In Praise of Shadows has returned from his self-imposed exile after the backlash of his conservative horror video, it is a six hour long video about John Waters.
most interesting is the video he linked in the description, which is on a channel made only yesterday.
only five minutes in on this one, looks like he is doubling down on all he has said before.
look at the comments section, the majority is still shitting on him, but its crazy there are still some people who wholeheartedly supported his video toward the whole ordeal, saying that his points were correct and that wendigoon and co. are big bad far rightoids

Zane really gives that crazy bitch aura, wouldn't be surprised if he ends up becoming a fully fledged cow that turns into the real life Be My Cat guy. I'm lowkey considering hate-watching just because his smear of Wendigoon was the absolute peak of his career and otherwise he gets no views.

Xanderhal thinks that Jesus was killed by the Catholics.
Hilarious that his chat and the comments are bewildered by his stupidity.

Oh my God, this is the dumbest take I have ever heard in my life. He doesn't know even the most basic of Roman history. How can Romans be Christian when Christ is still preaching? Why would Christians kill Christ?
As for "Jew on non-Jew hate crime", Jesus was Jewish but the Jews considered his preaching and statements to be blasphemous and outcast Him.

That’s because those people are genuinely crazy, they think that anyone who isn’t in the “correct camp” is secretly a nazi, it’s kinda like reverse McCarthyism in a way

Even in the McCarthy era, the communists were feverishly accusing their enemies of doing exactly what they were already doing to each other, cancel culture.
 
Non shit politics in media is basically impossible because you'd need someone without bias or could empathize with any side, and most all current writers are incapable of that or even imagining centrist. Horror in particular though is one of the most retarded genres to ever desire or debate politics in, for several reasons, BIG NONO in film because of time constraints.

Like it doesn't matter what the hell each characters political affiliation is in the thing, or if all the ghosts in the shining were republican or democrat. if you have a 120 minute film requirement, every minute adds up. In horror, does it build tension? Does it help build minimum required attachment to characters? Tease the bad thing? Is it kind of wasteful but maybe it's an artistic choice or to open interpretations etc. to make a good film you don't have 30 minutes just to show a gay disabled couple that then goes away or to have someone discuss the palestine israel conflict or why democrat good *clap*.

Imo subgenres are something like horror, ie the shining or the thing, alien, possibly it, where you've got lots of tension and build up then shit happens. slashers like friday the 13th where you just kind of go to watch jason fuck shit up because mostly the plots are kinda crap. exceptions or blurred lines in them, mainly the early ones where they had to really try, like nightmare on elm street handled tension very very well, and characters felt a bit more attachable, like the ending in the car etc. then you have realistic "horror" thats usually drama first, stuff like spec ops the line or war dramas. anything handling stuff like dday or non action hero vietnam has to have some level of terror. even stuff like rambo has some with ptsd etc.

war dramas will naturally have some level of politics or "fuck em all". in the others, you could have like a short less than 5 min scene where maybe 2 people are shooting the shit and you have some sorta funny comment like "dadgum joe, wish jefferson dickley got elected, damn democrats tryna take my guns" something that doesn't mean anything in particular unless you do it to make the character portrayed as an asshole (punches someone who disagrees) or annoying (gets in everybodys face and says theyre nazis and gonna die unless they vote blue no matter who). it doesn't mean anything and shouldnt relate to modern day. you shouldn't have something that makes it dated or opinionated, besides something like having a picture of someone like Clinton on the wall or a newspaper about the twin towers to show the time period.

above all else though, every single film is going to have fans of all colors. joker is going to have incels, and people that think he's just a retard, and people that had a bad day and identify with the character to some level. like maybe the objective interpretation of the film is that he's a good man, that kept getting fucked over, that then develops an obsessive crush with someone he doesn't know and makes decisions that hurts nobody more than himself. like a message of "if you have a bad day, these choices do not fix anything, and make you go further into a hole or lose yourself, and hurt those closest to you that believed in you and loved you". but still there's going to be people that watch it and go "yeah that woman was a fuckin bitch for not putting out" or "lol hes such a dumbass" and yes you will always have a niche of even "maybe i should do that too" retards.

in a film like longlegs, you will have christians that see it and like it thinking its about continued prayer and fighting evil, rejecting it, the pain you might have to go to fight it, etc. satanists who think "haha lmao get rekt cant wait to burn in hell and look like a troon!" or some shit. you will always have a retarded mush of beliefs, and keeping stuff neutral is how you make money. if you make something saying "haha all conservatives/liberals are fucking dumb retards" then you cut off that audience. "women are retards haha" audience gone. kind of like how if breadtubers weren't majority unlikable retards that had no ability to understand why some people think stuff like hrt, hormone blockers, early exposure to sex shit to children was a problem, or that maybe the government is fucking retarded majority of the time, that maybe science and big pharma have been pozzloaded, while being a smug little smirking fag about it, they'd be more generally acceptable and profitable. several members of breadtube have potential and have some level of learning ability, just when it comes to bathtub hormones they'd instantly sprint off the cliff while telling children to follow and find the chocolate factory at the bottom.
 
in a film like longlegs
i know this thread isn't for movies but long legs sucked specifically because the script didn't seem to understand the southern gothic horror symbolism it tried to employ. It was a pastiche of things that have already been done many times before and a LOT better by other people.
 
Comment in the Right Wing Horror video


Fuck me, these people are dense.
Mindy Kaling literally spoke at the DNC calling Nancy Pelosi brat, these people are just dumb and took that retarded viral tweet seriously about it being a conservative show in disguise. They dont even mean conservative as in neolib, they legitimately think basic bitch Democrat centrism is this big cabal of republicans

Guy's just a dumb consoomer, his tweets get more attention than his videos because the guy has never had an interesting thought in his life that isn't dumb ragebait

I've been waiting for this tard to come back, can't wait to see where this leads.

Even if you have a non shit writer anything to the contrary will be used by Culture War tubers etc to score gotchas. You end up with stuff like Joker as a result. Where the Audiance remembers the film not for what it was but the cultural response.

You can’t just make a good or bad movie now. There is always a reason for it.

IN PRAISE OF SHADOWS UPDATE.

For irl reasons it took me till today to get halfway through the video (sorry kiwis, dead end standing for 9 hours a day has made me value how I use my free time).

As posted by @manofbrasil, Zane is doubling down, sort of. He admits the video was dogshit but he doesn't really own to what he said in it, gives the vibe he is more worried he expressed himself poorly. Downright says that he played the commentary community game by engaging and should know better. Says that he came off as full of himself because he is gay, doesn't hate poor people cuz he is poor and doesn't hate Appalachia since he is a hillbilly. He says he is going to save shorter ideas for this "secret" channel.

On the John Waters video. Is OK I guess. It takes him 40 minutes to talk about Waters' feature films because we have to learn the context of who John Waters is. In a video titled 'The Filthy Life of John Waters' it makes sense to be all encompassing but it made me wonder why the fuck shouldn't I just pirate his many autobiographies myself instead of being spoonfed by this guy. I've a complicated relation with John Waters as in the guy sort of died to me when I discovered he wanted to be friends with that poser Warhol and that he was a registered Democrat but I can't shake the feeling that Zane is whitewashing Waters in a way.

For instance while talking about Pink Flamingos and Divine's drag performance (roughly 1 hour, 55 minutes) he talks about how queer humour was effectively shock humour pushing personal boundaries (his example is mirrors near urinals at gay clubs) and laments the edge was lost for mainstream appeal. While talking about Desperate Living, Zane talks about how Waters had gay actors play straight characters and vice versa (roughly 1 hour and 38 minutes) and how usually in his scripts straight characters in positions of power are full on degenerates whereas sexual minorities tend to live and let live (arguably this point is an expansion of something he said earlier in the video about how Waters' early work is a representation of straight culture), he then goes to say that this is similar to real life as queer people tend to be the ones that care the most about others while straight people in power abuse them and yes, he mentions the groomer meme (roughly 1 hour, 45 minutes) three minutes after that he mentions that Desperate Living had a scene of underage nudity he excuses as being normal for the time and after that talks about how they risked the life of a baby for a scene.

I don't know Waters or the Dreamlanders that well but I couldn't stop thinking about how funny it was that you can tell gay generations apart by how they explain their actions. OG gays do shit because its funny or think it looks cool, nugays have to make an essay explaining how every little action has context rooted in something else.

I know that some people here don't like him but in his review of The Hills Have Eyes (a review spawned because of Zane), TAO said that civilization has a monopoly on savagery (this in response to Wes Craven talking about Sawney Bean) and in my head the only conclussion I can come up from Zane's video on Waters is that the upper class has a monopoly on filth. Waters and the Dreamlanders were bougies that engaged in petty crime for shits and giggles and did what they did for reactions. Waters himself had some almost sociopathic traits like enjoying car accidents and going to big media trials 'to relax'. John Waters is distinctly an individual that could only have spawned from the upper class of New England, he can be as gay and have as bad of taste as he wants but trying to intellectualize his every decision as a big indectment on society like he is some film school current year auteur is almost as funny as his cameo in The Chipmunks.
