Varinder Bhandal Spielberg: All of them please

Varinder Bhandal Marvel: So Mr Feige, how many characters you want for Infinity War? Feige: Yes..

No

This is the alternate Rob Scallon joke

Varinder Bhandal he saw Lego Batman and said challenge accepted

They were! Lol

You are not alone brother. It was my favorite sequence of the whole movie

More like The Snoozing!

The 2nd key challenge was my favorite part of the whole movie. You're not the only one.

They were very inspired from the movie which was great

That part was fucking badass.

Fave Part, Hands Down

My brother and I flipped out like little girls haha what an awesome scene!

Yeah

Best part of the movie. So nerdy but at the same time so badass ^^

Connor Fleming it's odd that Garden Warfare is made by EA and has absolutely no transactions at all.

@@jacobb.9181 unless you count the cool yet useless cosmetics

@@emilnielsen526 nope, you can easily get them all for free. It takes ages but it is meant to be played without spending money on it.

😂😂

Agree, it felt like you were reading most of the time. Plus, no high-pitch laugh? Come on! :)

But nowhere near as professional for someone who wishes to call himself a film critic.

really? i MASSIVELY preferred this format.

I agree. This feels more like a video essay. The other feels more like a friend telling you his thoughts on the movie.

Dayemon Blackfyre Yes, exactly!

Zoom In his old videos his face wasn't in the thumbnail, but that was like 6 years ago.

Its the end of the times!! 😱

From this day on, everything will change.

The pop culture references are a red herring. What the book/film said about future society avoiding reality by immersing itself in VR both fascinated and frightened me. The key to the Oasis is the fact that players can earn money there which can be transferred to the real world. If this becomes a reality the Oasis will consume entire generations of humans for real. My son showed me a livestream of the #1 ranked Fortnite player and how he attracts celebs and serious income through his livestreams. Turning this from content creation to the Oasis business model is the missing link that will make some genius a billionaire just like the fictitious Halliday.

The concepts are amazing and prophetic to be sure. The actual story of the film in terms of character development, emotional engagement... was bland and forgettable to me. Was that better done in the book?

​@@vincer7824 - Absolutely! The film didn't even properly develop the SETTING. The characters were badly butchered, if they were developed at all. The book was also far more exciting in my view, with much higher stakes and more danger at almost every turn. It is my absolute favorite book. I gave it out as presents and every single person told me later that it was great. The movie is an instantly forgettable 'spectacle'...

@@vincer7824 everything my man, I don't know what other way to express that the movie horrendously butchered the book.

I completely agree

tell me about it my dude!

Agreed. Chris sounds either bored or disinterested. I know he isn't, but that's how he sounds in this review. I got bored about half way in. He has a lot more personality when we can see him on camera.

Agreed. Stilted and robotic. Not interesting in the least.

100% agreed. It Works, but please switch back when you can. Te repetitive footage also got a bit boring after a while

He was working on rebuilding his house and showed mid construction in the video. He half assed it during a busy time for him, lol. He just pooped this one out is all and showed why, lol

I member

L Franco you beat me to it

Ochinpo not necessarily, references play a huge part for surely but there are is-despite popular belief-a story. There are also some newer references too, like Halo and Overwatch.

But unlike Ghostbusters 2016 the references are actually well incorporated into the plot instead of just shoe-horned in because the writers can't think up a good joke.

Also, stop dancing.

Shin Kim they're definitely still good, I just feel like he's doing it because he has to now :/

sounds like butthead lol

Yeah, if you're not going to show your face, then you need to be lively, even if you're reading a script. That's how radio hosts work and deliver their lines.

NicKeLas Seeing Chris express himself visually has it's positives, but it shouldn't get in the way of a well expressed review. This format provides stronger content, I think.

Alan Lamprecht I agree, that's a good point. And I don't think it gets in the way, Chris's reviews are usually well structured and insightful. It's just a bonus. Seeing him speaking is like listening to a friend when discussing a movie. Also, to restate what I said before, more Chris=less trailer footage that I don't want to see, but that is my case. Perhaps, the majority actually wants to see it, then it would be smart to follow that approach.

Totally agree on all the trailer footage :/

Yeeeeees I love it 😂

Crazy dog lover didnt see that coming. I almost shit my pant when i know the shining a horror movie

Hậu Hớm Hỉnh When he was running into that room with the crazy lady I was like noo not in THERE 😂

How was it genius? It was just relying on another movie for entertainment

not really, the reason why it was genius was because that in one of Spielberg's interviews about Kubrick he told Spielberg that when he's making a future film he wanted him to re-make a scene from 'The Shining' to *entertain* people and make 'The Shining' more popular edit: 'The Shining' is Spielberg's favourite movie

DAVID MATTOX totally agree!!

scripted chris voice is not as easy to listen to as unscripted on-camera chris

Yea the words he uses are too big, it makes it seem less passionate lol

same, there's something missing when you can't see his facial expressions

David can't wait to see your review of this movie!

Agreed. I love tv/movies so much that I need to see his face to get a sense of what he is feeling in these reviews!

It sounded a lot like avengers, I thought it was familiar

Yeah personally I'd rather this format be reserved for long released movies, so he can use the gambit of actual scenes to help illuminate his point.

BigZ7337 iii

did start sounding very computer generated at some points

Yeah, that's what I thought as well... almost sounded like a computer voice reader going on at times.

I agree, it sounds a bit one-note and emotionless, it makes it hard for me to pay attention.

Do you mean stuckmanized?

Well there might've been a chance that he recorded this at midnight like he explained at the beginning of the video so wouldn't be surprised if he was sleepy.

Do yourself a favor watch The Wizard. this film is entirely derivative of earlier films about video games.

Nico no

No, not really

hahahahaha

Second. It's honestly more precise and interesting than his typical video reviews.

I agree this is actually better despite having millions of dollars required to have a kitchen that can be renovated

Interesting? The entire video shows all the trailers and snippets, how is this unique? The voice over sounds scripted and while it can be articulate, I see no difference in this and a written review on IGN or something. This is the definition of a typical video review lol?

I have one small critiscim, althought I enjoyed the format: A felt Chris' narration a bit monotonic. Something that's easily improved upon

adj789 Millions of dollars to renovate a kitchen?...does he live with 50 Cent in his mansion or something?

*while

I agree. His personality sells to me and it seems like a friend that can't see me back

From experience I'd say a lot less. Though from what you hear Chris say, that time instead now goes to writing a script. But personally I'd rather take time to write a script than constantly curse at my own f**k-ups on camera while editing (though that's just my opinion).

My reviews are in this format. For me it takes about 2-3 hours to edit the video (depending on the complexity of any jokes or rarity of footage and having to cut around things). Writing the review takes 1-2 hours, recording the voiceover takes around 20-40 minutes and exporting takes around 30 minutes. So all in all I'd say this process (at least for me, I can't imagine Chris' is much different) takes around 6-8 hours.

Do you get hit with a lot of copy right claims because of this format?

2KooL Reviews Pretty much every video has copyright claims, but you can still dispute them successfully.

BattleUp Saber amazing lol

This review would be 20 minutes longer with him listing every single reference in this film

I grew up with fill in the blanks You welcome

The real reason he's not at home is because he's in nostalgia rehab

He knows that people are sick of hearing that.

DigitalPsyche pretty spot on.

I heard that the book is bad. Is that true?

Crispman 777 Yes, it’s bad, but only in terms of a lack of sophistication. It’s an easy read for the young reader, although the subject matter can be adult. The idea is kind of fun, the puzzles, etc. The characters are meh at best, but you get a better sense of connection and dynamic than in the movie. The book also has a little bit of SJW in it that the movie leaves out. It’s a good fan fic, essentially. Parzival is certainly a Gary Stu. Knowing what I know now, I’d watch the movie then read the book, if I had any interest in the concept.

DigitalPsyche What part of the book do you consider sjw?

Ok, so it's an ok book for 12-15 year olds? Also what do you mean by puzzles and it being SJW (I know what the term means, I'm just curious as to why you think it deserves that label)?

Tom Baker grew up with Chris' not-so-good content :-(

LOL

That's next wanna bet lol

Blizake DuhSnake have you seen MUD? He's so damn good in that movie

TheFlickinCritic I did! It's been a few years now though, can't remember much about it tbh

It's gotta be surreal

Is he a good guy?

What was your relationship with Tye? And how was he, as a person in school

Jw Nj Poor Steven:(

Ranshitha Kularathna clearly, lol

Bullshit

Strongly disagree. He sounds like he is reading rather than speaking natirally and it's very awkward and over-enunciated.

has chris ever criticized and condemned any movie for being crap? he seems like a cookie cutter mainstream shill to me. Gave the last jedi a B, what else needs to be said. No idea why you sheep follow this douche.

Darklightau I mean, it’s called having any opinion tbh...if you don’t agree with him, then you can just always watch another movie critic that falls in line with your own viewpoints and expectations. Doesn’t make much sense to watch one that doesn’t. And he did criticize Pacific Rim Uprising and give it a C-, which was his review before this one. He also criticized that recent horror movie with the masked killers (honestly can’t remember the name) and gave it a D. Also, he gave The Last Jedi an A-, which I honestly agree with since besides the Finn+Rose side plot essentially being filler and giving the movie awful pacing, I honestly wholeheartedly enjoyed it.

Alejandro Nava I still wanna see that movie.

Alejandro Nava Yes please review this movie so I know what to think about it. How am I supposed to know if I like it or not!😜

grvonny idk. Maybe go see it when it's released

Studio release pattern... very... slow

The movie seems boring?

"You didn't sound depressed" Oof

More like robotic

He does!

Naw ya can tell he’s reading

Philip Alvarez - What's wrong with that? I don't think he was trying to hide that fact. It actually makes for a better review.

French Horns a plenty.

I completely agree. Facial expressions are very important

brogarn I think he expresses his views on the film better in this format, and the review is what's most important after all.

😏

Luke Benson love your videos

Luke Benson YES LUKE

Your comment is currently at 69 likes which is oddly appropriate. But when someone reads this comment the likes on your comment have probably climbed, which is a damn shame.

Ultimate Fortress Of Comics I agreed.

I really hate the face cam style, always have. It looks lazier and doesn't take full advantage of the visuals. It also tends to rely on jumps or rambling. And the thumbnails are basically living emojis 😉 😀 😥😧 🤔

Ultimate Fortress Of Comics we'd probably get less videos

I want to look at his face whether he was happy praising a movie or was he cringing. Maybe he says good thing about the movie but at the back of his mind there's "BUT...", and he won't look so happy.

xponen so mabye every so often he cuts to himself!

Yes!

I agree about the villain. I never felt any real threat. But I did enjoy the other characters and Halliday’s scenes.

I agree, though I would say the film is the annoying, polar extreme opposite of boring- it's frantic; too much is going on in the action scenes, and anything that isn't action gets way too much camera movement or is cut too tightly. The characters get flung together into a space where there's no room to breathe, almost as if someone was in the editing room shaving off individual frames to move every scene along as quickly as possible.

Oh, no, I agree. The pacing is unrelenting, and the real life sets are cramped. But I think the cramped irl sets were done intentionally, to make the Oasis feel that much more freeing than the drab of everyday life. Hell, even the grey filter over the non-Oasis scenes makes it more obvious.

However, what I was calling boring was the story itself. It was bland and pretty uninteresting.

HeadCaptain remember the Chucky scene haha it was sooo baad

i can agree , they foreshadowed his paparazzi infatuation for Artemis duirng the race. The book did a much better job of showing how wade was a fanatic follower of hers before they ever met. He had posters of artemis in H's basement. So in the movie it wasnt explained that he was a fan of hers for years.

Mundy. Medics Would probably be nostalgic in the future world that RP1 is set in (then again, RP1 was all about specifically 80's nostalgia, so let's be honest: Tracer, Iron Giant, etc. don't fit at all).

That's a good point! It just feels very manipulative and cashgrabby for such a recent character to be shoved in there so last second. But like you said, not everone fits.

Shoe horned? Isn't that a bit harsh? Shoe horned implies it's been contrived in the story and is forced in there, and sticks out like a sore thumb. Tracer is in 3 shots of this movie. She has an incredibly emotive design, so it must be fun for animators to work her in. It's not as if the plot revolved around her, the character model just shows up a few times. Also, she's not right in front of the crowded scene, if you want a slight spoiler, that scene has SEVERAL cut-aways, showing the different character models rushing into battle. One of those has Tracer. (and Chun Li!) Finally, in 2045, Tracer is a nostalgic, beloved character. Yes. I can totally believe that. She's not from the 80s, but neither is the Oasis. The fascination from the 80s only comes from the main characters, and the creator of the Oasis. Would make sense that in a virtual world, some kids might not care for old school stuff and might just prefer more modern heroes they grew up with?

In 2045, Tracer would be decades old.

and he doesn't ramble on

Bala krishna sharma I can assure you he won’t.

Barry O Toole Yes! B.o.B. Is great by its story, but The Pacific is great for its trauma in war.

Vincent Knight true I noticed that to that platform looks like a dumb vine app

have to agree stardust is pretty shit, any joe blow can go on their and a review, and ones have review channels on youtube sound pathetic on there I hate that Nostalgia critic has few episodes with this crap, its to much cringe

I think its just his sponsor bro, i wouldn't look too much into it :|

Vincent Knight He said he’ll review mostly trailers there so....

It's not like he's going to review movies in there. He'll probably do some first impressions to trailers.

it is the only anime where you can say "the manga was better" but the anime is worth watching.

A lot of "fans" of anime only like the new stuff, they weren't around for Toonami and the Digimon vs. Pokemon days. One of the last clips in the review shows a Gundam, but disappointed by the lack of an Eva unit.

Ochinpo movie is great, but the manga is still better for more development of characters and expansion on the story.

lain iwakura to be fair though the movie is mostly about 80’s nostalgia, and Gundam is an influential classic much like EVA.

to bad we won't get real life version, have to agree its movie can't be remade the original movie and manga are still the best, but get to see the bike was nice

Silvestri is perfect for it, I think. Especially considering so many of the references are from films he composed for. He has a very distinctive sound, to be sure.

Hence why the matrix worked so well. I agree, it already bothers me and I haven't even seen the movie yet. I mean, a headband with lights would have been all the explanation needed. Or just add it to that 15mins of solid narration since we are all clearly morons.

FuzzzWuzzz Get your OCD ass outta here then num nuts

FuzzzWuzzz In the book, most people controlled their character's movements through their haptic gloves, like game controllers, so they could do everything they wanted in the oasis while still sitting on a chair. Some people could afford better rigs, and these included the omni-directional threadmills that let them walk and run, simulating a more rral experience, but they were strapped to harnesses in a secure room or area while doing so. The fact that people where just running around in real life in the movie was really stupid, "unrealistic" and honestly, even dangerous. It made no sense. But then again, most of the movie realy doesn't, sadly.

Really?

Gets meh after the first egg is found.

The film didn't work. Nobody talks about it

Ok the shining was really cool, and mecha Godzilla vs Iron Giant was amazing, but the real life shit sucked, oasis though 👌👌👌
