I don't remember Bob ever weighing in on that particular debate, but I'm sure he'd be hypocritical about it, since we have seen him openly thirst over supermodels and actresses, so he'd say that for men big is beautiful, but women must be svelte asian waifus

I don't recall which game it was, but Bob defended the censorship of one of those anime beach fanservice game (Might have been that Dead or Alive beach game IIRC)

This is how he looks when he fantasizes a spin-off series of the kick-ass pee o'sea chick:

Jesus Christ, "Movie" Bob. Do you not know what contrasting colors are? You aren't Michael Bay. We get that you can't be bothered to do some simple color correction of the reflection of your green wall, but damn, using that green wall for a harsh red background? YOU'VE BEEN DOING THIS ALMOST 20 YEARS! Imagine trying to get a real job, and this is the current output you'd show employers?

Why does your bald spot look like a cul-de-sac? Why all of a sudden you're wearing sunglasses? Max Headroom or David Caruso meme? What's wrong with your face? How can you be fat, yet I can still see your cheek structure? I didn't know it was possible to be balding below your lower lip. Nice Ghost 'N Goblins shit. Way to prove your nerd bona fide to people old enough to know what that is and don't give a shit anymore, and people not old enough to know what that is and don't care to find out. Oh, and a black blazer, because you really are classy after all.

Bobby is defensive about reviewing capeshit:
View attachment 1271689
People don't mind him reviewing capeshit so much as slavishly slobbering over it. Nice try fatty.

I hate Bob's misuse of a question mark. "Some do" isn't a question. "YouTube people jealous of RedLetterMedia". "Some are?" Even if he isn't talking about RLM, the way he says that other people have a "hobby job" while this is his main source of income is telling, because he is absolute shit at his main job, while other people's hobby is much more successful.

 

[WEEWOOManiac90]

Speaking of Moviebob's "career", how the fuck does Bob earn so much money? Youtube Ad Revenue is garbage and most sites probably pay him pennies.

Patreon bux, rather simple answer. Combine those with Ad Revenue and what Escapist pays him and he's got a pretty decent number of cash.

I'm surprised Escapist would pay him decently since he gets no views in comparison to Yahtzee (a person Bob would consider evil)

 

[The tired cat]

Honestly, I'd say since Yahtzee and Bobo are the only content makers they will pay 'em just to keep numbers. Bobo doesn't really bring in the big scores (frankly at this point neither does Yahztee), but still numbers to justify to keep his sorry fat arse around.

 

[Koby_Fish]

But during the stone age except with food because Bob's got brain issues with food. I'm too lazy to find it but someone asked him about his sex life and he responded with "I show up alone to barbecues but rarely make my own plate."
No, nobody knows what he meant by this.

I think what he meant is he doesn't have someone to go out WITH on the regular, but when he goes somewhere (the metaphorical barbecues likely = the bar or something), he finds someone to get his dick wet with. So basically he's trying to paint himself as a nonvirgin chad who has sex with random women randomly but regularly.

The torturous metaphor relies on the concept that a female significant other will go get the man's food at a cookout and bring it to him or whatever instead of him getting it his damn self like he'd have to anyway if he was by himself. Which is a crazy foreign concept to me because the ONLY people I've ever seen this done for are elderly people who have limited mobility, or very young children who either lack the ability or coordination to get their own food or can't be trusted to do it properly for themselves because they'd go for the dessert right away.

 

[King Dead]

Speaking of Moviebob's "career", how the fuck does Bob earn so much money? Youtube Ad Revenue is garbage and most sites probably pay him pennies.

Since you asked, might as well post a Patreon update since it's been a few months:

Continuing his slide down, he's about $1000 a month lower than he was a year ago. It's always possible he could rebound at some point (like that inexplicable jump in late 2017), but given his lessening Youtube subs and the Wu Flu lowering a lot of people's disposable income, it seems unlikely to me. If it keeps up and dips below $3000, he'll be at his lowest point that Graphtreon's recorded, which could very well happen within a month or two. Of course, he's still making $3000 a month more than his garbage deserves, but fools and money, I guess. Add onto that whatever the Escapist pays him (probably not a lot) and whatever Youtube adbux his channel gets him (again, probably not a lot), and you have Bob's income. I don't think he freelances for other sites anymore, not after he got rehired by the Escapist.

Unfortunately for anyone who wants to enjoy a "Bob tries to get a job" saga, even if it keeps going down at this rate, he's probably going to be fine for a while yet. We don't know his exact living arrangements, but we know that they're modest and that he probably doesn't have expensive rent, possibly due to renting from family. He has no dependents, doesn't travel, and his only expenses seem to be food, alcohol, whatever arcade he wastes time at, and movie tickets, the latter two currently not a part of his budget. I imagine he probably won't start panicking until he drops below $2000 a month, and that won't be for a year or so at the current trend. Then again, it might drop faster if a lot of people realize they've got to cut back on Patreon pledges in general because of the economy, so we'll see.

I always like to compare Bob's Patreon to other channels that don't go on constant rants about mayonnaise ghouls. Like LGR's Patreon, which is over $6000 a month and has been holding steady there for a good two years. Or RLM's Patreon, which doesn't give dollar totals anymore but has over 8000 patrons, and if they're giving the same average pledge as the last time dollar amounts were shown, then they're making about $37,000 a month. Really goes to show the value of keeping things apolitical and focusing on delivering what people want to see. It helps to not be a completely repugnant asshole too, but I don't think Bobby can fix that at this point.

 

[Doctor Placebo]

Bob on twitter has said the following

1. He has had a threesome with hot babes and other sexual encounters.

2. He can bench 300 on average.

3. That he could live in the woods with just a knife.

In short, no. The only thing he can do is jerk off nonstop on Twitter and pretend to be something that wont die a virgin fatso who posts the most garbage political posts of all time over and over.

You left out the best part of the threesome story! It was supposedly in middle school or early high school and he used knowledge about the female of the species he gained from reading Judy Blume (yes really) to manipulate an emotionally vulnerable girl who came to him crying about something into inviting her friend over to have a threesome with him.

So on top of sounding fake as fuck, it's also a rather creepy and dare I say problematic fantasy.

He also alluded to having sex in either high school or college in a single sentence of his book. He has never said a word about any kind of long term relationship, never said a girls name, or ever given any kind of description of any girl he's supposedly been with. No hair color, hobbies, tit size, nothing. Probably because he's terrified of someone from a certain internet harassment forum looking into his story. He's also never been seen with any woman outside of photo ops at events (which is what that convention hover hand picture was, those were booth babes and Escapist or Screw Attack employees).

I don't recall which game it was, but Bob defended the censorship of one of those anime beach fanservice game (Might have been that Dead or Alive beach game IIRC)

That was to own the chuds. Remember, Robert has this bizarre fixation on how consumers, particularly video game consumers, should be given what they don't want.

As for body positivity, he might have paid some lip service to it at some point as woke pandering, but it's bullshit. Back in the day he made a video fat shaming other gamers (again, yes really) and telling them to exercise, and he does most of his drooling over conventionally attractive women. The rest of his drooling he does over mommy politicians, Asian torture dictatorship queens, and the occasional trannie with politics similar to his. No fatties.

It's also sure as hell not a hookup thing. It might possibly be something the trad girlfriend or wife of a wasteland ghoul would do, but not some random slut who sees Robert sidle up in his polo shirt, Mario sport coat, and sunglasses and thinks "Mmm yeah, I want him take me down to his basement apartment and turn me out."

That's why the consensus is that it was a tortured analogy, because it's mixing what people would expect from a reasonably long-term significant other with the concept of multiple one-night-stands, awkwardly trying to tell people he's banging random chicks aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaall the time without saying it outright. I'd say he could have come up with a better analogy that was still PG or G rated, but this is Film Robert of the Big Galaxy Brain Takes, so I'm not .

 

[ConsoleWarVet]

never said a girls name, or ever given any kind of description of any girl he's supposedly been with. No hair color, hobbies, tit size, nothing.

He claimed to have a brief relationship with a woman who changed her name or insisted on being called Dagny after the Atlas Shrugged character, but went into no detail because of course this was fake.

 

[BScCollateral]

He doesn’t seem to care that since there isn’t any content to review right now...

Because there's only around 110 years of cinema recorded.

Bob could spend the rest of his life downloading films for free from Archive.org, watching them and commenting on them. But that might involve actually learning something about film history, and Bob is pure zero effort consumer.

Well technically it is part of his "MAIN rent-paying income", even if it's so small it's insignificant, but I guess he's got us there. It's his job people, a job he somehow puts less effort into than his original run of the Overthinker series, but a job none the less. If you think that if he didn't review the popcorn fodder then The Escapist wouldn't have a reason to keep him around anymore and he has zero say in the matter unlike him implying that it's HIS choice (irrespective of the fact that he would still do nothing but consoom consoomable media anyways), then you're a big dumb bully who don't understand superior thinking!

Shit, he has a whole series dedicated to doing stuff like this -- "Really That Good." It could be an opportunity to do something different, you know? Look back at film noir, blaxploitation movies, old sci fi, maybe even check out the dawn of modern superhero movies -- the Christopher Reeves Superman and the Tim Burton Batman as the foundation on which Marvel was built. But nope, it's easier and more endorphin-spiking to be a cunt on Twitter.

 

[Sexy Senior Citizen]

I’m new to this thread, so forgive my wetardation. Is there a “Bob’s gayest hits” list of all his best sperging/most cringeworthy events? His earnestness about Mario and Nintendo make me lol but the shitty, enraged political takes are a dime a dozen and frankly his overly emotional tweets make me embarrassed for him. But I’d love to find out more lore about e.g. the Mountain Dew chicken. TIA.

A list of greatest hits? Well, I'm not a historian, but here are a few:
His "basement apartment" flooded.

Spoiler: he also implies he slept on the couch

His autobiography was also an autistic review of Super Mario Bros 3. You can download is here so you don't have to give Bob money.

Spoiler: some choice quotes

“War & Peace” it isn’t, but just-the-basics storylines were par for the course in this era of gaming. Even still, it provides a bigger picture of the Mario universe than had previously been established: this is the frst mention that the Mushroom Kingdom is only one part of a larger world, primarily, but it also establishes that the starting point this time around has not quite settled into the “Peach always gets kidnapped” groove it would in subsequent games – while the Princess does indeed wind up abducted at the beginning of World 8, the main story of the game has her in the role of commander, dispatching the Mario Bros. to the Seven Kingdoms to deal with Bowser’s assault.

In fact, given that both sides of the conflict are delegating the war-fighting to subordinates this time around, SMB3 marks the frst clear delineation of the Troopa/Mushroom conflict as a long-term military conflict rather than mere isolated attacks by Bowser. Left unmentioned in the written story but implicit in the game itself is that Bowser has amassed a mechanized military force for this particular engagement, outftting his children with heavily-armed Airships and protecting his own Kingdom with tanks, jets, and battleships." [pg. 67].

"Finally… I felt like it should be a game I was already intimately familiar with. A game I could not just approach, but return to in the writing. Aside from (likely) making the project that much less diffcult, it would be appropriate to the intended tone. Not just some dry, academic deconstruction but an involved, emotive journey. I should be a game I loved." [pg. 12] [Also, read that last sentence again].

During the Great Autism Wars of 2014 (AKA Gamergate), he white-knighted for Anita Sarkeesian and Zoe Quinn hard, even though neither of them would suck his dick if their lives depended on it (as an aside, both have threads here). It was during that lunacy he came up with the belief that there are no bad tactics- only bad targets.

Spoiler: in the days before the blue checkmark

His white-knighting was also mocked on Twitter- particularly when he had the nuts to ask what fucking video game characters would think of Anita and Zoe (rightfully) getting dragged for their awful behavior.

Spoiler

But what is probably the most ridiculous thing about Bob, the trait which sets him apart from all other lolcows, is the Superior Future he conceived in the depths of his basement apartment. A Superior Future where everything is automated, wheat is grown on the moon, humanity lives in huge Manhattanized cities, Bob has a private spaceship and robot body to go with his tranny Asian dominatrix waifu, and everyone Bob considers obsolete (i.e., everyone he hates) has been sent to the gas chambers.

Wowwwww. Thank you. I read the OP days ago but the new OP was new to me. (Could a link to it be put in the original OP?) So much gold. (But still no Mountain Dew chicken explainer .)

And just because I am also autistic and need to get it off my chest, the shit that immediately rubbed me the wrong way about Bob, in no particular order:

• EXTREME grandiosity — takes himself WAY too seriously
• Talks down to the viewer and reader at all times, no exceptions; seems to have real contempt for his audience
• Immature af
• Overuse of quotation marks
• Incorrect use of hyphens
• Lives in a fantasy world most of his waking hours, between gaming, imagining his Superior Future, dreaming up alternative endings/plots to every movie he sees, etc
• Lacks basic human empathy or any apparent shred of kindness (while also posturing as the guy with the most impeccable morals, of course)
• Is never happy and probably never was
• Provincial af but thinks of himself as cosmopolitan and worldly
• Fucked up worldview and corresponding politics
• Has a truly unfortunate, ugly face
• Atrocious audio
• Hideous lighting

 

[RandomBattles]

These tweets are one of the strangest things Bob has ever posted, it's out of touch on the same level as "superior future I earned". He seems to believe that after a few months of lockdown that largely hasn't changed peoples living situations or quality of life, society will suddenly devolve into something like an 80's slasher fic. I can't comprehend how he could come to that conclusion, I can't even think of any pop culture movies that have a plot like that. The only thing I can put it down to is Bob being so terrified of any change to his comfortable life that he believes the entire planet will be unrecognizably changed.

Those tweets were amazing.

I think they were Bob projecting. Because he thinks about how to kill people all the time, he assumes that's what other people do. So, combine murder fantasies with his lens of this being an apocalyptic plague he believes people are using the time to kill each other. Because that's what he would do.
