you should totally do a video on book/movie White Bird in a Blizzard.
Lost in adaptation The Adventures of Tintin would make my year!
I haven't seen this movie, but one complaint I heard is that because there were no telepaths in this movie, there was no reason to erase his memory to begin with, thus invalidating the whole premise of the movie. Would that be a fair statement?
Hey there, Dom, you sexy manbeast. Would you ever consider doing a Lost In Adaptation of Kingsman? It's based on a comic book series called The Secret Service. This movie is one of my favourites and I'd love to see a LIA on it c:
Can u review the dexter book and tv show
Hey, I recently became a huge fan of your work. I was wondering if you would do an episode about "I am number 4". Any reply would make my day.
"Simultaneoushly"
See I thought your apartment changed because, 1, you moved, and 2, the patreons were providing the Big Bucks now to let you move around 😛
Thank you for reminding me that everyone in this movie has a American accent even though only Britain and Australia are left in this movie’s world
I remember watching this
The Terrence cameo at the end is exactly why I would never want to skip one of your skits. Yet another great episode of lost in adaptation, keep up the good work
Thanks for the epilepsy warning!
What was that voice you were doing the whole vid
Goddammit why is Post-Apocalyptic Dom so good-looking 😛
TERRENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What's with the dom's voice in this vídeo?
No joke, I met John Cho not long after I saw this movie. I said he was good in this film and his response was "Oh Yeah, I was in that."
"A wizard did it."
"Of-fucking-course. TERRENCE!"
— I choked on my soda laughing.
10:00 Lord Of The Rings was also considered unacceptable because of its length (too long) and had a weird ending (Giant birds who were supposed to not care about about the situation earlier come to save the day). And who would have though a film based on a comic with a talking racoon would be hit? I think the original story could be adapted if it was done by people who cared and weren't under the thumb of the Hollywood studios.
Damn dirty Ravenclaw, The Order of Hufflepuff shall have REVENGE
Oh no, I was looking forward to this review so much (because I haven't actually watched the movie) but then the warning came up right away 🙁 Thank you, however, for adressing this issue… You can't imagine how much I appreciate that. Too many content creators nowadays don't care putting up warnings for things like epilepsy and the likes, and it's much more common than one might think. Well, I guess it's a good thing then that I decided to not watch this movie in cinemas back when it came out!
Greetings from Germany ♥
Have you ever thought about doing a video on "the boy with the Cuckoo-Clock Heart"?
Oh you give a warning on this but not when you have an internal shot of you being eaten alive, great.
I've watched the original hundreds of times on tv it always sucks you in! Brilliant film. The new one? What in the holy fuck were they doing ? I can't stand it, totally un rewatchable!!!
Love your voice in this <3
13:40 I woudl've gone with " get it because there is a lift that goes through the Earth" but hey
Do "Minority Report" next!!!
Loved that movie!
I usually like dumb story elements in reviews, but imo it just didn't work here. Utopian Future Dom was almost indistinguishable from regular Dom aside from the outfit, whereas Dystopian Future Dom's gravely voice was a constant distraction after watching two videos of Dom sounding like Dom.
Not to mention, while the reveal of Terrance's involvement was funny, I felt like there wasn't much payoff, which disappointed me.
Good reviews, and again I dont hate story stuff on principle, I just want it to be better.
There was a series "Total recall 2070". Looks like it has nothing to do with book at all
