I handle a lot of questions on this week's Q&A. We start by talking a little Star Wars. Specifically, which is better? Revenge of the Sith or Rise of Skywalker.
I speak about topics such as; my favorite comedy film, where I like to sit in the theater, my favorite hobbies and how I like my eggs. I also talk about wether or not I think the new Fantastic Beasts movie can be any good. Finally, I address a question I've seen come up a few times now. Is Marvel cinema? Whatever that means...

I mean, every piece of entertainment is some form of art
Agreed.
Yup, and there are still good and bad piece of art.
Thanks for answering my question Adam!, great video as always 👍
Revenge of the Sith is my favorite Star Wars film. 🤷♂️
I finally joined your patreon dude! Can’t wait to see what’s on it. Keep the videos going I love them 👌
Legend!
Adam you should 100% watch the 80s Supergirl movie. Its simultaneously “so bad its good” like Catwoman and surprisingly well made. The great cast makes it worth your time. They elevate a weird script into 80s cinema gold. Trust me man, fun for the whole family.
Came here to say the same thing, the cast are excellent, Faye Dunaway and Peter O'Toole ham up their villainous characters like there's no tomorrow, Supergirl is played really sweetly and the sfx hold up surprisingly well (tho' it has been a long time and I was probably more forgiving back then), but practical effects age far better than CGI. Seriously, worth a watch!
Love your videos man you always make me laugh
That new comedy movie "Fauci", is pretty good. It's one of the best comedies I've seen in years
A fun thing to do if you are not happy with your own LEGO designs, is to get into modding. Build a set that you have instructions for but with your own color scheme, theme... Batman's Millennium Falcon? Harry Potter's Hulk Buster? Everything is possible...
10:59 Damn, that's mad impressive!
Great q&a man
If a movie movies audiences, it’s considered cinema, it doesn’t need to be HIGH ART or something like that, it just needs to be movingly emotional to be memorable and interesting
So yes Marvel IS cinema, yet DCEU fans would want their movies praised to no end, so Marvel deserves that praise too (not that it doesn’t on it’s own but people can be two faced about this stuff and it’s annoying)
Thanks for answering my question!
I would pick Revenge of the Sith for sure. But it might be because it was the first Star Wars movie I saw in theatres. Loved it then and love it now. Rise of Skywalker is just a disaster because of Last Jedi ruining the characters and it just seeming so totally predictable. Nothing from it comes close to the Order 66 scene, with John Williams’ amazing score, one of the all time best Star Wars moments.

Hahaha. Sorry dude. No disrespect to. your personal palate!
I usually sit 4th row from the front. There's usually less people therefore less distractions and bigger screen is a better enveloping experience.
They are cinematic epics.
I was born in 1982, I remember watching terminator 1 and alien and aliens at home with my family. My parents also took us to see t2 and alien 3. I remember all of us leaving alien 3 so disappointed. Even as a kid I knew it sucked. T2 on the other hand is an all timer imo
15:17 Marvel movies are like rollercoasters or theme park rides for the most part. Sure, they can be fun and entertaining at the moment, but with few exceptions, I have never thought about a Marvel movie I've seen two days later or two weeks, two months, or two years later. They're very shallow and surface entertainment. There is little to no depth in terms of thought-provoking themes. They can be fun as hell though and are worth seeing on a big screen for the full cinematic experience, but far too many of those films these days are interchangeable or forgettable once one has left the theatre.
As I always say, the best movies ever made are the ones you think about several months later or many years, even decades later because the characters, stories, and themes or cinematography or soundtracks resonated with you.
It's interesting that people are isolating Marvel movies. Is the umpteenth live-action Disney remake "high art"? What about Jaws 3D? Or another Star Wars spinoff? I agree that there's a label delineation between most Marvel movies and a Scorsese / FFC / Spielberg et al flick. I just think that same label applies to most Disney films atm. Also, the second part of Scorsese's thesis, that the MCU was "killing" cinema... How does he know? Where are the stats to back that up? Maybe the MCU encouraged people to be more avid filmgoers.
Sad being the only fb fan here and somewhat optimistic for the 3rd film :/
Here's an interesting thing. While I loved the Harry Potter books, I thought the first 2 were pretty damn awful . So, maybe there is hope for Fantastic Beasts? However, the third Harry Potter film was directed by Cuaron, so there is that...
Man, I know I've probably seen Terminator first, but I always say RoboCop. We're around the same age. I always remember ED-209 blazing that guy and Murphy getting his limbs blown off. I also, remember when the bad guy was, standing over Lewis, undoing his pants, I knew something wasn't right. Possibly could have been my first memory of sexual assault in a movie, even though it didn't happen. Then later RoboCop asks the woman if she was raped. Talk about a movie that was dark and comedic at times. Rode the line perfectly, in my opinion.
I personally think yes but id understand why alot of people don't
Alright Adam, I hate making new accounts, but I finally made a Patreon. $1/month is all I can give at the moment. This is literally the only "Subscription" I have, I don't pay for Netflix, Spotify, Disney, or any of that junk, so I hope you know how special you are!
Thanks Aaron! Really means a lot. I'll keep the content coming. I just saw that Chris Pratt is voicing Garfield... so, new video coming soon.
When you will make comedy list plz do not forget to watch first "The big Lebowski" to me it's awesome
It's a great film!
If you want some help with music I would love to help!
I have a question; How tall are you?
Around 6'3"
@@AdamDoesMovies You're pretty tall, did you ever play basketball or something? 😂
Best comedy for me is Monty python and the Holy Grail, I recommend watching it if you didn’t ?
What's the weirdest arthouse movie you've seen?
Dark Fate is just an abysmal reskin of T2, though
That's basically every modern movie now. Just a re-skin. Jurassic World, Force Awakens, Halloween, Scream (I assume). I have pretty much given up on these franchise movies doing anything remotely different/interesting. I watch lesser known properties for that.
yes movies are and theyre shown in cinemas
The MCU IS CINEMA
We didn’t have this debate with Happy Madison, Saltzer & Friedberg, Asylum and the Emoji Movie.
Why are we still here?
You should hit up an acting class, you have the charisma to do great things. I mean, of course that is if you want to.
I think what Martin Scorsese meant by MCU is that they're just movies to enjoy not Oscar bait well made films. But one Marvel movie that should be considered cinema is Logan (2017). That film is art! Not my number 1 favorite Marvel movie but it is the best made Marvel movie.
Well it's not technically marvel, it's fox
Infinity war is literally pure art it was the best film of 2018
The pic on your thumb nail is a hot toys captain America toy...
I know
Nirvana and Metallica... can't listen to them anymore. Used to be my fav bands but too much radio play... i miss liking their songs lol
Adam warlock .
This video was art #CancelAdam
There’s your like
@@AdamDoesMovies thanks boo #CANCELADAM
Screw sushi.
Dumb and dumber is an all time great
The Dark Knight was undoubtedly Cinema.
I don’t blame David Yates for the fantastic beasts films being not so fantastic. It’s mainly JK rowling’s dull, convoluted writing that dragged these films down
Yes - in the same way that McDonald's is still technically "food"
Marvel movies cinema? No. Denis Villeneuve films cinema? Hell yes.
Yes they are cinema, but that doesnt mean anything really, The room is cinema, any movie is cinema. The actual question should be are these movies good? Does a movie with a generic plot, with dialogue filled with bad referential jokes for children, with no actual meaning or any focus at all on writing other than excuses for the same predictable half an hour battle with the villain of the week, is a movie like that any good? There are not even consequences in these movies, since they are all safe movies, they just keep getting back to the status quo as if nothing happened time and time again, Thanos killed half of the universe and what happened? Puff they are all back by the next movie. These movies are shlock, products to sell toys and merchandise and nothing else really, there is nothing wrong with liking trash tho, just dont deny its trash. "Fun" trash, but trash.
If people are emotionally moved by this “trash” as you call it, then it’s clearly more than your comprehension, it doesn’t matter if it’s product on surface level, what’s below the surface is what people enjoy and it’s not all action, there are real flaws and arcs the characters go through and it’s earned
So to call it trash is subjective to someone like you, doesn’t make it so
Nope. Cinema is art, and art is the vision of an artist (director or screenwriter) Marvel movies are made by a bunch of producers who know what audiences like. They are not cinema (art) those movie are just products.
Most,if not all Pixar movies are made by a committee, do they count as art for you?
@@yufanliu4951 Nope, still products. But they are amazing products. Soul was great.
So your not seeing a WOKE movement in movies now?
No, no it isn't.
They are definitely fun, and great entertainment, but they don't possess the structure and elements that make it 'Cinema'
Doesn't mean that they are bad, they just don't fall into the cinema category.
Pretty sure it fits definitions 1a and 2a from Merriam-Webster:
1a: MOTION PICTURE - usually used attributively
b: a motion-picture theater
2a: MOVIES especially : the film industry
b: the art or technique of making motion pictures
Literally captain Americas arc is pure art
Marvel movies are product. Nothing more. Exception being infinity wars. Just like the people who cook at burger King are not chefs
Not classic cinema, just new age theme park cinema
Marvel blows
