Youtube: The Thread

I'm not really into anime, but I like Bennett's reviews. He's very knowledgeable of the genre, to the point where some of it tends to go over my head. And after a while I tend to lose track of the weird character names. But he's always funny. And this review where he goes overboard reviewing one of the most MANLY anime ever made is absolutely hysterical.

A funky Russian dance where it's designed to look like they are floating/or on rails.

It's really quite trippy.

Angry Video Game Nerd can be pretty hit or miss.  In honesty, I probably hate more episodes than I like.  But his newest episode, about the urban legend video game Polybius, was pretty cool.  I thought it was going to be a typical review, but it turns into this really fascinating psychological thriller.  It may be one of his best videos yet.

I had never heard of the Polybius legend before, and it was pretty cool to learn about it.

I've been watching a bunch of Cinemasacre videos lately especially the horror movie reviews they posted in OCtober on their offical youtube channel.  That Polybius one was really interesting and I can't say I've ever heard of the game before.  The urban legend almost has the makings of some weird sci-fi horror movie.

Finally, a new No Small Parts.  This guy does some great career retrospectives on character actors and recently released his look at one of my favourite actors Keith David that he promised back in August.

The Cinema Snob reviews a Christmas movie so bad it doesn't even qualify as a "motion picture".
The expression on the girl's face at 12:07 is horrifying! OH MY GOD!

Do you guys remember about this time last year, when those "hot knife" videos were a big thing? 

The fad flamed out as quickly as it came.  Most of these were by one channel -- MrGear I think it was called.  He racked up a massive number of views in a very short time.  He'd have like a million views 15 hours after posting a video.  I even remember another dumbass clickbait channel making one of those endless listsicles about it.  It was called "Top 10 Hot Knife Videos".  8 out of the 10 entries were all from the same channel -- MrGear -- and the narrator kind of fumbled through the description because there wasn't much to say.

So apparently Google is going to be blocking YouTube on Amazon branded products like FireTV and Echo Show.

This is just petty and stupid. I would expect them to back off once the big backlash comes.

This looks like something Barry Mahon would make

God Damn it At least his other movies were technically movies. I get the impression he was going for stop motion, but was too lazy to do the motion part. Every frame of this movie looks like someone's last known photo.

Pretty sweet video using a super slow motion camera to show how TVs work.  They get slow enough to show the scan line on a crt tv sweep from left to right across a screen.

So someone found that HP Lovecraft's Nemesis has the same meter as Billy Joel's Piano Man...
