I think Phil's a bad subject for the next documentary anyway. I hope that Mike will switch gears, but he seems determined to cover this boring retard.

“There’s this OTHER thing behind the scenes, that JUST happened the other day, and maybe I’ll tell you about it, maybe I eventually will, and it’s a HUGE determining factor and it JUST happened.”

Fucking Christ dude, just say you don’t want to do the documentary.

 

[LecherousGranolaBar]

He also mentioned old Street Fighter drama, maybe he contacted Jaha.

Yo, you think he contacted Viscant about their scheduled fist fight that Phil bitched out of?

Wings, could offer a similar to Phil experience. There's Cobes who actively is drinking himself to death, Cyraxx could bring in the views as well.

I hope so, that was always a funny story.

DSP is such a bitch.

The corner demon demanded Phil to pull out of the documentary.

If Mike Clum's strategy is to be super nice to his documentary subjects and not release anything if they get cold feet, he will have to get a lot more intelligent about his chosen partners or this won't be the last time he's left out in the cold with nothing to show for months of work. I hope he hasn't spent much money on this for his sake, but I guess it's funnier if he did.

I hope mike sends him an invoice for the expenses he incurred just for the shits and giggles. DSP would lose his shit if he got a bill for the robust Italian dinner(including the 25% tip) Mike paid for.

 

[HerrKlicks]

Not a surprise, obviously. However, I didn't expect DSP to punch out this early and sudden.

Atm I'm torn between the different angles on what was the drop in the bucket that caused the sudden death of the project. Most likely he really went overboard on the prespending with gacha/ shopping on the south American style membership income and it's code red in Casa Burnelli since he mentioned behind the scenes emergency that happened this week and affected things.

What personally made the least sense to me was him going on about how he would be busy for WEEKS with the production of the doc. Realistically, how many production days did he expect to have on this project where he would be required for filming?

In the words of the great Chadam Crigler: make it make sense!

 

[TheGrandDragonJesus]

Phil should do his own documentary, with fat chicks and mobile games.

 

[Ultrapenguin]

DSP is like a skittish cat: he's difficult to coax out, ready to bolt at the first sign of trouble, and if you ever do manage to ambush and trap him he'll go back to cowering deep under the furniture for the next year.

At least we did finally get a Kat BMI update, so something fun came out of it.

 

[Monopolywheel]

Damn
I trusted the Mike plan

 

[Scopely]

My unasked for guess is he saw this documentary as an epic showing how he's just a little guy, a blue collar youtuber, constantly being punched down by everyone. A sob story showing him in through a victim lens.
He saw it wasn't going to be like that and pussied out.

 

[Huggler]

Mike fucked up the moment he made it public before having the phil house and in person material. At least some footage! But it was clear he didn't study much into the pig to know how to try and deal with him... Sorry mikey, maybe next time.

Don't even bother trying to make Phil go back on his word and make the doc anyway, he already knows there is no way in fuck he can look good when there is the 'two sides' of the story.

 

[grump]

Who could've predicted this? Totally shocked that DSP would once again back out on his word. He always has some nebulous "thing" going on in the background that he wont tell you about but rest assured it's big and it's key to understanding why he can't do the documentary. And it's not like he wasn't warned either. Gundam asked him what his plan was when Phil backed out. and he thought it'd be fine just have faith, Phill will pull through he's great! I wouldn't be surprised if he canceled because of the foreign memberships. Everything is about money and he can't do meet ups for documentary and play WWE champions without that membership money.

And what the fuck does he mean he has to figure out how to play co-op games with Kat? He's done co-op playthroughs plenty of times with other people before. Kat gets on discord and you play a fucking game, it's not rocket science. Play games on the couch, get a better chair for the next time she's on stream. There's nothing to figure out you just do it. But guys plugging in a pc and cables is so hard!

Most of us were shocked DSP would even cooperate on a doc. I guess this is just fate realigning to our predictions in the end.

 

[Pepper Jack]

If that’s the case, then that makes him better than most of todays long form “video essay” documentarians on YouTube. I’d rather be patient and hear from the true source than from DSP’s paypigs about how he still can’t handle the tiniest of constructive criticism.

I did some cursory research and what DSP said about Mike is correct. He owns a very successful mature adult marketing business and he is getting into documentaries. I am sure Mike has seen his share of difficult clients in the past and has the business acumen and emotional intelligence to remain professional at all times.

Contrast that with dumb fat retards in the commentary community (i.e. Nick DeOreo ( HE'S FAT!) and Tommy C (Alcoholic hyena) that snake one another just for clicks.

 

[KingOfHypocrisy]

If Mike is going to make a series of lolcow documentaries, he should realize that not all of them will be as desperate and shameless as Boogie, willingly airing his dirty laundry and embarrassing himself.

Phil was a terrible choice because he was never going to fully cooperate and provide all the outrageous material needed for the video to blow up like the Boogie one did.

 

[Forsaken Wanderer]

Most of us were shocked DSP would even cooperate on a doc. I guess this is just fate realigning to our predictions in the end.

I think he is still desperate to both have a redemption arc and to get a bigger fanbase, but then probably realized after Derich told him about the Boogie interview that more of his closet skeletons would be exposed again.

 

[Balr0g]

If you're hoping he'll just do the docu without DSP, that's probably unlikely. He's so early into his work that if he starts doing pieces that are hostile, he'd lose access, which was the big selling point in his Boogie documentary. Basically, he has to make videos that the subjects think are fair in order for people featured in future work to feel safe with him in their space.

Most likely. He could in theory put some warning label at the beginning like "Unfortunately during the production Phil Burnell quit the cooperation so you will get information that couldn't be verified by himself. Please take this into consideration" or some other layer speak to free him from repercussions. But then again the big draw was that he actually visited Phil and I doubt he can actually use that footage if he even recorded some of that.

You did your best Mr. Clum and I salute your efforts

You could in theory rewrite it into one that depicts his decline from a total outsiders view but that has been done ad nauseum and your documentary would perhaps just be a polished version of it. I wonder though what caused it. Did Phil not like it that Mike was talking to his family? Or to the old guard of the FGC? The FGC that "hates" Phil? Or Heaven forbid, talking to Leanna?

 

[UaineRunei]

Mike for the last few weeks was reaching out to anyone and everyone from Phil's past. (FGC guys, His Family, he reached out to Panda, and John Rambo, and Phil's biggest fans like Jayde and Derich.)

Tbh, that's a good reason to cancel it.

 

[Wodanaz]

Boogie doc got 1m views in less than 24 hours. DSP is retarded for canceling, it would have been the most advertising he's gotten in years. But I guess he would have had to actually answer questions truthfully to make it as impactful as boogie's.
