They weren’t nearly mean enough to Eternals, but the movie doesn’t give them a lot to work with and they did their best.

Jose Oquendo posted:The Marvel movies have been really bad for a while now and they’re finally sick of them, rightfully so. They’re not even movies anymore, they’re soulless products designed to just get you to line up for next pile of slop. Yeah, as someone who enjoyed a lot of MCU movies early on, since Endgame especially it feels like they've really run out of juice. I don't think there's any need to be gentle and considerate when critiquing the biggest blockbusters in the world, especially when it seems like they've realized they can just coast on fan-service/brand familiarity and everyone will still buy tickets.

Prop Wash posted:It’s silly to say that when they’ve been generally positive on many marvel products recently, with Jupin saying on the Eternals episode that last year had way more hits than misses from marvel studios. It's mainly confined to twitter, but they've also been reasonably positive about a lot of the Marvel TV stuff recently. As someone who has seen every MCU film in theaters and will continue to do so until the end of time, with the exception of maybe one or two of them my mindset leaving the theater is--at worst--"that was a fun 2 hours". I even thought Eternals was "fine", but all of their criticism of them all is spot on. They know what they're talking about and aren't feigning some kind of outrage to get video hits. If I had a bigger film background/appreciation I'd probably be more in line with their complaints more often. In conclusion: bring back sex/intimacy in movies and also bring back squibs.

New Once in a Lifetime "Stalked by my Doctor" went up today

precision posted:or they'll make fun of alt-right shitheads for being all "wokeism gone mad!", but then they'll do the same "woke-ism has gone too far" thing by talking about how you "can't show sex in movies anymore", and it's like... the exact, literally exact same tone and argument and it's like Do they attribute the lack of sex in movies as "wokeism gone too far", though? I don't think they have pointed the finger at any movement aside from it being a modern Hollywood/Disney thing. They even made fun of the sex scene in Eternals because it was post-marital sex.

Yeah, I didn't want to jump in because I'm behind on their most recent episodes, but in the past they've just repeated Angelica Bastien's point about movie's being very chaste anymore now that there's a huge fear of making anything above a PG-13 and most studios being Disney now. Less "This sucks I wanna see tits" and more concern over a lack of passion/romance in stories  .

I didn't know what to expect from the third Stalked by my doctor movie , but a song and dance number wasn't it . This episode plus the one about MORBIUS the new marvel legend, all in one week, we are getting spoiled .or punished, I did have to actually watch morbius .

They’re not even movies anymore, they’re soulless products designed to just get you to line up for next pile of slop. I wonder what franchise they'll say this about yet again in 10 years. We've gone from Star Wars to Transformers to the MCU. It's an exciting time. secretly best girl posted:Is... is that a response to the Morbius episode? Because I feel like that's a film earning the savaging. It's also not really a "Marvel Movie", it's one of Sony's "THIS IS WHAT YOU KIDS LIKE, RIGHT" efforts that falls flat on its' loving face. Pretty much what Venom would have done the first time around if not for campy Tom Hardy weirdness. Now Eternals is a "Marvel Movie" but still deserved its' savaging. The only entertainment I got out of that movie is laughing every time I saw the Marvel Legends figures tied into the movie sitting on the clearance shelf.

I'm wondering if my download got a little glitched or if they actually went harder on that than they felt comfortable releasing so it was a clumsy edit?

Years ago WHM and Gilbert's podcast (which is really loving good) were on the same podcast network so that's how they made the interview happen. They went to his apartment and conducted it. It's been a while since I listened to it but it's really good. According to their episode guide spreadsheet, it's in the main feed, episode #260. edit: Even better, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQlaL3D8Gr0 Jose Oquendo fucked around with this message at 16:35 on Apr 13, 2022 |

There were definitely a few spots where they cut something out or maybe just took a break while recording. It was just dead silent out of nowhere and it confused me the first time it happened.

It was so great that they did Last Airbender and were SO SURE it was the worst thing they'd ever done, but then 2 weeks later Ultraviolet knocked it out of the water. Also begs the question: as of right now, what is the gang's updated "this is the worst one we've had to do"? I feel like I know for a fact they've said "worse than Ultraviolet" sometime in the past 2 years but I can't remember what movie caused it.
