EFFORTPOST I want to seethe and rant about a specific YouTube video

Hecko! :marseywave2:

Hello Rdrama, it's time for your Minecraft YouTuber Autism fest again! :marseypills:

It's always insightful to engage in a bit of market research. :marseyembrace:

I gotta know what my contemporaries are up to, my competition!


Ladies and gentlemen the Minecraft YouTuber TommyInnit.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738695479lSoCCCGc3u6t7g.webp

Now I do not want to do a deep dive on who this guy is because I do not feel like writing 1000s of words today.

But the run down is this guy was some 16 year old kid (hes 21 now) who made his way to fame through the Dream SMP Live Minecraft server, which streamed to hundreds of thousands of concurrent viewers.

Since then he has fallen out with the YouTuber 'Dream' and the coalition of streamers has split off into two camps. Both r-slurred but arguably the "Tommyinnit" side is worse.

I personally find this guy to be utterly obnoxious, cringe and is the very epitome of the current oversensitivity of Minecraft fans which plague my hobby and source of income. :marseypearlclutch:

Here is a timestamped youtube video of the kind of guy he is!

NOT THE R-SLUR!!!!! :marseyrage:

>My mum worked with adults with disabilities

Yeah, she is your mother after all :marseysmug2:


Tommyinnit fancies himself a bit of a comedian, he does live shows where he charges $60 dollars per ticket to see him do the worse comedy routine ever.

I am utterly convinced that with no practice I could do better than him right now.

(timestamped video, watch like 30s if you can lmao)


THIS IS THE SHITNERNET

In pursuit of his comedic genius, he has started an internet show called "This is the Internet" and the target of my autism today.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738695479lf0VfiDx5WtQiw.webp

I actually really like the idea and concept for the show, where he does like an episode once a month re-capping and making fun of internet trends and stories, like Norm Macdonald but for the zoomies like me!!!! :marseyzoomer:

The one problem is... Is painfully fricking unfunny and bad.

The show starts ok, and I don't have much to say about the intro, other than I would of been funnier to film real homeless instead of an actor.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738695479cqc0K6nrrJEvjQ.webp

Then we get to the main shot of his newscaster desk and the amateurish problems become apparent immediately

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17386954803b_Atqbzc21mXQ.webp

See that microphone? That is not a prop, that is the actual microphone the audio is coming from, as a result you can hear every microscopic movement he makes on the desk, even movement of his hands, and as the mic has no stabilizer he bumps is constantly!!!

Like its fricking crazy, its a static shot you can just attach a boom mic, and have the desk mic for a backup. And r-slurred production plagues this 20 min video.


Watch Joke

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738695480MoUSHeu2XG-XCQ.webp

Ok first joke of the episode he looks at his wrist even though he doesn't have a watch, something I like in premise, but I think he holds it too long and it's too obvious that it kind of breaks it.

A better example of this joke is from this timestamp from the Amazing Digital Circus

And how would you follow up this silly 1s gag of a nonexistent watch?

Oh yeah, r-slurred train noises for an excruciating 12s, where he spits everywhere.

And this is a common trend in this video is that TommyInnit does not know when to end a fricking joke.

Like this should of been cut out anyway, but if you had to include it... LIKE 1 SECOND AT MOST


Peepee Joke

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738695481wyoiWme1Rufglg.webp

Tommy mentions how Magnus Carlson was disqualified from a chess tourney for wearing jeans, which leads to a joke about how he's against wearing trousers and shows that his actually naked below the suit.

Once again, a joke which can work but it should be a more subtle visual gag.

If he had a larger newsroom set or was on location he could have two men carrying a mirror in the background somewhere, which shows his bare butt to the camera while he says something else, not drawing direct attention to it.

Maybe not even have the context of Magnus Carlson at all and just have it has an absurd background visual with no explanation.

example of this type of joke done right from Naked Gun 2 1/2

But at the moment its obnoxious, in your face and goes on way too long.


GOES ON TO LONG

Goes without saying, CUT THE JOKE SOONER HOLY SHIT!


https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738695481h_UOU0Dk6cIGMA.webp

HOLY SHIT CRINGE, I know hes a kids entertainer but god darn, this is shit you do to make your very very young toddlers laugh

Genuinely this thread is just to make you guys suffer because I had to watch this, so did you


SKIT 1

This is obviously meant to be a parody of MrBeast and Hype style Youtubers.

He's doing something lame but biggining it up as something super duper epic, except I dont think he fully commit to the bit.

  • The music should be more obnoxious, like dubstep or something

  • He should have like 10 camera angles of the same lame stunt

  • Tons of ridiculous digital zoom ins and post production motion blur

  • I would of just said random money figures randomly to take the piss out of their money obsession. (500 dollar bottle of coke wow!)

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738695481--YqfJXeOUbueA.webp

The biggest problem with the skit is pacing, I believe in a comedy rule which I came up with after watching a horrible Jim Sterling Video.,

"A joke should never take longer than 60s to setup and payoff"

And establishing the parody, the coke and Mentos and the reaction is a tall order for 60s, so in cases like this you need to make the joke evolve somehow.

Have something to break it up into pieces, by sprinkling in smaller jokes in while your building the setup.

You could make a quick jab at overuse of merchandising.

Or ridiculous product placement in the background.

Just something to tithe the viewer over until you can get to that longer punchline. And help further establish the satire element

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738695482i_EXPuO1Mo5ssw.webp

Now too be fair Tommy mostly avoids this problem, managing to get to the Mentos part within 15s pretty efficiently.

but keep this part in mid for the proceeding....

3 MINS OF FOOTAGE

Where hes taking the piss out of the amount of replays which works, but he just keeps the joke going way way way way too fricking long without any evolution.

I seriously encourage you to watch the whole skit and just be in shock with how long it goes on for

He should of done this replay joke for 20s at most, then hard cut to him choking and almost vomiting up the coke looking and sounding ill because he deepthroated it. as the joke "evolving" by undercutting the extreme editing.

Bonus points if you then pan to a random passer-by looking confused and disgusted.

https://i.rdrama.net/images/17386954822TO7Ij_k6alZPQ.webp


SKIT 2

I am going to skip over a lot of the other shit jokes because its very much the same of what I've already covered

This is just the peak of the amateurish filming. First off how do you mic a scene that badly wtf. Everyone's mic quality is different, did they have 1 mic between them. Legit wtf?? It sounds fricking awful.

And the video is completely fricked up. Look at this shot/reverse shot

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738695482P_m-ZbfLa38dBg.webp https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738695483BVtJRecEsQjLjw.webp

The colours and depth of them are completely fricked up, with the tommy shot being incredibly faded out and desatured, which creates a giant disconnect when these two are supposed to be facing each other.

This is further again compounded by the bad audio difference.

Anyway what's this skit about?

5 MINS ON A POOP JOKE WTF

Again I encourage you a ton to watch and suffer through this skit, because it's so fricking bad the whole thing should just be cut.

THIS GUY CHARGES 60 DOLLARS PER TICKET TO SEE HIM LIVE!

>Side note my friends said this guy looks like me, im an austictic with face blindness, is this true?

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738695483OQ6sJfdGhmazvQ.webp https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738695483cF7o3-L_pnu4DA.webp


POOP JOKES

So the premise of the skit if Jack Manifold (also a YTuber) is proposing that Tommy starts making poop content for youtube as an idea, to which they act confused, thus inadvertidly revealing he is into it.

  • First off this should be filmed handhold style with lots of manual zoom in's on faces and try to emulate the style of the Office.

  • Poop is such a lame unfunny thing to centre this skit around

  • This is not an idea that can last 5 mins

A friend and I came up with a concept for the scene to try and make a funny skit out of it.

That instead of poop, Jack is proposing a new mascot for some merch called the "Grapist" where its the mascot of their new grape flavoured juices (you can make fun of prime)

And Tommy and the rest of the boardroom is trying to politely tell him that it sounds like r*pe, but he is oblivious.

You could do a visual joke where he shows a drawing of children sucking the grapists juice sacks, and it looks really really bad, but he just acts innocent and unaware about it.

Edgy but better that POOP FUNNY HEHE!

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738695484uRdP7wWTLptyKg.webp

Serious this is negative comedy


the worse joke in the episode

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738695484d_iY5RyRQRgfgQ.webp

I have no idea what the fricking joke is here legit.

BEST JOKE IN THE EPISODE

https://i.rdrama.net/images/1738695485jPuc-zYfkp5vTQ.webp

THIS WAS WRITTEN BY 3 PEOPLE WHAT THE FRICK


This was made by a production of a small team, which I unironically could make better by myself.

This fricker has gotten 1m views and I have no idea how anyone finds this guy funny

is this mass psychosis.

I don't think I'm an expert or a pro but holy shit.

I hate modern Minecraft YouTubers. I need to help fix the culture....
