Drinker should have told Ben, “That’s all I’ve got for today. Go away now.”
💯
💯
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Goawww awaayyy noaaaww
😂😂😂
ben shoul’ve finished the interview with: “thats all I had to ask you about that… go away now” 🤣🤣🤣
so.... how did he watch Dune on his phone before he saw it in the theatre? 🤨🤣
So the drinker is more entertaining and handsome than the majority of men in Hollywood 😂
GO AWAAAAY NOWWWWW!!!!
The Creator was terrible and didn’t make any money. That’s not a good example of good movie making.
Blumhouse is a far better example. Everything they produce doesn’t cost near $100 million and almost all not all of their films have made profit. It’s smart movie making.
He didn’t say it was a good movie.
The Critical Drinker is, at this point, the only film reviewer I trust.
Movie Cynic and Filmento also have some pretty good chops, but Critical Drinker is my favorite.
Facts theres a few others too, Chris gore n company. filmento and the Cynic.
Jeremy jahns is still pretty good and a fair bit more family friendly... But yeah.
@@LeviathanVIII Yeah thats who i meant forgot his full name. and they short and to the point.
I listen to Dave Cullen as well, but that's it.
Love Ben and Critical Drinker getting together
❤❤
It is a parring we didn't know we needed.
Yeah they really seem to have hit it off.
I’m hoping that he will be helping the Daily Wire improve on their films. On his first movie, he said it was good overall but could use improvement.
The urgently unimportant alcoholic
Keep them collaborations coming Ben and drinker
Tenet was super smart and relatively well executed. I guess I'm one of the free who appreciated it.
@@PLK-bw5uc yes let's get Ben Shapiro on EFAP lol
Therapist: Critical Drinker without sunglasses isn't real, he can't hurt you.
Ben Shapiro:
My husband said, "that guy sounds like Drinker." And I was like, "it IS Drinker." And he did a double take. 😂
He's strangely quite handsome.
@@bluerobin7051You should watch some of his early videos. Many men ripen like wine, while women ripen like fish. It's not fair, but I didn't make the rules.
@@YourLocalCopiumDealervery true
@@YourLocalCopiumDealer
It is fair: Women dominate the youth while men dominate the old age. Both look okay in middle age.
It's perfectly balanced.
The team we never knew we needed
Go Away Now! ;)
BELIEVE THAT
The far right always find each other!
@@colors6692 stop liking you’re own comment. Nobody is far right here
@@elcid9054 Honestly the term "far right" has been thrown around so much over time that it has lost all meaning, just like "racist" or "fascist." Let's just press forward and do what we know to be correct, and not let these meaningless labels dissuade us for even a second.
I love the rapport between Drinker and Ben. You've got to do more things together in the future.
I thought they looked uncomfortable. Maybe it's the way they're sitting. I'd like to see them in a more comfortable setting.
Also the Critical Drinker, I believe, works out of Scotland so doing this in person and face to face is impractical and, to be honest, the split screen, side by side Vlog style is becoming tiresome. It's refreshing to see two people talk to one another on person like this again.
@@ScottCleve33Ben Shapiro is naturally uncomfortable. Who wouldn't be thiugh after selling their soul . Ben Shapiro is trash now.
The fact that Barbie is gonna win more awards than Oppenheimer shows where our society is at.
The should all lose to 'The Holdovers', though.
You need to watch more movies if Oppenheimer and Barbie is all you can talk about.
Oppenheimer isn't the best
@@mwangi10I mentioned those 2 because they are the ones up for the most awards. What movies are you talking about?
Yeah, Oppenheimer is a serious film about serious things and Barbie is a comedy.
That means Oppenheimer is automatically more important and worthy and anyone who likes Barbie better is bad and wrong and ruining society.
Seriously, it’s just a movie. Relax
Golden Globes doesn't agree.
Just a friendly reminder that Ben's wife is a doctor
You don't say?
go away now
The Drinker is a global treasure. BELIEVE THAT!
these should be waaaaaay longer, the drinker has so much to say about the movie situation we find ourselves in. hopefully you have him on for longer discussions.
it is one session chopped up. each part will be just long enough to justify the add break. maybe they had an interaction unwieldy enough to justify 2^^. we will see
You should check out CD's other channel, Critical Drinker After Hours. He has hours-long discussions with several guests. He's had a few guests you might not expect because they're not known for film reviews: Nick Rekieta and recently Shadiversity, for example.
@@rickh9396 I'm subbed, I love the content, that's why I suggested it.
“In the future, entertainment will be randomly generated!”
-Veggietales
It's the ultimate paradox that the technology needed to make a movie is cheaper than ever before, with professional-grade video cameras and all the editing, audio-development, and post-processing software needed to produce a movie available on the general consumer market, and yet the biggest studios feel fine just splurging absurd quantities of money at films that could be produced for a quarter of the budgets they are throwing at them.
The problem with current technology for movie making is that is simply is not as good looking as 35mm. Digital cameras and digital screens are ok for home but not for a Theater.
@@Art-is-craft Gotta get rid of the woke filters too (aka The Netflix Effect) - that makes everything look like you're wearing sunglasses.
I personally though prefer more practical effects than CGI. Also what about A.I? Is Hollywood ever going to use that? Is that Daily Wire going to ever do that and screw over their actors and writers? I mean, that would be stupid: imagine paying five bucks for a movie ticket for a movie that costed less than that to make. Also what are these higher ups in these companies going to use all their money for now that they use A.I instead of real human actors and writers and production team? Spend it on even more A.I generated art and music and film?
You're distracted Ben, the Lord has been calling for you. He's asking you to come into his kingdom, son. Please answer his call.
I think it might be the reason it is that bad now I guess because you don't need talented people anymore only business people
I’ve been a fan of the drinker for a while now, mainly because he gives honest input, is honest about any biases he may have. I’ve come to trust his critiques. He recommended “Sisu”, so I checked it out and really enjoyed it. It was simply entertaining, with subdued dialogue, a great concept with good action. Think Rambo First Blood meets Commando meets the Equalizer.
I watched, "Twelve Angry Men", again last night. I don't think it cost 200 million to produce, but I kinda liked it. "My Man Godfrey", "My Girl Friday", "To Kill a Mocking Bird", "Of Mice and Men", "The Grapes of Wrath", the 1956 "Moby Dick", the 1939 "Stagecoach", "High Noon", "The Last Picture Show", "Some Like it Hot", "The Oxbow Indecent", "Top Hat" and "It's a Wonderful Life" are examples of the kinds of movies that could still be made without spending a lot of money and still make a profit.
I think if you start with a good script that tells and interesting story, you are off to a good start.
It seems today they never 'start' with and ending and work their way to it cleverly - instead they jump in with both feet - no plan except a direction and say 'Action'!
@@ravenstone366 "Primer" from 2004 was an excellent movie, cost the guy apparently $7000 to make. No FX, no stars, it just relied on a really good plot, and convincing dialogue.
One of my favorite movies was Nobody in 2021. It had a budget of about 21 million but it was exciting as could be and I wish they'd do a sequel.
Godzilla Minus One is the best movie of the year IMHO
Yes! Way underrated movie, who knew Bob Odenkirk could kick ass like that? It had a great blend of humor and action though, a lot of action comedies try too hard to be funny, it seems forced. But the humor in Nobody just kinda came naturally.
@@theywouldnthavetocensormei9231 Grateful to see there's someone else in the world who thinks that most comedies try too hard and fall flat. I'd rather watch a good movie that has some funny moments. My favorite example is Lethal Weapon 2. Both the toilet bomb scene and Leo Getz were well executed, adding just enough comedic relief to complement the action and police drama.
Nobody is honestly my favorite movie to come out in all of the 2020s. Such an entertaining and memorable movie.
Happy New Year to you both. I remember messaging Ben & The Daily Wire a few years back to suggest a connection between Critical Drinker & Ben in sone shape or form. I’m sure my suggestion has nothing to do with your guys chatting. However, the fact you are makes me VERY happy. The times they are a changing & revolutionaries like you are making a difference. Putting faces to the words that NEED saying. Hollywood can’t ignore it any longer. Happy New Year to you all x And Happy New Year to anyone reading this who feels like we’re in the same club. Big hugs & kisses xx ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💋💋💋💋💋💋🐈🐈⬛🐈🐈⬛🐈🐈⬛🐈🐈⬛🐈🐈⬛🐈🐈⬛🕺🏿🗽🌊👨🏿🦯🌋🥷🏿🫒 xxx
I would have given you a Like . . . if you had given me just one more emoji.
I've been watching the critical drinker for a little while now and this is the first time I've actually seen his face lol
Bring Critical Drinker to Daily Wire full time.
They’ve got a sports show, give us an entertainment show.
Interesting because Knowles is a Yale trained actor, and Klavan was a writer on the wire.
Maybe throw them onto Open Bar?
Let’s keep our fingers crossed
TEN3T was brilliant. You just have to watch it backwards, hanging upside down, out of the corner of your eye to fully grasp all of the details is all.
😂
Somebody actually uploaded the entire movie on UA-cam, but in reverse.
I’d tell people if you seen Momento (which is what inspired T E N E T) it definitely can help to understand the film a little better
@@sk8mafia214 memento and tenet were both made by the same guy though
@@joeyk107 I know that, that’s why I mentioned Momento
Godzilla minus one is the perfect example of spending efficiently and writing a beautiful story.
Love ben and the Drinker 2 of the most thoughtful and articukate peeps on the internet!
Articulate?
Thoughtful?
Peeps?
Two?
Internet?
I believe that due to Hollywood’s widely exposed disgusting ‘secrets’ as well as actor’s political stances, a significant number of movie patrons have found other means of entertainment.
So you’re mad at Hollywood because of their disgusting secrets, but you still support Republican politicians?
Sure bud
I know i have.
I always hoped that this collab would happen, I’m glad they’re keeping it up, and I hope it stays that way.
I kind of wish they had the Drinker do his "Go away now" catchphrase at the end.
Perfect example of all this is the Jurassic Park franchise. I'll always remember seeing the original in 1993 when I was 10, my brother was 8. The old domed theater we saw it in shook because they turned the sound up. It still feels like the best film in the franchise by far.
Craziest thing is, you didn't even get a good look at a dinosaur until about 45 minutes in! Similar to Jaws, you built a great film on suspense and character development through a great script, not solely special effects. CGI should enhance a film if it's necessary, not prop it up like a crutch.
Great Video - The reasoning that limitless budgets make for bad decisions. Also directors being promoted without proving themselves with previous second or third unit productions,.
The matador of metaphors and Shapiro…awesome team up!
Ok, hear me out: Ben, Critical Drinker, and Jordan Peterson. And three bottles of Whiskey.
What are Ben and Jordan going to drink?...😅
I'm surprised and amazed at Ben and the Drinker, but love it. Two articulate well reasoned people talking on the internet....such a rarity.
2:29
He destroyed Thor's reputation in MCU
Thor became a joke after Thor Ragnarok
Absolutely love the Drinker by himself but enjoying the collaboration with Ben. Because of the Drinker I watched The Menu and shared it with friends and we all thought.. WOW. To bad there aren’t more movies like this
What a great film. Made me want a cheeseburger and s'mores!
Cool crossover
What! Critical Drinker. Never expected this. Love it!
He's been on already.
@@evanray8413 yeah same location. My guess is they filmed a number of segments and drip feed them. Good stuff though
I thought this was on Drinker’s channel, so I was really confused by Ben’s ad read, lol.
I love the difference between them. A fairly mild Jewish guy drinking presumably coffee and a gloriously gruff Scottish guy drinking whisky. Yet they rarely overly disagree or if they do it's respectively.
It seems Ben Shapiro's trying desperately to hold on to views since Trump is gone.. How sad.
It’s only a matter of weeks before Kimmel hands Greta Gerwig an Oscar. It’s written in woke stone.
A lot of people liked her movie and it did very well financially. Why do you think she shouldn’t get an Oscar?
@@Peridactyloptrixdoesn’t matter what self-congratulatory pats the back the wokesters will arrange this year to enrich themselves further
@@Zod741 so, you can’t say why the movie shouldn’t get an Oscar and you have no reason to believe it definitely will. But you’ve assumed it will and you’re mad about that?
Lol
Must suck being angry about nothing all the time…
@@Peridactyloptrixnope just pointing out the obvious don’t get your panties in a bunch over it
@@Zod741 so you just brought it up for absolutely no reason? Lol. Sure whatever
Did you know grass is green?
this is such a great idea, these two really work well together.
Two of my fave UA-camrs. - An unexpected, but pleasant surprise.
❤I'll leave the gospel here:
So, how many lies have you told in your life?
How many hours of p*** have you watched?
Have you ever taken anything that didn't belong to you?
How many times have you used God's holy name as a cuss word?
How many times have you held a grudge in your heart?
How do you get to hell?
Very simple: claim that you're innocent.
How do you get to heaven?
Very simple: Admit that you're not Innocent, you're guilty and ask for mercy.
hell.
Ask him for mercy.
His name is Jesus. It's as simple as this, The Ten Commandments are called the moral law. You and I broke God's laws. Jesus paid the fine.
The fine is death.
Ezekiel 18:20 -
"The soul who sins shall die."
That's why Jesus had to die on the cross for our sins. This is why God is able to give us Mercy.
Option A.
You die for your own sins.
Option B.
Ask for mercy and accept that Jesus died on the cross for you.
❤
**Honest questions are welcome.**
..........
Big budget means nothing without a great story. Look at some of the classics, they were great because of a compelling story, not (necessarily) because of a budget. You left the theater feeling wonderful. The only good films, as you've said, are the ones where there's a brand such as Ghostbusters, Top Gun, Mission Impossible and Indiana Jones (yes, I liked the latest Indy film). The best film of the year (IMO) was Sound of Freedom, which of course, was based on a true story so it doesn't answer the question about creativity. The irony is that today's filmmakers were brought up during the great Spielbergian era. We need another generation of George Lucas and Steven Spielbergs ASAP!
So many great stories waiting to be filmed --just in the sf genre there are tons of books that would make great movies(e.g. books by Gene Wolfe, Ian Banks, Neal Stephenson, etc, etc) but the filmmakers keep going back to the same well.
The first thing I noticed about Oppenheimer was take away the protagonist and I was basically watching 'Trumbo'. A lot of focus on the McCarthy-ism.
There's no future for Hollyweird
Ben and Will, This is an awesome collab! 😁
How on earth can those movie decision makers think that remakes are the 'safe bet' when there have been so many flops?
Because of how many successes there have been
he looks way different than I imagined
This needs to be a regular thing. The Drinker is great.
Disney of today is in no way related to Disney of the 1930s to early 2000s. Frozen and Moana were the last good Disney films. They have screwed with my childhood by adding crap to Star Wars.
As a fellow Scot, twice removed and now happily ensconced in Australia, I still love to hear the Scottish accent especially when it belongs to such a down to earth, reasoned thinker. That paired with one of my favorite US podcasters/personalities is a joy to behold! This is an accurate take on what is happening in the film world today.
FNAF and Godzilla minus one proved you can make a movie on a small(ish) budget and still make bucket loads of money.
Squad for life. Ben and the Drinker. Love them both! ❤
That is not what I thought Critical Drinker looked like 🤨🤨🤨
1917 is another film that was great to see in the theater.
I'm so surprised at what critical drinker looks like, because he sounds like such a grumpy old neck beard 😆
Ben Shapiro? My opinion of the Critical Drinker just went through the floor.
Right!! I was so off abt this guy. He supports genocide
Couldn't agree more as a Nolan fan Tenet SUCKED.
Me when i lie
Yeah these are series of videos I never knew we needed. Please keep these coming.
While this kind of a collaboration is cool, this video is far too short to dive into any kind of an interesting conversation. This was literally: "Remakes bad, Hollywood needs more mid-budget films" and Ben replying "Yeah, my favorite director is Nolan." "Well, be seeing ya."
I’d love to hear how you two guys met 🙏🏽
Great. The most respectable reviewer and the biggest fake-conservative grifter.
1:30 That would make sense if they wanted to make money, but forcing DEI wokeness at the expense of story and genuine entertainment tends to prevent this - more and more as audiences become more cynical, and apprehensive about trusting Disney to not inject yet more of this rubbish into an otherwise promising movie.
So, do you think that there’s a guy who goes round to the writers at Disney and prevents them from working on story/character development so that they can write the woke part of the movie? Why do you think those two things are mutually exclusive?
@@Peridactyloptrix Not as such, no. I think there's a guy Iger who hires agenda driven woke people who in turn hire woke fanfic writers who couldn't tell a good story from a carbuncle to write the entire movie, and gay it up or woke it up or leftisize it up or any combination thereof and insert themselves in as protagonist as much as possible and story be damned, new bloated product - and it's not just Disney; Disney just has the most exposed names and faces to the big budget flops that no-one's interested in trusting them enough anymore to go see - not even the activist woke set.
@@jiminverness you seriously think that Bob Iger is more interested in feminism than he is in making money? Really?
Because I think that’s an insane thing to believe
@@Peridactyloptrix _"you seriously think that Bob Iger is more interested in feminism than he is in making money? Really?"_
Umm, no. I don't think Bob Iger is remotely interested in feminism. Wokeness, DEI, the Alphabet Community, etc., yeah. That he's been interested in.
Iger's interested in making money for himself, but he hasn't cared about making money for Disney for quite a few years now.

Disgusting advertisement in between the video to ruin the flow, I skipped the lot of it to write this, now back to the video
Ah yes, the failed actor and the failed screenwriter complaining about the industry they couldn't get into.
Ben Shapiro, AND THE DRINKER?! Instantly clicked!
this was a bad ass crossover LOVED IT 🤝
I was pleasantly surprised by The Creator also Wonka. We need to keep the Shapiro and Drinker collaboration going.
Big fan of the Critical Drinker!👌
Ben is so bitter that Hollywood thought he sucks 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Seriously, keep the crossovers coming when you have the content for them. Great stuff! Just don't force it.
Tenet was a little all over the place, but the worst part was the backward masking "musical" score, which left me with a pounding headache by the time I stumbled out of the theatre.
More of this please. Speak to Nerdrotic - he’s in Texas
Amen 🙏😀
There is NO REASON a film should cost 300+ M..... That is just INSANE and negligent! We see time and time again absolute masterpieces come out by small studios costing under 50mil.
And they will be remembered AND watched long after the memory of Captain Marvel is dead and gone lol "Creator- BANGER, Godzilla-1, BANGER, John Wick1, BANGER"
I mean don't get me wrong, Remakes/reboots are 100% possible.... They just NEVER EVER do them right! This whole idea of "fixing it for a modern audience" just needs to be thrown out the window completely!!! like WTF does that even mean!?!?!? the STORY should always come first!!! but they are all nothing but agenda driven with boring ass filler and memberberries. They completely rip it to pieces and miss the heart and soul of the original EVERY time they try it. Disney has NO depth everything is superficial. has to be explained to you 3 times and then shown . then explained 2 more times. like what? all the while moving from sitting one place to go sit and cry in another.
Great friends in the making.
Oppenheimer was boring. There, I said it.
You guys are both amazing!! I will say the only movies I actually enjoyed this year are Super Mario, John Wick Chapter 4, Mission Impossible, Oppenheimer, and Killers of the Flowers Moon.
It's not a complete wasteland out there. But God knows we have to be a lot more careful what we choose to watch.
Love the Drinker. Love the Shapiro. Keep at it, gents.
😂 Ben appreciates your hard earned money being sent overseas while pretending he cares about America 😂
Ask him how he feels about the Browning of Israel.
Two distinctly awesome, lads.
Have a prosperous New Year
Creativity is dead in Hollywood, but it’s alive and well in Japan. Godzilla minus one was a triumph that breathed new life into an older franchise, and the boy and the heron was a beautiful animated movie
Did you really just use a new sequel to a nearly 80 year-old movie franchise as an example of innovation and creativity?
Bro…
@@Peridactyloptrix yes i did. as i said, it breathed new life into an existing franchise. It was a different take on the classic Godzilla movie.
@@kevinboudreaux7860 right…
But when Disney takes a classic movie that people love and tries a new take on it, you people call it “woke garbage” and lament the lack of creativity in movies or sometimes threaten to boycott it
@@Peridactyloptrix apples and oranges. Minus one was a character driven movie that was set in a similar universe but definitely not a direct remake of any existing Godzilla movie. Also they don’t have to hide behind calling the audience racist or sexist due to having a terrible script
Goddamn, this is so mind boggling to watch the Drinker talk with Shapiro.
I'll watch it while having my morning cup of coffee with a mug from the Drinker's online store.
"Nah, It'll Be Fine" it says. Truly a motto worth living by.
BAD writers breed bad movies and no profits.
I think streaming is another thing that isn't factored it. A streaming service costs about $20 a month these days, now the movies that I only have a passing interest to see on a slow weekend costs easily $50-60 to go see as a couple or $100 or more as a family of four. Instead you wait a few months and view it on streaming. It is only the great event movies that make close to a billion at the box office.
Ben Shapiro should debate Norman Finkelstein. I’m sure he can win.
CD makes the comment that creativity isn’t dead in Hollywood, it’s just not incentivized anymore because it’s safer to make a sequel. Is it safer based on the last two years of box office returns? Going back to the well has failed miserably. I think it’s time for originality, from a purely business standpoint.
It's safer in the minds of the little peons with ties up a the top floor. Don't try to anchor Hollywood with logic and reality.
Go away now
This is one of the Best Collabs that needs to happen over and over again 🎉
Drinker without the sunglasses and slurred speech threw me for a moment. His eyes are blue?? 😱😂😂
HE HAS EYES??
Calling a movie bad because it's "woke and political" isn't legitimate criticism and it's disturbing how many people think it is. Your all snowflakes.
This has been an unexpected and most entertaining collaboration. Keep it coming. Also...Say the line, Will!
The future is a decade of absolute shit until the capital dries up and movie studios are either forced to get their acts together or sell out to Netflix. Best-case-scenario is some streaming company totally reinvents the wheel when it comes to the movie watching experience and the concept of a "movie" completely changes to adhere to that framework, and then who knows what that brings us.
Ah yes, the Critical Drinker's grift comes full circle. Well done, well done.
have these two become best friends?
Awesome! Just AWESOME! Two of my favorite "thinkers" together. Do it again mates.
I like the drinker just fine. But dude, if people are gonna talk about the state of modern cinema, can they at least have conversations that don’t focus solely on mainstream shit that literally everyone knows about. Finding NEW films that are great is not much harder than trashing what we already know is trash.
But trashing things people already hate is all these people know how to do. Negative content generates more income. They’re here to make money, not to improve anything
@@Peridactyloptrix very true, unfortunately
