Pleb booktubers trying to sound smart trashing classics thread

And you are, I would assume, a fucking old white male!

>Jack Lucy
For white's are the pinnicle of human civalisation - am I wrong? Am I truly - look here; bear with me please; just look at the facts and decide for yourself: subhumans take refuge in the white's home - why? Because the home the white's have built is sturdier, greater, and of a higher value than that of a mud hut constructed of dirt. Is more evidence needed? Why do subhumans desire reasoning to tell if one thing is true or not? Is not the white's word infallible? Is not His reasoning pure? The pure race is one who's skin is white for the skin is a sign of God's chosen one. Just look throughout history - the isrealites, the greeks, the romans, the egyptians - anything good has been white. Purely white. Nothing good is black. For what does the word "black" share with bad? The letter "B"

It's good that he's taking the take the time to read the classics, and although I don't agree with him, it's always refreshing to hear people just straight up say they were bored by something, it was too long, etc., rather than come up with pseudo-intellectual justifications for why they didn't like it and everyone else is wrong for thinking it's great.

>>9741405
NOOOOOO! BRAINLEEET!! pleb YOU NEED TO GET THE FUCK OUT OF THIS BOARD

>>9741138
That is a fucking useless solution

White people are the destruction of civilization.

>>9741405
>it's always refreshing to hear people just straight up say they were bored by something
How is that refreshing? It's the most used argument and it's simply not real criticism. It's not an interesting thought.

Man it's always entertaining watching a dumbass too stupid to appreciate classic literature snarkily deride a subject that they have no understanding of. I'm sorry that you were unable to appreciate Dickens and that he was too "boring" for you. Maybe you should stick to watching superhero movies and reading comic books: they might be more your speed. Make sure to simultaneously have some scrumptious chocolate milk and cookies to make the experience even more fun! Also, I loved your super intelligent comment about how Dickens should have just been straightforward with his language. Yeah, what an idiot, am I right guys? Why didn't Nabokov just say "I like Lolita" as the opening paragraph, the fucking idiot! Why didn't Joyce just say "A fat guy named Buck Mulligan carried shaving supplies," fucking idiot! Obviously, this smug, scraggly-bearded fatass knows better than the great authors that critics and other authors have been praising for years. Now, you might think that I'm overreacting and that your stupid video was innocent, but what you don't realize is that it is this very arrogant, idiotic, ignorant attitude of yours that is killing the importance of art in society. Art is just trivial fun to these people, a mere substitute for genre trash with the narcissistic twist of being something that they can flaunt on their self-absorbed youtube channels for the sake of seeming "intellectual." Your dismissive attitude towards Dickens, calling the book "boring" is nothing but the superimposition of a consumer mindset onto the sacred realm of art: to you, it is not that you didn't have the capability to appreciate the artistry, it is that you are entitled to be entertained by a product and that this product did not meet your standards. Art isn't just another commodity, you fucking idiot. It's something that must be worked at to understand and to appreciate, and your immediate dismissal of art because of your entitlement to a "fun experience" is doing nothing but depriving you and adding another ignorant voice to the sea of stupidity that is the modern industrial world's view of art. Yes, subjectivity plays a part in artistic taste, but don't even try to play the "all art is subjectively good or bad" card: it is intelligent, educated subjective opinions that are worth listening to, not your idiotic youtube "book reviews." There is such a thing as a dumb opinion, and your opinions are some of the dumbest. Quit making youtube videos, and quit reading and tarnishing the name of great authors. You are too stupid to understand them

>>9741761
lmao fucking btfo

Charles Dickens wasn't a good author. Get over it.
He was a turd, this sportsball cumwad is also a turd. He's probably bullshitting but that doesn't change anything.

>>9741792
yea I watched the great expectations movies and it SUCKED. fuck Charlies dickens. so bad he probably was paid by the word.

>>9741822
No, Dickens is awful because he screams Anglo Sentimentalism. It's piss m8

OP is literally a fucking idiot. Instead of shitting up this board, how about fuck off, read a book and come back when you can start a discussion worthy of merit.

What the hell is he talking about and how is it connected with the thread?

>the audio book is 30 hours, and you know, people, we usually read slower than the audio book

im sorry to post in sucha shitty thread, but how is this even remotely possible?

The few times i listen to audio books i listen to them at 2x speed, and i still listen slower than i read, and im a slow reader (slower than most people here at least)

>>9743214
Fast reader = bad reader.

>>9743222
How so? Unless you're reading so fast that you sacrifice comprehension, a faster reader = a better reader

>>9743226
Fast reading is incompatible with good classic literature.

>>9739495

yeah i listen to that book not v good to be honest

>>9744839
You're not too bright, to be honest.

What makes a classic classic? Like, is Harry Potter classic?

>>9739495

Why is every booktuber a shill for this audiobook company?

I hear this shit fucking everywhere, infuriating

>>9746387
but she is VERY qt

>>9739495
Is the "paid by the word" thing a joke considering Dickens actually was paid by the word? I think he's just a massive troll joking around.

>>9741124
lol. there's a guy on the tv who says bazinga and you made me think of him. : )

I want to make a booktube which is just an old man reviewing heavily homoerotic books while trying really hard to appeal to an adolescent male audience. It'll be called Poderast.

>>9741761
General autism. Plus there's no such thing as "the sacred realm of art". Everything else is spot on.

To mock and deride them and occasionally send them sexually suggestive messages until they shut their channel down.

Sporadic, meaningful uploads on obscure but worthwile novels. I have no need for a 20something retard to tell me that war and peace is a decent book.

>>9741315
How the fuck these people find the guts to REVIEW such masterpieces without any authority. It's disgusting how some people belive that their totally subjective opinions have some value. They just list their impressions (boring, good,funny, bla bla bla...) after reading the novel one single time, without even meditating it. For god's sake she can't even speak english. Also who's watching this shit? Why people waste their time listening to this illiterate fucks when they could read books and articles by important critics and professors?

Each episode is 20-30 minutes long. The scope is focused on one book per episode. There are 3 episodes in a set with a common theme.

The video begins with an introduction of the book, discusses the time period, the author's biography, and then the plot, and warning in a spoiler alert to stop watching if you haven't finished it. After this the actor talks about the rest of the plot, reaction to the book and significant schools of thought, including works by who claim were influenced by the work.

>>9746861
Cute virgin girl who doesn't read YA. I know a lot of girls like this but they don't make videos. Why cute? It's a video format, so the video has to be appealing otherwise I'd just read a review. Why virgin? Stacys are uninteresting, common, and there's a mystical eminence from virgins which permeates visually and auditory. Why girl? I ain't gay.

I only recently got into music so I searched youtube of people talking about their favourite albums.

I guess it's a similar thing except because of these audible company you get these cancerous individuals who aren't knowledgeable about literature posting these pretty videos just for the sake of making money. Disgusting in my opinion.
