2017 Doctor Who Special Analysis is now up for backers!

Thanks to everyone for backing me, and I hope you had a good holiday break! 

This was meant to go up between christmas and new years but it sort of ballooned out as I decided to write more and more for it. A toy prop I bought as a joke for a future thing (taking a longer look at Moffat's run in general, a sort-of sequel to the sherlock video) ended up arriving in time to make it into this video - see if you can tell what it is!

There's no credits in this one because they would be al...

Soy Boy Diet Google Spreadsheet

This will be updated as I remember more things I ate and gather more data, via the tried and tested method of eating more things. I've marked it so people can make suggestions so hopefully you folks can tell me what sort of info I should be putting up or what I should try next. If you'd prefer a straight doc to a spreadsheet comment letting me know :D

Check it out here:

THE SOY BOY DIET

So I guess I'm really doing this, huh

I'm gonna put up and update a spreadsheet covering the diet and what I've eaten so far once I've had a nap!

If anyone knows any nutritionists they feel would be ok with being interviewed for a youtube comedy video making fun of right-wingers who think they know about health, let me know!

There might be a third video up on Wednesday/Thursday but I might end up taking more time on it. I'm trying to be better with brevity and focusing on a single ...

[EARLY RELEASE] Halcyon Dreams: The Legacy of Dragon's Lair

Hey friends!

Here's the new video, up early for patrons. It's a semi-documentary about the legacy of a famous game. Let me know your thoughts!

Just fyi, the credits are based on whoever was backing me at the time the previous video went up, so if you just joined me, you'll be in the next one!  Plz let me know if I said/wrote your name wrong/you prefer a different name in the credits as soon as possible! 

The next 2 videos are shorter and (hopefully) coming out quicker tha...

100K Q&A Outtake

The Q&A is going public today, so here's a little outtake.

I delayed putting the video out to make sure I got this scene, and then decided at the last second to take it out.

View Post

100,000 Subscriber Q&A!

Howdy folks. Putting the Q&A video up early for Patrons, because I love you.

In the video I mention a couple of future ideas, like doing a series showing off obscure games with interesting stories behind their existence, stuff with a more overtly political vibe, and doing more regular Q&A livestreams specifically for Patrons. Let me know what you think of that stuff in the comments here on Patreon so they don't get muddled with the general audience once the video goes public.

Clean Slow Motion Shot From The End Of The VHS Video

Heya,

I thought some people might want a clean version of the final slow-motion shot, so here it is.

I also put up some more footage of an alternate angle of the carnage here:

Also in case you missed it, the final version of the VHS video is finally up! Check it out here, if you haven't:

SCANLINE: The Power of VHS

Hey folks!

Like I mentioned, I've been working with Shannon Strucci on a new series of video essays exploring film stuff! Here's the first one, covering the lingering effects of the VHS format on film culture. I'd quite like for this series to be regular every month, so let me know what you think!

I get asked quite often to do more stuff covering film analysis, so I think this series will be a way of doing that while being a little more academic. Shannon and both like the idea of sharing...

Things Are Happening

Just a quick little update: The set is being built! This'll give me a more controlled environment to shoot in (and break things against), and hopefully lend some future projects a more professional feel.

Once it's fully decorated, I'll probably do future streams from here too, including the charity stream I keep talking about doing. It also means that I can have guests literally sit on a couch with me instead of over skype or whatever, I think that's kinda neat.

A video should be out for...

Livestream Tonight: Watch Me Edit My Videos!

The video you folks have seen already and had a chance to comment on is going up on the channel properly tomorrow, but the thing about putting videos up earlier for backers is you always realise what else you should have done. So I'm gonna do those things, and wring content out of the act of doing it, because why not! I'm gonna stream the editing process live on Twitch. If this goes well I'll try to do it more often.

It should start around 10:30PM UK time, but it might be a little later. When ...

Thorough Analysis of Overwatch Character I Can't Get To Play

It's currently processing, so it should be up asap.

Hey, anyone remember jokes? It was kind of nice taking a break from reading studies and doing research for the rest of the bill nye project, or playing a game series intended to be pretty depressing, to try to be funny again. I'll probably add some more bits and tweak this a bit before it goes up on the channel proper, so please give your feedback! I also, for some reason, recorded *that* section of the video in slow motion on a second camera...

Lisa Series Analysis

This one's been awhile in the making.  It's only up for backers for now :D 

I would like to make a video in a similar vein about Night In The Woods next month if people seem into it. Let me know!

EDIT: New version is up with fixed title cards and a new thumbnail, thanks so much for pointing it out!

Next up, Bill Nye Part 2! Well, actually, I'm working on a jokey video about Doomfist that might be done first?? If I can freakin get to play him lol

YouTube Plagiarism and A Little Update

New video went up a few days ago. I didn't charge you folks for it because it was kind of low effort and something I felt needed talking about before I went back to the other stuff!

I'm currently recording the first in a new backer-only thing called SKELETON ASKS, where I answer questions in a video format, just because I think that might make for interesting content. I've sourced the questions so far through Curiouscat but probably from now on I'll do it through comments or messages I get on ...

Measured Response: Bill Nye VS Pseudoscience (Part One)

 Bill Nye has gone too far this time. All the way to THE TRUTH! He'll pay for this!

This is part one, recorded before I left for VidCon but not finished editing until after I got back.

This video features a common staple of response videos: Lots of still images where I just talk for a bit. I hope my lack of tricks to distract you from my idiocy doesn't tank me

Sherlock Is Garbage, And Here's Why

It's finally up! Again!

I'm not certain if this will manage to stay up, but if it doesn't I will find a more permanent solution, IE buying the Vimeo membership that lets you keep things this big up on there, or getting verified on vid.me

Thanks again for your patience, and also for future-patience in the event that the Lefist Orwellian BBC has me disappeared and the video needs to go underground.

Sherlock is Garbage Update

Hiya.

The new video was briefly up before BBC auto-copyright claimed it for a few sections, which I've disputed,and am currently waiting on a response. Obviously it falls within fair use, but we'll have to see.

In the meantime I'm working to put up a version on an alternative host and/or edit a version that isn't automatically picked up (only about 7 sections triggered the full-blown 'automatically block this video' thing).

I am charging Patrons for it now, because if things roll o...

In Defense of Dark Souls 2

The promised day has arrived.

Another Serious Lore Analysis is up next, along with bonus videos and the rest of the Bloodborne playthrough footage.

I also passed a funding goal I entirely jokingly brought up on Twitter. I said if I passed 3,000 dollars I would put out all the greenscreen footage of me as Sonic. I passed that goal and now feel like I should probably do that just in case people actually want it! So watch out for a whole bunch of raw footage. Please do not make unflattering...
