Wow, a million views. Not too bad at all. Thanks, guys!

"If you didn't catch the sarcasm, you're probably this movie's target audience." LOL, burn, haha!

This is impossible, his sarcasm level is over 99,000.😨

"So I was stirring my Jack Daniels into my cornflakes this morning when I had a bit of an epiphany --" perfect opening line.

I love the constant clips of movies from the past that totally destroy the feminist arguments about past cinemas. That is probably the best part of the video. Sad thing is, most of those clips are from GREAT movies with GREAT characters and remind me of a bygone era.

Xena always made me feel like a powerful woman, and I'm a man.

I always hated clickbaits but this one, this one I like

I love how Blade actually kicked off the MCU

I feel so bad for young people having to be protected from this constant victimization... Disney is trash.

I'm 79 years old and this is the best piece of sarcasm I've ever seen.

Can you actually troll youtube recomendations algoritm this way?

Thank you. This is what annoys me the most about this current "woke" cinema stage were going through. Weve been making better, more influential content for years but because there wasnt a discussion about it and it was accepted, people ignored it. Buffy, Captain Janeway, Vasquez, Ripley, Princess Leia, Mulan (original) Lara Croft etc they were all written to be strog female characters. Its nothing new. People just pick and choose to fit their rhetoric. No one cares about pushing forward actual agendas anymore, they just cars about how it makes them look to everyone else on social media.

Two years later, and this is still the best piece of deadpan I’ve ever seen, omg

The 11k dislikes were people who only listened to the audio of this video.

KZfaq recommended it, i decided to bite.... The taste was exquisite. My compliments to the chef.

I learned women were to be respected as a child from one scene in a fantastic movie. Hudson - "Hey Vasquez, have you ever been mistaken for a man?" Vasquez - "No... have you?" State of the badass art.

Takes true strength to admit you were wrong about something 😂

When the KZfaq algorithm can't detect sarcasm 🤣🤣

Captain Marvel had such an amazing character development though. She went from being arrogant and charmless, to being arrogant, charmless AND ridiculously over powered. So over powered that they had to make her detached and indifferent so she can step in to save the day once in a while, like divine intervention, but not wreck the movie by effortlessly fixing everything. A female hero just doesn't cut it anymore in 2020 we demand a sarcastic arrogant female god.

I can't express just how much I love the inherent sarcasm in this channel. Keep it up drinker, you magnificent explicator of social insanity.

While the history did have its problems, there seems to be a determination to prove that the past was evil and must be erased. How prideful must you be to think that your generation is the only one that can have any virtue and cares about things like the well being of others (women and minorities included). Some of the greatest ideas, art, and moral values come out of the past and it would be a terrible loss to pretend that none of that existed just so we can feel virtuous now.

I love how Disney just ignores their own Black Widow. She's defenseless and only a pretty object?

The Critical drinker has clearly mastered the art of sarcasm

I wasn't told to go away and now I don't know what to do with myself.

I love the sass here. You should consider making a "I was so wrong about" series.

The level of sarcasm is like a refreshing hot shower.

Peggy Carter gets the message of feminism across 50 times better than Captain Marvel.

I honestly thought this was serious. Then I watched the video clip. Bravo my good man. I love your sense of humour. I laughed out loud quite a lot during this video. brilliant!

So glad you included Xena and SG. Grew up with those shows and still absolutely adore them) Seen Captain Marvel in a theater and was not impressed.

The 11k dislikes are from people who read the title and didnt watch.

You cracked KZfaq's algorithm! Good for you man!

This right here, is what makes you one of the greatest movie reviewers of our generation regardless of its sarcasm.

Equality is when you treat everyone equally, no discrimination. If men centred movie is bad then it is and when women centred movie is also bad then it is also I didn't even consider the gender of the main character I think I am equalist

If there's such a thing as a "good" clickbait, this is one of em.

these days we confuse "independent" with "violent"

The freakin sarcasm in these videos just...just give me a warm happy feeling in my cold dead heart.

Just finished watching Farscape (first time watcher) and with some weird KZfaq algorithm logic this video came in recommendation. I’m so glad I watched it. Sarcasm level, top quality. So true , all movies and tv series nowadays portray women powerful by putting men down as if that’s the only way to show they have agency. Ladies like Sarah Connor, Aeryn Sun and Sydney Bristow can kick the ass of villains (men or woman) without being arrogant about it. Get the help from their men colleagues and help them in time of need makes their character arc interesting.

Yes exactly! It s like when someone said that The Hunger Games was apparently the 'first female - led franchise.' Really? What about: Buffy the Vampire Slayer Alien La Femme Nikkita Resident Evil Underworld Twilight She-Ra Witchblade Red Sonja Xena the Warrior Princess Wonder Woman... 🤔

Wait, what about Ripley from Alien? Wonderwoman? Sarah Connor from Terminator? (The first two) Media: Nah they don't count

This was perfectly paced, eternally entertaining and riotously funny.

1:41 I was wondering when this scene would show up

Ripley would eat Captain femenist for breakfast.

At least 10k people either didn't get the joke or can't face reality.

I worked at a movie theatre, and while if ya see a person walk right past the counter without showing a ticket, they'll get the boss called to come down and escort them out, Screenhopping is LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE for most of us staff to prevent. Buy ONE ticket, and go to whichever theatre in the place you want, the people at the admissions desk won't know, and I, the janitor, can't check EVERY ticket people have. Heck, I never checked any. You paid for the product, it's not my business which one it was. It's particularly easy on slow Wednesday Afternoons, when there's like two people at the desk max.

The fact this showed up in my recs on April 1 is proof enough for me that the algorithm is gaining sentience....and a sense of humor.

i felt represented in captain marvel the same way i feel represented in bananas because humans share dna with them

mate, you are a clever writer. I find myself genuinely laughing at your commentary. this is gold; so happy to have found your videos - many thanks from a new fan.

After seeing her being Guess Host for Jimmy Kimmel while interviewing Chris Pratt, I think Captain Marvel wasn't so bad in the end.

You got me in the first quarter, ngl.

That scene where Ripley ran back to get the little girl and fight the alien queen is still one of the best, heroic action set pieces in cinema.

I love your 1980’s flashback to the shamelessly “weak, helpless, timid female characters ...”

I found this channel recently and very much enjoy the reviews! I wish Rotten Tomatoes certified critics were more like you and RedLetterMedia as opposed to the people who give terrible films like Captain Marvel, Terminator: Dark Fate, Wonder Woman 1984, Birds of Prey, The Old Guard, Gunpowder Milkshake, Charlie's Angels (2019), and Ghostbusters (2016) positive reviews.

I love how captain marvel was the first movie ever with a female lead 💪

There's nothing quite like dry, Scottish sarcasm.

11k dislikes. This is why you should watch the video, not just listen to audio.

I have now heard sarcasm so thick I could cut it with a dull spoon.

The sarcasm here will forever remain UNMATCHED.

I don't need to see Captain Marvel to see a strong, independent female hero. I've had my mother beside me since 1981.

Marvel: Wow finally a powerful female hero for fans to look up to and love. Black Widow and Scarlet Witch: Are we a joke to you?

Is there anything finer than a cup of tea and 238 seconds of weapons-grade sarcasm? No. I don't think there is.

I rewatched Stargate SG-1 not long ago, and I can't even experss how much I appreciated Sam's character when comparing her to how "strong wahmen" are portrayed nowadays.

Don't forget *_Gone With the Wind_* : A feisty woman whose first husband dies, second one leaves her, her child dies, and she realises that what matters most is the land her father left her. (NINETEEN THIRTY-NINE!)

To be honest, I really really hope Captain Marvel gets her own scene in Endgame. I usually find myself wanting to take a leak halfway through the movie and you can't exactly pause in the theater. .... I'm actually not joking, that would be really convenient, if I knew exactly when I could could get up for a couple of minutes without missing anything.

I just went to look up how much they really made on the film. They still are all still claiming it made over a billion dollars. Ask 20 people who watched it what other marvel movies they watched and to rank them. Most people I know who saw it can barely remember it and many who saw all the other MCU movies skipped it. How did it make that much money. Were there a few thousand people who paid to watch it 100 times in a row?

Love that the first line in the video was out in efap 100 endgame meme video

“So I was stirring my Jack Daniel’s into my cornflakes this morning” were the first words I ever heard from The Drinker and instantly knew that, out of the long line of dribble that is the KZfaq suggestion feed, I’d clicked on a legend in the making

What I love about this man's sarcasm is that he never steps back from it. You just assume he's telling the truth if you're dumb😆

Thank F--k, I thought you stopped drinking for a moment there.

"Played by an actress who has all the Charisma charm and likeability of my Underwear after two hour gym session". Sounds about right. I watched the Movie.

"They don't have any agency or abilities of their own. They can't fight, they can't protect themselves." As Sigourney weaver unloads a clip into multiple aliens. This is gold

"Do I detect a note of sarcasm?" I'm a simple cat. You include footage of Aeryn Sun, I click the subscribe button.

Your particular flavor of deadpan sarcasm is great.

11k thumbs down on an honest and benign perspective? Weird.

"So I was stirring Jack Daniels into my cornflakes...." Here, take my laugh and my sub you absolute unit

Always found it funny how the MC in a movie trying to potray strong women, needed to cheat with movie science superpower to beat her superior and then throw a sucker punch with it

I don't know how I missed this one till now. Listening to it while I was picking up the house. I lost it. TYVM

"But Drinker you charismatic stallion" I hear you ask "how could you a dedicated connoisseur of cinema be wrong about something as clear-cut as this" I laughed for about 5 minutes straight before I could regain enough control over myself to type this down you're a legend man... keep up the good work

A world without oppression is a world where people have to take responsibility for their own failures. In other words, there will always be oppression, even if it's fabricated.

I agree with you 100% about all the hype that is surrounding movies like these now. The bad thing is that some of them are pretty good. I saw this in the theater with my daughter and I loved it. Mostly I was jamming out to the music from my youth, but it didn't make me want to walk out...and I've done that shit before.

This video title should be 4 minutes of straight sarcasm.

Hang on, hang on; where was Buffy?! Another example of a weak and helpless female character, who had 7 seasons of having to rely on powerful men to protect her against them horrible vampires. Come on, get with the program Drinker!

The sarcasm plus the in-your-face female power scenes is just brilliant.

1:06 to 3:15 - I think modern Hollywood writers need to study this part.

Even easier than buying tickets to a different movie and screen-hopping to this one - buy tickets to a different movie and then see that other movie.

Okay, so I've spent waaay too much time reading through as many of these comments as I could, and it's obvious that a LOT of people, for many different reasons, feel very strongly about this movie, this video, and what others are posting about. For what it's worth - and that may not be much - what follows are the personal views of one 20-year-old female, lover of all things horror, fantasy and MCU-related (with a particular emphasis on the first of those) and single-mum to a 3-year-old daughter. I think one of the key reasons so many people had issues with the Captain Marvel movie is not just that the movie itself was decidedly average (if you enjoyed the movie, that's fine; if you need someone to tell you that it's okay for you enjoy this or any other movie, that is not so fine - please grow up). The issue, for me at least, was the lead actress constantly - and I do mean constantly - elevating herself as some trail-blazing, near-messianic, ground-breaking pioneer: the MCU has always had strong, entertaining and feminine female characters, from Pepper Potts, to Black Widow, Peggy Carter, Hope Van Dyne, Nakia, Okoye, Wanda Maximoff - the list is far longer than many people seem to assume. Carol Danvers was most definitely not the first, despite what her actress never got tired of insinuating. And that's without getting into the fact that Brie Larson seemed to interpret every question she didn't like as a 'personal attack' or insult. Don't get me wrong: when you are in such a prominent position, it's fine to use that position to express your views, draw attention to perceived injustices, etc., but using every opportunity to hammer home the same worn-out, not to mention blatantly untrue, sound-bites, is going to turn a lot of people against you and, by extension, the product you are promoting (in this case, the movie, as opposed to your own agenda.) And to respond to a couple of people who have gotten very angry with me when I say that it's okay for these female characters to be sexy and feminine because... well, they're female, no-one seems to bat an eyelid when Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans, the sadly late Chadwick Boseman, or any of the many other male characters are strolling around shirtless (and I certainly don't avert my eyes...) My point is: why are women in any position to rant and rage when we see some female flesh? It doesn't even have to be bare flesh: tight-fitting clothing is apparently enough for them to shout 'Exploitation' now. Yeah, equality... except when it comes to tight-fitting tops - that's where we draw the line. Women have breasts: get the hell over it! Bottom line: there are far too many people who have devoted their lives to being offended/insulted/demeaned/angered by something - ANYTHING. It defines them as a person, and they will always find a target somewhere. Any attempt to reason with them is doomed to failure because there is no such thing as criticism any more, no matter how justified it is or how civil you are in presenting it: any disagreement or deviation from their views is an attack. Dare to contradict them and you're immediately labelled racist, or homophobic, sexist, misogynistic - whatever the current favourite buzz-word happens to be. The irony is, get on the wrong side of them and there is no-one nastier, more spiteful, or outright hateful when they turn on you. I've been called everything from a lesbian, a 'tranny' and far, far worse, by the very people raging against these names! But I think that tells you everything you need to know about their true colours. Sorry for blathering on so long, but for every one of these 'feminist' loons (who don't even comprehend the true meaning of the word) there are thousands of regular, down-to-earth women who just die a little inside when we hear them scream and stamp their feet like a tantruming 5-year-old. They DO NOT speak for us; they DO NOT represent the majority of us. I swear.

"It's a movie that features a strong independent female character, and that's something we never really had before." Me: He can't be serious... ""The reason I didn't see this was because of my own toxic masculinity and internalized misogyny." Me: *bursts out in laughter* I see what's going on here!

"...I think you're the target audience." Good one! :D

I miss Xena warrior princess. Hell of a show that was way ahead of its time.

The Endgame "Girl Power" scene. God that was so cringey. They could've replaced that with MJ appearing there from out of the blue and it would've been several times better.

"these women are helpless" *hard cut to ripley beating the xeno queen's ass in a mech suit*

“So I was stirring Jack Daniels into my cornflakes this morning…” And a legend was born. Go away now!

Watching this video 3 years later and I thought the Drinker had hit some new level of drunkeness when I read the title. Then I remembered Sarcasm is a thing...

Wonder where the 10k downvotes come from.. Fems who realise the sarcasm? Incels who fell for it? Brilliant video, though!

OMFG - This is awesome. Those weak female characters from the past were some of my very favorite characters. I never realized how chauvinistic and patriarchal it was of me to love those characters for their shallow, damsel in distress nature. No wonder I'm only interested in quiet, subservient women who are helpless and desperately in need of a man to save them. Thank you so very much for making this obvious.

I'm going to use video as a reference for those who would dare to claim things such as "women were only damsels back then". I imagine the reaction would be "B-b-but it's just a movie!" Oh, what irony that would be.

LOVE the fact this montage kicks off with one of the very earliest (and rarely acknowledged) movie heroines, Mary Ellison.

At first, I was like "WTF is wrong with this guy" then I noticed all the footage of Strong Female CHARACTERS (as opposed to Strong FEMALE characters). Then, I'm like "You've earned a sub"

I dont know why I was recommended this but i decided "Hell, I'll bite" and you earned a sub, good on yah mate.

I remember a tweet from Arnie, that highlighted that he was only the supporting role in the Terminator. People lost their minds. Sarah Connor was an outstanding character with a great arch over 1 & 2.

Ripley is truly the greatest strong female character of all time.
