Her weakness was she was to damn clever to live. It totally makes sense audience don't think about it.
I wanna like your comment, but I don't wanna ruin that 333.
This movie was like trying to solve a math equation that constantly changes itself to discredit all your work.
And the biggest issue is: If you've seen a whodunnit before. You already know the answer. I mean, really, "A is clearly the intented victim but B died instead"? I saw this with friends. We usually get together for whodunnits and pause to place bets every once in a while, then make our final bet before the ending. Literally, what we said when we saw miles is "discarded because even RJ can't be stupid enough to make a villain THAT blatant", and even then by the time the first murder happened we ALL placed our bet on Miles and not a single person changed it from then on. We just commented on how obvious it is.
Which is kinda like changing the equation by constantly adding shit that ammounts to nothing way too obviously. Like changing X for (1+x-1), then (3x/3), then sqr(x^2), etc. We get it RJ. You think you're a genius! Well guess what?! You're NOT!
I've seen better whodunnits made by actual amateurs with 0 experience. Hell, I play TTRPGs, and the half-improvised mistery plots I've seen my friends come up with while drunk were for the most part objectively better than this.
All it takes to make a half decent whodunnit is a good flowchart and enough humility to trust the audience to predict what your next move is with the evidence presented as you explain said flowchart. And RJ clearly doesn't have either.
"SUBVERSION"
It wasn’t though?
@@Dragonage2ftw I dare you explain to me how.

This is a genuine argument I’ve heard about this movie and I had to walk away before I hit something
My answer: "Intentions don't matter, only the end result. If I *intentionally* shit on your breakfast, it's still a ruined meal."
But honestly there's no debate or discussion to be had with these people xD. Just ignore and move on.
I don't buy that premise of intentional shittiness. Its a weak deception attempt to get away with excreting a sub par piece while hauling in money for something of greater value, i.e. a con.
i thought it was great! i rate it equal as knives out, the mysterie was same level to me

That Mona Lisa bit makes me think Rian Johnson gets off to the idea of destroying beloved works of art.
That is absolutely why he wrote that scene.
Exactly. Ruin Johnson is nothing but an idiot narcissist cultural vandal.
In his heart, I suspect, he idolizes Mao as in burn everything to the ground and then have a utopian famine.
He just hates art, it feels like an act of intentional spite really and would explain his lust towards "subverting" everything.
Like Star Wars?
There's people justyfing the burning of the Mona Lisa by saying "it's a symbol of fighting the system"
A painting made by Da Vinci who was an inventor, scientist, philosopher, humanist, born in an era when Italy was still colonized and his mother was from a lower class...
You expect these people to have any grasp on history or everyday struggles.
@@TheHalogen131 nah dead white man bad they stoles the precious from nubian kangz
@@TheHalogen131 of course not, but seeing how they behave like they are the "intelligent ones" it pisses me off
They hate Western Civilization pure and simple and the Mona Lisa is an important symbol of Western achievement.
And the Mona Lisa, while initially a commission, became a passion project, that Da Vinci never got paid for and thus didn't give to the wealthy benefactor but instead kept with him to continue working on for the rest of his life.
It's categorically an example of someone making art as high quality as possible, perfecting something simply out of love for the craft, rather than a pay check.
I get why Rian Johnson wanted to destroy it.
That whole Among Us insert by Rian Johnson is a typical "How do you do, fellow kids". And he's so giddy about it in the interview.
I genuinely can't hate him when watching him gush about it in that interview he just seems so happy and i feel bad instead of cringe.
@@NeonValleystry and remember an actually talented person could be in his place. Really erases any notion of pity.
In the 1920s, the most famous murder mystery authors of the day got together to write a list of rules of what NOT to include in a mystery. Twins that the audience is not made aware of before the fact was one of their no-nos. He's using things that were cliche before WW2.
Wow, it's THAT cliche??
@@legendarymarston9174 - yeah. in 1929 the mystery author Ronald Knox published 10 rules for mystery stories to be 'fair play' for audiences (that other writers like Agatha Christie followed) and the "twins, and doubles generally, must not appear unless we have been duly prepared for them." Knox own books are pretty great, as they all play with the rules, doing fair play mysteries that come close to breaking them but don't (including using twins).
A fun 1973 compilation, "Sins for Father Knox," consisted of 10 stories that each broke just 1 of the rules while still making good stories, showing Johnson how subversion can be done right.
Van Dine made a slightly less popular list of rules for mystery, the last of which was a catch all that "list a few of the devices which no self-respecting detective-story writer will now avail himself of" because they are so cliche by 1928, including "The final pinning of the crime on a twin, or a relative who looks exactly like the suspected, but innocent, person."
@@legendarymarston9174 - hell, subverting the genre is cliche in mystery, given how old the genre is. The book that inspired Christie to write mystery - Trent's last case - was itself a genre subversion (that used the "mystery is actually way simpler than it seems and the detective is tricked because he thinks it must be more complicated than it is" trick Johnson is trying to use here, but actually pulled it off). It takes balls to think you can subvert a genre that's been being subverted for >100 years in a new/unique way LOL
Not to mention anyone who has spent any time around an identical twin will know they have a twin pretty quickly. They talk with with each other at least once on the phone every day and mention it often. No way a business partner didn't know about her.
@@samuellund1377 that's what pissed me off the most in the movie, nobody knew she had a sister? Really?

Did he...
Subvert your expectation... of comprehending his story?
@@TheControlBlue I'm pretty sure most people were expecting this movie to be incomprehensible, it's kind of his trademark at this point
@@TheControlBlue The ultimate way to shut down anyone saying the last Jedi was a masterpiece in subversion is to point out how rise of Skywalker pulled off a double subversion by undoing everything Rian set up and destroying the themes he laid out.
I don't know why people are surprised when he shows them who he is and his capability, over and over. Somebody owes him big for something.
@@TheControlBlue no, i expected a shit movie
i never thought about whether it would be on purpose or not
therefore, Rian fell into MY glass onion because he thinks i think about him
One of the dumbest things in this movie that it's defenders just let slide is the idea that you can quickly pull a pistol out of a custom leather holster tucked in someones crotch without them ever noticing (or even glancing down to where the weight of their gun is suddenly not anymore).
Who knew Rian got the Life is Strange writers as consultants?
Let's not even talk about the level of custom gunsmithing involved in creating a wildcat round that can knock you flat like an elephant gun but also somehow be stopped by a thin notebook while leaving the bullet completely intact.
Not too mention the burning the tissue with the evidence scene
@@chaimafaghet7343 was it too much to ask for her to wear a bulletproof vest since she is knowingly entering a territory where people might want to murder her? like seriously dafuck
He had pickpocketing leveled 100. "It must have been the wind."
This. That's what writers lack nowadays. Common sense / real world knowledge.
the plot of this movie becomes even worst when you realize twins have different fingerprints and teeth development.
Well, to be completely fair, their fingerprints would still be similar to a degree. They're not identical or even very alike, obviously. But still.
@@whynot7564 not at all actually
Yeah the general understanding of twins for most people flies out the window when you realize even identical twins are easily told apart when you spend like an hour with them. They aren't clones, they're separate people with their own personalities and biology.
The world's most famous "plot subverter" forgot that the world's most famous painting is painted on wood panel, not canvas.
You idiot! That also was a subversion. You expected it on a wood panel but he subverted that! Hence why is the greatest subverter of all time.
Nah, he didn't forget, as that would imply that he had known such information in the first place. Rian is just lazy, which is why he can't craft a decent whodunit murder mystery.
Apparently there was going to be an end scene that took this into account where it's revealed that it was a fake and the real Mona Lisa is still safe. I can't remember the specifics but I think it's just "backpedaling" in a way, trying to deny that he is that stupid.
Why does TH-cam keep removing my likes on these comments.
@@zzodysseuszz Oh I always thought it was a "terrible Aussie Internet" problem for me, it happens to you too?
Rian also pulls a “subversion” by playing clips of events that never happened. Like the flashback to Norton putting his drink down for Bautista to drink it, played multiple times to falsely establish what happened and then he has the gaul to be like “I tricked you!”
It’s so lazy.
No! It's just dumb!
I’d wager that was one of the better tricks. It falls on you to have been paying attention when it first happened and, not letting the slight of hand when it’s replayed incorrectly, trick you. The scenes where Helen is conveniently out of frame the first time we see it and it isn’t revealed until later that “omg she was there the whole time right next to him” are a lot worse
@@argondrolf785 That’s fair. And yes I agree that those are worse I only brought it up bc E;R didn’t.
The way you do something like that correctly is to have it happen in the Background and to not bring any focus to it
Something like that if done correctly is really cool on rewatches when you can look for the details
@@daskampffredchen don’t forget, the best mysteries show you everything and give you all the clues so you can piece it all together yourself. I feel like them actually showing us the drinks being switched the first time was the right choice. Film is primarily a visual medium so using tricks like that does show an understand of tools of the trade. You can even go back on a second viewing and be like “did he really switch the drinks the first time right in front of me and I just didn’t notice?” I feel it was one of the few things that was really well done in the movie because it actually asked you the audience to remember and trust what you saw. You can also see Norton running around in the dark with the gun in his hand if you look close enough
This movie plays out like a hitman level with loads of detail and possibilities, and you just blow your way through with a shotgun
Or you could just play hatred
The “suspension of dis bay leaf” bit was hilarious, E;R just keeps improving
I am fucking rolling of laughing in my chair Hahahahaha
As soon as he mentioned suspending that bay leaf, I knew that Alfredo was just a farce 😂😂😂
I thought it was real 😭
It was the only reason I understood the title, though not what it means 😅
It is absolutely ludicrous that NONE of the friends knew she had a twin sister. Did she not have a picture of her sister in her office? Never invite her to a party with them? Never mention her as a fun-fact? Really??

The idea of Harlan being a sadistic loon that tricked Fran into assisting his suicide while knowing she would try to cover it up and make herself look like a murderer, to the point of leaving her his estate to make her look even more like a long-con abusive nurse, is brilliant narrative construction and the fact you came up with that off the cuff shows that in a just world, you would be a script doctor superstar and hacks like RJ would be banned from literacy.
The fact that he chose the knife for his "suicide" fit perfectly. Not to mention that the Harlan's family could still get its comeuppance in the end. I thought along similar lines myself!
I accidentally ruined the mood in my friend group after watching the first movie and just turning around calling it for what it was. I still can't believe it got a sequel. I thought they were baiting Chris Evans' character he whole time, so I spent the whole movie trying to prove it wasn't actually him just for that ending T0T
I still have hope for the "Rian being banned" part.
TFW we will never get a movie written and directed by E;R
Remember how he fucked over his son's career for bullshit reasons
My suspension of disbelief was broken when he died from an allergic reaction. Seriously, the guy who is so prepared at all times that he takes a gun into a pool wouldn't have an epipen? None of his nearly decade long friends would recognize it? Why would they even be okay with having one man's deathly allergen lying around?
I dunno. Peanuts and shellfish are all around people with those deathly allergies.
It shouldn't have even got to the point of needing an epipen. Pineapple has a very distinct flavor. He would have spit the drink out as soon as he tasted it.
"Prepared"
> carries a loaded, chambered gun without the safety on his crotch at all times, that he fires randomly.
Mm, prepared.
Plus he was at a friend's place, why would he need to worry about pineapple?
The taste element is a good argument though, he'd have to be pretty blasted not to notice it.
He may be dumb and unsafe with his firearm, but he sees carrying it everywhere as a way to be prepared "in case shit goes down." I'd argue a paranoid person who needs a gun to protect himself, even among friends, would also be prepared enough to always have an EpiPen, too.

This film maker should try subverting my expectations by making a good film.
Seriously bro.
Knives Out would've been so much more interesting if the dad had planned everything.
A nice extra twist at the end would've been a clause in his will that anyone who didn't contest the will would share the inheritance with Marta.
"that anyone who didn't contest the will would share the inheritance with Marta."
That wouldn't work though; by default they wouldn't contest it and when the lawyer announced who the stuff was going to, he'd distrubute it to everyone (because no one had any reason to contest).
Knives Out was kind of an allegory how boomer are leaving nothing to their kids and selling out to illegal mexicans.
It would have to be a second, hidden will, or a seperate envelope that the main will mentions, with instructions not to open it up until after the murder is solved, or after a certain period of time?
Yeah cause then I imagine the family starts to doubt Marta's whole cannot-tell-a-lie shtick as a ruse, cleverly playing them since they first met! Only her closest relatives would defend her, and then as more and more evidence piles up against her, even they stop trusting her.
The funniest part is E:R's version is exactly what I thought of the one time I saw the trailer. So Ruin Johnson was right not to go that route, but Ruin's solution to that was arguably dumber than playing the obvious twist completely straight would've been.
I think the frustrating thing about someone like Rian's films is that because he brands himself as a 'subversive' director, he has a ready-made ARMY of people who will defend his work to the death because they love the idea that they 'got it' while everyone else didn't.
Obvious plot holes? A cunning subversion of the genre! Contrivance galore? A subversion of how neatly things line up in traditional detective tales! Actually the whole plot was just monumentally dumb? Only a GENIUS could forsee the subversion, in which a genre known for its complex well written plots actually turns out to be farcical! And the best one of all, should you happen to be irked that what was billed as a murder mystery turns out to have no qualities of a murder mystery? Behold the greatest subversion - it was actually a subversive, comedic parody all along!
If people can enjoy his movies, more power to them. I just get so tired that any criticism is his work for any reason is dismissed with a lot of scoffing and harrumphing about how such critics OBVIOUSLY didn't get it.

My wife and I recently watched murder on the orient express, and there was a moment during Poirot's final breakdown where it all clicked for me, and I exclaimed out loud that I knew who did it. Nothing like that comes even close to happening in a Rian Johnson movie.
Edit clarification: I mean the 1976 version, not that abortion done a few years ago.
You know what would’ve actually been a crazy subversion? If Helen actually killed everyone with that explosion, and Blanc, who gave her the idea and the Xlear, just sat outside with the drunk and watched them all die in a fire
I aspire to have the editing skills of you E;R, your content is crazy and awesome.
I watched this video on mute just to give E;R views. This was a crap movie and unfortunately I can't abide watching a review of crap even if that review is well done
@Pantsmonster v6 yep. I do it and it helps. Very recommended. It increases testosterone too.
Just get Vegas. It's not that hard.
Why don’t we actually start making videos like him instead of just sitting here thanking him
And Then There Were None is one of my favorite books of all time. It's an excellent read for anyone who wants to see an isolated island whodunit done correctly.
I enjoyed the wii version
To be honest (spoilers) I thought the red putty trick was kind of a stretch. Didn’t break my suspension of disbelief but it sure strained it.
If you have the chance, watch the BBC miniseries for And Then There Were None. Its a very faithful adaptation, and dare I say improves upon it by adding more depth to each character murder, and the trauma associated with it. Not to say the book is terrible, no its amazing, only limited by its brevity.
@Reese Hendricksen I've actually watched it quite a few times. I did find it pretty faithful, but there were some changes I greatly disliked.
I guess I'll never have a better opportunity to bring this up;
The book was formerly known as "Ten Little Indians", and before that as "Ten Little [N word]s"
The Island they go to is called Indian Island and is shaped like the profile of an Indian's head (even with the updated title).
So... did these people originally go to a place called N*gg3r Island?
"Self-awareness" is the death of good storytelling.
If you don't care about the story you're telling, why should I?
You can be self-aware and still take yourself seriously. The problem is irony.
That suspense of dis bay leaf joke was friggin smart lol. The fact that it was all a lie and that the real aerialist did not die in that way; and yet, if you know nothing about the real person or about trapeze artists, that this joke would become a very example of suspension of disbelief... is just incredible. I though for a second that you happened to find the biggest coincidence of circumstance that aerialist happened to don a bay leaf crown, but you simply contrived which is even more respectable.
I know it sounds obvious but in a time of "putting videos in the background while you multitask", I feel like you do a really good job at keeping the viewer's attention with enough visual gags that are funny enough to be worth actually paying attention the whole way.

@@thesteelecrusader7778 are anti semites the type of cucks this tuber attracts? Thought the Pewdiepie cancelled shit was an unwarranted meme. Oh well
I love how in this Whodunnit, the answer is obvious from the start, and the only “twists” throughout the run time are for information we couldn’t have possibly guessed before, because Rian didn’t show us what we needed to see, but even if he had, the information ultimately culminates in nothing, literally no new info or insights, making both the info we were given prior incorrect, and the info we have now, superfluous.
Meaning, that throughout the entire runtime of this murder mystery, none of the info you are given matters. It is the perfect definition of time wasting.
Exactly. I rarely watch any modern movies these days.
No. It's efficient.
No! It's just dumb.
So Rian is a complete incompetent
I think people like me loved this movie cuz it's a whodunnit parody and that's what really makes the comedy aspect of it actually funny. It wasn't as funny as clue, but still pretty funny. I gotta say that even if Rians work is kinda lazy if at the end of the day if his message is that there is no message like in most of his movies. However, I still think it works if he tries to do a movie that's a parody/satire of the genre instead of trying to actually do one of those movies, like I would luv to see him make a spaceballs reboot/sequel instead of an actual Star Wars movie.

E;R is back and here to dunk on Roundhead Johnson once again, a great sequel to the previous arc.
Yes, indeed!
I dunno. It looks like he lost a bit of weight. His head isn't so round these days.
Also, why is having a round head an insult? I never understood that one.

E;R crafting a complete fabrication to explain the origin of the suspension of disbelief by suspending our disbelief is brilliant.
I love how I can have absolutely no desire to watch, talk about, or even be aware of the existence of a movie, but still desperately want to see what E;R says about it.
Thays the hallmark of a good content creator, youre here for him and not what he plays or talks about, people with such talent, charisma, skill with editing software or ability to create a fun narrative throughout the video that your willing to watch anything they put out
Blanc's frustration at the villain's plan mirrors my own at watching the first movie, where I made the same assumptions as you because I was told to expect an "insane twist" and not the obvious
I thought that Harlan had faked his own death as well, but that would have been too good of a twist.
let's be honest, if Ruin Johnson played Danganronpa, he would be the type to think Chihiro is a troon.
Danganronpa V3 has this whole thing where it makes you think Kaede's twin is the mastermind just to confuse you but thats what this movies main twist as lmao. Danganronpa v3 wasnt even good either
uwu
Oh God, so many people like that, they see some character crossdressing and they close their eyes to the text, same thing with the detective on Persona 4 xD
@@gamerito100 bruh do _some_ people really think that fucking Naoto is a troon?
@@-cams. Yes, sadly.
The number one defense I’ve seen of this movie is something about a glass onion being an ultimately meaningless object or something.
Good lord.
Im gonna name my movie “Bad Movie”.
If you criticize it you missed the point. 🤓
I mean, it's a pretty good movie imo, and a decent metaphor. The idea of a Glass Onion isn't that it's a meaningless object, it's a paradox. Something that seems to have layers upon layers, but once you start peeling you realize that you could see all the layers all at once. It's not that there's nothing at the center, it's that the entire thing was revealed to you without you even knowing.
@@ThatOneRandomSteve No you see all the layers all at once even before you begin and if you start thinking that the glass onion is an onion you get lost in thinking its deeper than it really is. So the glass onion is essentialy meaningless or hollow. And so is the movie.
@@jirieskelinen5607 But that's boring, and bad.

Rian Johnson is a real nigga. His life matters.
When your "hero" is a bigger villain than the villain.
Ryan Johnson subverting my expectations by making the most overcomplicated yet somehow most simple movies ever.
From someone who hasnt seen it. From this oerspective its pure nonsense written by someone who doesnt understand humans, their motivation or anything resembling logic or sense. Much like looper.
It's like Bay's Transformers movies, except people are actually buying into the "brilliant screenwriting."
thats the meaning of the phrase glass onion, its something simple that appears complex, its kinda the joke of the movie.
@@deadprivacy thats the point of the main investigator he fumbles ass backwards into success its part of the humour. Glass onion is also a phrase that means to overcomplicate something simple and mundane. Some of these movie critiques seeming really autistic.
@@WookieWarriorz the only joke is that ruin johnson is allowed near a film set.
"To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty"
Thats what im hearing...
Its a bad,bad film , not to mention antisemitic.
i just tried watching it since this video, and gave up about twenty minutes in...
Its awful.
The characters are bad. The dialogue is bad. The cinematography is bad, the direction is bad...but whats worse than anything is daniel craigs accent...unlistenable.. which is a surprise as he wasnt doing a great accent in logan lucky but to have an actor worsen his acting skills is quite a feat.
Is it supposed to be funny?
Is his accent part of the joke?
From the opening scene its "rich man bad"...
Its a very shallow attack on elon musk from what i can tell.
And as a black person, frankly its rather racist, the protagonist is a petty vengeful insult to my race...taking on the rich white bad man because muh greedy racist...
And to have the mona lisa destroyed as an act of petty vengeance as some sort of heroic act.
Its a vile trope of the petty stereotype of the petty karens of my colour...they do exist btw..ask tommy sotomayor but its that same cheap petty self entitlement dressed up as a hero.
Its not just bad...its kinda vile...
Ruin johnson is the guy who read to kill a mockingbird amd appoints himself as saviour of my people...
Its stunningly racist in this aspect...
People like johnson talk down to black people as though we are some sort of oppressed pets and hes our saviour...
If i met him...id slap him silly...
This movie was so concerned with talking about politics that it forgot it was a murder mystery.
It's actually pretty gross that Rian Johnson says he wants to make these movies and make them popular like Agatha Christie stories but he fundamentally forgets that the main point of those stories were solving a mystery, not shitting on caricatures of people with views Rian Johnson dislikes.
For a second I genuinely thought you were about to have a sponsor break, and then I remembered what channel I was watching
The selective intelligence of Miles is astounding.
He manages to convince numerous people to side with him against Andi in the face of perjury.
After revealing she had found the napkin he manages to orchestrate her murder before anyone else arrives. Stealing the napkin back.
He could have just taken the napkin and burned it in front of Andi avoiding the murder completely. If he didn't think the murder was unavoidable he could have burned it on the spot after the murder. That's checkmate right there and the movie doesn't exist.
He could have refused LeBlanc being his invite was unintended and a prank.
He could have refuse Helen/Andi after knowing he killed her citing the invites were sent before the legal issues and she was supposed to be disinvited. Those are both checkmate.
Why does Helen take the hammer to Andi's party invite? Does she have some sort of precognition of Miles' guilt around her sisters murder?
Miles tries to murder Helen/Andi shortly after she gets to the island but does so in one of the most backasswards ways. He could have just OD'd her on the sleeping pills + alcohol. He could have slit her wrists while filing put the bathtub. He could have tossed one of the many fax machines into the bathtub after filing it up. Instead he opts to suffocate her in a garage with a running vehicle which would require most time possible give the car needs time to convert the oxygen to carbon di and mono-oxide to suffocate her.
Any number of these events could easily occur but the plot requires Miles to make the most self-destructive options possible. The mystery isn't complex, it's not simple. The mystery and motivations are incoherent and convoluted which requires the viewer to do the work for the writer to establish _way_ somethings go the way they do rather than giving the viewer indications and evidence to push them along the path the writer desires. Instead Glass Onion gives you nothing when it's not actively lying to you.
I must say that the social commentary regarding race here is truly stunning and brave. That "POCs" would bereave the entire world of centuries of cultural advancement for petty personal grievances, just to feel better about themselves... we thought Kanye took the overdose, but Ruin is doing way more in plain sight and he just keeps getting away with it!
I just don't understand how everyone survived the explosion at the end
The same way you can fire a bullet with enough energy to knock a woman flat on the ground out of a handgun without a traumatic wrist injury, and also have that bullet stopped by a notebook. These people do not know or care how reality functions because they don't live there.

They know so little about guns they literally think they're magic toys
Sadly enough their retardation affects legislation by equally retarded government officials...
I hope Yee becomes a recurring character in all of E;R's future videos. Truly the best dynamic duo this side of Marx and Engels.
The island being burnt to the ground could provide the villian(s) with a get out of jail free card. Since there is probably trace evidence that she did it and several witnesses to corroborate: everything that happend on the island can just be pinned on her and the detective.
The ending is just Rian deciding the heroine of his murder mystery story is going to openly commit crimes and not be punished for them because "LE SUBVERT XDDD" is more important than his story feeling like it still takes place in reality.
"But they're too dumb to use that, look at how dumb we made these people look"
They weren't too dumb to DENY SEEING THE LETTER BURN, though. Why not just keep doing that?
The parts with Blanc pointing out how dumb Miles' plans were kinda made me feel like it was Rian trying to excuse his own writing by saying "it's supposed to be dumb!" Really subverted my expectations again Rian I actually went in expecting something decent and just got something dumb instead bravo.
Can't wait for Pillar of Garbage to make a video where they claim you LIED to us about Glass Onion and doesn't explain why outside of shallow strawmans.
I've heard a bunch of times how Rian didn't lie, it was just creative editing, but then Critical Drinker, Robothead, and E;R are all saying the audience is being lied to. I don't want to have to watch this shitty movie. Could you explain to me what the hell is going on in that scene and who is right?
@@DarthMerlin The fact that I look forward to bad movies, just to see my favourite creators rip them to shreds in their reviews really says a lot about the time we live in.
@@cymes82 What it says is that we are being screwed over by the entertainment industry, which is giving us so few good things to like that we have to resort to dunking on stuff just to entertain ourselves.
@@DarthMerlin It's not like really lying. It's like giving someone a jigsaw puzzle to solve but with only 5% of the pieces while you hide the rest till the end.
@@A_Random_Ghost That sounds about right.
I love how they had La Blankey playing as the murderer in Among Us, and Rian thought he was supposed to solve the crime.
Hollywood still doesn’t know how to play video games.
Or perhaps it was portraying that Blanc doesn't know what he's doing in the game?

But then our resident funnyman E;R wouldn't have a video to make that i can laugh at.
That this movie treats iconoclasm as a morally acceptable act to spite your enemies is the most reprehensible part.
I love how E;R's production quality just skyrocketed recently. The ending was honestly brilliant.
Brewish financing
The Bay Leaf story was pretty strong. Nice setup and payoff.
My friends like this movie, and I have to bite my tongue, because I know they’ll just say “Yeah, it’s supposed to be stupid”, when I’m talking about how it’s badly written.
When the internet was still young-ish, there was an adage we had on 4chan: "[doing thing] ironically doesn't mean you're not still [doing thing]". Usually it was used for shitposting ("shitposting ironically doesn't mean you're not..."), but it found use for other things.
It applies perfectly here.
Just because you're making a stupid movie ironically doesn't mean you're not still making a stupid movie.
E;R is really going big now. Even Kanye Ye Ye make a cameo/intervention here. AMONG all people, he blessed US with this amazing video. Holy subvertions, Robinman!
18:18 The thing about Danganronpa's twin twist when opposed to Glass Onion is that when you go back, there is AMPLE foreshadowing that "Junko" is sus. Looking off from her images in the magazine, reacting positively if you get and give her a military ration as a gift, things of that nature you get given at the start.
I said the SAME THING TOO! Not only that, but they establish the 16th student very quickly and the pierced holes in "Freckled Junko" via spears comes to bite the ass of Junko later on too.
Yeah, that's because Danganronpa is better than this horse shit movie hahaha.
Ryan 'Gaijin' Johnson wishes he was capable of creating anything on par with Danganronpa.
I mean, it was pretty obvious that some fuckery was going on. The mastermind had to be one of the students, and they had to be the first student to die so that they could control Monokuma. The only mystery left was how she faked her death.
I hope Ye stays a prominent character in E;R videos like strawnerd
P.S. Loved your participation on the EFAP episode discussing Glass Onion
Y guy will forever be my favorite.
I kinda miss old E;R already. This Red guy is good, but its just not the same with out the hitler quotes.
I hope ye remembers to put the cotten in his ears when the msm tries to take him to the sunken place again
@@lupusalbus3795 I think he had to stop as his channel was getting demonitised every video.

Glass Onion is a perfect name for the movie because on the surface it looks pretty and interesting, but breaks easily on impact, holds nothing and much like Fool’s Gold, it’s worth nothing.

Keep up the fantastic work.

I found Knives Out's ending to be super predictable because according to the rules of woke writing there is no way they would allow the immigrant latina woman be the killer not matter what. Then they have the most jerkish white male and it's like, "Gee, I sure do wonder who the killer might be?"
Yeah, this is the second mystery in a row where he went "oh this guy's the one, wait no it isn't OH NO WAIT"
I hope we get a third one so I can see if he tries it again and gets flak for it

I know there was a bit of a debate on EFAP about whether or not Miles would send the victim an invitation. I side with E;R but the real issue is that he only sends her an invite so the script can get the twin sister on the island. It's like Rian saw the contrivances in Rise of Skywalker, and decided he wanted to one-up J.J
it kills me how underrated Monk is to this day.
Monk was so good man. Surprised I never heard anyone complain about him. You can't even say the jokes aren't made at his expense but the tone it gives off takes away the offensiveness completely.
I still walk around touching parking meters if it helps
Another cool part about monk is that he actually works through his issues throughout the series, the ending showing how he grew to sleep in the middle of his bed and wear a different, looser style of shirt for example, getting over his ticks that held him down for so long
@@wotruannwah5678 Man, I wish they would repeat Monk over this side of the Atlantic, instead all we get is King of Queens...
I haven't watched, but from this review it is clear that Ryan has no concept of excellence. As E;R calls the Mona Lisa "an invaluable treasure of humanity" the hero of the movie can only describe it as "the world's most FAMOUS painting", as in: The Mona Lisa isn't intrinsically valuable, it is valuable because a lot of people know about it. This explains so much about Rian Johnson and what he cares about.
Even using Monk for cutaway gave a really simple comparison how *easy* a whodunnit can be. On a weekly basis that show was willing to put the solution to the puzzle right in front of us and even the twists were generally easy to follow. In any case thanks for another great review, in a better world hacks wouldn't get millions tossed at them to make stories that jangle keys and expect us to lap it up.
Mr. Monk is mystery done right, combined with comedy to boot.
I thought it was fun but felt it was silly for reasons I couldn't figure out. Then my friend saw it and told me it was one of her favourite movies ever and I was confused. Then all the videos on youtube about how it's a masterpiece started popping up. And I was further confused. Honestly it feels like a circle jerk of people who care about spectacle and contrived complexity they can use to sound smart rather than anything actually worthwhile.
Thanks for making this video and pointing out all the things that make this movie stupid too.
And thanks for the shoutout to Angela Lansbury for being the only good cameo in this. Loved Murder, She Wrote and she deserved her last cameo to be in a much better movie
I liked it a lot because it was goofy so it kept me from thinking I should take it seriously, but seeing someone take it seriously and deconstruct it so easily makes me actually wonder if I am just a retard
Weirdly enough, it's harder for a lot of people to imagine that Rian Johnson could just have made mistakes in his script and covered them up while filming the movie.
No, he HAS to be a genius because the movie *looks* smart and intelligent.
It properly not even the "complexity" - but much more shallow then that. She most likely was bedazzled by both the movie's setting and cringe eccentric characters. A bit like how JJ Abram's can get away with rehashing older movie's plotline (Star Trek), because his movies are filled with actions scenes and lens flares.
Seems to me eye candy alone is enough to make any modern audience feel that whatever they are watching is the "best movie ever"
"To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty"
Tbf i don't saw any praise to the Glass Onion, RLM shits on it and no one else talks about it.
