God I miss TGWTG threads

#ctc was a great series finale for those threads. It kinda worked as an unofficial 4th entry in the anniversary series:
+The reviewers get together to take down NC for his past misdeeds
+Wacky mishaps and incompetence leads to their plans falling apart
+The NC reaffirms he will continue to be the NC at the end of it
>>214369539 >800th episode
Jesus Christ. I mean say what you will about the quality but one thing he does have is consistency. Now you could say he’s consistently terrible, but if you put out a new video on a regular basis that your audience wants you’ll absolutely make it
>>214369539
Man, I remember wanting to be an internet vedeo guy back in the day. It's a good thing my accent is thicker than Benzaie so I never went through with it.
>>214367962 (OP) >>214368087
Didn't know until the OneyPlays podcast that he was an illustrator before NC took off. Very illuminating when you realize that he's just a guy obsessed with 80's/90's TV cartoons at his core.
>>214369747
I forgot he bought a gigantic fucking warehouse with a hangar-sized room to keep all his one-off discount costumes. And then all his videos take place in a single tiny room.
How the fuck did he think that was a good financial idea.

Those old YouTubers think improving your content means doing more skits. Not improving your ability to critique, not learning from popular trends and organically implementing them, not researching what your target demographic wants, no. They just dress up in different costumes with painfully unfunny “parodies” of whatever they’re talking about
>>214372033
It’s one thing to be a janny who does it for free
It’s another to be not even a janny, yet act like one without any of the “power” they have
>It's just a POV shot with ron Liz holding the camera while looking down at Linkara down on his knees. >They're in a dingy motel room with roaches crawling on the floor. >Iron Liz keeps growling "you want this sonic screwdriver?" >Linkara whimpers "Yes...I'm a nasty cock slut." >The movie goes on like this for 90 mins
>>214371751
And then you can hear his brother talking on the phone in half of their studio videos because they have no concept of craft or quality control
Doug’s appearance on Oneyplays was pretty good. He repeated the same few jokes a lot, but otherwise he did a great job rolling with their punches and even poking fun at them. Goes to show that the best thing an eceleb can do when being made fun of is to join in. It’s hard for people to keep mocking them when they’re essentially saying “yep, I know”
It’s when they get assmad and seethe that it becomes an issue for them
>>214369368 >Latzaposting
Latzaposting was so fucking funny. The end of the arc was even funnier: Latza now has more of a legitimate career than any of the Channel Awesome people he looked up to and wanted to be a part of.
>>214372747
And yet it's one of the less embarrassing things on the internet about him.
At least Lindsey owned up to most people only knowing her from that hotdog gif.
>>214373640
I watched a few seconds of one of his newer videos and it's some of the most grim shit I've ever listened to. >plays up the worst fake "female" voice ever >uses ai slop for his "woman" persona >talks for hours about athiesm and other unironically reddit shit >gets like 50 views >is a 40 something year old man still living in his parent's basement, putting excessive makeup on his potch-marked five-o-clock-shadowed face when not hiding behind an AI slop avatar

Art is not a metric of quality, but simply a word describing things that were created with the purpose of entertainment. Saying something is art does not mean it's good, but it does mean that it's created for entertainment purposes and it holds more abstract meaning behind it. It can still be trash, shit, gay, retarded etc.
>>214373751 >never groomed anyone unlike his peers >never involved in serious drama outside of shitty reviews like the wall and bart’s nightmare >can take a joke and loves when they mock him on oneyplays, even guest starred in an episode and showed up smiling friends while linkara keeps frothing at the mouth at the mere mention of them
doug won
>>214373841
If you get past the trendy-at-the-time cringe skits, he was one of the most entertaining people in that bunch.
Could've ridden into the early days of streaming and been one of the big ones.
i'm sure he is a nice guy, but this group of particular reviewers looked like subhuman retards ... like only mentally ill people could enjoy charmless people yapping about nostalig stuff ... avgn should be in the category but he has something they don't ... like some sort of awareness (even tho he's a doofus out of character) these people tho, it's like sub-neanderthal level of entertainment
>>214373841
He seems to be doing much better now, and he said (nearly three years ago now, admittedly) that he intends to get back to making reviews and "making people laugh". I still think the former could happen, if and when he wakes up one day and something in his brain has clicked back into place; the latter I'm not so sure about.

Latza has worked for a bunch of companies, including Disney and Nickelodeon. He does a lot of television work and trailers/promo clips (including for big stuff like Marvel movies) and seems to have found his particular niche within animatic editing. He currently works at Tonari and was an animatic editor for War of the Rohirrim.
