Old man makes movie, young people don't give a shit, comedy is dead because of woke
Old groomer
Lol the thing you call WOKE has existed longer then you realize. What is happening now is people in power are brain washing people for THEIR AGENDA but they are to much of a sheep to see it.
I heard someone calling the human rights conventions woke. Not in a good way. It was not surprising but it was a thing if it's own.
He knows the youth… he did date a high schooler when he was like 40……
And maybe if Jerry wasn’t a hypocrite, I would have sympathy for him. Literally Jerry is the one who said he doesn’t like swearing in his presence and doesn’t like it in comedy. I’m sorry, but if that’s your complaint, you lose the right to get in a tizzy about “wokeness”. And frankly, I’m getting sick of comedians complaining about that. Because I can’t help but notice the ones who complain about it The loudest aren’t even funny. I mean look at Jerry’s coast star in that movie, Amy Schumer. How does she even have a career? Literally every movie she does sucks out loud. It’s like her whole routine is just be vulgar as possible and then call it comedy.
I say this: Seinfeld complains about woke destroying comedy, meanwhile his pal Larry David just finished arguably one the most un-PC, brutally awkward and brilliantly hilarious shows of all time.
It's almost like Seinfeld's success was heavily dependent on Larry David's talent
@@m0L3ify That's a bingo!
I watched that film in full. Jerry Seinfeld owes me my NetFlix subscription.
😂
“Oh hello……Jerry.”
How was it?
Blame yourself
bwahahahahaha they made a joke about little John-John who has a mental handicap, so edgy !!!!!!! JK lame.
Jerry Seinfeld: "My comedy is too edgy for all the woke snowflakes of today!"
Also Jerry Seinfeld: "Imma make a movie about Poptarts!"
@@katejackson4142 r/thatsthejoke
@@katejackson4142 yes, that is the joke
@@katejackson4142Sounds like you have never eaten a stale poptart without any milk.
"With a bunch of shots at controversial figures of the woke left like Jack LaLane and Walter Cronkite!"
It's like he tried to make the most Boomer comedy to ever Boom.
This is the comedy of someone who doesn’t want to pick a side or someone who doesn’t want the world to know what side he’s on Jerry you’re worth over $100 million we know who side you’re on
What’s more “washed up Conservative entertainer” than staring in a project that’s just a thinly veiled commercial
Sadly we had two ‘success’ movies with Air and Flamin’ Hot.
Producers NOW perceive there being money in making movies about cultural products.
@@Bmanritchie Not being able to learn our lesson after Battleship almost disproves the theory of human evolution
@@purewhiteloverbizarrejelly I'd say the real patient zero for brand biopics is "The Social Network."
That could describe Baby Reindeer ,too! Lol
And that didn't even have the approval of the Kellogg Company!
What’s the deal with billionaires?
You’d think ONE of them has so much TIME and RESOURCES, that ONE day, they’d wanna wake up and say…
I wanna play Batman!
@@Bmanritchiethey’re doing it, only they’re targeting the poors
They are typically sociopaths or psychopaths incapable of empathy.
@@SixOneNiner23 LOL
@@joca2903 Joe Rogan actually talks about hunting the homeless in one of shows, I bet Kid Rock would be all in on that and Trump would probably sanction it.
So that's where we are. Movies about brands. Late stage capitalism is so pathetic.
Movie studios have been making movies EXCLUSIVELY about brands for a looooooong time.
I actually think the transition from trying to create brands via affection to trying to exploit supposed affection for brands, starts with Toy Story.
I'd argue both Lego movies were actually really good
Maybe. I haven't been a regular movie watcher since the early 2010s. My point about late stage capitalism still stands. It's so uninteresting.
It's about how two companies go against each other almost causing a war and has kids so addicted to refined sugar they steal it from dumpsters. It's a left wing movie but you won't watch it because of half baked theories and petty grudges against the guy that made it. The climax of the movie is decided by marketing.
Seinfeld would be nothing without Larry David.
He is just as bad.
Christ all you people do is complain.
Not since the other three guys from CCR tried to continue without John Fogerty has it been more clear who had all the talent in the group.
@Sloimer proceeds to complain
@@burgermind802one complaint is well below my criticism of “all you people do” dummy. Lol.
Poor Jerry, I mean he’d never get away with picking up his 17 yr old girlfriend from high school when he was 38 these days. People are so sensitive anymore.
Jerry Seinfeld complaining about ‘wokeness killing comedy’ then doing an unfunny two hour commercial for Pop Tarts gives the same vibes as Idris Elba talking about third world exploitation then immediately after doing a widely publicized fluff piece for the gold industry, which is entirely built on third world exploitation.
Also, the Barbie movie being about more than Barbie was a godsend to that film. What is this or any other product movie about? Just the product. That’s the difference.
But we did get a fun Dan Olson documentary out of it, regarding the gold industry.
Jerry Seinfeld and Amy _"death of comedy"_ Schumer?
That is too much not funny for one movie.
Yeah. I'm pretty disappointed to see Melissa McCarthy in this.
@@danbridges4755 Or Andy Daly. Guy is more funny than most of the cast combined.
@@danbridges4755 Same.
i couldn't get passed 3 mins
Comedy is done. Here's my hour long pop tarts commercial 😄
Seinfeld's argument against the "pc left" is based on the premise that he is *objectively* funny.
He's not even subjectively funny
@@futurestoryteller I can't tell if that was intentionally lame or not. Replying with "I hardly know her!" would have been funnier, and that's a low bar.
Nope.
Well I'm sure he finds HIMSELF funny.
bwahahahaha the quaker oatmeal guy was dressed like a real life quaker!!!! LOLOLOL so funny JK lame.
"People like ads right?"
"Yeah? I mean, CEOs are a form of people right? And we LOVE ads."
"What if we made an advert."
"We already make the-"
"Ah-ah-ah let me finish. What if we made an advert, that's 1 and half hours long?"
"Ooooh I li-"
"LET ME FINISH! An advert that's 1 and half hours long, AND devoid of any comedy despite being written by and staring a whole bunch of comedians and, inexplicably, Hugh Grant?"
"I love it! It sounds terrible! Film it immediately!"
I wouldn't be surprised if Seinfeld refused a majority of the script feedback by others on the film. Including the other comedians.
I also wouldn't be surprised if those other comedians were in the movie due to contracts or favors.
Because that's A LOT of comedians otherwise. And the movie is not funny enough to have so many good comedians in it, and contributing.
So how much did they ACTUALLY contribute to the jokes, and how much were they repeating the jokes Seinfeld wrote?
"Perpetually unfunny 'comedian' yells at cloud"
Now watch some random progressives yell at that exact comedian
@@morgannyan2738now watch some random rightoids yell at people calling for the comedian to take PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY for telling jokes that aren't funny, then getting mad that people didn't find it funny.
@@brandonrathbone3690 thank you for proving my point 😂
@@morgannyan2738Proving your point by... let's see here... *not* doing the thing you said they would do? 🤡💩
Jerry: "I'm gonna make the opposite of the Barbie movie"
Well, yeah. I'm sure it'll make no money and not be funny.
It's funnier than the Barbie movie.
@@redrick8900 then you either didn't watch the Barbie movie, or are lying.
Which is it, kid?
@@redrick8900 I didn't like the Barbie movie for being an absolute mess in terms of execution and the way it handled its themes, but I'll admit it had genuinely funny moments, especially anything Beach Ken did or said.
This poptarts film is about as funny and charismatic as the Nothing from The Neverending Story and it's a hot contender for one of the worst movies I've ever seen. It's poorly written, and it looks so cheap and soulless from a filmmaking point of view. Anyone liking it lying to support Jerry over politics.
Or is someone who NEVER saw a movie in their entire lives and had awful taste.
@@brandonrathbone3690 It's funnier than the Barbie movie.
@@DeepEye1994 Barbie had it's moments. Unfrosted was wall to wall funny and brilliant social commentary. Congrats on not being as smart as me.
This reminds me of a Daily Wire trailer.
You have been thoroughly brainwashed. This looks like any other trailer of any other movie. And since when is Seinfeld and Melissa McCarthy on the same level as the daily wire?? Delusional
The eye bleach burns like all get out but comparatively it's a salve to the daily wire content 😵
He has the most bland stand-up sets I've ever seen. Why's he complaining about woke?
Because convincing himself that he's being cancelled because everyone's so woke is less of a blow to his ego than admitting that his "comedy" is bland and unfunny.
Because he's irrelevant and desperate for the spotlight again.
Rage bait is what he's doing to get the spotlight.
That's the trend, that's what gets views in our society today, that's why you see so many folks engaged in rage farming for attention.
@@sandpiperr *(Insert Principal Skinner meme)*
@@ToxicAudri A lot of these washed-up conservative comedians seem to be trying to use "anti-wokeness" as both an excuse and self-promotion to compensate their mediocrity. Like Lady Ballers did.
He's probably broke, somehow.
Who is Jerry Seinfeld? The name sounds familiar, wasn't he on that show Jason Alexander had?😅😂
He had an unmemorable supporting role as the bland "straight man" in a Larry David penned hit series.
From a "show about nothing" to a movie about a sugar coated chunk of jam-filled cardboard.
Calling it jam filled cardboard sounds more appealing then whatever the hell they are actually made of.
I filled me ma's soggy cardboard box full of jam this morning after the Taco Bell run.
@@ToxicAudrino it doesn’t…did Seinfeld write this joke
seinfeld continues his unblemished record of never being funny.
@@alananderson9072 Clearly there is no accounting for taste.
He's so f***ing arrogant.
Amy Schumer??? No way it's even remotely funny.
Between Schumer and Seinfeld, this movie has a really high Zionist percentage. Why would young people support a vehicle that financially supports two genocidal maniacs?
Depends on where she stole the jokes from.
@@MrStillionsare there any Palestinian comedians to steal from?
Amy Schumer? She was my favourite part of no movie that’s ever existed.
When it comes to conservatives in the arts, it's always "work/sinecure". I'm sure Amy Schumer could use the work, so we get a movie about poptarts.
There are plenty of modern comedians that are hilarious and never bully/punch down. skill issue.
Seriously, if you can't be funny without punching down or bullying some minority group, you were never funny in the first place, you just exploited the normalization of mistreating folks.
Jerry will never be George Carlin.
I don't care where they punch, at least make it funny.
@@twonumber22 That's what punching up does, it's something we in the masses can relate to and find comedic, George Carlin perfected this punching up by attacking the wealthy 1% and career politician's.
We can all relate to our general distain for these folks and have a laugh at their expense because they aren't hurting in the slightest.
Unless you find things like anti-Semitism funny, you already admit that punching down isn't so funny.
@@ToxicAudri To me the difference is that punching up is just satire around how people are treated in society that is common yet dated or dumb, versus punching down is just trying to make prejudice sound deserved for people who treated poorly. Conservatives don't understand this, just by the nature of their beliefs. Its why most up-punching comedies tend to make fun of conservative ignorance.
@@ToxicAudri George Carlin made fun of literally everyone. He didn't just "punch up". Have a sense of humor and don't think you can tell people what to do.
Reminder Jerry Seinfeld dated a 17 year old when he was 38
Once again "An Evening with Tim Heidecker" sweeps
I RECOGNIZED THIS AND I CLAPPED
What's he doing these days? (kinda curious)
@@warlockpaladin2261 Weekly podcast with DJ Dougpound I think. He got really skinny too. I miss fat Tim.
Has he blamed the failure of this turkey on liberals yet?
50’s and billionaire capitalism isn’t funny. I’m not funny and I know that.
Does capitalism live that rent free in your head?
@@morgannyan2738 do liberals really live that rent free in your head?
Only a genius mind that was involved with the Bee movie could come up a poptart movie.
Seinfeld the show was funny because of Larry David and an amazingly talented supporting cast, Seinfeld the comedian was never funny.
Even the show at times makes fun of him not being funny to the characters themselves.
Agree. I need found him funny when he delivered in Seinfeld episodes.
They why were all those people laughing?
Laugh track
You know Jerry wrote the dialogue for the majority of the show right? Like he literally wrote it. With pen and paper. Larry came up with the scenarios and Jerry wrote the dialogue
A guy with infinite money feels a need to make a product marketing movie for more money.
Another important aspect of comedy is knowing when to exit the stage. Super key.
seinfeld helping young comedians made me snort. he doesn't seem the kind of guy who helps anyone. not because he's evil but because it inconveniences him.
I think you're all missing the point of the extended metaphor used by Seinfeld's brand of comedy. Like a Poptart, nothing good can ever come from consuming it. And it kills you slowly from the inside-out. That's the kind of genius he is.
Are you saying nothing good comes from Seinfeld, cause I agree .👍
I like to think Jerry snapped after watching his friend’s career end after throwing out hard R’s on stage
In the US? No they are both doing better then you and I…
@@stehfreejesseah7893 😔
@@stehfreejesseah7893 When you've already made it, failing from there still means your doing better than the rest of us. The gap is huge, and it will take a long time before Jerry is just another shmuck.
It had the same overly aggressive "Hey look at us were being really funny!" tone as so many commercials use. Dial it down Jerry, way down.
“Is this a joke?” Should be the tagline. Can’t wait for Seinfeld to start making movies for Shapiro.
Jerry should have just disappeared forever after Seinfeld
And to think -- we didn't even know how funny Julia Louise Dreyfus was without Seinfeld. Did you ever see Veep? I know Jerry Seinfeld hasn't, because he hasn't had a fatal heart attack.
Well he just made one of the all time best comedies.
@@redrick8900 Did you know it was piloted once, rejected, rebranded and piloted again? I forget what its original name was.
I wonder what was wrong with the first audience who didn't think it was funny. Must have been the woke left.
He kind of did disappear after Seinfeld. Didn't he have that "Drinking coffee with comedians who have the ability to be funny off the cuff" thing? Bad idea, because Jerry Seinfeld can't improvise. Which is why I can't remember who the host was -- he basically played the straight man.
@@jessejordache1869 Yeah. He only got two presidents on it. What an obscure loser.
"he basically played the straight man."
That's the hardest job in comedy and that's common knowledge.
Comedically, Seinfeld rode Larry David's coattails for the best comedic premises of Seinfeld. Comedians in cars getting coffee, same thing. Seinfeld immerses himself in the comedic genius of others and apparently, gets full credit for it.
Yup. Seinfeld is just another nepo baby who got everything handed to them and thinks they are a "genius" and "did it all on their own".
I always skipped his standup bits in Seinfeld the show.
That trailer is bafflingly atrocious. How can he be so clueless?
@@ToxicAudri Guy got to the top of one of the toughest fields to advance in.
Ya, it's like all you need to do is create, co-write and star in a tv series named after you and ppl give you credit...
Right wingers try not to be the least self-aware, least funny group in society challenge (difficulty level: impossible)
Who was the last actually funny conservative comedian? Does Norm MacDonald count?
@@erikgilson1687 I think Norm definitely counts and I'd put him at the top of the pile personally.
Yeah, he never put too much focus on it, but Norm was obviously a devoted christian and a conservative. And yes, he was one of the funniest people alive. A brilliant comedian. I personally also really liked the vaudevillesque nature of Barry Humphries' comedy, mostly his satirical character Dame Edna Everage. That character was created in the 50s but was at the peak of its popularity in the 80s, 90s and 00s. Humphries was a conservative in real-life.
There is no funny conservative currently.
Jerry is right wing now?
@@paulg6274 He might have just latched onto the idea that PC culture is why people don't find him funny, when it's really just because he isn't funny.
Between this and the Bee Movie, Jerry has some incredibly niche interests, I suppose.
Movie looks as bland as Kellogg meant his cereal to be.
So a little less bland than Seinfeld's comedy then?
This movie, too, will keep me from ever touching myself again as Kellogg intended
@@mtwall5933 I know, right? Lol
Jerry Seinfeld sucks and the fact that that he thinks he's "edgy" is beyond laughable.
@Rayscigarlounge :: Maybe "edgy" that was the punchline ?
What’s the deal with weird right wing “comedy”?
This isn't even right-wing. It's just bland corporate dreck.
Er, I mean- Who AAARRE these people?!
Conservatives don't understand art.
That's why the most well known right winger in history was a failed artist.
Lol right wing? There's literally a scene in the movie making fun of Jan 6th. Half the actors are sworn enemies of the right
Progressives get really really mad at it
I put the movie on and turned it off as soon as I saw Amy Schumer.
The pop-tart looks good in a silk robe 👘🙌
Jerry is just trying to make people forget he was just over in the west bank dressed in IDF drag shopping for fresly "liberated" real estate. that's what kind of guy he is and always has been. 😉
Or that his wife was astroturfing the Zionist counter protestors.
Yes, Jerry, the left is ruining comedy. It was SO MUCH BETTER when your racist buddy was up on stage having a racist tantrum. 🙄
Agreed that Seinfeld is an antiquated grumpy old man with bad opinions, but what you just said is the height of bad faith argumentation. Bad form- be better.
@@porkcracklins630Huh? Who made you Chief School Marm ? 🤓

@@jocksharerock7318 Yes, if I had an IQ in the negatives I'd enjoy it too I'm sure.
@@jocksharerock7318Oh I'm sure they did, little buddy
Insufferable cast? Look at the list of actors, like everyone is in this movie. Im actually not sure there have ever been so many big name comedians in one movie
@@Saturnia2014 yeah, they did. They actually work for a living, live life, and don’t live in leftist bubbles. They’re not conditioned to believe a useless commentary on a TV movie trailer. Unbelievable
Why the fuck are they so obsessed with remaking food fight??!?
Because very few are willing to take risks with investing into a movie unless it has a premise that already did very well. That's why we get so many reboots. Its a safer bet.
@@ToxicAudri did food fight, the visually barf-like star studded feature, do well?
@@tokenninjasp Never said it was a smart move, but it's viewed as less risky.
Ghostbusters was remade, the original did very well and was well received, the remake flopped, it wasn't that good, and it wasn't because of the actors, it was the writing.
But because it was a ghostbusters remake it was viewed as safe, people liked ghostbusters it was seemingly a safe investment that held a lot of potential for making lots of money from movie sales to toy merchandizing.
@@ToxicAudri I get that the people in charge lack the ability to understand the context of why Ghostbusters was successful, because they correlate the name of the "product" with profits and nothing else.
Again though, food fight was a star studded shit show. Personally I feel like this and the crap the ghoul running hboamx into the ground Aggressively highlight just how shallow and stunted the scope and imagination these profit driven addicts have.
Because seriously, when we think about the purpose of this movie, a movie designed to mythologize commodities, who is the audience?
When I made my initial comment, I had the article "Socialization and the Power of Advertising" by Jean Kilbourne and "The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness, and Healing in a Toxic Culture" by Gabor and Daniel Maté in mind (some neat reads, would recommend along with "The power of swearing: What we know and what we don’t" by Karyn Stapleton, Kristy Beers Fägersten, Richard Stephens, and Catherine Loveday).
A period comedy about the Kelloggs brothers, Post, and all the other late 19th century snake oil salesmen who got in on the cereal craze seems like it would have been much more fruitful for both entertainment and social commentary.
The founding of Kellogs is pretty funny but I'm sure that won't make it into the movie since it wouldn't go over well with their sponsors! 🙂
Skip over the best part to get to Pop Tarts.
They already made that movie back in the 90s. It's called 'The Road to Wellville'. It starred Anthony Hopkins, Mathew Broderick, John Cusak, Bridgette Fonda, and Dana Carvey.
Wasn't there like fictional book about him that was turned into a movie a while back. Anthony Hopkins played him and it was more about his health center and his colon cleansing believes.
I'm never gonna watch this film. Unless someone lets me use their password.
Pfft, a movie about Poptarts?
That's not even worth pirating!
@@sandpiperr It's a really long commercial. **skip**
How about a free public showing of a pirated version?
I might if i got all of jerrys money as hazard pay
@@sandpiperr Not what the movie is about.
You can't say that us far-leftists are trying to end comedy when Alex Jones and Donald Trump have been genuinely making us laugh for years and we wish for them to continue to do so.
Seinfeld is really trying to be relivant.
relevant, unless he's actually undead ...
@@thehellyousayI think you mean “revenant”
@@montecristo1845 i know what a revenant is. i wrote relevant as a correction, since i'm fairly certain alley-dw2fl (what was his mother thinking when she let daddy do the naming?) meant relevant, but i couldn't help but consider the possiblity that 'relivant' was a joke about the state of seinfeld's career, never mind his soul (the man IS pro-genocide, like shumer is).
throw in a broad streak of grammar-nazism about illiteracy, mis-spellings, and entirely wrong words (loose? LOSE, DAMMIT!), and you now know more than you wanted to know.
ps: kudos for knowing about revenants, though. it's a word that is disappearing from the lexicon.
Toaster Strudels are better in every way.
Don't let a shitty comedian Rubin your appreciation for the best snack in the world.
Definitely.
They always burn my tongue when the hot jelly squirts out of it on the first bite.
Seinfeld makes all his money from selling repeats of his show. Maybe it was in the Netflix deal that he had to make crap for them.
Htf did Bill Burr end up in this shitshow 😂😂😂😂
Jerry probably begged and pleaded.
Bill Burr as JFK is such a perfect idea, and he was wasted on this slop.
Nothing better than some rich guy completely removed from reality complaining about modern comedy and then releasing what is almost unanimously considered the worst and least funny comedy film of the past decade+

I watched it last night and the word “woke” didn’t cross my mind once, yet my understanding of “ant-woke” is that it’s cover for people who either want to behave anti-socially, or have inadvertently behaved anti-socially, got called out for it, and chose to double-down rather than apologize. Weird.
I think it's coming from a boomer/early gen x perspective where they had to struggle for a society that doesn't ostracize those that are "different", but some of them somehow completely lost the plot and started putting principles above logic.
@@KomradeKrusher Interesting hypothesis, although perhaps those boomers/early gen x’ers recognize the sacrifices their parents made were not for nothing. What’s that saying about repeating history as a consequence of not knowing, or taking it seriously?
“Since the fascist route to power has always passed through cooperation with conservative elites, at least in the cases so far known, the strength of a fascist movement in itself is only one of the determining variables in the achievement (or not) of power, though it is surely a vital one. Fascists did have numbers and muscle to offer to conservatives caught in crisis in Italy and Germany, as we have seen. Equally important, however, was the conservative elites’ willingness to work with fascism; a reciprocal flexibility on the fascist leaders’ part; and the urgency of the crisis “that induced them to cooperate with each other.”
Excerpt From
The Anatomy of Fascism
Robert O. Paxton
“Fascists often cursed faceless cities and materialist secularism, and exalted an agrarian utopia free from the rootlessness, conflict, and immorality of urban life. Yet fascist leaders adored their fast cars and planes, and spread their message “by dazzlingly up-to-date techniques of propaganda and stagecraft. Once in power, they forced the industrial pace in order to rearm. Thus it becomes difficult to posit the essence of fascism solely in either antimodernist reaction or in modernizing dictatorship.”
The Anatomy of Fascism
Robert O. Paxton
“Fascism’s ideological underpinnings became central again in the “final stages”, as the accompaniment and guide of wartime radicalization. As the fascist hard core acquired independence from their conservative allies at the battlefront or in occupied enemy territory, their racial hatreds and their contempt for liberal or humanist values reasserted themselves in the killing fields of Libya, Ethiopia, Poland, and the Soviet Union.”
The Anatomy of Fascism
Robert O. Paxton
“The strategy of the Germans and their French police cohort was stealthy, predictable, and almost successful. Until mid-1942, when anti-Jewish operations became more violent and the rumors of a Nazi Final Solution had finally reached Paris, most well meaning and generous Parisians were aware in general of the laws restricting the lives of their Jewish co-habitants, but had convinced themselves that the government was only trying to control immigration and terrorism.”
Ronald C. Rosbottom, When Paris Went Dark: The City of Light Under German Occupation, 1940-1944
“We want to burn out all the recent immoral developments in literature, in the theater, and in the press - in short, we want to burn out the poison of immorality which has entered into our whole life and culture as a result of liberal excess during the past ... (few) years.”
- Adolf Hitler, quoted in: The Speeches of Adolf Hitler, 1922-1939, Vol. 1 (London, Oxford University Press, 1942), pg. 871-872
“A state that once again rules in God's name can count not only on our applause but also on enthusiastic and active cooperation from the church. With joy and thanks we see how this new state rejects blasphemy, attacks immorality, promotes discipline and order with a firm hand, demands awe before God, works to keep marriage sacred and our youth spiritually instructed, brings honor back to fathers of families, ensures that love of people and fatherland is no longer mocked, but burns in a thousand hearts. ...We can only plead with our fellow worshipers to do as they can to help these new productive forces in our land reach a complete and unimpeded victory.
- Easter Sunday Blessing from Protestant Pastors in Bavaria, April 16, 1933
“It is the press, above all, which wages a positively fanatical and slanderous struggle, tearing down everything which can be regarded as a support of national independence, cultural elevation, and the economic independence of the nation.”
Adolf Hitler
“The organization of our press has truly been a success. Our law concerning the press is such that divergence of opinion between members of the government are no longer an occasion for public exhibitions, which are not the newspapers’ business. We’ve eliminated that conception of political freedom which holds that everybody has the right to say whatever comes into his head.”
Adolph Hitler
“They [Fascists] enforced with the utmost violence and thoroughness their threats against socialism. Street fights over turf with young communists were among their most powerful propaganda images. Once in power, fascist regimes banned strikes, dissolved independent labor unions, lowered wage earners’ purchasing power, and showered money on armaments industries, to the immense satisfaction of employers.”
Excerpt From
The Anatomy of Fascism
Robert O. Paxton
My feelings as a Christian points me to my Lord and Savior as a fighter. It points me to the man who once in loneliness, surrounded by a few followers, recognized these Jews for what they were and summoned men to fight against them and who, God's truth! was greatest not as a sufferer but as a fighter. In boundless love as a Christian and as a man I read through the passage which tells us how the Lord at last rose in His might and seized the scourge to drive out of the Temple the brood of vipers and adders. ...Today, after two thousand years, with deepest emotion I recognize more profoundly than ever before the fact that it was for this that He had to shed his blood upon the Cross. ...
-- Adolf Hitler, speech on April 12, 1922
"Today, after two thousand years, with deepest emotion I recognize more profoundly than ever before the fact that it was for this that He had to shed His blood upon the Cross. As a Christian I have no duty to allow myself to be cheated, but I have the duty to be a fighter for truth and justice... And if there is anything which could demonstrate that we are acting rightly it is the distress that daily grows. For as a Christian I have also a duty to my own people."

Jerry Seinfeld - That guy nobody would have noticed if he wasn't born.
Chef Boyardee was the only US Citizen ever awarded the Order of Lenin; the highest ranking civilian honor in the USSR.
…wait hold up what???
Clearly you didnt grow up in the 90's lol
@@ronburd4362 That shitty base guitar is the background music in the lowest sewer in hell; it was a defining sound for television, and later syndication, I get acid reflux just thinking about it.
Hate the guy if you want, he deserves it but saying nobody would notice if he wasn't born is full pants on head dumb. Seinfeld was one of the most popular and influential TV shows of all time.

Chef Boyardee was awarded for his service to the Soviet Union; providing war rations to the Army of Workers and Peasants during their hour of need, he was never allowed to travel to claim his medal due to the Cold War. I found this out actually in a comment section on a video about his life, where a family member of his commented on how his being awarded by the Soviet Union is always left out of every biography of him and it bothers the family; the canned food of his on the shelves now is actually the war rations he made during that time, and most likely shipped to the Soviet Union in solidarity.
Is putting "Rebel, Rebel" under that trailer supposed to be ironic? Because to me it just spits in the face of David Bowie and what the song expresses. But maybe Seinfeld really thinks that the invention of Pop-Tarts was somehow an act of rebellion. Wouldn't even be his weirdest take.
And the movie takes place before the song was released it’s all such soulless greed
Do men just go insane when their equipment stops working or what
Absolutely. Look at how many serial killers began because they were impotent. 🤔
You'd think in the age if Viagra and Cialis we'd see an easing if that were the case, but, if anything, it's getting worse!
"just asking for a bear I know..."
@@Noooiiiissseee Ummm, who were some of the impotent serial killers?
@@utterlyviolet Some especially violent ones like Richard Chase and Andrei Chikatilo are the ones I can think of off the top of my head. I'm not super good with serial killers names, I've just listened to lots of podcasts about them and it seems to be a common theme.
Seinfeld says comedians are held back these days, yet Chappelle and Bill Burr still thrive. Yeah ok buddy....
You picked two of the most influential and wealthy commedians in the business and people are still trying desperately to cancel Chapelle. Up and coming comedians aren't going to have the same ability to speak freely.
@@TheJimicus well then that's the point he should have made. He didn't though, so my own point stands
@@TheJimicuskinda BS when you consider Shane Gillis started comedy in the last 10 years and now he has the most successful patreon
@TheJimicus if by speak freely means can't be a bigot without consequences then good, they weren't funny to begin with.
@@mrgotitfordalow Dave Chapelle isn't funny? lol, ok. That tells me all I need to know about your taste in comedy. Maybe Hannah Gadsby is more your speed.
This the guy who dated a 16 year old while in his 30's right? GO away boomer.
He's better than you, bigot.
I watched this movie over the weekend. It was the silliest unfunny movie I’ve ever seen. It’s not edgy at all.
I should clarify: I don’t mean silly in a good way
It can go over the heads of the historically ignorant and unobservant.
@@redrick8900not at all. It's just not funny
Sounds like a film about nothing. Way to stay RIGHT in that wheelhouse.
A movie about Pop Tarts? Hard pass.
Is he really fighting "the woke", or did he just drop those interviews before the movie's press run so he could get reactionaries to defend it
I think he was using it for marketing, like what a lot of conservative comedians do now. They think it will get people to watch it, and it can be a scapegoat if it flops.
I'm so glad we finally got Gay French King: The Movie. Can't want for all the edgy, triggering observational riffs on Pop-Tarts
Jerry Seinfeld and dr. Phil talking about woke. 2 years after everyone else has moved on
We went from mostly no advertising in movies, to advertising on billboards behind the actors and product placements, to entire movies that's just advertising products. This is art commodified in capitalism.
I really doubt that was any motive in this movie. I mean it did make me want to eat a pop tart by the end haha, but that was not the intent. The movie mocks the sugary crap that these products are on several occasions. Jerry has been openly obsessed with cereal forever--it's always been part of his schtick. And it's as much about the 1960s as cereal itself, with many pop culture references.
@@paulg6274so you're saying he's out of touch and assumed everyone else would be entranced by his obsessions as well.
@@brandonrathbone3690 lol what? Man you're actively looking for reasons to knock him cause he said one thing you disagree with. I didnt agree with him either but you're the kind of person he's talking about. Incapable of rational dialogue, just spewing steam out of your ears
I was never a Seinfeld fan, never thought he was funny.
It was always overrated, only funny bits involved George. Jerry was maybe the least funny part of the show. It was all just banal comedy about nothing. Same for his comedy. He had no message, nothing truly interesting to say. Always Sunny is built on the same premise but is steeped in social commentary.
Do you like it’s always sunny?
Me too. He's always been a smarmy piece of shit.
His show was funny imo but this movie is not.
@@SuzakuX why does comedy need a message? 🙄 It was rated as the best sitcom ever, so it's hard to be "underrated". But you think ppl use lingo from the show 30 yrs later is a coincidence?
“Could it be that I’m not funny anymore?
Nah, it’s the lefties ruining comedy”
What is it with pop tarts? They’re square. They’re filled with sugar……. Why are you not laughing?
Bill Burr! @3:18
Look at that acting range! Now, he’s playing an angry jerk with hair! 😄
Jerry has been kinda annoying of late. But I’ll likely still check this one out :)
Its actually not bad. There are 4-5 laugh out louds anyways, although the plot is a little unorganized. Tons of great actors
@@paulg6274that's a terrible amount of comedy for a comedy. Especially with so many comedians in the movie
It's speaks volumes that the writing is so terrible, none of those comedians could make it funny.
Just another ageing comic struggling with the fact that younger people don’t find him relevant or his material funny, so he attacks them and claims they are destroying comedy. Actually, you are destroying comedy, by putting out this cringey mess of a movie. Do better!
Genocide Jerry: "So whats the deal about these protestors?"
This is what Lady Ballers wanted to be, and it sucked too
To anyone claiming that Jerry is an unfunny loser who can't get a gig without bringing up Seinfeld, watch how totally funny he is when he says "Xanthan" with the "Newman" line delivery from... oh, never mind.
That really stuck out to me, too... how embarrassing
It's pretty funny.
@@MaddyMadMads They put it in the *trailer.*
@@redrick8900 then why is the movie so not funny?
Me, after seeing the movie: "I totally believe in dragons now"
(Mr Show reference)
This also has real "Coupon the Movie" vibes too.
Maybe Jerry recently watched The Road to Wellville and thought, "I know how to make that less funny."
Bad comedy movies are the worst type of movies. Awful movies of other genres can at least be laughed at but here you can't even enjoy that.
Well this is one of the most funny movies of the past decade. It's a great send up of the dangers of commercialism.
they really got the worst comedians in this movie. like the friends of adam sandler tier.
And just as overtly corporate-sponsored as well!
who are these pop-tarts?
with movies like this it's no wonder aliens haven't visited us, they took one look at the trailer and went "Yeah, humanity's not worth it. we're outta here!"
omg enough of the corporate biopics
Not what this is. Also, work on your phrasing Mitt Romney.
@@redrick8900 correct. What this is, is Seinfeld getting upset that his jokes aren't funny anymore, and screaming about wokeness. Which is what he will blame this movies failure on.
Pop tarts are and always have been disgusting. Sugar filled junk food. No self respecting parent would feed these to their kids.
Frosted Flakes!
Toaster Strudel killed Pop Tarts and for good reason!
That's kind of what the movie is about tbh.
Don't like them, don't eat them. Trashing every parent that ever gave their kid sugar is pretty absurd and ignorant.
@@therealjeff8086 Oh don't expect them to give the movie a chance. Thinking about things isn't part of their agenda.
TOO MANY FUNNY COMEDIANS FOR IT TO BE THIS UNFUNNY
There are definitely 4-5 very funny scenes. The movie overall is a little disjointed but it will make you laugh
@@paulg6274 then why is the trailer so not funny? And why are the jokes not funny?
You just like it because Seinfeld said something you agree with recently. And because you also hate taking personal responsibility
@@brandonrathbone3690 its a trailer, it didn't show any "jokes" it showed the premise of the movie and the actors. I hate taking responsibility? 😂What are you even talking about? 🤪
Woke comedy is funny. All the anti woke stuff isnt. Jerry just prioritizes funny over the woke message.
This sounds like a random conversation between Jerry, George, and Kramer talking about breakfast before Elaine walks in and calls them out on their stupidity. But a whole movie length version of that conversation.
And this guy wonders why people don’t find him funny?
……………
Sounds like it's going to be Hasbro's Battleship, and Jem And The Holograms nighmares all over again.
Unfrosted should be called covered in cheese
Semi-related, the Flamin' Hot Cheetos biopic on Hulu looks more charming and grounded than whatever this POS is.
Feel bad for Bill Burr being attached to this...
