Heres the high score of shame for the last thread. drat, I've only been on SA for less than a year and posted enough to reach the top 20 :stare: I blame me being bored in quarantine.



I can't believe I've posted in that thread so.much despite creating nothing and barely venturing out to check out new Youtubers.

Anyway, I feel like Townsends should be in the OP but ive only watched like 3 of his videos and I'm not quite sure what his main focus is. Is it just old timey food?

One of the issues this thread might be having is that barely any movies are coming out, meaning there's a lot less to talk about, so we just keep going back to the same wells.

Hey, speaking of that, what do you think is going to be the next Disney movie to be remade in live action and less than the animated version and do the princess/female lead dirty next?

Is it possible to do a worse job of it than Mulan and Aladdin? How could this be achieved?

He was the guy with the Mario avatar whose gimmick was that he worships the ground Moviebob walks on and would not tolerate seeing his idol slighted in any way. The other one you’re thinking of is probably Bravest of the Lamps, who was just a massive contrarian rear end in a top hat until it turned out he’d been e-stalking someone, following them to different forums to harass them.

Nah, it definitely wasn't BotL, it was someone else. But the thread keeps getting people like that so I totally lost track of who.

Wasn’t breadtube just wishful thinking by internet posters writing erotic friendfiction about their favorite youtube channels? It’s true insofar as people know each other and collaborate, plus have some prominent self-declared enemies in common, but I don’t think it was ever a branding thing or some kind of deliberate effort, though I don’t really follow many of the more narrowly political communists/anarchists who don’t do scripts or jokes.

I always just took it as like a descriptor for people who make similar good stuff. Asking for like collaborations or shootouts or anything beyond 'If you like Shaun's videos you might also enjoy Dan Olson or Lindsay Ellis' videos too' wasn't something I was ever expecting personally.

It became a running joke with my friends that the only thing I was looking for in a character was that they wore pants because we played a string of games (mostly f2p mmos and poo poo) where I kept finding characters I liked but then none of the outfit choices gave them pants, so now pants is an actual thing I look for in a character to play.

Augh, god I hope that looks better in motion because it's so bland and colorless here. It's like we're back in 2009 with the endless release of brown military shooters again!

I never saw Justice League because my standards are only oh so slightly too high to watch that instead of 19 of the 23 Marvel movies, same reason I never got around to seeing Suicide Squad but the main villain being named Steppenwolf still trips me up because my only familiarity with that name is from the old Steppenwolf: The X-Creatures Project flash games.

Arcsquad12 posted:

A defense that's also used is that "it was like that back then" which is a pretty fundamental misunderstanding of how ancient societies worked. They had laws. Lots of people hung up on the Viking craze are all about the raping and pillaging but the British Isles had pretty extreme laws against assaulting women even when the Danelaw covered most of the east coast with Danish settlers. Sexual violence obviously happens all the loving time and it's terrible but it's not a valid defense to put it in your story "because that's what it was like back then" since it was considered just as heinous back then as it is now. It's hack writing to either make you sympathetic to a female character in lieu of giving her actual character, or it's an attempt to make an edgy story about a lawless world that doesn't represent the reality you're ostensibly drawing inspiration from.

Also I had to learn that yeah, food existed in the past, it wasn't all gruel and hard stone bread or people just not knowing what the gently caress they were doing. Like, I knew that sandwiches and lobster were thought of as low class food and black slaves in America made fried chicken because they were given garbage to start with but I never really thought about it beyond that.

Thanks Townsends!

Also, I feel like it's not just a Super Bad joke, but everyone was drawing dicks on the whiteboard and on the bathroom stalls all the time in Middle and High School when I was going so I can absolutely see that being wrapping paper the second someone brought up vagina wrapping paper.

yea it's not like it was ever some deep 'leftist' critique like 'Clinton's welfare reform policy hurts the poor and working class while shifting the money to wealthy technocrats...waka waka!!!!!' but 'lol clinton like burger' or 'al gore boring' was, like, a common joke.

It never really 'got political' but it sounds like this version doesn't either. It just references people in popular culture? Like 'lol trump look like big dumb ogre' isn't political satire it's just...a joke about what a big turd trump looks like.

Okay. I was trying to make a joke about 'Welp, looks like I have no other option but to go and watch all of both the Animaniacs shows to figure out if they liked to throw jabs at political figures in the past or not, I have no other option left'
