The Critical Drinker

Something retarded has happened a few days ago. After the YMS retardation, Drinker got some lite retardation from another lolcow. This time, it's our own Turkroach, Hasan Piker. Here's a little context on it all:

>HeelsVSBabyFace (aka Az) got into a nontroversy by boycotting & ranting the new Starfield game for having troon pronouns.

>Bethesda shills, combined with Twittards, Redditors, & leftoids in general threw a bitchfit & are trying to cancel him.

>HasanAbi had his usual retarded takes on it.

>TCD, being friends with Az, called him out using the empty chair meme.

>HasanAbi, in his retarded fashion, tries to ratio Drinker & succeeded within 30 mins which is unsurprisingly due to his lobotomized little roaches, aka, his fans. That said, they didn't ratio his comment views, which are at 1.4 million at this point, compared to Hasan's 647k at the moment. Also, Az clapped back at Hasan too.

One of the most retarded things in this, is that he uses his reaction to TCD's Barbie review & him not using a picture or clip from it as an "own" of some sorts, despite it being the same video where he was so ass-blasted & dilated that he went full-on Low Tier God & literally said Drinker should kill himself, & he did it around 7x times in a row in a single stream. Which is as ironic, insincere, & jokingly as manner as his America deserves 9/11 "joke" was.

Mind you, if you point this out, Hasan's little roaches would say it's a good thing & TCD should do it.

What is the empty chair meme?

This, but TCD's version had no banner.

Basic gist is that Hasan is even worse than the likes of XQC when it comes to reacting, at least they stay on their chairs when reacting. This turkroach either eats without caring about the video he's reacting to, or just goes away to take a long leak in the toilets during his reactions without even pausing the video he's reacting to.
 
I listened to his first two books. They were alright, movie might be decent. I think a lot of people will shit on him over his female characters though.

I’ve been trying to read more lately, so I might check them out. Maybe if the trailer gets me interested.

It looks like every other hateful generic action thriller that Hollywood has squatted down and squeezed out over the last fifteen years. Hard pass.

The release of the film may make or brake this thread, a sperg out may be imminent. I hope not tho, i've also grown out of his videos but he's one of the few yt creators I wish further success.

The only credit I can give him is that he's trying to do something other than criticize.

The problem is, that "something" doesn't look particularly interesting.

For all of the exposure he's had and given to things that are creative and interesting, he settled into something safe and unoriginal.

It's...well, not surprising. And I say that as someone who is generally positive on the guy. Let's face it, if he could make a mint out of writing books, he wouldn't be doing YouTube videos (and I don't care how much I like him or any of the creators he associates with...the "hangout and talk shit with your friends" streams are deeply insufferable).

I'll say this, it at least looks professionally made and shot well. As in the color grading isn't a disaster like AVGN or Walker's crap. And at least it appears to actually be coming out, unlike Stucmann's vaporware. And btw, it's been great seeing Stuckmann get roasted all over after Drinker unloaded on him for being a twerp.

I still don't get why these successful millionaire youtubers think it's a good idea to go all out trying to be a movie creator, since I really can't think of a single time a critic, much less a Youtuber, made a really good non teeny bopper style product.

Every critic is a wannabe filmmaker at heart.

Point of pride. For all of the unfounded criticism of "let's see YOU do better", they're at least making an attempt.

That said, and I admit I'm being charitable, the same YouTubers also don't have funding or likely time to really hunker down and get funding to make things that are more interesting. So the story goes that there were something like five or seven visual artists who worked on Everything, Everywhere All at Once. Well, first you have to have an original idea, but let's say you have it. Now you need to employ people to make it work. Even five quality people in the orbit of a YouTuber are hard to find, and even harder to pay once you've found them.

The part that gets me is that Drinker clearly knows people who can do things. He interviewed Russell Crowe and Ben Shapiro (which, I think he's a weenie, but he's a prolific enough weenie that the contrast in fame is stark). He apparently got insider information from multiple sources on what went down with Batgirl. Yet, somehow, this is the best effort he can make when he makes a movie?

Yeah, and Roger Ebert actually did something kinda unique with Beyond the Valley of the Dolls, but that still bombed and he went back to being a critic. At this point the only one I care about that much for actual reviews of the quality of a movie instead of just how woke or non-woke it is is Jahns.

The RLM guys are a perfect example of this. They didn't obtain that huge warehouse just to film HitB and BotW episodes in for the rest of their lives—they obviously had bigger dreams. I think back then they still saw themselves as filmmakers first and foremost, with the review/critic gig just being a way to fund their moviemaking aspirations. "Space Cop" put an end to that. For all Mike and Jay joke about it now, I think its failure really stung them.

I think they kind of had to know, though. Of all the people who understood that you can't rely on meme magic to make a shitty movie a success (see: Snakes on a Plane), it would be these guys.

Crappy special effects? Unattractive actors? Juvenile humor? What was going to elevate them as filmmakers from that?

Sure they had some good ideas to start with (the whole Star Wars/Plinkett saga was influential if nothing else), but the fact that they've never even tried to make connections outside of Milwaukee really says that maybe they weren't even shooting for success, and perhaps they know they're getting too old to pretend they even were.

Costs have doubled (at least) since Covid so money could be a factor.
