The Game of Game of Thrones
Game of Thrones hit the television landscape like a warhead, giving a massive amount of legitimacy to live action fantasy content. But season 8 absolutely killed the show's legacy and left a power vacuum that other studios have been trying to fill for years.
Rings of Power, the Witcher, House of the Dragon, all titles striving to be big budget fantasy shows aiming to capture that same zeitgeist. But are any of them worthy to claim the same throne of Game of Thrones?
This video got postponed for a long time due to a myriad of real life issues. Ideally I'll be back on track in the near future.

What would a GOOD Suicide Squad game be like?
Переглядів 1663 місяці тому
Rocksteady's Kill the Justice League is an undeniable failure, critically and commercially. But seeing how badly the game flopped, and with how badly every design decision seemed to be handled, it led me to ask myself a simple question: Hypothetically, what would a good Suicide Squad game be like? So I made this video to imagine the idea, from tis story down to its game mechanics.

Columbo is a Timeless Masterpiece

Columbo is regarded as one of the best detective shows ever made. And even though many years have passed since the end of the series, it's still popular enough to have a strong and active fanbase to this day. But why is that, exactly? How does an old detective show manage to stay popular into 2024 when so many other series' have been lost or abandoned to time? Well for one thing, even many year...
So I FINALLY Watched Venture Bros (Season 3)
Переглядів 1,2 тис.4 місяці тому
Venture Bros season 3, a point in the series that may be a vital flashpoint when it comes to quality. Seasons 1 and 2 of the show were fun and enjoyable, but a third season is usually around the point that makes or breaks a show. But will the series see the jump in quality I'm expecting to see? My review/reaction of Venture Bros season 3 is here at last. Kind of got held up and distracted by a ...

Abijah Fowler is an amazing character, a pure evil SOB who still manages to have a little depth to him. A perfec...

I'm rectifying that problem by watching Venture Bros season by season, including the movie that came out after the show concluded.

Omni-Man - Invincible's Best Character

Omni-Man is probably Invincible' s best character and J.K. Simmons' best performance, a total badass with the best voice acting on the show to back him up. But if the show is giving him a redemption arc, will they be able to stick the landing?

    A man defined by a world that took everything from him in horrific fashion at such a young age. Not sure if anyone here has seen photos of people during a serious famine, but it's really hard to look at. He strikes me as a man that had he been in ANY other situation as a child he would've been better for it.

    It's interesting to hear hate floats is your least favorite because honestly it's one of the most memorable of the season to me! I think of it as sort of a tri-parter with the s1 finale and the first episode of s2, plus it's to my memory the first time the tensions had been jacked up that high. Also, the action sequences + brock and phantom limb teamup- can't beat it. But I guess I get where you're coming from, since several episodes' pop culture references are lost on me that probably elevate it for other people, so they're below hate floats for me. To each their own

    I have four speedster characters in the story ive been writing. I think ive done an ok job at balancing them. Cobalt is the strongest character in the whole story do to his rediculouse speed and electricity armor, but hes dead, so hes only in flashbacks. Silva is teh second fastest, but shes nerfed by only showing up once and thats as a one time villain part of team that was going against a slightly larger team that also has a speedster Pebble is limited by the fact that while he is a speedster, he doesnt have the refelxes of one, so he primarily uses his lightning based ability to shoot lighting bolts at people rather than go fast, and only goes fast when he needs to Sulfur has the same abilty as Cobalt, but he is just a scientist and doesnt have much combat skill, so he might as well not even be a speedster

    Dude imagine how boring it would be to solve everything in litterally less than a second(which almost every speedster could do). The show wouldn't exist ,it'd be a youtube short or a tiktok per episode. The show sucks in the later seasons, but it's a fun show to watch with your brain off, don't look for imperfections and you'll have a good time.

    they shouldn’t be dumb, they could be unwise. if the character doesn’t realise that they can just punch really fast and make the other guy die, that’s dumb. if the character walks just outside the visible explosion of a nuke “just to look cool” and then dies of radiation poisoning, that’s unwise

    They said they wrote the show as "i write one, you write one, we write one", and when you listen to their commentaries and hear their individual backgrounds, you can kind of see it in each episode, who wrote what line, doc and jackson have just enough similarities to have identical senses of humor. i prefer jackson as a person, as a voice actor, his deliveries, his ideas for what the show shoulda, coulda, woulda been, but i always find myself preferring doc's scripts throughout the seasons.

  • @mikemath9508
    @mikemath9508 Місяць тому

    Hank's earnest ignorance and Jackson Publick's deliveries are key to making a dumb character work. There is only ONE time in the commentaries I can recall Publick saying something in Hank's voice, and it's probably season 4 but could be season 3, spoilers: they're talking about the name Shallow Gravy, and Publick pops off a "it's gotta have a pun!" in Hank's voice that's so perfect.

    You forgot the big twist BEFORE the clones: That the titular “Venture Bros.” were Rusty and his flipper-baby brother, JJ. They sold us on that by A) Killing off Hank and Dean B) Completely redoing the title sequence with Rusty and JJ silhouettes where they had Hank and Dean before and C) Explaining why, as you noted before, Hank and Dean had not featured as much. Of course, the clones were a twist of a twist.

      What part was ahistorical? Fowler’s childhood culture and world was brutally destroyed by the English. He saw you can throw in with the winners or you can die, and he has chosen to win. Many Irish people sold out their countrypeople with this philosophy and then were sent worldwide to brutalize others. What’s ahistorical or over the top?

    The original run of Columbo is fantastic television. It really stands the test of time and there is a lot of love that is apparent from Peter Falk and the crew that worked on the show. The whole show is on Tubi. I believe that Mrs. Columbo is 100% real. Though she doesn't ever appear on screen, others mention seeing her like on the cruise ship episode, Troubled Waters. As to all the stories of his extended family, that's where I think he likes to add some flavor just to fit the crimes he finds himself investigating.
