Just some constructive criticism, work on your editing. This video could’ve been about five minutes, but you reiterated the same points about 1000 times.
You just don’t understand how yt algorithm works, he makes drawn out videos cus longer watch time makes it more likely to pop up in recommended, I agree tho bro waffles a lot
@FromMagic he's gotta make those minutes engaging though. The parts where he trails off and rambles without substance really hurt an otherwise good video
@@Buttington_Headerson Something like 5 minutes should have been fine. He keeps repeating the same words again and again. No idea if he's trying to stretch the video or he's having issues concentrating to make a point and advance what he's trying to say. Maybe it would help if he prepared a script before recording.
@@Bornz0r1337I don’t think he’s upset, you put an opinion out there and I think someone’s just trying to have a conversation about it. I agree though, definitely drawn out, especially the first 5 minutes. Most of the ppl who click the video probably already know Chris stuckman so idk. Definitely could have been like a 10 or 15 min video
@@ccxxtream No I genuinely think they are upset. I offered constructive critism and the response I got out of them was "you do a better job then haha".
This is is the most obvious reason and one he would t obviously make clear, but this dumb ass in the vid can’t consider that he has bigger ambitions than making yt videos
And if his decision to stop criticizing and instead start _"celebrating"_ cinema was a sneaky attempt to soften would-be critics towards his own movie, boy is that going to have the exact opposite effect. 🤣
I stopped watching Stucky when he all but praised The Last Jedi and Disney's Star Wars Trilogy. It seemed like he was just kissing Disney's... It felt dishonest.
Chris Stuckmann is a good guy, and I hope he is successful in fulfilling his dream as a film maker, but his channel isn't fun to watch anymore. There was so much passion and love in every video. I even loved the Halloween specials he did with his wife. Now he's just mundane, because his fear of being rejected by producers is so great. I think he feels bad bashing people because he now understands the movie-making process, but that shouldn't stop him from critiquing.
People constantly confuse somebody who is “soft” with being “good.” What makes him a good guy, exactly? Turning round and slapping the faces of his loyal followers because being a talentless hack who got lucky isn’t enough for him and he has this weird fantasy of being a Hollywood player?
I honestly can’t blame him if that were the case. I mean, of course, there’s nothing wrong with critiquing as it can make you learn from films and inspires you with your own work.
I think it's more because he's not young anymore, i don't think it has to do with him become film maker, i watched his videos and he changed the way he talk way before he become film maker, he used to talked energetic but now his grown up he more calm, but he's still honest.
When Chris's Madame Web video appeared on my Home page a couple weeks ago, I clicked on it, thinking that maybe he was actually going to do a critical review. After watching a minute or two, I saw that wasn't the case and turned it off. I then realized that, though I still subscribed to his channel, I hadn't watched a video from him in quite a while. Seeing a Chris Stuckmann thumbnail was all I needed to know about his thoughts on the movie (i.e. he liked it); I'd rather spend my time seeing what other people thought. And so, I unsubscribed from Chris that day. It wasn't in protest or to "punish" him. I just realized that I had no use for a movie review channel that didn't actually review movies.
"I clicked on it, thinking that maybe he was actually going to do a critical review" - so you dropped him because his opinions was not what you wanted it to be? you can just record yourself and listen to it again and again. why would you want to listen to someone else? Madame web was bad. that's it. the whole internet is talking about it in the same angle. Chris talked about it from a different angle. Hollywood has become commodified. art has become commodity. the art aspect has been reduced, it happens when artists need to please the shareholders. Chris talked about it. what's so wrong with it? I guess if Chris was speaking like every other critic next door, the things we want to hear, he wouldn't have lost so many subscribers. much like Hollywood and the audience itself today. we want to see different stories, different/ new IPs, different perspectives. but as soon as holywood throws it at us, it becomes a box office failures. Chris should have talked about us audience too. how we have become zombies. whenever we will see a Marvel/spiderman tag we will throw our money.
you watched a minute of the video and because stuckman didnt have the same opinion as you and didnt pretend to be angry at the film you clicked off and unsubbed. That is so typical of childish terminally online wierdos living in their little bubbles
@@huhulalammmthe point is he didn’t really have an opinion…. On a movie review. Are you dense? Like do you not understand what people have issues with?
I think the present version would ask the one from 8 years ago if he thinks he should ruin his chances of becoming a serious film maker by burning bridges left and right so he can continue doing reviews on youtube. Then the Chris from 8 years ago would probably say fuck no, do you.
I know. These comments are embarrassingly parasocial and making an issue out of nothing. If you don’t like someone’s content anymore, unsubscribe and move on.
I think that’s actually the point. Lots of people don’t watch him anymore because he doesn’t give us what we like. It’s his prerogative to do that but also ours to decline watching. He got famous for the Hilariocities. Can’t really be surprised when you cut those out and lose a majority of your views 🤷♀️
Funny thing is these cry babies are booing because he won’t do hilarocity anymore. That’s the one thing I NEVER watched and did not care for but I did not mind him doing those. To each its own. Watch what you like and don’t watch what you won’t enjoy. Like any of this is meaningful anyways.
Lol what majority? His subs and views are still excellent and he’s getting a movie made with Mike Flanagan. I don’t think the 10 people who are mad about hilariocities being gone will make much difference. Clown comment.
Yeah i never cared for the hilariocitys. I just like movies so I watched him to get content/info about movies. I don’t get people’s fuss about the negative reviews. I’m guessing alot of people are not really into movies like that but just like hearing people shit on movies
He said that his channel is now a “film appreciation” channel, and won’t talk negatively about films. Funny, because I had a class in 10th grade conveniently called “Film Appreciation”, and even we talked negatively about film sometimes. Also, he thinks that studio interference is the reason why a movie is bad. So are we just going to ignore movies that had no studio interference & still sucked, or movies that were even good because studio “interfered”?
You are all missing the point he clearly hates the film and rather than turn on the directors etc which I don't agree with but craps over a studio which is the kind of people he wants to be employed by.
One thing I've just realised about Chris, it's evident back when he made his video about his Jehovah's Witness past, I think it explains perfectly this anti-negativity anti-criticism mentality over the last few years now, it was staring me right in the face and only now have I just noticed this, to put it in simple words.... Chris Stuckmann is very sensitive soul, I know it sounds weird but it makes sense when you think about it, it's very clear he's someone who cares about what people think about him and he wants people to like him, this probably comes from him growing around the type of people he was once associated with who told him what to do and what not to do and how other people reacted to him and this lifestyle, and he desperately wants to change this around and rectify it.
Nah it's because he's a manipulative ass wipe who simply used his viewers to be able to get to a level of popularity where he can make his own movie which he now has and doesn't want anybody to shit on his film like he's been sitting on other people films for years
His *Hilariosity Reviews* and *Analyzing Movies* series are Great and still entertaining to watch anyday anytime. That was what made me watch him in the first place. Not that now
A guy says he doesn’t want to talk negatively and people dislike him for it smh. Society is cooked man, there are 10000 places online to get negativity let him be himself.
He took that “turn” because he is now making films himself and doesn’t want the criticism back. Really corny honestly cause if you go back to to the Batman v Superman script he wrote on twitter he got majorly clowned for it and then proceeded to make an entire video on how it wasn’t “serious “ or whatever about it. Basically, he wants to make films that only get praised like no dude people are going to give you criticism no matter what
Ever since his 2017 best of the year list he just has not been the same. Even before he quit doing negative reviews there was just something about him that just felt off, his personality nowadays feels incredibly dry and stale, he used to have this sort of childlike enthusiasm and he used to light up whenever he talked about movies what are those are movies he hated or loved.
@@JayVaters also I think you made a great point in bringing up Roger Ebert. Because Stuckman looked up to him so much, I mean he literally did a tribute when he died over 10 years ago now. Ebert had a great relationship with Scorsese, and Spielberg, yet that didn’t stop him from criticizing their work and I need harshly. And Ebert himself was involved with the screenplay for beyond Valley of the dolls the Russ Mayer movie, yet that didn’t stop Gene Siskel from absolutely tearing that movie to shreds and giving it his absolute lowest rating. So it seems like Stuckman doesn’t understand the importance of criticism and especially negative criticism. And I can say from my own experience I think negative criticism really helped me, I would’ve never learned proper punctuation or how to read and write without my English teacher harshly critiquing me. I think what’s really going on is that Chris does not handle criticism very well but as we’ve seen, and so he feels that he would be hypocritical to criticize other filmmakers for their work when he himself he can’t take criticism. And there’s nothing wrong with wanting to have a more positive outlook when doing film criticism. I think Austin Burke and Sean Chandler are perfect examples of that.
in the mid 2010s there were attempts to bring expensive television style productions to the world of online film analysis. Turned out that the people who attempted that much growth were overreaching a bit. No trouble. The online film community soldiers on. When those shows like Collider were a thing though, it was inevidably the case that the on camera talent had producers in their ear, restricting what they could and couldn't say. Not a good thing by any mreans, but it's the nature of a larger production. Did that detail about these productions really warrent Red Letter Media doing there whole Nerd Crew thing, where they repeatedly commited 20 plus minute acts of unadulterated mean spiritedness, punching down at people less popular than them? I only bring that up because I never knew or cared about the personal lives of the guys behind RLM but it was when I saw that that I started to take for granted that they must all be single and childless. (though that's just an assumption and I could be wrong) Sure it's fun to have countless strangers who don't know or really care about you validate that sort of thing, but do you want any child of yours to see you act that way?
It sounds like Chris is scared to give negative criticism to movies so that when people see his movie and say it sucks, he can have that moral superiority. Like "Hey I don't say anything negative about movies cause they're hard to make. And you shouldn't either." It's just stupid.
This is exactly why. Remember when he did that BvS script re-write? His response to the hate was patHETIC. He is obviously scared of that happening again, and I for one can't wait
I stopped watching him because he started sounding more and more Petty and assholish the more subscribers he got, like, he was so unfairly critical about many movies but now that he's making one he realizes people might not like it. Making a movie is hard, making a good movie is way way harder. Hope it bombs
I still respect Chris stuckman. I don’t always agree in the way he judges the movies. But I still think he is a good reviewer and I am interested to see what he does with his new horror film.
The internet is a very toxic place and I do not see why people are outraged that Chris Stuckmann is not giving negative reviews. Maybe it is because he is becoming a filmmaker himself and understands that their is a lot that goes into writing, producing and directing movies. It is his channel and his choice if you want dragging in the mud movie reviews then we all know the channel of that annoying Mr. know it all insufferable Scottish drinker who seems to be getting all the praise these days.
But it's a very different thing being honest vs just shitting on movies. There are many channels who only focus on the negative, Chris was never one of them.
If he better understands how film making works that means he should be able to more correctly and more nuanced criticize movies. Criticism doesn't mean dragging something in the mud. I'm a former actor. Just because I know how hard acting is doesn't I now shouldn't criticize acting. No, instead, becauase I know how acting works I'm actually more critical. Not negative. But I can criticize with way more knowledge and nuance. Without criticism people won't be able to learn and grow and make better movies.
I used to love Chris, but if a review doesn't tell you anything about the movie then it's not a review. I don't want to hear how the studio tried hard, i want to hear if it was good or bad and why.
His Batman and Robin hilariocity he did with The flick pick is one of my favourite videos of his I remember watching that with my friends and we laughed our asses off, that’s what I loved about the old Stuckman and why I don’t watch him anymore, I do appreciate how he has matured and still makes some good informative videos, but I a lot of it now feels sanitised which sucks, RUclipsrs like critical drinker are what Christ stuckmann used to be and even if he doesn’t want to be that openly honest with film, he can still balance criticism and the fun of that with positive and nuance, but he can do what he wants to do, it just sucks because most of us don’t really watch him anymore
I can't stand Critical Drinker anymore either though. He hates movies without even watching them because the second he sees anyone who isn't a straight white dude, he either won't review it if it's good, or he'll ish all over it because it's bad because of "the message", which he just whines about constantly. It sucks because like Stuckman I used to like him, until he got too into the smell of his own farts and started posting the same videos over and over because he thought that's what worked.
@@d3rrick10493 or Hollywood keeps making the same shit. Lol. I truly believe CD just cares about good film making and doesn’t care who inhabits the role as long as it’s good story telling. The point he and many others are making is that these filmmakers are intentionally sending a message with casting choices and story decisions, in service of influencing society instead of just telling a good story.
I agree. He’s a film critic that doesn’t wanna be a film critic anymore- he wants to be a filmmaker. It’s like when celebs talk shit but won’t name names because it’d be inappropriate and unprofessional, Hollywood’s a small place, it’s a game and Stuckmann’s playing the game right or wrong
I don't think that he is afraid to bash movies that suck, I think that after making shelby oaks he now understands how difficult the movie making process is. I think that it made him humble about critisum.
@@RedMoonSolitary like I said I know that he could rip movies apart if they are garbage, I think that he is holding back because he realizes that it just not polite. However if you watch his latest movie reviews he's speaking his mind he's just not being very harsh about the things he don't like about movies. He us growing as a person. Life is about learing and growing. I think that Chris is very intelligent, he there are movies that I have seen that I didn't even like until I heard him do his review if the movie. He had me look at the movie through a different lens.
Not trying to defend Chris or anything. But, I don’t think he dislikes negativity in general. He just doesn’t really want to be that person anymore. I don’t think he’d go back to his older content and hate who he was….is what I mean
You fell in love with a younger, edgier Chris who was trying to build up a channel in very exaggerated way. People grow and change, film making is clearly his passion now.
Chris Stuckmann was the first video movie critic I ever watched in 2018 and I never watched any video reviews before that. Most of the time, I'd just look at ratings from movie sites like Rotten Tomatoes and IMDb, but Chris Stuckmann's videos helped me realized that the overall critical reception of a movie is more than just ratings.
I am so sorry that your first experience with this community was watching his bland ass.. my reviews aren't perfect but I've always been an honest critic
2018? Try 2012. 😂 I remember him starting out. He's has "evolved". Stuckmann and Jeremy Jahns have been mainstays the past decade. If Chris wants to concentrate on "film celebration". That's his choice. There are other "film reviewers". I don't see the big deal about Stuckmann not reviewing movies/series "negatively". He said his channel is not about "reviews" anymore.
RT outright rigs reviews and has been caught doing it. I wouldn't use them. I'll always laugh at them locking Rise of Skywalker's "verified reviews" at 86% like 4 hours after the movie came out and then never moving it. I like Stuckmann's contemporary, who only got better with age, Jeremy Jahns. I still watch him.
@@a.nobodys.nobody Shaun of the Dead (2004) Labyrinth (1986) The Dark Crystal (1982) How To Train Your Dragon (2010) Rango (2011) those are my top 5 favorite films of all time, all masterpieces or nearly :)
Rooster Teeth shut down when their abuse and wage theft of employees surfaced, for which they acknowledged guilt and apologized, not because they went woke or whatever... "Following Jenzen's message, numerous other former employees spoke up about their experiences working at Rooster Teeth, adding more accounts of unpaid work and discriminatory abuse while at the company.Rooster Teeth then released a second statement apologizing for harmful behaviors, listing changes made since 2020 including the introduction of pay bands and the replacement of the entire Human Resources department" - Wikipedia
He is also reviewing from the POV of a person who has been through making movies and has a new perspective. It’s easy to hate on stuff when you can ignore all the effort that goes into making it.
I don’t mind it tbh. I think people can grow and evolve their channel; some will make a separate spin-off channel while others will just mold what they got. I enjoy listening to him simply talk about movies and filmmaking. But I also see why people are leaving
Huzzah! A man of quality! If you like Double Toasted, I recommend Chris J Herman. He’s done stuff with Korey and Martin but he’s got his own channel now and made a pretty solid response to Stuckmann’s Madame Web video
I mean he made it clearly what his channel was all about now. If people failled to understand, they clearly are just believing what they are seeing on the internet, fake fans of Chris, just hating for views, or genuinely just idiots. The past 2 years he's been honest. Just grow tf up. All you people bashing him, are doing the exact thing he doesn't want to do anymore
That it comes off extremely bias, now that he’s getting into the industry as a producer. He’s made fun of countless movies in the past, and all of a sudden, he’s making a movie now, he doesn’t want to critique movies negatively, anymore.
@@altair1514 no, it’s not being professional. Just temper down the disrespectful stuff. But to act like no movie/director can be criticized is just ass kissing. AND, he’s ONLY doing so, because he’s in the space now. It’s dishonest.
@@Leprutz so, you walk around calling someone terrible at their job, now you work with them and now, you no longer have an opinion on them? ALL OF A SUDDEN. Because they’re paying you. That’s fake.
It’s crazy because his channel was one of the first I followed, when I first caught on to RUclips. And I have fond memories of his past videos. However, once he became “woke” and got on his soap box about criticizing bad movies, I quickly unsubscribed. It sucks because he used to provide great criticisms, that sparked intelligent debates in the comment section.
I stopped watching Stuckman not because anything he did or didnt do, I just stopped watching critics altogether. I noticed that it doesn't sway my opinion either way especially now you can recreate the theatre experience in your house. Theres no longer an investment watching a movie. Put it on, if it stinks, turn it off.
No matter what you think of Chris and his channel, at least he didn't make a 22 minute video trashing someone else to piggyback on the persons popularity for clicks.
Honestly I think a lot of people are just overthinking this whole situation; whatever profession you're in, it's always bad form to talk smack about your peers, and if Stuckmann makes it as a director, these filmmakers will be his peers. That's really all there is to it in my mind. Also, as far as I'm aware he's purposefully stopped calling himself a "critic" so there's literally no problem with the direction he's taken, it's just not the direction some people wanted from him
Excellent video, and I'm glad you went into real depth when discussing this. Don't listen to the haters who can't handle a 20-minute long video - seriously, if your attention span is that short, you need help. It takes more than a minute or two to discuss a topic with any depth, and some of us actually like going deeper into a topic like that.
They make a living critiquing movies. Just because you don’t like someone, someone’s opinions, or someone’s presentation style, doesn’t make them not a “real critic“.
I'm not familiar with Kermode, will check him out I guess. Most critics nowadays exaggerate points in a film to exploit their opinion for more validity. Jeremy does this a lot, and I like his videos. He will take this one moment or story bit and criticize the hell out of it and then I'll watch the film and think, wtf is he talking about. A perfect example of this would be his review of Iron Claw.
A guy says he wants to move away from negative movie review content and stops making negative movie content. A dude whose whole channel is negative(your channel) makes a video criticizing a content creator who simply doesn't want to make negative content anymore. You don't see how stupid this is? Aren't people allowed to grow and change? They need to always be the same, always stick to the same views? Keep being a Drama/ negative film channel. You can do whatever you want and cleary there is a audience for it, but its what you want to do, stop going after people for doing something different. Be your own person, and stop getting mad at others for changing.
I don’t think Stuckman only making positive reviews is bad, it’s just that he makes positive reviews on bad movies for clickbait He also has a clear conflict of interest being a person who both make movies and critiques movies too (he needs studios to give him opportunities to make his movies)
People still treating him like a film critic is the problem. He stopped. He said so. He's a filmmaker now. Any "reviews" that pop up are just movies he likes and wants to talk about.
I think he is an amateur reviewer not a professional like Mark Kermode for example.He is not able to describe the reason he likes or dislikes a film in a way a film expert would do
I used to watch Stuckmann years ago because I wanted short and spoiler free reviews, but something about him always bothered me. I think he always felt kind of fake to me (the laughter was always fake and forced) and RLM situation really showed how prickly he is/was.
you are right in that he is no longer really a critic He is an aspiring director who is trying to keep his options open. Sometimes you can't have it all. He should now just say goodbye to film criticism...closing out the channel. It is ok to let things go...I don't think he is saying "f you all" I think he is struggling to say "it's over but thank you all for making this such a great experience."
You made a 22 minute video called "The Fall of Chris Stuckmann", and you're really gonna come in at 19:52 saying you think he's "probably a real nice guy", like it just excuses the other 21 minutes of you slagging on him for being successful doing what he's always wanted. Bless your heart.
I stopped watching him a couple of years ago when I noticed he wasn’t being an actual critic anymore. Hearing him just simply talk about a movie wasn’t very entertaining.
Want to reshare this comment I made to Chris Stuckmann in light of his views on Madame Web. Hope you can read my thoughts on how he changed for the worse. LONG WALL OF TEXT INCOMING: Dear Chris, if you have ever gone to film school, you may have learned about film movements like the French New Wave and New Hollywood (the latter where Scorsese, Coppola and Spielberg hailed from). And in these film movement, these filmmakers rose to prominance understanding films through the act of criticizing other films. Imagine François Truffaut never having the gulls to boldly criticize all the "Tradition of Quality" (aka Oscar bait) films that Cannes put up year after year after year. Without being open to criticizing the films of his day, he wouldn't have became an auteur director and did so many notable classics like the 400 Blows and stuff - all because he wants to challenge such conventions and strike it out on his own. In fact, the term, the auteur came from the French New Wave and it is all thanks to the prominent film critic, Andre Bazin. Chris, I have to be brutal and very blunt but there is no point in defending filmmakers when you cannot even have the backbone to criticize. You are way too biased to the filmmakers that you can look over obvious flaws and point towards the studios and other corporations in charge of the artists. You cannot tell if there are some artists out there who are obvious hacks and only concerned for the paycheck/recognition over personal artistic development. Instead, you defend every single writer and director as you are just concerned about breaking into Hollywood. You are ALWAYS playing it too safe in the post 2021 reviews you posted. I missed your Hilariosities. I missed your notable quotes from reviewing deservingly shitty movies like Fifty Shades of Grey, Fant4stic, and so much more. I missed you giving lettered grading for the notable films you have watched. I missed the little things like the angelic chorus stock audio you put in movies you deemed as A+. I missed the pre-2021 you. I hate to say it but those are WHY I subscribed to you in the first place back in 2015. And now, I am tired of watching your new reviews because they are so shallow and lacking in something which made you unique in the first place - brutal critique. I am unsubscribbing from your channel. We all deserve the old Chris Stuckmann to be truly Stuckmannized.
I don't think it matters because he will quit within a few years anyways. When he is part of the industry when he is a director of Hollywood movies he is not going to continue being (with all do respect) a simple RUclipsr anymore. Why would he? So controversy or not he will stop anyways. I wish him all the best in his wish for making movies and i hope he will succeed. I will gladly say goodbye to him if this means he can follow his dream in becoming a fulltime moviemaker.
Here is my opinion : From 2008_2010 pre age alright From 2011 _ 2017 golden age best time he keep getting better From 2018_ 2021 age decline he starte to lose his soul he was getting bored interested in movie making From 2021_ 2024 dark ages he doesn't cares about anything he just run the channel not to die 99% cares about donations for his movies and movie maker
Does anyone here know what happened to the Campea Exposed channel? Haven't seen them in awhile and can't find any of their old videos...I know that has nothin to do with THIS video, but I didn't know where else to ask.
Thank you for making this video. When I watched his recent video right before his sponsor, I was like “here we go again” since he has done this before. My problem with his video is that why make it in the first place. Even when he has some good points, he whole video was basically lecturing us about how hard it is to make a movie while dismissing other issues by blaming just blaming the studio. I used to like him and loved his content but he does come off as hypocritical, bias, naive and dishonest at times
@@JayVaters I still subscribe to him but he might lose so much respect from his fans. What bothers me is that his supporters make excuses for him. I don't know if they are just defending him for what he is doing or they're just shilling because they watch him for a long time which I understand, it is hard to accept disappointment
In my opinion, he hasn’t been that great in many years. The last really good video of his that I really enjoyed was his worst movies of 2017 video He became boring and stale after a while Sean Chandler Talks About, Cody Leach, TheItalianStallion51, RamboRaph4Life, and OcpCommunications are much better in my opinion But I respect your opinion
I’m going to be one of the few people defending Chris. As someone who’s watched his channel since 2012, I miss the bad reviews and hilariocity stuff as much as anyone else. But people change. He doesn’t want to be the RUclipsr he used to be, and that should be okay. As far as the claims that his channel is now boring and it seems like his heart isn’t in it as much- people seem to forget that you inevitably sacrifice a certain amount of passion and enthusiasm for your hobby when you decide to make it your profession, regardless of how much you loved it before. It’s easy to love watching and talking about movies. It is much, much harder to love MAKING them and sustain a career out of it. I applaud him for trying even when it means people will trash him and turn their backs on him
Although I still like and admire Chris Stuckmann, I no longer watch and keep track with him as much as before back in the old days in the 2010s. Same with Jeremy Jahns even though again, I still like and admire. I know both Chris Stuckmann and Jeremy Jahns are still around and making videos while others reviewers like Schmoes Knows, Grace Randolph, and Tom Chatalbash are not the same as they used to and the rest that I used to watch and follow such as Groundedforlife27, LazyCritic08, FuryoftheFilmFan, TheFrickenFilmCritic, RevolutionReviews, Gab and Dad, Bright Eyes Long Lashes, Team Haunted Flower, and Catherine Reitman have all pretty much retired. Even though there were some movies and tv series that I disagree with Chris Stuckmann on, both that horrible live action Dragonball crap Evolution and that messy M Night Shyamalan’s The Last Airbender on the other hand, I actually agree with Chris Stuckmann 100%. In my opinion, those two terrible films are worse than the 2008 live action Speed Racer film which was a massive box office bomb. Anyway, Chris Stuckmann right now is married and have two sons who are twins by the way. I also remember Chris Stuckmann used be friends with Doug Walker the Nostalgia Critic but due to the terrible controversy at that Channel not so Awesome, Chris Stuckmann along with many other content creators who left that company have cut ties with Doug Walker and his brother Rob. Therefore, they are no longer friends with each other anymore.
How is the fall of......lol the guy just changed a little bit he still does he reviews just not as much, I watch 18 min of you to get to this point blahhh
I dropped out after he gave a positive review for Dial of Destiny... I don't believe for a second that he was not disgusted by that shit. studio Sell-Out... The Male Grace Randolph.
If Stuckmann has legitimate mental health reasons for wanting to keep negativity out of his life, then skipping doing negative reviews is legit, but if his reason for not going hard on anything is that he is afraid of jeopardising connections with people in the studio system, he can't expect viewers to take his channel seriously any more. Obviously, he can do what he likes as it's his content, but that just the way things are.
i kinda find chris pretentious but at the same time disagree with this hate against him. yeah you’re right its lame to be a review channel and not give negative criticism and his channel is falling, but at the same time if this is what he wants to do, he should do it. he doesnt owe you anything, if he’s lost the passion for his past style of videos, he shouldn’t have to do it. also you can’t both accuse him of sucking up to studios and also only criticizing the studio and not the filmmaker of madame web. also youre complaining that he only makes youtube videos now for income and not passion, but you’re literally using his name to drive views to this dragged out 20 min video? let’s be real you’re not passionate enough about this subject to want to make a video about it for any other reason than capitalizing on his clout. you’re acting like he’s robbed you of something you enjoy, there’s so many other channels out there bashing movies, you’re not being denied anything, you have no emotional investment in this other than wanting to milk the drama involving a channel bigger than yours. you’re really gonna pretend he was doing a public service by negatively reviewing movies and without that the people won’t know whether to spend money and time seeing a movie? gtfo to be clear i’m no lover of stuckmann, i think it’s so pretentious that he brings up the fact he made a movie at every single opportunity and i fully expect Shelby Oaks to be terrible. but at least he is doing what he cares about and has more integrity than people like you.
You want to ruin him because he made one video not wanting to bash Madam Web? It wasn't a good movie, but there were a lot of anti-woke people trashing the movie. Maybe that's why Stuckman didn't want to criticize Madam Web because he didn't want to be a part of the hate. And that probably led him to not want to negatively critique movies anymore. I doubt it has much to do with kissing up to producers.
I was a long time subscriber of Chris, I liked his down to earth personality and honest personal reviews, I started wanting him in 2014 and stopped watching a few months after he decided to not give ratings for movies.
I don't expect a critic to be positive or negative. I expect them to be honest.
true
that's exactly what I am :)
I agree
How was he not honest? He said he didn’t like the film. He just didn’t trash on it. You think your comment is smart but it’s LAUGHABLE
Yeah!!!
Just some constructive criticism, work on your editing. This video could’ve been about five minutes, but you reiterated the same points about 1000 times.
You just don’t understand how yt algorithm works, he makes drawn out videos cus longer watch time makes it more likely to pop up in recommended, I agree tho bro waffles a lot
@@FromMagicyeah but if watch time and retention drops after a couple of minutes, the algo takes that into account too.
@FromMagic he's gotta make those minutes engaging though. The parts where he trails off and rambles without substance really hurt an otherwise good video

how long should it have been? 14 minutes and 24 seconds? 9 minutes and 41 seconds?
@@Buttington_Headerson Something like 5 minutes should have been fine.
He keeps repeating the same words again and again. No idea if he's trying to stretch the video or he's having issues concentrating to make a point and advance what he's trying to say.

@@Bornz0r1337I don’t think he’s upset, you put an opinion out there and I think someone’s just trying to have a conversation about it. I agree though, definitely drawn out, especially the first 5 minutes. Most of the ppl who click the video probably already know Chris stuckman so idk. Definitely could have been like a 10 or 15 min video
@@ccxxtream No I genuinely think they are upset. I offered constructive critism and the response I got out of them was "you do a better job then haha".
He realized that he wouldn't make it in the industry that he's currently trying to break into, if he burned the bridges he was hoping to cross.
This is is the most obvious reason and one he would t obviously make clear, but this dumb ass in the vid can’t consider that he has bigger ambitions than making yt videos
EXACTLY!
plus, he realized that its alot harder to make a film than criticize one.
Experience has a habit of giving you more respect for the field
And if his decision to stop criticizing and instead start _"celebrating"_ cinema was a sneaky attempt to soften would-be critics towards his own movie, boy is that going to have the exact opposite effect. 🤣

nice. thank you
Yeah over half this video is fucking nonsense no one came for
Thanks so much
Thank you!
you know it’s bad when the meat of the video that’s a little over 20 minutes long starts nearly 17 minutes into the video
I stopped watching Stucky when he all but praised The Last Jedi and Disney's Star Wars Trilogy. It seemed like he was just kissing Disney's... It felt dishonest.
Chris Stuckmann is a good guy, and I hope he is successful in fulfilling his dream as a film maker, but his channel isn't fun to watch anymore. There was so much passion and love in every video. I even loved the Halloween specials he did with his wife. Now he's just mundane, because his fear of being rejected by producers is so great. I think he feels bad bashing people because he now understands the movie-making process, but that shouldn't stop him from critiquing.
Perfectly said
That's exactly what happened. What's even worse, is that he doesn't get anything from the Hollywood machine and he's still afraid to speak his mind.
People constantly confuse somebody who is “soft” with being “good.” What makes him a good guy, exactly? Turning round and slapping the faces of his loyal followers because being a talentless hack who got lucky isn’t enough for him and he has this weird fantasy of being a Hollywood player?
I honestly can’t blame him if that were the case.
I mean, of course, there’s nothing wrong with critiquing as it can make you learn from films and inspires you with your own work.
I think it's more because he's not young anymore, i don't think it has to do with him become film maker, i watched his videos and he changed the way he talk way before he become film maker, he used to talked energetic but now his grown up he more calm, but he's still honest.
When Chris's Madame Web video appeared on my Home page a couple weeks ago, I clicked on it, thinking that maybe he was actually going to do a critical review. After watching a minute or two, I saw that wasn't the case and turned it off. I then realized that, though I still subscribed to his channel, I hadn't watched a video from him in quite a while. Seeing a Chris Stuckmann thumbnail was all I needed to know about his thoughts on the movie (i.e. he liked it); I'd rather spend my time seeing what other people thought. And so, I unsubscribed from Chris that day. It wasn't in protest or to "punish" him. I just realized that I had no use for a movie review channel that didn't actually review movies.
Your comment is probably the best and most thoughtful I’ve read.
"I clicked on it, thinking that maybe he was actually going to do a critical review" - so you dropped him because his opinions was not what you wanted it to be? you can just record yourself and listen to it again and again. why would you want to listen to someone else? Madame web was bad. that's it. the whole internet is talking about it in the same angle. Chris talked about it from a different angle. Hollywood has become commodified. art has become commodity. the art aspect has been reduced, it happens when artists need to please the shareholders. Chris talked about it. what's so wrong with it? I guess if Chris was speaking like every other critic next door, the things we want to hear, he wouldn't have lost so many subscribers. much like Hollywood and the audience itself today. we want to see different stories, different/ new IPs, different perspectives. but as soon as holywood throws it at us, it becomes a box office failures. Chris should have talked about us audience too. how we have become zombies. whenever we will see a Marvel/spiderman tag we will throw our money.
you watched a minute of the video and because stuckman didnt have the same opinion as you and didnt pretend to be angry at the film you clicked off and unsubbed. That is so typical of childish terminally online wierdos living in their little bubbles
@@huhulalammmthe point is he didn’t really have an opinion…. On a movie review. Are you dense? Like do you not understand what people have issues with?
So you didn't want to bathe in a RUclipsr repeating the same emotions that you had during the time? Isn't that a bit of a stupid thing to want?
I want Chris Stuckmann from 8 years ago to interact with the present version of himself
Old Stuck would crucify new Stuck
@@WilloftheFansSure would! I can see it now “How dare you grow your subscriber count, make your own movie, get married, have a child…” 🥱
He lived long enough to become the dragon he tried to slay years ago.
New Stuckmann has an actual neckbeard and looks like he’s constantly squinting.
I think the present version would ask the one from 8 years ago if he thinks he should ruin his chances of becoming a serious film maker by burning bridges left and right so he can continue doing reviews on youtube. Then the Chris from 8 years ago would probably say fuck no, do you.
How dare someone do whatever they want to do on their own channel despite what people expect of them. What an outrage!
I know. These comments are embarrassingly parasocial and making an issue out of nothing. If you don’t like someone’s content anymore, unsubscribe and move on.
I think that’s actually the point. Lots of people don’t watch him anymore because he doesn’t give us what we like. It’s his prerogative to do that but also ours to decline watching. He got famous for the Hilariocities. Can’t really be surprised when you cut those out and lose a majority of your views 🤷♀️
Funny thing is these cry babies are booing because he won’t do hilarocity anymore. That’s the one thing I NEVER watched and did not care for but I did not mind him doing those. To each its own. Watch what you like and don’t watch what you won’t enjoy. Like any of this is meaningful anyways.
Lol what majority? His subs and views are still excellent and he’s getting a movie made with Mike Flanagan. I don’t think the 10 people who are mad about hilariocities being gone will make much difference. Clown comment.
Yeah i never cared for the hilariocitys. I just like movies so I watched him to get content/info about movies. I don’t get people’s fuss about the negative reviews. I’m guessing alot of people are not really into movies like that but just like hearing people shit on movies
He said that his channel is now a “film appreciation” channel, and won’t talk negatively about films. Funny, because I had a class in 10th grade conveniently called “Film Appreciation”, and even we talked negatively about film sometimes. Also, he thinks that studio interference is the reason why a movie is bad. So are we just going to ignore movies that had no studio interference & still sucked, or movies that were even good because studio “interfered”?
You should be able to call a good film good and bad film bad, IMO
Even we talked negatively about films sometimes.
Exactly.
You’re speaking pure facts man
You are all missing the point he clearly hates the film and rather than turn on the directors etc which I don't agree with but craps over a studio which is the kind of people he wants to be employed by.
I mean, every film is gonna have some level of "studio interference." it's a lazy cop out nonetheless.
So glad Walmart Christ Stuckmann could be here to review Chris Stuckmann
😂

My favorite Chris Stuckmann video is his Emoji Movie review because of that intro lol
Yeah that was a fun video
I liked his Fant4stick review
@@ErikCB912 Oh man 2015 was Stuckmann's best time in my opinion. His Mad Max: Fury Road review was my favorite review he did in that year
One thing I've just realised about Chris, it's evident back when he made his video about his Jehovah's Witness past, I think it explains perfectly this anti-negativity anti-criticism mentality over the last few years now, it was staring me right in the face and only now have I just noticed this, to put it in simple words.... Chris Stuckmann is very sensitive soul, I know it sounds weird but it makes sense when you think about it, it's very clear he's someone who cares about what people think about him and he wants people to like him, this probably comes from him growing around the type of people he was once associated with who told him what to do and what not to do and how other people reacted to him and this lifestyle, and he desperately wants to change this around and rectify it.
Nah it's because he's a manipulative ass wipe who simply used his viewers to be able to get to a level of popularity where he can make his own movie which he now has and doesn't want anybody to shit on his film like he's been sitting on other people films for years
That's why I'm a Scientologists
@@michael-4k4000 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Dude I totally see that, well said
I think because he’s the biggest review channel, RUclips or Disney asked him to go easy on the shit blockbusters
His *Hilariosity Reviews* and *Analyzing Movies* series are Great and still entertaining to watch
anyday anytime. That was what made me watch him in the first place. Not that now
be honest, Chris Stuckmann was never great, nothing about him has ever been great, he was probably born a nebulous mediocrity ridden human being.
Yeah those were his best videos
Hilariosty was his best
A guy says he doesn’t want to talk negatively and people dislike him for it smh. Society is cooked man, there are 10000 places online to get negativity let him be himself.
The problem is he confuses criticism with negativity.
Yeah this just sounds like gaslighting to me.
Na your just ignoring the real issues people had with him
He took that “turn” because he is now making films himself and doesn’t want the criticism back. Really corny honestly cause if you go back to to the Batman v Superman script he wrote on twitter he got majorly clowned for it and then proceeded to make an entire video on how it wasn’t “serious “ or whatever about it. Basically, he wants to make films that only get praised like no dude people are going to give you criticism no matter what
Exactly. My words.
Ever since his 2017 best of the year list he just has not been the same. Even before he quit doing negative reviews there was just something about him that just felt off, his personality nowadays feels incredibly dry and stale, he used to have this sort of childlike enthusiasm and he used to light up whenever he talked about movies what are those are movies he hated or loved.
Yeah his passion has gone away
@@JayVaters also I think you made a great point in bringing up Roger Ebert. Because Stuckman looked up to him so much, I mean he literally did a tribute when he died over 10 years ago now. Ebert had a great relationship with Scorsese, and Spielberg, yet that didn’t stop him from criticizing their work and I need harshly. And Ebert himself was involved with the screenplay for beyond Valley of the dolls the Russ Mayer movie, yet that didn’t stop Gene Siskel from absolutely tearing that movie to shreds and giving it his absolute lowest rating. So it seems like Stuckman doesn’t understand the importance of criticism and especially negative criticism. And I can say from my own experience I think negative criticism really helped me, I would’ve never learned proper punctuation or how to read and write without my English teacher harshly critiquing me. I think what’s really going on is that Chris does not handle criticism very well but as we’ve seen, and so he feels that he would be hypocritical to criticize other filmmakers for their work when he himself he can’t take criticism.
And there’s nothing wrong with wanting to have a more positive outlook when doing film criticism. I think Austin Burke and Sean Chandler are perfect examples of that.
well said
Chris Stuckmann?... enthusiasm? that's a good one!🤣
@@AbrasiousProductions just watch some of his older reviews.
He has become a father in recent years. He's likely trying to be more positive for his family's sake in my opinion. I think that's quite respectable,
in the mid 2010s there were attempts to bring expensive television style productions to the world of online film analysis. Turned out that the people who attempted that much growth were overreaching a bit. No trouble. The online film community soldiers on. When those shows like Collider were a thing though, it was inevidably the case that the on camera talent had producers in their ear, restricting what they could and couldn't say. Not a good thing by any mreans, but it's the nature of a larger production. Did that detail about these productions really warrent Red Letter Media doing there whole Nerd Crew thing, where they repeatedly commited 20 plus minute acts of unadulterated mean spiritedness, punching down at people less popular than them?
I only bring that up because I never knew or cared about the personal lives of the guys behind RLM but it was when I saw that that I started to take for granted that they must all be single and childless. (though that's just an assumption and I could be wrong) Sure it's fun to have countless strangers who don't know or really care about you validate that sort of thing, but do you want any child of yours to see you act that way?
Totally agree with both of you
Seems to be working. No negativity coming his way.
Wheres that asteroid we were promised?
Then he should just review movies he likes rather than making whiny videos about why he doesn’t want to give something a negative review
@@Memorial24 or shut his channel down and stop earning money via scumbaggery
It sounds like Chris is scared to give negative criticism to movies so that when people see his movie and say it sucks, he can have that moral superiority. Like "Hey I don't say anything negative about movies cause they're hard to make. And you shouldn't either." It's just stupid.
100%. U hit it on the head nbs
This is exactly why. Remember when he did that BvS script re-write? His response to the hate was patHETIC. He is obviously scared of that happening again, and I for one can't wait
I stopped watching him because he started sounding more and more Petty and assholish the more subscribers he got, like, he was so unfairly critical about many movies but now that he's making one he realizes people might not like it. Making a movie is hard, making a good movie is way way harder. Hope it bombs
I still respect Chris stuckman. I don’t always agree in the way he judges the movies. But I still think he is a good reviewer and I am interested to see what he does with his new horror film.

Your mom was dumb to sit through 9 months. What a waste.
The internet is a very toxic place and I do not see why people are outraged that Chris Stuckmann is not giving negative reviews. Maybe it is because he is becoming a filmmaker himself and understands that their is a lot that goes into writing, producing and directing movies. It is his channel and his choice if you want dragging in the mud movie reviews then we all know the channel of that annoying Mr. know it all insufferable Scottish drinker who seems to be getting all the praise these days.
But it's a very different thing being honest vs just shitting on movies. There are many channels who only focus on the negative, Chris was never one of them.
If he better understands how film making works that means he should be able to more correctly and more nuanced criticize movies. Criticism doesn't mean dragging something in the mud.
I'm a former actor. Just because I know how hard acting is doesn't I now shouldn't criticize acting. No, instead, becauase I know how acting works I'm actually more critical. Not negative. But I can criticize with way more knowledge and nuance.
Without criticism people won't be able to learn and grow and make better movies.
He's still giving negative reviews, but now he does it positively.
I used to love Chris, but if a review doesn't tell you anything about the movie then it's not a review. I don't want to hear how the studio tried hard, i want to hear if it was good or bad and why.
His Batman and Robin hilariocity he did with The flick pick is one of my favourite videos of his I remember watching that with my friends and we laughed our asses off, that’s what I loved about the old Stuckman and why I don’t watch him anymore, I do appreciate how he has matured and still makes some good informative videos, but I a lot of it now feels sanitised which sucks, RUclipsrs like critical drinker are what Christ stuckmann used to be and even if he doesn’t want to be that openly honest with film, he can still balance criticism and the fun of that with positive and nuance, but he can do what he wants to do, it just sucks because most of us don’t really watch him anymore
Yeah he’s just not the same Chris Stuckmann anymore which is fine but that’s why people left his channel though
Critical Drinker definitely replaced Chris as my favorite YT film critic.
@@stevenvegh7964 Critical Drinker is an Anti-SJW Grifter. He's not good at all.
I can't stand Critical Drinker anymore either though. He hates movies without even watching them because the second he sees anyone who isn't a straight white dude, he either won't review it if it's good, or he'll ish all over it because it's bad because of "the message", which he just whines about constantly. It sucks because like Stuckman I used to like him, until he got too into the smell of his own farts and started posting the same videos over and over because he thought that's what worked.
@@d3rrick10493 or Hollywood keeps making the same shit. Lol. I truly believe CD just cares about good film making and doesn’t care who inhabits the role as long as it’s good story telling. The point he and many others are making is that these filmmakers are intentionally sending a message with casting choices and story decisions, in service of influencing society instead of just telling a good story.
Chris is just fine bro. Has done more and will do more than most.
Stuckmann is a filmmaker now. Apparently, at least. It makes sense he doesn’t want to shit on a bunch of other peoples’ work if he’s in the industry.
I agree. He’s a film critic that doesn’t wanna be a film critic anymore- he wants to be a filmmaker. It’s like when celebs talk shit but won’t name names because it’d be inappropriate and unprofessional, Hollywood’s a small place, it’s a game and Stuckmann’s playing the game right or wrong

You fell in love with a younger, edgier Chris who was trying to build up a channel in very exaggerated way.
People grow and change, film making is clearly his passion now.
Chris Stuckmann was the first video movie critic I ever watched in 2018 and I never watched any video reviews before that. Most of the time, I'd just look at ratings from movie sites like Rotten Tomatoes and IMDb, but Chris Stuckmann's videos helped me realized that the overall critical reception of a movie is more than just ratings.
I am so sorry that your first experience with this community was watching his bland ass.. my reviews aren't perfect but I've always been an honest critic
2018? Try 2012. 😂
I remember him starting out. He's has "evolved". Stuckmann and Jeremy Jahns have been mainstays the past decade. If Chris wants to concentrate on "film celebration". That's his choice. There are other "film reviewers". I don't see the big deal about Stuckmann not reviewing movies/series "negatively". He said his channel is not about "reviews" anymore.
RT outright rigs reviews and has been caught doing it. I wouldn't use them. I'll always laugh at them locking Rise of Skywalker's "verified reviews" at 86% like 4 hours after the movie came out and then never moving it.
I like Stuckmann's contemporary, who only got better with age, Jeremy Jahns. I still watch him.

@@nathaniel311 I guess so, but if I remember correctly, that video in particular wasn't a review.
Rooster Teeth shut down when their abuse and wage theft of employees surfaced, for which they acknowledged guilt and apologized, not because they went woke or whatever...

He is also reviewing from the POV of a person who has been through making movies and has a new perspective. It’s easy to hate on stuff when you can ignore all the effort that goes into making it.
This video is basically:
Why did Stuckmann have to mature!?
Why did he have to focus on his dreams and actually begin to have success!?
Lol you're a meatrider
chris stuckmann is the definition of wokeness
Chris Steckman is the guy who does house appraisals now of film. He doesn’t get on his knees and go inside to inspect the home (film).
I don’t mind it tbh. I think people can grow and evolve their channel; some will make a separate spin-off channel while others will just mold what they got. I enjoy listening to him simply talk about movies and filmmaking. But I also see why people are leaving
My favorite critics are Jeremy Jahns, Double Toasted, and Dan Murrell. There are other critics I watch but those are the main ones I like.
Huzzah! A man of quality! If you like Double Toasted, I recommend Chris J Herman. He’s done stuff with Korey and Martin but he’s got his own channel now and made a pretty solid response to Stuckmann’s Madame Web video
I’ve always enjoyed Jeremy Jahns
Double toasted videos are too long. There's too much rambling in their videos. If they learnt to make their points more concise 🤏 it would be better.
I say him coming out as an EX Jehovah’s Witness was the moment he jumped the shark
I mean he made it clearly what his channel was all about now. If people failled to understand, they clearly are just believing what they are seeing on the internet, fake fans of Chris, just hating for views, or genuinely just idiots. The past 2 years he's been honest. Just grow tf up. All you people bashing him, are doing the exact thing he doesn't want to do anymore
Don't bother with close minded people
Let them vent.
Cause that's all they have.
This isn’t a downfall. It just sounds like he chose a different direction for his life. What’s the big deal?

It’s crazy because his channel was one of the first I followed, when I first caught on to RUclips. And I have fond memories of his past videos. However, once he became “woke” and got on his soap box about criticizing bad movies, I quickly unsubscribed. It sucks because he used to provide great criticisms, that sparked intelligent debates in the comment section.
I wouldn't even call it part of the "woke" trend. This is a whole new beast of submissive and fake
I stopped watching Stuckman not because anything he did or didnt do, I just stopped watching critics altogether. I noticed that it doesn't sway my opinion either way especially now you can recreate the theatre experience in your house. Theres no longer an investment watching a movie. Put it on, if it stinks, turn it off.
No matter what you think of Chris and his channel, at least he didn't make a 22 minute video trashing someone else to piggyback on the persons popularity for clicks.

The moment stuckmann started lying to his audience, he lost them.
Honestly I think a lot of people are just overthinking this whole situation; whatever profession you're in, it's always bad form to talk smack about your peers, and if Stuckmann makes it as a director, these filmmakers will be his peers. That's really all there is to it in my mind.
Also, as far as I'm aware he's purposefully stopped calling himself a "critic" so there's literally no problem with the direction he's taken, it's just not the direction some people wanted from him
Down fall? Chill.
Excellent video, and I'm glad you went into real depth when discussing this. Don't listen to the haters who can't handle a 20-minute long video - seriously, if your attention span is that short, you need help. It takes more than a minute or two to discuss a topic with any depth, and some of us actually like going deeper into a topic like that.
I appreciate that thank you
Jeremy and Chris are not real film critics. Mark Kermode is the best film critic since Ebert.
Thank you. 👏 Jeremy’s personality has always hit me the wrong way.
They make a living critiquing movies. Just because you don’t like someone, someone’s opinions, or someone’s presentation style, doesn’t make them not a “real critic“.
I'm not familiar with Kermode, will check him out I guess. Most critics nowadays exaggerate points in a film to exploit their opinion for more validity. Jeremy does this a lot, and I like his videos. He will take this one moment or story bit and criticize the hell out of it and then I'll watch the film and think, wtf is he talking about. A perfect example of this would be his review of Iron Claw.
A guy says he wants to move away from negative movie review content and stops making negative movie content. A dude whose whole channel is negative(your channel) makes a video criticizing a content creator who simply doesn't want to make negative content anymore. You don't see how stupid this is? Aren't people allowed to grow and change? They need to always be the same, always stick to the same views? Keep being a Drama/ negative film channel. You can do whatever you want and cleary there is a audience for it, but its what you want to do, stop going after people for doing something different. Be your own person, and stop getting mad at others for changing.
No
Sounds like you're getting upset that this guy is criticizing a critic who isn't criticizing anymore. Strange.
@mrddcass6540 is it? Maybe it's to much for you
Homie, people are allowed to change. Eyeballs and clicks and armchairs aint owed shit.
I don’t think Stuckman only making positive reviews is bad, it’s just that he makes positive reviews on bad movies for clickbait
He also has a clear conflict of interest being a person who both make movies and critiques movies too (he needs studios to give him opportunities to make his movies)
People still treating him like a film critic is the problem. He stopped. He said so. He's a filmmaker now. Any "reviews" that pop up are just movies he likes and wants to talk about.
This dudes been irrelevant since he gave Disney Star Wars positive reviews.
I don’t trust people who hate Disney Star Wars
I always find them to be good 👍
He hasn’t fallen ANYWHERE. Who the hell does this guy think he is??
I think he is an amateur reviewer not a professional like Mark Kermode for example.He is not able to describe the reason he likes or dislikes a film in a way a film expert would do
LOL this video didn’t age well! The dude has NEON as a distributor for his film!
Haha!
I used to watch Stuckmann years ago because I wanted short and spoiler free reviews, but something about him always bothered me.
I think he always felt kind of fake to me (the laughter was always fake and forced) and RLM situation really showed how prickly he is/was.
Imagine losing subscribers over madame web...that must be something!! 😅
you are right in that he is no longer really a critic He is an aspiring director who is trying to keep his options open. Sometimes you can't have it all. He should now just say goodbye to film criticism...closing out the channel. It is ok to let things go...I don't think he is saying "f you all" I think he is struggling to say "it's over but thank you all for making this such a great experience."
You made a 22 minute video called "The Fall of Chris Stuckmann", and you're really gonna come in at 19:52 saying you think he's "probably a real nice guy", like it just excuses the other 21 minutes of you slagging on him for being successful doing what he's always wanted. Bless your heart.
You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain
💯
I stopped watching him a couple of years ago when I noticed he wasn’t being an actual critic anymore. Hearing him just simply talk about a movie wasn’t very entertaining.
Its a miracle!!! Ricky Berwick is healed!
Really, 22 min? You couldn’t have said all that in 5 min? What a waste of time I’ll never get back. Something I’ve at least never said watching Chris.
Get woke go broke, that’s what happened to him
Want to reshare this comment I made to Chris Stuckmann in light of his views on Madame Web. Hope you can read my thoughts on how he changed for the worse.
LONG WALL OF TEXT INCOMING:
Dear Chris,
if you have ever gone to film school, you may have learned about film movements like the French New Wave and New Hollywood (the latter where Scorsese, Coppola and Spielberg hailed from).
And in these film movement, these filmmakers rose to prominance understanding films through the act of criticizing other films. Imagine François Truffaut never having the gulls to boldly criticize all the "Tradition of Quality" (aka Oscar bait) films that Cannes put up year after year after year. Without being open to criticizing the films of his day, he wouldn't have became an auteur director and did so many notable classics like the 400 Blows and stuff - all because he wants to challenge such conventions and strike it out on his own. In fact, the term, the auteur came from the French New Wave and it is all thanks to the prominent film critic, Andre Bazin.
Chris, I have to be brutal and very blunt but there is no point in defending filmmakers when you cannot even have the backbone to criticize. You are way too biased to the filmmakers that you can look over obvious flaws and point towards the studios and other corporations in charge of the artists. You cannot tell if there are some artists out there who are obvious hacks and only concerned for the paycheck/recognition over personal artistic development. Instead, you defend every single writer and director as you are just concerned about breaking into Hollywood. You are ALWAYS playing it too safe in the post 2021 reviews you posted.
I missed your Hilariosities.
I missed your notable quotes from reviewing deservingly shitty movies like Fifty Shades of Grey, Fant4stic, and so much more.
I missed you giving lettered grading for the notable films you have watched.
I missed the little things like the angelic chorus stock audio you put in movies you deemed as A+.
I missed the pre-2021 you.
I hate to say it but those are WHY I subscribed to you in the first place back in 2015. And now, I am tired of watching your new reviews because they are so shallow and lacking in something which made you unique in the first place - brutal critique. I am unsubscribbing from your channel.
We all deserve the old Chris Stuckmann to be truly Stuckmannized.
Well said
Take it to a publisher like goddamn
I don't think it matters because he will quit within a few years anyways. When he is part of the industry when he is a director of Hollywood movies he is not going to continue being (with all do respect) a simple RUclipsr anymore. Why would he? So controversy or not he will stop anyways. I wish him all the best in his wish for making movies and i hope he will succeed. I will gladly say goodbye to him if this means he can follow his dream in becoming a fulltime moviemaker.
I stopped following Stuckmann when he started trashing on Will Jordan's unapologetically accurate takes on bad writing in Hollywood today.
When did he do that?
Here is my opinion :
From 2008_2010 pre age alright
From 2011 _ 2017 golden age best time he keep getting better
From 2018_ 2021 age decline he starte to lose his soul he was getting bored interested in movie making
From 2021_ 2024 dark ages he doesn't cares about anything he just run the channel not to die 99% cares about donations for his movies and movie maker
As long as we never experience the fall of the goat Jeremy Jahns we are good. Been watching him since early highschool and I’m almost 30 lol
Does anyone here know what happened to the Campea Exposed channel? Haven't seen them in awhile and can't find any of their old videos...I know that has nothin to do with THIS video, but I didn't know where else to ask.
It's back
Chris Stuckmann is a good example:
- how much the world has changed
- how much influence, a touch of power corrupts people
Thank you for making this video. When I watched his recent video right before his sponsor, I was like “here we go again” since he has done this before. My problem with his video is that why make it in the first place. Even when he has some good points, he whole video was basically lecturing us about how hard it is to make a movie while dismissing other issues by blaming just blaming the studio. I used to like him and loved his content but he does come off as hypocritical, bias, naive and dishonest at times
Yeah he’s trying too hard to please filmmakers that he can’t ever criticize films which is silly because hes suppose to be a critic.
@@JayVaters I still subscribe to him but he might lose so much respect from his fans. What bothers me is that his supporters make excuses for him. I don't know if they are just defending him for what he is doing or they're just shilling because they watch him for a long time which I understand, it is hard to accept disappointment
I think you need to look up the definition of "hypocrisy", because this isn't it.
And "lecturing"? It sounds like you're massively projecting.
to stop being a critic because now your movie can be targeted is the bitchiest move in art history.
Stuckmann still getting close to a million views per video and y’all calling that a downfall?? 😂
I think he’s smart enough to know that not doing negative reviews would lose him suscribers, but he decided to do it anyway.
Chris Stuckmann is still my favorite RUclipsr.
In my opinion, he hasn’t been that great in many years.
The last really good video of his that I really enjoyed was his worst movies of 2017 video
He became boring and stale after a while
Sean Chandler Talks About, Cody Leach, TheItalianStallion51, RamboRaph4Life, and OcpCommunications are much better in my opinion
But I respect your opinion
@@colewarnerreviews5834 2017 was 6 years ago. I feel old.
@@colewarnerreviews5834I don’t watch media criticism too frequently lmao.
@@colewarnerreviews5834 Sean Chandler is good.
Cool
I’m glad he was able to give your channel it’s 15 minutes.
Right
Now you get to be a hater that will review his movie that got picked up on NEON. You will still be here being a keyboard warrior
I’m going to be one of the few people defending Chris. As someone who’s watched his channel since 2012, I miss the bad reviews and hilariocity stuff as much as anyone else. But people change. He doesn’t want to be the RUclipsr he used to be, and that should be okay. As far as the claims that his channel is now boring and it seems like his heart isn’t in it as much- people seem to forget that you inevitably sacrifice a certain amount of passion and enthusiasm for your hobby when you decide to make it your profession, regardless of how much you loved it before. It’s easy to love watching and talking about movies. It is much, much harder to love MAKING them and sustain a career out of it. I applaud him for trying even when it means people will trash him and turn their backs on him
Although I still like and admire Chris Stuckmann, I no longer watch and keep track with him as much as before back in the old days in the 2010s. Same with Jeremy Jahns even though again, I still like and admire. I know both Chris Stuckmann and Jeremy Jahns are still around and making videos while others reviewers like Schmoes Knows, Grace Randolph, and Tom Chatalbash are not the same as they used to and the rest that I used to watch and follow such as Groundedforlife27, LazyCritic08, FuryoftheFilmFan, TheFrickenFilmCritic, RevolutionReviews, Gab and Dad, Bright Eyes Long Lashes, Team Haunted Flower, and Catherine Reitman have all pretty much retired. Even though there were some movies and tv series that I disagree with Chris Stuckmann on, both that horrible live action Dragonball crap Evolution and that messy M Night Shyamalan’s The Last Airbender on the other hand, I actually agree with Chris Stuckmann 100%. In my opinion, those two terrible films are worse than the 2008 live action Speed Racer film which was a massive box office bomb. Anyway, Chris Stuckmann right now is married and have two sons who are twins by the way. I also remember Chris Stuckmann used be friends with Doug Walker the Nostalgia Critic but due to the terrible controversy at that Channel not so Awesome, Chris Stuckmann along with many other content creators who left that company have cut ties with Doug Walker and his brother Rob. Therefore, they are no longer friends with each other anymore.
Sensibilities change over time.
Wow. That was a pointless video. Jealous much? And why was the video so long?
How is the fall of......lol the guy just changed a little bit he still does he reviews just not as much, I watch 18 min of you to get to this point blahhh
I dropped out after he gave a positive review for Dial of Destiny... I don't believe for a second that he was not disgusted by that shit.
studio Sell-Out... The Male Grace Randolph.
If Stuckmann has legitimate mental health reasons for wanting to keep negativity out of his life, then skipping doing negative reviews is legit, but if his reason for not going hard on anything is that he is afraid of jeopardising connections with people in the studio system, he can't expect viewers to take his channel seriously any more. Obviously, he can do what he likes as it's his content, but that just the way things are.
i kinda find chris pretentious but at the same time disagree with this hate against him. yeah you’re right its lame to be a review channel and not give negative criticism and his channel is falling, but at the same time if this is what he wants to do, he should do it. he doesnt owe you anything, if he’s lost the passion for his past style of videos, he shouldn’t have to do it. also you can’t both accuse him of sucking up to studios and also only criticizing the studio and not the filmmaker of madame web.
also youre complaining that he only makes youtube videos now for income and not passion, but you’re literally using his name to drive views to this dragged out 20 min video? let’s be real you’re not passionate enough about this subject to want to make a video about it for any other reason than capitalizing on his clout. you’re acting like he’s robbed you of something you enjoy, there’s so many other channels out there bashing movies, you’re not being denied anything, you have no emotional investment in this other than wanting to milk the drama involving a channel bigger than yours. you’re really gonna pretend he was doing a public service by negatively reviewing movies and without that the people won’t know whether to spend money and time seeing a movie? gtfo
to be clear i’m no lover of stuckmann, i think it’s so pretentious that he brings up the fact he made a movie at every single opportunity and i fully expect Shelby Oaks to be terrible. but at least he is doing what he cares about and has more integrity than people like you.
I unsubbed from him years ago, I couldn't stand his pretentious, from an ivory tower, demeanor anymore.
I feel the same. Had to unsub
He's always been super dry and boring! He has the personality of a dishrag
You want to ruin him because he made one video not wanting to bash Madam Web? It wasn't a good movie, but there were a lot of anti-woke people trashing the movie. Maybe that's why Stuckman didn't want to criticize Madam Web because he didn't want to be a part of the hate. And that probably led him to not want to negatively critique movies anymore. I doubt it has much to do with kissing up to producers.
I was a long time subscriber of Chris, I liked his down to earth personality and honest personal reviews, I started wanting him in 2014 and stopped watching a few months after he decided to not give ratings for movies.
well this video aged poorly
