I can't wait to see him become irrelevant and not famous anymore and be totally hosed for job possibilities because there's this ten year gap of "I made videos on the internet!"

Also, I used to like Spoony's videos before he went insane.

Does turning into the laziest rear end in a top hat on the internet count as going insane?

Because it's extremely easy to criticize, and takes almost no talent. When your only real skill is taking apart what other people make it's no surprise you suck at creating.

actually he sucks and is stupid

I am judging him according to an extremely low standard. I mean, Linkara got mad with Superman: At Earth's End because the comic features a group of Nazis who make twin clones of Hitler with the original's exact personality and, when another character expresses disbelief, respond "Don't you know anything about science?" In his review, he goes on a whole rant about how cloning doesn't work that way. Like no poo poo, everybody with a eight-grade education knows that! It's comic book science, it's not supposed to be accurate to the real world! And when Tom Veitch makes a joke about comic book science, Linkara completely fails to get it. When a reviewer can't understand things like "genre conventions" and "jokes," he makes every other reviewer look like a goddamn genius.

They all want to be film makers, but they're not good at it. Skits are how they can pretend to make films and have people still watch them.

I agree, but at least with avgn he's been really cutting down on that poo poo. His last like 20-30 reviews have been very straight to the point.

I think with NC it's been trending in the opposite direction but it's been a long time since I've watched him because he is terrible to his core

Worse than the skits is the dumb crossover poo poo where we get two nerds awkwardly reading lines off a camera instead of one

The reason he got heavy on the skits is because his comedy show or whatever failed. So instead of just firing the actors I guess he adopted them or something :shrug:

Very early on his stuff had zero sketches and no lovely introduction song, which was novel for most reviewers who loved to had terrible intros.

Counterpoint: Bennett actually knows how to make an argument and a compelling video from time to time, when he's not being a complete masochist watching garbage cartoons.
