Movies With Mark is one of my favorite smaller movie channels and he's done the horror satire classic The Stuff which feels like it 100 percent holds up today: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfj6SAA_9ec

The Stuff is a true classic. Maybe Larry Cohen’s greatest. Definitely Michael Moriarty’s greatest.

One of the things I learned from shotgunning Knowledge Fight is that positioning oneself as the logical endpoint of YouTube's algorithm is very easily doable, and making videos that are comically long is one of the easiest ways to do that. Youtube's autoplay algorithm prioritizes showing a more intense version of whatever's in the viewer's recent YouTube history, so if you just leave YouTube on and let it play, eventually you'll start watching longer and longer videos. Alex Jones used this to make his millions; at the time he was deplatformed, InfoWars had about 20 YouTube channels daily uploading clips from his various shows of various lengths. By the end, random Fox News segments were three or four autoplay videos away from InfoWars. Quinton and MauLer are absolutely playing the same game, only with video essays and media criticism instead of paranoid crypto-fascist ramblings. A 9 hour video is only going to appeal to someone that wants it as background noise, and people that want YouTube as background noise are also probably going to let the algorithm dictate what they watch, so autoplay will give them Quinton eventually. Whether or not those videos are good is entirely beside the point. They're unreasonably long because being unreasonably long gets you clicks.

It's funny that's when you jumped off, 2014 is the year he quit smoking and his depressing job. Skies of Arcadia is like genuinely the turning point where he stops being so mumbly and tired.

Fil5000 posted:The best thing about Darth Icky is it is genuinely impossible to know if George Lucas suggest this so the Force Unleashed developers would leave him alone or if he thought it was a good idea. it is because he thought their edgelord game character was extremely lame and didn't deserve a sith title. this comes through better in the full story where he tosses out 3 or 4 progressively worse suggestions as they sit there and squirm awkwardly

I think I rather have Lucas changing his film every release because he felt the compulsion than the "holy crap, it's Glupp Shitto!" nonsense it has devolved in to.

Yoda met Chewbacca in the prequels, and Lucas was heavily involved in the 3D Clone Wars cartoon which has plenty of that stuff too.Jazerus posted:it is because he thought their edgelord game character was extremely lame and didn't deserve a sith title. this comes through better in the full story where he tosses out 3 or 4 progressively worse suggestions as they sit there and squirm awkwardly One of the key moments of the prequels involves the name "Darth Plagueis the Wise" being said casually and with a straight face.

I found this Youtube channel of some people that still do the horror host schtick introducing movies of questionable quality with interstitial breaks/bits. (think Elvira or Joe Bob Briggs) It's terribly cheesy but I'm glad there are people keeping that alive. Also, it got me to watch The Boneyard again. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9H0OZBtL4U Unperson_47 fucked around with this message at 09:09 on Dec 31, 2023 |

Really excellent series, currently on interseason hiatus, arguably the best thing FFF is publishing online right now. She just did a two-part on Tales from the Crypt and got Bobcat Goldthwait (who starred in a notable ep) and John Kassir (the voice of the Crypt Keeper) on as guests. trilobite terror fucked around with this message at 11:00 on Dec 31, 2023 |

I tracked down the VappyVap \ Full Sauce playlist and heard it at 10x speed, skipping around to see if I could find the specific episode where this happened. The fact that it had a couple hidden videos in between +Pigbuster posted:It's funny that's when you jumped off, 2014 is the year he quit smoking and his depressing job. Skies of Arcadia is like genuinely the turning point where he stops being so mumbly and tired. makes a lot of sense. There's no way Vappy or Vinny would have heard 2 hours of "........... oddd.... looooking....... duuuuuck.......... hitler............... sick.......joke" and thought that was worth perserving. Kaiser Mazoku posted:https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-dt9nZO9iew&pp=ygUXdHViYnkgY3VzdGFyZCB2aW5lc2F1Y2U%3D There's way more joy de vivre going on there. Yeah I've watched some of the recent video highlights and looks like I've missed quite a bunch these past 10 years.

trilobite terror posted:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLhXxHLpp_rhFvDZMDRrgHRY-hZyj5cEsA&si=8kzF9CStCys9b6_E It’s really great. I want to put in a word for FFF’s Saturday morning cartoon series as well, which has the terrible title Shaturday Morning Cartoons. The FFF guys are the least interesting part, but Caitlin McGurk of the Ireland cartoon museum at Ohio State is a frequent guest and is extremely knowledgable about comics and cartoon history, and sometimes she gets a second guest who is an actual cartoonist. The episode where they watch the Swamp Thing cartoon has Steve Bissette, for example, who drew Swamp Thing when Alan Moore was writing it. I’ve learned a lot from watching it.
