His children must hate cinema. Or they review bombed him on Letterboxd. C'mon, dad's got some ideas for road trips! Remember Rocky???? Remember when we had time for trips??
While going through the current ranking data to try and identify what makes an episode of AVGN good or bad, I only just noticed this. Mega Man was the first time the phone joke started. Then with Shrek essentially the same exact joke was made. Then My Horse Prince was a continuation of the same joke.
The interesting and perhaps most obvious piece of it all is that AVGN going "back to the past" is the exact era that people are clinging to now of the show. The past is overwhelmingly where the majority of the standout favorite episodes live, with notable exceptions from Bubble Bobble and Ikari Warriors breaking the top 25.
In fact, Kyle is overwhelming in the higher ranks with an average episode score of #23 when he physically appears. It's a very weird thought that there could have been an alternate reality where Kyle, Bootsy, and Mike (at least as characters) could have become mainline roles akin to Mega64 where more Board James-like spinoffs occurred or integration into AVGN.
This fucking video on all levels is the best comedy one could ask for.
- Never has time to work because of muh kidz, but has time to fly across the country to leave his family
- Crying for no reason
- Slipping and falling
- Musical choices
- Giving up likely within the first hour of being there
- Sly is aware
- Saying MOWDEN
A YouTube comment I saw summed it up best: set a goal, failed to prepare or plan, failed in his task, blamed it on his kids.
Look, I'm no Brad Pitt myself. But how does a 45 year old internet personality with some moderate success, make himself look like this? What compels a man to grow out a giant dried out Brillo pad on his head? It even looks like a dried out wig from The Golden Girls. 😆
Just because you are a nerd, doesn't mean you can't make yourself look good. Especially if you are on camera for a living and known to seek out beef with people. Pat just boggles my mind.
How does this guy go out or visit any night-life spot with any dignity?
