Valsuelm Posted May 19, 2016 Posted May 19, 2016 I believe Angry Video Game Nerd is the name of his channel. Perhaps he has more than one channel, but the name of this one is 'Cinemassacre'.
aluminiumtrioxid Posted May 19, 2016 Posted May 19, 2016 I believe Angry Video Game Nerd is the name of his channel. How... original. "Lulz is not the highest aspiration of art and mankind, no matter what the Encyclopedia Dramatica says."
HoonDing Posted May 19, 2016 Posted May 19, 2016 Never heard of him. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
Orogun01 Posted May 20, 2016 Posted May 20, 2016 He's fine to not be interested in it. Though while looking up what this crap is about did come across one rather mean tweet https://twitter.com/thelindsayellis/status/732599073723850752 One of the replies near the top. I had to look her up as i had no idea on the context. Is it this perhaps? http://namebrandlindsay.com/2011/06/22/ethical-storytelling-or-why-i-did-it/ She basically had an abortion in order to create a documentary about abortion. Oh wow, now that tweet makes sense, pretty brutal. As I understand it, she made a documentary about abortion because she had decided to have an abortion and noticed that none of the documentaries that exist about the topic ever seemed to be from the perspective of someone who'd made that decision. Sorry to derail the thread, Ame, who's the the new avatar? She looks like a more attractive version of Maisie Williams. I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"* *If you can't tell, it's you.
Nonek Posted May 20, 2016 Posted May 20, 2016 Reminds me, I recently watched the original movie with the kids (to great response I might add,) but I seem to remember one part being a little different: That being the chair/hand possession scene with the lovely Ms Weaver, as I remember that scene went on for a while longer and the chair/hands were on rather first name terms with the actress so to speak. In this cut the scene seemed very truncated, am I (or my hormones) misremembering? I'm similarly not impressed by the trailers, but then again I gave up in the franchise after the second film with young Dragonslayer and the chap from Die Hard. Quite an experience to live in misery isn't it? That's what it is to be married with children.I've seen things you people can't even imagine. Pearly Kings glittering on the Elephant and Castle, Morris Men dancing 'til the last light of midsummer. I watched Druid fires burning in the ruins of Stonehenge, and Yorkshiremen gurning for prizes. All these things will be lost in time, like alopecia on a skinhead. Time for tiffin. Tea for the teapot!
Hurlshort Posted May 20, 2016 Posted May 20, 2016 (edited) I believe Angry Video Game Nerd is the name of his channel. Perhaps he has more than one channel, but the name of this one is 'Cinemassacre'. If you look at his videos, many of them are titled "The Angry Video Game Nerd". Cinemassacre would be his account name. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2B009153AC977F90 I guess you could call it the name of his video series. Edited May 20, 2016 by Hurlshot
Meshugger Posted May 20, 2016 Author Posted May 20, 2016 The guy is like Tom Petty, he won't back down. He did say in his previous video that he was going to make this one. As for the thread issue.... I don't see any anger from the guy, nor is he talking about a video game. The new Ghostbusters represents pretty much everything that is wrong in Hollywood this last decade or two. Twitter is for morons or those that would lead them somewhere. I believe Angry Video Game Nerd is the name of his channel. I believe Angry Video Game Nerd is the name of his channel. How... original. Never heard of him. Now i feel a bit embaressed...I created this thread on the assumption that you guys knew who he was. He's Angry Video Game Nerd, he is the original "angry" video game reviewer, starting back in 2004. His reviews get 1-2 million views to this day. Cinemassacre is his movie reviews that he started later. Just be sure, is this completely new to you guys?

Zoraptor Posted May 20, 2016 Posted May 20, 2016 Eh? Angry Joe is the original angry video game reviewer- I remember him reviewing some of the earliest RPGs ever released, like Fallout 3. I really doubt there was anyone doing that prior to him. 3
Fighter Posted May 20, 2016 Posted May 20, 2016 I didn't think there was anyone who's into games and didn't know AVGN. He even made a movie from community donations. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2123146/?ref_=nv_sr_1
Blarghagh Posted May 20, 2016 Posted May 20, 2016 Naw man, Angry Joe didn't start until like 2008. Angry Video Game Nerd beat him to it by years. I'm as surprised as Meshugger at the amount of people who don't know him. I've had his intro-tune in my head for years.
Fighter Posted May 20, 2016 Posted May 20, 2016 He isn't only the original 'angry' reviewer but one of or the original 'nostalgia' reviewers.
Valsuelm Posted May 20, 2016 Posted May 20, 2016 (edited) Just be sure, is this completely new to you guys? If I'd seen it before I'd forgotten about it as I didn't think it worth remembering (and I probably got no further than ~30 seconds before either). However, I have played and beaten Zelda II of course, long ago when the NES was the thing and the SNES didn't exist yet. Zelda I was the reason I saved up and bought a NES (had to have it after playing it at a friend's house), and Ocarina of Time was the reason I bought a N64 (haven't bought a nintendo system since). A Link to the Past is the best Zelda, though not the only reason I bought a SNES (so many great games for the SNES). Anon. I've never seen a good video game reviewer out there on youtube. One may exist, under a rock somewhere, but I'm unaware of them if they do. The last time I read a good video game review was near ten years ago, and it was about Mask of the Betrayer. At that time it was the first good review of a game I'd seen in years (I forget at this point where I saw the review), and was a one off by the author for the most part. It was objective, didn't spoil stuff, was written intelligently, wasn't fanboyish, and told me some things I didn't know. The vast majority of video game reviewers since the mid/late 90s have their tongue up the butt of some or all of the game companies they review. This is true of most movie reviewers too, as well as reviewers of products from all sorts of industries. There's an inherent corruption that generally happens when reviewers of X become popular. They tend to get in with the makers of X so they can have better access to product X and ultimately become like 'Consumer Reports': much more advertisement than objective review. It's similar to the problem that plagues mainstream journalism. Also, Angry Joe is a wussieboy who tongues butts, balls, and reaches around for at least some of the companies who make the games he reviews. I have seen him a couple times because people kept linking him on another forum I once frequented some years back. All that said, I do generally agree with AVGN's take on the new 'Ghostbusters', but I didn't learn anything by watching him, nor did he offer an interesting alternative perspective, so I see little reason to watch him in the future. That's my quick review of all of this reviewer stuff. Edited May 20, 2016 by Valsuelm

Lexx Posted May 20, 2016 Posted May 20, 2016 What I don't like in any of these movies is that the black people are always angry and shouting. And I don't know why they are always angry and shouting. Can't they just chill. "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."
Meshugger Posted May 20, 2016 Author Posted May 20, 2016 Youtube channels are a young person's game. Most of us old farts are too busy rewinding our cassettes. What, no 8-track? pffft.

Fighter Posted May 20, 2016 Posted May 20, 2016 (edited) One good thing from this is how well it filters who the unsalvageable **** are. We have a "SJW" definition thread here. Well if you throw a hissy fit and reach straight for the mysoggyknees over a guy who literally says nothing at all about gender politics you're an SJW. It is the quintessential example of going after someone without demonstrable cause and seeing a problem where no evidence exists to support such interpretation.
