if it needed to cover western civilization as a whole, we'd also cover the inequality, elites doubled their worth in the last few years while most average people have fallen behind, we would cover the number of lying democrats as we found out just how much they lied to smear trump and how much they are lying to cover up their involvement and motivations to continue the conflict in Ukraine, we could also cover the crazy women ruining gyms recording their butts while calling men in these public gyms creeps, and then there is the disgusting degeneracy of only fans and twitch thots, the crypto influencer scumbags scamming their own fans endlessly, and the endless stories of women chasing bad boys only to get pumped and dumped. and most men are checking out of this trash.

I’m starting to think that their term “toxic masculinity“ is redundant in their eyes. I believe they’d like the term masculinity to be seen as toxic on its own.
While all the strong, powerful, sociopaths... I mean, women they push possesses every "toxic" and "masculine" trait they claim to hate. What gets me is that a man who knows more about something trying to help a woman is him talking down to her. But these women dismiss everything before even listening because they know better and proceed to lecture or insult any man they come across. The movie or show has to stop for some insane rant. That female Loki, who was the worst part of that show, is the most recent instance of "what is she on about" and there were cheers when we finally saw her die.
"The phrase emphasises the worst aspects of stereotypically masculine attributes. Toxic masculinity is represented by qualities such as violence, dominance, emotional illiteracy, sexual entitlement, and hostility to femininity." Nobody cares if you're masculine or not. Just don't be a dick.

You don't realize that all of this "woke" (Marxist) propaganda is nothing more than reverse psychology to push people towards Conservativism as a means to "save society" and Make America Great Again. Another McCarthy era is coming once DJT is reinstalled in the White House. Social Justice Activists in these corporations are going to be labeled as Communist subverters, and certain groups of people (such as homosexuals) are going to be labeled as "subhuman" and unworthy of living. Basically, the US is going to become Germany 2.0 in the near future. Hegelian Dialectic: Problem, Reaction, Solution Problem: Liberals are ruining our history, creating division, promoting immorality and are destroying the economy. Reaction: We need a leader, and laws, to protect us from what the Liberals are doing to destroy this country and the West as they try to turn it into a Communist society. Solution: Remove Liberals from positions of power, authority and influence with the support of the population majority. Drain the swamp, reset things back to the way they were by any measures necessary. Unfortunately for MAGA People, this "victory" will be very short lived as it will give Russia the opportunity to once again save the World from Fascist regime. The US will be destroyed as a superpower and be reduced to a mostly smoldering radioactive wasteland. What remains will be divided by Russia, Japan and China, the latter two owning $1.1 Trillion and $859 Billion of the US debt respectively. Russia will invade from the Northeast, China and Japan from the West Coast.
It's important to remember that the opposite of love is not hate but apathy. Apathy is why these films and shows are not making money. The audience just can't care enough to get angry anymore.
Execs just seem to sit around a table and say “hey, remember those 250 movies that pointlessly gender swapped, had to have token LGBTQ characters in, had to have token black characters in and/or pushed a characters “identity” before their, well character?” Other execs: “yes” Exec: “you know how they all flopped miserably?” Other execs: “yes” Exec: “well 251st time’s the charm muthafukas.”
For anyone that wants a list of movies that were good this year: Godzilla, Sisu, The Holdovers, Dream Scenario, Talk to Me, Oppenheimer, Gran Turismo, Super Mario Bros, Suzume (which got a US release in '23), The Whale, and Tetris are just a few that I watched this year that I did enjoy. The Holdovers is the one I'd highly recommend if you can only watch one. It's like you gotta search for good movies when you used to be able to find them very easily, but good stuff is still being made. Mostly by A24.
Your use of the many "les" words at #32 had me rolling lol... That made this video worth sitting through RUclipss 5 back to back ads, totalling over a minute, making RUclips only slightly less intrusive than cable television.
It will still take years until we will see a shift in Hollywood. Even if they now decided to make better movies, it would take at least two years until we would see that in the cinema
What's not surprising is that Hollywood produced 50 pieces of schlock - but that they were all so expensive, pretentious and preachy. That's why these projects have no value, not even as easy entertainment or camp. It's like watching a Chuck Norris movie but with 200 million dollars worth of colorful CGI and a diverse sidekick who wins all the battles for him and schools him on his patriarchal views. There has got to be a better way
I only watched one film in 2023, it was Beau Is Afraid (2023) it was a masterpiece but I'm not watching anything else current, nothing will amount to the greatness of that movie.
Godzilla minus one is fantastic. Sooooo refreshing to watch a movie with no woke agenda, with an actual story and characters to care about. And all done for 15mill$.
Meanwhile Godzilla Minus One is killing it at the box office. That movie had a budget of 15 million and is probably one of the best movies I've seen in a long time. I'm pretty sure bad movies lately is a western, American, Hollywood problem.
Godzilla reportably made 50 million at the box office which is less than shin godzilla. It made money due to a surprisingly low budget (which shin had even lower somehow).

This excellent summary is Exhibit A, that we have now, actually, finally reached peek woke in cinema & the small screen. Sure, they might continue to churn out more of this dross, but the curve has definitely cratered.
I watched Willow (and I remember it was in 2022) and I found it ok. What bothered me the most was Elora struggling to use magic before suddenly managing to make a tree grow instead of just a plant, which would be more realistic.
One that animatedly hate is what they did to Davros He was evil and wanted nothing but to have his people the kaleds to be the master race of existence Universe once but evolved to existence

The Holdovers is the one I'd highly recommend if you can only watch one.

Sound of Freedom, Guy Ritchie's The Covenant & The Equalizer 3. Everything else I saw that was even tolerable was still over indulgent tripe that squandered any potentially resonant enthrallment by just being tedious and too pleased with its superfluously histrionic doldrums to bother editing down to something pointedly sharp.
I am highly confused, which is it? Do we want to escape into a world that is mind numbing or do we simply not want to be lectured? Because I feel that there is no winning anymore within the entertainment industry. Yes I do agree that the writing has definitely been sub par - to put it lightly, so how can Hollywood turn this ship around? Great stories always seem to ask the individual a deep moralistic question artistically crafted within the story. It is evident that is missing. However when I hear people say "stop lecturing me, I just want to be entertained" I feel that then leads to the mind numbing theme park movies Scorsese was talking about, yes people care for these characters because either they are fans of their source material, but also because they were well crafted/written characters. Nowadays the characters identity is their defining characteristics which is such a shame. I say bring back the skilled writers because these activists don't know how to write compelling stories and characters without addressing their own agendas as the be all end all. Therefore sacrificing both the story and the character.
Incredibly simple. Stop giving jobs to people for quota reasons. Script writing is the toughest artistic job to do right, and the easiest to pretend to do. So it is currently occupied by people who's only quality is their social disability. Healing won't be immediate, because you will need smart and talented people to believe that they would be able to contend on the job market without having 50 shades of genetic parentage or sexual attraction to fat vegan lizards. But it will happen in a generation.
a lot of people are watching movies nowadays because they are looking for something they consider "woke" so that they can be angry about it and you can't win with people like that. no matter what you do or how hard you try, these people will always find something that is "woke" and complain about it because that is what they want.
I think you hit on something that makes a big difference - the writers are often writing lectures on issues they are concerned about in real life. Not issues it makes sense for characters to be worried about in their world. And they tell, and rarely show. You don't feel like you're watching an exploration of an issue that exists in that world but also happens to relate to the real world. You feel like the writers hijacked the script to shout at you about their childhood trauma. There's a little room for writing an issue into a movie or show that is really only an issue in the real world. But only a little.
@@rachelclark6393 I Like what you said about how these writers hijack the characters to address their own "real world issues". Which I feel then hampers both the story and the character. However I fear that this will only lead them to double down on addressing these issues as that's all they care about. These writers are incapable of creating their own original story/content, as that will require talent to engage and interest an audience. Therefore they will continue to hijack already well-known IP's with a baked in audience to lecture towards. They clearly don't like the audience and take great pleasure in ruining their once beloved IP - which is very despicable. I am however not against talented writers crafting an interesting story which will address "real world issues", in their own original story. Nevertheless we know these big studios won't take such huge risks on original content because all they care about is turning a profit and ESG scores. If 2023 hasn't proven how abysmal the box office performances have been, I guess nothing will change. I am just a simple man asking for good storytelling, how difficult can it be? It seems with the current climate - the answer is very difficult.
I actually enjoyed blue beetle. It even made me cry. The only annoying thing was the race jabs. They were unnecessary and made me gag a couple of times.
Even if there was a lot of bad stuff this year, there were still some great films that came out. Oppenheimer, Barbie, Across the Spiderverse, Guardians Of The Galaxy vol 3, and Transformers: Rise of the Beasts.
I don't think I even watched a single new release in 2023. If you are going to worship idols you'd think they'd at least be tempting offer a something seductive but now of this shit even made me feel good to be bad.
Watching people on RUclips make fun of films is far more enjoyable than actually watching 95% of films this year. Pitch Meetings at least got a lot of material.
If I have learned anything over the years, it's that if movies, comic books or video games ever let you down and are having a rough time, go find some great music. Lots of good releases this year.

Another McCarthy era is coming once DJT is reinstalled in the White House. Social Justice Activists in these corporations are going to be labeled as Communist subverters, and certain groups of people (such as homosexuals) are going to be labeled as "subhuman" and unworthy of living.
Basically, the US is going to become Germany 2.0 in the near future.
Hegelian Dialectic: Problem, Reaction, Solution
Problem: Liberals are ruining our history, creating division, promoting immorality and are destroying the economy.
Reaction: We need a leader, and laws, to protect us from what the Liberals are doing to destroy this country and the West as they try to turn it into a Communist society.
Solution: Remove Liberals from positions of power, authority and influence with the support of the population majority. Drain the swamp, reset things back to the way they were by any measures necessary.
Unfortunately for MAGA People, this "victory" will be very short lived as it will give Russia the opportunity to once again save the World from Fascist regime. The US will be destroyed as a superpower and be reduced to a mostly smoldering radioactive wasteland. What remains will be divided by Russia, Japan and China, the latter two owning $1.1 Trillion and $859 Billion of the US debt respectively. Russia will invade from the Northeast, China and Japan from the West Coast.
Michael Keaton as batman and Harrison ford as Indiana jones sounds great……..in 1989
I love good entertainment. With that said, I watched 0% of these. I know what trash smells like.
We also had John Wick 4, FNAF, Godzilla and One Piece so it wasn't all bad... just 99% bad
It's important to remember that the opposite of love is not hate but apathy. Apathy is why these films and shows are not making money. The audience just can't care enough to get angry anymore.
The trash talk is priceless!
Wonderful stuff Echo ty.
Execs just seem to sit around a table and say “hey, remember those 250 movies that pointlessly gender swapped, had to have token LGBTQ characters in, had to have token black characters in and/or pushed a characters “identity” before their, well character?”
Other execs: “yes”
Exec: “you know how they all flopped miserably?”
Other execs: “yes”
Exec: “well 251st time’s the charm muthafukas.”
CONGRATULATIONS YOUR ALL FIRED!! NOW GET OUT!!
One can only hope that Disney+ gets shutdown next year. If that's what it takes to force them to stop shovelling crap at us then I say bring it on.
If you thought 2023 was bad, 2024 is here and says, “Hold my beer.” 🍺
2:38 "multiple kangs in the stadium"😂😂😂
For anyone that wants a list of movies that were good this year: Godzilla, Sisu, The Holdovers, Dream Scenario, Talk to Me, Oppenheimer, Gran Turismo, Super Mario Bros, Suzume (which got a US release in '23), The Whale, and Tetris are just a few that I watched this year that I did enjoy.
The Holdovers is the one I'd highly recommend if you can only watch one. It's like you gotta search for good movies when you used to be able to find them very easily, but good stuff is still being made. Mostly by A24.
Don’t forget Across the Spider verse, Teenage mutant ninja turtles mutant mayhem, and Thanksgiving 👌🏽
I'd also add Sound of Freedom to the list. A tough watch, to be sure, but really good.
feel like I've seen the entire film from 1 Dream Scenario trailer... still worth the watch ?
@@batmanvsuperman_ Yeah, I think so. I see what ya mean though. It's not A24's best, but seeing Nic Cage do his thing is always a pleasure.
@@AshCosgrove is there any major plot development past "im in people's dreams"? I'm genuinely curious since i love Nic Cage
Wow. When you string it all together, 2023 was a red-letter year...of suck.
Your use of the many "les" words at #32 had me rolling lol...
That made this video worth sitting through RUclipss 5 back to back ads, totalling over a minute, making RUclips only slightly less intrusive than cable television.
Outstanding as usual. Thanks
Ending made me sad.
It will still take years until we will see a shift in Hollywood. Even if they now decided to make better movies, it would take at least two years until we would see that in the cinema
One of the best cinematic reviews I’ve seen all year-instant subscribe.
Thank you for illustrating the reason why I no longer go to the cinema and don't use streaming services.
What an entertaining video. I LOVE watching this woke crap get shat on! 👍
What's not surprising is that Hollywood produced 50 pieces of schlock - but that they were all so expensive, pretentious and preachy. That's why these projects have no value, not even as easy entertainment or camp. It's like watching a Chuck Norris movie but with 200 million dollars worth of colorful CGI and a diverse sidekick who wins all the battles for him and schools him on his patriarchal views. There has got to be a better way
Notice how the better films are not from the USA this year.
The sarcasm in this video is just amazing.
I only watched one film in 2023, it was Beau Is Afraid (2023) it was a masterpiece but I'm not watching anything else current, nothing will amount to the greatness of that movie.
Same. I watched only Oppenheimer. In the theatre. Worth every penny.
Godzilla minus one is fantastic. Sooooo refreshing to watch a movie with no woke agenda, with an actual story and characters to care about. And all done for 15mill$.
Meanwhile Godzilla Minus One is killing it at the box office. That movie had a budget of 15 million and is probably one of the best movies I've seen in a long time. I'm pretty sure bad movies lately is a western, American, Hollywood problem.
Godzilla reportably made 50 million at the box office which is less than shin godzilla.
It made money due to a surprisingly low budget (which shin had even lower somehow).
I still can’t believe a project was so bad that it got a 1% audience score. 1 FREAKING PERCENT!
This is hilarious. It's like a speed round of Hollywood roasting.
Scott Pilgrim is the pinnacle of “awkward teenage boy protagonist”. How is he “toxic”?
he's a straight male
@@luniz4209 straight white male
@@fajarkurniawan9434no it's because he dated and emotionally abused a 17 year old girl he treats his friends like shit he is lazy he is a pussy he doesn't take responsibility for his actions he is immature and selfish need any more
@@fajarkurniawan9434 straight white cisgender enabled male
Buddy I feel like you only watch the movie and if you haven't read the comics yet I recommend you read them it show why you people call him toxic(which he is)
This excellent summary is Exhibit A, that we have now, actually, finally reached peek woke in cinema & the small screen. Sure, they might continue to churn out more of this dross, but the curve has definitely cratered.
Just 50 doesn't do 2023 justice.
Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it.
I watched Willow (and I remember it was in 2022) and I found it ok. What bothered me the most was Elora struggling to use magic before suddenly managing to make a tree grow instead of just a plant, which would be more realistic.
One that animatedly hate is what they did to Davros
He was evil and wanted nothing but to have his people the kaleds to be the master race of existence
Universe once but evolved to existence
Sir you had my attention... and now you have my subscription 🙏
A half Asian Isaac Newton? Okay now that’s just insulting to the original man.
are there any decent movies from 2023 whatsoever?
Godzilla Minus One
heard mixed things about that, some loved it, others said it was the same rinse-repeat Godzilla@@mabusestestament

@@AshCosgrovemeh, those are all average imo, compared to the gold from the 2000s & 90s
Sound of Freedom, Guy Ritchie's The Covenant & The Equalizer 3.
Everything else I saw that was even tolerable was still over indulgent tripe that squandered any potentially resonant enthrallment by just being tedious and too pleased with its superfluously histrionic doldrums to bother editing down to something pointedly sharp.
I am highly confused, which is it? Do we want to escape into a world that is mind numbing or do we simply not want to be lectured? Because I feel that there is no winning anymore within the entertainment industry. Yes I do agree that the writing has definitely been sub par - to put it lightly, so how can Hollywood turn this ship around? Great stories always seem to ask the individual a deep moralistic question artistically crafted within the story. It is evident that is missing. However when I hear people say "stop lecturing me, I just want to be entertained" I feel that then leads to the mind numbing theme park movies Scorsese was talking about, yes people care for these characters because either they are fans of their source material, but also because they were well crafted/written characters. Nowadays the characters identity is their defining characteristics which is such a shame. I say bring back the skilled writers because these activists don't know how to write compelling stories and characters without addressing their own agendas as the be all end all. Therefore sacrificing both the story and the character.
Incredibly simple. Stop giving jobs to people for quota reasons. Script writing is the toughest artistic job to do right, and the easiest to pretend to do. So it is currently occupied by people who's only quality is their social disability.
Healing won't be immediate, because you will need smart and talented people to believe that they would be able to contend on the job market without having 50 shades of genetic parentage or sexual attraction to fat vegan lizards. But it will happen in a generation.
a lot of people are watching movies nowadays because they are looking for something they consider "woke" so that they can be angry about it and you can't win with people like that. no matter what you do or how hard you try, these people will always find something that is "woke" and complain about it because that is what they want.
Maybe they won't turn it around. Everything ends eventually.
I think you hit on something that makes a big difference - the writers are often writing lectures on issues they are concerned about in real life. Not issues it makes sense for characters to be worried about in their world. And they tell, and rarely show. You don't feel like you're watching an exploration of an issue that exists in that world but also happens to relate to the real world. You feel like the writers hijacked the script to shout at you about their childhood trauma.
There's a little room for writing an issue into a movie or show that is really only an issue in the real world. But only a little.
@@rachelclark6393 I Like what you said about how these writers hijack the characters to address their own "real world issues". Which I feel then hampers both the story and the character. However I fear that this will only lead them to double down on addressing these issues as that's all they care about.
These writers are incapable of creating their own original story/content, as that will require talent to engage and interest an audience. Therefore they will continue to hijack already well-known IP's with a baked in audience to lecture towards. They clearly don't like the audience and take great pleasure in ruining their once beloved IP - which is very despicable. I am however not against talented writers crafting an interesting story which will address "real world issues", in their own original story.
Nevertheless we know these big studios won't take such huge risks on original content because all they care about is turning a profit and ESG scores. If 2023 hasn't proven how abysmal the box office performances have been, I guess nothing will change.
I am just a simple man asking for good storytelling, how difficult can it be? It seems with the current climate - the answer is very difficult.
Amazing compilation, thank you.
God bless you and your work Echo,keep up the good work 👍👍👍💙💙💙
I actually enjoyed blue beetle. It even made me cry. The only annoying thing was the race jabs. They were unnecessary and made me gag a couple of times.
Even if there was a lot of bad stuff this year, there were still some great films that came out. Oppenheimer, Barbie, Across the Spiderverse, Guardians Of The Galaxy vol 3, and Transformers: Rise of the Beasts.
everyone forgets Transformers
"$110 per cinema" those numbers are LAUGHABLE 😂😂😂😂😂
Notice how the Super Mario Bros movie isn’t mentioned on here, that tells me that at least one film got it right this year.
2023. The year I stopped caring about anything new. Straight retro for me from here on out. I'm done. Tired of being burned.
I don't think I even watched a single new release in 2023. If you are going to worship idols you'd think they'd at least be tempting offer a something seductive but now of this shit even made me feel good to be bad.
Buy all the physical media you can before it vanishes forever.
Its indoctrination and mind control, not entertainment.🤐🍻
It doesn't only matter about gender, race, sexuality etc. The production-house digital aesthetics of all of this 'content' is really bland.
Congratulations on the brilliantly placed Fry & Laurie reference!
Congrats on picking it up.
Watching people on RUclips make fun of films is far more enjoyable than actually watching 95% of films this year. Pitch Meetings at least got a lot of material.
If I have learned anything over the years, it's that if movies, comic books or video games ever let you down and are having a rough time, go find some great music. Lots of good releases this year.
This year was so meh with music. Not as bad as the movies but still meh compared to last year
