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.

I don't.

It's not like he's gone, though, he'll keep making content. He'll just make it somewhere else.

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:

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.

...now that I think about it, trying to stop MovieBob from speculating wildly about the MCU might be a little like trying to stop the sky from being blue.

Well ok that Friday 5pm time fixed but is Bob going to contine The Big Picture or something like that on a Tuesday? (I haven't fully explored his Youtube channel.)

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.

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:

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
It just sounds like he was doing it for the wrong reasons.

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. The other part of the problem can be summed up in one word: twitter. Over the last couple months I noticed other people started posting hollywood-related news and bob's presence on the site suddenly dropped to only what he was on the schedule for; it was just a matter of time after that.


Still, for people that still like moviebob they can always check out his youtube channel.

captcha: winter snow. Ha, I bet bob's got a lot of that out in boston.

I wish I had a cat that could morph into a little plane. Can we talk about that instead?

OT: You basically can't have that, because he doesn't work here any more. And that's that. Now eat your peas.

Yes. In fact, such a cat existing is coming closer and closer to becoming a reality.

Ah, no, no, no...you see, I distinctly remember saying "plane", not "helicopter".

Do you have any alternative ideas for entertainment? I've already provided one sensible suggestion. People love cats, you know.
