In the midst of a major reshuffling within the DCU, a few movies are just kind of floating in in-betweenland. Movies like The Flash and Shazam 2 Fury of the Gods basically flopped, at least partially due to the fact that audiences aren’t really sure if they’re supposed to care or not. Blue Beetle is the latest movie in that trend, that’s maybe starting off the James Gunn DC reign? Maybe? But also just kind of doing it’s own thing?
Blue Beetle definitely raises some questions. Like why does this movie look so familiar? Why is this the 10,000th evil business person that wants to use a supersuit to sell as weapons? Why does that guy on the Big Belly Burger box look so much like Screenwriter Guy?
To answer all these questions, check out the pitch meeting that led to Blue Beetle!

Love how Jaime is like “killing is wrong!” then his grandma unloads a minigun on hourly wage security guards
This is why we need to build that wall.
@@MAGAMANGo away, troll.
@@MAGAMAN Youre right only a Wall can stop those minigun weilding grannies !
Oh, minigun-wielding homicidal grandmas are TIGHT
yeah but they're all corporate and stuff and they wear uniforms. Like the Pinkertons. And Blackshirts. And Boomers.
I'm just glad we live in the timeline where Pitch Meeting fatigue doesn't exist :D
Don't jinx it
You said the name of the channel!
Making pitch meetings is super easy! Barely an inconvienience for Down’s syndrome Ryan Gosling!! 😉😂
What if there's more to CZcams than a wisecracking Canadian talking to himself?
@noahsimon8776 you sound crazy right now.
When Scriptwriter Guy said "They live in poverty", I honestly half expected Producer Guy to ask something like "And what country is that?"
@@egonprint Well... an iPhone is cheeper than a house so yeah.
What do you mean? There's more than one country? 🤔
The "superheroes fight villain with the exact same powers" trope would be so good if movies used it to show how differently the characters actually USE their powers and it reflects the different characterization and background.
Yeah, I remember in the 60's, there was an issue of the Fantastic Four where there was an evil duplicate of Mister Fantastic and he noted how the duplicate was using his powers more violent ways than he ever would have. It could really help differentiate the heroes and villains with the same powers.
The only trope I dislike for that is when the hero spends the whole movie learning how to use his powers and the villain just learns nearly immediately (like Clark spending 10 seasons of Smallville learning to fly, but most Kryptonian villains learn instantly; or Superman needing years to control his enhanced senses in Man of Steel, but General Zod adjusts withing a short time of trying; or Captain Marvel/Shazam needing to learn how to fly, but Doctor Sivana not having any trouble... of course, Captain Marvel Jr./Freddy also just instantly knew how to fly, so who knows...).
I mean it's basically good guy with a gun and bad guy with a gun.
That’s what the first iron man did well imo
But that seems less cozy.
So Shang-Chi
Gotta give Ryan some respect for committing to his roles enough to constantly swap 20 pounds of weight on and off for his roles as producer guy and writer guy.
Christian Bale wishes he was that wicked
😂
Quickly gaining weight then losing it then gaining it again is tight!
20-pound glasses are tight!
I heard it was barely ...
I'll let myself out
The producer guy not being aware of poverty was a superb touch
Is it even an exaggeration for real CEOs?
Very à-propos of what some CEO have publicly declared during the writers and actors strikes.
@makepeoplemad LOL that magical fictional world you live in must be amazing.
Found the CEO@makepeoplemad
@makepeoplemadtop notch sarcasm!
The production was so sure the movie had no other road to go than ending up being a pitch meeting they put a picture of Ryan in the movie just to say "Here -it's all yours."
The Big Belly Burger joke was amazing.
The flash 😊
I'M SO GLAD they pointed out Big Belly Burger's mascot looks like Ryan.
they O.o
Yes, they, there are 2 guys in the video if you didn't know.@@J_GamerSP
@@itsgonnabeokay9341seriously. They’re in the same room. It’s _obviously_ two different people. 🙄
But the Big Belly Burgers' mascot only looks like one of them. Doesn't look like the other one.
@@willrunriotobviously!😅
The intro where he immediately responds to the pitch with "Shazam" had me in stitches. Ryan never misses
He is the reason writers are on strike. Producer guy watched a few episodes and is wondering why he’s paying more than minimum wage for the absolute shite scripts.
It was Shazam meets Iron Man
The absolute legend.
Same here!! Freaking golden 🤣🤣🤣
@@CorePathway IRL producer guys are WHY there are only absolute shite scripts. They don't want to takes risks on new stories, so almost every story they okay is the same old story reskinned, with MAYBE a bit or two of window dressing swapped in/out/around. Almost everything produced by Hollywood is highly formulaic.
I liked how she said to the guards to lock down the building but then he walks out the main door with the burger beetle.
Scientist guy couldn't find his keys. He had to literally run around the whole building and turn every lock.
I love how when Ryan George was watching this when he saw Big Belly Burger he instantly knew what he had to do.
We aren’t fatigued with super heroes
We have fatigue of bad movies
Exactly. I'm hoping it's a permanent genre, like sci-fi eventually became. As opposed to a trend like westerns or war flicks that come in and out of fashion.
"Superhero fatigue" is the biggest Hollywood coping mechanism ever.
No, your movie sucked!
I’d argue it’s a bit of both. People are no longer rushing out the door to go watch the latest superhero flick and our standards for good/worth seeing have gone up significantly, which could be seen as a form of superhero ‘fatigue’.
Speak for yourself. Super hero movies are the most lazy kind of movies out there. Boring, repetitive, full of CGI.
Super hero fatigue is real. I was a comic book fan since I was 10. Now I can't stand this shit anymore.
I can’t be the only one who didn’t realize this movie was out already, right? Props to you, Ryan.
I didn't know either. Just like I didn't know that Shazam 2 was in theaters
I didn't even know there *was* a Blue Beetle movie.
@@batmanrocks6727I read that as Stalin 2.
I only heard about it because I follow some movie reviewers, namely Jeremy Jahns. I use him as a guide to watching movies that are coming out lol.
@@somerandoladI absolutely thought blue Beatle was a transformer movie and also had not come out yet
I just want to talk about the indestructible pick up truck. It was able to withstand multiple shootings and it just seems to heal with barely any damage the wind shield was broken multiple times but at the end there was a few cracks
Tacoma’s man! Top Gear couldn’t even kill a Toyota pickup!
The truck’s durability was the most realistic thing in the movie
Honestly I had a Tacoma and it survived the freeze in Texas, the hurricane in Louisiana and was hit by garbage truck drunk driver, my wife used it (ultimate test women driving the car) hailstorm in Tennessee, eventually I had to sell it and get a Minivan because I got kids, Toyota cars are really indestructible. And the guy that bought it moved to Michigan and still driving it until today and he tells me he bought a tank not a truck .
I got Toyota Sienna now and although it’s not as fun but holding on to the most hyperactive evil 5 and 3 years old (my kids), I’m saving up to get Toyota 4Runner .
Really wish I could of seen Ryan’s face at the cinema when he saw that Big Belly Burger
We don't have superhero fatigue, we have bad writing fatigue.
I was wondering if the writers were already on strike and an intern just copy and pasted the script together from other superhero scripts
Actually we have both, even the animated dc movies that I used to love, I'm just tired of the whole thing good and bad.
Exactly! People are always saying "Superhero fatigue" while ignoring the real problem.
@@alenezi989a3I kind of wonder if it is a habit thing. I was in the habit of going to see every Marvel movie in the theater, but that steak was broken by Black Widow for the pandemic. I still saw Dr Strange and Spider Man, but between poor reviews and mediocre writing it's just too much of a hassle to go to all of them.
Same thing happened to Star Wars; went from "yay a new movie!" to "I'm not even going to bother with streaming" in 3 movies. Was hopeful of the first, disappointed by the second, checked out for the third, and I still haven't seen it.
But with both properties I'll still watch the known good ones. I'm not tired of them.
Part of the problem was Disney ownership. Igner being back and having already worked with Fiege to cut a few of the planned movies so each can get more focus from Kevin should help on that front. The DC issues should also improve with Gunn overseeing them. We could yet get a renaissance in the world of superhero movies. Assuming the writers strike is resolved.
Watching a Pitch Meeting so I don’t have to watch the actual movie/show is super easy, barely an inconvenience!
Thanks so much, Ryan!!
Oh, watching Pitch Meeting videos so you don't have to subject yourself to mediocre movies is tight!
Don't let the copyright lawyers hear this
Do watch the movie tho - it's actually really good. & I never liked SuperHero movies, so trust me on this.
Movies good though, you should watch it.
He's the hero we deserve
The classic hero moral code … “ do not kill … only severely maim and disable people” 😅 👍🏻
Only kill henchmen who probably have lives and families and are probably working for the villain to get by. Never the actual villain who does all the evil stuff.
@@smacksavemarthaassociation5092dude they were ready to shoot a disarmed family no questions asked.
Ryan watches these so I don't have to, as always. Thank you for your hard work!
Man it's crazy how good Ryan got at making these. His early videos weren't bad, the jokes were funny but the back and forth between the characters was a little off but now he's got it down to a T and has such great chemistry with uh.. himself.
Having chemistry with oneself is super-tight!
I guess for Ryan to get so good at these videos was super easy, barely an inconvenience
He is not forever alone.
one can say its now super easy barely an inconvenience
@@greek_geek6306 fr tho, he actually works really hard making all these vids
The "Hey shut up" lines have become my favourite moments in these. Always delivered so perfectly too.
He not said it in this video wdym
@@yaqinmalul6467hey shut up
@@yaqinmalul6467 2:28
It's kind of ok, but the "get off my back" is my favorite. Idk why he replaced it :(
I personally like the “oh really!?” That follows super easy… it’s so consistently shocked/surprised.
Speaking of Super Hero Fatigue: Maybe Ryan could also move on to new territory, beyond franchise fantasy? Like, maybe include some classics, thrillers, action movies, historical dramas, love stories, old movies?
That could be great. Maybe even some old franchises: "I hear you have another Thin Man movie for me, what's it called?" "Another Thin Man." The Marx Brothers or W. C. Fields would also be good choices.
Hey shut up
I thought this movie had a lot of heart and was refreshing... when it was just the characters. The action was like everything else we've already seen.
The way they did the story also caused me to roll my eyes at a few points. Why would a random teenager say "we don't kill" the first time he's involved in a fight to the death and his family is in danger? It's just weird.
@@SeraphSeph That was odd. It felt a bit Spider-Man. I think Holland says something similar to Edith. It felt like they had 2 writers for this thing. When anything action-ish with him in the suit is happening, it's every other origin movie we've seen a 1000 times. But the parts where it's just him and his family, that's solid stuff.
Like after they visit the mansion and he realizes he can't get if off and goes to the roof. In every other movie the girl would go and that would be there "moment" scene. But in this one it's his uncle...because that makes sense. He just met this girl, of course it would be the person he's known his whole life and helped raise him.
But as you say, the plot sometimes, it's so generic. They need to do something different with the new DCU. If it's gonna be this, it's gonna tank.
@@mike9512 hopefully. The next movie is stronger, and while I did roll my eyes at points 5he story and seeing where things will go in the future did intrigue me.
@@SeraphSeph He's not a teenager, he's 22 years old. And also, he's not a violent person, like at all. He literally is forced into violence, tries to talk to the guy repeatedly and only when that is in vain, does he agree to let the suit take over for him so he can try to get away from this guy. When the suit is about to kill the guy is when he takes back control and just wants to get away. That's a part of his character is to be non-violent and non-murderous. Two parts that get tested and pushed later in the film.
@@SeraphSeph ALSO, I figured that it was still about displaying the poor family and the consequences. It was already mentioned about not calling the cops so that they didn't have attention on them.
Rich people wouldn't have the same problem with authority.
For a moment I thought the Big Belly Burger Box was a gag until I looked it up. The smiling eyes are what really cement the resemblence to Ryan.
I thought the character on the box looked EXACTLY like the scientist she stole the key card from. Which is even funnier because he's eating food from a place that could be his own franchise.
Is this like the Disney + series with Marvel where they had bad guys who looked a lot like Doom Cock? 🤔
I'm surprised they went with "anything you can imagine" rather than "a ton of highly deadly weapons, half of which would destroy an entire city, so only use the tiny ones"
Well see, you care more about writing a good story than they do. It's a common situation these days.
Even that had been done before with Green Lantern and neither one used the powers properly. I mean, anything you can imagine? Yet they settled for just regular boring weapon shapes and stuff.
Bro it’s a 2hr live action film. Not a three season anime. And Even anime starts small.
@@KR-P Mind you I'm a huge Blue Beetle fan, and it's just canonical that most of the weaponry is extremely lethal and so Jaime uses the less lethal ones, even if the Scarab isn't enthused about it.
Probably so it doesn't sound clunky
They Live just turned 35 & I saw it on the big screen. It totally deserves a pitch meeting!
Actually, I took my kids to watch this movie and even after the movie was over people were clapping, I thought it was pretty good.
sad.
@@deanwurm7655 thank you for sharing your personal opinion. Have a nice day and hope all your dreams and goals come true 😎
Nobody clapped, stop lying
This pitch has the most side-tangents a Pitch Meeting has had in a long time.
-Superhero and energy beams fatigue
-Explaining what poverty is
-Screenwriter guy being on the burger box
The exec being wrong about their weights is perfect.
The single longest side-tangent might be the dollar sign pupils in Mandalorian that need a doctor visit and a support group
@@onothankyou literally the same human
And still wrapped up in record time. The movie didn't allow for any analysis beyond "hey cool, everyone's seen all this"
Who is Po Verty?
Since I saw the film I was waiting for this Pitch Meeting in the hopes that you would mention the scientist getting back into the lab without his key card. My inner Ryan George came out when that happened. Thank you.
Hey, shut up.
It came out by gnawing its way through your belly? Cause that's also from a movie, another movie that I saw
I also found it weird how Jaime was able to leave a building that was under lock down with the Scarab, at the start of the movie, but Ryan didn't mention that part 🥲
Having Ryan George inside you is TIGHT
Thats more of a CinemaSins than Ryan. Too small of a detail
0:30 lmao this back and forth is exactly what’s happening in Hollywood, exactly. Funny vid, great stuff
LMAO I love how you point out that Jaime is literally the only character in the movie that doesn't want to kill people. His whole family was down with wiping out all of those soldiers. The movie literally ends with a supersoldier kamikazing the villain.
I like how despite being a literal living alien the Scarab had less personality and humanity in it's voice than any of the literal AI in Tony Stark/Peter Parkers suits. It also doesn't seem to have any goals outside of protecting Jaime so at no point is there conflict because of it doing it's own thing, there almost is when it tries to kill but then it just happily accepts the no killing rule so clearly the Scarab is a team player. Jaime could probably solve every conflict in this movie with no issues by just letting the Scarab fight for him.
My review, movie had a lot of potential lol.
Bits of it were unique then it all got covered up with a hero receives the power that can do anything, with the girlfriend that can do anything.
There was a bit of build-up for the suits AI. Although it was rare when it actually spoke, which made it jarring. It was snarky near the end, but the monotone voice kind of ruined it.
I wished the scarab acted more..hostile? That’s at least how I’m used to Black Beetle, but this wasn’t bad to me, the voice being a woman (Becky G) was also different to me
That is literally the scarab’s primary objective, to protect its host.
@@vincenzoditrolio6985so does the symbiote of Peter, Eddie and others, yet it has personality for conflict
That Big Belly Burger guy literally looked EXACTLY like Ryan. It looks as if it was based off him
Call me crazy, but I'm getting some real She-hulk vs Doomc**k vibes from that one...
Not having seen the movie, was that actually the box?
@@johntabler349 Yes, it was
@@PeteTheGrouch AAANY DAY NOW, MY SOURCES TELL ME THAT THE KATHLEEN KENNEDY KABAL WILL BE OUSTED
The movie industry has become aware of him!
The lines in the beginning, seriously, some of your best writing, GREAT subtext on the STRIKES....keep doing that
A couple days before this movie came out I was in Target. Walking past the toy aisles I saw a Blue Beetle mask and I swear I thought "Huh, so Target is making their own store-branded superhero now." It didn't even occur to me that this was a DC character getting a $100 million movie launch.
Now had the movie been great I would have been like "My bad, congrats to the fans." But obviously that didn't happen either so what they heck were they thinking?
I started dividing movies into those I hold off watching their Pitch Meeting until I've seen the movie itself and those I have no intention of seeing at all and I click the Pitch Meeting right away.
The latter have been SO winning lately it's not even a contest. :P
I do the same
I absolutely do this.
about 2 years of pitch meeting over films tbh
Same here
Once in a while i have to halt the pitch meeting because suddenly i want to watch the movie
Ryan spitting straight facts about how playing the audio backwards wouldn't make any sense. 10/10 message, dude is a wordsmith.
Literally the first 15 seconds of this video are absolute gold.
“Shazam”
“Sh*t”
“Yeah we did that twice”
I would love to see one about Gossip Girl! So many inconsistencies, it's gonna be super easy, barely an inconvenience
@pitchmeetings
"So why does Dan Humphries react outwardly to every Gossip Girl post?" "Because." "That works!"
Fighting Henchmen without names: hit them with all your moves that will critically injure them and probably kill them.
Fighting Bad guy with a name: we don't kill, we aren't like them.
Also, super butt Beatles are tight 😂
In the very end, the bad guy try to get a last shot at you, and you defend yourself by giving the bad guy a head shot.
No bad guys have ever gone to jail, except in Batman where they all escape again, they are always killed in a defensive way.
When you have double the standards:
...wait, I meant *_double standards_* lol
It’s super easy, barely an inconvenience to deal with Beatles. Just breathe and relax, breathe and relax.
SK is trash
Batman 1989 with Keaton did the same thing. Literally burn no-name bad guys to death, kill them with grenades, etc..but then try to save the evil leader...
(2:26) Thanks for pointing this out. When I saw the movie I accidentally said out loud "how did he get back in the lab if his keycard was stolen?" 😄
Heyshutup.
bro... in every superhero movie...Marvel or DC they have that stupid unlogical stuff.
@@giannisksanthopoulos4300illogical *
@@giannisksanthopoulos4300Lazy writing like this shudn be acceptable, yet it's so rampant.
@@kimmycat2977Never underestimate people and how much they're willing suspend their disbelief. Best example I can think of is Alien: Covenant and how the whole movie wouldn't happen if the colonists just wore spacesuits.
I don't know about you guys but the backwards audio made a ton of sense to me. I'd never thought of livestock that way. Thanks Ryan!
Oh god, Ryan and his brother George is amazing duo. Just love their Pitch Meeting videos.
I've seen many instances of genre fatigue in my life and it always coincides with an increasing lack of quality over time. Even though quantity is a factor, people would still care if quality remained high...but it never does.
A steak can be delicious, but if you give me the same delicious steak everyday I’ll still hate it after a while
buut... Blue Beetle is good... It's actually good. It actually holds up as good as early MCU.... Not the avengers, the before-avengers movies like Iron man
@@d4n737 Yeah, thats the problem. The real problem. People arent tired of superheroes, theyre tired of the same old repetitive formula. Of course, repetition is key part of the genre, but what works in one medum wont neccesary work in another. And even comics know to switch things up every so often so it feels fresh. In other words, a modern superhero movie cant be "as good as early MCU". We have moved past that. Not by too much, mind you. They just need to diferent enough. And not just diferent from past films, diferent from each other too.
Theres a reason why Guardians 3 worked when everything else failed, cause of all the superhero movies from this year, it has the most identity. All the others seem too much like generic superhero films. None of them its really bad, most go from mediocre to good as you say, but they lack personality and thats what kills them. Its not enough to just follow the formula anymore, now they need something else to stand out from the rest.
Action movies can be as generic as they like and still work cause the action its what matter the most, but what theyre supossed to be selling us with superhero movies is the hero. The action doesnt matter as much as the character, its just a means to an end. Which is why Guardians stays in people minds, the acion there is in service of the characters, not the other way around. I think the people on top, Faige and Gunn mainly, know this.
Theres a reason why phase 4 was all about experimentation. Not one movie was the same, nor were they particualy diferent, but the all have character. And im sure the dc movies after the new Superman will have a more distinct personality. This just happened to be a transitional year for both companies, a year full of bad timing due to the poor treatment the industry have for its writers.
I feel like Invincible and Spider-Verse are pretty clear demonstrations that people aren't tired of superhero stories or even origin stories they're just tired of thoughtless, carelessly made superhero stories
@@Ultinuc Blue Beetle is made with care tho. Certainly a lot of care for the hispanic community, referencing a lot of their media and values and tropes. I also feel like it did show a lot of very pretty sights that weren't made without passion. Actors had fun, people clearly WANTED to make this movie.
Blue Beetle is a movie that would have been awesome to watch... 10 or 15 years ago. In fact, if it had been the kind of movies that started the DCEU, it might have caught up to Marvel.
Haha no it wouldn't have.... If this came out 15 years ago.... It would have made green lantern look cool
@@Geraldo_Rivian Not really. This plot was alright, and actors did a good job. GL was trash in that too
Nooooooope. Iron Man 1 launched Marvel. Compare this mess of a movie to Iron Man 1. Blue Beetle feels like a PARODY of Iron Man, and still somehow has worse CGI 15 years later lol.
@@danielmedela8725 not really. GL had a plot that was great in its simplistic yet introductory lvl... At no point was the audience thinking why is this happening or shouldn't it be like this instead.... Etc

How does this man keep making these feel so fresh?! Way better than moviemakers bahahah
Passion 🎉
Super easy barely an inconvenience
Ryan only ever provides sharp commentary on the movie industry and I am always here for it
And in this case, it actually seems like he liked it (enough not to hate it). He just describes the movie and doesn't gut every single plot hole in it. To be fair, it was solid.
SK is trash
I am so glad i only got to see part of this movie... my son turned it on before i had to go to work. I got more than halfway through and wouldn't have even gotten that far along if my son (8 years old) hadn't been so into it.

I can NEVER get enough of these Pitch Meetings!
Blue Beetle was actually really good and is definitely one of the better DC films that came out in a long time
It was stupid movie. Who gives shit about latino people
Why did you state your opinion as fact and didn't even bother to back it up? Bot maybe?
@@TT09B5 who did??
I'm now watching Pitch Meetings for movies I didn't even know existed and I'm still sure I enjoy the pitch meeting more than I would have enjoyed the movie. Where are we at this point, pop culture-wise?
The 20lb back and forth is a deep psychological look into what one might think when they look into the mirror
Great pitch meeting, as always! Could you do one for Haunted Mansion? I absolutely love that movie and would love to see your take on it
oooh good idea! i also really enjoyed the movie
Ryan. You disappoint me. Letting such a movie promote your stuff. Really, up your game a little!
Also. Was the epilogue about the audio backward and no one being able to understand anything jab at the fact that half the movie was in Spanish? :-D
Wow, they both got a haircut at the same time.
One of these days, you should record a pitch meeting in half, where the producer is before your haircut, and the writer is after just to mess with people and see who notices.
He's gonna need you to get alll the way off his back about his haircut schedules..
He already does this on his channel with his super real and strong mustache.
I love getting to watch a Pitch Meeting instead of having to sit through the movie. 😀
Life hacks! Save time, frustration, and money!
Me too!😊
Honestly I'm this case it was worth it...
@Matt-ig4yk I agree. I WATCHED IT TWICE. It's well done regardless of it being a bit cookie cutter. As someone who liked the blue beetle a bit from previous media, I feel this movie captured the spirit of blue beetle incredibly well. Past versions as well as new.
To be fair I wouldn’t watch this regardless. 😑
Impressed they made it through this whole thing without one mention of Biobooster Armor Guyver. You know, the manga that's been around for decades about a piece of alien technology that attaches to a young man, turning him into a superhero with blue, similar-looking armor that can do just about anything he needs it to do, who has to escape from and fight against a huge corporate executive who wants to get their hands on the technology to use for their own nefarious ends?
Just came back from the movie theater
It is a fun movie, my son and I enjoyed it
And the cgi is leagues above the Flash 🤔
It looked great
I'll soon watch the Flash because it sounds like it actually tried to do something interesting with the story. If Blue Beetle does too, its marketing should have mentioned it
I no longer go to the cinema. I get my fix from watching pitch meetings. 👍🏻
I do this with the bad movies
Terrible thing to brag about
Oh , selection of movies based on pitch meetings is Tight
It’s way more entertaining
@@christopherbuckley11 I'd feel worse giving any money to buy a ticket to a shit film when no one even tried to make it good. Going to the cinema for the sake of it, is just stupid. You should give money to what you want to see more of.
Please do a pitch meeting for 'Snakes on a Plane'. Ta. 🐍
Yes, that would be good
YES
Ryan needs to see this comment.
I wonder whose idea it'll be to make the film more jokey.
How would that work? Snakes on a Plane amazingly is actually a good movie. Much better than 99% of anything in the last few years.
This was beautiful. Great job.
I love all of his videos, very funny. Keep up the great work Ryan
Ryan you are "the super hero" we needed! Cheers from Australia!
If you think about it Ryan is totally susceptible to the fatigue that afflicts film critics. It’s not the bad movies that wear you out, it’s the hundreds of movies that are just… okay.
I guess invincible , the boys and spider verse are unaffected
@@johnlawful2272 High enough quality products have a tendency to escape (sort of like how 28 Days Later, World War Z (the Book), and The Walking Dead (Season 1 and the game) were loved even though Zombie fatigue was very much a thing.
@@johnlawful2272 Ditto what the other guy said, plus those examples are all different enough takes on the premise that they have originality going for them. Although Invincible season 1 did end with a fight against a villain that has the same powers but evil and a different color, so not totally out of the box.
@@johnlawful2272Spiderverse popularized an entire animation style, of course It's unaffected

You're doing it wrong. There's no damn point watching a movie if you ALREADY KNOW EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS

@@ryananderson5202 YT keeps deleting my post. I wrote "Summer" and "Domestic". Mario released in mid spring. Summer domestic box office top 3 are Barbie, Spider-Man, GotG. Even if Spider-Man was 6th (and there's no chance, it's a better movie than Guardians) that would still prove my point.
@@markbrierley6367Yea, Spiderverse and Guardians 3 were the only superhero movies that were succesful and well received this year so it's more like bad and generic superhero fatigue
I'm pretty sure the Big Belly Burger Mascot is based on Screen Writer Guy.
It looks just like him.
I really hate how everyone blames “super hero fatigue” for movie failures when it’s just bad writing and awful acting.
I completely agree… super hero fatigue isn’t real… bad movie fatigue is real
@@felixestrada7265 Gonna disagree. I don't know if any of these movies were particularly good. They've all been vaguely different degrees of mediocre. Even the "good ones" from 10+ years ago. The snarky Marvel humor has aged horribly in all of them, including Iron Man where it all started.
Maybe you still like those older movies, and that's great for you. But me personally, I just don't get any of it anymore. Guardians 3 got all sorts of love with people talking about how emotionally draining it was, but I couldn't tell you what was supposed to make that movie so obviously superior to Thor Four. They seemed equally lame in quality to me.
Oh, and there's also a bit of a problem of, "Well, to fully understand this movie, you need to watch these movies and those TV shows." Being handed down homework in order to watch a movie is brutal. This problem can often be overstated of course, but it does still happen.
love that ( 2:29 "heyshuddup" moves on quickly)
2:39 "Oh, super butt bugs are _tight!"_ That's an... unfortunate choice of words.
Ryan is the Big Belly Burger logo? Wow.
I cant get enough of these...NEVER stop making these!
@5:00 So while The Late Show is on hiatus, Stephen Colbert is writing articles now?
3:46 Wasn't the blue beetle stolen from her? It was hers and *they* stole it; she just wants her shit back.
I feel like you guys don't even need to tell us "spoilers ahead!" because we're gonna watch it regardless lol
I'm HERE for the spoilers lol
And not watch the movie anyway.
It's sweet that he still cares even though it's totally not necessary by now.
Guys. Lol
@sweetredification yeah Ryan and George
Love your videos!
Barely heard of this movie but always watch the pitch meeting regardless 👌
1:59 I had same thought when I was watching the movie!!! Self incert, Mr. Screenwriter Guy!
The effort, creativity and editing that goes into Pitch Meetings is likely more than the movies he's talking about.
Never get tired of these!
“What if there was more to movie-making than wise cracking characters shooting energy beams?”
Can you even imagine how good that film world would be to live in?
Totally expected Ryan to pull an actual Easter Egg out of his pocket there.
I was waiting for this one since the first announcement of Blue Beetle
Yep. Superhero fatigue. Are we heading toward .. pitch meeting fatigue? That might be an inconvenience 😂. Nah, another cracking video. Encore Ryan👍👍👍👍
I didn't get where the scarab came from. Victoria is digging it up at the beginning & seems to be her current age, but also Ted Kord seems to have had it for decades. Plus, their military tech seems pretty marketable without it.
How is this even possible? You are getting better and better at creating hilarious content..Big big ups to you, this one is now my favourite. Cheers m8
"You're becoming better and better"? What a shite way to give him compliment. He's been top notch for quite some years now
Being top notch and getting better aren’t mutually exclusive. I’ve been watching for years and always thought it was great, but with the expansions and new creative ideas Ryan tests out it’s definitely always getting better.
1:51 - my thoughts exactly LOL
I actually enjoyed the movie. But I asked the same questions he had. How he get back in the lab or why is everyone else in the family okay with killing but the heros not??
Thanks for the video!
2:17 body shaming yourself that's tight
0:59 I really expected "I don't know where that is" as a reply
You forgot the fact that the film was filmed in Puerto Rico. The airport scene is where the Comic Con events are held, the long bridge scene where he falls from space it's called Puente Teodoro Moscoso, the scene where his family is outside supporting him for the job interview that's in Hato Rey.
Did he forget it? Where's the joke in that? Who cares where it was filmed?
@@MDestron2282 The joke is that Hollywood as always does not care about Puerto Rico once again like in every movie or series they make a reference to it. They were in WW1, WW2, Vietnam and many wars with USA and never mentioned in any adaptation on theater. The more shitty portraits on them the more people forget so it's understandable. Black Panther 2, Fast Five and the last season of Cobra Kai where filmed there and they portrait it as Peru or Mexico etc. That's the joke when someone pitch one of those ideas in meetings.
Is it just me, or are both these characters slowly descending further into madness?
