Casey Finnigan posted:I have seen no evidence, ever, for this "Japan hates Lilo" theory. Only thing I've seen is the show Stitch! is set in Okinawa because Paul Candland who worked at Disney Japan wanted to make a show set there, where he lived for a while. Lilo doesn't appear in the show because she's an adult when the show takes place and lives in Hawaii. it comes from massive dipshits like that dude making wild assumptions based on nothing but their own glassed-out brains

Lilo was cut from Japanese cartoon, must be reason. Time to extrapolate something about entire culture instead of just executives doing random poo poo based on dumb whims. There is however at least one person on tumblr who really really hates Lilo and gets brought up and conflated in these conversations. But I'm pretty sure it's just one person like the Silent Hill circumcision guy.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xa4Ge7E-4ZA Danny spends months and thousands of dollars trying to get a song to go viral on TikTok. Danny does this every once in a while where he spends a lot of time and money on a goof. Like previously he (attempted) to spend $20k on internet ads in an attempt to see if those weird Instagram ads actually work.

I went ahead and looked this up just to verify what I'm talking about and uh alright now I'm confused as hell too because I can't figure out where that came from either, despite a whole loving lot of people believing it and passing "Japan hates Lilo" around as uncontroversial fact, and the best guess to where the hell this came from seems to actually be that people apparently misinterpreted something the English dub of the Stitch anime added. and/or Kingdom Hearts fans noticing that Stitch is in there and not Lilo, combined with similarly apocryphal stories of Japanese audiences loving hating Chihiro from Spirited Away and that possibly getting telephone-gamed into Lilo. I self owned there but it seems like I stumbled into a weird rear end rabbit hole in the process and I am genuinely curious how deep this goes

Today, Doctor Sparkle has posted his first somewhat shorter in game range Chrontendo episode. 10 games, possibly so he doesn't feel super pressured into posting a one hour behemoth of research for a bunch of titles every like, 8 months or so. Given the videos he posted beforehand, his shorter scope videos will make it less harsh on his body, given all of the stuff he went thru recently, even before COVID started. And it's NEARLY 2 hours lmao

muscles like this! posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xa4Ge7E-4ZA I came across this guy somewhat recently, mostly cause of this song he made: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGtgT5uOtnQ Which if you watch the original video it's from, the jokes in the song make more sense. But the song on its own is still like... a really good song. He attempts to parody Justin Beiber's song and just ends up making a really good song. He's made some good songs in general: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQqydMZjYFE The way he talks and his delivery is just really funny to me, my only thing is I wish he would do less "let's make fun of this instagram or tiktok person" even if they are deserving of mocking, and focus more on things like doing videos about lovely animated movies, or The Santa Clause, or something cause those are his best stuff. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bW-gVrZBfqM Seriously I love his breakdown of The Santa Clause (and it also comes with a song!)

Some online reviewers that I've encountered that I have opinions about -- apologies in advance for any possible repeats (edited to include some examples): * Vito's reviews of Rise of Skywalker and The Last Jedi were entertaining. Quinton Reviews's TRoS review was pretty great too, as was Jenny Nicholson's, as was RLM's, but they were all mentioned already. * blameitonjorge has a lot of well-researched, offputting-but-in-a-good-way videos. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jk8Oln7D_60 * Pop Culture Detective has very well-researched & -edited pop culture/trope critiques. The "Born Sexy Yesterday" video is just so, so, so disgusting, informative, and insightful -- same with the ones about male sexual assault as comedy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0thpEyEwi80 YeahTubaMike fucked around with this message at 23:58 on Oct 21, 2020 |

Since this is a new thread, I'll share once again that I have a thread in Post My Favorites where I post lots of videos I watch that I think are worth sharing. They're not all videos that would fit in this thread (since it's all based on my personal tastes) but I think people who read this thread might find some interesting stuff in there.

YeahTubaMike posted:* Mysterious Mr. Enter has a lot of interesting insights on animation, good and bad. That said, once I realized that he makes at least one "this might be the worst [thing] I've ever seen in my life" statement per Animated Atrocities video, it kind of ruined it for me. I guess you haven't heard but Mr. Enter is a huge chud. They say insane poo poo like "false rape accusations are an epidemic" and "BLM is a terrorist group" I'd avoid him

Baller Ina posted:Stumbled across this guy somehow about a week ago and can confirm, its a neat channel. He tries his best to recreate drinks from fiction/video games, and tastes each one and gives you a pretty thorough review of each. There's also some videos about real-life stuff, including a video about gross drinks that really appeared in recipe books, which surprised me. I though the video was going to be "let's mix random gross stuff and taste it!" but no, beef fizz really did show up in history at some point! One of his counterparts is The Educated Barfly: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCu9ArHUJZadlhwt3Jt0tqgA A little more dry than How To Drink but also a good source of info. Both have kinda exhausted the well of common cocktails by now and are doing more experimental ones but both are good; I prefer TEB for a little lighter on the zany. For a little more SCIENCE! you can try out https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-o0CfpOyFJOfyWKtqS1hZQ Cocktail Chemistry. Neither of these delve quite as much into pop culture HTD but they're interesting channels. And useful when you're locked down for several months with an adequate supply of alcohol.

I haven't seen those posts from Mr. Enter that Jamie is referencing but also I mostly stopped watching him after he made a series of videos about social media platforms that clearly showed he was out of his depth yet he continued making them. It's too bad because I mostly enjoyed his review videos (taking into account his somewhat strange tastes) but those told me he didn't really know his own limits. Also at some point I unsubscribed from him but I can't remember exactly why/when... *looks at his upload history* oh it's a video about the pandemic from April where the first five minutes basically boils down to "social distancing requirements are ~a massive government overreach~".

yea even without that poo poo mr enter is a complete shallow wad who can't actually review storytelling or anything. Like, watch two videos and it becomes clear he thinks characters doing bad things mean they're the bad guy even if A) it's a loving joke show or B) it's a not joke show and the bad thing is setup for them to learn a lesson and all, and he seems to genuinely get confused by people interacting in ways deeper than 'hello batman I am the villain' 'hello villain I am the batman I'm going to punch your dick now' 'oh no not my dick, that's the place I least want to get punched'.

With all that said the amount of harassment the guy gets is unwarranted. Criticizing his analysis and his weird takes is one thing but there is a Chris-chan style hate group that actively torments him. Don't be like that.

If you're in to pokemon and want something to put on in the background, Jrose11 does a bunch of videos where he tries to beat Pokemon Red/Blue (and very occasionally other titles) with just one pokemon, no items allowed in battle. This ranges from the actual starters, to legendaries, to an Abra that he's not allowed to evolve and can only teach physical moves. His videos can be pretty long and it's not exactly super riveting content visuals-wise, which is why I recommend it more as a background thing, but I've quite enjoyed his stuff.

sexpig by night posted:yea even without that poo poo mr enter is a complete shallow wad who can't actually review storytelling or anything. I think the only storytelling critique I saw him get right was the one about the Arthur episode where Arthur punches DW after she spends at least a whole day torturing him. quote:Like, watch two videos and it becomes clear he thinks characters doing bad things mean they're the bad guy even if A) it's a loving joke show or B) it's a not joke show and the bad thing is setup for them to learn a lesson and all, and he seems to genuinely get confused by people interacting in ways deeper than 'hello batman I am the villain' 'hello villain I am the batman I'm going to punch your dick now' 'oh no not my dick, that's the place I least want to get punched'. I'm trying not to defend him while also trying not to backpedal, because I have enjoyed a few of his videos, but I realize that what I like about them is specifically about his animation-related takes and the animations themselves -- cheap production, the various ways in which production CAN be cheap, bad voice acting, etc.. The atrocities in particular are like museum artifacts, and I guess I never cared all that much what he has to say about the actual plots. At any rate, it's probably best that we all forget about him regardless.

Oh yeah, I get it. I use to watch him too. He's in the same vein as early nostalgia critic where it's just some guy making fun of obviously bad media. That can be alot of fun even if it's shallow analysis. YeahTubaMike posted:At any rate, it's probably best that we all forget about him regardless.

Re: The Lilo hate, it was only partially that the two OPs found Lilo to be an obnoxious, unlikable child and hog tied themselves up in loopy justifications for why she should have been more rational and mature. They also digressed into this whole thing about native Hawaiians being racist against white people and somehow thought the movie supported "Kill Haole Day" because they're right-wing racists who support child detention centers. On top of all that, they thought the movie took place in the 1970s despite it obviously being set in then-present day (you can even see Nani bought a New Beetle in the end credits!)

I'm not seeing a patreon for either of them, but I just did a quick backwards search from googling "bad Lilo and Stitch takes" and looked at their twitter/tumblr accounts. If I remember right, the whole thing started with one of them ranting in a twitch stream about Lilo and Stitch and dumping her thoughts on tumblr later, but she's deleted the original posts now so it's hard to tell.
