Sounded like a quote to me (at least partially), so perhaps that is the reason.

2021-05-02 18:59:39 +0000 UTCIt's actually a gender-swapped but otherwise word-for-word recitation of an infamous Star Trek parody fic from the '70s called "The Trekkie's Tale" which has gone down in history for inventing the term "Mary Sue." So it's probably Dom taking a little potshot at Zellaby as written by Wyndham.

2021-05-01 18:47:24 +0000 UTCBrilliant star trek fanfic!
2021-05-01 11:37:30 +0000 UTCI guess I somehow thought you were going to be talking about Children of the Corn. Huh. I've never seen/read either so I guess I just conflated the two in my brain at some point.

2021-05-01 06:40:46 +0000 UTCI must have done so too. I distinctly remember seeing a version of this that had one good cuckoo in it, which is an element the remake used that wasn't in the book or the 1960 movie.

2021-04-30 23:01:29 +0000 UTCI see you needing to say “Uncle Dom” in order to avoid “Daddy Dom”...

2021-04-30 21:29:03 +0000 UTCGood point, though the term has been reclaimed.
2021-04-30 20:13:47 +0000 UTCYes I did enjoy it. Now I'm back to the bottom of the list & my next choice is Planet Of The Apes. (Yes it was a book first.) The Charleston Heston one, of course. 😁
2021-04-30 20:03:03 +0000 UTCI have found that reading past very unfortunate attitudes has changed my experience reading a lot of books
2021-04-30 18:27:22 +0000 UTCHope you enjoyed it even if I was a bit critical

2021-04-30 18:15:20 +0000 UTCIs that in season 1 or 2? I kinda want to rewatch it.

2021-04-30 18:03:45 +0000 UTCI think this story also inspired a episode/ chapter of Mushishi( Anime / manga). The children in there also look indentical and could copy each other skills once one had learned them.
2021-04-30 07:40:27 +0000 UTChuh apparently i did see the 90’s remake at some point, totally forgot about it until you mentioned Mark Hamill as the preacher

2021-04-30 06:01:52 +0000 UTCUm... Think you forgot to put a picture of the film poster in at roughly the 10:33 minute mark. You reference looking at the boy on the poster, but there is no image of it.

2021-04-30 05:43:00 +0000 UTCJust a heads up for future videos— it’s best not to use a slur for an ethnic group that has been marginalized, even if you are quoting the racist who used it in the book.
