EFAP #216 - Full story break down of God of War: Ragnarok with MarctheCyborg (unlisted)

EFAP #217 - Responding to Synthetic Man and "God of War Ragnarök is NOT a masterpiece" w/Marc + Theo (unlisted)

Yeah makes sense since they're unlisted but the disparity between the two episodes is still there.

If I had to guess ppl saw part one of the analysis and didn't bother to check in for part two cause the format was so shit

 

[Kharash]

I need to see this.

 

[Maniacal Foreigner]

God of War: Ragnarök Story Supercut - Cutscene and in-game dialogue for main storyline

I made this for the ol' podcast and figured I shouldn't let the work go to waste and such.

www.youtube.com

No time for TFA Part 5, the Joker praise, the GoT Finale Rage etc. etc.

 

[Midwit]

And I don't think anyone else on EFAP really adds anything.

EFAP is only tolerable when they have fun guests and are watching videos which are geniune, unadulterated trash like the one where Dankula was there to roast the shit out of a Nostalgia Critic LotR video. Notably he talked about a quarter as much as his co-hosts and was four times as funny.

No time for TFA Part 5, the Joker praise, the GoT Finale Rage etc. etc.

Of all the hills for Mauler to die on, this is not the one I was expecting.

is it me or efap discord members are spamming /v/ and trying to make look SM bad, but every time they do they are made fun off and they seethe about it?
what's going on? no body in actual cares what SM has to say, why so many threads and discussions? it is actually efap seethefest goin on

Holy shit! One of the rules of the internet is to never, EVER, raid 4chan. You annoy any of the communities there and the tards there will come after you 10 fold. It's like nobody learned their lesson from the Fallout: The Frontier fiasco or the infamous Tumblr raid. In case you forgot what happened with that EFags.

I'm going to give you some advice EFags. Stop raiding /v/ and doing defense for your internet daddy. If you keep it up like you are it isn't going to end well for you and your community. It's best to just walk away and take the L. However, I am inclined to believe that you faggots are way too autistic to understand something so simple.

LMAO! He unlisted the videos from his playlist because of the backlash. I think Mauler knows that he royally fucked up. However, the man is too prideful to admit his mistakes. I'm sorry to say that it is too late Callum. You are about to eat a whole helping of humble pie soon. As they say Callum; "Pride comes before the fall."

I don't think that's what's happening. If I wanted to rile up /v/ against Mauler, the very first thing I would to is go to /v/ and make obnoxious brag threads pretending to be an EFAG declaring victory over SM (and by proxy, /v/). So by that logic, I have to assume this is a gay op by someone subbed to SM (such a person would invariably understand how /v/ works, and thus have the same idea as me).

Given /v/ history that maybe true, however, Synth in his comments and Game Awards video told his fans to not harass and bother Mauler and the EFags as he doesn't want to deal with the drama and to just let it be. I don't think this is a gayop. I honestly believe that EFap fans are this autistic, cringe and cultlike. Remember, Mauler has jannies on his Discord and Reddit whose job it is to monitor 4chan and go to Mauler's defense if they say anything bad about him. According to some /v/tards, EFap fans have been doing this for a while in 4chans /tv/ board.

Edit: In Nerdrotic latest stream he was ignoring superchats and comments people were sending him in regards to Mauler trying to false flag and deplatform Synth. They are in damage control.

I can't believe people can't just say dumb shit on a drunk stream without having some fat spastic and his gay furry make some 15 hours of shitty content out of it.

 

[PHILLIP BANKS]

SCARY!

Imagine, thinking anything with something like this in it:


is a masterpiece that rivals King Lear or Citizen Kane. Its what makes tweets like this from Mauler:

so funny to me because this fat fuck is the definition of a pseudointellectual. I doubt you read anything that wasn't Martin's incest fanfics Callum. You don't strike me as the kind of guy who reads actual books and stories like Dostoevsky, Dumas or Bradbury. Your taste are very childish and immature but then again so it is with the rest of the Fagtard Menace. I would say that you are a diet Sargon but Sargon at least reads actual books, runs a book club where they read actual literature and he lost a lot of weight to where he is now at a healthy size for his age unlike you you egoistical pig.

The memes were funny, but actually reading the board gave me cancer and I'm probably going to die by New Years now. I forgot that /v/ attracted a special bread of doomposters with an IQ low enough to freeze in salt water.

 

[dustnight]

I doubt he reads anything

He doesn't

Like good god I am absolutely terrible at reading shit and even I've read more than TWO BOOKS

 

[PaladinBoo]

SCARY!

Just look at the smug, self importance these fucks give off. Good lord, it truly is the Skeptics all over again. I would argue though that the Fandom Menace are worse then the Skeptics. The Skeptics at least sperged about shit that had some importance like religion and politics. Here these spergs drone on about entertainment made for children and think their 16 hour long discussions of some Disney goyslop is going to save Western Culture. The hubris.

He doesn't

Like good god I am absolutely terrible at reading shit and even I've read more than TWO BOOKS

Mauler: Things have to make some semblance of sense.
JW: That would make for boring art.
Fucking kek. The legendary filmmaker Alfred Hitchcock once said logic is dull. Not everything needs to make sense and be logical. For instance, David Lynch's works are surrealist. They aren't suppose to make sense but rather the stories and themes are told through symbolism. Could you imagine what Eraserhead and Twin Peaks would have been like if they were "logical"? They would have been terrible and dull! Logic doesn't always mean smart Callum.

I mean, to be fair, Lynch's stuff does make sense if you know how to interpret it - it operates on dream logic, everything is highly symbolic, but it's not just random pretentious "blank canvas" shit. He's even offered clues in the past to figuring out what was actually going on in some of his movies.
Then again, they are talking about a fucking Star Wars movie that was so poorly written that the basic surface level A to B to C plot was complete nonsense. In this particular instance, JW was absolutely the bigger fool for defending it.
That being said, the way these nerds are seemingly incapable of seeing any deeper subtext to most of the media they apparently love so much really does make me facepalm.

I will agree with you. However, that debate with JW did revel Mauler for what he is. A dullard. This is a man who admitted that he has only read two books in his life, that his education is basic, that he only ever consumes modern pop culture and nothing of substances. This is all very funny to me given that Mauler likes to present himself as a "intellectual". As a man who is highly educated and is an authority on film and culture. In reality he is as uncultured, uneducated and dull as they come. Right up there with MovieBob.

Not only that but the squirell is voiced by Prozd one of the worst voice actors in the industry right after Troy Baker.

When it comes to Mauler, the JW clip came up which is probably the biggest self report lmao. But evenif you don't watch that one you can piece together this dude doesen't ready anything. He NEVER read the source material to anything they watch - Not GoT, not Lotr, he hasn't even read a fucking comic book. This then comes out in the Efap stance of "Oh we don't respect the adaptation argument" - Which is just code for "Oh we don't know the source material and we don't care about it." To which I say - Fuck you then?
The argument that "Oh adaptation doesen't need to be faithfull it just needs to be good on it's own" is retarded. If you don't plan on faithfully adapt something, just make something new and don't change the thing that's something completely else. I think it's an argument born of ignorance cause if you did know the source material you wouldn't think this.

Which is the case with Efap hypocrites! I dunno if this actually came up but Fringy during the Efap episodes on the Halo show was complaining a lot about how inaccurate the show was. And Fringy is the one who always screaches "muh adaptation arguments" whenever something else gets criticized as a poor adaptation. To me it showed that Fringy was an uneducated fuck who just plays videogames so he knows when those are not adapted properly and gets uspet when that's not the case but also gets uspet when stuff he likes gets called out as a poor adaptation. Since he's a weird fucking autist. Watch the episodes on Halo it's funny to hear him squirm as he's trying to say it's bad cause it's a bad adaptation but also trying not to sound like a hypocrite he absolutely is in that situation.

Back to Mauler and reading books though. I am younger then Mauler, I am fairly younger then him. Not gonna show my power levels or anything but I wouldn't be shocked if I was a generation lower then him, and I read books quite frequently. I am not a big fan of Dostojevskij or Čapek myself, I had to read it in high school and I thought it sucked. I think fantasy is a perfectly fine diet of books to consume if you want, if anything you should prolly have a primarily fantasy book diet if you review fantasy and sci fi movies. So that you can actually compare with a much more developped medium like literature when you review film.

Mauler: Things have to make some semblance of sense.
JW: That would make for boring art.

They would have been terrible and dull! Logic doesn't always mean smart Callum.

Tbh. this is from a time I agreed with Mauler a lot more. I agree that you should make sure your plot makes sense, it has some logical structure. Things can't just happen in plot cause "it's fantasy" - That's poor writing that's gonna tear your audience right out of the experience. This is amateur book writer 101

Logical consistency wouldn't make for boring films. It just speaks to how JW is a dullard without a speck of creativity. It's one of the most fun process' in writing trying to figure out how to move the plot or add things without breaking your established continuity. Unless the base premise of your plot is about breaking continuity and breaking the rules (Like a time travel story or smth like that) internal cosistency (not realism) is very important.

EDIT: To the topic of adaptation argument and EFAP. I gotta quickly bring up one of the most retarded points I've ehard in my entire life. When the show about Anne Boleyn witht he black actress came out and people pointed out that it's not historically accurate. This FUCKING FAGGOTS had the GALL to say "That doesen't matter to us we don't accept adaptation arguments" - Motherfucker it's a historical doccumentary! You can't just change shit willy nilly like a comic book movie you uneducated fuck. Because then people like you who spent a total of five years in school will think that's how the history actually went.

 

[PHILLIP BANKS]

man this is indeed very entertaining lmao

The memes were funny, but actually reading the board gave me cancer and I'm probably going to die by New Years now. I forgot that /v/ attracted a special bread of doomposters with an IQ low enough to freeze in salt water.

yeah /v/ is like that, but i am very much addicted to this board

 

[huecoffs02]

I sort of agree with Mauler that you don't HAVE to be a super well studied fag and quote all sorts of thinkers from history to be able to review media. A lot of people like JW that do just come off as a repository of takes from philosophers or whatever which is very gay. I do think that you should have at least a good understanding of what you are critiquing or at least appreciate that adaptations have a duty to represent the work they are adapting in some way.

An adaptation CAN overcome it's origins as just an adaptation, sure so you can't straight up say that if something doesn't match its source material automatically = bad.

A recent example I have struggled with actually is Namor from Wakanda 2. The wings on his ankles might look silly but they are accurate to the original which is to be appreciated. It falls down when you start introducing all the other shit they did from his new origin and how fast and loose MCU is playing with the mutant shit. So I don't understand why they would knock the movie down just because it looks silly. Sure you can poke fun at it but Mauler spent quite some time on it on his EFAP of the movie.

 

[Yosha]

AllmightyLoli, the guy that made the Just some Guy video after his debate with Rekieta on the Flashcast, was asked about the Mauler situation and basically said that he's a hypocrite and a faggot. They do mention that Syntetic is also a faggot, but that the EFAP crew are massive ones after all this shit.
Anyway there's some discussion about it around 37:50 and 5:13.35... idk, there could be more, but i slept during the middle part of the video.
btw, if anyone is into Berserk, there is a great video on the channel about the whole series.
