I don’t think it’s that close. Film Brain is pretty good at pointing out flaws in the movies he reviews and I think most of his jokes are actually good, but he’s simply the wrong person to deliver them – someone else could probably make his show hilarious.
The Distressed Watcher also isn’t THAT bad (see his video on Transformers 2 on YouTube) but his vids on TGWTG are just painful.
In during ye olde TGWTG/Film Brain/Distressed Watcher arguement.
^Matthew G: I can see where you’re coming from, and admittedly I have a hard time watching his videos just because his voice and delivery are just so annoying, so I’m open to the possibility that his material might be funny if someone else delivered it. Like the Shameful Sequels guy, for instance. Then again, he is very, very nitpicky about almost everything, and I thought many of his jokes were distasteful too (masturbating under the desk, anyone?).
This has nothing to do with the video (which was brilliant), but I’m loving the new photoshop images above the right sidebar.
The Spune one had me laughing for ages.
Yeah, I don’t get the whole Trailer Failure bit, either. Seriously, what’s the point? We know trailers are inaccurate and terrible; that’s kinda their reason for existing. They are adverts, nothing more. If a trailer doesn’t appeal to you that either means that the ad company screwed up (which, at least, means that it really is a failure so the title is correct) or you are not the target audience. To use trailers as the basis for a movie review is ridiculously silly. One does not seriously review a car based on the ads for it, right? Can you imagine if cleaning liquids were reviewed entirely based on their adverts? Every single one would simultaneously be the best thing on planet earth while also being inferior to all other brands. I just don’t see why anyone would bother reviewing trailers as being proper summaries of the movie they’re advertising. The very idea is impossibly naive and foolish.
Also: Benzaie rocks. He really needs to do more French lessons.
“My heart made that noise when I heard Ashley Tisdale’s cover of “Never Gonna Give you Up” The Spoony One makes it now.”
- “Do you think we should go help him?”
“What, are you crazy? Schuenzeit just kidnapped Zephy. We have to rescue her!”
“@ScreamingDoom: Thats only your opinion about the Distressed Watcher and Filmbrain.”
Eh? I don’t believe I ever mentioned Filmbrain (I rather like those videos) or the Distressed Watcher. I just don’t get the whole point of the Trailer Failure feature for reasons previously stated. That has nothing to do with the presenter of it (though I do find the Distressed Watcher’s delivery a tad on the annoying side as well).
Distressed Watched grates on my nerves. If you like him that’s great…but his delivery needs work imo…much less his tendency to reply needlessly to every negative comment he gets with immature comments or insults just got to be too much and I stopped watching
My heart made that noise when I heard the PS3 would originally cost 600 dollars…The Spoony One makes it now
My heart made that noise when I heard Darth Vader was Luke’s father… The Spoony One makes it now
My heart made that noise when Isara died in Valkyira Chronicles… The Spoony one makes it now
Man, I hope we hear this joke again, its freaking awes- wait I got another one!
My heart made that noise when I saw the Bat Credit Card for the first time… The Spoony One makes it now
Benzaie is great… My favorite line is “I have to level up in Borderlands”, that’s exactly what I’m doing right now and anyone who played that game knows how addictive it can be.
One thing tho, while I dont like final fantasy and highly doubt 13 will change my mind, whats the problem with it being on the 360? If it has to do with it losing its exclusive purity or somethin like that, it used to be a nintendo franchise, so whats the problem.
I think I speak for everyone here when I say: Your videos need more Benzaie and Beary…but not too much. Just one or two quick little jokes, or an intro. Unless you go full bore and do a joint review. That would be awsome…once in awhile.
Oh, and my heart made that noise when I played Brothers in Arms: Earned in Blood on the PS2. That game forever scarred my soul.
That is the sound of ultimate suffering. My heart made that noise when I saw Deadpool turn into some sort of SNK boss at the end of the Wolverine movie. The Spoony One makes it now.
I like The Distressed Watcher. All there is to it. Can’t really argue with anyone who dislikes him. Film Brain, though, gets on my nerves. Haven’t really seen much of his stuff, but between his annoying stereotypical opening, his voice, and his overall style, I just can’t get into his videos. I first saw his Equilibrium review with my uncle, never seen the movie and that was the first vid of his that I saw, and we both just kept saying “why is this bad?” Believe it or not, yelling “SYMBOLISM!” as if it’s a bad thing and pointing out that there are no fingerprints on guns used by someone who’s wearing fucking gloves is not funny nor entertaining. Plus, as shallow as the movie may be as I said I haven’t seen it yet, the choreography was actually really well done in my opinion.

ANYWAY! “My heart made that noise when I learned that Keanu Reeves was slated to play Spike in the Cowboy Bebop movie. The Spoony One makes it now.” I second tee shirts. Maybe with Velcro and letters so we can spell out the first part ourselves. :P
I think he could have used the Twilight joke in there and made it work better. Oh well, whats done is done. Maybe we will see some of these in other reviews?
Oh man, the sales tax one just slayed me. I wish Spoony went with that one!
Oh, and:
“… That is the sound of ultimate suffering. My heart made that noise when I saw the character breakdown for the new Conan movie. The Spoony One makes it now…”
You have unleashed a meme on the world, Benzaie. What terror hast thou wrought upon the earth?
Other M is the worst, most plodding, self-important piece of shit game of the year. Calling it. So it is twittered. So is it done.about 8 hours agofrom TweetDeck
Bah! I'll be too loaded with camera equipment to bring any awesome games with me to PAX.about 9 hours agofrom TweetDeck
For further context, even my brother thinks I'm out of my mind for liking it.about 16 hours agofrom TweetDeck
Once again I have to disagree with @thecinemasnob and the rest of the world. I thought the ending to The Last Exorcism was brilliant.about 16 hours agofrom TweetDeck

My heart made that noise when I saw Raiden, the God of Thunder, in blocky 3D. The Spoony One makes it now.
Thinking about it, I want a tee with the line “The Spoony One makes it now”!
That´d be hilarious!

So true. He is TGWTG’s biggest mistake, with Film Brain coming in at a close second.
Wait wait wait wait….

Haha that was hilarious. Benzaie and Bearie are so cool. :D

All of those – totally valid reasons. Especially Sales Tax.
The Spoony One makes it now
“My heart made that noise when I saw the second half of the Battlestar Galactica finale, The Spoony One makes it now.”
My heart made that noise when I found out that Michael Bay would be the director for Transformers, The Spoony One makes it now.
Seriously, I’m 4chaning this shit.
This has nothing to do with the video (which was brilliant), but I’m loving the new photoshop images above the right sidebar.

What the crap are you people talking about? Trailer Failure is hilarious.
My heart made that noise when Optimus Prime was killed AND ressurected for the second time. The Spoony One makes it now.
Sales tax and goatee were the best, in my opinion. And I’d like to add my voice to all the others in saying that more Benzaie would be a good thing.
And what the Hell…
My heart made that noise the first time I found out that WMG had f*cked over Spoony’s second half of his Bayou Billy review on YouTube…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IjRfDym50vg
My heart made that noise when I heard the Black Eyed Peas’ cover of Misirlou. The Spoony One makes it now.
That is hilarious!
My heart made that noise when I saw Devastator’s huge metal testicles. The Spoony One makes it now.
Hey, why did you put all of them here? You could have used them every time you have to review an awful game. Now isn’t that good idea?
“My heart made that noise listening to Bob Dylan’s new Christmas album. The Spoony one makes it now.”
That was awesome! I loved the sales tax one :D

“My heart made that noise when I got to the end of Eternal Sonata. The Spoony One makes it now.”
No seriously, Eternal Sonata was abysmal, especially that ending. <.<

My heart made that noise when Spider-Man made a deal with the devil. The Spoony One makes it now.
Benzaie is, without a doubt, one of my favourite guys on TGWTG, so it’s great to see you two working together again.
And Beary is the man! Or Bear!
I laughed at the last line!

Still, I “loe” benzaie
I bet it was hard choosing which lines to use. Several of them were pretty funny.

Hahaha, “sales tax”, and “f*ck that American shit” are my favorites! I remember him talking about sales tax in Chicago too.
