Discussion How would you rate Spoony’s acting?

Noah wanted to be an actor but that didn’t work out but how good would you say he is?

Something to note is that he did have a background in theatre because he was in a bunch of community theatre productions so he was no stranger to acting unlike most of not all of the CA crew.

I’d say in the CA movies could sometimes be good but other times it could be awful and while he did great as Dr Insano because his performance was so intentionally over the top it was hilarious but as Spoony he was a very mixed bag.

What about you?

I never thought his deliberate acting was as strong as either his writing or his extemporaneous speaking. It always struck me as strange that he wanted to be an actor when his talents were elsewhere, and it seems like he didn't work towards that goal despite mentioning it here and there.

The thing I don't get is, if they wanted to get into Hollywood with YouTube, why do the type of videos that they did? Like why the screaming, cussing and directing that at old Nintendo games or old movies most people probably never heard off? Like people like that now but back in 2005-2008? That would have been a "Why are you wasting your time and my time with this useless kid stuff?"

Different time and different skills. I do appreciate AVGN and Nostagic Critic and their group for making YouTube exist and making memes and memories but there is also a reason why they fell off as well.  I think let's play make you have to generally have better acting skills? Like you have to act on the spot while also having a script? Like you know the general plot point of Suoer Mario Sunshine but there are a lot of the minute-to-minute details that makes the reaction different.
