I am not sure if this will be good. I like James Rolfe a lot, but i cant see where he is going with this.

I really like his production and filming style, and think it's awesome it when he goes in to historian mode for his videos. The swearing angry character I understand, but I feel he pushes that angle too had a lot.
When he starts spraying fake gravy shit on things it kills it for me. If he did straight up game history / casual non shit spraying reviews I'd say he was my favorite youtuber to "make it". (I like Zero Punctuation a little bit more, I think it's the slew of rapid fire big words that speaks to my inner ranter)
All that being said I'll watch this, seems like he's hit a dull patch, is this the last huzzah of AVGN so James can focus on other Cinnemassacre stuff?

James Rolfe seems like a pretty cool guy, but I basically agree with Blackout. I think his angry gross-out schtick got old a long time ago. I honestly didn't even realise he was still that popular.

He's actually pretty entertaining if you stop watching when he starts dropping F bombs and dumping brown gravy mix on donor carts. Problem is he switches back and forth from casual review to doo doo shenanigans really rapidly in some videos.
If he did straight up historian style stuff (like what that kid the game historian does) I'd even buy some stuff from him, I like that angle that much.

I am an avid AVGN supporter, and I think all but a few of his videos are absolutely great. I look forward to seeing this movie.

This movie looks cool. I'm buying it the day it's released.
I read somewhere on his website that this movie is supposed to be a B movie.

I really like AVGN so I'll be buying it. I sure hope the effort he's put into it these past couple of years will be worth it.
