The angry video game nerd is a character that kinda lives in the past. He likes mainly 80’s and 90’s pop culture. He reviews a lot of old and notoriously bad video games. James who plays the AVGN also likes old movies and reviews a lot of them.
I guess the interesting part is that he said he’'s not gonna review the 2016 ghostbuster movie and didn’t get any baclash for being a chauvinistic patriarch or something.
There was a recent example where a journalist reviewed turning red and said it wasn’t for him and gave it a bad score and people went berserk and called him racist and shit and he lost his job and they forced an apology out of him for not liking a movie.

Lol… he didn’t say he disliked the movie, he said the movie sucked because it was based on Asian culture and because of the female lead. He was pretty explicitly racist and misogynist in his review.
I’m not gonna say that his review was ‘racist’ at all, but saying characters that are Asian in an Asian community ‘limiting the appeal of the movie’ and ‘made for the directors immediate friends and family’ is absolutely bananas
And for a review of a movie he wasn’t interested in, why did he need to double down on his review of it

Wasn’t this the guy that gave it a bad score because it was set in 2002 and they didn’t reference the September 11th terrorist attacks?
Imagine being an adult who’s paid to give your opinion on movies, do a review of kids movie where you’re not the target audience at all and reference that it’s not for you and you lose you fucking job and are forced to apologise because some batshit crazy people on twitter got upset!
God I love stacking fruit and veg, my opinion of a kids movie not being for me won’t get me fired.
Angry Video Game Nerd. He made internet videos pre YouTube days about him playing bad retro games. I don’t know what he’s doing nowadays, but one thing for sure is that he’s not going to watch a movie.
This is a bit inaccurate. Some of his videos contained plagiarism, but they weren’t written by James and were taken down as soon as it was pointed out. The source of the plagiarism was also not other youtubers, it was written movie articles. The writer in question no longer works for him. This was all made clear in the Hbomberguy video.
old school youtuber, one of the early big names. Got famous trashing on shitty old video games, but also occasionally did movie reviews, especially Monster Madness, in October where he’d review a bunch of horror movies. This is referencing how he said he wouldn’t be reviewing the 2016 ghostbusters movie when it was announced. The media didn’t really go nuts over him not reviewing it though.

Eating and sleeping. Some urination too. Probably even pooping sometimes.
According to Hbomberguy, plagiarizing videos of other YouTubers.

No idea who he is, what movie this may be or why any journalists would care.
