Great video yet again. About Brandos Oscar moment with Little Feather... Did you hear that she was a fake? Her family outted her. She not Native American at all. Worth covering.
Keep up the great videos
I would like you to atleast do some Indian pop culture breakdowns, as a lot of this has made inroad here and i won't lie women voices are there but breakdowns is what is missing.
What's super crazy is that if you watch Brie Larson's earlier roles, she was really good. 21 Jump Street, Scott Pilgrim, Don John, etc. She was charming and charismatic. It makes a lot of sense why she became a star. But then it's like right after Room (2015), she adopted this super flat and boring monotone. It's just a big nosedive and it makes no sense.
In Marvel mythology, Captain Marvel is the legacy of Mar-vell.
Carol was his girlfriend and got her powers straight from him, becoming Ms Marvel.
Monica Rambeau had nothing to do with him, and was named CM only for retaining copyright on the name.
Carol was the right choice.
My point is that Monica was forcibly named CM, due to the need to retain copyright on the CM title.
In addition, Carol was created in 1968 and Monica in 1982.
Carol is the true heir to Mar-Vell and the title of CM.
Brie Larson is classic projection incarnate. She is a privileged, protected person who yells at others about the things she hates inside of her own self.
You've just described most white liberals. They have self hatred under the guise of love for 'the other." Unless of course "the other" doesn't think like a progressive.
Agreed 💯percent ✅
She's almost as worse as ray only differences is that's captain kennedy b*******. 🤔Well Brie larson is in her own world when it comes to Disney when she's not with them she's f****** normal No selfwoke genda do people notice that I started to notice that when she's not. The marvels is gonna bomb Not another good way of Business disney.😎🤦
Feminism and activism is just a way to spew disgusting toxic hatred at certain groups and for it to be deemed acceptable . How many times must we listen to obnoxious , unlikable and spiteful women go on and on and on about how much they hate men and never get challenged or held accountable? Even when the interviewer is male they don't even say anything . Theres lots of footage of well known female celebrities doing this and Its becoming more and more common for women to say it in real life directly to men as well. It gets laughed off mostly and they're given a free pass just because they're women and it just encourages and emboldens these toxic people even more
Then it's our job to keep reminding her until she learns a lesson.
It's not about gender or colors, its about attitude, and how one treats others. There's a reason everyone loves Keanu Reeves.
Even though he claims he isn't quite as lovely as everyone insists, there was that very sweet footage of him rapidly giving up a seat on the subway.
@@jneilson7568 exactly
Exactly
Keanu is a white heterosexual man ( which apparently today is the worst thing you can be ) and is still loved by everyone
I love that I dont know much about him, except that he like bikes. He only speaks out on interpersonal relations and has good messages, which he himself at least tries to adhere to.
@@somebody7070 Who is portrayed to be extremely powerful in his movies. God forbid that is shown to the audiences who want female "empowerment". Like honestly, I am surprised that they made John Wick to be like that, instead of being a jaded, old man who is so weak that the female protagonist (who by the way is a complete beginner in their field) has to save him every single time, and learns all of his tricks in a single afternoon.
Wow, Elizabeth Olson has some amazing self awareness for Hollywood. Good for her. Maybe its because of how her older sisters struggled so much after their acting careers at such young ages
I think its because of her social enxiaty. She has been hunted by paparazzi her entire life
She’s truly humble and sweet. I hear nothing but wonderful things people say about her. I even met her dad once at a golf tournament and he was a nice guy. She didn’t use her sisters success to get where she is. She avoided that. She worked and studied hard to get where she is now.
There was a feature in GQ years ago that talked about this. She (either by choice or because of her parents) functionally avoided the zaniness that consumed her sisters' lives by going off to Europe to train/learn acting for quite a few years. She also had/has a great agent/team that picked far more interesting roles pre-MCU, which established her credibility in a much more apparent/mature way.
Yeah was actually kinda surprised she was so grounded.
THE HECK WITH HER,
The comment by Elizabeth Olsen about the narcissism of social media is such an important point of discussion.
might be true but shhh shhh...without those people youtube, instagram and tiktok would be dead.
/e: oh and TWITTER of course :D
do you remember people bullying her on Instagram because she hadn’t posted about Chadwick yet… a few hours after? i felt so sorry for her, imagine grieving your friend’s shocking and unexpected death and a bunch of chronically online creeps are bothering you for not posting about it yet
Despite Feige's half a decade of pushing Captain Marvel as the next face of the MCU, it doesn't look like she's anyone's Captain Marvel anymore, not when she's being relentlessly side-lined in her own sequel. And I love it.
I dont think she was really any fans captain marvel to begin with
I never understood the attempts at hyping the character up like she was Wonder Woman I.E. one of the most iconic superheroes of all time. Captain Marvel's only noteworthy moment was acting as a battery for Rogue of the X-Men. She was hardly some top tier character in the Marvel universe, and certainly wasn't a known one outside of comic readers. Hell, the women of the X-Men like Rogue, Storm, Jean, etc. are better known and they're part of a team.
Very time marvel tried having a wonder woman type of woman hero, it just didn't work. Most of Marvels female heros are team players, their most lasting comics with a female lead was she hulks second run 60 issues, and spider woman (Jessica drew) with 50 issues. Other titles lasted 2 yrs at the most. Storm is arguably thier most famous, but even she couldn't lead a series unfortunately.
I mean...you say that, but do you recall the cast of Captain America 3?
@@jamessummers5936 i love civil war,but i am annoyed at that being called a captain america movie.
That Larson/Hemsworth/Cheadle interview... I have difficulty tearing my eyes from the interpersonal train wreck between Brie and Chirs... but man, when I do, Cheadle's facial expression is pure gold.
The one with Renner is a beauty too! His body language is impeccable.
I was just thinking the same thing. Every single clip in which she's sharing an interview her co-stars look absolutely mortified. Like they're in physical pain. Which they probably are. Renner looks like she ran him over with a snowplow.
"No. I'll be the next me thank you very much" ... the train got wrecked right there.
@@dsmyify There was so much train wreck, and dumpster fire.
The channel "Charisma on Command" has done SOO many "how to be liked" videos that are essentially breakdowns on how Brie presents herself, and how you should never be Brie Larson. lol
Cheadle is red pilled AF.
I still remember an interview (long ago) when he found out the truth about his ancestors in America.
You're absolutely right. Brie doesn't owe us anything and in return we don't owe her an ounce of attention or time or financial rewards. Action, reaction. :)
If only people realized how much power we give to these celebrities. They act like it’s all on them but let’s be real celebs are successful because of the attention they get from audiences. Like imagine if their was no paparazzi and no audiences members at ward shows, I really wanna see what would happen. Some celebs are talented but come no we live in a world where someone playing the role of a firefighter gets compensated more than an actual firefighter. Make it make sense 🤷🏽♂️
You still gotta give props to Brie. She's managed to make absolutely everyone dismiss her from being a competent actor with one single role
💀💀💀
It’s unfortunate because she was deserving of the Oscar for Room… but now I wonder what blood sacrifice she had to perform to be able to do it
As a South African who is of mixed heritage and who grew up under apartheid, I know all about experiencing racism but I'm so tired of identity politics and people thinking racism only comes from white people. All people can be racist. Why is society trying to convince me that only black people have the monopoly on racism? There is racism, colorism and prejudice in every race (the human race). I say this as someone who is of German, African and Dutch heritage. I'm a human being and judge and want to be judged on the content of my character. Society needs to wake up and stop this madness, it's only creating more division amonst us in my opinion. Hollywood forcing identity politics down our throats is counter-productive in my opinion. What happened to movies being entertaining? Everywhere I look there's some injustice they're trying to rectify and lecture us on in the most condescending way. All my opinions.
Agree 100%
Creating Division is the goal. The elitist want to return to feudalism and they need the western ideology to fail.
well said
I think the like button for comments should be changed to a clap button because WOW... "All people can be racist." You said that right!!!!!
Amen for I'm kinda tired of being reminded of what's going on in the world and being condescendingly lectured too because all I want is to enjoy some escapism to soothe myself.
I remember feeling this way about Evangeline Lily when the Hobbit films came out. She seemed to have this ungrateful, arrogant attitude. And it annoyed me so much bc I kept thinking, “Woman, your character doesn’t exist in the books! They created someone that you have been permitted to play. Be grateful this opportunity was given to you!”
How do you feel about her being in Ant-Man?
It’s mental illness caused by our phones.
She seems fine nowadays.
Interesting. I liked her in Lost, but didn't see The Hobbit movies because I refused to pay a dime once they announced it would be two movies (and felt even more justified after they said it would be three).
Oh god don’t tell me she’s like that. I’m just going to pretend that’s not the case and continue to like her and not look into her life outside film 😅
Clark Gable standing up for a collegue, that he actually knew and had worked with is different to some theoretical cause.
Love the reactions of her co stars in the interviews. She's obviously full of herself, which doesn't usually make a person likeable
Yes I noticed that too. Probably saying to themselves, this woman is from another planet.
To even equate you doing your own stunts to what Tom cruise has done is so fucking annoying. Bitch, you walked away from a jet, Tom flew one.
Which to fly a jet takes years and years and years of intense training and the knowledge you have to learn alone is wild. You have to have the perfect body, perfect eye sight, complete discipline over your emotions. Then he had to ACT while doing it and doing precision maneuvers. The fucking AUDACITY of this bitch
I'm not even a fan of Tom cruise but I give respect where it is due.
I bet that’s why she was barely in interviews with the female cast. Allegedly they couldn’t stand her arrogance. Even Elizabeth Olsen, who’s an absolute sweetheart, wasn’t happy with her. I don’t blame them. They were the main stars and then this loudmouth comes in and tries to make herself the main character and the strongest when in reality no one cared for the character.
A big part of the problem is that Hollywood will talk about diversity & how important it is, yet they will introduce it in the most toxic, divisive & even laziest ways that they can. Often also deciding that past prejudices against certain groups should be flipped & now be against other groups. Thinking that this makes them look good. In reality, it just makes them look petty. They are unintentionally alienating the general public by doing these types of things. It's the people that are put in charge of introducing diversity that are the problem. Not diversity itself.
Yes! Exactly!
Agreed 💯
I can agree with this
This is the thing...
After 1945 Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Macau and Singapore were TOTALLY destroyed and look at them now:
They are scientific, technological, industrial, financial, economic and cultural powerhouses.
Or just look what China did in the last 20 years...
AMAZING !
Similar with Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Oman and Qatar... now they are financial and economic powerhouses with state of art facilities and infrastructure thanks to the efficient and smart management of petroleum and natural gas.
Or look at Uruguay, Panama, Chile and Costa Rica how they use and manage efficiently and smartly their resources creating stable and prosperous societies.
Or look at Morocco, whose aboriginal ethnicity or population are Amazighen or Berber... they are thriving.
In CONTRAST we have Haiti, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Liberia, Congo, etc...
Furthermore, look WHOM are in charge in Baltimore, New York, Chicago and Detroit...
Can you see the pattern?
Why East Asians, Arabs, Latinos and Bergers CAN do it and "Lebron James people" CANNOT?
Reality is NOT an attack, the truth is NOT an offense.
@That Guy
It's not unintentional. It's 100% intentional that they're toxic. Whether that be because most of the power players in Hollywood ARE bigoted POS'es with no souls...
Because gender studies graduates manage to get jobs in HR and then gatekeep those working at big studios...
Because middle management wants woke bucks from Larry Fink and BlackRock...
Or because the CEO's are making their required tributes and sacrifices in burning down their companies and laying off thousands of employees (Bob Iger and Kathleen Kennedy) in order to get a seat at Klaus Schwab's World Economic Forum in Davos so they can officially join the Legion of Doom.
Wokeness has many benefits for the pieces of trash who abide by it, but its purpose is the same: To divide, conquer, and destroy the masses. That was always its intention.
Billy Batson will always be the one true Captain Marvel.
Amen to that.
EXACTLY
Yessir
What's funnier is that this obscure fact was actually being referenced as a joke in the Shazam 2 Movie.
Marvel has plenty of other Captain Marvel to pick from but they shoehorned Carol Danvers. Now it's a mess.
Miracleman \ Marvelman
Thor \ Don Blake
Captain Mar Vell with Rick Jones.
Sentry
Hyperion of Squadron Supreme
Prime \ Malibu
Marvel Boy \ Quasar
MCU/Disney problem for the past three years has been the hiring of unknown writers and directors who have NO writing history of action-adventure or sci-fi.
Some of the people that they've hired have openly admitted that they hate the characters that they are writing and don't very much like superheroes.
One correction. Being an actor used to be much harder. Before the technology we have now, you wanted to jump a long gap, you had to jump that gap. You wanted to flip a car with people inside, you had to flip that can with people inside. A lot of times, they could use tricky camera work to make the stunts safer, but the stunt still had to happen and someone needed to do it.
If Brie had to actually go through boot camp for her role, that would have been one thing. If she actually had flown a fighter jet, that would have been another. If she actually fought with an impressive fighting style, that would have been another. But she doesn’t. She doesn’t do anything impressive to earn her supposed status.
She’s a Barbie. Just slap an outfit on her and call her Doctor, Maid, or Soldier. Just about the same thing.
When Spielberg shot Saving Private Ryan, he put all of the actors in the rescue squad into a military boot camp for two weeks, so they were all exhausted by the time filming started and looked like battle weary soldiers - except for Matt Damon. Spielberg gave him a pass, knowing that all the other actors would resent him and it comes through on screen.
@@JustinTrudeau1971 Coolest fact ever. That is why you feel their resentment so much!
@@rachelpalm7403 Yeah, Spielberg is a genius. If you watch the scene where Damon is telling Hanks about the girl back home, Damon goes completely off script and invents it on the spot. You can see Hanks wondering what to do and he glances off camera to Spielberg who motions to keep going. Hanks gives a tiny nod and they kept the scene.
Except barbie has talent 😂
You gotta respect people like Tom Cruise who still want to make movies the old fashioned way. That man puts in the work to do things the hard way because he knows the audience will enjoy it more and it makes his movies more exciting
My favourite part of The Marvels trailer was when they combined their powers, and transformrd Don Cheadle into Captain Planet; after which he turned The Patriarchy™ into trees.
I understood that reference meme insert here :P
Captain Planet is awesome
Humping around throwing tree-making laser
Trees?! As in *phallic* shaped growths penetrating Mother Earth's sky? Do better, sweaty 💅🏿
In all fairness, Scarlett Johansen is an actual actress.
And she's just as preachy and hypocritical as Brie, but she's a more talented and likeable one so gets away with the exact same BS.
I have yet to see her carry a movie or play a role that isn't mostly an emotionless character. So far as I can tell, she's just a pretty face. We'll see if she ever gets hired again when she hits the Wall.
@@Alan-mt2trobjectively speaking I don’t really think Scarlet is more talented than her . Don’t forget that Scarlet is from a long line of nepo baby which allowed her to get better roles and learn how to manage the media from a very young age . However, she’s much more likeable than Brie is indeed .
To be fair Brie is also an actual actress. I knew her before the mcu/captain marvel mess . If I analyze her acting coldly and objectively to me she’s actually a good actress. I saw the movie (Room ) that gained her an Oscar. In this movie you can’t tell that she’s acting . She was pretty good “short term 12 “ too as well as in 21 jump streets where she had a good comedic timing . Also let’s be real here Captain Marvel was badly written which didn’t do her any favour as an actress . Not even
Streep could have save it lol . Unfortunately, she immersed herself in the woke nonsense and doesn’t seem to know how to make herself likeable in the public eyes . Bummer
@@chay2033 Scarlett is a nepo baby? Damn, I remember an interview she gave about how her family was poor and they used food stamps
I’m still not convinced that press footage of her with Chris Hemsworth and Don Cheadle is real, how could you not read the room when acting that way.
so what's your theory then? that Disney PR staged it so it could become Evidence #1 that their captain marvel star is incredibly unlikeable?
Yep… it showed that she’s has almost a complete lack of self-awareness… I felt kind of bad for her in that moment…
She's a narcissist. Narcissists don't have self awareness
"I did my own stunts"
*meanwhile her stuntdouble hearing this interview* "am I a joke to you?"
My favourite part of Captain Marvel is when Brie said: "I am the Captain" and then Marvelled all the way into the movie. Truly one of the moments of all time.
i marvelorbed
Its marvel time?
Its marvelling time
@happy little trees 239 did you really have to?
Its all over my shoes
I thought we all collectively left this joke in 2022, guess not
Thank you for calling out the truly poisonous nature of making spite and resentment the focus of "art".
'We made a deliberately bad, provocative product to troll the trolls' - If I wasn't already done with the MCU at the abysmally unwatchable, insulting Love and Thunder, She-Hulk's creators failing to damage control by turning it on the fans and vilifying them as trolls would have finished me.
When reviewing the Halo books, Brian David Gilbert said "a universe only matters if it has characters that you can connect with". The issue with the new MCU is it's being run into the ground with people who can't write characters that connect with their core audience anymore and have decided that their low stats are because of their 'brave' (but frankly overt) messages that 'scare' their target demographic
Bingo. And the fact they keep using words like "diversity" to cover up the fact that captain marvel was a predictable, kinda boring movie. Also, this woman can't play nice with others lol.
I haven't heard the name Brian David Gilbert in years... I fondly remember his Legend of Zelda and Elder Scrolls videos.
The people running the MCU have inexplicably followed Marvel Comics' lead in substituting the popular characters that audiences could and did connect with, for unlikeable, unrelatable Mary Sues like Carol Danvers, Jessica Walters, and Riri Williams. This is really astonishing to me, because when Marvel Comics did that, their sales went into the toilet at the same time Marvel Studios was making money hand over fist. But rather than the comics looking at the success the movies were having and the success they themselves were _not,_ and then getting back to telling great stories about relatable characters people loved, it went the other way round. _Marvel Studios has chosen to follow the money-losing comics division's example,_ get woke, and switch out its popular characters for a bunch of Mary Sue diversity replacements. It's _madness._
@@Hibernicus1968 I had no idea who Jessica Walters was, except for the mother on Archer.
Today I learned she shares a name with a literal hulk of an embarrassment.
@@Hibernicus1968 Honestly, I related more to Loki for many reasons than I did to any of the characters you mentioned. It has little to do with gender and ethnic for me, it's more about the struggles.
You nailed it. Her little eye rolls and disgust signals are constant whenever she speaks in public or gives an interview. It makes her come across as unbearable and anyone who's ever been in a relationship where you live with anyone romantically could already see how those personality traits would be a nightmare to deal with every day...no matter how attractive she is.
For real, for real… That segment with her and Chris Hemsworth made me almost cringe out of my boots…
She's not even that attractive at all. Just an average looking woman acting ugly.
Basically a disrespectful adult with questionable accountability! That's sad because celebrities should also be responsible on how they act and present themselves because marvel fans are young and at this day and age, media influences them a lot!
@@paraynikisku After seeing what they expose kids to on tik toc and what they defend and uphold in society these days where right is left and up is down, its sort of evident that they want young people to behave like that, they straight up encourage it.
Wait, Someone got told by CHRIS HEMSWORTH that they are similar to TOM CRUISE and the response is " I want to be the next me ". I think anyone with a sane mind would feel accomplished and lucky to be praised like that! This is a true example of praise where it's worth.
Chris Hemsworth is thinking - I can’t wait to get away from this woman. 😂
I remember watching that for the first time, the cringe just engulfed me as a whole that i shuddered, oof!
Chris is a surfer dude at heart and he gave out so many opportunities for her to join in the comradery, and she misses every damn one. 🤦♂
I think it was being compared to a man. I wouldn’t appreciate that either. Someone asked f1 champion Sebastian Vettel about being the next Michael Schumacher and his response was - I don’t want to be the next Schumacher, I was to be the next Sebastian Vettel. It’s not unreasonable to want to be the best YOU and not be overshadowed by others.

The casting of Brie Larson was a decision by Disney. It's already been debunked that the casting was because Disney wanted an Academy Award winner (if you take a look at their past casting as a example) as Captain Marvel.
Does it matter now who made the mistake?
@@docsavage8640 YES it does, because it's important for others who aren't aware of it, to understand that Disney and their propaganda nonsense are to blame. :)
Academy award winner of what? This is first time I have even heard of her.
@@TheUnseenPath Facts , I didn't even know who she was until Captain Marvel XD
@@TheUnseenPath She won the award for a movie called Room that came out in 2015. Not The Room, just Room. She was also in the movie 21 Jump Street as the girl that Jonah Hill's character likes.
Contempt is the emotion uppermost in my mind when I hear Brie Larson rather than resentment. There’s been quite a bit of psychological studies written on what contempt does within a relationship.
Thank you for the video!
Beautiful take. The way you understand and articulate how the culture war and the MCU and pop culture in general has been totally captured by these idealogies is incredibly entertaining and I look forward to every video 😂
"Bannerman." I loved the use of that word. Your word choices in your presentations are great.
Another fantastic video that makes you think. Elizabeth Olsen seems like a nice person with a lot of common sense.
It breaks my heart what she has turned into. Her performance in "Room" was breathtaking!
I remember hearing about the She-Hulk show and I was super excited. And I remember opening up the first episode with excitement, and by the end of the episode being incredibly disappointed.
I miss the days when strong female characters & tomboyish girl characters (eg., in 90s shows/movies) who still embraced being human and had a vulnerable side.
Today most of these characters don't show vulnerability, lack empathy, and don't embrace 'normal' parts of being women/girls.
An awesome, well thought out and well researched video Baggage Claim!
I think it would be so good to see a collaboration between you and 'The Critical Drinker'.
BC and CD have had a crossover already! Baggage was on Drinker’s ‘After Hours’ show not so very long ago 😌 worth a watch for sure
I love your videos! So sensible, deep, and well thought out. I admire your script writing and analytical skills. And your voice is beautiful
Wow, thank you!
Once again, you have nailed it! Thank you, Baggage Claim. You articulate your thoughts so clearly. You are standing up for all the regular people like us.
In Bre Larson, I sense deep insecurities about herself, but I can't put my finger on what they are.
Average looking, average acting, generic opinions. Shes not special in any way but she likes yelling at people to take note of her like she's some sort of amazing powerhouse, and if they don't like her well it's simply because they're dimwitted white men >.>
You should look at her upbringing. Her mother basically did everything in her power to make her famous, wether it was as a singer, actor or dancer. Her mother wanted to live her fantasies through her daughter and Brie is paying the price by being very psychologically damaged.
The silly thing is, I don't even think Brie fully believes in the BS she spouts. Before she became Captain Marvel, I had never heard her say anything about activism, representation, etc. I think she saw it was popular (especially the big wave around the Black Panther release) and thought it would be a way to gain popularity - a moneymaker. Marvel must have encouraged her too, they are all about that stuff. And now it's backfiring on them all, but Brie can't just change her tune now, say she didn't really believe in what she said, because that would be even worse for her image than continuing with the BS. Her own stupidity and Marvel's political ideology have trapped her now, no wonder she hates them lol.
She doesn’t have to come out and say anything about not believing it, she can just shut up and stop acting like an entitled narcissist
I noticed how all the actors sitting next to her keep their arms away from touching her even when she makes an effort to connect with them, they don’t feel comfortable or at ease like I’ve seen them in other interviews joking with each other.
Jeremy Renner looked to be in physical pain sitting next to her.
She’ll metoo them if they touch her.
I used to looooove Captain Marvel. No joke but I was probably the biggest fan in Mexico.
I knew she wasn't the most complex or well developed character but I liked her for pushing forward and being somehow arrogant with a lot of flaws! That's what made her interesting to me, seeing her with the Carol Corps or Guardians of the Galaxy really made me like her a lot.
Then the movies came along and... well the comics tried to match Brie's energy moving forward and it all went downhill from then. I still have the pre-"Mighty Captain Marvel" comics, when her stories were kinda good and full of heart.
Over the years I've come to decipher the hidden slogan of what the Critical Drinker affectionately dubbed "THE MESSAGE": It's only okay when I do it.
I like to refer to Attack on Titan. It shows the negative impacts of war, racism, genocide and revenge all without giving you a lecture that makes you think you're in class. As the saying goes, show, don't tell.
Exactly, plus it does a good job in terms of gender equality too. Characters such as Mikasa or Annie play an important role as skilled fighters, whereas the storyline of Ymir and Christa/Historia are unique to the whole series and show a lot of character depth for both.
I’m worried I’ve become very obsessed about Wonder Woman,Black Widow and Captain Marvel,I think I might be a heroine addict
🤣 I see what you did there.
🥁
U are obsessed with captain marvel ? U good bro ?
Well played, sir.
wow that was one of the smoothest ad transitions that I’ve ever heard. Awesome video!! Saw you on FNT and you make great points
Congrats on the channel! I think its awesome the way you explain things! Keep up the good work!🎉
being a man i was always afraid to say the things she just said but i am glad finally a woman is shedding light on this issue...
Baggage Claim, I first discovered you through your Everything Wrong with Woke Feminism video, with Brie Larson on the thumbnail. That remains my favorite video on wokeness of all time. I also absolutely love your voice.
So coherently put. Kudos.
Love your videos! So insightful!❤️
Narcissism seems to be hip at the moment.
I so agree with this. People watch movies becasue they want to take a break from all the hardwork they put in everyday to survive and to live. They just want to enjoy, relax and watch great stories unfold. They dont want to hear lectures about feminism, race sexuality etc. Everything has a time and place to be talked about....
Love the video. Good work!
Love the video as always! AND that HelloFresh advert was probably one of the FIRST times I've seen a promotion, didn't get annoyed, & am actually considering buying. Thank you & keep up the good work!
Since the death of the Movie Star the world has been too close to the celebrities in the last 20 years, with social media, internet and the easy access to information about them. It's really hard to not know the thoughts of these people nowdays, and well.. a lot of them are not really smart. Being a talented entertainer does not equal a wise person.
Agreed. I've met a few through various things (nothing exciting). The following is just my personal viewpoint,. The most interesting actors, as people, tend to be the ones who are character / small roll actors who do things outside of the acting machine. They have lives outside of acting and thus have life experience. Meanwhile the ones who are 100% actors are often as dumb as rocks when it comes to anything outside of that one area.
very well reasoned. Really enjoying your content
Some of the body language in those interviews was painful to watch
Wonderful video and message!
Just discovered your channel and your video essays are truly a breath of fresh air, thank you!
People made entire channels/careers out of Bries CM. She's the gift that keeps on giving. I don't want educating in my movies I want entertainment. If something is done well it can achieve things without upsetting anyone. Who doesn't like Ripley or Sarah Connor?
Great video. I personally have no interest in watching a movie whose actors hate, loath and despise me without KNOWING me, actors too self absorbed or perhaps simply to stupid to feel even a trace of irony as they continue to pretend THEY aren't prejudiced?
Great video essay!
Great video. Subscribed!
“It’s her goddamn attitude.” 😂Girl, I love you. So succinct. And perfectly encapsulates why she’s so disliked. She’s unlikeable!
Also, I think Elizabeth Olson has (thankfully) probably benefitted wisdom-wise from having two older sisters who have went through and survived that insane levels of stardom they went through. I think if I was Liz, I’d probably ask my sisters about how they made it through it all, and their answer probably had an effect on the way she conducts herself as a celebrity who already gives so much of herself to the world on a constant basis.
Great video! This is my theory for the difference between Brie Larson and Elizabeth Olsen. One went to college and essentially lived in the “real world”while the other worked and hustled within the industry. Now there nothing wrong but if one wants an audition and a pay check, one will jump the most popular band wagon to keep the spotlight.
Yes!!you layed it out in the best possible way that it could be.i am absolutely ok with backing up you as the mouthpiece to speak for me on this subject.i appreciate the video.
Well said, thank you. I think the comparisons and insights are were well researched and appreciated!
You know what the REAL tragedy is? Carol Danvers the comic book character is a compelling, compassionate and strong willed woman who has BEEN THROUGH HELL! She has lost friends and loved ones, struggled with alcoholism, struggled with an inferiority complex brought on by being raised by a single parent, identity disorders caused by her powers that left her blacking out and waking up back home without memories of her actions. Was callously tossed into the war between the Kree Empire and the Skrulls. Fought a Brood infestation (which is a nightmare in itself), had her powers and mind torn from her by Rogue, her soul trapped in the back of Rogue's subconscious for years while she used her powers, all while her original body withered in a hospital bed in a coma. Alone. When she finally awoke, she had to rebuild herself from the ground up. THAT's a hero!
Then Disney got a hold of her...
Haven’t read those comics, but I loved Carol when she was introduced in the Earth’s Mightiest Heroes cartoon as Ms. Marvel. She was such a cool character there that I got excited when I heard that she was getting her own movie. Then all the crap surrounding the movie happened (including an unnecessary rivalry with Alita Battle Angel).
I miss Earth’s Mightiest Heroes.
@@dragonsword8129 EMH Carol is the closest you'll get to comic book Miss Marvel.
I’m so happy to catch your content early for a change.
I’ve seen a number of interviews she’s done with other MCU actors, and it kinda looks like they don’t like her either.
Hi, this is the first video of yours that I have come across. Great job. Intelligent discourse. You go girl!
you are so good at this. thank you!
As an aspiring artist myself, I will say that it is not the job of any kind of artist to be right about their assessment of the world. The problem we and Hollywood are making is treating high profile artists like they are right. Just because artists express feelings that resonate with others that doesn't mean it's the correct way to view the world.
Once again, Anne Hathaway's quote comes to mind. "The reason you won the lottery is because someone went out and bought a ticket."
Another great video, Thanks BC. Your content is top tier. Can't wait to see what you come out with next 😊
Great video as always! 🙏🏿
We need good stories and real people
Well said. I’m so tired of celebrities lecturing the public from their privileged positions. Most of us are getting through life one day at a time. Meanwhile, they have more resources than we could ever dream of. Want to change things? Cool, do something. Don’t just sit on your high horse and make the people who make it possible for you to have a career in the first place feel responsible for everything that’s wrong in the world.
This was outstanding. It’s fascinating that the social commentary of channels like this is so much better, so much more interesting and dare is say…entertaining, than what Hollywood is making.
Baggage Claim and The Aussie Critic are the best at dissecting all this crazy stuff. Love these videos!
Love from Kenya
Well said.
BTW, Tom Cruise wasn't always a nice person in his earlier days, but with time he learned a bit of humility and how to keep some stuff to himself. He still has haters, but only because he's successful, loyal to his fans and doesn't bend the knee to the woke. _((I can never forget his couch jumping shenannigans though 😂))_
I hope that Brie might gets to learn that lesson one day, although in our current socio-political climate, I highly doubt that.
Great commentary.
I’m subscribed.
Great vid as always
Honestly it all comes down to the writing and directing and unfortunately Captain Marvel and the sequel the Marvels have the worst writers & directors who have NO past history of writing/directing action/adventure & sci-fi.
Anyone else find it weird that they never actually hire comic book writers to write the stories of their movies and not even as consultants.
I can not watch anything Brie Larson is in. I detest her attitude & can't separate it from her acting. Great video you really nailed this.
Holy shit. Great video. You’re killing it out here.
Oh man, I'm so sorry i do hello fresh already. I would have loved to support you and your fantastic and absolutely needed content in times like these.
Great commentary. This sums up the reason I and my family and friends rarely go to the movies anymore and we used to go most weekends. It’s hard to stomach the actors on screen when they can be so obnoxious off screen.
99% agreed.
jackie chan >>>> tom cruise. cruise is only catching up, in my opinion. but in impressive fashion, though.
Great video. Listen to it on my way to work.
Thank you for the video 😁 - very well said 😊
They can have all the fame and recognition... but I want the money, especially my money, to go towards the VFX and props teams because their work is significantly more difficult than looking pretty and playing pretend on screen. Shame the millions of dollars arent given to the people who actually has a difficult job.
Still no Mindy Kaling/Velma video... nothing but distractions...
What is your point?
@@BS-vx8dg that she won't do a video on kaling... going back to the boring old topic of meghan markle and brie larson
I love your content always on point 💯👊🏿
Great video!
In India, we've got our own clones of Brie who aren't even that successful: Swara Bhaskar, Sonam Kapoor, Tapsee Pannu and Radhika Apte.
Don't forget to include Kanagana Runout
The true grifter
Oh that does not suit your agenda
When Shaka Demus sang "a pretty face and bad character..." I'm sure he wasn't thinking of Bree. Sadly, this is where entertainment is at.
Your content is great.. Getting those subtle points across 😊👍
Nice editing baggage! And good contrast between Olsen and Larsen.
If you want modern positive female characters who are powerful WITHOUT the need to bring down the men a few pegs, then I can’t recommend The Expanse enough. Chock full of amazing women and equally, the men. Fantastic.
Would make a great video of comparisons of scenes to this crap.
The difference between well written characters who happen to men / women / etc and badly written characters whose entire character trait is where they keep their reproductive organs.
I also think that other actresses in the MCU have faced bigger issues than Bree. Scarlett Johansson comes to mind.
Am loving this Channel subscribing immediately.
