Jimquisition: Solving the Sexism Situation

[lord.jeff]

This guy reminds me of Michael Moore, in the fact that even if you agree with his points, it's really hard to agree with him.

 

[Kaytastrophe]

extra credits did it...and better might I add. Is this guy trying to be ironic/sarcastic, because frankly he's not funny in the least. Honestly, this show needs to go. I don't see the show getting any better, unless that horny 14 year old boy they got drawing penises on Microsoft Paint photoshop. Honestly wtf with all the microsoft paint drawings of penis?

 

[WilliamRLBaker]

And still Jim proves to be 1 of the only 2 reasons I come to escapist.

This guy is pretty much piggy-backing off of what commentators like Yahtzee, Moviebob, and the Extra Credits crew have been saying for a while now. The host just seems to be trying too hard to make a name for himself. I mean, The "Jimquisition," seriously? My only serious critique is that host needs to get over himself.

I can't lie,but I think that's part of the "joke"

So he's like the Movie Movie's guys that just rehash the same two jokes throughout their "parody" movies? Now I feel almost sorry for him.

Well that and the "he's up his own ass" thing

Something that pisses me off about this is that if a user said the same things or posted the same images of half-naked men, penis wolves, and Duke Nukem with no pants on, they'd be promptly banned. If we can't do that, then why should we tolerate him doing it?

 

[Zero V85]

Hell ya objectification for all !!!!

 

[I forgot]

there is barely any real sexism in games. Most people are just oversensitive. Every game I've ever seen called sexist never actually was.

Jimquisition: alienating half its potential audience since 2011.

At least when he started talking about men in chainmail bikinis I started to guess he wasn't serious, but some people do honestly believe this, and this satire does nothing to persuade them that it's an unhealthy attitude to have.

 

[WesternGamer]

Still better than Movie Bob.

 

[timrattray]

For those complaining, the solution is simple: don't watch his videos. Nobody is forcing you to. Anybody who complains next time because they don't get the idea of simple solutions is a nub.

This bothers me more than anythin. If his show went to a podcast I wouldn't mind it all that much, but this kinda crap is disgustin. The Escapist wanted us to all vote for them in that webby lifestyle award thin and then they went and put this crap show on. Seriously Escapist...this is the kind of face you want people to see on your site? This is the kind of show that you think makes people look at the gaming world in a different light? Ugh.

 

[erbkaiser]

Skipping the rest of these episodes, the first one was bad, and this one is even worse.

Worst thing on the Escapist since Game Dogs's second season.

 

[Gameonicon]

Why do some people behave like jerks?
Well I have the perfect solution... LET US ALL BEHAVE LIKE JERKS.
Because it is our nature it is in our genes to behave like jerks!
The world will become a better place if we are all jerks!
/sarcasm

So stupid... /rolleyes

 

[le picklez]

Oh god....... my eyes... marcus in a thong....

Anyway, nice video.

 

[Uskis]

My, my, my Jimbo. Knicked a month old joke from "The punchline is machismo" webcomic did you? Naughty, naughty!

Maybe it wasn't rip-off, since many people probably made the same connection, but it was still a lazy observation.

Oh, and nice introduction of the MS-paint things to cover up the fact that you couldn't 1-take it.

 

[Hatchet90]

Gawd.... this guy fucking sucks.

 

[Okysho]

crap show is crap. What is this even doing on the escapist? I figured it was worth a second chance, but frankly he's just coming off as a douche who's not funny and thinks that all the answers are simple. If all the answers were simple, then things would be better after 20-30 years of development and changing wouldn't they?

 

[GeneticallyModifiedDucks]

Respect the guy for having the massive balls to give an important first party title a really low score.

Hate everything else about him.

Seriously, I thougth after all the negative feedback and the fact that he was absent for a while that the Escapist kicked him out of the door. Sadly, it seems I was wrong.

Third, it didn't even solve anything.. he just pretty much making the games more focused on sexual qualities then making the game worth meaning.

It does solve something, it solves the inequality. When presented with any inequality there is usually more than one way to solve it.

I don't want to derail the thread, but what's with all the my little pony avatars?
