In fact, my top is 2012 (all the Easter eggs on unlisted URLs) and in that edition, there are only 3 words spoken in the whole video. The one exception is 2011's, where Rebecca Black acted as a host.

In prior Rewinds, creators moved their mouths to pop songs and maybe one creator got to blurt out that year’s most popular meme or say something like “2013, let’s do this.” Not reel-worthy. This is the first time there is actual dialogue, that creators have an actual conversation and are not portrayed as mindless puppets lip-syncing the top songs of the year while executing well-choreographed dance moves. Third most disliked video on YouTube is Jake Paul‘s ‘It’s Everyday Bro’ followed by the trailer for Call Of Duty: Infinite Warfare, and Kjellberg’s attempt to create the most disliked video on YouTube history in fifth place.The first, most obvious reason why 2018’s YouTube Rewind doesn’t deserve all the downvotes is that this is the first year the creators actually have lines on-camera. “The reaction to 2018 Rewind has truly been remarkable US vlogger Casey Neistat stated. “Don’t be tone deaf on the community,” warned DramaAlert host Keem.

It’s so disconnected with the community and its creators.” “Now it’s like I’m almost glad I’m not in it, because it’s such a cringey video at this point. PewDiePie grizzled on his video: “I remember Rewind something that seemed like an homage to the creators that year. Nor does it acknowledge the deaths of YouTubers’ heroes as LazyTown’s “Robbie Rotten”actor Stefan Karl Stefansson. PewDiePie ( Felix Kjellberg) issued a reaction video in which he slammed the oversaturation of video game Fortnite and inclusion of non-YouTube identities as US talk show hosts Trevor Noah and John Oliver. However in a brief flash, Jaiden’s ‘Sub To PewDiePie’ Easter egg she hid in the background of one shot included a trophy with the word ‘tied’ on it.Īnother much discussed topic on the platform – PewDiePie’s battle with Bollywood channel T-Series to keep most subscribed spot – didn’t make the video’s final cut either. One reason is that YouTube’s top stars (and also its more controversial) as Logan Paul, Shane Dawson and PewDiePie were not included.ĭetractors criticised the failure to highlight Paul and KSI’s boxing bout in Manchester Arena in August which had been streamed by 800,000 people on YouTube. While Bieber’s dislikes accumulated over the past eight years, Rewind 2018 reached the milestone in just three days. It was released late last week with YouTube personalities cheesily acting out “the videos, music and trends that defined YouTube in 2018.”īy early this morning, it had 8 million dislikes compared to 2 million likes from a total of 106.4 million views.Īt the rate of the collection of thumbs-ups, it could overtake Justin Bieber‘s 2010 single ‘Baby’ which was disliked more than 9.7 million times versus 10 million views.
