  1. I can't say #TheCriticalDrinker is right or wrong until the movie comes out...

    ..but it has some good points.

    It looks like this is a movie speared by Hollywood rather than Nolan itself. Who knows if it's a favor for someone at this point.

  6. #TheCriticalDrinker is on point: this is a bet on financial power.

    My bet? #AvengersDoomsday is going to show the industry that superhero movies are dead, no matter the amount of money is thrown to the screen.

  11. The Critical Drinker Is Everything Wrong with Star Wars Discourse

    Today we explore The Critical Drinker, his lies about Star Wars and The Acolyte, and his entire […]

  12. Anyone holding onto the shibboleth that the Critical Drinker is part of the 'alt-right to fascist pipeline' - as someone here tried to tell me a few months back - needs to watch his latest video on the irrelevance of contemporary Star Trek. Where he specifically praises the role of characters like Uhuru, LaForge and Sisko as inspiring young people of colour to pursue STEM or leadership careers.

    If that's subtle white supremacy folks, it's pretty goddamn subtle.

  20. "[In Falling Down] Bill... represents every person who ever fell down and couldn't get back up again. Every person who followed the rules and did what everyone expected, and got punished for it. Who did everything right and still got screwed over by a system that was stacked against them.

    Who spent their entire life striving for something better, only to discover that they were 'not economically viable'."

  24. I just noticed that The Critical Drinker is now publishing videos on PeerTube as well as Goggle's ThemTube;

    review.peertube.biz/c/critical

    Sign of the times?

    FYI I like watching the drinker's videos for the same reason I like watching stand up by Jimmy Carr or Ricky Gervais; I want to be used to hearing opinions I disagree with, especially when its ok to laugh at them. Also, I might occasionally learn something (even a stopped clock is right twice a day, as they say).

  28. I think #TheCriticalDrinker sums up the current (and probably final) state of #StarWars as a franchise in a few sentences:

    > "It's that hot girl you dated once in high school who now has three kids by three different dads and lives off welfare checks..."

  30. "It's a classic example of South Park's ability to present both sides of an argument fairly, make fun of the most extreme and ridiculous elements, and suggest that maybe, - just maybe - there's a sensible middle ground to be found. Screaming 'woke' at anything with even a hint of diversity and progressive ideas is just as dumb and unproductive as trying to race and gender swap every character in sight."

  34. "... the boys pointing out that they've got no problem whatsoever with a character like Miles Morales, who was created with his own unique personality and backstory. Instead of just being a lazy race-swap of an existing character. Hammering home the simple but often misunderstood point, that well-written characters who happen to be diverse are a perfectly good thing, that no reasonable person can object to."

Anyone who has been told The Critical Drinker is a YT reactionary, who hates all movies that positively represent women or minorities, please watch his video recommending Everything Everywhere All At Once. A movie whose central characters are immigrants from China, including a lesbian daughter:

    He criticizes movies that are badly made, and points out that diverse representation doesn't guarantee good storytelling, production, or acting.
