When I think of POTC I think of At World's End, not the previous 2.

It's a horror movie, one of the best.

My eyes opened wide when I saw Flying Tiger planes in the trailers. It was in my eyes like a war movie set in a Metropolis from another dimension. It was a mixed metaphor wish list of the way things could be on screen for certain imaginative "nerds" that feel trapped in our own dimension. Another person wrote "nerds" here before me and I get their point. I understood what the different elements in the film were alluding to. It came out of left field and for that reason I highly respected it. True creativity rarely has mass appeal and it does not have to be "complex". Too bad. I loved the movie. That said I don't agree with some of your "film studies" analysis. I don't think you should apologize for it either. Some of the reasons I enjoyed the movie is because I read a lot about WW II when I was in Elementary. This movie has a fun "intellectual" appeal to people who know why the director added certain elements and put them together. It makes sense if you know what to look at and focus your imagination on, so you may almost enter the Sky Captain universe. It's the most intellectual anti-intellectual thing I've ever seen. I never knew it was groundbreaking in terms of technology etc. I'm glad I know it now. Thanks for the video.

I loved SKy Captain and never understood why it failed.

I haven't subscribed for even a year yet but I remember about 6 months ago finding and binging all your content and just enjoying everything you've made. I know I'm not the only one who understands when you need to take a break. This is something you started because it was a passion of yours, one of the reasons I was so drawn to your content to begin with, and being forced to make content and having deadlines, even ones that are self imposed, can cause that passion to dwindle. So take.your time, and when you find you're ready we'll be here.

Oh now that's a bad miss...

Had this and the country Christmas sequel as a kid lol. Always a crazy reminder that my first crush was Blitzen the reindeer 😂

why hasnt someone adapted this into a stage musical? would become a huge hit

I saw this in the 80s at Fairview Elementary, Columbus, MS and have spent 30+ years thinking I imagined it. I googled it today (23 Dec 2024) and took 30 mins of scouring videos to find this! I’M NOT CRAZY!!!!!

I love Gerbert ❤

Yep, he's especially cruel for not giving credit where due to Bad News Tour clearly giving Tap the mockumentary angle as they were just metal hating dorks before stealing that element showing he doesn't just copy the English accent.

I own it. I love it. Way ahead of it's time....

Keep in mind that Guest is a British-American citizen. It is probably a blend of both brands of comedy humor.

so in china when i was young, someone not only manage to license beakman world to Chinese TV station and also dub it, i only saw beakman so i vote beakman

You said that Don and Herb from Beakman's World gave you Statler and Waldorf vibes. But there is one very important difference. Don and Herb actually like Beakman's World, and they say it's their favorite show. Statler and Waldorf are classic hecklers and often state that it's like a torture to watch the show.

19:28 The Cannibal Island in Deadman's Chest -- Awesome !

Your review of Cop Out is Abysmal!!

This movie was the first VHS tape my family ever owned. I watched it countlessly when i was young and then forgot about it. I watched it again a week ago and i had such a blast. Thanks for talking about it !

I'm so torn on this film. So many elements are exceptional, and so many are awful. The editing of the film betrays the early 2000s origin -- it's manic, cutting from one image to the next before they have a moment to settle, and it completely clashes with the classic serial atmosphere they're going for. Every shot looks fake, and not in a good or old fashioned way. The digital effects and bloom make everything look smudgy and reminds you more of mid-2000s commercials or music videos than film serials. I say this as somebody who loves pulp and old serials -- the film is both charming and tiring to watch. BUT. Underneath all those ugly effects and bloom is spectacular lighting and strong shot compositions. The actors all do well with a script that hits the pedestrian lows and grand highs of the stories that inspired it. The soundtrack is exactly what was necessary -- sounding like a classic hero's march while also being new. Beyond that, it's a daring film -- what it did was simultaneously nostalgic and deeply bold. The director makes choices that many today imitate, and the film has such a unique design flair that even twenty years later, there's no other film like it. It's a film that would be a prime candidate for a remake with a slightly steadier editing hand, now that technology has improved so much. It's a diamond in the rough, and despite all my reservations I wish there were more of it and they'd gotten more tries at the concept.

Clerks is considered - Existential . Also, in Clerks 3 - Dante should have been the one who had the Heart Attack and decides to make a movie since Kevin based Dante after himself...

Arthur christmas and klaus are the only two xmass movies i care about

They should not have got rid of Rosario Dawson. That was a HORRIBLE decision. It puts a giant shadow on Clerks 2. I wish that Randall had more compassion that Elias communicated to him at the hospital (without him needing to be told it). That would've been an a better ending to show their bond before passing without it being last minute. However, the movie helped me deal with grief and potentially losing my father so i liked that aspect.

Now I have to watch this.. I loved Rocky Horror Picture Show... when I first saw it on Free TV (should out to Channel 69 WFMZ) in my bedroom as a 12 year old! 😂

"I don't kill anything, I just go hunting." That's just hiking, John.

Such a woke analysis

Gerbert has a "Charlie Brown cringey token chump" aura about him.

Are we going to talk about how the Mouse very well be a reincarnation of their father?

I'm one of the names on that patreon list. I joined a couple months ago, I think around October,but I've been watching since January of last year after watching The Dudley dumpling episode. You've been a peek Into a childhood that Dodged me completely. I think I've mentioned this a few times but I grew up jewish, and our art and even children's media tends to look very different than a lot of the Christian ones you cover. Watching you has been like an archaeologist uncovering a past that I never knew existed for so many children out there. And you helped me find stuff like the glitch art scene and everything is terrible, the latter of which has become one of my favorite kooky little art collectives. I'm looking forward to next year. Slower output, yes, but what you've described as ambitious and interesting. And it certainly makes me want to pick up a puppet and a camera and do some weird stuff about old childhood tapes that I have in my garage somewhere. PS: do you have a PO box? If so there's something I want to send you at some point. Totally understand if you don't want to receive packages from subscribers though.

I've enjoyed your channel. Have fun and good luck in your new projects.

I've been watching your content for about a year now and I've enjoyed all of it. I'll be here whenever you decide to return. Cheers!

Apologies to comment again but I'm just reaching the end. Rest assured my bell will reman on. We both understand the strange wonder of VHS and the totally unique brand of fear their contents can engender. While I love the sleazy christian kids tapes, I'm sure you've found many tapes that contain dark, infinitely more terrifying things. Artifacts, crudely chained against ribbons of decaying tape, like the last crestfallen ghosts of a time long passed. The depths of VHS are murky and unknowable but I hope you can find inspiration in viewing and sharing tapes more of this nature. It actually sounds like that might be more in tune with your original vision. I'll be around but I feel like I must say thanks for all your hard work so far!

I'm so happy you're not quitting. This is one of my favourite channels. I am sure I have said this before, but you are criminally underrated. Thank you for everything you have given us so far. Looking forward to future videos.

Beakman isnt a dip shit in real life so..... yeah Beakman.

My cousin had one of these tapes and we watched it all the time and absolutely loved it. I didn’t remember them being so creepy 😂

Also: this was put under my last comment. I took it out and slapped it here, by itself, since the tone is very different. Hope you read it…. Thanks for being genuine. I wish I would have found your channel years ago. You’re a great host, just perfect levels of fun, sarcasm, absurdity and seriousness, when each tone is appropriate. I’m glad you have a job that you deserve. I feel bad about not donating a thing so far. No problem here doing things I enjoy for work (except not often enough right now), and I finally have one credit card that I can actually use. Unlike you, I spent far too much time, in my 50 years, f’cking off, stuck in my own world of birds, butterflies and pretty flowers. Once again, I jumped off the ride, and vow to act maturely; not sure how much on track I’ll stay this time around. I have no clue why I just wrote all this to you. As stupid as this sounds, I got a little bummed out as soon as I read the title/ description of your video in my feed. Had two (things) this month that jolted me back to reality, and such, so moody I am. I’ll stop being selfish here. Do what you think is right. It all makes perfect sense. Put out some more great content when you’re ready. I look forward to it. In the meantime, please don’t do anything irrational…like deleting any videos, especially ‘Nathaniel the Grublet’. I love it, probably my favorite video on the channel. The future continues to grow more uncertain. If I can’t fall back to a little grublin’ to brighten the day, things would truly suck.

Wait, it was produced by Good Housekeeping? I hope this special is up to the same high standards,and ‘seal of approval’ as the colorful, full-page paintings featured in their magazine during World War Two. This is a tall order for a mere Christmas production, especially compared to the delightful ‘True Towel Tales: #1’ artwork featured in the August 1943 edition. Check it out online. Its full of American pride. For my gay brethren, nothing less than pure delight. It does exclude crocodiles, which, I guess I’m ok with.

Wow I had this

I’m happy to hear you’re taking the time you need to make the videos that really speak to you-more than anything else I love following UA-camrs who talk about what they love rather than chasing the algorithm. finding your channel has been a huge motivator for me in getting my own off the ground, I really admire your work and the sincerity with which you approach your reviews. hoping next year is a great year for your channel! 💙

21:50- 22:00 is some of the funniest christmas humour I've ever heard. I guess there are still some xmas sentiments that have not yet been written, and that is the REAL Christmas miracle! 🎄 🌲

I've been a viewer since the beginning, and I'm grateful to you for your work. When I see that you've got a new episode, if I don't have the time to see it right then, I save it for those moments when I need a video that is fun, nerdy, and interesting - especially when I just need a little escape. Thanks for that. By all means, please take care of yourself, spend time enjoying your life, and do your thing. I'll be here. I'll go back and watch the old stuff when I need it, and look forward to seeing your new episodes whenever they're ready. You only have one life, and only so much control over the things that hold sway over it, I'm glad that you're doing what you want to do. I will too.

i'm a relatively recent subscriber but i got so nervous going into this one that it would be the last video from this channel! i'm glad that isn't the case, and very glad you're going to be able to make time for yourself and other things you enjoy in the year to come :) i hope you take all the time you need and enjoy your life to the fullest!! also SO stoked about that possible pete & pete video, it feels like nobody talks about that show but it was my absolute favorite as a kid and i'd love to hear all your thoughts about it!

That Tang ad at the end of that tape reminds me of how some of the FHE releases of the classic Rankin/Bass Christmas specials have animated ads for Glade candles before and after the feature. I also have a DVD copy of Rudolph that plays a random Pillsbury sugar cookie commercial with the Doighboy right before the special. I can’t think of those specials without being reminded of poor quality scented candles and those cutout cookie dough logs with the cute pictures on them. Anyway, thank you so much for all of the wonderful and thoughtful videos you have released over the years, Corey. As a fellow former film school student, your reviews and video essays have inspired me and impacted how I approach vintage/children’s media, and I’ve been subscribed to your channel since you began covering those cursed Psalty tapes a few years ago. I’m excited to see the fascinating projects you’ll release someday, and I think a PC game review with your voice and video style would be super entertaining. I’ll miss you, Corey! Your friend, Antifearn

As a new subscriber in the past couple months and it would have been so sad if this was the only new vid I saw (but also hilarious) Thank you I already love your channel and I look forward to your new projects

Your channel is great. I found it from Corny, and I do hope that you can pivot your channel to something that works for you. Pete and Pete, yay!

I’ve been sick all week, and surely it’s not a coincidence that the day this is uploaded is when I’m on the mend! Love every single thing you do, Cory!

How interesting. Ive had a dream in 2017, around my birthday, approximately one year before i died, where i watched a movie of my life, beginning to end, and as people appeared in the "movie" they walked into the theatre, and as they left the film for good, they left the theatre too. The only one who stayed in there, for the entire film of my life, was the woman i love, who i never got to be with. We are friends, however we have never dated. That part of this video, where they were in the theatre, hit me in a piece of my heart i forgot was there.

I was bitterly disappointed in the film. It’s hard to say what wrong with it for me. They had a ray gun, but it looked like a toy. Everything was…brown. It looked fuzzy. flying craft that moves like a bat, that’s cool and they are using a Warhawk …it a 2 seater and turn into a submarine. Warhawks don’t turn into submarines…yeah. I really wanted to love it.

That was beautiful! I really like your stuff, and I'll stay subscribed to see how things go with the new phase: Not Quite So Many Tapes, maybe?

UA-cam burnout is real, creative burnout is real. Take as much time as you need (or gift yourself as much time as you need). BTW did not know you were a Pete and Pete fan. Iggy Pop is on it, it's awesome!!!
