  Bro this mans star wars series is one of a kind, probably my favorite video essays on youtube.  It really opened my eyes on how much of a masterpiece star wars is.

  This was nothing short of incredible. I’m by no means a huge fan or apologist for Snyder, but this was a rather refreshing, concise, and neutral look at the man’s filmography and what he likes to bring to his films narratively/philosophically. That open-ended nature is frustrating, but it is undoubtedly different. Love that you’re branching out to other content, please keep up the great work.

  What I have always enjoyed about this channel is that it came out of the blue and dropped the hardest star wars analysis videos on the internet. Then continues to make amazing videos

  I love how you chose to focus on Snyder. I feel that him and Lucas are similar in the way they are willing to be stylishly vulnerable... and how their audiences tragically reject it.

  I do like how you did something similar (and quite meta if I'm honest) for the video itself - is it pro-Snyder or anti-Snyder? Neither - it merely presents the two sides just as Snyder does in his own work

  film critics calling anything “politically naive” just sets me off in a way I didnt know existed

  There's a relentless spirit of defiance in both 《300》 and 《Watchmen》 and I love that.

  Your practice of posting high quality, thoughtful videos every couple months is an inspiration

  I have been waiting 6 months for your next release and I was not disappointed. I am much less familiar with Snyder than Stars Wars, but your same artistic and clear way of breaking down directors and their vision was as keen as ever. I appreciate how you do not even give an opinion but instead, like Snyder, present a story that allows our own interpretation.

  I have a problem with a statement like &quot;critics couldn&apos;t decide if it was good or not,&quot; based on an average rating. The truth is more that some liked it and some didn&apos;t. A lack of consensus among critics doesn&apos;t mean they were undecided. It just means the opinions of several individual critics weren&apos;t agreeing on whether it was good or bad. I doubt any of those critics wrote or said &quot;I don&apos;t know if this was good or bad.&quot; That nitpick aside, great video!
