Big, majestic sailing ships and cunning captains... in space? Remember when that was so true, Roddenberry gave Patrick Stewart a pile of Hornblower books to read to figure out Picard's character? Well fuck you. Have a spaceship somehow "falling" from the moon to the Earth in a few seconds, and a CGI city getting flattened.

  4509. Yeah man this was an accurate report my dear friend. The fifth was a great movie and definitely one it's own

  4510. The problem Rey has caused, in my opinion, goes beyond jsut the trilogy. How do you come back from this where you've created a character so strong they cannot be beaten - you have to go down the Dragonball Z route. Secondly the way they explained everything with this "download power" essentially means training is no longer a thing. From now on it will always be "but hwy didn't s/he just download the force power off the other person?"

  4511. One of the dumbest parts in the film is when she goes to the Hunter bar and plays on their sense of heroism... seconds after being told they were mercenaries, and not the heroic type. ...Like what? What were you expecting Alita? lol

  4528. We are only seeing it twice because we already bought tickets for tomorrow. After all the glowing reviews, we really were excited and scrounged up reasonably okay seats last Thursday to watch it, figuring it's a duh that we will see it twice so it didn't matter. So, we will see it tomorrow. However, I found the movie to be okay but it has plot holes. Plus, I hated what was done to Thor. Ultimately, the ending with Cap was inconsistent with his character. He could never be happy just being married while ignoring everything going on in the world even though he has the power to do something about it. That's not Cap, anymore than it's Thor to descend into a total loser without courage or heart. Merely having a spouse does not give a man (or anyone, for that matter) a purpose in life. That is totally not realistic. Ultimately I agree that Infinity War was much better.

  4529. 5:43, wearing a dress that's ot long enough to adequately hide the handgun you're wearing on your thigh and the handgun itself looking like a normal-sized pistol, not a Makarov or some other type of smaller sidearm usually best suited for these kinds of situations. And they got into the photo booth just before that where they showed off the knives they stuck in their boots and clothing to hide. Superspies of the year, everybody.

  4531. The conflict in "Crimson Tide" is neatly summed up at the end by the JAG (played by Jason Robards): "You were both right, and you were also both wrong." He also says "Off the record, you've both created a hell of a mess." THAT neatly sums up Kathleen Kennedy and Rian Johnson.
