And then they just move on as if it wasn't one of the absolute fucking funniest bit everr
Nick is both smart enough to understand sub text in films yet stubborn enough to deny their existence just to argue with Stavros. Wild
I mean he's right, their is zero subtext about having dysphoria, they became trans and then just said their most famous movie is about what they are.
@@zachburskey8868 yeah, in that specific instance he’s probably right, (although to say that it flat out doesnt have christ allegory is just a dumb take) but to out and out act as if movies are only always about whatever is being presented on the surface is just a stupid thing to say
@@TheDamnWinner Yeah I agree it's purely a Jesus allegory, you can even here it in Nick's voice he knew he was wrong about that part.
He doesn't understand the difference between literal meaning and subtext. They would probably find a Kubrick movie dull. Anyone who can't see past the first few layers would.

Best part of this is Adam desperately trying to let Nick and Stav know that he knows what the allegory of the cave is and them completely ignoring him
damn he's smart & super gay huh
Nick gets proven wrong. Adam gets ignored and called gay. Nick wins. Stav eats a chicken wing.
Hilarious
but it isn't at all about plato's cave. nick wins.
It would also make it an allegory for an allegory which in his defense is gay.
"the sins of the dance party in Zion" is an underrated line from Adam.

Stav's first thought when hearing about spray on skin grafts is "Can you spray an asshole shut?"
A beautiful bald mind
Stav has a beautiful head of hair
@@nakedfatmantalking9222 yeah, on his ass
I mean doesn't it take a long time for the skin graft to take? You'd have to bypass the anus for 4-6 weeks to restore an anal hymen. Otherwise spraying stem cells on your asshole just seems like a nice way to experience anal fissures every time you take a shit.
@@zachb8012 Just use a colonoscopy bag lol
I found play-doh in a cave once and i ate it, it was an allegory for me going to the hospital
Hell yeah dude
I too like to think it was clay that man made me eat.
@CinemaOffal Productions the play-doh was allegory for a pozzed load
No
i ate a lot of play-doh growing up and it never sent me to the hospital

Are you arguing with or against Nick? That's kind of the Wachowski things just forcing it.

The matrix is essentially about what happens when two carpenters come up with a unique idea make a movie then get into the L.A. BDSM scene and get really into sissyfication.
It's about two plumbers that go to a magical kingdom to save a princess.
Damn, this is too much buzzwords for my coked up brain
the only real answer
My god, the matrix is the cave... lol I can’t believe Adam is right for once... aaaaand nick doubles down on nihilism. Lmfao
I feel embarrassed that it took listening to Cum Town to realise this myself.
In a way Nick is still right, the matrix isn’t about “the cave” either, sure influenced by it but it is a whole separate thing.
@@scratguy4510nope same thing
My man came out of the gates strong talking about “The Matrix isn’t about anything”
It's just about a computer system
Nick is arguing something less like "death of the author" and more like "genocide of the author and also everyone else" lol
That’s when the movie is no longer about the plot and you can only watch it to admire the technical aspects, like the CGI, cinematography and soundtrack
When the movie came out, the Wachowskis were very open about it being a metaphor for Simulacra and Simulation by Jean Baudrillard. You can see the book on the shelf in one scene. It claims that society at large is no different than a simulation filled with copies without originals.
They literally changed the meaning of the movies after their transition.
If anything, its "Suicide of the Author" as they themselves killed the author
It's not death of the author when the metaphor wasn't even intended at the time. Also forget metaphors and themes, movies are kore fun when you can just enjoy them for being cool.

Total citation: *$6,740* and that's letting you off easy
i love how all of this stems from someone asking one of the chowsk siblings at a panel “is the red pill a metaphor for estrogen” and them saying “i mean that wasn’t what we were thinking when we made them but yeah i can see how uve came to that conclusion”
Which is a perfectly reasonable response.
I mean that's some of the beauty in art. People can have different interpretations of a story or visual piece that can give different perspectives on the art itself or the new topic they're connecting it to.
I'm not saying that every interpretation is a good one, because certainly there are a lot of weak connections people make.
@@newthrash1221 Because saying "its about being trans" is an absolute dumbshit way of wording it. But the premise was always about using a pill to become who you really are. "Waking up". Those themes weren't accidental. They might not have been intentionally making a trans movie, but they were making a movie about not being your true self, and how to get there. Which later we can see why they might have been interested in exploring those themes.
@@ERoBB1 that feels like a reach. it's more like take the blue pill and be ignorant but happy or take the red pill and fully expand your mind and "wakeup"
@@PalacEvphoria Uh huh, and what does "wake up" mean? Morpheus uses fairly literal language about "becoming who you actually are". Clearly they were writing about themes of not feeling like their true selves and what if someone could show you how to find yourself (with a literal pill). It's not a reach at all. Feels like a lot of people here have never encountered a metaphor. I assure you, they get vaguer and more complex than this one.

@@mutestingray Something satisfying that after 3 months not a single person interacted with any of your many insufferable comments on this video. Made me smile. Don't reply unless you're insecure🖕
it’s amazing how much Nick knows about the movie yet doesn’t understand it, meanwhile Stav defends it like he understands it but doesn’t know the basic plot points of any of the movies.
absolutely incredible.
I think Nick understands it well enough. Adam too (allegory of the cave).
He's just against this forced narrativization of art, even when done by the original creators 20 years later. Part of the reason it was so popular is because it meant so many things to so many people. Creators coming out and saying "screw your perspective, here's the only true one" is just slapping the audience in the face. It is a valid one for them and many others, but it is just one of the many.
My thoughts too.
@@Avengerie Yeah that's why I liked how the Wachowski's just encouraged people to look at their movies through a trans lens and left it at that. I don't think even they could argue the movies are spefically about being trans
@@Avengerie they never said it was just one perspective even when talking about the trans angle, Matrix takes from many things which they acknowledge still.
@@arturobandini4078 narrativisation is a real world. Like narrativised...you tried so hard with that one too.

The first Matrix was about shedding societal delusions and awaking to reality, the second and third movies were about money, and the fourth movie was about social "justice". This podcast is about christ.
This podcast is about being gay
This is a pretty good format, actually. A recording of a podcast like Cumtown playing on a radio in a GTA game is expected. You could edit together more driving clips like this, but add in a change, where each video ends with the car crashing and the podcast ending abruptly.
if you have it on pc you can just put the mp3s in a folder for the custom radio channel

Me coming back everyday to hear the 'If you cannot shit, Mr. Anderson' bit
watching this i like to imagine im an uber driver and im driving 3 drunk gay guys home and this is the conversation they are having in my car.
7:20 Adam mumbling a protest that Nick confused one set of jewish sibling film makers with another is a mood i carry with me in my daily life, wanting to point out factual errors people are making but realizing speaking up will just get you called gay.
You sound gay
You carry strong bug vibes my dude
Instead of leaving an obligatory anti-Semitic comment I'll just say that the war between machines and man was started by people, the machines tried to be cool. It's shown in the Animatrix.
Yeah neo sacrificed himself for humanity's sins like jesus
Fuck machines, they are just programed to think they deserve to exist

@meowington meowsworth if youre trans gay does that mean your straight?
Who is forcing you to watch literally any movie? If you only like the first, just watch the first one. It's a pussy move to keep pumping money into and watching these big corporations' dumb movies because it's a 'sequel' or it's 'canon' or whatever the fuck. Make your own decisions.

@@accuserofthebrethren9240 he actually just called me up and said I was his true best friend and that you guys are actually gay
Gotta agree with Nick. You can’t retcon a story to fit later assumed narratives. The same thing happened with J.K. Rowling and Harry Potter. She retconned the sexuality of several key characters that had no indication of being other than what they already were, to please sjw fans. Just because the bros became sisters, doesn’t mean the matrix is now about trans people. Fake, and gay.
And having paused this a few minutes in to comment, I now hear Nick point this exact situation out with Harry Potter. Very gay.
Google JK Rowling nazi uniform. Pretty cool huh?
Difference is that with Harry Potter she was changing an entire characters story and characteristics. With this, the Wachowskis are just saying that the movie can be read through a trans lens. Looking at the difference between how you perceive yourself inside and in reality, as well as the use of pills to reach your true body, a lot of stuff can be read as a trans allegory. That doesn’t mean Neo and Morpheus are all trans, it just means that the story and the trans experience share some elements.
@@ArielHal9000 I refuse to accept a retconned theory, posited 20 years after the series concluded. Even if the people retconning the series are the creators of the series.
@@robertswitzer990 its not retconning, its a different way to interpret the meaning of the movie. Or whatever its about Neoliberalism
@@robertswitzer990 you're literally deciding to be thick about it because you don't want to change your view? It's not a retcon. There are many good examples that support the trans allegory, including Switch's original intent.
Nick's idea that movies are nothing more than their literal text and can have no allegory is such an idiotic take that i thought it was a bit lol
these guys have the best laughs, delivery and jokes. 10/10 would recommend
Stav had it right. The Matrix is just reverse Terminator
When Adam corrected Nick with “The Wachowskis”. That’s allyship.
Nonono, these boys didn’t catch it but a major revelation in in the trilogy was that the machines intentionally let humans live in Zion because they weren’t able to successfully run a persistent matrix.
Hell yeah, that fucking rocks, dude

u jumped at the chance to write a comment about that after he said it like once maybe twice
11:42 "can you stop spitting on my lips while you're talking" SO GOLD
The first Matrix is literally an allegory for dealing with the feds and people who will report you to them. Nick is insightful, but his contrarianism is just too strong when it comes to dealing with the most obvious shit lol
drug addict
From my understanding, the directors only belatedly said The Matrix was about being trans AFTER they themselves recently transitioned. At the time it was made, it certainly wasn't about being trans and they never claimed that it was. So effectively, it is NOT a movie about being trans. The directors belatedly reframing a movie to suit their own contemporary beliefs or agendas is equally as worthless as any regular viewer doing so.
Clearly someone on this podcast took that to a dear heart
@@ciupenhauer - Sorry, what?
@@LHyoutube was talking about Nick
@@ciupenhauer - Gotcha 👍
I recall learning the original plan for the character of Switch before either Wachowski had transitioned, so I believe there was some element of transgenderism within the original story, but I think it's absolutely insane for them to say the ENTIRE movie/series is about being trans. The making of the movie was very well documented and it's quite clearly/blatantly about man's dependence on and taking for granted of technology and natural resources, respectively.
Also that computers and anime are cool. The Wachowskis love them some PCs and japan cartoons.
The thumbnail is so great
Stav's laugh makes me laugh so hardbc I know he's making that crazy funny face with his funny teeth and stache.
The bearded one makes all the jokes but without the laugh he’s nothing.
Hi, I'm not a gay actor but people say I look like Tom Hanks in that movie Philadelphia.

I am so glad someone has referenced Ralph Bakshi's "Wizards". The ending of that movie is so batshit retarded and comes out of fucking nowhere that I love it.
I love how no matter how stav feels about anything he can be bullied into abandoning said views if put under pressure

stav was confused until nicks cookie analogy
The people that made it sold their souls, that's why their saying its about trans. It's an allegory for christ, but the reason they made it is to stop people from discovering the allegory as an actual truth
The bible itself is an allegory also so it's double layering for the purpose of confusion
I like men
Respect
It'd be a hell of a coincidence that a story some trans people stole also happened to be about being trans 20 years later through some tenuous connections
I like how the funniest thing i probably ever heard on the show and stav is somehow not obnoxiously laughing at it. I lost it at the hidden figures matrix impression
