still my favorite lindsay ellis video. on my 7th viewing.
Anything Disney related gives me an aneurysm
“Cats” makes “ the night man cometh” look like a dark, dramatic work of art
"Jerkules" "I hate that kid" LMFAO
homestuck lawsuit the sequel
So.... Is Lindsay stealing phrases from Folding Dan a kind of a in-joke? That's the second time I notice it and it starts getting on my nerves
No one gives a shit about your books. No one really even gives a shit about your work outside Channel Awesome.
Petah wackson
Just because a female protagonist has a love interest, doesn’t make them weak!!!
45:00 what baffles me is how watching HOTD season 2, you can clearly see how consequences in this world works, 200 years later and nothing is the same.
"Song teaches Sung to sing" is by far the most hilarious moment on any youtube video ever.
I wish people would stop talking about HIV/AIDS as if it's something that's over, and only affected gay men. It's a major current pandemic with over 40 million people infected, with young women most at risk. Also HIV and AIDS are not the same: AIDS is the final stage of HIV infection.
PJ's LOTR was so monumental. I still don't understand how he fumbled so hard. He loves this world. Why burn it down?
I also bet, after Weinstein's attempt to RUIN LOTR, Jackson was less than pleased about him profiting from these movies. In LOTR, PJ got his way and we should all be thankful for that. It seems the studios had their way and they really ruined some sacred part of my childhood. The Hobbit was the first book I read because I (mistakenly) thought it was the place to start. I actually recommend you start with LOTR, then Hobbit, Then Silmarillion. There's also some posthumous releases from Tolkien that are short and made only possible through his son that are INCREDIBLE afternoon reads. The Children of Hurin is such an incredible book and is probably the most underrated part of Tolkien's world today.
Lindsay reminds me of my aunties on my dad's side. I feel like that's the reason why I like her and watch her videos so much. It feels like I'm related to her.
"had some shellfish that didn't agree with him" 😂 I rofld
The ending scene with two farmers which show
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Rent is the only musical, aside from Dear Evan Hansen, that makes me actively angry for the damage it did to the cause it was trying help.
im so glad i dont feel crazy for disliking rent, ive never heard any critiques for this show im close to hating
You totally left out the (shitty) "Phantom of Budapest" with Maximilian Shell? Why?
I am halfway through this video, laying in bed, recovering from Covid and struggling to breathe I’m laughing so hard 😂😂😂😂 I’ve always been a big PTO fan, saw it on Broadway a couple of times and always heard this was a shit show but had no idea just how bad it actually was! You’re hilarious!
The thing I hate about ptsd ghaston is that he is in a scenario where a woman he likes is being possessed by a monster and all of a sudden it isn't him being a predator hunter but an actual hero who wants to actually save someone. because without context the idea of a woman being abducted by a werewolf essentially is terrifying and his reframing as a war hero would almost demand he takes action in a scenario where a woman from the village is abducted.....
I mean, we DO have good art right now, it's all from the niche genres where marginalized people congregate. Unfortunately, the great art does not get rid of the shit we go through.
Lindsay. I love your videos. But your grasp of law here is tenuous as best. Cases that are settled out of court *CANNOT* result in a legal precedent. That's just not how it works.
A case being dismissed for a "lack of prosecution" does NOT imply that it is dismissed with prejudice. I *can* result in a dismissal with predudice, but it can also result in a dismissal without prejudice.
I just noticed that this episode of SLIDERS is also the only one i ever saw
I keep forgetting that this film is meant to be set in the 80s. It could not look more like 2005
Ah yes, that fun time when the fans are smarter than the writers.
33:00 end of Sopranos spoilers
I love how twilight/ Stephanie Meyer core her makeup is 🤩🤩
Independence Day was the first to establish that spaceships have shields and weapons make powering-up sounds? What??
Justice for Joel Schumacher
"Pitt bull-elf hybrid, Tom Hardy." - MOST accurate description, EVER!!!!🩶
I think SOAD deserves a little more respect, but I do understand that the drummer became pretty cringe.
Just finished Apostles of Mercy, time to binge-watch Lindsay Ellis (again)
While I agree that Butler was the wrong choice to play Erik, your comparisons to Crawford & Karimloo (IMOHO) are not valid! For me, the only ALW Phantom IS Colm “Jean Valjean” Wilkinson! (Toronto cast) As far as, “Love Never Dies”… I enjoy it more than the first offering. (Except for, when seeing it LIVE, they replaced my favorite song, “The Beauty Underneath”.) The Englund version is lame, but definitely has moments of dark/gory fun. Anyway… To each their own. Thanks!
26:47 No, Lindsay. Faye Dunaway played Joan Crawford in "Mommie Dearest".
30:00 made me cackle so hard
The song Till I hear you sing is probably the only best thing about this musical, while the rest is just🤦
3:00 ITS THE H BOMB
...Am I weird for wanting a full video of nothing but the dramatic reading of the fanfic from the opening?
Man, the beginning had me clutching my invisible pearls lol. But I want to know what this is about
lies everybody knows borat now and know he is an actor playing a part he would have been better off playing a new character
Daenerys for Palestine
Too many cooks scratches an itch that I didn’t know was there. It’s so emotionally satisfying
That was the main thing I remember about Moana too, that she ultimately solves the problem by digging into her cultural traditions rather than diverging from them
I had no Idea there were more Aladdin movies beyond the Aladdin movie :v
No, that's incorrect. Walt NEVER traveled to London to speak with Travers. Never. In fact, they barely knew each other in person. Only a very few times in person did Walt and Travers meet face to face. He never traveled to London to meet Travers. That exclusively the movie. The majority of the conversations between the two in the film were actually done by letters and phone calls. He was hardly there in person after maybe two weeks.
Never wanted to read these books, until you just summarized it! ALIENS? I’m here!
The change from "Nostalgia Chick" to "Nostalgic Woman" is comically woke.
I have to disagree because I really liked Anastasia. Apart from Mulan, I’d rather watch this movie instead of the other Disney Princes films :P And yeah, NO. Shrek is perfect because of its jabs at the overdone fairy tale adaptations lol
