Brows Held High

It was in his trailer, so you're right, with The Klingon Hamlet and then The Lion King to follow.

Blip is shutting down and Kyle is migrating to YouTube.

To YT? How will he deal with copyright stuff? Sounds like a bad move (unless it's only a temporary thing).

He should have his own website & forum, like the Cinema Snob.

...having his own website won't change the fact that he has to host his videos somewhere.

Please for the love of god someone archive his stuff so I don't have to. Apparently the You Tube reuploads will have cuts and some might not go up at all.

Blip is shutting down? Shit. I guess I should have seen it coming after all this time.

Forbidden Planet

The robot sound cooler at first glance than it looked.

That's a unique point I hadn't known of, that Prospero would have been Obviously Evil to 1600s England because of his magic, when today he appears as a wise old sage.

Kyle's partway through migrating to Youtube. All his videos from last year are up, but he claims he may have to cut bits from the older ones that may not skirt those accursed auto-copyright machines. Including the Ghost Dog rap and the singing to Gerry parts. :(

The Klingon Hamlet Part 1

Huy' held jen Dun cha' (The two held a great high eyebrow.)

cha' Huy' held jen pong nIvmo'. (the value of name held two high Eyebrow.)

Gaah! Trying to say that Brows Held High is a great show and this was a funny episode.

This ain't even the only Klingon play. The first one was the Klingon Christmas Carol.

Part 2. To Be or no To Be

Okay, Klingon Falstaff and Iggy Azalea really caught me off-guard.

The Grand Lion Finale!

Huh. Wonder why I was expecting just a straight Hamlet comparison.

I just read about the epic of Sundiata earlier this year. Interesting stuff.

Because it's the one you usually here about probably, that's why I was expecting it.

No, what I meant was that Kyle's always delivered above expectations, so I was wondering why I expected him to only do the bog-standard direct Hamlet comparison.

I don't know, I mean we should know by now that he wouldn't. And yet, it's what the brain jumps to. I definitely like his insight and the different backgrounds he takes time to learn, so I should come to expect it, yet I don't always. Also that question was probably rhetorical huh?

Yes, it was.

Tony's songs in the mix there were pretty amusing.

Also, gonna copy/paste the comment I left on the video here: "Those were excellent points made about influence and how it is synthesized into newer pieces of art. To use a Biblical cliche, it's the idea of "nothing new under the sun"; one can take influence from a variety of sources and channel this influence into something of its own, without necessarily being those works. At the same time, stories, legends, tales, and even artwork from one culture can just so happen to resemble another culture's works (as in your example with Sundiata, if the people at Disney legitimately did not know about that). It's a point you make in most of your videos, when you discuss the works and ideas that influenced the filmmakers of the movies you analyze, but never has it been more apparent as a theme as it has in this review."

Kyle's 2013 archives are back

For anyone who was nervous about this given Kyle's Twitter comments: yes, the rhythmic walking singalong from Gerry...REDUX! is there in its entirety.

Anybody know this Cine-Kyle guy?

Interesting choice of book, Kyle.

Well I now know the definition of bad faith. I count this as a plus.
