Wtf happened to Jontron

Post by Rushy » Mon Sep 30, 2024 2:42 am

Why is his Youtube channel so shit now?

1) I get that his brand of humour is maybe not for everyone and

2) He changed his format after Flex Tape

But his videos are so blatantly shallow cash-ins now. Cinemassacre puts in more effort nowadays than Jontron. At least James still reviews stuff. Jon just points at some weirdo for 10 minutes saying "lmfao, he's weird amirite" and then fucks off for another four months.

Was Classic Jontron even that good? All his takes back then were pretty generic. Anyway, you answered your own question, he's streamlined and processed his content because anything he makes now gets 7 digit views, guaranteed. Doesn't need to try harder than that.

He was the golden child of the post-angry-reviewer era.
Then he found the golden balance that would let him game both his audience and the almighty algorithm.

Personally the reliance on skits has become annoying. That was already lame during the heyday of CA, and it still is.
If I want to watch a fat guy poke fun at dumb shit I can just tune in to the meatcanyon guy, who also uploads more and doesn't have skits.

Tell me this isn't early JonTronian.

No, and Flex-Tape Jontron is much better.
I haven't watched any of his latest videos, but i'll always like him more than any of his leftist clones.

Is that the same guy called meat-something who does animations?
In one video about the Johnny Depp trial, he implied that the people defending him were just obsessed with the Sparrow movies.
In another one he implied that Jordan Peterson and Musk are connected to Epstein.
In another one he pretended to make fun of Anthony Fagtano, never mentioning the political flip flop out of fear of being cancelled, and the two of them did a 69 in the comment section.
Fuck him.

It's funny 'cause it's true.

Papa Meat, as he calls himself, is a talented animator with a distinct style. Then again, so is Shadman.
Meatfag is a turbo leftist. I bet he lives in LA.

Didn't we have a dedodated Jon thread, or was that in the antediluvian days of DHI3 when he was relevant for the last time?

I liked the fucker when he still did gaymen reviews with the birb, but anyone that rubs beards together with Jihad the Conartist is sus in my book

Jon is past his zenith but still /ourguy/ in my book.
Yes, we have a JonTron thread. You just wanted to use "antediluvian" and I don't blame you, as it's a pretty lulzy term.
