I feel Felix saying "these are all thoughts I had when I was 15" about Aaron Sorkin, because I was the same way with MovieBob, which is an even sadder choice.
As a former musician I find it utterly bizarre that they now have these for instruments like the violin. You literally can't do a masterclass without receiving direct feed back from the master.
it sets up the students for so much disappointment, too. I can’t imagine if instead of learning from teachers, I’d spent 7 years trying to learn violin from videos. I probably would have quit from the discomfort and awful sound without getting my bad habits corrected irl
@@chumbucket6989 Hopefully I think that most of the people who might be interested in this would know better. In comparison to other subjects it seems like this is more targeted towards intermediate students who just want the experience of a masterclass with a great artist. It still doesn't make any fucking sense though.
"He can't quite figure out why his stuff doesn't sparkle...and it's because it's absent other people from beginning to end. They're all gone. It's just him." Aaron Sorkin is the white Tyler Perry.
no...no...the reason hes not tyler perry is that ALL of his movies are imbued with a VERY real dialogue rhythm from his hometown in Louisiana, So his characters while dramatic and funny, are relatable on a COMMUNAL level. he speaks more for all the black people that didn't leave the south during the great migration. Sorkin speaks mainly to the Gen X PMC of the Atlantic northeast, thus why studio 60 was so awkward but the Newsroom killed. theres no real connection between the characters beyond what were shown and told its....look, Im high AF, im gonna go eat this Sugar Cookie Toast Crunch and pass out. one love.

Felix is mostly submerged, only his eyes and nose are above the water, Virgil is only partially visible off to the side, sitting on the toilet shitting out his doodoo ass.
The whole "Capitalist Guided Meditation" sounds like an Achewood bit come to life "You receive a text message in the corner of the screen from Adam Smith himself. It says 'Great Job'."
It's shocking that he likes Tarantino because his movies are driven massively by characters. His last movie is about two hours of it's three hour runtime of characters either revealing or trying to hide aspects of themselves. Most of the problems in Tarantino movies are caused by the flaws of the characters rather than the other way around. Not as much of a tragedy of errors like a coen or safdie brothers film but it's still in most of his work. I hope it genuinely isn't just the superficial reason that Tarantino is good at snappy dialogue.
My favorite part about it is that Shenmue is like a genuinely horrible game that isn't fun to play at all. Like I've never seen anyone who didn't grow up with Shenmue play it and think it was anything but infuriating and boring.
@@ninjabunny9526 I was so young and blown away by Dreamcast that I even thought Seaman was a good game lol.shenmue was quite tedious and did have a cool Virtua fighteresque fight system that you got to play all of four times through out.but we can't forget this was first game with quick time events..
Do people like that genuinely think the greatest most orgasmic shit in the world is some asshole calling you from a golf club car park to tell you that you did a good job like you're an insecure preteen?
1:00:40 that “weird 50s way” of talking is called the “Transatlantic Accent” - it was intentionally created by movie studios to combine (what they considered) the best aspects of American & British English dialects. And in order to make their films more accessible ($$$) in both the US and UK, and to generally sound more erudite, actors had to actually learn/perfect this way of speaking. jus so u kno
That's not quite right. Old Hollywood did encourage actors to talk this, mostly because it was considered "classy" or a quick way to indicate an upper class character. Originally, it's derived from the mode of speech taught in New England private schools in the late 19th and early 20th century, so this is probably why that association exists.

I've noticed that Chapo really loves their oafs. The fastest way for them to turn their opinion around on somone from loathesome disgust to endearment is whether said person is pathetic or not.
I would pay so much money to listen to Felix do a deep dive on David Cage's terrible video game career Heavy Rain is the least bad game hes ever made and its fucking terrible.
Felix's breakdown of how every other big "game" or star game maker from 2012-2015 was just some guy or gal who hated the medium and tried to "elevate it" by turning it into a crappy art project was on point.
The poker Masterclass with Daniel Negreanu is supposed to be excellent and poker's not one of those things that you are either a scrub or that you do professionally and there's no in between.
I think it is fair to say than Yu Suzuki circa the late 90s had a passion for video games, and ambitious vision shows in the the first two Shenmue games even though story is a really bad imitation of a martial arts movie. It was a technically impressive game with honestly decent gameplay if you could get over some of its clunkiness (there is absolutely no excuse for Shenmue 3 though). David Cage by comparison, clearly despises all the conventions of gaming, so instead of making a traditional game with cinematic elements like Shenmue. Cage makes moderately interactive movies that eschew nearly anything resembling game mechanics. There are a multitude of games out there that qualify as cinematic experiences or are heavily story focused but are still video games. But Cage is clearly only interested in the movie aspect
Graphic design is my passion
and your calling
It's beautiful
Sorkin writes every character like they're rehearsing a past argument in their head at 2 am
A sweaty long haired pacing back and forth coke drip type of past argument rehearsal, while endlessly wiping away the foggy precipitation from his glasses.
"Well, the jerk store called, and they're running out of YOU."
Sorkin should make a show about Jordan Peterson.
The most important man of all time
@Gaydolf Honkler Pretty much, yeah.
@Gaydolf Honkler He should read a book about getting his shit together or something.

@@marcuswalters8093 yeah but I'd at least like to pretend that the shithead isn't that smooth brained and would be consistent with his own dumb rules.
We had to watch all the Sorkin ones in my film class. I came to watch this immediately after
Felix incorrectly saying Hard Rain and then Shenmo... inexcusable
Yeah Felix is now cancelled tbh
Yeah it took her mentioning the dead kid and the asthma pump for me to know what they were talking about
@sfar1 I'm pretty sure he meant heavy rain for PS3.
And I think the other was shenmue for xbox

Hard Rain and Schenmo sound great.
fuck that guided meditation was horrifying lmao
Finally some people who get that Chris Isaak rules
I'm high
If all of Sorkin's characters have no history, then they're all just basically replicants from Blade Runner.
Nah the replicants are at least sorts human

Well, that took a sad turn in the end!
masterclass is the paid verison of TED
Masterclass isn’t a class, it’s a useless supplement that only works if you were practicing anyway
Okay hold on, is that guided meditation at 22:30 not a joke? That must be satire! I mean ... ADAM SMITH comes out and tells them 'great job?'
I've noticed that Chapo really loves their oafs. The fastest way for them to turn their opinion around on somone from loathesome disgust to endearment is whether said person is pathetic or not.
it's not hard rain, it's heavy rain!! but yea it is universally regarded by thinking feeling people as dogshit
Sorkin’s only good character that actually is his own worst enemy is Mark Zuckerberg. I can’t tell if that’s fitting or ironic.

Also; my friend works at a pub that Jason Mamoa is a regular at. She hates his guts because she constantly has to tell him off for his antics.
I disliked because the lyrics of ElChapo mention weed beans dollars and queso and I am lactose intolerant.
Are those the words? LOL!! I thought he was saying, "Bringing in dollars and pesos." That's embarrassing.
@@La_Ru-yg8es no, but that's how i heard it for about 3 years. I think it's actually 3 billion dollars in queso
Amber's insight into Sorkinmakes his attempted suicide that much more tragic....
wait did he try to kill himself? I cant find anything about it by googling
At 1:14:28 that sounded exactly like something Nick Mullen would say

No wonder Amber hates animal rights activists... she was a vegetarian for more than semester.
gone home is good, shenmue sucks
Shenmue is at best a nice time capsule but it's utterly irrelevant in a world where Yakuza exists.
