I didn't watch the video but the safe assumption is yes, he doesn't understand much.
He doesn't even understand mornings. The whole day runs together for him. His head is empty and he just stumbles around tripping over 50ft cables and tripods in his cuck shed. That's why April sets a loud alarm for 5:40, so he knows when to come running. Otherwise he just fumbles around all day and then has no idea where the time went.
I do not doubt this is the same guy
None of us do.
Is there no way to tell how someone is samegayging anymore? I know it could be done but I never bothered to learn how. My knowledge after lurking was leaning how to greentext and then not giving a shit past that.
LEAVE HIM ALONE
Do Saturday morning cartoons even exist anymore
He mentioned one on MeTV but that was more a nostalgic thing instead of a serious one. All the main cable shows that had Saturday Morning Cartoons are done with it because of that FCC restriction and there are dedicated channels to watch cartoons any time you want.
It's hilarious how unintentionally creepy this post is. Are you ESL?
I don't think they do.. I checked not so long ago and didn't find any cartoons on saturday morning.
It's fricked up man.
Glad I didn't have to grow up in this timeline.
>Noooo! Why won't children get to watch toy commercials all day! L-Literally sovlless and white genocide!
>White genocide
Rent fricking free
He suffers from dementia kid give him a break
I unironically believe this.
He went to special ed, he has some form of moronation.
James seems like a stupid person. I’m not saying this to be mean, I don’t think he’s like mentally impaired or something, but the way he talks, from the slow pace and mispronunciation of simple words, makes him come across as dim witted.
Also, he’s supposedly obsessed with movies, but despite being middle aged he hasn’t matured in taste past the age of like 16. I get if you primarily like lighter tones stuff, but he’s said shit that’s embarrassing.
I'm pretty sure the dude just has mild 'tism that affects his speech. He's maintained a highly successful online person for 15 years now without completely losing relevance or going crazy while simultaneously raising a family, so he can't be that much of a tard.
If you watch rental reviews james either has never seen the movie they are reviewing, he watches it the night before or his opinions don't go beyond explaining the plot. For a guy who's passion is movies he knows jack shit about them. He even said he never even watched a patrick swayze movie like what the frick
NO TIME
Man, he must really love that Mortal Kombat hat
I dunno, what are they?
Are any of those tapes Saturday morning shows? I think Beetlejuice was.
Big Ryan
How is that "creepy"?
It's not creepy, there's some poster who calls everyone ESL for some reason
my parents set up streaming for me on my UHD 70inch tv when i was growing up frfr no cap. i didnt watch cartoons on saturday mornings, just my favourite youtubers on god
He found a way to shoe horn talks about horror movies into a video about Saturday Morning cartoons.
Its a very strange video since he says he didn't remember Saturday morning cartoons which I think is a crock of shit.
>And even though I remember it best as a weekday show, it's still a part of that Saturday morning history.
~ James Rolfe
Does there come a natural point where you just stop giving a frick about 99% of media if you are a healthy, mature person? Because I'm pretty much at that point. I don't understand the reason behind endlessly jerking off about some low budget shit you watched 40 years ago that was created to sell you plastic toys and advertisements when you had an undeveloped brain.
Yes. Im at there now. 39 years young. Cinemaphile, books, chess, music and some old movies are it for me. Im happy.
You stop giving a frick about what everyone’s telling you to watch and focus only on what you’re likely to enjoy. This is because you realize you’ll never have enough time to enjoy all the media there is, so you only focus on what caters to your tastes. Sure, maybe these cartoons are a fun watch but there’s a reason I left them in my childhood
I think its because you take on more responsibility or have less time, so time becomes much more valuable. If you can watch a movie you may like versus a movie you love, you'll probably go with the movie you love.
My days are already full of stuff. I keep attention to a few select things I like. Sometimes I'll try new things, but they almost always take lower priority. I just rewatch movies and tv shows I like from the past. Very rare I'll watch something new.
80's nostalgia homosexuals and their fricking GI Joe Transformers Voltron Thundercats He-Man shit would not shut the frick up about their garbage toy commercials for most of the 2000's. Outside of things like the Transformers animated movie which is actually quite kino, none of that shit was ever good and is basically unwatchable today.
It's something literally no one likes on its own merits but only likes because it reminds them of a more comforting time in their lives.
I don't understand people who get hung up on nostalgia and just reminisce about a handful of shows or movies they enjoyed when they were younger and never wanna watch anything new or different. By now there is over a 100 years of film and television content to choose from and there is bound to be something else out there you will really like if you give it a chance.
There's kids shows that are worth taking a deeper look at, but it's ones where the showrunners had some kind of vision behind them. But most children's shows from the 80s don't have that. They were made for one reason and one reason only and that was to sell toys. Extensively talking about them or getting seriously invested in them just isn't worth it.
I loved visionaries it would make a good film adaption or tv show
it's ironic how this dipshit Bimmy stopped caring about his job because muh kids but still creams his pants over garbage from his childhood
Congrats, you defeated manchildism.
>Does there come a natural point where you just stop giving a frick about 99% of media if you are a healthy, mature person?
I pretty much stopped caring about most shit when I hit 32
>Does there come a natural point where you just stop giving a frick about 99% of media if you are a healthy, mature person?
I think its natural to come to terms with the unhealthiness of fixating on fictional media as the be all end all of life.
You are correct and all of the posts in the thread until yours is just schizo loser babble.
If there is then most of Cinemaphile clearly hasn't passed it yet. Every time a new cartoon film comes out we need to have 20 threads per hour about how its white genocide.
James doesn't even understand numbers
>"What happened to naked gun 3-32?"
He genuinely seems mentally moronic from what little I've seen of him, so probably not.
Saturday morning cartoons haven't existed as a concept since before he was even doing AVGN. Hell he can turn on almost 6 different channels on any given Saturday and they're gonna be airing cartoons.
These are not even his opinions anymore. Just shit plagiarized by other people.
James drinks a gallon of soda every saturday.
>I invented cumfarts
-James Rolfe
wait a second. He greenscreened himself to his own basement
Is it? I thought it was just the green from the TV next to him.
Nah it's just the tv that's greenscreen, you can see his shadow move on the wall
I always get him mixed up with the bat credit card guy. How are they different?
James is more moronic, but Douge has some powerful autism.
Why won't he explain what happened to his video store room? He's filming all these horrible "reviews" with fricking green screen and they all look so fricking soulless and jarring. He's pretending that room still exists, but it doesn't and hasn't for a long time. Prove me wrong.
April is getting rid of it all
I don't, i wasn't poor and had cable so i could watch cartoons anytime i wanted too.
Are there people who watch this shit and don't think this guy isn't a total sodabrain moron? This fricking cuck says such nonsensical shit every video there's no way it's anything but background noise for most people.
>no way it's anything but background noise for most people.
and other people obsess about him nonstop for reasons too nerdy and creepy to comprehend
I've known James was a massive moron ever since his NES Top Gun review when he couldn't land the plane even though all the information is given on the screen
>having nostalgia for cheaply made shows that were just long toy commercials
Gen X'ers have a mental disorder
GenX is based, zoomers are the mental trannie generation.
t. Shit talking GenX
I've always given James a lot of slack. His older AVGN stuff, especially seasons 2-4 are fricking great. But this is the video that broke me. I couldn't even finish watching it. He came across as a genuine moron.
I like his monster madness stuff. His take on Godzilla always kind of irritated me though, I don't know why. Personally his Blu-Ray video made him sound like an angry boomer:
Yeah his Monster Madness stuff made for good background noise while I was working on something. His Godzilla stuff is OK but usually boils down to "Godzilla blows something up and that's awesome!" and he completely glosses over any real analysis or history behind them. Big Action Bill makes great in depth Godzilla videos BTW if that's your thing.
Seasons 2-4 are the period when Mike was still writing AVGN with James.
Yeah I'm aware of that. Mike really was the backbone of AVGN which is funny because I always hated Mike lol.
>A BLACK wiener?
>IN MY WIFE'S ASS?
Lots of angry zoomers itt
What happened to James in the "good" timeline?
This IS the good timeline. In every other timeline he's doing the video editing at the local weather station.
Kids today don't have to suffer through the unbearable ennui of sunday morning cartoons or the shit that came on after the saturday morning cartoon block was over
>shit that came on after the saturday morning cartoon block was over
(I don't know why this is subtitled in Hebrew)
Guys it will be 5:40 soon
James is unironically a short bus moron, I don't even mean that as a joke. He's legitimately autistic and was put in special ed as a kid. When I found that out it immediately made sense and I don't even get mad at Bimmy anymore. As much as people hated Mike and thought he was ruining Cinemassacre, we've since come to find out he was actually holding it together. Shit, a lot of the best jokes from the classic episodes were written by Mike himself. Now just look at the state of the channel when James is left to himself. Remember when we thought Mineycrafta and Elmo in Grouchland were the worst of Cinemassacre? We had no idea.
I'm just glad the slobs are off cam and stick to behind the scenes now at least.
Minecraft was bad but Mike wrote some of the best AVGN content. Swordquest and many of the Gametrailers and prior era episodes.
>Shit, a lot of the best jokes from the classic episodes were written by Mike himself
Anyone have the pasta that goes something like
>2004 - "Mike drew some of the title cards"
>2007 - "Mike wrote the skits where he appeared"
>2014 - "Mike wrote half of the episodes"
>2022 - "AVGN is actually played by Mike wearing a Mission Impossible style face mask"
>>2014 - "Mike wrote half of the episodes"
Nobody actually began to turn around on Mike till the Slobs arrived. He was well hated and memed for years, more so when people thought he was the reason Bootsy left. The "love" for him is recent. I still think he's a unfunny sperg who's terrible at games though.
somehow weird al is the least weird at that table
Initially I thought this was gonna be a ripoff of the Toy Galaxy episode but it's so bad it doesn't even qualify.
>1 minute in
>not aware of Saturday morning cartoons
>not much younger than Bimmy myself
Jesus Christ, the movie really broke his mind.
>reintroduces his favorite childhood cartoons to his own kids
>starts with Muppet Babies
James basically thinks his knowledge on cinema is legendary because he knows about the original Thing. He thinks he's the only person in the fricking world who knows it exists so feels like bringing it up endlessly as if it's showcasing his horror movie knowledge penis. The fact of the matter is no one talks about the original because it's a laughably bad B movie. His video was absolute shit, the arguments he was making really help expose his laughably low IQ. The Carpenter remake is just a gore fest and nothing else! Nevermind the memorable characters, mystery of keeping track of their alibis to determine who could've become the thing, the paranoia and atmosphere. Then the original thing has atrocious characters, you're just waiting for the next jumpscare where a man in a rubber suit jumps out to say ooga booga. His whole video is literally "it's good because it's old and obscure (it's not obscure)". James Rolfe? More like Cringe Rolfe.
Smug hack.
I feel sorry for James, he's turned into one of those people that spends all their time reminiscing about the golden days, his life must be miserable. The movie ruined him
genX gays have a mental breakdown when they remember some shitty cartoon or commercial from the 80s lmao
t. zoomoid who knows nothing but clown world
Zoomies have a mental breakdown when episodes of said crap aren't available on the internet.
Everything's available on the internet.
>weekend
>tfw could sleep longer
>saturday MORNING cartoons start
>sleep trough half of them
I could never understand this stupid fricking idea.
sugar, lots of sugar. Cereals especially.
Jesus this video is boring. I couldn't even finish it. All his videos are like this now. I can't even follow what he's saying, it just sounds like static. He goes on and on, pausing because he's reading a teleprompter and he just sounds so unnatural compared to when he still actually gave a shit. James literally CANNOT make a good video anymore. At least Screenwave gave good memes, but he got rid of literally everyone and now it's just moron James front and center.
The inventor of saturday morning cartoons.
The innovator of Rogaine
Inventor of FPS
God, what an insult to have this dunderhead on a documentary talking about FPs...
Carmack, Romero and Rolfe....the true inventors of FPS
It doesn't even make sense. FPS is a computer genre, there aren't many console FPS and James plays mostly old consoles.
Oliver Harper and James Rolfe are back to squeeze more shekels from James' audience
The inventor of Mass Shootings
Mike, please stop this. You have a massive wiener. Why not just do porn? There's more to life than internet popularity. Just let it go.
I honestly really like streaming and fricking with people in YouTube comments. I play a lot of shit I never would have otherwise, so it’s always fun in that regard.
James buying will never not be funny
>i want to go back 🙁
do ya?
i spent the other day high as frick with a playlist on youtube in the background which had GI Joe, TMNT etc cartoons all day long. It was great.
You don't miss the cartoons, you miss having no responsibilities. The cartoons are still there, and now you dont have to wait a whole week for them. But then you have to get your clothes ready for work. Not me though, i'm on gubment bux.
>When Lloyd Kaufman and Joe Bob Briggs both tell James he is moronic for filming in California and production costs should be nil due to digital technology.
That one bimmy podcast episode with Lloyd coughman was the saddest thing to fricking watch its just clear how bimster doesn't fricking care about anything even when that neurotic israelite is so fricking eager to work with him on anything
>i can get you a budget
>mmmm uhhhhhh yepppppp
James never used to be this bad, yeah he was always an awkward shy guy, but he wasn't mentally incompetent
>Before
>Now
I think it's April having the gall to think James made money by being foul-mouthed and wants to shield their kids from James' "offensive comedy" which bought the house.
plus she definitely fricked the guy that played the game glitch.
/r/ somebody put 5:40 on cake
>somebody put
How about you, buddy?
No time sorry
i don't think he cared that much about the avgn movie, i think he just wanted to feel like a real film maker and to him that meant filming in los angeles
He wanted to feel kinship with the israelite.
You can pinpoint the exact moment his heart breaks in two when he's talking to Joe Bob and he brings up filming in L.A.
>few cable channels: exploit the peak kids hours (aka saturday morning) to get more ad revenue
>a lot of cable channels: make a channel for kids and profit of it 24/7
that's it, i just saved you 15 minutes
Someone should tell him that kids don't watch broadcast TV anymore.
Do poor kids even anymore? Or are smartphones so ubiquitous that even they don't?
if it wasn't a Universal harrer movie from the 30's or has a guy in a cheap rubber costume, Bimmy doesn't care
>reminder that James doesn't know the difference between 'your' and 'you're'
>reminder that James doesn't know what a Scythe is
>reminder James can't land the plane in Top Gun despite it telling you what to do on the screen
>reminder James thinks knowing that The Thing is a remake is the height of cinema knowledge
>reminder James was tricked into making a video promoting a scam
>reminder he's so autistic when playing a WASD set up he has to cross his arms
>reminder you are watching Mike play the game when you watch an AVGN episode
James was tricked into making a video promoting a scam
?
Cheetaman 2
You really are fricking grasping at straws right there
Did a video advertising a kickstarter campaign to get Cheetamen 2 released that took 94 grand then turned out to be just the already available unfinished rom on a nes cartridge, Mike and James then went through youtube deleting any comment that mentioned this
James was tricked into making a video promoting a scam
What's that?
bimmy on the loggy
It's a shame everyone would shit on Mike and ridicule him as someone trying to "ride Rolfe's coattails" back during the glory days of AVGN but it turns out he did just as much work, if not MORE than James did. Yet James would never give him any credit, even when Mike wrote or edited the episode the credits would always read "Directed, written and edited by James Rolfe". Rolfe is such a sleazy hack, wants all the credit, wants the image of being this hard working "film maker" even when he isn't responsible for even half of the project. Remember this video?
Understandably, I think Mike was frustrated due to the lack of credit so asked James if they could do a video like this at times in this video you can see James getting uncomfortable, seems like he's trying to hide his anger because some of the truth is starting to come out about how much work Mike actually did.
Mike and Rolfe
Mikey
Rolfe
If you think this is real you are fricking pathetic
>haha bimmy believed he talked to Spielberg on AOL
>OMG IS THAT JAMES RELATIVE ON THE CinemaphileZ AND HE HAS PHOTOS OF HIS HOUSE AS A PROOF OMG SO TRUE
I had to bail on the channel a few years ago because it was shit and they were all moronic. Watched before youtube in the early teen episodes of AVGN. Some of the stuff on James and Mike Mondays was unbearable. There would be shit like flashing text on the screen for five minutes saying "PRESS A" and they would just run in circles complaining. Every once in a while I'll look at these threads and it always gets worse. Mike leaves, all the fats, and now Ryan is some kind of trans fricking lol.
I dropped the channel after watching a rental review and at the end showed pictures of justin covered in vomit without warning which scarred me for life, it still haunts my nightmares from tine to time, fricking c**ts. Had a burning hatred for the channel ever since
why does the guy from the old videogames video look like a trump supporter with juvenile dementia?
tfw you can tell he had a blank green screen on the tv because of the spill. he should have just taped some construction paper to it
Mike is honestly too based for all this moronic bullshit. Without Mike's input the whole AVGN thing is unwatchable.
Hilarious that if he made this exact same video in 2010, people would be jerking him off blind and half the posts would be cringe Blockbuster tier nostalgia posts.
>2022 isnt 2010 and i am angry about it
Good summary of these threads, tbqhwya.
2010 was 12 years ago, anon. And 12 years before that was 1998. Things change.
>Things change.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
He's outta touch
troony Truthers sure are uppity
