Original Description: Ever wonder how the pitch meeting that started it all went down? Check out this video to find out how Gal Gadot's accent lead to an island of Borat-ladies, or why Chris Pine's Steve Trevor was so non-challant about meeting gods. You might even learn how Diana Prince fighting Ares became one of the most ridiculous third acts we've seen in a while! Trust us, it's super easy, barely an inconvenience.

I like how the long "mah waiff" doesn't really occur in the movie; that's from Da Ali G Show, which hardly anyone's seen, but somehow everyone remembers "I come to make Pamela Anderson 'Mahh Waiifff'" when it was more like "muwyff"

One thing I found funny about Wonder Woman was how she defeated Ares with a beam of light from her torso powered by love. She effectively saved the world with a care bear stare.

I'm the only person I know that disliked this movie. Not trying to be a contrarian, but this video sums up my thoughts on it. Great cast, though!

[@Mr_Paw_revised]

I didn’t hate the movie, but was surprised with the success. For me it was 5/10 „wait for streaming service” type of superhero movie. I guess women all over the world tipped the scales.

[@BilSande4]

In "Hunt for Red October" the Russian characters start out speaking in Russian and at one point, near the beginning of the film, the camera pans past a column obscuring the character who's currently talking and when he comes back into view he's suddenly speaking English. I always thought that was a brilliant way to let the audience know that "OK, these guys are speaking Russian, but we've turned on the universal translator so you can understand them."

[@BFedie518]

And one of them is Scottish because it's Sean Connery and you don't mess with his voice.

[@HandGrenadeDivision]

This goes back to the 40s - check out the translation convention in Judgement at Nuremberg.

[@rmhartman]

Was watching last year's Mission Impossible flick, and they used Russian with subtitles that switched over to English. This was on the submarine Sebastopol. I guess that's just how Russian submarines work.

[@jimbrown5091]

And it was done on the word "Armageddon" which is the same in Russian and English (at least according to a video analysis by Patrick H. Willems, I don't speak Russian).

[@lightandtheheat]

You're right in that The Hunt for Red October is a great example of how to transition from foreign language to English while still maintaining the notion that they're speaking the foreign language, but I think you're mixing up how they do it with another film. The camera zooms in on Political Officer Ivan Putin's mouth as he is quoting Revelation 16:16-17, pivoting from Russian to English on the word "Armageddon," and then zooming back out.

[@delugesofgrandeur]

The Chrises segment is one of my favorite that Ryan's done. So good.

[@dogtiredguitars]

The "Chris" bit in this one was pure comedy genius. I've actually referenced it quite a few times since watching the original airing of this episode.

I am a MASSIVE Britanick fan! I got to take a virtual sketch comedy writing workshop Brian put on a couple years ago, it was such a great experience and I highly recommend doing one if he does more. For me, the funniest part of finding out you’re also a Britanick fan is that on the first day of the workshop, we were asked to bring in an example of sketch comedy to talk about it. I used “The First Guy to Ever Write Fiction” as my example!

[@TWM71]

Hunt for Red October did the language switch really well so that we have the crews speak English on both sides and then when the Americans get aboard Red October her crew switch back to speaking Russian. Excellent handling of the language barrier issue.

[@benabramowitz18]

I also liked this Cinemax show _Warrior,_ where the rich gang leaders were speaking in English to each other, then speak Mandarin only when dealing with the poor.

[@nicklafleur7620]

That's actually where Valkyrie got the idea from. If I remember correctly, both movies start with a foreign language until they say something like "armageddon" then it switches to English. Tom cruise did it again with mi7, almost directly paying homage to hunt for redOctober, just with the transition word this time being "Sevastopol"

[@trumpetbob15]

Yeah, this is the classic example I always think of where the language change happens like mid-song or something so it just feels normal even though it very clearly is a convenience for the viewer.

[@gordonstewart99]

My favorite example of this is the 13th Warrior where we see the lead learn the language bit by bit and then it morphs into English.

Tom Cruise's German in Valkyrie was actually pretty decent. You can tell he put some work into learning the proper pronunciations. That's far from common in Hollywood productions.

[@TheRealGSmith]

He clearly put effort into it and the sounds are technically correct, but it still sounds VERY American.

[@misterwhyte]

I hate it when a character is supposed to be a certain nationality but speaks the language with a strong foreign accent. As if Hollywood didn't have the means to hire a talented actor from said country!

[@R4iko]

His French is also pretty good, accent wise. It's obvious it's not his first language but he's definitely worked on it.

[@MusicoftheDamned]

​@@misterwhyte As much as I would like to solely dump Hollywood and any large corporation for being cheapskates with all the money they have, authentic accents *are* pretty hard to be fair. Accents are like Tom Hardy's one (massive) weakpoint as an actor and that guy is otherwise a great actor. I agree with you that Hollywood (writers) could at least to *try* more, but that pretty much goes without saying in general. The most of the other DCEU movies besides this one, including the _WW84_ dumpster fire, are proof of that without even setting outside of that universe. ("Save Martha!")

[@misterwhyte]

​@@MusicoftheDamned "authentic accents are pretty hard to be fair" that's why you hire people from the actual place. I can understand relying on an actor's talent for low budget films, but Hollywood definitely can afford to find someone from said place. It's really a case of making things more complicated than they should be.

I like your comment on life experiences. One comment from The Critical Drinker on modern hollywood writers is a lack or real life experience with struggles. They come from mid to upper income families, went to college at ivy leagues or private universities, and never had to work hard and not get something. Not because of their effort but because of not having the means, discrimination, connections, etc. So they perceive their very easy life as a struggle, which is very out of touch. So a lot of the stories with "heros" leaves out that story arc of overcoming adversity. Instead the hero comes out from a very easy/supportive background, is indestructible, easily defeats the bad guys, etc. Even worse when it is an insult to the common person showing how easy or even better they are. "like why so hard". So totally agree that having that is important to writing, and extremely important for your unique reviews.

I was confused at first, but they are delicious, and smacking them against a table is indeed really fun.

[@OmnicidalClown1992]

Wonder Woman was definitely one of the better films in the DCEU. The only glaring issue I had with this film was how they portrayed Ares. At first I thought the idea of him was interesting, that, despite him being the God of War, he only whispered into people's ears and into how to create certain weapons, of which he just watched them how they would act if they had such knowledge. And I thought the lesson that the movie was trying to convey was an interesting idea, as a human's cruelty is based on how they used their knowledge rather than the influence of others. But then they tossed it out the window by having Wonder Woman and Ares fight each other. And of course, when Ares died everyone just stopped fighting and the war ended right there. This ending, in my opinion, was completely hypocritical when it came to the overall story and message. And what made it even worse is, despite the fact that Ares is declared dead, wars are still happening afterwards. So what was even the point of killing off Ares if there were other wars and conflicts that happened after the events of Wonder Woman the movie?

[@carlsiouxfalls]

She only killed the Greek god of war. There's still the Roman god of war, and the Norse god of war, and the Egyptian god of war... I don't know if any of those actually feature in DC lore.

[@deemo5245]

Definitely overthinking comic books

[@hkfifty871]

As much as I really WANTED to love David Thewlis as Ares, it just really didn’t work for me when they pretty much immediately launched into HUGE SUPERHERO PUNCHOUT, because heaven forbid we have a superhero movie where the climax isn’t people bunching or blasting each other in the face (and of the many, many strengths he has as an actor, “physically imposing” is not one of them). And Ares as more of a manipulator/puppetmaster (which he 100% WAS able to deliver on) and the theme that humanity CHOOSES to embrace violence and war (which they’d built up throughout the rest of the movie) was basically undercut by the war wrapping up once Ares died. Despite that, it was one of the few generally good DC movies we got.

[@rightsarentpolitical]

@OmnicidalClown1992 & @hkfifty871 100% agree on all counts. Like Ryan alluded to, they were SO CLOSE to having a really strong message and then threw it all away

Hey Ryan, glad you’re doing this series it’s refreshing to see a new format to summarize movies. Anyway I’m curious, what happened to the actor pitch meetings?

[@FutureCommentary1]

Iirc he's answered it in one of the revisited pitch meetings. I couldn't tell you which one though.

[@suikofan]

I really loved the sniper who rather than getting over his problems and saving the day just breaks down.

[@raanjoseph]

Hey thanks for introducing us to BriTANicK. Some hilarious sketch comedy for sure. Demand a kickback dangit!

[@huqqis]

The "being distracted by subtitles" argument always seems so funny to me because in my country a huge portion of that comes from TV is foreign and have subtitles and I have never felt distracted by them.

[@rune6947]

Hey Ryan, I love your videos. Keep up the good work. Whenever you can, please do pitches for Demolition Man, The Room and National Treasure

[@o_s-24]

The part about the Chrises was absolutely hilarious. Best part of the pitch meeting

[@JasonBlades13]

I always thought this sounded familiar amd then you mentioned britanick! I love their videos and it was on point with them

[@terrytube5247]

The end bit about creativity was very true and inspiring. I will show it to my 21-year-old boy because he should hear it from another 21-year-old boy. You have done good work here, young man!

[@kousetsuhana]

I love Pitch Meetings and Revisited Pitch Meetings! Best content ❤️

[@sarinat3101]

If you're still looking for suggestions, highly recommend one for the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen or Van Helsing! Both were pretty cheesy when they came out but I think a lot of people still love them :)

[@mattyt1961]

soooo much cheese! oh glorious cheese

[@foowashere]

Great suggestions! 👍

Next Godzilla Minus One…This was my best movie of the year but I want to know if there was anything that I glossed over just because I love the property. I watch and rewatch these videos all the time. Keep up the good job!

[@rudeboi2003]

WW was one of the first pitch meetings I watched and helped to get me hooked. The end tag took me out completely and made me want to watch as many of them as possible 😂

[@Grasslander]

9:25 We need way more Quebec French in the videos, Ryan. S'il vous plaît! The last time was when you went on a vacation to France, tons of years ago.

[@MILOPETIT]

I would kill to hear just one tabarnak from him

[@Quetzal00358]

Hey Ryan! Love the videos. I've always wanted to know: which character do you like more, Producer Guy or Screenwriter Guy?

[@auroninja]

Valkyire, solid reference. Totally agree about how they handled translation, too. The 13th Warrior does a similar thing with translation once Antonio Banderas character starts to understand the Norse language.

[@Martindoyon]

Merci beaucoup, keep it up, your videos are amazing

[@benabramowitz18]

Hey Ryan! Have you ever thought of doing any older films, maybe pre-2000? We need Pitch Meetings for Jaws, E.T., Wizard of Oz, Terminator 1&2, Alien(s), Predator, and the Godfather!

[@goldenfiberwheat238]

He already answered that

[@ian_snow]

​@goldenfiberwheat238 where did he answer that?

[@gwenweight6916]

Absolutely. Let the poor guy watch some of the films that probably got him in to films in the first place. This guy makes sense, Ryan!

[@goldenfiberwheat238]

@@ian_snow I don’t remember but the answer was that he can’t because of the screen rant article joke at the end of each video

Hey Ryan, love your videos! Question - have you ever talked to someone who has worked on one of the movies you made a pitch meeting for? If so, did you talk about the pitch meeting?

[@buzz092]

I instantly knew you were going to say A Monologue For Three by BritAnNick when you said you were going to send us on another deep dive. It's my favourite of their sketches and one I return to frequently.

[@legiN_makez]

thank you for entertaining me during my free time

[@murphthegangster]

That Chris joke is probably one of my favourite jokes in all of pitch meeting

[@Meisha-san]

Chris Rock! He missed Chris Rock 😂

[@matityaloran9157]

@Meisha-san, Keep his name out of your freaking mouth.

My wife introduced me to chocolate oranges and I love them. When she was young, Santa would put one in each stocking on Christmas Eve, but to fit in the stockings, Santa pulled the chocolate oranges out of the box, and my wife grew up thinking the name of this treat was the only words found outside the wrapper on a sticker, "Whack and unwrap" which would be quite the unique name.
