Is it an American thing where the more money you want to give the bigger the check has to be? is that why people who win 1 million dollar lotteries have huge checks? how do they redeem them? please answer

Are you being dumb or do you really want to know?
>>
>>344523427
I always thought the big checks were just symbolic, and that they either gave smaller checks or transferred the money some other way.
>>
>>344523427
They are harder to steal. Imagine some guy trying to run off with an one million dollar check.
That thing would be the size of two men.
Now imagine someone trying to steal a one billion dollar check. that would be impossible.
America only has the most advanced security measures.
>>
>>344523427
Yeah it goes up in increments of 1,000, starting at 10,000. Anything under 10,000 can be a standard check. Anything bigger and it doubles in size for for every 1,000 past that.

This is common fucking knowledge. Dipshit.

You know, I've always been impressed by how James handled being in that first era of 'internet celebrities'. He didn't let it go to his head like so many, he didn't cling onto dying and unfunny crap like the Nostalgia Critic, he hasn't just fucking snapped like Spoony, he's done what he enjoys doing and used his popularity to give some exposure to his other projects.

Also, it has to be Plumbers Don't Wear Ties. That's one for the ages.

>>
>>344523427
Back in 1933 we Americans started backing our money in gold. Some guy didn't get the memo and thought we had to literally cover the backs of money with gold. Everyone felt sorry for his so we all pretended he was right and started doing this to all forms of money. With that said you would expect the more something is worth the more gold needs to be behind it so it keeps it's value.

Sony are aware of the production issues, so the marketing team had to come up with something to bury them; what they did was create a narrative in which it was a feminist statement.

Well he's using his dwindling fame to still do things that he wants and its pretty clear he just wants a good life. He's not a dipshit youtube celeb trying to milk it for all its worth until their immense lack of talent becomes known. Nor is he forcing videos out like some dying channels.

Gracefully bowing out into obscurity isn't a bad deal considering the legacy of AVGN.
>>
>>344553908
It's probably a combination of wanting to make things other than just a straight review and how tight shit has been recently with copyright strikes on actual footage being used in reviews.

I'm glad to have watched this guy for three reasons. Number one is that a top 11 video he did made me search out the music he used so now I got one of my favorite artists.
The second is I learned of the movie Manhunter. And lastly, that one clip of 'jumping the shark'.
I don't really watch him too much though, he's gonna pretty fucking lame like those videos recently to use to respond to 'internet trolls' and 'haters', it stinks of passive-aggressive asshurt.

After more than a hundred videos, I still think AVGN has more good than bad, and that's impressive. Where James truly shines is when he's talking about stuff he's passionate about. Love his Monster Madness videos.

Since we're talking about James' auction, if you have an hour and a half to spare, watch the videos where Mike and James goes through all the scripts he saved from the AVGN episodes. It's amazing how much work goes into those episodes...

One of my favorite episodes is when he reviews Hong Kong 97. Surprised nobody mentions Hong Kong 97. Either that or his Big Rigs review, the Castlevania marathon, and Plumbers Don't Wear Ties.

James is the OG e-celeb. There had been fad celebrities before, but he was the first to really stick. Everyone after has been chasing the trend, the fact that James never intended to be famous reflects well on how he's a normal, functioning adult.

James is the worst actor, man. I have no doubt that he got emotional when doing this but he couldn't accurately recreate it with the camera guy there. I love the video all the same if only for his earnestness.
>>
What does James actually do that isn't AVGN?

Like he's making decent money since he still has a nice house and a family.

Does he have a professional job or something?
>>
>>344526618
not his biggest fan but that was very emotional
very nice of him to give back to the hospital

>>344559575
Yeah, he does have a full-time job that hasn't been disclosed. Probably for the best that way.
>>
>>344559575
AVGN. That shit's become a large brand, it's not as "hueg" now but up until about 2009 it was pretty much the biggest part of Youtube.

He also had an exclusivity deal for a while with ScrewAttack, which also paid.

How did /v/ went from Love AVGN, then to hate him, and then to Love him again ?

Because people thought in the AVGN movie when he let the black guy kiss the girl that he was a cuck because le memes xD
and then they love him again because he shut down the new ghostbusters.

We never really hated James. We mostly made fun of his shitty movie.
>>
>>344560027
>Loved him because e-celebs weren't a popular thing yet

He cucked himself, but then uncucked himself.

It's also the only e-celeb /v/ mods seem to allow, other then game center.

>>344526618
Every time I remember the feminists, and SJWs bitch and moan about a web reviewer saying he will not see the new Sony Ghostcucker's film. I also remember that this man actually makes a positive influence in his family's, and a complete stranger's life.

Leftism on suicide watch.
>>
>>344560027

I don't think anyone hated him, I think his work just kinda went downhill and to be fair, he wanted to do other things.

We made fun of his movie, but no one actually hates James.

He's also pretty humble and when you watch some of his videos involving movies instead of games, he puts a lot of love into them. He definitely cares more about movies than vidya.

Fuck the IT crowd was an actual half decent comedy show. Its sad when you see people, who by every account should be normal reasonable people, go off the rails retarded with their opinions on social media. Did half the people who got buttblasted over this not even watch the video? James was pretty reasonable in his argument for not seeing in a video specifically made for his fans who might have wanted or expected a review. People are taking it like he is out in town square making a declaration to everyone that "ITS DOGSHIT AND EVERYONE WHO SEES IT IS AN ASSTWISTER"

Friday the 13th is objectively the best of the bunch.

It's the perfect nerd episode, with all the suspense and atmosphere from James' horror films combined with the AVGN style humor and NES dorkiness. It's perfectly paced and written, no flaws to be found here.

It was also one of the first episodes where he really perfected the AVGN formula/structure and the later episodes pretty much just copy from it.

Last but not least: it tells a story, you fire up the episode and from the get-go the feel is weirdly off and you are wondering why James is praising the game for once, won't spoil it but..

Just go watch it.
>>
>>344560785
>Did half the people who got buttblasted over this not even watch the video?
They didn't because pretty much all of those news articles and tweets are fake.

What, did you think that some big celebs or mainstream audience watch James Rolfe? Cinemassacre is a pretty small website with a niche audience which consists of people who play NES games.

>>344526618
Like others have pointed out, James really is a stand up guy. He hasn't let his fame get to him, probably because he has a genuine grasp on the fact that if he alienates his fans, then he alienates his entire audience. On YouTube, he has (almost) complete freedom to do what he wants, and how he wants. Want to make a two minute review? Go ahead. Want to make an hour long one? Feel free. James is probably one of the most level headed e-celebs ever.

James also is a bretty great guy. He didn't auction his stuff off to make more money, he didn't squander it, and he didn't try to make up some bullshit story to get more money. If you're giving it away, you really don't need to convince people you're doing a charity run with it.

If you really go and look at it all, James is probably one of the best e-celebs out there. Look at a ton of others, and you'll see that none of them hold a candle to the amount of content he creates (good or bad) on a regular basis, and the amount of effort he puts into his videos.

Yeah, J&MM videos are kind of cheating, but you can't keep pumping out AVGN episodes and expect them to be quality. He tried that already earlier on, and it did not fare well.

I'm probably talking out my ass, but I would happily sit down with James and have a few beers with him. He seems like a really nice guy, and as down to earth as they can get.

Why do all you retarded right wingers try to make this into a political issue?

James told us the reasons why he's not interested in watching the new Ghostbusters, and it has NOTHING to do with the fact that the cast is all women. You guys act like he's somehow trying to "trigger" feminists but really he made his reasons clear and it has nothing to do with feminism, politics, or any of the shit you retards bitch and moan about on the internet so much.

In closing, stop trying to drag James down to your level. He's a national fucking treasure and he doesn't care about politics. Yes, the few clowns out there who criticized him for not wanting to watch the movie are idiots, but you're also an idiot for giving a shit about any of this. Leave James alone, he's too pure.

>Why are they defending it as if it was the holy grail?
because it's literally the only thing they "contribute" to society despite actually being a cancer upon it.

It's the same rationale behind slacktivists, they know that they don't do anything of substance to actually benefit society so they try to squeeze in their two cents so they can feel like rosa parks for two minutes.

They honestly think that defending the new ghostbusters film is a form progression, and in the future they will unironically look back and think they were "on the right side of history" and made a difference.

I blame the internet, it has made people delusional.
