Thank you for watching! :) 
Кино
well? tell me! what did you watch?!
The Bicycle Thief: 3/5
The Lavender Hill Mob: 5/5
Lisa Frankenstein: 5/5
Madame Web: Fuck this movie/5
Blow out with John Travolta :D
Probably the best thing I watched was Insomnia by Christopher Nolan. Finally finished both his and David Fincher’s filmographies with Panic Room.
Also would recommend Martin Scorsese’s The Last Waltz, a film about the final concert of The Band. Brilliant.
i also watched the creator i really really enjoyed it !!
Recently Cure by kiyoshi kurosawa and dune 2 both great movies
Day 200 of asking for you to Kindly put timestamps on your videos
He does , just a few days after the fact . Can’t blame the guy , it benefits him to have people watch all the way through , rather than skimming through
@@georgekitis9913I mean ppl can still just skip thru still?
@@phoneyboi6644 yes they can skip around , it’s just with exact timestamps it becomes effortless to do so , which can undermine a video ( this doesn’t really apply to these what I watched in said month , I m talking in general ) . This is something a lot of creators do , creating timestamps after the fact ( either due to time constraints or in hopes of longer watch time on average )
😂😂😂
No
Finally he’s on severance. Probably the best show to come out in recent years.
Yes
If you liked the first 3 episodes of severance wait until you finish. Oh boy what a show. Probably the best show in the past 5 years
Yeah same. My favorite of the last decade
AGREED
I felt the final string of episodes were dragged out far too long, but i really love the rest of it
Any other shows you've watched recently that have the same vibe? I absolutely need more severance, so might as well try something somewhat similar (even if it's not as good)
can't wait for more
Severance is one of my most favourite things in a while. It constantly reminds me that yes, tv can be this good
The tale of the fox must’ve been a huge influence on Wes Anderson, and the fantastic Mr. Fox, I mean it’s uncanny
Right there’s no way Wes Anderson didn’t get influence from it
not a day goes by without another fantastic mr fox nod
Dude, I started watching Severance just a month ago and its one of my favorites shows ever. Im upset that I came to the party late but kinda happy too at the same time because I didn’t have to wait as long as the others did for the second season.
ooo i'm excited to hear your thoughts on severance when you finish it! this show got me to start writing again, which is doesn't happen often. the set/costume design is some of my favorite.
what are you writing?
@@M_k-zi3tn words
@@M_k-zi3tn essays! :]
Bruh you are in for it with Severance. Can’t wait to hear you talk about the season, truly the best show nobody is watching
So surprised you're only starting Severance now, but I know you'll love it. S2 can't come soon enough!
Severance is absolutely incredible. I am eagerly awaiting the second season.
so glad you're watching Severance, such an underrated show. same with The Leftovers that someone else mentioned
Severance is top tier Television Leftovers is garbage you literally couldn't have picked more perfect polar opposites
@@ashleybanks-wm4cgLol Severance dosen't holds a candle to The Leftovers.
@@ashleybanks-wm4cg i feel sorry for your taste in TV.
@@akhilnair1137 I got two likes you got one I feel sorry for uuuuu
@@ashleybanks-wm4cg I feel sorry for their tastes too. And I also feel sorry that you need other people to validate your opinions.
SEVERANCE!!!!
The whole season is great, but the last couple episodes are sincerely amazing. Can't wait to hear you talk about it.
Severance has the best season finale I’ve ever seen
OMG Severance love! Literally one of the most underrated shows ever, you’re not ready for the finale.👀
Oh man you are going to love the rest of Severance if you're already hooked after 3 episodes. Get ready for one of TVs all-time season finale's. Cannot wait for season 2.
Karsten you’ve really got to try the leftovers
YES. One of the best most overlooked shows of all time.
THIS
Yes!
Absolutely
- Karsten's roommate trying to talk him out of buying food delivery and eating leftovers in the fridge instead
Ever since you talked about “monkey Mondays” I was excited/concerned about you watching the planet of the ape movies because I’m a huge fan of all the movies. I actually got a group of my friends together to watch them with me and we started a drinking game where if we accidentally called the apes “monkey” you’d have to drink because “monkey” is normally used as a derogatory way to refer to the apes in-universe.
I'm so glad you started watching Severance, I love that show immensely.
Severance is the best new show out there. It’s brilliant from start to finish.
I’m so ridiculously hyped that you’re finally watching Severance. It’s so unbelievably good.
Severance is gonna change your life lmao, the past 2 years of waiting for the second season have been absolute hell
NGL I may have screamed for joy a little when you mentioned you're from Minnesota. Keep up the great work!
Severance is awesome! Absolutely cannot wait for the next season.
Can’t wait to hear your thoughts on severance, such a great show, cannot wait for season 2
Oh okay, it’s finally March
Finaaaaally you watched Severance!! Such an underrated show, you're going to love the ending
Omgggg yes finally severance
DEAR GOD KARSTEN, you gave me a jump scare when you said you only just started watching Severance. You must finish it immediately - I PROMISE you will love it! One of the best shows I've ever seen. I was screaming at the TV (in the best possible way) throughout the finale. And please please please do an in-depth video review!
You will love severance, I’m very jealous of you being able to experience it for the first time. That is a spectacular season of television
Severance is amazing! looking forward to season 2
Severance is so underrated, it’s amazing. Shogun has also actually been quite good in my opinion, better than I expected.
Thank you for the doc reviews those look absolutely fantastic
Robot Dreams is so good. It won't win but it really deserves best animated feature.
yes SEVERANCE!!!!!!!!! I watched that show TWICE within about a week. had to make my whole family sit and watch it too,,,, especially to get to that ending. I cannot wait to see your full thoughts on it, three episodes is barely scratching the genius of that show!!!
I saw Malcolm X in Harkins Theatres and it is better than seeing it on TV.
Perfect Days is a masterpiece and Lady Snowblood is also a classic masterpiece.
i also watched so much last month! my favs were definitely lost river, upgrade, the living end, of an age and strange days!
i am SO excited to hear your severance thoughts. welcome to the club
Great to see you enjoyed Io Capitano! The movie has not left my mind since I watched it a few weeks ago
I saw Jesse James on 35 with a Roger Deakins Q&A in Atlanta! Great to know its doing rounds in other cities. It needs to be seen more!
thanks G, you boutta rizz me up with all dat movie analysis
I love Severance! Couldn’t be more excited for the second season.
Karsten thank you for starting Severence. I started watching it a bit ago but only got about six episodes in and never got back to it but now you're pushed me to finish it to understand your next what I watched video. Also I just saw Dune: Part Two again, long live the fighters
Damn I thought today would be a square space sponser
sponsor bingo
I’ll probably fall over with shock when it’s not a Mubi sponsor
can't wait for severance s2
Severance is in my top 5 seasons of TV. it reminds me of Westworld S1. an incredible ride
severance is INCREDIBLE
Io Capitano was indeed incredible! On top of the message the photography and cinematography is just incredible knowing it was fully filmed outside and that the main actors weren't pro actor before so most of the scene were part improvised! (I watched a couple of the director I found on yt after it haha)
I went to a double feature for dune ( i didn't see the first one in cinema) and it was amazing. It didn't emotionally connect with me that much, but the look and story made up for it. A true epic.
I just finished Severance this month and holy crap I cannot get it out of my head
hope your surgery went well!
Perfect Days: perfect film
Wow, I'm glad I found your channel! 👏🏼
Definitely dont sleep on Robot Dreams! Would love to hear what you think
UGH so happy you're watching severance! pls share your opinion on it when you're done watching 🫶
Yasssss! You'll probably be making a Severance video by the end of season. 1. It's such a bizarre world.
Man that original pota is amazing. Remember watching it with my dad as a kid
Unbreakable (2000). Just watch it. It is time.
SEVERANCE IS AMAZING
Severance is incredible, one of my favorite shows!
thanks for ur vid karsten
SEVERANCE IS SO GOOD
"On that note, I also started...Severance."
AND THE CROWD GOES WILD 🎉🎉🎉
Came back to say that Karsten has the clearest understanding of Perfect Days yet. Most critics seem to focus on the beauty in the mundane, but the film also have a grit to it. To me, it perfectly captured that state of contentment in being lost.
As someone who have felt that their life is unexplainably hollow, while also live in their own comfort bubble, Takuma's character spoke to me deeply. Yes he finds happiness in the little moments, but there's also a lingering of something more that is missing.
Perfect Days is incredible, you explained its qualities very well. Please go watch this movie everyone
Oh damn thanks for reminding me about Severance, I forgot to finish it
Great video! What's up with your knee? What's the recovery time? Get well, man.
Yes! I am forever on the Severance hype train! There’s a free e book that expands the world a bit
Well time to add 20 more movies to my list again
5:54 Tunisia mentioned lessgoooo
Thank you for helping me save time on what to watch from the Oscar list
What I watched/been watching:
Bringing Up Baby-really enjoyed this
All of Us Strangers-felt empty inside after watching
OZ (1992) - loosely based off the Wizard of OZ with sci-fi elements
A Sign of Affection-a silent voice but less depressing
The Dangers in My Heart - romance is cute
Rose of Versailles - almost done with this
More severance love is NEEDED
favorite time of the month
It’s so funny I was about to watch the tale of the fox but I couldn’t find a link with subtitles 😂
FINALLY someone acknowledges Severance.
severance is 👌
I started the month with Blackberry. I really liked it. It kinda felt to me like it was trying to be The Social Network, but that's not a bad thing as that movie is also great.
Next I watched Madame Web
Next, I watched The Holdovers. It was very enjoyable. Can't say it was one of my personal favorites of the year, but I don't really have complaints either. Not really for me, but still a good movie.
Lastly, I started watching Megamind 2 but gave up about 25 minutes in. Very much a low budget tv pilot made exclusively for children. Don't waste your time on it
i finished Megamind 2. Never been a fan of deleting movies from streaming services for tax purposes but in that movie’s case I will make an exception
Oh my gosh Severance is fantastic and Karsten is watching it!!! Are we gonna get a whole video on the show? Let bro cook!
Oh. It's been a whole month. Thanks Karsten.
And now karsten will wish he waited for season 2 of severance just like the rest of us
yooooooooooooooooo feb is over
Finally watched Poor things (the only option in my country is pirating rly..) and it's immediately one of my favorite films. Also watched 8 1/2 dollars, crazy Russian 90s film, very entertaining and feels the most like what living back there (and in the show business) felt like (i assume i wasnt there), kinda giving post-USSR pulp fiction
Finding out that he is from Minnesota was mind blowing ( I am also from MN)
would give anything for you to do a video on severance once you're done with it
thank GOD you started Severance geez Karsten finally
big fan of the consistently increasing runtimes on these videos, can we get to 30 minutes by the end of the year??
only sponsor I’ve ever gone and purchased in my (est.) 12 years watching RUclips!!! Long live mubi and karsten
In February I saw :
- May December (Liked it but didnt connect with it a whole lot and idk why)
- Theater Camp
- Godzilla vs. Kong
- Almost Famous
Poor Things (rewatch) - 5/5
Videodrome - 4/5
The Thing (with audio commentary) - 5/5
The Worst Man in London - 2.5/5
Past Lives - 4/5
Nimona - 3.5/5 (honestly it's a 3/5 for me, but I'll give it half-star for it to crawl out of cancellation hell)
The Holdovers - 4.5/5
The Iron Claw - 4/5
The Black Pharaoh, the Savage and the Princess - 3/5
Here's what I watched,
Killers of the Flower Moon (9/10) - _Martin Scorsese proves yet again why he's one the most prolific and influential filmmakers of all time. Its long and poignant and showcased some of the most gut wrenching scenes in all of film last year, paired up with nuanced performances from everyone really. Although I wished it showed more of Molly's pov alot more and what exactly did she saw in Ernest to fell in love with him and there were a few scenes that I found unintentionally hilarious which kind of broke my immersion. Ultimately, these are just a very few nitpicks from an otherwise great film._
The Royal Tenenbaums (10/10) - _For some reason I had this very strong urge to rewatch this movie and guess what? It's... amazing. Gene Hackman is so freaking good here, really wished we saw more of this type of performance from him. On that note, we NEED more writing collabs between Wes Anderson and Owen Wilson, it's been long overdue now. Don't get me wrong, I really enjoyed all of Wes' recent works but man there's this certain charm about his earlier works that makes me go back and watch them over and over._
The Marvels (7/10) - _Honestly? Not as bad as people are making it out to be. The whole switching thing was really entertaining and creative and the action scenes are pretty good. The movie also adds some much needed character to Captain Marvel and Iman Vellani's Ms Marvel is the best character in the movie no surprise there. It does have the usual generic revenge plot and the movie heavily relies on plot convience but aside from those obvious flaws the movie is pretty decent and definitely didn't deserved all the unnecessary hate it got._
Ms Marvel (7/10) - _Fun little teen comedy superhero series that didn't needed to be dragged out for 6 episodes with unnecessary backstories and overarching exposition. The family dynamic was easily the best part and the show should've sticked to that more._
And that's it. I'm currently watching Shōgun and so far it's great.
18:24 the person in what looks like a plastic chair with the goatee - that's my daughter's ti ti. They were also in A Very Harold & Kumar Christmas - saw the movie with them & another actor in the cast
Cool they showed up in your video
Omg Minnesota representation!!!!
Severance mention!!!
SEVERANCE YESSSS
I agree that Malcolm X needs to talked about way more than it is. If I were an American History teacher it would be required viewing in my class. Easily the greatest historical biopic I’ve ever seen and humanizes such an important figure in American history like no other film I’ve seen.
