Anybody know any good film critique a***ysis or just any channels for film lovers. I need more YouTube channels to sub and noticed I don’t have much film related stuff
Kinda corny sometimes but corridor crew has some cool videos about vfx in different movies and shows
Here's a venn diagram that might save you a lot of time
honestly my man if you want decent critique find a blog or a podcast.
hell, download pdf books if you feel like reading, maybe not an option if you want something current though.
but there are magazines for that in your library probably

Accented Cinema. Primarily focuses on Eastern Asia cinema. Mostly Chinese. He does a variety of topics, with great break downs.
To give a serious response:
You will find much more diversity in content, criticism, and perspective from print criticism (digital or traditional) than you ever will on YouTube. The vast majority video content on that platform is extremely homogenous and barebones because that's what the platform is designed to promote.
On top of that, all the big name movie review channels have joined the same endless cycle of overwhelming recency bias and corporate box office coverage that traditional popular film journalists have been a part of for decades. (Even brand new channels with only a few hundred views/sub that aim to get popular start out in this cycle, because it's how you get your content boosted in search results and recommendations.)
Even when it comes to channels that cover topics in film history or theory, you will very rarely come across one that actually has more to offer than the typical Wikipedia article (which is already the bare minimum in terms of learning information); let alone accurate information.
Making a list of film critic blogs/collections and books will net you a lot more value I promise.
If you don't have money to spend, here's a site that you can search book titles/authors on to get free pdfs/ebook versions (works on mobile too). If you find a journal article you want read but it's behind a paywall, here's a site where you can paste the DOI/URL info and get it for free (also works on mobile).
And here's a site with links to 110 free film studies books covering various topics to get you started.
Bookmark sites like FilmComment, SensesOfCinema, Mubi Notebook, Cinema-Scope, and others.
If you're really looking for something visual, and if you have Hulu, then you should check out The Story of Film: An Odyssey — it's a 15-part series that gives a decent overview of film history, development of techniques, major movements from different countries, etc... It's a great jumpoff point before doing further reading if you're looking to learn more about the topic.
If you're into history and like movies about history or movies that are based on true events, this channel does a good job talking about how accurate/inaccurate those movies are: youtube.com/channel/UCggHoXaj8BQHIiPmOxezeWA

Def check that series out then. Should give you plenty of ideas for topics/filmmakers/genres that grab your interest to research afterwards
