  • The problem with people who think a movie is "overrated" is that they'll over-criticize it for the sake of balance. You see that on IMDB where people annoyed that, say, The Dark Knight is overrated will give it a 1/10. That's ludicrous, give it a 3 or 4. It still has fucking credit for effects and filming!

    Super 8 is predictable, the plot isn't very original, but it's still very well filmed, nicely paced and has good acting. I thought it was entertaining which is the least I could ask for.

  • @Wotanraven Also, Galen criticizes TJ for having low expectations, but Galen obviously has too high expectations. Seems like if a movie isn't a masterpiece of groundbreaking original cinema, it just sucks. Super 8 was entertaining, cut it some slack.

  • STFU GALEN

  • From what I've heard, the only good part about Super 8 was the teaser map in Portal 2.

  • Your friend comes across as a pretentious douchebag TJ. That's saying something coming from a pretentious douchebag like myself.

  • i just liked that they played bye bye love-the cars

  • ??????????? its a fuking movie lol

  • fucking hell! look at the rates

  • Of course we want to fuck children if that includes Elle Fanning! Is this guy gay?

  • I thought the ending was cute. The movie, not this video.

  • Everything is unoriginal

  • I love super 8

  • fuck you mid-video ads

  • Whoa! That guy has no ears..

  • Galen's defense against a valid point is to insinuate that TJ's a pedophile? Wow, that's mature articulation at its best.

  • Galen = faggottttttttt8

  • that movie was shit.

  • The trolls a total pretentious, cynical, dick, yeah the monster was total shit but it was a good movie and GAYlen (the troll) is reaching for reasons to hate it.

  • i actually liked the movie very much.

  • If you are writing your review during the film...you are doing it wrong.

  • I support Galen. In fact, I think TJ should have him in every single video from now on. He's an asset to the strength of this channel.

  • It's as if every aspect of Galen's being is directed towards annoying me. As the video progressed I reached the remarkable conclusion that his opinions and personality are actually an even bigger assault on my senses than his ghoulish appearance.

  • Gaylen is the biggest idiot I've ever seen on this channel.. Seriously. Don't ever make another video with him ever again.

  • wait, at 21:07 gaylen says hes been tested and hes done it personally... does this mean he preformed the physiological test then scored himself?

  • Gaylen, so you're the fuck on his cell phone the entire god damned movie....

  • honestly super 8 made me puke in a sock it was so fuck bad

  • Movie was garbage. Biggest disapointment of 2011.

  • Am I the only person that kinda likes Galen?

  • @ScotVideos No I like him as well, I hope TJ makes more videos with him.

  • Fuck you, Gaylen. You're retarded.

  • Gaylen is a total wanker, he needs to stop being so cynical/ going to films like this as he clearly well never enjoy them. Super 8 is a good film, it's entertaining. It's not meant to be art, if you want art - go see Cremaster, it's shit but it's the kind of pretentious twaddle Gaylen would enjoy.

  • Enjoyed the movie a ton. What was this guy smoking?

  • if schindler's list is an awful movie, i don't really know what a good movie is to Galen.

  • If Galen wasn't so up his own ass he'd have been able to notice that girl's father killed the main protagonist's mother. He doesn't want to be beaten over the head with certain aspects, yet when there's something that requires paying attention to the dialogue, and even some foreshadowing, he misses it. Way to go.

  • @theothermeisdead003 Well, it's hard to pay attention to a film when you're busy writing about it on your cell phone throughout the entire screening, awaiting your moment to appear on camera and come off as an experienced film buff/intellectual, expecting that you'll be backed up by the more cynical people of the internet populous (about 90%). Cut him some slack!

  • sure he is abit too critical but much of what he says can i relate too

  • I day gogogo

  • Gaylen look likes the penguin from batman.

  • Im with Gaylen! Thumbs up for you.

  • I think it's spelled Galen, but yeah he sucks.

  • I love arguing in a good mood

  • This gaylen guy seems like an asshole

  • The other guy ran out of things to say after 8 minutes hahaha

  • Lawl I am overcrtiical like Gaylen, but I have said this before hahaha.

  • Gaylen you're forgetting the 1st Atheist Commandment. "Thou shall not argue with TJ."

  • It's sad and kinda creepy watching Galen in this video. Because it reminds me of me when I'm in the midst of a depression. When my brain is blocking out all happiness and intentionally seeking out things to hate.

    Watching Galen reflexively trash everything about the film, lie that he's being open-minded about it, insult TJ when he makes a valid point, misremember things in the film in order to hate them... To me, it genuinely seems like he's suffering from clinical depression.

  • 15:14 She's Dakota Fanning's sister! haha

  • The guy on the right it's well... right, Super 8 has characters that we don't really see anymore in movies, Super 8 could have been a great movie if it wasn't for the poor plot.

  • WHAT THE FUCK??? did you just said that shindler's list is awful?

  • Am I the first to say that the guy in the "Popeye" shirt ripped his shtick from the comic store owner on the Simpsons? Bust on Avatar in the process? Please.

  • Comment removed

  • I love Galen, y'all are stupid

  • I agree with Galen - Super 8 sucked and there was very little originality. For all those people taking the piss out of Galen, you're being entirely ad hominem

  • I'm just saying, I would have reached over and punched Gailen in the head about the third or fourth time he interrupted me to say I'm an idiot.

  • God, Galen is a cunt. Sorry TJ, but this video paints him in such away that makes him seem like a blathering fucknut. Aren't you supposed to be friends? He seems like he's getting pissed off by the fact that you have a different opinion than him.

  • The fact that the military was portrayed as negative in that movie made it feel fresh to me, after 10 years of pro military movies.

  • TJ stop making videos with this douche. "We need to know the details of the mothers death!!!" How does that improve or help the story??? Galin forever alone.

  • This video = Mind F#ck

  • More like GAY-len amiright? Get it, because we hate his mediocrity and abrasive personality... and the beginning of his name is ''ga'' which leaves plenty of room for a decent but overused pun.

  • @chimmychainsaw tbh mate TJ would hate the shit you just said making gay people seem bad by using the word for someone you hate.

  • If you combine TJ's and Galen's reviews, you get an accurate review of what Super 8 actually is.

  • @Draginvry2: That is true if you spoke for the world. But you dont. So fuck you. That movie ruled. Asshole.

  • Ponytail guy probably isn't allowed near schools.

  • You know even though Galen makes some good points, he has absolutely no nuanced descriptions of why he feels the way he does and concedes nothing to the movie. That's not a review, it's really something you could sum up with a roll of your eyes and a groan.

  • It litterly was the worst movie

  • why does everyone hate Galen? he makes good points and is a nice personality for TJ to have some kind of debate with

  • @DesX42S Everyone hates Galen because he has horrible taste in movies.

  • @HamsterPants522 except not many people liked him in the pirates four review video either where him and TJ both agreed that the movie was horrible

  • Comment removed

  • Avatar rocked! How dare u insult Avatar!!!

  • @ecopoliticalczar People only saw it because the effects looked pretty.I go to movies for great dialogue (pulp fiction) good characters (clerks) orignal style (fear and loathing in las vegas) and/or an orignal plot (buried) Avatar lacked all of this.

  • @ecopoliticalczar Nah it sucked. IMHO.

  • The only part that almost made me feel something strong was when they show all the photos of the missing dogs. OMG! Poor dogs ;_;

  • you both seem very smart maybe smarter than me in most of the topics but i know that this movie was so klischee and full of soundtrack ON PURPOSE

    the thing was :

    J:J abrams wanted to make the movie he always dreamed of making of when he saw

    the classic 80s teen movie and that schema useful on every point in which the movie "fails" don't the understandable alien or the bad army reminds you of 80's teenhero movies

  • I lked super 8, me and my girlfriend really enjoyed it.

  • I think TJ is right... And i took the time to capitalize it..... Biiiiiii%@#! (=

  • Im not sure how somone could talk about this so long. I kinda wanna watch though

  • I liked this movie. Galen you need some happiness. BTW why did you critique the film before you saw the entire film? LAME

  • Super 8 was great indeed.♥

  • Unwatchable.

  • @LtStarkiller Depends, the video or the movie? :/

  • WHY ADDS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE VIDEO FUCK YOU

  • Super 8 was super great

    And Galen looks like a asymmetrically peeled potato head with a rat snout

  • @psychointegrator1989 Super 8 was easily the shittiest film I've seen this year.

  • @blibble321: then you are a stupid fucking cunt with no brain. If you only watch gay porn then of course you would not like super 8.

    Now please shut the fuck up, before i mkae you shut up.

  • @ulladullahsen Of course I am. At least I can spell a 4 letter word and do things nursey kids can. Go back to school, little faggot. Come on, come and make me shut up! COME ON!! My friend, I'll tie you to a chair, mouth fuck you to death, then shit in your, cold, dead mouth. Super 8 is shocking and everyone knows that. So suck my fat juicy balls you dumb fucking piece of shit.

  • @blibble321 HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHHAHAHA I'm dying over here. Mouth fuck him to death? Good lord man hahahahhaha.

  • @BaPeZtaBiTcHez Yes. And before you ask, I'm a pyscho.

  • @psychointegrator1989 lmao your so funny, ive havent that hard in awile (not being sarcastic)

  • Comment removed

  • Gaylen, you must have been a handsome and intelligent young man before you had an experiment with your teleporter pods when a rat crawled in and then the teleporter fused you with the rat on molecular genetic level. Now, you have the charisma, personality, and looks expected from that same rat creature you became.

  • @BlackenShade

    LOL "The Fly."

  • @BlackenShade

    It's funny that the top rated comment on here is so concerned with criticizing looks. Yeah, I know you made jabs at his personality, but the first two thirds is built up around physical attributes. You're almost as bad as the so called "progressive liberals" that love to call Ann Coulter "Mann Coulter" because of her looks.

    It's amazing how in insulting a shitbag, you come off worse than the person you criticize.

  • And it makes so much sense that all the kids weren't fucking deaf after that wall was completely blown up when they were in that random house in the 'war zone'.

  • stopped watching at "schindlers list was bad".

  • @Azriel123456789 Youve got a great personality. HE SAID SOMETHING I DISAGREE WITH WITH, IM LEAVING!

  • @Firespyrt Firstly how does that reflect on my personality? Secondly I left after that statement because clearly someone who says something so incredibly retarded that early in a long video is not worth my time. Yes I disagree with him, but by defending him that means you agree, which frankly, makes you have just as little taste as he does. I was not going to waste my time watching someone with no taste review a movie. To say Schindlers List was bad is tasteless to agree or disagree is invalid

  • @Firespyrt Furthermore to reiterate my final sentence: Disagreeing with him on something so universally accepted and hailed as a work of genius does not make his opinion valid because mine is different, neither does it make my correct one wrong for the same reason. It is Fact that schindlers list was well made and deserving of the awards it won. Someone who says it is bad either A: doesn't know what the fuck he's talking about, or B: is trying to sound cool by being different. Not worth my time

  • @Azriel123456789 Fair enough, I bid good day to you my sir.

  • @Firespyrt Yeah, just go fuck off troglodyte. :)

  • I see TJ as a reasonable film reviewer.

    I see TJ's friend as a cynical ass hole who takes no joy from the simple bits of simple movies. There's nothing wrong with dumbing down to watch a movie and take a weight off your mind...

  • I wanna slit Gaylen fukkin throat off and feed it to the alien, but the alien would probably throw up.

  • Galen is retarded.

  • I liked it.

  • This movie wasn't amazing, but Galen is a fucking asshole.

  • I thought the mixture of nostalgia and science fiction was just brilliant.

  • hes looks like a dead pug but i dont hate him

  • Thumbs up if you hate Gaylen!

  • Gaylen's face makes the elephant man look normal! He looks like a half rat half potato!

  • I just saw super-8 today and man what a piece of garbage it was. TJ must be trolling in this video, I can't understand how anyone with half a brain can like this piece of shit.

  • @lolloxor Fuck of and die! :)

  • @lolloxor Why didn't you like it?

  • Leave Gaylen alone!! He Rocks!!!

  • Comment removed

  • @369dc .....no he doesn't.......

  • Who the hell is this fatass ugly twat hippie fuck?

  • @hallcyon You are as charming as an eel. :)

  • Gaylen; Maybe the main reason you didn't like this movie was that you spent all your time writing a fucking summary on your phone. You obviously have no clue about movies when you call Schindler's List awful, and even can't pronounce Close Encounters of the Third KIND, so stop being a cynical fuck and act like you know your shit.

  • It was an entertaining flick. Period. If you are doing an in-depth, hyper critical analysis of a summer block-buster movie about kids and aliens.. You are what is referred to as a 'douche-bag.'

  • @turtlesarecool99

    That's a weird way to spell 'movie reviewer'. I guess you must be using the douchebag spelling of it.

  • @supaflyjohnson I didn't spell movie reviewer... What are you even talking about? Did you even read my comment?

  • I have to admit super 8 was kinda funny but thats it...

  • Gaylen has termites in his smile, Gaylen's soul is full of gunk. :)

  • Stop insulting Galen and then kissing TJ's ass! Galen is his fucking friend.

  • Galen, shut the fuck up.

  • @FreethinkingFTW *in Walt Kowalski voice* YOU shut the fuck up.

  • @FreethinkingFTW your name TOTALLY contradicts your comment

  • Is she the next Dakota Fanning? I laughed my ass off when they said this. She's Elle Fanning, Dakota's little sister.

  • what i have taken from gaylens reviews, if the movie doesnt make him kill himself, then its probably a good movie and i should watch it

  • Shit flows fluently out of Galen's mouth.

  • just watched super 8 and i do have mixed feelings about this movie. I thought that the main characters played thier role, its a pity gaylen didnt answer TJ main question. The first scene was a bit weird, sure the mother died and everything but they didnt tell you how it happened, so i thought this would tie in to the movie plot, which it did with the 2 fathers but they never tell you how, so i was very angry about that. train scene-me laughing at how over the top it was. my fav part-credits :)

  • I love how TJ said that the 'girl' wasn't the new Dakota Fanning. She is Dakota Fannings sister, lol.

  • lol @ all the dislikes

  • I just watched it, I was entertained.

    It was a fair bit disjointed, and the scenes with the monster could certainly be shot from different angles to improve them. Was much better then every summer blockbuster in the last few years.

  • I now believe in reptilians.

    Thank you, Gaylen.

  • One more thing, people are beginning to demand too damn much for their freaking measly 10$ these days. I'm not even saying this as if I'm from the last generation, I'm 16! I'm just saying, these films are made with 100 million + $, and you don't want to cough up 10$ just to see it? Hell, if E.T. never happened and it JUST came out today, revamped with the newest cgi and camera quality, i guarantee it wouldn't do well, because quite honestly, everyone would be thinking *CLICHE*

  • You know, the Gaylen guy DID have his mind made up from the start about this movie, because hell, he started his hateful review in the goddamn theater before the movie ended and his full opinion was completed! What if in the middle of the film his opinion changed but his review so far preached hatred? Oh well, lets continue with the hate. Furthermore, I've seen Super 8, and I can honestly say I enjoyed it.

  • Holy fuck that guy is awful looking, did someone just revive him from the dead?

  • Did I just watch a 26 minute review on a movie I haven't watched? YEP!

    Haters Gonna Hate :D

  • this gaylen guy just fucking over analyzes everything

  • no wonder gaylen doesn't like anything, i'd be pissed all the time too if i had a hard time finding my ears

  • What's Galen's YouTube?

  • TJ is right, I enjoyed the characters but the monster was lame

  • How can a movie FORCE you to do anything?

  • Gaylen, do a review of Kick Ass. If you hate that movie, then there's something wrong with you.

  • Maybe if he spent more time watching the movie and less time writing in his phone he would of enjoyed it.

  • WOW ads halfway through the video???? WTF YOUTUBE

  • @XvXMarathonManXvX Thats how they make their cha$h.

  • The sci-fi elements are a way of moving the plot forward, TJ.

  • WTF Galen, recognizing Elle Fanning's acting ability makes TJ a pedophile?

  • Dude, did that guy watch ANY bit of that movie, or was he too busy trying to brainstorm some witty quips that he could txt himself to read later? He has built up rage about other movies, that he went into this movie just knowing that he could finally vent some of these stale opinions.

  • super 8 WAS fuckin shit...yawn fest...bollocks

  • Best thing about this film is the game that came with its promotional demo. Portal 2.

  • Why can't Gaylen shut the fuck up and wait for his turn? Isn't this Tj's video? Yelling to interrupt Tj while he's actually trying to make a point and talking over him at every opportunity is kind of a douchy thing to do.

  • p.s. gaylen needs to smoke some weed before he sit his ass down in a movie theater

  • wtf, there were a commercial right in the middle of the video

  • Does Galen have his own youtube channel?

    He is entertaining.

  • @SocialOutsider yep. Hallcyon

  • LOOSERS

  • I agree with Gaylen on this one. Super 8 sucked donkey balls.

  • everyone hates gaylen ha

  • He reminds me of Vizzini from The Princess Bride. hah

  • GODDAMN!!!! I had the volume up when i started and when gaylen spoke my fucking dog jumped up and runned away!

    Holy fucking shit TJ ....your friend is clear prove that alien from other planets exists!

  • The comments about Galen are hilarious.

  • Wait, how did George Bush get brung up in here?

  • BTW the story of Super 8 is that it was an idea from Spielberg back right around before they made E.T. and Close Encounters... Super 8 was the original idea, but it got split into these 2 separate ideas. That's why these 3 movies have so much in common. It wasn't the best movie EVER... but it was very good... obviously it stumbles in some places, and reminds us of those other films, but we must remember THIS was the original idea. And from the other comments you guys are playing this for views

  • @MurderedSelf I do believe Gaylen is quite intelligent. It's just that he's fucking annoying. He makes acceptable points from time to time.. But gaylen.. Sometimes you have to sit still and shut the fuck up

  • Gaylen has obviously never met someone who has thrown up after eating something, because generally throwing up because of a certain food you ate drives you off that food for good. Also his opinions are ridiculous.

  • This movie was ET if they beat him and he was freed by the goonies. It's a solid B movie.
