Mike's deadpan delivery is great, it's the same reason I find Phelous so funny.

Speaking of Phelous, his latest animated film review is up https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJu0kQbTNIk

The (not-so) Hunchback of Notre Dame.

I keep hoping that there's a cutesy animated hunchback movie that steals from the Disney one but ends in the total Victor Hugo brutality of the source material, maybe with the rapping friendly gargoyles weeping and swearing off their faith in god.

The Dingo pictures version (which is what Phelous is reviewing next) actually more closely follows the story of the book than any animated adaptation. It is also so surreally bad it had me laughing all the way through watching it.

It's Every Other Wednesday, that mean a new Doctor Who Book Guide. Today, we wrap up the Cat's Cradle trilogy with "Cat's Cradle: Witch Mark" by Andrew Hunt. This is the one where the Doctor and Ace travel to the land of unicorns and centaurs, written as a goof to try and one-up the author's friend. It's actually better then it sounds.

I've never found RLM's Plinkett reviews the most fun or interesting part of their channel, but its what they're known for and all the fans have been clamoring for this, so I won't begrudge them their fun. But I won't be watching it.

I think that Plinkett was off the mark with the whole 'why didn't Rey & Finn kiss' thing. I mean, I think it's nice for a movie to actually not have the two leads not hook up, but they did seem to have chemistry to me (especially considering neither actually was probably into much of a dating scene - not much opportunities for romance as a stormtrooper or junker). I'd rather they actually, you know, build up to it.

Rey and Finn obviously didn't kiss because the couple in TFA is clearly Finn and Poe.

I mean, the stilted dialogue, the total lack of chemistry between two actors who's characters' love was supposedly so strong it destroyed the Republic, the entire CGI green screened sets that gave the actors nothing to work with or move around in, long action scenes that aren't particularly impressive or exciting that do nothing to advance the plot... its not like there aren't legitimate criticisms to be made.

I am sincerely asking you people on the Internet Critic Discussion Thread 3.0: Probably more than 0 Days Since The Last Drama Bomb thread: What does "woke" mean

In case you're being sincere in asking, it's a term used first by African Americans to denote someone who's aware of how things really work re: racism and social justice.

Picked up by poo poo bags online as a way to sarcastically call someone a dirty liberal. Basically the new "SJW" as pejorative.

I forget which video producer talked about this (maybe Dan Olsen?) but apparently its been researched and people are just more likely to click on a video with a face in the thumbnail. I'm sure Phelous is aware of this and I feel his extreme over-mugging on his thumbnails is his way of both indulging in this trend and mocking it. I don't have anything to back this up with, but it just feels like that would be something he'd do.

I don't know anything about passengers except that it's bad and universally panned but if I'm picking up what you're laying down it's about a dude accidentally waking up from being cryogenically frozen during an insanely long space travel --meaning he won't survive the trip-- and to deal with the isolation he wakes some woman up which dooms her to his fate, but the movie paints him as likable and you're supposed to sympathize with him?

Because holy poo poo if that's the case :stare:

This is the exact plot of the movie. And yes, its played like its romantic.

The Mysterious Mr. Enter is literally autistic (he's talked about it in several videos) so it could explain his tendency to take things 100% literally and not understand things most people would have picked up from existing in society. That said, I always enjoy a good rant so his channel is fun for that purpose. Really I could listen to anyone berate Family Guy for hours and hours.

I've gotten a fair amount of enjoyment out of Digibro's actually scripted output, his series on The Asterisk War is a pretty good indictment of a truly bottom of the barrel, zero redeeming value anime, as well as looking at the industry and the culture that allows a show like that to get made and thrive. A good listen, but it's long as gently caress cuz he dives into everything. I've learned to avoid his vlogs though.

Digibro falls into that category where they can be super cringy, but their output is decent enough that I can ignore it. In particular, there's a world of difference between being a cringy weeb, and being actively abhorrent like some people we could name.

It'd probably be a good idea to just unfollow his "after dark" account which is where he's on camera just blabbing about whatever comes to mind and forget that channel exists. His scripted stuff is pretty good.
