"You've never faced the dangers I have. You've never been thrown out of a Trump rally into the cold without a jacket! You've never chased down the Flash to the tune of Super Sonic Racing!"
Truly, more inspiring words have never been spoken.
You have never been betrayed by the worms you raised and given up on countless girlfriends to do so.
You've never had several nerds make fun of you on the Internet! You've never been laughed at by an AIDS patient! You've never been asked a question about your upload schedule by an admiring fan!
You've never decided that the next history of power rangers video would come out when it comes out and that you should stop asking!
You’ve never been blocked from your Adsense account, because you begged everyone to stop using Adblock on your videos!
@randomtaskn-word8517 He was on that site, That Guy With the Glasses, with the great Iron Liz!
"Y-you guys have never stared into the face of an angry fan who demanded to know when the next Power Rangers video was coming out, and YOU tell him there's no set schedule, and make him blink!"
AND THEN YOU FROZE!

That’s supervising
it's also his parent's place.

"Throw him out in the cold, don't give him his jacket, don't give him his jacket back!"

Doug walker: BUILD THAT WALL
Doug: Hey is it cool if we use MechaKara in To Boldly Flee
Lewis: You understand that he can rip everyone's throat out with mere thought. Everyone would tremble in fear at his mere presence. A destructive force that can rend the world asunder by snapping his fingers.
Doug: You realize it's just you with prosthetic make up on you? He's not real
Lewis: HES REAL TO ME DAMMIT!!!
reading that in Lewis' voice came about so naturally
To quote Mr. Burns: "My god, are you always on?!"
The worst/funny part is .... that really does sound like a late-era Nostalgia Critic skit for a movie he's reviewing.
@@jackhamilton9604: Same
Only thing missing is lewis fucking his mother and chris chan 2.0 would've been complete.
Linkara is literally the physical embodiment of "m'lady."
“Did you learn your lesson?
Hmmmmmmmmmmm”
Is the cringe style of fedora still a thing among the dorks? I haven’t felt it’s presence since 2015. Usually I only see old men wear them these days.
Linkara does know that the fedora tipper trope is supposed to be a joke, right? It's not supposed to be his entire personality.
@@whoknowswhocares885 yes. my friend started wearing one a few months ago. even wore it during a con. I ragged on him when he got it, he took it in stride. still buddies, but I’d be lying if it didn’t make me cringe
You, you don't know what it's like to truly, TRULY, lust after a green M&M!
Linkara got over $60,000
made a movie that looks extremely cheap.
Complain he couldn't pay taxes.
Then all of a sudden now owns his own house, and pretty big one too.
Really makes you think....
hMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Used the money as a down payment on the house?🤔
$60K isn't a lot of money to make a movie.
Then again, most TGWTG movies don't go above $60.
Having a house in Brooklyn Center is nothing to brag about
did they accused doug of that ?
my favorite part was when Linkara said "Its Fourth Wallin Time" and broke the fourth wall to copyright strike your video
The part where he fist fought Donald Trump shirtless with Zach throwing popcorn at them went hard
@@BlastingBigLoads2 "I have to say, I loved Linkara, right? I was watching various places and I saw Linkara, the great Linkara. He did Atop The Fourth Wall and he talked about the famous Power Rangers Rant, right? He said 'It'll be out when it's out', and we like that, it'll be out when it's out. But great work ethic, was so good when Iron Liz was there, the great Iron Liz, right? It's okay."
@@mpowerness92 "DONT YOU TALK ABOUT ME YOU SON OF A BITCH"
@@mpowerness92 grab em by the Linkara
@@BlastingBigLoads2 BUILD THAT WALL
I still can't believe my internet legacy consists of a Tweet informing people about Linkara's love for gay dead Muppet gangbangs that got read by Mister Metokur.
Great video series, by the way. I like how you're not just (completely justifiably) shitting on these movies but giving out genuinely interesting information that a lot of people, including myself, were unaware of.
Put it on your gravestone when you die, really own it
I'm sorry, Linkara loves *what* now 😂
How did you even found that still impresses and scares me.
You did the internet a MASSIVE service
It truly is the strangest gift that brought a lot of people together
Linkars seems like the kind of guy who would get thrown out into the cold without a jacket.
This is so oddly specific and hilarious.
Gotta admire that work ethic, though.
@@MolemanSAthis guy doesnt get the joke haha

We live in the timeline where the Spoony movie wasn't made but this one was. Where did we go so wrong?
Allowing Spoony to have a girlfriend. He has bad taste in women.
Spoony needed to be a wizard I guess
@@TenebraeXVII a homeless one too lol
@@pepealasquid6005 A magical hermit eh?
Dude, of all the downfalls from the Channel Awesome crowd, Spoony is the one that hurt me the most...
To me, he was funnier and more insightful than almost everyone on that site.
I even liked his ProWrestling ramblings and his D&D anecdotes.
So let's get this straight. The god is angry, but it's laughing at you, but you made him blink. But he was laughing, so wouldn't he be doing that anyway?
He was blinking away tears as he laughed at Linkara
I think he means blink as in surprise him with your power. The god underestimates you so you stand your ground and scare it.
But then he froze
It makes sense in context... but it's basically a villain set up to be beatable by anyone who could ask "What's the point of being everything when you're gonna be everything by yourself for all eternity?"
I like that "You've never stared in the face of an angry god... and then YOU stare back at it". He was already staring at it. Is he double staring at it? Did he look away and then look back so he could stare at it again? Did he adjust his glasses between staring sessions and how he can actually see it?
I can't believe he looked at that line and said "Yes, this is perfect, I do not need to edit this at all."
You know those tv show characters (mostly in cartoons) that are stereotypical nerds or geeks but are so smarmy, egotistical and smug that you enjoy their failures? Ya know, like Bubble Bass or Rick from The Young Ones - the guys who think they’re better than everyone else because they’re “intellectuals.”
That’s Linkara, but he’s REAL
I'm still not sure that Linkara isn't just an elaborate hoax
Art imitates life. Another good example of this nerd stereotype is Augustus St. Cloud from The Venture Brothers.
@@TenebraeXVII it would have to be an Andy Kaufman level hoax to go on this long undetected
THE LIGHTBRINGER
@TenebraeXVII it's deeper than that, Minnesota isn't even real
10/10 harder then Linkara when he sees the Green M&M
harder than when Iron Liz sees the first aid box on a suburban knights shooting
This fucked me up.
Harder than Marzgurl when she doxxed Vic’s mom.
@@judyhopps9380 wait what happened?
@@SomeKindaSpy Mr Metokur did a deep dive into everyone who worked on Channel Awesome.
In Iron Liz's case she wasn't contracted to work for channel awesome at the time, but suffered an injury during filming of suburban knights. Before they got her first aid, the higher ups and Doug made her sign a disclaimer/waver absolving them.
The 3 things I got from this whole channel awesome drama:
1. Everyone was or still is an asshole
2. Angry joe seemed to be the only one having fun
3. There's such a thing as death gay muppet gangbang
Thanks for all the trauma 🥲
That and Guru Larry got one over on all of them by treating the site like the joke it was.
@@Hammerhead547 'ello you!
But what about doug
Angry Joe was thr only one not angry, man everyone was fucking up on that set
@@Hammerhead547 Guru Larry had one major advantage, as a Britbong, he was isolated from them by an Atlantic ocean. Lot of troubles of Channel Awesome would be avoided if all of them were that isolated from each other.
This is it boys, the Stone Ocean of the Doug Saga. It’s been a hell of a ride.
It is truly Made in Heaven.
More like the Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan.
That is a pretty good way to describe that era.
this fits as stone ocean is the worst part with the worst jojo
A fun story about a filmmaker going the distance for the film:
In Crimson Tide, the director wanted to get a shot of a submarine diving, Namely tge USS ALABAMA. He asked the Navy, and they flat out refused. So the team went to a US submarine base and just waited for days until a submarine left the base, even waiting until the Alabama went in to resupply and then went back out to sea.
They also made sure that it wasn’t illegal to film a submarine from afar. Good thinking on their part.
It was just coincidence that the boat they filmed was the one the movie took place on.
"You know, I was watching, I was watching various places, and I saw Loli, the Almightyloli, making a video about Linkara, the great Linkara, and he said it'll be out when it's out, it'll be out when it's out, and we like that, but great work ethic..." -Donald Trump
The great shota was there..... The great shota. Hah it's ok
“Don’t you talk about me, you son of a bitch!”
*Don't talk about me, you son of a bitch*
Fun fact: Linkara is still upset that Doug didn't give a shit about him leaving Channel Awesome and expected him to make some kind of heartfelt goodbye AFTER Linkara contributed to the #changethechannel document that almost ruined Doug's career.
And to think, Lewis could've had a renaissance of popularity just like Doug if he'd only reacted positively to Chris's impression of him.
From what I've read, ol Kinky Linky had already made himself a reputation as an autistic pain in the ass around the few sorta normal guys in the Channel Awesome leadership. I get the impression he wasn't exactly liked. And I can see it. I went through a month phase years ago where I watched a bunch of Linky videos, as I'm also a fan of comics. I started off the month liking him. But as that month wore on, I found his stupid voice, stupid hat, condescension, dumb skits, shit takes on comics, constant political virtue signaling, poor understanding of storylines, and over all sperged out jackass behavior irritating as shit and won't watch him. Then a few years later Metokur made his video on him and I realized, "yeah, I knew I didn't like this guy for a reason".
If nothing else, Linkara is the dicionary definition of having your cake and wanting to eat it too.
Guru Larry handled it like a Chad.
#ChannelLarry
Considering Doug is still considered a villain by most of the internet, I wouldn't consider he'd had a comeback. He's only kept the audience who didn't abandon him after the CTC fiasco.
@@XanderVJ it has come to my attention people blame Doug for inspiring the “anti sjw” RUclipsrs who have been growing in popularity.people such as critical drinker,nerdrotic etc
Literally the best way to summarize how Linkara is, is by watching his reaction to OneyPlays talking about him. They didn't even like make fun of him they talked about his shitty comic book character Lightbringer. He still got stupidly pissed at Chris and Zach. While Doug reacted and said that he enjoys their takes and their comments.
All while he claims he's not bothered at all (bullshit) and has totally never even seen one of their videos (double bullshit).
I've always found his reaction to Oney hilarious, because they were a lot more harsh on Doug and his flaws and failures whereas they just poke fun at Linkara.
What always separated Doug from his hangers-on was his sincere gratitude to even have an audience in the first place.
@@mariokarter13 thats not true ....like at all lol
doug loves to shit on his audience and always has
@@EvilDoresh Yeah, and his backpedaling on it is another important part of his character. Lewis always adjusts his positions based on what he perceives to be popular.
Damn it Loli, my girlfriend walked in the room as the 'Tyrone' clip played. I blame you for this.
I did mail you a copy of the Lightbringer comic remake I successfully crowdfunded last year to your PO Box. We’re gearing up to do the campaign for the second book in the trilogy.
Love to hear what you think of it!!
Guess I should fully watch the video BEFORE I try to shill my work!! I appreciate the kind words :-)
You're cool people, Liz. Enjoyed your appearance on Nick Rekieta's show!
When it comes to advertising your own work that was advertised, I'd tell the Iron Lizzes to stand back and stand by...
Got my copy too love it!
Hi Liz.
I think the lesson of this movie is that, like a lovecraftian plot point, the knowledge of channel awesome is malicious knowledge that intentionally causes harm to your brain, to thank you for giving it a warm meaty home.
It's completely unfair to compare linkaras film with thunder road and clerks, etc. Those films were made by people with talent.
Frank Miller saying “I have no apologies” is the epitome of based
I mean, why should he?
@@USSMariner he shouldn’t, it’s based
@@Gojeto346 no it really isn’t. Linkara is a douchebag, sure. But that doesn’t make miller less bad.
Huh, I heard that as "I have to apologize", I see now.
@@USSMariner don't know about "sorry" but he should be ashamed for making garbage like the Dark Night Returns sequels, All-Star Batman & Robin and Holy Terror. Those are some of the worst things ever to be put on paper 🤣🤣🤣
Hide your green M&Ms and Muppet plushies, it's time for Atop the Fourth Wall.
I find it ironic that Angry Joe who's character is an insane rager, is one of the only ones who didn't turn out to be insane in that lot.
Guy has bad takes, but he's not a knobhead.
@@NebLleb instead of being out of his mind
he'll ask
"ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND!"
He’s insane
@@NebLlebjust makes him human, we all have bad takes
he's not insane, just retarded
I think the lesson that we can all take away from Linkara's entire existence is to not throw rocks when you're so deluded you don't know you live in a house made of two-way mirrors.
I mean, at that point, at least get better at throwing rocks
I guess he wasn't gonna teach us all a lesson we won't learn, after all.
Mister Metokur: Make sure to delete your history, especially when you were younger, and for the love of God never make an account for a porn site.
So don't throw stones in glass houses then
@@mariokarter13 Failing at that, at least do not use your personal email to do so. Like, hell, those things are so easily backtraceable.
The lesson here is don't be a narcissist and work towards your goals the right way, slowly, step by step, don't assume or just hope you'll get some big break that'll make your dreams come true.
I was actually a fan of Linkara, but I'm glad I'm not anymore, he's the kind of person I've realized I hate.
I never cared for him, he was genuinely so unremarkable I never watched his content and when i tried it was so boring I couldn't even finish the video
@@AbrasiousProductionsYeah, I watched a few of his videos in the early days, but stopped because I quickly realised that it was the comics he was reviewing I found funny, not him, in fact he often made them less funny because he beat you over the head with the obvious.
@@robokill387 I never cared for the dude, always seemed boring.
@@robokill387 This was my exact same experience. I tried to see some of his stuff, but his rants seemed really out of place and mean spirited. Plus, like literally every single person from CA, they usually missed the point of what they were "reviewing".
"You've never looked into the face of an angry god and made it blink" is a badass line. It's kind of impressive how Linkara managed to completely ruin it through overwriting and bad delivery.
Actually, I think he based it off a line in Venture Bros. where Rusty Venture said, "I spat in the eye of god...and he blinked."
The mark of so many bad writers is over-writing dialogue. It's painful.
@@KingSpectre844so many think they can write like Tolkien only to find out that that writing like Tolkien is really fucking hard
Hm, I like the sound of that.
*Note to self, save that line for future project..*
He has neither the look nor the voice to pull off a badass line like that. No matter what his wish-fulfilment fantasy says, he is not an action hero.
The funniest thing Linkara has done to this day is have Rocco Botte bully the shit out of him with the History of Voltage Vengerz series.
The best part is Rocco didn't even know who he was at the time. He just got shown that video and just couldn't believe someone could hate their own fans this much.
Ooo, is there a video here on RUclips ... or should I google it?

No problem, dude!
Rocco is a sensitive guy too, I once asked him if he was doing a bit at acting like such a shill over Disney Star Wars of all things like a NerdCrew kinda thing and he got mad lol
Having that clip from the Grey of Liam Neeson begging God to save him fit too well.
Can’t wait for the Lightbringer x Sonichu crossover comic
Based Seymour
Linkara thinkg he's tough, but he is no match for the sheer autistic energy contained in a single curse ye hame ha
@@NothingKingKN A singularity of unknown levels of cringe would be created.
Keep dreamin'.
Can't help but think that the 90s kid and a loli teaming up to beat up Linkara would be among Luis's ultimate kink fantasy list... only made better if Mis. Piggy and the green M&M were involved
" _Deeeeeeeeeewwwwd_ ! Screwin' the Green M&M is AWESOME!!"
@@EvilDoresh **Green M&M puts on a strap on**

Only if the loli was also a dickgirl. Then Linkara's fantasy would be complete.

@@EvilDoresh Tucker Carlson apparently shares the same fetish
I wish I had the money to pay for James McCaffrey, the man who voices Max Payne, to read that opening monologue you wrote in his deep, brooding Max Payne voice.
That would have been perfection.
“I thought jack Lupino was a crazy bastard. But to the best of my knowledge lupino never got his rocks off to rape, dead muppets, Raceplay, cuck porn, or the green M&M. With this I have seen true evil. I knew I’d had to kill him. He was a sick bastard, he was gonna hurt somebody.”
I would rather have him narrate pages from Lightbringer lol
@@ZeGermanFox "I would rather have him narrate pages from Lightbringer lol" Oh God, the first thing that popped into my mind as I read that:
"There was something disturbingly familiar about the letter before me. The handwriting was all pretty curves. 'You're in a really bad, amateurish comic series, Max.' The truth split my skull open - the bad artwork, the poorly porportioned limbs, the seemingly endless acres worth of page space taken up by speech bubbles, the look on my smudged, crayon-colored face displaying no trace of thought or humanity ...... I was in a bad comic. Funny as hell, it was the most horrible thing I could think of."
You could try asking him. There are a few VAs that’ll do short line readings just for fun.
A comic artist who unironically thinks he has been through more than anyone else alive, is extremely autistic, severely overestimates his own skills in everything, in entirely financially dependent on e-begging, and is obsessed with exclaiming his own "artistic" creations based off his self-inserts to be high art worthy of praise despite the minimal effort put into them?
I'm impressed, I didn't realize Chris-chan managed to make a movie.
God I wish Chris-chan made a movie. That's like number 1 on the genie wishlist. I need to see a live-action curse-ye-ha-me-ha, inflicting divorce on someone.
@@WinasaurusI’m honestly shocked Chris never attempted to make a sonichu film, considering he was delusional enough to think he would get a game made
@@leviticusprime4904 I think the issue is that at the time, Reggie and Jay-Z were thinking of a different direction for the franchise. A film is for a more refined audience, but you need a game to bring in the kids to set the franchise really.
But more seriously, I think it's just that he was autistically obsessed with games and so that's what he was thinking about at the time. I'm sure if the sonic movie came out earlier he'd be like harvey weinstein but for animated movies.
@@Winasaurus “Harvey Weinstein of animated movies”, you mean John Lasseter?
He also accuses anyone and everyone of being a troll/trolling him and trying to get a rise out of him instead of being mature and trying to take it in stride. What a freak.
My heart sank when I saw the notification and was faced with the face of the *Lightbringer* himself
The bad comics weren’t the only thing burning. My soul was also burning as his eyes drilled into mine. Linkara, have mercy on me
Mercy isn't known in his fetish
If you tell Ron Liefeld that his art sucks, he wouldn't care. I respect.
His art does suck though. No respect.
Seeing how many comic artists nowadays visibly stopped trying, I'd take Rob's trying too hard over that any day
Though I will concede that some of his worst criticisms (looking at you heroes reborn Cap) are well earned
His art actually does suck tho
@@brendaspence1824 I know that his art sucks, but I respect the man of the fact that he doesn't care if you say that his art sucks.
What *is* CA-era Linkara's power fantasy, anyway? He touches on so many of them at once that it's impossible to work out. Does he want to be a suave, classy, and charismatic crooner? A stern, troubled, yet respected Picard-like commander? A superhero? An angel? Doctor Who? It's like he sees a new bit of media he likes every couple of weeks and it completely takes over the creative part of his mind until he sees something else. I'd call it a symptom of autism, but... it's not like we need to dig *that* deep to work that out about him.
Loli is totally correct: Linkara is a less talented Neil Breen.
There seems to be some commonality. It seems like he sincerely wants to be seen as some powerful but mysterious and intelligent gentleman. Like he thinks he'll be intriguing while acting like he knows better than everyone.
i think all of those combined. he wants to be both feared and respected. he wants SOME kind of love, respect, or recognition of his supposed "talents", and yet when someone gives an honest criticism to him he sees it as an attack on his character or talent. It's really sad to see, as it's pretty common with most guys who spend way too much time on frivolous topics and put far too much investment into their internet persona. Dude, there's a real world with real people in it.
Even as young autistic kid who really enjoyed Channel Awesome movies unironically (With the exception of To Boldly Flee) I could never NEVER finish this movie.
Say what you want about Doug but at least he has some form of charisma. Linkara has the self awareness of a Goldfish in some of these and it's absolutely painful to watch. In no universe can I ever imagine myself enjoying this film. Ironic or otherwise.
Somehow I was really into at4w,still skipped this movie back then lol
@@squigin3380 Same. I enjoyed AT4W when I was younger but somehow his skits were extra weak for me
@@nono9543 yeah I would always skip the at4w universe story parts in his reviews even then
I remember LOVING Channel Awesome as a kid, back when it was ThatGuyWithTheGlasses, thankfully I could never get into Linkara. Even then I thought he was a smug, obnoxious jackass
same exact opinion
>Looks at thumbnail
>Looks at title
>Realizatiom kicks in
And Lo, I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him! And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth!
lets also remember that Linkara unironically declared himself better than George Lucas
Between this movie and Lightbringer? He couldn't hold muster to _Uwe Boll!_
@@TheEmperorHyperion exactly. the ego on Linkara would be impressive if it wasnt so infuriating
That's probably one of the most annyoing things about him if you stare into the abyss for too long.
Not only does he like to praise his own creations, but he tends to belittle _other_ content producers in the same breath. It's like he can't stroke his ego properly without going "I'm better than X".
Dude even had to shit on the Irate Gamer for this, because apparently he couldn't think of anyone else with "worse lore".
@@EvilDoresh the fact that he had to resort to dunking on someone who hasnt been relevant in ten years is pathetic. I remember seeing that parody (I was still a fan of Linkara) and just sort of begrudgingly liking it, but in hindsight? The IG bashing had long run its course.
@@EvilDoresh at least the irate gamer redeemed himself from what i have heard.
Nostalgic critic didn’t die for our sins For this shit to be made
How long until Linkara catches a sexual assault accusation considering he claims himself is a such a big feminist and male ally
When they find the child corpses in his backyard
Kind of surprised something like that has not already happened to him. I guess he is largely super protected by his Mods and so. Yet, knowing his habits, something will likely slip through one day.
Undoubtedly several situations like that have been defused without us knowing. One will slip out eventually.
@@rootfish2671 dressed as Muppets, and a Green M&M latex statue in the shed, "painted" white.
I bet you Iron Liz knows something... I BET YOU.
When I was stuck in an elevator once with Linkara when I forgot some stuff from my hotel room at some convention years ago it was like that scene from Evangelion but instead of angry brooding it was just me awkwardly me holding back my urge to "MMMMM!!!". One of the highlights of the last few years honestly.
mmmmmmmmmm what does that mean?
Should have asked him about muppet babies
Did you have green M&Ms on you to distract him just in case?
@@emytzu I don't think I needed to distract him he seemed pretty set on getting into his hotel room lmao. However if he was more than a mere man and in fact some kind of mystical and whimsical cryptid I'd probably be dead because I had no offerings of m&ms green or otherwise. I think I'm fine with it just being a funny awkward coincidence that stuck with me for the last few years instead of an encounter with he who sits upon the wall.
Loli missed an opportunity by not starting with a rant about his "History of Channel Awesome" videos and how they'll be "out when they're out."
We like that, "it'll be out when it's out". Great work ethic.
Don't you talk about me you son of a bitch!

I wonder if loli will be the new thorn in his side like oneyplays and Doug
THE ONLY PLACE LOLIS BELONG IS GETTING RAPED BY THE GREEN M&M - Lewis, probably
As somebody who has worked in the film and television industry, it always baffles me how online personalities like Linkara decide to use their budgets when they get funded for projects like this. I've seen and worked on films made for next to nothing that are better than anything Linkara has done because they bothered to: hire professional actors, rent a high quality camera, rent professional lighting, and sound equipment and hire crew members that know how to utilize the equipment properly. People like Linkara don't understand they'll never be taken seriously as filmmakers because they lack a basic understanding of what goes in to making a "legitimate" movie. Worst of all, Linkara refuses to learn about the filmmaking process in any way and don't even bother to try and improve on his previous works technically or artistically.
It's kind of like meeting that one kid who made a funny video project with his friends for class back in highschool after 10 years. They claim they're a filmmaker now, then they show you their movie and it looks exactly the same as their video from high school. Some people just don't get it. Maybe it's Linkara's ego, or maybe he just never really cared.
Probably because no professional that isn't desperate for money would take this project on.
Or they would have to change it up so much it wouldn't even result in AT4W movie.
I mean, even for a movie about himself....would you even cast Linkara as the main character? As an actor even?
To be fair, you could say the same about the CA movies.
What really gets me is the direction. There wasn't any, at least not in the sense anyone who knows anything about filmmaking would recognize. How else do you explain shots like 23:18, 23:26, 25:18, or 39:00?
You could have the nicest camera, lighting, and sound in the world and it wouldn't make 17:48 look decent. It wouldn't make everyone look in the right direction, or make all the red solo cups vanish.
I think it was a feature creep. They wanted to cram in too much and lost control, so they have to sacrifice something. Sadly it was quality.
The only one of this group that did anything of worth while was Brad Jones. The films I saw of his, send that he at least understands how to actually shoot a film on a micro budget and the basic fundamentals of film making.
31:00 WTF?????? He named the black football star..... TYRONE?

@@PTp1ranha With perpetually dead eyes.
For a guy who was really upset during the change the channel controversy, Linkara really loves drawing all of his influences from Channel Awesome's movies.
That's a carryover from how the superhero comics he reads handle continuity across series, early on he used to crossover with Spoony's Dr Insano character as a villain for his reviews and shit, until later on when Lewis introduced an alternate universe Dr Insano played by himself so he could use the character without having to rely on Spoony being avaliable.
He also had a whole plot about an alternate terrorist version of himself or something (I don't think it was Mecha Chara) threatening to blow up Marvel HQ to make them delete One More Day from Spiderman canon, and Lewis giving an awesome speech about how they shouldn't take the easy way out but instead do it right and make a good story to retcon the whole thing, and I guess something about how terrorism was kinda outta line or something.
Point is dude takes continuity in indefinitely running episodic shit that isn't designed to have a serialised continuity in the first place very seriously, both in his hobbyies as well as his channel, he was part of Channel Awesome at some point so he has to find a way to keep continuity and reestablish the status quo when no one but him gives a fuck about it.
Five bucks says linkara will make a tweet complaining about this
Long-time Linkara fan, here;
He was one of the first RUclips reviewers I really started seriously following, and for a long time, he was my favorite reviewer on all of RUclips, and even an inspiration for a few of my very small video backlog [like, the two actual reviews I made] I genuinely like his videos, his 'History of Power Rangers' series genuinely got me interested in a franchise I'd originally just written off as stupid -and I still am, to this day, BTW.
Heck; the clip of his refutation of Doug's 'Bat Credit Card' bit is probably the most popular video on my channel, to the point where I think even OneyPlays cited it and directly or indirectly directed their fans _to_ _my_ _video_ , a fact I genuinely find humbling.
By all indication, he seemed like a genuine dude, a guy who just loved comics and the wild and wacky superhero medium, who openly and unashamedly enjoyed the crazier side of the funnybooks. I didn't want to accept that he was really a bad person, I also simply took Metokur's expose on him to just be an embarrassing edgy teenage phase he wants to forget about.
But... as time went on, and political discourse in general became more... stupid... it started to slowly bleed into his videos, and my doubts finally began to properly manifest. But even during his cringe-inducing three-part defense of 'The Last Jedi' -and the majority of my counterarguments he just flat-out ignored; I simply took it as nothing more than a bad take born from a different opinion. Then I discovered Kinky-Linky, and I accepted the hard truth; that Lewis 'Linkara' Luvhog is a complete, narcissistic @$$hole.
I still watch his videos. For now, I can still separate the art from the artist -MOST of the time. But, now that I know what lies beneath the surface? Now that I know what he's really like? Now that I know its only a matter of time before I can no longer separate the art from the artist?
Well... Its been a wild ride.
I've known for a while, now, that I'll one day have to cut him out of my feed, altogether. But after the JSG fallout; I've come to realize just how fallible the majority of people, in general, are, and none of the people I follow are any exception. And knowing the Linkara ride is coming to an end? Well, it all just adds a layer of soft bitterness to the whole circumstance.
I wish things were different, I wish he'd just take his shortcomings on the chin and laugh at himself like the rest of us, to just own up to being a gross deviant in his youth [like we all were, let's be honest. Don't lie to me] and to make 'The Lightbringer' a frequent recurring character in his videos. I wish someone I looked up to in my younger days could be humble, could truly be inspirational.
But... he is, after all, only human. And humans are not immortal. Everyone dies, everything fades... and everything comes to an end.
This comment is long. I apologize for nothing.

As a fan of Brad Jones, I always found it funny that the “worst” that people have to say about him is his Loyalty to Doug. Mister Metokur didn’t have a bad thing to say about him, and all the critical looks at CA seem to leave him unscathed. Only Guru Larry is the one that’s 100% under the radar for these things.
If anyone can answer why “Breadtube” is so called that would be great.
It's a joke about bread lines.
If I remember correctly that sub-culture chose that name for themselves.
@@LethargicGM
It’s more than just bread lines.
They take their name from Kropotkin’s “The Conquest of Bread,” which is an idealistic screed about how great socialism is. I think the central premise is about the need to control food supply to give the world True Communism(tm), but it ends with an admission that his vision is idealistic and wouldn’t work with the realities of life.
So for Breadtube to take that name is a very amusing admission of not having self-awareness to those of us in the know.
As for Brad, his drama was more internal, like him firing one of his more popular contributors because a girl he had the hots for didn’t reciprocate but DID reciprocate with said contributor.

The examples you stated regarding power fantasies like Berserk and James Bond give off a second hand power high while Linkara's work is just emotional masturbation. The fantasy is strictly for him
Also I don't think anyone _really_ wants to be Guts, or really _anyone_ in his setting. It's not a fun place to be around.
@@EvilDoresh Exactly. Instead, people want to see him achieve happiness and be free of the Brand of Sacrifice.
@@EvilDoresh yeah I'm not sure Berserk was a good example to pick, he's cool but you don't really wanna live his life like you would James Bond or Indiana Jones'.

@@jhonmaverick9963 Though I'd personally prefer it to be able to sleep _without_ every restless spirit in the area homing in on me XD
Linkara never fully figured out what made AVGN and Nostalgia Critic so popular. He was never able to laugh at himself. James and Doug made characters that were not heroes by any stretch and made it very clear that they are overreacting in an attempt at self deprication of how pathetic and narcissistic the fandoms they frequent can be. Linkara believes everything he says is important and he is better than you, making his pouting at his parodies over the years an inevitability.
But then again, that worked in context a decade ago. In the Golden Age of Channel Awesome (so, until about Suburban Knights), he existed in the broader environment of the other "angry reviewers" of the site. In that context, he formed a bit of a Freudian Trio with the two other biggest reviewers there: the NC was a the Id (a deranged, self-centered, borderline villainous manchild character), Spoony was the Ego (unlike most angry reviewers, he didn't play a separate persona, automatically making him the most natural and "normal" one) and Linkara was the Superego (the nicest, most morally upstanding of the three, eventually evolving into a kind of gadgeteer superhero character).
However, once that dynamic (which only loosely existed, to begin with) fell apart, so did the three of them. NC became self-absorbed and chasing his past glory, Spoony couldn't divorce his real life and his online activity, and chose to abandon the latter, and Linkara became more self-righteous and overbearing over time.
very true, lewis took himself way too seriously.
@@Horvath_Gabor good point
I think its really telling that Linkara refutes all criticism of his film as "bullying" more or less, yet he is allowed to call the guy who wrote Starman a hack fraud because he wrote 1 bad comic where he killed off his favourite character.
As an actor who acted in high school and was terrible in highschool and now understands acting *far* past his prime and *far* past when anyone would hire him it’s easy to say “these people are awful”
But the truth is that most people don’t truly understand character acting, like politics, until they are in at least their mid 30s. This is where most people begin to truly understand their bodies.
This is exactly WHY most actors you see in high school roles are 20-30somethings playing high schoolers.
When I looked that the TV Tropes page "He Really Can Act", I legitimately cringed at the inclusion of Lewis. He can't act for fucking shit!
@@horaciosi he probably wrote that in himself

he failed

He failed.
I dont think he failed, he succeeded but not in the way he imagined and instead of being bitter about it, he embraced it and ran with it. And for that, he deserves respect.
Linkara is a smarmy sanctimonious tool who derides the depiction of female characters in comics whilst also having questionable kinks. He's a massive hypocrite and just like his contemporaries he doesn't criticise the art, he wants to dictate the art.
I must say I envy your vocab
Funny thing about Brad Jones is that he was the snarky hard-edged snobby film guy for the first few years of his show. But some time after his E.T. knockoff marathon, and after he started doing his DVD-R Hell series, he slowly transitioned to a less dry, less snobby and more quirky, almost kid's show parody of himself. Like a tongue-in-cheek Mr. Rogers that talks about crappy 70s musicals and slasher films for 30 minutes.
I consider everything related to TGWTG as radioactive, but that description actually intrigues me. Maybe I'll check him out one day.
@@esprit101 I consider Brad Jones the least cringy person to be associated with the core of Channel Awesome. He does his own thing and always has and never felt like his main line reviews needed skits. He saved that for his 80's Dan series.
Phelous is probably the guy with the least baggage, though, as I've never once heard anyone bad-mouth him, past or present.
@@FilmmakerJ I'll look into him, but I found Redlettermedia ~11 years ago and their content pretty much supplanted anything from TGWTG and associates.
They actually knew how to let a joke breathe, don't think references equal comedy and make fun of themselves all the time. It's like a straight upgrade on anything Doug and friends ever did.

@@FilmmakerJ phelous is so funny watch his dingo picture films reviews
I have just realized something about Linkara. He got relentlessly bullied for his lightbringer comic because it was bad and an outlet for his narcissism. So he took the lesson to heart stopped with the lightbringer and chose to use a different medium to tell his most important message to all. That message is: "Linkara is the most brilliant person there is to walk the planet" and you can now see this in the "lore" of his internet comic reviews. That is a lot of determination in the face of adversity.
It makes you wonder if he decided to took this persona of someone who reviews bad comics so that he could say "oh yeah, my comics are bad? Well look at comics that are WORSE"
Linkara's beef with Frank Miller was always funny to me. Hands down one of the greatest comic book authors of all time, and Linkara is livid that he featured hot chicks in his comics. Oh the horror!
He did make Holy Terror which even Miller hates but still having a different opinion doesn't mean taking personal beef with someone
My favorite part is Lniki refusing Frank's apology
Frank Miller was great. He hasn't written anything good in a real long time.
Then ya didn't get what the outburst was about how they're basically just trophies and blatant about it, nothing under the skin.
@@Sousabird All of his newer stuff just feels like a troll on comic books in general. I always assumed he was bitter about the industry, like Alan Moore is.
Linkara is basically what I envision most redditors look and sound like. Complete with the utter lack of self-awareness and having no real opinions outside what makes them sound righteous.
Two signs that we live in the bad timeline:
1) Linkara made a movie instead of Spoony.
2) Film Brain cameo’d in Spoony’s videos.
Edit: Also you may as well call Erod “Angry Internet Reviewer number 341”. The idea of him getting pissy that he didn’t get to star in Too Boldly Flee is funny to me. It’s the equivalent of an intern asking the CEO if he could be part of the board of directors.
Loli, seriously. Thank YOU for torturing yourself to clear up the weird ass Channel Awesome Doc, sharing the fallout, and essentially showing everyone several years later what this whole mess amounted too. As weird as this sounds, I've watched your channel awesome video several times just to try and even understand this whole fucking drama around this channel. Fucking nuts bro. Again, thank you for all your work.
Linkara justified swatting people. that's all you need to know about who he is.
Well, technically he denied that the swatting happened. Still shitty, just a different shitty
10:55
ERod had one of the strangest relationships with fans.
He used to complain A LOT about not making enough money, getting screwed by people, being an unknown among thousands of reviewers... And yet he treated his fans like trash.
He and his team used to give really dry and harsh answers when fans asked basic questions.
I remember when people asked him if he had watched the BvS trailer, his reponse was "OF COURSE I'VE SEEN IT. STOP SENDING ME THIS MESSAGE. WHOEVER KEEPS ASKING THIS WILL BE BANNED.'
So he was basically Spoony without the talent ? maybe a little worse than Spoony actually.
It's kinda unfortunate that Linkara sounds almost NEAR identical to Chris-Chan in voice minus the accent but it is also extremely hilarious that he is one degree or rather one chromosome away from just being Chris-Chan
His voice, his morbid obesity, his terrible takes, his delusions of grandeur. He’s just like Chris
But instead of transitioning, he has a fetish for them. Possible ship?
Amazing how they both are opening perverted and closeted about their $exual interests. Yet try to act like respectable proper gentlemen with a moral high ground when confronted about it. Both made terrible comics with ripped off material. Both are narcissistic and egocentric, have no understanding why they get made fun of yet it’s there own fault.

I have a personal story about Linkara. Some years ago, not that long after the change the channel document, Linkara made one of his milestone videos, I think it was his 600th video or something like that. Anyways, in the beginning of the video Linkara talk about his past, but purposely leav out trying out for the tgwtg contest. Making a joke about him not beaing inspierd by anyone else. So I make this comment on the video "still bad blood between you and channel awsome I see."
Literally 10 seconds later (I am not exaggerating) Linkara reply to my comment. Asking me why I hadd to drag up drama and bring down the mode on such a happy day. the before I can even reply to Linkara I get an other reply. And that has to be one of the most aggressiv comments I have ever gotten, reading more like a parodi of an angry youtube comment, lot of swear words. But of course Linkara hadd no problem with that comment. Anyway I told Linkara that I only trolled him a littel about it becuse, you know, he made a joke about it in his video. Linkara then told me that I hadd missunderstod the joke, and that he hadd pland to make it look like doug walker hadd nothing to do with the creation of his show long before the channel awsome document. I call BS but either way how was I supposed to know that. He also is perplexed at the very consept of one of his fans making a joke at his expense, asking me why I would think to do something like that. He also informed me that he would not tolerate bad behavior and would not hesitate banning me. Agien completely ignoring that pargaph long comment calling me every swear word known to man.
Anyway I get kind of pissed at this point, and tell him that yes I am indeed willing to make jokes about pepole I like, and that it was he who choosed to respond to the comment about the drama, insted of the comment I hadd made earlier congratulating him on his milestone.
He then told me that he was too busy to respond to every comment, because if I had not noticed, he got a lot of comments and he hadd work to do.
I scrolled true alle 500 comments on the video at the time. Literally all of them vere just congratulating him or wishing him the best, exept two that who noticed that Linkara's voice was a little of. They were the only other comments Linkara hadd responded to, telling them that he indeed hadd a sore throat.
This is my first time hearing Linkara and holy shit he sounds just like Oney when he's doing the Linkara impression
Oney's a talented impersonator.
Here's something: Why is James Rolfe's movie the _only_ one that's actually about his profession? If I recall, it's about reviewing the ET game. Sure, the premise is more than that, but his character's aim as the Nerd in that film had to do with reviewing a crappy game, which is what he does, right? So why doesn't Linkara's movie have to do with reviewing a bad comic? Was he actually arrogant enough to believe that his fans wanted to see him make a film about his character, rather than reviewing a film?
(of course, he is, what am I talking about?)
"Was he actually arrogant enough to believe that his fans wanted to see him make a film about his character, rather than reviewing a film?"
Pretty much, yeah?
From the perspective of someone who did watch Linkara for a while at the beginning, it was maybe about 2-3 years in where he seemed to think the size of his audience meant he could start telling a story in his videos that people would want to see. He honestly seemed surprised when like half the people who watched his videos were leaving comments like "dude why you keep stopping the review for 5-10 mins to have a dumb fight with ur evil twin who cares about that sh!t". Which made him move all that stuff to the end of the video so people who just wanted to see the reviews could just see that without getting mad about the dumb interruptions.
But he still thought he could make this big space epic a lot of his fans would want to see. Even though a *big* part of them made it clear they didn't care about his lore, and he actually changed his structure to make them happy.
TAL took no chances with this one, if he played this on stream only God knows what shota would've done
Is linkara the same person who cried about individuals using ad-block?
Yes it's basically what spawned the meme "stop using ad block you're being selfish"
"Yeah, Doug not taking everyone to Applebee's is canon."
How the hell did Linkara rope Lanipator into this? Dude somehow got one of the founding Team Four Star members to take part in a "movie" as a character that's carried by his performance.
Same as takahata 101 just ask and they work for free, joking aside linkara may had just ask Lani while in a Con Lani just said sure why not
TeamFourStar was actually really close to Channel Awesome early on. When TFS got their channel taken down by Funimation the first time, CA actually stepped in and hosted DBZA on TGWTG. As a result, TFS was really friendly with the CA guys. So Lanipator being in Linkara’s movie makes sense.
@@jackdaone6469 Also Linkara once voice acted in DBZA too (voicing the Namekian elder that Vegeta kills), so Linkara in particular already had a working relationship with them long before this movie.

Upon seeing this upload I felt my entire body fling it’s soul out in sheer terror…. and yet I’m still gonna watch this for AL’s review.
I like how Linkara is offended about the studio supervision when the biggest movie studios in the world have a whole team of studio managers specifically hired to tell the production teams what they can and cannot do.
My favorite cringe moments:
1) The middle portion of the movie where Linkara's various side characters impart deep wisdom on those _lesser_ characters. Also includes an OOC moment for Lupa (90's Kid lectures Lupa about the wonders of loving terrible crap from the 90's, even though afaik Lupa's reviewer shtick is loving terrible crap from the _80's_ ; you'd think they shouldn't need until the grand finale to become BFFs)
2) That studio / warehouse used in the finale just kills the mood. I know these movies aren't exactly known for professional lighting, but this was supposed to be a derelict base on a moon of Jupiter (I _think_ ). It shouldn't be the most brightly lit set in the entire movie - especially not if you want to use it for horror and action.
3) You'd think the finale would be more of a team effort, but Linkara is really the only important contributor. _He_ figures out the villain's secret, and _he_ takes him out _twice_ (having your reviewer buddies stand behind you to power up your magic ghost girl gun doesn't count).
If he had less of an ego he could've used himself as bait / distraction (since MechaKara hates him more than those other people he's barely interacted with)
4) The derpy costume and robot walk of the "upgraded" MechaKara. When the first budget Power Rangers villain you had in your storyline has a more threatening costume and presence than the most powerful version of your archnemesis, you might want to reconsider a few things.
Lol. Talking about Lord Vyce, there?
It seems all these creators basically made Space Cop-level shit, but didn't acknowledge how awful it was in the end. I always love when RLM takes pot shots at their own movie and how terrible it was, the Channel Awesome crowd seems to take themselves wayyyy to seriously.
Excluding the members who left, of course. E.g. Lupa is fun and folding ideas makes genuinely great essays.
@@jackdaone6469 Yeah. He's like the _only_ villain that looks okay.

Linkara's attitute has grown quite disgusting in the last few years. I used to just go with it because he was the only one out there talking about certain comics, but at some point I just had to stop because his personality became unbearable. The fact that he lashed out at his fans for the flimsiest of reasons is what really got me. It's like he took the "angry nerd" persona and forgot it was supposed to be an act.

So back when I was a big CA fan, I did watch Linkara, lore included. Mentioning the filming in the woods reminded me of something, where in lore Link Boy first defeated Viceroy (the dude who had the spaceship first), he deserted him on an "arctic alien planet" which was just the fucking woods in winter. You are absolutely correct on that.
Well, to his (probably accidental) credit, he didn't say *ant*arctic. The arctic actually has flora.
@Mariner1712 That's true, but I mainly meant that Loli is absolutely correct in that outdoor scenes could have been done, and the fact he wasted money with the filming set is frustrating.
Wasn't that Lord Vice?
19:27 I can tell you why Linkara sees Mecha-kara as his ultimate foe. He's a Trekkie, and the Borg are one of the toughest foes the Federation in Star Trek ever fought. So basically, a Borg version of Linkara is a foe that Linkara sees as the pinnacle of threats, since it's a foe that knows him and can adapt to his strategies. This is literally the extent of his imagination: some junk pile that looks like him and can adapt to his strategies is the ultimate evil in his mind. That's how predictable Linkara is as a creator: he needs an ultimate villain, he's a Trekkie, so he just plucks a villain straight from Star Trek, adds his face to it, and places that in as the ultimate villain for his movie. It's so predictable that it's funny. Of course, a comic book fan and a Trek fan would have such a predictable final foe.
Mechakara was originally Pollo (the little blue robot) from another universe with a robot uprising. He came to this world through hypertime to figure out how magic works to try and stop humanity from successfully rising against the robots. He has more in common with the Terminator than the Borg.
Linkara's "ultimate enemy" is either Lord Vyce (literally a power rangers villain) or the Entity (MissingNo from Pokemon. Really.)
@@HalfTangible Yet the fact that he's basically become a Borg ripoff (down to the whole assimilating crewmen and adapting to the enemy thing) pretty much means that in the end, Linkara just has a Borg version of himself.
Those other ultimate villains are even more of a ripoff.
@HalfTangible so his villains are as follows:
Noah Antwiler's robot + Sigma from _Mega Man X,_ plus the Borg
A literal _Power Rangers_ villain
A glitch in _Pokémon Red & Blue_
What's his next villain gonna be, Gary Miller from _Faith?_ Is he gonna fight a tornado like in _Superman Returns: The Game,_ but it's in the middle of nowhere, Oregon? Oh I know, how about literally *killing Chaos* like good ol' Jackie G?
@@TheEmperorHyperion I think his next villain was a literal faceless thing dressed in tubes called the King of worms, it died offscreen though. I stopped watching after that arc.
@@TheEmperorHyperion A guy with a bandana covering his face voiced by LittleKuriboh in a tournament arc.
Calls his show Atop the Fourth Wall.
Possesses absolutely no self-awareness.
He’s the Fourth’s Walls Bottom
35:03 the writing with his voice and the dialogue makes it seem like a funny intentionally bad performance... then it keeps going... and it keeps going... and it gets edgier... and you realize he saw this as some deep moment in his head.
I was literally expecting a comedic ramp-up. "YOU'VE never had your SHOES tied together after gym class by bullies so you TRIP when you try to WALK!!" "YOU'VE never had to take a JAR to your DAD's house because you're too WEAK to open it YOURSELF!!" "YOU'VE NEVER HAD YOUR MINECRAFT SAVE CORRUPTED!! YOU DON'T KNOW MY PAIN!!"
