Remember when he acknowledged he’s aware of his bad arguments and lack of care then smiled at the camera in his black panther review
Wait what? 😂

"Well if there's one thing I've learned from listening to other's opinions on the Internet, is that people usually tend to stick closely to one thing they strongly disagree with and then just ignore everything else."
-Cosmonaut Marcus
Isn’t that exactly what cosmonaut channel does
It’s been a while since I’ve seen him, but I recall his She Hulk video was pretty bad. He’s the type of guy who listened to Dan Slott saying the show is “comic accurate” when he only points to the recent runs than the older runs that people point to the most.
Heck I’ll say it here, Itsagundam deserves more credit given he actually read through the Savage She-Hulk run for his coverage of the Disney+ show, the guy actually made me like Frog Man more than how he was treated in the show.
Eyyyyyy
Yeah he made videos defending she hulk and last of us 2
Marcus is literally the perfect Consumer, that pretends like he isn't.
He's an insult to consumers, imo.
I’ll still never forget the time he said he watched Inifnity War several times in the theater and said he’s going to watch it again. Truly one of the most pathetic consumer mentalities I’ve ever heard
the worst kind of consumer
@@Master_baiter7what's wrong with liking something?
@@bryon5471He is a hypocrite. Also the sequels suck
Great job on tearing this guy apart. He's been calling out people who disagree with his opinions.
The fact he thinks that he's a chad nope Marcus is just a shill and content not great.
Isn't JJ Plagiarisms guilty of the same?
@@redjirachi1 not the same thing
@@redjirachi1 because cosmonaut is unjustifiabbly toxic

I love the feeling of my own opinions being validated!!
Your gut reactions and intuitive impressions are often the correct ones.
Trust your gut!
This is either funny satire or the most unintentionally funny comment of all time
@@docflightsconfirmation bias coming in nicely toobz
Me too
"psuedo intellectuals" summed up 💀
The worst thing about him is that he talks like his takes are not just personal opinions but facts.
Exactly
dumbass doesn’t know that reviewers do this all the time that’s how they form their opinions is by stating it like it is fact think of it as an argumentative essay
Literally what this guy also does in his videos... guess they're 2 sides of the same coins
Not really. He is in the sphere of movie reviewers on TH-cam, and just has a strong opinion that he likes to state. But he rarely belittles people for liking it, and if he does, it’s always a joking matter or a film that is universally disliked.
Thankfully someone else said it, I find the cosmo guy to be so aggravating to listen to. He’s so arrogant it hurts. Glad I’m not the only one who feels this way.

“Star Wars should be simple”
- Cosmotard Bullshit Hour
Liking or disliking a movie is completely fine but the problem is that Cosmonaut usually tends to be rude when someone else has a different opinion and doesn’t explain why he’s right and the other person is wrong, like when someone commented that they think Revenge of the sith is better than all the sequels and he just said “Yeah…if you’re an idiot” and basically didn’t elaborate, might’ve been a joke but from what I know he tends to rude when it comes to opinions he doesn’t agree with
You wanna know why revenge of the sith is the best out of the prequels is because it sucks the least, it is the least boring and has the most interesting plot points. I tried to watch phantom menace again not to long ago but it made me fall asleep because of how long and fuckin boring it is. And attack of the clones is barley better only because it has like 4 or 5 scenes that are interesting. Revenge of the sith is the best out of a line up of shitty prequels because it focuses less on the stupid shit and instead focuses on cooler shit
And if you wanna talk about the new sequels they made, I would say the first one they made (forgot what it's name is) is the best one. But that's not really saying much sense it's pretty much just a new hope but with Ray. And if the best movie out of the sequel trilogy is just a glorified remake of A New Hope then I will confidently tell you that revenge of the sith is more interesting and more hype than the sequels will ever be. Name me one scene from the sequel trilogy that is more dope than the final fight in revenge of the sith between anikin and Obi-Wan
@@bryon5471 “Politics dumb get to the action already”
And JJ Plagiarisms gatekeeping by saying sequel fans aren't real fans or calling Jake Skywalkers defenders delusional is much better? The same kind of people who said the prequels ruined their childhood are now saying the sequels ruined their childhood. And this is coming from someone who thinks the sequel trilogy was the weakest of the three
@@bryon5471I wasn’t talking about the sequels or prequels actual quality I was just talking about how Cosmonaut responded to a different opinion
This guy is one of the ultimate examples of how out of touch film criticism has become on the internet. I can only imagine his reaction whenever somebody tries to tell him about his contradictory standards.
Sorry someone has a different taste in media than you
I imagine his reaction to be nothing like dudes like you in this comment section
@@GodloveszazaWhat did you say here? It's hard to understand
@@bryon5471 I’m sorry you don’t know how to read
He seems to take criticism well. In fact, a lot of his live streams are fans or others telling him they disagree, or thought he had a bad opinion, and he usually just brushes it off or trys to explain him self a bit more, without being rude about it.
Star Wars aside, his coverage of Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man trilogy was the most ill intended approach to a film review I’ve ever seen.
Edit: Cosmo fans in the replies seem to have a difficult time understanding that just because Marcus said he liked a movie doesn’t mean that his bad faith takes for cheap laughs , inconsistent standards, and his often illiterate views on cinematic language are above criticism.
He was deadass attacking the Raimi fanbase too, in multiple videos he made.
Really? I remember him actually liking them and giving them good reviews. His critiques were ones I actually agree with (Maguire just sort of never getting past the pushover personality type that he had BEFORE getting his powers, MJ being an absolute monster in that trilogy, etc.).
I remember he REALLY shit on the TASM movies, though, and shit all over DCEU, Snyder, and the fans.
@@OrthoLou granted its been a while since I’ve viewed them. If you’re interested, there’s a TH-camr named HiTop Films who covered each movie in individual videos that shut down a lot of Cosmonaut’s shallow criticisms of the movies here and there. He did a far better job of analyzation than I ever could.
@@thenosebud HiTop Films often has great stuff.
Yea his take on Spiderman was complete nonsense!
His take on episode 6 was the most smooth brained shit I ever watched. All he did was drop the f bomb every 4 seconds.
@@mtndewisawesome3951 what did he say about Return of the Jedi that wasn’t true though?
Ewoks are fucking stupid tho
@@JOVONO ironically, his return of the jedi take is literally the only take i agree with him on
One thing i love about star wars is how they have us rooting for terrorists lol
The rebel alliance are terrorists you numbskull. George Lucas litterally based the conflict of the Vietnam War. Vietnam (Rebel Alliance, anti-fascist) the galactic empire (America, Fascist) probably too much for your chud brain
Does everybody remember his JoJo video. The video he said he made without even rewatching the show, causing him to make a bunch of false claims like calling Fugo a calm and cool guy, the guy who stabbed one of his team mates because he got the wrong answer or how his stand is a rage filled monster that is literally drooling from rage.
Yes I also remember him calling Polnareff a funny coward even though Polnareff is not a coward.
This channel is going places, I have been waiting for more people to call out this loser for years...
That guy always had awful takes. He claimed that the reason most video game movies sucks so much is because most plot in video games are bad. Even though the most infamous show or movie adaptations are bad because they strayed to far from the source material like the first Mario Bros. movies and Resident Evil shows/movies.
Nah I kinda agree, not that most games have bad stories but a lot of these games they adapt have pretty generic or basic stories that we accept because the gameplay is good. Mario for example, does not have a good story, not even gonna give that any credit, but it’s fun asf.
The guy has so little literacy of the media he consumes that he called Fugo from Jojos bizarre adventure a calm cool guy with no personality.
The character who's stand is the literal embodiment of his anger and stabbed his teammate with a fork because he couldn't do math correctly.
@@makairidah8354Not to mention that he called Polnareff "Funny Coward" despite him trying to assassinate FUCKING DIO.
The man who tried to assassinate DIO (Which almost succeeded) despite being the last man standing in his POV.
(dude makes reviews)
Nobody:
Absolutely nobody:
This dude: I'm gonna put this guy in a series called Analyzing _EVIL_
The Cosmonothing Lack of Variety Hour not being able to understand the plot of TPM until 20 years after its release is beyond baffling to me, along with this gem of a quote; “sTaR wArS sHoUlD bE sImPlE.”
Star wars should be simple is a nothing statement by the way. What does that even mean??
@@josesosa3337 When i first watched EP 1, i was a child (90s kid) and i was able to understand everything. Like seriously, whats with all those SW purists not understanding that movie? Because anything else than "Empire bad, rebels good" is too complicated to comprehend? Or because it had one senate scene that was barely 2 minutes long?
And they say the TikTok generation is lacking attention span lmao
@@josesosa3337 It means "no nuance, no morally grey elements, no politics especially".
@@АлексейТабаков-ы8в Honestly, I am fed up with people using those buzz words and arguments to justify all the slop western entertainment has been producing for well over a decade and a half now.
Mr. Freeze in Batman TAS was legitimately nuanced. Sure, Freeze was screwed over, wanted to save his wife, and avenge himself and his wife against the guy that ruined his life. However, the show was smart enough to understand that at the end of the day he was a villain that was committing acts of evil to get what he wanted.
Compare that to anything from Disney Starwars, and already the “Nuance” excuse Disney shills hide behind falls apart.
His video was almost a word by word copy of the RLM review. He's a joke.
Blurryfilms, sw explained, fake kyle katarn, louise july, organized chaos, lightspeed are also good candidates for this format
S.K. is also a good choice. He has terrible takes when it comes to Spider-Man and a horrible review style.
SW Explained had such a tragic downfall. I think it was after TLJ that he went to the Shill Side. HelloGreedo as well.
@@ltb1345 HelloGreedo was a shill before shills really existed.
Hellogreedo is a good choice too
Nerdrotic and Doomcock too. Be unbiased
Remember, this guy (Cosmonaut) thinks the Fast and Furious franchise is a masterpiece. So, his opinions on anything pop culture is automatically invalid.
So by that same logic, he thinks the DCEU is a success
Dude said it took him almost 15 years to understand the plot of The Phantom Menace.
He doesn't think it's a masterpiece. He says he knows it's shit. He knows it's good for just "turn your brain off" type of watching
And that she hulk was good
No, he says he likes it because it’s awful. You’re doing the same thing the guy in this video is doing: Not taking evidence with context.
I'll always remember him most for his very brain-dead Batman review where he called Tim Burton a racist because a single trash article convinced him and got him emotional.
He's never been a very good thinker.
I think he just has never been a big Tim Burton fan that was his main point of which is understandable
The racist part is probably part truth and part joke like many of his comments
@@JOVONO Stop meatriding.
@JOVONO Oh, you should have said he's not a fan. That completely justifies it.
@@BrandontheAwesome get over yourself
Just because you like a series of poorly made movies and he pointed out some flaws in them
@@JOVONO Get over yourself. Just because you like a guy who made a poor review attempting to bash a series of well-made movies.
Honestly I was affected by this dudes style and ened up repeating his takes because I thought that he was cool, until my sisters called me out on that nonsense. What made me stop watching his channel was his video on The Phantom Menace, it was that video that encouraged me to have a mind of my own, but the straw that made unsubscribe from his channel was his video on Jojo's Bizzare Adventure. I haven't watched the that franchise, but I and other Jojo's fans couldn't take guy seriously.
Little did we know that Marcus would be one of many creators here on TH-cam who would set the precident for bad media criticism.
Firstly, Marcus' tone of voice and presentation is all implying the mentality of "I have the controversial opinion, therefore I am smart than the majority". What's worse, is Marcus's arguments are more about whats and concepts, than the whys or working used to come to those conclusions, because he feels as if he need not justify his beliefs, because to him, they aren't beliefs, they're facts.
Secondaly, Marcus is both reckless and specific with his diction, this being on of his many inconsistent arguments. This is something Shady Durags and Just A Robot covered in their response to Marcus' review of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law. Marcus both flippantly uses terms and words in anyway he sees fit, even when previously he states precisely what he means when he says terms like "vocal minority".
Additionally, Marcus is also a surface level fan, not just of Star Wars, but fiction in general. When defending She-Hulk or criticising Jojos Bizzare Adventure Part 5, he will only explore the series from a surface level, he doesn't dive deep into what the events of the plot mean. As you said he wants them to be "dumb and simplistic"
Finally, Marcus constantly misrepresents the media he is talking about and the critiques and complements to said media. He is more than welcome to enjoy whatever he can, the issue is Marcus is arguing their OBJECTIVE quality not the SUBJECTIVE enjoyability
I would argue that precedent was set much earlier with RLM, Chris Stuckman, Cionfused Matthew, and etc.
CVH is like Jimquisition, he deluded himself into thinking being a contrarian for the sake of being contrarian makes him smart. It doesn’t, it makes him an idiot desperately trying to convince others that he is smart.
@@kaiser9287 they at the very least has more to the arguments than Marcus, however I would be lying if I said they hadn't taken a nose dive into that same mentality, especially now
@@Captain-Thievius what's worse is his controversial opinion is simply that, an opinion that's controversial. He isn't using logic, proof or reasoning to explain WHY he believes what he believes, he just says various different points, but fails to connect them cohesively
@@krnatsu I know what you mean. I’ve dealt with a lot of people irl and online who act in such a pretentious manner. I always hated them because they constantly have to perform mental gymnastics to justify someone or something without even trying to understand what the actual problem is.
It’s like their egos are being insulted because someone expresses honest disdain for someone or something that doesn’t personally involve them.
You going to do one on Red Letter Media?
As someone that actually likes the RLM dudes, that would be interesting to watch...
i dont always agree with their opinions, but they are very consistent.
Thanks for being my daily reminder about why star wars fans are the worst
"this youtuber doesn't like the prequels! He's literally evil!!!! Hes not really a fan because he likes the movies I don't" - the premise of this video. This is a very sad man.
@@ZeekeDM Which immediately tells us you didn't watch this video in the slightest.
been feeling this about this guys for a while...
Dude im really happy to see this dude called out
I'm hoping someone calls out S.K.
@@BrandontheAwesomeColin has
@@Roty24-f6s Colin's just as bad. Guy supports crap like MSM 2.
We need one about HelloGreedo NOW. HE was shilling DeesneiWars more than anyone back in the days.
While also claiming to be a fence-sitter. I respected him for being one of the first to call out Rogue One being a shit film, but after the Gina Carano firing I couldn’t follow anymore shill channels.
I completely forgot about him
It's almost like you can have an argument against one movie, that don't necessarily apply to other movies because you know....every movie is different
So Sabine can be a Mary Sue in Rebels (as a criticism) but Mary Sues literally don't matter in anything else Star Wars?
I hope you're joking....
you serous?
@@j.j.plagiarisms7149 well what other character has he referred to as a Mary sue in Star Wars?
It’s funny because he was one of the FEW that had a good take on “Black Panther,” I didn’t watch any of his other stuff though. Much like the “Prequel Hate” Bandwagoning seems to be a lot of content creators Achilles heel: “Black Panther Hate,””The Batman/ Home Hype train” and that weird middle ground where the “Fallout” sits.
I never clicked faster than anything in my life
Same!
I clicked fast too!!
Anomaly Inc Had Made a Revenge of Prequel about Cosmonaut, i dont know how May Times He sayed one Thing Like how Bad x is but 5 min later says its good only 5 min later to say its Bad Cosmonaut is a joke
As if his she hulk video wasn’t proof enough.
He would criticize something like Batman v Superman for not portraying its main heroes properly
But then somehow not criticize something like The Last Jedi for doing the Exact Same Thing.
Hypocrite.
@@brandenmanuel2037 Star Wars isn’t based on any source material and can be made into whatever based on who the director is
But the DCEU movies are based on the comics where there are great characters and they were being made poorly in movies which as Marcus said he doesn’t mind changes when adapting for movies so long as it fits and improves stuff but the Zack Snyder characters aren’t improvements they are far worse then the characters they are adapting and are ruing the comic book characters reputation
You’ll probably say that there were books and comics set after the original trilogy but those aren’t cannon and never were and George Lucas especially never thought they were cannon and he’s the one that sold Star Wars so that others could make movies and the movies he did make before selling Star Wars were also bad (the prequels)
@@JOVONO I don’t mind changes either (to any story, sequel, or adaptation), but what happened with both BvS and TLJ is that the changes either don’t improve the characters or don’t make sense.
When I said that Marcus would not criticize the last Jedi for doing exact same thing/not portraying characters properly, I wasn’t referring to the books or comics (or saying that the movies should be more like them), I was referring to the previous movies.
We saw Luke standing up to Vader without killing him, thinking there was still good in him even though Vader was pretty much the second most evil person in the galaxy, but with Kylo Ren all of the sudden he just decided to kill him even when he was nowhere near as bad as Vader. And yes I understand that Luke may have changed in 30 years, but the movie should’ve shown that. It should’ve shown us why and how he changed, not just turn him into something he isn’t. The Last Jedi isn’t consistent with the previous films and why I think Luke isn’t portrayed properly.
I called Marcus a hypocrite because he believes that there are things you shouldn’t do with Batman (like making him kill) when adapting source material, but when it came to making sequels with Luke, all of the sudden that same logic didn’t matter. As if consistency doesn’t matter when making a sequel, but somehow does when making an adaptation.
In my opinion, consistency is one of the most important things when making sequels. If you don’t have that, the whole thing falls apart and will look sloppy which is what I saw with TLJ.
(An inconsistent mess that ignored everything that came before it)
I would’ve been fine with everything in the movie, but the changes made no sense. It seems like Rian Johnson was only interested in getting a reaction from the fans rather than telling a good story that’s consistent with everything else.
(And Snyder was only interested in making “Edge Lord Fan-fiction” as Marcus said, rather than making faithful adaptations)
@@brandenmanuel2037 BVS damaged peoples perception of Batman and Superman, most people think Superman is boring, because of Snyders crap. That didn’t happen with TLJ. The Last Jedi while misunderstanding Luke to a pretty devastating degree it didn’t cause the impact that BVS did, nor did it misunderstand Luke as bad as BVS misunderstand Batman or Superman.
@@DrJareld To be fair, that's because the general lubmci know Luke Skywalker. With DC it's harder because not a lot of people read comics.
Also, TLJ did misunderstand Luke as bad as BVS.
@@JOVONO The source material for Star Wars are the six films made by Lucas. That's the baseline. It cannot be made into whatever. So right there you are wrong.
Wow, really proving you are the fake fan here, huh?
All the prequel haters who jumped on the red letter media bandwagon and drove George Lucas out of Star Wars need to be brought to justice. One by one. Nice work mate!
@@QuickPoker Anomaly Inc. started doing so.
@@BrandontheAwesome yes I am a fan of his work 😎
@@QuickPoker So am I! Also, Icy the Fire Mage has been working on debunking Plinkett.
Why?
@@marcinmcula99 Because the prequels didn't deserve the hate they got.
People dislike inconsistency because it means the reason given is not the real reason, and they don't want to admit what the real reason is. People defend inconsistency because because they value being seen to agree with the unstated reason for the inconsistency more than they value honesty.
That's the problem. People just choose ignorance and contradictions. Both Truth and knowledge represents as lights and God's words to both Christian and Islamic people. These are the things that gives people mental and spiritual freedom and safety, Now people today are choosing deceitful and beguiling words to trick people who, like JJ said people who are illiterate be on their side. This is a path to the Dark Side in the real world.
It is never this deep. Most the time he’s just having fun, he’s here to make people laugh alot of the time.
Well than he’s a bad comedian
@@runisa what?
@@donrobbiedeathstare272you said he does it to make people laugh? My reply was then he’s a bad comedian because that’s what comedians do make people laugh don’t get it confused with Canadians.
@@runisa but it’s a stupid comment because he obviously does make people laugh.
@@donrobbiedeathstare272 he doesn’t do it to make people laugh though, that’s not he reasoning for making videos, like every TH-camr you’re gonna get a laugh out of some people that doesn’t mean they do it for that reason
I didn’t laugh during his videos so he obviously isn’t funny to everyone.
I genuinely don't know how anyone can be a fan of TCW without liking any of the three prequels AT ALL. It just doesn't make sense to me.
@@OrthoLou Alas, people claim TCW made the prequels watchable. No offense, but TCW is an insult to the prequels.
@BrandontheAwesome I'm not really in THAT camp, either. I like the show; many episodes are truly epic, but I do see some of the goofy canonical issues it creates, like how many times Anakin apparently comes into contact with Dooku between eps II and III and Asohka staying alive for wayyyy too long.
I just disagree with the idea that it "saved" the prequels and made them watchable AND the idea that it's awful and insults and diminishes the prequels.
@@OrthoLou If you like the show that's fine, but as someone who grew up with the vastly superior Clone Wars microseries TCW just feels like a slap in the face.
@@BrandontheAwesome So it's OK to like TCW in spite of its flaws, but not anything made by Disney? Why? They're both guilty of a lot of the same things. Butchered characters, unrealistically powerful rookie Jedi, disregard for continuity, the list goes on. Why does one get a pass and not the other?
@@christianwelch4206I think the difference when it comes to most people is the fact that TCW, despite all its contradictions and retcons, was produced during the Lucas Era of the franchise, and so it’s much easier for Hardcore fans to forgive than something of similar quality that comes out of the Disney era given how controversial the sequels were and how much they destroyed the brand imo
Welp... you've moved to personal insults in the first 20 seconds... this'll be something
This is the best series on yt since racks rackas Ronald McDonald skits
Those were classic lmao
People who say they hate him obviously don't pay attention to his videos. Most of what he says is tongue-in-cheek, a point he's made repeatedly, and people just don't seem to understand. It's okay not to like something, but hating it just to hate it is not the best excuse.
That's the dumbest excuse I've ever seen. You might as well have said his videos are ironic or something.
@@dzigayu4944 He’s a TH-cam movie critic. Do you really think everything he says is meant to be taken seriously? He makes jokes. He pokes fun at people. He has his own opinions and doesn’t care what other people think. Hating him just to hate him isn’t a good reason.
Nah but he fun to watch tho
Agreed, his videos on bad superhero movies are very entertaining
Cosmonaut solos ‼️
Most entertaining critic on TH-cam💯
Womp womp
Nah he's AIDS
🤓👆
His “Problem with DC characters” video made me roll my eyes so hard
@@lacolem1 I actually have plans to debunk that video.
He isn’t criticizing DC characters, he’s criticizing their media in where they’re misrepresented. Batman is his second favorite Super Hero.
@@DrJareld Ironic given how DC represents most of their characters better than Marvel.
@@BrandontheAwesome really? If we are only counting animation? Thats pretty true, Live action though, Marvel has been beating DC for years.
@@DrJareld Eh, not quite. The MCU butchered Spidey, and a lot of heroes recently.
I figured out his game listening to him talk about Rebels.
Nothing wrong about changing your mind because of new evidence, or because your tastes evolve. But Cosmonaut is just scattershot, and feels like his opinions are purely reactionary
As a Star Wars fan I can tell you that Star Wars is more than just lightsabers, then space battles, the cool a ton scenes. Star Wars is about the choices we choose to make. And those decisions can either be good or evil. The Sith are fueled by selfish intentions and therefore are never happy and only crave more. True the Dark Side makes then physically powerful, but in terms of spiritual morality they cannot make the hard decisions. However, while the light side may not make a Jedi physically strong it allows him to make the hard decisions and embrace a power beyond his compression. The light allows the user to fully let go of himself and all selfish things to embrace its power. Much like how Christians believe whole heartily in a God which they cannot see, but know He's there and wields a power they too can have access too of they only choose to embrace Him. George Lucas based the Force on God. As someone who read books on George Lucas as a school project and watched a 3 hour long documentary on the man. When you hear George talking about Star Wars you can tell everything in it is from a personal experience. How he explains the Sith, the Jedi, The Force. Good and Evil.
Sorry, but the Christian part is just wrong.
George Lucas took inspiration from buddhism for the Jedi/Sith than any monotheistic religions, even the clothing style reflects that. George also confirmed this in background interviews.
This also can be seen with the whole concept of "balance". The force is not a "god", because a god has rules and a will of its own. The force does not, it's merely a tool and it's completely up to force sensitive beings how they use that tool. At least it was before Disney changed everything.
Binary dogma (like it exists within Christianity) actually gets called out in George Lucas' Star Wars.
It's actually a huge point of the prequel films and the main reason why the old Jedi Order fell, because they treated their light side as a "god" who cannot be questioned. Luke did it, he rejected the dogma and embraced balance - and therefore redeemed his father, after all the old Jedi failed Anakin.
If anything, Star Wars is anti-christian because it is anti-dogmatic.
Balance is the core theme, not submission to the force (or a god).
I'm afraid you completely missed that point of Star Wars.
@@LegioXXI I'm sorry, who are you?
@@Red-Renegade-Studios Well said. Despite the power fantasy of the Jedi and the Sith, it really sucks to actually be them. Jedi constantly have to hold themselves at a high standard and the Sith always have to sleep with one eye open. Yoda’s lesson to Luke on Dagobah perfectly sums up the deep commitment of the Jedi and how the Dark side is not stronger, just more seductive.
Even in the kotor games, despite trying to remain grey, you have to chose the light side or the dark side at the end of it all.
For me, my favorite aspect about Starwars was the Criminal Underworld. Smugglers, Bounty Hunters, Pirates, etc. They all came in different shades of good and evil. Some had a sense of honor and ethics, some were ruthless and would do anything for money.
One aspect I really wished was focused on in Starwars is the idea of: Laws do not equal morality.
@@Captain-Thievius Hence why one of my favorite characters is Jango Fett, besides the fact he stars in my favorite Star Wars videogame.
@@BrandontheAwesome Did you know there was a prequel comic to Bounty Hunter called Jango Fett: Open Seasons?
I get it. In order to be a diehard fan of some thing, are you have to read books based on a world that was created for film. You must also reference the books in your reasoning of why you like the films. I don’t know I never realized this before.
He likes the She-hulk show and thinks it's good that should tell you everything right there
CVH is almost everything wrong with YT movie critics. Sometimes I genuinely think he's a very elaborate troll, because there's no way someone can be this disingenuous, hypocritical, pretentious and arrogant.
This video is literally the funniest shit ever 😭😭 “grrr he claims he’s a star wars fan but he hasn’t read all 40 billion books” he’s watched all the movies and has sited new hope as a perfect 10/10 and watched it 100s of times. Being a fan of something isn’t power-scaling what material you’ve liked the most. The books don’t matter all things considered. Old man yells at cloud.
Cosmonaut is basically the Under the mayo of movies
Did you take your meds today grandpa?
Did you feed your dog chocolate today chump?
I unsubbed from the cosmonaunt the second he said last jedi was good.
@@Lilbluepenguin10 I stopped watching him when he tried defending She-Hulk. Funnily enough I subbed to Shady Doorags after I watched him debunk Cosmonaut's She-Hulk video.
@@BrandontheAwesomeShady Doorags is a great reviewer
@@CadeSkywalkerEU You kidding? He's my favorite reviewer to watch! He's got a great sense of humor, and tries to help make people better.
@@BrandontheAwesome always loved his JLU and King of the Hill videos, he always explains his points well and can show the nuances of each story.
@@CadeSkywalkerEU Yeah, he's part of the reason I started watching Justice League. And I am hoping to watch King of the Hill when I get the chance.
The comic book thing doesn't make sense. Just because he reads books, doesn't mean he has to mention them. He said he hasn't read a comic in a long time.
Doesn’t that make it worse because he is actually not critically analyzing the materials that he is supposed to review. That makes him worse a critic should have a set standard on a subjective medium with at least some coherency to the source material.
This bloke pulled everything outa context just to call another feller evil ,cant make this up
Please do Pillar of Garbage or the Fandom initiative
I second this.
I think this guy is the happiest star wars fan
Cosmonaut is so unlikeable
Idk, I like him
Seeing his reviews on the prequels proved to me he’s someone who should never be taken serious.
As a cosmonaut fan, some of your arguments actually pretty good
Yeah but it’s also pretty dumb considering this guy is acting as if Marcus has to be perfect, never change his opinion and cater to everyone else’s opinions and likes and dislikes
@@JOVONO The problem is Marcus isn't perfect, no one is, but he acts like it. He claims one thing in one video and then changes it in the next with no rhyme or reason. He's also very reckless with what he says and he also seems to lack knowledge of what he is talking about.
@@JOVONOIt's not what he likes or dislikes. It's that he's a hypocrite.
@@BrandontheAwesome when does he act like he’s perfect? I’ve watched a lot of his videos and his live streams and never got the idea that he thinks hes perfect.
@@DrJareld Simple, he constantly acts like his audience agrees with him, as if he is spittin' facts, which he clearly doesn't.
Damn this star wars shit aint no joke 😭 💀
Cosmonaut is literally the epitome of being a contrarian purely for views.
Dude doesn’t have an original opinion in his head and will flip the script the second his following gives him blowback 🤷🏽♂️
Does he have some bad takes? Sure but hes also entertaining so
The “Why It Sucks” and “You Guys Are Just Mean” videos are very polarizing if you look at how he approaches his reviews and criticisms. One thing he will shit on something at the surface level (what the most general RLM types say) and another thing he will just follow the herd of brain dead consumers and say it’s fine stop criticizing. I’ve not seen a more disingenuous, misinformative, cynical person with this big a following. Before I usually disagreed with his takes, now I know why because he’s never consistent and he chooses when he wants to pay attention and when he wants to say “it’s bad filmmaking/ writing”; it’s honestly hilarious because for someone who claims to favor “Good Writing” he sure likes to turn his brain off when it’s something he just doesn’t wanna like, case in point the prequels. You shouldn’t trust someone who feigns ignorance when it’s convenient for them
I hate his guts, but this is pretty petty. You should be far above Cosmonaut. He steal your girl or guy or something?
Finally, i’ve been waiting for this. This guy goes any way the blows.
I am still waiting on your Analyzing Evil: Darth Jar Jar. Someone needs to do it before The Vile Eye picks it for April Fools
I personally think the reason his reviews of the movies he talks about are so inconsistent is because he's a plagiarist.
All he does is imitate the statements made by other people.
which could explain why his reviews tend to range from feeling well thought out to being downright moronic.
Videos like this remind me why in depth breakdowns and citing your sources are so important. This video is generally a cherry picked mess. I think if you instead went though his prequel video and relayed out his points and then criticized them it’d be fine, but this video just takes a few statements, rips them free of context, and then baby rages about them for 5 mins at a time. It’s low level content schlock. At least when people what cosmo he’s joking and having a goofy time so I can enjoy the video regardless of the value of his points. (I do think that his perspective is generally good, i disagree with a lot of different opinions but I at least understand where they are coming from.
Dude really spent nearly 15 minutes yapping about how some random person on the internet is a fake fan because they don’t like the movies he likes.
this is a spectrum moment
So what CVH does all the time really?
He straight up is throwing a sissy fit because marcus didn't read the star wars books 😂 this is the gayest video I've ever seen
@therealtroybarnes Yeah lots of youtubers do that. DEAL WITH IT!
Ohhh but I love Cosmonaut....
exactly. He always contradicts himself and hasn't read ANY of the books like he says. If you're going to do another analyzing evil episode or debunking episode, you should do it on Schaffrillas Productions. This guy loves the clone was but hates the prequels and makes himself look like he loves the sequels more than the prequels and constantly uses clone wars to justify everything that didn't need to be justified and is a simp for Dave Filoni.
Do you earn enough money for Cosmonaut to value your opinion?
He should put down the Crystal Pepsi and use his brain.
I remember seeing his videos on the last of us part 2 and the last jedi. I thought how the fuck could anyone have these opinions. I feel validated with this video
I'm pretty sure disliking a few movies doesn't make you an evil person but okay 😂
Cosmonauts Jojo video cemented my opinion about him. He tries to shit on Jojo but he gets so many basic facts wrong. It's like he didn't even try.
You sound like a TASM 1 fan who is seething after watching his video.
Nah, unlike Synthetic Man, this Dude isn't evil.
However, very much like Synthetic Man, he's terrible at his "Job"
So satisfying how the tables have turned now and a lot more people are realizing the prequels are not at all as bad as these circle-jerking haters claimed over the years prior to SW selling to Disney. Prequels are bad because there's politics in them and it makes no sense. Yeah if the politics in the prequels are too hard to understand for you it's probably because you're too stupid considering I was in 2nd grade when me and my friends saw Episode I on VHS and we had no problem understanding what was going on. Clunky dialogue between Anakin and Padme. This one is my favourite since they fail to realize the low-key genius of George when you stop to remember that Anakin was a boy that went from slavery to joining a group that trains you from a young age to inhibit your emotions and Padme who had been thrust from a young age in the midst of the political world. None of them had the luxury of having any romantic experiences until they met again well into their adult years so of course the dialogue is clunky and cringe because that's exactly how two people having their first romantic experience would speak and act.
What are you even saying?? It’s not the politics that people have a problem with it’s everything
It’s bad acting, bad dialogue, bad story, bad effects just everything really
You know the cast of the original movies made fun of George Lucas for decades about his terrible dialogue
And they still make fun of him for it
All the bad dialogue was not planned and certainly no act of genius he’s just not good at writing dialogue
Harrison Ford threatened to tie George Lucas Up and make him read his own words because they were so bad
Alec Guinness didn’t want to do the movie initially because of the dialogue
And majority of the people know that the first Star Wars movie was really saved by the editor and then the second and third movies weren’t even directed by George Lucas but the movies that were are the prequels which are all bad
@@JOVONO Without George Lucas there would have been no movie to have to save in the first place. As for the actors feeling like the dialogue was silly was due to the genre of the movie being SF and having a lot of SF-typical wording. Add to the fact that SF as a genre was not respected all that much at the time the movie had been made. Harrison Ford hated the dialogue? Yeah? So what? I wouldn't put too much credence in the opinion of an actor who openly admitted to hate Han Solo and SW, the very character and franchise he owes his entire career to lol Bad special effects? Compared to today's special effects but compared to 1999? Not at all. And the special effects you enjoy today? Go ahead and thank ILM for its contributions to that. Want to know who founded ILM? Some guy that starts with George and ends with Lucas. Maybe you heard of him. You can hate the prequels all you can but at the very least George Lucas, for every mistake he made, it at least came from a place of love for the art of filmmaking, to push its technology and story-telling to the next level, which is more then you can say for today's hacks like your Jar Jar Abrams or Ryan Johnsons.
@@JOVONO The guy above just gave you an example of people misunderstanding the dialogue and acting they do not like because they do not like the way the character des things as bad, despite being logical and in character. And you proved him right by commenting. Subjective opinion on Anakin conveying emotions does not mean the scene is badly made. It means you do not like Anakin being bad at conveying emotions. It's a serial. You can say "I do not like X", but you can't say "X is bad" based on that.
Bad special effects? They were pioneering. Are black and white movies bad because they lack color? You enjoy Special Effects because of people like George.
You mean like Harrison Ford. Did you bother to pay attention to the entire quote. "I was wrong". The guy admits he was wrong. The guy hates his role and wanted it finished way before.
You bought the "saved in the edit"? It's full of lies and was debunked. Want a doozy? Marica was the one who made the cut that was "panned" by Lucas' friends. Lucas fixed it as Marcia left before the showing for "New York New York". Want to know who debunks your video. The book they tried to quote. You are wrong on all 3 counts for the OT. The director of ep 6 even said that Lucas supervised everything. Proof in the books from multiple people.
@repairinggood Ironically that's exactly what the sequels did as more and more people are now warming up to the prequels and realizing that, while they are not perfect movies, they are far better than what the so-called critics have said about them over the years. If you want an example, just look at Hayden Christensen, the actor that played Anakin in the prequels, and how much shit he got for his acting in it and how much people hated his portrayal of the character, and now years down the line in the DISNEY era of SW, people were excited for his return as Anakin in Obi-Wan and Ashoka. Again say what you will about the prequels, but at least they told a coherent story over 3 movies, showing the fall of Anakin and the Republic and the rise of Vader and the Galactic Empire while adding more emotional weight and satisfaction to Luke's redemption of his father at the end of TRoJ thanks to knowing his tragic life up until that point. I am sure the same cannot be said about the sequel trilogy.
He’s certainly got a face for Radio (thumbnail). Any actual Star Wars fan makes reference to the Thrawn Trilogy - because they know how good the sequels were *SUPPOSED* to be. The OT is the Classic Hero’s Journey. The prequels are the Classic Hero’s Failure.
Can you please do one on red letter media
You're in luck. "Analyzing Evil: Mike Stoklasa From RedLetterMedia" is on my list
I used to be subscribed to CVH until I noticed how nasty he would get when someone disagreed with his takes, especially his bad takes.
Bob Iger next!
Have you ever noticed how salty sharp cheese is?
If you're going after TH-cam critics, I recommend going after Chris Stuckman next, as I do believe now is the time for him to receive a reality check he so rightfully deserves, given all the recent crap he's been involved in (supports sponsoring companies that have shady track records, lying and misrepresenting groups of people in a effort to play the victim to generate sympathy, throwing his own fans under the bus by once again lying and misrepresenting his fanbase's likes and intentions and so on). It's about time that he gets the humbling he deserves since he contributed to the George Lucas prequel hate as a means to further his career.
@@pntr92 Didn't he recently become the laughingstock of reviewers because he refuses to review movies now?
You know there’s no conspiracy about people disliking the prequels
People just don’t like them because they’re not very good
People don’t dislike them because a TH-camr doesn’t like them
@@JOVONO Actually, there was a conspiracy.
People don't like the prequels because they refuse to grow up.
Stop defending
I hate when people say, "you're not a true fan" but cosmo doesn't seem like a true fan of anything.
i unsubscribed the cosmonaut channel a long time ago
this whole video is such a virgin moment😭 “your a filthy casual you haven’t read all the books and played all the games!!!”
Never seen people get so pressed abt someone, it’s not that serious. Just don’t watch his shit 🤷🏽
Starwars and the dung kugar effect
I’ve never seen such a hateful community toward what seems like a pretty pedestrian fan of Marvel and Star Wars.
He's not a pedestrian fan at all, he attacks everyone that doesn't agree with his takes, uses the most smooth brain arguments to defend shit like She Hulk and The Last Jedi, and then literally does everything he condemns people who don't like the slop likes when he goes after shit he doesn't like. Also his review on the prequels are blatantly plagiarized from the RLM reviews, he even makes the exact same points straight up word for word.
He thinks Rebels is a bad show. That’s literally the only thing I can agree with him so far.
J.J. Plagiarisms is the Incel King of Pop Culture TH-cam
Peter griffin is the goku of white people
Being a longtime subscriber of Marcus's to me what sucks is I believe that he does have videos that show a more fan like passion behind what he's talking about for example the X-Men reading guide video, the warhammer guide video, the "What if We Had a GREAT X-Men Game?" and the why you should play fighting games video all highlight a deep love and understanding for what he's talking about but instead of making those videos he puts out slop reviews for whatever recent movie mcu, Star Wars, or dc project that's hot at the time with very surface level takes.
Your video is going in circles a bit. Many arguments are repeated. Other than that, I don't disagree with most of them.
Dude has always acted like he’s older than he is and that he’s consumed more media than he has. Still a great TH-camr lol
God I hate when TH-camrs make shitty hit-pieces like this. I don’t really like his videos either but to add him to your “analyzing evil” videos because his opinions suck is really corny 😂
I will never forgive him for his jojo video and for what he said about the Blade movies
