Wear that top hat with pride.
This video is what caused me to look up YMS on kiwi in the first place. Honestly it's quite lolcowy of him to dissect random comments about his misrepresenting his review from plebbitors, which aren't exactly known for their high degree of being correct. It instinctively reminded me of his Cyberbully review (specifically him not being able to handle the internet).
Well, the general population was repulsed by Homosexuality longer and more energetically than it was repulsed by incest throughout most of history (and still is in many parts of the world). On that note, I wonder if the slippery slope argument is for real. How come just a century ago people were jailed and looked down upon for sodomy, and now it is actively celebrated everywhere (in the western world, that is) and suddenly 1 in 10 people is gay / bi.
If there is one perspective Adam needs to adjust on, its that he needs to stop being such a repetitive and redundant sperg about certain topics. Just give a concise opinion and let it go.
I became disillusioned by YMS because of his beastiality comments and what he did to Mark English, but I'll always respect him as a critic because he seems to understands that curation is the most important aspect of criticism. As someone who's interested in the field of criticism, I feel it's far more rewarding to turn people on to a movie they wouldn't otherwise see than turn them off a movie they would, and probably will see. 99% of the people who go see capeshit will probably enjoy it and not be bothered by it and their opinions aren't going to change because of how you feel. But if you can turn even just one person on to something they otherwise would ignore, you've done something infinitely more rewarding.
I wouldn't say this isn't necessarily true. Making an interesting review in and of itself a worthwhile goal. I watch a ton of reviews of shit I've never seen or played and never will. That's why RLM's Star Wars reviews were such a huge fucking deal. It essentially reinvented the idea of a movie review. To completely and totally shred something and then reassemble it with original content to make something very different, and perhaps even better.
this CGI movie made for $300 for the sole purpose of ripping off confused elderly people is actually not that great" over and over and over and over and over again. It's totally joyless hate fodder for fucking imbeciles who need to be told what to think.That's why I think Oldboy is such a great review of his. I actually did watch the original, probably the first foreign film I ever watched, because I really trusted his opinion. I've also seen a lot of weird shit I'd never had heard of specifically because he rated it highly. I went out of my way to get comfy and dedicate a few hours to watching I'm Thinking of Ending Things. While I don't really consider it as memorable or great as Oldboy, I didn't dislike it, and the topic it approaches (men reflecting on a life of loneliness and dwelling in their daydreams about women they've only had passing words with) is extremely interesting.
I contribute that to the fact that most religions frown upon Homosexuality and, given how big of an influence religion did and still does have, it becomes pretty obvious as to why that is. That's not even mentioning the degeneracy some Homosexuals participate in that would disgust most (granted there is degeneracy on the straight side of things, but that's beside the point).
It is, you actually give a good example of why it exist.
Because, over time, people have been getting less strict when it comes to the standards of sex and relationships. It has it positives, but there are obvious negatives.
Here's that slippery slope I was talking about. Letting the Transgenders join them was already treading a delicate tight rope, going even further and letting something like Necrophilia join in does nothing put the LGBT crowd in hotter water than they're already in thanks to the current group's degenerates.
Kind of a dealbreaker for me tbh. The dog BJ advocate has an opinion? Into the trash it goes.
the more and more i read this, the more and more i think of STAR_/ster and his latest video on his youtube channel and how he's been dealing with critics in general. aka "wah, this audience doesn't like me, but this other audience that we've moderated to fuck does"
Don't, its completely self indulgent and pretty much boils down to "you're going to die alone like every other person on earth" with the only reason to watch the film being Philip Seymour Hoffmans performance,
It’s a thousand times more autistic and he just can’t stop doubling down. His take is that “if you’re against humans fucking animals, you must be vegetarian, because they’re at least morally equal, but you could argue killing and eating them is worse than fucking them because fucking them makes them feel good and killing and eating them makes them feel bad.”
I.......if it's possible to have a brain aneurysm and vomit at the same time....
I’m not surprised cause I can only imagine what spending most of your daily time editing videos with seemingly little breaks can do
