The copy of Robyn Hood I acquired was in 5.1 format, explaining the left ear issues.
streamlabs.com/IrreveRANT100/tip
I thought I was going insane for a second! 😂 Thank you for the explanation.
I was just about to say your audio was only coming from the left channel. Well at least you know and so now do I. Stay blessed lady.
For 12:50 at least, the young professionals are probably closer to middle-class than poor, it’s just that city prices are a shitshow. But also, probably figured they’d gentrify and raise the property values in the area that he would own/develop.
Please tell me your opinion... Do you think this could work if the concept wasn't about race but about technology and progress vs nature perseverance ? Like Robbin and the group are off the grid and use silent medieval weapons (arrows) and the villains use drones etc. ?
Thank you for getting ahead of this issue and letting us know. I thought my headphones died for a min.
Another “eat the rich” character in the nicest apartment you’ve ever seen. They can’t even pretend they’re downtrodden in media.
Maybe that's why Sheriff Ginger called this block "special": They just believe they are poor but actually they aren't and the real poor people hate them ...
In the nicest apartment the Canadian ghetto has to offer
@@lordmontymord8701Yes, they are very…”special”
I don't even think they know what a downtrodden living even is, lol they think their suburbs living and their Dad not understanding their "change" of being who their really is is being poor and being raised struggling
@@lordmontymord8701that sounds like a way better series funny enough
"It's so diverse. We have all black cast."
Oh yes, very diverse.
It's like how people were saying black panther's cast was so diverse. For those jackasses, diversity just means 'No/less white people'
If you haven't figured out diverse = no whites yet you never will.
Diverse: pro communist no whites.
-2018 definition.
Like clockwork. These people just can't help but expose themselves.
The Jeffersons was more diverse than this, at least not all white characters in that show were evil.
What "black family" in Canada has a mom who keeps a "condom jar" AND encourages her daughter to "re-up" from it? Is this a family Director-X knew?
CPS needs to investigate.
Seen one to many hentais
Probably Drake's family, the only other black Candanavians in my awareness.
This just proves Director X is fatherless
@@marcthomas5949I don't think condoms exist in that genre.
Very brave of Director X to make his main character a thief who comes from a home with a single mother with two baby daddies (neither of which are in the picture).
Edit: Holy shit, wasn’t expecting this response, guys.
Don't forget, she's also promiscuous, AND an aspiring (c)rapper.
All that's missing is for Robyn and her mom and sister to be shown having a fondness for fried chicken, watermelon, and malt liquor.
“Very cool”
Jay Bauman
@Adamguy2003 Or they drink Hennessey, and she has a sassy Madea type black grandma. I'm expecting to see Director X in drag soon.
Lol! There are characters I know with a similar backstory and are more iconic/beloved than Robyn Hood.
@@marywinchester1322honestly with a name like that as a black person she’d be the loser kid that all the other black kids make fun of.
This show has huge CW energy and it isn't even a CW franchise.
They all learned the same narrative in college
I'm not saying it's as good as Batwoman (what show could possibly measure up to that masterpiece) but it's up there xD
How dare you insult the CW.
MF'r I thought it was this whole time hahaha
TRUEEE
If this is set in Canada, you'd think the "ticking clock" conflict would be Robyn trying to get her mom outta the hospital before her doctors can try to shame her into assisted euthanasia.
They're THAT poor and oppressed, they can't even afford to or get permission to die...just like chattel slaves dun dun DUUUUUNNNN!!
For real! Not even a bloody joke 😧
@@alsmith9853 yeah, I heard the stories.
Nothing is ever really Free.
We've really devolved into putting unwanted people down like unadopted animals in shelters, haven't we? 😳 They're getting sent to live on farms with lots of grass to run around in.
Hot dang, that would've been a _way_ better plot point!
Which is why they didn't use it.
Director X just took all the stereotypes he's seen on American TV/News shows and put it in the series. Even down to a "Saintly" deceased Black man with a mural in the neighborhood.
Mulattosis. The guy who is 85% white has to be the most over the top black stereotype for street cred. The man is Maple Syrup Shaun King
Did he die of a massive drug overdose as well ?
@@kwc1138If I'm not mistaken he has a back story in EP3. Guy was a "saintly local hero" who didndu nuffin wrong
This just proves how out of touch Director X actually is. My guess (and this is just an observation as a white woman, so don't judge me) is that he either never lived in the hood or if he did, it's been a long, long time.
Now, I never lived in the hood. We poor white people tend to live in trashy trailers when we're poor. It's how everything feels so inauthentic. More like he's mimicking but doesn't actually know. It's kind of like "millennial dialogue." It's only how people think that clever people talk, but never actually had a conversation with a truly clever person to really know.
Not just that, he also "borrowed" heavily from Watch Dogs 2
“I filled up the condom jar” just feels like such a gross sentence, especially from your mom 😂
🤮
And the director thought that was endearing for some sick reason.
Sounds like my gf's mom
How much does a jar full of condoms cost?
@@I_D_I_0_T a buck 50
I love how the "ghetto" is composed of nicer apartments than anyone I know have EVER lived in.
fucking spot on lmao
Makes you wonder if Director X just doesn't know what apartements of really poor people look like (despite him claiming otherwise) or if he thought we cannot make this neighborhood look bad ...
@@lordmontymord8701 I have more "street cred" than this cat...
...and, I'm a hillbilly
Fucking looks better than a low wage apartment, no a MEDIUM LEVEL APARTMENT IN NEW YORK
@@Quantum1244 Holy shit, right?
NY "medium" is its own thing.
A very expensive thing.
Tv shows/films that the director thinks addresses racism but end up being 100% more racism is my new favorite genre. 😅
The new hit and trending genre of the 2020s
It would be better with some good actors like where did they find them they can't do shit
The fact they made Friar Tuck from a sweet, kind man of God into a high off his gourd hippie who lives in a basement and knows all and sees all....kinda made me physically ill....
It will be cold day in Hell before Hollywood makes a Christian look like anything but a frothing at the mouth zealot.
Why am I not surprised that they turned the Christian character into a hippy, woo-woo, doo-doo new-age weirdo? 🤦🏾♀🥴
@@jothecocopopWho is a magic techno-wizard hacker that uses his fingers instead of a normal keyboard. 🧙♂️✨️🤖
@@hope-cat4894Who evidently is a moonshiner as well.
So he's a stalker that's a hippie? 🤢
I'm not even black and I'm sick and tired of the "absent black father" trope.
It’s such backhanded representation 😂
He was spooked by a condom jar
Eh, it is a trend, sadly.
But they gotta show it though 🤷♂ I mean how else are we going to explain them having zero common sense or ethics? 😂
It is common in real life though. Still. In 2024
You know, we only have the mom's word that Robyn's dad is a 'loser'. He probably has a well-paying job, he just didn't want to live in a place where someone's raising chickens above him, a potential health hazard.
Plot twist: Her father's white. Robyn just has extra strong melanin.
@@Coramelimane wouldn't be surprised
@@CoramelimaneI like my melanin “extra strength” 😂
I'd be leaving anyone once I know they keep a barrel of condoms around
@@Coramelimane That's because the mother is "Pro-Black"🤣🤣
'she can't eat the rich she can't afford the calories' - itsagundam
LOL what video he said that in?
"Lets fix racism by depicting Black people Stealing."
What was this "director X" smoking?
I want Director X to watch this video. His brain will explode. He’s been losing his mind on Twitter lately and I can’t wait to see his reaction to a review of someone he can’t pull the race card against.
He'd just call J a self hating black woman I bet.
@@coriv7135 Or internalized racism or some crap.
@@muigokublack6487That's the usual strategy.
"You're just a Black Huwite Supreme Pizza with all the ist/phobic toppings! You may be skinfolk but not kinfolk", the usual.
It'd be a nice plot twist if it came out he's white. I mean, look at him, are we sure he's actually black?
Man, those "poor" people sure have a lot of expensive eggs to throw at the cops....
You're forgetting food stamps... you know, taxpayers money.
Somebody was raising chickens in the apartment. Those are ghetto eggs. 🥚
@@hope-cat4894 Threw away farm fresh eggs. Thats something most well off americans would be appauled at.
@@hope-cat4894 Farm eggs cost more than store eggs
Ngl that sorta checks out, because the people shown here are DUMB poor people…so they ain’t gonna care about that.
Yeah that checks out! 😂
Director x, created a Tiktok channel exclusively to respond to the "Toxic Criticisms" towards his show, the thing is hilarious, the guy literally degraded himself to a 2nd grader
Can we get a link? Whats it called? lol
Sticks and stones may break our bones
But their idea of your "bigoted attacks" in the form of rational reviews and well-deserved mockery, is the TRUE violence. Dave Chappelle, or whomever named that groundbreaking special as such, was truly prescient about how much worse it would become barely within the space of sleepy Joe's term as the resident Walter puppet unstringed.
@@trevorsmith9628Better off not knowing tbh, he'd accuse people of brigading.
That's what Megan the Stallion's heart sounds like - BAAHHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
This show is unironically about a red headed woman getting revenge for all the other red headed women who have disappeared from pop culture over the course of the great culture wars. But honestly I’m glad to finally see some inclusion for the gingers for once.
Alittle surprised but I'm for that 😂
Cartman would say "See? I told you the gingers are evil!"
ROFL
A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one
Please forgive Hollywood. They really do want to cast more gingers in roles.
Unfortunately, the guy in charge of casting is dyslexic.
The Robin Hood story is one of those things that left an indelible mark on my mind growing up as a young boy. If someone who was really clever tried to do this kind of hip hop aesthetic Robin Hood, I could kind of see it working, but the first problem is that the Hip Hop in the show sucks ass, and secondly even ignoring all the modern day crap this story has none of the gravitas or pathos of Robin Hood. What compares to the moment where King Richard returns and sees all the men who fought for him saying in awe, "All these have remained loyal"?
Seriously these race swaps are horrific. No one deserves to have their culture appropriated by Canadians.
And also the fact this show misses the point of Robin Hood. He didn't take from the rich and give to the poor. He gave back what was unjustly taken from the townspeople. If you made your money fairly and worked for it he had no beef with you. He was also a patriot who fought in the Crusades in some versions and another reason he dislikes Prince John because he sees Richard as the true king of England.
I want to throw out another historical fact of why Robin Hood's thievery was so brilliant. You see when you had to pay taxes to your Noble Lord they had to write you a receipt nowadays. A receipt is just a bill of sale so that you can exchange it for your money back after you pay for goods and services. Some Goods can be returned with the receipt but back in the old olden days. You see when the debt collectors came around to collect your taxes they had to write you a receipt. But these receipts were not only just a piece of paper but had written signature.
By the debt collector and a wax seal of the king Lord or Baron of that area. In debt collectors would actually attend auctions for contract from these Noble Lords and even the king. To collect the taxes but you actually did pay your taxes on time.
Even though they were outrageous and crazy it's proof that you did pay your taxes and due to the king. Or the Lord of that area but here's the thing you get some guy like Robin Hood who robs the tax collectors and the corrupt Nobles. And he gives that money back to the people you probably think it was stopping them from just you know taking that money back. Well the receipt you see if you had this receipt proof that you paid your taxes you didn't have to pay again until next year. or ever how long it takes for your debt collector to come and collect your taxes.
So legally if these corrupt Nobles wanted to just take their money again they can actually take them to court and they had proof and the King's seal which means if they tried it that. Means that you're calling the question and calling the king a thief.
Robin Hood 2018 has more so called "swagger" than this show.
Like Robin of Locksley returning from the War to find all his lands and assents seized by a false ruler, prince John, who has also been harassing everyone else in the area, raking them through the coals for their hard earned money;
Imagine it starting with Robin Hood, a successful rapper, finishing their jail sentence after the IRS went after them for Tax Evasion (because FUCK taxes) and now Robin's got a bone to pick and a chip on their shoulder, reclaiming their space and reawakening the fire in their family/friends/fans now that they're back.
Could be phenominally _stupid_ or _really well done_
Exactly, a Robin Hood figure in modern public housing reclaiming taxes/resources for those who are unfairly taxed/represented could be interesting.
This was total trash!
Me and my brother were joking about Disney making a live action movie with pretty much the same plot like a year ago, we’re reaching self-parody levels I didn’t know were possible 😂😂😂
im eager to see if my predictions about "The Sword in The Stone" will come true
I can't wait to see their live action remake of 'The Great Mouse Detective'.
I can't wait to see their live action remake of the Aristocats.
I'm waiting for lil red rydin in da hood
@@Baldwin-iv445staring kevin hart lol
The cops getting called in to stop them from filming at a construction site reminds me of that girl who tried to film a flash mob music video at a Target store. She tried to call it racism, but you aren't supposed to film a music video at a store without permission. Are we supposed to think the cops were racist here too? 🤦🏽♀️
The scene that happens on every no budget inde movie.
Any member of the crew: Cops.
The director: We don’t have permits. RUN!
Obviously, they have always used racist as a browbeat club.
Well that depends on her skin color - if she's black Director Triple X would definitly say YES!
Hire a poc to lead the show? check

Self-awareness? ....oh damn, I knew we forgot something! 😂
My left ear enjoyed this
Bro I have my left earphone broken :(
It’s only playing in my left ear. Weird.
Bruh my left ear bud wouldn't connect over Bluetooth and I was SO confused
Left supremacy strikes again
To be fair thank god we have to witness this show in only one ear
Not only is the mom cool enough to HAVE a condom jar,
and not only is she cool enough to refill it,
but she's also cool enough to understand what sloots her kids are- to the point where the condom JAR needs regular refilling.
What empowerment.
Didnt watch the show but if your a teen in a relationship you often use 1-3 condoms a day. Is there smth wrong with that?
@@Dystopie173 it depends especially when the person's mother takes joy in refilling it
@@Dystopie173I think teens obsess over sex to much to the point they think sex = relationship. Many are just broken and will later regret their actions
@@Dystopie173nope. FUCKIN WEIRD when your MOTHER is giving you high fives for it though!
@@Dystopie173a day seems a bit much.
I really don't get why the cops are presented at the beginning like we should hate them... for reacting to a noise complaint in a construction site...
Construction sites are dangerous dummies, reason why people who work in a construction site wear hard hats. It's not for fashion and on top of that Robbyn and her crew were trespassing XD
Tell me how is it bad that the cops are doing their job??
Johnny Somali didn't get that message..
@@logicplagueWell the good news is that the shit stain will now spend 3 years in prison. Remember Japan has a 99% conviction rate
@logicplague2077 he got the message. Just too dumb to think through
I'm like 6 minutes into this video and I am already SO over this law enforcement portrayal. 💀I've counted at least five things wrong already.
I agree this whole craps terrible, just for fun, how about mentioning some of those things? I can just tell it's wrong, but I'm not really knowledgeable enough about law enforcement to really pick out specific details
@@DanielAlves-xe4om The whole show would have ended 10 minutes in when they simply got a warrant and searched every apartment, because the idiots lead them right there then assaulted the police, and destroyed "2 people's yearly salary" worth of government property.
Only five things?
@@TheArmyOfOne100 Well that was only about a minute into the actual show itself LOL
@@DanielAlves-xe4om Okay, so keep in mind that there may be some regional/country differences, but I'm judging based on how things were done in my county when I was a 911 Dispatcher. And this is only the first minute of the show I'm looking at here.
Okay, so first off, cops and deputies aren't the same thing. His car says Sheriff Department, so makes him a deputy. (Deputies deal with county calls outside city limits. Cops do in city limit, though they do help each other out if needed.) So any time one of those guys are called cops, that's wrong. If the deputies are doing calls in the city, that's also wrong.
"This is Sergeant Redcap responding to a noise complaint Monarch Construction." All of this is wrong.
1. He's using using his name and rank on the radio. Deputies and cops both use their badge numbers, and the other field officers and dispatch will know who they are and what rank.
2. Deputies and cops don't just get calls and show up and radio in where they are after they're there. lol DISPATCH takes calls and gives them to field officers. All he should be radioing in is that he's "on scene". If you need to give extra disposition for the audience, the MOST he should be saying is "*badge-number* on scene for that noise complain at Monarch Construction."
3. Dude instigates physical contact, antagonizes, and pulls a weapon when he has no backup, and then chases after multiple people ON A NOISE COMPLAINT.
98% of noise complaint calls are just
Dispatch: "Can I get you to this location for a noise complain?"
Deputy: "*sigh* 10-04"
Deputy: "On scene."
Deputy to people there: "Hey we got a noise complaint call, can you guys turn it down a bit?"
People: "Yeah, sure, sorry!"
Deputy: "No problem, have a good night!"
Not deputy is going to try and instigate crap on a noise complaint. They just want to move on to another call.
Damn for a group of characters that's supposed to be depicted as being poor they certainly lived pretty good lives. A community center that apparently teaches martial arts and getting to go to a proper summer camp to learn a bunch of other shit. Honestly the idea of a modern day Robin Hood isn't a bad one, but this definitely ain't it. I feel like it'd be better to have this take place in the south. Have Robin be some hillbilly who's living off the land with his family in some small, rural town. Instead of the bad guy being generic evil rich man or generic corporation, have the main villain be the mayor and focus on the fact that they're trying to sell off the towns to some lefties who want to forcibly change the town. Could have an interesting dialog about how not all change is bad and how even if things do change you should remember your roots. Instead we get Robyn which says nothing of value and fails to tell a story that's been told hundreds of times already.
Plus I thought no one was poor in Canada, being such a progressive country and all 🤔
Ironically enough in today's modern day its the lefties who seem to be the rich with how they can all afford to go to college, get the latest phones and clothes without having a job.
I would definitely watch this version of Robin hood you came up
I was watching this defense lawyer's channel and one of the things he said was not to do things that turn your misdomeaner into a felony. Fighting the cops and running away over a trasspassing and noise complaint is hard to feel any sympathy for the main characters.
also somebody in those buildings clearly called the cops. or did the call for a noise complain come out of nowhere? where the heck were they when the police showed up? probabl being quiet in fear of retaliation from their gangsters neighbours
@@2st486 I guess we're not supposed to think about things like that. They're cops! They're just permanently hovering like vultures around that neighbourhood, ready to swoop down and peck out someone's eyes without reason or warning. Obviously they have nothing else to do in such a well-run city.
"Woah, slow down Director X! I can only handle so many positive depictions of black people at a time!"
Director X? He is not going to come out of this spotless. He has shown the world that his way of defending his show is publicly wetting himself.
Huge missed opportunity not casting Lil’ Jon as Little John.
Bruh
Whaaott!
Would have been the only good thing about this dumpster fire
“Haven’t seen you in a while”
“OOHKAEY!”
Who has a condom jar? Did he grow up with one? Did his mom come up with that idea?
Reminds me of the free clinic we went to as kids, because we were super poor.
They had a condom bowl on the counter for the peasants
The mom with two baby daddies didn't grow up with one 😂
I wonder if Director X will try to hit up Jlong for an "interview." like he did to AZ.
He won't. And we know why.
Does director X want women like Jlong to "see themselves" in Robyn "Condom Jar" Hood? 😂
He did talk to Mr H reviews for near 2 hours.
Kind of appropriate post-Batwoman, it’s time for Robyn. Can’t wait to watch J rip this a new one.
I am praying that this gets 100+ episodes so yootoob can roast it for years.

Deal with it
"oh god it's jack REALLY black" - oh my fucking god i laughed so hard... i love you so much xD This show has legit made me laugh more than any CW trash. I can watch that "shooting" scene endlessly and it still makes me laugh with how stupid it is!
See, this is what truly annoys me. The showrunner claims that it's an all black cast even though the show wasn't written as such, just so happens that all the good guys ended up black and all the bad guys ended up white, _yadda yadda yadda._
Dude. Be honest about this. It's lame, cowardly and blatantly disingenuous. You can't have your cake and eat it too.
if you want to make an all black retelling of Robin Hood in modern times go for it. Hell, if you're doing that, make it a parody of Blaxploitation movies while you're at it. Make it cheesy or campy and it might even turn out better.
But this wishywashy bullshit about this show not being written with an entirely black cast of main characters is just silly.
When she said "Felicia from Friday" I lost it. This woman is funny as hell. I hope you do the whole show!
Ngl, I thought the exact same thing, but hoping she dies so she can play Cube saying "Bye Felicia" 🤣🤣
Granted, there was once a project that housed a tiger, but chicken droppings have an atrocious odor. Who could bring themselves to raise chickens indoors?
Director X has somehow made a show and put every black negative stereotype in it
Robyn’s mom having two different baby daddies? Check
Absentee father figures? Check
Robyn being promiscuous? Check
Wanting to be a rapper? Check
Resorting to crime instead of getting a job? Check
It’s honestly impressive how racist this show comes across
It’s really impressive that he’s reducing his directing of an art towards real stereotypes, considering that he made great music videos in the past. Seriously director X. Justin Lutz. You need to get past this childish mentality of reacting towards criticism. This art you call it would smear the past music video works you done. Don’t let it twist your legacy. You’re better than this.
But he can't be racist, because it's impossible for black people to be racist😂
I watched most of the show and all I could think was "Who wrote this?" This is a show about black people written by someone who's in the Klan.
Ten minutes in and we seem to be leaning fairly heavily on "tell, don't show". She's got her "feed the people, eat the rich" placard. So presumably we're meant to sympathise with these downtrodden people. And that's great. Robin Hood is basically about the downtrodden people fighting back against the corrupt landowners, aristocrats and royalty. Except what we *see* in this scene is a nice bright cheerful kitchen, they're tucking into chicken fresh from chickens that their neighbours *raised*, not extruded factory-farm chicken-related by-product. True, they live in a council flat in a tower block and from the outside the tower looks convincingly bleak, but the interior and the chicken breakfast do not suggest to me "downtrodden".
You know, there's this notion that everyone whos farming is some sort of a moron or crazy or whatever. And it's always from the big city folk, worked like this for years now, and it's pretty much present worldwide. I'm living in a pretty rural area - not some backwards village or shit, no, an outskirts of a rather small town. I have a barn with hay, and adjacent to it are places where I raise chickens and bunnies. Not for commercial purposes, no, just for my own benefit. I also have a small patch of land where I grow bunch of produce - corn, potatoes, cucumbers, tomatoes, pumpkins - you name it. To top it all off, there are also trees around that give apples, plums, and also bushes with raspberries. And I can tell you right fucking now that none of it is retard-proof. Never will be. This shit requires effort, precision, and the track of time. It's hard work, but as a wise hospital director once said - nothing worth having in this world comes easy. And it's far from downtrodden - if you can raise animals and crops, it means you got land where you can raise them. And you know what? I prefer it this way. There's something satisfying about things going according to plan. That and... All that stuff kind of tastes better when natural, but I can't tell if it's just aforementioned satisfaction being a secret ingedient or if they really are pumping that many chemicals into market stuff...
That being said... I will concede on saying that raising chicken in the apartment block is just pure stupidity. Health hazard aside, chickens just need open fields, grass and ground. Especiall sand, they adore sand - they cover themselves in the sand because it cleans them off of various parasites that tend to show up in the feathers. It does wonders for them. That and uh... I know how much those little fuckers shit. And I know how much it stinks. The idea of living in an apartment with chickens in it is... It's just disgusting.
@@bliczb8772Seriously, chickens produce obscene amounts of crap and it stinks like a kitten wet from its own diarrhea. Couldn't imagine raising them in an apartment block.
On this & other videos criticizing the series, I've seen Canadians apologizing for this show as if they feel they have to which is probably the most Canadian response ever.
I don't see Americans apologising for all the crap coming out of Hollywood for the past decade.
@akashajones6079 I didn't make Hollywood do that! Fuck your "sorry"! Most American response ever. No, wait, where's my gun..?
@@akashajones6079
We Americans don't apologize for anything!
Including getting Canadians addicted to Kraft Dinner.

@akashajones6079 because we compensate with some of the best films ever made: casablanca, citizen kane, last of the mohicans, etc. It's all a balancing act--crap and gold. Otherwise it's not fun.

At least with these dumpster fires, we can always count on a good JLongbone roasting. So its always a win for us.
9:24 I don't know why this almost broke me, but all I know is I'm struggling not to burst out laughing at work.
"Why'd you get fired?"
I was laughing too hard at a JLongbone review.
"Understandable."
That quick popup with her giggling and Turing to the camera and saying "they're black".
Everything about this moment killed me.
It always humors me what Hollywood thinks a low-income environment looks like.
Seriously, their ‘ghetto’ looks better than Trump tower.
This is Canadian, so technically not Hollywood.
@@akashajones6079 Ahhh, potato potato.
Bro blended all the worst stereotypes into one show... To apparently empower black people.
That scene from the bad version of Old Boy (9:29) always bothered me. It's just ridiculous to the point of unbelievability. Now don't get me wrong, I'm under no impression that high schoolers would be charitable and supportive of a girl in an elicit love affair with her dad, but I find it much more believable that they'd be huddled away from her whispering things like, "ew, I can't believe she screws her dad" instead of following her around chanting "whore." that sounds more like what they'd do to the girl who blew six football players at the party last weekend.
Of course, in this context, that scene is perfect. This trashfire show makes that movie look like Schindler's List by comparison.
to be honest (and I talk by experience) high schoolers are absolutely cruel when they bully someone, even if it is someone who comes from a bad experience that they hardly move on from
Ahhh…here we go 💪 Oh, as a Canadian…I am so fucking sorry for this. Damn, this shit does not paint us in a good light 😂
Now you know why Canada is often called "America Jr."

As someone named Robyn, I hate how I now have to share my name with this travesty of a remake, “modern twist” on such a beloved classic story. 🤦♀️
I felt the exact same way when my name was brought up in that shitty Karen movie that came out a few years ago. 😢
"You were in the military? Why are you acting all twitchy?"
Well, if he's seen a) how military marriages and relationships often end, and b) been forced to watch lectures about how to talk to women and minorities...
Also, I think the Sheriff's actor is legitimately doing a good job of being sinister, overbearing, and cold. Especially with the material she's been given.
The problem is her; she's not particularly intimidating.
she's the Alice of this series
Tbf, it's the _Canadian_ military. 😉
HE went to military in Walmart 😂😂😂
what I thought it was american. canadians dont wear that uniform@@AnimaVox_
We’re making it out Sherwood with this one!
Good thing too since the place is a mini-California.
"All these actors were the right ones for the job."
I have so much damn respect for people of color who put their own reputation on the line to call out the main stream for the bs race-baiting and gas lighting… Director X (lol) is over here gas lighting us critics as racist when in reality he just can’t accept his show is maybe garbage?
Thank you for all you do ❤
Also love how the cop can't be a guy doing his job, Has to be a violent prick that starts swinging as hard as he can when he was blinded, Honestly shocked they didn't have him open fire
How can the villain still be a billonaire? How can the cops be a threat? I mean they both get deafeated with ease like nothing.
You know how it goes. They have be enough of a threat to justify the plot but also be non-threatening enough to excuse the bad writing.
I look forward to the eventual video by Media Zealot. Villains Too Stupid To Win: Robyn Hood edition.
Spoilers ahead

That seems probable, seeing as how they're willing to shoot people for, basically nothing and yet instantly claims a criminal escaped because, while still in close line of sight, the criminal was driving away from parked cop cars, in a small shipping truck. Like the cops can't out run it easily
@@followeroftheprince: I mean, the box truck drove past a frickin' Dodge Charger police cruiser, a vehicle that can easily outrun the truck. 🤦♂️
@@viscountrainbows2857 The question is: Who will he pick as the villain? Mr. Prince and Sheriff Ginger? Or the thieves (and later even kidnappers) of Sherwood?
Maybe enough stuff for 2 videos ...
He lied at the start when he claimed all the blk actors just happened to be the best to show up, he straight ripped off the famous given explanation as to why the blk guy was chosen for the first of Romero's 'of the living dead' movies.
Omar Little from The Wire is basically a Robin Hood in the hood, and he was so much better than what they're doing here.
The bad guy needs to call New York to have Brother Mouzone handle this mess.
Yes. The Wire baby. Rip to Michael K Williams aka Omar Little actor
Oh my god J, I love you.
This is hilarious.
“Cinnamon flavored Felicia.”😂🤣😂 Robyn’s acting is the worst. This whole show is beyond cringe I think “director” x.. Julien should stick to music videos.🤣😂
I'm so excited that you gave this a watch. Seeing you and Az rip this apart reminds me of the Batwhamen days.
One of the things I will never forget during the discourse surrounding the show before it aired, is that one of the supporters of this show actually said that Sherwood Forest isn't real just because it's most known for being the setting of the Robin Hood legend. The guy probably has internet, he doesn't need to spend time looking at a map, yet he couldn't be bothered to look it up.
How on earth can people be this ignorant and brainless? I hope they get called out, because…man. Guess the people living near that area don’t exist now!
Even if Sherwood Forest were fictional, that is still such a nonpoint in whatever argument they thought they were making. It'd be like saying "New York City can't be real; Daredevil, Punisher, John Wick, and Spider-Man live there so obviously it's fake by virtue of being featured in a work of fiction."
I really want to pick the brains of people like this. I'd probably fry my own neurons as a result, though.
@@viscountrainbows2857 IIRC, it started when someone said that, as a resident in Sherwood (probably meant the district in Nottingham City, rather than the Forest itself), he takes offense to this show for butchering his country's folklore, especially since it's set in his specific county. So the "Sherwood Forest isn't real" guy clapped back as a means to invalidate the other guy, while looking like an idiot in the process.
People who already know everything about everything don't need to look anything up lol.
My left ear loved this
Jay giving us love in one ear at a time.
So Robin Hood stole the taxes and gave them back to the people. They steal and keep it for themselves. How is this like Robin Hood aside from names?
Mind-blowing eh
That condom jar thing still blows my mind.
Hood classic
This show straight up feels like a Boondocks bit.
They're so poor and mistreated by thems system, yet they have more expensive phones and gadgets than I have working full time job.
"We 'gon be like robin' hood. 'Cept we gon' be robin' in da hood"
I love watching this show on the 86" tv in my car while I blast rap music at maximum volume and fire guns wantonly at other minority individuals. I have a 40 in each cupholder and a bucket of fried chicken on the dash, as well as 800 pairs of stolen Nikes in the back seat
Sounds like an average Tuesday in da hood lol
What brand is the chicken I want a bite.
@@Baldwin-iv445 popeyes
But how many active Warrants?
Couldn't the police just call a swat team to deal with the egg throwers? I like to imagine the cops know they'd be deemed racist if they went in to arrest the black people assaulting them.
"They were the best actors for the job"
So apparently no one wanted the job if these were the best that showed up
As a Canadian myself, I am so ashamed that we have THIS shit airing on Global. We deserve better. If you want a better Robin Hood adaptation, just watch the Disney one.
Your country celebrates hittlerr, so you asked for this socialist cringe.
>looks at Canada
Are you sure you deserve better?
@@The_Ballo yeah we do
Why do you ask?
@@The_BalloI'm guessing you're American.
@@akashajones6079 I'm not claiming we deserve better, either.
Elementary was an American modern adaptation of the Sherlock Holmes story. And at least they tried to make it feel like Sherlock Holmes as a New Yorker. At best.
15:37 yet another scene that makes me think of Robin Hood: Men In Tights…….which I’d rather watch. It’s funny how a comedy movie from 1993 (which is officially 30 years old this year), is far more faithful to the story of Robin Hood, than a tv show from 2023. Plus, you normally can’t go wrong with Cary Elwes.
This review was 100x more entertaining than the actual show. Well done!
It took me a minute to figure out what was bugging me about the writing in this show (not the being shit part, that's pretty obvious). Then it hit me: Director X has never read the actual story of Robin Hood, he's cribbing everything of the animated Disney adaptation. A lot of very bizarre choices all kind of fell into place once that clicked for me.
That awful Mural was a george floyd refrence, after seeing this show I think I was too hard on Gotham Knights.
What killed me was the massive condom jar; did it need to be that big🤣
I love how all these corporate trash shows always love to put "eat the rich" into their movies and shows as if their show wasn't funded by the rich lmao
Holy shit that fucking edited caption at the Star of David necklace joke had me dying, and I’m so glad your channel is growing, I remember when I subbed years ago thinking you should have so many more subs cause your editing is on point and your humor is one of a kind
Lmao your laugh is contagious. Please do all the episodes.
If it’s one thing I’ve learned from woke cultists, it’s that no conservative has ever been as racists as liberals are every day of their lives.
Truly; Liberals can literally be caught with their pants down and MSNBCNNBCBS will field like "Hey man we all make mistakes".
A Conservative accidentally coughs without covering with their elbow and suddenly they're tantamount to spreading anthrax.
THESE libs for sure anyway 😂
Malcolm X said it himself. The liberal is the greatest enemy of the black man. He’s still right to this day. White liberals are the greatest cancer to black people.
@@harrambou9468 I don't know. I've never met a liberal that didn't think about race more than any conservative I've met. It's a big deal to them, even the more moderate ones. I blame public schools.
@@bmardineyto be fair, there is a difference between thinking about racial injustice often, and whatever the hell THIS is.
Ain't no take down like a Jlongbone take down, cause a Jlongbone take down don't stop.
Director X (Julian Christian Lutz) comes from Brampton Ontario an affluent suburb of Toronto and the WHITEST place in Canada. He needs to stop acting like he comes from the 'hood'. You are not from the 'hood' Director X and the stereotyping in your show CLEARLY exemplifies this. I know this because I am from Toronto.
I could barely make it through someone reviewing this show before. Even Batwoman is more entertaining than this bland mess. You losing your sanity over this is the only thing keeping me from going braindead watching these clips.
So far, the funniest reaction I've seen to this trash show. Editing on-point, as usual. 👌
Not sure if anyone else has pointed this out, but Robyn also seems to be using a toy/prop bow. She doesn't seem to be struggling at all with the draw weight, since she's keeping the arrow nocked and drawn without issue. I assure you, even a 15-20 lb bow can become strenuous to an inexperienced archer, let alone a bow with a higher pound draw weight-I'm talking 40-50, which is around the average for women. You're not actually supposed to be keeping it drawn all the time, you *will* be getting tired, guaranteed (and I'm pretty sure it's bad for your muscles). You only do a full draw when you're ready to shoot; basically, you draw, aim, and shoot in one fluid motion, if you have any sort of skill. Her arms and back should also be ripped if she's a good archer with a proper bow, not all noodly-like Jessica Biel in Blade: Trinity; but this is a problem with Hollywood's portrayal of archery in general, save for specific stories that rely on it more, like Hunger Games.
I'm waiting on the Leprechaun in the Hood clip. 😂
Wait…I just noticed something! Are they really matching the animal mask designs they wear to their counterparts in the old Disney cartoon?! Robyn/Robin being a fox, Little John being a bear, etc.! Seriously, now?! Ugh.🤨🙄
The only somewhat clever thing the show did
I fully lost it when the mom was shot and they played the CHURCH music… 😂
Time of Joke October 1st 🤣
Also did they seriously make Fryer tuck some conspiracy theorist obsessed with a plain of existence he probably made up while high as a kite? Do they just not like Christianity?
"Subdermal implants"?!
MF'er do you know how much that would HURT to get those in your FINGERS?!
Condom Jar was refilled... So who's giving the service? All three or one of the three?
Replacing a Vowel with a Y is the female version putting an X in the name because it sounds cool. DarkwolfX
this, but also here to appreciate your PFP character of choice 🏆
If I (one of those eeeeeeeeeeeeevil right-wing men indelibly stained by the original sin of being born white) had made this show, I'd be called racist, and rightfully so.
So why is Director X getting a pass?
"Oh no, we've been bested by eggs! Damn you, Eggland's Best!" 🤣
I really did think at first they brought over some of the writers from Gotham Knights for this but nope. Just gave that same vibe. Guess that is the new style.
Jlong though come on great review love your videos and then you just had to sneak in that Canadian hate at the end . That hurt not needed my friend we still love ya up North
I haven't laughed this hard since batwoman. We got a winner here boys.
