🧐 You're mistaken because your explanation is longer than what you're trying to explain.
The Dictionary: 🤔
🤣🤣🤣
Every word needs an extended version (like a "true name" in magic systems) that's hundreds of letters long, so the meanings will be short enough relatively.
that's actually a great comparison, funny and clever I will use it
For mathematics: the equation could be written on my hand, but the proof for the equation would take 50 pages to explain why it all works. It's truly one of the most anti-intellectual, desperate grasps at argumentation. _No one_ with any honesty tries to bring it up. It's right there with "mucho texto, I'm not reading all that, I'm glad to hear that or I'm sorry for you"" you get from all the terminally online twitter monkeys who think that too many words means you can't be correct (memes not included).
Better reduce it down to a 3-5 word slogan to screech at people when you know you couldn't actually win an argument!
@@Tundra. it's actually funny how often twitter tards post memes with hundreds of words on it and think what is said there is true and disproves anything
Somehow, GDELB returned.
But I watched GDELB die
@@nodot17Dark writing, terrible editing. Secrets only video essayists know!
Is EFAP reusing plotlines again? I thought we already had a GDELB revival with NKB. Or do the two make up a GDELB Dyad?
To be fair, he didn’t actually READ any of the text on the screen, a staple of terrible video essays.
In fact, he just left vague text on the screen because he couldn’t be bothered to do a second take.
I've GDELBed before...
*“RUclips critics are LYING to you!”*
“But you never showed us the context for their argumentation”
*“I don’t have to show you everything. I don’t have to show you anything!”*
“And that just about sums up our time spent here…”
Pretty much. This is such a bad faith video and it’s dripping with smugness, believing it is smarter than it actually is. I understand writing a video or anything is hard but I’d at least redraft my script or outline extensively before I commit to anything. Because I’d want to be precise and concise with my words and references. But what do I know? 😂
I understood that reference. And yes.

😂 No JAR, you are just bad faith TM, even for saying "This didn't work for me" and then having some guy pause your video before anything else comes out of your mouth, is proof.

It's interesting he complains about channels "farming hate clicks" when his entire method appears to be: [insert clip from a 'controversial' RUclipsr], his audience: "OMG! a youtuber I hate! Yeah you're so right! That guy is a liar!"

@jamesavis1 this guy is fighting for the Hypocritical crown, there isn't a single standard he hasn't doubled.
@@joshuabuckle1216 ikr! The last 2 thoughts were deliciously ironic. Creamy Sheev would've been proud.
@@joshuabuckle1216 Pft, pathetic. Everyone knows more standards means more better.
He laughs about the dummies that need a character to explicitly describe the plot to them in Blade Runner. Then, seconds later, he offers his analysis of the true message of the film which is just him repeating a line said by one of the characters nearly verbatim.
What an absolute brainlet.
I had to cleanse my pallette after that part and watch Razorfist's Film Noirchive on Bladerunner again.
Well the morons that watch him won't research it themselves. Though he can say whatever he wants
Well said
He also apparently needs it spelled out for him that FTL exists in the setting, instead of being able to infer that it does by what Roy Batty says and the ads for off-world travel and the space colonies and such that would all need it. So because he was never told it explicitly exists he claims it's a plot hole because he's decided it definitely doesn't when confronted with a line that would imply that it does.
@@chucklebouf5379 After praising that terrible "shut up about plotholes" video which argues that things which are not explicitly stated but which are logical inferrences from the worldbuilding are not plotholes. The man doesn't even agree with his own perspective.
"The plot is the easiest part of a movie to lie about"
Proceeds to lie about the plot of the sequel trilogy and gets immediately called out for lying.
I actually bought that point when I watched the video independently. He did a good job of "ad homineming" me. He said, "Most people don't keep track of the plot of movies/remember the plot of movies." I said, "Yes, that's true. I have a poor memory."
But then, with the help of EFAP, I remembered the wonderful world of moving pictures which documents entire movies in perfect detail.
@@iivin4233I’d of said, “That sounds like a ‘you’ problem, as most people normally don't have a problem with following a basic movie plot. You might need to see a doctor for your apparent issues paying attention to films.”
This video was amazing(ly bad), I loved the parts where he slandered individuals and then told us we shouldn't slander, or the parts where he had no original ideas whatsoever and then told us to think for ourselves.
The Bladerunner segment in particular was excellent
It's a fantastic example of someone with zero self-awareness or original thought because all of his talking points were already said by someone else.
This video convinced me...
1. That Blade Runner is still a truly masterful film.
2. This video essay may have been the most jarring, nonsensical and badly argued string of talking points I've ever seen, combined with a structure that editing actually WORSENED rather than helped. Combine that with his smug, better-than-thou attitude...wow. What's the *opposite* of a diamond in the rough?
@indigo_Gaming Golden turd amongst the mud? I don’t know but yeah you nailed it. I felt stupider after going through this guy’s video. If I was grading this guy’s work, I’d give them an F because of how horribly structured it is and the lack of references/ horrible arguments.
A corn kernel in a pile of shit?
A ball of shit wrapped in gold foil.
A turd on a pedestal?
Or a worm in your apple?
A polished turd?
Dude is a living, breathing GDELB. Holy shit.
The gods of april fools chose an avatar to embody all that is GDELB
This EFAP felt so surreal. I've never seen or heard someone just so unfocused and off-topic. I feel like he would be the type of person who would be held in contempt of court because he would just start talking about his eighth birthday party or something.
He was inspired by in praise of shadows
You could have just said that this guy might be a schizo.
Tbf jay might be friends with mutahar.
@@toko-loverNeed a GDELB style how to video for breadtube hit pieces, could help him and NKB reach those lofty hbomberguy heights they so desperately crave.
This is GDELB material. The entire video.
As an English major, there are no words to describe my utter frustration with so-called “essayists” who don’t provide context and citations for the articles and video clips they use. It is basic knowledge.
Also why do they even call it an essay? What distinguishes it from a regular edit?
Except this wasn't an essay, in fact it was such a shitpost I mistook it for a meta demonstration of how critics lie to you by just hitting you with word salad.
@@Fauwkeshonestly that's a good question at this point. It's basically at the point where people refer to it like a film genre, except even then there's clear hallmarks for what a horror movie is for example. I think it's purely just the presentation at this point for what qualifies as a video essay. Something like this would fail 9th grade English, versus what I would actually consider "essay" would be content people like Matthew Matosis make. You know, actually well constructed scripts meant to inform and discuss a topic on a deep level. If I had to guess I imagine people consider any sort of scripted video where someone drunkenly holds a mic and talks about something for 20 minutes to 5 hours a "video essay". I'm not trying to be disparaging either I just don't know what else really ties such a comically broad format together.
@@Fauwkesbecause it sounds like they’re smart and you know how they love that… they hate it when other people think they’re smarter than the movie but they are true intellectuals…

Can’t believe he legitimately said that.
Knowing he's a journalist makes everything make sense. The lying, the unfair points, the bias, it all fits perfectly into the stereotype while pretending he was getting away from that.

I disinctly remember this guy arguing with people on Twitter about how "The Cenobites in Hellraiser aren't actually evil because they don't understand that their victims don't want to be taken to hell". He then acted all smug and accusing people of the old "Media Illiteracy" while conveniently ignoring all the replies that pointed out the references in the films that proved him wrong
This guys media literacy is just plain literacy
The guy literally just quoted blade runner in an exploration of its own themes
He essentially has the intellect of Organized Chaos.
Both will defend terrible movies because they're massive consumers with the most vapid understanding of politics.
Yeah, and violent sociopaths aren't evil either because their lack of a conscience/empathy inhibits them from understanding the true impact of their actions.

Man, this video took me back. I haven’t seen someone so devoid of self awareness in a long while. Dunning Krueger preaches the valley of stupidity; this is more of a void of idiocy. This is why EFAP has a following. Because I assume the only folks who agreed with this person’s video either didn’t pay attention or have a bias to like it for whatever reason. As much as I may have my disagreements with you guys at times, I am thankful this podcast has helped me with critically thinking more about media. To not just accept things as they are but to question the whys and hows. It’s helped me a lot when crafting my own stories and life. So to all those essayists out there; you want to know why efap has grown? It’s because of folks like you who don’t put in the time and effort to craft good scripts and then debase us for being “media illiterate” or whatever scarlet letter of choice. I’m not buying it one bit.
But have you considered plot holes don't matter?
@@fenixsantos4117 LOL. I’d say if you are ok with plot holes be my guest. Doesn’t mean I or anyone else who points them out have to be ok. Because all of this goes back to verisimilitude and standards. Be consistent in them. For example, I love strike the blood but it is a terrible anime. Entertaining and junk food but I’d never put it as one of the best I’ve seen of the genre.
And really, when you can’t keep basic details together why should I care about your work? It’s like looking a statue and seeing how the proportions are off up close and some cracks. Or worse a giant head on a small body.

Once again... just because Rey scavenges starships doesn't mean she can repair one. Especially not one that is actively being used.
Imagine one of those little kids scavenging the garbage heaps in third world countries fixing your laptop because "I used to take them apart so I know how they work".
And not on a "this cable is loose" level, but on a "this specific part is interfering with the running of your system and needs to be tuned better."
Just because I unscrewed a bunch of parts and cleaned them, doesn't mean I can fix one.
I used to help out with dismantling electronic waste. I've taken apart dozens of routers. I would have no fucking clue how to fix one.
we should hire those children to program our operating systems. Obviously they have invaluable insight and won't just tell us the street value of components.
Actually that’s one of the few things Rey does that I kind of like. She’s shown in the film tinkering and having built things. It’s not an illogical leap from her skill set.
The problem is that she can pilot a starship with ridiculous levels of skill, and even though she’s never left this one planet, she knows how to navigate through hyperspace. Han pointed out the difference between flying in atmosphere (dusting crops, he calls it) and navigating between star systems in ANH.
She’s an ace pilot with no framework for where she’s develop that skill. She’s a crack shot with no framework not evidence she’d ever held a gun. Han even corrects the way she’s holding a blaster earlier but later she’s an expert marksman. She has never even heard of the Force but is using Jedi mind control hours later. She’s never touched a lightsaber and is somehow winning a duel against someone trained for decades.
Her doing this one little repair on the Falcon is feasible compared to the impracticality of everything else. And that’s even a good acting moment for Daisy Ridley, who is thrilled and excited about finding this solution, and you can see how she’s showing off to Han desperate for his approval.
@@TheNoonish I dunno man, it's still far fetched as f*ck, at least they could have done a shot of her with some books or something that she's been gathering.
They could have easily fixed the sequels easily if she was a Jedi apprentice that tinkers with mechanical stuff, her and Kylo go to investigate something, Kylo gets kidnapped (presumed dead), turns to the dark side, same idea (mah themes) much better done in 5 min.
I don't get it, where the fuck is the JJ that supposedly wrote Fringe? Too much cocaine probably
... Or lack of it? 😵💫
To a point I also blame Disney, I mean wtf... Here's the characters you need: Luke, Solo, Chewie, Leia, Lando, C3PO, R2, Rey, Finn, Pilot man, Kylo, asian girl, Roller droid, Phasma, Snoke... It's just too many fucking characters!!!
Most good stories work perfectly fine with 3 to 5 important characters.
Well, in any case, like Mauler said: pick a random person off the street and you could have probably have done a better story 🤣.
@@SniperSX this is a universe where Anakin built a pod racer and a protocol droid from random scrap at age 9. Fixing a single problem with a ship that’s otherwise in working order is absolutely restrained in comparison. It’s all the other stuff that makes her a Mary Sue.

It took me a while but then I recognized the guy. This is a CBR writer who was attacking Eric July during his ISOM first campaign, trying to find any possible excuse to criticize him: from his indie book being too expensive comparatively to main stream stuff (...), to Eric's bias (before reading the comic). At the same time, white knighting in favor of the big two (DC and Marvel) but also claiming he was in favor of indie creators.
He's an ideologue, and not even a smart one. I guess with his job going extinct, he's trying to find his niche in the TLJ defenders dark corner of the internet. Clearly, like any other journo these days, he's five years behind the curve...
When you start to read any of his articles about "Sailor Moon Could Beat Dragon Ball Z's Son Goku, " it becomes no surprise why his career is dying.
@@jjjmadness8306 oh wow, so he's (unintentionally) comedy gold? 😂 I just remember that thing (and I think he had a live call with Rippa at the time)
@@Denien82 Is the live call with Eric is the one where they talked for 45 min and he never gave a single good argument against ISOM comic price, become unhinged, started to insult Eric, talked about World War with Stan Lee and the Nazi and then Eric asked him if he was drunk and then Eric has to cut the conversation? Is it the same guy?
Shows up with his piping hot 2020-era Cinemasins and Lily Orchard critiques: "How do you do, my fellow intelecutals?"
That explains so much really. Stolen takes from ten years ago, inability to argue or handle criticism, super bad 'my side your side' nonsense, inability to do research, no self awareness. Perfect 'professional journalist' credentials.
"The refusal to accept you're wrong."
Oh the fucling irony...
Shouldn‘t it be „accept“?
@@uhrwerk5505that's the irony
@@InitiallyJayKay Somehow, Irony returned
I'm now going to use your unintentional spelling error of "fucling" (fuckling) as a new insult. Thank you for that.
I love how on his community feed he was saying that In Praise of Shadows made a bad video and then released this
He defended IPOS despite everything about he coming to light.
Self-awareness is lacking in a lot of video essayists lol.
IPOS' video should be cited as an influence for his lmfao
I want them to cover the first part of IPOS' video so badly. The Wendigoon segment really overshadowed the rest of the gobbledygook he says in that video.
@@0er069actually he agreed on the part of big channels backlash or something like that, the rest he disagreed completely
The video where Literature Devil talks about Mary Sues in this example is: Why Rey is a Mary Sue and Luke Skywalker is Not.
The beginning part of the video where he talks about Sandman and Superman is only to highlight that while these people posses incredible traits, they aren't necessarily classified as Mary Sues. He goes further into it by stating what he defines is a Mary Sue:
A Character to which the universe and plot bend
- Laws
- People
- Logic
- Common Sense
Devil illustrates that the Universe and Plot do not bend to their needs in a story therefore they do not fit the mold of a mary sue. He goes through the examples of literature for what makes a character a character and what makes them a mary sue.
Devil never added any footage of Man of Steel, this guy did. He completely takes the "Farm Boy defeats Veteran" out of context.
This entire video is built on the premise that all youtube critics are "right-wing grifters" and he did absolutely nothing to give evidence to that belief.
Moviebob school of response videos: applying labels for ease of dismissal. See also Organized Chaos.
You're actually wrong about that because he also talks about two leftists as well.
@@Inurdotno he doesn't. He brings up Anita to them just go on a tangent about feminism and gender
@@YBOT-BITTERs bro, this isn't even his worst video. If you look at his comics, are queer video or why queer love horror, you'll see him even worse.
@@InurdotHe only praised the left wing people as well.
i've noticed that ever since Hbomber's plagiarism video, there has been a steady increase of targeted hit-pieces disguised as community commentaries made by aggressively left leaning content creators.
in praise of shadows' Windigoon video, this abomination, est.
its really funny to see them attempt to character assassinate content creators they don't like, while completely lacking ANY subtlety that Hbomber had and it completely backfiring.
credit where credit is do, at least Hbomber hid his biased hatred and malice for Internet Historian where his own side didn't immediately call him out for it, but i feel like if videos like this keep happening, even Hbomber fans will start to look back at that video with raised eyebrows.
As much as it pains me to complement Hbomberguy, at least he had the decency to be *correct* in his criticisms
I know it’s become such a recurring thing at this point, but man… the way this guy is acting in his comments and twitter is really disheartening. Literally shows one of the most pathetic displays of “I’m open minded actually” then essentially says EFAP is guilty by association.
"I'm trying to show good faith but it's so hard sometimes please clap."
Not even essentially, just literally. His tweets are beyond braindead
@@HerohammerStudios it’s really sad tbh
@@HerohammerStudios Beyond Braindead sounds like an Asylum zombie movie.
@@kingleech16 I'd totally watch that lol
This guy is a pretty good distillation of current day "journalism".
Extreme smugness. Obvious double standards. Extremely bad faith arguments and bad faith in general. Context stripping to the extreme. "Fact checking" things that weren't even asked, LD's Rey/Luke journeys being similiar turned into "BuT rEy DiDn'T bLoW tHe Sk BaSe Up!" or CD's point that a group of macho-macho men with machine guns got floored so what chances does a twig of a girl have turned into "BuT aRnIe DiDn'T uSe MoDeRn WeApOnS!" and general strawmanning while ironically losing to the same strawmen still. - edit - How could I forget, the absolute peak of lacking any self awareness.
In addition, multiple incoherent tangents, lazy editing, no coherent arguments or arguments in general, no original thoughts. Did I mention extreme smugness?

Nothing in this EFAP feels real. It's hard to believe a person like this can even exist.

Funniest part about this episode was Ant pulling the "I succeeded by getting covered by EFAP" card in the aftermath
And then Jay simply replying to that cope with "I'm sorry dude but I watched your video and it was not good."
RETURN OF THE JAYDI

Jay's zero-effort burns kill me every time. What a treasure
I'm sorry, but I need to debunk this guy's statement that Lily Orchard is original compared to his other examples. She's not. Lily modelled herself after Moviebob and Jim Sterling, and took many of their worst traits to the next level. You can see this in how she copies the tone of voice used in the video, the editing style, and how she loves to come up with creative ways to insult and de-humanize people who disagree with her. If you're a fan of TV Tropes, you might also notice that Lily uses a lot of phrases taken directly from that website in her scrips. Even many of her original fictions that she works on are not original, but amalgimations of World of Warcraft and Knights of the Old Republic tropes (with heavy emphasis on evil Sylvanas-type characters as the heroes). The funny thing is, for the most part he was on point with how terrible of a reviewer Lily is, and how she relies on hate and vitrial to get through. Yet his ability to analyze media is so much worse than her's that he managed to make her seem rational in comparison. Let that sink in. This guy made Lily Orchard, one of RUclips's most vile and toxic individuals, seem reasonable.
Specifically regarding Steven Universe, she actually has a lot of valid criticisms about SU having an unprofessional flaky work ethic behind it and the story pussying out of condemning the actual villains to force some happy ending, which unintentionally throws under the bus the antihero who died so that Steven can live.
But even then, a lot of points in that video got flak from those like Robobuddies for being suspiciously similar to other videos on the topic (I watched the videos in question; they all got similar beats just presented differently; Lily made it her own with her delivery and add-on points, but yeah, "original" is not the word I would use)
Whole thing's just silly to me because of ALL the things he could've slammed her for, he went with "she was mean to Rebecca", Lily's single most based take. And even there the guy backpedals because she's a LGBT
@@samwallaceart288 i can agree that Steven Universe is an overrated show with lots of problems ignored because it’s queer. Some of Lily’s points I also agree with. But she still took things too far, as she always does.
That's what makes this whole situation so much funnier.
Despite Anthony Gramuglia's attempts to call out Lily Orchard for daring to criticize a show about gay rock aliens and an autistic boy with emotional problems, he still managed to come off worse than Lily because she at least sees through LGBT representation and can point out how badly Steven Universe handles all it's idea and should never be shown to a child.
She doesn't give it a pass because even she realizes that Steven Universe's idea of love is more creepy than it is charming, episcally when it comes to fusion.
It speaks volumes about how terrible a critic Anthony is when Lily is more objective when reviewing media than he is.
Former hardcore brony here. The unhinged psycho who rejects the objectivity of reality formerly known as Jerry Peet was looked upon by most as a fringe, unstable drama-farmer, unwelcomed even by The Herd's standards. Furthermore, stealing other people's shticks has _always_ been *his* modus operandi; when *he* first started making content, *his* videos were such a blatant theft of Zero Punctuation's entire format that The Escapist probably could have sued *him* if *he* had monetized *his* work.
Also, I will not use Jerry Peet's "pReFeRrEd pRoNoUnS" for even more austere, objectivist, and moral reasons than I refuse to use Dylan Mulvaney's. Jerry was also discovered to be lecherous autogynophiliac, having written multiple pornographic stories centered around author avatar characters magically getting turned into women. So every time you refer to Jerry by incorrect pronouns or the drag name *he* made up for *himself,* you are playing into *his* degenerate sexual fetishes... and *he* knows it, and revels in it: that's just how much of a salacious, malignant, world-stage narcissist *he* is.

This guy comparing 10 separate people using contextless clips to two "his sides" with full discussion is the most bizarre display of good faith I've seen

Man, this has been the week of backfiring hit pieces... First that In Praise of Shadows guy goes after Wendigoon for congratulating Shoeonhead on her wedding and taking a picture with Turkey Tom. Now we got this Jack Saint wannabe crafting his own hit piece because Shad said Princess Peach wore pants once, someone pointed out Peter Parker isn't gay, and Mauler makes videos longer than the source material.
All of these people are detrimental to the very craft they espouse to care about, and they are all terrible.
You don't understand, Shad lied to you! Clearly she's wearing a jumpsuit and not pants, therefore you can entirely dismiss literally anything else that he has to say! 😆
I'll give Jack Saint a little more credit than that. Just a little.
Oh yeah, Anthony Gramuglia has a history of having bad takes on everything he talks about.
He'll block you for the pettiest reasons, which shouldn't be much of a surprise since he's a CBR journalist.
Hell, if you really want to understand Anthony's mindset, this guy went as far as to defend the San Francisco Gay Men's Chorus, the same group that brags about coming for your children and covert them to more gay, the same group that was later revealed to have pedophiles who sang in the chorus, yet Anthony was still willing to defend that.
This is a guy claiming to have the moral high ground while actively defending a group that wanted to mess with little kids.

I remember that, Yeah that case was a Wtf situation, the full context was that it was supposed to be an edgy joke but it lost any sense of being a Joke when it was like, 60% of the choir were CSA offenders?

Might be recency bias, but I think this is one of the worst videos that have been covered to date. Terrible arguments, non-stop hypocrisy, heavy political bias, constant smugness. Horrific video, honestly.
For me it close between this guy and Hassan. At least this guy is capable of holding a normal conversation.
I said in the unlisted comments that this EFAP was a 7 hour extended edition of the moment that guy reminisced about Bethesda game studios as if it were his ex-girlfriend. The unreason is alarming. The bias is palpable. The sense that what Anthony is saying is peripheral to a slanderous agenda, but his cowardice is his inhibitor, is distinct.
The fact that the single topic to which he dedicated the most time and enthusiasm was a tangent raving, as if to idiots, the progression of the feminist agenda from the second wave forth, makes clear that the channel is an audition tape for carnal favours from androgynous city dwellers with heads of cotton candy dyed hair half shaven.
This video feels like a rerun
Was thinking the same thing. As pointed out above me, this guy still doesn't hold a candle to Hasan in terms of outright scumminess- but he definitely had the most annoying sense of completely unearned arrogance. Total confidence while being totally wrong about pretty much everything, and pure dogshit at setting up a working argument. As Mauler said, he has a habit of immediately losing to strawmen which he created. He regularly cited evidence, which he thought was in support of his claims - and in fact actually destroyed his entire position, despite his attempts to remove as much context as possible and interrupt his opponents while they were still making their point.
Also it got to the point where I had to alt tab because I was so tired of looking at his resting bitchface.
@shogunofpie8303 personally I think the #1 worst spot goes to synthetic man, but this one and hasan as well are definitely up there
I've noticed a trend among RUclipsrs where they go out of their way to show that they are holding their microphones in their hand, and I just don't get it.
Is it supposed to be more visually interesting? Because it's not.
It let's them pretend that they are news reporters.
It's specially weird since he's using a mic stand.
Amusingly there's an hour-long video about this trend already. That doesn't come close however to a video I saw which the guy began by adjusting his camera (or more like - shaking it to make it look like he just finished setting it up). Made me click off immediately; no way you can be that try-hard about making yourself look non-professional/down-to-earth.
@@ncuriousmediator9434 Who made the hour-long video?
@@rosskwolfe The title is " Why RUclipsrs Hold Microphones Now " by Tom Nicholas. I didn't watch it by the way.
I love how smugly this guy finished the video out telling his viewers to think for themselves, but his main criticisms of Critical Drinker and Anita were just that they went against public opinion?
My theory is that these kinda people do that to cement their message as the moral highground. Because of the way people remember things, most people only are gonna be able to recall the first and last things presented, so the audience is gonna walk away with, "evil bad righty grifters are lying to people" and "think for yourself™". Both of those points are things his fans (if one can call people collected to hate things that) are already gonna agree with and he knows that. Shame whatever third rate community college he went to didn't offer a class on video editing though.
Isn't this the guy Frit caught lying about how aware he was of the HP game witch hunt?
This is the same guy who was bragging that a free game was outperforming Hogwarts Legacy on Steam. If that isn't pathetic, I don't know what is.
There was also the “gotcha” of HP having a player drop a few months after release. For a single-player that has no season pass and no DLC missions.
Putting a garbage person and a critic like Lily Orchard next to Mauler made me sad.

I remember watching the lily orchard steven universe video and thinking “i agree with some of these points but some of them feel very bad faith” and much later went down a rabbit hole on how lily wrote nsfw mlp fanfics about minors as well as the whole sister ordeal. Pretty crazy how horrible of a person lily is
@@huvarda Well, I have the same experience as you. I watched her video before the show ended and agreed with some of the points and then discovered the other stuff you mentioned.

Such scummy behaviour.

How?
Because he's lying, they do care about the plot, but only when they can cherrypick instances of said plot to craft certain narratives, eg. "Actually, this movie is an allegory for homoeroticism" or "this show was actually about anti-capitalism".
He's your typical lefty video essayists, they almost always allude to themes and allegories coz its easy to extract subjective povs that way.
I am so glad you guys are going over one of Ant’s videos, I have had serval Twitter discussions with this man and every time he makes the same type of poor arguments as he does here.

I'm very familiar with Literature Devil's video on Mary Sues and he was certainly talking about comic Superman, not Man of Steel Angstman.

It's amazing how spineless these kinds of people are. He reeks of jealousy that his dreaded right winger foes have bigger fanbases than his idols do, and bitterness that they have better arguments than he likely ever has.
Ugh, the "stormtroopers are useless" argument.
OT:
A New Hope; stormtroopers are renowned for their accuracy, the heroes only escape because the empire wanted them to escape and lead them to the resistance, they felt like a threat
Empire Strikes Back; the heroes get their shit kicked in for the entire film
Return of the Jedi; big epic battle (unfortunately undercut by merch), still felt like a threat
Prequels:
Phantom Menace; no stormtroopers
Attack of the Clones; The moment the storm(clone)troopers show up, they utterly decimate the seperatist's droid army
Revenge of the Sith; Storm(clone)troopers wipe out the jedi
They weren't useless until Disney.
Correction: Clone Troopers are not the same as Stormtroopers
@@mateuszmarciniak2828 Close enough.
but one stormtrooper hit his head on a door so obviously they were useless and the rebellion was guaranteed to succeed
I dunno, the rebels on Hoth and the security forces of Bespin seem to do a surprisingly decent job of fighting back. And, yeah, the big finale of RotJ where they lose to Ewoks really was played for alot of laughs and they only seemed a threat due to superior numbers and the walkers. Not saying they were total garbage though, I agree, I just think it's an idea that started with A New Hope from people who didn't pay attention, was reinforced by the Ewok nonsense, and just stayed in the collective consciousness.

The amount of blatant lies in this "everyone else is lying" video is frankly hilarious.

Top 10 maybe. There have been a lot of idiotic videos covered throughout the years.

He should really retitle this video as ‘Insecure Liberal Arts Major passive-aggressively attacks mentally superiors’.
"Debates don't change minds"
Rags provides the perfect counter with the religion example, but it takes time of course. He didn't watch one debate, or do one debate, and changed his mind. It plants seeds that can grow into new beliefs, or you can at least gain understanding of a different belief you do not hold.
I remember Hasan talking about debates and saying he refuses to hang out with his opponents because he HATES them. Thats pretty fucked up imo, but it seems like the same idea this video creator here believes; debates are to yell your beliefs at someone and then retreat
The amount of gaslighting in that video was insane. What's funny is that southpaw showed up to (justly) point out Mauler's tisms for atla only to completely sidestep all the stupid claims made about him. You know, the actual relevant bit.
It's so weird seeing what happened to southpaw. Dude was supposedly some edgy give no f's guy who destroyed your favorite media and would get into so many slapfights about it on Twitter. But the efap hosts said devs was garbage and he has a meltdown and someone touched his golden goose. Like seriously he got exactly the same energy he gave out and he just imploded

Notice that it's not until he starts discussing Anita (and giving her the most benefit of the doubt possible) that he could provide evidence with contextual clips and explain it himself why she was wrong.

"We have GDELB at home."
The GDELB at home:
Anthony: Media Critics are Lying to you
Also Anthony: *proceeds to lie about both media, critics and criticism
The entire video, Anthony miscontrues or misrepresents the arguments mad by most of the critics he "covers", in order to prop up his own points. Whilst also doing the same thing to the scenes they're talking about.
Like based on how he presents the clips (if you wanna call it that and not randomly scattering), of course someone with ZERO CONTEXT, wouldn't be able to rebut him. But if you watch more of Literature Devil, JAR or Mauler or a lot of the other people mentioned, you would see that Anthony is BLATANTLY lying about the points they're making or is taking out context to make him seem more "reasonable" by comparison.
Here's the thing I hate about people like Anthony, Diregentlemen and Cosmonaught, just to name a few. It is not that they disagree with me, or enjoy something I don't or vice versa, its that they misrepresent both the piece of media they're covering as well as the people who enjoy/hate that piece of media, and do so under the impression that they're "smart actually 🤓"
Same here. It's one thing to like something others don't. It's another thing to have unabashed arrogance in your own self. Those folks are too prideful to admit that they were wrong about something.
@@lancethefilmguy9392 precisely, Anthony constantly conflates his readings and opinions of media as the correct, objective and ONLY interpretation of said media. And he demonises and quite frankly, bullies others for thinking differently.
I remember a while ago when this was still a fresh event, I commented on another channel that Anthony was the line I drew in the sand for poor media criticism, to which he pompously responded "I'm happy to be that line in the sand", which says all I need to know about Anthony's argumentation and motivations.
He doesn't value storytelling in the way that most who enjoy it do, he sees it as a means to make a point, typically a social or political one. And furthermore, he sees critiquing media as a means to prove HIS point, to benefit HIMSELF. Otherwise why would he act so antagonist to those who disagree with him about media or politics? Why pull his punches about people like Lily Orchard or Aneta Sarkisian when they have the worst media takes of all the people he covers in his video? And why does he assume that those he disagrees with are "lying", instead of simply holding a different view based on other ways of thinking?
"The emotion is great, screw the details". Bruh, do you not know the details MAKE the emotion?
For them, the jangling keys makes the emotion
5:32:26 The bit where he procrastinates Anita criticism by mansplaining the concept that feminism has more than one branch.
5:35:16 The bit where the boys wait for death to take them.
Theo being a regular is getting more and more fun.
Was this video supposed to be a joke? If it wasn't, this is a serious contender for one of the worst videos they've ever covered. I don't understand how someone can be so disconnected to not see that what he complains about and accuses other people of, directly applies to him and what he's doing right now. The last couple of minutes almost seem deliberately crafted to highlight how hypocritical he is and how shit his own video is. Wild.
Not necessarily the worst video, but it might very well be the most hypocritical one.
My favorite part is that Organized Chaos, the dude who tried to find Mauler being homophobic so he could just stop watching his video, commented about how good the video was. The comment I replied to him with got deleted cause it hurt his feelings. I'll post it again here for posterity.
Hey buddy, he's making fun of you. You know that right? You make ragebait content that gets less than a thousand views and yet you continue to churn it out daily. In what universe do you see a video ostensibly about bad faith critique and grifting and think "Ah finally someone fighting the good fight" when YOU are the bad faith grifter? Anthony has all but said the quiet part aloud by liking this comment, he doesn't care about "media literacy" or good faith argumentation, as long as the ideological message of the content is antagonistic to whatever perceived enemy group is on the forefront of mind that week it's "Good Content™" While l'm at it, stop speaking for black people. As someone married to a black woman the shit you say is disgusting.
@@Arrestedrabbit Yeah, I saw that. I'm glad I could find you again there, because this interaction was peak stupidity.

Remember folks, Lily has a total of 44mil views. Almost half of that comes from just two videos they made. In comparison to Eric July(since that’s the person he’s decided to use) whose total views are around 115mil and who’s viewing numbers are far more evenly spread out over their content.
So no, Lily isn’t a “better critic” because their video got more views. Lily made two videos on very popular and very “talked about” at the time series that got picked up by the algorithm. The VAST majority of those people who clicked on those two videos then had no further interest in anything else Lily made or had to say about other media or topics. They didn’t watch for Lily’s “brilliant criticism” they clicked on the video because of the video’s topic.
Yeah I think i've watched that video but nothing else of hers
Lily is the "better critic" because Ant plays for the same team. It doesn't go any deeper than that.

Yeah if you're off the shoulder of Orion, the shoulder of Orion doesn't exist to you; it's an abstract
Yeah, I always assumed it was an artistically phrased star cartography reference point.
Not that he was literally near those stars
