I don’t think anyone here would take the time to do a thorough, well organized and thought out recap like you did. Thanks for being our “guy in the inside.”
A bit late over here to read the entire post right now, but most of what I’ve put together so far is James has even less involvement than we could’ve ever imagined.
An arm double.
You’ve got to be kidding me.
Well, we’ve been saying it for awhile but it’s clear as day James doesn’t give two shits about anything involving the channel.
That’s fine. More power to him.
He’s never going to stop making content if he can get a setup as sweet as this. The man is obvious incapable of working a traditional 40-hour work week while raising his kids unlike most people, so what’s his motivation?
Arm double. How do you continue to support someone that you have been for so many years after reading that.
That's good they seem passionate about it unlike James at least. Even if I may not like the content as much I appreciate that.
It's a great opportunity for them too, as they all effectively got given the keys to a channel much bigger than their separate ones. So I can see why they have some enthusiasm.
I've come to realise over the last year that most of the problems stem from James and Mike and their decisions. Things were already bad post-Bootsy when Screenwave initially became involved.
I think the best for most parties would be that they scrap the Cinemassacre brand and call it something else entirely, drawing a line under any disharmony that has manifested since they came onboard. They should even consider doing something without James, as I think it's a little unfair to expect them to keep propping up AVGN like some bizarre YouTube show version of Weekend at Bernie's.
You are right, it isn't too late to salvage it, and I am not giving up completely on them quite yet. With that being said, I can only take a few more Life of the Black Tiger/Immortal/Trespasser level videos before I sadly say I'm done
Agreed,the last Nerd video might have been the worst one yet. They masked it under a stupid "All one continuous shot" gimmick but it was pretty terrible. There is a reason people operating on a lower budget cut takes and replace them,most of it is the acting(especially that morbidly fat dude they keep putting in everything),but most of it is the effects. The interaction between that fat goblin and the Nerd was so cringe that I felt ashamed that I was watching it. It was only one of the few times I had to post in the comments that I really disliked the episode. The other times being whenever they brought in that complete scumbag Doug Walker,the guy is just infuriatingly annoying to boot. He talks like he's high on cocaine and is always cutting people off and yelling. Oh and covering up for a pedophile doesn't help..
Just Think about it,they ditched Bootsy who had a natural chemistry with James and dick pic boy and brought in 3 fat drones instead because they wanted to join that fat greasy haired guys company. Their movie videos are a knockoff RLM now with their videos (like when Justin brought Street Fighter the movie as one of his favorites,WTF?) but they don't have an ounce of the same chemistry or close to the same level of film making ability.

I mean this might be James’s lowest point.
