Check out this dope cake James' wife baked bought from Wegmans to celebrate the 200th episode.
That's a very sad cake, goddamn. It reminded me of memology of all people; you see, on his past two birthdays he has posted pictures of cakes that his wife has made for him, which were very elaborate and nice to look at. And here we have this important milestone that they have achieved (even if it was reached with low effort crap) and that shit cake is the best that his wife could bought for this important ocassion? Shiiiiit man. His wife doesn't give a single fuck (not that he does).
All this situation is so sad to me, I came here with the idea to just shit on the slobs since they're one of the main reasons the channel's drop in quality, but nope, James is as guilty as them and that is... depressing.
 
Maybe I'm too cynical or depressed, but I'm at the point that I feel like I should be making a video where I have one of those little plastic bubble vending machines with little toys in the plastic bubbles off to the side, and a Wizardry V cardboard standee next to it as I do a video saying I'm not going to watch the 200th episode. I purposefully missed a few recently already. I just don't have any faith in this anymore.

i remember back in like 2009ish when a new AVGN coming out was like an EVENT. It was like, go to the store, buy some snacks, tell your online friends to fuck off and watch the newest AVGN. I remember even rewatching the video the next day. Now adays? I can't even stand to finish a single episode, others I just skip entirely. JonTron vids are the new AVGN experience for me now.

Dose feels.
I haven't seem much of Jontron and for some reason my brain won't remember his name past he fact he's had a hard time with some people. However every time I have seen him I could tell from moment one, he actually has enthusiasm for what he's doing and his work. Eff you, james, I hate what you've become. I want to stuff pepsi down your throat in rolling rock bottles.


James' comment "You can curse on this podcast, right?" Say's a lot. It's obvious that he just doesn't give a fuck anymore.
First time watching one of these from beginning to end. They look and sound like three boomer ass faggot upper management guys from 1992 talking about seeing the sitcom Home Improvement for the first time. So lame.
 
Just out of curiosity....did he say something like that or is this one of those cinnemassacre truth things that get repeated enough it becomes fact?
He definitely said it.

Edit: Added actual photo

This film is so bad that you can't even find clips on youtube or memes based on it around the internet, as the film never existed at all.

It's kind of scary, there're films made in the 70s with no budget that managed to garner some cult following in the internet age, but the AVGN film remains completely unknown, not even the truthers managed to make any joke or meme about it after all these years.

Put it in mind, I can quote every single line of the Minecrap brown bricks video but I can't recall any scene of the AVGN movie at all. That's a beautiful irony, Mike made this retard video to fill the gaps of the Cinemassacre's upload schedule when James was too busy with his film, just for it to become several times more memorable and iconic than a film that cost 300 thousand times more. Fucking hilarious.
 
Screenwave's selling the AVGN Movie on DVD for $2 because nobody wants it hahahahahaha:

Maybe it's my autism, but I looked up on steam to see what you could buy for under $2 that's worth more than this. If I saw right, you could get a sale on the original Just Cause and a bunch of other stuff. Don't know how long that will last.
The thing is I also went to wikipedia. It says lloyd kaufman was in the movie. I know he was in one episode about the toxic crusader, but does james know that lloyd has a connection to james gunn when he was making posts on I think either twitter or facebook about being in nambla and lloyd joining in about them liking nambla? I mean it could have been a joke, (I've seen the posts,) but IDK. I plead ignorance.

Fucking hilarious.
I have always found it hillarious that the only place I can find any clips of the AVGN movie are in the nostalgia critic video he made after the movie came out. I honestly would not be surprised if doug was one of the dozens of people to see that shitshow of a film.

The movie could have been good. The production value is pretty good for a movie that cost $300K. The problem was that it was a bad script. The second problem was shooting in L.A. as it has been mentioned. What needed to happen is that James and his friend/co-director/possibly the REAL director needed to prune that fucking script. They needed to be challenged. Someone needed to say "Hey, what is the purpose of this zombie scene at a carnival? What is the purpose of this mecha fight scene? What is the purpose of this scene where they're at this guy's house and suddenly it's a Mario style fortress?" Some kind of feedback from an objective 3rd party would have done wonders.

To be fair, DVDs have no value in 2021. This movie is still not even worth $2 and was a huge missed opportunity.

Depends on the movie. They still have some value and they're still made for a reason. Blu-ray players are backwards compatible after all.

The film was total garbage and from what /tv/ and /v/ says James was a stupid idiot and blew most of his budget filming in California so he could feel like a real pro flim maker. The plot is dumb, the props are That Guy with the glasses tier and the movie is very uninteresting to look at. It feels like a shitty fan made film or one of those low budget films on VHS spotlighted on RLM's Best of the Worst. Honestly it doesn't get enough hate. It was around that time I dumped interest in AVGN.

I understand what James was trying to do. He wanted to pay tribute to genres and other things that influenced him, many of which led to him starting Cinemassacre in the first place. It was just way too fucking broad and they didn't clash well with each other. It should have been more about paying tribute to the video game industry and the culture that grew out from it.

I also think the film was hurt when the Atari video game burial urban legend that the film's plot was based around was proven to be true only a few months before it was released. You would think that it would generate more interest in the film. But that story being proven true seemed to more kill the interest and fascination that a lot of people had in that urban legend. Almost instantly too.

Yeah, like, I remember reading positive reception to it, but never anything specific. Like tons of your usual "IT WAS SO HILARIOUS I LAUGHED SO HARD" but never saying what they actually laughed at. There wasn't a single memorable line in the entire movie despite it being full of attempts at memorable lines, and even among Cinemassacre fans, it was just never really discussed afterwards. Nobody truly enjoyed that movie.

To be fair, DVDs have no value in 2021.
They're not nearly as popular as they used to be, but they've still got a big enough collector's market. There's a whole odd thing with how a lot of movies have DVD versions with extras that are missing on the Blu-rays, and of course, streaming never comes with extras. So if you like that kinda thing, DVDs are most likely your only way to get those.

the NC review of AVGN the movie is far superior than the movie itself. Just watch that
