    The Justice League movie was not very well received back in 2017 and was met with a lot of negative fan reactions online. But one good thing did come out of the online reaction from fans- it led to the creation of Pitch Meetings! Thanks, Warner Bros!

    My 15 year old daughter and I have watched every Pitch Meeting over and over again for years. Last year for Mother's Day, she wrote and performed a Pitch Meeting just for me, and it was the best gift I have ever received in my life. She gave me a hand copy written of her script, and I thought you might get a kick out of it. Thanks for your videos, we love them!
    Producer Guy: So you have a movie for me?
    Write Guy: No sir I don't.
    PG: Huh?
    WG: Well, since it's mother's day, I thought I would pitch you a mother instead.
    PG: Oh? What kind of mother?
    WG: A really awesome one.
    PG: Like how awesome?
    WG: The Rock level of awesome.
    PG: Wow, wow, wow. That's one solid mother.
    WG: Yes sir she is.
    PG: But how can we monetize her?
    WG: Super easy, barely an inconvenience.
    PG: Oh really?
    WG: Yes. What if we didn't?
    PG: Wait, you're telling me that we don't make money off this pretty and hard working mum?
    WG: Yes sir I am.
    PG: Okay, so why is she important then?
    WG: Well because she is very cool like a fridge. Also she only sometimes steals teddy bears and she is such a nice person that if you get sick she will take care of you.
    PG: Being a good mum is tight.
    WG: Yeah, when I got sick my mum would just push food at me with a stick.
    PG: A very traumatic childhood.
    WG: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
    PG: Well, since you're pitching such a great mother, let's get her a gift.
    *One shopping spree later*
    WG: Here you go awesome mother. Love Ash.

      Doubleplus amazing when hes like”WOW that one was AWFUL!” and Im over here buttless, having laughed my butt off.
      Ive been watching pitch meetings for years..I think this and the content on Dead Meat are legitimately the best film criticism out there… theyre both really positive and leave room for people to enjoy things, while also pointing out the Nonsense and being incisive and, like, objectively correct in most of what they say.
      Both do it in a hilarious way but entirely without malice, and I’m here for it!
      In a way, Ryan is turning that same critical eye to his own stuff. James at dead meats doing the same. Explicitly as of late; hes doing recounts for the Scream series.
      Ofc Ryan still makes other vids that render me buttless. Even the adstronaut frequently renders me buttless.

    I see two comedic uses of fuck or f*ck respectively. I agree with the bleeps being funny in a setting where the swearing itself is out of character or unexpected.
    I am highly against bleeping in a context where the words would be expected and where the comedic value comes from the character saying the word the way they do.
    Example A: Dad brings sleeping kid to bed, lovingly gazes, tucks them in, turns around and quietly leaves the room, steps on a Lego and yells F*CK! The bleep emphasizes how inappropriate the word is in the setting and thus creates comedy; thank you for coming to my TED Talk.
    Example B: Two Wisconsin dudes on a porch smoking herbs while having deep dialogue. One of them says a different variation of "Fuck." every now and then. An alien spaceship appears and turns the sky into fire. The dudes look up and one says, after a dramatic pause: "... Fuck."
    Bleeping this removes the comedy because it creates emphasis on the word being inappropriate in context, which doesn't fit. It also replaces the nuances of the differently pronounced "fucks" with a generic tone.
    Bleeps done right: IT Crowd.
    Bleeps done wrong: Key&Peele's sketches turned family-friendly.

      @TiMonsor Před rokem +5

      I worked as a movie critic and we had a series «awkward questions» - nitpicking a movie, listing all the plot holes. But again when i was watching a movie I barely thought about that stuff, just watched a movie. And then you think "it was pretty ok, I will hardly be able to get 20 questions out of it". And then you sit down and THINK ABOUT THE MOVIE FOR REAL. As soon as you start, it begin to fall apart and you end up with 100+ questions.
      Its not hard to do, Ryan's genius not just in noticing the plot hole but in joking about it so perfectly.
      And another huge perk - he barely ever NOT mention the main things, the ones you yourself were annoyed by and are waiting for Ryan to mention.

    This is a very good thing you're doing, not just for viewers/fans but for those also engaging in some form of creative arts. CZcamsrs and comedians I'm sure. I write, and I think for younger & newbie writers, too. You had stumbled on a good thing back then, but you are so much better at it now. You committed to it, kept at it, worked hard and took it seriously (I have no doubt!)...this is what you have to do and what I think sometimes folks newer at such things don't get. You don't start out instamatically at the top of your game, some of your early stuff might be cringey at times, and doing nothing because you don't think it will be good enough certainly isn't going to help anything. You keep at it and you will (almost always!) improve. Eh, anyway, that's my main takeaway from this. You could just as easily post it as a kind of motivational video.

    I’ve always wondered if he’s been saying “super easy barely any inconvenience” since the first one. 😭👏🏾

      And now every time I hear it, I will think of the avengers movie.

    Finally an explanation of how the Pitch Meeting Cinematic Universe got started.

    I remember that first Pitch Meeting vividly. I STILL find myself wishing that the "Barely matters" became a catchphrase too.

    I can't believe that you write these yourself, I always thought it was attached to screen rant because there was a writing staff.. Seriously dude it's impressive how you pick these films apart and funny as hell.

      For real. It's such a clever idea with endless content. It's like the "Wine About It" guy before he went solo. I actually think Pitch Meeting could last without Screen Rant too.

      I always knew Ryan wrote those. I knew his channel before ScreenRant's own, and I always knew Ryan was funny and always thought ScreenRant was mid.
      Aint no way ScreenRant can write something so good

    I'd love to see an entire "How It's Made: Pitch Meeting" edition, if there isn't one already. Where Ryan stands in front of a green screen and acting it out. Or a bloopers section!

    I haven't seen JL, but this Stepenwolf character looks like Tim Curries character from Legend.
    Also, I think Park was a summer replacement, like Seinfeld. That had a slow start too.

    When I saw John Mulaney's Back to the Future routine in his stand up act I immediately thought of you! Awesome that he helped inspire your work. Love all your Pitch Meetings. The first one I saw was your Shazam Pitch meeting. I was immediately hooked and can't get enough of your stuff. Thanks for the many hours of laughs.

    That callback to the unexpected swearing was perfect comedic timing Ryan its why I love your sketches well done. So seems like regardless of what you make it’s you the person that keeps us here.

    It's amazing to see that this one sketch became a thing, then carried the screen rant channel super easily and now, with barely an inconvenience, developed into your own million subs channel. I think you can count all YT channels with such consistent quality output on 2 hands.

      1000% this. Pretty sure there's only tumbleweeds left at that channel 😅

    Its amazing how long you have been making Pitch Meetings! Also, still super cool to see "the real Ryan" talking at the camera! As for a question, what are your genuine top 5 favorite movies?

    "Tight" has been around for so so long. Since the 90s I believe. It's tight to hear people use it nowadays. Takes me back
