Linus is unbelievably wrong about rouge one

Hello all,

     I have just finished watching the most recent VOD of the wan show and I cannot believe Linus's rant about rogue one. As a man who his entire channel is shitty puns about tech he bitches about how Darth Vader, or as I say darth sass master, is out of character when he cracks a pun at director krennic. However by far his worst offence was his comments on the shield close scene. I am going to be quite blunt. Where you Linus Sebastian even watching the same fucking movie the rest of us saw. I have just watch ----- cam record of the scene and Linus is not even close to being at all accurate.

 

-redacted-

   

     Lets count the time from warp in to shield fully close. 1:37:40 to 1:38:53. Just over 1 minute. So you have a hard time believing in the midst of a battle that commanders in space who had to get a hold of someone on the ground who then had to walk over to krennic who had to make a decision under pressure to then get his lackey to walk to his tech guys and tell them to lock down an entire planet plus re contact space guys who are scrabling as a fucking fleet of ships have just warped in to give orders to close a massive shield gate just happened to take more than one minute. 

     Next let's take a quick count of a section of blue squadron on screen at 1:38:23 a I count 7 ships 5 x-wings and 2 U-wing troop transports. After the general gives the orders for more to form up on him they begin to fly through the open gate. Lets count how many more than 4 get through. First one flies through at 1:38:40 and following him on screen we see 13 ships fly through including the 2 troop transports possibly a 3rd its hard to tell at this quality. Quick look at wookiepedia says 8 passengers and at least 3 crew. so that's 24 new boots on the ground in addition to the ~24 we see on screen during the speech before they leave the rebel base. We will use Linus' estimate of 30 rebels + the 24 and we have our 50-60 rebels fighting it out on the surface. 

     But above all lets count the time it takes for the most "egregious" instance of the "bomb defusal" effect Linus has ever seen.1:38:44 the barrier starts to lift, 1:38:51 the shield is free from the barriers. 1:38:52 the shield is fully closed... Need i say anything else. A grand total of 8 seconds with only 1 second of shield swoosh.

Has Linus ever fucked up this badly before? I don't think so.

Leaving his laptop out in the rain?

Breaking three motherboards when trying to build a router?

Stealing that Razer laptop?

Crashing his lambo and then pretending like he just had a Honda all along?

Marrying Yvonne instead of Luke?

Wearing socks and sandals?

 

Those things pale in comparison to how wrong he is about Rogue One!

What is it with people endlessly misspelling Rogue as "Rouge"? I mean, if everybody who did it was actually French, I could understand, but to anybody else, surely a native English word like Rogue must come much more naturally than Rouge...

The point is not that you should or should not like rogue one because that is an opinion. The point of this was to point out facts and how linus is simply wrong about what was going on in the movie. If he simply said" I did not like darth vader in this movie", that is fine but when he starts making up facts to support his opinion he, or anyone who does this, is a liar and needs to be called out.

I do agree with the OP, largely.

 

And in defense of the Score, the composer had FOUR GODDAMN WEEKS to make it. He is a fucking genius for it even being as remotely good as it was, with only 4 weeks to compose, and then have an orchestra learn and play a score to an entire movie.

 

Was it an amazing score? No. In my opinion, it was mixed. Some of the music wasn't the best. But some of it, particularly towards the end, was fucking great.

Damn, 4 weeks to do a movie score? That's a fucking feat in of itself.

I could see someone comparing it to an album, but the large difference here is that a movie score has to be fucking spot on, and written for however many instruments are used there. Albums, especially in the realm of rap (I'm using rap as it's the genre I'm most familiar with, you could probably apply it to anything really), can be produced far faster if you wanted. Samples and/or beats are way easier to mess with than live instruments.

Only things I liked about Rogue One was the laser battles and the Krennic Imperial theme.
