What do we think about petrolicious

I like their videos. Very well done
>>14706097
Hipster tier trash
They spend more time on camera angles, filters and music than they do on the cars in action. Great editing. Shit car vids.

yeah, spending all that time making something you look at not look shit. stupid hipster logic
I like their videos, I'm a sucker for pretty angles and slightly excessive saturation.
The one thing I don't like is how they often focus a bit too much on the owner.
>>14706475
You're free to search for shaky dashcam videos of people driving rapidly on Youtube. Some others simply enjoy looking at a nice thing once in a while.
>>14706097
>What do we think
Form your own opinions.
better than most car channels
good cinematography and the stories are nice
>>14706607
meme yourself myman
I like it but agree with
>>14706578
Sometimes the owner just rambles on about shit completely not relevant and I feel like I didn't get enough car.
>>14706097
They are making these short movies really good. Cinematic angles, you can see the car from all angles, you can hear it and there's a story. Perfect.
>>14706475
Go back to your annoying ''stance works'' videos.
>>14706695
I was jealous of this lucky guy.
>>14706475
That's exactly what I want. eye candy and a story.
And I have such a thing for that firebird now. The subtle little rally touches..

Only car channel on yt i watch. The one about the kid building his own honda bike may have made me tear up a bit
>>14706475
All this is true, but its only bad because thers's not enough footage of the complete car. Its mostly closeups.
>>14710782
>not enough footage of the complete car
Guess I haven't seen one like that.
>>14706097
I usually hate this sort of thing but after being inundated with chucklefucks like that blue daddy's money Mustang kid and reddit car reviews trying to "redefine car culture" it's nice to see some folks wax poetic and actually come across like they're passionate about cars. 10/10, it's alright.

You all are the reason /o/ has gone to shit. People more concerned with aesthetics than driving and wrenching on your damn car.
Kill yourselves my men.

Seriously dude?
>>14713408
This.
They should call it pretentolicious. Their videos rarely even tell you what kind of motor is in the car and they use the same kind of cinematography tricks as most stancefag videos.
Willing to bet most of the fags who like this shit don't even own a car.
>>14713408
>>14713428
tasteless tears are sweet to me
>>14713408
>more concerned with aesthetics than driving and wrenching on your damn car
Dunno how you get that out of a stand alone opinion but alright- And let's not BS ourselves, yuropoors are why /o/ has gone to shit.
>>14713408
well, its good because it gets all people into cars. Even novices who dont give a fuck about cars can atleast see the real passion these people have with their beautiful cars. Its a genre of car presentation you fuccboi, dont you want people to see the simple beauty of a car?
>>14706097
I've seen one or two and liked it but not enough to watch any more.
>>14706097
they are ok

>the part where he talked about his dad
this shit makes me well up pretty strong, fuck
its not petrolicious, but its damn near the same
>>14713436
>>14713441
>Muh Feels!
Do you even realize how susceptible and weak minded you faggots are for falling for this shit?
It's all about the editing. ALL ABOUT THE EDITING!!!!
Case in point
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bnxzXoKAAWM
>>14713408
>aesthetics
>driving and wrenching
Da fuq?
You don't even have an idea what these movies are about.
>>14713485
Falling for what shit? I said it was better than some of the other shit out there (not exactly a glowing endorsement) and you made the leap in logic that somehow that meant I don't wrench or care about driving or something.
>>14713485
are we supposed to only watch unedited shit?
Do you fucks only watch petrolicious so you can shit on it here? What's more to ask? Every single episode has a story, the shots are fucking stunning and you only skip on seeing the trunk content basically. Even the sound is on point. Shit if you want rowdy videos go watch 1320 or something.
>>14706700
This video in particular while not being as bad as some of their other ones really could have been done much better by showing more footage of the car driving those backroads instead of the Philip Bloom shit, and much less of the owner whining.
The guy is a twerp straight out of a vice video and listening to his shrill voice tires me out.
At least find someone with an interesting story if you want to have him talk.
>>14706097
Their videos are consistently top notch, but I don't really want 3141645 videos about shitty Porsches and BMWs.
I count four videos TOTAL feat. my preferred class: FJ40, Jeep CJ, 2x Land Rover (one Series, one Disco).
They could do so much with Jeep and Land Rover alone. The CJ Pan-American Highway Expedition, Series' role in British empire, etc.
The American muscle class is also lacking.
>>14713748
>owner whining
The car probably is worth more than your house.
You should be an excellent producer then.
>>14713620
it's because most of /o/ is only into cars because of benchracing, these videos don't give enough technical data for these nerds to fap over/whine/benchrace about.
>>14706097
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mo8Qls0HnWo
dim lighting and fast cuts
not enough sweeps trackers or good angle statics
overall id just call it pretentious
>>14713847
Why'd you get so butthurt?
>>14713748
>more footage of the car driving those backroads instead of the Philip Bloom shit, and much less of the owner whining.
You're the one who's unhappy and whining.
>listening to his shrill voice tires me out.
Criticizing someones physiology. You must be insecure af. Go back to your hollywood thrillers.
>>14706097
Didn't particularly like the video with that Trans Am. LS swapped classic Pontiacs make me cringe
>>14706695
>cinematic
did not even get to see underside
>>14713976
>LS swapped classic Pontiacs make me cringe
why?
>>14714008
These movies are more about the story. Someone previously wined that there isn't enough footage with the cars driving, now you want to see closeups from all the possible sides. He told what was done with the car and that's enough.
>>14713960
Why is it that anyone who doesn't think the Petrolicious formula is infallible must somehow be a benchracer or watches thrillers or is poor, or visually illeterate, insecure or whatever kind bullshit you need to tell yourself to feel better?
Delusions are not the mark of a sound mind. Do yourself a favor and sort out your mental problems.
>>14714028
Not poster, but same here. Pontiacs had their own (superior) small blocks and didn't share engines with Chebbys. Putting an LS into a period Pontiac destroys its history.
>>14714330
>doesn't think the Petrolicious formula is infallible because the porsche owner is whining (?) and his voice isn't appealing enough
Keep up the excellent criticism!
>>14714121
>He told what was done with the car and that's enough
there was not much of that either
>>14714483
Yes, as I remember, there wasn't much done with the car.
>>14714341
good to know, thanks
>>14714559
but you have to worry when matt farah is doing a better job
>>14714601
Why?
>>14714341
It had an oldsmobile engine in it
>>14706475
And?
Whats wrong with this.
>>14713428
>pretentolicious
you made me think of this video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MT1KW2tWD4I
>>14706097
I like the videos for what they are.
Videos about people who love their cars. Stories of how they got the cars. Why they love them. I like the editing and the aesthetics of the video content as well. It's great to see professional tier quality content being produced for YouTube, available for free.
I wish they'd do more bikes. The only thing like it for bikes is "Stories of Bike", and they did some hipster stuff and that project slowed.
I like a variety of petrolhead type content on YouTube for a variety of reasons. I can appreciate the strengths of Petrolicious, and I can enjoy the Japan Motorhead channel for their strengths.
I even love some scummy motovloggers and some of the small mechanic video channels.
I love so much stuff that I usually don't post on /o/ youtube hatin' threads. Hating on YT content is the norm for 4chan, I've been finding. Most people who hate on YT content but don't show any substitute content they enjoy are TV shills.
>>14713485
kill yourself fool
>>14713436
board leakage is why /o/ went to shit
>>14714341
>tfw your Pontiac Firebird Trans Am is an LS1
its "history" is being a GM parts bin with a multitude of engine options.
>not 400 cube SBC
>>14706097
>Only a "400" engine.
>In a T/A
>Downsized to 5.3L "cracked cylinder heads or your money back" for some low end boost.
>Not even 7 liter master race.
Cum on nigga step it up.
>channel makes well done videos about interesting cars and their owners
>/o/ hates it
Is there anything you faggots like?
>>14715827
Hate. They like hate.
>>14706097
Pretentious
>>14706475
You forgot
>Out of focus closeup
>Clip of owner doing something while looking very forced
>>14715827
Jay Leno's Garage
>>14713485
Alright, from now on I'll just watch 2 hour 5 part videos of dudes taking engines apart.
