I think the old style with just movie footage is better for the main body of the video, it sort of immersed you in the story and characters. I think an introduction and outro is a great place for you to appear, like Alfred Hitchcock Presents or the Twilight Zone.

Mr. Pink is arrested at the end. During Mr. Orange's confession to Mr. White, you can hear the cops outside telling Mr. Pink to drop the bag. Cops: "Drop the bag, get out of the car!" Mr. Pink: "Don't shoot, don't shoot!" The voices are very low and it's hard to hear, you have to really turn up the volume. Also we hear no gunshots outside before they storm in the building, so it's a safe bet that he just got arrested. In the videogame (2006), Mr. Pink gets 3 possible endings based on player action: shot by police, arrested or escape.

I love that movie. I think Clint Eastwood directed it, and it’s actually really complex. Like there’s not much real good or bad, it’s just super unfortunate.

*Mr. White = A two faced loyalist* *Mr Blonde = A loyal sadist* *The father and the son = the pragmatist* *Mr Pink = The entitled self preservationist*

Reservoir Dogs is a phenomenal film. It’s my favorite Tarantino film. The writing, the performances, the direction, the music… everything is brought together beautifully and Tarantino made a masterpiece with his debut and has continued to make masterpieces throughout his career. Great analysis man, Happy New Year. Take care!

While I like the experimentation on the formula and think the live footage is additive, I also think the live footage works best as an intro/outro format, and I also think the sonic quality of the mic/environment you used previously to record voice over hits the ear more "smoothly" when compared to the sound recorded in this setup. Keep up the great work!

I think the appearance of your real life self would work really well for when you’re covering villains from literature like other Song of Fire and Ice evildoers and Napoleon from Animal Farm for example since it would help to add more visual flair to those types of videos and make it feel like we’re going through the books alongside you. If you wanna do something like this for all your future videos though then that’s fine by me, do whatever makes you feel the most comfortable.

Mr.Blonde is not the type to all of the sudden panic because he thinks hes going to get arrested...he kills because he likes it

In the same vein of career criminals, I would love to hear you analyze Walker from “Point Blank” / Porter from “Payback”. Two unique takes on the Parker character from Donald Westlake’s masterful crime series.

Love this episode diagnosis. Love the new style format! Keep up the good work my friend

I like the change a lot! Sometimes I find myself getting lost when it’s just clips from the media you’re covering. This format gives it a more focused feeling.

I prefer seeing you in the end of the video, the intros with "Hello everyone" put onto a scene of the characters is one of the most ingenious ways to start videos in the past few years. Love the beard, too :)

Would you consider doing a video on Gaston from "Beauty and the Beast"? I think your balanced analysis would be intriguing and the compare/contrast between the animated and live action versions would add some additional facets.

I love the fireside chat type thing you are doing and I think adding yourself into the videos is a great improvement to them. Thanks for all the great videos

I always thought your voice was horribly monotone and even worse than my friend and colleague Like Stories of Old. The opening shot of this video instantly turned your voice into a glorious thing (it's the beard and the fireplace). So keep up the on-camera appearances! The intro and outro might be the way to go though and I say this from an audience perspective not from a fellow creator perspective.

From Sauron to Tarantino I love the juxtaposition. Thank you 💯❤️😈🤖🫡

Love the series! The villain from The Third Man, Harry Lime would be great to analyze. As he is so multifacetted and poses a rare perspective friendship and love.

I dig the new format! Keep experimenting and bringing new things! Love the channel!

i’ve wanted to see this one done forever. this is right up there with pulp fiction, kill bill, and django as my favorites from tarantino

I can see these new changes being a good idea. Especially the choices of background music for each video. Perhaps even an outfit and a choice of drink to compliment that particular theme, when appropriate?

It’s nice to finally see you Mr. VileEye! I love your analyzations! Keep up the great work!

I've been waiting so long for you to amke this video. I love this movie so much. It's one of my all-time favorites. I recently introduced my college buddy to this, so this video could not have come at a better time. The characters in this are what I can only call "Identifiably Unidentifiable." You get to know these characters as people. You get to know their likes and dislikes, how they act, and above all, how they interact with each other. So you grow to like them, which makes you conflicted when they commit crimes. True there are characters that are better than others, but neither of them is a full-on good guy. Mr. White wouldn't go on a killing spree like Mr. Blonde, but he would still shoot somebody if push came to shove. Mr. Pink was probably the most tactful out of any of them, but he still does some bad stuff. Even the rat, the cop among them, ends up shooting a civilian because they shot them. These are very complicated characters with only a little sense of morality if you're lucky.

So...... that's what you look like? I respect it, keep up the great work.

Happy new year vile! LOVE the new opening! Keep going!😊😊😊😊

Awesome video! I came across one video last year, and have since watched them all! Great channel, I like the idea of you personally presenting an intro and outro and keeping the middle on footage of the characters! I think it cut back to you just a little too much! Also, I don’t think a plain black tee is vile enough, I’m not saying to go into crypt keeper territory, or a Rod Serling style suit, but something is missing… great backdrop, but maybe zoom out a bit and add candles, when I hear your voice, I imagine someone dark, mysterious and brooding, relaxing at the end of the day, but still focused on the evils of the modern world. I can imagine a wider view, with candles, and a darker set, lit by natural light, I don’t know what to change, but I like the new format, and will continue to watch!

If you listen closely in the last scene after everyone shoots each other and Mr. Pink sneaks out, you can hear shouting and gunshots which I've always thought meant that he died in a shoot out with the police though it is up to interpretation. Love the fireside chat feel of the in person sections. They're perfect for an intro/outro to get us immersed while having the normal move clips in the middle. Great video though, as always

That beard is majestic. I do like the videos, which are constantly excellent; but noticed that first. A lot of very good thoughts on criminality and the essence of a job. This video builds on former ones, but with a clear general philosophy feeling, not simply character study. Very much enjoyed it.

This takes me back to story time with Roald Dahl. Your relaxed posture, the toned down lighting to bring the fireplace more into focus, the leather armchair. You strike an impressive figure, and your voice completes the setting to a T. Please continue with this format, I don't think i can go back.

The analysis of one of my favorite Tarantino movies is absolutely fantastic! Great work and thank you! Also that's an epic beard your sporting well done.

Rewatched Reservoir dogs recently. Still one of Tarantino’s best

14:55 mr. Pink was actually heard being aprehended, when the police sirens near the dying mr. Orange confessing his true identity to mr. White

Vile, I imagined you as looking like a combo of the chef from The Menu and the food critic from Ratatouille.

There he is, the actual man himself! For feedback, I'm on board with these sorts of changes and will watch the content regardless. Like, when it comes to these sort of light stylistic changes. The content is still very Vile!

Love seeing you in the video, I think it works really well. Gonna watch them all either way though! Happy New Year!

A fireside chat with the vile eye ... fantastic.

Your videos are awesome man. Totally underrated in my opinion. Keep up the great videos!

You should definitely do this more for your future videos. Adds a type of extra layer to examining the character(s) in the subject.

My mom introduced me to this move when I was 14, the same age she was when it came out. Tarantino’s movies are really in a category of their own for the quality of storytelling.

Great video! Another great one would be the prison guards in the 1996 film Sleepers, and how they turned two of the four boys under their supervision into career criminals.

It's nice to put a face to a voice. I've watched every video on this channel. Keep up the good work.

I love the detail that, if you listen closely, you can hear Mr. Pink being also arrested in the end. Despite being the smartest member of the gang and the only one to survive, karma still b*tch-slapped him

I like that you showed us who you are. It deepens the connection between viewers and creators. This was a great movie to analyze as well. As a suggestion hav r you looked at the three protagonists from Grand Theft Auto V? Franklin, Trevor and Michael would be great subjects for your analysis.

Another great video! I'm not sure if you read these comments, but I'd love to see an episode on Kirei Kotomine from the Fate/Stay Night visual novel. His character centers around his desire to commit heinous acts for pleasure despite once believing in morals and normality as a legitimate institution of society, and he finds himself wondering if him being born at all was a mistake. In his early life he attempted to live normally and even practiced Christianity and got married in the hopes of finding happiness, but even his wife's suicide only fills him with the anger that he couldn't do it himself. It's implied this is the last straw that made him realize he can never find pleasure in happiness. To justify this, he seeks to unleash a being that encapsulates all the evils of the world to prove that he himself deserved to live. His parallels with the main character adds even more depth to him, and he's easily one of my favorite villains ever. As a side note, the adaptations and prequels often complicate his character too much in my opinion. Look to the visual novel for the original and purest take on Kotomine. If you've read any of this at all, thank you!

I like the face factor to the video. I have always been a fan of the pervious format with just clips and the voiceover, but I don't dislike this new approach, I think it works well and it adds a little something extra.

What an instant click, beautiful characters and beautiful analyzation across all the videos that help me as a new film major grow

I definitely prefer the old format. It was the perfect blend having the clips for the visuals, and your amazing narration for the audio. Would recommend making a poll if you're considering making this the new standard. Amazing videos regardless Vile, Happy New Year!

Great video. Can you do The Good Son and The Bad Seed? I would love to see you analyze evil children.

One of my favorite movies. Thank you for that. As for the new style; I like it. Espically for a movie that takes such thought. An opinion of corse. If you chose to continue this sryle, I think it works and it is your channel. Either way the voice change options or in person along side the footage. I will be back for more. The content. I thank you for that.

For the next episode, Catherine Tramell from basic instinct sounds like a good idea !

Cool to see you on camera. I've always appreciated your empathetic and thorough approach to discussing the myriad of motivations behind criminal actions. Having a face attached to that is nice. You're a good editor that can do a lot with imagery, but the face to face connection really makes it feel personal. I was raised by desperate people and made a lot of poor decisions in my early life. It's often a struggle to feel like trying to do better is worthwhile because it's easy to feel like you can't change, that you are your circumstances. Its complex and it can feel like no one wants to understand. So when you take the time in your videos to lay out how any person can be changed in complex ways, for good or evil, I feel seen. When you take the time to speak those words to the camera, i really feel seen. It helps. So thanks.

A suggestion: Analyzing Evil - Park Yeon-jin from The Glory P.S. I'm all for you appearing on-screen more. It gives the videos a sort of "lecture from your favorite teacher" vibe.

Great channel! Zero issue with the reveal. The set is cozy. The only thing missing is a gimmick. Ollie Davis. Dr. Wolfula, Ryan Aries. Keep up the good work 🖖

I just discovered this channel and it's cool to see the person behind the voice. It must've been even cooler for longtime subscribers. Having someone to break down stuff I missed in movies/shows about Very Bad People is really neat. It gave me a different perspective on some people who weren't evil, but whom I've come to realize had bad intentions, and I feel less bad being suckered by them.

This timing is literally perfect. I just watched the movie yesterday!

I've listened to a lot of your videos and I honestly thought it was narrated by a good AI, given how nice and consistent your voice is. I really like the change and happy to finally see the face behind the channel.

I, for one, like having you in the video for whatever capacity you feel like!

Reservoir Dogs is my favorite Tarantino movie. Amazing that it’s his first

What’s funny is, you have the perfect look for a guy who talks about evil a lot. You should complete it with a Dracula or Devil costume.
