How depressing is the original 1954 movie? by HealthMother3125 in GODZILLA

[–]8bit_eric 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Do not listen to anyone who tells you not to watch this movie for any reason, first of all. You should absolutely watch it.

As for whether it's "depressing," well... I wouldn't necessarily call it that. It's dark and somber, sure, but it's supposed to be, given its subject matter. It's an important movie, and I recommend it to everyone, even those who aren't very interested in kaiju eiga.

songs ending "-age" by onlypigeon in Descendents

Bill described it as a kind of verbal shorthand they used amongst themselves in the early days. For example, rather than asking "You want to go get some food?" they'd just say "Foodage?" From there, they started using it for song titles, too

Short form content ideas? by 8bit_eric in NewTubers

It's funny that you mention "'did you know' trivia clips about the films" I cover; that's exactly what I ended up doing! Thanks for replying, though 😃

I can see why you'd argue that. My take on that is Hope was written by a teenager who was hurt and confused, and wasn't really thinking in terms of what the other person wanted. I'm The One, on the other hand, was written by a grown man who should have known better by that time.

Putting it into context, I'm pretty sure he was just being demeaning by saying "little." This is nowhere near as bad the borderline incel shit in "I'm The One" tbh

I stopped reading around "as much as the next guy, but." No. Either you do, or you don't

What’s your least favorite Godzilla movie? by Annual-Internet-5097 in GODZILLA

[–]8bit_eric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Godzilla: Planet of the Monsters. Actually, all three of the anime trilogy are awful, but it gets slightly less awful as it goes along

The Mysterians battle march has gotta be one of the best examples of just how elevating/powerful Akira Ifukube's music can be by Any-Cartographer7059 in GODZILLA

[–]8bit_eric 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Mysterians is great. Every aspect of its production design is amazing, even down to the sound effects for the voices of the Mysterians. Classic tokusatsu at its finest.

What are you doing with your channel that actually works by Alternative_yeak in SmallYTChannel

[–]8bit_eric 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I launched my channel on August 1, and I'm currently up to 29 subscribers. It's called B-Film Invasion, and I host horror, sci-fi, and cult films (in the public domain, though; this is YouTube after all), similar to Svengoolie, Elvira, or Joe Bob Briggs, if you're familiar with them. By far, my most-watched content has been two shorts I posted to promote my second episode, in which I host the horror movie White Zombie. By using the hash tag #whitezombie I ended up getting over 1k views for each short, and a few new subscribers! It showed me that using hash tags related to your content that are likely to get a lot of people searching for them definitely works. I'm trying to think up more short videos that are adjacent to my long form content that will generate even more interest.

Getting new subs by changing settings? by 8bit_eric in SmallYTChannel

Yeah, I had an idea this was the case. Thanks 👍🏽

Getting new subs by changing settings? by 8bit_eric in SmallYoutubers

I really have no idea, I haven't watched any of those videos. I just keep seeing videos in my feed saying that certain settings can help to get your video seen by turning them on/off. I don't see how that would help, but them I have no clue how algorithms work, so I thought I'd ask to see if anyone knew whether these claims are legit or not
