Is Cinema Sins the single worst thing in existence?
>>
Yeah. All they do is encourage nitpicking by people who don't understand how movies are made, how stories are written, or even what something as simple as a plot hole is.

I don't really remember, but I think in the beginning actual flaws were pointed out. Now it just consists of snarky nitpick man trying hard to be funny and clever about stuff that doesn't matter in the slightest.

This man is correct, bronies are worse

>>68234930
Nah, bronies are cringy, but they keep to themselves for the most part. The worst you'll have to endure on an everyday basis is just people with pony avatars.

The current trend of contrarian nitpicking of movies is far more annoying.

I like RedLetterMedia, but I blame them for this plague.

Right, but it's still not funny or clever.

It's kinda funny. Used to actually put effort into the series, but they've ballooned too big for their own good. Now it's just nit pic shit and memes.

Not to mention the spin-offs they've inspired. Cinemasins related or not.

IIRC youtube changed their monetization to be based on video length and thats when he went full nitpick with 20 minute videos. Not that it was great before.

RLM isn't really contrarian, though, outside of a few things like Boyhood.

They are now. They used to do horrible movies which was funny.

Now it's like
>Everything wrong with the Godfather in 18mins
>Everything wrong with Back To The Future
>Everything wrong with A Clockwork Orange

It's not even funny. Pointing out mistakes in beloved or critically acclaimed stuff is retarded.

The comments are screaming for actual shit movies for them to destroy, yet never happens anymore.

This week for instance. Did they do a funny video of a hated movie?

No. They did The Jungle Book. The original Disney movie.
Why? Because the live action one is out and they gotta get that sweet ad revenue.

>>68234592
its not great and really is a one joke premise.

But the internet is full of unboxing and reaction videos so I'd say there is far worse out there.

I don't hate cinemasins, I hate their little faggoty fanbase that quote the fucking *Ding* noise on YT comments sections, but I guess it's my fault for reading that cancerous shit.
>>
>>68235623
>Honest Trailers
Which is worse than Cinema Sins.
>>
>>68235335
I like their stuff, and I don't think they're contrarians, but as much as I love the Plinkett reviews, they seem to have started this trend where every hack on the internet thought they could be just as witty and interesting simply by nitpicking movies.

It's like all the AVGN ripoffs from ten years ago, only far more cancerous.
>>
>>68235623
HISHE got popular and now only puts out like 3 videos a year.
Suckered everyone in. Got the big money and now abandons their fans.

Regardless of whether or not you think they're funny (which neither of them are), Honest Trailers doesn't actively make film discussion worse like Cinema Sins does.

>pandering, easy humor
>back-tracking when they make fun of popular movies as to not upset humorless spergs

No, not really. It's pretty spineless and unfunny.
>>
>>68235913
In a way, it kinda does, in a way opposte to Cinema Sins. They make sure to throw in some kind of reassurance that the movie's still good when they jab at movies they know their fanbase loves. Wouldn't want to make anyone think any movie can have a fault, right?
>>
>>68235705
What I love about the AVGN knockoffs was how ANOTHER genre of critics came out of nowhere and started shitting on guys like DSP and Chris Bores, but those videos became so popular that people started to ripoff those critics as well! Success breeds imitation in all ranges of life.
>>
>>68235920
That really pissed me off about the one for TFA.

Isn't Honest Trailers just a compilation of all the tired jokes the internet made about a movie crammed into a 4 minute video?

Or the ones where they aren't even sins, just random things he points out. The Watchmen one is particularly bad

>>
>all these faggots taking CS too seriously
>>
>>68236226
They had two announcers. The normal guy was going on about how awesome it was while the other was talking about how it wasn't original or good. Then at the end they kiss and make up about their favorite things. Basically, they made every effort to cover their ass.
>>
>>68236258
When he sins stuff in movie adaptations that was sticking to the source material. It's unfair to the filmmakers. Watchmen for instance he sins the cutting of scenes between Nite Owl and Silk Spectre fighting muggers and Dr Manhattan being interviewed, even though this was how the scene played out in the comics.

The honest trailers guys make other videos, and in those other videos that divided opinion was pretty much their response to the movie. It wasn't faked.

That wasn't funny. I'm not saying it was offensive, it was just not funny. It wasn't a serious criticism, because it was fucking dumb. Can you at least make it halfway through before ya do filler? I know ya have to fill, but c'mon.

I can see how a bleeding heart jew loving liberal would hate MLP.

It beautifully displays all the core tenants of white nationalism and supremacy and it's refreshing to see that in this day and age.

Like, for instance, the episode where Rarity is captured by a malevolent race of dogs pretty much showcases the state of whites in the western world, and teaches us to be cautious about multiculturalism

My Little Pony:Friendship is Magic should be required viewing for any serious white nationalist. It's a shame so many jews want to take it down and constantly berate it.
>>
I realize CS is supposed to be humor and not actual criticism. Aside from the actual fact that they are not funny at all. But videos like >>68244231 just show what a smug pleb he really is, thinking he's a master movie fan.
