Wrong Turn is Ridiculous – Talking About Tapes – Tony from Hack the Movies
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xePS5z70EU
Guest host. It’s some woman who appeared in a bikini in a few videos with Tony and/or Tony’s co-host on this thing. Is his name Nate? Newt? Oh yeah. It’s in the description. Newt. I think that she’s mostly a friend or “friend” of Newt’s. She had/has a website where she claims to be a model and I’ll just leave that comment there.
So it starts with a preview of the upcoming fun to be had. This woman is so fucking annoying. At least in this preview. “Why did you do that to yourself?” in such a disingenuous fashion. So I’m excited to watch this. How annoying can a person possibly be? Stay tuned to find out!
I never heard of this movie, by the way. Let me look this up. It looks like it might be a horror movie. Oh fuck. Yeah. It’s fucking trash. Why does he “review” these trash movies?
I don’t want to see anything that’s remotely popular. I want to see reviews of classic yet forgotten films from the 1940s to the 1970s. Fuck this popular culture bullshit. I don’t give a fuck about your “the 90s”. This film is from the early 2000s but most of his videos are about films from the 1990s so my point stands. This fucking throw away, trash culture. I don’t fucking care.
Is there a big market for obscure films from the golden age of cinema? Maybe not. But he’s not exactly setting the world on fire with these “the 90s” movie reviews. So forget about popularity. Focus on QUALITY.
How about a review of Arsenic and Old Lace?
Oh, here’s one:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94mCyGZuEjo
600 views after two years. And this guy seems to be a friend of Dorothy. He’s also annoying. And the vast majority of his reviews are of old horror films. That’s disappointing.
But that’s like the only review of this film on Youtube. So there’s a clear gap in the market. Old films. Of all genres. Not just fucking horror. I’m an adult. I don’t give a fuck about horror films. There’s so much more you can do. Fucking westerns, comedies, musicals, film noir, biblical epics, foreign films. There’s a near endless treasure trove out there waiting to be re-discovered.
Or, we can do some fucking bullshit horror film from the early 2000s that was written, produced, and marketed to children and it’s all done in a cynical attempt to maximise profit. I don’t think that we’re going to get much in the way of artistic merit out of that process.
4:00 – “Ohhhhh baby.”
I don’t even know why she said this. But you know what? I’m done. I don’t give a fuck about this. Any of this. I don’t give a fuck about Newt’s story, that I wasn’t even paying attention to, or whatever Tony is doing, and I certainly don’t give a fuck about this patronising woman with no personality who’s like a pod person. It’s like watching an alien trying to behave like a human being but they only have a slight familiarity with the species.
Actually, let me skip around. I’ll try to find some more “gems” from this woman. If they let her speak. Fortunately, Newt and Tony are constantly going back and forth, which doesn’t give her much opportunity to interject.
This video is an hour, by the way. All of his Talking about Tapes have been about this long of late. It’s way too long. Even if it’s a movie that I’m semi-interested in, I can’t watch all of that. I sure as fuck don’t watch the videos of movies that I’m not interested in.
Yeah, she’s brutal but I’m not going to quote any of this shit. It doesn’t really come across in text. You just have to watch it. And it’s a good thing that I stopped at four minutes. This film is a giant fucking piece of shit. “Oh, here’s the best decapitation” and the like. Fuck off with this low-brow, psychopathic bullshit.

PlayStation 5 Black Edition – Destiny Fomo
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1bPSgGOJjCo
0:00 – “Since a lot of people get triggered by my outfits, I’ve decided to go all out for this one.”
She’s wearing a leather or PVC top of some description that doesn’t really fit. We’re supposed to be jerking off to this. Umm…I’m not going to be doing that.
And who are these people who are “triggered” by her outfits? Who gives a fuck about Madam Fomo? The only people who regularly talk about her are me and Darius Truxton, who does Youtube videos about her. That’s it. Darius Truxton has about 500 subscribers.
0:30 – She starts aggressively shilling for this company who makes the product. It’s just like a replacement case for a PS5. You can change the side plates. Who gives a fuck? But link is in the description if you want to buy this. Madam Fomo REALLY needs that two cents for every click.
3:00 – She demonstrates how “easy” it is to remove the panels from your PS5. As it turns out, it’s not actually all that easy.
3:30 – “I’m actually going to have side by side pictures of the black Playstation 5 and the white Playstation 5 on my Twitter, if you guys want to check that out.”
Then she gives the link.
Why not just put it in the video? Wouldn’t that be more sensible. We’re already watching the video. Why should we go to your Twitter?
Because she relentlessly promotes her various social media shit. And spoiler, there’s no such picture on her Twitter. But there is a weird picture of her naked back.
https://twitter.com/DestinyFomo/status/1360800833827266561
She’s covering her tattoo with some text. She has a tattoo like right below her neck on her back. You also briefly see it in this Youtube video. I assume that her pimp made her get it. It’s like a branding.
4:00 – She has even more trouble removing the other plate. She had to edit this one.
5:15 – Then she takes some “sexy” pictures of her holding the console. Are people really jerking off to this? Well, I suppose the mentally challenged might.
5:45 – “If you’d like to see what’s underneath this outfit, you can check out my OnlyFans.”
No, thanks. And she doesn’t do nudes. So that’s just a lie. She should say, “If you want to see pictures of me with bubbles on my chest while wearing a one piece bathing suit, check out my OnlyFans.”
– “Question are you a cancer or Aries ?”
She’s a cancer alright.

Game Genie Codes for NES Games! – Erin Plays
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WPq-aXAwcf8
She “premiered” this video. Here’s the chat log if anyone is interested. Some emojis are in parentheses. I had to do some formatting and I might have missed something so if somebody is saying something really weird, it’s possibly an emoji.
If you don’t want to read the chat, you’re not missing anything. NOTHING HAPPENS. It’s the banality of evil. So you can just skip to the end of the italics.

—–
NOTHING HAPPENED!
I’m fucking sitting there with the horndogs. You have this one guy talking about the Powerpad video. Obviously has his dick in his hand. Erin just says “lol” a lot. Then the video starts. There are a few codes for maybe three popular games and then the second half of the video is codes for the original Super Mario Bros.
That’s it. That’s the video. It ended abruptly. People couldn’t fucking believe this shit.
Why would she “premiere” this boring as fuck video? This video was awful even by Erin Plays standards.
She starts the fucking video with, “I didn’t own a Game Genie growing up”. No surprises there. I don’t think that she even has one now. I assume that the one that she shows in the video is Mike’s.
And the codes she uses are fucking stupid. They are not remotely interesting. Wow. Batman can jump really high. Batman is a different colour. Change your bullets in Contra to your character sprite. Beat the level immediately. Play with garbled sprites. No clip Link. No clip TMNT. Link jumps high. Speed up Bubble Bobble.
These are fucking shit. She’s showing BROKEN codes. You can’t play with most of these.
Then the rest of the video is Super Mario Bros 1 codes that add extra enemies. WHO CARES?
God, anyone who is at all interested in this shit has already done this shit and far more in depth than what Erin has shown. It’s just unbelievable.
Erin has never seen this shit. So Erin finds it “interesting”. Or at least pretends to for the purposes of making a video. The rest of us saw this shit when we were 8 years old. It no longer holds any appeal.
And that fucking chat. Everybody is just so fucking bored. There were like 60 people in there at the most.
I mean, what the fuck can you say to that video? And she doesn’t even appear on screen, so there’s nothing to jerk off to.
None of the other gamer grrls were there. Not even Mike bothered to show up for this thing.
There are fucking billions of Game Genie codes. THIS is what she found? She spent about ten seconds “researching” this shit.
And the moderators were Jose, NewWaveJunkie, and NINfan. Fucking disgusting. All three of these guys are mentally challenged. Jose has repeatedly asked Erin to visit him in Argentina. He lives with his parents. And NewWaveJunkie is an autistic Lego nerd. I don’t know much about NINfan, to be honest.
It’s fucking trash. She did this “premiere” because lately she’s been complaining about getting low view numbers. She blames it on Youtube not notifying people that she released a video.
No. Youtube is sending the notifications. People aren’t watching because your videos are shit. Just like this one. Maybe work on THAT and you’ll get more views.

Prehistoric Isle (From the SNK 40th Anniversary Collection) – Erin Plays
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9HhxlSVnQo
As an experiment, I sometimes just click through at random spots in Erin’s videos and she’s almost always saying that she doesn’t know what’s going on or she’s complaining about how bad she’s doing in the game. I tried that with this video and yeah, that’s what this is. That’s what all of her videos are like. The streams, anyway. Let me show you what I mean. I’ll just click randomly and type out what she’s saying.
6:15 – “How the fuck did I get that? I got lucky.”
10:30 – “Right? Right when I got the powerup, I died.”
13:45 – “Yeah, motherfucker. Die, bitch. Oh. Instead, I died.”
17:45 – “I was going to say, that’s way too fast. Oh my god. I’m dead.”
22:00 – (she dies) “Oh! I was trying to grab the thing.”
28:30 – “You know what? I’m doing so bad. Oh my god.”
32:30 – “He sounds like a goat. You know those goats that just scream?”
These timestamps were all chosen totally at random. And I didn’t omit any. I went to seven random points in the video, and these were the seven comments that were made.
Do I really want to watch this? It’s just Erin, playing the game, poorly, for the first and last time ever. And she complains about how poorly she’s doing. Why would ANYONE want to watch this?
I mean, I’ll give it a try but I almost never get past the ten minute mark. It’s just fucking relentless stupidity from her.
0:00 – “What games make me rage quit? Well, I was talking about Dark Castle earlier. I’d say that one. That one was probably the most upsetting.”
She’s clearly talking about a stream that she did but I didn’t see it. Is this even a game? I never heard of it and when I DuckDuckGo’d it, the only result is a black and white Macintosh game from 1986. She can’t be talking about that.
But yeah. Erin doesn’t really rage quit. In order to rage quit, you have to actually play games in your spare time. When Erin rage quits, the stream ends. She doesn’t really do that. And if she were to do that, that would be a single instance of rage quitting. She can’t possibly rage quit more than once on any game because she only plays these games once, on stream, for money, and then never again.
Don’t these people watch the fucking streams? They can’t see what’s going on? SHE DOESN’T PLAY GAMES, YOU SIMPLETONS! Put your penis away and start using whatever mental capacity you have to good use.
Oh, Erin is still standing, by the way. It’s been…what…two weeks? Three weeks? Is this just what she’s going to do now? She hasn’t sat down in two or three weeks? At what point do you see a doctor? If this injury is real, she’s a total moron.
Also, she mentioned at the start of the video that she was playing this game during a “variety stream” and decided to dedicate a full stream to it. This stream. Everything has to be done on stream, for money. She’s probably going to make a Youtube video of this later, quite possibly just rehashing footage from the streams.
1:30 – “Look at that. There’s cavemen and they’re jumping. It kind of reminds me of the flea men in Castlevania.”
Oh. Castlevania reference. I never tire of those. Any references to games you haven’t played on stream, for money? Of course not. Such a game doesn’t exist.
1:45 – “I’m not just saying that because of Castlevania, like I live, eat, and breathe those games.”
Oh yeah. You’re hardcore, Erin. You’ve played Castlevania night and day for decades.
Wait. That’s not right. She has NEVER played ANY Castlevania game AT ALL in her spare time. NOT ONCE. But she has played these games on stream, for money. Usually just once. Castlevania III is the only game that she’s played on stream, for money multiple times.
2:45 – She’s talking about the credit system in this game. It’s like a port of an arcade game.
I’m reminded of the time when Erin was playing a game and said, “‘Player 2, press start? What does that mean?” What a “gamer”.
She has absolutely NO IDEA what’s going on in this game, by the way.
4:15 – “That’s interesting, Shishi.”
I wonder what he said. Maybe something about his fondness for anime.
She keeps complaining about how poorly she’s doing and that she needs powerups, et cetera but the game has unlimited continues. It’s an arcade game and as long as you keep putting quarters in, you can get through the game no matter how bad you are. And this version effectively gives you unlimited quarters. So who cares how good or bad she plays? She’s going to get through this.
Maybe this is what she should do. Just play arcade games. As long as the game lets you continue where you left off and there’s unlimited virtual quarters, she’ll be able to get through all of these games. Her list of games that she “beat” would go through the roof.
Wait…maybe she could do something interesting with this quarter idea. She makes like $200/month right? Maybe she could see how far she could get in a game using $200. So 800 continues.
Maybe she should stretch that out for the whole month. She can only play games as long as she has credit and all she gets is the 800 credits. And once she’s out, that’s it. No more streaming for the month.
But as a way to shake down the horndogs for money, she could continue to play if you “subscribe” or “donate” money to her or whatever. So, whatever, if you “donate” $50, that’s another 200 credits that she’ll play for.
And her being shit at the games would work to her advantage here. Because she’d blow through 200 credits in no time. In this fucking dinosaur game that she’s playing, she’s having to put another virtual quarter into this thing every 15 seconds or so. No exaggeration.
So this could lead to either really short streams (good for her wrists) or more profitable streams. And actually when she’s not playing games, she could still stream. Just turn it into a “just chatting” stream. Or maybe look through old catalogues or Mike’s Nintendo Power collection.
I’m full of great ideas but it’s just the same old shit with Erin every fucking video. “I’ve never played this before!” and then the usual abysmal gameplay and commentary about “cute” enemies and whatnot. How about shaking things up and doing something fucking different? Has what you’re doing worked so far?
8:30 – “Look at this! This is totally like Castlevania.”
In what respect? Do you mean because it has enemies that kind of look like bats? Oh. I get it. Yes, Castlevania is the only game ever made that had bat enemies. At least out of the ones that you’ve played.
9:30 – “Erin’s the Red Baron? I thought that Snoopy was the Red Baron. I can’t replace Snoopy.”
I suspect that Erin doesn’t know that the Red Baron was a real person. I don’t claim to be a Manfred von Richthofen historian by any means but I at least knew that it was a real person and I knew that he was from World War I.
And Snoopy wasn’t the fucking Red Baron. He fought against the Red Baron. The Red Baron was a German fighter pilot.
When was Charles Schultz born? 1922. So he doesn’t have any memories of WWI but he was of an era where his parents or the parents of his peers would have fought in WWI. So these are the sort of references that he made.
Now these references are totally lost. Erin thinks that beloved American cartoon dog Snoopy portrayed a German WWI pilot. And what about Red Baron pizza? Do they still make that? It seems so. But I remember the commercials. The character’s German heritage is intentionally downplayed. It’s suggested that he’s American.
Of course, Schroeder was named after Christa Schroeder, one of Hitler’s personal secretaries. And Lucy’s psychiatrist practice was loosely based on the life of Josef Mengele. That comic strip was just full of Teutonic propaganda by Charles Schultz, who obviously was of German heritage.
10:00 – She keeps dying. And you know what I just noticed? She hasn’t used the bombs ONCE. This game has bombs, right? Like just about every “schmup” ever made? Let me check a competent playthrough.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAF3j-643N8
Actually, there don’t seem to be. But what a palette cleanser that video is. Watching somebody who’s actually good at the game. Maybe too good. I often wonder if these World of Longplays videos are tool-assisted.
Anyway, fuck Erin. I’m not going back to that trash video.

You Know What’s BS!? Bed Sheets – Cinemassacre

Jimmy “Rainmain” Rolfe reads a script where he pretends that his bedsheets don’t fit on his bed. Here’s the simple solution to that problem: get sheets that fit your bed.
I mean…a lot of the comments say, “This has never happened to me.” I won’t go that far. When I was a kid, I remember this sometimes happening. Rarely. But it happened. It’s because the sheets weren’t the right size. They might have shrunk a little.
But as an adult? No. Never happened. Get sheets that fit. Problem solved. No need to staple them to your bed like some kind of mental defective.
For a long time, I only had a futon. So when my girlfriend would sleep over she would say, “Can you put a sheet on?” Why would I put a sheet on? The futon has covers. I wash the covers. It’s not like a mattress that can’t be washed. The covers are effectively the sheets. But whatever, I’d put a sheet on.
So at the end of this two and a half minute video, James reads an extended diatribe about alien abductions or something. It’s fucking idiotic and has nothing to do with the topic. But the person who wrote this trash was trying to pad things out. Because how much can you really say about this topic?
And it was just fucking stock footage or stolen footage from the Simpsons and various movies. This is fucking lazy in the extreme. Why release content that you know is bad?
I suppose that this is the ultimate question for all of these gamer grrls. They must know that these videos are bad. Not everything, of course. I’m sure that Pelvic Gamer thinks that her videos are good. She talks about all of the effort that she puts into them and they are competent, I guess. They’re just boring as fuck. At least to me.
Same with Pam aka CannotBeEntertaining. Her videos are competent. I guess. But boring as fuck.
Bobdunga puts effort into her videos too and some of them are okay.
But take somebody like Retro Ali where she does these “reaction” videos. She can’t possibly think that those are good on any level. But she still releases them. Why? Why release “content” that you know is complete trash?
Same with Erin. There is no way on earth that she thinks that her lazy as fuck videos where she plays a game for the first and last time ever are any good. It’s impossible. So why release the video?
I’ve written stuff that I didn’t think was very good. So I delete it, rather than send it. Why waste people’s time? And why de-value your “content”?
But Cinemassacre Inc and Erin and Retro Ali will release this trash just so that they can say, “I released something.” It might be complete dog shit but it’s something. It’s free. If you don’t like it, don’t watch it.
That’s exactly what people do when you release trash. They stop watching.
How hard can it possibly be to write a You Know What’s Bee Ess episode? Andy Rooney cranked this shit out every week for like 50 years. Let me think of a good bee ess topic. Little annoyances in life…oh, I got one. People who walk on the wrong side of the pavement (or “sidewalk”).
You know what’s bee ess? People who don’t walk on the right. There’s an unwritten rule that about 90% of the population seems to understand: walk on the right. But there’s that 10% who ruin it for the rest of us. They refuse to walk on the right. Then it becomes a game of chicken. Who’s going to move first? You’re in the right but this idiot doesn’t seem to be moving. They’re convinced that walking on the left is what people should do.
And it’s even worse in crowds. You end up having to zig zag through people because of this selfish oaf who apparently never learned this social rule.
And nine times out of ten it’s a woman. Why can’t they just move? They can see that I’m walking on the right. They can see that everybody behind me is walking on the right. But they want everybody to move out of the way to accommodate them. Now that’s bee ess.
There’s your video. Just steal some “hilarious” footage of people walking in movies or tv shows. Jimmy Rolfe can appear with or without the bee ess man mask.
We can all identify with this. And it could lead to discussion. “What are you talking about? There isn’t a right side.” Maybe some people would argue that the left side is the correct side.
Instead, we got, “You know what’s bee ess? Being too fucking retarded to buy bedsheets that fit my bed. Oh, and here’s some totally unrelated and unfunny shit about aliens.” Up your game, Screenwave.

Valheim – First time playing – Mike Matei
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_H-Ds7q3xtk
I haven’t time-stamped anything so you’ll just have to take my word on things. Or you can watch the entire 12 hour stream and see for yourself.
So Mike is playing this game called Valheim. It’s one of these survival multiplayer games like Rust or whatever. There are loads of these kind of games.
You can play with up to ten people. So what does Mike do? “I’m playing with my friend Duo.”
This is the guy who makes the emojis for Mike. And I think for Erin. And this guy has apparently “donated” A LOT of money to Erin. Oh, he also designed those HORRENDOUS t-shirts for Erin. I don’t think that he gets paid for any of his work. He’s just Mike’s bitch. And of course Erin takes advantage. It’s the one thing that she’s good at: taking advantage of people.
It’s just so fucking pathetic. Why would he play a game that’s intended for at least…let’s say four people…with his bitch Duo? GET MORE PEOPLE. Don’t you know anyone else? You couldn’t get Erin to play? Or any of the Screenwave people? Or people you know OUTSIDE of Cinemassacre (if anyone)?
Failing all of that, GET PEOPLE FROM THE CHAT TO PLAY. Isn’t this fucking obvious? It would be a nice “reward” for the autistic losers in the chat who have “donated” so much money to you. He can’t be bothered.
So in this stream, Mike goes out and hunts monsters and shit (poorly) while his bitch Duo does all of the bitch work back at home (building structures and whatever). Duo is MUCH better at the game than Mike. Mike doesn’t know shit.
There’s a point where Duo is trying to teach Mike how to make carrot soup. This increases your maximum health. And Mike keeps saying, “I don’t want to do this. You cook the soup.” And Duo is trying to explain that he wants to teach Mike how to do it in case he ever has to do it by himself. Mike is just a giant asshole to him. He attempts to do it, can’t figure it out, and throws the ingredients down and tells Duo to do it himself. Then he runs off to the forest to (poorly) fight against monsters.
Mike can’t even master basic inventory management. There are numerous times in the games where he’s loaded with too much shit but he just keeps going out and collecting more shit. Then he doesn’t understand why he can’t pick anything else up. He’s carrying like 150 pounds of wood and rocks (easy to obtain items) and doesn’t understand what the problem is. He never manages to see the “max weight” section. He doesn’t understand that wood and rocks weigh a lot. So he ends up throwing valuable, light-weight stuff out to make room for more wood and rocks or whatever.
There are treasure chests in the game. Mike doesn’t open them. He’s not interested. Or when he does open them he says, “Well, this is just gold” and leaves it there. There’s like fucking gold and gems in these treasure chests and he just leaves them. He wants to make more room for wood and rocks, I guess.
Only when he gets the bright idea that he wants to make a Scrooge McDuck money pit does he decide to start collecting gold. And he makes his bitch Duo divide the gold into like 1 gold pieces so that visually it looks like more. Like the icon for 1 gold looks the same as the icon for 100 gold. And Mike wants to make this big stupid Scrooge McDuck money pit.
Bitch Duo hesitantly obliges but he gives up eventually. It’s just so fucking stupid. Duo wants to play the game like a normal human being and Mike is just doing this stupid shit.
There was a similar incident earlier in the stream where Mike wanted to label everything as “Bat” whatever. Like in Batman how there’s the “Bat Pole” and “Bat Phone” and that sort of shit. So bitch Duo agrees to do that. He re-does like 30 signs so that they have the “Bat” prefix in front of them. So “Bat Gold”, “Bat Weapons”, “Bat Wood”, whatever. He’s re-labelling all of the chests that he made for the storage room that he also made.
Another noob problem that Mike has is his inability to close doors. You have to keep the doors to your base closed or else monsters can get in.
So at one point, monsters get in. And bitch Duo goes out to fight them. And bitch Duo keeps saying, “WE’RE UNDER ATTACK! MIKE! WE’RE UNDER ATTACK! I CAN USE SOME HELP!” Shit like this. And all the while, Mike is just (poorly) organising his stuff by putting them in the appropriately-labelled chests. And as he’s doing this, for like five minutes while bitch Duo is fighting the swarm of enemies, he says something like, “I can just do this later. This is boring. I should be fighting monsters or something” completely unaware that that’s what he should have been doing for the past five minutes.
So then bitch Duo gets killed by the monsters and when Mike realises this he says something like, “What? We’re under attack? Why didn’t you say anything?” And this all happened because Mike is too much of an idiot to close the fucking door.
How can he be this bad at these games? Hasn’t he played these sort of games before? He keeps saying that it’s similar to some Zelda game. So he must have played that game. Is it similar? But just the basic inventory management…it’s the same system that’s been used since…I don’t know…what was the first RPG to use a graphical inventory screen like this? I think that Wizardry 7 had such a system. That was released in 1992. But I’m sure it goes back further than that.
Mike will be in the middle of nowhere, with a full inventory (of rocks and woods and other “valuables”) and he’s on his way back to base to drop his shit off. Okay, good idea.
Then he’ll see a dungeon. So he’ll stop, mark the dungeon on the in-game map, and then go in the dungeon for more treasure.
YOU’RE ALREADY AT FULL CAPACITY, YOU FUCKING IDIOT! So he’ll go in this dungeon, kill some monsters, ignore all of the gold and precious gems, and end up throwing shit out of his inventory to make room for the new shit that he found. It’s just unbelievable.
And all the while, bitch Duo is busy building the greatest fortress that land has ever known. He also occasionally has to stop what he’s doing to go rescue Mike. He also crafts all of Mike’s gear because Mike doesn’t know how to do that. Mike also doesn’t know how to build structures. Or do much of anything in this game.
If it weren’t for bitch Duo, Mike would be huddled in a shack, starving, naked, and fighting monsters with his bare hands.
Maybe this is why Mike only plays these games with bitch Duo. Who else would want to play with Mike? He’s shit at the game and isn’t interested in learning how to play. He just wants to do his own thing even if it’s something completely idiotic like building a Scrooge McDuck money pit. If this was a public server, he would have been kicked for being a giant asshole.

Erin's Alleged Fondness for Blockbuster Video
https://twitter.com/ErinPlays_Games/status/1361477709147340805
Just saw this Hot Topic ad pop up on Instagram for a BLOCKBUSTER themed eyeshadow palette. WHY?! Everything doesn’t need a makeup line/palette. It’s funny though
Hey guys! Remember Hot Topic? Remember makeup? Remember Blockbuster?
I remember numbers 2 and 3 in that list but does Erin really remember Blockbuster? Apparently the company declared bankruptcy in 2010 but it was in terminal decline long before then. I’d say by 1996, nobody was going to Blockbuster.
Wait…maybe that’s too early. I remember first hearing about Netflix in 2005. Some scumbag roommate of mine used them. It was a mail order service. You were able to get DVDs through the mail. And this was in the UK so it presumably was available in the US before this time.
But let’s think about this. Erin was 10 years old in 1998. Blockbuster was out by then. It was a failing business. How could she possibly be *nostalgic* for this?
Take somebody like Bobdunga. Bobdunga is about four years younger than Erin. So they’re pretty close in age.
Bobdunga is *nostalgic* for shit that happened in the early 2000s. That’s accurate. That’s genuine *nostalgia* for somebody her age.
Why Erin pretends to be *nostalgic* for shit that happened before she was born is anyone’s guess. We can all do the arithmetic. How was she was possibly watching Jem as a child? The show was off the air before she was born and it was never shown in reruns.
They released some shitty VHS compilations between 1987 and 1991. Why would her parents have purchased those? They didn’t seem to purchase ANYTHING for Erin, but why would they in particular purchase OLD CARTOONS that are geared to 9-12 year old girls for their three year old daughter?
Then it wasn’t until 2004 that it was released on DVD. Erin would have been 16 years old. Was Erin watching Jem as a 16 year old? She was so interested in this old cartoon that she shelled out for the DVD? Or maybe she rented it from one of the last surviving Blockbusters.
Now let’s talk about the state of the blog. Blockbuster. Who gives a fuck about Erin’s fake *nostalgia* about Blockbuster? Nobody. I know this.
I’m limited to the “content” that the gamer grrls release. And they’re not releasing anything. They’re all on break.
I mean, CannotBeTamed releases stuff pretty much every week but it’s unwatchable. I can’t review that tedious shit.
And Pelvic Gamer did something recently but again, it’s really bad. And not in any way that can be made interesting. It’s just boring. Her videos are boring. If she was doing more of the crazy shit that she did back in the day where she would dress as a man and seduce herself or give Valentine’s Day advice to her horny, mentally challenged fans, I’d be all in. But these JRPG reviews…come on. I don’t want to write about that shit.
The blog is getting record numbers of hits. I got a big boost in traffic because some guy linked to that post I made suggesting that TuanX is Destiny Fomo’s pimp on some “urban” forum.
https://gamergrrlsofficial.blogspot.com/2020/05/tuan-x-is-destiny-fomos-pimp.html
Great. We’re all about being woke here.
I have an obligation to write good material that people of all races can enjoy. Men and women.
But more importantly, I don’t want to write about what Erin has to say about Care Bears on Twitter or some fucking shitty video about a JRPG that I never even heard of.
So if these gamer grrls don’t want to cooperate, fine. They’re out. I’m doing a GamerGrrls without gamer grrls.
What kind of shit do I enjoy writing about? Well, I liked my two part article where I detailed every reference to excrement in OverAnalyzers.
https://gamergrrlsofficial.blogspot.com/2020/04/every-reference-to-excrement-in.html
https://gamergrrlsofficial.blogspot.com/2020/04/every-reference-to-excrement-in_29.html
It’s a valuable resource. Years ago, I had the idea of documenting every reference to excrement in AVGN but that would be a herculean task. The job would have to be divided up between a number of people.
I also thought that it would be interesting to do a post on some of Mike Matei’s theological references. He makes a surprising number of them in his streams. You wouldn’t really think it but he must be a fairly religious guy or at least was as a child. It adds some depth to his character.
Chris BORES is another one who I enjoy writing about. Articles about him don’t do well but I like them. My favourite is the ghost hunter article.
https://gamergrrlsofficial.blogspot.com/2020/12/ghost-doctor-chris-bores-toledo-wtol.html
I think that a lot of people are put off because I make a lot of references to Chris BORES being gay. Well, first of all he is gay. There’s not a doubt in my mind.
But the bigger issue is that people don’t like this sort of “homophobic” material. And I do this a lot. I talk about Pam aka CannotBeEntertaining being gay, I talk about everyone on The Cinemassacre Truth being gay, whatever. Again, all of these people ARE gay but people don’t like the humour associated with this.
I can appreciate that. But I’m keeping it real, dawgs. If you don’t like that sort of stuff, you don’t have to read it. I don’t say anything mean-spirited, though.
Speaking of homosexuality, I also had an idea to catalogue some of the MANY homosexual messages on The Cinemassacre Truth. Photoshops of the Screenwave guys dressed as women and Photoshops of Mike’s penis being put into his own mouth and shit like this. It would just be overwhelming, though. The sheer amount of homosexual material on that sub…I couldn’t do it justice.
I like writing about Tony from Hack the Movies and his absolutely dire co-host Johanna. I have a really vitriolic article about Johanna in the vault but I don’t know if I’ll ever publish it. I mean, she’s fucking awful on that podcast but I don’t think that that’s a reason to heap hate on someone.
James Rolfe and his autism is a topic that I like talking about but it requires content worth talking about. Just the fucking bad videos that get uploaded now…they’re not worth my time.
Talking about old tv shows and shit…I’ve done that but I don’t really like how they turn out.
Personal *nostalgia*, yeah, those are sometimes alright. There’s a lot I can do. Childhood memories, rants about student loans, moving abroad, homely Asian women I’ve dated, shit like this.
So those are some options. It would be more interesting than, “Here are my views on Erin playing Castlevania for the 50th time, on stream, for money.”

REVIEW | Suikoden IV – Pelvic Gaming
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGgCQqLE7FM
The triumphant return of Pelvic Gamer! But we’ve already missed fucking half of Black History Month. Last year, she was all in for Black History Month. She would advertise for black-owned businesses in her videos and shit. This year? Nothing.
Same with Bobdunga. Last year, she was all about black lives mattering. This year? She’s working herself up over fucking Britney Spears.
https://twitter.com/bobdunga92/status/1359195742208933895
Like two people reply and neither of them even know what she’s talking about.
Okay, so fucking Suikoden IV. Whatever that is. Some boring Japanese RPG, presumably. But I skimmed and she’s in some weird costume so this might be worthwhile. Sort of.
So it starts with her washed up on the beach. She’s wearing a tank top or something and a big plastic sword.
Then she starts reviewing the game. I can’t. I’m zoning out. I’ll just skip ahead to the next zany skit.
4:00 – “Fucking secondly, okay, I got to pop off about this character. I’ve been pretty ambiguous about them up until now.”
She’s speaking really quickly so it’s hard to understand what she’s saying. I might have got some of that wrong.
Then she holds up a coconut…with a time stamp on it if you don’t want to hear the “spoiler”.
“Fucking Snow Lingerfoot (or something). He is a pussy ass bitch from start to finish. This mother fucker is a captain and abandons his ship.”
The gratuitous profanity really doesn’t do it for me. Who would say “fucking secondly” in any circumstance?
It’s a video game. Relax.
6:00 – More of that delightful skit on the beach. She roped a couple of horndogs into playing along as enemies. So she’s doing a skit where she shows how the combat in the game works.
7:15 – Ohhhhh….one of these horndogs is a woman. I never would have guessed from the initial zoomed out camera shot. She has short, cropped hair. Good for her.
12:00 – Now Pelvic Gamer is sitting on the “corpses” of her friends. I’m not sure who’s enjoying this more: the fat guy or the totally not a lesbian woman.
15:30 – Hopefully, the conclusion to this skit. It ended with some sort of a “joke”. I don’t know. Check it out for yourself but…don’t expect Dave Chappelle levels of comedy. Think more Wanda Sykes.
Then she talks about how much work she put into making this video so we should all appreciate it.
Well, at least one guy did:
– “I love how much effort you put into your videos, keep it up!”
That was from PeanutButterGamer, a homosexual man who she did a “collab” with.
It’s damning praise, isn’t it? Well, A for effort but D- for result.
– “I love the work you put into this game!!! I appreciate it a lot”
Oh, somebody else with the same opinion.
– “Get your fans to send you a ps3 and play suikoden 5 and tactics:)”
Shameful. But that is what she does. She’s constantly shaking down her mentally challenged, horny fans for free stuff.
– “Someone get this gal a copy of Suikoden V ASAP!”
Why are these people saying this? GO GET A JOB, PELVIC GAMER. PAY FOR YOUR OWN SHIT.
– “I gotta give you a Like just for the production effort alone.”
But what about the content? Was it funny? Was it entertaining? No. It was brutal.
It’s like fucking Jimmy “Rainman” Rolfe when he talks about how much work he put into that fucking Christmas video where he just hits that bald guy over the head with a bottle for 15 minutes. Yeah, okay, it took effort to do that. You have to buy all of that sugar glass and whatnot. It takes time and effort. But the end result was dogshit.
Years ago, I did a job that took me 40 hours to do. It was really difficult and the end result was bad. So I handed the work in to my then employer and they said, “We’re not paying you for this. It was really bad.”
I didn’t argue. Okay, you don’t want to pay, don’t pay. I just won’t do any more of this work. And I didn’t. And they weren’t happy with that. But fuck them.
That’s what Rainman should have done after that awful slapstick video. “People don’t appreciate all of the work that I put into this? Then fuck them. This is the last AVGN.”
It would have been better for everyone involved. James would have got another job, maybe at Wawa or wherever mentally challenged people can find employment. Maybe he would have liked that job better. And the public at large wouldn’t be subjected to subsequent god awful AVGN episodes. Everyone wins.
– “Someone send her a PS2 and copies of Tactics and V, stat!”
Why don’t you do it, you horny loser? No job?
– “ngl your channel name sounds dirty in my head lol, great video”
That’s intentional, you fucking idiot.

5 reasons NOT to buy Intellivision Amico – John Riggs
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=THsaVKOy5Gc
Spoiler: it’s a joke video. He’s actually shilling for this thing.
0:45 – He inserts an ad for something called Otis. You can buy shares of sneakers. No, I’m not making this up. John Riggs says that with this app, you can buy shares of sneakers.
I’d like to purchase a 1/64 share of some Vans Old Skool Pros, please.
Holy shit. What a shill. Shilling for this stupid as fuck SCAM. What kind of a fucking moron is investing their money in shoes? And shoes that SOMEBODY ELSE OWNS? What if this guy’s dog eats the shoes? You just lost your life’s savings.
Actually, this is the perfect investment for the mentally challenged viewers of these channels. John Riggs really knows his audience.
2:00 – Then he finally gets to the meat of the video…which…is actually just more shilling. But here he’s shilling for the Intellivision Amico.
I don’t really know anything about this shit. I don’t keep up with the Amico news. I don’t give a fuck.
But it seems to be an upcoming console being produced by some guy in his basement. I really don’t think that this is going to be a success.
So why is John Riggs going in so hard on this? Because he claims to be close personal friends with this basement-based console magnate. And he got some free shit from this guy. That’s it. That’s all it takes to buy John Riggs. Give him some free trash that nobody even wants.
I just looked it up. They want $250 for this shit. Or £250 in the UK, of course. That’s $350. I guess that it costs this guy $100 per unit to use a different power supply and whatever else needs to be done.
How much is a Switch? About the same. $250.
So I can get a Nintendo Switch or I can get a console that some guy is making in his basement. And people talk about how the games for this thing are similar to mobile games. I don’t know if that’s true or not but how many big titles is a console that a guy is making from his basement possibly going to have?
The days of buying consoles and physical games are long gone. We don’t need ANY consoles. We certainly don’t need a guy cranking these things out in his basement.
But John Riggs desperately makes the case that this will be the greatest console ever released. And all because this guy gave him some free shit.
I’m just reading the Wikipedia article. The idea is that it’s basically just for 2d games. So I’m supposed to buy an underpowered piece of shit, that some sweaty guy made in his basement, to play 16 bit or earlier style games?
And look at these games that they claim will be available: 10 Yard Fight, Bad Dudes, Burger Time, Frogger. What the fuck? If I want to play these games, I’ll just fire up MAME. And I’m not firing up MAME because I don’t want to play these games.
There is absolutely no chance that this is going to be a success. The controller is also weird. Who’s the market for this thing? John Riggs? That’s not enough.
3:15 – “Holes will be burning in your pants.”
I’ll just leave that there.
So that’s the video. John Riggs shills hard for this console that is obviously doomed to fail.
Massive dislikes on this video.
– “Smh… much disappointment, John. Both the scam of a sponsor and shamelessly shilling for the Amico. I seriously expect more from you, John. You earned this dislike.”
– “Do more open cart surgery. I’m not interested in this pointless console with no reason to exist, and some Robinhood wannabe app.”
– “You definitely earned your free hat and tshirt.”
– “I’ll put all my bank savings in Otis and then come back to complain with you John once I’m broke…”
– “seriously? you’re doing commercials for “invest companies” ? Guys i would not trust or use otis, if you’re in debt, pay that off first. if you have a little extra money. then go to your bank and get guidence instead. eveyone claiming you can earn money fast by investing throughs apps and whatnot are lying. it’s all a get rich quick scheme. Immagine buying “parts” of whatever merchandice otis claims is worth a lot of money, before you know it the people at the top of the pyramid will sell off and let you hanging with a worthless piece of ownership. This wont happen by investing in bonds or sharefonds through your bank.”
I find it interesting that this guy suggests that you discuss your investments with your bank. Do people do that? Every time I go to the bank, they try to get me to have a discussion with them about investments but I always decline. I assume that they’re just going to try to sell me on their shitty 0.01% savings accounts or whatever. I thought that you’d go to like an independent financial advisor if you want finance advice. An accountant or whatever. Stock broker. I don’t know.
Anyway, EVERYONE gives John Riggs shit in the comments and he just replies with dismissive bullshit that doesn’t even address the points raised. “I paid my $100 deposit for the console.” What does that have to do with anything? Who gives a fuck?
