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.

This is the other thing that bugged me about later Star Wars, the insistence on lightsabers even if it made no sense foe the weilder.

Like Kit Fisto with his head full of tendrils? A lightsaber is insane and just begging to injure him. Why not something like a pair of light daggers? Or with a wookie? Why not just give him a big energy shield to block shots until he's close enough to just pick up and toss around his target?

(Heck I'll even admit Yoda is probably the only one for whom a light-wip would make halfway sense because he's so small.)
In the first movie, Obi Wan implies that Lightsabers are outdated and mostly kept around for ceremonial reasons, but of course, that isn't marketable.

My dude, if you hire an 8 foot tall diversity hire pit-bull alien creature like a Wookie, you don't draw the line at giving it a laser sword. You're well in for a penny at that point.
I think the major reason is because I'm fairly sure a sort of forgotten part of the prequels is that like, the Jedi weren't even meant to be on the front lines, except as military advisors. Maybe the EU wiped that but I remember my friends showing me the clone wars and I'm watching some 13 year old orange girl in a firefight wondering if her friends back home were just meditating and doing little rock gardens and shits. Giving the Wookie a custom made 13 foot great saber only they are able to wield is too cool for the guys wearing cloaks and practicing celibacy.
 
Been a while since I've checked in on ol' Bob.

What group of people does he want to genocide now these days?
Bob has a Book of Life. The names written in his book shall be saved, those he hasn't written in it shall be damned. All Hail Bob!
Bob, it's your people running Netflix you know. Your side. Of course, Netflix was built on physical media, but perhaps that just means they understand the danger to their monopoly by allowing the local public library to show their movies to poor people.

About Mexico's (((new management)))

there's an AWFUL LOT of Nazi NDPers, according to Bob's and his retwat's definition, just sayin. In amongst the (D)'s too.

Jesus, he's slow. This shit happened weeks ago.

oh boy. Blue curtains, here we come.

Oldsmobiles were available until 2004. They didn't die instantly after the late 80s ad campaign. I never, EVER, and I mean EVER, hear anyone complain about the Oldsmobile ads that Bob is referring to. GM was experiencing some financial difficulties that also led to them scrapping the hugely popular Pontiac brand (and keeping Chevy instead, lol) during the financial crisis of 2008 (thanks, Obama Clinton!) The brand was actually already in decline before the campaign - which didn't help, obviously, but I think it was something that nothing could have solved, given that GM had gotten lazy and a lot of their cars back then had electrical issues. Bob's being way too autistic here too; not everybody is so autistic they immediately go to "WTF DID YOU SAY ABOUT MY DAD?!" when presented with a concept that something isn't as old and stodgy as something your boomer parents like. It's the same kind of autism that gave him the visceral reaction to the Apple ad. When I saw it I didn't react like Bob did. Sure, I was kinda disappointed that things were being crushed in an industrial press to make a point (to condense it into a brand new Ipad), but hey, shit gets destroyed all the time on movie sets. Now if they'd done it using CG animation, that would have been different, although Bob probably would have reacted the same way.
 
I'm not usually a conspiracy guy most conspiracies can easily be debunked with a little research. But I have to admit Fauci and the Governments misinformation about Covid as it was happening got me wondering. Because I swear, they scrubbed a video from the Internet during the pandemic I saw a video online of Fauci from the early 80's and I can't find it since to the point I beginning to think it was a Mandela Effect where I imagined it.

It's an interview from the early days of AIDS like it might have still been referred to as GRID (Gay Related Immune Deficiency). Fauci was suggesting that Gays should be quarantined for Public Safety. I wonder how Blobby, and his ilk would feel if a video of Fauci ever surfaced of him suggesting gays should be taken to detention camps.

It also fell in line with Chrysler axing Plymouth and the slow, inexorable decline of Mercury over at Ford that eventually killed it too.

The fundamental issue was, those who were brand-loyalists? Who bought ONE make of car and NO OTHERS? They were all old folk who died off or aged out of car buying by the 21st Century, and it no longer made sense to have duplicated parallel production lines for cars that used 90% of the same parts anyway, with only the grilles and taillights being different.

The ad campaign in question didn't kill Oldsmobile, it just failed to save it. "Kids" didn't buy an Olds because their Dad had one, it was because they just didn't want one and they never were able to come up with a brand identity beyond "just another version of a car that Pontiac and Chevy styled better".

Also, the 80's were when "imports" mopped the floor with US makers, kids got used to the idea that you could own a car not made in Detroit and it not only wouldn't be shit, it would be BETTER. (Compounded by BMW and Mercedes moving into the yuppie/first time buyers market and breakign the old orthodoxy that a luxury car was just big and flashy, it now meant it was nimble, sporty and comfortably mid-sized, there was no way to extract handling from a 5,300 lb Lincoln Town Car)

Those brands were on borrowed time since the arrival of the Honda Civic, they just didn't finally die until the early 00's when the last guys who "always bought an "X" " bought their last cars.

Bobby thinks Alan Ng of Film Threat is beneath him -- but then who isn't?

Alan: "This thing we were talking about six months ago is still true, and we have even more data to back it up."
Bob: *shits his pants*

It's rich of him to make fun of people for rehashing the same topics when that's literally all he ever does.
That's not very Superior Future of you, Bob. Netflix provided a much more convenient service at a lower price point than comparable options, and that caused it to be a massive success. It's the same thing that happened with countless other things: if you make a better product, people will pay for it and abandon the old. You can't just dictate that people not use a newer, better thing just because you don't like it, nor can you imply it's some grand cultural failing that nobody else sees things like you do.

That said, as someone who retains a fondness for physical media due to streaming services being able to make shit disappear constantly, it is pretty stupid that Netflix refuses to budge on physical releases. They could be making some extra cash and allowing people to directly support creatives whose content they enjoy, but instead all they're doing is making piracy the only option to ensure you always have the ability to watch something.
I was going to bring up the F2P angle with regards to Bob's Costco hotdog analogy (of course he can only relate to things through food), but someone in the replies already did.

Also, Bob proves too stupid to understand what a loss leader is. All he sees is $1.50 hotdogs and thinks that's all they need to do to stay in business.

If Tony Goldmark were elected president, he would turn a lot of people into dog food.

I'm pretty sure that nearly everybody on the planet has at least once deflected when they've done something that makes others upset, Tony and Bobbo included. Unintentionally, Tony's genocidal fantasy has actually surpassed Bob's usual.

What Zelensky is actually saying is, "quit making us all look bad, the gravy train is gonna stop if people realize that we're not a bunch of innocents being slaughtered by evil bad guys."
Jesus, he's slow. This shit happened weeks ago.

Talk about striking while the iron is cold.

Bob has the same problem that Jim Sterling has, taking so long to produce a video on a topic that whatever he was talking about has become entirely irrelevant. He's frequently brought up how some new events happening have forced him to go back and rewrite his draft script over and over again (I particularly remember this from the constant debacles with The Flash), as though he needs to be sure that every single statement in his video will remain completely factual years later. He'd be better served if he just stopped, made the video, posted it, and then revisited it later if things changed. Not only would he have a more steady content flow, but his videos also would be timely to the events they're talking about.

But he doesn't have that excuse for this one. This is referring to a single ad and the reactions to it, things that wouldn't really update much past that first day or so, and the topic is pretty simple ("whether Apple meant to or not, this ad implied they were crushing the tools of creativity into a bland, formless block"). I mean, he was so fucking angry over the ad, you'd think it would take him maybe a day to compose his thoughts and knock out a video. Nope, literally weeks, after everybody forgot about it and moved on to some new outrage.

And you wonder why your channel is dying, you fucking retard.

And mediocre production values tend to be more easily overlooked when the content is timely, alongside it naturally allowing you to produce 3-4x the content about a topic. Nobody cares much if you're just talking into a camera in your office when the thing in question just happened this morning. People will watch every update from every content creator on a topic they're interested in, especially if the events are still unfolding - folks love different takes or just hearing more about the thing, and frankly have lower standards for 'completeness' as well. You'll get a bit of shit if you miss a major detail, but that's just a free update vid for tomorrow now, and nobody will remember by the end of the week.

Meanwhile, your all encompassing review of the subject is late, everyone heard it talked over dozens of times and the convo has moved on, there's nothing new to be discovered or insightful to be said, and any mistakes you make are going to be viewed far more critically as "all the information is already out there". Current Media is probably one of the worst spaces to be slow and measured on, you'll just be left behind.

The gold chain really ties everything together.
For me it's the tiny big eyes and 12 inch thick glasses.
Originally, I thought the lightsaber was meant to be an impractical weapon used as part of an ancient training tradition. So, I didn't really question why Jedi's were skilled with a weapon that doesn't really fit in a world with things like blasters and missile launchers.
The lightwhip doesn't seem to fit the fake physics that allows lightsabers to exist in Star Wars.
Its a more civilized weapon in the sense that its a weapon for deterrence and defense, not offense.
Modified lightsabers like Mauls and Kylo's were aiming to increase the combat use of the saber over its defensive properties, an inherent corruption of the weapon towards the offensive and one of the few things the sequels got right about Kylo. But the extended fandom went nuts with fancier and fancier lightsabers because of course a Jedi or Sith were at their coolest when they were fighting and killing shit. Bringing us to the Light Whip, a completely bizarre, trying-too-hard weapon at this point.
The original films made it seem almost an exclusively Anakin/Obi-Wan thing. Yoda didn't use them, nor did the Emperor, who was actually rather dismissive of them. He does say "a yes, a Jedi's weapon" when he takes Luke's from Vader, but outside of him and Obi-Wan few even know about them, which would be odd in a relatively recently changed world order. Only thirty years prior you allegedly had millions of Jedi dueling with robots. No one today has forgotten Desert Storm, let alone the footage of drone attacks. I'm going to chalk it up to classic Lucas writing by the seat of his pants. It makes far more sense as a strange weapon cultivated by a few that dates back potentially thousands of years that nobody even recognizes and is used chiefly as a symbol for the wielder.

But it's a highly marketable symbol, and one people think is very cool. If they are going to be half-way tasteful, the whip would be portrayed like in Dark Souls; a piece of shit main, but a decent support in the off-hand to distract, ensnare, deflect, etc. Basically Wonder Woman's lasso.

The quadruple model looks like something Nerf would put out. Very cool!
You could say that it started the chain reaction that led to the October Revolution six decades later
Ackshually, February Revolution. Most historians agree something like that was almost inevitable and accelerated by the Great War. The Bolshevik October coup was just a group of unpopular upstarts mad that they were beaten in the elections.
 
I thought it was more "Hey fucker, quit musclening on my racket! Im one whos supposed to keep demanding guns and money! The attention is mine, not yours!"
A little of both, honestly. Zelensky has been complaining for months now that he's not getting enough money, but people are rightfully wondering what the point of sending it is when it's clear the Russkies aren't getting demolished like our wonderful leaders said they would be. And now with a second conflict that Congress keeps voting to send billions to, those questions are getting more commonplace. If the grift stops for one, it could very well stop for the other.

I don't think he really has to worry though, our government has zero concept of money and will keep shoving more their way until the whole thing collapses. It's more important to be on the Right Side of History, after all.

It's a similar case to the robes Obi Wan wears. In the first film they're presumably just simple robes that the locals wear, since Luke's uncle is also wearing them. Yet in the prequels they're the standard outfit all Jedi use. Which makes you wonder why Obi Wan is still using them since he's supposed to be in hiding.

The series definitely Flanderizes as it goes on, and that was solidified by TFA - literally no one changes in the 30 years from RotJ. General Leia wears princess robes and is a Rebel general. Han Solo is a smuggler who wears a leather jacket and white shirt. Chewbacca is hairy. Jedi = Lightsaber.

I don't think you're wrong. I had this meme from back in 2020.

Also I found this video on him handling AIDs:

And an hour long documentary he made back in the early '80s:

But I can't find anything about him advocating quarantining the gays. There may be something in the Covid happenings thread, but I'm not sure.

This is peak bugman consoomer.
Robert has nothing beyond consooming. I'd bet he'd sell his own family out for a chance to consoom the new product early.
