Video: Let's do real magic

You know when you think editing a video is going to take several days, but there's a flaw with some of the footage and you want to know right that second whether the whole video is ruined, so you obsessively edit the video until the whole thing is done

Video preview

Surprise! A video preview for another of those had-the-idea-and-executed-it-impulsively-without-thinking-about-it videos.

This one might take a hot minute to edit because it's quite a LOT of footage, a lot of spells, and probably a lot will not be that funny and will get cut for time. Some of the stuff in this preview might get cut too, I'll see. Maybe I'll just embrace a long runtime. I was even questioning to myself cutting the whole video concept because it didn't feel after I filmed it lik...

Ramble video topic voting

Hey everyone, please comment below to cast your vote for the ramble video topic. (This list includes a lot of parentheticals to try to clarify what the suggester meant.)

A Critical Brony Analysis of My Little Pony: The Movie

New video is live! I usually don't pose separately for thumbnails so please appreciate that I did a brief Angry Brony Photoshoot for this one

Video preview: my little pony the movie

I inadvertently lied to you guys AGAIN about the topic of my next video! I feel like this is a joke that is mostly funny only to me but oh well.

I'm on a fine line where it was unclear to me when the press embargo lifted so I didn't want to accidentally violate that but I realized I should really use my advantage of seeing it early (not once but twice) and have my video ready to go before "everybrony" has a chance to see it and respond with their own vids. The "midnight" screenings are startin...

We Got This Together

Anyway I promised so let me follow up that thinkpiece with this embarrassing video of me doing muh pony voices

Not to toot my own horse but Pinkie Pie's still my weakest impression but is now the strongest it's ever been

Addendum

A lot of people responded to my ramble video, re: doing more niche content like horror movies or disney parks, saying to just talk about what I like or to put those in playlists. I would do that except:

My hesitance with subseries on my main channel is based on the sub box algorithm. This is the same reason I worry about staying (relatively) topical. Youtube's programming is intentionally mysterious but the general finding is that if you make a lot of videos that your subscribers don't click o...

Ramble: Rejected Video Ideas

Here is the newest ramble video! Please do comment if there are any ideas, from either of the documents I go over, that sound intriguing to you

The Worst Book Ever

New video is finished! And it's very sexy

Video preview

Something a bit different for this video! This one will probably be a couple days before the final version is posted. I estimate that it will be about twice this length.

Porgventure (or: why I'm not a vlogger)

Hey guys! I'm posting this to all levels of patrons because it's kind of half-preview, but half-alternate cut that's not going to go on the main channel. I ended up paring down the end result beyond what's seen here and I think I'm going to post it. It's not really my usual content but I thought it was a fun outing worth sharing.

In the event of posting I was planning on leaving patron credits off this one because A) it's not really a real video and B) I didn't want to give the incorr...

Things you need to know about Pennywise

New video about It!

I like how the videos I end up putting out are never the ones I think I'm going to do next.

Force Friday Toy Review

How many times have I underestimated how fast I can edit things

Here's the finished Force Friday video! Good that I was able to actually get it out... you know... before Force Friday.

Force Friday preview

This isn't the video I told you guys I was planning next, but the idea came to me and I couldn't get over it. This will probably be posted tomorrow afternoon.

I think this is just me venting my jealousy of people that do actually do toy review channels

Ramble - Hobbies

I explain in this video - since it's late (very my bad), I'm going to also just shoot a ramble for the second-place topic of Conventions and upload that one as its own ramble too.

In the meantime, I'm going to start the new round of voting on topics. So the suggestions message is going out now, and 5 and up patrons will see a new voting thread in a couple days, after the suggestions have had time to come in.

I went to try and find a web archive of the pony site that inspired my co...

But what if Peter hadn't been Spiderman

New video is live! Little baby video. Weird video.

But what if Peter hadn't been Spiderman

Does it count as a preview if it's like an hour early?

Just shot and edited this last night, this wasn't the video I was planning on making but I got a weird idea for a video while I was out, and it was set in a car anyway so of course the reasonable thing to do was find a quiet corner of a bright parking lot and just shoot it right then.

I'm waffling between a misleading thumbnail (well, it's from after the credits) and picking one of the other options which would be look like a dark bl...

Why Does Creepypasta Suck

New video! I thought it would be at least another day of editing but i pulled an all-nighter instead, whoops. Now that's what I call /r/nosleep!

Video preview

Not a movie this time, but just a subject that's personally really interesting to me. Hopefully nobody minds the divergence. I think it's funny.

Spiderman Homecoming is basically Hey Arnold

I forgot to post this here last night! New video.

Ramble: Wonder Woman

Here's our Wonder Woman ramble! This is probably the only vid I'll make on Wonder Woman, so. ~Exclusivity.~

As June is now drawing to a close, I'll be collecting the topics for our next ramble!

Upon rewatching this I felt my energy was quite low at the start... it improves

The Cursed Half-Life of the Pirates Franchise

Ahoy! New main channel video me mateys.  But perhaps ye knows too much. Ye've seen the cursed treasure... ye know where it be hidden...

Ramble video: Comment-related grievances

I forgot to say, topics I'll probably do nextish:

- Wonder Woman? Ehhh I'm not sure if I'll even see it, it might be unremarkably bad

- Cars Trilogy (I am not kidding) if I'm right about what the movie is going to be like

- The weird Thor video

- I have another disneyland idea that's a bit different which I thought would be funny but I can't do two in a row

- What blockbuster movies would you even want videos about? Wonder Woman? Alien Covenant? The new Pirates? I'll li...

Happy May the 4th!

I prioritized getting another main channel done for the 4th rather than shoot the ramble video after work last night; hope y'all are in favor of this decision.

Ramble video is inbound though (it looks like Grievances has won)
