When Alan Moore said in one of his interviews that the fans of comic book movies tend to act like stubborn children, Razorfist made a video equivalent of "NO U", where he said that Moore's contributions to comic book medium are basically nil, he's a mediore hack and everything he ever did is garbage.

So edgy!

My favorite little thing is that he makes fun of how Moore dresses. I'd take an awesome looking crazy hobo over some moron wearing aviators indoors any day.

I'm sorry, did you mean awesome-looking crazy ARISTOCRATIC hobo? This is Alan Moore at his own wedding, with his old friend Neal Gaiman:

Can I appeal to the collective mind of SA? I want to check out some good comic book videos (reviews, video essays, etc.) but don't know where to start. Also, the less "humor" and sketches there are, the better.

Jeez, I never even understood how can a completely sane modern person hate something THIS much. And why, for the love of all the gods, would you admit to punching a movie poster out of frustration? All jokes aside, this is not healthy. Nor is it funny or endearing. That's probably the reason why I quit watching every "angry reviewer" out there: their rage is almost always disproportionate and unwarranted.

I'd post the videos of Joe being really loving awkward when he's interviewing people (I think Keighley and Felicia Day are two of them?) but I don't want to search for them because they're so cringe.

The "interview" with Keighley was so one-sided, I almost felt bad for Joe. Almost. And Joe's hilariously weak 24-minute step-by-step analysis/rebuttal didn't help in the slightest.
He's a good kid, from what little I heard of him, but this tired angry shtick needs to go.

He is significantly more mellowed out than your typical (angry) reviewer and his taste in movies is on point. I usually don't like overanalysis, but in his case it's alright.

Rules don't matter much if DM is great and knows how to read the situation. I remember a scene at the end of our campaign when we returned to the tavern and my character wanted to drink his tea with milk. Which he decided to get from a cow by himself (hey, he likes it fresh). Our DM made me roll a die, which I failed, so what happened is my character looked this poor cow straight in the eye and beat the poo poo out of her udder. He then dropped his cup, sat on all four and licked the milk and tea off the floor.

DM took the piss out of me, and this made our campaign infinitely more enjoyable.

The NC Fury Road review sounds a lot like the Matrix review, which is where I finally gave up on the show. They kept on whining that "everyone thinks it's so smart" while saying squat to counter that.

I can only speak for myself, but as a guy who utterly hates fanservicy shots, I thought Bayonetta would not be my cup of tea. But turns out it was done really well and tastefully imho, and I was too busy to look at Bayo's rear end because my own rear end was properly slammed and handed to me by the game. Similarly, when I started MGS V, I joked how much I was looking forward to spending 60ish hours observing BB's glutes. But nope, after about half an hour the character became an extension of myself and I hardly even noticed he was there. Which is, incidentally, why I don't get the point of "sexy mods" - no matter how horny you are, after awhile your mind just sort of filters this stuff out.

That is not to say that there is no pandering. And yes, I absolutely agree there should be variety to men and women's types of physique in all kinds of media, video games included. But I also agree with Archer666 that there is a lot of overreaction to this kind of stuff.

The situation's definitely improving. Baby steps.
