TGWTG Allison Pregler / Obscurus Lupa / Movie Nights - The vindictive leader of #ChangeTheChannel, GOTIS personified, vendetta against The Cinema Snob

[Arthur Morgan]

Personally, and I have no real evidence of it, I suspect she's a good decade older than she admits.

You weren't the only one. Hell, look at Jesus Bro. she and Dave are almost ten years apart in age but they look natural as a couple because you'd assume they were the same age.

That's the danger of being weird. The audience is never sure if you're being tongue-in-cheek or if you really are nuts. Spoony has that problem, ironically enough.

Oh Spoony was absolutely nuts, he was just entertaining enough that it took us a while to notice it.

 

[RJ MacReady]

Then she stopped that and went with semi-serious but she never got over her desire to be strange. The problem is she's trying way too hard.

I always figured this methhead lookalike saw Lindsay Ellis blow up into a feminist e-celeb before her eyes and has desperately wanted to be like that ever since. Lupa probably feels like that could've been her if only Doug Walker wasn't a Nazi or whatever.

Or going into prositution

Well, Lupa is latin slang for prostitute after all.

Honestly I think that's her goal. Not to look like shit but to look weird and wacky.

Her stuff, before she left Channel Autism, was her being weird and wacky during her reviews. Then she stopped that and went with semi-serious but she never got over her desire to be strange. The problem is she's trying way too hard.

I think it's just another way people like her use irony as a self-defense mechanism. "Haha, I made myself look like a microwaved troll doll on purpose, you can't laugh at me! I could totally look good if I wanted to, I just don't feel like it."

 

[PeriodicTrouble]

Well, it's the three year anniversary of the not so awesome document.
Let's see how Allison fared as a result of her movement.
Her most viewed video still remains #ChangeTheChannel: What happened with Channel Awesome.

She had her highest patron count on April 2018, and then over the course of a year caused her patron count to go right back to the same amount before Change The Channel.



Edit: Forgot to include Subscribers and Monthly view count over the last three years.

Wait seriously about the slang?

Even a decade-celibate john would have problems working up a boner to fuck that.

Well, I've went on some Latin to English translators and I got "An unknown wolf". I've also heard "dark she-wolf" and the proper Latin should/would be "ObscurA Lupa" Or "Lupa ObscurA (caps for highlighting the error). Anyway, IIRC, Allison said she picked the name because she liked it. And getting rid of it may have been because of the "whore" aspect, but the bigger thing I think it's to distance herself from her time at Channel Awesome, like getting rid of the red hair.

Good to know

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lupanar

"The Roman word for brothel was lupanar, meaning a wolf den, and a prostitute was called a lupa ("she-wolf")."

Haha she fits the description

 

[Azafran90]

Haha she fits the description

You mean in that she's a bitch or in that she looks like a shaved wild dog?

 

[Josterman]

Both are apt descriptions

This makes too much sense considering she was (is?) a big fan of Big Wolf on Campus. Is it safe to say that she has a thing for werewolves?

I'm sharing this post from the E-Rod thread because it features our favorite red-haired harpie.

Since Cinematic Venom gets referenced in comparison often, I might as well mention I occasionally check up on what Rob Boor is up to.
He posted a video of somebody else interviewing him (nice ego) on a new channel with hilariously low view counts.
I don't even want to say more because the deadness of his youtube presence is part of the comedy, please help preserve this by leaving it up to weirdos like us to document.

I have to warn people, it is painfully unfunny, and Obscurus Lupa may just well be the worst of the three of them.

The worst part of the whole thing is the fucking sketch goes on forever. I mean we rag on Doug for having skits in his reviews but that's nothing compared to what Lewis and ERod have.

Lupa, at least now, just talks about the movie. No skits. And she's still unwatchable.

 

[RumblyTumbly]

As Horrifying as that Thumbnail is the fact that's the hairbrushed pic of her says a lot.

Jesus Christ that thumbnail is the work of the devil.

Like...Holy shit lady!

Honestly, ERod may be the worst in that regard because he thinks that people come for his adventures. But Lupa's attempts at jokes in that Justice League Review....if this is how she quips over some superhero film, I'd hate to see the jokes over her usual fare of obscure so bad it's good schlocky films on her main show.

I got a good laugh out of Linkara being called “Special Needs Superman”.

The absolute state of that video from an apparently professional creator. The top 1/3 of the screen is a featureless white wall, and the 3 of them are barely in frame. You had better quality videos in 2008.
