    Hey, the majority of my posts in this thread are making fun of Two and a Half Men and some guy's bad zombie apocalypse fan fiction.

    Did I order the soup?

    Maybe the soup isn't "for" me.
    You know what's awesome?

    No matter how much you all complain, there's still gonna be a new Mega64 video up here in a few weeks.

    Will it also be shitty?

    [*]Know your audience. I was actually kinda shocked that you had a whole sketch about zombies and didn't even mention anything like pirates, robots or even friggin' ninjas! Come on, people, this is the interwebs, you guys seem nerdy enough to know what meme is big at the moment, just work with it.

    I know you said you couldn't make it through the whole video, but this is exactly why it is important to complete something before you criticize or review it.

    Yeah, you may want to watch the whole thing before discussing.

    That was the point of my post - I complained, but at least offered an (probably shittier) alternative.

    I couldn't really make it through all of the video, but if the Mega64 guys are reading this, here are some ideas you guys could work with:
    • Most importantly, add more jokes! I understand what you guys were trying to do here, but it just didn't work. You were using the same joke over and over and honestly? It became too predictable to hold my attention.
    • Know your audience. I was actually kinda shocked that you had a whole sketch about zombies and didn't even mention anything like pirates, robots or even friggin' ninjas! Come on, people, this is the interwebs, you guys seem nerdy enough to know what meme is big at the moment, just work with it.
    • This is more of an addendum to the first point, but you might want to look into the possibility of making more sketches per video. This will give you a lot of room for more jokes since there would be more than just one scenario.

    That's about it, if you want more input, just hit me up with a PM!

    I think your second point would have actually made it worse. Also, I don't think the Mega64 guys read this forum. I could be wrong though.

    And every one of them will watch it and complain again about how hard it is to be moderately entertained for five minutes at a stretch.

    Not me.
    This is my first and last post in a Mega64 thread.
    I get that some people love it, I hate it. End of story.

    The complaints aren't about how hard it is. In fact, it's quite the opposite. It's easy to be mildly entertained, or at least not bored to tears, for 5 minutes. The complaints are coming when something so consistently fails to accomplish that.

    That was actually supposed to say "how hard it is to not be..." reflecting on the difficulty faced by the consumer, not the producer. My mistake.

    I'm sorry but Will Smith's daughter's song is terrible.

    even by pop song standards it's pretty awful

    Awful's pretty harsh.


    It's okay.

    It had elements where I was like "Yeah, Okay, I see where you're going with this"


    and then some elements where I was more like "Stooooooooooooop iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit"


    Mixed together it comes out to "pretty okay".

    I fell pretty heavily on the 'stop it' side

    And I mean there are lots of pop songs I like (Britney is my secret joy), this one just really grated on me for whatever reason. Interesting video though!
