Hi guys, going with an early Patreon release for this one, it'll be on Youtube later tonight. Just a quick video going through:
1. Things I missed from the Midsommar Complete Guide
2. Things I got wrong during the Midsommar Complete Guide
3. Diving deeper on remaining mysteries (What's going on with Inga/Who killed Josh) via a podcast hosted by Joseph of 'Popkultur med Joseph'.
Useful links I mention during the video:
Special Thanks to Joseph

Very quick no-effort video because I wanted to ramble about Severance. There will be a lot of word stumbling and 'errs' because I didn't want to spend more than a few minutes editing it.
This may be a really dumb theory, I may be on the right track, but I upload it here for your scrutiny. Please be careful about posting any Severance spoilers in the comments.
Currently doing the visuals for the Midsommar vid so hopefully that'll be out soon and then we can get on to the poll wi...

Here we are finally! Thank you so much for your patience. I'm sorry this conclusion is a bit lacking, I'm not super happy with it and I've done two editing passes to try and save it, but I don't know. Hopefully it's not too bad once I get into my stride with it.
I'm trying to think of a way we could crowd source planning out a complete guide on it, like sections/index etc, so if you have any thoughts on that please let me know. I know it's been quite a garbled live reaction across six ...

Just to let you know that this week I'm working on a Midsommar Youtube/Patreon video and also finishing off True Detective S01 for Patreon. After that I'll be getting started on planning out Beau properly and working on whatever the below poll decides for Patreon content.
I'm not abandoning our normal method of suggestions and upvotes, but there's been a few titles that keep coming up, or I've said I'll watch, and so I want to just have a vote between them to get at least one cleared o...

Something a few of you requested, something a little bit different. I get this won't be for everyone but we've been doing a lot of religion and mythology and I'm aware some of you aren't interested in Beau OR Nosferatu. So hopefully this is something outside of those interests that gives us chance to talk about stuff we usually wouldn't.
Necessary disclaimers:
The only prep I have done is watch the film one time, this is in an effort to provide myself a bit of a challenge and k...

Please take this with a pinch of salt, I'm doing an immediate reaction to the film after getting home. There are jokes that are probably in bad taste, colourful language and criticism - but I absolutely loved the film and one day later I can already feel that criticism fading away in favour of all the good.
It was tricky editing this down because I kept thinking of things I wanted to add, noticing mistakes or times I misspoke, but I resisted the urge in the name of keeping this to stri...

Hi guys, here's my responses to your questions from the AMA post. Thank you so much for taking part! Hopefully the new microphone doesn't sound like deep fried death this time round and I've got that sorted.
In other news I went and saw Nosferatu yesterday (loved it), so I recorded an immediate post cinema reaction video to that, I just need to edit it down and I'll be releasing that here either today or tomorrow. And then on top of that I'm going to record a reaction/analysis/comment...

Hi guys, from my perspective I haven't actually talked to you about a film in several months. Which isn't great for a Patreon that is allegedly about checks notes talking about films. So I'm going to watch the Substance over the next day or so and film a response to that. I think I'm going to see Nosferatu on Thursday but wanted to do something quicker than that.
However, in the interest of getting easy content up, please use this post as a space to ask me anything, and ...

1. Nosferatu 2. Suspiria 3. Eyes Wide Shut 4. Heretic
The Shining actually scored higher than Heretic but there was a lot of crossover with the Kubrick votes and I'd rather have more balanced options for people to choose from. Also I think if I put two Kubrick films in there it's essentially just splitting the Kubrick vote.
If you have an hour to rot your brain you can listen to me going through all your suggestions in the video below. I doubt it will be informative OR entertai...

Hi guys, hope you're all having a wonderful start to the New Year. It's time to vote for what film gets a Complete Guide after Beau is Afraid. What I'm looking for is four nominations that I'll then put into a poll on Youtube. But I'm giving you the first nomination - Nosferatu, which I still haven't seen but will fit nicely with what we've done already. So I'm actually looking for three nominations from you guys.
Just like when we vo...

Just a silly little video, no hatred intended! Blowing off a little bit of steam after all the seriousness. There is a fair bit of swearing involved so careful who you play it around, I don't want to ruin anyone's Christmas.
And on that note, I hope you have an absolutely wonderful holiday. I'll be finishing off True Detective afterwards and I'm going to put up another post for voting on what we cover here next very soon!
Merry Christmas!

Ladies and gentlemen here we are! As always I have to warn you that uncensored really does mean uncensored, be careful who you watch this around, there's going to be a lot of nudity.
Another disclaimer, Section One is concerned with the evolution of the satanic witch, it is essentially a history documentary. You do not need to watch it to enjoy the video and if you just want to hear about the film you can skip straight to section two and still have six hours of video to enjoy!

Quick update, everything is ready to post on Youtube, video has been uploaded to Patreon, but I've been waiting for it to process for about 12 hours.
Hopefully that completes before 6:30pm GMT tonight (It's currently 4:30pm) and I can click post. If not, I will probably leave it until tomorrow, which I'm not thrilled about but how it does in the first 24 hours is pretty crucial for video growth.
Either way, not too long to wait now.

Please base your answer on what you deem to be most 'clickable'. I'm leaning number three but wanted to hear what you guys thought!

Ladies and gentleman we have roughly five and a half hours fully complete and I'm onto the home stretch. Even though we're not quite done the amount of Patreon specific content in this one already surpasses the Midsommar video. Mainly because the history of witches is really quite vulgar, but also because there's a lot of stuff here I would get immediately banned for showing on YT.
There's going to be a few more days of silence from me and then I imagine there will be a lot of posts a...

Script Editing is done! Voiceover is done! Audio Editing is done! The first 30 minutes is fully done and I'm now on to the homeward stretch of editing the remaining 6/7 hours of visuals.
Really sorry I haven't got any Patreon stuff up in the last week or so, and other channel videos I had planned. I think I work better doing one thing at a time, the plus side is I have a lot of other stuff half ready to go following the release of The VVitch, so there should be a big uptick in content...

A bit of a shorter episode this time, I did record more but I deleted a 20 minute section because I went a bit spicy with some criticism of a certain website.
I'm not 100% when I'll be able to get the next/last one of these up just because I am now starting on actually putting together The VVitch video, but I'll try to fit it in somewhere!
I also have a Midsommar updates video recorded but I need to find the time to put that together as well.

You might be interested in the opening to this video. Very excited to announce Jonathan Ferguson, Keeper of Firearms & Artillery at the Royal Armouries is helping us out with The Complete Guide to the Witch! In the meantime you can check out their most recent video for some teasers and general matchlock musket history! It might even have a couple of hints in it..
And double good news: the script is finally finished. 110k words. Longest thing I've ever written. I am drained and I h...

"To realise that all your life, all your love, all your hate, all your memory, all your pain, it was all the same thing. It was all the same dream. A dream that you had inside a locked room. A dream about you being a person. And like a lot of dreams, there's a monster at the end of it."

Just a little podcasty ramble/reaction to all your wonderful movie suggestions.
Thank you all for voting, True Detective Season 1 was the clear winner. As I say in the video I'm going to approach this one slightly differently to Longlegs/Suspiria but hopefully in a way that makes it more informative.
Super excited for this one, it's probably my favourite bit of television ever and getting the chance to revisit it is already brightening my humours. Obviously it is eight hours o...

Hi guys, I recorded this while I was sick, I'm not even sure it's coherent and I probably sound disgusting, but for those of you that:
a) have seen Azrael
b) did not care for it
c) would like that opinion to be further confirmed by a third party
....then this video exists. To be fair to the film, it's not horrible, it's just not really much of anything. I see it as a wasted opportunity, certainly a waste of Samara Weaving's talent and I think we're probably at almost satu...

Thanks so much for recommending Suspiria, aside from a few minor complaints I really enjoyed it. I should point out that there's a lot of nudity and gruesome imagery in this video, please be aware it's probably not one to watch at work/around the family/while you're eating.
As with The Longlegs video, please don't go in expecting 'complete guide' levels, this is just an extended commentary/reaction to the film. If you haven't seen Suspiria I really would recommend watch...

Thank you all so much for voting on the next thing we cover here. This will likely be in a similar format to how we recently looked at 'Longlegs'. I just put together this little video in response to your voting and to have a ramble about Blood Meridian. It’s just an unscripted podcasty thing but my head is so full of Blood Meridian I just thought it would be easy to get out.
Format is as follows:

Okay so I am taking a few days away for a friends wedding. Please comment here (and upvote comments you like) with what film you would like us to go through when I get back. I'm hoping for something weird but I'm up for anything.
I think we'll do it like the Longlegs video where I do it unscripted and just kind of flick through the film scene by scene adding commentary/with a bit of editing when needed.

Hi guys, just a quick update on a few things:
1. You may recognise this musket. You may even recognise those hands. Very happy to say I've got an awesome collaboration lined up for The VVitch, with an academic and YT creator that I deeply respect. I'll let you guess in the comments but I'm pretty sure it'll be obvious..
2. The script for The VVitch is currently at 80,000 words. That may seem like I haven't done much since 70,000, but the script tends to remain in somewhat of a s...
