60 of 123 · most liked firstI do think Chapo is a little pessimistic when it comes to film degradation. We're getting more slop than ever from Netflix because of the push for second screen entertainment but a lot of cable TV and movies were made the same way. A Christmas Story was meant to be ambient radiation on Christmas eve
neutral · AI labelView post →I first encountered this when the Chapo guys went after a YouTube movie review guy I liked. Truly shitty behavior.
neutral · AI labelView post →Had a hilariously good time talking to my old friends Will & Felix about the godawful Ben Shapiro movie/racist diatribe Run Hide Fight: Infidels on Chapo. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/c...
neutral · AI labelView post →The end of year “best podcast” lists are usually 0-10 for me. I just want to listen to dudes hanging out and occasionally history pods. 2023 favs: Chapo (and side projects like Movie Mindset), Junk Filter w @jessehawken.bsky.social, Who? Weekly, Bizarre Albums, Age of Napoleon, WTF, Stavvy’s World
neutral · AI labelView post →It's not a film about "normal people." That's what all of the heavy-handed "TOM CRUISE IS DIGGER" marketing was about. It's a movie about the inability of celebrities to save the world with performativity. And yes, that absolutely includes the Chapo guys (and Adam McKay).
neutral · AI labelView post →Listening to the recent Chapo on that reactionary Uwe Boll movie. God do I love when incurious people make art. "what would make someone decide to go out and commit murders of people he hates?" and the artist looks at you blankly and goes, "because he's right? Duh?? Are you fucking stupid??"
neutral · AI labelView post →My colleague @lukewsavage.bsky.social and I will be hosting the star-studded post-film discussion at the Toronto screening of the Chapo Trap House production CHUNKS. September 1. Come one come all: paradiseonbloor.com/movies/chunk...
neutral · AI labelView post →Lol didn't Chapo do an episode about this film
neutral · AI labelView post →There's a film on Netflix about (El Chapo) Guzman's third arrest in 2016. If reality is even close to what is portrayed in that film, then holy crap! Those federales deserve a lot of respect. So many in their positions over the years have just taken the money. Those guys dealt with intense pressure.
neutral · AI labelView post →It's weird to see the definition of chud change so much through complete dissolution over the past few years Used to just be something we called right wingers because of this movie (I think it was Chapo trap house that's started it, I never listened so I'm not sure)
neutral · AI labelView post →Chapo did a great episode on this movie. It’s funny how the villains believe all the same things the average Daily Wire reader believes, to the point that one of the DW’s staff jokes about how despite a character’s desire to murder queer people, the movie also shows bad things they believe.
neutral · AI labelView post →Movie critics, who are more liberal than leftist, hate it as much as the Chapo guys because it's as much an indictment of their work and lifestyle as it is Chapo's.
neutral · AI labelView post →The beginning and end of me learning about that sound of freedom movie is the latest Chapo ep where Matt Christman brings up that the movie has a white hat pedophile helping the squad
neutral · AI labelView post →Sneak peak at scenes from the Chapo movie
neutral · AI labelView post →It's not even a movie about leftists vs. liberals, but you incredibly delusionally assume that the only possible criticism of the Chapo guys is that they're too far left
neutral · AI labelView post →True Anon has really come into its own. Don't always have 2.5 hours to listen to an episode, but they're really nailing to zeitgeist. You know politics is back because Chapo is only like 50% a movie and pop culture podcast right now.
neutral · AI labelView post →HUNDREDS OF BEAVERS director Mike Cheslik's appearance on Chapo Movie Mindset is one of the best director interviews in recent memory. Incredible at explaining things about his process succinctly, self-deprecating but without false modesty, just A Guy who made A Great Movie. Give it a listen:
neutral · AI labelView post →I do find it bizarre that someone who made their name on a podcast called "Cumtown" is now a respectable movie star. Makes me wonder if @mugrimm.bsky.social's hypothesis that putting one of the Chapo guys on CNN at the ten o'clock slot is possible.
neutral · AI labelView post →They were discussing the Reagan movie on Chapo this week and I agree with the premise that a lot of people doing these inexplicable hollywood gigs have immense gambling debts or hit one of the Illuminati's grandkids drunkenly leaving a party lol
neutral · AI labelView post →This panic about Young Men has been ongoing since forever. Before Clav it was Andrew Tate, 6ix9ine, the Joker movie, Chapo Trap House, Gamergate, MRAs, Xbox lobbies, violent video games, Eminem, anime, internet porn, gangsta rap, Mortal Kombat, dirty rap, arcade games, crack babies, etc etc etc
neutral · AI labelView post →Left out Brihana Joy Gray, Nina Turner, David Sirota and the Chapo Trap House that ran nasty porn attacks on Pete Buttigieg. (the Caligula film in 2020). It was before Musk bought Twitter. Chapo Trap House is the left version of Rogan and is nasty as any RW homophobic Christian group.
neutral · AI labelView post →It's time to make a confession. For years I thought when people were talking about Chapo they were talking about the movie (That's) Chappie.
neutral · AI labelView post →Enjoy his fake Pixar movie song courtesy of Chapo Trap House youtu.be/-w-Rrk-Q7-k?...
neutral · AI labelView post →I just watched that insane Black Easter: Assassination 33AD movie they made fun of on Chapo. Great experience. Happy Easter
neutral · AI labelView post →Financed by the Chapo production company that did that baseball movie
neutral · AI labelView post →yoooooooo it's ya boy @johnsemley3000.bsky.social spreading the Clint/Siegel gospel on Chapo's latest Movie Mindset (The Beguiled and Escape from Alcatraz) www.patreon.com/posts/131715...
neutral · AI labelView post →I can’t believe Chapo Trap House, which makes only $181k/month and just produced a feature film, was cancelled by libs.
neutral · AI labelView post →Like Chapo is only a thing because of the Benghazi movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →Film twitter would be so much more tolerable if Chapo had not started, or if Chapo were just video game nerds instead
neutral · AI labelView post →It’s a podcast. Chapo has them on as guests occasionally
neutral · AI labelView post →I mean, it's all there in that speech you excerpted that Jeremy Bohring gives to his daughter in Lady Ballers: women are worse than men at everything and can redeem themselves only through childrearing. I disagree with Chapo on lots, but they were right when they said that movie _despises_ women.
neutral · AI labelView post →Chapo conduit aside, it’s a good reference and I’m glad the film continues to remain alive in the minds of the masses
neutral · AI labelView post →There was an episode of the Best Show with some of the Chapo guys that was a list of the Top 50 Worst movie characters. Lars Ulrich “won” twice for Some Kind of Monster and Get Him to the Greek.
neutral · AI labelView post →The Chapo Movie Mindset episode about “Audition” is so good that it almost makes me want to rewatch that movie. An absolute masterpiece that I never want to see again.
neutral · AI labelView post →Tbf, I'm getting a sub for Chapo entirely for the Metal Gear Solid and movie talk
neutral · AI labelView post →Any swap meet in the Southwest will sell the movie poster and/or a painting with Scarface, El Chapo, Tony Soprano, Vito Corleone as the heads of organized crime families. #hatm #Scarface
neutral · AI labelView post →I listened to the Chapo review of Lady Ballers the gross Daily Wire movie about this, and the thing that sticks out is how none of this outrage is really about trans people at all, its rooted primarily in misogyny.
neutral · AI labelView post →Chapo doing avatar was when I split. Does every podcast eventually just become a movie review thing?
neutral · AI labelView post →Yeah. Quoting the Chapo book here but after Trump's shocking win, liberals mainlined downers, sat in an ice bath for sixteen hours, and watched every Bond movie back to back, then came out gibbering about russian disinformation and pee tapes. It is anything but their own lack of appeal.
neutral · AI labelView post →Really enjoyed the Chapo/Movie Mindset episode on Barry Lyndon but man, sometimes I think Felix’s main strength is asserting his superiority over all the chuds who pay to listen to him
neutral · AI labelView post →context-OP referring to another podcast called Chapo traphouse
neutral · AI labelView post →"Right wingers have to pretend they like an Uwe Boll movie" is not a thing I was expecting for 2026, but it isn't that surprising either. Made for a great Chapo episode, too!
neutral · AI labelView post →Same vibe of when film Robert saw that widow trailer with Red Guardian and when he looked like Matt Christman he said oh Disney is aware of Chapo and responding to it, because they're my friend
neutral · AI labelView post →The Chapo guys made the point that Alfred Molina's single scene in Boogie Nights was an essential, load bearing part of the film. I think they may be right.
neutral · AI labelView post →Chapo talking about a Seagal film tonight "The Glimmer Man." Finally a movie mindset episode I actually give a shit about.
neutral · AI labelView post →I haven't agreed with a lot of the Chapo guys' film takes, so that makes sense lol I certainly don't begrudge people to like what they like and I'm definitely checking that pod out, never heard of it. Thank you for the rec!
neutral · AI labelView post →It’s also bad that there isn’t a more popular left figurehead to take up the mantle after Chapo decided to quit and do boring movie bullshit
neutral · AI labelView post →I think it was one of the Chapo guys who (jokingly) said that every Scorsese movie is about cool guys hanging out.
neutral · AI labelView post →the Chapo episode on this movie was one of the funniest podcasts I've ever listened to
neutral · AI labelView post →Allowing myself the joy of remembering the time Amber from Chapo claimed that Alamo Drafthouse is racist because they set the expectation that it's rude to talk during a movie. A few months later she would be appearing on Red Scare.
neutral · AI labelView post →have either of you seen 100s OF BEAVERS? the director Mike Cheslik went on Chapo and one of his explanations for making a DIY film look better than it is really stuck with me: If a shot is good make it a wee bit worse, if a shot is bad make it a wee bit better, and they'll meet in the middle
neutral · AI labelView post →I think it's only done by the Chapo wing. Who probably do think that movie villains are role models - they like posting like Sephiroth.
neutral · AI labelView post →🎶El Chapo will choppppp you up He gonna chop you uppppp Chop you uppp🎶 (If you seen the movie Stay Tuned 1992, then you know what song i speak of)
neutral · AI labelView post →Least favorite Chapo episodes: in depth interviews with labor organizers, journalist Most favorite Chapo episodes: discussion of a movie I am never ever going to watch
neutral · AI labelView post →With all due respect to Chapo, the third Run, Hide, Fight movie would surely be Ms Rachel, AOC, and Ilhan Omar killing children, and only the based Cosa Nostra can stop them.
neutral · AI labelView post →As much as I depsise Chapo their episode on the original Avatar movie remains some of the best radio I have ever heard
neutral · AI labelView post →Just watched ‘Facing El Chapo’ (2026) on Netflix recommended by my colleague at work. Based on a true story. A mexican film regarding the recapture of Joaquin ‘El Chapo’ Guzman. Also worth watching for Alfonso Herrera. @netflix.com #Netflix #FacingElChapo #AlfonsoHerrera #FilmRecommendation
neutral · AI labelView post →«Facing El Chapo has emerged as Netflix’s top movie in the United States. According to FlixPatrol, the film ranked first on Netflix’s Top 10 Movies chart on August 23, 2026, placing it ahead of several well-known blockbusters. These include To Catch a Cheater, The Last House, The Great Wall […]
neutral · AI labelView post →as for the question of Aster’s politics, it’s worth noting that he did do an interview for Movie Mindset, the Chapo Trap House side-pod with Will Menaker and Hesse Deni.
neutral · AI labelView post →The context regarding both the movie and Chapo Trap House definitely helps AND makes sense, thank you! Anything I see these days is moreso leaning towards a term of endearment, like reclaiming it FROM the left and it's just tiring.
