Comments on Green brothers on Beijing public transportwhoa...thats 15 mins i will never get back I would have to say this edition is a bit amateur in the sense that they're not suggesting anything constructive. At least in the previous videos, I would say that I learned something new after watching it, but hey, nothing wrong with a video just for fun. It was moderately enjoyable :P After having to wait out 2 full trains and then being packed like cattle into the the 3rd train. . on a Sunday afternoon no less, I can only conclude that the subways are overused as it is!! The focus should be on getting people back onto bicycles. The popularity of Cars have caused the restructuring and ruin of every city. Not to mention peoples health and safety. Cars belong in rural areas. . not in a city! way to use the web to bring attention to a very important problem in modern china. keep going and good luck. I mean, nice try, but...really...ew. I don't really even have any positive suggestions. It's just bad humor and could have been done lots better. I know the internet is a complainer's ideal environment as well, and I'm saying this as I'd say to anyone involved in the project: slapstick doesn't win people's hearts. Vicious, biting, hurtful, sarcasm does. Tell me why people who insist on driving in this city are disgusting. The cooking oil-burning kuazi-cum-MC showdown? No. Groupies? No. How about a piece on how exhaust fumes make you less potent, entirely negating both the imagined increase in sexual appeal and the (slightly) real increase in performance increased confidence causes, leading to an army of dissatisfied women clamoring to be with bicyclists because of their Herculean stamina and tight, powerful butts? That and a good dose of how public opinion makers bring in groupies would have been a little more palatable to me. |
