I was pentecostal as a teen. All of my pastors kept god in the center of their marriages. One such pastor murdered his wife and twin daughters after his wife cheated on him. The following Sunday, the main pastor gave a beautiful eulogy for the murderer, villainized the wife, and breezed over the daughters as if they didn't really matter since they were only partially human, anyway. I've spent a lot of time thinking about the wife and those little girls and how much they all deserved way better than the people in that room.
@@MamboNombre5 I grew up in a very strict Pentecostal cult, they believed very ridiculous things, but I've never heard that. I mean, there are twins in the Bible. But I do remember our cult leader once saying that he thought twins came from more than one man having sex with a woman. He thought Cain & Abel were twins from Adam and the serpent both having sex with Eve. Adam was Abel's dad and the serpent was Cain's. I've done some research on this and apparently that was a common belief of KKK members and they say Black people and Muslims are descendants of Cain (and the serpent).
@@mischr13 Christianity / Penctecostal doesn't have an issue with twins. The issue is usually that they believe the man owns his family, and (while they won't say it outright) they generally believe he a) has the right to destroy his property and b) they must've done something to deserve it. I grew up pentecostal as well and its sadly common
@@MamboNombre5 I think it's cuz they're kids or daughters, some people believe their children are belongings basically, especially daughters, that need to be given off by the father to another man (their husband)
Love how the way they replace the dad actor with someone older and not the mom actress is a microcosm of how men are "allowed" to age but women are expected to remain pretty until they die
the fact that it took literal divorce court for the husband to listen to anything the wife says…. like she’s probably told him that before but he just completely tuned her out
I swear I saw a parody about this premise. I initially thought it was Robot Chicken that parodied this scenario, but I couldn't find evidence of it. Still I think whatever it was had a parent trap scenario that ended with the parents arguing about them cheating on each other in front of the kids who kept getting more and more terrified as the sketch went on.
You should watch the movie House Arrest, about a bunch of kids who lock their bickering parents in the basement to save their marriages 😂. In the end, some of the couples do end up going through a divorce anyway, but its still treated like a happy ending.
It only really works in parent trap because Meredith (the dads fiance) is such a bitch, and the parents seem to have split primarily over a dumb miscommunication.
The scene where 'the lawyer guy' berates the wife for nagging and etc of her husband, rings of that super traditional christian value that places the woman in the back, silent. It's highly irritating to think that if you say to your partner "you work too much, you should relax" is worthy of some kind of punishment. I don't even recall any of the scenes shown, were of her "nagging"? Like, love and support your partner, but part of that is going to be calling out your partner's choices that are toxic to their own well-being. Are you a 'Nag' if you tell someone they have an addiction?
50:00 love that the climax of this movie is a dude shitting all over 1. a woman who wants to leave her sad, dead marriage, & 2. the very existence of no-fault divorce, a law that has massively improved women's lives and lets people leave abusive relationships without having to navigate the criminal justice system. Or, you know, LEAVE unhappy relationships BEFORE anybody starts getting controlling or cruel about it This movie has such good moral values 🙃
Your ability to knit without looking at such a steady even pace while talking about that wack movie is really impressive to me! also I accidentally made youtube fullscreen and I don't remember how to minimize it so I'm trapped here please send help
I hope you're still not trapped in fullscreen land, but if you are, you can simply hit the "esc" key to return to the slightly more navigatable universe.
F11 (sometimes just a fullscreen icon on keyboard top row) also work. If it's a touch screen without keyboard then keep tapping until you at least get a home button to fully escape this RUclips hole Willie generously creates for us.
Wow, I'm the same way, with both my Catholicism and being from a "broken" family. But even still, I have never met 1 person yet who had divorced parents and thought their parents made a mistake. Genuinely, it is only ever a positive thing for the children involved, because divorce is usually marking the end of a long time of tension and not really the moment of trauma.
My mom and dad were in a very negative relationship. And my mom nor my dad regret divorcing each other, although my mom has told me she loved being a sunday school teacher and dislikes how in her mind she had to give that up since by divorcing my dad she betrayed God. She still doesn't regret it though.
I find it funny how it's very obvious that the movie wants you to dislike the mediator, but she's the most approachable seeming character in the entire movie imo
They also intended for us to laugh at the mediator, but her somewhat off-putting optimism is nowhere near as funny as the look the wife character gives her, which I can only describe as "impotent rage." It looks as if she's thinking, "How dare you...serve us tea...that you made yourself...with your own ingredients! YOU HELLISH DEMON!"
As someone who was an evangelical Christian for 20+ years, this movie is pretty standard. The amount of infantilizing Christian movies/ sermons do to Christians, is intentional. It’s not meant to be thought about or questioned. I still consider myself to be some form of Christian. But the amount of thought stopping techniques and childish ways of thinking is very hard to tear away from. This movie provides great examples of what Christians are actually taught. Christian movies are notoriously bad. This genre may have a lot for you to look into, that haven’t been over saturated with reviews. Some are better than others, but most of their “what world are they from ?!” doesn’t change.
That trial scene was severely uncomfortable. And like, neglect can be emotional abuse and an abused victim can still love their abuser so I dont see where the movie was going with that line of argument.
the children in this movie scare me on a level unreachable by traditional horror. sociopathic children are real and they walk among us, but only because they're so poorly supervised.
I consume a lot of bad-movie-commentary type media. I’m a huge fan of this format and also of Willie. The combination is just **muah** chef’s kiss. Eddie’s Million Dollar Cook-Off is one of my all-time fave bad movies.
@@Aster_Risk all disney channel movies are pretty bad. we couldn't afford cable (and mum thought it was useless anyway) so i didn't grow up with disney channel movies, and they all seem outrageously cheesy to me.
@@cassiemoyles4177 he's friends with the Drawfee crew! look up drawfee ft Willie and you'll find tons of videos !! I found this channel randomly and recognized him by his voice and sense of humor (he's a very distinctive person!!)
I don't know why I'm just finding this channel now, your comedy style is exactly for me 🤣 "I feel like I cannot move forward without stating that this movie DOES NOT understand how lasagna works." I don't know why that got me so bad 🤣🤣🤣
"If you just wanna hear me talk about the movie jump ahead to 9:08" why would I ever want to miss nine solid minutes of this guy talking soothingly while he knits. I live for this shit.
VelociPaster - After losing his parents, a priest travels to China, where he inherits a mysterious ability that allows him to turn into a dinosaur. Although he is horrified by the new power, a hooker convinces him to use it to fight crime.
I keep being surprised when your videos end up having overarching morals. The topics you choose tend to be niche, or seem like brains-off, shallow entertainment at first; and yet you continue to pull deep thoughts out of them! I love this series, and I hope it and you continue to thrive.
My parents got divorced, and during the whole process they *never* talked to each other as harshly as the parents do in this movie, at least not in front of us kids. Like, having your parents constantly belittle and insult each other whenever they're in the same room is really upsetting for kids, it's not something they just shrug off as a goof. Good review but the clips of this movie I find genuinely upsetting.
The one I found most upsetting is where the lawyer blames the wife's response to the husband's lack of attention and care for the failure of the marriage. You could just *tell* that's how the writer really feels about women. Like, sure, the husband should be better, but women are evil if they don't suck it up and submit.
@@vintagearisen the patriarchal religious stance seems to be that in that situation the wife has to try harder and provide a home her husband "wants to come home to". Same reason they blame the wife when the husband cheats - she must not be doing her job right if her husband doesn't want to spend every waking moment at home.
Could I make a suggestion? [ Assuming you thought *YES.* ] Here is single-handedly the worst B-Movie Horror I have ever seen. It clearly had budgetary issues where some scenes had CGI and the next being really bad SFX Makeup; weird storylines that have no purpose; and some of the most hilariously outlandish dialogue/monologues. The movie? Hyenas (2011). I haven’t seen anyone talk about this raunchy, so-bad-it-is-good movie and honestly- I am sick of it! I need at least one other person to have seen that insane movie! Thank you in advance.
I love your videos! Bad movie suggestion: thomas and the magic railroad. They cut the main villain out bc it was too scary for children and so made an already confusing film even more unfathomable. The girl from Matilda plays the main character. An old man is weirdly sexual about cleaning a train.
Wait. I just had war flashbacks and I think I've seen this movie. If I'm thinking of the same movie, I remember being completely confused by the final 1/3 of the movie, so your explanation checks out...
Nostalgia Critic did this. It IS a weird move since it's such a sweet TV show. The name of the old man escapes me right now but he's super accomplished, like a Robert Reford type, and he's bringing his ALL to a role that really doesn't need it, lol.
My favourite bad movie is Dracula 3000. The premise sounded good; vampire in space so there is no sunlight to kill it, the crew of the ship need to get to a star. Watched it and the vampire looked like a dad dressed up for Halloween. It was too weird to turn off so I just kept watching. I think there was some stuff about religion being outlawed and then one secretly religious guy having a crucifix and making some dramatic speeches about evil. I don't know how well known it is, I hadn't heard of it before I watched it, but I fully recommend.
hi i'm law student and the kids would have a "guardian ad litum" that represents the best interests of the kids. not to stop the divorce, but things like custody, splitting time, living situation, communication, etc. This person doesn't have to be a lawyer because they aren't part of the litigation of divorce itself. they are a neutral party who is there JUST for the kids in order to represent what is best for them after learning about them.
Im losing my mind at the editing in this movie. "down THAT hill?“ followed by ominous ambient sounds. And it's just. A regular little hill. No dramatic colour correction to go with the overly dramatic sound choice. Just. A green, happy, absolutely un-intimidating, hill.
On a personal level,as a child of multiple divorces, I hate this crap. Divorce is not an easy route. They’re hard and time consuming and expensive. But they are ultimately for good. Every one that happened when I was a kid were necessary. I would have had an awful time if my mother and father were still together. I had plenty of love and time with them,and I love my step mom. I hate when these movies just exist to vilify the family dynamic I grew up with. How many bad marriages will soldier on into abuse territory instead of just separating and coparenting?
I know it's 2 yrs ago, but also wanted to chime in here. I was a child of multiple divorces as well, and I can still remember the sheer relief I felt at 7 yrs old when my parents finally gave up on their ill-considered marriage and divorced. Both of them went thru other marriages and divorces, none unnecessary and at least one left far too long. My dad's 3rd marriage and mother's 4th were their last, and finally happy, marriages and I'm glad they did what it took to get to them.
The thing with the yarn is clearly supposed to be a family analogy, but I can't help get the feeling it's also a low-key reference to the fascist "bundle of sticks" metaphor XD
There's a Christian movie where some middle eastern guys build a time machine to assassinate Jesus to prevent the ressurection, it's fantastically awful.
🤣🤣🤣 You're kidding!?! Jesus was supposedly middle-eastern. lol Would've made more sense having Romans go back. Completely racist. 🤣🤣🤣 But, that's Christians for ya.
That idea sounds (from a mythology stand point) like a modern day retelling of Breer Rabbit. "Let's kill the guy that can come back from the dead" sounds a lot like "Let's throw him in the briar patch." And since they were able to add those heavily racist over tones (like Disney did with their telling of Uncle Remus), it is a perfect fit.
Totally agree with the sentiment of finding "imperfect" things, because they do have a lot of value. Some friends of mine and I have started this thing where every Friday, we watch two movies: one "main feature," which is typically something we're genuinely interested in (can range anywhere from the new King Kong vs. Godzilla movie to Shrek), picked by a variety of methods, and then the second movie is picked by a specific one of my friends who knows about some, very strange media. The "Mystery Movie," we call it. It can be anything from a terrible horror movie from the 60's to a surreal Korean animated film about fish living in a tank at a little sushi store/fish market. Some of them are things you'd never see in mainstream media, but still manage to be some of the most memorable and unironically good movies I've ever seen (Padak [the fish movie I described] and Wild Zero [an off-the-wall movie about a Japanese rock band], to name a few). Even the movies that are bad do create some very unique, memorable moments (and are often times just amusing to make fun of), much moreso than a lot of just, "good" movies of mainstream media that manage to be vaguely entertaining but will have completely left my mind within the week. The fact it's such a social thing also definitely helps, but I think it's a worthwhile exercise regardless.
commenting simply to express my joy that I can access this feature now. Will watch the video in full after a good nap! Love seeing the knitting tapestry progress btw
this is the best thing I have ever seen. William I beg you. you struck gold. this is the best of your channel. my sister and I are both in stitches. I can't breathe.
i recently discovered your channel and idk why but i absolutely love it, your delivery cracks me up and you feel like someone i would have a lot of fun being friends with
Videos like this one, talking about christianity, make me want to re-watch Life Of Brian for the bazillionth time. That's the kind of humor I love and that's why I'm really enjoying this channel.
*"Drew Gooden, Kurtis Connor and... the other one"* Absolutely savage attack on our Lord and Savior Danny Gonzales. Greg will not forget this. You have been warned
This was excellent. I came here after listening to your magnificent letter to the drawfee viewers. Since I stumbled upon that channel only a couple of weeks ago, I could argue it was fate that brought me here.
Your babbling along with the expressions on your face is why I subbed this. You're hilarious!!! I found you last night and can't get enough!! I grew up Lutheran, which is Catholic-lite, so I'm with you on my relationship with faith and Christian movies just make me laugh, and your analysis almost killed me from the laughter lmao
lutheran is like catholic-lite-lite lol. i grew up episcopalian and my best friend was lutheran. episcopalians are heavier on the guilt stuff than lutherans, who, ime, seemed to focus more on the grace of god
Your voice is so calming. I was watching this after being awake for...way too long, and I accidentally got too comfortable and passed out! You are getting two views out of me today because I really want to know what the hell is going on here. lol
For bad movies - you can try The Yellow Wallpaper movie made in 2010. I watched it when I was in middle school when I read the original prose, and looking back I understood absolutely nothing about either. But I remember the movie being very bad, completely different from the prose version, and for some reason had a goofy farmer uncle and also zombies? Idk might be worth checking out.
Fr I love Willie’s growth over the years. When I first came across him I was like oh this fucker is irritating as hell and pretty offensive. So like coming back and seeing him now as someone who is like… an adult? Who clearly put in the work makes me happy. I like the content and evolution. Anyway, good job.
There is a movie I just remembered from my childhood called “The Magic Gourd”. It was dubbed in English and had this orange CGI magical gourd that helped a little boy by granting his wishes? The boy was also on a swim team or did competitions. I can’t remember much else but I remember watching it every once in a while as a kid and one day just realizing that I didn’t like it any more because of the message? And I was the kind of kid who just liked everything for the most part (unless I’m was too scary or violent, etc.) and just kind of accepted things. So if I suddenly thought it had a bad message as a child it must have been wild. I’d love to see someone talk about it. So I offer it up, if this comment ever gets seen. EDIT: spelling
I've been in a big rut recently and the past few days I've been watching a bunch of your vids I haven't seen before and they've really inspired me. It's so fun listening to you ramble and getting back into knitting at the same time. I'm making a little star right now :^]
Oof. I so want to watch this! I love long videos. But I'm still (shamefully) traumatized from my own emotionally/psychologically/other abusive marriage. Luckily we had no children. He was a very cunning, manipulative, gaslighting man child. When I offered up marriage counseling, he **legitimately** used the following as an argument: "Jenn, you know if we go see a therapist I'm smart enough to make them think whatever I want and make you look crazy" 🤣 But maybe it won't be so bad. I love your other videos!! I was raised in a very, very low key Protestant (?) Congregational church. It was super chill. It was like "hey! Come on in! We're just gonna sit and talk about Jesus, being better people and sing a few hymns. After we'll catch up with coffee!" I went to Catholic high school. And. Like. Damn. 🤦♀️ 🤣
If I can make a suggestion that might not get read on a several-month-old video: my favorite method for finding terrible old movies is thrift stores. You don't have to, like, buy the movie or anything (if it's a VHS you might not have a player, if it's a DVD it'll probably be scratched), but the covers are usually indicative of the quality of the movie and at the very least you can grab a few titles. I found one of my favorite bad cartoons that way lol
Going from revisiting my favorite quotes from “The God Delusion” this morning to listening to this at work definitely made me feel like I was having a stroke. I love you, Willy. Thank you as always for your content, it makes me feel so many emotions. 😂
I really enjoyed this video! It was funny as always to see you’re takes on things. I also appreciated the insight you gave at the end about how algorithms are taking these types of oddities from us
Lol the lawyer being that clueless about social media makes perfect sense to me. I have worked with many lawyers and a lot of them are pretty clueless about technology.
this is the first video of yours I've seen and I'm immediately hooked. absolutely loved this one, can't wait to binge a bunch of your other videos big agree that a vast majority of christian media feels like it was made in a completely different universe, I can't grasp how people like that even exist
The parents who would show this to their kids are the ones trying to justify staying in their failing marriage due to their religion to children who have figured out that everyone would be better off if the parents broke up.
Thankyou so much for this video. I needed this. You were intentionally and unintentionally hilarious. For eg...I listened to this like a podcast while I was cleaning with my mum and dad so mum interuppted me to ask me something so I took my earphone out and listened to her...and I came back to hear 'so here we are watching unsupervised pre-teens talk to strangers on the internet.' And I'm like...'ok...uuummm...I appear to have missed a vital part of this video. Go back.' But once I got the context it was also great but I'm so happy that I got to hear that line out of context. Also I got the best burns from mum and snd dad they are so bitter and icdont want to laugh at people's pain but also...perfect 🔥 . 'I remember when your dad used to remember little things' or 'what's that? Pouring your heart out? Oh sorry Hun...Susan the secretary just called and I don't have a moment to spare and also f u.' Or the grilling the poor mum got...I didn't know it was possible to laugh and also feel empathy for someone very different for me and Willie you make me feel strange and mixed emotions and I'm here for it.'
13:33 Rainer Maria Rilke has a poem positing that God is the son, not the father. He's something we create and nurture and who will live on after us. Sorry if that's random but I can't not talk about Rilke. 😂
I just discovered this channel and I love them! You have quite a relaxing way of speaking and I love your growing knitted tapestry. Could I suggest doing a review of the lowest budget film of its time, Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Its crazy and sarcastic and I'd love to hear your view of it, there are others by the same group that are just as nuts but holy grail was the lowest budget film to make it to cinemas at the time.
i kinda hoped for an hour long story from Willie, where he just talked about how he couldn't fine a movie to watch. I would totally watch that too, just because I relate to him on a nother level sometimes. have a nice day
That object lesson with the yarn threw me for a loop because it reminded me of a scene from the Kurosawa movie Ran, which I haven't watched since 1990, but I want to say he did it with 3 arrows or sticks as a lesson to his sons that they are stronger together. So yeah, I didn't see the throuple with Jesus coming either.
the string alegory feels like knock of czech legent about king svatopluk I. teling his three sons that if they rule over the kingdom together theyll be stronger than ever but he used sticks in the alegory for those curious it didnt work they got into fight and hell ensued so I guess the lesson is dont tell your kids what to do by stupid props alegories
Ah, she's probably the baby from his reality show. When he positioned himself as a womanizer. And said having a girl was "ironic." And now he makes evangelical Christian movies co-starring his baby girl. It's all saved on film, Scotty.
I was recommened one of your videos while high trying to find something to listen to. I didn't like your humor at first because i was super high and got confused at the jokes. Now i love it (and i'm also high).
I always start knitting with you once I start watching one of your videos, it's oddly fun to have a companion. And every time I get surprised by your speed dude you fly through your project while it takes me 4 days to finish a sock and like 2 months for a sweater. super impressive
I already knew I had legit reasons to dislike Scott Baio, Kevin Sorbo, and Dean Cain but after doing a deep dive I now can connect them all together, have reasons for Kristy Swanson and the guy who voices Ham in Toy Story, and distrust for Debby Ryan and Twenty-one Pilots. Thanks?
Hey sorry I know this is an old comment but I just wanted to say I met Kevin Sorbo at an event years ago and he was an absolute fuxking creep. I felt so bad for his wife… who was RIGHT THERE. Never meet your Heros 😔
Swanson was one of my celebrity crushes when I was a young man. (So was Stacey Dash. Boy, do I know how to pick 'em.) Now my parents are the ones who are big fans of hers, considering her "one of the good ones" because she appears on Fox News from time to time. I still like her, but I wish she'd shut up about anything that isn't related to entertainment - especially Christianity. She hasn't lived a Christian lifestyle, so she has no standing to implicitly judge the rest of us.
This was just as good as Kurtis, better than Drew, and on par with that other guy's bad movie reviews. I look forward to seeing a wall of wool eventually.😁
Ok. I have now watched enough of you (Found you from drawfee) to have a real opinion. Movie review and reality TV thing is my favorite content from you. The audio quality was off putting at first but when I watch without headphones on my TV browser I don't really notice. Your style of comic timing is an acquired tasted but once acclimated it is like coffee. I never have enough and I want some every day. Thank you for existing. I have recommended you to friends with great success.
Totally watching this because I genuinely don't want to just come to you for ANTM videos and you've expressed... insecurity there. I gotcha Willie, I wanna stick around! Let's open the library on some weird propaganda

you're so right. it's a different actress tho.
courting your parents aka "how to force your mother to stay in a loveless marriage" ... YIKES.
"a thrupple with God" sure is a phrase I've now heard
the fact that it took literal divorce court for the husband to listen to anything the wife says…. like she’s probably told him that before but he just completely tuned her out
One of my least favorite tropes in children's media, the "kids get parents back together through trickery and/or magic".

Still I think whatever it was had a parent trap scenario that ended with the parents arguing about them cheating on each other in front of the kids who kept getting more and more terrified as the sketch went on.

Like, love and support your partner, but part of that is going to be calling out your partner's choices that are toxic to their own well-being. Are you a 'Nag' if you tell someone they have an addiction?
Also, when he said "withholding love" sounded very much like he was accusing her of not providing sufficient sex to her emotionally absent husband.

I still consider myself to be some form of Christian. But the amount of thought stopping techniques and childish ways of thinking is very hard to tear away from. This movie provides great examples of what Christians are actually taught.
Christian movies are notoriously bad. This genre may have a lot for you to look into, that haven’t been over saturated with reviews. Some are better than others, but most of their “what world are they from ?!” doesn’t change.
Pretty much the only ones I've seen covered are from the gods not dead franchise

Knitcholas is such a wretched soul he's literally what my depression voice sounds like I hate him lol but every good show needs a good villain
That trial scene was severely uncomfortable. And like, neglect can be emotional abuse and an abused victim can still love their abuser so I dont see where the movie was going with that line of argument.
the children in this movie scare me on a level unreachable by traditional horror. sociopathic children are real and they walk among us, but only because they're so poorly supervised.
"drew gooden, kurtis connor, and... the other one" is very good
Think his name is Daniel Gorgonzola or something
Drew gooden, kurtis connor, and drew gooden.

I consume a lot of bad-movie-commentary type media. I’m a huge fan of this format and also of Willie. The combination is just **muah** chef’s kiss. Eddie’s Million Dollar Cook-Off is one of my all-time fave bad movies.
I love that movie unironically. Oh God. Why do you think it's bad?! 😰
@@Aster_Risk I saw it for the first time as an adult. Nothing wrong with liking if you saw it as a kid
@@Aster_Risk all disney channel movies are pretty bad. we couldn't afford cable (and mum thought it was useless anyway) so i didn't grow up with disney channel movies, and they all seem outrageously cheesy to me.
Drawfee Twitter brought me here and I'm just gonna say, I'm so sorry that I never watched any of your videos before now. This is incredible.
I forgive you
Drawfee talked about him? That’s awesome lol
@@cassiemoyles4177 he’s been on drawfee!! I think they mention Nathan being on one of his earlier eps in a video
@@cassiemoyles4177 he's friends with the Drawfee crew! look up drawfee ft Willie and you'll find tons of videos !! I found this channel randomly and recognized him by his voice and sense of humor (he's a very distinctive person!!)
@@cassiemoyles4177 in fact there's a whole Playlist w 55 videos where he featured
I don't know why I'm just finding this channel now, your comedy style is exactly for me 🤣
"I feel like I cannot move forward without stating that this movie DOES NOT understand how lasagna works." I don't know why that got me so bad 🤣🤣🤣
"If you just wanna hear me talk about the movie jump ahead to 9:08" why would I ever want to miss nine solid minutes of this guy talking soothingly while he knits. I live for this shit.
VelociPaster - After losing his parents, a priest travels to China, where he inherits a mysterious ability that allows him to turn into a dinosaur. Although he is horrified by the new power, a hooker convinces him to use it to fight crime.
Bad movies, not fantastic B-movies
I keep being surprised when your videos end up having overarching morals. The topics you choose tend to be niche, or seem like brains-off, shallow entertainment at first; and yet you continue to pull deep thoughts out of them!
I love this series, and I hope it and you continue to thrive.
Yeah, I came to this channel just cause he was funny and then it got really philosophical; love it :D
My parents got divorced, and during the whole process they *never* talked to each other as harshly as the parents do in this movie, at least not in front of us kids.
Like, having your parents constantly belittle and insult each other whenever they're in the same room is really upsetting for kids, it's not something they just shrug off as a goof.
Good review but the clips of this movie I find genuinely upsetting.
The one I found most upsetting is where the lawyer blames the wife's response to the husband's lack of attention and care for the failure of the marriage. You could just *tell* that's how the writer really feels about women. Like, sure, the husband should be better, but women are evil if they don't suck it up and submit.
@@vintagearisen the patriarchal religious stance seems to be that in that situation the wife has to try harder and provide a home her husband "wants to come home to". Same reason they blame the wife when the husband cheats - she must not be doing her job right if her husband doesn't want to spend every waking moment at home.
Could I make a suggestion? [ Assuming you thought *YES.* ] Here is single-handedly the worst B-Movie Horror I have ever seen. It clearly had budgetary issues where some scenes had CGI and the next being really bad SFX Makeup; weird storylines that have no purpose; and some of the most hilariously outlandish dialogue/monologues. The movie? Hyenas (2011). I haven’t seen anyone talk about this raunchy, so-bad-it-is-good movie and honestly- I am sick of it! I need at least one other person to have seen that insane movie! Thank you in advance.
Thank you!! I will check it out!
@@WillieMuse2 I apologize in advance and you are welcome. It sure is... something special.
I love your videos! Bad movie suggestion: thomas and the magic railroad. They cut the main villain out bc it was too scary for children and so made an already confusing film even more unfathomable. The girl from Matilda plays the main character. An old man is weirdly sexual about cleaning a train.
That sounds fascinating 😂
Omg that was one of my favorite movies as a kid lol
Wait. I just had war flashbacks and I think I've seen this movie. If I'm thinking of the same movie, I remember being completely confused by the final 1/3 of the movie, so your explanation checks out...
Nostalgia Critic did this. It IS a weird move since it's such a sweet TV show. The name of the old man escapes me right now but he's super accomplished, like a Robert Reford type, and he's bringing his ALL to a role that really doesn't need it, lol.
My favourite bad movie is Dracula 3000. The premise sounded good; vampire in space so there is no sunlight to kill it, the crew of the ship need to get to a star. Watched it and the vampire looked like a dad dressed up for Halloween. It was too weird to turn off so I just kept watching. I think there was some stuff about religion being outlawed and then one secretly religious guy having a crucifix and making some dramatic speeches about evil. I don't know how well known it is, I hadn't heard of it before I watched it, but I fully recommend.
"I'm going to stop nitpicking because I feel like if I don't we'll be here all day" he says as if that isn't what I want to do all day.
Reas the room, Willie.
Knit-picking if you will
hi i'm law student and the kids would have a "guardian ad litum" that represents the best interests of the kids. not to stop the divorce, but things like custody, splitting time, living situation, communication, etc. This person doesn't have to be a lawyer because they aren't part of the litigation of divorce itself. they are a neutral party who is there JUST for the kids in order to represent what is best for them after learning about them.
Im losing my mind at the editing in this movie.
"down THAT hill?“ followed by ominous ambient sounds. And it's just. A regular little hill. No dramatic colour correction to go with the overly dramatic sound choice. Just. A green, happy, absolutely un-intimidating, hill.
Clearly you've never ran/fallen full speed down a hill that steep... 😅 There are probably a LOT of rocks and such
@@tortillachips3911 i have mega adhd ofc I have. The editing is still funny
Goodness, the knit background has grown so much in the past 3 years.
On a personal level,as a child of multiple divorces, I hate this crap. Divorce is not an easy route. They’re hard and time consuming and expensive. But they are ultimately for good. Every one that happened when I was a kid were necessary. I would have had an awful time if my mother and father were still together. I had plenty of love and time with them,and I love my step mom. I hate when these movies just exist to vilify the family dynamic I grew up with. How many bad marriages will soldier on into abuse territory instead of just separating and coparenting?
I know it's 2 yrs ago, but also wanted to chime in here. I was a child of multiple divorces as well, and I can still remember the sheer relief I felt at 7 yrs old when my parents finally gave up on their ill-considered marriage and divorced. Both of them went thru other marriages and divorces, none unnecessary and at least one left far too long. My dad's 3rd marriage and mother's 4th were their last, and finally happy, marriages and I'm glad they did what it took to get to them.
The thing with the yarn is clearly supposed to be a family analogy, but I can't help get the feeling it's also a low-key reference to the fascist "bundle of sticks" metaphor XD
When you finish the flag, are you gonna found your own micro-nation?
I hope so. I'll definitely join.

There's a Christian movie where some middle eastern guys build a time machine to assassinate Jesus to prevent the ressurection, it's fantastically awful.
Omg please tell me the name
@@CattyMcMeow Assassin 33 A.D. unless there is a different film with the same plot. It's highly possible that there is
i cant even start with how bad that sounds and its amazing.
🤣🤣🤣 You're kidding!?! Jesus was supposedly middle-eastern. lol Would've made more sense having Romans go back. Completely racist. 🤣🤣🤣 But, that's Christians for ya.
That idea sounds (from a mythology stand point) like a modern day retelling of Breer Rabbit.
"Let's kill the guy that can come back from the dead" sounds a lot like "Let's throw him in the briar patch."
And since they were able to add those heavily racist over tones (like Disney did with their telling of Uncle Remus), it is a perfect fit.
Totally agree with the sentiment of finding "imperfect" things, because they do have a lot of value. Some friends of mine and I have started this thing where every Friday, we watch two movies: one "main feature," which is typically something we're genuinely interested in (can range anywhere from the new King Kong vs. Godzilla movie to Shrek), picked by a variety of methods, and then the second movie is picked by a specific one of my friends who knows about some, very strange media. The "Mystery Movie," we call it. It can be anything from a terrible horror movie from the 60's to a surreal Korean animated film about fish living in a tank at a little sushi store/fish market. Some of them are things you'd never see in mainstream media, but still manage to be some of the most memorable and unironically good movies I've ever seen (Padak [the fish movie I described] and Wild Zero [an off-the-wall movie about a Japanese rock band], to name a few).
Even the movies that are bad do create some very unique, memorable moments (and are often times just amusing to make fun of), much moreso than a lot of just, "good" movies of mainstream media that manage to be vaguely entertaining but will have completely left my mind within the week. The fact it's such a social thing also definitely helps, but I think it's a worthwhile exercise regardless.
Willie, you're a treasure (I hear you objecting, shuddup and accept it). Also hooray for catholic guilt. It'll stay with us to the grave.
commenting simply to express my joy that I can access this feature now. Will watch the video in full after a good nap! Love seeing the knitting tapestry progress btw
These videos always make me pull out my crafting projects, I love having something to listen to while I work and your videos really fit the bill
this is the best thing I have ever seen. William I beg you. you struck gold. this is the best of your channel. my sister and I are both in stitches. I can't breathe.
i recently discovered your channel and idk why but i absolutely love it, your delivery cracks me up and you feel like someone i would have a lot of fun being friends with
Videos like this one, talking about christianity, make me want to re-watch Life Of Brian for the bazillionth time. That's the kind of humor I love and that's why I'm really enjoying this channel.
*"Drew Gooden, Kurtis Connor and... the other one"*
Absolutely savage attack on our Lord and Savior Danny Gonzales. Greg will not forget this.
You have been warned
Comments are on now...
I'm an idiot...
@@WillieMuse2 it's part of your undeniable Willie Muse charm
This was excellent. I came here after listening to your magnificent letter to the drawfee viewers. Since I stumbled upon that channel only a couple of weeks ago, I could argue it was fate that brought me here.
I would demand that that lawyer for harassment. You find a pretty awkward movie for a fist review. This seems promising. I like your hat
thank you for being my new comfort watch,,,, idek why but my anxiety is soothed when you talk
Your babbling along with the expressions on your face is why I subbed this. You're hilarious!!! I found you last night and can't get enough!! I grew up Lutheran, which is Catholic-lite, so I'm with you on my relationship with faith and Christian movies just make me laugh, and your analysis almost killed me from the laughter lmao
lutheran is like catholic-lite-lite lol. i grew up episcopalian and my best friend was lutheran. episcopalians are heavier on the guilt stuff than lutherans, who, ime, seemed to focus more on the grace of god
I really loved this video, I keep coming back😌💖 You're a true gem, Willie.
Your voice is so calming. I was watching this after being awake for...way too long, and I accidentally got too comfortable and passed out! You are getting two views out of me today because I really want to know what the hell is going on here. lol
For bad movies - you can try The Yellow Wallpaper movie made in 2010.
I watched it when I was in middle school when I read the original prose, and looking back I understood absolutely nothing about either.
But I remember the movie being very bad, completely different from the prose version, and for some reason had a goofy farmer uncle and also zombies? Idk might be worth checking out.
Fr I love Willie’s growth over the years. When I first came across him I was like oh this fucker is irritating as hell and pretty offensive. So like coming back and seeing him now as someone who is like… an adult? Who clearly put in the work makes me happy. I like the content and evolution. Anyway, good job.
i just found your channel and it's incredible! also you made me start knitting again.
Strong open. One of my favorite opens to a video
There is a movie I just remembered from my childhood called “The Magic Gourd”. It was dubbed in English and had this orange CGI magical gourd that helped a little boy by granting his wishes? The boy was also on a swim team or did competitions. I can’t remember much else but I remember watching it every once in a while as a kid and one day just realizing that I didn’t like it any more because of the message?
And I was the kind of kid who just liked everything for the most part (unless I’m was too scary or violent, etc.) and just kind of accepted things. So if I suddenly thought it had a bad message as a child it must have been wild. I’d love to see someone talk about it. So I offer it up, if this comment ever gets seen.
EDIT: spelling
Dis the only chanel where i don't immediately stop watching when I see it's more than 15 minutes
Comment for the algorithm gods!
Love your stuff Willie!
❤🧡💛💚💙💜
I've been in a big rut recently and the past few days I've been watching a bunch of your vids I haven't seen before and they've really inspired me. It's so fun listening to you ramble and getting back into knitting at the same time. I'm making a little star right now :^]
"as the french would say"
Sir, I hope your subscriber count continues to grow, I love your content :)
wait, THE Willie? I'm a drawfee watcher and the algorithm randomly sent me here, love to see it
Same, had your same reaction! Love it
the philosophical ending thooo
Oof. I so want to watch this! I love long videos.
But I'm still (shamefully) traumatized from my own emotionally/psychologically/other abusive marriage.
Luckily we had no children.
He was a very cunning, manipulative, gaslighting man child.
When I offered up marriage counseling, he **legitimately** used the following as an argument:
"Jenn, you know if we go see a therapist I'm smart enough to make them think whatever I want and make you look crazy"
🤣
But maybe it won't be so bad. I love your other videos!!
I was raised in a very, very low key Protestant (?) Congregational church.
It was super chill. It was like "hey! Come on in! We're just gonna sit and talk about Jesus, being better people and sing a few hymns. After we'll catch up with coffee!"
I went to Catholic high school. And. Like. Damn. 🤦♀️
🤣
The hair growth journey and passage of time is coming along nicely
If I can make a suggestion that might not get read on a several-month-old video: my favorite method for finding terrible old movies is thrift stores. You don't have to, like, buy the movie or anything (if it's a VHS you might not have a player, if it's a DVD it'll probably be scratched), but the covers are usually indicative of the quality of the movie and at the very least you can grab a few titles. I found one of my favorite bad cartoons that way lol
Going from revisiting my favorite quotes from “The God Delusion” this morning to listening to this at work definitely made me feel like I was having a stroke.
I love you, Willy. Thank you as always for your content, it makes me feel so many emotions. 😂
I really enjoyed this video! It was funny as always to see you’re takes on things. I also appreciated the insight you gave at the end about how algorithms are taking these types of oddities from us
Lol the lawyer being that clueless about social media makes perfect sense to me. I have worked with many lawyers and a lot of them are pretty clueless about technology.
This channel is criminally underrated
I love the Willie never blinks in this hour long video
I'm so concerned for his eyes
Did not notice, I don't make eye contact recreationally
"Drew Gooden, Curtis Konnor and....the other one..."
this is the first video of yours I've seen and I'm immediately hooked. absolutely loved this one, can't wait to binge a bunch of your other videos
big agree that a vast majority of christian media feels like it was made in a completely different universe, I can't grasp how people like that even exist
I LOVE your sweater!!! And yep, the algorithm brought me here today :)
The parents who would show this to their kids are the ones trying to justify staying in their failing marriage due to their religion to children who have figured out that everyone would be better off if the parents broke up.
The immediate change from Waiter Actor to emotionally rotting Scott Baio made me laugh so hard i had to go back and watch it three times
Thankyou so much for this video. I needed this. You were intentionally and unintentionally hilarious. For eg...I listened to this like a podcast while I was cleaning with my mum and dad so mum interuppted me to ask me something so I took my earphone out and listened to her...and I came back to hear 'so here we are watching unsupervised pre-teens talk to strangers on the internet.' And I'm like...'ok...uuummm...I appear to have missed a vital part of this video. Go back.' But once I got the context it was also great but I'm so happy that I got to hear that line out of context. Also I got the best burns from mum and snd dad they are so bitter and icdont want to laugh at people's pain but also...perfect 🔥 . 'I remember when your dad used to remember little things' or 'what's that? Pouring your heart out? Oh sorry Hun...Susan the secretary just called and I don't have a moment to spare and also f u.' Or the grilling the poor mum got...I didn't know it was possible to laugh and also feel empathy for someone very different for me and Willie you make me feel strange and mixed emotions and I'm here for it.'
Thank you for starting the video with swearing me out. Needed that
13:33 Rainer Maria Rilke has a poem positing that God is the son, not the father. He's something we create and nurture and who will live on after us. Sorry if that's random but I can't not talk about Rilke. 😂
I just discovered this channel and I love them! You have quite a relaxing way of speaking and I love your growing knitted tapestry. Could I suggest doing a review of the lowest budget film of its time, Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Its crazy and sarcastic and I'd love to hear your view of it, there are others by the same group that are just as nuts but holy grail was the lowest budget film to make it to cinemas at the time.
i kinda hoped for an hour long story from Willie, where he just talked about how he couldn't fine a movie to watch.
I would totally watch that too, just because I relate to him on a nother level sometimes.
have a nice day
The RUclips algorithm IS perfect 👌 it just brought me here and OMGGG, I cannot stop laughing and binging your videos
My day is made now that willie has posted
This was honestly high art. I enjoyed this so much, I'm glad you exist.😊
You have the best deadpan delivery, and I love it.
That object lesson with the yarn threw me for a loop because it reminded me of a scene from the Kurosawa movie Ran, which I haven't watched since 1990, but I want to say he did it with 3 arrows or sticks as a lesson to his sons that they are stronger together. So yeah, I didn't see the throuple with Jesus coming either.
the string alegory feels like knock of czech legent about king svatopluk I. teling his three sons that if they rule over the kingdom together theyll be stronger than ever but he used sticks in the alegory
for those curious it didnt work they got into fight and hell ensued so I guess the lesson is dont tell your kids what to do by stupid props alegories
The actress who plays the young daughter is Scott Baio's daughter. Now I'm going down a strange rabbit hole. What an add assortment of acting credits.
Ah, she's probably the baby from his reality show. When he positioned himself as a womanizer. And said having a girl was "ironic." And now he makes evangelical Christian movies co-starring his baby girl. It's all saved on film, Scotty.
The Flop House, How Did This Get Made, Drew Gooden, and the other one (I’m guessing Danny) are some of my favorites!
I was recommened one of your videos while high trying to find something to listen to. I didn't like your humor at first because i was super high and got confused at the jokes. Now i love it (and i'm also high).
This is the best I can hope for!
Willie, you start the video with the kindest words I've heard in a while. Thanks.
I always start knitting with you once I start watching one of your videos, it's oddly fun to have a companion. And every time I get surprised by your speed dude you fly through your project while it takes me 4 days to finish a sock and like 2 months for a sweater. super impressive
I already knew I had legit reasons to dislike Scott Baio, Kevin Sorbo, and Dean Cain but after doing a deep dive I now can connect them all together, have reasons for Kristy Swanson and the guy who voices Ham in Toy Story, and distrust for Debby Ryan and Twenty-one Pilots. Thanks?
Hey sorry I know this is an old comment but I just wanted to say I met Kevin Sorbo at an event years ago and he was an absolute fuxking creep. I felt so bad for his wife… who was RIGHT THERE. Never meet your Heros 😔
@@missdiction4455 Same. Met him in an elevator at a con. Such a gross guy.
Swanson was one of my celebrity crushes when I was a young man. (So was Stacey Dash. Boy, do I know how to pick 'em.) Now my parents are the ones who are big fans of hers, considering her "one of the good ones" because she appears on Fox News from time to time. I still like her, but I wish she'd shut up about anything that isn't related to entertainment - especially Christianity. She hasn't lived a Christian lifestyle, so she has no standing to implicitly judge the rest of us.
Wish my therapist offered me hibiscus tea
This was just as good as Kurtis, better than Drew, and on par with that other guy's bad movie reviews. I look forward to seeing a wall of wool eventually.😁
Ok. I have now watched enough of you (Found you from drawfee) to have a real opinion. Movie review and reality TV thing is my favorite content from you. The audio quality was off putting at first but when I watch without headphones on my TV browser I don't really notice. Your style of comic timing is an acquired tasted but once acclimated it is like coffee. I never have enough and I want some every day. Thank you for existing. I have recommended you to friends with great success.
Totally watching this because I genuinely don't want to just come to you for ANTM videos and you've expressed... insecurity there. I gotcha Willie, I wanna stick around! Let's open the library on some weird propaganda
I am here for all of the bad movies you want to talk about, and I'm ridiculously excited about it
58:20 your insights into life are wonderful and thought provoking
