Trivia / LinksTheSun

• Acting for Two:
  • Some of the Point Culture and Parenthèse video opens with a sponsored ad where Links plays both himself and a killer who stalks him.
  • The Point Culture about the best Sherlock Holmes adaptation opens with a sponsored ad where Links plays Holmes, Watson, and the murder victim they're studying.
  • Le Pire Editeur du Monde consists in a dialog where an author presents the draft of a famous book to a publisher, both played by Links.
• Creator Backlash: He doesn't hold his older videos in high regard because he was being stupid in them.
• Promoted Fanboy: As a big fan of Aventures, he made several graphs and statistics about each season, detailing the various successes and failures of every player character. Then he was invited as a guest on Mahyar other show, Réussite Critique, and later on an Aventures livestream.
• Real-Life Relative:
  • Links' brothers David and Jérémy occasionally appear as extras in the videos (especially in Non Mais T'as Vu Ce Que T'écoutes).
  • Lou (first appearance in the 50/50 about Dune (1984)) is Jérémy's girlfriend in real life.
• Urban Legend of Zelda: Many people believe his username is based on Link from ''The Legend of Zelda'' (No pun intended). His name actually comes from the song Links 2 3 4 by Rammstein, one of his favorite music bands.
• What Could Have Been:
  • The Parenthèse about the 20 worst Disney direct-to-video sequels / prequels / midquels / spin-offs was initially intended to be about the 20 best ones, but Links changed his mind when he actually rewatched them with an adult mind when preparing the episode, noticing they were full of flaws. Since Links watched 29 Disney DTV to make the video, most of those films should have theorically appear in the planned video about the best ones.
  • The Parenthèse about 20 very good novels adapted into 20 very good films originally was supposed about 20 films adaptation better than the original novel, but Links noticed bad books are either not adaptated or aren't adaptated into good movies, making impossible to reach the usual 20 entries the video while sticking to the intended criteria (Links estimates there may be 3 movies which could qualify). The video's opening is about clarifying the reasons for this change (the video's original focus had been teased beforehand).
  • According to the publicly available list of reviewed books, Point Lecture #27 was supposed to include nine reviews, but the released version only had seven. Links started Point Lecture #28 by explaining what happened: he really recorded the two missing reviews, but decided to cut them from the video. The cut reviews are Crépuscule, by Juan Branco and Faithless, T1 : L'épreuve de la tour, by E. D. Fischerman, respectively a political pamphlet and a fantasy novel.
    • Crépuscule isn't fiction but a pamphlet about how Emmanuel Macron (president of France at the time) climbed to the top, Branco is a controversed political activist, and the video was made during the political campaign for the 2022 presidential election^note Point Lecture #27 was released on February 9 2022, the first session of th election happened on April 10 2022, in which Macron was running for his re-election. For all those reasons, Links decided it wasn't a good context to expose his opinion on such a book. The review was supposed to be negative.
    • Faithless is one of the books written by Links' viewers then reviewed at their request. Links didn't like it at all and preferred to send his review to the writer in private before releasing the video. Links proposed the writer to not publish the review at all, which the writer accepted.
