Dr. Strangelove Or: How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The Bomb - Patreon Version

It's hard to notice, but during the mine shaft discussion at the end, you can see Peter Bull(Russian Ambassador) trying very hard not to laugh at Peter Sellers ridiculous antics in the wheelchair.

An historical bit: the joke about Dr. Strangelove being an obvious nazi, but trying to hide it, is from something that happened at the end of WWII. The USSR and US both grabbed up as many nazi scientists as they could. They'd made advances that neither the USSR nor the US had. The deal was basically: "you work for us now". For the US, this was called "Operation Paperclip". The most famous one, for the US anyway, was Werner von Braun. Yeah, the rocket guy. So, one of the dudes most responsible for the US moonlanding was not only a nazi, but also a member of the Allgemeine SS. Not something the US likes to talk about much.

"Dear John" is the name for a letter that a soldier receives from his wife/sweetheart saying she's found someone else and is leaving him while he's in combat.

Not exaclty sure what was said earlier but based on some replies, if its about home alone 2, yes I have to agree that it would be amazing if Dasha communicate to us if she will get to it or even if she can't. Anyway hope everyone has a good day!

Sorry puppers, I think they meant me, I deleted a comment earlier after people came after me for asking dasha to aknowlage some of these issues. Like, a simple "hey can't fix it right now but will later, or I won't fix it im too busy or dont want to" is all it we ask,to let us know so we dont have to sit here gussing and coming to assumptions. That's the critisism. That all some of us are asking. A little transparency on reaction issues for people who take time out of their day to pay and support the work she does. I don't know what is so controversial about this.

I think you may have replied to the wrong person Doce. I have no idea what you mean.

puppers

FWIW - I don’t think they attacked your person; I just think some folks (myself included) are accepting that maybe she is pre-occupied and can’t respond the way you and others want. Maybe she doesn’t want to. Either way, it’s her business and it seems unwise to speculate on it. Things will work out.

Doce

Hoping the same thing and just some acknowledgement on if she has seen the comments so we dont have to keep being annoying lol.

Thats MR. Baldamort

Sorry, I just dislike when people get personal with me, and I have to defend myself from what should just be trivial stuff. So im just going to delete everything since some people hate when there any criticism of Dashas uncuts and people get understandably a little frustrated when there is no communication. How dare I, i guess.

Thats MR. Baldamort

Michael, if Dasha arrives broken, I think we better call 911...

So you're not going to assume she's having a hard time, but you will assume that someone hurt her recently, per your comment on Jingle all the way, and you'll just assume the two full length reactions won't get fixed? We don't know if she's having a hard time right now it's true, but you seem determined to see that she is. Comments like " I'm just going to assume Home Alone 2 won't get fixed or Krampus " and It seems like every single uncut reaction you released in the past two weeks have had problems " are comments designed to make someone feel bad. So even if she isn't now it seems you sure want her to be. Also bringing up the same thing over and over again is harping. Finally I'm glad she didn't listen to your suggestion that she not post anything else until she fixes them or else we wouldn't have gotten the past couple reactions and her you tube community would wonder why they aren't getting anything.

Tony Rossell

Honestly, I am wondering if she is even aware of the issues. There is no indication that she's even read the comments here for quite some time.

Baldamort has a point. Look, the Patreon edit issues don't impact me. I mostly just watch the YouTube edits. Therefore, the issues with the Patreon edits haven't bothered me at all. Having said that, Dasha has people who are sending her payments each month. It is perfectly understandable that those people would expect a little fairness when the product they ordered isn't being delivered. It's not much different than ordering something on Amazon and it arriving broken. You'd raise that issue with Amazon. I was one of the first people to suggest patience and to give Dasha some extra time. She may have some things going on that are impacting her motivation and time. That's 100% understandable. BUT... She SHOULD at least say so. Her Patrons have largely been faithful and understanding. If she addressed the issue and told the Patrons what was going on, I am sure she would get a lot of support. It's the cold shoulder that is bothering Patrons. It sends the wrong message. She can do what she wants. I just hope that she does what's right and at least communicates to the people who have been supporting her. Give an update. Otherwise, I fear she is sabotaging her own Channel. This is not meant to be harsh. As I said, this issue hasn't impacted me much at all. I'm primarily a YouTube Edit viewer, and I only signed on as a Patron because I thought Dasha seemed very endearing and I just wanted to help her out. I never really wanted anything in return as I was enjoying the stuff thrown on YouTube for free. I am only saying something because I think what Mr. Baldamort is saying is fair. Its very fair for him to ask for answers when none have been offered.

Didn't realize the fluoride conspiracy was that old.

Brian's Dog

I'd watch the hell out of that too😂

Thats MR. Baldamort

Hey, cut her some slack. She's spending a lot of time working on her new animated cartoon, Li'l Dasha (oh man, I'm joking, but I would watch the hell out of that! Little Dasha's adventures in Russia; are you kidding me? F-U, Disney Channel 😉

Troy Hickman

Dasha, can we get a fix for Home Alone 2 please? It's only 3 minutes long. The "uncut Patreon" version, unless you just didnt like it very much.

puppers

Thank you, Dasha. Your reaction is EXACTLY how the audience was supposed to feel when watching this very dark comedy for the first time. The nightmare scenario depicted is so insane that my reaction would be like that of RAF Group Captain Mandrake, who at first can barely grasp what is happening even as he is closest to the person responsible. Peter Sellers was brilliant in his roles as the former Nazi scientist Strangelove, President Merkley, and Captain Mandrake, each persona being so vastly different as dictated by the screenplay. I liked character actor Slim Pickens as Major Kong. I used to see him appear on various TV shows. If you ever get a chance to see the movie, "The Flim-Flam Man" (1967), he appears in one scene opposite the great George C. Scott in his title role. Every time I watch "Strangelove", I want the bombardier Lt. Zogg (James Earl Jones) to speak through his mask so that he might sound a little like his later voiceover persona, Darth Vader, lol.

Stanly Kubrick is a strange man. his movies seem to be a drug fever dream.

Have patience. It seems like she's going through something right now and I'm sure you harping about this all the time isn't helping. I'm sure she'll get to them when she can.

A surprise, but a welcome one for sure! Does this mean you’re going to watch the other movies from the poll since Rear Window won?
