I liked it back then and was pretty excited about it up until the end of the second movie.Ten minutes into the third one, I remember thinking "maybe this is too much, now".

Technically it’s spelled Dippy Dawg. Plus, Clarabelle had shorter, rounder ears and a very different nose making her clearly a cow. Goofy’s nose matches Pluto’s.
@@ericminch Pluto is sometimes Goofy's dog, but I think you might still be right! There is always a line through the set when that's the case, and it could just be that old Hollywood trick where one person plays their self and their evil twin...
I think that people mistook Horace Horsecollar for a cow because he dated Clarabelle Cow in the earliest cartoons. Then Goofy/Dippy was introduced to replace him and people thought maybe it was the same character. Apparently, a satirical article about goofy being forced to hide his bovine heritage was written in 2012, and a surprising number of people took it seriously. So TLDR: Goofy is not a cow, but he looks similar to a character who looked sort of like a cow, and a satirical article insinuated the two were actually the same character for laughs.
I really wanted the next one to be him trying to poor a massive water cooler jug into his stainless steel bottle. The physical comedy alone would have been amazing.
It's true! Plus Seth and team have decided to be honest and have a political position that isn't dead-center-of-the-road, right next to the squashed armadillos. Colbert has decided money is God and he should keep his hot takes off of CBS, saving them for his brilliant and underrated Our Cartoon President.
@@joseph-zoramcbride4029 I really respect Seth's political position. He isn't afraid to say some of the stuff that I would hesitate to say in his place.
CORRECTION: Gloves won't make a difference with Hep A while doing CPR. Actually, a lot of the safety contact stuff related to First Aid spawned during the 80's. The average Joe is still spooked by medical misinformation from 40 years ago. It's a real problem in that people who know how to do CPR will refuse to do it out of fear of not having all the PPE. Sadly, that unfounded fear is why you now have First Aid training to include "chest compressions only" even though it's less effective.
Correction correction: per the CDC “Hepatitis A is caused by hepatitis A virus (HAV). Transmission occurs by the fecal-oral route, either by *direct contact with an HAV-infected person* or by ingestion of HAV-contaminated food or water.”
PPE became mandatory in the 80s when insurance companies instituted “universal precautions”. You had to treat every patient you came in contact with as if they had something communicable. I was a nurse at the time and in just a single day, our jobs changed dramatically. Not saying it’s a bad thing, just that that’s the reason.
@@smlorrin Think about it… lol it doesn’t mean you’re in direct contact with the patient’s butt. Well I suppose you could be, but you’d be doing CPR reaaaallly wrong. You’re not arguing with me, that’s a literal quote from the CDC site.
Shady is huge fan of Corrections, and was poking fun at all of us jackals by writing his letter for Seth to read on Corrections in E.B White typewriter written letter form. Shady is funny motherfucker.
Correction: There is an extended version of Lord of the Rings...for WHOM? Whom, Seth. It's obviously the objective, not the subjective, case. You are better than this and the jackals deserve better.
Correction: Grammatically speaking the up in stand up is considered part of a phrasal verb NOT an adverb. A phrasal verb is generally a verb plus a preposition. A single lexical unit is formed resulting, in often times, a new verb. While up does infact modify or describe part of the verb (in stand up) it doesn't function with all stative verbs. For example, like up, love up, have up, owe up. Consider that stand up is referring to a single action making it a verb. Finally, an adverb describes the verb and because this is a phrasal verb, not an adverb, one can thusly be added. Stand up quickly! Quickly is the adverb describing how one stands up. Hopefully this helps.
Doesn't it just depend on the theory of grammar you subscribe to? I would say that in phrases like 'stand up', 'sit up', 'get up', 'look up' etc. up functions as an adverb because it modifies the verb in predictable ways. Whereas phrases like 'own up' and 'throw up' are definitely phrasal verbs because the meaning is greater than the sum of parts. Also there are plenty of adverbs which do not apply to all verbs.. how about have quickly and owe quickly?
The 'up' in 'stand up' is entirely superfluous. A simple "would the real Slim Shady please stand!" would not only suffice, it would avoid all discussion of things up with which we will not put.
While Seth’s book may be the first to ever have a bear and a rabbit in it, they met much earlier in a joke: A bear and a rabbit are talking in the forest when the conversation turns personal. The bear asks the rabbit if he ever has problems with crap sticking to his fur. The rabbit replies that he does not. So the bear picks up the rabbit and wipes his ass with it.
I literally made a shriek/cackle sound when you read that letter. God, I love Corrections. Please never stop, it's the funniest thing to me for some crazy reason. Pure brilliance
Are we just going to ignore the tiny bottle of water flying away and leaving a splatter of water on Seth, like a scared bird pooping as it takes off? You're making these too easy for us Seth.
So, the whole “don’t end a sentence with a preposition” ignores that a common and entirely normal feature of Indo-European languages (maybe only the European ones?) is that verbs are commonly paired with a preposition in order to change their meaning. e.g. ”to throw out” is different from “to throw up”. This can be much better seen in German, where “anfahren” is different from “umfahren” which is different from “umfahren”. OK, so, that last one isn’t too clear until you make it a sentence: „ich habe den Hund umfahren“, and „ich habe den Hund umgefahren.” Also Latin, “exspīrō” is different from “inspīrō”, leading to English “expire” and “inspire”, respectively. So in the case of “stand up” while in English, the “up” is typically called an adverb in this position, it’s because “adverb” is often used as a catch all term for anything that doesn’t fit the other categories nicely, but it’s better to say that “stand up” is the the verbal phrase, because the “up” is a necessary component to understand the correct semantics of the verb. The “who found a curb to stomp you on” is also a demonstration of a verbal phrase where “stomp on” is different from just plain “stomp”, the “to” in this case makes it clear that we are building a verbal phrase in the infinitive, compare “who found a flower to smell”. So the “to stomp you on” is the complete verbal adjunct, so we can really boil looking at this down to only that phrase. “to stomp on you” would clearly means that the curb is being “stomped on” into you, while “to stomp you on” clearly means that you are the object that will be “stomped on” into the curb. As with so much of linguistics, descriptivists have come to find out that prescriptivist “grammarian” rules for English have no basis in actual language study, but instead were contrived rules to create an artificial language as a barrier into “writing properly”. Think Arya in Game of Thrones where she says, “my Lord” instead of “m’Lord“, and this immediately gives her away as not a commoner. By enforcing these grammarian rules, the elites were able to recognize a text that was _not_ written by an elite, and thus dismiss it without consideration with the notes “this person does not known how to compose a proper English sentence.” You know… like us Jackals do.
Adjectives modify nouns, adverbs modify verbs. You don't just randomly call a part of speech an adverb because you don't know what it does. In the case of 'stand up', up modifies the verb by answering the question, 'stand how?'. However, it's a very polyvalent word, functioning as an adjective or a preposition as well.
@@chezmoi42 I see. It doesn't make sense for it to be part of the verbal phrase! Now I can take that new knowledge and truly understand "stand down." It's just an adverb! It just means to literally stand down! As you do! I am ready to let the Oxford English Dictionary know about this development!
@@chezmoi42 @chez moi “that is an unusually small tree”. Adverbs also modify adjectives, not just nouns. And again, the “up” in “stand up” is not necessarily answering “stand how?” any more than “throw up” is answering “throw how?”
Every reaction channel on RUclips inevitably watches LotR because it's a sure-fire views-getter. Most of them opt for the theatrical version of Fellowship, because they're unsure about liking a movie where a bunch of elves and wizards run through the woods for three hours. Then like 90% of the commenters bully them into watching the extended versions for the other two. Having watched way too many LotR reactions, I can say this scenario happens with astonishing frequency. Oh, and also when they get to the end of Fellowship they almost always say "wait! That's the ending? It's over already?!"
Glad to see a comment about the LOTR diss. I would watch 200 hours of unused footage if I could. 11 hours and 22 minutes is too short! It's for us specific nerds Seth!
Ents aren’t “tree people.” They are Shepherds of the Trees. The Ents are akin to Huorns, whom Treebeard describes as a transitional form of trees which become animated or, conversely, as Ents who grow more "treelike" over time.
I watched Severance this week, only off of Adam Scott being in it and the "liminal space" vibes I got from a couple of still shots. I love going into stuff like this blind and it paid off once again. Fantastic show.

The Lord of the Rings extended edition is how I got my husband - I pretended to like it, and he got offended I called the Ents trees, and 19 years later (almost 13 married) it's the story that makes everyone go "aww, you're both weird." 😆
"Stand up" is a phrasal verb, which is a verb plus one or more prepositions that change the basic meaning. You need the "up" to indicate that the person or people were not already standing (e.g. sitting, lounging). In that instance, it's fine if the last word of the sentence is a preposition, since it's part of the verb.
Correction: it's incorrect to say "less than a 50/50 chance" because you laid out both outcomes. If you said "less than 50% chance he answers" then that would be correct. 9:13
When he busted out the metal water bottle, I thought the joke was going be that he'd drink out of it until he ran out, then throw it away and grab another metal water bottle.
I loved that Michael Caine/Peter O’toole sketch. I remember catching it live but it got cut from the syndicated versions for years. I looked for it for so long before they finally put it on YT.
Thank goodness for YT ruclips.net/video/7IcpLx1tlrk/видео.html. And Jude Law is actually excellent in it. Seth, ... well... we're all glad he went to Impression Camp.
I'm fairly confident that, last week, you didn't say that Sean Bean dies in all his movies, but that he's famous FOR dying in all his movies. Obliviously you don't have to actually do the thing you're famous for doing (For example, amongst other things Humphry Bogart is famous for saying 'Play it again, Sam' which he never did), so I think you didn't need to correct yourself here.
The _flow_ of the prologue into the Shire and up to Bilbo's party is objectively better in the theatrical cut but overall the extended editions _are_ great. _(the title card as we see Frodo against the tree and the timing/swell of the Shire theme from there to "fireworks Gandalf, fireworks..." always 'got me in the feels" so perfectly that I find that part of the EE version particularly jarring though)_ -- With most movie's deleted scenes it's pretty obvious why they were cut and directors cuts tend to be really _indulgent_ and while _(for example)_ I loved how much more depth there was to the plot in the Cameron cut of Terminator 2, as a whole cinematic experience I'd be hard pressed to call it an improvement.
@@llYossarian I think what makes Lord of the Rings different from most other extended or director's cuts is that the theatrical release WAS Peter Jackson's intended creative vision for that format. He went into the project knowing there would be more than could be realistically squeezed into a theatrical runtime so he wrote around that. The fact that all three theatrical cuts for the movies (for the most part) had everything they needed to tell the story, made the extended editions feel like less of a cash grab, adding to the world and characters instead of "fixing" the movie (looking your way, DCEU). The death of Saruman should have been in the theatrical version, though.
@@llYossarian I've always been tempted to watch the theatrical cuts just to see what is actually missing in those version. Yet I don't want to lose like an hour-two of extra scenes lol.
Not a correction, just a PSA: Please don't do this thing with the microwave where it's running with the door open!! There's a reason they're normally built so that they _won't_ run with the door open because exposed microwave radiation can be very dangerous in general, not just when exposing your testicles to it... The door completes a faraday cage with the rest of the box so that with the door closed, the radiation is shielded.
Correction: the lifeguards dont need to put on the gloves for CPR. Most of what they deal with is first-aid, like cuts and scrapes. That is what the gloves are for.

1. I often forget what's in the original LotR movies because I've watched them most often as extended editions. I accidentally watched a non-extended one once and was like, "Wait, where's the rest of the movie?" 2. I am SO ready to watch Seth Meyers and Stephen Colbert throw down over LotR. Like, not a want, a NEED.
Just wanted to acknowledge that I recently found out Chance the Rapper now has his own Ben & Jerry’s flavor and this leaves me even more disappointed in Seth’s inability to secure a similar honor. I ask myself, why do I even watch if not to partake in a television themed dairy dessert whilst watching said show?
Even though I love Strunk and White, I also love Eminem be White’s verse-and even though I love LOTR, I always laugh when Seth drags it. Though I do wonder if his recommendation of Severance can be trusted with taste like that
"Rudy Giuliani's first wife was his second cousin" - my brain is melting trying to understand how "was" grammatically applies in that sentence. This is jackal kryptonite.
Ah, but she *was* his wife, but *is* his second cousin. Grammatically, which is applicable? On further thought I think it is *is*, as the *first* wife already implies that he's no longer married, and would have to be "ex-wife" if he didn't remarry. Perhaps "Rudy Giuliani's wife was his second cousin", without the "first" would be acceptable, as it's referring to the transitive property of "wife", not any specific individual.
They aren't mutually exclusive. She both WAS his second cousin and also now IS his second cousin, so I think "was" was fine and is fine. I WAS drunk when I watched corrections and AM drunk while commenting.
Mickey and Minnie are in couples therapy. Therapist: Mickey, if I'm hearing this correctly, you're annoyed with Minnie because she is "silly". Mickey: I didn't say she was "silly", I said "she was f**king Goofy".

And getting out a new one!
I really wanted the next one to be him trying to poor a massive water cooler jug into his stainless steel bottle. The physical comedy alone would have been amazing.

I never realized there was Meyers/Colbert rivalry until I heard Seth’s take on Lord of the Rings 🤣
Oh Stephen would FIGHT HIM lol
Debate to the death.
Seth is trying really hard to get into a feud with Stephen. 😂😂🤣
It's true! Plus Seth and team have decided to be honest and have a political position that isn't dead-center-of-the-road, right next to the squashed armadillos. Colbert has decided money is God and he should keep his hot takes off of CBS, saving them for his brilliant and underrated Our Cartoon President.
@@joseph-zoramcbride4029 I really respect Seth's political position. He isn't afraid to say some of the stuff that I would hesitate to say in his place.
CORRECTION: Gloves won't make a difference with Hep A while doing CPR. Actually, a lot of the safety contact stuff related to First Aid spawned during the 80's. The average Joe is still spooked by medical misinformation from 40 years ago. It's a real problem in that people who know how to do CPR will refuse to do it out of fear of not having all the PPE. Sadly, that unfounded fear is why you now have First Aid training to include "chest compressions only" even though it's less effective.
Correction correction: per the CDC
“Hepatitis A is caused by hepatitis A virus (HAV). Transmission occurs by the fecal-oral route, either by *direct contact with an HAV-infected person* or by ingestion of HAV-contaminated food or water.”
@@ashlei315 Yeah, but even with direct contact, when is there a fecal-oral route involved in first aid?
PPE became mandatory in the 80s when insurance companies instituted “universal precautions”. You had to treat every patient you came in contact with as if they had something communicable. I was a nurse at the time and in just a single day, our jobs changed dramatically. Not saying it’s a bad thing, just that that’s the reason.
There’s a mouth guard for mouth to mouth resuscitation.
@@smlorrin Think about it… lol it doesn’t mean you’re in direct contact with the patient’s butt. Well I suppose you could be, but you’d be doing CPR reaaaallly wrong. You’re not arguing with me, that’s a literal quote from the CDC site.
The Extended Edition is actually much better than regular LOTR, just saying. Also, read your book to the kids at my work. They liked it.
Thank you!!!
Agreed! I'm sure Stephen Colbert agrees too
If Stephen corrects Seth on how the extended version is better, would that make Stephen one of us? Celebrity Jackal! :)
I’m on board jokingly poking the bear, aka Shady. But I feel like Em’s letter would be written in pencil on a wrinkled scrap of legal paper.
If only for the better sound.
Shady is huge fan of Corrections, and was poking fun at all of us jackals by writing his letter for Seth to read on Corrections in E.B White typewriter written letter form. Shady is funny motherfucker.
@@misterdoctor9693 And we would have heard Eminem read the letter instead of Seth.
I dunno, since Seth is tying it in with the E B White jokes by signing it “Eminem B White” I think it makes sense to stick with the typewriter.🤷🏻♀️

It’s the couple few hours reading through the comments each time!
And I'd do it all over again as oppposed to watching one second of an LOTR film.
Correction: There is an extended version of Lord of the Rings...for WHOM?
Whom, Seth. It's obviously the objective, not the subjective, case. You are better than this and the jackals deserve better.
That's the one I noticed and was checking to see if it had already been caught.

And we all know it's for Stephen Colbert
👏👏🐾🐾
Truly a precious piece of arch/meta comedy. Thank you for the water bottle, call back bit...stupid in the smartest way.
Correction: Grammatically speaking the up in stand up is considered part of a phrasal verb NOT an adverb. A phrasal verb is generally a verb plus a preposition. A single lexical unit is formed resulting, in often times, a new verb. While up does infact modify or describe part of the verb (in stand up) it doesn't function with all stative verbs. For example, like up, love up, have up, owe up. Consider that stand up is referring to a single action making it a verb. Finally, an adverb describes the verb and because this is a phrasal verb, not an adverb, one can thusly be added.
Stand up quickly!
Quickly is the adverb describing how one stands up.
Hopefully this helps.
you missed an "is" at last line of fist paragraph. sad
Doesn't it just depend on the theory of grammar you subscribe to? I would say that in phrases like 'stand up', 'sit up', 'get up', 'look up' etc. up functions as an adverb because it modifies the verb in predictable ways. Whereas phrases like 'own up' and 'throw up' are definitely phrasal verbs because the meaning is greater than the sum of parts. Also there are plenty of adverbs which do not apply to all verbs.. how about have quickly and owe quickly?
@@mortezakiaee
This was an epic response.
The fact that it has a typo makes it even better!🤣
The 'up' in 'stand up' is entirely superfluous. A simple "would the real Slim Shady please stand!" would not only suffice, it would avoid all discussion of things up with which we will not put.
@@Jacob_Junge Yeah, but try singing the lyrics with the last syllable missing. It's the musical equivalent of stubbing your toe.
Best moment in a great Corrections: someone in the crew attempts a "Goofy laugh" at 7:30
Searched for this comment longer than the video runtime. Well played, friend.
The extended version is FOR ME!!! And Mr Colbert, of course. Thanks to the production team. 😉
I saw this was posted 7 minutes ago and thought, “I’M MISSING IT!”
I live for Corrections.
While Seth’s book may be the first to ever have a bear and a rabbit in it, they met much earlier in a joke: A bear and a rabbit are talking in the forest when the conversation turns personal. The bear asks the rabbit if he ever has problems with crap sticking to his fur. The rabbit replies that he does not. So the bear picks up the rabbit and wipes his ass with it.
I am actually laughing.
I didn’t realize where this was going until to late. 🤭
I literally made a shriek/cackle sound when you read that letter. God, I love Corrections. Please never stop, it's the funniest thing to me for some crazy reason. Pure brilliance

Are we just going to ignore the tiny bottle of water flying away and leaving a splatter of water on Seth, like a scared bird pooping as it takes off? You're making these too easy for us Seth.
Yes, he's just wasting perfectly good water now 😏
So, the whole “don’t end a sentence with a preposition” ignores that a common and entirely normal feature of Indo-European languages (maybe only the European ones?) is that verbs are commonly paired with a preposition in order to change their meaning. e.g. ”to throw out” is different from “to throw up”. This can be much better seen in German, where “anfahren” is different from “umfahren” which is different from “umfahren”. OK, so, that last one isn’t too clear until you make it a sentence: „ich habe den Hund umfahren“, and „ich habe den Hund umgefahren.” Also Latin, “exspīrō” is different from “inspīrō”, leading to English “expire” and “inspire”, respectively.
So in the case of “stand up” while in English, the “up” is typically called an adverb in this position, it’s because “adverb” is often used as a catch all term for anything that doesn’t fit the other categories nicely, but it’s better to say that “stand up” is the the verbal phrase, because the “up” is a necessary component to understand the correct semantics of the verb.
The “who found a curb to stomp you on” is also a demonstration of a verbal phrase where “stomp on” is different from just plain “stomp”, the “to” in this case makes it clear that we are building a verbal phrase in the infinitive, compare “who found a flower to smell”. So the “to stomp you on” is the complete verbal adjunct, so we can really boil looking at this down to only that phrase. “to stomp on you” would clearly means that the curb is being “stomped on” into you, while “to stomp you on” clearly means that you are the object that will be “stomped on” into the curb.
As with so much of linguistics, descriptivists have come to find out that prescriptivist “grammarian” rules for English have no basis in actual language study, but instead were contrived rules to create an artificial language as a barrier into “writing properly”. Think Arya in Game of Thrones where she says, “my Lord” instead of “m’Lord“, and this immediately gives her away as not a commoner. By enforcing these grammarian rules, the elites were able to recognize a text that was _not_ written by an elite, and thus dismiss it without consideration with the notes “this person does not known how to compose a proper English sentence.” You know… like us Jackals do.
NERRRRD
@@thewizardofthecreek It's a Clash of the Cultures. You think that's an insult. He thinks it's praise.
Adjectives modify nouns, adverbs modify verbs. You don't just randomly call a part of speech an adverb because you don't know what it does. In the case of 'stand up', up modifies the verb by answering the question, 'stand how?'. However, it's a very polyvalent word, functioning as an adjective or a preposition as well.
@@chezmoi42 I see. It doesn't make sense for it to be part of the verbal phrase! Now I can take that new knowledge and truly understand "stand down." It's just an adverb! It just means to literally stand down! As you do! I am ready to let the Oxford English Dictionary know about this development!
@@chezmoi42 @chez moi “that is an unusually small tree”. Adverbs also modify adjectives, not just nouns.
And again, the “up” in “stand up” is not necessarily answering “stand how?” any more than “throw up” is answering “throw how?”
The extended version of LotR is literally the definitive version that people watch. Nobody watches the theatrical versions 21 years later
Every reaction channel on RUclips inevitably watches LotR because it's a sure-fire views-getter. Most of them opt for the theatrical version of Fellowship, because they're unsure about liking a movie where a bunch of elves and wizards run through the woods for three hours. Then like 90% of the commenters bully them into watching the extended versions for the other two. Having watched way too many LotR reactions, I can say this scenario happens with astonishing frequency. Oh, and also when they get to the end of Fellowship they almost always say "wait! That's the ending? It's over already?!"
@@christopherlundgren1700 Reaction videos are cancer
Pouring the water into the bottle was absolutely brilliant, I don't care what anyone says.
Have had such a hard week that I genuinely said 'Oh thank god' out loud when I saw this was posted!
Lawyer: Mickey, you can't divorce Minnie Mouse because she is crazy.
Mickey: I didn't say she was crazy ... I said she was f*cking Goofy.
This is a funny joke, but I'd be very surprised if insanity was not legal grounds for divorce.
I would like an extended version of this corrections please. 15 min is not enough
Glad to see a comment about the LOTR diss. I would watch 200 hours of unused footage if I could. 11 hours and 22 minutes is too short! It's for us specific nerds Seth!
Omg i almost died laughing when Seth picked up the cup … I wish they put it exactly like that in the store 😅
Jackals, assemble!
No! Not yet. We’re at the Winter Soldier/Age of Ultron section of Corrections, where the “Assemble…” line is teased, but not said 🤣🤣🤣
I'd rather ass-amble
Ents aren’t “tree people.” They are Shepherds of the Trees. The Ents are akin to Huorns, whom Treebeard describes as a transitional form of trees which become animated or, conversely, as Ents who grow more "treelike" over time.
So tree people
I watched Severance this week, only off of Adam Scott being in it and the "liminal space" vibes I got from a couple of still shots. I love going into stuff like this blind and it paid off once again. Fantastic show.
The extended LOTR is totally worth a watch. Seth you'll be hearing from Colbert, you've been warned.....
People uhh watch uhhh Colbert uhhh?
Stephen Colbert is boring nothing fresh still trying to do the potato gag like a thousand times this last week I can't stand that show.
Seth on the other hand we watch his videos like a hawk to keep him in line cuz he keeps screwing up he's funny when he screws up but we keep him in line so he doesn't get in trouble but he should at least give us 20 minutes worth of his time for all we do to support him in his mistakes and blunders.

The Lord of the Rings extended edition is how I got my husband - I pretended to like it, and he got offended I called the Ents trees, and 19 years later (almost 13 married) it's the story that makes everyone go "aww, you're both weird." 😆
12:29 How do you you understand which sticker came first? Wouldn't be better to make a graph with an axis for time and one for position?
"Stand up" is a phrasal verb, which is a verb plus one or more prepositions that change the basic meaning. You need the "up" to indicate that the person or people were not already standing (e.g. sitting, lounging). In that instance, it's fine if the last word of the sentence is a preposition, since it's part of the verb.
Correction: it's incorrect to say "less than a 50/50 chance" because you laid out both outcomes. If you said "less than 50% chance he answers" then that would be correct. 9:13
Wouldn't a 40/60 chance be less than a 50/50 chance?
When he busted out the metal water bottle, I thought the joke was going be that he'd drink out of it until he ran out, then throw it away and grab another metal water bottle.

I loved that Michael Caine/Peter O’toole sketch. I remember catching it live but it got cut from the syndicated versions for years. I looked for it for so long before they finally put it on YT.
Thank goodness for YT ruclips.net/video/7IcpLx1tlrk/видео.html. And Jude Law is actually excellent in it. Seth, ... well... we're all glad he went to Impression Camp.
Most epic letter all time calling it.
I'm fairly confident that, last week, you didn't say that Sean Bean dies in all his movies, but that he's famous FOR dying in all his movies. Obliviously you don't have to actually do the thing you're famous for doing (For example, amongst other things Humphry Bogart is famous for saying 'Play it again, Sam' which he never did), so I think you didn't need to correct yourself here.
That feeling when I've never even seen the theatrical versions of LoTR. Extended editions are completely worth the watch.
Same hehehe
That he knew about the Ents makes me think that Seth might know a bit more about LOTR than he lets on.
The _flow_ of the prologue into the Shire and up to Bilbo's party is objectively better in the theatrical cut but overall the extended editions _are_ great. _(the title card as we see Frodo against the tree and the timing/swell of the Shire theme from there to "fireworks Gandalf, fireworks..." always 'got me in the feels" so perfectly that I find that part of the EE version particularly jarring though)_ -- With most movie's deleted scenes it's pretty obvious why they were cut and directors cuts tend to be really _indulgent_ and while _(for example)_ I loved how much more depth there was to the plot in the Cameron cut of Terminator 2, as a whole cinematic experience I'd be hard pressed to call it an improvement.
@@llYossarian I think what makes Lord of the Rings different from most other extended or director's cuts is that the theatrical release WAS Peter Jackson's intended creative vision for that format. He went into the project knowing there would be more than could be realistically squeezed into a theatrical runtime so he wrote around that. The fact that all three theatrical cuts for the movies (for the most part) had everything they needed to tell the story, made the extended editions feel like less of a cash grab, adding to the world and characters instead of "fixing" the movie (looking your way, DCEU).
The death of Saruman should have been in the theatrical version, though.
@@llYossarian I've always been tempted to watch the theatrical cuts just to see what is actually missing in those version. Yet I don't want to lose like an hour-two of extra scenes lol.
"Eminimen (be white)" is just so clever!

Not a correction, just a PSA: Please don't do this thing with the microwave where it's running with the door open!! There's a reason they're normally built so that they _won't_ run with the door open because exposed microwave radiation can be very dangerous in general, not just when exposing your testicles to it... The door completes a faraday cage with the rest of the box so that with the door closed, the radiation is shielded.

Correction: the lifeguards dont need to put on the gloves for CPR. Most of what they deal with is first-aid, like cuts and scrapes. That is what the gloves are for.
People running around the pool, standing water creates surface tension on cement surfaces filling the pores and make it slick. Falls, slides, and impacts are why life guards yelling "No running"
Thanks, no longer will I lose sleep wondering how the gloves protect their mouths.
The water bottle and written letter have long range staying power. Fannnnntastic.
1. I often forget what's in the original LotR movies because I've watched them most often as extended editions. I accidentally watched a non-extended one once and was like, "Wait, where's the rest of the movie?"
2. I am SO ready to watch Seth Meyers and Stephen Colbert throw down over LotR. Like, not a want, a NEED.
That ending was exquisite! This is truly one of my favorite shows ever. Thank you!
The water bottles 😂 I love it
Yess "Severance" is absolutely fantastic!!
It is "for whom?" You use whom after a preposition. 🥰
Highlight of my week! Honestly some of the best "tv" I've ever seen.
Just wanted to acknowledge that I recently found out Chance the Rapper now has his own Ben & Jerry’s flavor and this leaves me even more disappointed in Seth’s inability to secure a similar honor. I ask myself, why do I even watch if not to partake in a television themed dairy dessert whilst watching said show?
I used to always skip over these, but I'm glad I finally checked them out!
It's not a Jackal mug without mistakes.
Excellent point!
My eyes actually thought it read “noight” and I thought noice!
I look forward to this every Friday soooo much!!! 🥰
Even though I love Strunk and White, I also love Eminem be White’s verse-and even though I love LOTR, I always laugh when Seth drags it. Though I do wonder if his recommendation of Severance can be trusted with taste like that
Still have my Strunk & White from hs journalism. And that's 50 friggin' years!
I feel like NOT watching Severance because I don't like being told what to do!
Thank you so much for all the bonus content, Seth and team!
"Rudy Giuliani's first wife was his second cousin" - my brain is melting trying to understand how "was" grammatically applies in that sentence. This is jackal kryptonite.
No it isn't.
She was his first wife, but then he remarried. Making the first wife/cousin past tense.
You could use 'was' or 'is' in this case: she was his second cousin in the past, she (still) is his second cousin now.
Ah, but she *was* his wife, but *is* his second cousin. Grammatically, which is applicable?
On further thought I think it is *is*, as the *first* wife already implies that he's no longer married, and would have to be "ex-wife" if he didn't remarry.
Perhaps "Rudy Giuliani's wife was his second cousin", without the "first" would be acceptable, as it's referring to the transitive property of "wife", not any specific individual.
They aren't mutually exclusive. She both WAS his second cousin and also now IS his second cousin, so I think "was" was fine and is fine. I WAS drunk when I watched corrections and AM drunk while commenting.
@@SimonBuchanNz You're asking about two different things there:
whether she is (still) his wife
whether she is (still) his 2nd cousin
