when you get to be older, you will look back at people in their 20s and they will look like kids to you. it happens as you age.
im watching that TLJ video wow right out the gate this guy is really aggressive and angry. ugh and the tone is so condescending. he's giving me a disclaimer saying "by watching this review you agree to" jfc calm the fuck down dude. watch a Mauler video and the guy is extremely calm and considered.
...3 minutes into it, i can't sit through this. he's entirely focused on the meta reception. right now there is a series of mocking fake fan criticisms shitting on Empire Strikes Back. it is like looking at a message board comment section where someone shits on OT films instead of talking about the subject at hand. what is with all the distractions? i thought this video was on TLJ. 3 minutes in and i have see nothing at all on the film itself. just talk about reception, toxic fans, etc. no discussion of lighting or camerawork. it's hyper focused on the fandom and meta reception.
i skipped around a bit and it's all unfocused, it is a takedown of common criticisms rather than an original take on the film. it is not analysis of the text but criticism of the reception. im not interested in whether or not it is hypocritical to think people should have to breathe in outer space in one movie but not another. that doesn't tell me why TLJ is good.
i see why people like this like TLJ tho, they are so focused on the narratives. Rian was this way as well. personally, i find it a turn off, and that it goes against the original spirit.
