Robert Denby posted:Holy poo poo that was painful. The fast-forward bit seemed entirely warranted. Also, I'm honestly curious, but why did you watch "Las Vegas Bloodbath"? A sketch placed at one side of the review where it can be easily avoided by those that aren't interested in them, which flows into the review itself rather than disrupting it? If one must use sketches in a review, this is how it needs to be done. deepshock fucked around with this message at May 7, 2011 around 15:05 |

 Anyone else notice how incredibly flattering all of HopeWithinChaos' title cards are? They all make it look like he only has a slight weight problem instead of being morbidly obese. But overall aren't the title cards used by Channel Awesome pretty much unnecessary?

Except maybe the hair, and even then Tubby Bond's hair actually looks nice. I can understand this if the guy was just kind of chubby, but he's loving huge. And then you've got AVGN's title cards, which almost always make him look uglier than he actually is.

Ronnie posted:Holy poo poo, I don't watch his show so the last I can recall seeing of him was the Team Brawl, and that was bad enough but I'm sure that photo is worse. It's the epitome and validation of why our parents/teachers/etc complained so often about us Millennials and our combined game playing and TV habits in the 90s. If he doesn't watch it (and his weight) he's going to be the first of the CA crew to die a preventable death.

Have Doug and Rob just enforced that the output isn't lovely enough and needs more skits?

I also can't believe I missed the irony of Katy Perry doing a song called 'Firework', which he pointed out what a bad idea that was for her. Personally I hate Firework more just because I hear it CONSTANTLY. Not sure why, as I don't even listen to pop radio. It just seems to be on a lot in malls and stores I guess.

Have Doug and Rob just enforced that the output isn't lovely enough and needs more skits? They want to stop, but Linkara just looks like he's having so much fun! Really, though, the reason you see so many skits is because deep down a lot of these internet critics are aspiring filmmakers. They're working in a medium with no hard and fast rules so a lot of them take the space to experiment a little. Ultimately, I have a hard time blaming them because I am an aspiring filmmaker myself. I could say that I'm above it, but I know in my heart that if I had an internet review show going, about 10-15 episodes in I'd probably be doing the exact same loving thing.

It also helps that RLM's skits tend to last 15-45 seconds, not be 5 minutes long with a bunch of dumb continuity between reviews. Case in point: When RLM was doing the Revenge of the Sith review, they realized the skit at the end was going to ruin it, so they just made a short film instead!
