[YMS] Stay tuned after the Quickie to 
hear something about Patreon, guys!
So I just saw "Blue Jasmine" and I 
gotta say, it was pretty fantastic.
A refreshingly great movie near the end of 
a year filled with massive disappointments.
Woody Allen impresses again with his theatrical 
style scripts and well-written characters.
There were a few moments in the 
film that I found to be predictable,
but I never felt cheated as an 
audience member because of it.
It's not really a movie that relies on you to 
be guessing where the characters will end up,
but more so being able to observe them along the way. 
Each of the characters were unique and consistent,
and because of the story it was trying to tell, it provided 
a really good excuse to see some emotional performances.
Most notably by Cate Blanchett, who gives the best 
performance of the film and possibly one of the best all year.
She provides many observable subtleties in her performance and I 
was never really watching the movie thinking of her as an actor.
I was really able to believe that 
she was her character in this movie.
And props to Woody Allen for that too, because his script gave 
a really in-depth and interesting character study to work with.
The rest of the actors on film I 
still saw as the actors themselves,
but they were casted for their roles well enough 
that it didn't seem unnatural in the slightest.
Louis C.K. is playing Louis C.K., Sally Hawkins is playing 
Sally Hawkins and Alec Baldwin is playing Alec Baldwin.
Not literally, of course, but you get my point.
The only real complaints I have about the film are some 
personal subjective issues I have with the editing.
You can tell that the script's written in such a way that the 
characters should be interrupting each other ever so slightly.
The beginning of the next sentence 
overlapping with the end of the previous one.
And you can tell that too, because when two characters 
are in the same shot that's how it's performed.
But there was one scene in particular where 
the two characters were in separate shots,
and the editing provided an uncomfortable amount of room 
between their sentences, making it a little distracting for me.
It seemed really unnatural, but 
thankfully it was only for a short scene.
At a later scene in the film, it seemed like 
a cut was made in-between two quick sentences,
with the first half of it cut out to make it seem 
like that's where the characters started talking.
Again, very minor, but it did take 
me out of the movie for a second.
Despite those technical criticisms, this is so 
far one of the best movies I've seen all year.
If you like watching a really interesting and 
entertaining character piece, then go check it out.
I'm giving this one an eight out of ten.
Hey guys, just a heads up. I wanted to say it's 
a new month, which means new perks for Patreon.
For those of you that don't know 
what Patreon is, click the link below.
Thank you guys very much for your support thus far, helping me do 
this full-time. This literally would not be possible without you,
and by that, I mean the review that I'm working on that will 
be out this month is pretty fucking large and ambitious and...
Right now, I've narrowed down the interview footage to about 
fifty different Youtube videos and five hours worth of interviews,
and so now, I'm editing through those and shortening 
those down to only include the parts that I might use,
and then I can yada yada ya the whole process.
But yeah, I'm putting in a lot of work for 
it and you guys are awesome for helping out,
and the "Death Race 2" notes are the 
perk for this month or September,
so anybody donating through Patreon will 
receive theirs of the end of the month
in just their regular perk section 
or whatever that I can put on there.
And anybody donating through the Paypal link 
below: I will be sending those out via e-mail.
And for the ten dollar Google Hangout 
thing that we did earlier, that was cool.
There will be a new one sometime around the beginning of
October. I'll try to make that date public as soon as possible.
That is around the time where 
Vancouver Film Fest is, so I'll try to confirm,
make sure I have the tickets for 
those, and then plan around that.
Otherwise, just make sure that whatever 
e-mail you're using, whether it be for Patreon
or Paypal would be the e-mail that I would be 
sending the invitation to the Google Hangout for.
Since the full YMS review is not gonna be out 
this week, but it definitely will be out this month,
I'm gonna release a Thoughts On video, just 
to tide you guys over within the next few days.
Anybody donating through Patreon: Make sure to set 
your monthly limits to what you're comfortable with,
and also thank you. Guys, 
this is really cool and awesome.
Anyway, if you're only comfortable donating for 
the full YMS reviews, 'cause those are fucking long,
and are not comfortable with donating for the Thoughts 
On videos, there's a really easy solution to that.
Since I am making one YMS video per month, you can just set
your monthly cap at the exact amount that you're pledging,
and that way, if you technically 
do get charged for a Thoughts On,
you're still getting a YMS video out of it, 
because I'm releasing them monthly at this point.
And that's pretty much it. You guys 
are fantastic and let's keep this going.
All you poor fags, don't worry about it, 
you don't have to donate. It's okay.
Everybody sharing around my videos and stuff like that: 
you are super cool too, and you are helping out as well.
My fan's on. That probably created 
some white noise in the audio. Oops.
