New Monster Madness from James Rolfe on the 1977 House https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fp_ZCuZHVtk loving everyone needs to see this needs to see this, I can't praise Hausu enough. It's easily still one of my favorite movies ever. Bakeneko posted:No, but if youre going to accuse someone of something as bad as that you should at least offer an example of what youre talking about. I assumed that that there would be such an example in that video since that was the one that was linked. He's gone on about his politics a bit in other Family Guy videos and one Simpsons review but nothing I'd really call MRA poo poo exactly, just maybe slightly askew right but nothing truly offensively terrible.

What are odds that Spoony will make a Halloween special video? The new Angry Video Game Nerd episode is pretty good - I liked it more than the last one.

Fossilized Rappy posted:drat, Todd went straight for the throat with that one and it's glorious. When was the last time he reviewed a song that he was this merciless on? I feel like most of his actual Pop Song Reviews over the past couple years have been pretty vicious. He only really reviews contemporary stuff now if it's something he's got a strong opinion on, compared to when he got started where he'd review anything that hit #1.

Goddamn some of you people just can't get out of the eternal tizzy over the stupid poo poo plinkett review that was and still is the weakest and least interesting of any of their output. Also using that dumb character in general to uncover the horrible truth that they're really woman hating MRA alt-right nazi mouthpieces or something I don't know by this point anymore.

It was obviously a parody of all the clickbait Rogue One speculation videos and articles that have been cropping up, so it’s safe to say you shouldn’t take anything in it seriously. They did a similar one for The Force Awakens last year. On the subject of critics evolving and changing their styles, I’d like to express my appreciation for the new direction Halloweenie has gone in this year. Switching up the format like that and adding new characters could easily have failed if the writing wasn’t up to the task, but I’d say it’s funnier than ever even without the pretence of reviewing anything. It helps that the new co-stars actually do a really good job and get funny moments of their own, rather than feeling shoehorned in like it often does when reviewers go for more elaborate skits and storylines.

They did a similar one for The Force Awakens last year. Confused satire isn't a new thing with RLM. In the prequel reviews Stoklasa-as-Plinkett complains that the modern commercialization of Star Wars is bad, unlike the old commercialization, which was innocent and pure. Now you might suppose that it's mocking nostalgia (even with the extent of the prequel merchandise, saying that it was fundamentally different before is horribly naive), but there's also an extended metaphor about Lucas becoming selling out to become a heartless capitalist tyrant like Charles Foster Kane. So unless that's also mock people who think that, it fits into a larger critical argument the reviews make. Violet_Sky posted:Todd reviews Shawn Mendes's hit "Treat You Better" I remember Todd being interesting since he could explain music in a fairly down-to-earth way, but this seems to be stuck in being really mad at [thing].
