    @IrishRoo12 8 років тому +418

    Predictions before watching:
    1. Birdman
    2. Whiplash
    3. Grand Budapest
    4. Some foreign movie I haven't heard of
    5. Gone Girl

    • @ephramoliver5656
      @ephramoliver5656 8 років тому +21

      Those are all on there lol. I disagree with Gone Girl being on the list. That movie was excruciatingly boring and unengaging with all unlikeable and uninteresting characters. Birdman was awesome.

    • @murciadoxial8056
      @murciadoxial8056 8 років тому +32

      i may have not engaged you, but it is a masterclass of hwo to craft a movie in terms of visual narrative and directing

    • @ephramoliver5656
      @ephramoliver5656 8 років тому +5

      +Murcia doxial I don't generally judge films on that level. Fight Club is a million times better. Gone Girl was a pointless, over-hyped poece if crap mindf*ck film. Fight Club did that category of film in a fun and interesting way.

    • @murciadoxial8056
      @murciadoxial8056 8 років тому +41

      KrazyKat well sadly, the way a movie is defined as good involves directing, acting, editing, script, production and structure, you cant jsut ignore that regardless of your lack of entertainment... either way, fight club is far more fun than gone girl, you surely are right on that

    • @K0sm1cKid
      @K0sm1cKid 8 років тому +3

      Gone Girl was way too long and it failed to grip me. I never cared about any of the characters I was really just frustrated.

      @davidjennystudentshortfilm3010 8 років тому +35

      Except for Green Room, The VVitch, The Lobster and maybe Sing Street, there just hasn't been much that would fit the YMS standard.

    • @peanutreject
      @peanutreject 8 років тому +2

      I don't even know if Green Room fits his standard. He hasn't seen it, and while I loved it, there was something about it that made me feel like "there's something I must be missing. Something that if I thought about it, it would make this movie seem less great." I could see him giving that movie a 6, but it may just be me misjudging what he likes. After all, I'm not him, and I shouldn't really judge a movie for him. Still would recommend it to him, though. Don't post any spoilers in case he reads this comment thread.

    This is probably the third or fourth time I've fully watched this list. There are maybe 5 movies you name which I didn't know about previously but since this video was posted, I've sought out and viewed, my favourite being Enemy. You're easily my favourite UA-camr and I definitely appreciate what you do! A lot of my friends also watch your videos religiously. Keep up the great work because I know my Patreon contributions are 100% worth it.

    Your videos have so much EFFORT put into them. i feel like you are the kind of person who feels the need to create quality for the sake of purity of point. These year-recap lists feel like genuine praise and recommendation, and they make me excited to watch movies. I feel that the best film related content on UA-cam is YMS and Welcome to the Basement. You deserve support and recognition!!!

    I'm very surprised that you watched "The Fool" and "Leviathan". I'm from Russia and our movies are not really talked about outside our country. The director of "The Fool" is a really talented guy and i suggest you to watch other movies from him if subtitles for them exist.

      Zvyagintsev is the best director right now. I watch his movies since I saw The Return which to this day remain my top 3 movie of all time.
      Loveless is the only one that I wouldn't call a masterpiece and it still is a very good film (there's one scene that is absolutely masterful: when the boy overhears his parents arguing).
      I made all my fiends watch The Return btw and it always provokes a lot of debate.

Interestingly enough that film actually came from the Philippines, my country, and it never really had a wide release or attention in the mainstream media. I hope you know how much your videos mean to me because it teaches me a lot and enables me to discover underrated fascinating film.

    Don't know where else to say this but I just wanted to express my thanks. These lists, and all your film fests and quickies, are honestly just the most valuable thing I could ever find. It's really hard to find good films, despite there being so many. I was never exposed to foreign films before your channel and now I know that there are really great ones, and I ended up falling in love with so many of them. Mommy, The Handmaiden, Tom on the Farm, I am Love, Call Me by Your Name, Young and Beautiful, and tons more. That's not even considering the songs I've found through your channel. It means so much to wait for so long to make these kinds of lists, because they're so high quality and rich. I'm forever indebted to you, your content, and the endless amount of time you've poured into watching great movies and pure shit movies. Thank you!!

    The ironic thing about subscriptions on youtube is that the people who upload infrequently are the people it makes the most sense to subscribe to, because instead of checking their channel every day you can just be notified when they upload something new. The people who upload frequently are the people who least need subscriptions, because you already know they're going to upload every day so it doesn't even matter. But for some reason people unsubscribe to people when the subscription will alert them to something they wouldn't have otherwise known, and keep the subscription to channels that they already know will be uploading anyway.

      Eh. I think of youtuber channels that put time and thought into their videos and aren't frequent as others as a special treat. They may deserve more subs overall but they will come in time. On this platform sadly, if you don't have a fuck load of videos with no thought nor effort put in to them daily, you'll be promoted more and get more subscriptions. Also people are very demanding for content. They can't just sit with one well put together video or any video in general and will go for someone else who uploads frequently and have cheap jokes and things that they know the viewer likes and will flock to their content.

    Hey Adam, I'm back after watching Mommy. It was an incredible film, really glad I gave it a shot. The aspect ratio's payoff was actually a really great one and the way the film's shot, edited and acted helps convey so many emotions so well it's really impressive and unique. The characters were also fantastic, I knew almost instantly I was going to enjoy the film just based off how the mom and son interacted but then the teacher was such a nice touch. Really great film, looking forward to anything this director does in the future after this. Thanks for the recommendation!

      I know Americans have great difficulty with understanding the world contains more than just English, so do yourself a favor, learn to read subtitels while watching a film and a whole world will open for you. Hopefully, in the future, we don't need seperate English language versions of movies (like Stieg Larssons books), because people can't be bothered to read subtitles...

    What I like most about your top 10 of the year videos which are not actually 10 is that I can discover movies that are not advertised in the mainstream media. I work a lot and try to have a normal life while not working, so I don't actually have time to dig for poorly advertised or low budget movies. I'm not really a youtube commenter but if it makes you feel good here it goes: thanks for introducing me to Denis Villeneuve's work, he's one of my favorite directors now, Synecdoche New York, Guardians of the galaxy (which I would have never watched if it weren't for your review, not really into superhero movies), The Master, Her, the Raid 1 and 2, Zero Dark Thirty and a lot more that I can't remember right now from your top 10 lists. Also, I feel I should also thank you for not wasting my time with movies and TV shows that I know I wouldn't have liked. Also, I find your videos relaxing and comforting, which help me disconnect and relax. If there's a film I would like you to see it's Calvary (2014), I'm a subscriber for a few years now , I think you'll enjoy it. If you ever somehow come to visit Romania, maybe at TIFF (Transylvania not Toronto, International Film Festival, let's grab a beer. Cheers.

      recognized is not the issue, he is recognized, he is known about, but no one knows him. no one.
      He could just make tons of money by making another birdman movie, its what people want, its not what he wants.
      The stress of doing the play increases his psychosis, hallucinations, illusions of grandeur. Before the opening night he breaks down, gets drunk, tries to kill himself but cant, halucinates that the only real choice is to be a fake and be birdman again.
      He seeks validation, was barred from it, will be ruined if the play fails, and breaks mentally.

    The wife and I made a movie night out of Art & Craft followed by An Honest Liar. Those two films, both individually and as a pair, spawned some excellent conversation. We would have NEVER known about them had you not included them. Enjoyed them immensely -- thank you!

    The Double is based on the Dostoyevsky novella "The Double", Enemy is based on the novel "The Double" by Josè Saramago. Not the same book.
