 Why can't you just like the movie? It's a comment I get from time to time on YouTube, and I just find it incredibly ridiculous. Mainly because I'll spend five to ten minutes talking about the reasons why a film didn't work for me. So to say all that, to put the time and effort it takes to get the movie clips, to edit the film, you know, I'm spending hours on this shit, and then to have someone go into the comments with one sentence, why don't you like movies? Why don't you just like the film, Adam? Why don't you pay attention to what I said, and then you'll know the answer, you moron! Here's the lowdown, ass. Most critics or people that have a high opinion on film or what they think makes a good movie at the end of the day are typically really big fans of movies to begin with. What? I know that's hard to believe. It's kind of like a food critic. You don't expect him to go to the local BK broiler, get himself a whopper with chi, and walk away from that experience saying, man, that was one of the greatest burgers I ever had, or, wow, I really enjoyed that meal. He'd be horrible at his job! Now, I myself don't have any issue with the whopper. This isn't an ad, although I'd gladly accept payment from Burger King. I'm also not a food critic. And to even take it a step further, it's not like I'm even an official critic. I don't have like a license to critic anywhere. I'm just someone that really likes going to the movies. That's it. I like talking about the movies. I like pointing out the pros and cons, and seeing what worked and what didn't, and giving it an overall score in my mind at the end, thinking, you know what, this wasn't half bad. It could have been better, but as it stands, I liked it. Or, man, they really dropped the ball on that one. This isn't hard to figure out. But what the hell kind of a comment is just like the movie? What kind of lame, boring-ass person is that? And why would you want to watch that person on YouTube? Hey, so how'd another film I really liked? 10 out of 10. Wow, this movie was great. I have zero issues with it at all. Thanks for watching. Make sure to jab that subscribe button, hit that notification bell, and I'll see you next time, bros. Maybe I should do an experimental channel where I am like that, where I just talk highly about every film that comes out, give myself an alias, and that would be that. Hey, another great movie. Thanks for jumping into the channel. I hope you stick around. We got a ton of awesome stuff coming up. It's all great. It's all good news on this end. I would die inside, but really there's not much left there in this empty husk of a man that once was. What's even more comical is I consider myself somewhat lenient on films. I like more than I would say a good amount of people on YouTube seem to, judging from the comments. I like Terminator Dark Fate. I could put that slogan on a t-shirt and probably get dragged in some states. Now, you can make a good chunk of coin hating on all movies, ragging on them, thinking they all suck, finding some sort of agenda with them. That's not what I'm here for. You know what? I'm looking at this wrong. I shouldn't take it as constructive criticism. I should look at it as a comment half full. A way to live my life going forward. Say I'm stuck in traffic with someone for a few hours and they're getting upset. I should just turn to them and say, Hey, why don't you try liking traffic? Why don't you try liking the car ride for once? Or maybe we're at an amusement park and the ride breaks down with us on it and people are starting to get upset. I would just turn to them and say, Hey, try liking the ride. A lot of engineers and people took the time to make this. You could at least appreciate what's going on. Even if it isn't the ride you expected it to be and it's not working seemingly and it's about to break down. We're all going to die, but still try enjoying it. Ass. Maybe you order a fancy meal from a restaurant only to find out that the chef shit in your food. Try enjoying a meal. Just try it sometime. I'm pained to be entertained. If I'm not entertained, I didn't get my money's worth. That's the transaction. It's not a one-way street where the creator gets to make something get paid and then also get praised on top of that or not criticized. No. I'm a patron at the end of the day. I paid for a service and if I'm not satisfied, well, you're going to hear about it, Buster. Can I be too cynical at times? Yeah, sure, of course. Can I miss something in a movie that maybe would have changed my mind about it? Possibly. It doesn't happen often. But once in a while, I'll go back on a film. I'll say, you know what? I like this more. I know that I make mistakes. I know that sometimes my opinions aren't the the norm or that maybe I am a little bit too jaded on some film properties or just movies in general. But you know what? At the end of the day, I still love the shit out of them and there's still plenty of movies that I like and talk about and recommend. So shut the hell up with your just like a movie comment. Get off my goddamn channel. I got a lot of cool stuff coming up and it's all positive, baby. Make sure to smash that notification bell too. We're going to be liking films left and right. Love that one. Love that one. Love this one. And I love you. And I hope you love me too. So subscribe. Thank you for watching the video.
