    Cinema Sins was one of the first commentary channels I ever watched, and it was actually a detriment to my mental health. I kept hearing how everything I wrote was a cliche or had a plot hole or didn't make sense, and it severely impacted my confidence in writing. Every time I would write something, I would get insecure, hear the CinemaSins voice, and promptly stop writing for the rest of the day, possibly for multiple days. So not only is it inaccurate, unfunny, and lazy, it is also harmful to anyone trying to be a writer.

He sits down at his computer with a bottle of wine and a microphone, watches the film, pauses whenever he sees a "sin" and records it right there while watching it. He does all of the editing and recording effort for his videos while watching the movie.

    By the way, urine actually does have DNA in it. It's a poor source of DNA, because it's in relatively low concentration, but it has both white blood cells and epithelial cells (that come off the urethra and probably some from the inside of the bladder sometimes). This means you can get human DNA from it. Urine also typically contains a relatively large amount of microbes, most of which have DNA. Bacteria and viruses from the urethra, etc.

      And then you've got the obvious lies/manipulation via edits. That's never satire unless the joke is on the edit (and it's not).

      part of it feels like a larger issue with criticism of fiction as a whole; in recent years a lot of audiences push for everything to be explained when it doesn't need to be. this extends beyond cinemasins, people will criticize any show that has loose ends at all when the finale airs, even though those loose ends would likely make the show retroactively WORSE if they were explained.

I still watch the some of the movies the cinema sins guy criticizes and I can always continue to enjoy and put to words their artistic value (for example, I really like the original Planet of the Apes and can appreciate it fully, while also enjoying a laugh at the way CinemaSins covers it because I don't take the channel itself as seriously as you or the creator of this video (29:08)). It's simply entertainment for people who aren't as sharp and observant (26:09) or knowledgeable (in various fields, such as aircraft engineering (39:11), golf (8:29), firearms (15:17), helicopter models (5:17) the effectiveness of bulletproof vests against different weapons (18:41) automobiles (34:24), animals (9:48), planetary designations in the Star Trek series (33:25), Lego bicycle design (38:56) etc.) as you or the creator of this video when they watch movies, and thus feel that the points made by the narrator are valid and find it funny to see them made in that specific style.

    "They're just joking"
    The thing is, satire makes a point, and jokes have punchlines.
    When CinemaSins blatantly miss or ignore parts of a movie in their rush to raise the sin count, what, exactly, is the point of that satire, or the punchline of that joke? Are they satirizing themselves? Are they just pretending to be lazy, and/or bad at film criticism, as a joke?
    Maybe. Or maybe they actually *are* lazy and/or bad at film criticism, and calling that "satire" or a "joke" is just a whole lot easier than actually getting better at what they do.

The target of CinemaSins’ satire is, at best, unclear, and at worst, nonexistent. And, moreover, its criticisms are almost unerringly mistaken as genuine, both by its audiences and members of the film industry. It completely fails at being satire.

      That's one of the really big problems with CinemaSins. It's just... toxic. It poisons people. It's yet another (highly popular!) place where people who don't bother doing any research spout nonsense, and when called out on it, they claim "they were just joking". It's really easy to manipulate people this way, and then they're all pessimistic, narcissistic jaded assholes who shit on everything they don't understand.
      It's especially unfair when plenty of their vocal supporters outright claim they never watch those movies (or use the CinemaSins "review" to say "Now I'm not going to watch the movie").
      I highly recommend CinemaWins. It's just awesome, and it really shows that while it's harder to be positive, it's also a whole lot more valuable. Because it's much easier to see the world as a giant shithole, and pretend to be so smart by being so cynical (even today people associate cynicism with intelligence and knowledge!); but it's a horrible trap that just makes you a worse person.

      @@longliverocknroll5 Fine, allow me. Your two comments are very telling in a number of ways:
      1. You call someone an idiot purely on the basis of them disagreeing with you. "On top of" implies you had already come to this conclusion after the first comment which was essentially 'Who cares if it's stupid, people enjoy it and it's not up for you to decide what people are allowed to enjoy.' This is not a necessarily idiotic statement. Therefore, the only reasonable conclusion is you decided S Hndrckx was an idiot because he disagreed with you.
      2. "There are thousands of comments that are basically "wow, thought I would like this, no I don't need to see it! Thanks!"". Not sure why CinemaSins are responsible for morons making decisions purely on the basis of comedic videos. If I said "Wow, CinemaSins seems a bad channel, I won't watch their videos, thanks!" Should Shaun issue a public apology for "replacing a market"?
      3. Not sure why I care about comedians exaggerating flaws for effect. I don't remember public outcry about the cruel treatment of airlines and lost revenue when stand up comedians were making jokes about airline food. Not sure why comedians are responsible when morons take those comments as valid thought-out critique.
      4. Not sure why CinemaSins owe a public duty to inform people about movies.
      At the end of the day, a lot of the comments on this seems to be a holier-than-thou circle jerk: this idea that not finding CinemaSins funny somehow makes you better than those who do. It's not hurting anyone, so as the guy clearly stated, "If people like it just let them be. It’s not up to you to decide". At the point where the greatest harm you can come up with is "People who were so disinterested in seeing the film that were put off by a 10 minute video of mediocre comedy from a comedy channel won't go and see the film", you're probably chatting out of your ass.

      A patient could appear to be healthy and still have arteriosclerosis or a thrombus.

      2) It's a fucking great scene and adds variety.
      The one that did them in for me is Days of Future Past. I enjoyed that film, and I had watched CinemaSins make fun of films I had watched previously, but the way they picked apart the film was as if they'd tuned out to discuss something they hated in an early scene, missing the context of the next sequence of events in the film, complained that sequence was stupid for 10 minutes which made them miss the context of the next sequence etc etc
      Nitpicking films can be funny, but CinemaSins are not a satire channel no matter much they claim to be; they are those Uberfact listicles you read on Facebook when you've got nothing to do for five minutes and want to read something mildly amusing and forget about it right after...except CinemaSins is bad at it

      I love finding issues in shows (as I try and use it to help me improve my own writing and notice my own flaws) and one of my largest rules for myself is to watch them all the way through, or at least till a point where I know my criticisms are valid. It's so important to watch an entire movie or show before slamming it... or praising it, in some cases.
      Cinemasins is like the antichrist of this. They stand for everything I despise in a critic.
      I love nitpicking stuff (again, helps me learn what to avoid) but there's a difference between nitpicking and literally making things up to serve your own distaste for something. Cinemasins disgusts me. A good example of a nitpicker who does it right is Ralphthemoviemaker, imo. He looks for all the little flaws, but he uses them to improve his own works and they're always valid.
      Cinemasins is such an insult to critiques. Thank fuck we have all these great producers to counter that bs.

    That football sin is several layers deep, even deeper than Shaun mentioned:
    1. Yes it's LSU, a college football team,
    2. Yes it could easily be an afternoon game that runs past 6pm
    But also,
    3. NFL and College Football games do occasionally, albeit rarely, start at or very close to 6PM.
    4. The sin says "there's no way there's a football game on" which expands how wrong this is, since there are countless other football leagues including hundreds of high school football conferences, although, high school games are very rarely live, let alone in bars, let alone in the town they're in. But there are plenty of other college and semipro leagues it could be.
    5. The sin mentions reruns, but bars do constantly air football reruns in two ways: news shows like Sportscenter and First Take are often on during off peak sports hours like 6PM, which is the exact time "pardon the interruption" airs on ESPN. Also, most bars have NFL Network, which literally airs NFL reruns at 6pm on weekdays on a regular basis. College reruns are slightly less common, but they definitely exist.
