The Mysterious Mr. Enter / Jonathan Rozanski's "Growing Around" - IndieGoGo Campaign Failed, John going off the deep end, "Turning Red" is ignorant about 9/11 (later retracted)

[Mr Roboto]

It's Bojack Horseman, because (IIRC) it's an animated adult drama where consequences matter and characters develop. Basically, it's an antithesis to every adult cartoon he's trashed.

I might sound autistic and a bit of an armchair psychologist but here goes:

Spoiler: Drunk/autism

I think Enter might see himself as Bojack in a way. Both are former famous trying to live up to the hype of their former glory (Obviously Enter is debatably famous (I would say he isn't) but he has more notoriety than most people) by doing projects that are grander than most people associate with them. With Bojack it was Secretariat, with Enter it's Technocrancy and Nick-O-Rama.

Both are bigger scale projects that their audiences aren't used to seeing from them and both are brought into the public eye more by these projects.

Then both characters have the part where they spiral down due to problems with mental health

To put it simply, Enter is a mess and I think I had a point at one part but I'm too drunk to remember where I was going with this

Q: How did people handle a pandemic back them?
A: They moved on with their lives. They didn't shut everything down.

Anyone with the slightest knowledge of the black plague would know that Mr. Enter is full of shit here. Then again, this is the same guy who refused to go to college so he could make videos screaming about children's cartoons for a living.

As far as YouTube is concerned, you've never given the indication you're still going, either. Most users assume an ongoing project would at least get monthly updates, and aside from that, you have a really bad track record of announcing huge projects and abandoning them without notice... like Madoka.



For someone so desperate to convince us YouTube is a "real job," you certainly don't seem proud of ii.



"I don't know what to do for my show, to the point where I haven't uploaded anything significant in weeks."
"Here are some options."
"STOP TRYING TO SOLVE MY PROBLEMS!"

Look, I get it. Fan requests can be overbearing and should probably be ignored when your plate is already full, but ONLY when your plate is already full.



You enjoyed MLP analysis blogs and videos, found one critic whose views you legitimately couldn't stand (Byter: "Season 3 sucks."), and decided to marathon MLP while roleplaying as a defense attorney specifically to spite that critic. Then, throughout the marathon, you'd say things like "This episode is bad, but it wasn't as bad as The Splinter," your comments rightfully asked "What the hell is The Splinter?" and you responded with a full review of a SpongeBob episode which spawned into "Animated Atrocities." I don't know why I have to explain this shit to you, since you lived it and all, but I find it helps to understand why you started down a dangerous path before you continue to walk the dangerous path.



Define "progress," because as long as you're revising scripts and revising animatics and rejecting the very concept of non-negotiable due dates (spending too much time in the oven, as producers would say,) I wouldn't call anything you do meaningful "progress."



I rest my case.

Not to say the scripts don't need to be revised, but seriously, where is the pilot Enter? Nobody gives a shit that he wrote the season 6 finale if progress on episode 1 is stuck where it was 3 years ago when he had nothing.

I’d just like to take a moment to comment that I find amusement that someone so afraid of being raped that he refused to go to college calls himself Mr. Enter.

 

[LiquidKid]

One quote from the livestream really got to me for how self-deprecating it was. Paraphrasing Enter, "Name one Admirable Animation that wasn't A) made specifically as a counterexample to something I don't like, or B) a generic recap of the episode." It's not that it's hard for him to promote greatness, but rather that he's never actually done it before. I doubt he's even tried to. I'll bet part of the reason he refuses to review Madoka is because he couldn't find a way to get angry about it.

The quote that got me was “I don’t watch video responses to me because that’s the fastest window to depression”

 

[Chilson]

To everyone trying to diagnose why enter has such a problem with the quarantine, remember he is a literal diagnosed Autist.

Autists despise change in any manner or form. The fact that Covid-19 changed everything about how the country works scares the ever living shit out of enter. Even if it really doesn't impact his actual way of life (because he is a shut in), it has radically changed the way everyone and everything else works and that alone pisses him off to no end.

Its also why he doesn't bother to learn or improve on anything. He shaves using scissors, doesn't seem to buy new/fitting clothes, and he doesn't even brush his own god damn teeth like a normal person because its how he has ALWAYS done it. Its also the real reason he is so scared of college because that is the ultimate change in environment and expectations.

All this is just an autistic fit because something changed and he has no power to stop it.

Doesn't look very promising, but then I never really got into this whole 'toon thing so who am I to say?

 

[The Pink Panther]

Q: What do you think about how Japan has normalised face masks?
A: Japan has normalised a lot of things that probably shouldn't be normalised in the rest of the world, like being xenophobic.

>isolationism
>equivalent to xenophobia

Lmao fuck off, globohomo Enter.

 

[Massively Strong Greed]

And why is he such a cunt to everyone, even his fans, all the time? Someone even asked with a superchat why he made a stream just to complain and Enter bitched at him too.

At this point, I’m pretty sure Enter just lives in a constant state of bitterness and refuses to be happy and/or nice. He really is a combination of Spoony and DarksydePhil with a dash of Chris.

Nah, it’s writing isn’t that strong, but that’s not why people backed it. It was a competently animated indie pilot and people like to see those.
plus there’s a lot of creepy fan porn of the Native American girl, which ensures it’ll have an audience forever

Lmao fuck off, globohomo Enter.

Furthermore:
>Face masks.
>Equivalent to xenophobia.

WEW LAD.

 

[The Pink Panther]

>Face masks.
>Equivalent to xenophobia.

No.

He wasn't talking about face masks in the context of what he said. He was talking Japan as a whole somehow "introducing xenophobia".

 

[Aurora]

>isolationism
>equivalent to xenophobia

Lmao fuck off, globohomo Enter.

To be fair asians are the most racist people on Earth, and Japan is actually the most racist and xenophobic of all of them.

 

[AnAccount]

Honestly. I think he's trying to get 'cancelled' and by cancelled, saying some moderately controversial thing, that will get reaction, albeit a reaction he can then calm by posting a video defending himself. getting him traction in the algorithm

If he were that smart or that concerned about the algorithm, he'd already be uploading at least once a week. No, I still think he just wants to be mad.

good point honestly.

 

[New age retro hippie]

Considers Nick-O-Rama a failure (I wonder why )

Don't know if it's sarcastic but my guess is that it's really not been well-received by the cartoon enthusiasts' community, and usually for good reasons.
By not tackling only one particularly bad episode but an entire series he showed just how much ignorant and superficial he can be with his reviews.

For example he spent a big chunk of his El-Tigre review underlying how much of its mexican themes feel like form "An outsider looking into it" while everyone knows its creator, Jorge Gutierrez, is mexican and extremely proud of his culture. Note that Enter himself later aknowledges this but... yeah he left his "not cultural enough" rant in the review.

Another example is how he showed his ignorance of limited animation by describing the Rise of the TMNT animation as "very, very bad". He also complained about Splinter,as a character, being treathed disrespectfully because he was a slob, while his being a couch potato was actually the first step of his redemption arc, wich leads to the last, bigger criticism:

That he openly admitted of reviewing "whole" series while not watching them in their entirety. I mean, it was fairly obvious even by looking at his normal reviews while retaining some knowledge of the cartoons he was talking about, but just hearing him openly admitting of reviewing things he didn't actually watch just left a sore taste in a lot of his fans' mouth.

[EDIT]
Was listening to the stream and he said he won't do anything symilar to Nick-oRama because of the "quote, unquote, feedback".
Nice to see Enter is, as usual, very receptive of constructive criticism and uses it to improve his craft.

 

[Wabbu]

Q: Are you staying inside?
A: No, I'm getting plenty of fresh air.

This confirms that he thought quarantining meant not even going on your backyard lol

 

[Deadman]

Who would have thought a Kickstarter failing would effect a man this much.

Would not be surprise. Mr enter put everything into growing around. He gueniely thought it was going to be his big break into the industry, when it clearly was'nt. now that reality came knocking into the door, he broke. Can we have a poll on how soon will he kill himself? Might seem a-log ish, but its not out of wanting him to do it.

If nick o rama wasn't the final nail in the coffin for his remaining fan's, i dunno what was.
