I won’t do that this time. I’m more happy having a conversation about movies, and I’m open to doing that anytime. hmu. Instead here’s a FAQ about these videos: Q: How long does it take to make these? A: After doing this many years I’ve mostly got the process down. A few days and nights to download the available trailers. Two (or more) weeks of isolating clips from those trailers. A little less than a week to try to put those clips in a way that makes me feel something when put to choice needle drops (which also take a week or so to cut together). The rest of the week tinkering with it all till I feel like I can stop. Q: What makes you do these? A: I like movies and I edit for a living. I used to watch channels like Matt Shapiro, Gen Ip, Cornelis van Dijkhuizen etc. whose videos were deeply satisfying and reaffirming snapshots of contemporary films. I started because I wanted to try making my own, and now I keep doing it because, like some of you, I like watching it. Q: How many movies do you put in? A: As many releases of note in a calendar year. This one was about ~160? They’ve averaged around that lately. Q: It’s funny you put the Trolls movie next to Oppenheimer! A: Yeah, it’s pretty funny lol. We like to have fun here! Glad you enjoyed! Q: Why’s it so late? A: Shut up. (I procrastinated.)
