James Rolfe / James D. Rolfe / Angry Video Game Nerd (AVGN) / Rex Viper and Cinemassacre / Screenwave - Now with not much grieving about a 41-year old man still making videos on YouTube. We're the balls on the dick.

I will never understand the one time James had that autistic attachment to a dragon statue at some playground. View attachment 1929815

Wait, what? Is that real?

Holy shit what a find. I've never experienced such guilty laughter. Like it's obvious he's being serious, but that's what makes it so funny. I lost it at "the hospital where I was literally born." How are you "figuratively born?"

What was with the weird conspiracy theory in the second half? It was way too contrived to be funny.

We all have our own autistic dragons to chase, but I guess James' was literal.

while undoubtedly exceptional and faggy, at least he seemed to have "let it go" unlike most of the autistic spergs I come across on the internet (he could also really be playing it up for the "documentary" factor as well)

I think the biggest thing I take away from this is him calling *everything* he records a "film".

James considers everything he films a movie because that's what massacring cine means from his perspective. It's about making shitty movies with whatever you have at hand and that's it, so a "Cinemassacre movie" is more or less an excuse to have no real standards as long as you get something done.

Well that is something 90% of the people I have ever worked with indulge in.

Yeah he's a terrible actor, I'm sure the core of the story is probably real but he really cakes it on in this and it's hard to take as genuine.

This is the same guy who made conspiracy theories in AVGN episodes such as "Wizard and Super Mario Bros. 3", "Beetlejuice", "Hong Kong 97" and more.

It was probably funny the first time but as time goes on it's just unfunny.

He gets the prize of "least lolcow", of all the gamingtubers. And lord knows that is more impressive than it sounds when looking at the trainwreck all other faggots from his generation are.

I actually find it really sad how so many 80s kids have turned out to be disasters.

Nah, it's ok, rediscovering shit from your early childhood you barely remember can be a weird and overpowering experience.

A lot of people turned out to be disasters from every gen. Thats just normal but posting every detail about it online really did start with Millenials and zoomers are only getting worse.

You can even make a timeline of mental illness based on people's posts and online activity and match it to life events chronologically. Is fucked how documented it all is specially for meme personalities.

This "documentary" has brought alot of memes, his weird walk, the fact he lied (they werent destroying the dragon, just removed it, he plays it up like it was it's last day existing).

It was pretty obvious that whole part was fake. I don't know if this is true in America but don't workers put, you know, barriers around the places they're working? Do they really just leave their tools out in the open and just let a guy walk all over it?

I don't know if this is true in America but don't workers put, you know, barriers around the places they're working?

I mean, you would think so, but one time my friends and I walked into a half-finished private playground (for a day care center) to play on it when no one was there, and all we had to do was walk across a field (from the public playground no less) because they didn't put fencing around the back half. Which was only just weak, flimsy, plastic temporary fencing anyways. And on multiple different occasions, in a completely different state, a different group of friends and I walked through a half-finished house in our neighborhood when no one was there. And there wasn't even fencing around the house at all.

So no, the idea that James could walk right up and ask some workers if he could have 5 minutes with the dragon sprinkler they were in the process of moving isn't that particularly weird or unusual.

I kind of wish that Mike Matei did more reviews like Elmo in Grouchland because they’re so bad that they end up being hilarious. It’s far better than the cynical garbage we see from film reviewers usually.

This is the same guy who made conspiracy theories in AVGN episodes such as "Wizard and Super Mario Bros. 3"

For what it's worth that episode was primarily about The Wizard, and the SMB3 conspiracy was just supposed to be an amusing lead-in to the next episode. Which was all about the various NES (mostly) accessories, with the exception of the power glove (which already had an episode) and ROB, who had a whole episode dedicated to it and it's games later.

Every time this thread gets bumped I keep thinking there's a new episode since in the past year or two AVGN returned to a semi-regular schedule for the first time since the movie was being made.

It's probably for the best we don't see an even more soulless AVGN but he's such a part of my youth that I have watch anyway. I guess there's still enough good jokes that I can pretend it's still good after I've downed the equivalent of a six pack of Rolling Rock in booze.

Speaking of Rolling Rock, I've always wondered how many people ended up drinking it because AVGN drank it. I remember he used to have a FAQ on his site where he denied being sponsored or laid by Rolling Rock or any other beer brand (goddamn, if only Rolling Rock or Yeungling sponsored AVGN instead of Raycon and NordVPN). I know most of his fanbase was too young to legally drink (now most of his fanbase is probably early 20s at youngest) but there had to be plenty of people who turned 21 and went out and bought themselves a six pack of Rolling Rock.
