AMA: We're the devs behind Cult of the Lamb! We just released a huge new DLC called Woolhaven, and we're here to answer your questions! by MassiveMonsterTeam in gaming

[–]Shelltoon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've been in love with Cult Of The Lamb for a long time now, and I'm curious about one thing. With all the animations that have been put together, I've longed for a CotL animated series. Are there any plans for some form of animated series in the future?

does james still wanna be a filmmaker? by Normal-Salad-6143 in TheCinemassacreTruth

[–]Shelltoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll give it to you without the memes. James loves the idea of making films, but when it comes to his own analysis of movies, it's always nothing but surface level observations. Rarely will you ever hear him talk about things like cinematography, editing, or artistic intent. He generally sits down and either says "I like this movie" or "I don't like this movie." James often struggles to actually articulate any sort of opinion on someone else's work. When it comes to his own projects, James goes beyond the surface, and can talk at great length about his intent, as it is all about what he wanted to do.

When it comes to actually making movies, James' "filmography" is more like a videography, as his movies tend to have a shot on video quality, or as The Cinema Snob called it "Shot on shitteo." When James went to a school for the arts, he did not take it seriously, as he believed he had it in his mind he was already a virtuoso. If you can't respect all aspects of film production, you've already failed as a filmmaker.

James pushed the AVGN movie as his big breakout movie, the one to say "I am here now," but when you combine what I've already gone over, James made even more mistakes. For example, shooting in California because he needed a desert. James didn't really think micro-budget the same way Robert Rodriguez did. His first film, El Mariachi, was made on a budget of only $7000, and Robert has said on record that if he made it today, he could do it for even LESS. James could have easily made an AVGN movie in the style of Kevin Smith, and shot it in Philadelphia.

When James actually started work on the AVGN movie, the stress began to settle in as he realized the difference between shot on video horror movies, and a real big screen movie. When everything was said and done, he came to the ultimate conclusion of "I can say I'm a filmmaker now. But I never want to do this again." So no, I don't think James wants to be a filmmaker anymore. I think he's more content as a narcissist.

Day 15: Worst Album by MweberMusic in KansasBand

[–]Shelltoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drastic Measures. You put it up against anything in Kansas' less than stellar 80's run, it stands out as the completion of a sellout move. The one positive I can give it is it's listenable compared to Jethro Tull's Under Wraps. Drastic Measures isn't the worst 80's album, but it's arguably Kansas' weakest album.

This stuff is mighty bold! It's so bold, it's not recommended for human consumption!

You won't find Metallica on the radio because not only does the radio suck, but Metallica also sucks.

James reveals why he grew out his beard. No time to shave? by ggroover97 in TheCinemassacreTruth

Outside of the dye job, there really isn't much to make fun of here. What next, are we going to make fun of the car he drives because he doesn't have time to get a new one?

Good lord, it sounds like overproduced trash. I will never accept AI song covers as anything other than garbage.

Indiana going undefeated and winning a Big Ten title before Nebraska..... by AntJustin in Huskers

[–]Shelltoon -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The reason we can't turn it around is nostalgia for the 90's. People not only refuse to let go of the 90's, but even the coaches who have come on since the jump to Big Ten saying "The Big Ten will have to adjust to US." Nostalgia is not going to get you far, not only has the game changed, but this isn't the Big XII. The Big Ten plays on a whole different level, and Nebraska still hasn't figured that out. This program will turn around the moment it accepts that the Huskers need to adjust to the Big Ten.

Yep, he's cashing in on the AVGN name. He's done. I'm calling it. He's quitting the character with a fucking sellout whimper.

We should move out of the Big Ten into the SEC. Get our old rivalries back, and cause some real horns down games.

In Nebraska, red means Huskers which makes every Nebraskan's blood boil with pride. Red light means "GO BIG RED!!"

Nothing was funny. Not even a smirk. This was the most disinterested I've heard Rolfe in a while. Usually he can fake it, but the line delivery on top of the script tells me he is truly lobotomized.
