Overly Sarcastic Productions I guess specializes in I guess Cliffs Notes versions of myths and weird fiction, but a guy who posts on the channel called Blue just does history videos that are a lot of fun. 15-20 minute videos that don't go very in-depth but the guy clearly cares and is reasonably knowledgeable so if you just want to marathon (lol) a bunch of history about the ancient world then his videos on Egypt, Rome, Persia, Greece, Byzantium, etc are a lot of fun.

I mean an okay Disney movie but if you're a guy who knows as much about history as about film then I guess.

It's a decent movie with some great things going for it. I don't know why you're so stuck on it.

Found out about this channel and had to stop what I was doing cause the concept is so cool and ambitious that I'd never forgive myself as a history lover for not watching: 10 minute or less videos each about a week in WW1. So you get the entire war, whether that week be momentous or slow, approached in an unfocused manner I've never seen before that nevertheless offers a unique view of a historical event. Pretty sweet so far but I'm not that far in.

The host is also different than what you would expect from a Youtube channel. He looks about in his 40s, doesn't talk or look like an internet person, and his set and clothes give the impression of an eccentric classroom. The mixing on his audio is a bit high but in general his approach is refreshing.

The entire series, hundreds of videos at this point, is complete, so no chance that you'll be left hanging.

Oh and one other fun thing about this channel is that it started in July 2014, and WW1 started in July 1914, so it begins and ends exactly 100 years before the beginning and end of WW1.
