There were some times when I didn't agree with Bob's perspective on movies, that's okay though because I like hearing different opinions; conclusions and analysis.
He's also continuing his Agent Carter recaps on his blog. I liked his regular dissection of the MCU, filling in all the blanks and making wild speculations about what's going to happen next, so it's nice to see him still doing that.JoJo said:Yeah, it seems really short-sighted of the Escapist letting Bob go, cutting out most of their movie content in one chop. Still, the good news is that he's continuing on YouTube if you want to watch him over there, for example:
I used to feel the same way about bob, but over time it felt like he was just ranting about the same things over and over again to the point where the movies didn't really matter compared to his political ideology. I think he said it best on his blog about leaving:Itchi_da_killa said:There were some times when I didn't agree with Bob's perspective on movies, that's okay though because I like hearing different opinions; conclusions and analysis.
It just sounds like he was doing it for the wrong reasons.it took a moment for it to occur to me that I had no reason to care what the big movie for this weekend was going to be because there'd be no Escape to The Movies on Friday or ever again
I wouldn't say short-sighted so much as unfortunate. Part of the problem was letting one person dominate their coverage of an entire field of entertainment: with no alternative there was no accountability.

I wish I had a cat that could morph into a little plane. Can we talk about that instead?Solaire of Astora said:Fret not! You can actually follow content contributors as Jojo pointed out if you still want to watch their content!
Nah, let's just make more passive-aggressive jabs at what The Escapist's current direction is appearing to be without waiting for anything to actually happen. Much as I'm unsure about it as well.
Yes. In fact, such a cat existing is coming closer and closer to becoming a reality.Barbas said:I wish I had a cat that could morph into a little plane. Can we talk about that instead?
Ah, no, no, no...you see, I distinctly remember saying "plane", not "helicopter".Solaire of Astora said:(Snip).
Do you have any alternative ideas for entertainment? I've already provided one sensible suggestion. People love cats, you know.Muspelheim said:It's okay! Don't frown, be positive and come enjoy geek culture!
