I stopped watching CinemaSins when they started doing things like dinging movies for being confusing when the guys were just purposely leaving out information the movies presented. Like "What in the world is going on? How did they get to that location all of a sudden?" when literally the very previous scene in the movie would be the characters traveling to said location. They're either incredibly dumb or disingenuous, neither of which appeals to me.

I don't know what's so surprising... As far as I'm concerned, Cinemasins are just plain crude humor while Cinemawins really sounds like he's cocksucking these creators sometimes. Heck I might even make the argument that Cinemasins are just brainless jokes, insulting it may be, it's still just a stupid trashing compared to Cinemawins who *maybe* really does just honestly praising these movies while ignoring it's flaws or bad points (sure you can set those things aside if you don't care, but it sure make you sounds like corporate shill). I doesn't hate either ones, but both are decent at best.

[@jesusstaccato8448]

It's dumb to say that he "ignores" the movie's flaws when the entire concept of the channel is to list the positive aspects of often-underappreciated movies. As the channel matured he focused less on maligned movies and more on popular content, but the premise of the channel continues to be about concentrating on the good. And even then he still lists the occasional flaw.

[@shira_yone]

1 2 well fine, I'm just saying how much of a shill that made them sounds and that's it. On the other hand, Cinemasins are based on the entire concept of nitpicking any aspect of a movie as much as possible but it didn't stopped them from removing a sin everytime a movie nailed something so well. That's where I'll go back to my initial stance, Cinemasins are Jackasses and Cinemawins can really *really* sounds like blind fangirling. Both are decent, neither is better than the other.

@person person Problem is people like me realised that strategy and then next step was. Click "don't recommend this channel".

[@djdm2603]

I agree with most of this. I remember when Cinema Sins actually made short and concise videos in which they actually pointed out badly used Cliches and continuity errors, bad shots + the running jokes of logos, storm trooper aim and the Prometheus school of running away from things which add a little bit of humor. It poked a bit of fun at films but never implied the film was bad because of it. I think the channel could be made better if the "sins section" of the videos were 5 minutes or so like they used to be, then maybe they could do a very short overall review (like 2 mins) where they actually credit the film fairly and at the end have the 3(ish) minutes of mashups that they do now. this would improve the quality of the sins, prevent damage to the artists who did a good job, and still let them just about hit the 10 minute mark for the revenue. Also there is a channel called Cinema Wins which is really enjoyable and also gets into a bit of philosophy and meaning behind the films as well as pointing out cool moments. Another channel that pokes fun at films in a good way is Editing is Everything. - just a few cool movie channels that I hadn't heard of until recently.

i dont really consider cinemasins much of a "criticism" channel. they don't really do much critique with their videos as much as they make jokes about small things that they were personally annoyed with. if people are watching these videos and taking them as legitimate media criticism then that's probably an issue and shouldnt be too hard to solve. personal insults aimed at individuals who worked on the movies is in poor taste and offhand "bashing" without point or meaning isnt very worthwhile in any context though.

[@TheLadyIntegra]

I kinda stopped taking CinemaSins seriously as a comedy channel, when they pointed out the unlikely timing of events in Thor Ragnarok as sins, when clearly they're intentionally set up jokes because the movie is a comedy. I think it was when Thor was chatting with the skeleton and its jaw drops off or something, they referred to that unlikely event as a sin and I was like "c'mon! So gag humor is a sin now?" I mean, I thought it was funny and it immediately clued me in to the type of movie I was going to be watching, and Thor's hilarious monologue with that skeleton, and the dumb gag of its jaw falling off, simply CAN'T be considered bad writing because it elicited exactly the effect that was intended - it tickled my funny bone, gave me a new perspective on the character of Thor and who he was going to be, tone-wise, in the movie. Most importantly, that gag told me immediately that this movie, unlike the previous Thor movies, would NOT be taking itself seriously at all - which is something that Ragnarok needed to establish IMMEDIATELY in order for the movie to work. The more I think about it actually, the more that silly cartoonish gag starts to seem like a stroke of writing genius xD And the CinemaSins review continues to point out further obvious comedic moments and gags as sins, which made me roll my eyes because how the hell is a supposed comedy channel, taking shots at a comedy movie from a literal perspective, ever supposed to hit home? CinemaSin's best content comes from valid criticisms that surprise you because you never thought of them and you agree, or because you already noticed the problem and you're stoked to see they did too. It does NOT come from nonsensically critiquing for the sake of critiquing.

Totally agree. Heard SO many people talking shit about a movie and the literal only thing they could bring up was "the cinema sins video", people that would probably have a totally different opinion otherwise. They point out some plot-holes in funny ways but A LOT of the sins are pretty much bullshit, just jokes that dont even adress a flaw but still add to the sin counter, or insults. I mean, I love watching some of their videos but "satire" does not really apply for some of the things they say. Even if it might not be their intention; it teaches people to nitpick movies rather than find constructive critizism

[@anirudhviswanathan3986]

Satire would imply that they would know the art of what they are criticising, which I am pretty sure they.... do not. At all.

[@paradoxar]

I'm sure they know quite a bit about movies, but literally all they say is "this dialogue is shit" or "this plot is shit" rather than give any form of improvements at all. I know that it's not their intention to give improvements, they just want to do "comedy" basically, but none of what they say justifies insulting individual people working on those movies that much. It could be a somewhat enjoyable format if they weren't as toxic as they currently are, but my biggest issue is how many people, who don't know much about film take it literally and become these annoying nitpickers as well

Real talk anybody watching cinemasins looking for a honest criticism about the quality of a movie just stop. Channel always leaned comedy nitpicks over critical flaws. Longer the videos met they would include more comedy. Cinemasins should not dictate if you watch a movie or not.

[@sophiefilo16]

If I watch a CinemaSins video for a movie I haven't seen, it is because I have no intention of seeing it anyway. I don't always agree with them. For instance, I think they were unnecessarily harsh with Shrek, a movie aimed at kids. However, I still enjoyed the video because it was entertaining and it gave me an interesting viewpoint about the movie. Watching CinemaSins these days is like watching a review of the movie. It's just their opinions, and that's all. If the name of the videos were changed to "Things I Didn't Like About ____", hardly anyone would be complaining. But it's called "Everything Wrong With ____", so people think the channel is trying to tell audiences what to think about the movie...

[@alexandresobreiramartins9461]

And it's called Everything Wrong With because that spells EWW. It's another joke. And I totally agree with you, I often watch CS videos of movies I'm sure are detestable (Kong Skull Island is a good example, the King Kong remake by Del Toro was already bad enough) and will never watch. But I also watch their videos for movies I loved (The VVitch is a good example) and I still laughed a lot and loved their video. Directors who get offended/feel threatened by them are snow flake imbeciles, as demonstrated vastly by the movies they make (I downloaded and watched Skull Island, then deleted it instantly, it's so terrible, the characters are so shallow and chicle, it's on Transformers level of bad).

[@a_real_one2000]

I was able to find some fun moments in kong skull island but felt sorry to watch talented actors given try to bring their mundane characters to life. Outside the kong scenes the movie fucking flawed. Cinemasins states before the video starts no movie is perfect. A person favorite film should be able to handle a being nitpicked.

[@RYFAMO]

+Alexandre Martins I don't think that offended director are "snow flake imbeciles". They are just witnessing, how months of their work is made seem bad in fornt of a large audience. I do understand their complaint, although criticism (good and bad) is part of the film industry. CinemaSins is always pointing out, what's bad in their eyes. But sometimes we forget, that every movie with it's plot, characters developments and actors caters a different audience. Most of these movies are just not worthy to watch (for me - in my opinion); you could even call them trash, but that doesn't mean they don't make money and that there are no people enjoying this kind of movie experience - even if it is forgettable. I still enjoy CinemaSins and their content. And I guess a part of their audience sees most flaws in some of their criticism or line of argument as I do as well as appreciates the jokes and where their "sins" are completely right. Still the film industry puts a lot of money and effort into making these movies. So let them complain.

The problem is, at least for me and seemingly a lot of other people as well, it fundamentally doesn't even work as humor. Humor has to make a certain kind of sense, it has to be relatable; for a channel like CinemaSins, the humor needs to be paired with a fair criticism -- which was the case for their earlier videos. Only then can I have that appropriate reaction of "Haha, yeah, they really did mess that up." Now they're deliberately making these excruciatingly construed pseudo-criticisms in order to *seem* clever and increase run-time. It's not fair criticism, it's not funny, it's outright obnoxious.

Occasionally, Cinema Sins' droll and smug banter accidentally grazes across an actual flaw, but most of the time, the videos are inept, unfunny, and disastrously incorrect. Almost every "sin" is no sin at all, and quite often is completely made up or wrong. When such confidence is wielded like a weapon, you better be able to back it up. And they can't. Their subscriber base is full of people in love with hatred and willful stupidity.

[@boooomerwang]

Michael Schaub exactly

[@mousekill82]

Sin 1 - Your comment came across droll and smug, almost grazing the actual flaw of CinemaSins. Ultimately just inept and disastrously incorrect. Sin 2 - Unless you have a list of "almost every sin" and reasoning to why it's incorrect, completely made up or wrong, you better sheath that confidence. Or at least back it up. And you can't. Sin 3 - To group an entire subscriber base as people in love with hatred and willful stupidity based on a joke channel is almost like saying the entirety of your comment proved to me you are pretentious, only muster surface-level comments (the fact that what you said can be boiled down to "Cin Sins is boring. Cin Sins is wrong. Cin Sins fans are stupid") and ultimately in need of some fun in your life. Comment Sin Counter - 3 but I'm going to say infinite Sentence - Opinions are like assholes.

[@clyde8759]

mousekill82 well played sir...lol.that was way better than my yes and no comment I erased after reading your comment.

[@jamyskis]

CinemaSins USED to be deliberately innocent and ironic. The "flaws" weren't meant to be flaws, but deliberate nitpicks that you can laugh about. At some point the tide turned though - probably the Star Wars prequel videos - and it became less about laughs and more about bandwagon hatred, perceived logic flaws and recycling running gags once too often. CinemaWins was set up as a kind of parody of CinemaSins, but I find that it's outgrown its insipiration by a fair margin (again, with the exception of CW's very poor Star Wars-bashing videos).

[@adisonnanet]

Three years later and my boy Filmento still consistent with the critiques he makes in this video: he talks about the movies themselfs, not about the people who wrote them. Very nice.

[@river7222]

Cinema Sins is well-marketed, viral clickbait in which the creator hides behind satire while taking mean-spirited cheap shots at movies, often getting things completely wrong. There are few merits to that product. That being said, Kong Skull Island was so, so bad.

@Mrs. Arthur Morgan You can like things that are objectively bad. I like Rise of Skywalker. But I can recognize bad writing and storytelling when I see it.

[@RocketAdriftGames]

Well put together and thoughtful video. I can agree that when they go too personal it can be kinda harsh. I personally like the videos that are longer because it reminds me of mystery science theatre. Not all the jokes are quality but it's more true to their brand of knit picking stupid details. I do think that they should maybe counter act their public perception of being very negative by maybe doing more praising of films they like. Their podcast does this well but it's not nearly as popular as their videos.

[@Advent3546]

Rocket Adrift Cartoons A highlight video of their podcast wouldn't be a bad idea at all. Imagine a series if video going through their Best Movies Tournament where the praise the hell out of stuff like Children of Men.

[@kevbirss7397]

Yeah but that isn't as funny or interesting as the nitpicking

[@CammieB520]

[@agonleed3841]

Rocket Adrift Cartoons you all...thosemthat are too sensitive....are dumb. if you specifically go to cinemasins for an actual critique, then YOU are the dumb one. Cinemasins is created for those who have ALREADY seen and maybe enjoyed the movie already. Like, seriously. And after every movie EVERYONE critiques it. EVERYONE! We pick all the things right and wrong with it. How it's believable or not. And usually talk with friends about. And some friends say more than the other. Some are funnier. And that's what cinemasins is about. Bitching about PEOPLE CHOOSING to watch comedy aimed critiques about a movie that should've been experienced first.....actually first....is dumb. Bitch to people. Not against Cinemasins. They pretty much let you know it contains spoilers. Know why? Most people, normal people, don't want to hear the full story and one sided opinions of a movie before they see it. They're basically saying, "🤔 Do you guys want to hear a funny, one-sided, nitpicking, opinionated critique on a movie BEFORE you watch it? Cause this contains all that and spoilers. I'm not responsible for your enjoyment. I just want to be funny." And whomever chooses the answer, "yes", Is the dumb one

[@jokehr3955]

I've watched cinemasins for probably a couple years now. Before this video, I never stopped to think whether or not it might sway my willingness to watch a movie because, most of the time, I used to watch their videos AFTER seeing the movie. Now, when I see far more youtube than cinema, I really appreciate a video like this to make me take a look at myself and what I'm doing. I especially appreciate how you keep this entire look at their channel in the sort of good taste you expect in return.

[@x340x]

yeah, actually sometimes i finally watch a movie a was postponing just so i can watch the cinemasins on that

[@BeatAroundtheBushRap]

Maybe you should form your own opinions and stop mindlessly following everyone you admire. If KZbin videos make you look at yourself and reflect on your actions...you are TOO INVESTED in the content. Simple and plain. I literally watch videos on every subject imaginable and whether I agree or not doesn’t matter. It’s all content I can watch and not watch at my leisure. Same for you. Stop using cinemasins to grow your channel...

[@IncoherentMoron]

wait, are you getting on this person's case for being able to critically assess and reflect upon the videos they watch do you think that people should be watching videos for the sake of watching videos

[@BeatAroundtheBushRap]

IncoherentMoron lol it’s KZbin not a seminar dude. You guys (internet heads) are too invested in content. Simply that. Just content. If THIS video above made you want to self reflect then you obviously need to find/do more with your life lol seriously

And The Wild Bean Appears the arguments theyre making is all about "cinemasins is all about humor and satire". How about no. A good example of good comedic humor and satire is screen junkies; just like what this video just said.

[@IonVortexx]

I watched cinemasins back in the day. It was funny and mostly pointed things wrong with the film. Then, one day i found myself cringy to thinks he said, and just found it insulting things and going beyond the movie and getting personal.

[@apanapandottir205]

Everyone knows it's just jokes. The problem is that they make up problems and edit out explainations. That's not funny. It's just lying.

[@RoRogers7]

They are NOT just jokes. Check out CinemaSins' creator's personal channel where he posts his own actual reviews which have the same dumb points he used in the cinema sins' videos

[@puckerings]

Think the sin is unfair? It was only a joke! Think the sin is fair? It was totally a real criticism! This is the real issue with the videos. With very rare exceptions, whether or not the sin is supposed to be a real sin or a joke sin is unclear. The unfair ones are just explained away later as being jokes.

[@puckerings]

It is unclear, because on the other channel where he does "real" movie reviews, HE USES MANY OF THE VERY SAME "SINS." Some of them are obvious, yes. But the fact that some of them are of the lap dance variety doesn't mean they all are.

[@MusOfficial323]

If you can't tell the difference between a joke sin (lapdance sin, etc.) and a genuine criticism, then you are for one, taking the channel way too seriously, or two, a fucking idiot with no common sense.

[@puckerings]

The lapdance sins are obvious. But many other sins that people defend as just being jokes (ie, ones that ignore the actual context of the film, or things that are explicitly explained in the film) are repeated in his "serious" criticism videos in his other channel. Which means they're not intended as jokes, he just doesn't pay attention.

[@icecool3135]

What is this accent are u finnish?

[@kuppikahvikeisari9120]

IceCool I was thinking the same thing!

[@Dreamy_Requiem]

i actually disagree on the subject of cinemasins saying that its satire as, other people have noted, many of the 'nitpicks' also show up in their serious before and after videos. which means that at least half of their 'eww' videos are serious. that makes it hard to tell if its serious or not : \\ also, to everyone who says that doesn't matter, IT DOES. people who see it as serious will just not watch the movie, meaning that the producers will lose viewers for the movie, which affects their ability to KEEP making movies. and then people who don't take it seriously (and are fans) get overly defensive when people criticize cinemasins. and that's not even taking into account that they're showing a great amount of the movie IN their videos, which means that people might just not watch it because they saw the footage in the video!!

[@DaggerPrince]

Some rich guy in hollywood should just hire a hitman on these two pieces of shits.

[@FooeyMcgooey]

Cinemasins nikpick on purpose because they're giving sins to a movie whether it makes sense or not.

[@seriouswithdaysoff]

I love CinemaSins. Their humor isn't for everyone and a lot of people do take them too seriously. I do try to only watch them on movies I've seen before or sometimes I'll watch one that I don't have too much interest in. And watching them has made me more aware of so much that goes on in movies. And I'm not stupid enough to think that ever sin is an actually flaw in the movie. But also I love watching CinemaWins on the same movies. It's really cool to see how something that can be consider technically wrong in a movie be what made it good.

[@mr.balls_cut6206]

The problem is that they cannot handle criticism, everytime someone gives constructive criticism they say it's a parody and get things wrong on purpose but when they get things right they are giving serious criticism.

[@mr.balls_cut6206]

@ZAP GAMERZ read my comment again,they use satire as an excuse when they get something wrong and say they get things wrong on purpose

This is an amazing video. I was interested from beginning to end and you backed up all points with sufficient evidence. Most videos on KZbin make you form an opinion and use schemes to make the viewers believe them, but you formed a clear and fair argument. KZbin needs more of this!

[@AdmiralFerret]

as a CinemaSins fan, I must agree they do seem to have opted for less actual plot holes and more roast-style comedy towards films. I still watch them, and personally, I find them pretty funny; but what keeps me watching aside from that, is the occasional rip on an actual plot hole or strange occurrence, etc. in the film itself.

Plot holes and strange occurances Like a movie having logos at the beginning

[@lugbzurg8987]

There are quite a few videos talking about the problems with CinemaSins. Apparently, it gets a lot more sinister and flat-out disingenuous than what this video covers.

[@Filmento]

Thank you all very much for watching! Let me know your views on CinemaSins and the matter.

[@keijijohnson9754]

Filmento Man, I am SO glad I didn’t see their Ghost in the Shell video when that first came out. What you’ve shown there was exactly what I feared their video to be: just them continuously and oh so harshly trash the film by saying all the annoying stuff a lot of other people have been whining and complains about instead of actually finishing something in the film that’s actually worth being counted as a “Sin.” I mean, that goes far from them just nitpicking anything, like what they’ve been doing recently. This was just pathetic. Their video I mean, not yours. And I’m glad that there are more and more people starting to seeing past the BS they’ve been spewing as of late, including the director of Kong: Skull Island himself.

[@chrisbrasel9049]

Here's my view on cinemasins, it does get to harsh sometimes but when something is good it takes sins off as let's be honest here him slamming the emoji movie will be great to see.

[@obinnaonyeije]

Chris Brasel Yes, the sin removals are one thing Filmento didn't mention. I don't blame him for it, but CinemaSins does it a pretty noticeable amount (when you move away from the blockbusters like Kong and GITS). It would have been worth pointing out.

[@alexandresobreiramartins9461]

But the GinS movie was terrible! And no, I'm not comparing it to the anime, it was just terrible as a completely standalone movie. Most things in it make no sense, starting with the Evil Corporation schlock, which was silly since Robocop (the first one), but we forgave it because it was the 80s. The characters are paper-thin, the plot is a ridiculous vengeance-turned-justice story, the scenes that reference to the anime are out of joint because they're only there to show they're copying the anime and not to be an organic part of the whole, the excessive CGI all over the city is only there to stress the movie's budget... And Scarlet Johansen is a terrible, terrible actress who should only play an emotionless Terminator.

[@alecsamberg1512]

I think you're creating a bit of a straw man argument when stating that Cinema Sins actually has any impact on revenue made by the movie industry. Your average moviegoer doesnt care about Cinema Sins (or even for that matter who the director is), they see a trailer they like or hear that it's good from a friend and go. The people that watch CInema Sins have already made their mind up on a movie long before a video comes out 2-3 months later. You can criticize them for what you view is lazy content but don't make them out to be something they're not. Also really, we're going to act like Rupert Sanders is some sort of victim here. Asshole cheated on his wife with a younger employee (that's the relationship, he was her boss) and should be immune to attacks from it?

I hadn't watched CS in some time, and was wondering why I started seeing videos giving flak to a channel that always seemed to just be goofy.

It is sad their quality declined, when in the beginning they enabled to look at movies with a more critical eye but these days their videos are riddled with weird invalid finger pointing.

[@DJCrisisUK]

Excellent vid, points made were very valid, the only issue I had was when you brought up reviews. I've watched thousands of films over my years and never once left a review, just because a review is left doesn't really mean much. I've watched films with super bad reviews but personally found it entertaining. Considering the amount of people that have watched a film, especially a hollywood (or similar well known studio) then check reviews clearly not a lot of people actualy left one. I've been binging on this channel so much recently and all your vids are entertaining and make you think about the films you're talking about a lot more than just the "surface" ie watching.

Brad Smith because Cinemawins clearly inserts lot more effort for his videos. He analysis themes, hidden meaning, directing, character development and so on. Cinemasins is complete idiot who can't take criticism, who never admits he is wrong, and has terrible points in his reviews. His fans love to defend him by stating that "he is not meant to be taken seriously". I believed his bullshit for a while, until I watched his real reviews that he posts on his other channels and uses the same freaking points. Dude is funny? Yeah. But is he good critic? Not even close.

[@VixxKong2]

+George Daugherty true. Saying that they beg is kinda harsh. Plus, when I don't subscribe and I want to watch another one of their vids, it's kinda hard to remember what was the name of the channel. I subscribe more for myself than anything else. And if I want to support the channel more, I turn the notification bell on. It's no big deal really.

To be fair, if you're going to be a director, writer, whatever, in any area of literature or art, you should have thicker skin instead of getting pissed off that some person on the internet is talking shit about you or your piece of work.

They aren't immune to criticism but they shouldn't have to ignore incorrect or unjunjustified trash talk, which is most of cinemasins content these days. Why do cinemasins get a free pass but filmmakers can't point out when they're incorrect and spreading mis information that can harm the sales of their movies? I miss the days when cinemasins was actual critisism.

[@Meteaura22]

To be fair, it's perfectly acceptable to point out the flaws of critics that are undermining a piece of art, as they have no clue what goes on in the actual processing and often disingenuously devalue any inherent meaning.

[@lomax343]

Personally, I never watch a Cinemasins review of a film I've not seen. There would be no point. There ARE critics (eg Mark Kermode) whose opinions I listen to before deciding whether to see a film or not - but no-one in the industry lambasts newspaper or radio critics, even though their impact on a film's success is far greater. I DO eagerly check out Cinemasins for films I've already seen, however. Example - over Christmas I watched Kick-Ass for the first time. As a film, it had style wit and panache; and I was thoroughly entertained. Then I checked back and was delighted to find that Cinemasins had covered it - and was entertained once again by their amusing critique - not least because it was clear they loved the film as well. This is an important point. Cinemasins doesn't hate every film. Bad films (eg The Great Wall - and I still want my money back, not to mention three hours of my life) get torn to shreds, though not always as badly as they deserve. Good films get treated affectionately. A recent example of this is their review of Paddington, which no fan of the film could possibly object to, and most would find very funny. Or take their review of Se7en, in which they break off to lambast themselves for "criticising a masterpiece." Yes, their style has changed over the years - it's improved. Their writing is sharper and funnier, and their delivery much better. As for the money they make - more power to them.

[@pulkmees]

I agree with everything you just said, BUT it does feel that recently they do like to ignore plot points, dialogue etc for some reason. It feels like laziness, because it's still the same nitpicky stuff it's just not based on what the movie previously clearly stated. Yes, there's still genuine jokes. There's also some videos, where they flat out hate the movie and it's really obvious. People like to generalize though, so now everyone is divided into 2 camps - hate or love. Meanwhile I think it's just a mixed bag.

Great video you got my sub. I’m a huge CinemaSins fan and have been since the beginning, and I’m happy you are fair and an objective person and try to see both sides. I highly recommend you listen to a podcast or two of theirs, just get into the heads of them and really see how light hearted and goodwilled they really are, they’re not out to crucify anyone, I promise.

[@StealthGamer37]

Cinemasins is just a pool of negativity. They demolish a well crafted or poorly crafted movie, making you either feel guilty or stupid for liking it or feel angry at them. I like Cinemawins due to how much the guy puts positive energy into the movie. He points out the good parts, complements the writing, actually teaches me about cinematography, writing, lighting, and special effects. It allows me to gain a new appreciation for movies I love and at least respect movies I don’t. I get that positive, feel good content isn’t the only thing we should consume, but Cinemasins has just become a pool of hate trashing a popular movie for clicks. There’s no respect for their own creation anymore.

1. They can't handle satire. 2. They can't handle criticism. 3. They can't make better movies.

I've listened to their podcast channel and they actually have a genuine love for movies and the art of film making, really the whole Cinema Sin's counter is more a play on the people who love to nitpick the little things. I get the sense of humor they are going for and while I can admit that sometimes it can get overlong like they should really go back to videos being ten min at the most I can still see where a lot of what they are saying is coming from, we've all had these thoughts while watching a movie at some point in time. They just decided to put it into video form.

The quality of the video should determine its length. Used to be, you KNEW it was a bad movie because the Sins was over 5 minutes long.

dannytheman1313 honestly you bring up a very good point here... I can remember countless times especially as a child first getting into watching movies when I’d come across a scene that just didn’t sit right in my mind. over the years I’m pretty sure all of us just decide to glance over those scenes rather than think about it but CinemaSins definitely does do a good job in that matter with pointing out those questionable moments that didn’t feel right.

Can someone here please tell me the name of their podcast channel ?

[@TurntBucket]

yeah but their nitpicks are trash. their nitpicks are more worthy of being nitpicked than what they are nitpicking

[@JamesKlemm87]

I'm sick of people calling them nitpicks when 75% of the time they aren't even nitpicks and they literally have stooped to manipulatively editing movies to fit a joke. Go watch their Mad Max: Fury Road video where they "sin" them for making Tom Hardy inaudible in the opening narration. This isn't even true, he is perfectly audible during that narration, but watching the CS video he sounds inaudible. This is because they literally edited the audio of the opening lines to make it sound worse so they could ham fist in a lame Dark Knight Rises Bane reference. They do this all the time and the only reason it's done is so they can pad the length of the videos to fit the KZbin algorithm they swear by.

Orci/Kurtzman/destroying your childhood is particularaly mean, because they also made Transformers Prime, widely know as the best Transformers production since Beast Wars.

I remember once talking to my best friend, talking about what we liked to watch on youtube most currently and I said "oh, I'm totally into movie reviews" - and she goes: "Oh yeah, I like to watch Cinema Sins" - and I just went. Oh. oh no... like the fact she thought of that as "a review" shocked me. I didn't have anything against the chanel, had even enjoyed some videos of them (old ones) - but I would never describe it as a review.
