Struggling to pinpoint the moment when the YouTube thumbnail meta became "make it look indistinguishable from a Tim and Eric still"

I make video essays about movies, but I also have some good qualities... https://www.youtube.com/@inframeout?themeRefresh=1
if I ever taught film criticism lesson one would be “you being smarter than the movie is not interesting to anyone”
Sometimes when people post racist or hateful comments on my videos, I'll click on their profile to report/block them and I'll have a quick look at the kind of videos they watch and subscribe to while I'm at it. Today, this was a real real big mistake. ....
Congrats Hulk Hogan on going a year without saying the N-word
New video! Cool Games(?) you may have missed(?) in 2026(?) so far. A handful of recommendations that somehow turned into extended musings on games as a whole. Featuring STUNTBOOST, Elfie: A Sand Plan, Blood Dungeon, and more 👀 youtu.be/26feHFM0vbA

My vans entertainment system has a bug where it sometimes gets a track name stuck and just keeps flashing it even when something else is playing....and this was a fun one to try and explain to my partner...thanks @thedreameaters.bsky.social
It's surprising how many out-and-proud neo-Nazis show up in the comments section of YouTube video essayists. Wait, I didn't mean to say "surprising". I meant to say "depressingly normal now"
NEW VIDEO! "Citizen Vigilante" is a grift in the shape of a burning cross. Uwe Boll’s latest release is a targeted campaign of racist disinformation and propagandised bigotry built to entice chuds and deflect blame from those Boll owes his career to: artless tax cheats. youtu.be/RsbwgGoZUaY?...
So, my next video is going to be debunking every single thing the racist propaganda film "Citizen Vigilante" says or stands for, and to save time for the pieces of shit who will no doubt spam the comments section, I made this handy bingo card for their extremely predictable gish-galloping cuntyness.
Alex Meyers went from reviewing cartoons and Disney Channel movies to Obsession. It did not go well. Check out my latest video on how horribly he misreads movies, including one of the year's best horror films. www.youtube.com/watch?v=EwQp...

My review of "Evil Dead Burn": a good but not great movie that marries heads through windshields with twerking asses, and reminds the world that you can absolutely have too much of a rad thing boxd.it/faB80d
anton chigurh: heads or tails. you must chose. me: is that a Prince Valiant cut? anton: yeah it used to have more volume me: you want to use something light on it, no silicone-heavy washes and of course... both of us (laughing): blow dry from the roots! me: alright heads anton: it's tails
This is an accurate representation of "the discourse" now, and that clicking sound you're currently hearing is someone cocking the hammer and putting a gun in the mouth of all cultural discussion whenever anyone does anything Elon Musk can't cum about.
I hate to say it. I really, truly do. New Jackass is a devastating bummer
Hey, @movieswithmark.bsky.social. Do you want to lend some VO to my next video where I go into the absolute hellscape of "Citizen Vigilante"'s campaign of disinformation?
"Everybody at the new bar that doesn't serve bigots was really mean to me, and nobody bought me a drink or commented on my credentials or wanted to talk to me. This place was stupid, and everybody who goes there is stupid."
The progressive version of Twitter offers a world of vicious, sneering odium that only those who see themselves as kinder humans dish out 🔗 https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/07/03/is-there-anything-more-pathetic-than-a-bluesky-user/?WT.mc_id=tmgoff_li_pathetic-than-a-bluesky-user/
NEW VIDEO! "High Fidelity" is one of the most perfectly cringy indictments of "nice guy" dirtbags & gatekeepers ever made. So, why are so many retrospectives and shit-lib Letterboxd reviews incapable of differentiating between "depiction" & "endorsement"? youtu.be/UZDsFJIjpCk?... #highfidelity

give it up for the gta2 box art. just sniping the hood of a taxi for no goddamn reason
Me when a video essay is bad: It's fine, at least they're making something. Making things is hard, as long as they're having fun! Me when music is bad: this is a fucking affront to art and everyone who likes this is a fucking idiot
‘Lilo & Stitch’ creators Chris Sanders & Dean DeBlois have shared a piece of artwork honoring the late Daveigh Chase. Chase voiced Lilo in the ‘Lilo & Stitch’ film.
Last time I checked, Jesse Lacey wasn't interested in anything or anyone over 15.
Writing on Games (@writingongames.bsky.social) is the reason my work exists, & their integrative approach to textual & mechanical analysis is what I aspire to. Movies With Mark (@movieswithmark.bsky.social) is an empathetic bastion of film history, cultural commentary and fighting the chuds.
Do you have a favorite video essayist, like not just a Top 5, but a #1 favorite? I have so many favorites, so many who influence what I try to do with video essay, and yet I realized today that my #1 favorite might be @summoningsalt.bsky.social?
Today it was revealed that - with a budget of $659 million - the god-awful "Jurassic World: Dominion" is the most expensive movie ever made. Or, let me put that in a way that will make you vomit. That turd cost more than the combined budgets of the following 61 movies. .
