@@ogyoungboy21People who are interested in what went into creating a movie care about stuff like this. You learn things you missed when you watched the movie.
That's what the videos were back when this channel was just 'Cinema Summary'. But with their inputs they added another fun layer of their own content and make us think how we would approach these movies as well. Brilliant idea.
No. These are 95% their own thing. You can absolutely watch the movie, and the how to beat (in that order, to avoid spoilers) without feeling like you've "already seen this."
One thing I like about the card scene is that we see that they all have the same title of “Vice President”. The cards don’t call out a specialty, region, department, etc. They’re just a room full of “Vice Presidents” probably because it’s an important title and that’s all that anyone would really care about. But throughout the movie, we don’t see them doing any actual work (even in that meeting). They go to lunch, play sports, go to parties, etc but they don’t seem to actually do anything for the business. It wouldn’t surprise me if the people who report to them do all of the actual work and they just take credit for it and keep getting promoted.
Honestly the only person that could have BEATEN Bateman was the repeat Prostitute, as he killed everyone else in their initial encounters. She was the only one whom survived him once before, and truly knew how dark he was.
@@Dillon1998he does kill people, the movie isn't that obvious but in the book other people talk about his kills, he kills a taxi driver and the driver's friend captures him and talks about the witness but Patrick gets away
Not reall, the author of the book made it ambigous whether Bateman actually killed them because he couldn't decide it by himself, in the movie the killings actually happened altough we don't know whether they occured the exact same way the movienportrayed them as
It honestly feels like it is a mix of both. With this story, we see Patrick's fragile psyche start to unfold as he can't tell reality from hallucinations. This is apparent once he kills the homeless man and Paul as everything suddenly amplifies and everything starts blending together for him. The assault with the escorts happened, but murder wasn't. I feel like the drawings he's done are his outlet for his darker tendacies and until he snaps were able to things in check. The spree at the end was also an hallucination.
Yep, and the murder of Paul, too, cause the flat was empty and someone met him in London. And don't forget, he dragged the body through the main entrance and nobody gave a fuck.
Lol my problem with the instructions and why I still likely wouldn’t survive, is that it’s all in handset with access to all the info from a 3rd person POV (I think it’s 3rd person… right? Lol). It’s one thing to know what to do from the viewer’s perspective, it’s totally different being the only experiencing it with the limited information on being in the 1st person POV.
@@CrayolaCoffeeBeanyeah hindsight is 2020. Can’t say I would be able to pick up EVERY detail how these channels do. Especially in the heat of the moment
The first encounter describing how the woman should have avoided Patrick is the mental math most women use while walking alone. Every woman I know has the thought "what could he do to me?"
Yes! And most of us have some kind of defence weapon, I have a hammer, had a taser in the past but it never made the man who followed me run away as fast when I took it out, like they do when they see the hammer!
And it's not seen as a weapon under the law in any to me known country, I live in Austria and only police officers and security personnel can carry a gun on them, even if you have a gun license you can only carry a weapon from and to the shooting range, tasers and Pfeffer sprays are allowed, knifes only if the blade fits in your palm, compared to those a hammer is way more scary to people and can do way more damage!
Patrick is very very incompetent at pretty much everything. The only reason he doesn't get caught is because we aren't even sure that the murders even happened or was it all in his head. Plus he lives in a parody version of 90's.
The movie itself keeps you guessing until the scene where Patrick confesses to his lawyer, of which of his murders were real and which were in his head.
Just realized that "Christoffer Silfverbielke" from the swedish book series "An almost ordinary man" have to based on this movie/film character! Sweet! Love this movie AND the books :)
12:47-12:58 All the while, playing in the background is Hip to be Square. A song so catchy, most people probably don’t listen to lyrics. But they should, because it’s not just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of trends, but it’s also a personal statement about the band itself.
Gotta hand it to these guys They make a bunch of videos On how to survive situations if you were in them! I gotta say this channel grew pretty good Keep the work up! Have a Damn good day! :D
This channel didn't grow as much as you might think though... the growth actually decreased in the last 2.5 years. Atm they're only getting 20k subs max per month (where it was six digits in peak times). Were you here when the channel was still called Cinema Summary?
18:42 - +How To Beat - Yes, you'd definitely suspect something. Unfortunately, Bateman would notice that you suspected something and later on, you'd be called to his murder house, I mean his apartment, because he *remembered* something! 😈😈😈
It's surprising that when the homeless man was murdered, the dog didn't smell it and didn't growl, because dogs can detect bad things before they happen.
Tell me you didn't understand the movie without telling me you didn't understand the movie lol. (its intentionally left to interpretation but for that among other reasons, I believe he never actually killed anybody. Those scenes are showing things that he imagines doing, he's not actually doing them.)
That realtor who cleaned the whole Allen's appartment and looks at him coldly, telling him to never come back.... It always gives me chills... When a predator meets an even bigger predator... She definitely knew everything and who he was. Which makes her even more scary than him.
i think the easiest way to defeat patrick is just by showing him genuine love, and not just wanting him for materialistic reasons. thats the reason he couldn't kill jean or luis.
How to survive from patrick bateman Step 1 : reject the offer from him Step 2 : dont use him for his money Last step : if you see him and go to you , go to a area that have larger group
im a bit confused though, when Patrick says he's into murders and acquisitions and the girls asks what he likes about them (he doesn't know she heard him wrong), he shows genuine interest in her and maybe she's not like everyone else, maybe she's not living a shallow life and she really does care, and Patrick shows a hint of humanity / vulnerability I was thinking maybe if you asked him about his music or something, he might soften? but idk someone help please
My pain is sharp and constant... My reflection is no connection to myself... I do not wish for a better world for anyone... I want to inflict my pain on to others... This realization does not bring me any closer to understanding myself... As I drink the devil's piss I can hear him laughing as he spreads his wings...
