Hosts & Guests
Covered:
(15:16 - 1:53:56) *Video One*
You Didn't Finish The Game (The Jimquisition) by Jim Sterling (Aka: Jim Big Bald Mad)
-
(18:42) "Whenever a controversial review comes out, and a fandom gets mad, which it always does, because the fanbase is fucking exhausting."
-
(28:01) "I’m here to point out the tactical stupidity of using that concept [Reviewers need to finish video games] to defend a videogame from a big mean reviewer what didn’t like it."
-
(32:46) "This argument is treated by many fandoms as the ultimate gotcha, the holy grail of self-soothing justice - if they can prove a reviewer didn’t finish a game, or just convince themself of it, they can discredit said review completely."
-
(42:36) "If they got what they wanted and they forced every reviewer to play every game to thorough completion, it would be far more likely to lower a score than raise it."
(44:43) Quick Opinions on Hill House, Bly Manor & Midnight Mass
-
(45:37) "You can’t improve someone’s opinion of something by cramming it down their throat."
-
(56:58) "The further I got into it [Boltgun], the more tired I became, the more its little minor flaws began to bug me, and the lower my opinion sank."
(59:30) Linus Tech Tips Drama / SOMA Reviews / Resident Evil 4 Remake / Gollum
(1:06:16) Darkest Dungeon 1 & 2 changes / Theo throws a wrench

(1:34:54) Indigo Gaming gives rare IGN praise
(1:37:01) He-Man characters, Rags loves them!
-
(1:39:41) "I could show them a 100% completed save file and it wouldn’t make a difference, they’d find something else."
-
(1:50:34) "And they will claim anything, no matter how unreasonably, to chop up some onions, dip that reality in gravy, and shove it down your fucking throat."
-
(1:50:59) "It's not about whether the reviewer spent enough arbitrary time in the game before giving their opinion in a review that ultimately won't matter."
(1:57:21 - 4:28:05) *Video Two*
You Don't Need To Finish Games by GC Vazquez (Aka: Breaking Theos Soul... again)
(1:57:53) Theo realizing what kind of video this will be
-
(1:58:43) "Time constraints I had as a child when it came to playing games sparked a very early obsession with finishing them. Before the 5-day period was up, I. Had. To. Beat. That. Game."
-
(1:59:10) "I needed to make sure I could keep up with the kids at school, I couldn’t lose to Lewis and his uncle at Nintendo, telling him how to unlock dragon Kazooie. Cheating Scumbag."
-
(2:00:17) "The resource constraints (and misunderstanding of ethical pirating) I had as a teenager when it came to playing games sparked an adolescent obsession with finishing them. Because any game would take a week to download, I. Had. To. Beat. That. Game."
(2:03:09) Borrowing games / Used games & Devs / One-time game codes
-
(2:07:31) "I bought these games, and I needed to squeeze every dollar out of them. Because they burned a huge hole in my wallet, I. Had. To. Beat. Those. Games."
-
(2:10:42) "The desperate need for approval I had as an adult sparked a consuming obsession with finishing games. Before I could talk about it in a thoughtful, powerful way I. Had. To. Beat. That. Game."
(2:16:18) Narrow streets vibing / World design in games / Shenmue coolness
-
(2:18:55) "So eventually, one existential crisis after another, you start learning a lot about yourself."
-
(2:21:17) "I’ve done a lot of thinking. Figured some of it out. If you’ve ever experienced something like those scenarios from my own life, I have something important to tell you: You Don’t Need To Finish That Game." *End me now.*
(2:24:19) Video game play order / Dark Souls recommendation
-
(2:32:14) "From a very young age, we’re taught video games need to be finished before we deserve to have another one."
-
(2:37:15) "Knowing more about a video game than someone else when you’re ten years-old is like being Christ reborn in the minds of other children."
-
(2:52:41) "You lose the sense of belonging in your social circles when all your friends are talking about a game you haven’t played yet, or when everyone’s getting on Xbox live to play Gears 3’s horde mode...but you don’t have it."
(2:56:13) Just play games you enjoy! / Shad throws a spanner! / Skarm – Rags confused
-

(3:15:00) "But...what’s the point in buying and playing games if you don’t...beat them...right?"
(3:17:50) Theos Prediction
-
(3:18:12) "If you ask me, the presence of a backlog implies we’ve never grown out of our childhood habits."
(3:31:10) Adam & Sitch cringe
(3:32:14) Completionists / Trophies/Achievements / Refund policies
-
(3:50:37) "Now that we’re older, does it really matter if you know every secret or cool fact about a game?"
-
(3:56:08) "Aren’t we fully aware we’ll never be able to play every game in existence and lead healthy functional lives at the same time?"
(3:58:22) The greatness of TotalBiscuit (Check him out! It's an order.)
(4:02:56) The Rey Film / Andor / Star Wars
-
(4:10:08) "Being someone who talks and thinks a lot about this stuff for the sake of making videos, you’d assume I’m acting like I’ve liberated myself from the clutches of nefarious marketing strategies, and toxic gaming culture. Not true. My need to beat games is the worst it’s ever been."
-
(4:24:32) "I think, to an extent, we’re all scared of being wrong about how we feel. And I don’t think we should be."
(4:27:34) Theos Prediction - The result
(4:36:17 - 7:13:44) *Video Three*

(5:53:22) Doggo gets the save
(5:57:29) Talking about the article from the video (Found here)
-
(6:03:30) "In other, other words the trolley problem itself is some real sicko shit."
-
(6:12:21) "The trolley problem is less about ethics and more about training future technocrats to pick how many of us it's okay to kill with their cool new products."
(6:44:24) Talking about Phillipa Foots 1967 paper (Found here)
-
(6:57:12) "In a life-or-death trolley problem situation, which to be clear we are all very unlikely to ever experience."
-
(6:59:52) "Ultimately ethics can't rely on calculations about what might or might not happen in an imagined future."
-
(7:04:24) "It's much more useful in trying to think about how to ethically exist in our actual world."
-
(7:06:36) "Is there still a place for the trolley problem in the philosophy 101 classes of the world or is it too abstract to help us think ethically?"
(7:13:53- 8:46:54) *Video Break*

A person you have heard of so even though it may get me in trouble I'm gonna do a Filmento exclusive expose of who that is at the end though because I don't want to get in too much trouble and because in order for that exposure to make sense my cash grab argument has to make sense first."

-
(4:32:49) "There's no rules and movies don't need to be primarily about telling a story."
-
(4:37:12) "If you want to show how an Inuit family survives the winter do that and if you want to just do a bunch of fun Mario theme scenes and game elements with story from functioning basically as scotch tape to make it feel like one big thing, you are welcome to do that as well if audience wants to see it more power to you these are not bad movies, they're bad stories, they're bad stories, but if story is not the top priority it won't ruin the movie why would it because actually if you're thinking about it's not even that these are bad stories."
-
(4:48:18) "A soundtrack's job is to just hang in the background it is to be filler and then to jump out at certain points and do music things and make us feel music things, exactly the same with story in these movies it is filler it is supposed to be in the background to not make noise to not make us feel things and then at certain points it jumps out and does story things."

-
(6:13:39) "Writer director James Gunn knew there was no way out for rick, so he solved the problem with some random bullshit happening and you'd be wrong because immediately after the ceiling falls rick and peacemaker get up and start fighting."

-

(7:13:08) "The biggest problem with the walking dead is that its action is too realistic and I don't mean it's too graphic or too lifelike in any aesthetic sense I mean when a group of characters is attacked the writers sometimes just kill one off at random."
-
(7:17:59) "I can't think of a greater way to disrespect the character than to kill them or spare them from death for a reason that has nothing to do with their character."
-
(7:27:37) "That my friends is why I don't like realistic unpredictable violence in media because that unpredictability is just the back door for the writer to personally enter the story and play god, taking agency away from characters at moments when their choices should be front and center."
-

Elijah Woods' Acting In Some Scenes
The Lord of The Rings had a star-studded cast. Sparkling performances by the likes of Ian McKellen and Viggo Mortensen made the movies iconic, as they are considered today. However, when rewatching the Lord of The Rings movies, one notices Elijah Woods' acting as Frodo Baggins falters more than once.
There were some awkward moments when Elijah Woods' performance seemed forced and even comical, like when Frodo collapsed after Gandalf sacrificed himself in his battle with Balrog. His acting leaned towards the dramatics of constantly screaming and being in pain, which got old quickly. Elijah Wood was great as Frodo, but some of these moments detracted from his performance.

Certain Visual Effects Look Clunky
All the visual effects and CGI work in The Lord of The Rings movies were groundbreaking, and it won Academy Awards, too. However, when viewed after two decades, certain few scenes look clunky and less than refined, especially since modern-day viewers are used to slick, more realistic CGI.
One particular sequence that stood out was Frodo's fever dream in The Fellowship of the Ring, when he was injured by Nazgûl's Morgul blade. As Frodo dreamed in Rivendell, a translucent Elrond swayed in and out of sight. This particular scene felt jarringly different from the rest of the movie and resembled a bad music video. It looked out-of-place and still feels strange when viewers watch it today.
