Just a wild guess, but could you be a TGWTG fanboy?

Reading back on this topic of the Nostalgia Critic and Channel Awesome I don't agree that there was a sharp decline in quality because most of the video contributors are just as annoying then as they are now. I think that most of the better reviewers have fallen off the face of the earth but shows like Angry Joe and Epic Failure have never been good in my own opinion. However shows are degrading and shifting focus.

Benzaie is now apparently now a gaming journalist rather than the loveable screwball French GYMDK who makes entertaining reviews by genuine humor and really bad costumes.

The Spoony Expiriment is now shifting all of its focus on Let's Play and covering TNA Wrestling and his droning video blogs. Horrible.

Bennett is now focusing on his boring game reviews while Fanfiction Theater is no longer being produced.

Linkara started out good but now he is just the Critic of comic books and has even resorted to performing skits at the end.

I am also dissatisfied with the site opening the floodgates so you have to dig through a mountain of nobodies to find a series you have grown fond of watching.

Why is there so much hating on tgwtg on these forums? is it because he has more talent in his little finger than you have in this whole site?

I think that tgwtg is awesome. he is funny and entertaining which boring written reviews are not.

you think that tgwtg is annoying but the videos you support are all boring. your two partner sites have videos of mono tone people talking into a camera liek i am watching CSPAN. snooze! and there are no videos here but some dumb anime tributes and a 5 second video that is a rip off of tgwtg!

and there ar e lots of good reviewers on tgwtg liek spoony and nostalgia chick. and ther are lots of videos to watch evry day so it is never old news.

wow a TGWG fan-boy fail post. welcome to the site Tyger.

If you actually read the post (I know it can be hard for some people) you will find that it is more of a hate towards the crap that has been put out lately of their videos rather than them focusing on quality. so in order to find that gem of the day you have to waste half your day trying to find it. no one bothers to check themselves to make better because they are all too busy kissing each others ass. I have watched a couple of TGWG and spooney's videos. to me they are boring (or in spooney's case cant tell his head from his ass) and they are just a video to hear themselves speak.

if people want to see videos of reviews they will watch G4 or Roger and Asshat because they have the budget to do the quality. if they want to read what people really think they go to off the wall sites that hope to get mainstream.

I should have Zimes re-write our MISSION STATEMENT... If we had one...

That is exactly why I dropped TGWTG like a handful of shit: Wading through their site is like wading in a cesspool. If I want to find something worth watching, I spend HOURS watching videos that are just nerds in their basements thinking that they deserve some sort of recognition because they are doing exactly the same thing that everyone else is doing, and that is mimicking the Angry Video Game Nerd. There is ZERO original thought in 90% of their videos, and within that remaining 10%, only a fraction of those people have any clue what they are talking about, or can convey their opinions without being god-awfully ANNOYING. I don't want to watch a bunch of basement hermits rambling about anime while rehashing Animaniacs jokes like they are some sort of 3D LooneyTunes character.

Even worse are people like ROBERT MILLION (yeah, I'm using Frenchy's real name) whose gimmick is a LambChops sock puppet that regurgitates everything he says because only that hand-held cum-rag agrees with him. :evil: And then when, say, a site like ours rips him apart he not only fails at defending himself (because he can't) but he goes on an ego trip because apparently outside of his fantasy world people think that he's BAT-SHIT-LOCO (Thanks for the laughs, Rob.)

Does that give you an idea of what kind of 'talent' exists on TGWTG?

As for us, we call things like they are. If there is something underground that we think should be promoted, we will promote it. If we encounter something that SUCKS, we vent about it by ripping it apart for the masses.

We don't play the G4 or IGN game by testing our gag-reflexes on developer cocks while shoving Benjamins up our own asses in self-congratulations. We are an underground voice that is progressively gaining momentum.

Oh god... Just what we need is another Robert Million to come along and call us all homophobes.

Guess who's getting featured in Fanboy Idiocy of the Month in my next review!

As a an expert in Fanboyology, your reasoning (or lack of it) falls with the typical traits: "you're just jealous because they are better than you." How about the criticism in the site's obvious drop in fucking quality? If you want to see what we mean, re-read the whole section on our rants. Another trait is, to be petty for a second, the lack in basic grammatical/spelling abilities. A third, more tragic trait, however, is the lack of reading anything that does not favor your argument. We also said that we were making this thread with the purpose of giving constructive criticisms to TGWTG.

Also... can you tell me why I'm boring so I can improve? Again, provide a valid argument that's more than "you're a poopiehead", and I'll listen.

I saw an interesting trend while reading this topic: All of the TGWTG disliking quickly followed a herd mentality after LaughingMan commented that their quality of work was dwindling and the end result was almost a angry mob mentality. I was surprised to see a few TGWTG ex? members really hating what has happened to that site's quality . Is this what you all think?

I don't know, for me he's just been getting more annoying and unwatchably boring with every video he makes. Other contributors certainly don't help since they all use the same damn format or jokes as Critic and Chick (arguing with each other in videos, Doug's various gags like "BIG LIPPED ALLIGATOR MOMENT" or "I'VE BEEN FROZEN TODAY", etc), and just a serious decline in quality with the likes of Distressed Watcher. Nothing to do with my stuff being rejected because I never signed up to be picked up :P.

Same feelings here. His early stuff like the Batman and Robin review were pretty good, and the first cross-over with AVGN on the Bebe's Kids video game review were funny, but now everything he and all of his co-horts say drives me crazy. The jokes are getting increasingly stupid, annoying, and monotonous. BIGLIPPEDALIGATORMOMENT was NEVER funny.

One thing that hooked me was his 5 Second Movies, which he never does anymore. Now it's always the stupid-ass videos like LittleMissGamer, Lee Is Still Gaming, Linkara, AngryJoe and MarzGurl who are taking up the slack (if they post at all), and of course they run the Critic's jokes into the dirt. Even Spoony ripped off the "I was frozen today" joke. GAG!

PLUS almost all of the decent contributors never contribute videos anymore (basically just Benzaie and Spoony).

It is also my belief that the only thing that ever made TGWTG.com successful was the feud with the Angry Video Game Nerd. If it wasn't for that shoot to fame, there wouldn't be anyone watching him. Including myself.

All in all, either I'm outgrowing him, or his work is getting increasingly more juvenile and lame.

And ChickWiththeGoggles was WAAAY hotter than The Nostalgia Chick. Fuck anyone who says differently.

I find Kenny Farino and LaughingMan's above comments perfectly justifiable and rational.
