Which film do you prefer the most of the trilogy. You all know my opinion at this point I think. For me, one of these is incredibly strong, and the other feels like a generic pastiche. I am very excited for Maxxxine coming soon.
2024-06-19 18:22:47 +0000 UTC View PostJuly is definitely not looking anything like July 2023 was for movies. But as I've said before...Barbenheimer never felt like a solution to a huge problem in Hollywood. It was more a temporary band-aid. What films are you looking forward to this month?
2024-06-16 17:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostWhen I was 14 I saw the movie TAXI, starring Jimmy Fallon and Queen Latifah. Call it a guilty pleasure, if you will. Sadly, I know the film inside and out. Initially I thought it was a remake of TAXI DRIVER, which I had never seen at the time. So I went into TAXI DRIVER a couple years later thinking I was going to get a silly cop movie lol. What movie did you go into thinking it was going to be one thing, but it turned out you had been very misinformed?
When I was a kid, I recall a lo...
I've been watching some of his longer interviews lately. In particular the Lex Friedman conversation, and I'm in the process of listening to the Piers Morgan one. What are your thoughts on him? As in, how does he seem to you? What are your feelings on the comeback attempt? I think his interviews are very tactful, measured, and his ability as an actor is indeed helping him here. Thus I'm not sure what to believe. That said, the whole thing is fascinating. I dont want to be closed off to anythi...
2024-06-12 14:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostI havent seen this one yet, but I've been curious about it for a while. Especially due to the mixed reception on it. Has anyone seen it? What are your thoughts?
2024-06-10 23:08:47 +0000 UTC View PostI posted this on instagram a few years ago but…if you ever wanted to know what kind of kid I was like, you have your exhibit A. This was me forcing my brother to perform in my auteur interpretation of the book, “The Island of Blue Dolphins.” This was a book that we read in fourth grade, and I guess I couldn’t get enough. Lol Cinematography courtesy of my dad.
2024-06-01 21:31:01 +0000 UTC View PostWhat movies do you love that everyone else seems to dislike, and why?
2024-05-29 17:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostI've been hearing that many channels are losing views due to the algorithm, particularly in the movie reviewing community. I tend to hear things like that peripherally off and on throughout my years as a Youtuber. But lately it's been feeling like a big topic of discussion in the Youtube world, and I've received a few DMs/comments regarding it. Many content creators are frustrated and unsure what content to put out in order to generate interest. For me though, my views and subscriber count ne...
2024-05-29 01:49:57 +0000 UTC View PostBraums is underrated, ya'll. I made a rant about Paciugo vs Braums ice cream on ig a while ago. But meal-wise, Braums is killing the game. There's a Braums on my way home from work. I worked late the other night and was starving afterwards. I got a bacon burger combo with fries and a strawberry shake. Less than $9. It don't have that In-N-Out magic but, this is honestly one of the best fast food burgers I've had in a while. And I've sampled plenty within the last few months to test my theorie...
2024-05-26 16:00:11 +0000 UTC View PostI am editing my review as we speak. Won't divulge too much here but I'll just tell you all that finally...we have a movie that I really enjoyed where I wasn't sitting there doing the whole "I'm so torn" style of reviewing I normally have to revert to. This is a rare occurrence. lol
2024-05-24 02:28:56 +0000 UTC View PostI always go see movies right when they open. Usually try and get the first showing if it works out, so I can get to work immediately after. But due to that, they always have survey people waiting outside the theaters wanting to ask me questions about the movie. In my head I'm always like "I really don't think you want that from me, yo." Do ya'll ever run into these people?
2024-05-22 18:42:40 +0000 UTC View PostWe've caught all the buzz, but now I'd love to know what movies you're most intrigued by that premiered at Cannes?
2024-05-21 19:00:03 +0000 UTC View PostI get shakes a lot during the summer. Can anyone describe to me the difference in taste between a malt shake vs a normal shake? Each time I see the malt shake option I want to try it, but I fear it won't be as good as a normal shake. I should just man up and take the risk one day. I was talking to one of my managers about this the other day. He was telling me that if I like whoppers, then I'd likely enjoy a malt shake, but that he personally doesnt care for it nearly as much. I've never had a...
2024-05-19 15:00:10 +0000 UTC View PostHas anyone seen any of the Werner Herzog Death Row series he did years ago? If so, are there any episodes in particular you enjoy, or you think I should watch? I've seen a couple, but have been getting back into it little by little.
2024-05-18 04:00:02 +0000 UTC View PostWhat movies are you guys looking forward to this month?
2024-05-15 14:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostThoughts on the trailer? Feels surreal to finally see actual footage, honestly.
2024-05-15 03:59:25 +0000 UTC View PostAlright...everyone has weighed in on this so it's not like I can offer anything different. I have many opinions on both, since I'm a big hip-hop fan. But I'll just say this: any of the boomer hip hop artists from the past whining about these two being too mean to each other in the beef, need to check themselves. As if they didn't do the exact same things in their own respective day. Rap is an experience and a culture represented by survival and anger as a fundamental core. Hip-hop is not dead...
2024-05-12 14:06:00 +0000 UTC View PostI thought I would ask you guys your opinion on this topic, as it has come up with a couple of patrons in the past as a way to solve the international issues that make Patreon a struggle. Initially I considered it, but had several specific reasons why I didn't move in that direction. But I'd like to know from you guys what benefits you see from each one, pros and cons. Maybe you subscribe to other channel content and can provide some insight. Thanks so much!
2024-05-11 15:23:10 +0000 UTC View PostI'm really really hoping at least someone on here has seen this. That ending...left me really stunned and admittedly a little confused. With some reflection I'm tying the pieces together, and yet still lost about what some of it means to me metaphorically. No question, I have to watch it again before I can review it. But if you guys have seen it, please tell me how you read that ending, and how it made you feel.
2024-05-10 14:15:22 +0000 UTC View PostI finally got my computer back. So I promise to get back to your comments/messages tomorrow. But real quick question I have for you: how long is too long of a Youtube Q&A video? Mine as of now is around 25 minutes. I will be cutting it down, don't worry. But just wanted an idea of what you guys feel about it, on average. Will also help me consider length for reviews in the future. Thanks!
2024-05-08 23:28:28 +0000 UTC View PostNext week is my birthday so I will be taking a small break from patreon. Will try and still answer messages and such when I can. As of now I don’t even have a computer, so it’s tough to do much anyway. But I will catch my bearings very soon. I saw The Phantom Menace in theaters last night on a special birthday surprise date. We definitely did not go in sober, and it was very late at night. I hadn’t seen it on the big screen since I was a kid. It was so trippy…and a very loaded emotion...
2024-05-04 21:57:04 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys. I want to apologize for not having the patreon viewers listed for my fall guy review. My computer screen busted right before the movie, and it’s now in the repair shop. I don’t have access to my normal tools because of that. And then my mic died right before shooting…lol. Been scrambling. I’ll have everything back to normal next week.
2024-05-03 06:36:21 +0000 UTC View PostI forgot to ask this when the initial news dropped, but what do you guys think about Quentin abandoning his critic movie project? I have to admit, I felt a bit relieved to hear it. Not because I don't trust Quentin. I just feel the whole meta critic thing as an epilogue to the career felt a little too on the nose for me, especially after Once Upon A Time in Hollywood (a film I've revisited and still struggle with). But also, I've always taken issue with Quentin and his obsession with his lega...
2024-04-30 00:34:26 +0000 UTC View PostJust got back from seeing it. Wow....I mean...damn. Easily the most ambitious thing I have ever seen from Bertrand Bonello. He's up to his same tricks, as in finding the repetition in human behavior throughout time, how our societies enable or hinder us in that, and of course how that all ties into the illusion of art/cinema. But he's gone almost full Cloud Atlas mode here. I have to think about whether or not the density of the project brings those same themes to life with the same kind of v...
2024-04-27 05:51:49 +0000 UTC View PostHey ya'll. As of now I'm about 100 subs away from 70K. I'll put up the usual Q&A for everybody else when the time comes. But I wanted to give you guys the opportunity to ask first. Feel free to ask me whatever you want, if you feel so inclined. If it's something unique, or something I haven't been asked often, I'm more likely to answer on cam. But I always give you guys the opportunity first. Thank you so much for being my special group of supporters. I love getting to know you, and I'm e...
2024-04-26 05:44:29 +0000 UTC View PostIm seeing Challengers on Thursday. I would love to get a sense of what you guys think of Luca as a director. I’ll be honest…I tend to oppose his work in terms of my taste. I haven’t seen one film of his that didn’t reek of self-aware art house pretention. He overdirects to the point of often losing the humanity in his films. The man had exquisite taste in many areas clearly. Brilliant taste in music and art but…I think he’d be better suited to make Italian perfume ads or something...
2024-04-23 22:41:05 +0000 UTC View PostI loved Sonic as a kid but, it kinda fell off for me for whatever reason. Maybe it has to do with the franchise itself becoming less popular where I am. Also the rebrand look I always thought was terrible. The only time I have had sonic within the last 20 years was if it was all that was open while on a roadtrip in the middle of nowhere, or something like that. However, I recently had just basic soft serve ordered for me, and I wasn't gonna complain. Damn, it good. It tasted like childhood......
2024-04-23 02:35:07 +0000 UTC View PostI'd like to know from you guys which Youtube channels you love to watch. It can be anything, on any subject, big or small. Would just like to get some insight into some of the stuff out there, and what you guys are into.
