Yesterday, I ate McDonald's for both lunch and dinner. So I think it's safe to say I live my life a quarter pounder at a time I guess that's something I have in common with the two movies battling it out today These street racing criminals turned superheroes only have one speed in life fast After nine films have Dom and his team aged like a fine energy drink or have they lost that spark plug that kept this franchise Going it's the fast and the furious versus f9 the fast saga on movie feuds The furious started out with a pretty simple premise Brian O'Connor a young cock sure cop Infiltrates the seedy underbelly of underground street racing to figure out who is behind a string of truck robberies in the process He develops a bromance with one of the best racers in the business Dom and even falls in love with Dom's sister Mia Eventually Brian will join up with Dom's crew and by the seventh film. He'll be riding off into the sunset Comparing the first film to that of the ninth is like comparing a children's coloring book page to that of the Sistine Chapel That might be a bad analogy considering the crowd. I'm talking to It would be like comparing baby shark to Fred Durst masterpiece. Nookie They're so wildly different that if you change the names of the characters, they would be two totally different properties Here's a fast summary of f9.  That was like maybe 20% of the plot, but who cares? We're here to watch people drive fast and on occasion furious. It's about family The first film offers plenty of that while this newest installment is more akin to driving fast and Preposterous, I would actually say it's fast and ludicrous But that would just be confusing because there's an actor named that in these movies call me old-fashioned But I like a story that makes even a fraction of sense So strapping a car to a rocket to destroy a satellite orbiting earth doesn't qualify fast one's gonna take the round Hanging out with the fast and the furious crew is like eating at Olive Garden when you're here your family But which one really feels like that though fast one has Domitello Punky Brewster female muscle T baby.  That was a third-eye blind reference subscribe F9 doesn't only bring back the old favorites, but it even resurrects some and offers some new flavor as well Here they are. There's Mamma Mia the personification of Red Bull live and let he die Luda to fast Tyrese Han of the dead fast in the Furiosa Don's brother Jacob who is never once mentioned in the previous eight films and somehow grows a foot and a half in his mid-20s There's also like 20 other people in this but I think that's enough we can move on listen There's no debating the impressive lineup the 2021 film brings to the road But but these cars have put a lot of miles on over the years. They're looking a little rough That's gonna be another win for the fast and the furious dog. I Feel like the first couple fast and the furious films really really catered to a certain demographic I'd say that audience are bros that like fast cars driven by perpetually sweaty people tearing through the streets to Some hard rock and rap hits things started to beer or drift if you will after the third film Tokyo drift and the franchise went through a bit of a tune-up or a tune-down if you will the simple racing for a cash and respect Angle changed to saving the world over and over again There's plenty of racing goodness in that first film directed by Rob Cohen And if you'll allow me speaking as someone who knows Virtually nothing about cars other than they have four wheels typically and a steering wheel I quite enjoyed me those CG shots of the inner workings of the vehicle the Awful dated slow motion. However was as ugly in 2001 as it is today. There is some really shameless product placement, too I for one cannot stand that disgusting in-your-face marketing that some movies do. Oh God damn, that's good. Nos After watching even five minutes of f9 you'll look back on the original and say Things sure seem quaint here while there is zero street racing to be found The crew is still driving fast. They outrun a militia group through a minefield Pursue evil villains several times across different continents and even travel at high speed in space Nothing makes a lick of sense and physics is a parody of itself Dom slingshots a car across a large chasm cars drive up falling bridges Magnets don't work how they should and in space no one can hear you drift fast in the furious takes the win Oh, sorry. Sorry. I mean the fast in the furious takes the win fast in the furious was the name of the fast in the furious for Sorry for the confusion. This is a great franchise Hey, you can't have the fast without the furious That's that's the proper mix and we're gonna determine which one has more of it Since the first movie is attempting to be a somewhat serious affair with grounded storytelling The furious stuff seems a bit tame in comparison to the transformer ask sequels that'll come down the line We do see guys jump out of one vehicle to another, but it's not done in a cartoonish way F9 features mammoth amounts of logical leaps where guys are effortlessly hopscotching around fast-moving vehicles Sometimes they ride on top of trucks as they clean off the side of a cliff Other times they fall off a car and onto another one that was pushed their way by a friend who was I guess cushioning their fall You can do that with cars, you know, you can just shove them sideways to other people There are some scuffles in the first fast movie as well a few hand-to-hand brawls that lead to some hurt egos and fractured Relationships, let's go ahead and contrast that with the new one We now see Dom sending handfuls of guys to the morgue down in the sewers Dom has achieved the strength of a fully grown group who realizes that the rock is a much bigger star than he is So anger is really fueling that rage Since Dom's whole crew has murdered arguably hundreds of people in the later installments due to their insane hijinks I think I'm gonna have to give this round to F9 those magnet cars alone had to have caused a multitude of deaths That's about as furious as it gets Cars on the table. That's not an expression. I have no idea how this franchise continues to survive and Seemingly has no end in sight Vin Diesel is getting dangerously close to being nothing more than a stone sculpture. The studio can just wheel out to the next movie There's your car sir. The budget and spectacle keep getting pushed harder and harder But the energy appears to be completely exhausted at this point I have an easy winner here and that's the first movie and that's for the simple premise and straightforward Execution the true winner is possibly determined by you if you subscribe to Adam does movies and follow movie feuds I put a poll up every single week and this episode was no different Here's how things shook out F9 the fast saga only received 13% of the votes Making the fast and the furious the winner at 87% Sometimes we disagree but in this case we were on the money. Thanks for watching the episode like the video if you had a good Time I'm Adam and this is more than just reviews. This is movie feuds at this point universal Can you hear me in nightmare?

They're less Snippets from the shows cut down to 60 seconds and more so the day in the life of The after movie theater reactions. I did one with my son Connor recently that got 20,000 views so people seem to like those raw uncut More pure I guess reaction videos that are not as edited up Look for more of those types. I know some people have said adam You need a new you need to do more car side reviews. I really like those. Well, I can only do so many show types I'm really focusing on just the the one format where I talk to the camera in this same studio setting that seems to work well The car side review format is basically going to be what the shorts are now going forward when I see a movie I will react to the movie afterwards So you get a little taste a little teaser to the full review when I get to it I think that's the best of both worlds scenario Social media follow and also spotify I'm on spotify the adam does movies podcast goes out every Monday on apple podcast and spotify at 8 in the morning I will be doing The like live what are they called premieres on youtube the premieres are at 9 p.m That same day so the podcast goes out earlier in the morning For people that don't need to see me and they just want to listen to it But if you want to be more interactive they go out at 9 p.m on youtube And i'm usually in the chat While i'm you know making I guess i'm not making dinner at 9 p.m. I don't know what i'm doing editing or something It's always working That's my life It's my wife now Welcome to middle age.

We don't talk about blade trinity Although I wonder if I watch it now if it's as bad as I remember Probably probably worse There's a new blade that's been in the works for what feels like an eternity And more news comes out. I swear every day on this film What is going on with it? I'm gonna bring up a the most recent article. I saw tech radar. I'm not sure why they're doing Movie information it looks like they focus on chat gpt and iphone 15 But yeah, there's a entertainment section of this website because why not? This is by tom power. So if anything is incorrect We turn to tom power. He's got some answering to do that's a great name tom power Let me take a drink of coke before I dive into this article Marvel studio's blade movie is in serious trouble That's if that's not a catchy tagline. I don't know what is that's a headline and a half With multiple reports suggesting development has stalled two months before filming begins The marvel phase five project which is currently slated to release in theaters november 2023 Was set to enter full production shortly. However Blade is in danger of missing its launch date altogether after director basam tarik Apologize if I butchered that left the superhero flick just two months before shooting was going to start oof in a statement provided by marvel Uh continued shifts in our production schedule was a major reason behind tarik's departure There's a new director. Um mogul mog glee I don't know is still expected to be credited as an executive producer Oh, i'm sorry the mogul mog. I don't know what that I don't know what that is I don't know what any of that means, but I guess he's a producer on it Speaking to thr that must be tech radar Uh marvel thanked tarik for putting in the hard yards It seems that the studio and director have parted on good terms. That's nice to hear He didn't even make the movie Yeah, this happened with edgar right to edgar eventually bailed because studio interference He was frustrated by how long he was taking to do ant-man and edgar right's movie would have been freaking awesome And you can definitely see his vision in that movie still. There's there's lots of little snippets I just think um He was a little too off brand for marvel Uh, let's see what else According to the industry insider jeff snider blade script is not in a good place The ankler reporter has claimed that the movie screenplay is just 90 pages long and contains two lackluster action sequences At this point, how how hard is it to make these superhero movie scripts anymore? Everybody knows you have three major fight scenes beginning a middle and end The beginning starts out with the superhero either a getting his powers or introducing the character for the first time about Said powers that he already has the middle of the movie has the big bad rising to full strength Knocking our hero down a peg.  It is so Simple formulaic. Yes But I mean we're we're looking at a 90 page script with two fight scenes. Come on This is mcu, baby. You got all the money and the resources you need all the green screens at your disposal I don't that's crazy. All right. What else do we got here? permurphy's multiverse Be Bo de mayo who previously credits whose previous credits include netflix's tv adaptation of the witcher Has been drafted in to rewrite the script. I like the witcher season one was really freaking good season two Not as good, but I still enjoyed it I don't have any desire to watch season three knowing that henry cavill's no longer going to be playing the witcher in season four That pisses me off Demayo has also penned scripts for moon night on disney plus gross as well as marvel's forthcoming x-men 97 animated series Okay, so the film should be in good hands if he's involved It's unclear if former scribe stacey osai koofer is still on board with demayo being drafted into spruce up the script Hmm Yeah x-men 97 was put on a little hole as well I believe it was supposed to come out this year and now it's looking like 2024 Additionally big screen leaks and the cos cosmic circus Who are these people claim that blade won't enter full production until january 2023 just 10 months before it's supposed to be released That's not good Yeah, that's really bad Wow, okay. Well, that's that's the news on blade I'm not gonna lie. That's um That's disheartening, but also I like wesley snipes's blade That's just that's what I remember not saying they can't make another version that's better But those hard r-blade movies were freaking great I wouldn't mind. I'm just doing another wesley snipes blade movie Doesn't need to be tied to the mcu Or it kind of can be since we're multi-versing everything Just do like some slight nods to it, but continue with wesley snipes blade. I know he's older But he's got to still be able to kick ass, right wesley snipes is A pretty in shape dude last time I checked and he just has that charisma about him All right, what else do we got for news? ah, yes Someone must have said beetle juice three times because we have a sequel coming out in 2024 Yeah All right, this news is coming from variety Rebecca Rubin May 9th 2023. That's today folks. This is as up to date as you could possibly get Whether or not you say his name three times. Oh, so I have zero creativity. She started out with the same exact joke Beetlejuice is returning to movie theaters next year Warner Brothers has announced that Beetlejuice 2 will be released on the big screen september 6 2024 It opens the same day as marvel's blade What? What is going on? I just randomly picked two topics today and they both They're both like married to one another. What an amazing amazing thing. We're doing right now. Okay, so looks like we have some competition But i'm gonna guess blade doesn't come out In September i'm guessing that blades gonna get pushed so this is like a no This this isn't a story right now not yet Okay, anyway, let's move on it opens on the same day as marvel's blade a comic book adventure starring. Oh, yeah, we know what blade is Let's move on the There's little information available about the follow-up tim burdens 1988 film about a pesky poltergeist But the filmmaker is returning with michael keaton as beetle juice. Did they not see? Oh, yeah, they did, okay Michael keaton is beetle juice and winona rider as lydia. Yes additional cast members include Wednesday star jenna ortega as the daughter of winona riders character As well as justin thorough in a yet to be revealed row. Uh roll can't talk Production is expected commenced in london may 10th. That's tomorrow Brad pitts plan b is producing beetle juice too Interesting I don't know what bread pit. He did he did the ad astra movie or ad astra That was decent. That was a decent movie. I think it kind of bombed at the theaters So i'm not sure what he's made money on for his plan b production studio, but i don't know much about it In the first film a recently deceased married couple played by jenna davis and alec baldwin Oh now they're just gonna tell us what beetle juice one is above because you have to they're doing their job Beetle grew beetle grooves beetle juice grossed 74.7 million at the box office and there's a stage musical now Hmm Oh no, I'm sorry the musicals done. It had a four-year run and was interrupted and ruined by the pandemic So the big takeaway there is jenna ortega hollywood it girl right now Is going to be in the beetle juice sequel. She'll probably have a very meaty role in that Hope you guys are excited. I know i'm not Uh internet guy's back with another powerful $2 super chat. He says 100 chance both sequels are hot garbage Well, I mean they're not Both sequels. I'm not sure what you mean by both the new blade movies. Not a sequel. That's a straight up refresh That's a that's a brand new movie. That's a reboot I think I think that's what you mean $2 super chat me if if i'm right $10 super chat me if i'm wrong What do we got up? What else do we got? Oh the one that I have on the cover of this live stream today A certain fan base is going to be just absolutely creaming about this According to giant freaking robot Which is the website elita battle angel 2 is happening, baby Sequel confirmed I'm not sure it is to be honest. That's why I put I think I put a question mark They're saying it is but If I recall it's in like pre pre production, there's no script or anything There's basically like a thumb sideways, but let's see what this guy says Skyler gibby brown Skyler sck Ylar Sky that might be a girl I don't know if that's a guy or girl. Let me click on the name and see I mean, I would imagine it's a girl Skyler I didn't know a guy in high school named named sky Which is a sweet name for a guy It is it's a woman. Okay. Skyler Skyler gibby brown with the article It's been nearly five years since elita battle angel was released and after years of begging Begging is an understatement if you're on twitter They have been exhausting. It's the same.  I'm not going to get into the logistics of why I can only imagine There's some weird reasons why but Me personally, I enjoyed elita. My family enjoyed the movie. It was fun Cool sci-fi. We're a sucker for sci-fi film some really sweet cg stuff Good performances. You have james Cameron and the wings helping out Anyway, let's let's continue Well, it's really just let's really just start It's been nearly five years since elita battle angel was released and after years of begging The fans are finally getting a sequel to the rosa solazar led sci-fi adventure rosa solazar I think is the actress that plays elita Yeah, that's what led means unless it's a director. That's the actress. Oh the director is uh, robert ready robert rodriguez Let's see in an interview covered by screen geek producer john landau has confirmed that elita battle angel 2 isn't just on its way It's already in the works And that's thanks to avatar ever. It's everyone owes everything to avatar Like we just got like random headphones right here. This is really really decorated up the set for you guys tonight I'm gonna put anything over there, but it's just thrown headphones wired to add insult to injury Anyway, it's kind of funny That the avatar franchise is responsible for elita battle angel 2 officially getting green lit Look at the look at the sco there. I love knowing this stuff. So it's just You would never talk like this or even normally write like this unless you are going for keywords It's kind of funny that the avatar franchise is responsible for elita 2 battle angel 2 officially getting green lit Because avatar 2 is what put the sequel on the back burner in the first place But according to landau there was a certain cycle that had to be followed as creators learned more about creating Six CGI leading characters creators creating in the same sentence. I don't like that creators building Manipulating There's other words you could have used right I think what we learned from avatar is how much more facial nuance and subtlety That we can get into characters that we want to be emotional and emote That are humanoid Emotional and emote What? Let me read this sentence again. I think what we've learned from avatar is how much more facial nuance and subtlety that we can get Into characters that we want to be emotional and emote that are humanoid That's not a scent. That's nothing Landau said that's like the chat chat GP whatever this He went on jet chat gt He went on to explain that the first elita would not have been possible without the first avatar Then the avatar sequel would not have been possible without what the team learned from elita And now avatar the way of the water has paved the way for the creators to pick up where they left off and make battle angel 2 My guess is since avatar 2 made like a billion and a half dollars like a trillion dollars James Cameron's like I'm making elita too I'm letting them make it you can't stop me because I'm I'm a bank at this point. I own disney at this point Uh the way uh, let's see in a way both franchises have been helping each other blah blah blah Okay, for those wondering if the original team would be back for elita battle angel 2 Landau has a response to that question as well Okay, apparently the folks at 20th century studios have been in talks with robert rodriguez who directed the original And rosa salazar who played the titular character and both are on board As far if any other familiar faces will be back Landau did not say He also didn't comment on what the plot of the sequel would be about In fact, it's likely that elita battle angel 2 doesn't even have a solid plot in place yet. Exactly exactly As the project is still in the very early stages of development Still with landau gearing up for a sequel and reeling in original players like salazar and rodriguez things are looking good Are they? I don't think it even made money The film cost 200 million to make And doubled its budget in theaters bringing home a whopping 405 million See, but I thought if a movie costs 200 million You basically have to double that number for it to even start making money because that 200 million doesn't Count like the marketing costs and the theaters cut I don't think this is spinning it in a very positive light. Let me see did a lead-up angel flop The film grossed over 400 and making it rodriguez's grossing film I'm seeing both I'm seeing that it's a flop from some articles articles and some saying it's good Yeah, whatever. I don't know. I guess obviously it's enough for them to To keep going with this trainwreck Let me get back to the article quick They're just explaining what the plot is There's no word yet on if cameron will be pending the script Although likely cameron won't be heavily involved as he's booked out for the next several years to complete avatar That's so sad Meanwhile salazar should be free as a bird to begin production as soon as it's ready As she only has one upcoming project A drama called a million miles away Rodriguez on the other hand has a busy slate with five projects in the works including a new spy kids movie spy kids Armageddon What? There's a news story within a news story. Okay first off That's that should be the bullet point that should be the hammer drop and that's how this whole article ends Okay, skylar Let me tell you something about seo. Let me tell you something about web If you have a bombshell like that that you're gonna put in the article At least freaking link it to something. There is no link to imdb. There's no link to another page on the website What is going on? Let me see if there's any news on this Rodriguez hints at spy kids armageddon's release window the reboot movie features Zachary Levi and Gina Rodriguez What how do you not know about this? It's been over a year since the spy kids reboot was announced by netflix. Oh god It's a netflix movie During a press tour for his new movie hypnotic. Rodriguez talked to collider During the interview the filmmaker review revealed to our own editor. I don't care Let's see As we know production wrapped back in september. So a 2023 release window would certainly be on the horizon I don't know about this movie Even though a fall release window seems promising for spy kids armageddon There's also the possibility that netflix decides to hold the title for december uh-huh Okay Bizarre that's bizarre news Spy kids armageddon Okay, we got something fun now. We got some posters to do. Let's dive into movie posters And I kind of took some time to set this up this livestream assuming the music or the audio I should say works And the camera works and whatever We'll get it. We'll get it where we want it eventually But let's bring up the posters now. I'm gonna scoot over this way a little bit. It's actually nice that I have the mic up here Works out better. I don't have to move things around. Okay. Anyways, boom I didn't want to show that one first. So already things are not where I want them to be and that's odd because I had them all hidden by default Hmm I don't want to start with that one I'd hide hide Hide we're gonna start with the black slate Pretend you didn't see any of those because that's disappointing I used to do a poster breakdown segment on You know, I was just like videos They didn't do particularly great.  But You know, I'm a visual Artist i'm a graphic designer. I'm a web designer for a living and a web developer not that that's as relevant So I do know things About visual design. I know what I'm talking about here And I think that that's a fun thing to bring to the table once in a while So on these live streams I am going to do some poster breakdown stuff as a happy middle ground for people that want me to do them But don't see those videos showing up. They're now a exclusive live stream feature And the live streams are always available via that live tab on youtube Let's talk Fast and the Furious 10 it comes out in two weeks Fast and the Furious 9 was a disaster hated it I don't actually know anyone that likes Fast and the Furious 9 I really don't I know people that like I like some of them.  Anyway, let's get to the posters. I don't think Fast 10 is going to be good either Maybe the poster will change my mind Here we have the big group shot um This is This is a disaster It's just a photoshop collage These are things that legitimately Kids in high school can do pretty easily What we are looking at here folks is a photoshop Uh file from hell lots of different layered elements sprinkled throughout we have 14 floating heads on this poster 14 floating heads On the upper half above the folding line of this poster Vin Diesel Dom Loretto or whatever the hell his name is Dominic Fully front and center people just ensconced. He's ensconced in people Lettie's in there somewhere you have You have Aquaman on the right And the big thing they're going for here is the X. They're all framed in the X But look how lazy they are with this.  It's black on the corners They couldn't do anything creative with that at least in the bottom portion They use the mountaintop to make the bottom of the X where there's that cross in the middle I noticed one of the big takeaways from the the new Fast and the Furious 10 these posters there's a cross in them so Is it because the X and then the cross is it because he's a man of faith? Is that gonna have a bigger impact in the movie storyline?   It's the only way this is happening And it would be a fast and furious way to die. I'll give it that Bottom half could really be from any of the Fast and the Furious movies, but ironically Reminds me of only the first Two or three of them where they actually did street racing I think in the trailer they showed a small street racing section I'm guessing it's going to be a very very minimal part of this movie the street racing They're trying to tie it together though You have the beginnings at the bottom of the poster you have what hopefully are the remains of what's left of this dying Husk of a franchise which continues to make a stupid amount of money Yeah, very minimal effort on this poster some of the bottom characters you can tell these were all just character Shots from other things. They took them from different, you know, whatever pieces of art They had they probably had them all do a day of photo shoot and they use them for different promotional pieces The bottom half of these characters though, they just did a classic fade It's a very easy It's a very easy thing to do in photoshop or illustrator You just have an image mask over the top And you just fade the image down to zero opacity. So it just does a nice little transition into the clouds It's a it's a pretty lazy tactic and it's clearly One of the tactics you use when the studio doesn't give a shit about movie posters And you just have to throw something together for the movie poster Uh, I see a super chat coming in from internet guy two dollars fast in the furious equals Kind of movie you watch on a plane Yeah Yeah, I don't disagree with that Let's go to the next poster Boom And I will say right under the gates. This one's not near as bad Take a drink here Let's ride Let's ride remember the trailer for this new one. It's let's ride over and over The end of the road begins That's troubling Are there more is there more coming out after fast 10? Is this a double feature? Is this like into the spider-verse across the spider-verse part one and part two Is fast 10 leading into 11? Because when I when I read the end of the road begins That that's worrisome Is this even from fast 10 or is this a fast nine poster they repurposed? I feel like this was a fast nine poster, but these movies are all melting together I can't keep heads or tails of any of it If it is a fast 10 poster, I see the 10 obviously at the bottom But anybody can throw that on any poster ever I could throw that on a super mario brothers poster There's the cross though. So that makes me think that there's maybe a tie in here Dom has his cross wrapped around his hand his knuckles are tight. He's he's in I don't know. Maybe he's on the toilet. Maybe he's actually praying for someone The ghost of paul walker to come back and put some energy and life and spirit into these movies again That's what I'm thinking As this poster stands though Is it exciting?  This is a very serious poster for serious fans Not something i'm interested in but as far as you know, the render goes It's a solid poster as far as a photo is concerned You have some night. You have nice light hitting Vin diesel on the side which gives a little bit of the you know, obviously a side profile You have a nice contrast on the left side of his face putting him in the shadows giving him that That stoic look a look of a man apart Which I think is another movie he's in a man apart pretty bad movie Yeah, it's a nice photo really at the end of the day The fast x photo though is a big contrast here for me because it is lit up like it's a club Fast x you got the x is really extreme. It's got a bunch of lights on it That makes me think fun Exciting high octane energy, but then you contrast it with the photo and it doesn't mesh If anything, they should have just made that a solid white color and knock out the fast So that's just an outline or the fastest in white and you just trace the x white and leave it all black inside And fade it have it very light on the poster Because it just doesn't work with the font and everything it goes against this entire look and feel Let's move on. All right Uh So these are character posters. I I grabbed two of them. You have jason statham I don't know if he's hobbs or shah one of them And brie larson who's a new character. I don't know who she is.  They're just so They're just so silly, but I don't take I don't put much stock into character posters They're just there to get people excited to see their heroes a lot of times. They're thrown together last second Look at his look at the hands on these. They're clearly not their hands. They're just If they are they're really bizarre They're really bizarrely put on there. I don't even know how she's holding the steering wheel like this. It's Looks uncomfortable I know that she's back further But still she's putting it in the what is that 12 point position really locking it in. She's a safe driver Got some green silhouette behind her It it comes off the hand a little bit on the side and the steering wheel which ties it in but why Why green why what does that mean? What is that telling me? And then there's a different green blue more of a blue over here. It's really hitting the side of his face hard And then there's another really strong light source coming in from the other side of the window So he's really getting hit by two Up like contrasting colors. Is there a nuclear explosion happening them outside that window? That's causing that greenish color. What is going on? Is it a radiation spill and why is it regular light coming off the other side? Is it just really bright day outside? He's driving away from a toxic landfill It's it's just kind of puzzling to me what i'm supposed to get from this poster outside of Okay, it's jason statham and brie larson This one's really bad. The hand just does not look good here She probably has small hands a very well could be her hand, but it looks photoshopped to hell and back everything about this looks unnatural Everything about this is awful really And that's it. That's the that's the poster breakdown for the fast 10. That's all they had. They only had the two posters There was a foreign poster but there really was nothing exciting to say about it So i'm just kind of leaving it off leaving it out of here Hope you enjoyed the more Freestyle approach to breaking down the posters. This will just be this will just live here in the live I could maybe cut it up and put it into an episode, but I don't think so I think I think it's nice to have these One-on-one conversations and let it sit There's enough to edit already. I have a lot to edit which we should go into next That'll be kind of the wind down if you have any questions and you'd like to throw a super chat in there I would appreciate it. So get super chats out now so that by the time i'm done rambling I can look and say okay. We got questions Let's go.  Okay movies that I have coming up upcoming videos I have a patreon request that's coming out. I already filmed it. It's about a movie called I can only imagine it's based on the story of a uh Christian rock singer named Bart His upbringing the sadness that he went through the trials and tribulations. It's a it's a very feel-goodery story It's uh, definitely religious heavy but um Yeah, I I went in I went in thinking I was gonna roll my eyes really hard And that's not quite the impression I got when I was done with it I'll just leave it there leave a little tease for it came out in 2018 I'll leave it there the review will be out in a couple days Guardians of the galaxy 3 I actually did a spoiler review on that several days back And I just have not had time to edit it yet. I know I'm kind of missing the boat But really nothing comes into theaters this week outside of a ben aflick movie which I've liked all of his movies. So I would like to get to see it I'm just not sure I will be able to uh on thursday or friday I think my family and I have plans to to go do some fun stuff So we'll see how things shake out. I'd like to get to it and review it But I don't know if I'll have time, but there is a Guardians of the galaxy 3 spoiler review coming out soon Uh, what else do I have that I filmed the podcast will be on monday Uh, I think that's it right now I was gonna go over one other thing That was really funny The um, I put out a video earlier today, which is doing decently well on the little mermaid live action movie early reviews These are things I've been doing a couple times in the past I'm trying to do them more because I don't get early access to movies like a lot of critics do For one, I just don't know who to contact Two, I live in South Carolina now There's like no theaters by me and I don't think they do any live premieres Those are more for like texas and and uh california and new york and bigger states south carolina doesn't get shit I'm lucky I get to see movies here at all really move to a Non-ideal state for movie stuff really really didn't think that went through It was all for the weather in the ocean though regardless The um That the idea is to piggyback off of other critics that do get early access So basically I just react to the rotten tomato score If I think the movie critic is being fair or just even though I haven't seen the movie It's more or less just a guess or a feel that I get from their review and then just doing a little commentary on it It's all for fun in games Anyway, little mermaid comes out the reviews and this is definitely one of those films kind of like uh captain marvel kind of like black adam kind of like uh, I mean pretty much every high profile movie There's always a like a little Bump of reviews that go up by these critics on twitter that you've never even heard of before or at least I haven't for the most part Who praised the movie up and down? Give like a tame little critique To make it look like they're not completely bias or they're trying to keep their presser from disney It's just so disingenuous. And so I read these these off and I'm getting hounded now by people in the youtube comments And occasionally a tweet will come at me saying that I am Obviously, you know, obviously I'm racist and uh, I'm biased and I just don't like I don't like uh, disney or whatever they want to paint me as and I understand that there's a there is A preconceived notion, right?  I guess you like to hear people rant.  It was like, oh, it's so good.  Just why Disney owns the cartoon classics and they're just taking them and repurposing them I got in a little bit of a debate with someone in the comments and they said, uh You know video games do this and no one gives a crap about that. Well, they actually do video games. Yes do this a lot And sometimes there's pushback because it's un Needed it's undeserved. It's unjust and a lot of times It's like cool Because video games in just a few years jump dramatically in quality plus it's still It's still in the same vein as the original typically so a resident evil gets made Based on the original, you know from what 10 15 years ago It gets a giant upgrade in the graphics department Typically they clean up the voice work Keep it the same the spirit of the original still there The controls are often the same maybe tweaked a little bit to be more modernized But for the most part everything is still how you remember it just looks prettier With these live action movies you're going from one medium 2d animation to a completely different medium. Now you're this quasi cg shitfest with live action people You've already separated yourself Fully from what it used to be and now you're in a totally different boat Pun intended for little mermaid And it never works. It always comes off as this just sorry lesser version The reason people like game remakes is almost every single aspect of the game has improved From the voice work to the visuals to the controls To the ability to pause the game or save a game anywhere and not have to go back 20 minutes to an earlier save for you know what i'm saying with the live action movies Usually the soul's gone The the wonderful colorful animation is replaced by this dreary mucky garbage The actors seem half-assing it And then they still take a lot of the same music and shots from the originals and butcher them So Why are we celebrating this?  This was the other part of it that I thought was hilarious. Someone said um Oh yay another cringy review from a middle-aged critic Oh of a kids movie. It was oh yay. I can't wait to hear from another Cringy middle-aged guy on a kids movie Yeah Those are the people that review movies Rod and tomatoes doesn't consist of a kids department to review The little mermaid. I'm sorry You have middle-aged guys and women and older reviewing kids movies because we look at things and say I mean a lot of us at least is what I this is what I try to do when I review a movie Who's the target audience? Is it gonna work for them? I give my personal thoughts what I also say This is how it's gonna be For the little mermaid.  I don't really like the original little mermaid.  She trades her her voice for a pair of legs because she Falls in love with a guy at first sight in the middle of a storm She's a moron This new version. I'm guessing is gonna moderate modernize it make area less of a dipshit cool fine But I don't I don't really care about the story at all. So I will go into this movie With the mindset that all right.  Yeah, they are Because they like this stuff So little mermaid review It looks worse than the classic.  No, it doesn't It makes it a two-hour get out of jail free card for the folks Get their kids out of the house for a little bit. That's all it means Could disney have replaced the little mermaid with literally anything else creatively and Got an applause for me. Yeah, they could have they could have said this is a brand new movie It's it might work. I don't know.  They've always had messages always But now the conversation around them has also become politicized and that's the problem And everybody feeds off of everybody on this These guys get outraged these guys get outraged the company just takes it all in because all news is good news to them Anyway, that's my long ramble on the little mermaid. I think it's funny When people are in the comments, you know calling me whatever they want to call me.  I don't care that Halle Bailey is black. She actually looks like the best part in this shitty movie She's she's a smoke show and she can clearly sing She looks fantastic good for her. I'm sorry that she was put into this You know another live-action Disney remake. Maybe it's good. Maybe it's great My instincts tell me otherwise because I saw the lion king. I saw Beauty and the Beast I saw Aladdin.  Why why screw them up? Why screw with them? You know what would have been awesome? I know there's some super chats coming.  Just clean it up Make those colors pop even more put it in widescreen Add more textures to the scenes add more animation, you know But bump bump that fps up if you need to Really go for broke on these 2d films and bring them into the modern I think that would have been awesome. I don't think many people would have been upset with that Not like they are with these Whatever they're not going to do that that would be too much effort and work All right, let's go to the super chat q&a real quick See what we got matt sclaro What are your water wars movies about would you make them available on patreon matt they are Oh, yeah, so they are available on youtube, but they're probably blocked everywhere because I have so many copyright songs There's there's bon jovi. There's the wall flowers. There's just random music. There's probably five songs in each one ranging from You know hits on the radio to orchestral songs you'd hear in like the matrix reloaded Um, so they are available technically on youtube, but you won't be able to search and find them I guess now that I think about it. Yes matt to answer your question I will absolutely make them available on patreon at patreon.com slash adam does movies and Um for youtube youtube join members That will probably be one. I'll put it Maybe the second tier 499 tier the one dollar tier already gets access to 300 exclusive videos Let's give let's give uh people that are paying the five bucks a month and and over a little bit more Something to wet their beak. So what you're getting matt what you're getting from water wars the anthology four film collection water wars one I'm a villain in it. My brother is the hero water wars two Well, let's let's just break down what these are water wars um These are 45 minute videos shot over the course of two to three days with a little bit of pickup Here and there we made them when we were Right out of high school So you can already assume the quality is great they have been Uh converted and reconverted several times So there is a definite loss of quality on these things. They're in four by three aspect ratio. Am I waiting your appetite yet with all this? I think they're in four by three aspect ratio unless I at some point blew them up to 16 by nine which would have degraded them even more But anyway, the plot is simple My brother jake keep in mind.  It's uh, it's a game that's been in the works for a long time where you have teams of three battling each other for For glory essentially So a bunch of different groups of three players take on another group of three players It's a 3v3 tournament when one teams out another one comes in My team has been on top for many years because i'm cutthroat. I don't give up It's an all-out water war duel. There's water balloons getting thrown There's you know hand-to-hand with water guns and essentially it's just When someone is soaking wet and doesn't have the will to go on when they drop to the ground and they're just tagged out They're out once all three people are out the other team wins.  I would love to actually I've I've been wanting to for a very long time Pitch a water wars show to netflix or someone and write an actual solid script That would uh mirror like how things are today keep the spirit of water wars make it something that's family friendly Something that parents and kids can both appreciate because I look around at what's on tv And I don't see any of that at all anywhere anymore Yeah, it shows like the goldbergs that were decent for a couple seasons and I can't even think of anything else lately. The middle was pretty fun for a while, but even those shows They just didn't have the energy that I that I'm looking for But that's water wars water wars two is snow falls. Unfortunately. I live in minnesota So it's winter seven months out of the year. It's miserable We played off of that And then I decided every water wars movie is going to follow one of the seasons So there's four of them a summer a winter a spring and a fall And they all have a pun for the title because that's how I roll There's water wars. There's water wars two snow falls Falls like waterfalls and also because snow falls water wars three cross tides The villain in that is jesse cross And of course cross tides is a term and then the final one at water wars dried waves Because we bring in nerf dry weapons into that one and of course the waves again that one's not as creative But whatever they're they're fun times. There's there's uh, there's a lot to glean from them I think matt so yes, I will get those movies on to patreon on youtube join as well at the five dollar and up tier 499 and up tier whatever it is on youtube. I can't remember Thank you for asking This was a long answer Uh internet guy for a two dollar super chat.

I guess that would be How easy would be on on the internet now? Uh on that note ring the bell ring the notification bell. Thank you. Bubba and we will talk to you soon Take care


Let's talk about Georgia, Georgia's in the news again, and it's in the news again again because of elections, election procedures. And to remind you, Georgia didn't start being in the news about elections in, you know, this last election cycle, but the previous election cycle during the gubernatorial elections in 2018. And Stacey Abrams, who was the Democratic nominee for governor, refused to concede to Governor Brian Kemp despite losing by more than 50,000 votes. She refused to concede, you know. And then she complained about Trump refusing to concede, right? But she refused to, and he only lost by 12,000 votes, but she lost by 50,000 votes. Why? Because she claimed to Kemp when he was secretary of state before he ran for governor. He was secretary of state, had purged hundreds of thousands from the voter rolls, hundreds of thousands of supporters from the voter rolls. So the first cycle was the Democrats complained that the Republicans won because they had rigged the election, because they had rigged the election to make them win.  And yet those same Republicans, you know, Brian Kemp, the governor of Georgia, and the new secretary of state, and the guy responsible for the elections, I think, Spaulding is his name, somehow they forgot how to rig elections when it came to the presidential election, and they allowed the Democrats to rig the elections, right? That's the story we are told. And Trump lost Georgia by 12,000 votes, and complained about it, and the Democrats went up, like, how dare you complain about it, when two years old, previously, they had complained about it. Now, it turns out that Stacey Abrams was wrong, and that President Trump was wrong, and President Trump and all this entourage and the people on here that are claiming election fraud. It just hasn't really been on scale. I'm not saying there hasn't been any election fraud. There's always some election fraud. But there's no evidence, zero evidence, that there was election fraud on the scale that would reverse that election. And again, every court in the land is ruled the same, including the Supreme Court. And I don't want to debate this again. There just wasn't any election fraud. There wasn't any evidence of large-scale election fraud. There's zero evidence of that actually happening. So but it's been going back and forth, right?  And whenever you don't like the results, what do you do? You complain. You complain. And so what have the Republicans done? The Republicans, you know, huge under pressure from their constituency to do something because 60% or something of a Republican still believe that Biden didn't win the election. So they're putting pressure on a lot of state legislatures to pass bills that will fix what they believe are the problems with the election. Now the fact is that the people in charge of writing these laws in Georgia, including the governor, don't actually believe there was a problem during the election, right? And if they, and they've expressed so, and they're the ones actually writing these bills. But they have to, you know, put on a show to their Republican base that they are doing something. So Georgia did a comprehensive kind of new voting laws for the state. And they passed recently, it's Senate Bill 202 that the governor, Governor Kemp, the same governor, Stacey Abrams accused of cheating, and then Trump accused him of not supporting Trump, and therefore allowing the Democrats to cheat. So, you know, cheating all surrounding Governor Kemp, so Governor Kemp signed this new law interval. The Democrats went apoplectic, just apoplectic. President Biden has called these new laws un-American. He said that these new laws are basically, quote, Jim Crow in the 21st century, Jim Crow in the 21st century. So let's just remind ourselves what Jim Crow relates to when it comes to election laws. What did Jim Crow have? So in 1877, at a constitutional convention in Georgia, lawmakers implement a cumulative poll tax, requiring would-be voters to pay a fee before casting a ballot, basically pricing out of the market for voting, all free staves who had no income. In 1907, Georgia governor Hucky Smith signed a bill amending the state constitution to create a literacy test for voting, knowing again that a significant number of Georgian blacks were not literate, right? But what's interesting about the literacy test was anybody who was a descendant from the Confederate or Union soldier, anybody who was an ex-soldier, was exempt, at heirs of the descendants of. So clearly racist, clearly both were targeted at excluding black voters. A year later, in 1908, Georgia's Democratic Party joined other southern states in establishing a white primary that explicitly prohibited black voters from participating. I mean these are the real, I mean some, there are many, many more, of the Jim Crow, the evil Jim Crow laws that are a real embarrassment for this country in terms of its history. It's really horrific to imagine that this country had these laws. And yet the law in Georgia has been the president of the United States, the legally elected president of the United States, which is accusing these laws now, the new laws, the laws that just passed being Jim Crow in the 21st century. I saw that Stacey Abrams, the same Stacey Abrams are still very active obviously in Georgia politics. Two weeks before the law passed, bought the domain, knowing that this would become a democratic talking point, I'm trying to find the domain. I think it was Jim Crow laws 2.0.com, something like that. She bought the domain two weeks before to make this a big issue. Now I am reading about this law primarily from sources that were extremely unfriendly to Trump, because I didn't want like the traditional conservative of Trump people defending these laws. I wanted people who actually thought that Biden won the election. I wanted their view of what this law was about. So according to them, the bill actually expands voting access for most Georgians. It mandates the precincts hold at least 17 days of early voting, including two Saturdays. With Sundays as optional, people, the opponents of this law on the democratic side, the ones who call it Jim Crow, are saying, oh, they're excluding Sundays because I guess blacks tend to vote right after church on Sunday. But they can vote on Saturday, they can vote every other day of the week, 17 days of early voting. Voting booths during this early voting have to be open at least eight hours, but between 7 a.m., they have to operate between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m., eight hours between those two hours. Some states, some states, including deep blue states, I always have to remember the colors of which party is which color, because don't have in-person early voting at all. New Jersey, Delaware, for example, well, no, New Jersey has it before a few of the 17 days, Delaware has none. So Georgia has 70 days. It leaves in place one of Trump's main complaints about voting in Georgia and elsewhere. The absentee ballot, the no-excus absentee ballot, the law leaves that in place. It tweaks it a little bit, it tightens the window to apply for an absentee ballot to just 67 days over two months. You have to complete it online, you now have to complete the application online, or you can do it online, and the application has to be received at least 11 days before in the election to ensure that you get it in time and it gets returned on time. All reasonable. There's nothing crazy about this. It prohibits government agencies from mailing an absentee ballot to voters unsolicited. Again, not crazy. You could argue either way, but not a crazy idea. Jim Crow. I don't see Jim Crow anywhere here. Let's see, let me just copy-paste this thing, all right, done. Let's see, what else? What else? All right, so they've abandoned signature matching. Signature matching is a mess. I mean, you wouldn't want to match my signature. I mean, it's just too hard. It's time-intensive, and it's just difficult to do. Instead, they're going to actually demand some identity. So the absentee ballot, you're going to have to use all these ballots, you're going to have to use a driver's license, a voter identification card, which are free in Georgia, and you can include a photocopy of a utility bill, a bank statement, a gum a check, any one of these things. So they're trying to make it as easy as possible, but they're trying to make sure that you are who you are, which seems very reasonable to me in terms of voting. Again, some states don't have ID checks. Some states do. But again, Jim Crow. You could argue either way, maybe, although I think IDs make complete sense. But Jim Crow, this is nutty. It allows, for the first time in Georgia, election workers to begin processing absentee ballots two weeks before an election to avoid reporting delays like we saw in this last election, and requires them to announce the total number of ballot cast in-person absentee early and provisional by 10 p.m. on election night, so that you have a lot more visibility into the process. And as soon as the polls close, we can get the results of the absentee votes because those would be counted like we did in Florida. You remember, we got all the absentee votes. So it looked like early on in the night, Florida was going to go to Biden. And then all the in-person votes came in and it flipped to Trump. In Georgia, it was the opposite. Because they got the in-person votes first, it went Trump first. And then as the absentee coming in, it flipped back to Biden. There was nothing unusual about that. It was just a matter of what order they were counting the votes. So here they're putting in rational means by which to count the votes to make it so that we get a smoother reporting of the votes. They don't allow you to give out food or drink. One hundred and fifty foot from from polling place or 25 feet from voters standing in line to vote, Democrats are freaking out over this because they say it this will discourage people standing in line to vote because they'll be dehydrated or whatever. And again, Jim Crow, these people are not completely nuts. And this is this is the president of the United States making this argument. Now, it's true that early on in the drafting process of this, there were some pretty wacky ideas presented by some Georgia senators. They were trying to appease their base and they threw out their all kinds of stuff to really suppress the vote. But none of those none of those passed, none of those are passed part of the bill. Oh, yeah. So the the the the URL is Jim Crow, the number two dot com. She secured that two weeks before. And what's interesting about defense of this bill is that if you remember, I don't know if you guys remember this guy Stirling, who was this election official, the Republican, who's life was being threatened, being harassed by the Trump people and really went out, if you remember, went out, I think in the Senate steps of the of the Georgia Senate and condemned the Trump Trump people for what they were doing and said the election was fair. And there was there are no issues. And what was going on was was was horrific and completely unjustified. And he's come out. Remember, this is a guy who is very anti Trump in that context. He's come out and said. This is racist. Look, I'm quoting, look, Democrats have found a wonderful fundraising and turn out model based on one particular thing. Voter suppression, voter suppression, racist voter suppression. And it works. It works in Georgia in 2020. And it's part of the rationale also behind HR one. That's the bill going through Congress right now. He says, this is not a bill. I think is the best bill in the whole world, which bill is. He says, you know, a lot of this is about pure politics and payback and all kinds of stuff. But he says it's not a quote, 2.0. Some of the provisions of the bill, by the way, target. This is Republicans getting back at you. Remember the the Secretary of State, Brad Raph Asperger, who who stood up to Trump? Well, he's dead. I mean, he's finished in Republican politics and the bill demotes him, demotes the Secretary of State position significantly. So that's just Republicans getting back at each other. And that's why he's saying it's not ideal. Anyway, the thing is, it's not just the president of the United States and Democratic officials. Corporate America has flipped out. Coca-Cola, which is headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, says that it does not support this legislation as it makes it harder for people to vote, not easier. Not clear that that's true at all. The chief executive of Delta Airlines wrote that he, quote, needs to make it crystal clear that the final bill is unacceptable and does not match Delta's values. Biden has encouraged the Major League Baseball not to hold its annual All-Star Game in Atlanta this this summer. Quote, this is Jim Crow on steroids. What they're doing in Georgia. Stirling writes, I think it is morally reprehensible. I mean, he's quoted saying this. I think it's morally reprehensible and disgusting that he's perpetuating economic blackmail over a lie. So there you have it. I, you know, I'm not an election expert. I don't know if this is the best election bill possible. But from everything I have read about it, from a number of sources, a source in the Washington Post, sources at the dispatch from which I was reading, I think the dispatch is pretty good on these kind of things. This bill is not a bad bill, and it's not a bill that justifies this this insanity. What we need today, what I call the new intellectual would be any man or woman who is willing to think, meaning any man or woman who knows that man's life must be guided by reason, by the intellect, not by feelings, wishes, wins or mystic revelations. Any man or woman who values his life and who does not want to give in to today's cult of despair, cynicism and impotence and does not intend to give up the world to the dark ages and to the role of the collectivist brought.

Praise the Lord, Shalom. Welcome everyone to class. Thank you, Jeffina, John Paul, and Zalutoli for joining class this morning. Also, welcome to Divya. We'll begin our class this morning. Can I ask Divya, can you lead us in prayer please? Sure ma'am. Thank you father. Thank you a lot for this opportunity that you've given us once again a lot to come together to learn about how to instill Lord, your grace, your truth, Lord, into young minds, into young children. Father, Lord, we thank you father for giving us these insights, these pointers for the Lord that can be used in children's ministry. Father, we pray for Pasaselina, Lord, you equip her father to deliver Lord, these father pointers to us, Lord, in a way, father, that is pleasing to you. Father, that is most effective to even for us, Father, Lord, that we can apply them. Lord, I pray for each and every student. Lord, who is present. Lord, as well as those who are coming, we pray, Father, that you help each one of us to understand Father, Lord, to apply Father, what we are learning. Father, we pray, Father, that you watch over us, Lord, throughout this session. Guide us, Lord, with your Holy Spirit. Father, pray in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, Amen. Amen. Thank you, Divya. So last week we finished looking at the developmental needs of children in various ages and we looked last week specifically at pre-teens and teenagers. In today's class, we will look at how we can teach children using their different learning styles, using their various senses. So, what are the five senses that we have, all of us? What are the five senses? What are the five senses? You can type it in the chat or you can unmute your mics and speak. Okay, hearing. What else? Four more. Ma'am, eyes here. Sight or seeing. Okay, sight, seeing, smell, touch. Okay, so hearing, seeing, smell and touch. Yes. Thank you. So, our five senses are basically primary means by which information enters the brain. Okay, so for all of us, through our five senses, how we interact, engage with our environment, with people, with the world, through that, through our senses, information enters our brain. The most basic technique for effective teaching is using these teaching methods that incorporate all the five senses. So, when you're teaching, when you incorporate all the five senses in your teaching, there's effective learning that happens. Now, why are we saying we need to use all five senses? Why can't we just use one or two senses? Any thoughts? Why am I saying we need to incorporate all five senses? Why am I not saying incorporate one or two? Sorry. Yes, to have an, if it is to have holistic education, because people understand from three different senses over three different levels. So, when we do that, we are likely to have a complete education for an individual. Okay. To have a holistic approach, holistic learning experience. Yes. What else? Why should we include all five senses in our teaching? To take care of individual differences, because some are visual, some are audio, some are static, among others. Yes. Thank you so much, Lubega, because not all of us learn through just one sense. We have multiple senses that we can learn, like for some of you, you're quick at learning by just hearing. Some of you have to have hearing and seeing, some of you seeing and doing, some of you seeing and smell or hearing and touch. So, we have multiple ways that each one of us are so uniquely wired, created, each of us are so different. So, we have different ways in which information gets better into our brains. It's not just through hearing for every one of us or just through seeing, but through multiple ways. Okay. So, it's important that we incorporate all five senses. So, use as many of the five senses as you can to get the most out of the lesson or the teaching activity. Okay. So, use as many as you can. Think of different ways. If you can use all five, it's great. But sometimes when we are teaching children or teens, we can't use all the five senses. It doesn't matter, but use most of them. Jaffina, it's gone. Okay. So, when learning activities appeal to two or more senses, more learning happens. So, what do I mean by this? When learning activities appeal to two or more senses, more learning happens. What do I mean by this? It means you can have more kids on board and more retainers on board in an individual. Okay. Thank you, Lubega. What do I mean when I say that learning activities that appeal to two or more senses, when you use two or more senses for your learning techniques, then more learning happens. What do I mean by that? They tend to retain it more. Okay. They tend to retain it more. They tend to grasp it more. Why am I saying we need to use two or more senses? Then learning happens. So, usually when we see in children's church, I know it might not be the same in the American countries or European countries, but here in India, we just basically are speaking. Now, we are trying to use power points like this, what we are presenting in class. So, we present what we are teaching the learning content through power points, stories through power points, show videos. We also use flannel board with flannel pictures, or we can use just pick black cards with pictures. But usually, if you see in most Sunday schools and children's church here in India, it's just talking. Children are only hearing. They're not seeing. But what if children are hearing, seeing, doing when you do an object lesson, when you do an activity, when you do a game, when you have an attention getter, or when you're giving them objects, they can touch or smell. Then more learning happens. So, what I'm saying is don't just use, when you're teaching to children, just don't use, just don't speak to them, or use the hearing sense, but also use two or more senses that would help making the learning more efficient and enjoyable, and also which will help them retain information in their rates. Also, when you use multiple senses, you reduce boredom. And when you reduce boredom, you know what happens with children, right? You reduce behavioral problems. So, if you see children are bored, it's basically because you're talking to them.  So, they know how to use it. They touch it, you know, they press it, and they're learning from a very young age by seeing things, whether it's on screen, the TV is sometimes, you know, in most homes it's running, and parents to keep their young ones engaged, they put on the TV, they either put on some Bible stories, videos and Bible stories, or songs, you know, gospel songs, or it's just, you know, something is happening on the TV and so children at a very young age are connected with media, you know. So, when they grow up and when they come to gray, when they enter into children's church and you're just talking to them, that's when you can't, they are just, they can't just sit still because even in schools nowadays they have multimedia, they have PowerPoint presentations, they're using all of these tools, and so we need to step up as children's church ministers. We need to step up our children's church ministry in our churches and use all of this because, you know, children, every time they're bombarded by information through media, and we know in media every second there's a change in color, there's change in visuals, there's change in the slides, you know, whether it's movies or whether it's cartoons, there's a new character coming in every other second, so we also need to make our classes engaging, others children will not want to come to children's church, okay, and they will not, they will not retain the information that you are teaching them, and so when, you know, you reduce both them, you bore them, you also reduce behavioral problems, that's when they're not talking to each other, that's when they're not running around, they're fidgeting, you know, they're irritating you and thinking, why can't these children listen to me, okay, so it's important that you engage and use activities that engage their multiple senses, okay, smelling and tasting, you know, these senses smell and taste is something that we hardly ever use, you know, but it's something that can be most effective, because some children learn to smell and taste, and when you use them, you know, which is least used, but when you use them, they can be most effective ways of learning, learning activities that allow children to say or do something results in the greatest ability to recall and also demonstrate what they have learned, so when you use all of these, you know, senses, you know, learning activities help children, allow them to do some, you know, to learn, to gather information, and also it results in, you know, recalling what you have taught them later on, recalling later on in life as well, and also it'll help them to put into practice or demonstrate what they have learned, okay. Did Jesus use the five senses when he was preaching and teaching and talking to people? What do y'all think? Did Jesus use? Sure, sure. Yes, thank you, Lubega, so what are some of the ways Jesus used the five senses? Okay, parables, okay, what else? When we see through most of some of his miracles, he was using, he wasn't only talking, there is, for instance, there is when he was treating sick person and he told him, he touched on his eyes and there he was using almost all the senses. Yes, thank you, Lubega.  Then he says, look at the lilies of the field. Now, why is Jesus showing them the birds, the lilies of the field? Why is he showing them the mountains? Because Jesus knows that, you know, these people are not as privileged as we are today, where we have the Bible in our hands. They need to recall everything that they have taught them. So, you know, even when Jesus is gone, they can look at the lilies of the field, the grass, the mountain, the, you know, the boat, they can look at the birds, and they can recall everything that he has taught them. Even when he was ministering to people, you know, when he sat down at the well and the Somatian woman came to him, he told her, you know, that he would give her living water to satisfy her deep thirst.  And so, he's using the same water that, you know, he asks her for a drink, that she's come to fetch, and then how he ministers to her. Like Lubega said, you know, Jesus touched the eyes of the blind man, case of touch. He also put mud, you know, and we see that the blind man receives sight.  So, we see that Jesus himself, you know, used multi-sensory techniques to teach people, and it must have been very effective, because even after he's gone, you know, they would have looked at the fig tree, and they would have looked at the fish, or they would have looked at, and remember they had to pay their taxes, you know, whatever, so, or the coin, and it's reiterated or recalled, brought to recall everything that Jesus had taught them. Now, researchers indicate that each sense stores the information it receives in different parts of the brain, or different places in the brain. So, when we use a teaching technique, or a teaching strategy, that involves one or more senses, we actually, what we are doing is we're increasing the number of connections that are being made in the brain, and you know, the likelihood is that children would be able to recall the information later on, and you will be amazed how they can recall everything that you have taught them, is because when you use all of these learning styles, or these multiple sense organs, you know, which has created a number of connections in their brain, and that is why they're able to recall information later.  So, there is more neurons connected to each other, there's more neural pathways that are activated in the brain, and this creates strong connections, and you know, the overall network of information just becomes very strong, and you know, memory is a good memory is created in the brain. Also, you know, when you use more than one multiple senses in your teaching strategy, it enhances the memory and you know, helps better recall. So, by engaging in multiple senses, you know, we're actually providing the brain with multiple avenues to encode and to store information. So, in multiple places in the brain, you know, information is encoded, and you know, information is also stored. So, this, you know, increases the likelihood of forming, you know, strong memory traces, and it makes easier to recall information later. The third thing is improved attention and engagement. So, when you use multiple senses, it can basically help capture and maintain the learner's attention. So, because you're using different things, you're giving them things to touch, smell, see, you're enacting things, you know, the way you are narrating the whole narrative using voice modulations, hand gestures, facial gestures, you know, movements, you're getting children involved in the lesson, you have music in the background, and all of those things, it's just going to, you know, get them more excited and it's going to increase their engagement in listening and doing and being part of the class and will reduce boredom and distraction. Okay. Now, even when you use these multiple senses in a teaching method, you're basically catering to different learning styles in children. All of us have different learning styles. Okay. So, all of this can apply to us as well. We have different learning styles and all of these learning styles can be accommodated in our teaching. Okay. So, when that is why I'm saying you need to use one or more senses or use all the five senses because some children learn, you know, better through, you know, different, they have different styles of learning, they receive differently. So, we can, when we accommodate all of these different learning styles, we're basically allowing the learners to access and process the information in ways that is pleasing to them, which is their style, which is their gift, and which aligns with their strength. Okay. So, that is why I'm saying, you know, accommodate all of these senses because when we do that, we're basically accommodating different learning styles and we're allowing learners to access and process the information in ways that aligns with their strength. And the last thing, you know, when we use all these multiple senses, how it creates a strong memory in their brains is because of a deeper understanding. Now, the sensory input, you know, actually provides additional content and richness to the learning experience. So, what content you're teaching them, you know, it just actually enhances the whole thing, it gives it more richness quality and it can help learners make connections with different aspects of the content that you're teaching them. Okay. And also, this can lead to a deeper understanding of the subject matter, especially when we're teaching spiritual truths, you know, we're teaching them concepts, which can be a little abstract, which they can't touch feel sense. But when you're trying to use it, use the senses to explain to them these concepts, we look at some of them, how we can explain to them, you know, that becomes more tangible, that becomes more real for them, and, you know, gets them to have a deeper understanding of the whole truth or the whole concept or the doctrine even that you are teaching them. Okay. So, we look at each of the five senses. Okay. The first one we look at is learning by hearing. So, learning by hearing is basically they are auditory learners. Okay. They learn by listening. So, how can you engage people, you know, people or children with the style of learning? Any thoughts? Okay. Jeffina says singing songs that they can remember. How can you engage auditory learners? We can, as we are speaking to them, they are engaged to asking them questions, they are engaged to some recordings, like you bring in a recording to listen to them and then tell them to explain what they have heard or ask them questions about the recording. All those ones can be ways of hoping them. Yes. Thank you, Lou Bega. Anyone else? How can you engage auditory learners? Okay. Let's begin by when you're narrating a story. Okay. How can you engage them? Okay. Jeffina says being expressive. How do you express? Okay. Voice modulation. Yeah. Intonations, asking questions. Okay. So, making, suppose the story has like animal sounds and such things. Yes. Thank you, Divya. Making animal sounds. You can get the children to make animal sounds, they'll enjoy it, you know.   So, you know, all of this kind of helps children, you know, especially if they're auditory learners to be engaged in your learning.  So, for example, you know, if you're narrating, this is only for a smaller age group, we can't do this for bigger children because they feel that, you know, if you're using it for preteens and teens, they'll think that you're being very silly, you'll have to engage with them in different ways.     You know, so you can bang your feet and, you know, you can make the voice and you can get children to bang the table.  And they would, you know, a children who loved a linguist learners, we look at the eight different styles of learning linguist learners, they would love to speak and, you know, say this and they'll be so excited.  And all of the soldiers, no, they were so scared and, you know, they all were running in one corner.  And why are all of these soldiers looking so scared and panic and running? And why are they all huddling together? And why are they all talking? Why is not anyone fighting? I thought there's going to be a battle, you know, and then you're going to ask, now, who is this young boy who came to the battlefield? So you see the voice modulation, you see how you're moving your gestures, of course, I'm not moving here because I'm still in the chair, but, you know, you can use all of that. And then you can just say, and, you know, you're just looking, you know, so your facial expression is looking at all of the soldiers.  And he's wondering, where this deep voice and who is this person screaming like this? And he's trying to look here and there, you know, so this is how you engage auditory learners.  So how do you think you can engage pre-teens and teens? Auditory learners, how can you engage pre-teens and teens? Giving them reading times. Okay, reading, yes. You can also have, like, you know, for all age groups, you can show videos, you can have film, movies, you can have dramatic readings, you know, you can get them to read in a very dramatic way, you can use puppets, you can also have quiz games, you know, where they'll be very excited. You can have music in the background, you know, musical instruments to enhance the whole story. So maybe for the war scene, you can have, like, you know, battle cry, you know, the trumpet blowing and all of those things, you can use those and you can also for pre-teens and teens, you can engage them by asking them, you know, and, you know, asking them, you know, what do you think David would have done? What do you think when he heard this deep voice, this huge person standing there, you know, with a deep voice, you know, and you can speak with a deep voice because of course men have a deep voice and some of them, and if there's a student in your class who has a deep voice, you can get them to speak and say, who will fight with me and all of those things. So you can engage auditory learners in this way and give them tasks that, you know, will engage them, like dramatic readings they would like, if they're good at singing, you can use them, if they're good at playing musical instruments, you can also use them to do that in the class. Of course, even singing, you know, songs, scripture in songs, you know, these Bible narratives in songs, you can get them to sing and they'll most be most happy to do that. Any questions on how to help auditory learners? The other way to help auditory learners is to, you know, paint the whole picture for them because they love by hearing, so when you get, you and you paint the whole picture, the scene, the scenarios, you know, especially for pre-teens and teens, you know, there was this two mountains, so here were the Philistines, here were the Israelites, and there was a valley there, and there was Goliath standing, you know, so paint the whole picture, paint how the Israelites were so scared, you know, that is something that you can do. Also, I remember, you know, when we were in, I was in grade eight, during the whole Vacation Bible school time, there was this, one of these, this person who was supposed to narrate a very, very familiar story, a narrative from the Bible, and he, I think he knew the back of his mind, these were eight, nine, tenth graders, and if he's going to just narrate that narrative, all of us will shut off, you know, we'll all close our minds will be shut off because we've already had two sessions, this is the final session for the day, and so he, you know, he just, the way he narrated the story, I still remember this, I think it's almost 30 plus years since I've heard the story, you know, but the way he painted it was so beautiful, he spoke of a young boy called Tony, and you know, he told us how Tony would love to spend his summer vacations, to summer vacations, all of us in summer vacation, how Tony loved to spend summer vacation in his grandparents' farm, and he would just wait when his exams would get over so that he would, very next day, he would, you know, run off to his grandparents' farm, and you know, every time when he went to his grandparents' farm, he would admire the fields just beyond the fence of the farm, the open fields, the flowers, and grandma told him there's a beautiful small, you know, river stream that was running, and then he could see the majestic blue mountains way back, you know, in the fields, and he would always want to go there, and his grandma said and promised him that when he was, you know, when he would pass eighth grade, she would take him there, so he knew that, you know, most of us were in eighth grade, so he said, you know, Tony had just finished his eighth grade exams, and he was super excited, he just wanted to run to his grandparents' farm, because grandma had promised that when he finishes eighth grade, he will, she will send him for a small hiking trip near the mountains, and he's been waiting all these years, so when to grandma's house, and the first thing he reminds her is that he's finished his eighth grade, and you know, he had promised that he can go near the foothills of the mountains, and you know, explore the whole fields, and that she would allow him, so she agreed, and he said, I want to do that tomorrow itself, grandma, so grandma, you know, packed a small tiffin for Tony, and early morning he got up, he was very excited, and his grandma gave him some, you know, he gave us a whole lot of instructions what grandma said, and he went, and he was, so he painted a whole picture of the flowers, and the green fields, and you know, the way Tony walked, hey, Jefina, he lost you, he lost the presentation, so you know, look at the green fields, and the flowers, and the birds, and the butterflies, and the cool, you know, he reached the stream, he put his legs in the cool water, and then finally he realized he couldn't spend much time there, he had to go to the foothills of the mountains, and come back, and when he reached the foothills of the mountain, he could see a lot of people going up the mountain, and he was wondering, you know, do any people, do anyone live here, are homes on this mountain, and he was, you know, he was quite surprised, and he never, he, he couldn't recall if grandma had told him that the people were living on this mountain, and he thought, you know, if grandma, if they were there, then grandma would have informed him, he was wondering where all these people are coming from, where are they going on the mountain, and they're so excited, they're all talking up to each other, so he decided to go along with them, and you know, he walked along, and in event, he saw everybody, so many people sitting there in groups, and there was a man sitting on a rock, and he was teaching them, so Tony decided to sit down and listen to him, you know, and then he goes on with the story, and everything, and finally, you know, the tiffin box, and the five loaves, and two fishes, and towards the end of that whole session is when we really realized, oh, he was narrating to us, you know, the whole narrative of the five loaves and the two fishes, but the way he painted it, I can still remember it almost 35 years since I heard that story, I cannot forget that story, and the way he painted it for us, so, you know, it's important when we, when we narrate stories that we do such an, you know, dramatic, not just dramatic way, but the way we also, you know, paint the picture for them with help, auditory, learners, okay? Any questions, any doubts so far, anything that you'd like to ask? Okay, there are no questions, we'll move on to the next style of learning, learning by seeing that is visual learners, okay, no, not visual learners, okay, so how do visual learners learn? What is this style of learning? Yes, Jeffina says by seeing, okay, so these visual learners benefit by looking at something, okay, it can be words, it can be pictures, and so hearing when it's combined by seeing, you know, these learners can receive the information really well, okay, so what can we use for visual learners to make their learning more, you know, learning experience great for them, sorry, okay, PP, a PowerPoint presentations, movies, guessing graphics, images, yeah, yeah, videos, okay, graphics, videos, what else, okay, demonstrations, doing object lessons, having games, activities, yes, what else, puppets, what about puppets, you know, can even use pictures, you can also use panel, I don't know if you know what panel boards and panel pictures are, maybe I'll get it to in my next class, you know, we have, for more stories in the Bible, they have, you know, these pictures which they have created out of cloth, and then you have a board which is like a background where you could, you know, use these pictures and narrate the stories, you can also create your own, you know, PowerPoint presentation with the stories, what I used to do is I used to watch these children videos on various narratives in the Bible, I would just kind of stop it, and then I would just hit on print screen and copy and paste it, the picture on a PowerPoint, on a slide, and then you have this whole, you know, you know, PowerPoint presentation with the whole narrative, so you can use that for stories which we can't get online, but you can create your own, you know, PowerPoint presentations for the narratives that you're using, if you don't have pictures that you can show them, if you don't have, you know, videos, or if you don't have puppets of final graphs. Now you need to be very careful about the videos, because most videos, when I look at them, you know, they are not from good sources, the kind of, there's a change in the story, it's not presented in the right way that's presented in the Bible, or they say things that are not biblically right, so you need to listen to the whole, watch the whole video and listen to the video before you present it to children, and also look at the source that you're taking from. You know, many of these Jehovah Witnesses, they have a lot of content for children's material, so if you click on anything, theirs is actually the first, you know, site that comes on, because they have so much of wealth of resources, but it's not the right site to get into and use their videos and their content, okay.   Also, when you're talking about salvation, how can we go to heaven, you know, we can't go to heaven in a boat, so you can, you know, have a paper boat, you can't go to heaven in a plane, so you can make a plane or a jet, but how can you go to heaven, so you keep changing that paper, you know, in a very creative way, and finally it becomes a cross. How do you go to heaven, you know, you get to heaven through, you know, believing in Jesus and what Jesus has done on the cross for us, because he paid the price for us on the cross.  We'll stop here, we'll go for our break, and then we'll come back and take any questions and move on. Thank you.
