'And now that he's publicly established himself as a straight up domestic terrorist, Neo spends the rest of the series soaring over the city like a magical Osama bin Laden.' Just about choked to death on my morning coffee. Daniel O'Brien, you are a national comedic treasure.
The Wizard of Oz through the eyes of the "wicked" witch. Her sister is murdered, her inheritance is stolen, and then she's murdered in a home invasion by a gang consisting of a teenager, a terminator, a talking lion and a possessed scarecrow.
I just rewatched the entire Star Wars trilogy in order to calculate the proportion of characters who are Luke versus characters who are not Luke. It checks out, what Dan said.
I used the other math and according to it your clearly wrong. It actually spelled out wrong after the = sign. I'm still figuring out why but when I have finished I'll be sure to publish.
You should see "Star Wars - The blackened mantle" a recut and rewritten prequel trilogy. It is only one movie lasting almost 3 hours and it has a lot of minor and some major changes. And that is not mentioning how the dialogue is changed completely, they use japanese audio with english subtitles and they sync up names to provide an illusion. Anyway it is worth checking out, it was what the fans deserved, they even made the romance see bearable.
+Darla Lathan And the 3 Ninjas! Who I am told stopped "kicking back" and eventually "knuckled up" which I take to mean got into good colleges and respectable, lucrative careers in business, law and politics respectively.
to be fair, the "humans are basically pets compared to vulcans" isn't taking into account the extension of human lifespans into the future - bones lived until he was over 130 years old, at least, which is probably closer to the average human lifespan at the time. still shorter than a vulcan's, to be fair, but like... parrot short, as opposed to dog short.
I never could've imagined an exploding bowl of beans in a microwave would be an analogy used for a time paradox. Thank you, Daniel for adding that to my life and making it that much better.
What about any movie that has antagionists that just decide they hate the protagionist and will go out of their way to bully them just because they dont like their face or something? They must live seriously depressing lives if they are that obsessed with bullying some random person. It's just extremely lazy writing.
And The Atom Smashes Indeed, and Kingdom of Heaven pretty much has the same story. I'm starting to see that movie more as a comedy since its so silly that Guy randomly decides to hate Balian.
+The Onyx Eclipse Sonic's story is a little more clear in the comics. Mobius is earth in the future and there's talking animals. Egg Man is a brilliant scientist and also a communist or some kind of oppressive ruler who betrays the king and takes over. Sonic, being a teenage rebel with a need for speed decides to fight the man and overthrow the literal and figurative oppressive machines. That and he plays guitar and eats chili dogs.
But you missed Beauty and the Beast, the story of the town hero that goes on an epic journey to rescue the town beauty from a terrible monster. Only to end up getting murdered.
+Grainne Mhaol I noticed that too and then had to go back and double check - it is funny what your brain will pick up on, even for a split second. We observe a lot more than we realise and then our brain processes what it thinks is most important through the quickest. Obviously language is important to your brain.
I have a background in linguistics, which is probably why I'm a bit obsessive about spelling. Or perhaps it's because I'm a wee bit too in love with Bill and Ted movies.
It would have been too controversial for the 80s, but I wish Bill and Ted had stopped off at Moses on the mountain. Moses looks up, sees sunlight glinting off the chrome of the phone booth that creates what he thinks is a holy light, and he begs them for commandments to bring to the masses. Bill looks at Ted and they grin. Cut to Moses bringing down two stone tablets, onto which are carved the two commandments...
thats irrelevant. there is no difference in the life span of full Vulcan or half vulcan. the Leonard nemoy Spock in the new star trek movies came from 129 years in the 2009 star trek future. the young Spock in that is 30 years old so the old Spock in that one would be about 159 years old. vulcans can life 200 years or more. so there shouldn't be a big difference between half vulcans and full vulcan life spans if any at all being they are so technologically advanced
Maybe those guards Neo kills are just NPCs and not connected to actual people. In most online games, you have avatars controlled by real people, but there are also NPC guards all over the place. It's possible those guards respawn as soon as Neo leaves the room. Morpheus: "Remember, if they don't have a name floating over their health bar, cap 'em!!"
Regular slobs, just like you were, that you have to kill, before they become evil Agent Smiths and kill you. Sucks to be a regular slob in the Matrix on both sides of the fence.
+Warriorsatheart True, even if you think the leader is batshit crazy, you're getting free Karate skills. When shit goes south just leave and if they come after you for betrayal, pull a Batman Begins on them.
"The species equivalent of that excitable, humping, reactionary beast that barks at a strong wind" ^The single greatest summary of William Shatner's Kirk that I have ever read.
+PetLoverSpy M. Cute mermaids, sexy mermaids, TERRIFYING mermaids. Mermaids that don't care about humanity, mermaids that rescue humans from drowning, mermaids that make it their life purpose to drown humans, and mermaids that sell coffee. There really is a full episode sittin in there!
Pirates of the Caribbean, Harry Potter, mythology, Starbucks, and, yeah, The Little Mermaid. Sexy enough to lure sailors to their deaths, man. Sexy doesn't mean fucking would be a good idea or even fun. A truth that applies to sexy humans as well.
The Death Star wasn’t just a space station, though - it was a government office building. I think it’s more equivalent to an attack on Parliament or the Pentagon (or maybe the 1943 attack on Pearl Harbor). But imagine if the Pentagon had a surface area greater that New York City. If someone attacked the ISS, it would be a tragedy, but ultimately astronauts are just ... figureheads. The government would recover. The employees on the Death Star are essential workers.
Wait, so when Alex keeps dying in his videos and his lifespan gets listed as 2002-2015, Cracked is really just telling us that he's the office dog? ...I'm surprisingly okay with this.
of course if time is a predestined loop the first half of your argument is invalid. If they learned something they shouldn't have it's clearly fine, because it happened. If Billy the kid learned he died at 23, he's still gonna die at 23, whatever happens
+Sam Wilson Which means he either died despite the future knowledge, or possibly because of it. A common trope used is that because you know that you die a certain way, you maneuver to avoid it, but all that maneuvering ends up being the thing that gets you killed. Thus, Bill and Ted killed Joan, Billy, Lincoln, etc.
+Nabiya Ri Also depends on whether you were originally assassinated in a theater. For all we know, all this time travelling gave Lincoln encouragement that the Civil War was the right thing to do. Perhaps if Bill and Ted didn't kidnap him, he never would have committed Union forces to attack the South in the first place.
Yea, but the thing youre forgetting about the matrix is that Morpheus's first lesson for Neo was "If you arent one of us, you're one of them" meaning he has to assume that any one of those "innocent humans" is a potential agent. Gunning down all those people isn't really bad because anyone still plugged into the matrix is basically an agents body to snatch.
Samuel Pérez García Did you read my post, friend? Every person that they havent converted is a potential agent, EVERY SINGLE ONE. That was his FIRST LESSON. There's no such thing as innocent, you'd have to be talkin babies, children, and elderly for me to really care about this fictional world. Security guards are actually in danger of terrorists doing that for real. So shouldnt they be aware of any life threatening risks?
blacktee31 I did read your post. What's even better, I have seen the Matrix and know exactly what Morpheus was saying. Neo did what he had to do. He still killed innocent people.
Samuel Pérez García I dont consider them innocent. We know nothing about those people, babies are innocent, children even, security guards? To call them innocent takes a leap in logic because we know nothing about their background. They're just blank faces.
The average human in the star trek universe lives to 120 with some, Dr. Mcoy for example, lived to be like 137. So a Vulcan lifespan isn't that far off from a human.
lets not even get into the fact that comparing a dog/pet relationship to humans and an alien civilization communicating is super off. Just because they live longer doesn't mean they simply don't understand that they're pretty much our intellectual equals and we arguable have a stronger in military force... We don't go to war with our dogs or have pacts and building ships with them.
Watch the end of the more recent Aladdin movie. Dan intentionally withholds information to further his points. I mean it's fine because this is comedy, but you can't base a logical argument on just what he's saying. Or yes do that. There are an infinite number of parallel truths going on here. Screw it
My biggest problem with the Matrix why don't they just imagine some badass futuristic nonlethal weapons in the computer world Clearly they can use whatever gun and vehicle they want, (a minigun armed helicopter,) so why can't they just load their virtual guns with some nonlethal bullets. Hell there from the future so they probably have some pretty advance nonlethal weapons or if they insist on killing people they certainly have future weapons more lethal than anything from the simulation 90s had access to.
+Joshua Moody The Matrix can re-adjust the memories of the people attached to it. Which means the survivors of Neo's rampages won't remember a thing about it. And if Neo killed your best friend the matrix would adjust your memory, too, so you wouldn't remember ever having a best friend in the first place. But I give you, those whom they kill are dead and stay that way.
well Kirk was Spock's t'hy'la and they both considered their relationship to be the most important one so the terrifying aspect isn't that he lost 'a dog' it's that he lost the other half of his soul and spend most of his life without that part of himself.
Judging from a quick glance through this comment section I conclude that the normal population has just as many people, who are overly obsessed with what they perceive as correct pronounciation, as what is referred to as anime fandom.
Funny thing with Lincoln is he very easily could have 100% known about his assassination due to his numerous nightmares and premonitions, which could be explained as him coping with Bill and Ted's intrusion
I always wondered what police think about the Bourne movies. For the most part they are two hours of honest cops being sent to deal with public disturbances and having their arms and legs broken.
Just watched the whole back catalogue of OCPD and then some, and subscribed off the back of it. Have to say, your writing and timing (the whole team really) is very good. Hope you make more of these.
In the movie, they mispronounce Socrates' name, so this guy is just gagging here in reference to the movie. Remember what he said? There's TOO MUCH to explain...
it's not often i feel the impulse to press the 'like' button in just the first few sentence of a video, but it keeps happening with Daniel's movie reviews. Good stuff :)
Not even a mention of how the Matrix is terrifying through Agent Smith's eyes? Now that I think about it, it's kinda like Planet of the Apes from Agent Smith's perspective.
Abraham Lincoln wasn't assassinated 20 years before Billy the Kid was born. Billy was killed in 1881, Lincoln was assassinated in 1865. Billy was around 5 or 6 years old when Lincoln was assassinated.
I wonder if it's possible for a human to talk any faster. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has to re-watch this several times to understand the commentary
When I realized that this was an OPCD video, my brain wanted to automatically like it... and throughout the video I kept wanting to like it again and again and again... This show is my favourite thing on youtube I think... I love absolutely everything about it: shifts my perspective on things, I feel like I learn new things and keep smiling and sometimes bursting out in laughter throughout the video... *sigh* Great great job!
The most amazing thing about the Joan of Arc story: She lived her whole life in one town, never leaving it, like most women of her era, and then just suddenly drops everything and walks away. People dont just randomly change their entire life direction like that. She had to have seen something. A time traveler who takes her to a fantastic future where she learns that she does these amazing things could realistically be interpreted as divine direction. Also, fun fact about Abraham Lincoln: A psychic warned him about his death, but decided not to listen. So he could have been told about it by time travelers, but just didn't care. So no paradox.
Actually human life-spans are longer in Star Trek as well, presumably due to technological advancements. Dr. McCoy shows up in the first episode of the next generation at which point he would have been 137 years old. So yeah, Vulcans still live longer, but no quite to the human vs dog level.
One of my fervent wishes in this life, along with the longevity and good health of my family and loved ones, is that Daniel O'Brian keeps making videos on the internet.
Luke Skywalker is a villain of Star Wars universe. He singlehandedly killed 265,000 people that were on Deathstar, mechanics, cooks, cleaners etc. Thinking about it Luke Skywalker is same as Thanos, just different POV. They are both killing people for their version of greater good.
This is the funniest part of this video/comments section! Cracked is 'family friendly'??? In what 'cracked universe' is it family friendly? I have a hard time sitting through 93.8% of their dribble, but add to it the flagrant language/crude content and that gets to be less... Family Friendly? lol They paid you to say that, didn't they?
Titanic should have made this list!! The personal story of Rose has to be presented in a very certain way for it to actually work! It has to be told from the perspective of the lovers or you start to notice things that shatter the illusion.
'And now that he's publicly established himself as a straight up domestic terrorist, Neo spends the rest of the series soaring over the city like a magical Osama bin Laden.'

NIGHT of the FUCKING LIMO DRIVERS!!! I died.
this video is so funny. I laughed so much I'm crying
Don't get out often, hey?
+GoldiRock Records founded the Canadian.
Funny thing with Lincoln is he very easily could have 100% known about his assassination due to his numerous nightmares and premonitions, which could be explained as him coping with Bill and Ted's intrusion
I was on another tab and "so crates" actually made me cringe, I really hope it was some joke I didn't get.
+TreSneaky Lol, don't worry. It is in fact a joke you didn't get.
+TreSneaky
You seriously need to watch _Bill & Ted_.
Serai3 ah I've seen it, forgot the reference, thanks.
TreSneaky
Party on, dude!
I always wondered what police think about the Bourne movies. For the most part they are two hours of honest cops being sent to deal with public disturbances and having their arms and legs broken.
So mermaids. Are we talking top half or bottom half fish? lol
+Chris Hall Left half fish.
+Josh Fox Much better than left hand shark
Just watched the whole back catalogue of OCPD and then some, and subscribed off the back of it. Have to say, your writing and timing (the whole team really) is very good. Hope you make more of these.
Ican't ... understandawordhesays ... mightbebecausehetalksreallyquickly .. t h e n s l o w l y ... thenreallyquicklyagain
Very awkward
Try CC
All we are is dust in the wind dude.
Dust.
Wind.
Dude. ->
You have a wonderful comedic delivery.
She just wanted to give her an apple. But no, her seven guardians HAD to kill her!
um, actually.....Agent A.Smith was the One
"If you're sad that the video's not on anymore you can watch it again ... Never stop watching the videos."
I am, endplate. I am.
So-crates? wha? that's SOK-RAT-EEZ to you, buddy.
In the movie, they mispronounce Socrates' name, so this guy is just gagging here in reference to the movie. Remember what he said? There's TOO MUCH to explain...
You have the syllables wrong... although you probably don't care, seeing as you came here to correct someone, not be right.
You.....you haven't seen Bill & Ted?
Sigmund Frood
it's not often i feel the impulse to press the 'like' button in just the first few sentence of a video, but it keeps happening with Daniel's movie reviews. Good stuff :)
Keanu Reeves is outta control!
Not even a mention of how the Matrix is terrifying through Agent Smith's eyes? Now that I think about it, it's kinda like Planet of the Apes from Agent Smith's perspective.
is the awkwardness faked or genuine?
+UnbelievablyGauche why not both?
Abraham Lincoln wasn't assassinated 20 years before Billy the Kid was born. Billy was killed in 1881, Lincoln was assassinated in 1865. Billy was around 5 or 6 years old when Lincoln was assassinated.
Magical Bin Laden LOL
pacquiao is the best
"Watch another one until a new one comes out again" Crying actual tears now
So is it 4 or 5?
When you called everyone my phone actually rang. I have never been this freaked out in my life.
I wonder if it's possible for a human to talk any faster. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has to re-watch this several times to understand the commentary
Christopher Bedford I think Ben Shapiro has him beat.
When I realized that this was an OPCD video, my brain wanted to automatically like it... and throughout the video I kept wanting to like it again and again and again...
This show is my favourite thing on youtube I think...
I love absolutely everything about it: shifts my perspective on things, I feel like I learn new things and keep smiling and sometimes bursting out in laughter throughout the video... *sigh*
Great great job!
"so crates"
Billy the Kid died at 21, not 22. And Abraham Lincoln didn't die 20 years before Billy was born. Billy was 5 when Lincoln was assassinated.
you trained your dog to live forever too ?
The most amazing thing about the Joan of Arc story: She lived her whole life in one town, never leaving it, like most women of her era, and then just suddenly drops everything and walks away. People dont just randomly change their entire life direction like that. She had to have seen something. A time traveler who takes her to a fantastic future where she learns that she does these amazing things could realistically be interpreted as divine direction.
Also, fun fact about Abraham Lincoln: A psychic warned him about his death, but decided not to listen. So he could have been told about it by time travelers, but just didn't care. So no paradox.
ITS A FLYING OSAMA BIN LADEN!!!!
Yes, Neo is the techno 2..3? whatever, coming of Jesus.
Actually human life-spans are longer in Star Trek as well, presumably due to technological advancements. Dr. McCoy shows up in the first episode of the next generation at which point he would have been 137 years old. So yeah, Vulcans still live longer, but no quite to the human vs dog level.
ntm4 true. Plus picard is about 237 in an EU Novel
Soc-Rat-Ees
so you've never watched bill and ted then? Joke in the movie as they don't know how to pronounce it
Americans generally seem to like saying So-crates.
No, we don't.
If he'd also said "Sigmund Frood," I'd be far more inclined to believe he was just joking.
That's so crates,
So in what way are the movies horrific for others? This video just stated huge logic/plotholes. There's nothing horrific about any of this.
sew-crates? jfc man it's pronounced "SOCK-RAT-TEES"
wow nothing gets by you
Tony Perri but bill and Ted pronounced it sew-crates in the movie
IBMDETROIT didnt know that lol
yeah man watch the gd movie. also, there aren't any rats or T-shirts involved with the phonetic pronunciation here.
"Like a magical Osama bin Laden." I love it! Perfect description of Neo flying around in the Matrix sequels!
Leather clad flying Osama Bin Laden lol!
One of my fervent wishes in this life, along with the longevity and good health of my family and loved ones, is that Daniel O'Brian keeps making videos on the internet.
did this guy write this stuff? hes funny
Luke Skywalker is a villain of Star Wars universe. He singlehandedly killed 265,000 people that were on Deathstar, mechanics, cooks, cleaners etc.
Thinking about it Luke Skywalker is same as Thanos, just different POV. They are both killing people for their version of greater good.
Stop beeping, the fuck word. This the internet, no need to. Well unless you are aiming for a job as a host, which Im guessing.
cracked is a family friendly enterprise that airs on some channels, they have to do that
Right cracked, seems family friendly already there....
This is the funniest part of this video/comments section!
Cracked is 'family friendly'???
In what 'cracked universe' is it family friendly?
I have a hard time sitting through 93.8% of their dribble, but add to it the flagrant language/crude content and that gets to be less...
Family Friendly? lol
They paid you to say that, didn't they?
GoldiRock Records hey, psst guy, some people need to put food on the table, don't knock it
"every sci-fi or fantasy setting you pretended to occupy as a child," as a child? I still pretend to be spider-man's sidekick, man.
You do know that Spock is half human?
Still has the life span of a Vulcan, according to ST lore.
+He Ka Which means that Sarek is *also* a Vulcan who sleeps with Earth women.
FUCKING NERD
the vulcan is more dominant so he is technically still have all vulcan's traits
He Ka Maybe if spock told other Vulcans he shags humans they’d act like we do if a guy told you he was shag in his dog
Titanic should have made this list!! The personal story of Rose has to be presented in a very certain way for it to actually work! It has to be told from the perspective of the lovers or you start to notice things that shatter the illusion.
