Hey Gundam, I'm a garbage truck driver. I listen to TH-cam in my earpiece at work. Sometimes I sit pulled over searching and searching for something to listen to. But when your video comes up on my feed, I can confidently click, put my phone away and get back to work. Just wanted to let you know.
and homies say I dont know the working class, fuckers; we ARE the working class. These homies are so spoiled and ruined the value of labor with their BS. fr man. like.. homie... taxes shouldn't even be a thing for stuff like your doing or for construction or manufacturing. It's these spoiled city folks that ruined the value of the dollar that makes our work worth PENNIES when it's US that runs society. It's fucking INSANE to me, like I'm convinced this crap is being influenced on purpose. I know I was stupid as a kid as well but im 31 now and well... What a lie we were fed.
I do the same thing as well Edit: when I said I do the same thing, I didn't mean I'm a garbage truck driver, I meant I listen to itsagundam while I work 🤣🤣🤣🤣 but, yeah thank you, you awesome garbage truck drivers. Keep it up 👍
There's damn near 100 years worth of just film history to go through. As a Romanian troll once said, "I can stay disinterested longer then they can stay solvent."
In theory, yes, it can work. If enough people become disinterested for long enough, if they also have children and raise them to despise the modern world's bad quality culture, and enough people across multiple generations check out of the mass-produced corpo-crap, then they will suffer greatly. Add in independent creators to the mix, and alternate / parallel distribution / publishing / payment processing platforms, and they are finished. But we must willing to maintain the boycott in the very long term and prepare all of the necessary skills, talent and infrastructure needed to create viable, better alternatives to them, and even to replace them.
Let’s just hope the strike last until 2024. No one noticed we didn’t have late night shows in forever, let’s let keep the energy going. We dodged a Barbie SNL sketch.
Gotta remember folks: *Hollyweird did it to themselves. One sided political and social messages mattered more than just making content the fans wanted. They won’t learn until it’s all gone and even then I wouldn’t be surprised if they still didn’t learn.*
Ten years ago, Rachel Zegler would've been cast as the butt ugly girl in movies. Even compared to real life everyday people, she's a 5 at best. Hell, I've dated better looking women than her! As far as "moral beauty" goes, she's lacking that too as she's a woke Hollywood elitist; that's as morally ugly as you can get!
@@carpelunam It's awful. You see, again and again, these pretty girls used as the face and body models for these absolute gremlins of characters. It's been that way since at least _Mass Effect Androgyny_ ...sorry! _Andromeda_ .
@@harbl99 I made the unfortunate decision to spend my Game Stop points on Jedi: Survivor, and if you pay attention to the femaIe NPC’s, you’ll notice that they have fIat chests, and zero curves. They essentially look like guys with long hair wearing overalls.
Every time you hear "she's not going to be saved by the prince" you can almost predict the script. Honestly it's kinda funny how they think they're doing anything new.
star wars did it better with princess leia actually being a good character that didn't take shit but also wasn't an complete intolerable asshole, and actually made her own way instead of being saved and then acting like the man was at fault for not letting her save herself leia was tortured by vader himself without any space powers to defend her, and didn't so much as crack. her fucking will was commendable. compare that to rey who somehow got the magic powers spontaneously and didn't have much of any plot development as a character
A girl at Subway recently made my sandwich with care. That's so rare that I thanked her a bunch of times and told her how great she is. Truly the unsung heroes of the world.
Did they miss the part in the original movie when Snow White was a girl boss? She berated the dwarves for their uncleanliness and made them get organized. Then they respected her and worked hard for her. It's a perfect story for both men and women.
She was the quintessential mother figure to them, a domestic mastermind which made their untidy little cottage into a proper home. First time I was that movie, I was impressed by her character. It was a genuinely solid movie. The modern "reimagining" can be nothing other than utter troll-crap.
@@mirceazaharia2094 Truth. She put 7 men in check. Sadly she fell for the apple. Those 7 men worked to help her and then a prince came along and saved her because of the 7 dwarves. Snow White was a boss! Today...she doesn't need a man.
I think the AI writing problem has been going on longer than we realize. Between that and the talentless writers pool, at this point it’s like continuing to mine for gold long after the vein has been depleted.
The guy who whinned about getting "low" residuals is insufferable. He's complaining about still getting paid for a job he has already done, *years* ago! Lol
That's 2 tanks of free gas, for me. Boohoo... "What a world!They're still paying me for pretending for a day of pretending 10 years ago... AND THEY FED ME TOO!! 😭"
I'd like to know why the men who built the budling, built the street, put in the electrical and plumbing, etc. Why they don't get residuals for life every time these Hollywood people work in or use it??
I stepped away from movies, comics and video games years ago. I found different hobbies, but it's so entertaining seeing the reason why I left come burning down
Snow White and the 7 Dwarves of 1937 changed cinema forever and it is part of the first class of the National Film Registry in 1989 alongside with films such as Casablanca, Citizen Kane, Gone with the Wind, Star Wars, The Maltese Falcon, Singin' in the Rain, The Wizard of Oz, Dr Strangelove, The General, On the Waterfront and 14 other films that set the bar on what cinema should be and since then no film has come even close to the greatness of the class of 1989(the gold standard). The 1937 one will forever be the 2023's superior in all respects and the 1937 one will be remembered as a timeless classic(getting close to 90 years now) while the 2023 one will be forgotten.
I am, by any stretch of the definition, a sub-par writer. I haven't put any of my little pet projects out on the net since I was writing fan fictions in my teenage years, and I think I still need some improvement before I ever decide whether or not to change that. That said, I am confident that I could go to Disney, work on whatever budget these writers are complaining over, and write something twice as good.
Damn right you will, as long as you are committed to your craft, to improving it, to doing your utmost, to respecting your craft, your audience, and do not shove your convictions down other people's throats. I don't think I do very well when it comes to that last part, personally, but, hey, live and learn! 😅
As someone who is terrible at creating original work of any kind and instead works off of reference, I could do better than the "professional" writers.
I have no idea who you are, yet I am 100% certain you would be a better writer than them. The fact that you're watching this video shows you can see there's a problem.
I can relate to this. As a teen, I was ridiculously overconfident about my writing. Now as a twenty-something, I angst over every word and am afraid to let anyone else read it. But I KNOW I could write better content than anyone at Disney or most of these other studios. And I wouldn't be picky about how much they paid me.
"We changed 'Who is the fairest of them all' to mean who is the most just." That is actually an even worse change than it sounds. Cause that implies that the queen (you know, the VILLAIN of the story) was actually a really good person and leader until Snow White turned out to be an even better one than her. In the original, the queen was vain, prideful and only cared about her looks rather than being a good person.
It's also ironic of Hollywood trying to teach people about justice and ethics, considering 95% of them have Epstein'ed more times than we'll ever know. There's literally probably nowhere on Earth more sinful than Hollywood, as at least sex traffickers in third world countries do it for income and survival.
I mean, we all know that a woman cannot be envious or mean, right? The queen must have surely have been victim of some bad evil white straight man, otherwise it woulnd't be modern Hollywood.
Lately I've been feeling real sorry for you Gundam and all the media lovers out there who are watching a medium collapse right infront of them. I wish this corporate takeover of music, movie, TV, and gaming hadn't been so solidified before people at large had noticed the drop in quality material. Maybe the tide will turn, but all we can do a laugh and point it out until things improve. Thanks for all you do, Gundam.
The only way the tide can ever turn is if the little guys, the indie creators, can outcompete them in terms of quality, if enough of them don't sell out and if enough people stop buying the corporate crap and focus instead on supporting quality over quantity and "popularity". That's the only way.
Everyone should consider writing their own comic, tv show, movie, whatever. Even if it doesn’t go beyond the pages written just do it so you can engage with the creative process
Hollywood is finding out fast that we don’t need them anymore. With new creators and smaller studios starting up, one hundred plus years of entertainment (movies, tv shows, video games, music and books) to keep us entertained, I think we’ll be fine.
I refuse to accept that we live in a timeline where the MCU continued after Endgame. Everything else afterwards is part of what I call the FUMU (F^^^ You Marvel Universe).
Marvel is basically beating a dead horse when they're making new content that's trying to tie into the infinity saga when it's SO MUCH EASIER TO MOVE ON and create something new. Like go ahead shang-chi, the marvels, she-hulk etc, but please don't attempt to cash into the infinity saga when that ship already sailed. Create a new saga instead
Gundam nails it. The guy/gal/whatever that fries my fries is INFINITELY more useful to all of us than a Hollywood writer/actor. This person provides us with something we may not need, nor may it be good for us, but damnit at least we enjoy it!
6:40 exactly. Writers WANT to make their own shit, they WANT to make original stories, but the producers dont want the hassle of marketing to a new audience when they can just let nostalgia do all the work
Part of the problem is that the workers are being overworked because the studios want to keep pushing out 100 new shows at once. The anime industry is suffering from a similar problem at the moment.
I'll always find it funny and ironic how Peter Dinklage virtue signaled to act like dwarves are "used" for entertainment in media, referring to new Snow White not having actual short dwarves, which in actuality only took 6-7 other dwarves out of the acting business and Peter himself got the role in GoT for being a dwarf, it also made him THE dwarf in hollywood with a woke reason as to why no more should be hired. Also, "skin as white as snow" is LITERALLY the reason for her name, if she isn't pale white, it doesnt work. They rewrote the story so much, just call it Princess Woke and make it a different thing.
this whole things shows why too much progression in a society can be bad. its one thing to re look at old norms at what is allowed to see what can be more fair. its another thing to want to destroy any old culture and tradition because it doesn't exactly fit in with a narritive you are trying to create about history I want to be a more open minded person but everything about the modern left has honestly pushed me to be more right and strict then i like. i hate it but i would rather be more strict and organized, than whatever the fuck is going on with the far left right now.
Peter Dinklage is the ‘Tonya Harding’ to the future opportunities of Little People of America. He’s just knee-capping future ‘competition’ for acting roles he wants, guaranteeing himself work, and denying these chances from others.
Rachel Zegler has been in two movies and they both tanked. I would definitely not be this smug if I belonged in one of the few movies made by the most iconic director and a billion dollar franchise that lost this much money and that’s all I had to show for my career.
Secret invasion should have been the main plot for the entire new phase or at the very least of 2/3 connected films The comic version was massive with every single superhero book being “hijacked” by the secret invasion storyline (and you saw that even on the covers with the secret invasion tag)with miriads of subplots and points of view, and a main storyline dedicated comic that analyzed the main story in direct way. It was like I’m cinematic infinity war Every hero had his film/comics where there were bits and subplots that converged on the main showdown called infinity war/ secret invasion Done like that with new movie where slowly we saw infiltrators and beloved heros revalead to be captured and impersonated by skrull agents With this overarching sensation of uncertainty and hidden meaning behind every hero/villain moves Paranoia and distrust Infiltrators reveal with hidden hints sprinkled over several movies But no Let condense one of the main marvel saga and transform it a a tv series What a turd
It could have been genuinely good, a flagship event to have a strong launch for phase four. But you forget, this is the M-She-U. Genuine competence is a male trait, it's automatically toxic and YASSS KWEEN SLAYYY femunist girl bosses of color and gender automatically win as they are stunning and brave, and anything you say to the contrary is punishable by being hashtag cancelled. Also, it wasn't made for you, but (initiate Greta voice) HoW DaRe YoU (disengage Greta voice) not see and support this movie, you (presumably) cis het huwhite male patriarchal pig. Bigot spigot. Or so the general thought-pattern goes in the Hollyweird Hivemind. And on and on it goes, until destruction. By their own hand or that of the people, who have finally had enough.
But wasnt that one of the main criticisms? That to understand one movie, you had to watch like 5 others? 3 of them you may not have an interest in seeing? Scaling down was one of the rare things they did right.
@@Hillthugsta not really Aside from the main team up movies most marvel film pre infinity war were perfectly able to be consumed as stand alone They had their distinctive plots and where focused on their hero(easier when you have can present an hero origin story for the first time but not impossibile, they did 3 to su stark movies that had nothing to do with thanos or the infinity stones) They only had little cameos or subplots related to the main common infinity war plot line Usually in the post end credit Secret invasion should have been something like that Not 20 film with the skrulls as protagonist But with the skrull lurking in the background of the post credit or with subtle innuendos or hidden double meanings and double agents
Wrong. They keep striking and expect to get paid more for ruining franchises that the AI bots they worked on can do better than them. Without the potential lawsuits.
bro when you showed all those (now old) comics from when I was in love with comics (not as an avid collector, but a casual appreciator) my heart just sank and i paused the video to make this comment. No stone has been left unturned when it comes to Disney dismantling the things I loved. The last good comics I saw come out of the industry were in 2012, maybe 2013. I was 20 in 2013. I'm now 30 and like millions of people have just completely given up on modern entertainment. Now I am attempting to make my own comic. God bless.
There are third party sites out there that have lots of good comics, new and old alike. That's our last bastion. Like readcomiconline. My personal favorite. ElseWorlds Batman, Aether & Empire, Watchmen, Immortal Hulk, Uber, DIE, various Conan the Barbarian titles, .303, Punisher MAX, these are just a few of the things that they have. They even have Action Comics, starting with the June 1938 issue. Highly recommended.
DC put out a lot of good stuff during their _Rebirth_ initiative. They ditched the New 52 and focused on telling good stories with their legacy characters using proven writers. Naturally, despite being so successful a few years later DC decided to do _Infinite Frontier_ which introduced a bunch of new "diverse" characters and brought in new writers, almost all of whom suck. It's to the point now where I don't even bother with comics written by women because they're never going to be any good.
AMEN BROTHER, AMEN! i wonder what the next 10 years will bring us, but looking at your content always make me hope, that at least you will bring some fire every now and then to brighten the day. may your struggle be less and your time on yt more comfy for however long you are willing to do this.
I’ve been mostly ignoring the Snow White stuff since honestly I couldn’t care less, but hearing them describe it just makes me more confused, cause it sounds like they’re changing the story completely, so why not just take that plot and make an original movie? Snow White is learning to be a leader? She was a random girl she didn’t want to be the queen! And she did all those chores literally as a form of rent since she just wanted somewhere to sleep at night!
Its the only story Disney tell now - a woman has to learn she's already amazing and just accept being better than everyone else. Also og Snow White wasn't just a random girl, she was the Princess of the kingdom, the evil queen was her stepmom.
From what I am told by people who work in the business. Companies now are Scared to DEATH of new ideas, because it's a "Risk" but something with a built in audience they think will draw people in. EVEN if it's altered to the point of being unrecognizable It makes no sense.
@@ItsAGundam It’s definitely a weird oxymoron, they’re terrified of risks yet take the risk of changing the original product expecting success, which funnily enough is a bigger risk then just making something up and putting it on screen
Communism can only take hold on a country once theyve completely destroyed all of the host countrys actual culture and it gets replaced with bastardized commie garbage
Hey Mr. Gundam. A friend of mine and I started watching the OG Mobile Suit Gundam recently and we are still in awe at how good it is. You were the person who basically gave my first introduction to Gundam, I had heard of it before but it was your references to it and secondary channel that really got me to look into more. So thank you, I'm really excited to get more into as I continue watching it. (Also, it is leagues better than anything Hollywood has put out in the last 20 years!)
Indeed. Yes, the dialog still has that 70-80s era of stiffness, but that’s basically true of anything from that era (seriously, watch an old TV show and compare). The story, action, and style are still great though. It’s downright shocking how good the machines look. And they actually made an anti-war show (and _Gundam_ is an anti-war piece, made by people for whom the atomic bombings were almost as recent as 9/11 is for us today) that doesn’t insult the audience.
I saw a commercial for "Secret Invasion" before and for a second, just a second... I got excited and thought about what it could be and wanted to see it. Then, I remembered Disney. And never turned on an episode.
Yeah, I fell for it and watched the first episode and then proceeded to beat the crap out of myself for being so stupid. Luckily I watch it on a site I don't pay for. So they still didn't get my money!
No worries man. You and nearly everyone else didn't even know it was a thing till we heard "journalists" whining about us not watching it. Talk about funny, ha!
You're not missing anything. I saw it, it's terrible. There's no intrigue, no suspense, just lazy acting and terrible writing. And the finale is a crapfest of terrible CGI boss fight.
After returning to Anime after several years I have to agree with Gundam. Even the most basic run of the mill animes have some entertainment value and basic level of coherence that a lot of Hollywood productions seem to have lost.
@@zid9611 while I don't consider most Animes really that good. The average seem to be of higher quality. Like comparing the average Isekai with the average Hollywood re-imagining. At least the Anime will have some basic consistency, world building and be entertaining. While the Hollywood's ones in my view get extremely bloated and boring in their storytelling.
Korean cinema made me realize how shitty Hollywood blockbusters have become. One of the things I’ve noticed in Korean films is they put a lot of effort into making you actually care for the characters unlike a lot of US cinema these days.
@@geist41334 A yes the Isekai curse, sadly, yes there is a over saturation of fantasy Animes. But there are still are some scifi ones that are made even if they are very few in comparison.
There have been instances of people confirming just that. I can't remember her name but some writer at Marvel actually said she wanted to ruin everything Stan Lee did. I couldn't understand why she would want to work there if her desire was to destroy but you're right, it's because people who picked on them liked this stuff so it's their mission to destroy it.
The Superman cartoon is actually really popping off mate. The ratings are pretty high and the online activity on it has been trending since release. Everyone seems to love Tomboy Lois Lane.
if that's your standard for a good superhero cartoon, you have rather low standard. you're making it the same quality with batman the animated series and superman animated series. news flash, lois has ALWAYS been a tomboy. that's not new.
By the way, if you already mentioned Jujutsu Kaisen, we almost didn't even get that series because the creator did a proof of concept pilot manga and wanted instead to do a manga about idols (yes, really) before his editor told him that the idea in that one pilot manga had a lot of potential. Funny how Japan can accidentally dish out pieces of media that just curb stomp the preachy western media of our hash tag current year.
@@AndrewManook I dunno, man. It's pretty damn good, gets close enough to Yu Yu Hakusho (the very best shonen fighting anime IMO) that I love it. It's somewhat of a contender even when compared to giants like Demon Slayer and My Hero Academia. Demon Slayer is excellent and MHA is good (if somewhat overrated), so it holds up well in my eyes even when compared to very popular series.
@@AndrewManook if JJK isn't even the standard, what does that say about the anime shows that are even better than it? that's why a lot of people rather watch anime than woke Western slop
I still find it ridiculous people praised celebrities so much. Glad things are slowly changing especially with the new generations. They dont give a damn about actors
I have a friend who's a one-and-done actor here in the UK. He's been on like one episode of every damn thing. Burglar #3, paramedic, taxi driver, stuff like that. Almost never gets a named part, but always gets a couple of lines. He's got about 90 IMDB credits, and he gets tiny cheques from most of them on the regular. He says it's better to do tons of tiny gigs that pay poorly but will send you a royalty/residual cheque a few times a year, than anything else, unless you are top tier talent.
I guess you call a talent agency and look for production companies that are holding auditions for specific parts. You will be passed on a lot, but they might call for background characters, usually because they saw something in your physical appearance that jives with their vision.
Amazing video as always Gundam. Always look forward to your new ones and what topic your gonna hit on. Hell i have even started doing gunpla models and learning airbrushing. No lie you were right asf when you said it helps relax you and just get lost. I have always had ADHD and the so many details of doing it lets my brain focus on one thing and slow down some. Keep up the amazing work and do you have any recomendations on a good compressor or tank setup for airbrushing?
See, I want an adaptation of Snow White that sticks closer to the Brothers Grimm's version of the tale: at the end of the fairy tale, the queen goes to Snow White's wedding and they force her to dance with the wedding guests while wearing a pair of hot iron shoes until she falls down dead.
It's cool that snow white is so clueless about women having power that she can sit next to the lady playing the queen in the movie and just let words fall out of her mouthhole.
I work in the film and TV industry and I’ve been out of work the entire year so far. While being unemployed and no money coming in majorly sucks, I hope this strike is a wake up call for the studios and hopefully an opportunity for some kind of reform or rethink of how these productions are produced. Because for a while now profit seems to be the only real priority, at the expense of quality and the craft. Way too many productions are poorly written, beloved classic franchises hijacked for ideological propaganda purposes, numerous poorly created nonsensical prequels or sequels, the fixation on the ever stagnating superhero genre. The entire Film and TV entertainment industry is an utter train wreck and has been this way for quite some time …… I can only hope that progress in these negotiations are made soon, and a reasonable deal is reached. Additionally I hope the studios have both the introspection and self awareness to acknowledge how much damage they’ve done to their own reputation, the entire industry and all the creative artists who work within it, and recognise that drastic changes in its culture are urgently needed. We need to fall in love with filmmaking, and storytelling again. There needs to be less greed and joyless preachy ideological indoctrination. Because right now many of us are “not entertained”. And that is what this industry is fundamentally for …..
I worked retail when I was in my 20s. I can't imagine being upset if I got a check in the mail for $0.02 today because that Slurpee machine I used to clean still serves customers. Imagine being upset that you still get paid for a days work you did 10+ years ago because its "not enough".
The thing everyone is missing is that the reason Emilia Clark was made so strong is to replace captain marvel as the leader of the female avengers. The hatred for brie larson was so strong it must of spooked disney.
The reason shows like Velma and Superman already have a confirmed seconds season is because its cheaper to buy multiple seasons for shows at once. It has something to do with the animation studio and reusing assets and whatnot
My Adventures with Superman is actually pretty good, so I'm fine with that. Sure, it's no Superman the animated series, but kids will love it, and we know adults love it too. My only complaint is that they're airing it on Adult Swim and not the Cartoon Network hours. (Though, looking at how they treated Steven Universe and Adventure Time, I guess it's better this way.)
To be fair unlike Velma My Adventure with Superman is actually charming and you can tell there's at least one writer that care about it. Velma everyone must've been smoking crack or something IDK Also everyone seems to genuinely enjoy the show. It's cute in my opinion
@@darkmetal2412the show itself is pretty mid and the writing is too childish for my taste. I genuinely don't get the praise of "not edgy superman" for once when Clark is usually normal outside of DCU liveaction movies plus I can't get over Lois, Livewire or Deathstroke's designs. Jimmy is exactly what I expected they'd do to him since modern shows despise redheads now a days, the weirdest thing is why pick Slade of all the people to be an antagonist to Superman? Like Slade isn't even in the same league in terms of power, majority of Clark's villains are superpowered or aliens (with the exception of Lex) for a reason. Slade is an assassin that thrives in the crime underworld of DC, that's why he works so well against Batman. Clark has a whole rogues gallery of more dangerous villains. And Clark trying to "discover" himself makes no sense since he spent years of his life training beforehand otherwise he'd never be able to live a normal life or in a highly populated area like Metropolis. The show is really predictable and kinda boring for me, if I wanted to watch pseudo anime then I'd rather just go watch actual anime with a better story.
Since I liked the show years ago, I was curious about the guy who shows the check from Bones, and decided to dig a little. His name is Page Kennedy and was small character in ONE episode in 2010 ("The Bones on the Blue Line") who's only part was to be interrogated for a cumple of minutes. So, twenty-three years later, he's still getting money for a glorified cameo. And he complains!
What pisses me off about the snow white actress is, if Disney had said "we are doing a live action 1:1 shot for shot remake of the cartoon, here is the script- start memorizing" she would have shut up, grabbed the check, and learned to sing "some day my prince will come." And just smiled and waved and talked about how faithful to the source material the new movie was during the press tours. She is spouting all this SJW "modern audiences" crap because that's what Disney wants her to say, so the film will and should fail. I've been saying it since I was a kid, "Disney sucks, death to the house of mouse."
I mean what would be the point if it was 1:1 remake? I mean in theater things change all the time from one show to the next. It makes sense to me to complain about books not being faithful since you want to visually see the story happen instead of just reading. It will be less good most probably, but it's less creatively bankrupt.
@swampdonkey1567 No, it’s still creatively bankrupt. I’ve watched “feminist” and “modern” Snow White before, hundreds of times. Yet Disney somehow manages to choose the most bland and vapid retelling everytime. The only live action version of their movies that was the correct amount of different was The Jungle Book except for the “Wanna be like you” number which was awful. But I digress. Different is only good if it’s coherent and interesting. If it deviates thoughtlessly just for the sake of deviation then it’s a valid mess.
I wasn't aware that wanting a show to honour its source of inspiration and not try to force THE MESSAGE down my throat is "having too many expectations". I guess even expecting mediocrity is too much.
From time to time I rewatch the Lord of the Rings Making Of to remember how invested these people were to make these movies become a reality and how much passionate people can achieve if they really want.
Oh yeah! That was when movies and the industry was doing good. Same with gaming. Back when things were more passion filled. But now? It’s all been drained out of everyone, both industries and audiences from never ending shit and bad things happening.
I remember those. My brother got the Extended Edition DVDs of the LOTR movies and I watch all of the hours of bonus material and commentary tracks. Yes, I did have more free time back then, but it was also more interesting to watch these behind the scenes features than the actual movies of today.
@@shcdemolisher Honestly current AAA industry is a pathetic joke. Remember when Arkane used to make games like Dishonored? Or Treyarch with Black Ops 1 & 2? Or even the previous Halo games? Blizzard was the dream destination to work at too. The original studios have all been replaced, similar to the phrase of the "Theseus ship", just being a mockup of what once was great. Only thing that's left is executives who want to milk whales with microtransactions to the brim. This is why I support indies like a madman.
Seeing the actress for snow white dismissing the original like that boggles my mind, how is she trying to launch her career of something while shitting on it at the same time?
As a computer programmer, the concept of residuals/royalties just sounds out of this world. Imagine if I was entitled to keep getting paid by my past employers every time they run a program i worked on no matter how long ago it was. How could you possibly go on strike over not getting enough bonus money for work you did years and years ago and were also paid for at the time you did it?
Man, I haven’t read Secret Invasion in a few years but the dialogue between Osborne and Captain Marvel lives in my head. Marvel was there to kill Osborne and he just destroyed him with words. He asked him something like you really thought you were Captain Marvel didn’t you? A warrior, a protector a man of honor? That question wrecked him. I think he flew away crying. If the TV show at least attempted something on that level even if it didn’t land. I could respect they tried do to something.
So let me get this straight, every actor no MATTER how small the role is or how long AGO that was gets a payment every month for life because they shot a few scenes in a tv drama. That's...........insane. What incentive do they have to work when they are paid forever.
Residuals aren't that much, especially if you live in a city that's expensive as hell. Some actors actually love their craft and want to keep working and improving. And, of course, the prestige of being well known and eventually getting that Oscar gold - you know, the ultimate ego status symbol.
Ego. Most actors already live weathy; but not having constant attention is what keeps them alive. Remember 2020 and Gal Gadot singing "Imagine?" They could literally do nothing and it'd be better than what they usually end up doing.
@sigurther8476 It's still free money for doing next to nothing, though. I read somewhere that like 90-95% of actors can never quit their day jobs. Only like 5-10% are regularly employed. Same for writers, too. They live several months off of one check for one gig, trying to find another gig to survive another few months. So even among the entertainment industry itself, the level of ego and narcissism from the top 5% is insane, cause the overwhelming majority of actors and writers don't "make it" in the industry.
I like My Adventures with Superman for what it is. Nothing mind-blowing or anything, just fun. Maybe it’s fatigue from the critical, Velma-esque conceptual trends of the past few years but a generally enjoyable and good-natured superhero show feels like improvement.
Honestly, Gundam's criticisms felt pretty surface level. Also the reason why My Adventures with Superman feels like it's for a younger audience is because it was made for one. It was originally meant to air on Cartoon Network, only for Warner Bros to movie it to Adult Swim instead, which surprisingly worked out really well.
how the standards has fallen. by comparing to the batman animated series, x-men, spiderman, SUPERMAN, justice league, and justice league unlimited. it has fallen indeed. tsk, tsk, tsk.
I think it's mostly because the ones working on the show also worked on the Netflix She-Ra cartoon and many people were burned and don't want to give this a chance.
I'd blame streaming services trying to push something out fast is probably a factor everyone should be looking at. Like companies are putting quantity over quantity, so you get a some undercooked/ half baked stories that don't really work, or diamonds in the rough that just get canceled because they never bothered promoting it. (Case in point Velma and Fired on Mars, where one show was heavily promoted and everyone hated it, and the other has garnered a cult following, but I know none of you guys heard of it until now.)
@@cheeseburgersuperior1874 I mean, not every DC show can be on the same level as the DCAU. Granted, shows could get a lot edgier back then than they do now, like Static Shock having a school shooting episode or Captain Planet having an anti-drug episode where someone ODs (yeah. Captain Planet got dark sometimes) I'd probably put My Adventures with Superman on a similar scale to Green Lantern or Batman the Brave and The Bold; though it's a bit early to properly rank it.
8:55 Warner probably didn't approve 2 seasons of velma right off the bat, they rarely do that -and when they do and the show underperforms they cancel the second season, just like any network/producer. The thing is with all the "hate watching" weak minded individuals did, Warner actually made a shit ton of money for hbo, a lot of people came back to pay subscriptions just to "hate watch velma", because piracy is apparently a sin worse than any other
All I have to say, is that ever since Blackrock got involved to basically use trillions of dollars to push dumb things because of what the CEO of it wants, all these companies feel free to go single digit IQ endlessly damn what the fanbases care because they're now basically covered for life and don't have to worry about ever being affected by imploding movie/series sales anymore even if what they make like Indy 5 is a giant tire fire.
And yet Marvel is failing before our eyes, Disney has almost everything it has outside of the theme parks up for sale and WB...the less said about their financial state the better. Blackrock and every other ESG company that supports this nonsense do not have limitless capital. They do, however, have boards of directors that will be asking why their quarterly earnings are in the red. Keep supporting good projects and ignoring this woke garbage. The market will sort itself out.
Damn that ending. These videos make me feel bad for Gundam. On the plus side, watching these people losing money has been one of the few persistent joys this month, so I've got that going for me.
You would think at this point they'd learn "You just hate it because you hate *insert group here*" doesn't work. But no. That must be the reason right? Denial is an incredible drug.
Hollywood is finding out how irrelevant it is. And they deserve it-they’ve antagonized viewers and fans for so long that it was inevitable that we look elsewhere for entertainment.
The strike will be a way for studios and production companies to scrap projects that are struggling, too expensive to maintain, or doomed to failure, and then they can blame it on the strike. Same thing happened after the 2007 strike.
Since a lot of rich people are in Hollywood I guess it's no wonder many self-entitled people are there. This got me wondering which is better now. Hollywood or Bollywood?
I have a friend that works at the Chrysler factory but doesn't get a royalty check for every car he helped build when they're sold or for every mile the car drives. Weird.
I dont think its writers being forced to work on stuff they dont like. I think its people who's own personal morals and political views are so unpalatable that they have to hide it underneath something people genuinely loved to try and get people to eat it. Kinda like if someone snuck into a restaurant and put a turd in your BLT. Then when you yell about there being a turd in your sandwich. They come out and insult you for not wanting to eat their turd.
That new Superman show is so heavily vibing the way that accursed Californian Voltron show did. No soul, no quality, no morals, nothing of value. I truly hope that this trash does not drag out for as long.
Lol in the original film the Evil Queen, is the queen, she already has power. Are these people stupid? Snow White was going to inherit the kingdom even with her father having passed, but her step-mother was driven by envy to try kill her. She lost everything, but instead of becoming overcome by grief, she was grateful for the Hunstman's mercy, the kindness of the 7 Dwarves, and strives to make the best of her situation.
That Justified check was big because people were rewatching it to get ready for the new series that started 3 weeks ago. If I had Hulu I would have re watched Justified for the 7th time.

In the original German fairy tale, the evil stepmother uses the word "beautiful" when speaking to the magic mirror: "Spieglein, Spieglein an der Wand, wer ist die Schönste im ganzen Land?" It's fine to interpret things differently, but changing "most beautiful" to "most just" is absurd and silly.

There's damn near 100 years worth of just film history to go through. As a Romanian troll once said, "I can stay disinterested longer then they can stay solvent."
In theory, yes, it can work. If enough people become disinterested for long enough, if they also have children and raise them to despise the modern world's bad quality culture, and enough people across multiple generations check out of the mass-produced corpo-crap, then they will suffer greatly.
Add in independent creators to the mix, and alternate / parallel distribution / publishing / payment processing platforms, and they are finished.

I'm glad that I grew up as an Anime and Manga person more than anything related to Hollywood and the western entertainment in general.
Every time you hear "she's not going to be saved by the prince" you can almost predict the script. Honestly it's kinda funny how they think they're doing anything new.
What's the definition of Insanity? Repeating the same action expecting a different Result, and the result is always FAILURE.
Why should Snow White be a great leader? She could just be a shit leader. Good leaders are very few.
It’s idiocy that writes itself at this point
It's sad to say that final fantasy can write better female characters than Hollywood, but that ain't saying much
star wars did it better with princess leia actually being a good character that didn't take shit but also wasn't an complete intolerable asshole, and actually made her own way instead of being saved and then acting like the man was at fault for not letting her save herself
leia was tortured by vader himself without any space powers to defend her, and didn't so much as crack. her fucking will was commendable. compare that to rey who somehow got the magic powers spontaneously and didn't have much of any plot development as a character
The part where you said a kid flipping fries gives you more joy than these writers was probably the most relatable thing I’ve ever heard before
For real. The enjoyment of a well-prepared burger, fries, another side, and a soda is indeed tiers above watching some shows and movies.
Literally, nowadays with how expensive fast food is I see them flipping fries and I just kick my feet and squeal like a 5 year old girl
At least the kid flipping fries doesn't preach you with the "message", cause woke people are lazy bums that don't know what a day's work is.
A girl at Subway recently made my sandwich with care. That's so rare that I thanked her a bunch of times and told her how great she is. Truly the unsung heroes of the world.
yeah because that kid does deserve more job security then those hacks in Hollywood, f them let them find new jobs, rather have AI take their jobs away
Did they miss the part in the original movie when Snow White was a girl boss? She berated the dwarves for their uncleanliness and made them get organized. Then they respected her and worked hard for her. It's a perfect story for both men and women.
She was the quintessential mother figure to them, a domestic mastermind which made their untidy little cottage into a proper home. First time I was that movie, I was impressed by her character.
It was a genuinely solid movie.
The modern "reimagining" can be nothing other than utter troll-crap.
It seems most of the people who criticize old stories for having the wrong values don't know what they're talking about.

I think the AI writing problem has been going on longer than we realize. Between that and the talentless writers pool, at this point it’s like continuing to mine for gold long after the vein has been depleted.

Snow White and the 7 Dwarves of 1937 changed cinema forever and it is part of the first class of the National Film Registry in 1989 alongside with films such as Casablanca, Citizen Kane, Gone with the Wind, Star Wars, The Maltese Falcon, Singin' in the Rain, The Wizard of Oz, Dr Strangelove, The General, On the Waterfront and 14 other films that set the bar on what cinema should be and since then no film has come even close to the greatness of the class of 1989(the gold standard).
The 1937 one will forever be the 2023's superior in all respects and the 1937 one will be remembered as a timeless classic(getting close to 90 years now) while the 2023 one will be forgotten.
I am, by any stretch of the definition, a sub-par writer. I haven't put any of my little pet projects out on the net since I was writing fan fictions in my teenage years, and I think I still need some improvement before I ever decide whether or not to change that.
That said, I am confident that I could go to Disney, work on whatever budget these writers are complaining over, and write something twice as good.
Damn right you will, as long as you are committed to your craft, to improving it, to doing your utmost, to respecting your craft, your audience, and do not shove your convictions down other people's throats.
I don't think I do very well when it comes to that last part, personally, but, hey, live and learn! 😅
As someone who is terrible at creating original work of any kind and instead works off of reference, I could do better than the "professional" writers.
I have no idea who you are, yet I am 100% certain you would be a better writer than them. The fact that you're watching this video shows you can see there's a problem.
I can relate to this. As a teen, I was ridiculously overconfident about my writing. Now as a twenty-something, I angst over every word and am afraid to let anyone else read it. But I KNOW I could write better content than anyone at Disney or most of these other studios. And I wouldn't be picky about how much they paid me.
Audience: Give us a good show.
Modern show runners: You have too many expectations!
Plus I'm gay
How dare me to expect something that costs 200 millions to make to not be absolute crap!
Also Modern showruners: "goes on strike because they found out the hard way."
Some of the audience: Fine, we'll make our own then.
The rest of the audience: And we'll support you because we want actual good entertainment.
How dare me to want a quality product, clearly I'm in the wrong according to these people at Hollywood.
"We changed 'Who is the fairest of them all' to mean who is the most just."
That is actually an even worse change than it sounds. Cause that implies that the queen (you know, the VILLAIN of the story) was actually a really good person and leader until Snow White turned out to be an even better one than her. In the original, the queen was vain, prideful and only cared about her looks rather than being a good person.
It's also ironic of Hollywood trying to teach people about justice and ethics, considering 95% of them have Epstein'ed more times than we'll ever know. There's literally probably nowhere on Earth more sinful than Hollywood, as at least sex traffickers in third world countries do it for income and survival.
I mean, we all know that a woman cannot be envious or mean, right? The queen must have surely have been victim of some bad evil white straight man, otherwise it woulnd't be modern Hollywood.
Logic is a bigoted offense here sir.
The dead King is at fault. He failed to empower her with his death.
If malifacent has taught me anything it’s that no matter what crimes the villain has done, somehow there’s always a man to blame.
Lately I've been feeling real sorry for you Gundam and all the media lovers out there who are watching a medium collapse right infront of them.
I wish this corporate takeover of music, movie, TV, and gaming hadn't been so solidified before people at large had noticed the drop in quality material. Maybe the tide will turn, but all we can do a laugh and point it out until things improve. Thanks for all you do, Gundam.
The only way the tide can ever turn is if the little guys, the indie creators, can outcompete them in terms of quality, if enough of them don't sell out and if enough people stop buying the corporate crap and focus instead on supporting quality over quantity and "popularity".
That's the only way.
Everyone should consider writing their own comic, tv show, movie, whatever. Even if it doesn’t go beyond the pages written just do it so you can engage with the creative process
Hollywood is finding out fast that we don’t need them anymore. With new creators and smaller studios starting up, one hundred plus years of entertainment (movies, tv shows, video games, music and books) to keep us entertained, I think we’ll be fine.
Yea fuck this i just go to other country media lol
Comedians as well
Yep.
When have we ever needed them?
3:57 "MCU took something interesting and destroyed it" is the best description for MCU
I refuse to accept that we live in a timeline where the MCU continued after Endgame. Everything else afterwards is part of what I call the FUMU (F^^^ You Marvel Universe).
To be honest, the whole multiverse saga storyline is just their attempt on fan service.
Marvel is basically beating a dead horse when they're making new content that's trying to tie into the infinity saga when it's SO MUCH EASIER TO MOVE ON and create something new. Like go ahead shang-chi, the marvels, she-hulk etc, but please don't attempt to cash into the infinity saga when that ship already sailed. Create a new saga instead
Gundam nails it. The guy/gal/whatever that fries my fries is INFINITELY more useful to all of us than a Hollywood writer/actor. This person provides us with something we may not need, nor may it be good for us, but damnit at least we enjoy it!

@@aaronkelly1762 And the poor manga creators, both artists and writers.
I'll always find it funny and ironic how Peter Dinklage virtue signaled to act like dwarves are "used" for entertainment in media, referring to new Snow White not having actual short dwarves, which in actuality only took 6-7 other dwarves out of the acting business and Peter himself got the role in GoT for being a dwarf, it also made him THE dwarf in hollywood with a woke reason as to why no more should be hired. Also, "skin as white as snow" is LITERALLY the reason for her name, if she isn't pale white, it doesnt work. They rewrote the story so much, just call it Princess Woke and make it a different thing.
Homie I got nothing against little people, but sometimes... the braincells be little too.
Just call her Snow Brown.
this whole things shows why too much progression in a society can be bad. its one thing to re look at old norms at what is allowed to see what can be more fair. its another thing to want to destroy any old culture and tradition because it doesn't exactly fit in with a narritive you are trying to create about history
I want to be a more open minded person but everything about the modern left has honestly pushed me to be more right and strict then i like. i hate it but i would rather be more strict and organized, than whatever the fuck is going on with the far left right now.
“Her skin was brown as…errrm. Curry”?
Peter Dinklage is the ‘Tonya Harding’ to the future opportunities of Little People of America. He’s just knee-capping future ‘competition’ for acting roles he wants, guaranteeing himself work, and denying these chances from others.
Gundam should be the model for the A.I that destroys Hollywood
Rachel Zegler has been in two movies and they both tanked. I would definitely not be this smug if I belonged in one of the few movies made by the most iconic director and a billion dollar franchise that lost this much money and that’s all I had to show for my career.
Secret invasion should have been the main plot for the entire new phase or at the very least of 2/3 connected films
The comic version was massive with every single superhero book being “hijacked” by the secret invasion storyline (and you saw that even on the covers with the secret invasion tag)with miriads of subplots and points of view, and a main storyline dedicated comic that analyzed the main story in direct way.
It was like I’m cinematic infinity war
Every hero had his film/comics where there were bits and subplots that converged on the main showdown called infinity war/ secret invasion
Done like that with new movie where slowly we saw infiltrators and beloved heros revalead to be captured and impersonated by skrull agents
With this overarching sensation of uncertainty and hidden meaning behind every hero/villain moves
Paranoia and distrust
Infiltrators reveal with hidden hints sprinkled over several movies
But no
Let condense one of the main marvel saga and transform it a a tv series
What a turd
It could have been genuinely good, a flagship event to have a strong launch for phase four. But you forget, this is the M-She-U.

Bigot spigot.
Or so the general thought-pattern goes in the Hollyweird Hivemind.
And on and on it goes, until destruction. By their own hand or that of the people, who have finally had enough.
Boom.
But wasnt that one of the main criticisms? That to understand one movie, you had to watch like 5 others? 3 of them you may not have an interest in seeing? Scaling down was one of the rare things they did right.
@@Hillthugsta not really
Aside from the main team up movies most marvel film pre infinity war were perfectly able to be consumed as stand alone
They had their distinctive plots and where focused on their hero(easier when you have can present an hero origin story for the first time but not impossibile, they did 3 to su stark movies that had nothing to do with thanos or the infinity stones)
They only had little cameos or subplots related to the main common infinity war plot line
Usually in the post end credit
Secret invasion should have been something like that
Not 20 film with the skrulls as protagonist
But with the skrull lurking in the background of the post credit or with subtle innuendos or hidden double meanings and double agents

I really with they keep striking the whole year. Nothing of value would be lost if them and the studios go under.
bro when you showed all those (now old) comics from when I was in love with comics (not as an avid collector, but a casual appreciator) my heart just sank and i paused the video to make this comment. No stone has been left unturned when it comes to Disney dismantling the things I loved. The last good comics I saw come out of the industry were in 2012, maybe 2013. I was 20 in 2013. I'm now 30 and like millions of people have just completely given up on modern entertainment. Now I am attempting to make my own comic. God bless.
There are third party sites out there that have lots of good comics, new and old alike. That's our last bastion.
Like readcomiconline. My personal favorite.
ElseWorlds Batman, Aether & Empire, Watchmen, Immortal Hulk, Uber, DIE, various Conan the Barbarian titles, .303, Punisher MAX, these are just a few of the things that they have.
They even have Action Comics, starting with the June 1938 issue.
Highly recommended.
DC put out a lot of good stuff during their _Rebirth_ initiative. They ditched the New 52 and focused on telling good stories with their legacy characters using proven writers. Naturally, despite being so successful a few years later DC decided to do _Infinite Frontier_ which introduced a bunch of new "diverse" characters and brought in new writers, almost all of whom suck. It's to the point now where I don't even bother with comics written by women because they're never going to be any good.

I’ve been mostly ignoring the Snow White stuff since honestly I couldn’t care less, but hearing them describe it just makes me more confused, cause it sounds like they’re changing the story completely, so why not just take that plot and make an original movie? Snow White is learning to be a leader? She was a random girl she didn’t want to be the queen! And she did all those chores literally as a form of rent since she just wanted somewhere to sleep at night!
Its the only story Disney tell now - a woman has to learn she's already amazing and just accept being better than everyone else.
Also og Snow White wasn't just a random girl, she was the Princess of the kingdom, the evil queen was her stepmom.

Hey Mr. Gundam. A friend of mine and I started watching the OG Mobile Suit Gundam recently and we are still in awe at how good it is. You were the person who basically gave my first introduction to Gundam, I had heard of it before but it was your references to it and secondary channel that really got me to look into more. So thank you, I'm really excited to get more into as I continue watching it. (Also, it is leagues better than anything Hollywood has put out in the last 20 years!)
Indeed. Yes, the dialog still has that 70-80s era of stiffness, but that’s basically true of anything from that era (seriously, watch an old TV show and compare). The story, action, and style are still great though. It’s downright shocking how good the machines look. And they actually made an anti-war show (and _Gundam_ is an anti-war piece, made by people for whom the atomic bombings were almost as recent as 9/11 is for us today) that doesn’t insult the audience.
i really identified with this one, especially where you took it on the conclusion! much love brother
Honestly this hollywood fiasco is more entertaining than half the crap Ive seen in the past few years in theaters and tv.
I saw a commercial for "Secret Invasion" before and for a second, just a second... I got excited and thought about what it could be and wanted to see it. Then, I remembered Disney. And never turned on an episode.
Yeah, I fell for it and watched the first episode and then proceeded to beat the crap out of myself for being so stupid. Luckily I watch it on a site I don't pay for. So they still didn't get my money!

No worries man. You and nearly everyone else didn't even know it was a thing till we heard "journalists" whining about us not watching it. Talk about funny, ha!

You're not missing anything. I saw it, it's terrible. There's no intrigue, no suspense, just lazy acting and terrible writing. And the finale is a crapfest of terrible CGI boss fight.
At this stage I am more and more convinced that this is a controlled demolition of escapism.
I love this channel. You have some of the funniest comments. All legendary. Never stop.
After returning to Anime after several years I have to agree with Gundam. Even the most basic run of the mill animes have some entertainment value and basic level of coherence that a lot of Hollywood productions seem to have lost.
That do to most anime beings adapted from manga or books. Which need to have a good story or why would anyone read it.
@@zid9611 while I don't consider most Animes really that good. The average seem to be of higher quality. Like comparing the average Isekai with the average Hollywood re-imagining. At least the Anime will have some basic consistency, world building and be entertaining. While the Hollywood's ones in my view get extremely bloated and boring in their storytelling.
Korean cinema made me realize how shitty Hollywood blockbusters have become. One of the things I’ve noticed in Korean films is they put a lot of effort into making you actually care for the characters unlike a lot of US cinema these days.
I can't watch modern day anime anymore. Everything is about demons, witchcraft and magic now. I miss the cyberpunk and mecha era of the 80s and 90s.
@@geist41334 A yes the Isekai curse, sadly, yes there is a over saturation of fantasy Animes. But there are still are some scifi ones that are made even if they are very few in comparison.
They dont want to entertain, they just want to destroy what their "enemies" love
There have been instances of people confirming just that. I can't remember her name but some writer at Marvel actually said she wanted to ruin everything Stan Lee did. I couldn't understand why she would want to work there if her desire was to destroy but you're right, it's because people who picked on them liked this stuff so it's their mission to destroy it.
The Superman cartoon is actually really popping off mate. The ratings are pretty high and the online activity on it has been trending since release. Everyone seems to love Tomboy Lois Lane.
if that's your standard for a good superhero cartoon, you have rather low standard. you're making it the same quality with batman the animated series and superman animated series. news flash, lois has ALWAYS been a tomboy. that's not new.
By the way, if you already mentioned Jujutsu Kaisen, we almost didn't even get that series because the creator did a proof of concept pilot manga and wanted instead to do a manga about idols (yes, really) before his editor told him that the idea in that one pilot manga had a lot of potential.
Funny how Japan can accidentally dish out pieces of media that just curb stomp the preachy western media of our hash tag current year.
And JJK is far from the best Shonen or anime.
@@AndrewManook
I dunno, man. It's pretty damn good, gets close enough to Yu Yu Hakusho (the very best shonen fighting anime IMO) that I love it. It's somewhat of a contender even when compared to giants like Demon Slayer and My Hero Academia.
Demon Slayer is excellent and MHA is good (if somewhat overrated), so it holds up well in my eyes even when compared to very popular series.
Hate to be this way... but manga and anime got their own toxic constants, like loli...🤢🤮
Better for Gege not to kill Gojo.
@@AndrewManook if JJK isn't even the standard, what does that say about the anime shows that are even better than it? that's why a lot of people rather watch anime than woke Western slop
I still find it ridiculous people praised celebrities so much. Glad things are slowly changing especially with the new generations. They dont give a damn about actors
I’d rather have royals than these personality cults… at least the inbreeding keeps them somewhat in check.
I have a friend who's a one-and-done actor here in the UK. He's been on like one episode of every damn thing. Burglar #3, paramedic, taxi driver, stuff like that. Almost never gets a named part, but always gets a couple of lines. He's got about 90 IMDB credits, and he gets tiny cheques from most of them on the regular. He says it's better to do tons of tiny gigs that pay poorly but will send you a royalty/residual cheque a few times a year, than anything else, unless you are top tier talent.
How does one get involved in that?
I guess you call a talent agency and look for production companies that are holding auditions for specific parts. You will be passed on a lot, but they might call for background characters, usually because they saw something in your physical appearance that jives with their vision.
@@drlca6601 Pretty much this. Then, after you've had a few jobs, and racked up a few credits, they start to call you
@@zeebooboo9663 Basically how @drlca6601 said
Amazing video as always Gundam. Always look forward to your new ones and what topic your gonna hit on. Hell i have even started doing gunpla models and learning airbrushing. No lie you were right asf when you said it helps relax you and just get lost. I have always had ADHD and the so many details of doing it lets my brain focus on one thing and slow down some. Keep up the amazing work and do you have any recomendations on a good compressor or tank setup for airbrushing?
See, I want an adaptation of Snow White that sticks closer to the Brothers Grimm's version of the tale: at the end of the fairy tale, the queen goes to Snow White's wedding and they force her to dance with the wedding guests while wearing a pair of hot iron shoes until she falls down dead.
I wonder if any of these actors, directors, or Hollywood executives have ever considered the virtues of sometimes just keeping their mouth shut.
But, but, if they would keep their mouths shut just for a day how would they tell the world how stunning and brave they are?
Sir, I'd like to see them talk so boldly on a Star Destroyer bridge, sir!
_resumes duties_
It's cool that snow white is so clueless about women having power that she can sit next to the lady playing the queen in the movie and just let words fall out of her mouthhole.
I work in the film and TV industry and I’ve been out of work the entire year so far. While being unemployed and no money coming in majorly sucks, I hope this strike is a wake up call for the studios and hopefully an opportunity for some kind of reform or rethink of how these productions are produced.
Because for a while now profit seems to be the only real priority, at the expense of quality and the craft. Way too many productions are poorly written, beloved classic franchises hijacked for ideological propaganda purposes, numerous poorly created nonsensical prequels or sequels, the fixation on the ever stagnating superhero genre.
The entire Film and TV entertainment industry is an utter train wreck and has been this way for quite some time …… I can only hope that progress in these negotiations are made soon, and a reasonable deal is reached. Additionally I hope the studios have both the introspection and self awareness to acknowledge how much damage they’ve done to their own reputation, the entire industry and all the creative artists who work within it, and recognise that drastic changes in its culture are urgently needed. We need to fall in love with filmmaking, and storytelling again. There needs to be less greed and joyless preachy ideological indoctrination. Because right now many of us are “not entertained”. And that is what this industry is fundamentally for …..
I worked retail when I was in my 20s. I can't imagine being upset if I got a check in the mail for $0.02 today because that Slurpee machine I used to clean still serves customers. Imagine being upset that you still get paid for a days work you did 10+ years ago because its "not enough".
The thing everyone is missing is that the reason Emilia Clark was made so strong is to replace captain marvel as the leader of the female avengers. The hatred for brie larson was so strong it must of spooked disney.
The reason shows like Velma and Superman already have a confirmed seconds season is because its cheaper to buy multiple seasons for shows at once. It has something to do with the animation studio and reusing assets and whatnot
My Adventures with Superman is actually pretty good, so I'm fine with that.
Sure, it's no Superman the animated series, but kids will love it, and we know adults love it too. My only complaint is that they're airing it on Adult Swim and not the Cartoon Network hours. (Though, looking at how they treated Steven Universe and Adventure Time, I guess it's better this way.)
To be fair unlike Velma My Adventure with Superman is actually charming and you can tell there's at least one writer that care about it.
Velma everyone must've been smoking crack or something IDK
Also everyone seems to genuinely enjoy the show. It's cute in my opinion
@@darkmetal2412the show itself is pretty mid and the writing is too childish for my taste. I genuinely don't get the praise of "not edgy superman" for once when Clark is usually normal outside of DCU liveaction movies plus I can't get over Lois, Livewire or Deathstroke's designs. Jimmy is exactly what I expected they'd do to him since modern shows despise redheads now a days, the weirdest thing is why pick Slade of all the people to be an antagonist to Superman? Like Slade isn't even in the same league in terms of power, majority of Clark's villains are superpowered or aliens (with the exception of Lex) for a reason. Slade is an assassin that thrives in the crime underworld of DC, that's why he works so well against Batman. Clark has a whole rogues gallery of more dangerous villains. And Clark trying to "discover" himself makes no sense since he spent years of his life training beforehand otherwise he'd never be able to live a normal life or in a highly populated area like Metropolis. The show is really predictable and kinda boring for me, if I wanted to watch pseudo anime then I'd rather just go watch actual anime with a better story.
Since I liked the show years ago, I was curious about the guy who shows the check from Bones, and decided to dig a little. His name is Page Kennedy and was small character in ONE episode in 2010 ("The Bones on the Blue Line") who's only part was to be interrogated for a cumple of minutes. So, twenty-three years later, he's still getting money for a glorified cameo. And he complains!
13 years ago, but your point still stands.
Dude i was just rewatching the first season of jjk, honestly it caught me off guard when you mentioned it lol
What pisses me off about the snow white actress is, if Disney had said "we are doing a live action 1:1 shot for shot remake of the cartoon, here is the script- start memorizing" she would have shut up, grabbed the check, and learned to sing "some day my prince will come." And just smiled and waved and talked about how faithful to the source material the new movie was during the press tours. She is spouting all this SJW "modern audiences" crap because that's what Disney wants her to say, so the film will and should fail. I've been saying it since I was a kid, "Disney sucks, death to the house of mouse."
Let it burn in its own flames that they keep pouring with gasoline.
I mean what would be the point if it was 1:1 remake? I mean in theater things change all the time from one show to the next.
It makes sense to me to complain about books not being faithful since you want to visually see the story happen instead of just reading.
It will be less good most probably, but it's less creatively bankrupt.
@swampdonkey1567 No, it’s still creatively bankrupt. I’ve watched “feminist” and “modern” Snow White before, hundreds of times. Yet Disney somehow manages to choose the most bland and vapid retelling everytime. The only live action version of their movies that was the correct amount of different was The Jungle Book except for the “Wanna be like you” number which was awful. But I digress. Different is only good if it’s coherent and interesting. If it deviates thoughtlessly just for the sake of deviation then it’s a valid mess.
How about stop making remakes?
That actress is worse than evil
I wasn't aware that wanting a show to honour its source of inspiration and not try to force THE MESSAGE down my throat is "having too many expectations".
I guess even expecting mediocrity is too much.
Me, watching Hollywood burn while sipping from a can of Monster: *sensational*
“My give a Dam has broken” “ the kid flipping fries has brought me more joy” 😂
From time to time I rewatch the Lord of the Rings Making Of to remember how invested these people were to make these movies become a reality and how much passionate people can achieve if they really want.
Oh yeah! That was when movies and the industry was doing good. Same with gaming. Back when things were more passion filled. But now? It’s all been drained out of everyone, both industries and audiences from never ending shit and bad things happening.
Same with the Star Wars making. Especially the duelling in the prequels. Months of training
I remember those. My brother got the Extended Edition DVDs of the LOTR movies and I watch all of the hours of bonus material and commentary tracks. Yes, I did have more free time back then, but it was also more interesting to watch these behind the scenes features than the actual movies of today.
@@shcdemolisher Honestly current AAA industry is a pathetic joke. Remember when Arkane used to make games like Dishonored? Or Treyarch with Black Ops 1 & 2? Or even the previous Halo games? Blizzard was the dream destination to work at too. The original studios have all been replaced, similar to the phrase of the "Theseus ship", just being a mockup of what once was great. Only thing that's left is executives who want to milk whales with microtransactions to the brim. This is why I support indies like a madman.
@@notcornelius123 same. The talented people left the ships long ago in all industry’s.
Seeing the actress for snow white dismissing the original like that boggles my mind, how is she trying to launch her career of something while shitting on it at the same time?
As a computer programmer, the concept of residuals/royalties just sounds out of this world. Imagine if I was entitled to keep getting paid by my past employers every time they run a program i worked on no matter how long ago it was. How could you possibly go on strike over not getting enough bonus money for work you did years and years ago and were also paid for at the time you did it?
Dammit gundam..lets get you that Million Sub mark..u deserve it bro
How can people without any significant imagination succeed at reimagining anything?
That interview clip makes me scream into a pillow more than my ex's ever did
Man, I haven’t read Secret Invasion in a few years but the dialogue between Osborne and Captain Marvel lives in my head. Marvel was there to kill Osborne and he just destroyed him with words. He asked him something like you really thought you were Captain Marvel didn’t you? A warrior, a protector a man of honor? That question wrecked him. I think he flew away crying. If the TV show at least attempted something on that level even if it didn’t land. I could respect they tried do to something.
10:24 “Go watch Jujutsu Kaisen”. Amen, brother
So let me get this straight, every actor no MATTER how small the role is or how long AGO that was gets a payment every month for life because they shot a few scenes in a tv drama. That's...........insane. What incentive do they have to work when they are paid forever.
Because the money is shit and you need to keep doing it
Residuals aren't that much, especially if you live in a city that's expensive as hell. Some actors actually love their craft and want to keep working and improving.
And, of course, the prestige of being well known and eventually getting that Oscar gold - you know, the ultimate ego status symbol.
Ego. Most actors already live weathy; but not having constant attention is what keeps them alive. Remember 2020 and Gal Gadot singing "Imagine?" They could literally do nothing and it'd be better than what they usually end up doing.
@sigurther8476
It's still free money for doing next to nothing, though. I read somewhere that like 90-95% of actors can never quit their day jobs. Only like 5-10% are regularly employed. Same for writers, too. They live several months off of one check for one gig, trying to find another gig to survive another few months. So even among the entertainment industry itself, the level of ego and narcissism from the top 5% is insane, cause the overwhelming majority of actors and writers don't "make it" in the industry.
@@MarvinPowell1most actors aren’t wealthy. Just the big names.
I hope the writers keep the strike going for as long as possible. I would love to see these creatively bankrupt studios lose money.
Not just lose money, I want them to collapse and then new studios rise out of the ashes. Bring real passion back as the standard!
I like My Adventures with Superman for what it is. Nothing mind-blowing or anything, just fun. Maybe it’s fatigue from the critical, Velma-esque conceptual trends of the past few years but a generally enjoyable and good-natured superhero show feels like improvement.
Honestly, Gundam's criticisms felt pretty surface level.
Also the reason why My Adventures with Superman feels like it's for a younger audience is because it was made for one. It was originally meant to air on Cartoon Network, only for Warner Bros to movie it to Adult Swim instead, which surprisingly worked out really well.
how the standards has fallen. by comparing to the batman animated series, x-men, spiderman, SUPERMAN, justice league, and justice league unlimited. it has fallen indeed. tsk, tsk, tsk.
I think it's mostly because the ones working on the show also worked on the Netflix She-Ra cartoon and many people were burned and don't want to give this a chance.
I'd blame streaming services trying to push something out fast is probably a factor everyone should be looking at. Like companies are putting quantity over quantity, so you get a some undercooked/ half baked stories that don't really work, or diamonds in the rough that just get canceled because they never bothered promoting it. (Case in point Velma and Fired on Mars, where one show was heavily promoted and everyone hated it, and the other has garnered a cult following, but I know none of you guys heard of it until now.)
@@cheeseburgersuperior1874 I mean, not every DC show can be on the same level as the DCAU. Granted, shows could get a lot edgier back then than they do now, like Static Shock having a school shooting episode or Captain Planet having an anti-drug episode where someone ODs (yeah. Captain Planet got dark sometimes)
I'd probably put My Adventures with Superman on a similar scale to Green Lantern or Batman the Brave and The Bold; though it's a bit early to properly rank it.
8:55 Warner probably didn't approve 2 seasons of velma right off the bat, they rarely do that -and when they do and the show underperforms they cancel the second season, just like any network/producer. The thing is with all the "hate watching" weak minded individuals did, Warner actually made a shit ton of money for hbo, a lot of people came back to pay subscriptions just to "hate watch velma", because piracy is apparently a sin worse than any other
All I have to say, is that ever since Blackrock got involved to basically use trillions of dollars to push dumb things because of what the CEO of it wants, all these companies feel free to go single digit IQ endlessly damn what the fanbases care because they're now basically covered for life and don't have to worry about ever being affected by imploding movie/series sales anymore even if what they make like Indy 5 is a giant tire fire.
And yet Marvel is failing before our eyes, Disney has almost everything it has outside of the theme parks up for sale and WB...the less said about their financial state the better.
Blackrock and every other ESG company that supports this nonsense do not have limitless capital. They do, however, have boards of directors that will be asking why their quarterly earnings are in the red.
Keep supporting good projects and ignoring this woke garbage. The market will sort itself out.

The strike will be a way for studios and production companies to scrap projects that are struggling, too expensive to maintain, or doomed to failure, and then they can blame it on the strike. Same thing happened after the 2007 strike.
Since a lot of rich people are in Hollywood I guess it's no wonder many self-entitled people are there. This got me wondering which is better now. Hollywood or Bollywood?
I have a friend that works at the Chrysler factory but doesn't get a royalty check for every car he helped build when they're sold or for every mile the car drives. Weird.
I dont think its writers being forced to work on stuff they dont like. I think its people who's own personal morals and political views are so unpalatable that they have to hide it underneath something people genuinely loved to try and get people to eat it.
Kinda like if someone snuck into a restaurant and put a turd in your BLT. Then when you yell about there being a turd in your sandwich. They come out and insult you for not wanting to eat their turd.

Lol in the original film the Evil Queen, is the queen, she already has power. Are these people stupid? Snow White was going to inherit the kingdom even with her father having passed, but her step-mother was driven by envy to try kill her. She lost everything, but instead of becoming overcome by grief, she was grateful for the Hunstman's mercy, the kindness of the 7 Dwarves, and strives to make the best of her situation.

“Upcoming box office bomb Snow White” is the best line in this video
In the original German fairy tale, the evil stepmother uses the word "beautiful" when speaking to the magic mirror:

It's fine to interpret things differently, but changing "most beautiful" to "most just" is absurd and silly.
