It’s literally Captain Kirk taking down Harry S Plinkett. Try becoming literate you uncultured swine. You’re more disappointing than my son, and he killed himself in a gas station restroom.
Yes, it's definitely him. He just happens to care about all these issues that are important to 4chan zoomers. He was on Broadway before most of your parents were born, but he's adapted so well to the new generation.
You will never be relevant. He accomplished more in his life before Star Trek than you ever will. Him being in a failed pilot for a Nero Wolfe TV series is more notable than everything you will ever do. Deal with that.
“Hey Bill, thanks but we didn’t invite you. Oh, and BTW, our buddy Macauley Culkin egging you to do our show and everyone else that’s doing the same? We don’t know anything about they did that. It’s all just your imagination, Mr. Shatner.”
Is he trolling? Isn't this exactly the case? That rabid fans of both shows wanted Shatner to go on RLM but that's it?
He sounds like he thinks this was some 9D Chess move by RLM to set him up. Even RLM saying "Leave Shatner alone" is actually part of their grand design to further bully him.
You'd think the cast of Star Trek of all people would understand that you can't always control obnoxious crazy fans. A medium article this long on how everyone is looking to set him up is borderline schizoposting.
what is wrong with RLM fans? I would be so embarrassed if I were the RLM guys
Seriously. I like the channel but the fans are creepy weirdos. Why do they so desperately need for Bill to like RLM? And how autistic are they that they think Mike was genuinely on the verge of tears
Actually no. Rich and Jack were quite clear that they stopped Previously Recorded because the channel wasn't growing at the rate that they wanted (though you can definitely put that on them) and Jack in particular didn't think it was worth his time since he wasn't making enough to justify putting his day job off to the side.
I stopped going to the RLM sub ages back cos it's an unfunny circlejerk of creepy weirdos but somebody needs to tell those freaks to just accept it when somebody else doesn't like the thing you like. RLM fans are apparently the new Rick and Morty fans.
Its wierd cuz imo they're just a really good movie review channel that seems to have absolutely zero interest in fan interaction. It seems like no matter what you do as long as your popular your fanbase is going to be an embarrassing mess you just have to ignore at all costs.
I did hear a rumor that Mike Stoklasa's exgirlfriend stopped appearing on their videos because of the weird and creepy fans so "zero interest in fan interaction" might be understating it.
I really think fan interaction as a whole is overrated. I mean content creators shouldn't be in parasocial relationships with their viewers and vice versa. Just let the people who make things you like be people who make things you like.
I think the paradigm shift in toxic fandoms probably was best illustrated in Gamer Gate. I’m not going to get into the particulars or choose a side in what happened but a lot of really cruel and unnecessary actions by both sides showed how ugly and toxic social media has made fandoms and their members. Personally I think it was the spark for many other causes that got ugly.
After all these years, Captain Kirk finally ended Gamer Gate. There's really nothing left to say about it.
The fans, sure, but it's bizarre for Shatner to think this is some kind of coordinated attack secretly ordered by Mike Stoklasa. RLM openly refer to their own fans as a bunch of weirdo losers with no lives. Theres a reason they don't interact with their fanbase, and that reason is the fans themselves.
Eh, Just ignore them like RLM does. They have no real influence or power.
Though if you appreciate drama, you should look into the saga of how Mike's girlfriend, Jessi, left the show because of creepy obsessive fans stalking her feet pics and collecting them on some foot fetish wiki.
Honestly as an outside observer, I would put this on Shatner. The dude just would not stop egging them on.
The reason this controversy got out of hand was because Shatner, unprompted, decided to accuse RLM of orchestrating some grand conspiracy to attack him a few days ago out of nowhere. The situation with the fans had happened literally a year prior, it was done.
I don't know which wire is crossed differently but I dont know why anyone would go to the comments on a RLM video, everything you need to know is in the video
Gee,maybe if you didn't rest on your lazy ass and hustled back in the '60s that wouldn't be your 15 minutes of fame. The star wars cast all did the same thing except Harrison Ford,and look who has 2 iconic roles under his belt.
Seriouspost: Have you all never been around old people or do you have such severe literal a*tism that you can't pick up on subtle language cues? Like you know, if someone says "SJW" or "gamergate" then they probably didn't come of age in the 1940s.

Star Trek hasn't been relevant in 20 years and I've never even heard of the other guy.
This shit is more embarrassing than your parenting.
7 Redactor0 2020-07-27

You know if lawz was the one to ban shatner from here, that makes 2 star treck actors to cry about him on other social media platforms.
3 Funkyduffy 2020-07-27
Lawlz has a mission to single-handedly make every Trek alum cry
23 rowdymikey 2020-07-27
Sorry, I forget RLM fans can't read. Maybe Mike will make another podcast so you can understand what's going on?
32 Iowa_Hawkeye 2020-07-27
You're speaking Greek to me, i have no interest in starshit that takes 15 mins to read.
13 RecallRethuglicans 2020-07-27
It’s only 15 minutes because you’re reading it in Shatner’s deliberate speech patterns
7 rowdymikey 2020-07-27
You can tell he's an RLM fan because of how angry he is with the world
33 SupaDupaFlyAccount 2020-07-27
I'm going to side with rlm on this one because Shatner is a bitch that ran to Twitter to cry about his r/drama ban.

RLM fans are so fucking weird and creepy that Rich Evans stopped doing Previously Recorded because he couldn't tolerate the chat any longer.
8 Lysimachid 2020-07-27
That was because the fans watched the streams just to bully them because Jack and Rich were boring and easy to bully.
9 MidgetsRGodsBloopers 2020-07-27
"Mic's too loud, I can still hear Jack" was the chat message that got me banned 😤

Shatner's almost 90 and he's writing 15 minute articles about YouTubers and Twitter-ers. What is this world.

15 minute articles that directly mention G*mer Gate.
