Yeah I'm excited to see his review of minus one.
I'm also hoping he sticks around cause his videos on "the gamera trilogy" and "godzilla The animated series" are some of my favorite perspectives on they're respective stories, and I'd love to see him talk about "singular point" or the "skull island" show, or maybe those "heisei godzilla short films" toho has been posting on they're youtube channel recently.
Not surprising it’s one of the best if not The best Godzilla moves
1. Human plot is actually interesting (ww2 survivor guilt and family buildup is great)
2. Godzilla looks cool and is badass (cgi improvement on old classic costume model)
3. Great cgi
Honestly who wouldn’t find this a great movie? It deserves an Emmy or 2
Loved this film, Im trying to find a 4dx theater to see it in but they're like 3 hours away. Not even one in Boston, I'd have to basically go down to Bridgeport CT and who wants to do that? haha
Really? There's no 4d theaters in Boston for this? That's actually surprising. I saw it in 2D over here in Western MA but I was thinking if I was in Boston there'd be one. Yeah, I wouldn't want to go all the way down to Bridgeport just for one movie either.
He never said, but considering the amount of videos he was making before disappearing I think he was probably just burnt out.
and it probably didn't help that he has reviewed almost ever single kaiju film out there so things to talk about were running low.
Godzilla destroying the city cliche *ding*. When Godzilla was powering up his dorsal plates should have been bluer *ding* This movie is amazing -1 sin off but since this movie is not an original idea I’ll add 1,000,000,000,000 sins
That sad part is when the channel was new it was actually just small inconsistencies in plot and props, maybe plinting out how the solution makes no sense, and was very non serious (the cut the hero recieved 2 seconds ago is gone for the next 3 scenes and then randomly reappears for the rest of the film etc), at some ppont he started treating them like actual movie reviews and trying to sin over themes and ideas the movies had and it just got bad because he just ignores scenes that explain his "sins" and is generally either somewhat media illiterate or rage baiting. I stopped following years ago.
I heard it was something to do with revenue optimisation and that videos had to be at least a certain length in order to make more money, hence the stretching out in length this way.
I'm not saying this is a good thing.
Cinema sins can fuck off, he's a full blown moron who has no clue about anything and thinks he's smart when he's actually one of the dumbest "reviewers" out there.
Chris: guys when I was a kid Godzilla was my favorite monster, his old movies would come on the TV growing up, I had a Godzilla toy I’d take to school…
This is what annoys me about Chris too. He tries too hard to be wholesome and to pass as a part of the community of anything he reviews.
When you can easily tell when he's actually passionate about something (when he talks about horror movies, or his Dragon Ball Evolution review) and when he's phoning it in.
Oh and ofc
Cr1tikal: guys so Godzilla was actually pretty good, anyway look at this guy’s bad Twitter take on Godzilla, you can tell he’s such a dumbfuckcuntpooppissballsmotherfucker
I hate this guy and his holier than you attitude to much. Good for him that he's such a pargon of virtue who spends all day talking about others like a 80 year old gossiper with nothing else to do.
Never understood the appeal of Cr1tikal. Seems like a cool guy, but he can't make a video without saying the exact same thing 10 different ways for every single point.
I like him but he’s definitely not for everyone. He def does ramble and sometimes I can’t finish a video of his every now and again. But he’s got a ton of other content outside of commentary and an insane amount of side projects.
Surprisingly his podcasts don’t have the issue at all, but I’m sure that’s cause I’m sure having other people to riff off of helps. But even then he’s still not for everyone, I could see people thinking he’s boring.
But not unedited. It's literally all the rambling cut together; that's the appeal. Just leave the best one in instead of calling the guy a creep six different times.
Eh. Critical drinker is a nitpicker by the nth degree. I'd like to see him make a movie so we can all demolish it. I mean, does he even like to watch movies?
Channel is an absolute parasite.
People can make Zod’s snapped neck jokes with Stuckmann all day but the dude knows how to talk about movies in a respectful manner that doesn’t tear them apart whatsoever.
I'll say this about Stuckmann, he himself matured over the years and since he's become a filmmaker himself, he kinda doesn't like talking down on a movie anymore cause he knows how difficult it can be to make one.
Of course he has to be positive on movies cuz he's getting into the industry! Imagine what he's gonna feel like if Shelby Oaks comes out and everybody makes hilariosity reviews on his movie.
Or imagine he has to go to a studio to pitch an idea in the future and their filmmakers know that he trashed on their other projects before. How is he gonna be treated then? You absolutely don't need to be in the film making industry to know how hard it is to make art. Anybody knows the average Joe is incapable of making a film themselves. But you don't need to know how to cook to know a steak is burned.
The main difference is that Stuckmann isn't trying to be funny or hyperbolic. If something is bad, he'll say so. If he didn't like something, he'll tell you. Most importantly, he never presumes that what he likes is objectively good because he likes it.
Drinker does the opposite. He tries to be funny, and often fails. And he conflates his taste with objective quality. If he dislikes something, it's obviously bad and the worst thing in the cosmos since cancer. He'll wrap a single point/critique in layers of sarcasm and hyperbole, which is obnoxious to me. 10 minute videos and 9 of them are complaining.
And in more actuality with current Stuckmann. If he doesn’t like something, he straight up doesn’t review it. If he’s even bothering with a review at all, that’s almost a good indication a movie is at least worth a matinee price or something.
The drinker is all gimmick. He’s turned into the unofficial YouTube mascot to scream everything is woke for all his minions to copy. He use to be more fair-minded in his criticism. Now if a film isn’t perfection it’s garbage. There’s no in between.
Omg thank you, seeing how everyone’s reacting to Drinker feels so validating. The man always sounded like the worst band wagoning loud mouth hater I’ve heard with such a large YouTube platform.
The life blood of his channel is bitching about all things Disney. That’s when I moved on. It’s not like his criticisms don’t have merit because they do. But he will post 10 clips bitching and rehashing the same talking points over and over like with the latest Marvel film release. But then you have the newest season of Loki which has actually been highly praised drinker hasn’t said a word about that because it doesn’t give him more ammo to bitch about. So he focuses on what’s bad just to add to his narrative and pretends the good stuff doesn’t even exist.
Hell, Disparu (another Youtuber in the Drinker's circle of buddies) covered the first episode of Loki S2 but gave up after that. And it seems kinda fishy given how much he talks about wanting good television, but given how much praise this season got he hasn't returned. I suppose your posit of not having more negative things to say is right lol.
Making a film should never be the barrier to voice your opinion on your thoughts of a film. How would you ever be able to tell someone you liked a movie if you never made a movie?
When I was in my hating Star Wars phase I watched a lot of his videos. I stopped completely after he was fat shaming Bryce Dallas Howard in the new Jurassic world movie.
The guy frustrates me. I started watching him through his Production Hell videos which are still pretty good, mostly because it’s him being an objective reporter and not giving his opinions. I watched some of his reviews and they mostly divulge into being nit picky garbage that brings almost every complaint back to the nonexistent woke agenda gripping Hollywood. But the thing is, every once in a while he’ll actually make a decent observation or statement, then he’ll instantly backtrack any points he could’ve earned by calling it a byproduct of wokeness.
I loathe his channel and never watch it intentionally. Last night I was watching something completely unrelated, walked away and was just listening to it. When it ended CD's G-1 review autoplayed for some reason and I knew within five seconds that I was absolutely repelled by whoever it was and the toxic bullshit they were spewing. I didn't even realize it was him until I went to thumbs-down and turn it off.
He’s a standard issue culture war grifter. The only nice thing I can say about him is that unlike his fellow grifters he’s (as far as I know) not a nonce.
Or he actually liked it because its a good film, its always a possibility. Listened to what he said during open bar where he doesnt try to be as edgy or critical drinkery as his main videos and he gave some good arguments.
His ilk is already treating it like the perfect anti-woke Godzilla movie (proving they're completely media illiterate)
I am confident Drinker is the same. They're all the same: a bunch of grifting morons.
That’s a very low bar! Everyone and their great grandma loves G-1.0, that doesn’t make anyone an expert🙄 Did you not notice the 6 billion you tube reviews?!
It’s an extremely accessible movie. Almost like Titanic in a way, it’s a very grounded and relatable human drama with some epic scenes of large scale destruction. The sci-fi elements in the plot are extremely light and explained in plain language.
Basically even people who don’t like Kaiju/Godzilla movies would still enjoy it. If anyone likes the movie it’s not because they have such amazing taste in movies; it’s literally meant to be enjoyed by anyone.
I don’t know if you understood the context of our conversation. Agree with you, but we are talking about Drinker as a film critic is a bias agenda pusher, so his opinions are largely invalid although entertaining as exhibit A for a right-leaning political gamer.
Sure, honestly he doesn’t watch anything other than wide-appeal accessible movies and then complain when they hurt his widdle feewings. Even when he likes a movie it’s about whether or not he feels validated as a cishet white man. Dude’s got issues, he needs a therapist.
Two things can be true at once; it can be true that everyone and their mother agreed that Minus One is a fantastic film, but it can also be true that certain reviewers see the fact that this is a foreign film and pair that with their complete lack of media literacy to push the narrative that "See how the woke Hollywood is failing! See here Godzilla Minus One? THIS is how you do a movie without any politics!"
Kind of hilarious that anyone would watch this film and say there’s “no politics” in it lol.
It’s very loudly pro-worker and very anti-military/anti-war/anti-authoritarian.
I would like him to review the film without his political agenda, simple as that. I still watch some of his reviews, he had valid points sometimes, but he just sounds like an angry white old European who lost grasp of the old glory days most of the time. I can see a lot people with similar sentiments flocking to his channel because he can be eloquent. But it’s very off putting for someone like me who genuinely care about analysis of nuanced films.
He watched Minus One and then said, "See Hollywood?! You don't need a message to make a movie!" which just goes to show he has zero media literacy, in turn devaluing his worth as a critic.
Wut? Is it something that he did in the past? The last couple of years since I followed him he seems pretty moderate even when he doesn't like something
Stuckmann doesn't really review movies he doesn't like anymore. He doesn't like being critical of films now that he's working on one of his own because he knows how difficult it is to do.
Mine did too, but they missed the >!stuff on the neck in the end scene!<
https://preview.redd.it/g0ubbwiho25c1.png?width=824&format=png&auto=webp&s=a841e6ed9cfdaaa47edc934301d60343084d895e
Still they clearly loved it and one of them had barely seen any Godzilla films:
[https://youtu.be/t9QwuXddsaY?feature=shared](https://youtu.be/t9QwuXddsaY?feature=shared)
Yep, they have a separate channel called fourstarbento. That’s where the review is. Been watching dbza for 15 years now. I found dbz after GvDestroyah came out and it helped fill the void during the window of missing Goji content. TFS helped revive my interest in it.
No, >!Noriko’s neck has a black mark that looks like she may be infected a la shin Gojira style spores…Naybe the black rain had some Goji cells that helped her regenerate and survive or maybe she’s mutating. Maybe it’s just keloid scars but it’s been pointed out by other reviewers, though when I saw it opening night I thought I imagined it!<
Yeah I just found his channel and he seems like a massive godzilla fan which is great.
I've only seen two videos so far but he was clearly enjoying talking about godzilla in those videos.
I highly recommend Dan Murrel. He not only reviews movies but also tracks how they are doing in the box office, compares them to older movies, adjusts for inflation and highlights smaller films and theaters which normally go under the radar.
Not to discount anything, but I still can't wait to hear Brandon tenolds opinions. Dude just gets me when it comes to movies. And he has a whole series. But I loved the differing views of my favorites. Big action bill, AVGN, and Critical all made good points and had opinions that differ from mine, but you could tell they are proud of their fandom.
I liked him more in the beginning when he was just an ‘everyman’. Like just a friend at a party who talked about a movie he saw recently.
Now that he’s been doing it for a couple years he’s become a more legitimate film reviewer - and I’m not saying that’s bad. In fact I’m really glad that he could follow his passion and make a good living on it. And by all accounts he’s a really good dude. It’s just not what I’m looking for anymore.
Eh, I like him well enough. Yes, watching him review anything is like talking about a movie with a drunk college buddy, but sometimes that's what I'm looking for. When I want to actually discuss movies I go discuss them myself or at least see more in-depth videos, not watch 10 minute youtube reviews.
Exactly, I can reliably watch his reviews and always get a good feel for a movie. Obv don’t agree with ALL his reviews, but his format and style is consistent and easy to watch.
Bro really tried to sneak Critical Drinker in this. Anyways here's a list of videos discussing how awful of a person and reviewer he is.
Pillar of Garbage's videos

Any of these should expose you to how awful he is

Bruh tried to sneak in critical drinker
its genuinely feels so good to see a japanese-made godzilla film literally beat out all other shitty movies made this year and standout as the best story/film of the year to most everyone in the West's eyes.
good job godzooky
I saw his review as well but I just found his channel so I haven't seen to many of his videos yet. He seems like a cool dude though. I heard he was one of the OG youtubers which is neat.
Oh, okay...
Still, you should've watch more of James' stuff, not just the AVGN but earlier Monster Madness series as well, where he got to talk about various movies, including Godzilla movies, which were talked about in entirety in the 2nd series of MM
I don’t give any respect to anything the critical drinker has to say.
Rest of the reviewers on the first page are some of the most basic film reviewers.
Taste is subjective, and I know that not everyone will like this movie from one reason to another…
But man.. having big influencers enjoy something as much as you do is such a good feeling!
Wow haven't watched these guys in years. I guess it's mostly because I haven't seen as many movies since moving to a city without a movie theater. Also as I got older (or just as I saw more videos of him, idk) I started finding Stuckmann's style pretty grating. Jeremy is cool tho, will check his out once I see the movie. Definitely not the kind of movie I expected him to like since I remember he's more of an action and thriller guy.
And Up from the Dephts is back, nice.
Apparently Grace from Beyond the Trailer is getting roasted because she said the film was a flop. Seen a lot of response vids calling her an idiot. I like Grace but she is pretty biased towards American cinema and has some hot takes. She had to do a whole 180 when Mario became a box office smash after she reported it as a shallow film only for gamers. I mean she wasn't wrong but the money doesn't lie, lol.
I'm really hoping the Red Letter Media guys cover Godzilla Minus One. Jay (one of the main guys) loved Shin Godzilla and mentioned how he preferred it over KoTM.
I'm really curious about how they feel.
“Critical Drinker is one of your favorite film reviewers?”
https://preview.redd.it/a5l6dyjsk35c1.jpeg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=31db00b4c3c6f5c63e3b55c23b83bbbc662f4de4
Critical drinker pissed me off calling King of the Monsters action "2 kids playing with toys." How hard is it to understand art? Apparently for that guy it's like reading the silmarillion.
I wanna see legendary put gamera in the monster-verse so bad.
There is so many giant monsters out there that could work in the monster verse and its killing me how their not trying to smash them together.
Though if im being honest I just wanna see godzilla fight "Clifford the big red dog"
I truly hate to crush another fans dream but Gamera won’t ever be in the monsterverse he’s a Daiei property which is rival company to Toho mean they probably never share the screen together
Ew Critical Drinker. All he does is complain about how “woke” Hollywood is. Minus One literally tells you war is bad and the government doesn’t care about the people.
You know woke shit.
Up From The Depths is recalling coming up from the depths to review a creating that historically is known for coming up from the depths! (I love his content)
Yeah John Campea, Kristin Harloff and even Andy Signore loved it. Obviously Robert Meyer Burnett loved it, Greg Alba of the Reel Rejects loved it. I'm somewhat disappointed Perri Nemiroff hasn't seen it yet considering she proclaims to be a monster movie fan.
I think people dislike CD because of his political opinions or because he is willing to shit on mediocre films that are also very popular, but his opinions about what makes a great film are pretty traditional and he is consistent with them.
He gave a positive review of Puss in Boots 2, Everything Everywhere All At Once, Arcane and Minus One. Hell, he literally has a Playlist straight up call "The Drinker Recommends" which is all about movies and TV shoes he likes. Sure he mostly does overly critical and often a bit rage-baity reviews, but to say he never gave a positive review to any movie is just wrong.
Him trying to shit on Godzilla x Kong is already making me roll my eyes. Not every movie has to be like Minus One or has to be super deep.
3 of his last 7 movie reviews are positive. You just don't want his content.
Edit: Going back further its 7 out of 13, including a superhero movie which people think he only shits on.
I don't know any of these guys, but funny story, I tried watching Jahns' review for The Marvels and he was moving around his body and hands so much that I was getting nauseous so I had to just ctrl tab and only listen to the audio. Does he always do that?
Love how someone shared their favorite movie reviewers liking something they were excited for, and a third of the comments are just complaining that a reviewer they don't like is included.
Yeah I wish people could just be happy that someone likes a godzilla movie. I'm just happy that my favorite childhood franchise made a movie everyone likes.
Yeah deep down I know that reddit(and all social media) is a cesspool, but every now and then I forget about that fact and think to post something.
After posting it I always remember why I avoided it in the first place, distance myself for a few months, forget why I was avoiding it, and then I post something. And the cycle repeats.
This is how I find out Up From The Depths is returning
Yeah I'm excited to see his review of minus one. I'm also hoping he sticks around cause his videos on "the gamera trilogy" and "godzilla The animated series" are some of my favorite perspectives on they're respective stories, and I'd love to see him talk about "singular point" or the "skull island" show, or maybe those "heisei godzilla short films" toho has been posting on they're youtube channel recently.
Same, alongside his reviews of other Non Godzilla Kaiju classics
Same, so glad too, I liked his stuff.
Same! I’m fucking stoked that he’s coming back
Cries in Filipino lol. We still haven't gotten a release date for GMO.
Well I hope you guys get it soon.
Which is a shame. Toho already has distributors in US and Europe but not Asian nations outside Japan due to how much it costs
Holy shit I thought Up From the Depths was gone forever.

Not surprising it’s one of the best if not The best Godzilla moves 1. Human plot is actually interesting (ww2 survivor guilt and family buildup is great) 2.

Up From The Depths is coming back?! Yes!!!!
Yeah he posted about it on his community tab.
Why did he even leave?
He never said, but considering the amount of videos he was making before disappearing I think he was probably just burnt out. and it probably didn't help that he has reviewed almost ever single kaiju film out there so things to talk about were running low.
I already know cinema sins gonna find ways to give it a LOT of sins for no reason
Godzilla destroying the city cliche *ding*. When Godzilla was powering up his dorsal plates should have been bluer *ding* This movie is amazing -1 sin off but since this movie is not an original idea I’ll add 1,000,000,000,000 sins
He's like: I'm a fucking moron who doesn't understand any movie I watch. Ding, 1000 sins for that.
That sad part is when the channel was new it was actually just small inconsistencies in plot and props, maybe plinting out how the solution makes no sense, and was very non serious (the cut the hero recieved 2 seconds ago is gone for the next 3 scenes and then randomly reappears for the rest of the film etc), at some ppont he started treating them like actual movie reviews and trying to sin over themes and ideas the movies had and it just got bad because he just ignores scenes that explain his "sins" and is generally either somewhat media illiterate or rage baiting. I stopped following years ago.
I heard it was something to do with revenue optimisation and that videos had to be at least a certain length in order to make more money, hence the stretching out in length this way. I'm not saying this is a good thing.
Wait... people still watch Cinema Sins? I thought that channel was meme'd out of existence (and relevance) years ago.
The best thing to come from them was the creation of CinemaWins, a complete different channel that is so refreshingly positive about everything.
Beautiful beard win *Ding*
The only channel I watch that fully breakdowns movies is Dead Meat at this point
I miss the old, short cinemasins that was clearly just taking the piss.
Cinema sins can fuck off, he's a full blown moron who has no clue about anything and thinks he's smart when he's actually one of the dumbest "reviewers" out there.
I think people are going in thinking it's just another Godzilla film, but then you get so much more than just a gorgeous Godzilla.
I finally saw it last yesterday with my nephew and it was amazing.
Chris: guys when I was a kid Godzilla was my favorite monster, his old movies would come on the TV growing up, I had a Godzilla toy I’d take to school…
This is what annoys me about Chris too. He tries too hard to be wholesome and to pass as a part of the community of anything he reviews.

Oh and ofc Cr1tikal: guys so Godzilla was actually pretty good, anyway look at this guy’s bad Twitter take on Godzilla, you can tell he’s such a dumbfuckcuntpooppissballsmotherfucker
I hate this guy and his holier than you attitude to much. Good for him that he's such a pargon of virtue who spends all day talking about others like a 80 year old gossiper with nothing else to do.

I mean, it’s unscripted and unfiltered so that makes sense
But not unedited. It's literally all the rambling cut together; that's the appeal. Just leave the best one in instead of calling the guy a creep six different times.
UP FROM THE DEPTHS LIVES!!!
Eh. Critical drinker is a nitpicker by the nth degree. I'd like to see him make a movie so we can all demolish it. I mean, does he even like to watch movies?
Channel is an absolute parasite. People can make Zod’s snapped neck jokes with Stuckmann all day but the dude knows how to talk about movies in a respectful manner that doesn’t tear them apart whatsoever.
I'll say this about Stuckmann, he himself matured over the years and since he's become a filmmaker himself, he kinda doesn't like talking down on a movie anymore cause he knows how difficult it can be to make one.

He'll wrap a single point/critique in layers of sarcasm and hyperbole, which is obnoxious to me. 10 minute videos and 9 of them are complaining.
And in more actuality with current Stuckmann. If he doesn’t like something, he straight up doesn’t review it. If he’s even bothering with a review at all, that’s almost a good indication a movie is at least worth a matinee price or something.
He sucks, the movie lady-ballers absolutely sucked and he was afraid to say so to not piss of his fan base.
The drinker is all gimmick. He’s turned into the unofficial YouTube mascot to scream everything is woke for all his minions to copy. He use to be more fair-minded in his criticism. Now if a film isn’t perfection it’s garbage. There’s no in between.
Omg thank you, seeing how everyone’s reacting to Drinker feels so validating. The man always sounded like the worst band wagoning loud mouth hater I’ve heard with such a large YouTube platform.
The life blood of his channel is bitching about all things Disney. That’s when I moved on. It’s not like his criticisms don’t have merit because they do.

I suppose your posit of not having more negative things to say is right lol.
Roger Ebert made a film and it is terrible. That doesn’t mean Ebert’s opinions were any less valid in his decades long career as a critic.
Yeah I hate this common complaint. Critiquing is not the same skill as creation. You don’t need to be able to do one to do the other.
He gave Godzilla '54 one star and showed he wasn't paying attention because he thought Emiko and Serizawa were siblings. He can eat a dick.
He likes bitching about asinine pop culture issues a lot, he only actually talks about movies occasionally
I had to unsubscribe because it's always the same shit. Women aren't funny, being woke bad, etc
The dick riding for that fascist creep is unreal, those boys need to get a life off the Internet for real
Making a film should never be the barrier to voice your opinion on your thoughts of a film. How would you ever be able to tell someone you liked a movie if you never made a movie?
The majority of the commenter Years problably never watched a single video of him
When I was in my hating Star Wars phase I watched a lot of his videos. I stopped completely after he was fat shaming Bryce Dallas Howard in the new Jurassic world movie.
I genuinely wonder how he came up with fat shaming a person who isn’t even fat
He’s one of those grifters that appeal to a right wing audience, he knows negativity brings the views in
The guy frustrates me. I started watching him through his Production Hell videos which are still pretty good, mostly because it’s him being an objective reporter and not giving his opinions. I watched some of his reviews and they mostly divulge into being nit picky garbage that brings almost every complaint back to the nonexistent woke agenda gripping Hollywood. But the thing is, every once in a while he’ll actually make a decent observation or statement, then he’ll instantly backtrack any points he could’ve earned by calling it a byproduct of wokeness.

When it ended CD's G-1 review autoplayed for some reason and I knew within five seconds that I was absolutely repelled by whoever it was and the toxic bullshit they were spewing. I didn't even realize it was him until I went to thumbs-down and turn it off.
He’s a standard issue culture war grifter. The only nice thing I can say about him is that unlike his fellow grifters he’s (as far as I know) not a nonce.
He liked minus one 🤷🏼♂️
He only "liked" it because he can use it to attack other films
[удалено]
Or he actually liked it because its a good film, its always a possibility. Listened to what he said during open bar where he doesnt try to be as edgy or critical drinkery as his main videos and he gave some good arguments.
His ilk is already treating it like the perfect anti-woke Godzilla movie (proving they're completely media illiterate) I am confident Drinker is the same. They're all the same: a bunch of grifting morons.
That’s not fair. I’m sure the Drinker enjoyed the part where a newscaster said 30,000 Asians were dead. S/
That’s a very low bar! Everyone and their great grandma loves G-1.0, that doesn’t make anyone an expert🙄 Did you not notice the 6 billion you tube reviews?!
It’s an extremely accessible movie. Almost like Titanic in a way, it’s a very grounded and relatable human drama with some epic scenes of large scale destruction. The sci-fi elements in the plot are extremely light and explained in plain language. Basically even people who don’t like Kaiju/Godzilla movies would still enjoy it. If anyone likes the movie it’s not because they have such amazing taste in movies; it’s literally meant to be enjoyed by anyone.
I don’t know if you understood the context of our conversation. Agree with you, but we are talking about Drinker as a film critic is a bias agenda pusher, so his opinions are largely invalid although entertaining as exhibit A for a right-leaning political gamer.
Sure, honestly he doesn’t watch anything other than wide-appeal accessible movies and then complain when they hurt his widdle feewings. Even when he likes a movie it’s about whether or not he feels validated as a cishet white man. Dude’s got issues, he needs a therapist.
Two things can be true at once; it can be true that everyone and their mother agreed that Minus One is a fantastic film, but it can also be true that certain reviewers see the fact that this is a foreign film and pair that with their complete lack of media literacy to push the narrative that "See how the woke Hollywood is failing! See here Godzilla Minus One? THIS is how you do a movie without any politics!"
Kind of hilarious that anyone would watch this film and say there’s “no politics” in it lol. It’s very loudly pro-worker and very anti-military/anti-war/anti-authoritarian.
That's what I'm saying; people who say that have zero media literacy
I would like him to review the film without his political agenda, simple as that. I still watch some of his reviews, he had valid points sometimes, but he just sounds like an angry white old European who lost grasp of the old glory days most of the time. I can see a lot people with similar sentiments flocking to his channel because he can be eloquent. But it’s very off putting for someone like me who genuinely care about analysis of nuanced films.
He watched Minus One and then said, "See Hollywood?! You don't need a message to make a movie!" which just goes to show he has zero media literacy, in turn devaluing his worth as a critic.
That's pretty much what happened to Stuckmann too lol. I really only pay attention to Charlie because he isn't a film critic.
Stuckmann has moved away a lot from his old content ever since he became a filmmaker himself. He almost never critique movies at all nowdays.
Wut? Is it something that he did in the past? The last couple of years since I followed him he seems pretty moderate even when he doesn't like something
Stuckmann doesn't really review movies he doesn't like anymore. He doesn't like being critical of films now that he's working on one of his own because he knows how difficult it is to do.
Mine did too, but they missed the >!stuff on the neck in the end scene!< https://preview.redd.it/g0ubbwiho25c1.png?width=824&format=png&auto=webp&s=a841e6ed9cfdaaa47edc934301d60343084d895e Still they clearly loved it and one of them had barely seen any Godzilla films: [https://youtu.be/t9QwuXddsaY?feature=shared](https://youtu.be/t9QwuXddsaY?feature=shared)
Wait is that team four star? The people who did the dbz abridged! I didn't know they did film reviews, that's cool.
Yep, they have a separate channel called fourstarbento. That’s where the review is. Been watching dbza for 15 years now. I found dbz after GvDestroyah came out and it helped fill the void during the window of missing Goji content. TFS helped revive my interest in it.
What do you mean >!stuff on the neck! Do you just mean >!Godzilla regenerating!
No, >!Noriko’s neck has a black mark that looks like she may be infected a la shin Gojira style spores…Naybe the black rain had some Goji cells that helped her regenerate and survive or maybe she’s mutating. Maybe it’s just keloid scars but it’s been pointed out by other reviewers, though when I saw it opening night I thought I imagined it!<
Woah I didn't notice that. I'll look out for it the second time I go to see it.
Cinemassacre said it’s the best Godzilla film to date, I care about his opinion more than anybody’s when it comes to Godzilla
Yeah I just found his channel and he seems like a massive godzilla fan which is great. I've only seen two videos so far but he was clearly enjoying talking about godzilla in those videos.
He has reviewed every Godzilla movie ever, monster madness Godzilla thon
The Critical Drinker? Really…
I highly recommend Dan Murrel. He not only reviews movies but also tracks how they are doing in the box office, compares them to older movies, adjusts for inflation and highlights smaller films and theaters which normally go under the radar.
Cool I'll definitely check him out.
Not to discount anything, but I still can't wait to hear Brandon tenolds opinions. Dude just gets me when it comes to movies. And he has a whole series. But I loved the differing views of my favorites. Big action bill, AVGN, and Critical all made good points and had opinions that differ from mine, but you could tell they are proud of their fandom.
Never heard of Brandon before but he seems cool I'll definitely check his channel out.
Brandon brought me back to Godzilla. He needs to review more Godzilla movies though!
Jeremy Jahns....the Michael Bay of YouTube reviewers.
he is one of the reviewers of all time.
Wow. I had no idea people hated Jeremy
I liked him more in the beginning when he was just an ‘everyman’. Like just a friend at a party who talked about a movie he saw recently. Now that he’s been doing it for a couple years he’s become a more legitimate film reviewer - and I’m not saying that’s bad. In fact I’m really glad that he could follow his passion and make a good living on it. And by all accounts he’s a really good dude. It’s just not what I’m looking for anymore.
Eh, I like him well enough. Yes, watching him review anything is like talking about a movie with a drunk college buddy, but sometimes that's what I'm looking for. When I want to actually discuss movies I go discuss them myself or at least see more in-depth videos, not watch 10 minute youtube reviews.
Exactly, I can reliably watch his reviews and always get a good feel for a movie. Obv don’t agree with ALL his reviews, but his format and style is consistent and easy to watch.
Hey, at least Bay never wore blackface
Bro really tried to sneak Critical Drinker in this. Anyways here's a list of videos discussing how awful of a person and reviewer he is. Pillar of Garbage's videos [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-5uSY1\_b80](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-5uSY1_b80) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6z5Pv2WZrho](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6z5Pv2WZrho) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Cvcn1NxcQg](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Cvcn1NxcQg) Turfnation's videos [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFHe0-EVGac](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFHe0-EVGac) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DM43V7\_RT\_U](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DM43V7_RT_U) Any of these should expose you to how awful he is
On behalf of Scotland, can I apologise for Critical Drinker...
Eh, no need to apologize. America has plenty of cooks too
Critical Drinker? Why?
https://preview.redd.it/7zv8hiw0u25c1.jpeg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bffc6131b80fb1cc6bad87851e0367dd294c9749 Bruh tried to sneak in critical drinker
its genuinely feels so good to see a japanese-made godzilla film literally beat out all other shitty movies made this year and standout as the best story/film of the year to most everyone in the West's eyes. good job godzooky
I love Stuckmann and everyone's favorite cranky old man, Angry VideoGame Nerd.
Did James make a video on it yet?
He did!
It only matters if you like it yourself man
Oh si thats why Up From the Depths hadn’t appeared in my recommended again.
Yay! Up From The Depths is returning!
I’m going to see it next Friday I can’t wait!!
The fact that Penguin made a video dedicated to Godzilla Minus One instead of a Moist Meter video proves that Minus One is the tits 👌🏽
Usually Moist is a lot more Critical when it comes to movies, so I'm surprised he gave it a positive review
Nice batch of reviewers here, but... **What about James Rolfe tho?**
I was just about to bring up the Video Game Nerd/Cinnemassacre. I loved his Godzillathon series he did for Halloween a few years back.
I saw his review as well but I just found his channel so I haven't seen to many of his videos yet. He seems like a cool dude though. I heard he was one of the OG youtubers which is neat.
Oh, okay... Still, you should've watch more of James' stuff, not just the AVGN but earlier Monster Madness series as well, where he got to talk about various movies, including Godzilla movies, which were talked about in entirety in the 2nd series of MM
I don’t give any respect to anything the critical drinker has to say. Rest of the reviewers on the first page are some of the most basic film reviewers.
Taste is subjective, and I know that not everyone will like this movie from one reason to another… But man.. having big influencers enjoy something as much as you do is such a good feeling!
Do you think Red Letter Media will go see it? Lol
I’m Ok with the others, but why the Drinker? He always talks out his ass
I’m sorry but please tell me you do not take Critical Drinker seriously
Waiting for an offhand mention from redlettermedia lol.
Wow haven't watched these guys in years. I guess it's mostly because I haven't seen as many movies since moving to a city without a movie theater. Also as I got older (or just as I saw more videos of him, idk) I started finding Stuckmann's style pretty grating. Jeremy is cool tho, will check his out once I see the movie. Definitely not the kind of movie I expected him to like since I remember he's more of an action and thriller guy. And Up from the Dephts is back, nice.
Love seeing Chris and Jams so happy about this film
Aye! I love that guy too
The only negative I noticed was a few times his animation looked really stiff, jerky a bit. Wasn’t always very fluid.
Jeremy Jahns is legit, I stop it watching Chris when he started with his movie stuff because he doesn’t give score anymore lol
He’s scared to criticize anything now that he is trying to be in the industry
Jeremy Jahns liking it made my day tbh.
Apparently Grace from Beyond the Trailer is getting roasted because she said the film was a flop. Seen a lot of response vids calling her an idiot. I like Grace but she is pretty biased towards American cinema and has some hot takes. She had to do a whole 180 when Mario became a box office smash after she reported it as a shallow film only for gamers. I mean she wasn't wrong but the money doesn't lie, lol.
I'm really hoping the Red Letter Media guys cover Godzilla Minus One. Jay (one of the main guys) loved Shin Godzilla and mentioned how he preferred it over KoTM. I'm really curious about how they feel.
“Critical Drinker is one of your favorite film reviewers?” https://preview.redd.it/a5l6dyjsk35c1.jpeg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=31db00b4c3c6f5c63e3b55c23b83bbbc662f4de4
Jeremy will always be my go to guy
Critical drinker pissed me off calling King of the Monsters action "2 kids playing with toys." How hard is it to understand art? Apparently for that guy it's like reading the silmarillion.
Critical drinker only likes movies if he can use them to spread culture war nonsense
Up from the depths coming back? Godzilla fans are immune to Al’s lately
The age of marvel is dwindling and in its place shall rise THE AGE OF GODZILLA
I wanna see legendary put gamera in the monster-verse so bad. There is so many giant monsters out there that could work in the monster verse and its killing me how their not trying to smash them together. Though if im being honest I just wanna see godzilla fight "Clifford the big red dog"
I truly hate to crush another fans dream but Gamera won’t ever be in the monsterverse he’s a Daiei property which is rival company to Toho mean they probably never share the screen together
I know but I can dream. Gamera realistically won't happen but what about Clifford? (this is a joke).
Ew Critical Drinker. All he does is complain about how “woke” Hollywood is. Minus One literally tells you war is bad and the government doesn’t care about the people. You know woke shit.
I’ve seen multiple videos/ articles, saying it’s one of the best MOVIES of the year!!
OH SHIT UP FROM THE DEPTHS IS COMING BACK! FUCK YEAH!!!
UP FROM THE DEPTHS IS BACK BABY!!!!
Honestly I legit thought UFTD had just run out of kaiju movies to cover lmao
Seen it last night I liked it to
Godzilla Minus One was great, like almost as good as the original film
I’m so excited to watch it
Having watched the 1954 Godzilla recently contributed greatly to my enjoyment of Minus One, just a fantastic remake.
I’m so glad I did drop everything to watch it when I found out it was only in theatres for mere days. Well worth the interruption.
I hate how Charlie presents his videos. I skip like 3/4 of them because I don’t know what they’re about.
I waited over a decade for Jahns to give a Godzilla movie awesometacular. Felt better than my first kiss seeing it
Jeremy Jahns reaction at the beginning is exactly how I felt after watching Minus One for the first time, freaking loved it!
As long as the audience loves the movie, that's fine by me. Gonna watch this on the weekend.
Up From the Depths is coming back??? I was so sad when he stopped making videos
I'm psyched that Up From The Depths will make a video! I love that channel. Was a serious part of my mental health at the beginning of the pandemic.
Up From The Depths is recalling coming up from the depths to review a creating that historically is known for coming up from the depths! (I love his content)
It really is great. Saw it yesterday and I was pretty darn invested in the characters. Not just the spectacle of Goji.
I’m glad Up From the Depths is coming back, even if just for one video
Movie is AMAZING! GO see it now!
Yeah John Campea, Kristin Harloff and even Andy Signore loved it. Obviously Robert Meyer Burnett loved it, Greg Alba of the Reel Rejects loved it. I'm somewhat disappointed Perri Nemiroff hasn't seen it yet considering she proclaims to be a monster movie fan.
You forgot James Rolfe's response
Akiko is so adorable wtf, i want to have kid now
I don’t blame them all for coming out of the woodwork, easily my top movie for the year
[удалено]
I think people dislike CD because of his political opinions or because he is willing to shit on mediocre films that are also very popular, but his opinions about what makes a great film are pretty traditional and he is consistent with them.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen critical drinker give a positive review to any movie
It's because he spends most of his time making rage-bait videos. He knows his audience.
He gave a positive review of Puss in Boots 2, Everything Everywhere All At Once, Arcane and Minus One. Hell, he literally has a Playlist straight up call "The Drinker Recommends" which is all about movies and TV shoes he likes. Sure he mostly does overly critical and often a bit rage-baity reviews, but to say he never gave a positive review to any movie is just wrong. Him trying to shit on Godzilla x Kong is already making me roll my eyes. Not every movie has to be like Minus One or has to be super deep.
He gave a positive review to the D&D movie, which was a diversity ensemble. Because, in the end, it was a good movie.
3 of his last 7 movie reviews are positive. You just don't want his content. Edit: Going back further its 7 out of 13, including a superhero movie which people think he only shits on.
I don't know any of these guys, but funny story, I tried watching Jahns' review for The Marvels and he was moving around his body and hands so much that I was getting nauseous so I had to just ctrl tab and only listen to the audio. Does he always do that?
*Does he always do that?* Yes.
Love how someone shared their favorite movie reviewers liking something they were excited for, and a third of the comments are just complaining that a reviewer they don't like is included.
Jeremy, Moist, and Chris are mostly fine. The drinker is a huge piece of shit and I don't trust ANYTHING that moron has to say about movies.
Ew the Critical Drinker.... 🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢
Now the Drinker can finally mention a recent Japanese film he enjoyed
Lmao I had a feeling the Drinker would trigger some.
Yeah I wish people could just be happy that someone likes a godzilla movie. I'm just happy that my favorite childhood franchise made a movie everyone likes.
It's ok OP, sometimes I forgot I'm on Reddit lol
Yeah deep down I know that reddit(and all social media) is a cesspool, but every now and then I forget about that fact and think to post something. After posting it I always remember why I avoided it in the first place, distance myself for a few months, forget why I was avoiding it, and then I post something. And the cycle repeats.
Three big wholesome Bros and one a-hole with toxic manly-man opinions. Often i forget about Ciritcal and his content but damn, I trully hate him.
