Bob Chipman / Robert Lewis Chipman / MovieBob / Game OverThinker - "Coastal Elite Thinker" who wants conservatives, Christians and manual workers eradicated. Universally ignorant; cannot tell reality from sci-fi. Sore loser with short fuse. Odious Disney shill. Tranny chaser and general creep. Fat and diabetic.

Moviebob happens to have a Tiktok account. By retweeting this comment, Moviebob is participating a massive self-own.
He wouldn't consider it that way because he believes only other people have bad takes. His are always amazing, unless contradicted by the cool kids, then they never happened.
I think I tend more left than some in this thread, but I basically went through the exact opposite process. If these people wanted to just be left alone and could take a fucking joke I would literally not give a shit about trannies, hell maybe even be sympathetic. I don't like thin skinned humorless people though. The attack helicopter thing I haven't seen in years now, and the fact they are still fuming about this tells me all I need to know. It's all fair game or none of it is.
I was kind of the same. I was pretty left-wing as a teen and even in my early twenties. Then the left kept fucking up and making everything about themselves getting attention instead of getting anything done. Bob doesn't think that's a problem because he doesn't want anything done so when he becomes a billionaire, he can hoard money and rape women in exchange for being naked in his movies all the live long day.
In hindsight this Halo Episode feels like the first half to a potentially longer Halo episode that he never bothered to finish.
It might have been. As soon as the video came out, he was mocked because funnily enough, Escapist is a gaming website and most gamers have played Halo. He was immediately called out for how stupid he was being and to this day it remains one of the dumbest pieces he's ever put together.

I'm convinced that the only reason Escapist didn't immediately yank the series, and in fact gave him a game commentary column with Jim and Yahtzee, was because of how much attention this video got for being retarded and getting people to watch it and comment on it. They probably got their money's worth from Bob's stupidity.
 
Simply, Bob does not argue that Halo is fascist, but posits that Halo is UNCONSCIOUSLY fascist.
"Unconsciously fascist/racist/sexist/whatever" is cowardly leftist speak for, "You're not doing anything that I can directly attack so I have to make something up to justify my attacks on you."

The only take more retarded is, "dogwhistle." If what I'm saying is supposed to be some super-secret fascist/racist/sexist code word, and you hear it while the supposed targets don't, what does that make you?

What I'm saying is Robert has no rational basis for hating Halo, and seems to be aware that saying, "I hate Halo because people I hate like it," isn't the way to get views.

A key way of understanding Bob's video on Halo is watching Bob's previous video on First Person Shooters. He hates them and the people who play them. Bob was hoping his video on Halo would contribute to Halo being "cancelled" in the Social Justice sense. This would allow cartoony platformers like Mario and Donkey Kong to retake their proper place as the greatest games in America. Basically what I am saying is, MovieBob sucks.
 
I don't even LIKE Lil' Benjy Shapiro, but I can still acknowledge that he's highly intelligent.
He also has a wife, kids, presumably his own house, runs a business, executive produced movies, and he's been filmed hanging out with other people discussing issues with him while they at least pretend to like him.

Bob can't even claim half of that.

oooh, I remember that video.
Back on the screwattack website (where his GameOverthinker videos were pulbished) so many people told him that he was so full of shit and just plain wrong.
I think it was at that moment that I understood that he was a very very stupid man and blinded by his Nintendo fanboyism.

I think it's down to Fanboyism like you sad. He was mad that Halo (sorta) usurped Mario. Except not really. People still played Nintendo, albeit less, when Halo launched. And when the 360 rolled around, the Wii with Mario sold like hotcakes. I'm not even partial to Mario Bros, but I have SMB Galaxy from when I was a kid. Bob is just a ultra consoomer.

The people over at ScrewAttack (even Craig himself) called Bob out for being a literal retard which is why Bob fucked off SA and is still a retard to this day

I think there is more to it than that. Back in the old website he put together as a teenager, he mentioned liking plenty of FPS game. I often theorized that the real reason why he hates FPS games so much is that they eventually jumped from being solely PC exclusives and started to really dominate their share of the console market.

That and the fact that he hates the demographics that like FPS games.

Bob tends to personify FPS players as stereotypical jocks and bullies from children's shows. So that hatred of his imagined typical FPS player probably morphed into hatred of the FPS genre as a whole. To the point where he thinks FPS players are mouthbreathers who are incapable of playing a game for its story with his snarkass "who plays Halo for the context?" comment despite Halo having a dedicated lore community and an ongoing series of novels giving the games context.

Yeah, this is a pattern with Bob. He starts out liking something (it can be a director, or an individual movie) or being indifferent to it. Then it crosses some invisible line known only to him. I'll use a director as an example, Scott Snyder. Bob really liked Sucker Punch, a lot. So, at the time, I think he liked Scott Snyder:


However, now Snyder is on Bob's "Serious Enemies List." What happened? Honestly, I think it's due to his DC movies competing with Marvel movies, but I'm not 100% sure. It may have started before that.

Zack Snyder became normie culture is what happened. The jocks and bullies became fans of Snyder's work after Batman v. Superman, especially with the "Release the Snyder Cut" trend following the Justice League movie. So naturally Bob shifted his opinion to be the polar opposite, because agreeing with jocks and dudebros means you're wrong in his mind.

This is a wonderful watch. Right off the bat he tells you that he doesn't hate FPS games he just dislikes them but not as much as real sports games. He does make some good points and by that I mean he echoes the same exact thing everyone else was complaining about in the 2010s that the FPS genre was saturated in desaturated Call of Duty clones. He complains about chuds in Xbox waiting rooms before that term existed. I wanna point out that Bob never was part of those racist, homophobic, misogynistic waiting rooms. He got all his information about them second hand. However what stopped me dead in my tracks and made me wanna sperg out was Bob saying that FPSs were not immersive to him because he's too scared to fight. That is not an exaggeration or me playfully misquoting him. He can pretend to be John Wayne or John Rambo popping skulls or getting blown up but to be super soldier Bob Chipman is just too far. Bob, and I am quoting him here, "would be fleeing madly in the opposite direction" if he was in any kind of conflict. So was Bob lying in this video or was he lying in his claims of being in bar fights or when he says things like "I've found a closed fist to be a solid start"?

Curious.

And as if he couldn't get dumber he segues into virtual reality and declares the only reason it never caught on is because "immersion is all about artificially engaging the senses and humans have five". He lists the five senses and does it out of order from what's on the screen which is hilariously bush league. According to Bob's logic, books should never have caught because they're barely visual and movies should've gone the way of the dodo because you can only see and hear Mary Jane in the rain and not smell her hair nor feel her recoil from your touch.

Bob finds new and interesting ways to impress me with his silliness. He is my favorite cow of all.

My guess: Moviebob is a devout member of the James Gunn cult.

:thinking:
Hmm, I wonder is Bob actually a tough guy in real life or is he a physical coward? It's quite a mystery.
