And his final fantasy and Ultima reviews
But SWAT 4 man, that was something else. I just really hate the long intro's on those.
Yeah those are awesome as well.

It's actually pretty depressing people are rejoicing over this. *sighs* I knew people hated him but... jeez.
You know what's funny, I slowly stopped watching Brad Jones because I noticed his fans were some of the biggest douchebags out there. It's sad because I don't even hate Brad. I was a big fan of him. For whatever reason, ever since seeing the ugly side of his fans, I just slowly lost interest in Brad's work, and I still think he's a great reviewer.
That's kind of disappointing, honestly. I mean, for his actual reviews, he was certainly running out of material, but there was still quite a bit of potential in some of his alternate offerings (Old vs. New, Raiders of the Lost Story Arc, etc). I wonder if whatever he intends to do next will expand on those? He's really good at his more "serious", less "screamy" material, honestly.
What about his fans? How do you even encounter them..?
Comment section of his videos.

Brad has gotten like, frighteningly skinny lately. It's a bit creepy, in a "The Machinist" sort of way...
Also, did you know Jew Wario is like, 41? I think he's older than everyone else on the site by far.
Brad is great, as long as he keeps his dumb wife out of his videos. And I legitimately enjoy some of his friends, too.
Brad and Jillian are separated, so I guess you don't have to worry about that for now.

People don't like him? Don't see how he's particularly offensive... less abrasive than AVGN, I would say.
Either way, I much prefer his genuine criticism of films (see Disneycember) to the theatrical stuff.
That's a shame. I met Brad at a convention and he's really really nice. It's like his fans are the type of people that he's mocking (actual film snobs), or they think Brad legitimately hates the movies he reviews (in reality, he likes most of them, but has made it known when he doesn't like something, like Las Vegas Bloodbath or Nukie).
Thank god. His videos are so bad. My friend would always force me to watch them and would elbow me when I didn't laugh. I loved it when Retsuprae made fun of how bad he is and how bad that one Simpsons LP was.

You do know that criticizing his LP is pretty much pointless because even he is open about how crappy it is, right? So even if you make fun of that you're just agreeing with him.
Link?
It only went on for one episode, and.....you don't want to watch it.
ah yes, schoolyard logic
I still don't see the point in that LP vid when the creator himself admitted it was stupid. :/

Nostalgia Chick, by far my least favorite, is sort of a "jack of all trades, master of none" type - kind of funny, kind of insightful, but mostly just boring, in my opinion; still, she has her place.
I like her because instead of making a show by simply whining about a movie, she actually does some research on the topic. That way her criticism looks more... intelligent than simple "I don't like that, it's stupid!".
So what happened in To Boldly Flee? I've never watched their films.
It was after the fact, in one of his Top 11 Fuck-Up" videos.
Eh, I agree and disagree with him unlike most people who watch similar videos who are all yes-men.
For instance, I agree with his stance on Tom & Jerry the movie but I disagree on his stance on The Last Action Hero. But at least he puts his opinion well and despite that he acknowledges that people may hate/like the movie.
Funny thing is, I disagree on Jingle All the Way but agree with him on Last Action Hero. I think LAH is worse than JAtW.
I also majorly disagree with him on Spider-Man 3 "being the same as the first two" as well his hate of Matilda.
It's just the vocal people that sound like yes-men, when there's plenty to disagree with. He even made (out-of-character) lists on movies he hates but everyone likes, and movies he likes but everyone hates (X-Men 3 topped the latter, something Brentalfloss and Nostalgia Chick greatly disagreed with)
You say that as if you think he's ending the site. He's just retiring a single character. All his friends will still be around and he will be back as a new character. He's not going anywhere. They bought a studio to do more stuff more quickly and more professionally. You don't like their stuff, then you don't need to be in here. Why are you in here? Do you watch it just to hate it? Because you speak as if you've seen every single thing they've done.This is a god thing. This guy and his friends were never funny. Not only that, he really tried way too hard, so it was awkward in addition to being unamusing.
I don't see where the fandom comes from, but then again people on GAF actually liked Spoony so it's not surprising.
