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.

I can: Moviebob.

That world require bob to have had ANY success

 

[Positron]

It must be something with english and theater majors.

I suspect it has something to do with "You can do anything you put your mind to" style of teaching children. It probably also led to STEM majors, of all people, think they can become the opposite sex.

It's called purple prose. Robert uses it to seem smarter than he really is.

Purple prose is the least of his writing problems. It is the rampant, gratuitous and off-base pop-culture references ("Street Fighter - Legend of Chun-Li" -- 28May#06), the attempts at sarcasm without a proper set-up, and the sheer incoherence, that make Bobese sui generis.

28May#06
Bobby counts himself "EASILY in the upper-tier of 'well-adjusted' for my ridiculous industry." Perhaps it says something about said "industry".

Bob: "I'm well-adjusted. Compared to you, I walk between the raindrops."
Rando: "You're so fat, it's a miracle you walk between anything."
Bob: "Hah! You're so stupid, you failed to comprehend my impeccable reference to a shitty Street Fighter movie from 15 years ago! Therefore, your insult has lost its sting and I emerge the victor!"
Also Bob: *frantically stabbing the block button*

As @Positron said, Bob's insistence on using obscure references that literally only he gets is one of his more annoying linguistic habits. He's obviously using them as an attempt to show off his breadth of knowledge, but all they end up doing is making him look like he's spouting nonsense, especially when he refuses to actually explain them when people are dumbfounded at what he's saying.

28May#11
Tony Goldmark again. Continued from 27May#22. Bobby envisages Youtube to be the nursery where Luminaries of Media Literacy such as himself will graduate to film and TV.

"...social media 'news' has actually been a DISASTER for actual information, education and public knowledge..." Guess what Bobby consumes? Even a trust-fund baby like Goldmark understands more about life's vicissitudes than Bobby does. This ought to tell you how far Bobby's head is up his own ass.

God, there's so much to unpack here. If this isn't a clear view into the mind of Bob Chipman, I don't know what is.

So we're building off of the previous conversation where Bob is angy about how his life hasn't panned out the way he wanted it to, how he wants to be in the industry so bad yet can't escape his YouTube purgatory. Now, we have more insight into how he thinks internet video should work. In summation, he wants it to act as the proving grounds from which "fresh voices" (that is to say, Bob; he doesn't actually care if anyone else does) can get picked up and put into the film industry, while those that wash out end up back down in the online wasteland. Meanwhile, he thinks that there are malevolent forces at play that seek to replace the traditional industry with online content solely for profit motives. Cool it with the antisemitic remarks, Bob!

But as we've seen many times (and as Bob himself has pointed out!), internet stuff rarely actually translates to the traditional industry. How many times have people who were internet famous gotten a TV or movie deal, only for it to turn out like absolute dogshit? If it actually worked the way he wanted it to, then something like Smiling Friends would be the norm, not the exception.

Skipping over yet another unhinged Trump rant, we get to the latest entry in the "this looks like it came out of a serial killer's manifesto" collection. Bob the futurist believes that the unwashed masses are stealing the future he deserves, the future he earned, from him. And I just have to quote this line verbatim for posterity: "And I will either get it back or...I don't even know what happens after that 'or' - but I bet it's bad." Tell me that doesn't sound like he's about ready to go on a murder spree. Pair that with "you're trying to find a nicer way to tell me to 'get over it' and...No. Not anymore." and you've got yourself a lovely little psycho manifesto.

Tony is right in that life isn't fair, we all have to work with the cards we're dealt, and even if you do everything right it still might not work out. But these words are falling on deaf ears. Bob will never acknowledge that he's more to blame for how his life has turned out than a million mayoghouls.

28May#12
Blade. As King Dead just said, Bobby cannot bear the thought that Feige might be less than Almighty

Bobby might still be rebuilding his basement, but the world has long recovered from covid.

The biggest problem was trying to tie Blade into the rest of the MCU. It may be a Marvel comic, and the character may have had crossovers with other series in the comics, but thematically he just doesn't gel with the film continuity, which is very much more cosmic-oriented.

Like I said before, it's one of the easiest movies to write: Blade kills a shitload of vampires. Boom, done. The fact that they've got a 500-ton MCU weight around their neck is what's fucking them over, not the coof.

28May#24

Chemotherapy is life-saving, albeit imperfect, medicine. Tranny procedures are not. In a sane society, we would not be chopping off working genitalia and pumping people full of the wrong hormones to satisfy their mental delusions.

Also, I'm pretty sure that nowhere in the Bible does it say that God doesn't want us to practice medicine. Illness is not inflicted upon us by God, it comes from this being an imperfect world, and we're just having to deal with it the best we can. While not exactly related, Paul initially wanted to die earlier on in his ministry so he could be with Jesus sooner, but later he realized that it was more important to do as much work as he could while he was alive. In that regard, I think God doesn't really care if we take medicine to help us continue to live Christian lives, but he'd definitely be upset about troon shit.

 

[Arthur Morgan]

Is Bob capable of grasping that maybe his Star Trek future wasn't stolen away from him by somebody else, but that it was all fictional bullshit that was never literally promised in the first place?

I can't believe no one has posted this clip at him yet.

And fuck Bob for thinking that Youtube's primary function should be for Hollywood to pull people from.

He probably also thinks that the only reason we need novels anymore is for Hollywood to make movies out of them.

He was in a twitter conversation with Nash and one of them basically said movies were better than books because it takes longer to read a book than watch a movie. Pretty sure it was Nash, but I doubt Bob disagrees with him.

You wonder if it partly blew up because people thought he was affecting a character, like AVGN or (heh) Nostalgia Critic, only for the people who put feelers out to realize to their horror that, no, he really is that fucking nuts.

A lot of people assumed he was either playing a character or at least an exaggerated version of himself on Escapist since that's what Yahtzee and Sterling did. But then you follow him on twitter and realize no, that's the real him. As much as he'd like to pretend otherwise.

In the Bible, God does inflict plagues on sinners as punishment for egregious sins. It also talks about praying over the sick, but nowhere does it say to avoid doctors (Luke himself was a physician, and the woman with the discharge was an example of how poor medical knowledge was in the first century.) As for Paul, his view was, "If I live, I spread the Gospel, if I die, I go the Heaven. Either way, I can't lose."

Modern day Christians believe in the doctrine of "secondary causes"- the doctrine that these days God works through natural phenomena instead of directly causing miracles. This includes working through doctors to heal the sick.

The tranny stuff is humanity saying to God, "You made a mistake. You made me a man when I should've been a dainty schoolgirl. I'm going to correct that mistake." Deuteronomy also mentions that eunuchs are to be excluded from worship and society.

 

[Ralph Barnhardt]

People are upset about Star Wars introducing lightsaber whips. Bob mocks those people by showing lightsaber whips have been a thing for 41 years by showing a off a clip from a Shaw Brothers movie.

https://twitter.com/the_moviebob/status/1795779008279282165

The whip is three light saber segments held together by wire. Near the end of the clip, whip guy burns his armpit because he swings it around and catches it under his arm like a nunchuck. This is worse than when they put lightsaber cross guards on Kylo's ligtsaber. I was super confused by all of this that I went and looked up what the hell was going on. Apparently the new Star Wars tv show Acolyte is going to have a character use a lightsaber whip but instead of it making the slightest bit of sense like in the clip Bob posted it's just a whip. It's just a whip.

If I even cared anymore about this abomination of a universe I would be really annoyed that the character swings the lightsaber around like a regular lightsaber only for it to go into whip mode for no reason other than they got their flashy misdirect done and the further loss of any semblance of reality and rules. So not only is the clip Bob posted a joke, not only is it not even from fucking Star Wars, it's not even the same damn concept. I'm struggling to think of what to compare this idiocy to and the closest thing I can think of is Bob saying

"Street Fighter fans in 2024:
They made Chun-Li trans? The series is dead

Jackie Chan in a comedy crime fighting movie in 1993:"

The only thing I can even think that Bob is trying to do is trying to make this ridiculous thing look cool by comparing it to something only related to Star Wars in that it's parodying it. The problem is that most of us are not mentally stunted retards who are entertained by jingling, shiny things held in front of our faces. Enjoy your slop, Bob.

If this wasn’t made by Disney, Bob would be critical of this decision. He has been defending Star Wars ever since Disney bought the franchise.

And again, proves how much of a poser he is because light-whips have been in the Legends comics decades ago.


Star Wars fans are more annoyed this dumb idea just won't die no matter how often it's pointed out how dumb it is.

When even Star Trek realized something was too dorky for film, that was a clue not to do it.

 

[Jet Fuel Johnny]

Sometimes I read Bob's stupid shit and wonder if he calls himself a Futurist ONLY because that's what Tony Stark is called both at the end of Civil War and in the comics.

I bet he doesn't even really get what it means or why it is worthy of mockery.

It seems to me that Disney Star Wars philosophy is "how can we make lightsabers ever more cool and badass?" Truthfully, this kind of started in the prequel trilogy where they gave Yoda a lightsaber. Back on Dagobah, Yoda had a gnarled wooden stick. He was powerful because of his control of the Force. I'm not going to say "Lightsabers are silly weapons," but I will say, "Lightsabers are silly weapons if they aren't the weapon of a character that can also use the Force to deflect blaster fire."

I have absolutely no doubt that at Disney they believe the iconic Star Wars weapon, the lightsaber, is simply better than a blaster full stop. Unfortunately, I believe that is obviously incorrect, the reason lightsabers are cool is because they are the weapon of a Jedi.

Aside from the fact he believes in an entirely fictional future based on some fun space operas, what exactly is it that Bob thinks he has done to earn this future? I mean Bob is going into Green Goblin style rants, but the Green Goblin was actually a scientist who had accomplished great things before he went mad. Bob has a marginally successful social media career, and as far as I can tell he's never done any actually difficult work in his life.

you see, friendo, keeping my mouth shut will result in the Holy Soopeeryah Fyootchah not coming to pass! Only by tweeting furiously into the void that is this hellsite, can I convince Biden or whoevah to finally round up the MAGA CHUDs and gas them in Minecraft in the wastelands! Only then will there be my personal jetpack, wheat (grown by China), and my robot Ghost in the Shell Standalone Complex Body with the Mario-shka brain so I can bing bing wahoo forevah! - Bob, probably.

Because the powers-that-be TOTALLY need to have Bob's opinion on the matter on how to deal with the Obsolete Believer MAGAnaiseghoulen; after all, nobody's EVER thought of exterminating an entire political movement by mass murder before Bob came along! [/sarcasm

Unironically Bob believes this. This is why he's still rocking it at Ma Chipman's house like a CHAD.

Bob champions mediocrity. It's the strongest explanation.

Being real, Disney's creativity died the minute they bought star wars and killed Tron, right after making Tron Legacy, a amazing continuation of a otherwise goofy franchise. They literally revived, successfully, a tech demo, gave it a killer plot, then dropped it because they thought they never had to work again.

 

[Mac Monster]

Bob is the ultimate corpo dick sucker. Not a moment goes by where he isn't white knighting for some new, shitty product.

Disney's creativity died long before that, why do you think they bought Star Wars in the first place? Disney bought Marvel, Lucasfilm, Pixar and 20th Century Fox because Bob Iger is an unimaginative hack (fun fact: Iger's the one who basically killed Twin Peaks when he was President of ABC) and Disney's output prior to those acquisitions consisted mainly of shitty live action remakes of Disney's animated classics. They bought Pixar outright in particular because Iger was going around the parks one day and realised that most of the kids were more interested in Woody and Buzz than Mickey and Minnie.

I say Tron Legacy because it was one of the last good films from Disney, otherwise you're right.

It's weird because prior to the Disney buyout, Pixar was more about being for both audiences of kids and adults where they even tackle subjects that adults can relate to. The movies that came out from the mid-90s through the majority of the 2000s had cynical characters and settings that commentate on society. WALL-E was the final good movie from Pixar because it didn't have Disney or Bob Iger to fuck over their creativity. By the 2010s onward, they've been focused more on forgettable sequels and even their original movies are also bad

I say Tron Legacy because it was one of the last good films from Disney, otherwise you're right.

Tron Legacy was an underrated gem. Although I do have to rewatch John Carter to see if it was as forgettable and boring as I remembered
