So how long can we expect that Oppenheimer video to be? :))

Congratulations! Also, pure evil villains need to make a comeback somehow. We've been stuck with a mix of relatable motivations but too detestable actions for those motivations for far too long.

YEEESSSSSSS I’ve been waiting for more closer look content! Honestly Henry, you’re one of my favourite creators on the platform because your videos help me understand what makes films great and because every video has such great standards of quality to them as well. Don’t burn yourself out, stay safe and I’ll see you soon on the Closer Look!

Thanks for making such great videos! As an aspiring writer, I really appreciate your tips on how to improve stories, not just tear them down. It helps a lot when I go through and revise my own writings. Keep up the great work!

I was one of your subs on the old channel, which I loved, and been a fan since day one on The Closer Look. Quality work. Well deserved.

A lot pf creators decide they need to upload every day which in the short term does help the channel but the excitement decreases. Your videos are so good I could wait a year and still come back to them. Take as long as you need!

Hey man, there is a reason you’ve made it this far. I’ve watched(or listened, I suppose) to pretty much every video you’ve mad twice. I’ve actually listened to the Last Of Us 2 vid 5 times. Your voice is perfect for this gig, the humor is great, and the in-site and reasoning are first class.

Thanks, Henry, on all your wonderful insights into what makes good writing and characters. I have learned so much from you over the past year or so that I've been subscribed. I'm looking forward to more videos from you. Congrats! Oh, and I was getting ready to remind you of a certain promise you made... but I didn't need to! I'm ready for some epic cringe lol!

I was just thinking about you the other day and wondering when you would post next. I'm not a writer but I love listening to your opinions on writing and all these different movies. It's made me think more while watching movies now. Thank you so much for all your hard work that you put in!

The Closer Look
Thank you so much for 1 million subscribers!
It’s been a good 6 years since I started The Closer Look, but I never imagined I’d get this far.
In all honesty, I ran a gaming channel for 4 years trying to ‘make it big’, but it never worked, and in the end I only got 7k subs there so I quit. I decided to start The Closer Look purely as a hobby, having fully given up on my dream of being a YouTuber full-time.
Then I uploaded my first TCL video on The Joker... and it’s currently at 2.4 million views. I was used to getting maybe 200 views on my old crappy gaming vids if I was lucky. The numbers are so high now I can’t even process them.
It’s been a hell of a ride, and I’m going to be uploading much more consistently going forward... starting with 2 videos coming out next week! One is a rather fun one defending pure evil villains, and breaking down why sometimes evil villains are much better than sympathetic ones.
The other is a true mammoth of a video essay on Star Wars I’ve been working on for over a year now. It’s nearly 2 hours long, and is a full breakdown of why the franchise is in such a sorry state, but more importantly, how it can be revived and made great once again.
Thank you again for all of your support. I hope I can do right by you, and if you ever have feedback for me, good or bad, you can always email me at thecloserlookcontact@gmail.com and I’ll do my best to take it on board.
Have a great day!
-Henry
p.s. yes, I know I promised something in a certain wonder woman video. I'll make a video on it once the current videos in the pipeline are completed.
Sorry for not being on the ball. I only realised I'd passed the million sub mark when someone came up to me IRL and said 'congratulations' lol.
