@2 In Italy we have a group of 'nerds' (in their late 20's late '30s) that built up a community to talk about comics, films etc (all things they went to college for) Some of them were already trolling certain topics without fact checking what US MSM were vomiting out, not knowing that in the US the medias works differently 'cause a PR can plant an article even if it's false. Here you cannot do that, so they believed neither in the US, taking every gossip as true. And they're supposed to be the 'professionals'. Btw, the last straw was when the more popular of them started a smear campaign to insult everyone who dared asking questions about ROP. He and his group of 'professional' friends all commented in unison about ROP being fantastic, calling the audience a bunch of ist and phobic. At some point someone with a little channel asked them if they were payed by Amazon... they acted all outraged, called for legal actions (southern italian style: screams, all agitated in front of the camera, red faces). ...well, less than a month after ROP ended, guess who was on Italy Prime tv with a program about commenting films? There's corruption everywhere. People sell themselves for 5 dollars. It's pathetic! That's why when you find just ONE person who doesn't give a f* on internet, and gives you his real opinions, you listen to him. Not because you agree with everything he says, but because you know you can trust that voice. MSM do not understand that. They think that people will trust their brand, but it's not like that anymore. Time has changed because people figured out credentials can be bought.

Not exactly the most progressive role for a black person to win it for.

Yes, because if there was one thing that audiences have been crying out for it's an all-female rejigging of a popular superhero franchise, let's face it, all female reboots have really ruled lately, superhero movies are going from strength to strength right now and if there is one thing the fan base enjoys it's seeing canon ignored in the genres they enjoy.

They're hoping if they lower the bar to the middle of Earth's core that the new generation (s) won't know what a good movie even is any longer, kind of like the modern state of popular music

I've just checked out some of the reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. All of the critics (even the legacy media critics; even The Guardian critics) agree that Madame Web is an absolute pile of manure. If you read the audience reviews (average score seems strangely high) it would appear that some of those who spent their hard earned cash (or not?) on actually seeing the movie experienced some kind of life changing event which deeply moved their souls and left them feeling a sense of wonder and joy. I used to think that I could not trust the critics scores (they were all bought and paid for), but should rather rely on the audience scores. Now, curiously, it seems that the critics (or many of them) are calling out rubbish when they see it (even if it ticks the right woke boxes), but that paid for [by the studios?] bots are skewing audience scores to such an extent that the scores are now meaningless.

Its just that, what they are making now is so bad, that they need so many bots to counter the real reviews from real people, that its becoming more and more obvious. But even 10 years ago you could scroll through imdb reviews and find a bunch of 10/10 and 9/10 reviews for recent big studio releases, that are all worded suspiciously similar, with the same key words and sentence structure. Which is indicative of computer generated text. Now with generative AI its also way easier to generate endless variants of the same sentence.

I guess we have to watch how long it takes for the shareholders to sue these managers into oblivion.

I see your point when I watched a movie ad that only talked.about how great the actor was not even mentioning the subject matter of the movie

Coming from "The New York Times"... you can't expect something to take seriously 😂😂

yeah like expecting Rolling Stone's articles to be unbiased and impartial.

@@stanedgie5910 Yeah!! Nailed it with your description 🤣🤣

I just hit the subscribe button. Those were some of the most humble words I’ve ever heard spoken by a KZread content creator. You’re right about the Drinker. But being able to say what you said is so hard to find in others these days. Everyone wants to control the conversation, the narrative (that should be the word of the year for 2023), but noone wants to shut up, listen, and, in turn, perhaps improve what they put out to the world. So I might not have tuned in daily before, but due to your modesty, your willingness to know you have faults and improve on them, I’ll enter a conversation with you any time.

Now, in my mind is Steven Seagal against Space Ice :)))

Yep. I blame them too. With the following; THANK YOU 😊

Such a perfect sum up, thank you

So they're going to blame two guys on KZread for theaters being completely empty and people asking for refunds

I blame/congratulate _myself_ for being _so_ fed up with all of their race swapping (among other things).

TheCelluloidAlchemist: You may not turm shit into gold! Not ever!

It’s oxymoronic/hyper hypocritical for Hollywood executives sitting on their high horse, looking down at us…..then run to mommy and cry “these 2 plebeians won’t let us play!”

Jesse, so refreshing to hear your comments about ascribing any lesser performance on your side as being due to the quality of your content and a need to improve, rather than pulling a victim card. Keep up the great work!

Thank you! I’ll always take accountability and keep seeking improvement every day

Thank you and your very good and more importantly humble and grounded and full of common sense. Keep up the great content.

Hollywood is unable to take ownership of their mistakes

What’s ridiculous is The NY Times own review of Madamw Web is scathing.

They tell us they hate us, they insult us, they tell us not to see their trashy movies, then they blame us when they fail. It’s beyond the pale. I’m now at a point where I ignore all their content for the foreseeable future and just watch old re runs. Also cancelling most of my streaming services.

Your best ever, Jesse! 🤩🤩 Deeply insightful, showing the very respect you encourage in the film industry and its adjuncts (reviewers etc.)

Wonderful review and commentary, you earned my sub! Ironically the best way for Hollywood to de-fang You Tuber reviews is to just make good movies.

The only thing that baffles me these days is why entertainment companies don't seem to have any interest in making money. We've been telling them what's wrong with their product for 10 years, now. You can't keep telling your customers, "we're gonna TELL you what you want" instead of giving them what they want and expect folks to buy your stuff.

It doesn’t make you beg the question, it makes you ask the question.

"Rey Star Wars" really made me chuckle. Great video!

Are you bummed that THE VOICE was soundly rejected?

No one likes being treated like an idiot that needs to be corrected like a 3 year-old. I can't remember the last time I saw a new movie. Also, the Critical Drinker may be crass and bitter sounding, his points are well reasoned and valid. His evaluations of Disney especially were spot-on. By the way, your evaluation of yourself was humble and honorable. Keep up your excellent insights!

How arrogant. NYT not mentioning Rageaholic, Ryan Kinel, WDW Pro, B&W Sports Culture Casino, and dozen other free thinkers.

Not surprising, they'd blame every one and every thing but themselves.

The only people they can blame for not supporting their agenda is their target audience, which aren't the existing fans.

Great video Jesse! Keep it up mate, your awesome thought-provoking content will get you to the top in no time!

The Drinker and Nerdrotic are just pointing out what most people are thinking. Some people just don't like that.

You’ll reach that next level soon enough, your quality is on par with them. Wishing you all the best!

Someone always has to be blamed. Used to be a public servant. Even when nobody is to blame, somebody will be blamed.

Right on. Thanks for sharing.

is THIS why the IMDb boards were closed? studios seem to be afraid as hell of filmgoers uniting against them. the ghostbusters 2016 flop scared them.
