Marathoning all the Boogyman videos is not a bad idea and neither is doing it with the Pulse ones.

Infamous Sphere posted:I've been mentioned already in the thread but I may as well introduce myself to any newcomers. Hi, I'm Infamous Sphere, and I have a show where I review queer movies (and queer TV and one comic and one book) and period dramas. That's everything from famous big-name "everyone's heard of this" stuff, weird arthouse stuff, hideously bad stuff and really old stuff - although I've covered a lot more LGBT media than I have period pieces. There's also a lot of LGBT period pieces, because...well...of course. I Just got around to watch your videos, and I've kind of been binge watching them today. My roommate and I have a very young gay friend who's had trouble knowing where to begin with looking into queer culture and theory, (most of his friends are 17-18 year old hipsters who see his sexuality more as a niche) so we plan to have a once a month queer cinema day at our apartment. I've had problems finding stuff that wasn't just utterly depressing or exploitative so it's nice to have someone weed it out a bit. I already added a lot of the stuff you covered to the list of movies we'll watch. So thanks!

Some of my favorite Phelous videos are the Pulse ones, especially where he rages over the Internet Ghosts and the in-canon(?) reason why he wears red.

Phelous is a funny guy, but he kind of has a face for radio and a voice for The Great Train Robbery. Is there any stuff where he's just the writer?

Oh, hey, looks like Jay Bauman is, out of nowhere, branching out into doing vlogs now! He brings up some interesting points, but I'm not entirely sure I'm with him. Maybe in the followups.

Tyger runs a show called MUD2MMO where he talks about aspects of video games, gamers, the culture, the industry and, on rare occasions, nostalgic music. I watched his videos before he was on Channel Awesome (and the old stuff can be found here) and his newest one is about nostalgia. He also has a Patreon. I learned about him from ChaosD1 and his MMO Grinder show, which I'll put up later.

Heh. It's funny that you'd expect a film as notorious as Ishtar to be a career destroyer, but Dustin Hoffman, Warren Beatty, Isabelle Adjani, and Elaine May all walked away from it with their careers intact. It's mindboggling.

Beatty killed his career at the end of the 1990s when he made that romantic comedy that ended up costing $80 million. I've heard he's finally resolved the legal issues that were keeping him from making a Dick Tracy sequel the past 25 years or so, though.

johnfw50 posted:Rap Critic's Top Nine Rap Songs is up. I mostly just listen to the hit parade, so I feel like I only catch the worst of the "drank, clubs, n' hoes" rap singles that circulate, but I do like Kendrick Lamar a lot, so Rap Critic's #1 pick, (one of only two songs in the list I had heard before,) made me happy. That song and last year's "Bitch Don't Kill My Vibe" were sooooo loving good and weren't on the charts anywhere near long enough. I even went out of my way to hear him perform it live on SNL, despite their horrible acoustics and the idea of having to voluntarily watch SNL. Anyway, great list, some stuff for me to check out as the charts settle into ennui yet again...

If you'd like recommendations for queer movies that are nice and positive and fun etc, I can give you some. Some ones that I haven't reviewed but I think are more positive in tone are Beautiful Thing, loving Amal/Show Me Love, The Sum Of Us (although it might be upsetting if he doesn't have a good relationship with his parents), My Beautiful Laundrette, Cloudburst, But I'm A Cheerleader, The Incredibly True Adventure of Two Girls In Love (which is VERY 90s, so just be prepared for that) and Pride. (The above films are a mix of lesbian and gay male and a couple of trans themes.) Lots of people like Weekend, because of how aggressively "normal" but at the same time explicitly queer it is, but I personally found it a bit dull. I'm not as up on my LGBT tv, or my LGBT comic books, so you might have to get some other recommendations on that if he's interested in that kind of thing. But I definitely recommend having queer movie nights.

Angry Joe has another run in with Copyright. This time it's Nintendo. Funny since I thought that after the incident and the stupid discussions (shout matches), they were okay with Let's Plays and reviews. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=koX-Ny6zHdM& Still don't have any idea how people are quick to defend corporations when often the corporations in question often don't seem to care about the customers.

I'm sure Joe should of known that Nintendo has long ago announced that they were going to claim all ad revenue for any videos with their content. Though I do agree its kinda silly that they can get ALL the revenue.

Leal posted:I'm sure Joe should of known that Nintendo has long ago announced that they were going to claim all ad revenue for any videos with their content. Yeah that makes no sense. If Joe does make a video with Nintendo and Bioware content, what happens? Does Nintendo bully Bioware out or do they have some sort of agreement? If a share why not give Joe a cut? It's not exactly clear on YouTube's policy. Then again YouTube doesn't like being told that their policies have unclear/unfair guidelines. Speaking which I've now realized that it's been two years since YouTube pretty much gave corporations the "gently caress you" button, and despite numerous complaints from well, everyone, they still kept it and now it's kind of a begrudging acceptance.

Thats what I was wondering too, recently Microsoft released some terms for LPs and something like all LPs of Microsoft games were semi canon (so if Microsoft does something suggested in an LP it saves them from "I thought of it first" lawsuits or something like that). So with that in mind, what if I did a Halo LP, so its semi in canon fro the Halo lore, and for a single frame there is just a picture of Mario. Does that mean Nintendo gets all profits from my 30 minute video cause for 1/60th of a second I had a picture of Mario up there? Does that mean Nintendo will profit off a Microsoft game lets play? Does this mean that Mario is now semi canon in the Halo universe? Surely just taking a cut rather then the whole hog will work better for Nintendo? I'd rather earn a percentage of 100 people's earnings rather then 100% of 10 people's earning.

I know this happened to Total Biscuit one time during his podcast. I think it was about 2 1/2 or 3 hours long and because he used a minute long trailer for Pokemon X/Y Nintendo managed to claim the entire video and only they made money off of it.

Funny since I thought that after the incident and the stupid discussions (shout matches), they were okay with Let's Plays and reviews. A fair number of Nintendo-heavy content creators who didn't wanna give up have been able find ways around it, either through editing or simply by just becoming a managed partner with their network. Seriously seeing how many of them were able to get managed status in the past year it doesn't seem as exclusive and rare as people originally said it was. I don't know why he's not managed even though he's a part of a network, he's got a brand and he's made an issue every time this has happened to him before- quote:Im still Affiliated because I want to know when smaller channels are getting hosed and stand up for them. IS this how Nintendo acts on YT? Oh, well that sounds....uh....

That NC Matrix review is pretty lame overall and really reaches for things to complain about, but the gag of him saying that nothing's changed since 1999 while dozens of white cops beat Laurence Fishburn is pretty funny. Even though he probably should have noticed that race has thematic significance for the movie.
