FUN FACT (because i read the book when i was in 8th grade and watching this is bringing back horrible memories), in the book Wanda's new body is a *_sixteen year old_* redhead and she makes the conscious decision to lie about it when Ian is visibly uncomfortable with how young she looks. It didn't even click in my mind as a kid that they're supposed to be in their thirties when I first read that... also the enemy lady was so pissed off because her host body's personality was comically annoying and never shut up and it gave her constant headaches.

I actually kinda like it, makes these guys seem like more than just idiots or complete sellouts, rather people who comprehend the level of trite they're involved with. Or maybe they just don't care or possible too crappy with PR. I dunno. Haven't seen them in many blockbusters afterwards though.

[@MrSnowy665]

bgw316 Yeah that's my point, it's sort of gratifying to see how little they care, though I think that's a fast pass to getting black listed if a studio doesn't think you're gonna try and sell the movie...and there's an obvious benefit to pretending the movie is great so you can make more money.

[@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017]

+MrSnowy665 It's probably as much about youthful hipster pride and cool as it is about anything else. On the one hand they already are sellouts for taking roles in such dreck, so they try to salvage their dignity by being flippantly derisive (Kristen Stewart did this also).

My favorite part of movies is when people cut themselves intentionally with knives and it only sorta hurts. Do you know how fucking painful cutting yourself that slowly is? We have evolved a nervous system over millions of years designed to stop you from doing exactly that! The pain would be excruciating! It would hurt like a bitch for hours. You would probably pass out shortly after breaking the skin. But nope! The look on her face is less self-torture, more this-is-totes-gonna-ruin-my-make-up.

[@TheBlarggle]

Not only that, but after slicing open her arm(with ease), she one-hands the knife across her FACE. Okay, so I can sorta buy that someone would be able to effortlessly cut one of their arms for the "right purpose". I'm saying I'll buy it, but I'm still skeptical about how it'd really play out. But to be able to slice a 2 inch gash RIGHT ABOVE YOUR EYE.... WITHOUT SO MUCH AS FLINCHING?!?! Like... You'd think actors would understand the entire spectrum of human emotion and reaction. Particularly very easy ones to gauge and react to. Such as physical pain. Not a very "deep" or complex feeling to react to appropriately. That coupled with the point you made about how we, as a living being with a complex nervous system, are "wired" to react a certain way to our skin being ripped open made that entire scene fucking awful. While watching her slice her arm open I was thinking "Um. Okay, why is she reacting as if she were watching a bug crawl across her arm?" And then, she slices her face with out so much as a gasp or flinch? Fucking hell, and this movie was supposed to be about "The Human Condition"? Try understanding even the most basic aspect of the human condition and get back to me, Ms. Meyers.

[@dorpth]

All these tween female protagonist bestselling books are the exact same goddamn thing. - There are two factions that are unfriendly with each other but not fully at war. - The female protagonist's mere presence stirs things up enough that full blown war erupts between the two factions. - There are two guys she enjoys stringing along as they fight over her. - The two factions fight over her since her super specialness is somehow key to the overall conflict. - The female protagonist, when you break the plot down, NEVER ACTUALLY DOES ANYTHING. She mostly passively sits by and lets the players of both factions fight it out over her (yes, even The Hunger Games). The only thing she does is eventually pick one of the love interest guys at the end. Conclusion: a girl's ultimate fantasy is being super special and the center of attention without having to actually do anything as she strings guys along watching everyone fight over her. In short, it's every tween girl's fantasy to be Helen of Troy. (yes people, I know Katass killed the guy who killed the little girl. Reflexively killing ONE person who just murdered a small child in cold blood does not make an active protagonist in a Battle Royale movie. She spends the entire rest of the series letting everyone else do the dirty work for her so she can claim the moral highground, while actively giving the regime what it wants as long as it means she gets to wear a fancy dress and be on TV).

[@DoReMi123acb]

+dorpth fuck....you're right. never noticed that.

[@crisisjack]

Holy crap... quite a decipher.

[@dorpth]

What really gets me though is that everyone says The Hunger Games is the best because Katniss is a "badass", but she never does anything! She's barely any more proactive than Bella. She never kills anyone in the first Hunger Games. The killing is all done by other contestants or the wildlife (shooting one guy to put him out of his misery as he's torn apart by animals doesn't count). Hell, she doesn't even kill the deer she's hunting in the opening! That way she gets to have the moral highground by not killing anyone, but still win the game. In the sequels, everyone else does the fighting and dying but she gets all the credit. And she can't even stay alive on her own in the game without relying on charming men into giving her gifts. Because even a "badass" woman is all about being a tv star and winning popularity contests by wearing the most fabulous designer gowns! I'd say it's worse than Twilight because at least Twilight is recognized as pure romance novel emotional porn. Hunger Games is the worst kind of fraudulent female empowerment and women are eating it up.

[@jaimestark3019]

The one good call the director made was not to adapt the real ending, which is practically a scene from a horror movie. They actually canvas a suburban neighborhood and kidnap a teenage girl that's already possessed to use as Wanda's new body. They abduct her, extract the alien inside her, dispose it and then insert Wanda, with no thought as to whether the original personality could be salvaged like Melanie or if the alien even deserved to be kidnapped and murdered just so Wanda could have sexy times in a new body. That's just one of the many classic Stephanie Meyer scenes that encapsulate her horrifying moral beliefs that tell me that I would probably strangle her if I knew her in person.

[@SaltDoesArt]

Wow...I..wow....

[@TackyRackyComixNEO]

what the actual fuck

[@jaimestark3019]

TackyRackyComixNEO Yup, that's basically the recurrent phrase in my head when I read that part. It actually gets worse when you remember that these aliens generally have no idea that humans are sentient and they assume the state of the body they inhabit. So this alien they kidnapped and murdered was for all intents and purposes...a teenage girl...that they kidnapped and murdered...while they were grinning the whole time at how "romantic" this all was. For Stephenie Meyer if there aint chloroform then there aint no love story! Oh, bonus fact, they chose this girl because she was pretty enough. Wanda and her nameless boyfriend must have the very best after all.

[@TackyRackyComixNEO]

Jaime Stark The more shallow and the creepier the undertones the better!

[@armoredplacoderm]

Okay, you got a few key details wrong. They actually did wait to see if the personality would revive itself in the book. Yes, she was targeted, but it's made clear in the book that they did wait to see if she would revive - particularly because this is AFTER they had several other humans revive after having the alien souls removed. Wanda's new body was a vegetable without an alien, so they put Wanda inside her. It was still creepy, but not nearly what you described. They also didn't "murder" the alien. They didn't harm it in any way. They sent it to another planet. (Which comes with it's own moral problems, since she would be re-implanted into another host) So in short, no, that was not the original ending, that was your mischaracterization of the original ending, and the film ending is actually more accurate to the book then your description, it just leaves out some key points, whereas you just made them up.

[@ninefangthesniper]

The "can I speak to her alone" and "does that include me?" Lines threw me off so bad. I had to pause the video and actually think about those lines and how crazy they sounded.

[@gokuxsephiroth4505]

And the final troupe in a Stephanie Meyer story- nobody has to sacrifice a fucking thing! Yay! Because it doesn't matter if we have to include werewolf paedophilia or necrophilia (Technically- think about it) just write a rushed happy ending for EVERY main character! It's not like the actual drama and interest of a love triangle is that one person ends up heartbroken! Who needs drama and relatability? Fuck this. This could be a cool idea if their priorities weren't getting the pretty guys and gals kissing.

I find that Stephanie Meyer keeps stumbling upon good ideas but then ruins them with her absolute lack of understand of how human beings work. Like Twilight, a mortal falls in love with an immortal. Huge potential ruined with teen drama and oversimplification of the issues raised. The Host is the same. There is potential to explore this concept indepth but Meyer just glances over the implications and makes it about teen drama. Again. If she ever did try to focus just on teen drama she'd find a way to get that wrong too.

[@MissToxicc]

She didn't came up with the idea though.

[@smidgingtom]

Yeah, she stumbled upon it. She may have seen someone else do it, though they didn't get as much recognition, and thought that she could do it better. She didn't, but she got rich off of it.

Smokey McJoint They aren't very good actors. Usually you'd have a good idea of the themes. They had no clue what the themes are. I can't say I have an idea what they are either.

[@Moist_Handshakes]

Balls of steel or something.

[@TheMeanMongoose]

That's why I like recent interviews with Bruce Willis. He doesn't even fucking try anymore.

[@VincentPrice111]

[@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017]

+Con Cahill Good point. Also good actors are usually useless without an even better director. The director is usually the force behind great actors having any sort of impact.

Yep, that's Emily Browning

The part with Danny Devito was both hysterically edited and mentally terrifying xD

I can't wait to see you review Divergent. Have fun with that one.

Just from the trailer its clear that the movie tries to separate from the fangirl demographic that Hunger Games is riding. Totally.

Fuck yes.

Probably going to be a quickie I guess. I'm just waiting for a full YMS on Lucy. I really hope Adam tears that overrated piece of shit a new one.

The moment when the two actors were mocking eachother for saying Ian would love Wanda for her personality had more chemisty in it than any relationship S. Meyer has ever written.

[@DendyJungle]

That guy at 14:06 and rob pattinson both mocked Stephanie meyer's movies on interviews. That's kinda cool.

[@haveawonderfulday4650]

What I would love is if their was a movie where two people trapped inside a body fell in love with each OTHER

[@mimis_mind]

There's actually a book similar to what you're describing called Minders by Michele Jaffe. if you're interested in reading that is 😊

[@deltoroperdedor3166]

Have a wonderful day! that would be Salvador Dali's kind of chick flick

[@midnightshawarmallama4012]

I'd watch that. The only romance movie that I'd pay to see in the theater

[@kirbynat493]

The anime movie Your Name. A girl and a guy end up in each other's bodies and gradually fall in love. It's surprisingly heartfelt.

[@kathrynkavanagh903]

sunnyraven okay i fucking love that movie but i think they’re referring to like a melanie and wanda situation where there isn’t two bodies, there’s only one awkwardly fitting two souls in

[@vinnyethanol]

13:55 That is such a perfect Robert Pattison moment, on par with Robert's own mocking "vampire baby".

The footage you use from the cast interviews is scathing as fuck.

[@viyhexe131]

Those interviews are easily the best parts of this movie. You can tell the actors knew what kind of movie they were in and were just having fun with it.

[@redfox1366]

That in vain joke was bloody good

[@thegrimcritic5494]

13:50 I love how you can see Irons smirking to himself on the side here before he asks if Ian would still love Wanderer even if she was put into a hideous body. Fucking hilarious.

[@gokuss15]

Stephanie Meyer thought it was too hard to project herself into her last Mary Sue, Bella, so she had to give Melanie a name that rhymes with hers.

[@BigLundi]

You know what's funny is that watching this movie, the only question I have is like, "Was this not intended to be a science fiction movie?" Because like, the point of a science fiction world, to my understanding, is to explore the world and how it works through the perspective of particular characters used to frame the world that they're in. In yet most of the focus on this is less to do with exploring how the world works and the like, how they developed their ridiculously powerful all wound healing febreeze medicine, space travel without the use of any seemingly usable appendages(spider legs put space ships together...fucking how? Not to mention all the other things that could be talked about in how this alien society apparently works and how they know the things they do and to what extent they are in fact Utopian, and how far their technology goes. NOPE, none of that shit's necessary, we've got a weird romance story to tell. So when I see Ms. Meyer going, "It's a science fiction movie for people who hate science fiction" I can only conclude that what she means by this is "It's a science fiction movie for people who don't give a shit about world building". I seriously doubt the notion that anyone categorically hates any one genre of movies on principle, at least in the literal sense. I think what tends to happen there is that a person merely doesn't experience any movies in that genre that are done well, and as such just leave it be and decide not to partake in future endeavors on that front, which is understandable, yes, but that doesn't mean that you bastardize a genre and turn it into something it's not just to draw in an audience that wouldn't be into that genre in the first place. It's like if I were to make a rap song for people who hate rap music, and to do so, I made a fucking alternative rock song. If I get a fan base for that song, that doesn't make them all of a sudden like rap music, or even motivate them to expand their musical repertoire, that makes them like an alternative rock song I called a rap song. Stupid.

[@CERTAIND00M]

I would watch this movie once a day for the rest of my life if it contained your Danny DeVito ending.

I wish so badly there existed an interview of Stephenie Meyers where the interviewer tries to tell her how fucking insane and poorly written and creepy her work truly is.

[@Moist_Handshakes]

I want to read a psych eval on her. Anyone know of any?

[@BrappyHour]

YMS is the best at finding scenes to slowdown for comedic effect.

[@lnfreeman]

Kudos to this Max Irons guy for recognizing and challenging the problematic themes in this film without putting down any of the participants in its production. That's some fancy footwork, mate.

[@brendanjohn6539]

"Why do I need to see the host?" "OH GOD!" And there you have it, all the interviews show that even the actors don't want to be there

[@annemarie4305]

That grunt response at 8:25 is the funniest thing I've heard all week.

[@INvalidSYNapse]

I'm really starting to like this trend of the single cast member in a Stephanie Meyer adaptation who's more than willing to call out the story, its author, and its fans on their ridiculous bullshit.

[@LibraGamesUnlimited]

You know what you get when an alien comes inside you? A burst chest. No thank you.

*cuts herself* *walks into the healing shop* "I need healing"

why is every scene so awwwkward

[@MTdaBlacking]

Because no one wanted to be there. No one.

[@jonathansalvador5037]

I would have laughed at the "in vein" joke even without the following 19 seconds of awkward silence.

[@Xarr23]

20:48 perfect opportunity for an Archer "phrasing!"

[@Prich1010]

Does she have an Australian, Irish, Southern or British accent? She switches between them like she's just trying to fuck with everyone.

[@jarmakey1]

Maybe it changes when she's nervous. I know my accent comes out stronger when I'm angry.

[@Mr.Doctor.Professor.Patrick]

irish

[@Tightwad981]

I'd say her accent is more of the FALSE variety than any other sort of accent.

[@amoscaul3264]

She is from the Bronx originally, living in an Irish neighborhood. And I think she move to Ireland at a young age, hence her accent.

[@deltoroperdedor3166]

No more annoyingly long names So you hava a London or standard American accent most of the time, but when you're angry you go full Scottish?

[@xLiLlyx98]

14:00 now thats way more chemistry there than anywhere in the movie...

[@TheSonicChaotix]

18:06 Holy shit, I fucking lost it here. "Give me a reason, in 15 seconds, why I need to see this movie." "Oh god..." XD HIS REACTION IS FUCKING PRICELESS

[@bloodrunsclear]

Um...what the hell does Radioactive have to do with The Host? O_o

[@marthia8015]

bloodrunsclear I don't think anyone knows that. But, even funnier, some versions of the book include as bonus material a playlist written by Stepehnie Meyer herself that consists mostly of Linkin Park (the main one I remember being Papercut, which was supposed to fit the scene when Wanderer discovers that Melanie is still in her mind) and All American Reject songs, that don't fit the story or the tone at all, or songs that are probably only in there because they have words like "body" or "soul" somewhere in the lyrics. One even had "soul" in the title, if I remember it correctly, and nothing else in common with the story. So the franchise has a history with unfitting music.

[@hinasakukimi]

Bianca Mayer omg you're kidding me, there's no way some versions had a playlist

[@marthia8015]

***** I'm not kidding. It was in the version of the book that I've read (which was the german translation) alongside with an interview with Stephenie Meyer and some other extra stuff.

[@hinasakukimi]

Bianca Mayer n o p e

[@leeeverett6195]

+hinasakukimi A bit off topic, but some versions of the book "Divergent" include a playlist written by the author, so this seems to be a growing trend in bad YA novels.

[@ThatLittleKitten]

You calling every random person "Randy" prompted me to do it. Sometime last year, my mom got a call and asked who it was from. Of course I said, "some Randy," yet it turned out the guy's name was Randy lol
