I won't lie, I'm a little confused as to what you're talking about

@@MovieTalk-2 none of the utuBe trailers are posted on lionsgate or american zoetrope channel’s which would be the first place they’d go for an *”official”* release for a project headed by someone as huge as francis-ford, also the official release date bounced around at least twice since feb. this project almost felt like a hoax.

​@RARA64HUNNID well considering the fact that it played at Cannes and is going to play at TIFF, I'm pretty sure it's real and actually happening lol. But I won't lie, "zoetrope" is not a word I've heard in many, many, MANY years so you caught me off guard with that one.

They just showed the trailer in theaters before the film the crow started

@@Justahuman6432 oh interesting. I'm assuming they still kept the fake reviews in there?

Funny enough, I only just recently watched it, so the timing worked out really well!

Hey, that's an awesome list! I completely forgot about Blazing Saddles, and Monty Python is an all time classic, so I definitely respect that! As for the Human Centipede argument, I realized after editing the video that maybe it wasn't the best example, so I'll admit that I was wrong for saying it. In hindsight, a better example would be A Serbian Film (which actually could've been great if the director was trying to actually make something good of it) or any of Lucifer Valantine's films. One day I want to make a video talking about how he truly is the worst filmmaker working today. But honestly, back with the topic itself, I love your list. I even considered putting Fury Road in there, or making it a tie, before ultimately just going with The Raid.

I'm confused. Are you referring to me getting a real job?

@@MovieTalk-2 not you. I'm talking about all the famous movie stars people from Hollywood because they had to get a real job because hope the Hollywood give them their career.

Elite cameraman? Really? Michael Bay is an elite cameraman? He makes big explosion and visual noise. He's one of the worst filmmakers in Hollywood today. Plus, I didn't use tiktok for any of the information. I used the article posted on Variety. Skibidi Toilet is to this day one of the worst creations ever made, and it's the face of the reason why Gen Alpha is on the decline. It represents the brain rot on a level beyond any competent human beings' comprehension. I would love to discuss this and have a conversation if you're willing to have one.

Well it's a good thing that he's been open to explaining that he isn't about film criticism anymore. The hate that he's gotten about his choice is nothing more than idiotic. He's not acting like he's a critic anymore. He's OPEN and has always been open about how he's only here to celebrate films. But, the sad thing about it is that he's the only person left who foes movie reviews on TH-cam... wait, what's that? Other people do movie reviews on TH-cam too? If you don't enjoy how he does reviews anymore, than you don't have to cry and act like it's the end of film criticism as we know it. He isn't a sellout, he's just not going to be bashing peoples work, then ask why they all the sudden don't want to work with him. There is absolutely zero reason why any of this criticism is needed

​@MovieTalk-2433 A real filmmaker is not going to work with another filmmaker because they gave their film a negative review lol. Real filmmakers welcome constructive criticism. How can they improve if they don't have it? And He's not acting like a film critic anymore? Go look at all his video thumbnails, "MOVIE REVIEW "on 95% of his videos my guy lol. That's being disingenuous. There is every reason why the criticism is justified against him. When you don't call out bad filmmaking, bad films continue being made. Let that sink in.

@@32lilbruce Again, I go back to the idea that he's not acting like he's a film critic. You will never see him say that he's doing a proper film criticism. Plus, there's a difference between giving feedback and being a critic. He's just simply allowing others to give the criticism. He's just there to talk about movies he enjoys. Everyone who knows who he is understands that. Just because he puts "Movie Review" on his videos doesn't mean he's looking at the film like a critic. It just means that he's creating a review of the film he enjoys and talking about what he liked about it. Like I said before, there are other people out there who will criticize a movie. That's just now what he's about anymore. It's not that he's refusing to call out bad filmmaking, it's just him not wanting to bash other people working in the same industry. There are critics out there that do that. He's just a filmmaker who's celebrating films with his audience.

Wow, that honestly means so much, more than what you would've probably expected. I try hard to find ways to improve these videos, especially when I look back on some of my first videos, and just seeing that really put a smile on my face. Really, thank you for saying that. It's stuff like your comment that keeps me motivated to do these videos

:D glad i could help

I 100% disagree. There's a couple of things I'd like to address with that. 1. There is no such thing as a cash grab. Maybe for examples like the Playmobil Movie, but outside of that, there has never been a cash grab. Every single movie is designed to make money. There has never been a film where a producer or studio exec looked at the film and went, "Yeah, I want to lose money with that one." If the movie exists, then it was designed so that it could bring in a profit. 2. Outside of Wish, Disney still makes incredible films. Are they as good as, say, the Renesaissance Era? Of course not. But they are still great films, and Disney continues to make great films under both the Disney banner and the Pixar banner (Marvel is a more complex story, but still, they make good Marvel movies). They continue to make great films to this day, so I have to completely disagree with you on that. I'd love to talk more in-depth about this, though, if you're willing to have the conversation

@@MovieTalk-2 I disagree, Frozen is a terrible adaption of the Snowqueen, Raya and the last Dragon had a horrible message, Strange World was a box-office bomb for good reason Big Hero 6 and Ralph breaks the internet were meh. Encanto, Princess and the Frog was great, but Disney is no longer as ambitious as they were in the 90's.

@@orangeslash1667 I mean, I get the argument that Disney isn't in the same level that it used to be (it was called the Renaissance Era for a reason), but I think you're just cherry-picking. Let's look at Pixar's last five movies: Inside Out 2, Elemental, Lightyear, Turning Red, and Luca. Only one of those films, Lightyear, had mixed reactions. Maybe the Disney brand itself without Pixar hasn't made exclusively amazing films, but many of their films are still widely praised. You mentioned Big Hero 6 being meh, but the general audience would disagree with you. Same goes for Frozen and Rya and the Last Dragon. Just because they aren't in the era where every Disney movie becomes an instant classic doesn't mean Disney still can't keep that same charm that it used to have. And even with that said, I would argue films like Moana and Zootopia will become classics and on the same level as the films from the 90s in the near future. But I'd love to talk more about it if you're willing to have the conversation.

@@MovieTalk-2 I'm talking about critical reception, not box office success. Alot of people complain about the plot twist villain in Big Hero 6. Elsa from Frozen was originally going to be a villain, but because of Let it Go the whole story was rewritten to fit nicer Elsa. How is that good storytelling??? You don't rewrite the whole story for one song. As for Zootopia, TH-camr (4shame) did a good job addressing the issues. Pixar films don't count, I'm talking about Disney in House.

@orangeslash1667 but why doesn't Pixar count? It's all under the same brand. Whenever you see a new Pixar movie, it's "Disney Pixar's (Movie Title)" The only thing I wouldn't count is Fox and Searchlight Pictures. Also, I would just like to point out that your point about Zootopia doesn't make a lot of sense. A single person? That's all? I could find a video essay about how The Godfather is a terrible movie. That wouldn't change anything about the general consensus of the film. And I do belive that box office and movie's reception go hand to hand. Look at Marvel. People started to hate the new Marvel movies, so what happened? The box office tanked. Then they release movies like GOTG 3 and Deadpool & Wolverine, and what happens? The box office explodes, because they're good movies. Whenever Disney or Pixar make a good movie, people go out to theaters and see it. Whenever they don't make a good movie, not as much people go out to see it. The box office is a good indicator about what people enjoy and what they don't.

I actually kinda love that

It was very much an amazing film, but there's still plenty of horror films I'd put in front of it. Barbarian, Skinamarink, and Godzilla Minus One are just a few that I'd rank above it, not to mention the fact that we're not even halfway done with the decade. But with that being said, it will be AT THE VERY LEAST a top 3 or 5 horror film of the year, if not the best horror film this year, and it will remain popular for years to come. I just wouldn't jump all the way to the best of the decade. Still a masterfully done film that I will fondly look back on and remember how lucky I was to be able to see Longlegs in theaters

Honestly, it's hard to say who my favorite voice actor is in all the Shrek movies. Everyone always brings their A-game when they do these movies, but Cameron Diaz might be one of my personal favorites among the cast

Fiona Meets Kitty Softpaws in Shrek 5 Update

I'm glad you could enjoy it, but for me personally, I absolutely despised it. It was fundamentally flawed in every form that a movie should be. But I mean that's just me. I know plenty of people, including my theater, enjoyed it a lot, so I'm glad you could too. I always say liking movies is better than not liking them, so I always envy someone who could have a good time with a film I didn't like. There are no wrong opinions about art at the end of the day

I heavily have to disagree with you on that one. He's in this series to help build layers of Frenchie's character. The only problem is that's just that. He hasn't done anything unique to make him feel more like an actual person rather than a plot device. Ultimately, I don't feel like he's a waste of scenes because I do enjoy seeing this side of Frenchie, but I think he could be written better and get more depth added. There's still a lot more episodes left, so only time will tell

I wouldn't go that far, but I'm curious as to your reasoning why you thought it was awful

It did 4 million worldwide. It's gonna need to make $80M at the minimum to break even, but realistically, that number is closer to $85-90M

I won't lie, I'm confused as to what you're trying to ask me

@@MovieTalk-2 lazy political writing.

Exactly. Hollywood is just erasing the need to ever see a movie in the theaters, because you just have to wait a little bit before you can just buy it on Blu-ray or Amazon. That's what I truly believe is one of the big driving forces to why there's been so many movies that have underperformed at the box office. There's just no reason anymore to actually go to the theaters now.

Thanks, this has so far been probably one of my most favorite videos I've done so far, so I'm glad you enjoyed it!
