How MrEnter can win back more Enterbots?

Make content I'm interested in. Being bitchy about cartoons is not something I am interested in.

You hit the nail on the head. He needs to talk about more stuff normal people would care about and be interested in, not fixating over the most dorky of topics all the time. I mean he can even talk about what kind of food he likes or just something else to break up the monotony in his content. Just anything to show me that he's actually a real person and not some loser nerd that never grew up.

 

[NostalgiaJazzAdmirer]

Another thing I think he can do is not shout so loudly.

 

[Marionette]

So I decided to stop by Enter's YouTube just to see what new things he's reviewed and I saw he finally "talked" about Where the Dead Go To Die which is one of my favorite movies because it's so awful, so badly animated, so taboo and clearly pushing every button for shock value that I can't help but love it.

I hate giving Enter any views or even listening but fuck it I wanted to hear this.

What amuses me already is that he doesn't like to watch it because of the nudity. Disregard all the rape, bestiality, genital mutilation, incest, child porn, gore, ect. So he basically just goes on for 11 minutes saying that he doesn't understand it, how disgusting it is and how it's below reviewing. He acts like the movie gave him PTSD and then tells his fans not to give it any attention... Thus giving it attention.

And it sort of hit me that Enter doesn't understand artistic direction or a lot of adult themes. This shouldn't come as a shock to a man who reviews cartoon ponies and believes Spongebob has some of the worst torture porn in existence. However, I've realized Enter never reviews the quality of animation or anything on a technical level because he doesn't know the first thing about it. Thus, he has to stick with the only thing he knows which is the story and what is presented to him. If he doesn't like it or he doesn't understand it, it's already bad. He views everything on just the surface or burrows into his own traumatic experiences to justify why something is or isn't good. For someone who reviews something, this is a huge no. He really is just a big child, watching cartoons and then acting like he's actually the adult in the situation which insight and declares if it is worthy.

It's about as effective dropping a teenage kid on instagram into a war zone and expecting riveting journalism.

The point is Enter doesn't have a fucking clue what he's talking about.

This is why I refuse to support anything he does. When you've thrown yourself into a business, spent thousands of dollars and years on education, developed mild arthritis from just drawing to do what you love and then look and see someone your own age with no knowledge of the subject matter thinking he's hot shit, it pisses me off. Sorry for the slight ALog but it's true. It's why Growing Around will NEVER happen, as long as he's the one in control. He's worked out a good support group on the same mindset and maturity as him to pander to but as I said in an earlier post, that's about the lowest form of audience you can have. Unless he decides to educate himself and actually grow up and take the world on like an adult he won't get any new or former viewers back. He's a kid, appealing to an audience of kids. He might be able to drag in more people who are also stuck in the mind of an eight year old but any sane adults looking for engaging or insightful commentary are out of his league.

There's always going to be that lowest of the low audience and I suppose as long as someone is listening to you it's working but in my eyes and in the eyes of a lot of people he's just a kid who's found a used condom, gathered all the other kids to form a circle around it and comment on how disgusting it is but don't actually know a thing about it, why it's there and won't touch it without a three foot long stick.

There's way too much stuff he would have to change in order to win me over.

You can't stop him from talking about cartoons, but doing that isn't inherently a bad thing. There are plenty of people who are successful in talking about cartoons and animation, but the overall tone of Entard's videos are seriously way too whiny. Even when he's trying to praise something he usually just uses that as an excuse to complain about something else (like the Trolls video or when he rarely praises Spongebob). He thrives off of negativity and it just makes him look like an angry sperg. He needs to stop treating cartoons like they're a personal attack against him and overreacting when he sees something he doesn't like. He could stand to make more Admirable Animation videos instead of reviewing Teen Titans, Family Guy and Spongebob for the 100th time.

And it sort of hit me that Enter doesn't understand artistic direction or a lot of adult themes.

This is every opinion I have about Enter. These "reviews" really just boil down to nothing more than Enter's personal opinion on a cartoon. He lives in his little mindset, one that doesn't change ever. Anything remotely different to his mindset or out of place would either: a) go over his head or b) call it gross and made him hate the entire thing. If he were to watch something like End of Evangelion, he'd probably just shut it off after the first scene in Asuka's hospital room.

This.

I've noticed his view on conflict and comedy in stories is incredibly narrow and almost childlike. If a character has done nothing wrong then clearly nothing bad is allowed to happen to them and if something bad does come upon them then the episode is bad. And obviously no humor can come from someone getting hurt this way. Is that not how a child would think?

 

[Alex Krycek]

Getting back on topic, I'd be a fan if he made videos relevant to my interests. I'm not really interested in many child cartoons or his terrible idea for one. Maybe if it was a show I had nostalgia for I'd watch his review of it, or if it was a review of a show I actually watch.

The funny thing is that he's limited himself to a certain group of cartoons because he refuses to review anything that was made before he was born. So, a lot of classic cartoons will apparently never be reviewed.

If he could compress his reviews by only highlighting important bullet-points, rather than going into extensive detail over various unimportant nitpicks, I might enjoy his reviews. If he didn't yell and he learned to edit a little better I might enjoy his reviews.

yes but if he watched older cartoons then he wouldn't have time to watch new spongebob and complain about it

 

[The Perplexing Ms. Escape]

Mr. Enter's "problems" far exceed what is possible for him to fix. His main flaw is his ego, oh god that ego. He seems to think that restarting from scratch is never a good thing an that you should keep something even if it isn't working out. His videos are godawful and rips off Nostalgia Critic's "style" (he even uses NC clips for Christ's sake) while making it somehow much worse. His video's are low quality and nitpicky with very little sound critique. Another thing is that its VERY obvious he is a brony from the loads of MLP references he puts into his videos and it detracts from the point he was making. There is another Brony critic that I liken to Enter, except done right. Digibro (formerly Digibrony) is an animation critic except with Anime instead of Western Cartoons who started as a MLP episode reviewer, like enter. The difference between the two is his videos are nice looking, not bogged down with awful "jokes", have well stated points, and lack any type of screaming or childish statements. If Enter could fix all of this, yes I would more than likely follow him, but as it stands, I will never watch Enter and see him as a good "critic".

 

[CatParty]

Most of us don't like him, I know, but what would he have to do to make you into an Enterbot or even just a fan?

Alternate title: What would MrEnter have to do to make you into an Enterbot?

stop being a filthy brony autist for one

All this. Digibro is one of the humblest mother fuckers and though I'm not a fan of his, he does great work.

If you ever wanted a polar opposite of Enter, there you have it.

I'd say that something Enter should definitely do is be more professional in general. Even if it's just a side hobby, he needs to take his material seriously if he intends to publish it.
His videos are poorly edited. His constant sperging needs to be cut. His tantrum about naming his dog Patrick is a prime example of his lack of quality control. He either exaggerated himself for sympathy, which only made him look silly, or he legitimately got upset and opted not to cut it out and re-record. A lot of Enterbots find this to be a powerful moment, but the truth is that he's not doing these videos live. If he was, that'd be one thing. But instead it just shows a low effort on his part to maintain control over himself and his reviews.
I don't have a really solid, definitive example off the top of my head, but I find myself constantly groaning about his lack of research. I remember watching his video about his favorite cartoon themes, where he complained that the Steven Universe theme was too short. Instead of saying "Hey, I wonder why this theme is so abnormally short, let me look up the show's information" he just stuck it on the list. Which is a problem that comes with doing a video about some 20 shows, which is a mistake on his part. You shouldn't do a video about 20 different shows if you're not willing to put the effort in to even look them up on Wikipedia.
And even in his writing there's glaring problems. I read the first chapter of Little Cassie and it's very clear that he didn't go through it before posting it up. It reads like a draft.
And of course, we all noticed how horribly he went about casting the voice actors for his show.

If you're going to put it up for an audience, you need to polish your work. Especially if you're someone like Mr. Enter, who spergs and nitpicks little things. It's probably the most irritating thing for me about Enter. I wouldn't say even a hobbyist should behave the way he does, so the fact that he takes his work so seriously while still half-assing it is so groan worthy.

He kind of reminds me of Piero Scaruffi with his lack of editing. Scaruffi has two excuses though. The first is that he's Italian, so his understanding of the English language isn't very good. His Italian sections of his site are well edited, but his English sections are edited and translated by other people.

The second thing is that he has literally thousands of articles on his website, and he's researched every single article he's published. His opinions on music aren't popular, but he justifies them pretty well most of the time.

Piero once said that the reason that he never worked on music himself, despite having an encyclopedic knowledge of it, is because he believes that just because somebody can put out the flaws in certain music does not mean that the person can create great music. I feel as though that applies to Enter and he is unwilling to accept that.

 

[Jewelsmakerguy]

At this point, there's only three things Enter can do:

- Improve both his behavior and production values and stop acting like a moron over ever stupid thing SpongeBob does. He should also drop the so-called "restrictions" list, it'd make him much less of a hypocrite considering he's reviewed things with low budgets (Elf Bowling, Hunchback II, even SpongeBob and MLP, which were made with TV-scale budgets).
- Stop his reviews and cartoon all together and rethink his life as a whole.
- Keep acting like a dumb sperg and hemorrhaging subscribers and former fans left and right.

And at this point, I don't expect either of the first two options to happen any time soon.

This bothers me so much. His videos are effortless. His scripts are lazy, his editing is lazy and he makes absolutely no effort to control himself when speaking. He yells all the fucking time. It is very possible he is acting, but knowing Enter the anger is probably genuine. It really is not hard to control your voice when recording, and if it sounds too spergy then fucking rerecord it. His laziness in his scriptwriting is also really apparent in his Admirable Animation videos. More often than not he's just giving a summary on an episode's plot instead of saying why its good. It is very rare he will actually go into detail and even when he does they're usually just very small details.

His sloppy editing is a factor towards his videos being visually uninteresting. He never even attempts to shake it up from him talking over a repeating clip of a cartoon. He can't even be bothered to make credits for his videos, they just all abruptly end with no transition and sometimes no real conclusion either. Its just maddening to me that he puts so little effort into editing when it would not be that difficult to improve it at all.

I have a list of shows Entard could focus on - too bad I don't want him talking about those fucking shows - he's too much of a fuckup/pussy-ass bitch to handle them...

Eh... Maybe he should quit reviewing shit - that'll be better for him.

If he reviewed non-animated movies I'd ask him to review A Serbian Film. Let's see him complain about how cartoons are disturbing after seeing that.

Actually, has he ever seen Watership Down?

Nope - probably too busy being a ponyfag.
