Disney is stuck in *throw (more and more) money at it* mode. Buy a studio to get the IPs it holds (for a HUGE sum), order more content based on the IPs to be made (ignoring what made the IP valuable) and set a very high budget for that, make deals (e.g. with McD and Hasbro) to promote - and merchandise the hell out of - the movie(s). And finally, imitate something (butterbeer!) that works for the competition... again ignoring what made that idea work (worst of all; fail to make it good - organoleptically¹.) ¹ look, taste, mouth feel, aftertaste, scent, temperature ... all the things your sense *organs* ... well, sense.

They think they are entitled to our money and perceive themselves as Olympians deigning to waste their time on sub-humans who should by rights be worshipping them and fighting one another for the chance to kiss their boots. They will at best make a few hearted mea culpas and lie about how they mean to change, but they are assuming that all this will blow over and it will be back to business as usual in a few months at most. They might try to sneak their politics in through the back door a bit more, stay under the radar for a while, but the basic attitude that they are superior and we should know our place as modern day serfs has not changed. They will be back to their old tricks, probably sooner rather than later. Disney and co. probably have entire research teams feverishly working even now to try to find something, anything, with which to discredit people like the Critical Drinker and Nerdrotic, and if they can't find it they are more than capable of manufacturing it.

The Romans knew how to treat actors. Theatre (and film as a form thereof) is wonderful, but actors are trash; merely a necessary evil until technology makes them obsolete.

One trait that has made the Critical Drinker influential is that he appears quite likeable. The same goes for Ryan George's Pitch Meeting. While tailored for humorous effect, Pitch Meeting is letting some truth bombs slip through every now and then. Humor and likability are important parts of why "just some guy on KZread" can can have way more effect than the millions spent on PR-firms by big studios.

The real problem really isn’t about the energy bolts shooting out from people’s hands, all of video games and anime still have fans of characters doing that. But the problem is when it’s over used, it’s cheapened, not having a good reason and story incentive for the energy bolts so there’s no weight behind its meaning. How the character even got the power and mechanics behind it, also adds to an immersive world building, without that it would feel super generic. Finally, the cgi, editing and sound design would add to its impact, the artists now are so overworked, the quality compared to even Ironman 1, pales in comparison and thus feeling very empty and without impact. If these basic things aren’t fulfilled, any ability or action from the characters will feel just as annoying as those energy bolts and an absolute chore to watch. TLDR, I kinda see where you’re coming from and am on your side, but I’m just so sad about everything I’ve just listed.

I think there should be a requirement for any writer, producer and director to read the comic of whatever movie they are producing.

I still remember watching critical drinker when he was having less than 20k subscribers and of how well deserved his success is.

I watched one of his podcast clips about a week ago and one of them made a really good point. They said that Disney was trying to target an audience that just doesn’t exist. For so long, marvel was trying to make these all female superhero movies but men & women are very different. Boys have always loved superhero movies, video games and comic books. Girls have always been into more feminine things and are more likely into different genres like reality shows, drama, certain horrors and shows like Euphoria. Growing up, I always tried to get my nieces into superhero movies but were never really interested and always referred to more drama related shows like euphoria. It’s not to say that they don’t like superhero movies completely, some of em do like certain ones out there and same goes for women in general but like you always been saying for years now, story matters the most.

Same with Dr. Who (which she and her sister came to watch on their own and I was a late adopter of the new Dr. Who - I watched the earlier Dr. from Baker through Davison completely and dipped back in from time to time through McCoy).

The bar must be set incredibly low if you thought that show was good.

The movies failed because they were terrible not because of KZread critics like drinker. Like the drinker but the % of movie fans that actually watch him is extremely small, probably less than 10%.

I'll believe it when I see it. Remember, the "MESSAGE" is extraordinarily powerful and more important to some than money. The only optimism I can conjure up is that maybe (MAYBE) the shareholders will revolt because they see the money as more important. Otherwise, I'm simply not holding my breath.

that is a fact, the only thing that was good and entertaining about this latest phase of the mcu, is the youtube reviewers bashing them to bits.

It wasn't just Drinker. Plenty of us have only watched the Pitch Meeting videos by Ryan George for all or most of the post Endgame Marvel content. Some ppl only watch Drinker when they watch Tyrone Magnus reacting to Drinkers videos.

At 1:25. Hollywood didn't ignore the people they wanted to watch their movies. Hollywood pandered to the people they wanted even though those people don't watch movies. The people Hollywood ignores are the people they NEED, because those are the people who do watch movies.

Had no idea the Drinker hat such influence, but yes movie critics became a big thing with him.

You make very easy to understand analysis videos, even for not native English speakers. Thank you!

Right on. Thanks for sharing.

If Marvel is going to truly prioritize story first, I am not going to have high hopes for the first few that come out. It is going to take a lot to get their stride back and have engaging plotlines after all these years of "message first" and blaming the fans for the sub par performance.

Now game devs have to realize this too.

The Drinker didn’t do nothing but show us what Disney wanted us to see

It's not about money It's about sending a message

It's simply really ." GET WOKE GO BROKE "

It wasn’t just critical drinker, it was Gary from Nerdrotic, Jeremy from Geeks n Gamers, Jeremy from the Quartering, DoomCock, Drunk 3PO it was a bunch.

Beat me to the punch. Doomcock should get a lot of credit for being in touch with Disney insiders and letting us know ahead of time what's coming.

I keep forgetting America Chavez exists.

Imagine naming a character after the country you hate.

I think we need to keep pushing. Even if Disney/marvel does actually change, we should still boycot them. Boycot them into the dust so that they are forced to sell their intellectual properties to other studios who will see the power of the fans and live every waking moment in perpetual fear of deviating from the source materials so that they can force messaging on us. The collapse of disney needs to be so final and complete that no company will dare to be like them ever again.

I can honestly say the Critical Drinker has saved me a ton of time and money. I see his review, and based upon his critique, I watch it or not. My 12 year old kid has seen through the MCU's idiocy and incompetence and stopped watching it two years ago. They need good stories....and good actors again...

You nailed it bro 😎👍

The best part about drinker is that he isn't just some super fan arguing. He is an established author with a series of successful books, he knows a thing or two about writing so it gives his critiques so much more weight.

During this time I also lost a lot of respect for other channels that blatantly pretended to "love" these awful movies just so Hollywood would invite them to premiers. For me it was "Reel Rejects". I don't even watch their content anymore.

So, it was raining, and my plans went amiss, bored, I watched The Marvels. They had three pretty good characters and a Macro story, but seemed timid introducing Micro stories. I thought the Ms. Marvel character could have been a bit more mature, as a little blurb indicated she had accomplished the feat of saving a city. I wanted to know more about Cap. Rambo, she was interesting, but all I got was a flashback and a blurb about hurt feelings. Well, OK, how about Cap Marvel herself? Surely...a blurb about guilt, a flashback, something about marrying to save a world, but bones, no meat. They are trying so hard to create a "strong woman" and all we get is a soupcan...no soup. You can't have a micro story if you restrict your characters.

I just don't care anymore. Disney/Marvel was too busy spreading 'the message' and ruined all the good stuff they just bought up. Marvel and Star wars specifically. I just don't care for their products anymore. I'll never pay to watch a Disney movie ever again, if I can help it.

Dave Cullen does a great job at this too

Remember, Bullying large company's works.

I'm amazed how high Groundskeeper Willie has raised himself from the common milieu into national prominence. I didn't even know his shack got electricity!

Drinker, Mauler, and Platoon are a lethal combo.

He's the Movie Industry's Batman - he's not the reviewer they want, he's the reviewer they need.

Wow what a movie, i honestly thought it was going to be a documentary but was absolutely pleasantly surprised.

I seriously doubt Disney is listening to anyone outside the echo chamber they've created.

What we need is a critical drinker and robot head crossover 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

Nice! Doing a film essay on Chris Gore and Film Threat would be awesome. There's a lot of history and time there.
