Fun facto: Both these movies are directed by Damien Chazelle. He came up with La La Land first, but it was too ambitious of a pitch, so he made Whiplash, won an Oscar, which basically gave him all the credibility he needed to make La La Land
i know this comment was made 8 months ago but Damien Chazelle didn’t win best director for Whiplash, he won for La La Land. Whiplash won for best supporting actor (J.K. Simmons), best sound mixing and best editing. Birdman won best picture that year and it’s director (Alejandro González Iñárritu) won for directing.
@@thaPPle99 returning to the past. You're totally correct. I didn't mean to imply it was a Best Directing Oscar, but the academy distinction was, at least according to Chazelle, the driving factor that finally got him to make the scale of films he wanted to, thus La La Land was greenlit.
@@natemaster77 yeah, that makes perfect sense. i probably should have considered that you were probably referencing his nominations. Anyway, the man’s a promising talent and i can’t wait to see what he has in store for us in the future. thanks for responding.
It still amazes me how this video seemingly came out of nowhere, so short yet it encapsulated perfectly both movies. I watch this video probably each week and it brings me so much joy and makes me happy. Pure wholesomeness, you roll Dunkey
Dunkey is a very underrated movie reviewer. He chooses words carefully in every sentence, gives hint rather than clear elucidation of the film's intent. It gives you the feels and drives you to explore the film to yourself to understand what he means.
No no, his brother watched the film but dunkey is so good that he did a perfect video without any problem (sorry for bad english i'm italian... Yes i eat pizza and pasta)
Honestly, all they needed to do was give Mark Ruffalo a tray of fucking tacos. They showed him eating a lot in the diner scene earlier because his character is now permanently Hulk with Bruce's mind. Give the big green man more tacos, he can't make a time machine on an empty stomach.
The tragic tale of Dunkey surviving as an orphan on the streets of New Donk City struggling to get into various entertainment industries is a haunting reminder of the folly of dreams.
If anyone is wondering why he chose these two movies to talk about together, it's cause they were both directed by Damien Chazelle. They were actually his first two movies, and he became the youngest director to win an Oscar (for La La Land). He did First Man in 2018 and he's absolutely killing the game rn
After 3 years of this video being out. I always find myself coming back to it. Probably my favorite video, in which you can tell he actually took notes and payed attention for each of these films, and put what he learned right into the video. The goofy, funny, video game loving RUclipsr we all know and love, gives me goosebumps everytime when I reach the end of this video. Which is the LAST thing you would excpect from him. But he killed it. Knack 2 Baby
Dylan haha thags so funny Dylan ur so funny!! Get it because dunkey used to say “not even close baby” and now he made a new video not relating to that at all!! See it’s a funny joke! :)
Did you knos that the director of Whiplash, dosn't like the director of LaLaLand. Whiplash director's Damien Chazzel, said that Damien Chazzel director of LaLaLand copied his idea.
dusan susa he didn’t mention anything about the cinematography, music, acting. He just gave summary lol everyone who watches these movies can figure this stuff out about the characters.
Yo Dawgz Gaming I like the movies, but this is just a bad review because you have to like the movies to like the video, and even then it’s still not creative. Critics “critique” movies, they don’t just summarize them.
dusan susa yeah cool a lot of people did, but if critics just said “I liked this movie” then no one would care and that’s exactly what Dunkey did here, along with some summary which you could literally find by watching the movie or looking at the synopsis
This must be the third or forth comment I leave on this video. I come back here every once in a while, to laugh, to tear up at the end and to remind myself why I love dunkey so much. I 've fallen out of playing videogames over the past few years, but when that violin theme comes in and the video comes to an extatic climax I always get goosebumps.
This comment was so obviously gonna be commented by someone and is kind of a let down. I give this comment a 9.5/10 it has little something for everyone
It’s been almost 4 years and the ending of this video might just be one of the the best audiovisual moments I’ve ever experienced. I mean, the whole video is a strong contender for Dunkey’s magnum opus. I’ve rewatched this countless times and I still get chills at the ending cut. Thank you for being here, Dunkey, you and your unabashed, contagious passion for games, movies and just havin’ a good time. Bless you, man. All the best wishes to you and your loved ones from a HUGE long-time fan. :) o/

@Ozen the Lewdable A big part of Dunkey's humor already comes from the repetition and reappearance of previous jokes, so this is really just an extension of that..
It's insane that Dunkey can do an in-depth analysis of 2 movies in a single 4 minute video and cover more than most RUclipsrs would with a 3 part 1hr long review.
Dunkey, I’ve thought of a million things to say about my love for this video. “It’s a cinematic masterpiece”. “I get goosebumps every time”. “This is the best video on the platform”. “I fucking love you for this dunk”. “I’d like this a billion times if YT would let me”. These thoughts fly around my head, zipping past every time I open the comment section on this video. I’m not really one to comment, even rarer than that do I like, but I feel I gotta leave something to say under my favorite thing in quite possibly the whole internet. But even with that need, none of what I think feels good enough to post, I feel like I need to put the best comment of my career to express how much I like it. But fuck it. If I keep trying so hard, it’s never gonna get commented, better to try and fail than to never try at all right? So Jason, if you’re reading this, and by some miracle you actually are, please understand that I mean this from the bottom of my heart, when I say good shit man.
You can always tell a dunkey video is a good dunkey video by the nerves that slowly creep in as you start to worry that at any moment the video could end with dunkey saying "Rocket." Because he knew what he was doing all along, perfectly creating a video that was designed to capture the audience's attention and teach them something they didnt *rocket*
Oh God please don't bring up Bye Bye Man. Now I have to kill myself. Not because I said his name and don't want to accidentally tell someone, but because I remembered the movie 😑
Ofcourse he has. Lil Kirbs is merely an alter ego of Dunkey, when he is actually plugging in the controller and only wears an eyepatch, rather than a blindfold. Ofcourse it's still his little brother playing - the game couldn't handle 100% Dunkey.
Why is Dunkey able to switch back and forth between goofy nonsensical video game reviews and in depth philosophical movie criticism? *BECAUSE HE IS THE PRESIDENT OF THE GREAT UNITED STATES OF AMERICA* 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I watch this every month, and every month it astonishes me. Just phenomenal writing and editing by dunkey. The last 20 seconds fill me with so much emotion
The interesting thing that both of these films have together is not only are they a very realistic musicals, but they both have the same theme of following your dreams and achieving what you are always meant to be, but what you also have to give up in order to achieve it. In whiplash it's shown that neiman despite becoming one of the best drummers of all time was also losing his own humanity, and I think the ending is brilliant because you see it for the most part through the eyes of both and neiman and Fletcher, and it's a triumphant ending for them, but there is one shot that perfectly ties everything together, the dad's reaction. The look of utter horror and shock that his son has entered the event horizon of the inevitable downward spiral, how he basically lost his son. In the end he may be one of the greatest drummers ever, but there is a very likely chance he will end up like the other famous student Fletcher taught who killed himself. For La La Land, both characters finally got what they always wanted, Emma stone got to be an actress, and Ryan Gosling got to open up his own Jazz club, but they lost what they didn't realize they had, each other. In the end they had to go their separate ways and couldn't be together which is what the audience was hoping most from them. All 3 protagonists got what they wanted, but are they really happy in the end?
@@hobosorcerer My guess is that it's because Whiplash and La La Land are both directed by Damien Chazelle. I did the same thing last year: watched La La Land, loved it, and wanted to see what else the director filmed.
Thank you Dunkey, I literally just watched both of these movies back to back and was glued to the screen, the ending of whiplash was just inspirational and La La was sad asf but beautiful I give both A Dunkey / Dunkey 🏆
I love watching Dunkey play games. However, when he busts out the kubrick references and starts giving these passionate essays on film, that's when you know it's grown ups only time
Oh my god, this hack should review Grown Ups 2!!! That movie is a masterpiece and one of the greatest artistic visions from a director in cinema history!!
Best vid on RUclips seen this some many times he is just so good with transitioning and says so much with little words being spoken I finish the vid and watch again getting something new out of it every time and the way he puts everything together in the end is amazing bravo dunkey
dunkey, this is why i love you. your editing style and script writing are on another level when it comes to tha serious stuff. i can feel your attachments and feelings towards these movies beyond just your words

Ofcourse he has. Lil Kirbs is merely an alter ego of Dunkey, when he is actually plugging in the controller and only wears an eyepatch, rather than a blindfold. Ofcourse it's still his little brother playing - the game couldn't handle 100% Dunkey.

Videogamedunkey: *reviews two movies*
Movie-only reviewers: "Wait, that's illegal."
No it isn't. I don't want it to be illegal. Therefore it isn't.
They're from the same director and it shows
Anyone in particular call him out?

dunkeys best video fr
glad im not the only one who obsessively returns to this video... this is peak dunkey unironically
My favorite video on dunkey’s channel tbh
revisit it very commonly
Why is Dunkey able to switch back and forth between goofy nonsensical video game reviews and in depth philosophical movie criticism?
*BECAUSE HE IS THE PRESIDENT OF THE GREAT UNITED STATES OF AMERICA* 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Fooking magic
because Hollywood is nitpicking and biased. Dunkey wins, bye bye.
^^
^^^
Obviously it's because he has a little bit of something for everyone
The thing about Whiplash is it really makes you FEEL like La La Land
"It's has a little something for everyone."
And the reason is
*I AM THE PRESIDENT OF THE GREAT UNITED STATES OF AMERICA*
Now, the interesting thing about Space Jam is that it really makes you feel like a soda can
@Snabble You're welcome
smh this video still makes me tear up. one of the dunkmeister's most POWERFUL lines delivered at the end like a railgun bolt to the heart
facts my guy
I watch this every month, and every month it astonishes me. Just phenomenal writing and editing by dunkey. The last 20 seconds fill me with so much emotion
god i come back to this often just for the ending
ME TOO
The end really make you feel like Batman
Could that be or feel more batman
Same, I see this video like twice a week xd
“And it isn’t until the finale until you realize how carefully the pieces have been stacked up”
I half expected him to finish the video with, "but shrek 2 outdoes both of these. Best movie of all time."
DACRUMB Knack II babyyy
Love him out hate him, he's spitting straight facts.
But it could never beat SUPA MARIO 2! SU-SUPA-SUPA MARIO 2
Was waiting for SUPER MARIO BROS 2.
You say that as a joke but Shrek 2 is genuinely my favourite film of all time, before the age of memes even
The interesting thing that both of these films have together is not only are they a very realistic musicals, but they both have the same theme of following your dreams and achieving what you are always meant to be, but what you also have to give up in order to achieve it.
In whiplash it's shown that neiman despite becoming one of the best drummers of all time was also losing his own humanity, and I think the ending is brilliant because you see it for the most part through the eyes of both and neiman and Fletcher, and it's a triumphant ending for them, but there is one shot that perfectly ties everything together, the dad's reaction. The look of utter horror and shock that his son has entered the event horizon of the inevitable downward spiral, how he basically lost his son. In the end he may be one of the greatest drummers ever, but there is a very likely chance he will end up like the other famous student Fletcher taught who killed himself.
For La La Land, both characters finally got what they always wanted, Emma stone got to be an actress, and Ryan Gosling got to open up his own Jazz club, but they lost what they didn't realize they had, each other. In the end they had to go their separate ways and couldn't be together which is what the audience was hoping most from them. All 3 protagonists got what they wanted, but are they really happy in the end?
damn.
This is the best Dunkey video. And I have watched A LOT of them
Ultimately I’m just happy you’re expressing yourself instead of just trying to please us, the audience.
Likewise, I just can't help but ask, though... why Whiplash?
@@hobosorcerer My guess is that it's because Whiplash and La La Land are both directed by Damien Chazelle. I did the same thing last year: watched La La Land, loved it, and wanted to see what else the director filmed.
@@hobosorcerer whiplash is way too good a movie to not be reviewed by dunkey tho
@@lunatic_3521 That's not what he said. But you are so far of that I feel like you are trolling and I don't know if I even should reply.
Yess
“I like movies because they are fun to me” -Donky the movie critic
And the reason is,
*BECAUSE I'M THE PRESIDENT OF THE GREAT UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!*
Dunkey feel free to do more videos like this. Seeing this a year later reminds me how good it is
Thank you Dunkey, I literally just watched both of these movies back to back and was glued to the screen, the ending of whiplash was just inspirational and La La was sad asf but beautiful
I give both
A Dunkey / Dunkey 🏆
LaLa land would have been more realistic if 2/3rds of the movie was traffic
This comment is what inspired Tarantino to make Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
LilSmonkie this is the single best comment I have ever seen. I recently watched the movie and I just, wanted, to, die.
Why do you think so much time passed in the movie?
And it still would've been better than Twilight
@@Adino1 😂😂😂😂
I love watching Dunkey play games. However, when he busts out the kubrick references and starts giving these passionate essays on film, that's when you know it's grown ups only time
Ok boomer
@@lunatic_3521 if you play as an adult in your game you can watch this.
Oh my god, this hack should review Grown Ups 2!!! That movie is a masterpiece and one of the greatest artistic visions from a director in cinema history!!
Excuse my ignorance, but what's the Kubrick reference?
@@GDNachoo Do you know what boomer means?
Loving Dunkey's movie reviews. I could watch a whole play-list of these!
I wish dunkey made more movie review essays. This is one of my favourite videos from dunkey actually!
La La Land really makes you feel like whiplash
@mt I know right
Pretty damn good review for being blindfolded while watching the movies.
No replies??, damn guess I'll be the first then
He's not even watching the movies, it's his little brother watching and he STILL gives better movie reviews than you jokers!
Charles Hart also his tv isn’t even plugged in
C'mon it was his little brother watching it
Holy crap!! I laughed so load!!! xD
I love these type of dunkey videos. Everything about them are amazing
This is my favorite Dunkey video, I just love someone passionately talking about great movies!
This movie really makes you feel like La La Land
Dude 😂
This joke really makes you feel like Dunkey when he said he feels like he's seeing the same thing over and over again.
This comment really makes me feel like killing myself.
I don't think this or any other version of this joke will stop being funny to me.
Tom Coughlan it has a little something for everyone
Movie Video Essay Channel: *makes 20 minute videos about a single scene*
Dunkey: *makes a 4 minute video about 2 movies*
Somehow it was just as, perhaps more, informative, accurate, and entertaining.
@@QRyan707 that's the power of dunkey
Video essays were cool but now there's too many of them.
Yeah... I want more
And you feel that Dunkey tells you more about those films in less time.
I have heard probably thousands reviews of movies and yet I still come back to this one brimming with heart :) a great one dunkey!
Best vid on RUclips seen this some many times he is just so good with transitioning and says so much with little words being spoken I finish the vid and watch again getting something new out of it every time and the way he puts everything together in the end is amazing bravo dunkey
"If you havent notice, this guy kinda angry"
Of course dunkey, of course
he looked perfectly calm tho
i mean, peter lied about being friends with spiderman so of course he'd be angry
Someone beat you in bowsers big bean burrito, get your record back
doesn't count he didn't have a blindfold on hands tied behind his back while his little brothers dog did the level
Nah, that was just his little brother's alt account. He still has the record.
And this video is why dunks videos have changed my life
dunkey, this is why i love you. your editing style and script writing are on another level when it comes to tha serious stuff. i can feel your attachments and feelings towards these movies beyond just your words
