Take me back to before I decided to watch Suburban Knights today You can really see the divide in attitude on these things since Phelous was at least trying to make that stupid character work in Suburbian Knights while he's blatantly sabotaging every scene he's in in To Boldly Flee and putting on the best performance in the movie in the process. them finally realizing that Doug only cared about Doug... Like the cancelled one was horror themed and they didn't ask any of the horror themed reviewers on the channel to work... or Linkara pointed out his character carries a gun he was blown off.

Yeah, Noah took that really hard even before everything came out about JewWario and then once stuff came out it really killed his mental health. Then once Change the Channel came out, he had already been out of the community for a bit and it was like walking into the burning apartment with pizzas meme but more heartbreaking. Couldn't understand why all his friends were now in some civil war. He's thankfully in a better place now and has been doing cameos in videos from the guy who starred in Phantasmagoria 2.Man, Channel Awesome just became this massive mountain of drama in the end didn't it? With side stories that seemed to branch off from the main branch of drama. Really? Huh, things really do move in a circle. youtu.be/zwYbt7zIp8I?si=sHwNoDlt3VzBbUxoYeah, the actor that played Curtis started doing videos about the game and then realized one of the reasons a lot of people even remember or know about the game was from Noah's playthrough and invited him on. Did a couple other videos of them playing the game and semi riffing on it. Pretty interesting stuff actually. Kinda helped Noah get out from under the rock he was living under and consider making videos again.

He's been streaming regularly on YouTube for a while, seems to have a much, MUCH more positive attitude than he's had for... oh god, at least a decade, he's been collaborating with people and even his social media posts seem mostly positive.

For the To Boldly Flee shoot they did a "Rejected Spooning with Spoony Ideas" sketch, and one of them is Holly firing Justin for sexual harassment. I'd link it, but the only reuploads of it I could find are Russian over dubs and one that's annotated with some edgelord insults.

Hindsight is the nightmarish gift that keeps giving isn't it? Makes me want to read through the Change the Channel document again.

Doug and the rest of management not known that he was doing it... but they did. Like I don't blame Spoony and Sage for putting the Wario hats on their shelves, or Marzgurl for making the Kamen Rider thing... but Doug and Co. f***ing knew... which is gross. Also the fact that we only know is because they were stupid about redacting his name (and then even mentioned a DIFFERENT victim in defense of him...)

I want to post the photo of Nostalgia Critic's bulge but I legitimately think it would be a TOS violation and I don't think that this board deserves to die over Doug Walker's cock.

Isn't there also a whole scene in like the third movie of them looking into Spoony's inner conscience and he's basically just in a speedo and everyone's screams? Maybe it's a movie reference to something, but knowing these films who the f*** knows lol

Because nobody wants to be a scab and deal with the scorn for the rest of their careers that would come from joining a platform run by a-holes, a-holes that didn't particularly value their smaller creators when things were going well. That, and there’s no money involved. Channel Awesome pays in ‘exposure’, and since I can’t imagine many people were going to Channel Awesome to watch after everyone left, what kind of exposure could they possibly get? This is very likely the top reason. As bad as an image that channel awesome created for itself, there is never a shortage of unscrupulous people willing to work for garbage people in order to advance themselves. But everybody needs money, even the hacks.

The other thing about To Boldly Flee is like... at least Kickassia was 90 minutes, an actual like normal movie length. Suburban Knights was 2 hours, little longer, but ok, yknow, if you're gonna watch a movie, it's a movie
To Boldly Flee is almost FOUR. HOURS.
It is damn near equal in runtime to Kickassia and Suburban Knights COMBINED and it really shows Doug's inability to cut down a film into a cohesive and flowing plot
I remember when it first came out they released it in like seven f***ing sections so people likely wouldn't go mad watching it in a row like poor Madlibs might've done lol

To boldly flee was where I dropped off. Even before then the work was going notably down hill, Suburban Knights was terrible (kickassia was bad but at least entertainingly bad) and generally moved on and didn't pay him much mind.
But my god the Dan Olsen and Lady Emily videos are beautiful. Just perfect eviserations of the man and his work.

God that f***ing JewWario rollercoaster was horrifying in real time, Heartbreak to a man taking his own life to uncovering a f***ed up dark underbelly he had created that chain reacted to essentially what Change the Channel became. Legit how is one of the most normal people to come out of this sites lineage a man named Todd in the Shadows who constantly wears a mask over his face?? Whats worse is that Doug knew and still wrote him in spots like walking in with no shirt or as David Bowie from labyrinth where the women stare at his bulge... I have not watched any of Doug Walker's videos since that information came out. I just can't. It's too gross.

In spoony's long deleted commentary on it he said something like of course this is what Spoony the character would dream about, being this ultimate male specimen... when let's face I am assuredly not.
