Breadtube if it didn't suck.

Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.

Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.

There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.

A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.

Literally precisely what happened to me. The hallway was sh.itjust.works and the whispers through the door were quality memes

[–] wtypstanaccount04@hexbear.net 34 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I've done a bit of video editing before so I know just how much effort was put into this. Amazing work comrade.

[–] TankieTanuki@hexbear.net 17 points 2 years ago

Thanks. It was a shitpost that got out of hand because I was having fun making it. Learned some new techniques too.

[–] Melonius@hexbear.net 33 points 2 years ago

It's a cute movie. I was obsessed with submarines for like two weeks after I first saw it.

There's another fun scene with the communists where they yell about praxis and direct action. I recently learned that the effort poster is supposed to be this guy.

[–] autismdragon@hexbear.net 26 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What movie is it?

Saw it years ago and I enjoyed it but every time I've thought about it since then, I always felt like the communist screenwriters in the movie were intended as a punchline. Even if they were depicted semi-sympathetically. They're shown as these bumbling wealthy artists and intellectuals who are ultimately puppets of the undercover soviet gigachad. The message the movie seems to send is that Communism is on the one hand, simply the ideology of America's cold war rival (rather than the ideology of working class emancipation), and on the other hand, the refuge of a bunch of rich goofy nerds who've never had a real working class job. I can see why that serves the humor of a comedy movie, but I've also seen these tropes deployed in an anti-communist way. Not to mention the main character is ultimately a cutthroat fixer for the studio execs. When George Clooney shows back up and starts saying Communist stuff all it takes is a couple of slaps from Eddie and he gives it all up.

For what it's worth I felt similar about "Death of Stalin." On one hand a sincerely funny movie, on the other hand, subtle anti-communism masquerading as even-handed satire.

[–] TankieTanuki@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago

Was a liberal when I first watched it. Upon reviewing it as a communist I was surprised at how accurate the dialogue is, but I also recognized that the communists were portrayed as a bit goofy. I cut out a scene in which the English guy describes a straw man of historical materialism, saying that with it one could "write down the future with just as much confidence as you write down the past" (rather than predicting the broad outlines of history).

I haven't seen Death of Stalin, but I heard they depicted the Red Terror of the great purges continuing into 1953.

nice

[–] MF_COOM@hexbear.net 28 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I don't know how to do stuff like this but it seems arbitrarily hard. Very cool comrade.

PS @TankieTanuki@hexbear.net was it you that used to cut together those awesome trailers for movie nights? Those were so kickass it would be cool to find them again to post them on c/bestofhexbear.

[–] barrbaric@hexbear.net 15 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Pretty sure it was Mabbz, his youtube is here.

[–] TankieTanuki@hexbear.net 9 points 2 years ago

Correct.

JFC these things are so good. It's crazy how much labour and talent go into these little whispers on the Hexbear that get forgotten almost immediately

I realise thiis is the (very good) silly one, but I just wanted to say that I don't know how I never saw a few other ones including the MH370 one. Years of discussion with a former RAF pilot occassionaly drinking friend of mine condensed into a weirdly brilliant banger. Top work.
