🌟 Internet Famous The Mysterious Mr. Enter / Jonathan Rozanski's "Growing Around" - IndieGoGo Campaign Failed, John going off the deep end, "Turning Red" is ignorant about 9/11 (later retracted)

Legit curious, how do other autistic speds tolerate his rude, nasty tone? Even with text he sounds like a massive asshole almost all the time. How can they be immune to it?

I think they just like hearing people that talk like they do. Sort of like how most reaction commentary videos exist not to persuade people, but to reassure people who already agree with the argument.

Both of the premises you put forward are admittedly far more interesting than Enter's GA... However, I don't think either one of them really works as a "Children rule and subjugate their parents" plot. In both cases, you basically made "parents" and "children" two entirely different species, which is fine, but I think it misses the point. (I personally think the "cabbage patch kids" one is more interesting though.)

Fortunately, none of that really matters. I still think you managed to improve GA.


Yes and no. "What if kids ruled the world, and subjugated their parents?" is a textbook high-concept narrative. Enter's characters (especially his self-insert main girl) all suck, and I think even he's starting to realize that from some of his posts that I've skimmed in this thread, and the premise itself is still the most interesting (relatively speaking) part of this. The more I think on it, the more I believe that this concept would probably work better as a kind of anthology series, all set in the same universe. One where you aren't saddled with any one particular viewpoint for too long, lest you get depressed by how utterly fucked up the entire situation would be.


Lol, like enter would ever take anyone's good advice anyway.

I would still say that “What if kids ruled the world, and subjugated their parents” is not actually a narrative since there isn’t a inherent story, but a premise idea that can easily be made into a story. The anthology idea works as a story since you can say the story is about life in this backwards world.
The true best format for this is as a twilight zone episode that you watch for 20 minutes and move on. Even Disney, who owned the origin of this idea, decided it was best as a one off short to be aired in between more interesting shows than to be fully fleshed out. It’s definitely high concept, but high concept in the worst possible way since the concept itself doesn’t work without a mild horror element to it(the Disney version was basically role reversed home alone). My goal with the half-baked versions I came up with was to make it not creepy, which should be the primary goal of any kids program. Even horror inspired shows like Beetlejuice aim to not be actually creepy

So Enter is reviewing Extra Credits?! That’s not an animated web series at all as while they do use cartoon characters, it’s for the purposes of presentation! Plus it’s meant to be “informative and non-fiction”, not a regular webtoon that wants to be funny or tell a story!

Does that mean Enter will review YouTube channels with animated avatars now at this rate?

EDIT: Fixed post up for clarity.

And autistic faggots get mad when you call them autistic faggots. Water will never not be wet.
I think Enter might be tired of being seen as a turbo autist who only cares about dumb cartoon shows. He just finished his fart-sniffing technocracy series so maybe he's looking to talk about drama as a way to continue being enlightened by his own intelligence.
Extra Credits is fucking retarded, and seeing Enter either try to criticize or maybe even justify said retardation will be good for a laugh or two.

 

[Piga Dgrifm]

Why is the Extra Credits thing a two parter? Why is it an Animated Atrocity when it's not animated? The Normalizing Nazis video has already been debunked by loads of people who are much better at it than Enter and he's months late to the party.

Even those channels that half-assedly animate stolen Reddit posts would be a better pick.

If Enter wanted to talk about mature things to make himself seem mature, he should’ve looked into foreign animation or watch more mature animated shows.

He doesn’t need to focus on Extra Credits cause it is not really animated and would just open the floodgates for him to critique other YouTube channels that have a cartoon like presentation.

 

[AlexGroans]

I think opening up the floodgates is the intent in order to retain what little relevance he has. Regardless, the ensuing Enterbot shit will be fun to watch, and he’s probably gonna get grilled.

Next Atrocities video by MrEnter on DeviantArt

Because you guys are so bad at guessing (seriously, I gave out like 5 hints and very few people got it only after the last one), I'll come right out and say what I'm going to be reviewing. We're gonna be doing Extra Credits. Yes, it is technically a web animation. TV Tropes counts it as a web animation so I see no reason not to. I've done web series in the past on atrocities, like with Happy Tree Friends' YouTube Copyright School and Ctrl+Alt+Del way back in the day, so I don't think this one is too out of nowhere. Although this one is a little bit different, since the series that I'm talking about is still going on.

My rules for web animation reviewing are that, if it's behind some kind of paywall it's fair game, or they give out false or potentially dangerous information. And Extra Credits has been giving out a lot of false information in recent years. This is actually gonna be... two reviews, back-to-back. They'll probably have separate atrocity numbers because I won't be talking about the same episodes both times.

Yes, I said videos. The people who did guess what I was going to be reviewing pretty much all guessed that I was going to be doing their "Stop Normalizing Nazis" video; you know the video that everyone has given a response to. I'm actually going to be reviewing a bunch of Extra Credits videos. Both of these videos will be around 30 minutes long, but that's not really why I broke it into two different parts.

Part 1 is about Extra Credits... essentially going corporate. We're gonna talk about one of their previous most infamous string of videos. The one where they argued that games should cost more than 60 dollars and their two parter where they defended loot boxes. You know, despite knowing what a skinner box is.

Part 2 is about their more political bent. This means that yes, we will be taking a look at their most infamous video, but a couple of other videos that lead up to that one, such as "All Media is Political."

I've already written and recorded it, and now it just needs to be edited, which shouldn't take too long I would think. But that's what we're gonna be doin' throughout October apparently. This review was actually one of the harder ones that I have ever done.

A lot of people who have done videos responding to Extra Credits more infamous blunders seem to come from people who... have never really cared about them. I am not in that camp. I really cared about that series for... years and years. And it's... just incredibly sad to see it go off of the rails.

Also, my wrist is hurting again, so it's... not been a good time.

TV Tropes counts it as a web animation so I see no reason not to.

Just as I thought. TV Tropes is the one thing these YouTube critics never seem to question, even when they count a series with absolutely no animation whatsoever as "Web Animation" just because there are drawings in it.

 

[Just_a_Bored_Guy]

Oh hey, I called it. I actually thought to myself "the Nazi video and the 70 dollars video" once he brought up EC. @Arctic Fox is probably on to something about him trying to keep the drama views flowing.

And another thing, a set like this probably shouldn't take an entire month to do. It would be fine if he posted other videos in the meantime, but that's not really something Enter does anymore.

 

[LiquidKid]

Yeah, but Extra Credits isn’t Jayden animation or the Odd1sout. Unlike extra credits, their dull content actually has an inexplicably large audience.

Just as I thought. TV Tropes is the one thing these YouTube critics never seem to question, even when they count a series with absolutely no animation whatsoever as "Web Animation" just because there are drawings in it.

I mean, only a fool thinks TV Tropes is a source of information in any form. Even the “tropes” with forced meme names they try to create don’t stick to it. The page on “flanderization” is the pinnacle of that as most of the entries are about character development and character changes and not characters with a sole defining trait(even modern Ned Flanders doesnt only have one trait)

 

[The Pink Panther]

Someone finally slapped Enter and he wrote out this mess:
Wyświetl załącznik 953805

There you are, watching an Animated Atrocities, when all of a sudden, you're a dipshit who calls shows with no animation web animation.
You didn't ask for this.
You didn't choose this.
But there it is.

Apparently a historical web video series with little drawn characters in between counts as a "web animation".

Autism is what autism does.

 

[Bunny Tracks]

It's Extra Credits. What the hell is there even to review? Also, wouldn't this fit better for his Technocracy series rather than Animated Atrocities?

He wants to get in on the Normalizing Nazis drama but he's several months too late.

Oh fuck off dude, the fact that nobody guessed it is a sign that people don't count a slideshow as animation. Not that we're all too stupid to figure it out.

Besides, if you're going off what TVTropes says...

The show also manages to be thoroughly researched on the topics it is covering.

When it not only has to finish every extra history series with 'here's a whoopsy list' episodes, but the critical research failure section on the same site is nearly two screens long, and even that only contains the obvious ones.

Tvtropes should be no more trusted than Wikipedia - in fact, far less. I guarantee you that Extra Credits is only not a 'web original' because someone originally put it down as a web animation and nobody cared enough to fix it.

That 'thoroughly researched' line alone should be enough to remind you that tvtropes is made by random people, with little page-to-page oversight.

Either way, holy hell is this late. I get that he's gone with 'search deep/write long' rather than 'post fast', but it shouldn't have taken him THIS long to do it.

This is so petty and autistic

 

[An Account]

I'm looking forward to the upcoming sperg fight. The idea of the Enterbots declaring holy war against Extra Credits because their messiah said so is hilarious.

 

[Shokew]

I would rather Entard go back to shilling his non-thing (which some of you posting here have improved on with actual good ideas by now that aren't burning it down and getting a real job.).
I can't even entertain the thought of Entard picking a fight with people on a topic he clearly doesn't understand and has done no proper research or proper past observation of to warrant anything worthwhile.
THAT is especially if he's covering this crap when it's no longer popular to waste time on, honestly.

And yet, his mouth-breathing children followers are still gonna eat it up like free cake and ice cream, regardless...

 

[MysticMisty]

I think they just like hearing people that talk like they do.

Kind of ironic given how easily butthurt they get just from when they think someone is being rude to them, while they themselves aren't self aware enough to know when they're being genuinely rude in first place. Circle of 'tism I suppose.

Especially with his gig with "mean-spirited" cartoons when he's pretty much just that.
