Why haven't I yet seen Blazing Saddles?

Great video! Noticed that I didn't get a credit at the end. I hope my pledges are going through. I'm more concerned about that than really getting any kind of recognition.

Okay. Just making sure that I'm still supporting you for the fantastic content. Seriously, it's hard to find, on the internet, insight on cinema likes yours.

Good stuff as always, but slight editing snafu at ~10:03. Looks like you repeated the "King Kong vs Gozdilla" lower third instead of listing "King Kong Escapes." Had me scratching my head for a moment hearing you say one name while reading something different that I thought I'd already just read shortly before...

I think we all know which of the three X-Men Lindsay is hoping will win :P *coughNightcrawlercough*

Great video, thoroughly enjoyed it :D I particularly liked that you took time to talk about the natives across versions briefly, really helped flesh out the context you were talking in. Plus, interesting. Personally hoping for Magneto to win, but I'm sure no matter which character does you'll make it interesting!

Okay I figured out the borking - thought I'd copied the names down wrong, but turns out I'd just borked and forgot to include one of the cards. Oops! Fixed and reuploading now, thanks for letting me know!

Yay! Great video as always. And what's with future King Kong saving Earth from dinosaurs? Why haven't I heard about such a thing being made? :O Shouldn't next episode be episode 7, though? Unless the mini canon about Mad Max counts too.

Another great video Lindsay. The original Kong was one of my favorite childhood films. And I make no apologies for stating this, but I squealed when you mentioned doing a Godzilla episode in the future. Also thanks for including the Toho Kong films, I was definitely surprised to see them included.

Blip is apparently no longer a thing, and the video is gone now =(

When is this video coming back online? I never got to see it.

Great video. Very glad I'm not the only one skeeved by Peter Jackson's version of the Islanders. RE the oil man - I could imagine maybe a movie producer wanted to capitalize on public anger over the doubling of oil prices in 1974 by making an oil man a villain... and there were a lot of colorful "entrepeneurs" in the 1970s US oil boom (Dallas the show began in 1978) so I kind of could buy it.
