Looks like we've got a new page here. I wonder if anyone knows of any videos they want me to do a commentary on. I'd be glad to take on a request!

Hey, guys. I know it’s been a long time since I’ve done a commentary, but this is one I’ve been wanting to do for a long time. This one is on AVGN’s Nintendo Power video. Now, there aren’t really too much flaws in it, but there are just some things about it that are puzzling me that I have a few questions on. So, without further ado, here’s the commentary. Oh, and I’m going to skip all the intros and cut to the content, so let’s start this vid on 1:35:
1:43 – Because that’s all the fans want out of you. 2:11 – Well, I didn’t have a subscription, but I do recall Nintendo Power. Of course, when I got my NES, the Sega Genesis and Super NES were already out, so NES was kind of old news then. 2:16 – Whoa, whoa, whoa! Wait a minute! You’ve had all the issues of Nintendo Power starting with Issue #1? Dude, how did you subscribe to it so quickly? And how did you know it was about to come out? How did you do that, man? You must have been 8 years old at the time. I could never figure out how to do something like that at that age! 2:43 – Yeah, I don’t like seeing stuff like that either. I mean, who ****ing cares? 3:05 – Yep. I remember those days. 3:18 – I’d probably have problems if I was just taking a picture of my TV screen period. 3:43 – Remember when you used to make awesome videos like this? 3:57 – And that’s why all of your fans were constantly requesting you to do a review on that movie. It kinda sucks that your rival, the Nostalgia Critic, beat you to the punch. 4:07 – I briefly saw “Mickey Mousecapade†in there. Is that a foreshadowing of another game you’re planning to review in the future? 4:22 – Yeah, that’s a bad sign right off the bat, especially when you don’t look at the whole thing. 4:31 – Maybe it’s because a lot of people actually like that game! Ever think of that? 4:55 – I don’t see a face. Do you think you can maybe circle where the face is? Because I don’t see anything there. 5:05 – What material is that cover made of? I’d like to know. 5:23 – He’s not flipping the bird! That’s his index finger, not his middle finger! 5:38 – Uh…What are you doing? 5:48 – I think Gamepro or Electronic Gaming Monthly had a comic like that. 5:58 – I’d love to see somebody make a video about these comics, because they sound pretty funny. 6:10 – A 1900 number? Do those even exist? 6:27 – I didn’t know the NES was so bad ass at the time. Was it really? God d**n it, I was born too ****ing late! 7:12 – Okay, I got several questions concerning that. First of all, did you get in trouble for stapling the page shut? Because seriously, if I did something like that, I would have gotten in trouble for it, regardless if it was my magazine or not. I’m actually not joking. Second of all, I know he did say that he doesn’t remember what the ad was, but if you’ll look carefully, it’s Volume 82, March 1996. If anyone has that issue, please check the ad on the front cover, because I’m curious to know what that ad was, but I’m sure I’m not alone. 7:23 – You still have your McDonald’s bag from the Mario Happy Meal toys? I thought that would disintegrate by now. 7:26 – Eh, but it sucks that you had to barf in it. Now you gotta throw it out. 7:35 – Now that’s determination, keeping all your posters and keeping them all neat and organized like that. 7:48 – Did you really leave some of your posters in the magazines? Were you saving them particularly for this video? Man, that’s what I call planning. If I was a kid growing up with these magazines in the 90’s, I would never have thought, “Oh. I’m gonna make a video about these magazines 15 years from now. I’d better save some of the stuff in these magazines just for this occasion.†8:08 – I’ll bet that iron’s not even plugged in! 8:19 – Well, what were you expecting it to smell like? Fresh-cut roses? 8:23 – His name is not Star Fox! It’s Fox McCloud! Does this mean you’re going to start calling Samus Aran “Metroid†or Ness “Earthbound†or Link “Zeldaâ€? And you call yourself a Nintendo Nerd! 8:30 – I knew it. You’re cutting it out and trying to assemble it now. Why am I not freaking surprised? 8:52 – You sound uninterested like you think these prizes are stupid. 9:03 – Funny thing is, I remember going to the theaters and seeing a trailer for “Son of the Maskâ€, and it said it was “The Mask IIâ€, but this has nothing to do with the prize you are referring to. 9:12 – I think a good possibility the movie never got made is probably because nobody won the prize. 9:24 – Why not? Tourists visit active volcanoes all the time. 9:59 – Some of those actually did become Robot Masters. 10:03 – I find that kinda stupid when people make female counterparts to superheroes with “Man†in their name and they call them “Girlâ€. 10:07 – Couldn’t have said it better myself. 10:25 – There you go again with that classic label rant. 10:31 – Were you being serious about that, or were you being sarcastic? 10:44 – What are Nintendo tapes? 10:50 – I think I tried making that recently; it wasn’t too good. 11:00 – Reminds me of the commercial for “Link’s Awakeningâ€. Kinda short for a rap, don’t you think? 11:36 – My God! These jokes are worse than the jokes on Disney Adventures! 12:01 – Does that number even exist? 12:49 – Sounds like my homework assignments. 13:22 – That’s trollolicious! 13:56 – I don’t know why, but that response reminded me of that episode of “Norm†that had the Pokemon intro. 14:02 – And I’m going to stop the video right there because all he does is replay his intro again. Overall, this video had a few flaws and left me with some unanswered questions, and I hope somebody will answer them for me sometime in the future.

Hey, everyone! Belchic here with another commentary for you wonderful people! Yes, I know it's been forever since I've done a commentary, don't remind me!
Anyway, this is commentary is going to be on a subject who has been a dead horse for a long time. About a year and a half ago, there was this kid on YouTube named Ricky Femia who was trying to become a YouTube Partner. Why he'd want to be a YouTube Partner is beyond me, but thankfully, I have no interest in becoming one, and even if I wanted to, I couldn't anyway due to my account status. But I digress.
Anyway, this is one video of his that has gotten a ton of other commentaries on it already, and that's one of the reasons why I've held off on doing it. The second reason is because at the time, I didn't want to sound like I was picking on a little kid. And the third reason is because the original account that had this video has been terminated, but I managed to find the original video through another YouTube account, and I'd like to give a special thanks to steventhemaster for uploading it for the world to see again.
Anyway, let's begin this infamous crapfest:
0:03 - Oh, great! We're only 1 second into this video, and already, I've found the first problem with it! He misspelled the word, "First"! I don't even want to know what the rest of this video is going to be like! But I might as well do it since I've already started, and there's no turning back now.
0:21 - Okay, this intro blows my mind on so many levels. First of all, he cuts himself off before he does the song. Second of all, what's with the weird dance? Third of all, the video is not in sync. Fourth of all, the Autotune. Okay, I know everyone else who commentated on this complained over the fact that he's using Autotune, but personally, I'm amazed that this kid knows how to use Autotune, or heck, let alone have it! I didn't even know Autotune was available at places like Best Buy, Guitar Center, Sam Ash or whatever. I thought it was a special thing that could only be used by music artists, for instance, I know the Vocoder isn't available in stores. And fifth of all, why does he say, "Bye", in his intro? Isn't this supposed to be the beginning of the video?
0:27 - Ooh! Peer pressure much?
0:36 - Well, my boy, I think you've just been introduced to a well-known species known as the troll. This is a well-known species who has nothing better to do with it's life other than intentionally insult random people on the Internet just for the fun of it. People like this need to be ignored.
0:43 - Let me ask you something, Ricky. Do your parents know that you're doing this? Obviously, you're not alone in your house since I clearly see a TV on in the background, so someone must be watching it. In fact, I think I can see someone watching it right now...but then again, I could be wrong.
0:49 - Okay, first of all, what are we looking at right here? Is this a monitor for a security survelance camera? Second of all, what kind of a question is that? How would anyone know the answer to that question? I don't have an answer to that question. Heck, I don't even think the wisest men on the planet could even come up with a legitimate answer to that question! With all that said, I completely doubt that this little kid will have an answer to it! Well, let's see what Ricky has to say about it.
0:53 - *plays a clip from "Dumbo"* Timothy Mouse: I knew he never had nothing.
0:58 - *facepalms at the "Price is Right" fail music plays*
1:03 - Didn't you already say that?
1:10 - I find it kind of funny that this kid is saying the word "f*g**t". I would not be surprised if he didn't know what that word meant. Typical for a boy his age, wouldn't you say?
1:14 - And once again, you're repeating yourself. I swear, it sounded exactly like the last time you said it! It's almost like I'm listening to a skipping record here!
1:17 - If I wanted to get advice from someone, I would ask somebody who is older, wiser and more mature than me, not some overweight 10-year-old kid with a bone on his shirt. It still baffles me that this is someone who wants to become a YouTube Partner, and he does this by lying about his age to get onto YouTube so that he can make a show where he gives advice to others and fails horribly!
1:21 - Oh, now we're in a new setting? That's surprising. But what's even more surprising is that your Q&A is over. Wait...it's over already? You're stopping after only one question? Dude, talk about the lowest common denominator!
1:25 - Wh...WHAT? What the hell did you just say?
1:31 - And I'm sure you had high hopes for getting more questions. Now you know how I feel when I try to throw together Q&A's and nobody contributes, but at least I'm over 18 and have a couple hundred subscribers. And for pete's sake, stop talking like you're in the middle of a dental appointment!
1:38 - Double thinking action, ladies and gentlemen! He might answer your question, but he might not, but he probably will! This is a kid who seriously can't make up his mind.
And that's the end of the video. Final verdict: I'm glad Ricky got banned. This little kid should not be on YouTube. He's too young, he doesn't know what he's talking about, and he doesn't even know how to edit properly. The video's only a minute and a half long, but every commentary I've seen of it are at least three or four times that length, and personally, I don't blame them for making them that long, because this video really brings up a lot of stuff to talk about! Just goes to show you what happens when kids try to be adults.
That's all I gotta say on the matter. Hope you all enjoyed this commentary. I welcome all discussion.

So, This "Ricky" was asked "Everyone's been hating me? What do I do?" And his answer is to CURSE at them!? Yeah! That's going to make people like you more!
Why would one ask Advice from a Ten Year Old, instead of one who shows they can do something?
Why must he mumble all the time? I can barely understand a word he's saying.
What is a Youtube Partner, anyway?

What is a Youtube Partner, anyway? You got me, bab. I honestly don't know and never knew what the advantages were to being a YouTube Partner, and honestly, I don't really care in the least. Why don't you try making some commentaries, bab?

Ah, Apparently Partners are people who get Paid for their Youtube Videos. Although, how this Kid expected to get Partnered with Quality that even I could do better than at that age and give poor answers to problems, not sure how he expected himself to take off.
I might try it. What types of videos do people commentate?

From what I've heard, you have to have a certain number of subcribers/videos or something, and your videos need to have a certain number of views in order to be a partner. One thing I know for sure is that people cannot become partners if their channel has any copyright strikes. Commentaries should be done on videos that you see flaws with wether it be what they're saying, how they're saying something, if they're doing something idiotic, you name it. I good place to start would be like one of the Sonic Recolor artists. Take a look at some of the videos that youngbloodfantasy91 has done commentaries on just to get a good idea on what types of videos would be in need of a commentary.

Currently working on a 2nd-degree commentary at the moment. Hoping to finish it today.

Post by Belchic on Dec 20, 2012 13:14:09 GMT -5
Hey, everyone. It's time for another commentary. You know, this may come as a shocker to you, but one YouTube user that I like a lot is a user by the name of Benthelooney. Now, this guy has a lot of fans, but there are also a lot of people who make commentaries on his videos. For this video, I am going to attempt to make a 2nd-degree commentary on on of Ben's videos. This commentary was made by a user named SchwartzMudkip, who did a commentary on Ben's Top 10 Animated Women list. Now, before you guys say anything, I am not a fanboy who is trying to defend Benthelooney! I am doing this commentary because I found some flaws in the commentary itself, much like I did with Daniel Laux's GyroHedgie453 commentary. But anyway, I should get this done before I lose my sanity, because this is going to be a long commentary...because it's a 25-minute video!
One more thing I should point out is that I was at first reluctant to post this commentary because I thought it might be a bit risqué due to the comments made in it, but I ran it by babclayman, and he told me he thought it was okay.
So let's begin...
0:15 - I'll bet that picture of Rainbow Dash that you're showing right now pretty much sums up the whole thing.
0:19 - Last time I checked, he goes by Benthelooney.
0:26 - Many people have said the same thing about Guptail89.
0:50 - Something tells me you made this whole thing up as you went along. This is why scripts help.
1:22 - I think what he meant was when he was younger, he considered girls icky.
1:46 - I kind of agree with you there. I'd pick the Powerpuff Girls over that show anyday.
2:14 - Did you just call Ben a douchebag? Well, I will admit that face that he makes all the time is kind of creepy, but he's just trying to be funny. Even if he does fail at it sometimes.
2:42 - That's kinda deep, Schwartz!
2:49 - Mmmmmmmmm...No comment.
3:15 - Is it just me, or did Schwartz just change her character icon?
3:58 - I don't think I need to wait because I know exactly why you said that...IT'S BECAUSE YOU'RE A FURRY! AM I RIGHT?
4:32 - Robots don't age, dumbass!
4:37 - Oh my God! Ben wants to do a robot! SOMEBODY CALL SECURITY!!! (That was a sarcasm, by the way.)
4:58 - Nothing on Nickelodeon is good anymore, you Danny Phantom fangirl! Ever since 2001, Nickelodeon has been nothing but sh*t!
5:07 - What the **** is this??? Now I'm looking at a random drawing? Choose one character for your identity when you do commentaries, because otherwise, it gets confusing!
5:46 - Okay, this is some pointless rambling, so I'm gonna do like youngbloodfantasy91 and...SKIP IT, SKIP IT!
*skips to 6:09*
6:28 - a**hole alert!
6:51 - If Jenny wasn't a robot and she really was underage, then yes, it would, but she's just a robot! Get over it! Also, will you stop switching your character icon to different characters? Why don't you just stick to one?
7:55 - Schwartz, that was not necessary for you to say that.
8:22 - Oh, boy. Here we go again!
8:51 - If you think Ben's a pedophile, then like I said, Guptail89 is even worse, or heck, if you want to go even more extreme, check out SilverTehHedgie!
9:29 - Well, at least I know you're an art expert.
9:45 - *facepalms as the "Price is Right" fail music plays*
10:00 - For God's sake, STICK TO ONE CHARACTER PLEASE!!!
10:12 - *facepalm* Now you're using characters from other shows??? Good God! Your commentaries are more confusing to follow than "2001: A Space Odyessy"!
10:33 - And why are they fans of it? Elaborate, please!
11:01 - Yeah, but that doesn't make him a pervert. It's not wrong for guys to like Pink. I mean, I have a male cousin who likes pink, but that doesn't make him gay or a pervert or anything.
11:07 - What?...HEY!!!!!!!!!! HOW DARE YOU INSULT MY FAVORITE PONY! Or heck, I'M OFFENDED BY THAT COMMENT!
11:34 - Not gonna repeat myself.
11:55 - Then why don't shows like "101 Dalmatians: The Series" get that kind of treatment?
12:52 - And again, I don't see anything wrong with that. It's just who he is.
12:58 - It's just a quirk of his. Don't you ever respect people's opinions?
13:28 - For once, I acutally agree with you. Yes, that little bit WAS extremely creepy!
13:38 - Alright, next Schwartz is going to go off-topic where she rambles about Ben's DeviantArt account, so I'm just gonna...SKIP IT, SKIP IT!
*skips to 14:14*
15:12 - What...the...****?
15:47 - And THIS proves that you know NOTHING about pedophilia! So Ben has a crush on Misty, and that automatically makes him a pedophile? Okay, I know she's 12 years old, but she's a fictional character! And for the last time, stick to just one character for your commentaries. It's like one minute, you're Rainbow Dash, next minute, you're Luna, then you're Pinkie Pie, then you're Fluttershy, then you're Mordecai from "Regular Show", and you keep bouncing all over the place between characters! This is really giving me a headache, so stop it!
16:08 - Even she ADMITS that she doesn't know what pedophilia is! My God! I feel like I just picked on a retard just now!
17:11 - Well, since you put it that way...*cha-chick*...
17:34 - *facepalms as the "Wah-wah-wah-wah" tune plays* FAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
18:01 - Well, now I've learned something else about Schwartz, and that's the fact that she doesn't know the meaning of the word "satire", because that's what Ben was just giving us right now!
18:45 - Well, they're not animals, but hey, I can deal with a loophole now and then. But in all seriousness, I think the reason Ben said no animals on this list was because he didn't want to get a lot of hate mail from furries or give anyone any type of suspicion that he is a furry. You know, because he doesn't want to put up with that sh*t.
19:30 - Once again, you're using a totally different character. Are you a schitso or something? Also, about that last statement you made, that's another thing I have to agree with you on, being that I'm a man in my late 20's, and I love Disney movies.
19:50 - *sigh...* Here we go again...*facepalms as the "Price is Right" fail music plays.*
19:58 - Well, that clip you just showed pretty much sums up more than words how I feel about YOUR commentary, Schwartz!
20:21 - This is like the third, maybe fourth time you said that Ben masturbates! How do you know he does that? Are you some kind of perverted stalker who watches Ben in the privacy of his own home? OH MY GOD! Then that would make you a ****ing hypocrite, considering that you've been accusing Ben of all that!
20:30 - And here, she's going to show a fast-forwarded version of the rest of the video, so I'm just going to once again...SKIP IT, SKIP IT!
*skips to 21:16*
21:27 - I think the more ultimate question is: What is the matter with YOU?
21:44 - How old are you exactly, Schwartz? Are you even old enough to have a childhood yet?
21:57 - And I'm going to end the video right here because Schwartz just goes off with more random rambling saying, "Ben is creepy, I hate him!" and all that sh*t, and it just gets boring from there on in.
Final verdict: Schwartz is not a good commentator. She's a hypocrite, she doesn't know what the definition of certain words are, she has trouble picking a consistent identity, and she repeats herself too much. If she thinks BentheLooney is creepy, then she doesn't know the half of the Internet! Believe me, I've seen a lot worse people.
Anyway, that's the end of my commentary. Sorry if my comments seemed a bit inappropriate, but it's all just satirical. I'll see you all on the brighter later.

I'd like to give this topic a try. It's been a while since the last post here, but after seeing some commentaries on YouTube lately, I decided to do one here on this topic. This video that I'm about to do a commentary on is a mirrored video; the original video was made by a kid named Dragonshadow3, who did a "rant" on a movie called Toy Story. And I put "rant" in quotes, because it doesn't sound much like one, and you'll see what I mean when you watch the video below. And I did the best I can on this commentary, and I'm not sure if I'll do another one like this. It's now time for me to stop talking about it and let you guys watch the video and read what I have to say.
0:08 - Okay, just eight seconds into this "rant", and I'm seeing some problems with it already. Problem #1: You're doing a lot of swearing at a young age. How old were you at the time you did this video, and where were your parents that time? Because if they were in the same room with you and they heard you use that kind of language, they would be so mad with you that they would stop you from doing more of this video and punish you for it. Problem #2: It's kind of dark in that room where you were doing this video, don't you think? I mean, I can see your face, but not too well. Problem #3: Your TV is on. Why did you have your TV on while you did this video? What am I supposed to listen to, exactly? Your TV or your "rant" on Toy Story? And problem #4: There's a jump cut in the middle of your mention of the title of the movie. Seriously, it sounds as if you're saying that the movie you're gonna talk about is Tuh. I mean, what's up with that? Okay, kid, let's hear exactly what you had to say about Toy Story, or Tuh, whichever you prefer.
0:14 - If you could give a good explanation as to why this movie is sh*tty, then I would take you seriously.
0:18 - If you don't have anything to say about it, then why are you even doing this video in which you're doing a rant on it?
0:23 - Why did you stutter there? You could've written down what you were going to mention in your rant.
0:30 - Seriously, kid, no one at that age, whatever it was, should be saying things like that. And was the movie really that bad to you? Please, explain why you think it's so sh*tty and messed up.
0:34 - What is so stupid? The movie or that statement you said about stabbing your eyes out with butter knives? Because if it's that statement, then yes, that is stupid. But if it's the movie, well, I can't make any judgments until I hear your explanation about it.
0:45 - First of all, the cowboy in the movie has a name. It's Woody. If you've taken enough time to watch the movie, you'll hear his name enough times to remember it. Second, how is Woody an ass? Are you referring to the part of the movie where Woody plotted to have Buzz Lightyear fall into a gap between Andy's desk and wall, only to end up having Buzz knocked out the window of Andy's bedroom? Okay, I'll admit that when Woody became jealous of Buzz after Andy received the latter toy on the day he had his birthday party and made him his new favorite toy, he was a jerk to him on that part of the movie for coming up with a plot to get him out of everyone's sight in that room, no matter what the outcome of the plot was. Was that what you were going for? I'd like to hear you explain why you think Woody is such an ass.
0:56 - Okay, so you didn't bother to explain why you think Woody was such an ass, but you bothered to complain that there are three Toy Story movies, all of which I found good, as do most other people. I mean, everyone has their own opinions on the Toy Story movies, especially the first one, which is the subject of this "rant" of yours, but you're not giving much of an explanation as to why you think this movie is stupid.
1:07 - Really? You're saying that you are sh*t? I wouldn't say that. The only thing that's sh*t here is this video of yours.
1:09 - There we go! We've got some light. So, now, I get to see your face well enough. However, it really does look like you weren't old enough to make videos to upload on the Internet.
1:22 - Um, were you trying to come up with a joke? Because if you were, then you should've had it prepared before you did this video.
1:34 - Kid, this is the third time you mentioned yourself in that manner in this video. Listen, having no needed information prepared, using too many swear words, and trailing off and saying "...me...uhh..." while trying to give your viewers a joke is not the way to make a video in which you rant about something.
1:48 - What? Since when did this video become all about making fart noises? Can you please go back to your rant on Toy Story?
2:15 - If that was a real fart, then I would find that gross. But that wasn't real, because as far as I know, nobody actually farts like that. Besides, I can hear typing and clicking in that video, so you just used a computer to make fart noises to make your viewers believe that you were actually farting. And after those fart noises, you turned the light off. So, you had the light on just so you could use a computer to make fart noises? That was unnecessary, for it doesn't even help explain why you think Toy Story is a stupid movie. You might as well just leave the light off and not try coming up with a joke.
2:27 - And that's it? The video ends just like that? Well, I was hoping you would get into full detail on why you don't like Toy Story. Okay, I have these things to say. Just like everyone else who have seen this video, I think this video is a bad one. This kid did a lot of swearing, he said nothing about the movie except that it has talking toys, that there is a cowboy whom he never referred to by name and whom he thinks is an ass, and that there are three of these movies, he took a long pause trying to come up with a joke and ended up saying "uhh...me...", and he used a computer just to add fart noises to the video. He deleted the video from his YouTube account, but several other people mirrored the video, and just about everyone who mirrored it did commentaries on it. Now, this video was done years ago. Hopefully, by this time, this kid has learned a lot after making this video, now that he's older. Let this be a lesson to little kids who want to make videos and upload them on the Internet: wait until you're old enough to do so; by then, you might know enough to make decent videos, especially those that involve ranting on movies. In the US, you have to be at least 13 years old to join YouTube, and this one kid who did this video didn't look like he's at least 13 years old when he did this. And that's all I have to say here.

I'm here with another commentary. It's about an immature, idiotic, moronic manchild known as AKnotholeResident, who, back in 2010, watched a trailer for a video game in the Sonic The Hedgehog franchise called Sonic The Hedgehog 4: Episode I. At first, he was so excited about it, but while watching the trailer for that game, he saw something in it that made him do a rant after the trailer finished. Now, this commentary may end up coming out as amateurish, but this was the best I can do, so bear with me. Let's get on with it and hear exactly what he has to rant about.
0:02 - Two seconds in, and we see him in the dark, holding a Sonic plushie. Not that I'm complaining about a grown man owning a plushie, but I find it childish that a grown man would be holding a plushie, especially the way this guy does.
0:34 - Why are you talking to that plushie? It's not like it's going to come to life and respond to whatever you say to it. Besides, talking to a plushie is something that only a little kid would do.
0:58 - That's not really what I would get excited about. Yeah, a Moto Bug. So what?
1:04 - And we're now seeing a change of facial expression. It's obviously because you just saw something in that trailer you don't like, and you're going to complain about it afterwards.
1:40 - "Let the adults speak"? Okay, you may be an adult in terms of age, but after what you did on the Internet, you have no right being referred to as an adult. You are known to have shown yourself on the Internet looking and acting like a baby, with diapers and everything! And in this video, you've talked to the Sonic plushie as if it were alive, and you're now doing it again.
1:46 - You may stop talking to the plushie, now. And exactly what stress could an inanimate object like that plushie have?
2:02 - Go ahead, then. Talk to Sega if you must, but I have to warn you that whatever you have to say, Sega is not going to listen to you.
2:06 - Sega actually does understand retro. If there's anyone who doesn't understand retro, it's you.
2:20 - This game actually was intended to emulate the original Sonic The Hedgehog titles on the Sega Genesis. Also, this game was made for the seventh generation consoles, like the PS3 and the Xbox 360, for example, so Sega had to add something new to it and not make it look exactly like the same thing you'd play on an older video game console that was made many years ago.
2:28 - Well, in case you didn't notice, especially while growing up as a fan of the Sonic The Hedgehog franchise, this franchise is made for kids, no matter what generation. I'm not saying you shouldn't be a fan of the franchise because you're not a kid yourself anymore, but the franchise will always be geared toward kids, because kids are the target audience for this franchise.
2:46 - I cannot believe you are upset over Sonic's change in design. Also, as a fan of the franchise, you should know that back in 1991 when Dr. Ivo Robotnik made his debut in the original Japanese version of Sonic The Hedgehog, the video game made for the Sega Genesis back then, his name was Dr. Eggman.
3:12 - And you had a lot of nerve to make such a stupid comment like that to Sega. Now, they're definitely not going to listen to you.
3:27 - Seriously, you are making a big deal out of a minor detail that nobody should really care about! Yeah, Sonic's eyes are green instead of black. Big deal! Video game characters get updated, especially Sonic. Things in video games don't always stay the same. The reason for making updates in the designs of video games is to appeal to a new generation of gamers. And like I said, Sonic The Hedgehog is a franchise that is, and always will be, geared toward KIDS!
3:49 - Will you stop b*tching about the color of Sonic's eyes?! So what if he has green eyes?! And so what if he is taller?! The changes in his design are minor, and a video game character's design has nothing to do with the gameplay anyway!
4:16 - Actually, the real question is: Is it so hard for YOU to understand that in a video game, the gameplay is a whole lot more important than a character design? Again, you need to stop your d*mn whining over something f*ckin' minor like the color of Sonic's eyes!
4:28 - Well, it's good to know that you had no complaints at all about the level design and gameplay, because like I just said, the gameplay is a lot more important than the design on a character. And how could you say that the feeling of nostalgia is completely lost? I believe most old-school gamers felt nostalgia when they played this game themselves because of the classic gameplay that is featured in it, and I don't think any of them complained about Sonic's design, either.
4:41 - I will not comment on Mega Man 9, but I will say that not all the games in the Mega Man series are 8-bit. Take Mega Man 8, for example; that game was made for consoles that are 32-bit. So, there's no need to say that the Mega Man series is consistent, because it's not.
4:53 - This is NOT a Sonic Rush game! This is Sonic The Hedgehog 4: Episode I! What are you talking about here?
5:17 - Yeah, I know what's so sad and depressing. It's the fact that you are throwing a b*tch fit over nothing!
5:43 - Yes, that's exactly what Sega has given you and other Sonic fans, and you should really appreciate it. You should appreciate the fact that the classic gameplay is featured in the game. I mean, that should count for something, right? But no! The one thing you think is the most important in this game is the design on Sonic! You are so ungrateful.
5:47 - No, moron. You are pathetic.
5:56 - I don't know if you meant that or not, but I have a feeling that after you did this video and the game was released, you bought the game anyway. I'm not saying it's true; I'm just saying what I feel.
6:14 - You idiot! For the last time, the Sonic franchise is geared toward kids! This game is made for kids! Old-school fans of the franchise can like this game if they want, but it still doesn't change the fact that kids are the target audience! It wouldn't be fair if Sega focuses on making new Sonic video games that appeal to old-school fans only! God, man, not only are you ungrateful, but you are also selfish!
6:42 - No, no, no. It's YOU who fail at understanding what retro really means. The classic gameplay is there, and that's what makes the game retro. And if you want to leave the franchise, then get rid of everything you have that's related to the franchise, but I have a feeling that you wouldn't. I have a feeling that you would return to the franchise just days, weeks, or months after you made the decision to leave it.
7:01 - That's just a plushie. It's not going to come to life and feel any emotion. Now, I know you should never be referred to as an adult. In just about everything you did on the Internet, you have proven to the world how immature you are. You, mister, are a big baby, in more ways than one! Seriously.
7:09 - Sega only let you down, and it's all because of some stupid, little, petty, minor detail. Let it go through your head that Sega did not exist to make games the way only you want them.
7:14 - Good riddance! It's amazing how f*cked up the Sonic franchise is. It's f*cked up because of how stupid some of the fans are. Some fans like this one are so stupid that they don't deserve to be called "fans". Yeah, I've been using the wrong word to describe this guy all along. He's a fanboy! There are lots of fanboys and fangirls of this franchise, and as some other people who actually know better than they do say, they make the true fans of the franchise look bad. And I thought the only nitpicking there ever was in the franchise is about the voice actors, and that was bad enough. But there had to be nitpicking about the change in Sonic's design, which is so minor that some people don't even bother to give a sh*t. It's just eye color and height. Sonic still looks like Sonic, even with those changes. Now, if Sonic's design changed to a pink kitten in the shape of a cube with a white front and mouth area with a large, purple nose that can sneeze out fireballs, and wears a long pair of lime green fingerless gloves and a pair of yellow high heels that makes the sound of a duck quacking everytime a step with them on is taken, then that would really be something worth complaining about. Because that wouldn't look like Sonic at all, now, would it? Imagine Sonic looking like that. I mean, focusing on minor changes in a design on a video game character is like watching an episode of Nostalgia Critic and focusing on the color of the wall instead of the Nostalgia Critic sitting in front of it. And to tell you the truth, I wanted to like the Sonic franchise. As a kid, I didn't grow up with the franchise, but I have seen and heard of some things about it back then, and it made me think that it looked and sounded cool. I really did want to like the franchise, but after what I saw from its fanboys and fangirls, especially from this one manchild, I've decided to change my thoughts about it. The further away I stay from the franchise, the better off I will be. So, I'm going to end this by giving out a message to any fantards of the Sonic franchise who may be seeing this, right now: A small change in a character design is not going to break a video game, and if you guys do not like what I said here, too bad!

Even though this is a topic where we do our own commentaries instead of posting videos of other people on the Internet doing commentaries, I couldn't help but post this commentary done by some guy who goes by the name Blaze The Movie Fan, whose commentary in this video is about the Angry Video Game Nerd's video about Silver Surfer. After finding this commentary, I decided to show it here, since two other episodes in the AVGN series were commentated on here.
I'm not doing a commentary of a commentary. I just thought I'd share this with you and hear what your thoughts are on what Blaze had to say about that Silver Surfer video.

I might actually do a 2nd degree commentary on that video. I could think of a lot of things to say about it.

Hey, guys! I know it's been a long time since I did my last commentary, but here's a new one from me, and hopefully no one will trash me this time! But that's another story. Anyway, Flowgli shared this commentary on an AVGN episode made by Blaze The Movie Fan. I decided to do a 2nd Degree commentary on this video, because I found several problems with it. So let's dive right in: 0:01 - WHOA! Whoa! Whoa...No need to scream! 0:09 - Okay, I couldn't understand half of the things he said. This guy needs to slow down and learn to annunciate. 0:27 - Are you a friend of his? 0:51 - Is your computer keyboard where your audience is? Okay, I understand it's hard to do webcam videos and perfect your eye contact while you're looking at a script. 0:58 - Obviously, this is the version taken from James' YouTube channel. 1:43 - Too bad I can't say the same thing about your commentary considering how loud you are compared to the Nerd video making me have to adjust my volume every time we cut back and forth. 1:51 - Yet you failed to mention he was referencing Mega Man 2. 2:07 - Good question, and actually a valid point. 2:20 - They've gotten better over the years. 2:34 - Isn't the point of doing a commentary to point the flaws in the video other than praise it all the time? 2:52 - Tony Hawk doesn't, and he even has a goofy stance. 3:20 - Looks like Blaze just took a level in Manchild. 3:27 - .....What? 4:10 - Maybe James should have asked you to do this review with him. 4:30 - That case goes for pretty much everyone who's seen this video. I heard a lot of people were encouraged to download it onto an emulator after watching this video. 4:58 - Dude...Shut up! 5:32 - Look who's talking. 5:50 - You think he hasn't played this game before? 6:08 - I'm starting to wonder what country this guy is from. I mean, I'm not making fun of his ethnicity, but his accent really puzzles me. 6:54 - Dude, did you just fart? 7:10 - Repetition at its finest, ladies and gentlemen. 7:36 - You'll be crying once I'm finished with you. Okay, honestly, I'm not going to stalk someone I have no business with like SOME PEOPLE!!! 7:48 - Jumping to conclusions again? Also, I swear he farted again! 8:02 - Maybe if you would listen instead of interrupting him all the time, you would know. That's one of my biggest pet peeves: people who don't listen. 8:10 - Worse than bad? Does that mean a higher level than bad, or a less acceptable answer than bad? 8:17 - James already said it. No need to remind us. 8:26 - *facepalms as the Price is Right fail horn plays* 8:54 - I dare you to play Tiny Toon Adventures on the NES. 9:41 - Are you questioning the Nerd? 9:54 - That could be said about a lot of games actually. Dare I bring up "Twilight vs. Walking"? 10:04 - Trying to kill you? 10:46 - You want to know something? Every time I watch that scene, I keep thinking James was actually doing that on purpose. 11:16 - You do know he was referencing Master Chu and the Drunken Haru, right? 11:57 - Not really. 12:21 - I don't think this guy is even trying to be funny. 13:05 - Well, that's a fact for the Ninja Gaiden Trilogy. 13:28 - *groans* 14:42 - Oh, you fanboys are all alike! You do nothing but yell "Rip-off! Rip-off!" all the time. 14:49 - *facepalms* I'm just gonna join the party here. 15:35 - I guess what you're saying in a nutshell is... You are dead, dead, dead! You are dead, dead, dead!15:48 - *plays clip from "A Charlie Brown Christmas"* Charlie Brown: Don't you know a sarcasm when you hear it? 16:05 - I know exactly what he's talking about. 16:26 - *plays clip from the MLPFIM Episode: "Lesson Zero"* Spike: Uh...hmm...eh...I got nothing. 16:49 - Does he die from touching a wall? 17:02 - Sounds like someone I know... 17:50 - He was frustrated, so he didn't feel like developing a good way to destroy it like how he took a sh*t on Nightmare on Elm Street. 18:05 - But did he make any flaws? The whole point of doing a commentary is to point out flaws in a video, not to agree with it. 18:15 - Two-Telly? What's Two-Telly? Is that the love child that Telly Monster and Two-Tone the Dalmatian would have? 18:28 - Well, what you're getting from me is not your heart's desire. And yes, I know a lot of the stuff I said in this commentary came off sounding mean-spirited, but what else am I going to say? 18:31 - I'll certainly have a wonderful great day after I wrap this up. Final Verdict: Blaze, you have a lot of things to work on. First of all, you don't need to shout all the time. People should not have to keep adjusting their volume controls when watching a single video. Second of all, you need to slow down when you talk. Your accent makes it difficult to understand you. And finally, if you're going to do a commentary on someone else's video, it should be a video that you have problems with, not a video that you agree with. That way, people will find your commentary more funny and entertaining. Stuff like this would feel boring and pointless. That's all I gotta say about this. G'night, everybody.
