The Future is a Dead Mall is an absolute banger
I'm standing within 400 feet of an elementary school to prove all the haters wrong
i rewatched the wall video the other day and it's just. brutal.
Brad Default Presidential Academy at the University in Delaware
Dead Mall is the only one I’ve seen
it's a time capsule of sorts, but Search for a Flat Earth I think is one of his best
but all of them are great, I've been watching him a loooong while now. I think the Suicide Squad video was (like for many) my first exposure to him and I've been firmly subscribed
In Search of a Flat Earth has his best mic drop line
on a simple, petty level he's extremely good at just dropping a scathing joke in a perfect deadpan
sometimes he does it just by directly presenting the target and letting it speak for itself
the Fury Road reveal in the Wall video,
dead mall and the wall review are two of my fave video essays period
cringe. there's no other word for it.
the wall review one absolutely slaps every single time. just the most methodical ruthless teardown while being completely calm about it, it goes so hard
the ending with hat dan, the dan with a hat on that one is such a vicious read
I lost my mind when Hat Dan came back in Dead Mall
the return of hat dan was SO GOOD
dan olson recently did an xoxo festival talk where he mentioned he never gets to really cut loose or joke with his projects which is insane to me because he's so fucking funny
that talk was rly good for hearing him talk about the process of creating things btw. he hasnt seen tv glow because he says it would make him absolutely seethe with creative envy for example
