The Critical Drinker

I don't think I'd be happy if this was ever cancelled. I'm still crying over Future Man ending prematurely. Let's hope the Critical Drinker looks at The Haunting of Bly Manor, perhaps he could fix it?

The name explains what channel is all about it is a critical analysis of films , even if he finds something to be fun or fans likes them he will still review the weak points in a movie. Being facisnated and excellent in story telling him self his analysis is often educational and interesting to listen to. However with so many garbage being marketed by the main IP s you can think he is repeating stuff but the problem isnt with him its these studios repeating the same mistakes in almost similar fashion many people have many opinions on why this is happening to the movie industry and I agree with similar critics its not politics but combination of bad writing too much focus on politics and also shoving heavy political messages.

Many reboots and rehashes got the movies they recreated wrong but in this era it has become worse and critics like him do analyze why it might be happening and if fans can understand these simple shortcomings the studios should too. It might fix the industry again or movie industries from other countries will start to dominate your movie industry and in the end you might lose your soul as well.

There's not much to say beyond the headline... i wish hollywood would hire him before they turned their rubbish scripts into rubbish movies.

Mainstream cinema has gone downhill with the blockbuster hyperactive but forgettable spectacle taking precedence over meaningful, emotive and character driven scripts.

The critical drinker provides a great analysis with some good laughs along the way - give this gentlemen a TV show!

The Critical Drinker is one of my favorite channels on YouTube. This guy is a blast to listen to and his take on things, especially his reviews, are particularly interesting since he's a professional fiction writer. Absolutely TOP NOTCH content, can't recommend this guy's channel enough! That's all I have to so, go away now.

Critical Drinker has potential but wastes it entirely.

He used to make videos about why movies these days are bad and gives us reasons why. I desperately watched these videos to try to learn how to be a better writer when my friend was gone. My friend used to critique my writing.

Here's the thing. It didn't work. Making a bunch of generalizations about characters does a good story not make but he's the writer guy and that's ok.

Every video is pretty much the same. Insert (Generic Superhero movie, Summer popcorn flick,A24 indie) Give a spiel about (The message) Pretend to know better. Pretend to care. Complain about (Insert minority group or woman) for a duration of 3 minutes (Insert sound effect). Complain about the CGI (Insert Go away now)

Is anyone surprised though that these movies he reviews are mediocre? How many times are you gonna get mad at Superhero movies?

Sometimes he's funny. Other times he just panders to dudes that are forever stuck in 2002."I love Spiderman and LOTR so therefore you must love it" Acts like he's seen Morbius. (He has not seen Morbius)

I get this guy's generic reviews in my feed. It's as bland as an 80's guitar riff and formulaic as a Scooby Doo episode.

And a fanbase so rabid they make Sonic fans blush.

But where else are you gonna get movie reviews? Ben Shapiro? Go away now.
