    Always thought this was gonna be the worst bond of this run. Really hated quantum when it came out. But over the years I've come too ignore the action sequences (horrible) and enjoy the story. And as you say best bond girl too😄 if they could re edit them action scenes some how it would a far better movie. That first sequence on the scaffolding is pure bork😂

    I dunno...a character learning to read in a vacuum isn't good writing to me. Reminds me of marvel stuff these days. But the man who wrote the books... He wrote the princess of Mars stuff first and it was grand but he didn't understand how to maintain control of his IP. So when he wrote Tarzan, it was a new dawn. And he sought to franchise his work, because he had faith in his brand. It's kinda why superheroes and the like get the lines of merch they do these days. Because of Burroughs.

    Hi, this is Helios from twitter. So my main claim about "Objective Criticism" is that you can't do it. My evidence is basically the definition of subjective and objective. Subjective meaning "based on or influenced by personal feelings, tastes, or opinions." & Objective meaning "(of a person or their judgment) not influenced by personal feelings or opinions in considering and representing facts.", The definition of objective means that it can't be influenced by bias which is inherent to all criticism, as any judgement made on a piece of art's quality will always be influenced by the viewers personal taste & preferences in any given medium. The only objective statements you can give about a piece of art is what literally happens or is seen in the art (IE clone wars has the character Anakin Skywalker in it), while any judgement made on those events or characters are influenced by the perspective of the viewer, so even if the claim is backed up by textual evidence, given the nature of critique, it cannot be a fact as the perspective on it will change based on the person.

    • @pontiusporcius8430
      @pontiusporcius8430 4 роки тому

      Referring back to my macross example. I could hold the opinion that the humor in that scene is cringey and that the way the story achieves its goals is stupid, but I would not be able to say that the scene lacks measurable and objective impact on the text. For even if I did not like the text, I would have to admit that it is a crucial component in setting up a plot development that effects the outcome of the series. To give an example of a scene that is important in a movie I don't like. In xxx: The Return of Xander cage, there is a scene in the first act where the hot subcontinental lady talks with Donny Yen about her doubts of the plan to blackmail the world with a macguffin, it is designed to foreshadow her eventual alliance with Xander cage and his gaggle of numbskulls. Without that scene, her willingness to listen to cage upon his infiltration of yen's island paradise and her eventual choice to help him isn't set up and makes less practical sense. I concede it as an important scene, which serves as a doorway into mutual understanding on the scene so differing opinions can reason on it's impact, execution, creativity, and eventually find reasoned assessments on its quality.

    • @Bboy10110
      @Bboy10110 4 роки тому

      @@pontiusporcius8430 I never said that scenes aren't important or that they don't affect a text. All I'm saying is that an objective critique on a text is impossible. you aren't critiquing the story in your example, you're just giving a description on what happened in a scene & how it effected the text, which is more-so a synopsis rather than a critique. As a critique requires a judgement on the quality of the test as a whole, as in the fact that you don't like the movie "xxx: The Return of Xander cage", which is an opinion, and then you went on to talk about the plot of the movie, a bad movie can do good story telling, but whether or not the movie is bad & whether or not a certain scene in particular is good or not is subjective.
