Deadpool: How to Advertise in 2017 – Wisecrack Edition

it's like how do you have that whole video, then have non cynical advertising at the end. ball dropped in a big way.

e unibus pluram talks about a similar thing, but says a an uber sincere group of thinkers will come into being, and then be quickly laughed out of existence. But it makes me think of all the wholesomeness flying around the internet right now

I fucking love your videos, Wisecrack. Like Deadpool, you are the perfect middle point, the balance between absolute nihilistic cynicism and heartfelt earnest sincerity.

What's with you and millenials, jeez

An you do a metal gear series? 😀

I enjoy how the video itself had some cynicism about the channel itself

I didn't watch the blade runner video because of the spoilers and i have to watch it first

so /dont/ live in a barrel with dogs?

Please do The Philosophy of The Leftovers

what level of irony are you operating on. I think we need a video essay on how to count irony levels.

i almost never dislike videos but you couldnt even pretend to try to be cynical at the end… i listened, i waited for something like "if you feel like breaking a c note for something youll only wear less than half of the day, less than half a year… when you clicked on this video to be informed but i figured youre dumb as shit and want to buy sun glasses, randomly at 1 in the morning, then do i have a deal for you, for less than the amount of money off as you could find in a wal mart parking lot… sunglasses that cost more than a lot of prescription glasses"… shit… sell lootcrates bro.

Im sry the bladerunner vid didnt get as many views but plz do a further philosophy breakdown plz plz plz!!!

Don't buy fucking MVMT watches, for fucks sake. You're paying for a shitty $20 Chinese watch for 10x the price. Take it from a watch guy. At the price, I'd rather this video be sponsored by Seiko or Citizen even.

Bladerunner 2049 got me rock hard

Don't worry guys I saw the video on Blade Runner 2049 I know how good it is

BR HUEHUEHUEHUE IS EVERIUERI

according to Matpat from @Filmtheory, the random essay about the old man in the sea is about Deadpool revealing that he is actually Ernest Hemingway or something like that

Please just make a video on whiplash

I think there's a very good reason being "cynical" is (or at least has been) lobbed as a critique of character. A failing.
Going back to the first cynic, who apparently lived a pretty unpleasant life just to attempt to mock philosophers (apparently smarter than he) is pretty damning of cynicism. But add to it that it's basically become just another tool of advertisers (the weapon of our corporate masters) really illustrates the flaws in holding cynicism in any sort of adoring light.

Honestly, cynicism is just giving up while making sarcastic quips. So you can be mocked, bullied, oppressed, lose control of your own once-democratic government through non-participation, all while offering zero resistance to those who'd do to you as they please. Because you stand for nothing and cannot be united as a people. Yeah, I mean, why wouldn't corporations want to encourage the adoption of cynicism in the culture at large?

The last thing they want is to encourage sincerity and empathy and determination.

I don't think cynical advertising sells perse, but I believe an advertisement acknowledging itself as an advertisement–a thing that no one wants to watch–is a good advertisement. I understand advertising pays the bills, but don't belittle my intelligence by acting as if my life would benefit ten fold from your product. Cynicism does play a role in modern advertising, but it is not ultimately the message.

You should do a philosophy on the punisher tv series

My first experience with this shit was way back years ago when the burger "king" with the creepy mask was a thing. A lot of my friends simply started choosing BK when they got fast food because their advertising was cynical and humorous.

Do something on A Christmas Story It’s such a classic

So many of my favorite things in one place! Deadpool, Rick and Morty, Bob Ross, Mr Robot, Cynicism and Old Spice!

Deadpool is my favorite super hero he is the most relatable most realistic hero and I love the meta 4th wall breaks he does because let's face it superhero movies are overrated and predictable

The Blade Runner video is way too early, the movie was freshly out and given its minimal campaign and tough competitors that it would be drown and only to be rediscover.

Diabeetus water

not masochism, not foolishness?

can y0u do an episode on cats. this video was good, but i had to pause to watch my cat up my box spring on the wall. they're tiny killing machines and humanity loves them.

Bob Ross is not ironic. He is a genuine amazing person, just like Mr. Rodgers. Everyone I know loves him because he is a truly unique human of empathy and love.

This is like a joke without a punchline. People mock consumerism, big deal. If the mockery does not emphasize caution in purchasing habits, then there is no point to it besides that extra layer of wool over one's eyes.

Did you have to bring Sloterdijk into this? I hate that guy.

He smoked a blunt and counted his ad revenue just as rick sanchez would. #lol

Hey Jared,
I've had the Blade Runner quick take in my "watch later" list since it came out, and I'm going to watch it! I simply just want to watch the movie before I watch your video.
Keep making awesome content!

Oh, I get. It's cynical because MVMT watches are actually garbage and look cheap. Very nice. Good job.

Best part is that he wasn't wearing the products he was advertising at the end ad while counting money

You seem to really hate Deadpool for some reason. Actually….. I know what that reason is. You don't understand the Character; nor do you understand the people making the Deadpool movies. Placing the Deadpool movies under Sloterdijk's banner of "Cynicism" in the sense of putting no heart into your work and only doing it for the paycheck is completely and utterly ridiculous — one only has to look at the literal decade of continuous struggle against the actual money-people, as well as the way the creators (and Ryan Reynolds in particular) talk about the Character, his place in Pop Culture, as well as his Comics to know for a fact that those guys come from just about as genuine place as possible in the movie industry.
Of course, you don't understand the Character himself either. In Marvel Comics, Deadpool is specifically given the role of being the voice of the fans. Or, in other words, the voice of the reader. It DOESN'T MATTER whether he effects change or is himself much different from what he criticizes; that isn't his role . His role is to see something being done to death, or just to observe current or past trends, and comment on it on behalf of the fans/readers/viewers. And the Deadpool movies capture that side of his Character perfectly .

I was totally waiting for the ad spot at the end to be more Deadpool-like. "Blah blah blah fancy watches. Blah blah blah lots of money. Blah blah blah code wisecrack. Blah blah blah give me money." XD

Can you do philosophy of "Mother!"? That movie is a total mind fuck

i wanna these sunglasses and etc. Thanks for ad

Ha ha! Gay Org Simmel

BO burn

It'll follow the movements of art:
modernism, postmodernism, post-postmodernism.

Google play link is not working…

Cynicism is just the latest attempt at coping.

Diogenes sounds fun to hang out with some pot and french fries.
