People want entertainment, not propaganda.

"Evil cannot create anything new, they can only destroy what good people have created" J.R.Tolkien
-
“Created by geniuses and inherited by morons” - this is it. A summary of modern times. You have a new subscriber ❤
-
An Englishman and a Scot had a conversation about politics and no one died. Bravo.
-
The Drinkers reviews are more entertaining than the movies themselves. 10/10
-
He hit the nail on the head. With the high cost of film production, Hollywood has evolved from creative production to financial risk management.
-
Ellen Ripley is badass in Alien and Aliens because she is as terrified as the audience is, yet she does what has to be done to survive. That’s a hero.
-
Katharine Hepburn made a career of being a strong Female character over 70 years ago and these people in Hollywood act as if it is something new.
-
Let's face it, the Critical Drinker not only is 100% right, he has a golden voice. He should do audio books
-
ESG scores are why this is happening. Disney can lose money but as long as the boxes are checked, Blackrock funds them!
-
The Critical Drinker is the only movie critic I've come to consistently trust. Great to see him on this show
-
The Critical Drinker is a great critic and an even better author. It’s great to see him get the attention he deserves!
-
The Drinker is awesome. Great to see you both having a chat. You're 100% correct about these movie makers hating their audience. Disney is a masterclass on how to lose a large paying demographic and influencing absolutely nobody. Total ineptitude
-
“Instead of movie stars, we just have characters.” And Hollywood is frantically destroying those characters as fast as possible.
-
One of the biggest iconic characters in cinema is Rocky. He lost the final match, but we know he won something far greater as he faced the challenge and grew as a man from it. We absolutely identify with struggle far more than the hand given win.
-
I feel like our culture peaked in the late 90s. Movies, music, television and video games have all basically stagnated.
-
I think the problem with big Hollywood movies these days is that they start with a checklist (we need x number of female characters, x number of gay characters, etc). They then try to craft a story around that checklist rather than coming up with original ideas or well crafted characters and driving the story organically.
-
Almost every time I see a trailer for a new movie I ask myself “Don’t people in Hollywood read?” There are so many amazing books that could be turned into movies, then again based on the latest I wouldn’t want them to ruin stories & characters.
-
Drinker is the man. Him and Chris Gore are my favorite movie critics. Good to see him getting the recognition!
-
There’s people out there creating new great stories but no studio wants to fund them.
