#CaptainAmerica #marvel #videoessay
Scott, no matter how much anxiety and pressure that you feel, your videos show the immense amount of work you put in. Your work is incredibly valued. Please take pride in your work. I know this nerd will be here to support your amazing work.
Couldn't have said it better.
Thank you so much!
I have to concur with you.
Right there with you he’s incredible and does his research and it shows!
@@NerdSyncProductions There's one specific aspect that you forgot to mention the application & use of ketones .. also there's been & still a lot of deep talk amongst the u.s. spec ops community about the experimentation & trial uses of such experimental performance enhancing measures
Don’t do drugs kids! Unless the drug is *FREEDOM JUICE!!!* “Sreeeeeeeeeeech” -Bald Eagle
Rhett M Why’d you write so many comments?
Or Weed, weed is pretty chill.
Winners don’t use drugs, except superhero steroids. In which case, do a lot of drugs!
Kenny Tran I understood that reference.
That's sadly not a bald eagle noise, but a red - tailed hawk.
"Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should."
ReplayStation Gah I love that quote. It describes a lot of things happening in the world today.
from what I've observed, our only concern over the last 20 years has been "how can we tie everything up in as much red tape as possible so nobody ever gets to use it, and what little we release for consumers is inferior to the available products they previously had"
Maybe let's fix that first. Then step back and look at stuff. then do things.
your scientists were were... were so preoccupied with whether or not they COULD... they didn't uh, stop to think if they, uh, uh, should
ReplayStation ah a desperate attempt at sounding smart
LAST UCHIHA which is more than anything anyone can say about you
In the wise words of Dr. Ian Malcolm, "Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn't stop to think if they should." Come to watch a video about the science behind Captain America, leave pondering the social responsibility of technological and scientific progress. Fascinating and scary at the same time. Great, great video.
This reminds me of the eugenics wars in star trek, creating super humans can create a super smart strong criminal, creepy if you ask me
@@johnosullivan7204 that will someday happen -- We wanted Captain America , but instead we got Noonian Khan !!!!
I know Comic Book Red Skull isn't a Super Soldier, but MCU Red Skull is, and what terrifies me more than anything is that like in the MCU, the first Super Soldier wouldn't be a Rogers, but a Schmidt.
I honestly feel like it'd more likely be some rich guy that is now just innately smarter, stronger and longer-lived than all the people around him. So what, if you're their competitor, are you supposed to do about it?
Even in the comics (unless this is no longer canon) there was another recipient of the serum before Steve called Protocide (or something like that). So yeah, we'd be lucky if someone like Steve was the first super soldier. Most likely not...
He will be, Major developments in Human CRIPSPR tech for past few years has been in Russia and China, because the leaders in west USA, EU and UK have decided to ban or limit research.
@@NerdSyncProductions There is also Wilhelm Lohmer AKA Master Man. A Nazi super-soldier who was given a variant of super-soldier serum and got actual superpowers from it. Superhuman strength: could bench about 50 tons. Superhuman stamina and durability. Even unaided flight.
Yeah most the so-called civilized countries with exception of North Korea would have regulations not to do this. But trust me if it's possible they're going to do it in our country. But you're right places that we don't want to have that technology would be the first ones to use it. But in reality we're so far away from something like Captain America I'd say probably 30 years at least. The muscle regeneration and mass is the easy part I know I'm a bodybuilder and a biochemist. I'm more muscular than Captain America ever was in the movies. And I know what goes into that. problem is you got it to be genetic rather than training or pharmacologically induced which is why you need the serum. The regenerating effects are something that we don't have anywhere near close to yet. But we've got guys in real life that look like professor hulk. I'm not even joking most people have never even seen people that look like this in real life but they do. I know I've been backstage with 300 lb guy at 5 ft 10 in at a bodybuilding show. He had 70 lb of muscle on me and I'm bigger than anybody I know. I would never want to look like that
If we get the ability to make real-life super soldiers, the people we should be choosing people to become super soldiers should be people like Steve Rogers. People who have good Morals and stick to them, people who are willing to help others and not abuse their power.
It is a shame that people like that aren't very common.
You sound like you got the right attitude!
They're even less common in the military, which centers entirely around breaking regular people and turning them into soldiers willing and capable to follow even the most sadistic orders. A real Captain America would be a liability to higher ranking officers.
Yeah, but maybe just in their minds and not I their bodies because, you know, there's only so much that steroids can do.
I almost joined the military but I didnt because of the stories I heard of soldiers broken down so much that they'll follow the most sadistic orders. Now I work as a financial advisor helping people with money and help them save.
In a perfect world it would go that way but you know it will not work that way my friend. Almost to people I know that have any kind of real power are already corrupt. I'm not perfect by any means but I'm bigger and stronger and a way better fighter than almost anybody I've ever met. It's what I do for a living. And most time just being stronger and smarter does the trick without hurting anyone. I'm one of the few people I've met in my life that didn't turn into a bully when they got like this. Only reason I'm not that way is cuz I won't say I was as bad as Steve but I was 100 lb overweight little fat boy when I started. Now I got 80 lb of muscle on me compared to what I should have and to black belts. Yeah yeah I know I overcompensated lol I didn't like being picked on or anybody picking on somebody weaker than them. I absolutely hate bullies. And you know it will be the people that take advantage of this type of thing that should not be able to or even have the option. Hopefully there's somebody around like Rogers to tip the balance.
I guess Ironman was wrong, everything special that came out of Steve came in a nurotransplanted technical doohicky, not a bottle...
Avengers I reference, _classy_
Still Tony was right!
Hey, you wonderful nerds! Sorry for the slow release of videos. I'm really enjoying making longer videos like this. I know some of you might be annoyed and want more videos faster, but this sort of thing is more creatively fulfilling to me. Also, here's a playlist of more Captain America videos! ruclips.net/p/PLPEShH2LWsQDO74YCyZCdlcfERibbeQQI
Absolutely love the direction this channel is taking. One of your best videos Scott, keep it up!
I’m a strong believer in quality over quantity so this is great.
I like the more in depth video. Just miffed that RUclips’s algorithm didn’t show this on my main page. 😢 but glad you’re post caught my attention. 😁👍🏼
NerdSync This Video was AWSOME!!! I hope you make more of these videos with other superheroes!?!?
This is soooo goood!!!
I actually once wrote a long essay in my philosophy class about this. It was more focused on Star Trek and the Eugenics Wars though. I came to the concusion in that, that Super Soldiers were inevitable and wrote on the ethics and ramifications of it. Probably my favourite piece of writing I ever did myself.
Would love to read that :)
Forget Cap, this is the recipe for Rocket Raccoon!
I love this! lmao
Almost as much as I'm loving this deep dive, long video format! Great job, Scott 🙂
That was awesome
Does anyone else feel like that the professor resembles Tony Stark slightly?
I did...
🔴🔪🔵
I expected no less from the man who might pave the way for the real Sentinel of Liberty
@@esbenorionpax8544 sus
Norman Osborn's Goblin Formula is one of the closest formulas to the Super Soldier Serum, except is makes the user insane.
👍😉😂😂😂
Terry Turner aka Steroids lmaoo
If he hadn't killed the guys that wanted to go "back to formula", maybe they'd have gotten rid of that insanity issue lol
..... I'LL TAKE IT!
Terry Turner true
No he was already insane anyway cuz Harry was seeing things and he was conceived before his dad took the serum But yeah I probably enhanced his craziness anytime you take somebody and make them five times the strength and power of the norm they're going to have an ego most of the time and in a really really bad way. I'm way stronger and faster than most and the only reason I'm not a complete lunatic is because I know what it's like to be the little guy because that's how I started out. People automatically assume I'm an a****** just because of the way I look there's most people that look like me are.
Honestly, my big concern with all of this is classism. If people that can afford it can always be smarter and stronger, potentially even functionally immortal (Scott didn't really go into it but there's a possibility this technology can be used to make people that, after 30-40, don't age) then how can anyone not born into that class hope to compete?
Gattica babies, eh? I gotta see that movie!
Over time technology get cheaper
Only the wealthy and politicians will be allowed to have this while the middle class and below gets left out.
Why would we want it? You learn more working towards something than simply having it given to you. I'm not going to focus on something that may never happen. I'm going to work my body as hard as I can, so I can be proud of the power I obtain.
@@Silverwind-bc2cr so true. You appreciate things more when you know you worked hard for it.
The terrifying thing is there will be a time where stuff that once was sci-fi or comics books is a reality. AI is real now and in much the same way we should be talking about it. I mean that's literally what age of ultron was about and no-one in the real world talks about it. Scary
We'll get AI before we get a super soldier. At least one that matches caps abilities. I pretty well know what's available and possible right at the moment and there's so many things you'd have to change genetically about somebody to get a person like cap. I mean we're talking hundreds of thousands of genetic changes. It wouldn't be just one thing like a lot of people think like I have an extra 80 lb of muscle on me most of the time compared to what I normally would if I didn't know what I do. And that's an unbelievable amount of upkeep. And I'm smarter than most but that's just cuz I studied lol. Messing with your base genetic code scares me. We could end up editing ourselves into oblivion.
0:18 That alliteration tho... seriously sweet sentence structure!
super steroid science
This comment is underrated
SS...S.
The production value in your videos is insane, I felt like I just watched a short, professional documentary instead of a youtube video. This was a fascinating subject and I don't mind the fact that it took you longer to make at all, because it's soooo worth it!
You misspelt Captain Murica
No cap'n m'rica
You almost made me scroll up
@@munjee2 that's the Confederate version lol
Drug use in the superhero community must stop!
Hah😃😄😭😆!
We need to start drug testing these supers....its getting out of hand lol
You can download mazes into your brain?!? Also when you were talking about training, it reminded me of an episode of Heroes where a character who can fly is being persuaded to fight crime. But he's like 'how? I don't know how to fight or talk to criminals. I can just fly'. It's the same with strength, strength means nothing if you don't know how to use it. Maybe that's another reason the looming influx of real life super soldiers is so scary.
That's why Batman trained so hard.
This flyer sounds like he's a lot smarter than most so-called superheroes. I've never actually seen this tv show. Are there a lot of folks with interesting powers who decide they'd rather not fight crime or take on dangerous individuals and simply use their abilities to make their lives easier?
Kind of. Hard to answer that question, the show gets nuts.
well said, man! 👏
Don't worry we're still probably 30 years off from what they're talking about. I've kept up on all that science in the last 30 years. And you're so right. I know a lot of strong people that can't fight. I have two black belts and one of the reasons I'm such a good fighter is cuz I'm very strong. I'm a bodybuilder along with it and that has made the most success in my career. And I mean just being stronger and able to fight at the same time it allows me to do a lot of things that most people can't.I can overwhelm somebody and just hold them there where they can't do nothing rather than hurt them or if it comes down to it I can do that too. I locked into this guy one time that he looked like he was strong enough to tie me in a knot and I was 250 lb at 5'11. He was a big dude He look like the human version of a bear you know what I poked him in the eyes and that stopped him dead cold lol cheap move but hey it was better than getting turned into a pretzel.
They're doing Flowers for Algernon in real life?!
Really impressed by how your videos have improved, this was real slick, the style, the editing, love it.
This is incredibly important stuff. I appreciate you taking the time to make this thoughtful video.
6:49 hey I have that figure too, but I don’t really use the cap wolf head. Also man this was an awesome video! As for enhancing human biology I feel like it should be used to help those who really need it and to be used against diseases but I don’t think we should use it for everything. I think some of the people who would use this power wouldn’t use it responsibly.
Scott, it's been a while since I've seen a video of yours but this is some high quality stuff. The instrumentals and transitions are butter!
Tron also made frisbees cool weapons
The Persians had those back in the third century. They called them chakrams.
@@QueenBoadicea yes)!
@@QueenBoadicea it originated in India
@@fangselite1627 nah those Aryan people are basically Persian.
@@justdoit3928
Where in the hell do you get that bs?? Provide a link to reliable information!
For the fighting thing. In an interview with the Russo brothers after Winter Soldier released they said as soon as he joined SHIELD they trained him for 2 years in combat.
This was an awesome video scott; and i really enjoyed the way you incorporated the sponsor into the video, I've never enjoyed sponsor breaks this much before!
That man outta time finisher at the end though. Amazing video! Thanks for your incredibly hard work. It definitely shows!
Seriously, you have such incredible content. It's like watching a professionally produced tv Show.
Scott, I absolutely love what you've done editing-wise and the music is amazing. Keep going like this!
That business with the human brained mice sounds like a real life Secret of Nim... I wonder how these enhanced rodents feel about their enhancements
It’s been so long since nerd sync has made a video
I know. Follow NerdSync on twitter for updates about why videos take so long.
About your 4th point, here's a quote I quite like:
"You, are becoming Gods. There's a new master of creation, and it's you! Unraveled DNA, and at the same time you're cultivating bacteria strong enough to kill every living thing! Do you think you are ready for that much power? You lot? You lot? Cheeky bastards. You're running around science like kids with guns, creating a new world, while the world you've got is stinking, but, hands up, hands up anyone who thinks you've got it right. Yeah, there's always one. I can see you. If you want the position of God then take the responsibility."
~ Stephen Baxter - The Second Coming (TV Series)
Even if poeple do get these enhancements, we should at least make sure that it's the right poeple. Men and women who are just like cap and would use these abilities to help poeple and better life on earth rather than just use it for war and violence.
Yeah it should be that way but do you think it will? What if North Korea gets a hold of something like that? I guarantee you there's already places messing with human genome even if it's illegal it doesn't matter. I mean we're going to have to to be able to survive space travel anyway but in the next 5,200 years use kind of things are going to be reality. You might have to be a super soldier just to be able to survive what the plan is going to be like in the next hundred years.I'm going to enjoy my life while I can because we are heading for our own apocalypse. The planet will stabilize back eventually without us I hope.
This video was bloody great man! And the last few were INCREDIBLE too! Please please please keep going like this! The effort u put into them is amazing and makes them the best comic videos I've seen.
such a great video! as is always the case with your videos, i've learned so much, and am also challenged to question/wonder much more. i'm a sucker for this long-form stuff, so i'd say PLEASE give us more of these!
Let hope we don’t make a Red Skull.
No , Let make SKELETOR !!!👍💪💀
I should say, I have been writing a sci-fi book that heavily talks about genetic modification, and this video teached me a few things I had no idea about, loved the video so much, didn't even feel it was 22 minutes, I saw even the patreon credits and I'm not a patreon (yet). Keep the great work Scott. And thanks, to you and Professor Superheroscience (Professor E. Paul Zehr), for helping my book be even better.
This video was very well made. The production value is getting better and better every video. It is cool that you got a real science dude to help you.
Amazing video Scott
LOVE how you deliver your lines! Keep up the awesome content dude!
This video was amazing Scott, glad you didn't rush it out to meet the deadline
Another fantastic video, Scott! Who knew we were this close to having a real Captain America! Great work, as always!
that ending line gave me chills yo
This channel is so great. You and your crew put so much work into your videos
Fantastic video, Scott. I'm so glad you went straight to Cap's intelligence after the obvious physical effects. It's so easy for comics and fans to forget just how smart the process made him. Those interview scenes were great, especially since he was able to explain all of the science in simplistic/easy to digest explanations. But the most important part of the video was definitely the last part and I can't agree more that this need to be discussed morally as well as scientifically.
I honestly do think that human genetic enhancements are inevitable. Whether it ends up being something that totally reshapes society, military, or nothing but a fad that gets ignored for the most part, I don't know. And the question about the realtity of what happens AFTER a Cap America is made is as important as all the others involve in this subject.
Dude these are always worth the wait holy cow amazing video...even the ad!
Extremely Interesting and Amazing video!!! But another one of cap's powers that I believe others have mentioned is his slowed aging. Is this possible? I think this would be a great video topic. keep up the stellar work Scott!
It's a tricky slope even with what little I know. slowed aging is entirely possible but every time we try and compensate for certain things our body fights back. We're going to have to change aging at the genetic level. One of the main ways we evolve and compensate to our environment is We respond and upregulate our bodies according to the damage that we get to a certain extent. Now if you block that damage so you don't age you also damage the response to exercise and other stressors.We have internal antioxidants like SOD cytochrome c, catalase and glutathione.you can increase certain amounts of these to where it makes a difference but like if we increase or inject SOD and it only works injectable you cannot eat it or it just digests your body will down regulate its internal source.The only way that I seem to really affect this is plant-born antioxidants that are not endogenous to our bodies. But again if you overload them you blunt the response to exercise and other stressors.for example when we add these things into animals like dogs they live 25% longer. Answer your question yes we can but it's a delicate balance. to really be able to do it we were going to have to change things at the genetic level. Say for example dogs only live as long as they do because they burn so much hotter and do not have the internal antioxidants so the age. Well they don't have as much as us anyway. We have a lot more that's why we have a better lifespan. Our biggest track is to be able to replace cells longer. That way when they do get damaged we can replace them and keep going further than we would normally and we do have technology to do that to a certain extent now like epithalon. It increased lifespan and mice like 25% and in people it's probably more like 5 to 10 if you do it all the time. They're coming out with things now that you really got to know your stuff to navigate. I saw these products for a living and I'm better than anybody I've ever met that wasn't the people designing them. I'm even better than some of them as far as application but they're so much to know that you have to dedicate your life to it. The chronological age is how old we are according to the calendar biological age is how old we are inside. We can slow that down and prevent a lot of damage by our lifestyle.I feel sorry for a person getting into this though because there's so much misinformation out there it's unbelievable. And people tend to forget something major at least once every generation. I'm 45 and I remember things like the whole keto diet that is shown to actually have massive problems in the long run that nobody remembers from 20 years ago because there's a new generation and money can be made. Anyway take care of yourself and again knowledge is power it's the best way to protect yourself cuz nobody else will do it like you can
Excellent video as always, Scott. I always look forward to your videos, and this one did not disappoint!
This was a great video. I love being encouraged and challenged to think by comics! Man, the work you do on this channel. Awesome job!
I fear we’re already far overdue for a “serious conversation” about genetic manipulation. Much like that conversation we had about the Internet, social media, and what that means for our privacy, or that conversation when we discussed the serious implications of leaded gasoline. Technology grows exponentially, but society doesn’t. As long as there’s money to be made, ethics, as you said, is going to be sidelined.
Without a doubt one of your best videos Scott, keep up your awesomeness!
This deserves so many more likes! I'm super glad that I checked this out
I thought he was gonna say that he was gonna volunteer to test the serums.
The Pentagon has probably been looking into making super-soldiers since Pearl Harbor.
Looking into it and doing it obviously are two different things thank God. in order to get somebody like Cap you're going to have to change thousands of genes in the human body. Combinations of different changes will do different things. That's the reason we haven't done it yet is because there's a lot involved. they didn't have anywhere near the technology to do this kind of thing in the '40s we're just beginning to now.rather than a super soldier I would like to see them cure things like spina bifida and down syndrome. Not in vitro either but if a person already has them. I trained a 13-year-old girl a little while back that had the last 3 vertebrae in her columnnot form correctly. Parts of her legs were permanently paralyzed and there was nothing they could do. To see a beautiful little 13-year-old girl go through that was almost more than I could take. All she wanted to do was walk down the aisle without the Forrest Gump braces on her prom. She worked hard enough to where she was able to do that. I trained her for free for 2 years so she could have that experience and it was the most rewarding thing I've ever done. What really really bothered me was with everything I know and I studied I couldn't do anything but train her. I could only slightly help the problem and I mean maybe like 25% at the most. The day we can inject her with something and she regenerate and rebuild those in a couple of months to where she would life a normal life then I would say we made some progress. I would much rather cure suffering than have super soldiers. That's weird coming from me because I'm a bodybuilder that goes after physical perfection. But injury regeneration is something that plagues everybody if they get old enough. If I was able to start over in my education like at 15 years old again I would study my entire life to be able to help a girl like her. I wouldn't be as selfish as I was and reaching for physical perfection myself. I would have started helping people earlier.
Hi, Scott. Just wanted to congratulate you on placing your mid-roll advertisements so well. That's a sign of a professional attitude to your work.
I loved the actual video too!
This video is awesome! The time spent making it shows. Well done.
just hope any such tech doesn't fall in to the wrong hands and is only used on people with the emotional and intellectual maturity to handle it.
🤔 Like the vril?
no I like the mystery of Madam Maria Orsic. and good on you for recognizing her in this tiny cropped photo.
This is so interesting! This type of videos is why I subscribed! Please keep up the great work!
Great Video Scott! Always look forward to when you upload
When's CapWolf going to be in the MCU?
Right after Werewolf by Night and Man-Wolf. :-p
I love the direction the channel is going in. Keep up the great videos!
This was a fantastic video. Thank you for sharing, Scott!
Wonderful job, Scott! 👏👏👏👏👏
"intelligently. Which brings us to- [cuts away to ad featuring an airplane in midair]" is the funniest sequence of things in this video that only I was ever able to see.
This is the first video of yours I have truly found to be amazing. Keep up the good work.
Question before it's reality.
Who can afford it? Who is it tested on? What is it used for? Should it be legal?
It'll never happen My friend it'll be just like Jurassic Park. Do first ask questions later! Unfortunately that's the human way As long as there's money to be made anyway.
This video is amazing, never ever stop!
I was just about to go to sleep when the notification popped. I’m glad I caught it. Keep up the great work.
One of the things I enjoyed about the Captain America movie was his "I just figured that out" look. I think they were trying to convey to us how much was improvised on the fly. He learned by doing far faster than us, and that learning was more valuable, and it all "stuck".
YEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSS!!!! Being waiting for this since the last livestream. :)
There were multiple super soldiers in the 50s that followed the Cap's steps. The Patriot, Namor, Human Torch, Toro, Angel, Black Marvel, Golden Girl, Jack Frost, Whizzer, Union Jack, Falcon,Tommy Lightning, The Destroyer, Red Raven, Captain Daring, Dyna-Mite, Ghost Girl, Thunderfist, Spitfire, Captain Wings, Miss America, Thin Man, Blazing Skull, Blue Diamond, Aarkus The Vision, Blonde Phantom, The Thunderer, Challenger, Citizen V (both), The Fin. There were even Phantom Eagle, the OG Union Jack Montgomery Falsworth and even the Phantom Rider that predated him. Marvel superheroes go a long way back and most of them were either in the army or the public servants.
dude, captain America has been my idol since i discovered marvel comics in the late 80s, i really appreciate this video
The editing in this video is wonderful
That final chapter is so dark, yet so interesting to think about. Such a fantastic video.
How did I miss this video?! It's so good! I mean all of your videos are but that's besides the point
The video and editing quality was incredible (not that most of your videos aren’t great)! Keep up the good work Scott!
Great video. I really liked the final third.
This is by far the best NerdSync Episode!
I've been a fan of Cap since I was 8. I remember getting a VHS tape with the old 60's Marvel Super-Heroes serialized cartoon on it, was campy as hell but it's remained my bedrock for my love of Cap since it adapts a lot of his Tales Of Suspense WWII adventures pretty well
Another excellent production. Thank you.
I was one of the 12 people who watched your live stream when you talked about this! ^_^
Hey scott great video👍
One of the most important things to prepare for this future is promoting virtue, and ensuring those who receive this kind of upgrade have virtue. This is what truly made Captain America a hero rather than a villain.
Awesome job bro
we should get the dude you were on call with post-soldier serum and that russian guy who made iron man tech in his garage and make em fight
We Must Try It In Future
This episode gave me chills bc I had a project which looked at crisper and have been interested in this subject for awhile now
I got to say I love this channel I always come back to it
very good video. very interesting topic with lots of interesting research
Hey Scott, it’s good seeing the Sync back! Any word on the podcast coming back from the dead?
Another Fantastic video!
Great video -keep up the good work!
I remember writing an assignment for my Neuroscience MSc on human enhancement and it scared me to the bone! Especially, according to some papers, the prevalence of certain substances which are taken in American colleges for this purpose (apparently not as prevalent here in the UK thankfully).
A good commentary on this is the Deus Ex franchise - especially Human Revolution and Mankind Divided (saw a great comment on classism).
Nice job Scott! And yes I can already say this because im a patreon boy and have seen most of it haha. Amazing video!
Ben Stone ok ok ok just because I can’t afford to be a patroon doesn’t mean I am not a true fan who is able to enjoy this just as much as you
Rhett M I do apologize. I meant it as I just already see most of it. Sorry if I offended you.
Ben Stone
I saw it too 😛
Ben Stone I thought you were wearing it as a badge of honor and like you were a “true fan” even though I thought you were some kid who got his mom to pay for it my bad
Rhett M nah. Just said I already saw it. Nobody is a "true fan". Everyone is just a fan. All equal
I love it. Leading into your point on his brain I got an ad.
"...which leads to..." "VERIZON!"
Great Scott! See what I did there? 😉 I love these long form videos where you get really in depth with the subject matter. I absolutely admire your dedication and research and each one of these gets better and more exciting. I don't mind waiting for a little while to get an awesome video. I'll always love this channel!
Damn, your videos are so good!
The mix of a primarily video essay style and throw ins of your beautiful face is so amazing!!
So Scott, I was rewatching your How Marvel Ruined Wonder Woman video and you mentioned 2 other Wonder Woman video's that never got made, what happened? Did you scrap them? Or are you still going to do them? Great job on the video btw
chills man
I got chills
great job.
Damn 5 yrs later, and this is still a showcase of amazing videography.
This is one of your best videos.
