A+ youtube video! I feel like this is a dumb question, but what other sources, exercises, etc would you suggest for a writer wanting to get better at, like, everything you do in that video? I feel like I'm just not intelligent when it comes to writing and reading. I slap down whatever seems fun and I'm sure it makes for a bland story full of stupid plot holes and everything you talked about, so how does one get better at dissecting this stuff and...writing/reading intelligently?

Thank you so much!! There’s a tendency to consider analytical people just “smart”, as if the observations they make come naturally to them. But that super isn’t true: being thoughtful and critical about media, like drawing or writing or playing a sport or learning an instrument, is a skill that you pick up by absorbing reference, learning the language of the art form, and then practicing replicating it through your own perspective.

ABSORBING REFERENCE

My two biggest critical inspirations are Lindsay Ellis, a video essayist who covers film and culture, and Film Crit Hulk, a screenwriter and movie critic, and I’ve been consuming their work since I was 15. (I’m 25 now! that’s a wholeass decade.) I've picked up many, may other sources along the way: other video essayists, pop culture commentators, TV critics, spirited roasts of 50 shades of gray, actual “writing craft” books and blog articles, long goodreads reviews of books I thought I had a pretty good grasp of the flaws on, funny booktube reviews, even “anti” posts. I read “how the last season of game of thrones went the fuck off the rails” articles til my eyes bled, not because I cared about game of thrones, but because there was so much good, insightful reporting being done on How And Why A Story Fell Apart.

LEARNING THE LANGUAGE

Not all of this is good or useful. There’s a lot of bad faith or shallow criticism out there. The cinemasins clickbaity style of nitpicking “plot holes” or penalizing a work for the mere presence of tropes without regard for broader artistic intent and cultural context is particularly insidious and should die. The people who think twilight is stupid because it has sparkly vampires are missing the point. A LOT of people critique YA in particular from a place of bitterness or bias or misplaced expectations (and so did I, to some degree, for a long time. I’ve worked really hard to grow out of that, I hope). But the point is to seek out content in this vein-- not what I consumed necessarily (I would not wish that many GOT thinkpieces on anyone), but stuff that interests you. The more of this you mindfully consume and the more perspectives you collect and compare, the more context you’ll have for what’s being discussed and the more you'll naturally start to form your own opinions on it. You will learn, slowly, by osmosis, to pull what strikes a chord with you from the noise.

REPLICATING IT THROUGH YOUR OWN PERSPECTIVE

The cool and fun part is that to some extent, your brain will start doing this on its own. You’ll read a book and you'll just notice more. You’ll call plot twists faster, or be more cognizant of the pacing, or connect dots you might not have otherwise connected. You’ll see the logistic scaffolding in your own work more clearly and you’ll be more aware of choices you’re making subconsciously. You’ll recognize thematic hypocrisy or worldbuilding inconsistencies and have the language to name them.

And you’ll also have the tools to explore your less clear-cut, more emotional reactions to art. And this is the most important but “hardest” part of this: sitting with vague feelings and unformed thoughts trying to suss out what’s at the heart of them and why, using your hard-won critical “training” and your contextual knowledge.

I like to frame them as questions:

Why did the end of [book] feel disjointed? Why didn’t I connect with the main character in [book]? What really resonated with me about the plot of [book]? Why does [character] appeal to me more than [other character]? Why does [book]’s use of [theme] make me uncomfortable?

Sometimes it comes down to just preference or subjective taste, and that’s fine and good to know. But more often than not, you’re reacting to something concrete that can be identified:

The ending of HOUSE OF SALT AND SORROWS feels disjointed because it comes out of nowhere and has nothing to do with our heroine’s efforts in the larger story. I didn’t connect with the main character in HEARTLESS because within the context of the worldbuilding, her choices didn’t make sense. What really resonated with me about the plot of UPROOTED is its thematic coherency. The Darkling appeals to me more than Mal because the villain romance power fantasy aspect of the series is better fleshed out and ultimately more rewarding to read than the love story of two flawed teenagers. ACOWAR’s use of trauma and recovery makes me uncomfortable because it ceases to be a sincere element of anyone’s arc or characterization and becomes yet another tool to make Rhys look like the best and coolest and wokest fae boyfriend.

Pulled from an old Captain Awkward article, this is something I have in a sticky note on my desktop as sort of a criticism guide:

One of the things we try to do is to push past “I liked it”/”I didn’t like it” as reactions to work. What is it? What is it trying to be? Is it good at being that thing? Was that a good thing to try to be in the first place? Did the artist have a specific agenda? How did it play with audiences at the time? Does it play the same way now? What stereotypes does it reinforce/undermine?

Even if it’s only for your own personal growth rather than intended for an audience, I recommend putting burgeoning critical thoughts or questions you’re trying to “work through” down in writing somewhere: goodreads reviews! tweets! blog posts! spamming your group chat! Even just a private word document. The synthesis of thoughts into written content forces you to identify and choose a specific articulation of your idea(s). If it’s in a pubic or semipublic forum, you’ll also be able to see which of your ideas resonate with other people, and that can (isn’t always, but CAN) be useful information as far as having an external barometer for when you’re onto something.

And then..... you do that a bunch of times in different ways for many years, with a lot of different books and movies and games and whatever else. Like any other skill, you will get better the more you do it. (Again: I have been doing this for ten years now, and it still took me three months to write that video script. Forming nuanced, informed opinions and then articulating them coherently is hard.)

As kind of a footnote tip, seek out peers who have the same goals and feelings, and try to connect with them! Lots of my current internet friends found me back when I was posting on my personal blog about problems i had with THE SELECTION or RED QUEEN and we bonded over having similar opinions and being in similar places in our writing/ reading/ careers. These people now beta read my scripts and posts and help me brainstorm or refine ideas. I strongly believe that creatives (and critics) do their best work and grow the most within a network of support and feedback.

But also, in regards to creative writing in particular, i want to be clear that having fun is the most important thing. I absolutely think creators need analytical skills to improve their craft, but without the enjoyment of doing the thing at the core of it, there is no craft at all. If you have to choose between the "smart” thing and the fun thing, choose the fun thing. Tbh, if you’re worried your work is bland, analysis probably isn’t the solution-- figuring out how to have more fun is the solution. And letting yourself lean into the stuff that’s wild and awesome and so incredibly you that it sets you on fire to write is a skill of its own :)

egnaro krowkcolc a

Upon viewing A Clockwork Orange, a few questions arose in my mind. What kind of movie is this? Where is this going? I saw that the description was “dystopian” and sci-fi, and the strangest thing was that for the first time I watched a movie that was dystopian but wasn’t apocalyptic. Society seemed normal, I mean it seems that this dystopian Britain was obsessed with the 60’s erotica art scene, but normal nonetheless. After a few more times of viewing to see if I could “get it” I gave it an ‘A’ rating. This movie struck me at first as an exploitation and college film with a big studio budget, due to the extreme use of nudity, sex, and phallic/clitoral depictions that were nearly unheard of or seen in a big studio movie. But as previously mentioned I do like to give art a chance, even if it isn’t something I necessarily like or enjoy. The cinematography is done quite well with some shots even allowing you to feel like the main character Alexander De Large, such as the shot where he is watching the films as part of his rehabilitation and he starts shouting in horror, the way the camera is angled gives us a sense of disturbing and unease (1:16:34-1:17:23).

The film is directed by the late Stanley Kubrick, a renowned and prolific filmmaker and director who’s other movies include 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968 and Eyes Wide Shut (1999). Kubrick adapted the film from the book of the same name. The book was written by Anthony Burgess in 1962 and satirizes government (both left and right wing) it also depicts teenage gangs and violence and monstrous crimes, some of which were changed in the movie. Kubrick’s intention for the film was to satirize government as well, we see this in the many scenes where The Minister of the Interior appears and F. Alexander appears for the second time. Although the film does not out and out say it, It is to be perceived that the Minister of the Interior is the authoritarian side of things and a representative of a government that kind of reveals what makes the film “dystopian” (2:08:20-2:13:15), where he hints that F. Alexander (Alex’s captor) was a “writer of subversive literature” and F. Alexander the government (representative of the Minister of the Interior) “Totalitarian” (1:47:36-1:47:59). There’s always something to this movie, something to uncover, and although it is really wacky and out there, you get the feeling about halfway in that there is something more. You nearly feel brilliant when you pick up on a theme, and there’s a different theme to pick up on every time you watch Clockwork orange. That’s the beauty of it, all the different themes and how they plug into each other, how they play off one another, how they and the movie critique society as a whole. It’s a real thinker’s movie; ripe with analysis and hidden meaning that anyone watching this movie cannot get enough of. The acting in this movie is superb, the actor Malcolm McDowell plays the main character Alexander De Large (Alex), a witty, sociopathic, intelligent youth who delights in classical music (particularly that of Beethoven). The way McDowell plays Alex is so convincing that when he looks at the camera and stares at your eyes, you really feel the piercing above his brow as he stares intently and gravely upon you. His acting really carries the movie as you do follow him and his journey and you really do believe he is a real man. Kubrick as he stated in an interview that his intention and vision for Alex was “Alex is a character who by every logical and rational consideration should be completely unsympathetic, and possibly even abhorrent to the audience,” he continued. “And yet in the same way that Richard III gradually undermines your disapproval of his evil ways, Alex does the same thing and draws the audience into his own vision of life. This is the phenomenon of the story that produces the most enjoyable and surprising artistic illumination in the minds of an audience.” (Far Out staff, “Kubrick Once Explained…” https://faroutmagazine.co.uk/stanley-kubrick-explains-a-clockwork-orange/). And I would agree with this wholly, Alex is the driver of this movie, he was the driver of the book, hence why he is the main character. The audience sees a savage self, a more primal and truer self in Alex as he gallivants on his crime spree(s), it is the fact that he is forced into such rehabilitation that makes us sympathize with what seems to be a man you shouldn’t and couldn’t sympathize. The music is on point and the electronic and despondent rendition of Beethoven’s 9th symphony (played numerous times throughout the film (26:01-28:04, 1:15:41-1:19:29)

youtube

is a nice touch that portrays nostalgic longing for yesteryears softens the harsh reality of his cold world, think Fallout 3 & 4 but instead of bubblegum pop and 50’s rock, its classical music in a harsh “near-future” (60’s near future) Britain. Clockwork Orange takes you down a government-sterilized trip down dark corridors and fluorescent hallways, with hints of fascist and socialist agendas, the portrayal of violence, how it affects the youth, even the subjects of free will and can it be taken away? When you are done watching the movie it all ends in a spectacular fashion, with Alex’s picture being taken with the Minister in hopes of swaying public opinion, all the while the previous 10 minutes you slowly start to understand that the effects of his “reboot” were undone as he imagines himself with a woman with an adoring crowd. It ends with Alex narrating to the audience “I was cured, all right”, an eerie and thought provoking line as the cherry on top of a very experimental, philosophical and strange piece of cinema. My heart really warmed up to this film as it is charming despite it obscene and jarring exterior, deeper within is something all can take with them, whatever that is, is up for you to decide. Good luck deciphering the language the delinquent youth use, as I wouldn’t want to spoil it. Another take on the meaning of this movie wouldn’t be surprising as it is still debated whether or not it deserves an X rating or should even considered a great film, but by its cult following and the Stanley Kubrick, who treasured this movie above all else, it is no less than a masterpiece, and I agree.

Conquest Of The Planet Of The Apes - Review Of The Planet Of The Apes blog

(SPOILER WARNING: The following is an in-depth critical analysis. if you haven’t seen this movie yet, you may want to before reading this review)

If it weren’t for the excellent cliffhanger of the previous movie, I honestly don’t think I would have bothered with this one.

Conquest Of The Planet Of The Apes takes place 20 years after the events of Escape From The Planet Of The Apes. A mysterious plague has wiped out the Earth’s cats and dogs, and now humans have taken apes as pets. Eventually the apes are taught to do domestic tasks, just as Cornelius predicted in the previous movie. Cornelius and Zira’s son Milo (later renamed Caesar by his new human masters), now fully grown, witnesses the mistreatment of his race and decides to lead a violent revolution against their human overlords.

Now I usually open most of my reviews with a brief synopsis of the movie. Just a general outline as to what the film’s premise is. Very rarely does a synopsis delve into the nitty gritty of the film’s themes or subtext. For example a synopsis of the original Planet Of The Apes may describe a human astronaut crash landing onto a planet of intelligent, talking apes, but wouldn’t go into the film’s exploration of how religious fundamentalism can stand in the way of scientific and social progress. A synopsis of Escape From The Planet Of The Apes may describe talking apes from the future crash landing onto present day Earth and trying to assimilate into human society, but probably wouldn’t delve into how the film looks at the paranoid and fickle nature of humanity. No, those you have to extrapolate by watching the film yourself. That’s one of the joys of good storytelling. With Conquest Of The Planet Of The Apes however, that synopsis I just gave you is pretty much all there is to it. Really! There’s nothing else whatsoever! The film’s about Caesar stating a revolution... and that’s basically it.

And holy shit, it’s BORING!

There were problems right out of the gate. Why would humans be using apes as servants? Let’s recap what happened in the previous movie. Cornelius told Hasslein about how apes came into power. Both Hasslein and the committee recognised that Cornelius, Zira and their baby could be what jumpstarts the ape’s evolution and eventual uprising, so they order the baby be killed and Cornelius and Zira to be sterilised. Okay, but... the ape uprising could still happen. That’s how it happened in the original timeline. And it’s not as if Cornelius kept this secret. He was very open about it. Apes come to power when dogs and cats get killed by a plague and humans enslave apes. So why do the humans enslave the apes? After going to all the trouble of trying to change the future in the previous movie, why are they suddenly complicit with how these prophesied future events are unfolding? It just doesn’t make sense.

And then there’s the AWFUL social commentary. Apes are clearly being used as a stand in for black people and how they were enslaved in America’s past, and it’s all so head-thuddingly obvious. We see apes beaten, shot and electrocuted. There’s even a scene where someone uses a flamethrower on them. This ‘future’ society of 1991 is presented as very Orwellian with its surveillance and mind probes (No! Not the mind probe!). All the soldiers and authority figures in the film wear uniforms similar to the Nazis and the Gestapo. This is about as subtle as a brick to the face. They even have a black man in the film who exists solely to sympathise with Caesar and the apes’ plight, citing how his own race were treated in the past as his motivation, just to ram the point home for those people in the audience who are apparently so unbelievably thick that they can’t see what the film is trying to tell us. That racism is bad and that slavery is wrong. Yeah, okay. I can’t imagine there’s anybody who would really disagree with that, so what’s the point of all of this?

The biggest problem by far is the characters. Or I should say the lack of characters. While Roddy McDowall does the best he can, Caesar is an unbelievably dull character. We never really learn anything significant about him and we never get the chance to form an emotional connection with him. When the circus master dies, I felt absolutely nothing because we never really get much of a chance to see their friendship. They’re only onscreen together for a grand total of 15 minutes, most of which has Caesar chained up to a collar and pretending he’s a normal, mute ape. His transition from innocent victim to violent revolutionary feels incredibly jarring as well. We never see him formulate a plan or persuade any apes to join his cause or anything. It’s literally just one jump cut later and, oh, we’re starting a revolution now. Okie dokie! We never get the opportunity to explore what the character is thinking or feeling, we never see him bond with any of his fellow apes and his final monologue at the end has all the power of a damp haddock. He goes off on this violent tirade about how apes will dominate man and they will watch with glee as humanity destroys themselves through nuclear war (Oh great, throw in some unsubtle Cold War jabs too. Might as well), before hilariously taking a complete U turn when his new girlfriend objects to this and starts talking about how apes will rule with compassion and completely contradicting what he just said less than two minutes ago. Apparently the producers thought the original ending was too violent and wanted something to soften it up. They’d have been better off writing a completely new monologue rather than tagging on an extra, contradictory bit at the end. Or better yet, just scrap the movie entirely and make another one. One that focuses on its characters and credits its audience with some intelligence with regards to understanding the film’s social commentary.

Conquest has just the bare bones of a narrative. There’s no depth. No complexity. No character. Just the painfully obvious social commentary that the film will constantly remind you of at every opportunity. They never attempt to explore how the apes feel about their enslavement or how humans feel about their new ape servants. The villain is just a one note, fascist shouty man with none of the complexity of previous antagonists like Zaius and Hasslein. There’s no effort to explore Caesar as a character, the relationships he forms with apes and humans, or the emotions he feels when he’s subjugated and when he eventually overcomes his oppressors. He’s just there to start a revolution, and so he does so. This movie is so paper thin that I’m actually struggling to find things to say about it. Pretty much nothing interesting happens and there’s nothing for me to really analyse or critique.

Conquest Of The Planet Of The Apes is easily the worst film in the franchise so far. I mean Beneath The Planet Of The Apes may have been bad, but at least I was entertained by how bad it was. With Conquest, I was mostly just bored by it. There was no tension in the final fight because anybody with a brain could tell you what was going to happen at the end, and I couldn’t give two shits what happens to Caesar, so I spent most of the time yawning and checking my watch, wishing they would just get on with it.

Conquest is not a movie. It’s a concept. A concept we’ve seen done so many times before and since, and done better. Definitely a low point for the franchise.
