MHGR Could you please do a reaction video to the tf2 SFM Blue emesis please? I really enjoy your reaction videos on tf2 and I would really like to see your opinion on Emesis Blue please. Thanks!
ua-cam.com/video/J6DfhgKpS-c/v-deo.htmlsi=EZgfaxhtzDSYeetC
This video goes in depth on the subterranean warfare in vraks. It's made by janovich but there's no rush on you reacting to this.(I'm sure you're busy with covering ukraine,hamas,and dealing with your new company)
I'm just waiting for you to react to emesis blue a tf2 horror movie and its really really really terrifying well a little
So called LARPer in this case is also akin to unregulated militia, this happened in the Southern theatre of the American Revolution. Nonuniformed militia went out and tortured and engaged civilians in the Carolina backcountry and committed atrocities against one another for nearly no reason, both Tory Loyalists and Whig/Patriot Americans did this.
They had a reason though it was a Civil War it was about enforcing the kings tyranny or doing something different. Nobody runs around in the woods and fights people for no reason there is always a reason which you yourself have elucidated.
@@smokedbeefandcheese4144 a lot of violence in war is not for political reasons. Its personal & its retributive. That neighbour someone didn't like because of he kept his trash can? Or the guy who played his radio loud? In anarchy/lawlessness, people act out, even so called normal low abiding people act out.
Also just an fyi I don't know what combat this guy served in but I served in afghanistan 08-09 in Kunar Province. There were plenty of special forces or what we called ODA who did not wear patches. Also in a civil war why would anyone want an identifying mark for what unit they served in? Would that really matter at this point? Also not to mention you would think the owner of this channel would know this but you literally cannot use unit patches in movies without permission from that said unit patch you are displaying. You can wear indavidual rewarded items but that's it
Just to let you know, A24 is an independent film studio that is located in Manhattan, not Hollywood. They're reponsible for films such as Everything Everywhere All at Once.
Is that so? If so, even better hopefully
Every other 2CW movie has been heavily slanted to the left, so I don't have much faith this one will be any better.
@@Redneck2393 i guess you better pray the daily wire makes one then lol
@@tunners Just saying the track record isn't good. Go watch the 2017 movie Bushwick and you'll see what I mean.
I was going to say the exact same thing. I'll add that Alex Garland is in no way a director known for big budget action films: he typically makes obscure, artistic science fiction films. A24 is a great production company that releases amazing, thought provoking films that are way more on the arthouse side of things than anything released by an entity like Disney. In the end, this is am A24 movie: not a war manual.
Still trying to wrap my head around the fact that California and Texas working together, let alone winning with just the two states. Otherwise the whole premise has been done better in a Hearts of Iron 4 mod
kaiserrecht bro, man made me hate MacArthur
If it plays off more of California military working with Texas military, that’s more plausible. Not California government working with Texas. Maybe California military already took out California government. Both states have a huge military presence.
Man when will you folks realize that money is the ultimate negotiating tool? Texas and California are the 2 most wealthiest states in the country. If they wanted to sanction or economically cripple Washington DC seceding will do just that.
Texas is probably a blue state in the movie timeline due to demographic replacement.
To be fair, California and Texas have the most resources other than Alaska. Resources are what makes the weapons, what makes the fuel, what makes ammo. These two states together are the only places that have enough resources to take on the United States Military. Whereas a complete region like New England absolutely would not have anywhere close to enough resources to take on the US Military for more than a few days to a week or so before we run out of things like, for example, gasoline.
The good thing is that this movie is already doing its job because people are already having these debates.
I think the shopkeeper scene will turn about to be more about how apathy can allow situations to come about.
As the old saying goes: "All it takes for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing".
It's simply bizarre that more observers haven't made the comment - the obvious observation - that you have. So, I'm glad that you bothered to state the obvious (I'm not being facetious).
Having seen the film that scene hits different because there are armed men on the roof of the building opposite the shop, and there is no discussion about who they are, just their presence is enough to show that the Civil War has reach the town, just in a different way .
@@grassygnoll3345 It could be considered a reflection of REALITY. I reside in an extremely sheltered suburb of an extremely sheltered, “small market,” Midwestern area. There are undercover police EVERYWHERE. By “police,” I mean, “enforcement” officers. Con
@@grassygnoll3345 That is a fantastic scene. Like so many scenes in Alex Garland movies, it can definitely be viewed as a reflection of current reality. There are “business as usual” locales EVERYWHERE in the USA. Most are the most sheltered, “safest” places to live… as long as you conform 🫢
I feel like this movie was original going to a satire criticizing California’s and Texas’s independence and flawed justice system
I did laugh when I heard the forces of Texas and California and said as much to my friends, but the I thought California does have a lot of U.S military power (I think the most in the U.S, cuz of the coast line) and a lot of folks from Cali have moved to Texas
Hearing that US forces seldom strip their patches is weird coming from the CAF. I was always taught that, during any action, we are to "sanitize" our uniforms, including taking off our rank. The thought process being that it would hinder the enemy's ability to figure out the units they're facing, and the removal of the rank slip is to hinder the enemy's target prioritization as a sniper will have a harder time picking out unit commanders from random privates and corporals if no one's wearing any identification.
I used to think it was rather dumb, as I didnt think a sniper would be able to tell if someone had two hooks or two crowns through a scope, but after seeing how high fidelity and high magnification the scopes being used in Ukraine are, I definitely understand it now.
It’s not as cringe as your title makes it out to be. But i do like your insight, knowledge and militaristic critique of the film.
It's not as cringe as this guys comments generally are. I do, however, agree that his experience is interesting to hear about (it's just a shame that he uses a film that he has not seen as a stepping stone to sharing his experiences).
Same note too
Garland (the director) seems to have a solid track record so I’ll save judgement until it comes out. Although the only thing I question is how the heck are California and Texas on the same side? If a scenario like this happened I could see both states going independent but separate.
America worked with alqaeda against the Russians in the 80’s…..Texas and California going against a common enemy pales in comparison lol
when I write near future stuff, I'll make weird alliances and pairings partially for my own entertainment, partially to divorce it from reality, and partially to see how that could happen. Like one of the pieces has Taiwan and China allied in the South/East China Sea vs the Quad (minus the United States). It has some basis in reality but is very much fictional.
From what I heard is that he made the politics pretty removed from reality. Focusing on the impact/fallout of a civil war in the modern era and now the causes of it. It gives me hope that this movie won't be woke but who knows....maybe the sources I heard it from are wrong/lying.
Enough people from California move to Texas and vice versa that I could see their elite congealing into One entitled class
@@EvilClapTrapI can’t wait for the line of dialogue that breaks the movie, something like “we are doing this to fix modern media” or “America is weak because of being racist and homophobic are just as wrong as robbery”
You don't understand the mechanics of a First World civil war and a stone aged proxy army fueled and funded by warring religious factions. You are as unproductive in discussion as a soldier from the Crimean.
Actually, ISIS hating being called Daesh, but not for that reason alone. It was an alternate way of saying their name in Arabic, but it is similar to the words for tyrant and chaos.
The actor portraying the "president" looks like Gore 😂
The LARPer have no trigger discipline
Very realistic
The idea is interesting but the scenarios are way off.
man i love your content, but i miss the reacting to video games
6:57 You are miss informed on origin of term DEASH it’s simply the Arabic abbreviation of ISIS “al-Dawlah al-Islāmīyah fī al-`Irāq wa al-Shām”. You are right in the sense it has no meaning in English to say daesh though.
ISIS was a cellphone provider in 2010.
About insignia, I found a 30 second teaser for this movie on Facebook yesterday that had a few new clips and one of them shows the glasses guy, and you actually can see a patch on his left shoulder, but the angles shown in this trailer don't show it. It's diamond-shaped and black with what looks like a white skull over something else that's too blurry to make out. Not entirely sure what it's representing, but my guess is either the Florida Alliance or a militia faction not yet mentioned.
One thing to keep in mind about highways in bad zones is that the way out of the zone will be overloaded with traffic of people trying to get out. The way in will be far less populated, but some people might think to use it as a faster way to get out. That's what I thought of with the highway scene. That said, it looks like whatever battle was taking place wasn't just in the area they were fleeing, or they were hit as they attempted to flee. I notice the humvee facing the same direction, so gonna guess clash of forces.
Three term president... Either things have changed in the setting of the movie to allow this, or this is the root cause of the civil war--a president that didn't relinquish the office after his terms were finished, and maybe declared martial law. If they are shooting journalists in the capitol, that suggests to me that DC are the bad guys the states are rebelling against, and the root of the problem.
I take this as it is--a movie. That said, I hope they depict just how horrible civil war could be for all these idiots that seem to want it.
when it comes to heritage sites, like that ethos is connected with functioning and united government but if the US is at this state I would not be surprised if certain sites were destroyed
Many monuments will be seen as exclusively to the federal government. If people are going against the feds they will tear down the statues. They will want to remove anything that signals and extreme amount of permanence. It’s the same reason why they pulled down the statue of Saddam. That’s the reason why they would pull down Mount Rushmore and stuff like that.
He blinked 3 times in 10 seconds hes being held at super duper gunpoint
The more i see and hear about this movie, the more i get the sense this movie is going to be pretty cringe
what if that guy took off his patches because he does not believe in the US government any more?
DON'T go BAITING US WITH LOGICALLY FORMULATED QUESTIONS, Mr. Bateman. YOu think youre smart.
@@JohnJohn-ir5hw just know some vets who took off their patches and medals and ribbons cause of what the government is doing now
I feel like this movie is going to be a call to reality for political extremism
Until a line of dialogue is said about how “war is the only way to fix modern media” or “Once we take over the government, we will continue the The War On Terror and get our oil fields back”
Hey Paul, I don’t know if you’re gonna be doing any more reactions to Soundsmith’s Mann’s Guide videos, but the newest one dropped a week ago or so, and it’s for a Pyro weapon, the Backburner. Just thought you’d be interested
Cringe? It is an anti war movie. it is supposed to make you uncomfortable. Watch the movie. It is nothing like the trailer. If anything the trailer is misleading. The movie takes no sides and it is shot from the perspective of journalists.
Texas and cali wokring together 😂😂😂
Daesh is an acronym for Dul al-Islami fi al-Sham, or the Islamic State of the Levant, sometimes also The Islamic State of Syria and Iraq, but Arabic tends to view Syria, Jordan, and Lebanon as the Levant. They were just literally calling them ISIS.
I feel like if a Civil War was to happen in America it would not be organized it would look more like the troubles in Ireland or whatever. And I think eventually the army and law-enforcement would develop factions. If our own government is arguing about what the constitution looks like. I can only imagine what it would look like when it comes time to enforce the constitution and whatever that looks like in some sort of disaster. Where the governments monopoly on violence cannot be effectively maintained.
Can we get a review of the full movie?
Just discovered your channel. Good stuff dude.
so glad you're making videos again :)
It’s a possibility. Could have happened. Could happen.
If youre interested, Invicta is doing some videos on 40k Space Marine chapter organisation. Would be neat to see you react to that.
You gotta know anything Cali would do this radical, Oregon would be hangin' on their coattails, unless internal conflict prohibited.
This movie, 2024 “Civil War” Movie opened… April 12th…. The firing on Fort Sumter, 4:00 AM April 12th, 1861. Loved the film. Surprisingly not political. Not much detail why, when, who but that is not the point. The effects of a Civil War… lack of transport, few cars, little gasoline, no law enforcement, no CHP (Highway patrol) , a lot more refugees I would expect. Big Cities need huge amounts of food and goods to be delivered and with little trucking, massive starvation! The 1st CW, the South had huge problems with food shipments breaking down by 1864… worn out trains and military taking most civilian wagons and horses. The South also had local militia and ruffians take over and was dangerous moving around. The most dangerous part in a war (civil or not) is the beginning and the end… when people are settling scores and filling up the mass graves…. Before peace breaks out
we saw the same thing in decades of the walking dead
1:03 i can bet i saw exact scene in 1-2 seasons of the walking dead show. I mean this is literally same shot
I love a youtube channel who is associated with the Hearts of Iron 4 mod Kaiserreich, Kaiser Cat Cinema, has made community posts on their channel relating to the movie and the map and saying it may not be using real life divisions for the war, but hey it does kinda look like the second american civil war from Kaiserreich, minus the Combined syndicates of America, since the Florida alliance and Western Forces appear more closely in territory with the American Union State (minus texas and the carolina's) and the Pacific States of America (Minus California, Nevada and Arizona). Though quite disappointed in the movie, that canada hasn't taken in New England for protection, coolest part in Kaiserreich, having a New England puppet as the Dominion of Canada.
Not too far fetched since we see what the Democrats are doing!
Best review of Civil War the movie I've watched so far.
I would not go to a theatre to see this movie even for entertainment. You will be tracked by the government. That is the purpose of this lame ass movie. They will surveil your phone, vehicle, credit card, and you with security camera footage and facial recognition.
Hey you should do the TF2 Christmas 🎁
Texas and California make sense since they are the big "guys" and the strongest need to be together against other because they have resources (natural and tech), money, population and military power like armies bases and personal.
Why are the video's so late
Because he gets more views talking about Russia and Ukraine in his other channel.
Day 3 of asking for a reaction of "[SFM] Spawncamp" with correlations to real life military strategies.
Day 1 of asking MHGR to react to "Using guerilla warfare to defeat the strongest tribe" by trafalgar
Well done. This was the best review I’ve seen. I’m just watching to see what people think. This is “HomelessWood” as usual. Crap!
Like your understanding of military operations
You are making an assumption on air superiority. Jet flying low may because of failure to establish air superiority and a highly capable air defense system. Similar to what has happened in the Ukraine. You can say that because of inadequacies of Russian air craft against air defense. We don't know how well a f-22 will do against a patriot battery or NASAM. Given the distribution of logistics of part that keeps aircraft flying would be disrupted. Most of the production of military aircraft is in the Texas, California and Missouri. How would the United States represented by mostly new England states keep their planes flying or even electronics running for missile systems. You are making mistake about the force operating in a specific way because this is how the US army operates. In a civil war their disintegrations of command structure and doctrine. A rebel force of mostly national guard units, irregulars and some federal forces would act differently. As far as the set up of fob you see in the movie, maybe the result of a highly mobilize event were break though has taken place and the force is on constant move preventing doctrine camp set up. In Iraqi there were tanker and drivers sleeping against the wheels of their vehicle before being told to head out. A movie trailer is not a good bases for judging what actually happens in the movie.
Just watching some of the trailors about this movie civil war makes this movie look more like a action movie than a political thriller .I haven't seen this movie but I reckon it would lack the political intrigue that is needed for a movie about a civil war especially one in America. Its a movie that would suit the politically naive ,the commentator in this video pointed out a lot of things wrong with this movie especially where movie gets it wrong when it comes to military actions and a number of other things in fact he has done a good review of this movie.
As said below, it's not a big Hollywood movie. You should maybe research that before you misjudge it.
Everyone called them Isis or Isil in the news only ever heard my Arab friends call them diesh
Anything to make $$$$$
How come you don’t react to Ukrainian combat videos. Vets react to this stuff and it’s interesting to get military vets take on the videos.
He does on his other channel which he pretty much abandoned this one for.
not a hollywood movie dude
Wait until you see the final assault. It’s an utter joke.
Interesting dose of reality injected into a not well thought out, middling at best, propaganda film.
👍
I watched the movie. It aint bad
These are likely the neatest parts of the film, the rest is just propaganda. Election year!
#MHGR, It's time for you to do something fruitful. Give up your lies and deception, and devote your life to the Lord and save people's lives.
Based on a true story? 😊
I've tried to give your video a chance so that I don't fall hard into hypocrisy; however, around 5:30, where you are talking about ISIS and the avoidance of legitimizing separatist entities, it is simply ridiculous to continue listening to ANYONE attempt to explain - to suggest - that which is wrong with a movie that you have not seen. YES, trailers and commercials are usually designed to be provocative and, therefore leading and bait-laden. But, what the heck are you trying to accomplish with your video and assumption-based - your cringe-worthy - REVIEW and analysis of (again) an unseen film? Your video is itself, bait. And, it is manipulative. Go see the film. Then, make another video in which you defend or recant your assumptions. Alex Garland is NOT a "Hollywood" film maker. A24 is a New York based, anything-but-Hollywood film distributor. Your video is littered with "I've seen this before" and many other "classic indulgences." You are assuming and assuming. It's sad.
The movie is definitely cringe. Texas would never align with California in a million years, the dialogue is terrible, the director hasn't made a good movie in years, and the fact that it's gonna be released durin' an Election Year is a massive red flag.
That's likely the truth. I BET it's a great trailer and a terrible movie, mostly a propaganda film. All we hear on the news is that Trump will divide, be a dictator, create civil war..although he had 4 years and never did that and ran this country far better than the current puppet zombie. I remember seeing movie trailers that looked this promising and guess what, they ended up being about a guy looking for his wife or daughter..just totally sucked.
To much blablabla.
This movie for sure isn’t going to paint the military bad or the gov, it’s known the military doesn’t let movie productions barrow military vehicles and planes if the movie portrays them in bad light.
It’s not going to paint leftist in bad ways so the villain can only be one group that is in real life the most pro American people.
It isn't "Ki-ev." It's "Keev." Ki-ev is the Russified version of the city... when they occupied it.
It’s not “Par-is” it’s “Par-ee”…
Blah blah blah
Most who have seen it say it’s excellent and realistic, though the director left the particulars of our political differences out of the movie.
Cringe??????????? LOL after January 6 everything is possible
You mean the protest on jan 6
