When you said you would make a video on "don't look up" this is definitely not what I imagined. It's better then I imagined though.
Yes it's certainly his most creative review
This is such an interesting new series. I love how thought out this entire video was.
It's the closest this channel has gotten to a cooking channel and I'm all for it
I am being humble when I am telling you that I am the most powerful strongest coolest smartest most famous greatest funniest Y*uTub3r of all time! That's the reason I have multiple girlfriends and I show them off all the time! Bye bye mac
Seriously tho I want him to revive this series
This is now my favorite RUclips series of all time.
You should watch "explained with food" by doug doug. Its a very similar concept.
pro cooking tip: mushrooms are like little sponges. Rather than washing them in water, buy them whole and wipe them gently with a paper towel. This will help them get beautifully golden and avoid soggy shrooms. They're one of the easiest and fun things to slice so don't fear their wholeness.
They're basically impossible to overcook so you could also just cook them long enough for the water boil out and get the same result
There’s always a food analogy for a movie.
First video essay that made me crave Mac and cheese. Truly a masterpiece.
Me too!
"Be sure to eat mac and cheese and form your own opinion"
I think the "aimlessness" of this movie adds to the helplessness that you're supposed to feel at the main issue not being taken seriously. I personally liked the movie. Definitely not my favorite, but i saw the immediate connection to our current pandemic situation and it made me chuckle in a couple places and i noticed the reference to specific real life news events. (Ex the Greta Thunberg music concert charity thing)
It feels like a sinking boat to you maybe because this is how these situations feel in real life, the irl reaction to things like a pandemic and climate change IS just a bunch of ppl yelling at each other. I don't think this film was intending to make any sort of "change" in the world other than to parody life.
I agree, it’s not necessary about climate change but more about this time in our lives where the events turn into opinions and ideologies (of course in the film they use the absurd in-your-face comet, but covid is kinda in-your-face too, and you know how it worked out), the greed for profit precedes common sense.. in the end all the rich old people that escaped cannot survive in the wild, even if the planet is picture-perfect
I cringed when you put the mac and cheese on a regular baking tray. Just like how I cringed at parts of don’t look up. Brilliant stuff
You put my feelings about the movie into words so perfectly
I liked the movie, but I kind of agree with his points. I thought I was great, but it's far from perfect.
He says more with a mac and cheese metaphor than ign can say with a team of experts.
So because he can’t solve climate change, it isn’t good. Nice
@@aarongutierrez7705 Congrats, you missed the point of the video & the comment.
@@aarongutierrez7705 you sir, are grasping at straws
Random fact: There’s a village in Nebraska with a population of 1. She acts as mayor and also pays taxes to herself.
I’d believe it
Let's all move there.
I get paid to smoke weed on my RUclips channel 🙏 The pandemicc showed alot of people you can’t rely on a 9-5 💯
God this is perfect. This is exactly how I felt watching this movie, like it was just angry with no aim. Literally watched an hour then skipped to Timmy and laughed then ended LOL
so... u made an assumedly informed opinion on something without actually watching it lol
Maybe u should watch the movie
@@cinemasprite I feel like if you really can't stand a movie for the first hour... it's whatever at that point.
Same
I love this series. I think it would be cool if you did some older movies that you may have talked about in one of your ranking videos but didn’t have enough time to really go in depth.
This was such a creative film review, I absolutely love the tone and style, would love to see more!
Heavily disagree. As someone in the environmental movement since high school, it really highlights what the movement has been like for decades. We have been informing people for years that these issues were happening and the film does a great job of showing how rejection, denial, anxiety, depression, and apathy feel. Lots of people have gotten climate anxiety and depression years before the mental health issues were understood. Being able to show that experience and showing the other side where people don't take you seriously and/or are completely self-centered around the issue was spot on.
It also shows how capitalist solutions aren't going to work the way that they think they will (carbon capture).
Agreed! If people think Don’t Look Up isn’t an accurate representation of the frustration that scientists have felt for decades, and the toll on mental health that climate change issues cause for many people, then they clearly mustn’t be people experiencing the ramifications of climate change themselves.
I'm not exactly in the sphere but personally I felt extremely anxious directly from the start of the movie. The close up shots of Leo's hands clenching as he stuttered through his words to an uninterested president were genuinely stomach wrenching for me. Something else I loved, which was an extremely personal experience, was that I thought the whole "Don't Look Up" slogan was just metaphorical to not believe what the conspiracy theorists saw as left wing lies, so I found it hilarious when (to me) it was revealed that no, they just literally hadn't looked up this whole time! Furthermore, talk about subtly all you want but I think for a movie like this it made far more sense to hit the viewer over the head with its message just like the scientists tried to do
To be honest, everybody who I have seen praise this film are talking about the politics and not the movie itself, which (to me) shows its biggest flaw. Quoting Community "its all sizzle no steak"
From the title alone I was honestly hoping you’d throw in Knives Out since it’s such a fantastic movie but this series is going to be AMAZING I had no idea someone could be so clever with comparing food to a movie and have it work consistently all the way through! Plus now I want to try bread crumbs on top of my Mac and Cheese lol
I feel like this movie was made for me. I grew up being told that climate change is a hoax or fake or whatever... and now I'm just completely frustrated at my family and almost everyone I know for just refusing to look at the facts. So the movie expressed the exact feeling I have about the situation, plus it's extremely funny!
I loved it too, and I almost fully disagree with all of his complaints. More than a wake up call, it is a motivating call to do everything we can to fight together against climate change! It was also fun like you said haha!
You got me curious thought, who told you that climate change wasn’t real while growing up/what’s your story IF you wanna share!
@@malekhaddad1389 I think most of his complaints are valid, but just entirely subjective in a way that I can't agree with them. Also for me it isn't much of a wake up call, it's more of a vent for the way I feel about the situation. I mean, I know for a fact if my parents saw this movie their minds wouldn't budge. It wouldn't appeal to them at all, but it does a lot for me.
Yeah, so I grew up in a small, very conservative, Christian town. Need I say more?
Lol anyway, I never even heard of the concept until I was like 13 (I'm nearly 22 now). Every time I did hear about climate change it was treated like a given that it wasn't real. My mom would say that "It used to be global warming but now it's climate change because the science isn't real" and "in the '70's the earth was cooling, they can't make up their minds" and I would buy it. No one I knew ever said otherwise so I never had a reason to question it.
I heard it from my parents, the pastors in church, my youth leaders, my friends... my grade 10 science teacher even showed us "evidence" showing that climate science was wrong. (Looking back that data is very easily disproven)
Cut to September 2018 and I made a post on Reddit of some premature snow covering my car with the ironic caption "GLOBAL WARMING CONFIRMED" and I got some backlash for it. One of the comments said "Global warming confirmed, picture unrelated." I think it's funny now but at the time I was very surprised. I thought I was in the majority for not believing in climate change, because in my small bubble I was. In my eyes the few people who believed in climate change were just conspiracy theorists, similar to flat-earthers.
My small town mind was blown at the revelation that I was in the minority and it kind of just ate at me for like two years, over time just gradually learning more and more about it until I finally decided to do a deep dive. hbomberguy's video definitely helped with this. The time of letting the thoughts sink in and the sudden deep dive were what helped me out of the bad mindset, and I started pressing my parents and friends on the issue, realizing that any arguments against it completely crumble with any amount of criticism.
And right at the peak of all this; BOOM! Covid hits. Suddenly I'm watching my parents fall into all the conspiracies and lies, and I realize that I just can't trust my parents on a whole lot, especially when it relates to science. Over the course of covid to this point I've gone from a small town conservative to a big city Leftist. I moved away from that small town and left the bubble I was stuck in and I feel better for it.
For the record, I'm still on good terms with my family, probably better actually since being away from them leads to a lot less arguing. Phone calls tend to be more mild mannered :)
Sorry for giving you my whole life story... you did ask for it lol. It felt kinda good to write this all down tbh, thanks for the therapy sesh :)
If there’s one word to describe Don’t Look Up, it’s bloated. This movie is two hours long and you *feel* those two hours. After the moment when the President calls off the warheads, the movie then just drags.
I can’t stop laughing at the chaotic cooking happening in the background 🤣
This kind of reminds me of what DougDoug used to do, but more in depth! Love this format!
As I much as I quite enjoyed don’t look up, I understand all the points you made in this video. I definitely think the run time was a little on the long side, but I completely see the connection to Dr strangelove which I hadn’t realized before.
Really knocked this one out of the park karsten, fantastic
Damn, this was such a great unique idea. Glad to see such innovation.
This is gonna be a great new series!
It has a lot of potential
Wow, I think that was a great take on Don't Look Up. I enjoyed the movie, and I still think I do but you managed to show all of your points in a clear, consistent, and entertaining way while using the gimmick to your advantage. Well done man!
I can’t wait for more from this series! I’d love to make the recipes and watch the movies you pair em with in the future!!
De Cecco is a good italian brand I often find myself buying it in Italy if the best ones aren't on sale. Great series btw. Love the mix of cuisine and cinema.
This review format scratches an itch in my brain. I cannot tell you how many times I’ve described a movie as “a good meal that just needs some salt”
Karsten, I respect you a lot and this is a good video idea. I would’ve preferred you tackle the ideas that don’t look up delves into-specifically the tabloidification (idk if that’s a word really) of American media amd politics, as well as the fact that a movie stands as a big fuck you to the capitalist framework, which is fairly unique for a movie with this kind of cast and reach. Rather, you focus on style and the actors, and your thoughts on the movie subject matter are all pretty vague and mixed in with this convoluted metaphor about Mac and cheese. There are legitimate criticisms of the movie, like the idea that the world wasn’t fleshed put enough and some of it was overly ridiculous, but it got the absurd nature of our current existence pretty spot on.
To put it frankly, film nerds hate this movie. Politics nerds generally seem to like it. And if this movie doesn’t work for you, that’s okay. But I feel that this review was a bit hollow, like a stale noodle in an unopened box of mac and cheese. I wish you engaged with the issues in the movie more rather than throwing vague platitudes at it and hyper focusing on the style over the substance.
Yeah, he also does something that I really hate and would only expect from a brain-dead conservative when he implies that Adam Mckay should do more for the cause, not just make an angry "preachy movie".He's a filmmaker he's making a film that tells people to take climate change more seriously or the result will be disastrous. That's literally the best he can do, he's not politician, he doesn't have serious power, and stuff like charity isn't gonna stop climate change (it isn't meant to, by the way, charity is basically a device for the upper class to make themselves look noble in the eyes of working-class people, while perpetuating the system that's destroying our lives and the planet we live one) so I don't know what he expects from Adam Mckay, sorry for the rant😮💨
I LOVE this. This is why I do food challenges like eating like a movie (though they are different) because food is not just “food” in movies. There are a form of symbolism or even explanation of a film, just like you’re doing here with quality. Cant wait to see more !!!
this is a unique way to look at movie. i loved every second of it, can't wait for episode 2 i suggest doing Green Knight or Last night in Soho because people have mixed reviews on them :)
this is such a creative idea to review movies, I can't wait to see more of this!!!
this is the greatest review I have ever seen. continue the series forever thank u
fascinating series, definitly works, excited to see what else you do with this format
Knife out has so much potencial. One of you top videos, no doubt!
Hope you continue this criative series. Good job!
Why do I love this hilariously sarcastic and witty new concept of a video
You’re on to something with this format and I’d love to see you do more bro. Keep it up.
One of my favorite things is when I want to talk about whether or not I enjoyed a movie
So I go to places to talk about whether or not I enjoyed a movie
And I'm expecting to see some conversations about whether or not people enjoyed a movie
And I get
"It addresses relevant issues"
"It may make you feel uncomfortable because it calls you out, but that doesn't mean it's a bad movie"
"It satirizes things we see in everyday life"
"It's incredibly timely and a message that needs to be heard"
And I think
"But... but do any of those things... mean it's a good movie? Or an enjoyable movie? At all?"
Don't Look Up is a magnet for these kinds of conversations. I don't know where this idea came from that the fact that you can write an essay about a movie makes it good.
(I actually think Don't Look Up is a decent turn your brain off movie.)
I hate that you could make a full channel off of this idea, and I'd still watch and love every single video that you make
Honestly I was fine with the anger of the film, anger is a very powerful emotion and can lead to some masterpieces. Honestly I thought it wasn't angry enough, if it went full Idiocracy I think it would've hit a lot harder, like, what if by the end you feel like the humans really deserve the comet hitting them? What if they get every chance to destroy it, but constantly fail to out of gross incompetence, greed and stupidity? Realistically, humans wouldn't be able to just solve the climate crisis, it would all be trial and error, and if we're at the 'six months' point, unless we get insanely lucky, things won't end well.
"I could attempt to say so many different things about this but for the sake of me not repeating what has probably already been said, I'll leave you all with a good ol classic: oh my god.
Mastapiece"
This is a very interesting idea I'd love to see more of these!
Been waiting for your Don’t Look Up review and this surpassed all my expectations.
i was cringing and thinking "no dont do that do it right" the whole time u were making the mac and cheese but then i realized thats exactly how i felt about dont look up. i love this new series!!!!!
This video is so clever! I would love this series.
This is amazing please never stop this format has insane potential
Not sure why exactly but getting some "How to With John Wilson" vibes here, love it!
I would like to see this series continue.
Love this. From now on I will only watch movie reviews if they are accompanied by attempts at making food that could be vaguely connected to that movie.
I love this new series it’s a very interesting way to review movies, you’ve just earned yourself a subscriber
Very clever Mr Runquist. I especially like the analogy to a sinking ship, because who was in a sinking ship? Of course it was Leonardo DiCaprio in Titanic.
I LOVE THIS!! Please do more of this series!!
I loved this! A combination of film discussion and food = wonderful!
Just want to give some honest criticism, I definitely enjoyed this video and would watch more like this, but one thing I would say is that you might want to either focus in on just comparing a film and recipe or limit the commentary of your process of cooking it to quick asides because it can be a little confusing to interpret which parts of the video are you making a statement on aspects of the movie or just commenting on your experience cooking the food. Keep up the good work!
I really enjoyed this style of videomaking. Looking forward to the next one.
I love this concept. Food and film. Very excited for this series
Really cool idea and cool video! Looking forward to the next installment
Pretty clever. Considering how often food analogies have been used to describe films, it makes sense for a film to be compared to a certain dish.
genius new series idea and am looking forward to future ones like it
“I barely cook so I don’t have any reasonable substitutes” lmfao this works so well in the context of the movie
I don’t usually comment on videos but this is one of the most creative and intriguing ways of presenting a video - can’t wait to see more of this series!
Great video, love that you have a smart toaster!
now i know how “dont look up” would be
if it was a pasta 👍👍
You learn something new every day
please continue this series…it’s so dope asf
this is such a creative and interesting idea. Can't wait for more
this is such a unique series and I’m 100% here for it
best video essay ive seen in a while!
Interesting way of getting your point across, I wasn't all for it at the start but the metaphors (which you thankfully made clear) made me understand what you were saying. I didn't watch it, majority of the shows you review I didn't really watch so at the start it seems like I need to have watched the movie to understand your review but I still got what you were saying. This is a creative and fun idea don't mind seeing more
This video format is utter genius
Karsten, PLEASE don’t end this series
This was one of the most creative thing I’ve ever seen on RUclips.
I can’t tell if you just conveniently were out of flour or if you planned that ahead of time. I kept scratching my head during this thinking, man this works really well, a little too well. Idk how you did it exactly but the illusion is def part of the fun.
I honestly wish there were more films like Don't Look Up and Dr Strangelove. Sometimes you just wanna laugh at the terrible absurdities in the world, and those films (Don't Look Up especially) bring me such catharsis
Love this new format, think it has great potential. this video was great
This was so well done, ly karsten
Nice idea for a series, hope you keep it going
love the concept, was physically pained by watching you cook. keep up the good work!
yooooo this is so good dude u should make more of these!
I found enjoyment because it’s nice for me to know that I’m right and my relatives are wrong. It’s very cynical of me but that’s how I feel
This video was so sick, please make more of these
Love this concept, and I agree with everything you say about the film! Will have to try the recipe to form my own opinion on it too hehe
This was a spectacular video. More please
LOL this is amazing. Don't Look Up was ridiculous and this describes it perfectly
I love this concept so much
This video was a great idea! Do more of these!
I’m going to love this new series
now this video is the opposite of don't look up, I kind of had a positive opinion of your channel when it showed up in my recommended I clicked, but this made me subscribe. loved it
Please do more of these this was fantastic
This format is brilliant!
Karsten you seriously amaze me thank you
This idea, this video, are masterpieces. Unironically. Holy shit Karsten
I love that Karsten wanted to start a series where he reviews movies and cooks but he doesn't know very much about cooking and doesn't cook a lot. It is both funny and seems like a good way to challenge yourself
I love the new format!!
i heard about this from the karstcast and im watching now. great idea karl
Now that this series exists, I am even more excited for the next Wes Anderson movie!
Creative series idea. Agree with everything in this video, as well.👍🏽
I like this new format, and also fully agree with this review. So good job I guess
Please make more of these chef Runquist
this video feels like my adhd... millions of thoughts conversing with one another while I'm hurrying up my cooking because I forgot to eat for the last three hours.
I love this concept for a video review
I would love to see more videos like this!!
Oh no! He's made one of those first person POV cooking TikToks. I can only imagine he had a camera strapped to his head while cooking.
