So, on a random note, I decided to watch the latest video that Greg made on his Armoured Media channel: His Tiger King review. Yeah, yeah whatever: I'm a month late.
Oh lord, the video was so bad. "Pedestrian" is putting it nicely. It's like he was trying to imitate RedLetterMedia AND Jeremy Jahns at the same time? I feel like what he was trying to say about the docuseries warranted a longer length than 15 minutes ... Yet he glosses over things so much that the video also felt too long. What a weird video, from an editing and scripting standpoint. On top of it, the review wasn't even funny or amusing. Every joke was a swing and a miss.
Also, he has no camera presence at all here. This is the first time he's reviewed something without June in years, right? Oh boy, is his YouTube career in trouble if this is all he can come up with in months without uploading. Her presence was actually sorely missed in the video. I haven't liked Shoe in about 2 and a half years now; but the girl at least has camera presence and knows how to sell herself to a crowd for now.
And, of course, he starts the video off with complaining about how he doesn't make enough money, too. Hoo boy, anyone tell him that his schtick obviously peaked about 4 years ago? Maybe it's about time to throw in the towel on YouTube, dude.
All of the theories about how the relationship was dragged on for so long because of Greg piggybacking off Shoe's success are ringing more and more true to me than ever now. lol.
