Additionally, much of the content produced by BreadTube aligns with this perspective. For instance, the well-known Wendigoon takedown approached a duration of nearly three hours and scarcely addressed Wendigoon or conservative horror filmmakers.
Wait it's THAT guy? The Horror tuber who tried to take down Wendigoon and then got horribly bullied by the unsubscribe guys and their audience?

The one who mocked Wendigoon for wearing a hawaiian shirt while wearing a hawaiian shirt himself?

Or is this someone else who tried to take down Wendigoon?
 
it appears that BreadTube is now directing its attention toward Red Letter Media.
I watched this guy's video on RLM and put at 2x speed about half way through. He takes 30 minutes to basically make the point that Mike and Jay are old and tired and disillusioned with modern movies. He brings up Hegel's writings on alienation like he's making some grand point and spends so much time making obvious points like "companies don't make movies to make art, they make movies to make money." This is the video equivalent of padding out an essay for a class assignment

As far as I can tell, Reddit continues to support them. Why go after red letter media now? Nightmare Masterclass might be the most crackhead looking of all the breadtubers. Even for a community full of drug addicts.
since I can't see that anyone has already posted it: preservetube for the RLM one

When they are right, they are right.

Completely called Stranger Things and what would happen if they kept going right after season 1

A lot of smarter people were pointing this out when the first season originally aired. It was obvious when everyone went so overboard with their praise of the show what the draw was for a lot of people. Deep down a lot of people likely knew there were questions about if the show can take the remainder of the series into a sustainable direction.

I think naturally people are inclined to believe that a lot of television is destined to fail as the series goes on. It is hard for television shows to really maintain that momentum and know how to properly end their story. I remember as early as 2013, when Game of Thrones was at its height, there were people already pointing out the issues with the series and correctly predicting what the remainder of the show was going to be like. Sure enough they ended up being completely correct.
 
What happened with Stranger Things? The first season was OK, the second was average at best and it looked like they were already running out of ideas. I saw the trailer for S3 and gave it a pass.

The Duffer Brothers had one good idea, and they've run it into the ground for 5 seasons.

I think it's obvious that they had no plan for season 2 and just redid season one again with small tweaks. I have always assumed they wanted the show to be an anthology series but Netflix made them continue with the same cast and storyline. (But, in truth, the Duffers probably didn't care because the show was so successful.)

Feels like a classic case of a simple story that was intended as a single season getting the ending muddled by the studio 'just in case' it catches on.

A big problem came when they made 90% of the hook based around nostalgia and being a period piece. And not in the good, realistic way. In the very superficial way we see with a lot of shows set a few decades back. It came off more like a caricature, especially when so much of it was based around pop culture references and fandom oriented nostalgia. I groaned when their costumes for Halloween were the Ghostbusters.

Nostalgia baiting can't carry a show forever. They had some basic foundations with their actual story, but they ultimately failed at figuring at where to actually take it.
 
don't forget patton oswalt's wife
Patton Oswalt - "did you know he killed his wife?"
John Landis - "did you know he decapitated three people on the set of Twilight Zone The Movie?"
Phil Hartman - "R.I.P., best actor ever, I'll never forgive Andy Dick for literally shoving coke up Hartman's wife's nose"

Did I miss anything? Maybe Matthew Broderick's car crash?

Patton lost it again and stabbed Rob Reiner to death.

Too soon?

Did you know Christopher Walken was on the yacht with Robert Wagner the night Natalie Wood drowned?
 
I may have heard about that, but I don't think it's a "like clockwork" situation like the examples I named.
You're right, it's more of a boomer thing I think and not an internet thing.

Or maybe it's just the weirdos I interact with. I feel like I shouldn't know about it but I've had old people bring it up enough around me.
