"williams mum is so real it freaks people out" so true. as a viewer i felt confronted by her or something
ARE YOU KIDDING??? I LOVE her!!!!! Best wishes
“They don’t even know what it is to be a fan. Y’know? To truly love some silly little piece of music, or some band, so much that it hurts.. ". This is my favorite part. It describes how I feel about music & my heroes that I love making it.
“For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.” Ephesians 2:8-9
“for ‘everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.’”
Romans 10:13
She’s talking about boning the rock stars…
When I watched this film for the time I didn't really understand it fully. I was too young and my knowledge of English was limited. But I felt it. Felt every scene and somehow understood it.
Almost Famous is masterpiece. Caught it when it was released at the theater and Ive watched it again countless times since. It just never gets old.
My parents had this movie on DVD and I watched it for the first time when I was only like 7 years old but I’ve watched it multiple times since then. It’s just in my heart now. I never get tired of it
Man I can’t even explain how much I love this movie
Ooh, something I just noticed. Penny almost leaves her sunglasses behind, but then remembers them. Maybe this is a parting gesture of her unwillingness to abandon artifice or something or other.
She's gotta be cool maybe?

found this channel today, and have now seen all in this series
+MrBabybaboon That's what I'm talkin' bout!
+MrBabybaboon im in the process of the same thing.
I'm in the same boat lol
+Wisecrack I did the same thing but as you know , don't say goddamn any more ;) thank you. you guys are great , I'm a big film analysis nerd
Hey you earth binge watcher !
I am happy to inform you that I am from the Cool planet called Morocco.
Marouane Fawzi
Love your hashish.....best on the planet!
brilliant!
Watching this only made me love this movie even more
this guy is a fucking genius. When aliens make contact, I want him on the front line.
I wholeheartedly agree! Next up will be Miley Cyrus.
Which front line though? :o
I love the scene in the movie where the three variably-ages groupies decide to "deflower" the main character. Let's see how people would react if the genders were switched.
BINARYGOD ikr
It was consensual though so I don’t really see how it can be THAT much of a problem
I'll have you know, Wormuloid, I was subscribed before it was cool.
Mark Arandjus CZcams hipster.
Afro Samurai No. He's way to cool to be a hipster. He was a hipster *before* it was cool. He burnt his mouth because he drank his coffee before it was cool. He once contemplated suicide, and he almost succeeded by drowning himself in the main stream.
What I'm saying is this (this and an excuse to tell some awful hipster-related jokes). This guy is on a level of cool mere mortals like us cannot and will never be able to contemplate. By this point he is basically God. Don't try to bring him down, man. Just accept his omnipotent coolness.

Maybe the best episode yet in terms of analysis.
Almost Famous is in my humble opinion the greatest piece of cinematic art ever created. I've noticed the film really seems to resonate with people who appreciate having a passion something. Those are my kind of people!
I prefer what you did in this video: extensive analysis while leaving most of the jokes to the pre-analysis. That way we get to understand better what you are really trying to get across
Gosh I just love these videos. This one was on point as per usual.
I love this movie. It never gets old. Great video, as always!
I quite agree...
These videos are great, keep up the amazing work. You can tell that you enjoy doing what you're doing.
This is the best Earthling Cinema I've seen yet! I used to see this movie in the rental stores back in the day but never watched it. I'm definitely going to see it now that I know what it's about.
Here's my Earthling Cinema wish list:
Brazil
Mulholland Drive
Magnolia
I've never heard/seen Wisecrack videos, now I'm binge watching this series~
I love this series! You made a convincing enough argument for me to show my friends Old Boy! You guys should do Werckmeister Harmonies!
I'm wondering when Napoleon Dynamite will be done? I'm sure it would make an interesting specimin.
This was amazing, as usual.
Do Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind!
Conway79 j
Great idea.
A little annoyed as I was developing a concept exactly like this for a channel, but you're doing an amazing job! I binged every single review you've done. Well... time to up my game, I guess. Keep up the good work, buddy!
So, I'm 5 years late to this party. The analysis on this ties together so many threads of this movie. And the analysis is so good, some of the weirdness becomes more entertaining than if it continued. Your odd beginning suckered me into watching a 4 minute analysis of a movie and I cannot wait to watch more of these and learn more about movies.
I had almost nope hope for this video before I saw it. But its insightful and concise. Blew me away!
You know, this series is so original that whenever I watch an episode, I like it.
this was awesome. much love, wormuloid
Such a great series. Every episode is great !
Excellent review Wormuloid
I like the conclusions you draw about the inauthenticity of people and their desire to escape into fantasy
Keep up the good work friend :^)
Great video! This is such a cool concept.
A fantastic analysis of this movie. Thank you!
Do *Grave of the Fireflies*!! It would be an original choice for your first analysis on an animated film.
I think that might be the only way to make that movie any less sad.
I think that would be too dark
I love this analysis of Almost Famous. You should consider doing an episode on 'The Neverending Story'.
Dude, your so cool and real!
That’s my favorite movie and you joking about it is incendiar!
My fave movie ever. I was listening to this video while walking on the street and started laughing like a mad person 🤣
i of course love this movie as i love this channel. honest and unmerciful
I'd love to see a Harold and Maude episode!
ABSOLUTELY, I would love to see Harold and Maude as well!!
Thank you for uploading another fantastic movie analysis! And, as several people have already mentioned, I'd appreciate it if you guys could do an analysis on Birdman
This was a good idea for a series! I can dig it!
Wisecrack Cliff's Notes....very nicely written and delivered
Great ep! I'd love an Earthling Cinema about Adaptation.
HILARIOUS! You have a new fan.
What is the metaphor in this film? I've watched it 4 times and it goes over my head every single time!
I'll be honest, when wisecrack announced this series I thought it was going to be stupid! But this quickly became my favorite youtube series, great job! Keep up the awesome work!
Never even seen this movie, and yet you made it sound cool.
This was pretty cool you guys.
I just fell in love with a pair of lude gulping eyebrows 0_o
This flick has a warm soundtrack tho ;)
I don't know who your writer is, but the jokes are just on point in every episode. Give him a big kiss from me!
I want moreeeeeee. Even watched the ones on movies I haven't seen now.
Philosoraptor I absolutely love your name
Brilliant as always
Aww! You did my favorite movie!! Thank you!!!
I recently saw this movie randomly on to and oh my god it's a hidden gem
Starting to think this is the best show on Wisecrack :)
LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT! can you guys do The Wolf of Wall Street ? Thank you!
top 10 films of all time to me i can put it any anytime anywhere
My mom showed my this movie when I was younger she just passed away not to long ago but this is and always willl be one of my favoites
I loved the anger/bitterness when talking about the ease of writing.
He left out the best line in the film "What kind of beer?"
Please do Being John Malkovich!
so was this the first one? rare to see a series get the formula right on the first go. well done i say!
No it isn't. They have videos dating back to 2014
Oh, a prelude to a Quaalude.
love Earthling Cinema.
Do "The Room"
Nice review Love your eyebrow! 🙃
Please do an episode on Clerks.
Oh god yes, I can just imagine him describing the blowjob subplot.
He's not even supposed to be here today.
i^m from morocco, i love your channel, ur all welcome to my country
Best one yet!
Binge watching all of these
Best series on youtube
I've been to Morocco. They also have a Morocco on Earth, which I plan to visit someday as well.
Next examine Shutter Island, that movie ending reminds me of this one.
can we get a serious analysis of Wiseau's infamous "The Room"? I'm not even asking as a joke i would seriously love it if you guys dug into that...if there's anything TO analyze.
Very insightful
great video!
This channel is so cool
Now at their mythical stage, I would love to try a lude!!!
You Garyx Wormuloid are a Golden God!
This is great!
I still can't believe you chose to analyse this film. This is one of the most self explanatory films I've ever seen.
+Simple1DEA This was probably just a little quikie for them, as most of the people watching this (myself included) haven,t seen the movie.
Hell, maybe the point of this video was actually to straight up tell us about the themes themselves, rather than explain movie.
Please make an episode for the movie, "Friday". I would love to see that!
morocco !! i'm from morocco xDD omg the images you shared about it.....
I was hitting the subscribe button before it was cool.
Now it's just too mainstream.
What about classics like, "It's a Wonderful Life"?
Frances McDormond (mom) is one of the greatest actresses since Katy Hepburn! - would love to work with her and Phillip Hoffman was a great up-coming actor that fried on Heroin - sad I liked working with him on the Big Lebowski - miss him.
On a scale of 1 to 5, this video was cool
Favorite series!
LMAO!! This video is hilarious! However the title is quite misleading. I was hoping to hear some mysterious hidden meaning behind the film, but he just basically describes the movie, while adding a few humorous comments... Wasn't quite what I was expecting, but still a good video...
Hi I'm TOTO from planet Morocco, I love your show. thnx, or as we say in our planet "lahfdeeeeeeeek"
Golden God, in fact, is the most valuable God (unless, of course, a uranium God is out there somewhere or an Praesidium God)
Excellent work, Greux Alien dude. Best review yet.
The eyebrows alone got me to subscribe.
Your eyebrows are amazing.
Nice job
Thanks for making me laugh!!! =]
Oh jeeze, the brows. I watched from most recent to this one so I'm not used to these.
I think the Wisecrack guys will have a lot of fun with Waking Life or A Scanner Darkly.
FUCK YEAH!!! One of my favorites and best of all time.
This guy is brilliant :)
You should do Equilibrium next.
