I've never heard a producer who makes such samey-sounding songs ever.

ZakAce posted:I'm not 100% sure that the 5SOS song has the worst line ever. Pointing out the brand of your girlfriend's undies is pretty bad, but it's not outright offensive like at least one line in, say, that Chris Brown song 'Deuces'. Nonono, he's talking about the brand of HIS underwear while she is wearing them. It's a very clumsy-sounding line, although yeah that line in Deuces and HEFTY BAG are probably worse.

You don't even need to bring the holiday special up, the Star Wars Prequels are significantly worse movies than either Matrix sequel.

I like Joe's gaming controversy video last year, but hearing this poo poo about his video this year is disappointing. It's not helping that he's apparently throwing a fit at BroTeamPill for the copyright claim. I mean I'd be loving pissed if I got lumped with gamergaters too, and according to the BroTeam guy he tried to handle it in a more amicable way and got ignored.

WickedHate posted:Goddamn it, Joe. It's like everyone on CA now is either an rear end in a top hat or being chased off if they aren't. Well, LordKat and AA were assholes that left and was let go respectively, but that was a long time ago. Apparently all BroTeam asked for was a disclaimer in the video description that he had nothing to do with GamerGate, and that request was ignored. I'm not sure why that was apparently so hard for Joe to do that it had to get to this level for him to do it, and apparently Joe kept emailing him a bunch after they'd already settled things and the DCMA was withdrawn.

Gyges posted:How you can watch it and sigh about Joe just not getting it, why isn't he anti-gamer gate, is beyond me. I haven't watched it dude, it was taken down before I could. I was mostly commenting on why it was taken down and the immediate aftermath of it. It would have probably been a better idea to not have pictures of anyone representing either side to avoid exactly this sort of situation. His handling of a simple request was not very professional, and considering how much larger a fanbase Joe has than BroTeam (by a factor of ten), lumping BroTeam in with that side is something that could very much harm their reputation. Senerio posted:Reading their twitter stuff, the BroTeamPill guy comes off as a tool, even if he does have a point. Joe was apparently away from his computer, but he shouldn't have just grabbed a random image off the internet either. BroTeam sounds like reddit personified, I have no real stake in their side at all. But even still, it was a poor decision on Joe's part all around. I tried watching one of their videos and it was basically American Zero Punctuation except significantly less funny, which yeah just ponder that for a few minutes.

Kim Justice posted:He's also the same guy who posted about being utterly screwed over by Machinima a few months back, which he rightfully got a bit of sympathy for. A part of me kinda thinks that all this crap is all just a bit of a stab at getting some notoriety to replace the momentum he lost (mind you, making videos that weren't samey highlights of streams or pro-GG flotsam would also help with that...drat it, I used to like his stuff) Yeah this was the extent of my knowledge of BroTeam before this poo poo. Between this and the current CA crap, it's pretty obvious that these sorts of video publisher type things are not long for this world.

Beefstew posted:New Star Wars actually looks really good so far. Like, it could still end up terrible, but almost everything they've shown/announced has been good. More practical effects, real sets, puppets, no EU bullshit, relative unknown actors, female and black leads, screenwriter from Empire Strikes Back, fight choreography done by the guys who did The Raid movies, Andy Serkis, and an outright REFUSAL to accept George Lucas's script suggestions. It's definitely going to play it safe; it won't bring the series in a new direction, and it won't equal the original trilogy. There's gonna be a lot of references and fanservice, just like the Abrams Star Trek, but honestly, Abrams was more cut out to make a Star Wars movie than a Trek movie anyway. I've got high hopes. I was cautiously optimistic before the second Abrams Star Trek movie. Into Darkness was so lovely, however, that it really dulled any optimism I had. It can't possibly be anywhere near as bad as the prequels, but I dunno. Maybe I've just outgrown Star Wars or some poo poo, but I cannot even force myself to look forward to it.

Sephiroth_IRA posted:It's been a long time so I'm probably misremembering but I think Jack just wanted to keep violent games out of the hands of minors which doesn't sound so terrible but he was always going on the news after every school shooting to blame it all on video games. Jack Thompson wanted a lot more than just keeping games out of kids' hands. He is a loving lunatic who would do poo poo like write letters to the makers of Grand Theft Auto asking them how they felt about being the people who would destroy humanity and other such nonsense. He also lost his license by being a complete cock in court, and before then would randomly just insult people he disagreed with. So really, a perfect fit for gamergaters to welcome into their ranks if you think about it. e: oh eh also was responsible for one of the few times Penny Arcade ever did anything worthwhile, when he said he'd donate 10k dollars to a charity of choice if a game developer made a game where you killed the people who made it. Several did so and he never donated, so Penny Arcade did and labeled the donation as something like 'because Jack Thompson won't', and he threatened legal action against PA for it. Seriously, just go dig through the man's history and everything he said and did when he still had the power and platform to do so, it's complete insanity.

Sephiroth_IRA posted:I never really enjoyed their comic but why are people so hard on Penny Arcade? Haven't they raised a ton of money for charity and stuff? One of the dudes behind it has a reputation as being kind of a dickbag, and the community kinda sucks. That said, I don't really hate PA, I just find the comic itself awful more than anything. It also kinda laid the foundation for 'comic based around guys playing video games' that gave us poo poo like CAD, as it was the first of its kind.

Anyone who cares enough about music to watch something like OHW surely already knows everything there is to know about Zevon, which to me kinda defeats the purpose of a show that's supposed to be about one-hit wonders that nobody really thinks about or knows much about.

PassTheRemote posted:Confused Matthew is objective the same way Moviebob is Objective. He is a relic from the Post AVGN boom where everyone was a caustic reviewer who hated everything. Not that I am necessarily defending them, but the simple fact is that people would rather watch videos of someone talking about why they hate something rather than why they like it. There's more room for comedy material when you're explaining why you dislike something, and speaking from my own experience, explaining why you don't like something is a lot easier than explaining why you do. It's no surprise that negative reviewers draw larger audiences, even if a lot of them kinda suck at what they do.

Also apparently Pure Massacre & Anthem for the year 2000 were top 20 on the Billboard mainstream rock charts. I live in America and seem to remember Anna's Song being played a whole lot on my local rock stations. Maybe the stations where I lived just really liked that song, or maybe I'm just misremembering because I hated that song so much v  vAside from that and Tomorrow, I have no recollection of a single other one of their songs.
