So, hows this script doing then?
Added 2018-08-29 21:39:52 +0000 UTCWell, if your not in my discord, then you won't be completely up to date with this script but it isn't finished unfortunately.

Also I manage to do a 5 hour stream where myself, Wolf and Rags all gave a crude rip into a video with certain ideas about plot holes that conflict with the very point of my assessments, check that out here if you have a spare 5 hours - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IPkdJP0Ut2Q
So, since the count from 2 weeks ago at 117K; we are now sitting at a grand total of 143,035 words.
And the notes doc containing the references being lowered from 15K to 6K which is a huge chunk gone.
I have now split the series into six parts ahead of time with the longest 2 being 3 hours each by the look of things. So I should be done with the script in a week and then I will hound the YouTube guest spots for their audio :D
I have 2 out of 7 right now, those lazy bastards! ;)
Once the redraft is done and I have the audio from the Youtubers, I will slot them in at what I consider to be tonally appropriate moments. And revel at the completed script with each of the 500+ references in their correct positions.
To clarify, this is going to be three times as long and possibly three times as researched as the assessment of The Last Jedi and I want it to be the greatest series I have ever made.
I have been so exited to write certain portions because of what I have found and how well I felt I can get the explanations across. Not to mention playing with some of the editing in advance.
So what I hope for is the next update has a big picture of the completed script and a final word count with information on what happens next because obviously I will be recording and editing and rendering but I will also be covering The Predator, Venom and Aqua-man as they release this year.
So the critique will be delayed if I bump into any of those films, most likely The Predator will be the only one but then I will be posting editing updates on here, which are much more exiting than script updates and hopefully, within 2 months;
You guys will have 15 hours of content, cleaned up and redrafted to my very best ability.
I am going to get back to the script now, I am on the summary of the summary and talk about some relevant meta information.
Before writing up the exit outro's and stuff, so that's how close I am to completion :) Thanks again for your patience folks, we're almost there!
Comments
I usually cannot stand to watch livestreams; usually they have lots of long pauses and rambling, and in long-form content I can't be bothered to watch it. So I'm looking forward to your next scripted piece. However, I've decided to give your most recent one a try - it's a lot better on 1.25x speed.

It ended up this way in same vein as my ds 2 series, which turned one hour into ten. I can't guarantee that you will like it but it's the best thing I have made on YouTube so far from my perspective, once it's complete of course :)

2018-08-29 22:19:14 +0000 UTCI will admit I am a little bit skeptical about this critique. While I am looking forward to it, I hope it isn't going to be an overambitious project that ends up saying little in so many hours. Either way, I have much faith in you MauLer and I can't wait to listen to the videos during work :)

2018-08-29 22:16:03 +0000 UTCThat 5 hour stream kept me company through the last hour of my work day, my commute, the gym and some Dark Souls 3 adventuring (I recently completed DS2, framing my experience through MauLer Response Theory- it was an okay time, but I agree with the vast majority of your arguments). That stream was honestly great. I’d love to see more “shoot the shit and respond to a daft youtuber” steams with Wolf, Rags and yourself.
