6:16 Thank you for bringing up the breaching of Helm's Deep. I remember being in the theater when that happened and everyone was just floored and awed when the explosion happened. No yelling or cheers, just mouths agape with a lot of gasps.

14:50 in the movie its more than just whites attacking blacks its anyone with skill, "its not about race, i just want your eyes..."

0:50 "diversity" you mean virtue signaling, which is why it always feels disingenuous the main reason the show sucked is cause it wasn't a critique on anything or commentary it was LECTURING the audience, there was no nuance to who was good or bad just obvious if white bad if anything else good

The army coming late for dramatic effect killed a lot of people. I loved that episode but when you really think about it it’s kind of infuriating

Rewatching GoT right now and about to get to the Battle of Winterfell. I distinctly remember how stupid it was that they sacrificed the Dothraki in the dumbest charge ever. I'm thankful for that being your first fix, this video rocks

It's terrible just watched a couple of the new twilight zone season 2. The older ones in the 60s were more complex even though they had less money, better writing

Yeah, I just tried to get through that racist 1st episode. Gawd, it sucks so bad 🙄🤮🤮🤮

(Spoilers for episodes) Another problem I had was that things were just happening, and if you ask yourself "Why? This doesn't make much sense, and if I question it, it just feels like incompetence of the characters, even though they're portrayed as smart (like the black mom in episode 3), or incompetence on Peele's side", the show is just like "It just happens, don't think about it, don't question it", and, like, the best part about The Twilight Zone has always been the questioning part. But in Peele's show, I was mostly just bored, and when I did question things and have my own theories on what's going on, the "twist" is just so lame and boring. If there even is one. Like "Oh, this racist white cop is specifically targeting this black woman and her son, but was totally fine with the black woman who served him food in the diner, and even complimented her and her cooking a lot? And he even shows up anywhere they go, almost magically? I feel like there's something more to this episode than just a camcorder than can rewind time! Maybe mom has a secret or something? After all, they used this camcorder before as well for decades (it's her dad's), and only suddenly it started rewinding time, so there must be something going on!", and then you realize "Oh, there's nothing? The guy is just racist, and not magical? He wasn't racist towards the black lady who made and served him food because "reasons"? He just magically showed up because the plot demanded? Mom didn't use the camcorder properly whatsoever to cause unnecessary tension? And they give a mini-Martin Luther King speech at the end to stand up to a line of *white* racist cops? Okay...I thought there was something more to it." Or "Oh, astronauts get to go to Mars, but know that their home planet may be doomed? Cool, I can't wait to see them try to make their life work on Mars! Or at least to see more of space, cause space is the coolest part of space, and any space-related story!...Oh, we won't get to see them get to Mars, except at the end? And we don't get to see space almost at all? Even through the windows? Whole episode is on the ship, and practically NOTHING happens while on there? One guy, Pierson, only assumes it's all fake, a stress test, and tries to go out the airlock? So it's not a stress test, and they get to Mars? But it still zooms out to a dark room with Pierson, and aliens (who we don't see, cause that would require them spending money) just say how they passed the "test", making you think that it was a simulation because they did get Pierson (somehow, when he opened the lock, we saw the Sun, and for some reason the air wasn't being sucked out of the room, and he had like 10 seconds of being absolutely okay, despite a completely open airlock, and staring at the sun, before the solar flare had to kill him, presumably? Peele doesn't understand space xd), meaning that it may have been them, and not a sun, Idk? But if that's the case, and it was a simulation, then those astronauts never actually got to Mars, though? And their home was not ruined? But that would imply that none of that happened, and that they didn't go through an actual destruction of their home, and that they're not on Mars? But how is the simulation conducted? Did they abduct those astronauts, and force them through this? The episode doesn't explain that. It doesn't explain anything. The entire alien part was so absolutely fucking random and dumb, and the aliens are like "They passed the test, they may be worth saving"...so does that imply that the world is okay, and that it's on the brink of destruction? I'm just fucking confused. It's convoluted and dumb. And boring because we don't get to see space, we barely get to see Mars, or let alone them trying to make living on Mars work, and mostly we get to see people in a spaceship, mostly bickering about things that are non-issue. Like, Takamura Rei (a completely African American looking woman, like, she doesn't even look half Japanese, so this name either implies she's just a weeb who changed her name, or that one of her parents is Japanese, but she got no Japanese traits from that parent, tho the former theory is funnier, and not out of the equation) makes a huge problem out of them...choosing to blast off towards Mars. I repeat, she was angry, and said that they didn't care about her or her life, because of that decision. When making such a decision is the very showcase of them caring. Otherwise, she would've died. They went over that. In fact, they spent 5-10 minutes discussing whether they should leave, when they've heard that an ICBM missile is headed towards their near vicinity. I swear, Peele had solid stuff. "Get Out" and "Nope" were great movies. I haven't watched "Us", but didn't hear good things about it. But it's like the dude had a stroke after making those movies, and just decided like he can't write characters properly. The entire show, people just "do" things that make no sense for any normal person to do, or say stuff that I'm like "Normal people don't talk like that lol", often without any explanation, probably because it's not a movie's length where those characters could be better explored. He tackles a TV Show the way he'd tackle a movie, for every episode. And it does NOT help. I don't think I've had a single really likable character that I wanted to root for in the first season. (didn't get to second season yet) They all have their problems, and so often he tries to make the issue of racism, or refugees, or white people = bad, or men = bad, and all such issues in the episodes, and makes those things the main deal of the episode, and all the weirdness of The Twilight Zone is just absolutely secondary to it. In the third episode, I genuinely forget that they have the rewinding camcorder half the time, because of either how little emphasis is put into it, or how badly it's used. The mom even uses it for Lotto, not to win it, but to have a sweet moment with her son (Which, don't get me, was VERY sweet, but for fuck's sake, might as well use it to ACTUALLY win Lotto, and never have problems with money ever again, you or your son, or his future daughter), like, she doesn't even THINK about using it for winning Lotto, and then deciding not to. When any normal person would be like "Well, might as well. It's not an objectively bad thing to do, so why not? If anything, it's objectively good, as it helps me, my family and their future, and no one really suffers from it." Like, Adam "Fucking" Sandler used his remote in Click better than she did. I was only ever pissed that he decided to not take it on his second chance at the end of the movie, and I was like "Bruh, the only downside to it was using the fast forward option, so just don't use that!!!". Idk, this shit just makes me feel like Peele should avoid making shows, and stick to movies, where he can flesh things out a lot more. Which is odd, since he should be way more used to making UA-cam skits and shorts. (which half the time feel like they had more budget than this show, with how little they were showing of the abnormal, honestly) And it sucks, cause both "Get Out" and "Nope" had a dope idea and/or premise. And executed it SO WELL. So going into this show, I was like "Well, after those movies, I feel like Peele has some awesome horror-esque ideas cooking in his good ol' noggin'!", but no, the premises were either boring (camcorder that rewinds time), dumb (meteor makes men angy), or just secondary to a preachy subject (the camcorder episode, and the refugee episode, off the top of my head).

That was shit lol

Wtf is 'calvery', why do you saybit so wrong?

awesome analysis. Definitely agree that there is so much nuance in Bigby's relationships and his self awareness that could be amazing to be explored. wish it was looked into more often in both media honestly.

1. Excellent video, this belongs alongside the major TV and film critic stuff on UA-cam, will be subscribing. 2. I only finished season 1 of the Mandalorian because I found it slow, meandering, predictable and kinda hollow. I wasn't able to put it into words properly though, until now. The moment I think I was finally done with it was the last episode of season 1, where Mando gets over his distrust of droids enough to allow the IG to save his life (I think that's what happened, was not a memorable moment). It was SO predictable and so damn boring I decided that I just couldn't do any more, finished the episode and bailed. There are so many issues, like how this elite bounty hunter is basically incompetent and gets through most difficult situations through luck and the LITERAL plot armour he's wearing. He gets beaten up by basically everything he meets. When I complained that it was slow I would see people saying "it's supposed to be slow, it's a Western!" but that slowness has to be filled with... Something. A long shot of a landscape with a figure travelling across it is only evocative if you have some reason to care, or something to chew on from a previous scene. The stories in Mandalorian are as simple, if not simpler than most of the Clone Wars series. Clone Wars at least had themes regarding war, duty, honor, friendship etc that it occasionally explored but Mando is just about a guy who is a heartless mercenary who doesn't want a baby Yoda... Until he decides he does want a baby Yoda (cue Brooklyn 99 Rosa with the dog meme). It has the trappings of a Western without any of the tension, because it's deeply predictable and basic, trading in 2 dimensional archetypes. Oh and they got Pedro Pascal for the role and stuck a helmet on him the entire time. That man can act, but he doesn't get the opportunity to do so and his body language isn't strong enough to convey much , as I suspect his direction was to either be stoic or flustered depending on the scene with nothing in between.

0:50 Cavalry =\= Calvary. Sorry, my OCD insisted. 🤣

I prefer the tone of wolf among us to the comics.

Who's uncle Tom?

Seriously man. Stop nitpicking. Your idea for the rewrite is pretentious AF. Things don't always happen according to themes and arcs. Life can unfold in seemingly random ways. All that extra fluff would have made it seem like some film school sh*thead made the movie. You are projecting your unimaginativeness in perception onto this.

TZ 2019 is nothing more than TZ remade for black people full of black actors and produced by black horror director Jordan Peele. Lacking in creativity and original content.

This video essay puts exactly how I felt about Fables into words-Fables wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t nuanced, and if you’re going into it looking for the same themes as The Wolf Among Us, you won’t find them. But that said, I am SO desperate for The Wolf Among Us 2. The first game was so good and left me in total awe.

I was looking on how to explain the comic and why it didn't feel as REAL as the game, and you put it absolutely perfectly

I didnt believe there would be a worst series than 2002's remake.

I’m genuinely curious about how Red and Bigby would interact in this world, I hope season 2 tries something like that, it’s okay if they don’t but…it’ll be something interesting considering Red Riding Hood pretty much saw Bigby mostly as a big ass evil dark wolf.

One is a game, the other is a book

Rod Sterling Silver

The more you dig up in this shit, the more you get dirty.

Proof that qualified movie writers can be just as dumb as someone that has never written a movie before, you just really need a creative, common sense and logical mind... which movie writers nowadays seriously lack.

3 decade Vet that's grew up watching various War movies .... I have to say the batter of winterfeld was the most ridiculous of any

The Dothraki’s charge made the Charge of the Light Brigade look like a brilliant military move.

If Bran was used correctly and was given more of a personality, I don’t think he would have been as hated.

A big issue I have with the comics is the writer almost forcing his own ideology into it with how he portrays alot of female characters with one's we are supposed to like such as snow white being dressed conservatively whereas characters like cindererlla being dressed more "provocatively" also the whole farm plot in the comic was about the writer bashing on communism rather than what it could have been which was a nuanced take on a complicated topic

Yah, you’re such a better writer than Blomkamp… Send him a DM with the notes 🙄

I’m pretty sure I remember Jon said women and children will have to be trained to defend the north as well. Guess dumb and dumber kinda “Forgot” about it.😂

The creator of Twilight Zone is Rod SERLING..........NOT STERLING.

The Dothraki are light cavalry. They should do targeted strikes with flaming arrows and whatnot and then retreat and harass the enemy every step of the way. The direct charge makes no sense.

I was so frustrated and disappointed with how this whole story turned out around the White Walkers and the Night King. I remind that the very first minute of the series, first season, first episode, it was the White Walkers and not political discussions between noble families or whatever. I think that's where the series is completely broken. For me all the wars, stories etc... between the houses, the kingdoms were precisely to show the absurdity of people fighting among themselves over stupid things while the greatest threat arrived gently before the climax of last season, where we could have had a wonderful season where those who hate each other should have cooperated in despair, but instead we just had this big shit.

With such a questionable history, why is Bigby even given the position of Sheriff of Fabletown?

DEI ruins everything

You're right this should have been an entire season, and it should've been the endgame.

Your final solution is dumb, considering its shown him taking dragon fire without any problem.

Bro picks an extremely suspenseful short film, points to all the things nobody bats and eye to in the film, adds the most GENERIC and OVERUSED plot points and character angles ever, classifies it as "Masterpiece" Oh you didn't like the climax, oh it's just an action climax, WELLL DUUUUHHH, a 7foot pile of bodyparts with unknown powers wants to add you to it's collection, do you think a better climax would be the girl just stopping and goes like "Hmmmm... let's think about the going on objectification about my situation here" WHO HAS TIME FOR THAT BS. Here's an observation about you hmm?! Before you go out judging these masterful creations yess?! Hear hear, "Every movie, has two kinds of scores, 1.Critique score, 2.Audience score, now audience score is relevant everywhere, an audience score never betrays a movie's quality, the Critique score is extremely subjective, it's relevant to very few films, you my friend are a Critique, and the one thing that's common in every critique everrr is the AUDACITY to believe if a product doesn't fit their description then it's bad and they're right, it's disgusting, take your buisness elsewhere mate These movies and shows are meant for the public to "escape reality", they immerse us, take us with them, make their world real, makes us forget our own. If you keep looking for societal problems in these then you're not escaping, you're just left behind..

The thing is they had knowledge that the night king was coming to winterfel for months.... they could of build multiple fire trenches with the man power and time, even makeshift wooden barriers surrounding the whole castle stretching for hundreds of meters from the walls. They could of drenched the surrounding forrest in oil with pit falls ect.

Hope with season 2 they cut ties to the comics and turn it into its own thing

You cant see shit in this batle of darkness

imagine a scenario where Winterfell eventually falls when Jon or Danaerys fail to kill the Night King and or die. With the fall of Winterfell, it would be followed by the ultimate fall of the North. it would actually be here where the southern kingdoms realize now that the threat of the white walkers was real and that the North had truly been to something this whole time, with the Nights Watch and all. Thus we would probably see the mobilization of the entirety of Southern Westeros in order to try and halt the deads advance. maybe they are still Unable to hold back the advance of the Dead and the whole of Westeros is thrown into an Ice age, the Long Night. or maybe they either the dead centrale into the Westerlands, the Riverlands, and the Crownlands, and maybe even reach Dorne before they are turned back. maybe this leads to a back and forth between an eventual defeat or by sheer will they are pushed back into the North, and if not completely destroyed then pushed back across the wall. in the midst of the Northern campaign, when Winterfell is recapture, it could be possible that the entirety of the castle is near completely empty as ALL bodies may have been raised back up before known lords and warriors' bodies would disappear into Westeros in later campaigns. But is possible, the fotress, once a powerful castle with a seat of authority, now lay literally frozen in time buried in feet or even meters in snow, heavily damaged from the battle that saw the fall of Danaerys Targaryen, House Stark, Winterfell, and the identity of the North....

In many castle sieges the women are said to have showered debris/rocks on the besieging army if there were not enough men to garrison the entire walls.. Not cowering in the basement.

Good video, but you saying "calvary" the whole time ruined it

Its good that AI is getting better and better, because maybe in 5y time, we'll be able to fix this battle by ourselves :D Anyway, I think the battle is pretty much unfixable, because the issue alone isn't just the tactic, but the battle and the outcome itself... something that was a threat for 8 seasons was ended in one episode. Thats not good.

You know what could easily fix this battle and most of Season 8?? Make them LOSE!!! They lose Winterfell, and everyone is forced to retreat to the South!!! We can still have the heroes still die in the Battle and the Dothraki all falling but within the walls, but it was all in vain. EVERYONE will be distraught, and they are forced to turn to their enemies for aid. With some persuasion, they agree a temporary alliance to face off The White Walkers and The Night King that'll determine the fate of all of Westeros

This show is full of woke garbage

Me leí los comics tras jugar al juego y no estoy de acuerdo en que no se explore al personaje de Bigby. Si hay un desarrollo del personaje (desde el asesinato de Rosa Roja, su relación con Blanca y su padre, su huida de Fabletown...) como lo hay de otros personajes que el juego aprovecha para desarrollar en los diálogos (Además de la linea principal que sería Fables, había comics exclusivos con cuentos que explicaban los orígenes de personajes y como habían llegado de las Tierras Natales a NY, como Blanca, Jack, Beauty... Y que juego dinamiza muy bien para mostrar las relaciones de poder y dinamizar el diálogo y que te metas en la historia) El problema es querer ver el cómic como una prolongación del videojuego cuando tanto el estilo de dibujo como la narrativa corresponden a los 2000 y The Wolf Among Us es una adaptación de videojuego ubicada en los gustos de la última década de 2010 además de que en el comic todo se cuenta de poco a poco y el videojuego sintetiza muchísimo. Ahora que lo he jugado de 2 he disfrutado más por las referencias y son muchas y con relación a los comics

This is an awesome video, it deserve waaay more views
