  • The fact that a nearly 100 year old movie has copyright issues is insane to me

    “One death is a tragedy, six million is a statistic.” I feel like that quote really speaks to how we as a people tend to look back on wars.

    Having WWI veterans basically recreate something traumatizing from their past was probably really weird. My great great grandfather faught in the trenches and whenever my grandfather asked him about anything related to WWI and the trenches, he’d get scary PTSD attacks and start hyperventilating. If someone’s trauma was triggered by even mentioning, I can’t imagine filming a movie about it.

    the fact that Wendigoon was basically forced to be a reaction youtuber just to put this video out shows how much Youtube caters to reaction channels

    Watching a blinded soldier scream in absolute fear of death while Wendigoon chows down on hummus is the most bizarre thing I've seen all week. Great video
  • The thought of stabbing someone then spending hours with that person while he dies is so haunting and sad. I couldn't imagine anything more horrific or sad.
  • 49:57 The fact that Paul’s death is offscreen and we only have his hand to show he died is soooo so much better than showing Paul die onscreen. To that sniper, Paul was just another German enemy to take care of. And on top of that, that hand could belong to any soldier (although we know it’s Paul), making him just another faceless casualty in a war he didn’t want. And that applies for all the soldiers; they’re just another casualty, another note to send to another family, another grave to dig, another hospital bed to empty and fill, another tick mark added to the death toll. 😭

    Reminds me of the time in grade 12 where a woman came to speak to us about joining the military as a means to afford university education. Her daughter was a soldier that died (I don't remember where she died, what war etc). But I was absolutely disgusted by how this woman spoke so highly of war and the military, when it was what took away her daughter. So when we were leaving the auditorium, and other kids asked about signing up, I told her that I was so sorry for her loss. She legitamently looked at me like I had two heads.
  • Soldier: having a mental breakdown Wendigoon: ☕️🗿
  • The screaming when Behm is blinded genuinely frightened me. This whole film is insane, especially for the time.
  • @silask93
    Another thing about cat i appreciate is how he says "it's happened to better men than you, and it's happened to me" Even more to how good a character he was
  • @CCorvidd
    the fact that, when i was watching, i was interrupted by an army recruitment ad is... a cosmic level of situational irony. lord have mercy.
  • So sad to see that this is the last footage of Wendigoon before he got trapped in Sand Cave for 15 days straight, Internet Historian just talked about this tragedy
  • @DarkManifesto
    I like how Wendigoon says "he's so funny" and "this is highly entertaining" with a huge smile and in the clip he just continues to casually munch on hummus with no sight of entertainment on his face
  • An absolutely heartbreaking detail I noticed during the scene where Paul reaches out for the butterfly over the trench was back when he was home, you could see pictures of butterflies hung up on the wall of his bedroom. Ngl it made me cry.
  • @jedamaral1864
    As a legitimate combat vet myself I’d just like to thank you , the respect you show for men that have suffered threw the brutality of war is appreciated.
  • @ekit254
    Not only do we get a new video, we also get to see how slowly wendigoon is building a mansion out of magic spoon boxes
  • @MayatheAmazon
    The absolute irony that the audience from so many countries all universally reacted to this film , in the same exact manner that the people in Paul’s town (teachers, students, etc) reacted to him saying “war is not what it’s been made out to be guys.” That in itself is satirical
  • I legit cried when Paul was trying to help the French soldier and i kept thinking about the scene where he gave him water and i would not stop thinking about it for weeks
