lol, liking this template. but this editing on this is actually fairly standard, its the amount of insane shots/massive budget that give it the effect. the editing in the music vid above is more hyped up 2010's youtuber style imo
right but here's the thing: those who're clapping for Starz or whoever doing this - the clappers think they're clapping because you're all on the same page of righteousness and taking down a bad dude - the company isn't on that page, as you yourself note - they're just about the bottom line and not wanting toxic associations. so it seems like clapping as if this is a pure moral win is kinda ... bullshit? or misguided at the very least
except, why start from the assumption that these massive media corporations have good morals and are 'doing the right thing' to be righteous sweethearts? it can be Interpreted as 'consequences' sure, but that's a retroactive interpretation imo
you mistook my point, it's not about if they're all on the same level (which isn't something we can say without the benefit of hindsight anyway). if we're painting with the moral paintbrush of 'artists who are bad people deserve their records thrown out', then .... you kind of have to follow that train all the way down
post a comment about it here for clout, wait till the back patting responses roll in, then film yourself putting it in the trash for your ig story. what else is there to do?
my point was, the doc does not cross the line into being Overtly sympathetic - or apologizing or rationalizing the behavior. every doc is a balancing act of complicity and being critical. i dont feel 'played' if those are indeed her leanings - she made a good film either way. it still explored the issues i wanted to hear about. why they are there, i have no idea
that's fair (though I do believe you thought all those thoughts, lol) - i think it just comes down to wether a film being 'sympathetic to incels' is a morally bad thing. it's worth remembering its the extreme edge cases who carry out the actual acts of violence - the rest of them are complicit but also you know frustratingly human and occasionally relatable - and the doc explores that. to me, it was a worthwhile documentary either way
interesting. i mean, every doc is 'blinkered', its just editing and the logistics of scope. i found it very effective at portraying that alienation and a solid explanation of the 'culture' for outsiders. if you relate to the people more than you want to well, they are people. sometimes being left to draw your own conclusions is more powerful (even though these types of films rn tend to be opening themselves up to being dragged for doing the opposite of their purpose)
well ok solid thoughts, maybe watch TFW No Gf and get back to me? lets have a educated conversation about it. this kneejerk 'an incel doc? how dare someone make that' is laughable. judge with your eyes people
