I like how that actress talks like the movie was great, but then under her breath says everything was basically stupid. She's mastered the art of Hollywood interviews.
You can't really expect a actor to say the movie he just played in was shit and no one should see it. Why are people surprised that actors don't want to sabotage their own career.
I love Dianne Kruger, and just watching her kind of snap because she knows she's way too good for this crap is the best thing I've ever seen. How did they get her in on this anyway, or Saoirse Ronan?
I just wanna say i fucking LOVE how you find the interviews of the actors bullshiting making stuff up and being awkward its the best and probably takes hours to watch all that stuff
DennisJ (The Last Methbender) Yeah, I feel like Adam doesn't get enough credit for wading through tons of interviews about something he doesn't even like to find good content. He's one of the best and hardworking TH-camrs IMO
Can we just give it up to Diane Kruger for a second? She does a fantastic job of selling this movie to it's demographic and taking jabs at the movie at in the same interview.
@@jacindaellison3363 I think because they wanted to give the impression that these aliens are religious or something. Either that or to create some false philosophy and brainwashed sheeple into thinking the movie is smart.
@@lorddrayvon1426 lol, wow. Those aliens come of as being pretentious. I mean, why would they feel as though they need to help human kind be perfected. What are they getting out of it outside of a body to hijack? They could've the aliens conquer earth, make the ppl follow their culture(dressing up as they do, eating what they eat, ect) and give the ppl q choice: accept an alien's consciousness or be killed.
With Melanie being the only human to persuade an alien with feelings, does that mean that the rest of humanity had boring, emotionless memories? There are people with bigger, harder emotions than 'oh I met a sexy man once'. And Melanie isn't the only teenager with those emotions. If these aliens are swayed by feelings, their whole takeover wouldn't work, because they'd sympathize with almost all humans.
Actually in the book she is NOT the only of her kind... in the book there are a total of 3 others who have limited control over their minds and bodies and 1 of those is actually working with another free human tribe to protect them. The other 2 are being over ruled by their alien but are freed... only one lives and is a bit chatty after being freed. Also cut from the book is a scene where they are on a supply haul and they meet an alien couple with a completely human kid that they treat with love and compassion and play with on the play ground. Given these examples exist it opens up the possibility that many other cases also exist.
@Galily The book was ok... it was more akin to "Enemy Mine" sorta... where you got someone who is learning that her enemy isn't what she thought they were. MOST of the book is Wanda and Melanie inner monologue. In a nut shell the main character Wanda finds out they are horrible invasive creatures and not the peaceful altruistic people they think they are. She gradually learns that their invasion of earth was wrong. It's ok book... nothing ground breaking but a lot better than the twilight series. It is also MUCH better then the Chemist book she did.
I am frankly surprised they decided to film the host because it is NOT the sortta thing that translate to film well... 2 people talking in their head to each other... not much action and a bit slow paced for what is expected in a movie
If "unreasonable" means "unlogical", then the alien is correct, human beings are objectively prone to emotional outbursts that hamper more logical solutions. So, to a creature that is defined more by cold rationality rather than emotion, calling human beings "unreasonable", is in fact, reasonable. Whether taking over a species is MORAL, though, is an entirely different question. It could just be that the aliens in question do not consider taking over a species as immoral, because they do not use the same framework as human beings (tend to) do.
Yes, it's essentially Invasion of the Body Snatchers meets Stargate SG-1. The latter show had both evil and good alien creatures that could either completely take over or share a host human body. I have a feeling Meyer was channel surfing sometime in the early 2000s while worrying about how to stay relevant after Twilight.
The concept of a cold, heartless alien, living in a human body, and learning human emotions? Yeah. That does sound like a good concept. In fact, it sounds incredibly similar to Under the Skin.

gorrow1990 There are several psychological phenomenon in which women seek out and romanticize abuse. It often ties back to an abusive childhood, and in adult life, they find security in abusive relationships. They're not being creepy, they're stuck in a cycle of abuse. at least, that's what I've found about the subject.
Not every woman is stuck in that mindset, just stephanie meyer in this case. It is really gross. Especially when the audience they are catering to is for young teenage girls.
All my hate for Stephanie Meyer for destroying hope for decent women has simmered down because E.L. James is a bigger evil, 50 Shades just knocks it out of the park.
If Saoirse Ronan is excellent at doing a General American accent, then why not have Wanderer speak with an Irish accent and Melanie with an American one.

I would, for once, love to see actors in crappy movies answer interview questions honestly and say "the movie is a piece of crap and I wish I never did it" or something like that.
George Clooney apologizing for Batman and Robin comes to mind. But generally, for professionals, it's just bad practice to badmouth previous employers and the stuff they were involved in. Acting is a contractual sort of job, bouncing around from employer to employer for every job. Companies want to know that they can trust you, and a big part of that is being diplomatic and not talk shit, even if it's well-deserved shit talking. It's not fair, but it's career suicide to make a habit of that because you'll get blacklisted real quick. So actors are kind of forced to cover their asses by kissing ass. Unless it's such a universally accepted bad thing and a lot of time has passed, in which case you see more examples of writers, directors, and actors expressing more honest opinions about the work they were involved in.
Mr. Darko That was after the fact, I mean when the movie is first coming out. Oh I know it's just really awkward to hear them trying to verbally twist and turn their way through an interview. You know they know the movie is crap but can't just come out and say "the movie is crap, don't watch it".
Thiyashi Koththigoda That it is. I'm sure they can't just come out and say bad things (contracts and all) so they have to be more careful about it. Kudos to those who slip it in. :)

LMAO right? The abrupt sound of the tire screeching and then pure silence is just too much. Slight turn and the entire car gets tossed around like a tumbleweed in the desert. (badumtss)
Jordan Etherington lol. Yeah, basically. I like the chrome Lotus, but that's because cars be cool. But pointless. I'll just go watch any other movie. I randomly watch movies on Netflix, and I finish all of them... For reasons... It was terrible. Still a better love story than Twilight(haven't seen that though, thank the Maker)
Haha, I'm reading through Animorphs for the first time right now, and I'm 17. And it's still pretty good, enough for the bitter millennial critic I am. Thinking of the Host Aliens(whatever they're called, I can't seem to remember) as Yeerks has me grinning ear to ear. Oh my god, does that make those big spider things Hork-Bajir? Or Andalites?! Oh my god.
About the car crash. At least in "In Time" the car crash looks somewhat natural because it drove off a cliff, even though it looks clunky as shit, its still somewhat natural. In "The host" the car starts off on a mild drift on a flat road and starts going to the left of the road, then it proceeds to thrust in the air like the car is sentient and wants to kill itself, and tumbles to the right side of the road
+Daniel Christmas She literally mentioned laundry right after the comment, and at the end mentioned "bright, shiny chrome"... How can all of you have missed that?
+Brandon Trollsten you are actually not supposed to wear t shirts and shorts in the desert. Thats one of the fastest ways to die. Look at the bedouins. Long flowy robes with the least skin exposure as possible to conserve fluid.
+FourthDerivative It's a combination of the color and the way it's worn that makes black robes the best to wear in hot climates. Black fabric absorbs more heat, but it also absorbs more light than white fabric, so less sunlight reaches you skin. Now, the additional heat that is absorbed by black fabric only matters if it reaches the skin, which is why Bedouins wear loose robes. Warm air rises and is replaced by colder air. The hotter the air, the faster it rises. Dark fabric causes the air to rise very quickly, so it creates a sort of "fanning" effect where the hot air is constantly replaced by cooler air. It's imperative that you wear the fabric loosely in a tube-ish fashion, so that colder air can get sucked in at the bottom and be transported along your body to the top as it is heated.
A thought occurred to me: Since the first time the human host talks back is in front of a mirror, why not have the actual reflection talk back to her? That would allow for things like feeling creepy and allow the actor to better deliver the emotions through expressions and body language.
Crowley9 In all honesty, that would be a bit cliche, because why in a practical sense would Wanderer imagine her reflection representing Melanie and talking back to her? It would probably work better if Melanie talked through the body, but when she did, the camera cut to the reflection of Melanie without the fucked up eyes and the cut back to Wanderer when she talks, kind of like how Gollum speaks with Smeagle in Lord of the Rings
Sméagol* And the thing about any trick shot or effect in a film is, it does not matter how cliché or stupid it is, just as long as you do it well. Problem in this film is, pretty clearly everyone except Soarise (sp?) Ronan was phoning it in.
9:46 why is melanie suddenly heavily southern?? And Diane struggling to come up with anything besides "theres 'feelings and hot people" in that interview is beautiful. Yup, thats all there is to Meyer's 'writing'
Who the fuck can put on a straight face and decide to make a movie adaptation of a writer who's target audience are young single teens/Moms with no tastes in literature?
My mom went on a date with my step dad a few years back to go see this movie. They thought it was going to be a fun sci fi, only movie they've walked out on.
I just realized the premise of this story is blatantly ripped off from Arthur C. Clarke's Childhood's End. Thats the dude who wrote the novel 2001: A Space Odyssey.
Freezie Pop yeah cuase it does appeal do a lot of people even though what you said makes it sounds like i would be puuuuurfect for young women i mean men doesn't like twilight some do but like 87 people out 100 would not like it
+TheKeyser94 yes but the funny thing then is that in really good movies the interviews are also the same and the actors are kind of hesitant to give it a well supported, more enthusiastic praise.
I can't believe the guy who directed Lord of War also directed The Host. Damn. What a step down. (Although I must say he wasn't working with good source material)
***** It's alright. Definitely better than this shit. The only complaint I have is it was originally shot in Korean, so you'll see the words they say not match what their mouths do.
2:40 Man, notice how she barely says anything particularly meaningful or good about what "a Stephanie Meyer story" entails. It's almost like she's trying hard not to say anything that could be construed as _negative,_ but at the same time can't actually bring herself to compliment it too much.

I've honestly seen fanfics on ao3 and ff better than her shit
and when someone writes fanfics of her things we get stuff like 50 shades
end me
I mean... If you really want me to...

i literally laughed out loud when the volvo just jumped into the air for no reason
Diane Kruger does not want to be there.
Gotta pay the bills somehow though.
At 11:15 when the car flipped over I LOST MY SHIT because the audio editing was so funny.
LMAO right? The abrupt sound of the tire screeching and then pure silence is just too much. Slight turn and the entire car gets tossed around like a tumbleweed in the desert. (badumtss)
lmao SKRRT!! *car flips*
You are literally the only critic whose videos consistently make me laugh. Keep them comin my friend
Oh, so The Host is like Animorphs, except terrible
You know, without the cool fights...or interesting setting...or cool aliens, or thoughtful moral and philosophical implications, and mature themes.
Jordan Etherington lol. Yeah, basically. I like the chrome Lotus, but that's because cars be cool. But pointless. I'll just go watch any other movie. I randomly watch movies on Netflix, and I finish all of them... For reasons... It was terrible. Still a better love story than Twilight(haven't seen that though, thank the Maker)
Jordan Etherington You should read the book.
Haha, I'm reading through Animorphs for the first time right now, and I'm 17. And it's still pretty good, enough for the bitter millennial critic I am. Thinking of the Host Aliens(whatever they're called, I can't seem to remember) as Yeerks has me grinning ear to ear.
Oh my god, does that make those big spider things Hork-Bajir? Or Andalites?! Oh my god.
Jordan Etherington or dank memes
To be fair, the eye effect the hosts have is actually kinda cool.
Portal Freak Too bad everything else about the movie ruins it.
And those cars are sick too.
That is fair. But the movies still ass
I remember when I was 10...
Could we all agree that the eye effect and the cars are kinda neat and the rest is really, really horrible
Oh my goodness... When that guy was renaming Wanderer, I was saying to myself "don't say Wanda, don't say Wanda..."
He said Wanda.
At least he didn't say Wakanda. Or Rwanda.
"Remember, if you die - and *especially* if it's from fall damage - it's only because you really didn't want to live." words to live by.
2:59 - "young girls and hot guys", The cringe hit me harder than a train.
It hits me harder than my stepdad.
I'm three years late but you marked the words like, AFTER she said it
@@TheNinja94a True
About the car crash. At least in "In Time" the car crash looks somewhat natural because it drove off a cliff, even though it looks clunky as shit, its still somewhat natural. In "The host" the car starts off on a mild drift on a flat road and starts going to the left of the road, then it proceeds to thrust in the air like the car is sentient and wants to kill itself, and tumbles to the right side of the road
Can't begin to fathom how she manged to get the car to ASCEND FROM THE ROAD INTO mid-air then for it to proceed into the ground.
LMAO "Stand aside large black man, let me kick down the door"
Wait, isn't white the BEST color to wear in the desert, since it reflects sunlight?
Consider that you're wearing a suit, it'd be different if it were white shorts and a white t-shirt lol
I assume that she said that because her clothes kept getting dirty, and having to have them cleaned. Or she's just stupid.
+Daniel Christmas She literally mentioned laundry right after the comment, and at the end mentioned "bright, shiny chrome"...
How can all of you have missed that?
+Brandon Trollsten you are actually not supposed to wear t shirts and shorts in the desert. Thats one of the fastest ways to die. Look at the bedouins. Long flowy robes with the least skin exposure as possible to conserve fluid.
+FourthDerivative It's a combination of the color and the way it's worn that makes black robes the best to wear in hot climates. Black fabric absorbs more heat, but it also absorbs more light than white fabric, so less sunlight reaches you skin. Now, the additional heat that is absorbed by black fabric only matters if it reaches the skin, which is why Bedouins wear loose robes. Warm air rises and is replaced by colder air. The hotter the air, the faster it rises. Dark fabric causes the air to rise very quickly, so it creates a sort of "fanning" effect where the hot air is constantly replaced by cooler air. It's imperative that you wear the fabric loosely in a tube-ish fashion, so that colder air can get sucked in at the bottom and be transported along your body to the top as it is heated.
"A wanderer such as yourself, there must have been a name." Pause. Wanderer opens her mouth. *advertisement*
A thought occurred to me: Since the first time the human host talks back is in front of a mirror, why not have the actual reflection talk back to her? That would allow for things like feeling creepy and allow the actor to better deliver the emotions through expressions and body language.
Crowley9 In all honesty, that would be a bit cliche, because why in a practical sense would Wanderer imagine her reflection representing Melanie and talking back to her? It would probably work better if Melanie talked through the body, but when she did, the camera cut to the reflection of Melanie without the fucked up eyes and the cut back to Wanderer when she talks, kind of like how Gollum speaks with Smeagle in Lord of the Rings
Ora Saikatsu Oh yeah. There are NOOOOO cliches in THIS movie.
Sméagol*
And the thing about any trick shot or effect in a film is, it does not matter how cliché or stupid it is, just as long as you do it well. Problem in this film is, pretty clearly everyone except Soarise (sp?) Ronan was phoning it in.
Crowley9 m
Because that would be a bit harder than just having a voice over.
Re watch the whole 3 part series and take a shot for every time Adam shows that yellow face thing meme
and the _ seconds later screen
+Trevor Smith i got smashed with vodka and rum because of this
+Trevor Smith Don´t forget to include that face at 6:55
and uses spingleberb music
I forgot the name of that meme
12:52 That's no rock, that's a piece of foam painted to look like wood.
I need Adam's 10-30 second time skip power in my life
We all do
[something, something, ripples]
Za warudo
King Crimson
To this day I have never known why Saoirse Ronan said yes to this script. She's so much better than anything Meyer could think up.
Rowan J Coleman I don’t get why they said yes to making another Stephane Meyer book-movie
Hey Rowan, darling .... go fuck yourself
James Charlton no need to be rude here
Squidy, its cool... I know the dude in real life, a good friend.
Just randomly found his comment on youtube, thought id be rude and say hello
James Charlton it’s cool
"Why is everything Chrome?"
"Everything is chrome in the future!"
Firefox died out unfortunately
god, diane kruger is a grand master of politely talking shit about directors.
It's very important that when two people are in love, they speak to each other without moving their tongues, and breathe only during words
9:46 why is melanie suddenly heavily southern??
And Diane struggling to come up with anything besides "theres 'feelings and hot people" in that interview is beautiful. Yup, thats all there is to Meyer's 'writing'
ET’S UH GOOD THANG AH CAHN
Yer darn tootin’
Stephanie Meyer has a bad view of women.
She's actually a male child.
mae2424
What do you mean? Are you talking trans, or..?
No. I just said something random.
mae2424
.....Thanks for your contribution then, buddy.
What else is new?
Who the fuck can put on a straight face and decide to make a movie adaptation of a writer who's target audience are young single teens/Moms with no tastes in literature?
+Colleb Collins anyone who wants money
My mom went on a date with my step dad a few years back to go see this movie. They thought it was going to be a fun sci fi, only movie they've walked out on.
Roland Rice you've made a great decision walking out.
Preach
Sooo
Since everyone's "perfect."
They changed her too tall and blonde.
Alrighty.
You're getting funnier and funnier.
I love you.

_"Everything is chrome in the future!"_ =0D
-Spongebob Squarepants.
I just realized the premise of this story is blatantly ripped off from Arthur C. Clarke's Childhood's End. Thats the dude who wrote the novel 2001: A Space Odyssey.
2:45 that takes incredible acting and self control not to basically laugh at that question but to give a non offense answer. Good on you Miss
Freezie Pop yeah cuase it does appeal do a lot of people even though what you said makes it sounds like i would be puuuuurfect for young women i mean men doesn't like twilight some do but like 87 people out 100 would not like it
Everything in the future is chrome?
Of course! And every piece of furniture and clothing is white! It's like dirt doesn't exist in the future.
+Mateta14 I guess Stephanie Meyer really liked that one Spongebob episode.
Nick Adipietro IKR?
shiny and chrome on their road to Valhalla
Ah, classic Squidward....

Hey! I loved this movie! It's how I fell asleep during restless nights.
You are a very easy person to please aren't you?
+Zach Welch You are one of those guys who simply don't get a joke aren't you ?
+Roman Lovič and you're clearly someone who I'm gonna despise
+Zach Welch Be my guest.I couldn't care less ;)
Roman Lovič then we have no reason to talk now do we? we both just wasted our time and my time is better spent elsewhere
>"Might if I call you... Wander?"
>*cue in Shadow of the Colossus battle theme*
Love it when Adam goes on rants about how love is chemicals and heaven isn't real
Humans are the most intelligent, merciless, adaptive beings on the planet. How the blueberry fuck did we get taken over by space hippies?
Seeing how hypcrite they are I seriously doubt that they are hippies.
SJW`s
Kevon Percell I support you sir. We must stop the SJW else we all we be ALIEN FREAKS
hey man dolphins are pretty awful
GDIrifleman Conner " *on the planet* "
these actor interviews are the same for every movie, no matter how good or bad.. always some vaguely optimistic response
S1nwar That is the basic Marketing strategy for every movie good or bad.
+TheKeyser94 yes but the funny thing then is that in really good movies the interviews are also the same and the actors are kind of hesitant to give it a well supported, more enthusiastic praise.
Man, what a nice old guy. He just gives her the car, no need to ask anything or money. #StanOldManWithCar
I can't believe the guy who directed Lord of War also directed The Host. Damn. What a step down. (Although I must say he wasn't working with good source material)
Kei but if he was a good director he would've turned it down.
It's another Stephenie Meyer teen rape fetish book, so let's be honest, that guy just saw the dollar signs.
Anyone feel like people aren't blinking enough in this movie or something? Everyone's eyes are fucking wide to show off the contact lenses they got.
Oh wow... that is way too weird now that i am looking for it...
It kinda makes sense with the alien dudes, kinda like how the main character in Ghost In The Shell never blinks
That slurping noise effect when the two were kissing never fails to make me chuckle
Your Photoshopping skills never stop amazing me...
"If you're a species that puts logic ahead of everything else, there's no room for vanity"
Thank you for that
We all know from SpongeBob that everything in the future is chrome.
I liked the other Korean movie called "The Host" better than this.
***** It's alright. Definitely better than this shit. The only complaint I have is it was originally shot in Korean, so you'll see the words they say not match what their mouths do.
Loved that movie. Probably one of my favorite creature feature. It was terrifying in some parts, but it was also hilarious.
This move isn't Korean.
There's a Korean movie called "The Host" which is actually excellent.
***** That's better.
Hey! Would you consider reviewing The 5th Wave?
Please yes.
+Tim Clifford I just wanted to see him talk shit about it tbh
yessss

Oh let me have my fun. lol
THE FUUUTURE
so the host was actually inspired by spongebob? now this story makes a lot more sense.
Why is her memories in 3rd person, like WTF?

Probably because it would take more effort to try and film a decent first person view.

of course, obviously.
And everybody has a generic last name that's either a sci-fi quip!

That's sponge bob future
Oof mad Max and sponge bob flashbacks
2:40 Man, notice how she barely says anything particularly meaningful or good about what "a Stephanie Meyer story" entails. It's almost like she's trying hard not to say anything that could be construed as _negative,_ but at the same time can't actually bring herself to compliment it too much.
"This race made everything very perfect so we made my character blonde, I'm comfortable saying this."
