What is this obsession with wacky shit?

I don’t know about you guys but I’m sick of the autistic bullshit, that calls itself entertainment, we get today.
It seems to be a pattern of behavior for him. He thinks Adam West’s Batman is the best. He “likes” the later editions of Saints Row. He worships Mario and the MCU. It seems consistent with his thinking all the way back to his first Game Overthinker series, everything has to be simplistic, wacky, or childlike otherwise it would be for those dudebros Gamergators Trumpers people who called him fat in school.

Honestly this is very ironic given the types of batshit conspiracies and comparisons he makes. Like how he treated Mario 3 like a secret political thriller, how the console wars were like vietnam, how Mario 3's reveal was as important as 9/11 and JFK's death, and how FPS games are a secret MKUltra project to kill "brown people" which is why he hates them
 
Let's be honest here, most videogames don't have that deep of a story. Most of it is "You're the good guy, everyone else are bad guys. Kill/beat up/avoid the bad guys, until you can kill/beat up/ avoid the king of the bad guys." Everything else is just window dressing. Of course, Bob wants windows with pastel colors and inoffensive prey animals. He's not that different from the edgelords, he's just on the other end of the horseshoe. Notice neither of the two camps ever really talk about actual gameplay, which is the most important thing.

There's nothing inherently wrong with enjoying the wackier shit and I'll be the first to admit I enjoy the Adam West Batman's madcap 60's farce but if you're exclusively wanting to engage with the ridiculous and immature entertainment it tells me there's something going on you're not telling me- just like a 40 year old woman that lives through her Hallmark Channel movies.

Batman is a good example here because it makes for a good jumping off point for a variety of interpretations. You can play it totally straight as a power fantasy "imagine being a cool rich guy that beats up weirdos with awesome gadgets". You can do the Adam West "this idea is ridiculous, let's play that up for comedy". You can do an AA: serious House on Serious Earth where you explore the broken psyche of a fucked up man that has to dress up in a weird costume to cope with his loss. And both BTAS and Arkham depict a Batman that pushes his adopted family away because deep down he's a miserable asshole. If you limit it to one interpretation in a collaborative genre like cape comics you definitely limit the longevity of the character.
 
Can we just laugh at the fact that Bob has turned into a seasoned expert of COVID vaccines and is now an expert on the new Saints Row game because he only saw selectively chosen scenes from a trailer with barely any new gameplay?

I thought this guy was supposed to be a bad movie critic that would make the Nostalgia Critic blush.
But you see, years ago he made this series called the Game Overthinker, therefore he can talk about it.

Oh wait, I forgot; that's too cogent an argument and thus not why Bob brainlessly burbles on random shit. Bob's just a slow in the mind desperate to prove he's actually smart to the point he stupidly pretends he knows everything or that his words matter on a subject he knows fuck all on.
 
@Ralph Barnhardt I can’t reply but I agree that this new Saint Rows looks like ass.

Hell, Bob should love and play the third one since it has that quirky MCU style humor in it and very over the top.
3 gets a lot of flack, rightfully so with my biggest gripe being that it's so unfocused, but I don't believe for a second that Bob would get any enjoyment out of it. In three the Deckers are the badder guys which would trigger Bob because how can the technological wizards who have the ability to upload their consciousnesses to the net ever be considered bad? That and it was made after Super Mario Sunshine so it's too new for him.

He got dunked on so hard lately for the whole "The Console Wars Was My Personal Vietnam" that he's done with that like he did with the "Eugenics" tweet (where he bemoans the fact that Nazis ruined the concept while waiting in intolerable traffic jams that are so bad he wishes Eugenics could solve the traffic woes, every single weekday) and gone 'It was just a bad JOKE, friendo! Stop arguing in bad faith!' like a typical Schrodinger's Douchebag.

Yes they do talk about gameplay. The eternal easy mode vs do you even like video games bruh debate
 
WRT to Bob only liking kiddie shit and pretending to like "smart" stuff to look like a big boy:

Didn't he suggest his viewers read Ayn Rand at one point? I wonder how modern day Bob would feel about that.
If the crayon eater even remembers that. Remember, Bob and others like him don't really form or think about their own opinions. He was a lolbert back in the day probably because that's what all his fedore-tipping friendos at Blockbuster were. Now, everyone on Twitter is an extremist lefty so that's what he is. The blue curtain analyzing retard would probably just say something about his "callow youth" (yes, because fedora tipping euphorics MUST use antiquated language) then babble incoherently while flecks of Purple Mountain Majesty dribble from his maw.

Oh silly me, how dare I think simplicity of control, responsiveness, and navigation of the map be more important than Dark Souls having a Journo Mode.
 
@The Shadow I never thought of it like that before that's amazing. I never realized there were so many different interpretations of The Batman. I mean I knew they existed but I never thought to put them side by side as a comparison. What really gets me is that none of them are wrong, well maybe besides the one where Joker goes woke and Batman is the bad guy because he's rich. I think I would argue that that one isn't valid because it fundamentally changes who The Batman is instead of exploring why he is Batman. If that one's valid then why not do a series where Batman rapes female gangsters because "that's the power of white men" or some BS? You're changing the core of who and what Bruce Wayne and The Batman are just for woke points. To bring Saints Row back into this I feel that's what they're doing with the reboot.

To talk about the wackiness aspect it's clear that Bob knows nothing of the series. 4 is the most "wacky" in that it starts off with you disarming an ICBM fired off by the bad guy of the previous game. And it's already flying through the atmosphere while you're doing it. Oh and I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing by Aerosmith is playing while all the Saints cry over the radio because Boss is sacrificing himself to save America. When you defuse the missile you fall back to earth, give a thumbs up to the camera, crash through a roof from ten miles up, and land in the Oval Office. You then begin the game as President of the United States.

I will argue that that is not "wacky".

I will argue that that is camp.

The trailer is not tongue in cheek. It is "lol randumz *crying laughing emoticon*". It does not feel self aware. It feels like they're just toooooooooo cool to care. Bob has shown that he has the ability to look past surface level stuff, I'm not saying he uses it right, so I do not know how he's not seeing this. It's most likely that he heard Teh Gamerz were mad that his precious minorities were in the game and he made up his mind on the spot without ever looking more into it. So just another day that ends in -y I suppose.
 
I do not follow moviebob at all, but I saw this tweet in a response to a tweet Noah Smith made earlier, just happened to come across it, and I can not believe how stupid this guy is.

What he's saying isn't evenly remotely a response to Noah's tweet. It's a complete non-sequitur. He tries to apply some "complicated" ideas but completely fails at applying them. It's just gibberish. I can see why people follow him now, I've never seen such ego and pure incompetency arise in a single tweet. What a fucking retard.
 
Uh oh... looks like the Other McCain has picked up on the Noah case.

I do so hope this drags Bob into another beatdown...

Bob is so moobs-deep in his "muh robots will do it" ideas that he believes there will be no need for human input whatsoever in the sooperiyah fyootchah.
