[@jamestamz]

@@theitfactorjameswheezer2852 Can someone explain what does hack the movies mean? It doesn't make sense literally or figuratively.

[@harleyjackson3708]

@@jamestamz It's just a fun name, dude. Doesn't really HAVE to mean anything, but if you must have an explanation, "hack" isn't just a computer term. You can "hack something open," as in dissecting something. We do THAT, but to movies' characters, plots and themes, hacking the film into individual sections and talking about the movie in pieces.

[@harleyjackson3708]

Next year on July 28th will be the 200th anniversary of the first live-action Frankenstein performance, "Presumption, or, The Fate of Frankenstein." It's the only live-action Frankenstein Mary Shelley ever got to see, and I just felt that is good info to add to the comments of this video 😁

[@steveb7932]

my dog passed away last weekend and discovering hack the movies has been a lifeline for me. Thank you

[@HackTheMovies]

Well thank god Kenneth Branagh never filmed the dead dog being reanimated scene for this movie. That probably would have been a bummer. Glad you're enjoying the show!

Dude, I'm so sorry. I do know what you mean. It with a scant few other channels are all that has gotten me through Covid. Nothing feels right, so when you find something that actually helps it's like finding treasure.

[@sebastianemond5313]

"I have love in me the likes of which you would not believe, and rage the likes of which you can scarcely imagine. If I cannot satisfy the one... I will endulge the other." That was still a good delivery, showing how thorough the Monster is at keeping the promises he makes, for good or evil.

Just wanted to say I appreciate all the hard work that goes in these reviews.

[@MonkeyBone316v1]

If I'm not mistaken the electricity part was introduced later on because of real life experiments involving the dead and electricity/ electrodes. Real experiments of Frankenstein's nature were occurring around that time period that the book is set in.

[@kurtadams9740]

Yep, Mary shelly actually saw a display of a doctor putting electrodes into dead animals to make the muscles twice. That inspired her Frankenstein story

[@MonkeyBone316v1]

It also happened to dead people. That's the time that a lot of grave robbing for "science" was going on.

[@bad-people6510]

The book sort of implies that Frankenstein broke the body parts down into their base chemicals and then reconstituted them into a humanoid form. That's how he was able to make the monster much bigger than a normal person. You couldn't really do that if you were using spare parts from a half dozen people.

[@CeeJayThe13th]

Well... I'm glad you said that because all of these years that's never made sense to me and I've read the book at least twice. I even read Dean Koontz' Frankenstein series.

[@johngudonis2015]

He collected parts from charnel houses so most likely the monster had pig lips.

I always thought a component of the monster's rage wasn't just his brain or hideous appearance but that all those nerve endings and organs and limbs that have been stitched together are constantly screaming in pain.

[@jumpingalaxies951]

I hate leaving negative comments, but the chemistry with Newt, and I'm not saying it's his fault, brings out the worst in the group. Often feels like a lot of arrogance and a show more about "being right" than discussing a movie. Maybe that is due to how well you know each other, and feel familiar with each other, but those reviews often have very distinct lines of "us vs them" between the hosts which is not a fun dynamic. This was fun. A lot of it. Good job.
