Sincere question, why do you think everyone hates Nostalgia Critic's The Wall so so much? I watched it, and yes it is somewhat stupid and juvenile, but no more than many many other Nostalgia Critic videos. Is it because people love the movie The Wall? I thought the consensus re that movie is that it's an interesting and creative, but also self indulgent and flawed. The people who really love it seem to be in the minority. Plus, Nostalgia Critic never came off to me like he hated The Wall, just that he was bored by it and found it pretentious. Which, frankly, I can understand. Is it because the internet's just sick of the nostalgia critic? Is this just belated backlash to the channel awesome scandals? Honestly, if anyone has answers, let me know. I saw Folding Ideas and Anthony Fantano's reviews, and there just seems to be so much anger toward this video. I get that the video's stupid, I just can't imagine getting angry about it. At this point the internet's put 10000% more energy into being mad about NC's The Wall than NC put into making The Wall. (If anyone's interested, here's my take on Pink Floyd's The Wall from when I saw it a few years ago: there's a couple very affecting scenes with disturbing imagery, primarily the "Goodbye Blue Sky" scene, and some genuinely powerful anti-war commentary. However there's also a lot of parts of the film that feel dark nihilistic for the sake of being dark and nihilistic, and much of the political commentary didn't really cohere for me (rock audiences are fascist for some reason?). It's a good look into the head of a very depressed person, but since the whole movie is set inside the main character's head, the movie ends up immersing the audience in really dark themes/imagery without ever providing enough context for the audience to truly understand that darkness.)

They usually don't appreciate older foreign masterpieces, so I think that would be frustrating.

Salò is one of my favorite films of all time. It’s meant to leave you emotionally and physically numb. It’s a statement on the commercialization, exploitation, and hatred of the human body, sexuality, and human freedom. It’s brilliant how Pasolini manipulates the expectations of the subjects. The shots on human nakedness or sexual activities are static or shot from a distance, with long takes, completely de-humanizing the act or mere idea of showing sex-in essence, making sex unsexy. That’s just one of many aspects in the film that deserves interpretation. It’s a masterpiece!

I noticed the creaking gate sound is even in Bennie and Joon. You hear a portion of it at the start when Benny opens their mailbox. I bought & rewatched the film a few years ago for my personal collection. 🥰💖 Benny and Joon has stood the test of time for me. Lots of wonderful actors are in it.

oh man I was literally a single minute behind you on commenting this

I think it's a little myopic to suggest that Salo is "one note" in its criticism of fascism. The core of the movie isn't "fascism bad" but rather a slow, painful, but meditative deconstruction of the facets of fascism's modus operandi. There are many things that the film comments on, but one that's overlooked but seemingly inexorable from the movie's intent is its deconstruction and satire of fascism's gaudy spectacle and theatricality. The whole exercise of the fascists in charge is essentially a theatrical production, a play that only they are in on and filled to the brim with spectacle and amusement. Think of the wedding with the ornate costumes, the "rules" of the house, the various "roles" that are played by both the captors and the victims. It's not unlike the theatrical ventures of the fascistic spectacle of rallies and speeches. Yet what Salo does is to combine the degradation and torture of human will and spirit which fascism inevitably ends in with this gaudy, flamboyant spectacle. It is a meeting in the middle of the concentration camp and the youth summer camps, the Wehrmacht with the paraders, the bullet with the torch, etc. To Salo, these aspects of fascism, since they serve the same purpose ideology, are one in the same, thus a synthesis is a natural outcome at the end of fascism (keep in mind, the film is set at the tail end of the fascist regime in Italy, set in the Salo republic, the last bastion of fascist Italy after the invasion and side-flipping on the allied southern provinces). Additionally, the sexual violence is also combined with the subtextual sexuality of the fascistic ethos with its rigid gender roles, its placement of high value on fertility and procreation, the sexual adoration of the dear leader and the high ranking officials of the fascistic machine. To Salo, death and sex are two sides of the same ideological coin and serve the same bitter end: to justify and perpetuate a poisonous ideology which places weak above strong, pure above impure, and "us" above "them". This is of course just one aspect of the movie. The film explores many aspects of the fascistic ethos very in depth. Yet the film never hammers you over the head with these critiques. There's a subtly to it. The shit eating scenes, for example, have been seen by many critics as representative of the mass production of factory food under high-modernism, with fascism being the ideology which takes high-modernism to its logical, most extreme and absurd end. Thus under the absurdity of high modernism and its rigid factorial systems of production and growth for production and growth's sake, the difference between nourishment and shit becomes negligible. Consumption and regurgitation become again two sides of the same ideological coin. It's a much smarter film than a lot of people let on, and its reputation as shocking and exploitative have ruined it to a certain extent, at least in the eyes of its reputation with the general filmic public. But regardless of the historical and current cultural context surrounding the film, the film as *pure text* is rich in detail, subversion and meaning and lends itself well to many fascinating readings. JK IT'S ACTUALLY JUST JUST POOPY DOODY FUNNY SHITTIES. HAHAHA YOU THOUGHT THERE WAS A DEEPER MEANING IN THE POO-POO FEAST?!

From the information available it could easily be said this was less a criticism and more a sexual fantasy for the guy. Puts a big spin on what you can get out of the subject matter. Very interesting rabbit hole to dive down and it'd be interesting to hear your thoughts with that in mind.

For the spotify of this episode you accidentally uploaded the midsommar episode with this episodes name.

Nice!

I really wish y'all could've gotten MistaGG on this. Also I love Flushed Away. I feel personally attacked.

HE DID THE INTRO!!

it was very stink wonder what Charles styles will think about it

The sound effect that bothers me the most is the generic children laughing one, because it always reminds me of the Diddy Kong Racing intro, and some movies use it in serious emotional reunion scenes

It's kind of sad seeing people like Ralph, who has proven many times he loves cinema, not have familiarity with this director. He is not ''some italian guy'', but Pier Paolo Pasolini, a heavyweight of cinema and bloody legend if you will. It just shows how problematic the exposure to almost exclusively english language cinema is in america.

The narration was also my biggest problem with Ad Astra. There’s literally a scene where he’s in a rocket on his way to Neptune and his narration says “I’m on my way to Neptune” ...LIKE, DUDE, WE KNOW Other than that I really liked it. The set-pieces were pretty fantastic, and I really liked the subtle world-building. I almost want to edit the narration out of the movie just to see how things would play out without it.

I think the hammer scene was a middle finger to the ChangetheChannel movement dressed with quasi black mirror "but what if too much phone" fluff

I heard about Salo through Jonathan Davis of Korn when he did a “what’s in my bag” video and this was one of the movies he picked and I became curious and Wikipedia the movie.

Nice !

How can one refer to himself as a movie director, film enthusiast and refer to Pasolini as a "some Italian guy" ? Ralph should feel ashamed.

You know how many directors are there? You can't know everything.

The Prince of Egypt, from three directors who brought us Brave, Bee Movie, and Mars Needs Moms

Saló has been one of my favourite films since I’ve watched it. It’s a bit scary tho when Sardonicast recommends something and I’ve actually watched it for once, and it just happens to be the film about the literal Nazi rape mansion!!

I agree with Ralph that if Ad Astra was re-edited to take out a lot of voice-over and some scenes it could potentially be a good movie.

You guys need to talk about "The Joker" I really would like to hear your guy's view on the 2019 take of DC's good movie. And it has been a very long time DC put out a really good movie this year.

My #1 most hated sound effect is that goddamn wolf snarl. Every single time a wolf is on screen in a tv show, movie, or game, they play the barking growl. Even if it makes no sense. I just heard it in Genndy Tartakovsky's Primal and was immediately taken out. It's just overused enough to be redundant and not enough to be ironic. The bear growl is used a lot too but obviously not as much

I heavily associate the 'door creak' with Morrowind, so that's all I think about whenever i hear it.

I FUCKING SCREAMED AND THREW MY PHONE WHEN ADAM PLAYED THAT INTRO

the king of comedy its so fucking great

Alex, the reason why some background characters weren't as good as acting it's because they weren't actors, the director picked up people off the street and told them to be in his movie. Fun fact: He got murdered shortly after the movie, they ran him over with a car several times and crushed his genitals. Til this day, the case is unsolved

God damn it I fucking love this podcast

Mister Metokur did a superb video series on the Nostaglia Critic and his associates. Well worth a watch if you want the lore on how we ended up with... this.

1:07:48 There I am, Gary! There I am! Thanks, dudes!

Ralph does the intro this time

You guys should watch the 1970 film “The Conformist” directed by Bernardo Bertolucci, it follows a man who works for a fascist government.

I had to read the entire 120 day of sodom book for a class a few years back. glad i read it, but lost all sex drive for a few weeks cause i couldn't get it out of my head.

Thank You For Oh Oh Stinky. Very informative.

A sound effect that’s been driving me crazy since I was a kid has been this “semi truck approaching and passing by” kind of. Thing. That’s in like. Anything that has a semi truck in it. 😭😭😭😭

oh god you brave bois saw Salò.
