I'm glad Roger finally got to show off his full range of athleticism.
I hear he does all his own stunts!
That just happened!
They need more excuses to put Roger into a morph/green screen suit.
That was only 3% of his true power.
That just happened
“What are movies, but corporate profits persevering?” Is an immortal quote.
As immortal as the corporate profits 🙏
For those who didn't get the joke, it's altered "what is grief if not love persevering" quote from WandaVision
This is going to be my yearbook quote.
Well said and think of everyone who makes money off of these systems they are critical off. New age of making money no real use, the world would go on without it, just entertainment.
It get's me every time..... 😂
No one else spreads cynicism with the artistry of Roger.
No one else spreads artistry with the cynicism of Roger
I thoroughly enjoy watching Roger on my Horton's Reality Escaping Electric Brick.
@@Myxril*nod nod* I feel quite attached to my brick... Wait...
Maybe people are finally realizing Marvel is trash
Cynicism is the only thing keeping me alive at this point, you'd be shocked if you knew how true this is
3:38 I'm honestly amazed at how many people don't realize this is deliberate. Channels include a couple of factual errors, or an outrageously hot take, specifically so that people will yell at them in the comments. Cracked could get a full Horton video about "If RUclipsrs were honest" talking about shady engagement techniques.
I would like to see this.
This is a great idea.
we're all waiting to see this one and we'll look at it for a few minutes and maybe go back a few times and then move on like it never existed - just how they like it to get you to the next video for more engagement.
Mr. Freeman Covers this pretty well.
The Reddit one is 100% real too! All those pages on Facebook steal things from “ask reddit” and make lists about “worst customers ever!” Or “you won’t believe what happened at their jobs!”
“we created a feedback loop of precious, precious hype”…, yep, hit the nail on the head
Getting multiple ads of Ant-Man advertising alcohol-free Heinekin during this video might be the first time an ad has enhanced and built upon the themes of the main video.
now I want to see ads just for that. I love the intellectual, plant-based, alcohol-free direction the MCU goes in. The parallels between the MCU and HCU are remarkable lol. It really makes me wonder if there's a parallel world of untapped entertainment out there just waiting to be seen.
jesus christ, get an adblocker...you brainlet
can't wait for If Rodger was Honest
If that just Happens was Honest ..
It's like the Honest Trailer has an Honest Trailer
It's like the Honest Trailer has an Honest Trailer
If RUclips was honest...
We at Horton's Hortons make videos of a strawman pretending to be an old man, calling himself Roger, speaking to a camera, parodying things that your cynical side, at least sometimes secretly believes to be true. All while sprinkling the whole thing with varying degrees of humor.
All this is targeted at subjects Horton's Hortons analysts have concluded to produce the optimum level of knee-jerk reaction in the maximum amount of people, providing *you* with an easy target to laugh at, to make money of your distrust of large organizations, all while avoiding any actual ambiguity of the real world, that might make you think, because let's face it. That's not what you're on the internet for.
I've been Rodger, by the way.
And remember. We're on your side. 😉
(or something like that)
I loved the part when Roger said:"It's rogerin' time!", and rogered all over the place!
I love a good Rogering!
I'm rogering right now watching Roger! I'm almost finished!
Very good point.
That just rogered!
That just happened
The return of Roger wearing the astronaut headgear and using a toy blaster was the comedy I needed this morning lol
It's something I can never unsee....
YES LOL
I will cry if he ever retires. His delivery is just perfect! 😂
Roger would never retire, but he's much too important to do actual work forever, so he'll make a perfect robot version of himself to continue doing this indefinitely while the real him collects the pay, and no one will suspect a thing. At least not until he's 150 years old and still making content.
If the person who wrote this script wrote ONE SCENE in the MCU, it would be the best one in 5 years
this whole thing is too accurate to marvels current state, no time and effort. its annoying.
@@sidneyrester6100it's been like that for years, no reply value but the fans love it.
MCU needs to be more self-aware.
First one ever*
It would be the best one ever. The MCU has always been trash
"briefly acknoledges that gay people exist ... in certain countries" 😂
So funny 😂😂
They really exist? I thought they were all just fakers promoting the rainbow because they're in it for the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
Horton lampoons more than just comic book movies, he gawks the entire film industry, like a boss.
It doesn't take much, they are just comic book geeks. They are even lower class than the smart nerds.
like a bowzzz!
@@minirock000 This is coming from the guy that made a video called "Star Wars Galaxies Love Story".
I guess looking in that mirror every day can be taxing I am sure.
And RUclips while he's at it....
@@trollking6315 Hey comic nerd! Tell me your story of the pain you feel when you glance in a mirror, yo see the forth grader that stayed at that reading level. You delayed the entire class while reading aloud. I guess it is hard to blame someone for liking comics movies if that is all they can read and understand. Really it is not your fault, you can't fix genes, you can only hate your parents for having a bad mix.
I in no way take credit for the video made from the game SWG. I have the video although it is copyrighted because I am not an idiot that thinks youtbe is for profiting from a hobby. Those same people probably like comics movies. (mouth-breathers)
Welcome to the webernets! A two year old account, which parent and or guardian assisted in setting your account up? Or perhaps you had one of your many adult children assist you when they came around to wipe your adult-diapers. No I would wager you wouldn't be able to make a well-adjusted human that had a sense of responsibility to anyone other than themselves. troll king, oh yes, the king of shit.
Respect to Emily Cuevas. Had a great 121 year run (1900 -2021) and contributed to the HCU well into her 110s
That's working your fingers to the bone!
Even a fictional superduocentenarian can't beat Jeanne Calment.
I always knew Roger must have the build of a Greek god.. thanks to that tight blue spandex leotard he was wearing its now confirmed.. I’ve been Rogered!!😅
Roger = Zeus
Burst out laughing at "The Sun's going down." (4:06)
The tricycle part was priceless.
I am quite proud of that haha. Just a stupid idea we had last minute based on some crap lying around the studio we were renting.
Ngl, found it kinda creepy. Would hate to be chased by a green screen guy on a tricycle
@@lyndonwesthaven6623 What do you mean, there was clearly no one on that tricycle.
It's doubly funny knowing that is, basically, what those sorts of shots often look like IRL. Actors trying to act while a small army of wannabe green ninjas wave objects around.
It is funny, but I vaguely recall some interview where Ian McKellen said he had a major bout of depression after filming Lord of the Rings due to the extensive time in front of greenscreens making him feel like he wasn’t a real actor anymore.
Roger is a Gem to RUclips. He tells it like it is all while being fun and entertaining.
This just in, Disney+ has just launched 27 more Star wars spinoffs
I just realised the huge failures of the sequel trilogy is only reason that did not happen.
Or the reason why it won't happen for a bit more
Really? Did R2D2, C3PO, and Chewbacca get their own spinoffs yet?
Roger is an icon, and he looks like he had fun doing all the silly shenanigans in this video. also, jordan's moustache is looking very epic.
I love it when Roger America says, "That just happened." I laughed for days after seeing that movie.
the tricycle metaphor for grief got me
This one doesn't have a ton of "sources", but don't forget to check out our online store (the-cracked-dispensary.creator-spring.com/listing/new-roger-horton-tennis-chihua?product=46). Happy Movies!
I wish you guys would do, if honest ads were honest 😜... I think it will be super funny🤩
(Roger man) Needs to be a movie just for the shear stupidity of it!
One of the workers that starved to death was apparently 121 years old.
Roger is an absolute gem, and I swear to god Cracked you're on thin ice as it is, so if Roger goes I an 100% done with this channel
So you want to... Cracked the ice? 😁
Same Cracked has always been the Roger channel for me
I genuinely forget they do other stuff besides him.
On thin ice? Dude, they literally fired everyone already and re-hired some new guys. This isn't really Cracked, just some people under the old name. Roger is just an actor they hired again for continuity purposes
I thought it was just me and maybe a few others that thought this. I even looked if there was a way to subscribe to Roger but not Cracked.
“What are movies, except for corporate profits, preserving?”
I would pay a lot to see Thicc Roger: The Thickening
4:25 "it's a metaphor for my grief" legitimatly sounds like some line from the MCU if they still did metaphors
I like the self-callout for Cracked's adherence to clickbait titles. "[X] Things about [Y] that are [Z]... Something about YOU!!"
"Digital punch and judy shows" hits harder than any blow in the movies
Roger is a fucking treasure to all of humanity. Protect this man at all costs.
I clicked 'liked' as soon as I saw the CEO of Horton Studios. Been waiting for an interview with that guy. Best movies I've ever seen.
With some clever editing I can make Roger my hype man. "That just happened."
Lady Roger doesn't quite grasp the fourth wall break satire. Rogerpool understands this better.
Dear Cracked,
Please don’t drop Roger’s series.
Dear Roger,
Please live a long, healthy life ❤
Or else no one will teach us about the secrets of everything 😂
I have good news for you...
Considering Cracked started as a comic book (I have a bunch of my Dad's old comics), this really brings everything full circle.
The tricycle with no rider is a metaphor for my life line, OMG I'm crying hahahahahaha
“If American Idol was honest,“
“if the American criminal justice system was honest,“
“if tabloid talk shows were honest,“
“if record labels were honest,“
“if the media -“ (from MSNBC to Fox News and/or OAN) “was honest,”
“if American TV game shows were honest“…
Just a few suggestions for future “Honest Ads.“ so glad you guys have started doing these again recently.
"That just happened".
Now it's stuck in my head.
Lol
Next, a three and a half hour video connecting the plots of ALL the movies you've remade for $20 into the Cracked Cinematic Universe!! Or just Summarize all the Puppet Masters, I'd watch that too.
Ha maybe someday!
Roger Horton is my favorite supervillain
Can you please go into detail the type of diet and exercise routine Roger needed to maintain in order to be in those blockbuster movies. I can't find anything anywhere about this, and I would personally like to dream that I could have his physique one day.
If Roger Hornton is in a movie, I will pay to see it. Keep me notified for the release.
Roger is the only name I trust for the truth
Jordan is going full ScreenRant with his up nexts.
Roger exposing Stan Lee...priceless. All of the Artists and Writers of the original comic books who got screwed over by Stan Lee Thank You.
Jack Kirby actually made a character named "Funky Flashman" who looked similar to Lee after leaving Marvel Comics to work at DC. Funky Flashman was a greedy businessman who tried to milk Mister Miracle's show tour. It was never specifically stated that Funky was a caricature of Lee, though.
Steve Ditko also didn't get along with Lee the best and he left Marvel to work at Charlton Comics (the distant #3 in comics behind Marvel Comics and DC; they introduced Blue Beetle, the Question, Peacemaker, Nightshade, and Judomaster... they went out of business and were bought by DC; the Charlton Comics characters joined DC in the 80's after Crisis on Infinite Earths changed some things). Ditko revamped quite a bit at Charlton Comics and produced, to this day, some of my favorite comics.
Don't get me wrong, I think Lee likely had some good ideas. However, guys like Kirby and Ditko seemed to have very similar problems working with him, so it's reasonable to assume that there were some issues.
This video summarized the critical drinkers rage in a nutshell 😂
Hes another favorite of mine... Thats all I got, Go Away Now
IMHO the critique here feels a little more honest than critical drinker's.
Critical Drinker is a manbaby who resents having to share his toys with women/minorities.
They didn't even said THE MESSAGE, best part of critical drinker
You had me at "Air Bud Origins"
7:01 imagine having the same flexibility at 70+ (?) years, mad respect to Roger.
The tricycle was the best 🤣
Looking forward to the CGI fan edit's of Roger in front of the green screen.
This guy makes me laugh every time almost to the point it hurts.
I've been reading comics for 30 years, and I used to be ashamed of it. One silver lining of the MCU is that now people come to me asking about stuff, and I can point them in the right direction like some sort of Superlibrarian.
W.
It's proof that nerd stuff is cool when sensationalized through actors
Yeah, comic books have become way more socially acceptable. Plus, a bit more of the general public reads comics now. It's not a huge number of people, but it's a fairly substantial increase to the comic-reading crowd (which normally wouldn't matter much, but it means that more comic reprints are being produced, particularly things which have never been reprinted at all).
Sometimes it means that you see a great comic turned into a mediocre movie, but there are lots of comic movies which I have greatly enjoyed. Occasionally it results in odd conversations with non-comic fans (like people being surprised that Pepper Potts married Happy Hogan, Tony's bodyguard/chauffeur who dated Aunt May in the movies, rather than Tony himself). However, those odd conversations can also be amusing.
no...people still won't read them! belive me I know
@@rpghero46 True. DC and Marvel failed miserably at attracting a comic audience because their comics, while the movie heyday lasted, were racist and sexist beyond belief. That's why Japanese Manga has outsold the West for years. Speculating is the only thing keeping comics in the West alive. Signed-- a former comic fan😪
Using the same roger pog face for every poster was *chefs kiss*
How isn't this channel got atleast 500k subscribers
It's relatively new. I used to watch him on cracked but just found this
Man, I love this. It's spot on. These movies are not made so that you can have lovely experiences with familiar characters from your childhood, friends!
It's gotten to the point where I don't even go to see any of these movies. It's not because I hated any of them, it's just that I don't really remember they exist because they bring so very little to the table if you're not one of those obsessive fanboys that read decades of comics and now spends half their time obsessing over possible castings or when plotlines will be used.
I do get that that can be fun, but when that's like 99% of the experience, I don't see any purpose to paying to see the movie.
Nice job Rodger, you're finally a comic book superhero. Although you are also known as a commercial superhero, who tells the truth about whatever topic you're covering. I would definitely say that you are some form of vigilante.
I am convinced that all the bits with him in various doofy outfits and wigs in front of a greenscreen was not actually scripted and they just handed him a camera and a bin full of wardrobe and said 'have fun'.
“Review Bombing.” 5:19 One of the best excuses crappy movies can make to deny that they suck.
Yeah, 100% accurate. I've always wondered how much people who make claims about review bombing actually believe it themselves. And, frankly, forgettable movies cater to a definite market segment.
A sci-fi movie made in the 50's probably has terrible special effects and cheesy acting, but they can still be a nice evening with friends and microwave popcorn. Not something worth going to the theater for (especially with ticket prices now), but it fills a definite place in the market as a Friday night on the living room couch watching Tokyo be destroyed by what is clearly a guy in a dinosaur costume stepping on toy cars.
Not all movies are meant to be cinematic masterpieces. Now, they also shouldn't all expect the box office returns of cinematic masterpieces either, and that seems to be the actual problem. Review bombing is one thing, expecting massive profits disproportionate to the effort expended is another. I can enjoy even a movie which isn't very good, like Batman & Robin (1997). It wouldn't be worth the price of admission to bring the family to a theater for that level of quality though, and I certainly wouldn't go on my own without family (that would be less fun, so it wouldn't be worth the price just for me either).
@@calebowens693Netflix used to be a great place to catch such movies: a fun way to spend an evening but not worth movie-theater prices.
They could just be a future cult classic.
It's adorable when people try to play stupid about review bombing.
Then insist that bad movies starring white men are objectively better than flawed movies starring anyone else.
Then again, the anti woke crowd are stupid enough to believe Trump won the election, so the bar was always set low for them.
They'll fall for any grift.
I am commenting for better reach so that his kids get food to eat XD
I appreciate that! Having my third kid in a couple weeks haha
I would pay good money to see Lady Roger Season 4.
A surprising and impressive number of people born in the 1900's and 20's were included in that in memoriam list.
Lady Roger Season 4 is a fuckin brilliant joke that goes under the radar
Today I learned what swarthy and pablum mean. Thanks, Roger!
Still waiting on Thicc Roger 3: The Thicc and the Dead
HGU create a generation of zombies following anything with their logo on!
Good ole Roger breaking down the bs once again. You are appreciated, good sir. 👍🏼
"Air Bud Origins". I laughed so hard I snorted.
Show me "air bud origins"
The internet needs it.
This is Jordan’s last cracked video :(
I’ll still be doing some contract stuff, but yeah pretty much everything after this one isn’t really me!
Wow, Punch and Julie name drop. That's awesome and also Mime and Marinette are my favorite duo
This was a perfect Cracked storm. The most epic personalities converge in a singular project. So much force...so much melodrama...so much sarcasm.
I love it. Fantastic job, gentlemen.
I would see Rodger Movie opening night and wait in a 25 hr movie line just to say how much I love it on Google reviews.
Me too!
“Thicc Roger” is nasty work 😂
Welp, there it is. The final proof that all the good ideas have been exhausted. Call it boys, time of death, now-ish.
I was expecting plenty of things from you folks, gonna have to catch up with your stuff. This is brilliant, good job team btw.
You're right this is the only skit we actually ever wanted good channel creation idea
as someone who doesn’t even watch super hero movies even for free, most of this was lost on me.
Glad it wasn't just me
The accuracy of this interview is top tier
Roger you'll always be my hero.
I burned out on ALL so called Comic Book Movies about 20 years or so ago!! In fact the one TV show that was later turned into a comic book was Firefly/Serenity, is about one of very few I actually enjoy, and the other comic book movie I have followed is Guardians of the Galaxy!!! And I am fed up with all these being labeled as "Science Fiction" when better Sci Fi, stories and movies are ignored!! Further the writing on many of these so called "films" has gotten so predicable that, it is hard to watch another Spiderman remake or Iron Man movie, without knowing how the movie will end, AS it begins to play!! There is ZERO unforeseen plot twists and the story "surprises" are as unimaginable as if they were written by a five year old with a crayon and a roll of tape!! Even the character arcs are not worth mentioning either!! Yet how many times do we need to be reminded of how "Batman begins"?????
Most of these have been so over played it would be like listening to the Micheal Jackson song Thriller for the next 20 years of your life, over and over and over again, every minute of every day of those same twenty years!! Or more to the point.......you'd be begging to listen to nails against a chalkboard at that point!!!
One of the smarter moves of the Marvel Spiderman movies was to jump straight in and not show the 'spider-bite, uncle Ben dies' bit: we already know that stuff and it would have been very annoying to sit through another hour of that old yarn.
Tldr
Blockbuster = We spent a fuck-ton of money
They should start calling them Bankbusters.
I’m so glad this series is back!
That just happened... Brilliant
I love how you snuck in "Air Bud Origins".
The movie posters.
THIS VIDEO IS COMEDIC GENIUS!
What better end roll than a “Star Trek Fleet Command” commercial where some guy in green face and a Star Trek uniform picks a guy out of a coffee shop line.. tells him “we need you” and beams them both out? Mic Drop !!
Captain Roger and Airbud Origins, those were some good movies!
0:29 airbud origins😭🤣
Mark and Jordan work well together. A Super Duo!
I love working with Mark!
@@Drjordanbreeding Know who is going to be taking over as full edit for the future videos yet, or will there be an announcement? Either way, thank you for keeping Cracked going for so long, and bringing it back from the dead!
@@Mathadar Probably depend on the thing. There will probably be new shows and contractors and stuff. I'm not sure!
Can't wait for the actual release of Air Bud Origins.
Please continue to make content because this is hilarious but so true 😂
Wait until Roger calls his canadian brother Tim..
Wait a minute.......... is that a GrayStillPlays reference?
You get Tim'd every time you drink their toasted bean water
Awesome! I love these "real" vids. It's hilarious!
4:06. As if Roger in a gimp suit wasn't enough, Roger as The Black Widow OMFG!
This gives me costume ideas for the upcoming RogerCon convention!
As a devoutly proud MCU stan, I was deeply offended the entire time due to how accurate it all was. I understand all the subtle jabs at Marvel and how they view us as money dispensaries. And yet, still looking forward to ANT-MAN QUANTUMANIA knowing that it's all formulaic and designed to never fully satisfy. ☺️
...well thanks for coming out to the world as a mark.... Would you likde to buys some stuff? I have bridges, scripts for sheleved movies, a beautiful timeshare, loads of single women in your area and several NFTS, crypto projects and many other investment opportunities available for the person willing to take a chance on happiness.....
I feel same.... I am salivating even though I already have an idea of how the movie will go. We are hopelessly addicted at this point, folks 😆
@@ChineduOpara no argument there. I need my next MCU bad too even though I too expect some level of disappointment that I won't notice until after. Like all other Marvel films...
@@TheLastNewYorker Indeed. Also, I can confidently assert that Phase 1 was the Best Phase. Everything else (besides WandaVision) is... "meh". At least to me.
I prefer the 50s - 00s cinematic universe, pure classics
The Rodger Verse is something I’ll get into!
The writing at 4:52 should have been more like "And to prevent our shareholders from throwing a fit over our ESG score, we're going to race swap and gender bend as many characters as we can, because the outrage from 'fans' gets the online buzz machine going. Hell, people will buy tickets just to hate watch!"
That's just how Velma is made...
Suns going down Big Guy...lol gold!
