1. While you've made your feelings on the 90s quite clear, were you at all into the 90s animated Marvel shows on FOX? If so, how do you feel they hold up against / compare to newer iterations?
Review aggregate sites, by their very nature of letting anybody leave their opinion, are highly vulnerable to things like review bombing. A small group of persistent and pissed off people can wage a campaign to tank any movie or game's score (or vice versa).Gennadios said:I realize that I'm probably in the minority on here, but I see aggregate user reviews as a better indicator than critic reviews, and the user scores on Rotten Tomatoes/Metacritic paint a different story.Gizen said:This is something the internet has to get over itself about. TLJ is viewed extremely positively by the movie going public at large. Just because an extremely vocal minority doesn't like something, doesn't mean the silent majority who can't be bothered to argue over internet forums agrees.Gennadios said:Nu Star Wars isn't viewed positively.
That's probably a better way to look at it, I never though of it like that... so thanks.Kolby Jack said:I also like Cinema Wins (fell out of love hard with cinema sins though), but disagree with your wording a bit. I like it not because it shows how a movie is good, but instead how someone could end up liking the movie. Cinema wins covers a lot of poorly received films. There are several movies I like that I wouldn't call good, but them being bad is also not why I like them. I just like them, unironically. Justice League would be one example; I saw it in theaters and honestly loved just about everything in it, yet also I fully understood why so many others would hate it.CrazyGirl17 said:I admit to liking Cinema Sins but I don't take it seriously. I do kinda prefer its counterpart Cinema Wins, which is more positive and also goes into detail of why the movie is so good.
Also as a wannabe writer, the fear of plotholes in said writing makes it tricky to even do it since people nowadays are critical about that sort of thing.
(Also I can't be the only one who got the reference in the title, right?)
He was, actually. There was a throwaway line by... either Tarkin or some other imperial officer about the Emperor having dissolved the senate.Exley97 said:(Wait, there's an Emperor? Who is this guy? He was never mentioned in a New Hope!
Bothleet_x1337 said:Question:
If you had a choice between a game that's fun to play but has a story that you actively dislike and can't skip, or a game that's boring or not fun to play but has a story you enjoy, which one would you play?
If my children were Kirk and Picard, it'd be an easy one. Kirk is objectively better, based on the only logical criteria: I prefer him.Samtemdo8 said:You prefer Kirk over Picard?
To me that's like choosing between my children.
And I have yet to see Deep Space 9 to see if Sisko can even compete.
Not gonna lie. I hate those people. Mauler's 5 hour critique of The Last Jedi was the point of the video taken to its logical conclusion. Dishonored Wolf decided to not give his channel anything that makes him stand out other than making gay jokes about himself and Rags is just awful. I'm okay with people being unwavering in their views, but Rags is just condescending about it.Samtemdo8 said:Patrick's video became viral because of Mauler's 5 hour long stream criticising it:
Honestly to me this is gonna soon create precendent where everyone are gonna now criticize youtube critic's videos when it comes to movies and tv. Making video responses to other videos.
Yeah I?m curious about that too; how do you need 300 minutes to break down 13 minutes? That?s fucking insane.Windknight said:on the one hand I've never heard of this takedown till now, but I absolutely saw the 'shut up about plot holes' video.

... 5 HOURS criticising a 13 minute video?
Five. Full. Hours. That's over TWENTY times as long as the thing their critiquing.
(disclaimer - not actually watched the video (again FIVE HOURS) so if they don't actually spend all that FIVE HOURS on on 13 minute video, feel free to mock me for jumping to conclusions)
This is their usual MO. I have not seen the video, but one thing these channels are infamous for is talking non-stop. Mauler is extremely nitpicky, Dishonored Wolf has a lot to say (to put it nicely). and Rags cuts people off halfway through each sentence. I wouldn't be surprised if that's the caseGordon_4 said:Yeah I?m curious about that too; how do you need 300 minutes to break down 13 minutes?

Well, it was two videos. One about 13:30 and another about 11:30. So, 25 minutes. Along with going over and breaking down a couple long comments from YourMovieSucks that were refuting the original video.Gordon_4 said:Yeah I?m curious about that too; how do you need 300 minutes to break down 13 minutes?

Mauler actually did most of the interrupting, though I'm sure not intentionally. They all like to talk, so it just happens. Rags was pretty quiet/polite. Wolf sperged out a bit at the end when YMS was in the chat.HazardousCube said:This is their usual MO. I have not seen the video, but one thing these channels are infamous for is talking non-stop.
