So I was raised in Hawaii. And let me tell you, Hawaiians come in every skin color there is. There are still pure blooded Hawaiians, but they are VERY rare to come by, and extremely few and far between compared to those who have mixed blood. Hawaiians are a proud race, and they are free to identify as "Hawaiian" no matter how they look, as long as they have Hawaiian blood. They can look white (Caucasian), Dark skinned, Asian, and who knows what else. These people who are complaining about the character of Nani being cast by a lighter skinned Hawaiian person is completely ridiculous, and is obviously being spearheaded by people who have zero idea of what they are talking about. That is completely different from people who were born and raised in, or just moved to Hawaii. Those people have no right to call themselves Hawaiian. Without Hawaiian blood, you are not Hawaiian. But from what I understand, that is not the situation with the actress here.

One of the many sad things about the Witcher is that in trying to prop up Ciri, us fans are like "....she was already kinda badass and important!" Something the showrunners would know if they cared about the source material.

The witcher debacle is quite astounding. They had beloved characters, a big fanbase, a lead actor who loves the whole witcher universe and is perfect for the part, a detailed plot blueprint (via the books) and a previously made good visual adaptation (via the games). It should be impossible to fuck up.

I actually think Clooney who was unfortunately the wrong choice for Batman's film career shouldn't be written off completely. His career suffered in the end, if it is the end for a few reasons. One he became world famous and a big marquee star when most actors were beginning to approach the peak of their careers. He was over forty years old when his role in ER as Doug Ross was on its way to be the most popular TV characters of all time. Tom jokes about the housewives fawning over him only. But I think people forget Clooney if you were a straight guy or in college then like me and my pals, the ultimate Chad for a little while. He was already rich, had a Harrison Ford, Bruce Wilis or Kevin Costner like American everyman persona, was from from the west. Also of course he was laying pipe left and right, lol. It helped that right out of the gate he chose to make his more established big screen debut as a psychotic bank robber who was connected to a character from Pulp Fiction played by John Travolta in a fantastic Vampire action horror conedy. I remember walking out of From Dusk Till Dawn exhausted and exhilarated at the same time and telling people George The Handyman from Facts of Life was officially now the man! Many people probably didn't think Clooney could pull that role off in the previews and turned out to be very wrong. He was intense, funny , a bastard but not so much that you didn't want him to come out alive. I actually was excited as a film fan to see what Clooney was gonna do next and I have to say The Peacemaker is a very underrated action film followup which George Clooney did with Nicole Kidman and should be revisited as not only one of Clooney's best films. But also the type of filmmaking you don't see anymore with the male dominated action hero who doesn't play second fiddle to a Mary Sue female lead. Although litle It also just happened to be directed by a talented female named Mimi Leder who I think after following that movie up with the disappointing yet well intentioned Armageddon competitor Deep Impact seemed to be abandoned by Hollywood when it underperformed. After that Clooney's career kind of phased into a series of ups and downs where he was given the opportunity to do great work with top talented directors like The Coen Bros, Jason Reitman, Wolfgang Peterson (The Perfect Storm), Alexander Payne, David O Russell, He was praised for roles like in Brother Where Out Thou, Up ain't The Air, The Descendants, Syriana, Michael Clayton, Out of Sight, The Thin Red Line, small roles in memorable movies like Gravity. As far as Oceans Eleven goes even Frank Sinatra fans say that Clooney and Soderbergh elevated the material of the orignal movie to something much greater and exciting! Clooney is said to be compared to old fashioned movie stars like Cary Grant because of his height, subtlety and Charisma. I can't say he hasn't been a victim of his own hubris, politics, and maybe reputation for being a perfectionist especially when directing but consider the results most of the time! I do think what made people fall out of favor the most with Clooney was his obsession with vanity projects like The American, The Good German, Good Night and Good Luck, The Men Who Stare At Goats. I can appreciate how he was trying to tell important stories, some bizzare and others historical commentaries on the human condition or whatever. But either way I think Tom is unfairly writing Clooney 's career off and Critical Drinker being a fan of strong, masculine characters like the ones in his novels should appreciate alot of the work Clooney has done on film. I think Tom though is being spiteful even despite Clooney's contributions and connection with his beloved South Park. But most of this panel I gather doesn't see alot of stuff Clooney has done outside of the fantasy and horror like everything else especially Tom.

It's funny watching the people who cry about representation and how wrong it is to deny them their light........ go on to destroy other cultures stories and tell them to get over it if they don't like it.

Psycho 2 is a phenomenally underrated sequel. I saw it as a kid around 2000 era expecting it to be awful and was blown away by it (apparently, that was the reaction most critics had when it released.) The premise is that 20 years after the first movie Norman Bates is released from incarceration by reason of sanity (he pleaded insanity after the first movie and since he is apparently cured and no longer insane he can be released) and begins trying to build a new life. He gets a job at a local restaurant and enters into a romantic relationship with one of the waitresses there. Then people start getting murdered with the same MO as Bates. Lila from the first movie (the sister of the woman who gets it in the infamous shower scene) is convinced Bates hasn't changed and begins stalking him to prove he's still a kiIIer. All the characters from the first movie are played by the same actors and the movie does a fantastic job of keeping the audience guessing about Bates. You don't know whether he's the one committing the murders or whether someone is framing him, and the reveal at the end as to what is actually going on almost rivals that of the original movie. Highly recommend to anyone who likes the original. 👍

Hot take, Jack Nicholson is a better Joker than Heath Ledger Ledger is damn near perfect, but Nicholson brought that horrifying yet campy mania that the Joker has to the front. If Noland had let Ledger have things like joy buzzers and chatter teeth maybe he'd have edged ahead with how he acted with them, but even then Nicholson's Joker has the randomness to him that shines directly from the comics. This isn't a critique of Ledger, but I think the restrictions Noland set of having the Dark Knight be set in a more realistic world definitely hurt his performance in a way that was never his fault.

I was 11 or 12 when Batman came out in 1989 and the hype was crazy. It was a 15 at the cinema but it was the first movie ever to get a 12 certificate when it was released on video. They said that they knew it wasn’t really a 15 rated movie but it couldn’t be PG so they created the 12 rating for it and other movies. Interestingly Toby Maguire’s first outing as Spider-Man was the first movie to get a 12A rating. Must be something to do with superhero movies.

Why couldn't all these guys remember George Clooney in From Dusk Till Dawn? This was in regards to Clooney being called not threatening in TV and movies when they talked about him being a bad batman which I agree with but he was being directed that way by the director who apologized for it.

Casting for Cleopatra. The supreme irony is that the director, as a Persian woman, probably looks more like Cleopatra than EITHER Elizabeth Taylor or Adele James.

RE: Cleopatra, the Ptolemies, and Egyptian Culture; the sad thing IMO about the uproar over Cleopatra is that we have very limited direct knowledge of the Ptolemaic family tree after Ptolemy Sotor took over Egypt as his reward for campaigning with Alexander the Great. What we do know, though, is that Egypt had gone through several dynastic regimes which were likewise *Not Egyptian,* such as the Kushites or the Hyksos. Furthermore -- we do know that Cleopatra, like many dynastic persons before her (regardless of sex) joined with local cults which *WERE* undoubtably and anciently Egyptian in nature. Egypt had a long and complicated history with female rulers, over the thousands of years it was a going concern. Consequently, it also had an elaborate set of inter-related cults that formalized rules for inheritance, ascendancy to the royal family, inbreeding, and much more. So yeah. I'm not convinced that Cleopatra was 100% Greek, because we cannot say with certainty who all her grandmothers were; some of them might have been Kushites, but its far more likely they were Egyptians.

^^ Geez, this is a long and complicated historical discussion. In its most ancient form, the Egyptian cultural myth that formed the kernel of its society involved the competition between 2 groups who claimed the title of kings. These are, of course, Upper and Lower Egypt; the Symbol for Unity which eventually emerged is the double crown, the "Pschent".

Also, RE: Local Egyptian Cults; for lack of better or more concise terms, Egypt's various cults had been conducting a type of breeding program not only on sacred cattle or animals, but also on the various families who were vying for dynastic control. If anything, I think it is safe to assume that the reason there was a parallel between the sacred animals and the nobles was for the sake of public demonstration and performance. That's why the nobles were often celebrants and certainly participants with the various rituals, celebrations and feasts that occurred in every civic region and town. Even more interesting to me, each town would likely have a regional variation on the standard Egyptian pantheon of deities. Historian Guy de la Bedoyere has a KZread channel, and has published several excellent videos as an overview of various hot topics in Egyptology, Cleopatra among them. I am certainly not a professional nor a published author on the topic, but I do understand why what I've typed above is easily demonstrated. And by gumbo, I also hasten to add that Ptolemy Sotor is credited with having the wisdom to reintroduce some of the discarded Egyptian deities of his own time, which marked the beginning of the Greco-Egyptian cultural period, at least as far as the pantheon of regional deities goes. See also: Serapis; the Apis Bulls.

The Cathedral scene in Batman was inspired by 'Hunchback Of Notre Dame,' but seeing Joker and Vicki go up the stairs is similar to the scenes in 'Vertigo' when Scottie and Madeleine go up the bell tower. The shot when Joker drops Vicki's shoe down the stairwell and you see it fall is an obvious homage to 'Vertigo.'

Turns out the Real Open Bar is just the term for the mini-fridge off-screen that Drinker just can't be arsed to close. Hence why its called Open Bar.

George Clooney is Mr SUAVE but he admitted he f**ked up BATMAN AND ROBIN. Arnie was hilarious and Uma Thurman too ! Too much campiness from the script and the Director

1:07:20 You think they would skip straight to Lady of the Lake's ending? That would be bold, but truth be told the creators of this show take only the things they like and piss on everything else... Skipping almost 3 books worth of content is moronic on the one hand, but on the other it would help if Netflix was to pull the plug on this disaster.

Always good to watch a video with the Critical Drinker and company

Batman was a 12 in UK AZ, I doubt you saw it in a cinema in 89. Batman was actually the film they created the 12 certificate for! I actually watched it in Florida on holiday, three months before it hit the UK. My friends were so jealous. 89, best year ever! 37:22

8:40 What kid watches a film and thinks, "Was her skin really that white?" Won't kids watch her documentary and think, "Was Cleopatra really that black?"

Patrick Stewart playing Mr Freeze makes a kind of sense when you factor in that George Sanders played the character in the Adam West TV show.

Big difference with Elizabeth Taylor movie. They didn't call their's a documentary, did they?

2:32:55 if you want to see the Drinker almost commit very understandable and justified Self Die after hearing the... *shudders*, phrase known as "Kiss of Respect."

From Dusk until Dawn has a great performance by Clooney. But yeah can’t think of much else

I thought the time jump element of season 1 was brilliant. I didn't see it coming until it did and it gave me a reason to watch the show a 2nd time. Season 2 just seemed to lack any planning or ingenuity and it's a shame to feel we are being deprived of much deeper source material. I have to wonder whether Cavil is getting a reputation of being unbankable, with how many projects he's had to work away from, even if for good reasons.

Regarding fear of unicorns... ... read the short story "Unicorn Variations" by Roger Zelany. The Drinker will simply love the unicorn in the story.

Braveheart has to be a contender for most historically inaccurate film ever really does William Wallace and the battle of Stirling bridge a massive disservice

@CriticalDrinkerAfterHours Philip K. Dick's Counter-Clock World is a recommend, and as much as I would like to see a TV adaptation I can't imagine it would completely escape becoming a vehicle for current year ideologies. Certain practicalities of the Hobart Phase come across as a bit daft by contemporary standards but overall, the story remains a powerful and prescient piece of pulp sci-fi.

F Paul Chato. After he made his comment that the U.S. “has normalized mass murder,” I wouldn’t give that man the time of day, let alone watch his channel or any other he’s part of. It’s a shame he had to become a regular over at Midnight’s Edge, where he made that offensive remark, to absolutely no backlash.

OMG I just looked up a clip for Silverado and it is a movie I've been trying to find the name to Forever I saw it when I was a kid but could never quite remember the name so I was unable to find it until today when you mentioned it thank you so much I will definitely be looking it up and watching that movie tonight.

Excellent Vlog The 1989 Batman and Returns are my favourite Batman movies. To me that is Gotham in the movies. I like the Nolan Batman movies but it transforms itself from Gotham in movie 1 to New York in movie 3. I grew up with my grandparents and would watch western movies with my granddad on a Saturday afternoon. When Silverado came out 1985 went the cinema with my friends and loved that movie. We were all 15 years old in 1985. Keep up the great work 👍👍👍

You want dark and brutal? No, not a story of my life. I want to see a well done live action version of Invincible. Sam Elliott as Omni Man. He's already got the mustache down.

The 1989 Batman movie was so overhyped, when we got to see it 6-months later in Japan, I was disappointed. And it cost a LOT of money for me to see it back then.
