HARRY POTTER and the SORSOPHER'S STONE - Smersh Pod Review [Bewitching BanyaBat Edit]

[@munchjrgames942]

It's really nice to see these videos highlighting and expanding upon references to British culture, and how your channel alternates between these two very different pools of references. Keep up the good work!

[@Viceroy_Sundercles_III]

The world must know of Arnold Rimmer!

[@squid1481]

Coming from the RLM videos, I wasn't familiar with the Smersh group. But glad to discover this trio also has someone with ear piercing laughter

[@migzydrift]

Ditto.

[@CophinRuinz0rKestra]

I mean, so much so that Banya has to turn down the volume on the sync when the guy laughs. Pretty hysterical.

[@RobbedTheBank]

Same as hell

[@pasteghost428]

Yup. I started listening to their Spotify whilst getting sideways in Gran Turismo.

[@KaladinVegapunk]

Yeah I only know the channel from being a fan of RLM since 2011 haha, their commentary tracks are legendary but these edits are so damn good. No clue who these dudes are. Rifftrax is still the goddamn S rank

[@TheDeppertLasseVogt]

The "THINK!"-Part killed me. I couldn't breathe...

[@TheDeppertLasseVogt]

Nearly Cancelled Nick still makes me laugh. This trio is priceless.

[@edwardhannah8507]

Dude, I was howling at that bit lol

[@yungoldman2823]

lmao I love your smersh pod edits man theyre brilliant

[@edwarddorey4480]

*they're

[@JamesHeadbangerfield]

These videos are great. I binge watched all your videos in the past week. It must be a pain to do 1+ hour edits. Keep em coming.

[@BlueBoy0]

I enjoy that the commentary isn't completely negative. I mean, I don't mind watching a bad film being dissed, but it's a nice change.

[@krombopoulosmichael]

Another fantastic edit Banya. These guys are funny but your visuals make it so much better and entertaining. Great work.

[@kerobop]

nearly cancelled nick had me absolutely ROLLING

[@JayTea345]

I actually thought My Dinner with Andre was about Andre the Giant.

[@TheBokkelul]

The Snake Boys have very quickly become one of my favourites

[@CophinRuinz0rKestra]

R.I.P. Leslie Philips and Robbie Coltrane.

[@SteRDLK]

RIP basically all the teachers at this point

[@steamedhamlet]

Oh my god! I've been waiting for this one since last xmas!

[@guywhodances]

8:07 I was just waiting for more Crystal Maze music. 🤣🤣

[@a1b3do]

49:27 amazing work in the field of new ways of pronouncing words

[@SimonBuchanNz]

I literally would not believe that "slime is more powerful in the dark" ad if you didn't show it.

The only reason slime is now a s3x thing is because of this damn generation sexualizing any and everything.. It's SLIME!!!! A kids toy, it WAS innocent till it was sexualized, like everything else, so now when you hear slime. It automatically has a dark meaning behind it.. Just because of some perves. What backwards logic is that?!? That's like not saying the word Sharpie because some people stuck it up their butt and now forever it'll be known for that instead of what it's practically made for. God I hate this generation so much. Haven't you ruined ENOUGH?

[@emkultra2349]

Thank you for these edits.

[@Crash-lm4zb]

fun fact about the goblin bank having a giant 6 pointed star in it: Jewish orgs came after the movie for going so far and ahead on the stereotyping by including the star of david in the jew-allegory characters' bank. The filmmakers replied, "well actually the floor was like that when we start filming" LOL

[@IndependentTitle]

I'd chuck a rug over that

[@DistractedGlobeGuy]

And it was from an old Medieval building constructed back when the hexagram was a symbold of the Crusades. Turns out, the desire to *make* everything racist is largely an ahistorical invention by political opportunists.

[@pmc8451]

You think a film crew for a major hollywood blockbuster just turns up on location and starts filiming? You don’t think they change anything or extensively dress the set to make it look exactly how they want it to look? It may of been an existing feature of the building but they conciously chose to keep it in the set design. Its not a documentary, they’re not shooting the day to day at a real goblin bank. The excuse of “oh well that’s what it’s like in real life” is nonsensical.

[@Crash-lm4zb]

@@pmc8451 idk why youre so mad, your argument has nothing to do with the simple fact I said

[@David_____]

@@pmc8451 you are a Lunatic probably forgot to take ur pills

[@takeshispacepirate]

RIP Robbie Coltrane

[@SpiderHam]

I hope to see videos of the commentary for the other films. They’re brilliant!

[@mattgilbert7347]

Harry's mum looks like a grown-up Ginny Weasley Fkin dodgy, that is

[@Viceroy_Sundercles_III]

Harry likes that Oedipussy.

[@madnes1991]

You guys are super funny! Love the View to a Kill review too. "Keep an eye...on that"

[@hazmongrel]

Wow he was bang on about harry potter becoming a TV show. Also if you're reading BanyaBat, your videos are amazing! Really top work mate

[@lofi_wzrd]

Left by the door like an uber eats blocking an entry that opens outward

[@jesselerch5368]

I love these very much! If you had a patreon or a way to pay you id love to have more Smershpod videos.

[@BanyaBat]

Hope you enjoy the new one! : kzbin.info/www/bejne/f2m0gWh3gMqKaMk

[@gbkiet]

great video, hope there'll be edits for other hp movies (if there're episodes of the podcast on them)

[@HeathcliffeMcHarris]

Whoah mind blown that ive been seeing dudley in movies and not recognized him at all

[@takeshispacepirate]

fantastic. magical even.

[@ElectronicWitchcraft]

Yayyy, I can watch again.

[@BanyaBat]

Hope you enjoy, had an absolute nightmare getting the audio right and keeping this one on KZbin!

[@JG-tr8ph]

19:09 - I mean, how else do you conceal the back of a character's head for the entirety of a film? Regardless of indoors, outdoors, weather, etc. Also, the book was written in 1997.

[@AdamasOldblade]

Ironically this video was published August 14th, 2022. Leslie Phillips died on November 7th, 2022.

[@adityasanyal1678]

That last bit is so priceless!!!

[@TheDeppertLasseVogt]

20:12 - Rich Evans!

[@DistractedGlobeGuy]

I CLAPPED! I CLAPPED WHEN I SAW IT!

[@pedrobettt]

The movie cover at 53:26. Original movie is The Invisible Maniac (1990)

[@pmc8451]

Have you ever heard Andre the Giant speak? He’s incomprehensible enough when speaking French and he’s 10 times more incomprehensible when he speaks English.

[@theyurireviewer]

Robbie Coltrane being an anti-semite brought me to tears so fast i cant sleep from laughing so hard

[@karry299]

To be fair, all British are anti-semite, as well as anti-german, anti-french, anti-russian, and anti-everyone else. That's just how they are.

[@rugs_official]

There is was watching the whole thing thinking: "That whole Samaritan thing in the podcast was the funniest part for me, why wouldn't you include it?" Then...you saved the best for last 🙌🏻

[@orimoreau3138]

I appreaciate your efforts sir

[@jewcce]

This was hilarious!

[@mikemckinney3847]

Was he trying to be the Lucky charms leprechaun during the TV commercial for cereal

[@robpreston712]

Oh god thank you, I really wanted to listen to this episode but skipped it because of that laugh. This is so much better. Not all heroes wear capes

[@DasHumanCentipede]

There's still plenty of that obnoxious, ear-splitting laugh in this video - but maybe BanyaBat couldn't cut around it. It totally spoils the whole podcast though. He sounds like Knox Harrington, the video artist.

I nearly did a spit-take at Nearly Canceled Nick.

Fixed. (For real this time. Please believe me)

[@BanyaBat]

Definitely. Absolutely. 110%. Probably.

Had to look up who the hell Rik Mayal even is.

[@LifesNeverHumDrum]

Meanwhile I was allowed to watch Drop Dead Fred as a child, so that voice lives in my head

[@abrahamicreligionsbowbefor3585]

That bank is real and in Australia Melbourne. Any yikesing would just be something against our banks.

[@aag2139]

Or its yikesing the choice to film there instead of anywhere else. They had to chose that location before filming after all.

[@SaltonGreen]

Interviewer to John. But that's not true you can say banana all you like. you just said banana and I said banana and no gives a shit.

[@rebirth_mishap]

Stereotypes gotta come from somewhere

These guys are legit

[@erikjohnson7141]

It was McGonagall that got him the broom

[@illustriouschin]

I haven't seen very much of the movies but that parents murder and baby plot is preposterous and mind boggling.

[@blarbful]

Why?

[@pastapalads5598]

19:57 no way they had Dies Irae in an aids psa

[@DistractedGlobeGuy]

Fits better there than in _Fellowship of The Ring._

Where is the one funny guy with the good laugh and good jokes!? This is like watching Red Letter Media but with Jack, or watching Oneyplays and instead of Julian and Ding Dong it's Zach the snott goblin and Tumblar. Yes, nice choice kicking him out and getting someone who laughs like a Hyena with little too say...

[@BrotherJP333SP]

Hagrid is saying, "If your parents were alive, they would be proud of you, Harry." Harry was sad because he didn't understand why he began to have a hairy trouser snake and bum hole.

[@bloodeagle6458]

Ya was never a potter fan when I was a kid even then I was like man some kids are really stupid and easily entertained

[@csours]

Fiiixed

Even if you didn't grow up with the books or the movies.. Faulting Harry Potter because of whimsical stuff, is like faulting James Bond movies for having gadgets. I don't know why they keep thinking it's the mid 90's when the movie came out in 2001. Current people read WAAAAAAAAAAAY too much into things now and inject their own BS morality and WOKENESS into sht.

[@shioq.]

but Britain is a white country

[@RabbiHerschel]

John Cleese did nothing wrong and "transphobia" is a good thing.

[@karry299]

I'm pretty sure he did a lot of things wrong in his quite long life. Being born British would be one of those things.

[@alice88wa]

Yaaaawn
