I mean Griffin McElroy clearly has a vore fetish and everyone loves him so I think the bottom of what you can be into is pretty deep :v:

Though I remember there was some 4chan post that claimed to have Lindsey as a source about how much of a weirdo jagoff Linkara was back when they were doing those big crossover events

But let's get away from that I found something that is a little outside the box, this show called Your Dinosaur Is Wrong which I found out has been going on for years (only 23 episodes though) and I enjoy it a lot since the guy doing it while have little stage presence and seemingly doing the show in one take, actually does a lot of effort in trying to teach Dinosaurian anatomy and how all these toys you had as a child are wrong.

You know I had a friend once who went on a rant about how much worse gay lifestyle magazines were than lesbian lifestyle magazines, because lesbian magazines had "in-depth articles covering important issues, body positivity, girl scout cookie rankings, a sense of solidarity and community" and gay lifestyle magazines had "fashion advertorials, twinks and generic muscular guys, Armond loving White for some reason, celebrity gossip and racism"

This has nothing to do with anything, I just think about it every time Armond White comes up now.

The version I remember wasn't even anonymous, it was tell-all tales from the hired-on "lighting guy" on Kickassia. Which aside from being confirmed fictional, is loving hilarious if you know literally anything about the CA crossover movies.

Unless you mean anonymous source in that it was posted by an anon on 4chan. :v:

There’s no fetish-related gossip in there, though. Mostly it’s just stuff about the Walkers being clueless filmmakers, which I’d believe even if this story did turn out to be fake.

Yeah, that figures. A 4chan thread isn’t exactly a credible source of evidence.

The subject is still kind of fascinating to me, though. Not just the movies, but the whole story of the rise and fall of TGWTG and the stuff that went on behind the scenes. There’s probably enough material for someone involved with the whole thing to create a “Disaster Artist”-style book about it, but sadly it’s such a niche topic that I doubt it’d be profitable to write.

I've seen parts of that movie; the idea that they had paid anyone money to be a "lighting guy" in what I saw should automatically raise suspicions.

Its kinda sad seeing how everything turned out to be behind the scenes. If you watched some of Spoony's behind the scenes videos during the first anniversary special it really looked like everyone was having a good time.

I talked about this a bunch on stream a couple weeks ago, but aide from some "oh, honey" moments with the making of the anniversary films, the only real 'story' is that Mike Michaud is equal parts paranoid, petty, and bad at his job. The decline, or at least stagnation, of TGWTG is ultimately rooted in a series of very mundane failures, namely that they're absolutely garbage at communication. It would seriously be three hundred pages of "and then no one heard from anyone with decision making powers for months, until they finally got a 'oh, sorry, will fix that' on Skype. The issue was never fixed."

That's a shame. Oh well, it's not like I haven't seen them before.

Instead, I went and watched Bennett's Anime Abandon video on the Memories short film collection by Katsuhiro Otomo, and I took up his recommendation of watching Magnetic Rose before finishing the review. Holy hell am I glad I did. It's like Kubrick surrealism in anime form, and good god is it beautiful to look at.

I feel like a Rise and Fall of AICN would be more interesting. And even if there's not a lot of behind the scenes drama - and it's amazing that there doesn't seem to be, considering how vile and obnoxious Harry Knowles comes across as in his reviews and interviews - the subject is a great starting point for a larger discussion about the development of nerd culture/subcultures on the web.

Satoshi Kon writing and Yoko Kanno composing for that one plus pretty much the best animators in Japan at the time. Hell of a dream team, still one of my faves. If I was asked for a recommendation to try and convince someone that anime isn't all trash, that would still be my easy #1 pick to show them.

There's two kinds of gay lifestyle mags, one, and the most common, is basically Men's Health, But We're Overt About It Instead Of Subtle like GT and Out, the other is actual pretty solid mags that are about the queer community like Loverboy and Hello Mr.

Basically if it sounds incredibly stereotypical it's actually probably solid. If it sounds mainstream it probably sucks.
