It seems that the site's very own Angry Jake is leaving the team for undisclosed reasons.
Any speculation why someone so heavily featured on the site would suddenly be completely taken off?
The only thing I can think of in his final midnight screening review (cinderella) he actually no showed the actual movie as he lost his car keys and went on a total rampage in his apartment looking for it and then cussed out his friends via text and voicemails as he was sure he must have left his keys at one of their places and was super pissed off that they weren't answering their phones. A rage that got so bad (in his own words here) that his own landlord had to talk to him about his outburst and that he lives in a heavily black apartment complex and he has a bad reputation there and is looked at as this psycho white guy.
Perhaps he got him self in some legal trouble due to his anger and got locked up and this is Brad's way of explaining his absence?
Anyway, good luck to the guy in whatever he ends up doing and gets his attitude under control and someday returns to the Snob family as he was one of my favorite guys on there.

Aw man that sucks. I haven't kept up with Midnight Screenings lately, but I was going to start on them again soon.

Jake recently has been over exposed and "off" recently on the site.

Does this remind anyone else of when Brad kicked Jerrid off the site?

He was easily my favourite person on that site so whatever the reason may be hopefully it is dealt in the best manner and hopefully he will be back.

I hope he comes back. His angry rants really make things work.
I don't think it has to do with losing his keys, since it's odd that the whole issue would up there in one of the videos for everyone to see. Especially since they are being so hush about it.

welp, there goes my only reason to care about Team Snob...
I like the Snob himself, but Jake is REALLY the only thing that kept me coming back from time-to-time. The rest of the people were just... there...

Wait, him being angry isn't an act? Considering his acting "skills" I assumed so.

Mr. Sun isn't happy.
Still though, unless we ever learn the full reason behind this, we just have to accept and move on.

That sucks, I always enjoyed seeing him in the Midnight Screenings as whether he liked the movie or not, he was always very vocal about it. I also wonder how The Reviewers is going to work from now on.
Also, I suggest we DON'T speculate about what happened. Seriously, has doing that ever lead to anything but unhinged stupidity? I just can't stand when people go in conspiracy theorist mode and desperately try to manufacture drama where there is none. Just accept the fact that:
1. You know nothing about it and never will unless they decide to reveal it themselves.
2. It's none of your business, so stop trying to uncover the private lives of complete strangers. It's creepy.
Either way, Brad doesn't seem too broken up about it if his latest tweets are any indication so I assume it's nothing that can't be fixed, which will hopefully happen sooner rather than later.

While I'm disappointed to hear Jake's gone this thread has made me aware that there's going to be an 80's Dan movie, which I am very on board for.

Mr Sun finally pushed him too far. Goddamn you, Mr. Sun!
But in all seriousness, whatever the reason, I hope that whatever this whole thing was about, I hope it blows over soon.

Eh, I'd just assume it's his job. They change his schedule or something, and suddenly he will have a hard time doing snob stuff.

I doubt they would cut him out of a movie if it were solely due to the job. I'm admittedly not big on most "Internet reviewers" or whatever you want to call them. Cinema Snob and Cinemassacre are the only two sites I find tolerable. Having said all of that, I would imagine this dude made an ass out of himself or got physical with one of the others on the site.

Possible. Or something else unrelated to the site. I don't care to speculate. I'll miss his presence, certainly. But I assume there is some good reason for it, though Jake doesn't really have a social media presence. Sooooo... I dunno.

I heard he broke a priceless Ming vase that the group had gone together to buy off eBay because someone took the second to last donut (the last donut was a coffee donut and he said those don't count). Also, he said Lloyd looked like a female cat.

I'm a little sad that Jake is gone, but there towards the end he was starting to piss me off with a lot of stuff he was saying. A lot of times I found myself wanting to knock the shit out of him.
