Rings or power is not that bad ,the story is getting more interesting,And getting to know Sauron better from the one from lord of the rings

Most of the people who hate the show online have not even watched an episode👀
Besides- I watched the first episode even though I never finished s1 and it still sucks balls😪.
Any way, keep up the good work

Baddestguyp:


Watch good anime.

There’re only good anime series not movies. And since AOT finished - I decided to end my anime journey until I see someone who already has One Piece pre-downloaded for me to collect

Ami the only one who finds it difficult to watch movies or series now? Or I'm just investing my time in boring shows lately 😩

Baddestguyp:


Didn't even waste my data on a single Episode of season 2.

I don't have much faith in the writers

I heard the episodes are just two people talking😂, Amazon has invested billions already so no stopping them now

BlackManta:


Now that I have seen the other names on the list, I'm suprised that Josh Brolin is the first actor they considered

Because all these actors will fit Hal Jordan better than Josh Brolin

I hope he declines

Did Chris Pine not play wonder woman's lover one time?

Sometimes I think this movies with huge budgets like this is a money laundering scheme or it’s just to pay the over 50 highly acclaimed set to star in this movie

Sooo Looong👀

Kaycee7:
You did say, and here let me quote you

So I'm most definitely not getting it wrong and it is, indeed, irony.

Oh, I didn't even see the word😂, I take it back🙏 I got my grammar wrong then - react would be a better term👍 but in the context of the conversation - it's totally fair what the Drinker said in response to the Boys s5

GloriousGbola:


I never met you but I heard you are an obese midget with bad breath, a lisp, stained brown teeth and no hair.

I don't need to meet you in person to confirm this

People kept telling snake plisken they heard he was taller or he was dead in the escape movies

wtf! 😂😂😂 Looks like you're self reflecting since this is your first time even joining in the conversation.

Kaycee7:
I want to believe you're confusing criticism with reactions. You can react to something you haven't consumed. You can't criticize it. And it's absolutely hilarious how the Cuties you used as an example is a great example of why you can't/shouldn't criticize something you haven't consumed.

Like, perfectly written irony

😂 you're getting it all wrong. I never said the Drinker 'criticized' the series - he didn't: if you actually watched the video, he actually 'reacted' to the backlash it was getting as a 'I told you so' video
So it's not irony🤷🏽‍♂️

Kaczynski:




Reeks of female incels ?

You must be a fan of Andrew tate

abduleez1:
Few moments in the show they can go wildly funny if they want to besides all the doom and gloom going on in the background.

Have you watched fleabag?

🎥 The Union (2024) = 3.7/10 👎🏻

You guys just watch anything no matter how generally negative the reviews are😂

NaijaMemes:


Heavy Spoiler guy does breakdowns, easter eggs and hidden meanings in movies and series. Still a kind of review sha.

He never criticises if the content is good or bad - it is not a review channel

NaijaMemes:



Black Panther was not just a movie, it was a movement. You cannot separate both. The Critical Drinker wants to separate both because he doesnt like the black woke movement.

This is what is wrong with criticism - you make up points to defend your point and that's wrong 🤦🏽‍♂️.
You can totally separate it - merit over race- don't you think it's racist to even say you can't seperate it👀 it's like saying you can't condemn a piece of content because the group who made it is black👀
Get over yourselves abeg

NaijaMemes:



Just admit that you dont like wokeness.................

Bro😂😂😂😂 I just said Sex Education was one of my best series until s4 came out. I just think trying to preach above entertainment is not what movies are for

Palehair:

I knew it, I knew this story was taking a political lane and that was what I was trying to avoid but that tells me all I need to know. Again, comparing apples to oranges....... watching clips to watching the entire series is a flawed argument but ok



Ok, good for you

It isn't a political lane - but the showrunner said it himself it was meant to annoy right wing voters🤷🏽‍♂️ so bro chose being political over actual story😂 - glad it worked for him

NaijaMemes:


The Drinker is quite funny at times when he bashes Disney.

I confess that I still watch him for laughs. But for serious critiques or critics, I watch the following-

1. Heavy Spoilers
2. Brain plot

You watch heavy spoilers -for reviews?👀 When has he ever reviewed a movie

NaijaMemes:



Bro, you just proved Palehair's point.

The Boys Season 4 was good. Of course, it wasn't as good as the earlier seasons, which is natural for any superhero series. Please, tell me a superhero series that season 4 is better than the previous season (*cough* the flash).

However, you were swayed by anti-woke right wing movie critics that THE BOYS season 4 is not good. It is still great, even though earlier seasons are better.

Like I said - I watched the Boys S4 and it wasn't great👀 it was good close to avg - personal biases most of the times determines how you take a series - Sex Education is one is my favourite series of all times but most people here hate it because it's gay leaving out its story🤷🏽‍♂️. You can't single out The Drinker because he does the same thing. The Passion of the Christ and Apocalypto was totally hated by people in the United States not because of its story but because of the director and its message- imagine those movies coming out today! Most people in Europe and the US who actually like the movie would say they don't because they don't want to offend folks - the same for Black Panther

NaijaMemes:

However, you were swayed by anti-woke right wing movie critics that THE BOYS season 4 is not good. It is still great, even though earlier seasons are better.

It wasn't just antiwoke right wing movie critics saying this - normal people were saying it too.
The story was rough and had no balance and unlike previous The Boys seasons- it wasn't meshed with reality at all - what was the point of Annie having an abortion storyline except to get rightists talking 😂😂 or the hospital scene where hundreds of normal people were killed with no repercussions whatsoever just to get clips to post on X😂😂

NaijaMemes:
Ah. The Critical Drinker debate!!

The guy has some good points about the wokeness of Hollywood. However, he can be wildly biased. If I want to laugh at Disney or a woke film, I will watch his reviews. Outside that he has a lot of trash opinions.

I remember his foolish take on the first black panther movie.....

You're totally right with his take on black panther but it wasn't foolish- rewatching it over the years shows how overhyped it was - the only reason it was very successful was because it was Marvel combined with black people and white deniers supporting black folks- it doesn't have anything to do with its story🤷🏽‍♂️. But nonetheless, it was still a fun movie to watch

Enifome1:
Just watched ‘It Ends With Us’ and here’s my honest review! 🎬 Watch now and let me know your thoughts in the comments! 📽️ #MovieReview #ItEndsWithUs #BlakeLively #JustinBaldoni #honestreview

Blake Lively wasn't connected with the film at all and her bringing a comedy writer to rewrite a DV movie is *ucked.

Palehair:

Ok buddy, I'm so over this topic because I told you from the very beginning, I don't like or listen to critics so I don't see the need for these back and forth banter and seriously your comparison with cuties is dumb (sorry not sorry), we literally had a visual poster for cuties that kept everyone in an uproar whereas the boys had just a trailer and nothing so again, comparing apples to oranges

It's not, through mass hysteria on rotten tomatoes and X, there have been different clips on the Boys choosing gore and offending right wingers over substance and story - if millions of folks tell me not to watch something THAT I'VE ALREADY PREDICTED WOULD BE ASS! why would I need to watch it and waste 7 + hours when I could be watching something else 🤷🏽‍♂️

Palehair:

So you are gonna skip over the manipulation of.......you know what? Nevermind, let's just agree to disagree

I sincerely don't know anything about that 🤷🏽‍♂️ and can't comment on it. As a cinema goer, I still rely on movie critics to watch a movie- I can always tell when there's personal bias towards a film- like alien: romulus- critical drinker slightly hated the movie but I still went to watch it🤷🏽‍♂️ and it was my thing - he never said don't watch this film

Palehair:

A discussion about the merits and counterpoints for a season you haven't seen is wild

It is totally possible to criticise something you haven't seen. It's like saying 'I can't criticise Cuties because I haven't seen it, that's bollocks to me! You don't have to watch child porn before you criticise it. If people had told him already what's going on in the show, he has every right to criticise without watching

Palehair:

I guess you didn't bother to check out the other examples I gave of his shadiness but I digress. Even if you are right about HOTD which you aren't but you may not know that because many of his fans don't watch his drinkers after or whatever it's called podcast, he bashed the series there again with his buddies. The others examples I gave have already labelled him as one who has bias because there's no way I'm trusting him to properly review a movie after his manipulation of movie scenes to bring in comments, that alone has already ruined any credibility that he has as a critic

You are the one handpicking my points 😂
I watch his podcasts and his after hours sometimes and I don't need to watch every of his video to make my point. Bashing a series doesn't mean he hates it. He could say he hates a particular part of the series but he never said the series was bad overall

Palehair:

I have said he does give valid criticisms but as a critic, you should be neutral which he's far from because he knows his audience and he knows what they want to hear especially if such movies are used as ammunitions for the culture war, he doesn't even have to watch it like he did with the new season of the boys, he just joins the internet bandwagon to bash something he hasn't even seen or goes as far to

This is not true. I even believe he's more authentic than most movie critics because you already know what to get from his reviews. Take a look at HoTD - he made a video before it premiered that it had the potential to suck! but after watching the first season, he changed his mind- also, he has been a hater of Disney star wars projects and Disney overall- it'll do him well if he bashed every Disney and Star Wars project that comes out but he never does - he gave a good review for shows like Andor, Mandalorian s1 and S2, which to everyone's POV were good shows, even Disney movies like Deadpool and Wolverine and others - he wasn't bias🤷🏽‍♂️ unlike some reviewers like Reel Rejects and Cinepals who watched the Acolyte in pain and never gave a bad review even tho it showed in their edit and face that it was bad because they didn't want to offend the overlords. He has always kept it real🤷🏽‍♂️ - to himself.

Palehair:

he doesn't even have to watch it like he did with the new season of the boys, he just joins the internet bandwagon to bash something he hasn't even seen or goes as far to manipulate the movie scenes so as to make the writer's job look incompetent as in the case of glass onion, now anyone who looked at his review won't even bother to watch that movie not knowing "drinker" manipulated the scenes to make the movie look stupid in the review...... Now is that a movie critic to you or someone who just wants to give his audience what they crave? Something to talk crap about

In terms of the boys - he has already said right from s3 - he won't be watching the boys s4 - the video wasn't a review of the boys s4 - it was just a discussion about its merit and counterpoints, he never said it was a review

Palehair:

I did use to watch his videos just to laugh at how he criticizes them, he does have some valid criticisms that makes sense compared to nerdrotic who I don't even want to get into but there are some that will tell you he's just farming for views and they are all filled with recipes of rage-bait from manipulation of movie scenes to fit his narrative like he did with glass onion to him choosing specific blockbusters or trending movies to discuss on which are mostly Disney content because hating on Disney gives you views now to his personal biases on the culture war and how it impacts movies forgetting we've gone down this route before. Don't even get me started on him criticizing movies that haven't been made yet or the ones whose trailer have been released like he did with prey (he had to release another video to say he was wrong only to criticize the movie again in his "drinkers after hours" video cast with his "team". How about how he also doesn't understand some movie or series scenes? the way he analyzes scenes in his "after hours" podcast is just steeped in his personal bias and somewhat dumb that he misses certain plot points as we see in the case of his "the last of us" and "one piece" reviews not to even talk about him screaming about movies and "the message" which is a good thing but he's so against the message that he's beginning to turn into what he actually hates because a movie didn't appeal to his own message. What's even more laughable is that he reviews movies that he didn't even see like his review of the new season of the boys had me gagging, a season he specifically said he didn't even watch, even his own audience trolled him in the comments

There are lots of examples that I can give but don't want to derail this thread any further, I don't listen to movie reviews especially the ones on YouTube because most are a cesspool for toxicity, I watch and I form my own opinion

You’re definitely right - in a sense.
Unfortunately, farming for views is what almost every YouTuber does - he's no different - movie YouTubers pick the most talked about topic and form their own opinion about it - that is his job! What makes him different is because he talks about not only movies and pop culture relevant topics on movies but trailers too- even Jeremy Jahns does that sometimes🤷🏽‍♂️ you say all this like he only talks negative about movies which is totally false! He has said multiple times that Hollywood hasn't been making good movies and he makes videos of how dumb some movies are - and he's not wrong- he has his style of reviewing movies and that's not wrong - he doesn't need to change his style because people say he's rage-baiting since it works for him. He never said you shouldn't form your own opinion- it's still his opinion and you're free to use the information you got anyway you want.
If you really think YouTubers don't have a bias when forming an opinion about movies- you're totally wrong- some Movie critics hate a movie just because of a subject matter being discussed - like Sound of Freedom that was bombed with bad reviews from critics just because they don't like the guy in the movie and subject matter. Drinker has his personal bias - of course! But don't think every other critic doesn't. It doesn't make him different

abduleez1:
Paul Thomas Anderson vs Quentin Tarantino...



I'll go with Quentin since I've watched half his filmography...while PTA I've watched none of his even tho I have half of his films in my watchlist or downloaded already.

It's Quentin all day - but my best movie overall is a PTA movie! Boogie Nights

T

Palehair:

His delivery is hyperbolic especially when he first started but his commentary isn't and like I said he's a ragebaiter because that's what gives him views. Moreover, I don't even listen to stuckmann or any other movie critic, I'd rather watch a movie and form my own opinion

How do you know he’s a rage-baiter if you don’t watch his videos 👀

Palehair:

The movie is bad for sure but I'd rather eat shit for eternity than listen to what that toxic rage baiter have to say

Because someone speaks his mind on a particular topic- in an entertaining and hyperbolic m way doesn’t make him a rage baiter - not everyone is Stuckmann

nani667:
Had the urge to re-watch peak

I can’t count how many times I have rewatched Friends

Palehair:
Make audiences no treat my Queen like this na (I know the trailer wasn't giving but it's my babe Cate)

I almost bought a ticket to watch the trash. I hope she got paid tons for the embarrassment. From playing an Oscar nominated movie to this trash is unhinged.
Better still, watch this review, it's more entertaining than the film itself

🎥 The Kindergarten Teacher (2018) = 3/10 ❌

Disgusting! If no be ment, wetin u dey carry 5 year old go bathroom go discuss? This woman fit dey crase for real life. Pedophile in real life. Even her voice dey irritating 🤢

Wow, we actually agree on a movie👀. I couldn't even finish it, I was just skipping over and over again to avoid the cringe and disgust I was facing🤦🏽‍♂️. The part where the scene she was having sex with the poem teacher transitioned to her looking dotingly at the 5 year old then taking him alone to a bathroom almost made me vomit in disgust🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️, how did this movie get made? They even made a scene with her changing clothes in front of a 5 year old is so insane🤦🏽‍♂️🤮🤮🤮

BlackManta:
