Renegade Cut Pitifully Defends Ghostbusters 2016 | EFAP Highlight

[@EFAPHighlights]

Hey, everyone - I've been seeing all the comments about how much you guys aren't liking the slap sound effect, so I'll be doing a quick re-edit of the next few videos going up to remove it and see if there's a better workaround. KZbin has been limiting monetization on every video I upload the instant it goes up, so I've been taking more drastic approaches to getting everything through. Sorry for the annoyance!

Renegade cut was one of those people out of the channel awesome group like Lindsey elliis (back then the nostalgia chick) that has a lot of video and film theory essays but eventually he got to a point where he basically got very political for no reason in his film critiques. It was strange when he did a whole video about how Donald trump understood citizen Kane as a mark on his politics, not saying I'm for it trump, but he started giving really wierd film takes. This was one of them where he tried presenting his ideas as factual when he provides very little, if anything to believe him.

[@Archer-ub2rg]

As terrible as this movie was, it was made a thousand times worse for me personally due to everything that happened behind the scenes which culminated in this dumpster fire. In fact, I'd say that the behind the scenes troubles are WORSE than the actual film because the corporate meddling in Sony just disgusted me so much. Sony sat on this franchise for years and it wasn't until the success of the 2009 game that they got interested in making another film, but here's the catch: They (mainly Amy Pascal) didn't want Ivan Reitman to direct what was going to be the third movie, so they continued to hold out on getting the production started. Then, after Harold Ramis passed away, Reitman stepped down from his position as a producer/director out of grief over the loss of his dear friend, and everyone pretty much gave up on another Ghostbusters movie at that point. Well, everyone except for Sony, which descended on the franchise like a goddamn vulture because all control over the next GB project was given over to them when Reitman stepped down. Midnight's Edge has a lot of great videos that went in-depth about all of this. Sometimes I wish that the 2009 Video Game wasn't as much of a success for the sole reason that it got Sony interested in making more movies, and NOTHING was going to stop them. Now look at the state of the Ghostbusters almost 15 years after the game's release. It's truly tragic.

[@MrNickPresley]

It's like trying to get kids to eat their veggies. Starting out, they hate pretty much anything that isn't dino nuggets, spaghettio's and nesquik, but will eventually learn to appreciate, say, a nice endive salad, or a veggie confit all on their own. Tastes change as you grow up, after all. But for me, the older films that I really enjoyed were the ones that my dad was also really enthusiastic about. I remember being a little kid and asking him what Star Wars was, and he was like "You wanna talk about Star Wars? I've been *dying* to talk about Star Wars! Alright, so, get this: A long time ago, in a galaxy far away.." It was like that every time he introduced my siblings and me to the stuff he grew up with. Everything from Tolkien, to DnD and Marvel Comics, to Toho Godzilla movies (we had just about every single one on VHS), it was his enthusiasm that drew us in, and the quality then did the rest.

EFAP was wrong about how Rotten Tomatoes works. Any score of a 6 or higher goes to fresh, any score lower goes to rotten. The 74% means 74% of critics gave it a 6 or higher. But even then, if 281 people give it a 6.2, and 99 people give it a 5.3, that doesn't make the movie critically acclaimed. The same goes for viewer scores. 50% gave it a 6 or higher.

It actually annoys me when some people say, "they only talk about bad stuff, why don't they just keep praising good movies instead?" 1. Because they keep making crap. 2. It's already a good film. Why would they talk about it more? To make it more better? 3. They talk about bad stuff because they want them to be better/make better movies next time. To learn why their project failed and not make the same mistakes. The same reason why we get scolded by our parents when we do something bad.

[@BigBroTejano]

What’s funny is that EFAP has and dose talk about good films. Hell, they have even defended films and shows that their audiences are largely hated.

[@tolkienist7905]

I love the fact that the people saying this movie is actually great if you watch the extended version are the same people that complain about the extended versions of LOTR. Lying saying the movie has like 6 endings and yet want 15 more minutes of Mike Hat and queef jokes.......Each.

[@cookiecreep9204]

Every time one of those garbage reboots, remakes, rehashes comes out, the braindead defense I always hear is "oh, you only dislike it because of the association. It would be fine if it was separate!" And I never understand how it would fix the issue even if it was true. Taking a known IP is precisely because the idea on its own is so shit it would not sell on its own, so they use a known name to trick people into watching it. It would NOT be good on its own. If anything, nobody would even notice it released.

23:50 I always loved this argument simply because I'm living proof that it's false. Terminator, Shawshank, and Empire are some of my favorite movies. Writing doesn't really age, unlike effects. Good stories are timeless and appeal to everyone.

It’s the crime of current KZbin. Streams should be fine, but for a clip channel like Wolf’s, there’s no superchats to rely on, so he has to work within the monetization rules the site lays out.

9:20 The Rotten Tomatoes argument is insanely dishonest. As they mentioned, this was one of the first and most prominent examples of movie scores being manipulated. At the same time, you need to consider the nature of RT's scoring system, which only examines the proportion of reviews which rated things positively. When you compare this to Metacritic, which is generally less egregious and uses an arguably better system of averaging actual scores, their scores becomes 60/100 for critics and 27/100 for audiences. It's also one of the most prominent examples of critical opinion diverging from that of the public and it's worth examining why. Given the context of the questionable decisions made by RT, as well as the numerous editorials and reports that attached a feminist political context to the movie's reception, I think it's reasonable to conclude that it's at least possible that critics came to believe that defending the film was an act of political significance, regardless of quality. Even if you refuse to believe that, the absolute best the film could be is a mediocre cash-grab. What then is the point of coming to such a film's defense if not as an act of political significance? By defending it in this way, Renegade, being a film critic himself, only proves the allegations that critics are politically compromised to the point of disregarding quality in favor of satisfying their own political ends. That he does so in such a hateful, ignorant, and reductive way is just the cherry on top. I'm so tired of leftist art critics.

I hate this movie so much. It’s done so much harm to cinema as a whole. It’s done a lot of damage to Hollywood because all they do now is attack the fans whom they rely on to get paid. Smart move idiots. Attack the people whom pay you. Also this move started the all female trend of destroying legacy hero’s. And it’s gotten old, it’s about as interesting as the damsel in distress trope. If they just made good entertainment and started acting like adults and not children who hate all of us then they’d probably make money again.

[@jennycomelately]

The whip sound is pretty annoying tbh… the clip is funny and I get why it’s censored but I wonder if there’s not a better way to do it.

[@ShamrockShows]

28:17 I think the only exception to this rule would be freddy got fingered or maybe some other cult movies where they weren’t popular on release but they’re far more indicative of their era than some of the middling movies

I unironically enjoy the third transformers. I don't think it's a good film, but i just love that it goes WAY harder than it has to. Like, obviously, Micheal Bay just wanted to make a shredder film but was tied to his transformers contract. It just makes me so happy to see giant robots literally tear each other apart and watch the attempts at robot gore. It's hilarious and incredible.

In that case the Samurai Jack animation TV show might have something for you.

[@88HELLJUMPER88]

Oh, I absolutely love the Samuri Jack series. I was still in elementary school when that and the tarkosvkey Star Wars mini series came out. They were very formative for my taste in media that's for sure.
