I just want to add onto this: Adam made a point of living in expensive as fuck Toronto because "muh movie career" and as far as I know he's still in Toronto paying through the fucking nose in rent (for a job he could work anywhere) and still no movie and not even a short film has been produced.
What's even funnier is, on the same day Adum posted his hit piece in the name of "critique" on TCD, Drinker posted a photo on Twitter from behind the scenes of the live action of his Ryan Drake novel series from, guess where.... Canada [A].
Or you go big brained and buy one of those self-sucker machines and use that as you work.
Maybe if he wasn't a gigantic lazy fuck who would rather prance around in a horse costume and get fucked by the smallest black cock alive than make videos he'd have the same results?
It definitely is a good movie although it might not be enjoyable to some people.
I listened to his clips videos as background noise until every fucking one had 5-10 minutes about the trailer being low res or some other lazy shit. He does not even do good coverage of Derek Savage anymore.
It is good but it is not good enough to warrant the level of obsession it sparked in Adam. There is something in it that really hits for him and he is the kind of fag who just cannot let things go.
Adam is lying full stop.
I disagree. Spoony had a history of extremely antisocial behavior and was constantly shittalked by people around him before he had his big hiatus. For example, former TGWTG contributors said that Spoony was a dick and they didn't like him in the days of the TGWTG anniversary specials way before he was kicked out. He also had a history of treating his fans like garbage ever since he first started and his ED page documents this. By comparison Adam's history of drama is much more minimal and he's mostly steered clear of it until this Drinker spat.
His justification on Sardonicast has been that the films being made today have already incorporated all the advancements of the classic Hollywood era of films, so of course films being made nowadays are going to be better. The more I describe it, the more evident it is that Adam is a consoomer who consooms films and gets stuffy and stuck-up about it, but only as a thinly veiled facade.
If you haven't been shoved into a small dank theatre and not allowed out until you've endured the whole thing you haven't seen Eraserhead.
I don't think he's ever lived in Toronto. He's from Edmonton originally and has lived in Vancouver for his entire life adult life as far as I know, but he will become a U.S. citizen soon just so he can live with his black BF in Atlanta for longer periods.
Dude has a gigantic hate boner for Lynch and shits on him when given any opportunity. Pretty sure he still hasn't watched any of Twin Peaks solely to spite the fans in his audience who adore his works. A lot his aversion to Lynch stems from Lynch's insistence on ambiguity and never really relaying anything explicit to the viewer. I think he values directors who try to make a clear and concerted effort in what their trying to express more than flat out "nebulous surrealism." But at the same time, the Holy Mountain is one his favorites and he will ascribe borderline pareidolic meaning to a lot of Kaufman's works, especially Synecdoche so idk.
That's rich if true. When Ralph made Sardonicast watch Wild At Heart, Adam got really hung up on when the film was obvious in its Wizard of Oz imagery. He smugly says "it really should have been more subtle!" and gets upset that they explicitly explain in dialogue that the characters are like those in the Wizard of Oz. He couldn't understand that it was a mockery of how borderline insulting mainstream Hollywood films are with their imagery, instead critiquing it for feeling like it was insulting his intelligence.
Jesus Christ. "Taxi Driver" is something they'd show in Film Class 101, the kind that allows non-arts majors in.
Not defending Adam, but Saw is a different breed of mainstream trash kino.
You can dislike two people at the same time who disagree with each other.
While true, that's immaterial to my point. I'm talking about their argumentation quality, not their likeability as a person. I've never liked either of them, but now I empathize with Adam's instinctive response to Critical Drinker. You only botch basic plot details as a professional critic out of incompetence or malevolence.
Oh my GOD what happened to his FACE?
