      Not really. Jaws 4 had every advantage an 80s summer movie could have. An Oscar nominated actor, an experienced director who’d made at least one classic (the original Taking of Pelham 123), and the lead actress was the studio president’s wife, meaning a comparably bigger budget than most franchise films. For 1987 context, Jaws 4 had a bigger budget than Lethal Weapon, Dream Warriors, and Jason Lives combined. People bag on it because it’s phenomenally sloppy filmmaking by people that know how to do better, but you can tell don’t care and were in it for 2 months in the Bahamas on Universal’s dime.

      It's all about taste and opinion. You can have a critic eating some random disgusting trash and saying it's good because its unique and has a particular taste because some chef made it and they are just pretentious.
      There's chefs that don't critique others foods because it wouldn't be fair.
      There's critics that just judge things on what they like and enjoy, without looking at the dumb presentation and difficulty to make the food, giving a nice fried chicken a better score than some escargot with sauce from baby albino goat and hand picked berries from the mountaintops of Mt everest during a blood moon on the date 6/6/66.
      And then there's normal people that eat normal stuff and know what they enjoy and is what makes the 99.99% of the profits of restaurants.
      Then there's madame web, a piece of 2$ raw meat, served while the feminist banshees "sing" to you by screaming like crazy people, while plopping red paint from their vaginas (yes.

    Chris, I have to say this man after being a follower and subscriber of yours for as long as I can remember.
    Never feel bad about or straight out REFUSE to criticize something harshly when that piece of media deserves it. The second you do that you are no longer a reviewer.
    And thats not "bashing" Madam Web. Thats telling it like it is and you need to continue to do that to maintain credibility. People will question if you are being kind to something else for other reasons besides the merits of the media if you refuse to criticize harshly when warranted. Madam Web is a bait and switch, its a waste of money, its a blantant cash-in from untalanted hacks with some of the most shockingly bad writing in any superhero film to date. People need to know that.
    I feel that because you are a filmmaker you act as if you cant do certain things anymore or cant now do your job as effectively anymore, which shouldnt at all be the case. YOU CAN DO BOTH STILL CHRIS. Who are you worried about offending so much? This video was so much soft trending when its not warranted. You talked about everything else BUT this steaming pile of crap. When we want to know what YOU thought of it. That why we clicked. Thats why we watch your videos.
    Never forget that for every shitty writer continuing to do movies like these there are 1,000s of other writers and directors (like yourself) who are trying to make ends meet who are far more talented getting passed over.
    You owe it to your audience to review something harshly when it deserves it, not tip toe around it or side step it. And just because you "bash" a film doesnt mean you are "bashing" the person or people who made it. Sometimes its warranted so all those involved can do better or step out of the way so that others can take their place.
    Dont be afraid to say what needs to be said Chris. We want to be Stuckmanized. ❤

    It’s irrelevant how difficult it is to make a film. If it’s bad, it’s bad. If it’s good, it’s good. Sony torpedoed the film because they start with a target market, and then try to retrofit an IP, and it just doesn’t work. They did the same thing with Ghostbusters 2016. It was destined to fail from inception. How difficult the film was to make, is irrelevant. They were trying to pound a square peg through a round hole and that’s what killed it.

      I agree and to add my problem with Madame Web, it feels like much of production didnt work hard on it. It's not something like The Room/Niel Breen where they tried but lack of skill/talent makes it bad and wrong while still comically watchable. Madame Web is clearly a cash grab to keep the license, but, it feels like the once all the spiderman actors didn't want to appear everyone just did one take, one edit, one draft, ADRd some lines and called it a day. These are supposed to be professionals with the intent of solely to entertain the audience and nothing else. Even Morbius tried to be something despite Sonys intent and that's why it's laughed at, because it's awful, Leto is trying here, the writers tried to make something interesting and it isn't, the CGI artists tried to make their work watchable. Madame Web just didn't try in almost all levels and that's why it should be bashed.
      I definitely agree with you but Madame web, it felt like no one tried.

      @@Deagnetic Yes, I think Chris is wrong that everyone in the industry *always* works hard and therefore you shouldn't crap on a movie just because it turns out shitty. A movie like this deserves to be shit on unless you want them to keep putting out the same effortless cash grabs. He mentions that the writers of this and Morbius were probably dealing with tons of studio interference, but who knows if that's actually true? What if the writers also put in zero effort themselves? Then they would deserve criticism just as much as the studio.
      But even if it's true that the writers' hands were tied by the studio, then you should be criticizing the studio itself for making such a shitty movie (I realize that's essentially what he did here, but it's obviously not just the studio itself that caused this). Just because *some* of the people involved *might* have been making an effort doesn't mean that everyone was, and the only thing we get to see is the final product, which was bad - thus, the product itself deserves criticism. Hell, you don't even need to point fingers at the actual writers or actors; you can just say that the writing itself was poor, the dialogue was poor, the CG was poor, etc., and it doesn't matter whose fault it actually was. That way, you're just criticizing the movie itself and not just shitting on some random individuals who were involved with it - which is really how Chris should be doing it.
      To be fair to Chris, he's right that plenty of other reviewers will shit on the movie - but that shouldn't preclude him from just telling the truth about how he feels. It almost seems like he's "lying by omission" by trying to avoid certain topics of discussion. It's just kinda weird and seems a bit disingenuous - I know he genuinely doesn't want to bash anyone, but it still comes across as a bit disingenuous to the viewer. This sort of video is something you'd expect to see from one of the actors in the movie, not a third-party, unbiased reviewer.
      It's just weird to see Chris doing this. He's admitted that it's partly because he's afraid that if he shits on certain movies/people, he might not get to work with them in the future, so this is basically just being done out of fear. If that's the case, he should just stop being a movie reviewer, honestly.
      I stopped watching a little while ago because it just got kinda boring. This is the first video of his that I've seen in like 5 months, and now I remember why I decided to stop watching. It's unfortunate, because he was one of my faves for a long time.
      This video was essentially just trying to explain why he stopped being "negative," and the reason is basically "everyone's hands are tied by the studio, and therefore..." Therefore what? Therefore you're going to avoid criticizing movies altogether?

You are arguing a hypothetical situation without any evidence if it even applies to the movie here. What is the evidence in what capacity the studio affected the outcome of the movie? No one said the people who made the bad movie suck, just that the movie is bad. The main purpose of a movie is to entertain. If it fails to do that why should one's judgement be more lenient because of how hard it was to make? No one is yelling "Say the thing!

    • @Zorbonoult
      @Zorbonoult Před 3 měsíci +4

      ​@@ethanbank1​The current discussion is on the topic whether it matters or not if it was hard to make a movie. And my categorical answer same as the guy you first replied to is no. There are so many arguments to that. Just scroll down and skim through this video comment section and you'll find plenty examples.
      Now about studio meddling that you brought in unrelated to the first topic. I do not deny it. I want evidence in this particular case that it it the sole reason for "movie bad". And on that I'm not so sure. I don't know how you can call a video of someone painting a hypothetical situation proof?! Again without evidence.
      My evidence on the other hand is just as you said: I googled, read articles, watched interviews form the red carpet premiere even. There are interviews of the director being proud of their work on the movie. There is an interview of the writers on the red carpet explaining how they wrote the script. Also being factually wrong about the source material. I watched their previous work. There are interviews with the cast talking about the process. And none of this matters if the movie was good or bad.
      So I wouldn't put the blame solely on the studio. It was a team effort to produce this drivel. As a wise man said "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity." or incompetence may I add.
      "My bad observation" - yes I know there are a lot of simpletons getting a lot of joy and satisfaction from blank statements as "movie bad". And a lot of viewer hungry reviewers ready to give it to them. Again that's not the main topic but something that you brought in the conversation. That's why I disregarded it.

    • @Zorbonoult
      @Zorbonoult Před 3 měsíci +3

      ​@@ethanbank1 I would argue that you are the one struggling to stay on topic constantly steering the conversation and bringing points unrelated to it. The comment for the red carpet was to point out incompetence, mainly on the part of the writers. And the seeming pride of the end product - something I wouldn't expect from someone whose creative process was disrupted from the studio in a big way. If it was so egregious I would expect the creatives to express it in some way. Remember the whole Zac Snyder complaining and campaigning for the Justice League - Snyder cut? There are other instances of directors leaving projects like Scott Derrickson from Doctor Strange, Patty Jenkins form Thor, Edgar Wright from Ant-Man for example. Or maybe it was egregious meddling, but the creatives didn't care and rolled with it. Why? Maybe they didn't care to making a good movie. Or they are too incompetent to know what a good movie is?
      I would argue that everyone has plenty of stuff to care about daily. A lot of it is very serious stuff. And when someone goes to the cinema pays ticket and buys overpriced popcorn (or does does so for their entire family) usually expects to receive a good movie in return and escape their lives for a couple of hours. Not to receive the burden of caring about some arbitrary movie maker and how hard their job was. I produce stuff in my work every day. If it is bad and the client buying it complains they sure don't care how much sweat I poured into it or if my boss told me to make it that way. As it should be. Same goes for movie makers. All that matters in the end is the quality of the end product. And when I turn to a critic hoping to find out if it's worth my time and money I expect to find opinion backed by arguments. Not a story of studios bad - creatives good.
      "But reviewing these days goes beyond what you see and start blaming the people who made it.'"
      So people who made bad stuff should be exempt form criticism? Why wouldn't they carry responsibility for what they made? Because the studio forced them? - which I don't believe in this case. Just look at their great work until now: Morbius, Gods of Egypt, Dracula Untold. Plenty of dots to draw a line for the quality of their work. Or the studio meddled each and every time?

Put a "it is trash", "killing our childhood heroes, "woke garbage" in cap and yellow in your thumb and get a tons of clicks. Instead of this, Chris decided to focus more on the possitive aspects and the things he really loves, and to help smaller or less well known movies and creators. And Chris know that, due to that, due to not appealing to our natural drive for drama and polemic, he would loose clicks and money, and yet decided to do it anyway because he rather do what he loves. He stills does criticism, this entire video is pointing problems in the industry, but he did so without curse and buzz words, without making a fuzz about it.

      This is the kind of video you make when you are afraid of being blacklisted, which is odd, as I could see blacklisted occurring more from blaming the “studio” and letting the talent and creatives 100% off the hook in order to satisfy a fanfiction in hour own bloated head.

    If you can't be honest and genuine with your reviews Chris regardless if you work in the same field or not as other filmmakers, why did you choose to become a reviewer/critic in the first place? Films are not exempted from criticism even if they may or may not have had a bad production history. If the final product given to the viewing audience is shit for them, they have the right to say it sucks. If I had a friend that made a major film and I didn't like it, I'll be honest and tell him its not good in a healthy, constructive manner of course. Can't handle being critiqued? Maybe don't get involved with film or anything that might warrant criticism from other people. Criticism is part of life and not a bad thing. Everyone involved in making a certain film will not improve if you give excuses as to why the film is terrible. Excuses can only go so far.

    Remember when Sonic the Hedgehog’s trailer released? The design was horrendous. Intense criticism followed.

    Criticism is needed. Causes people to change, sometimes for the better.
    I started a new business, faced criticism for my running of said business at the beginning of its formation. I listened, was humble, and took the criticism. It’s now more successful than I imagined.

So of course they think the bare minimum is "listening to fans" when even as a casual non-fan I can see glaring inaccuracies with the source material.

The abundance of bad reviews for these types of movies are exactly why these types of movies are still being made.
