Please be aware by the time I began blogging the beginning of the questions were gone cause it reset in the chatroom. So enjoy whats here! MAJOR THANKS TO TimADugan for supplying me with the beginning of the questions I edited out all the side conversations, so it should be easier to read. Except for one cause I made a funny in it :) 08/13/2008 20:07:22 ‹LordVonQuack› How many questions from Ask A Guy do you pick? Like do you answer a bunch and then cut the ones you don't like?
08/13/2008 20:07:57 ‹Overactor› How do you make the sound so clear? 08/13/2008 20:08:00 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For 'Ask That Guy' I try to pick ones I know I can get a funny answer to, but most of the time I have to admit it's just random
08/13/2008 20:08:24 ‹Coldguy› so be honest, did you honestly think your site would be so popular as it is right now?
08/13/2008 20:08:42 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› In terms of sound, i don't have a microphone, so I guess it's just the camera mic that's really good
08/13/2008 20:09:19 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› In terms of the site's popularity, I didn't really know it'd be THIS popular, it's still a lot to take in to be honest
08/13/2008 20:09:39 ‹M.D.K.II› Serious question: are movies/TV shows the only thing you would consider reviewing? I'm asking this because the Video Game review was nice. And have you heard of Yahtzee from Zero Punctuation (if yes, what do you think of him)?
08/13/2008 20:09:54 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For the room question, that's in my living room
08/13/2008 20:10:59 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For the video game Q, it was kind of annoying to match up the image with the narration, so i don't know how many of those I will be doing. To be honest, I think AVGN is much better at it.
08/13/2008 20:11:54 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For the camera question, I use a Sony HDV Handycam (if that helps)
08/13/2008 20:11:59 ‹admin› LordVonQuack› Can we expect any new characters/sketchs anytime in the near future?
08/13/2008 20:12:13 ‹GogglesChick› >>Once more... About how much time do you spend editing each day?
08/13/2008 20:13:14 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For the editing Q, it varies, the Bum and Ask That Guy vids are about an hour, NC is usually a few days, and sketches are like 3 or 4 usually 08/13/2008 20:14:21 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For the Character Q, I'm always thinking of new characters and sketches, but find it tricky to juggle the characters I'm doing now with my current work. But I assure you you'll see more in the future  08/13/2008 20:15:19 ‹admin› ‹TimADugan› Here's my question: is this site turning out to be a lot of fun for you, or is it too much hard work?
08/13/2008 20:15:34 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For the Full Time Job Q, I'm fially getting some real good decent $ for this, and we are hoping to turn this into a fll time gig. The way it's been growing, it's becoming more and more likely
grow too! 08/13/2008 20:16:22 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For TimADugan's Q, it's both. It's hard work but I absolutely LOVE doing it. It's more fun then should be allowed
08/13/2008 20:16:36 ‹admin› M.D.K.II› Your popularity has increased despite Youtube's attempts to delete your videos. Do you think that in a few years you'll have your own TV show (and most of all, would you want that)?
08/13/2008 20:18:10 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For MDKII's Q, online is nice because there are few to no boundaries. I'm sure as more sponsors and advertisers get on board that will bcome more tricky, but to be honest I'm not a fan of TV's censorship, even though it is getting better year after year
08/13/2008 20:18:22 ‹admin› Dr Dib› Here's a question I think everyone is dying to know, Has your SNES started to yellow?
08/13/2008 20:18:38 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› Yellow? As in turn yellow? 08/13/2008 20:18:43 ‹Dr Dib› yes
08/13/2008 20:19:17 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› LOL, yeah, and it was dusty as Hell when i played it again. It was cool though because I got to play a lot of games I totally forgto about 08/13/2008 20:19:23 ‹admin› ‹Overactor› Any advice for first time filmakers? 08/13/2008 20:19:25 ‹ChickWGoggles› Do you dislike mild copycats like myself?
08/13/2008 20:20:38 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For Chick's Q, LOL, no, copycats are great because more often then not they branch out into their own characters. The Bum is just talking about movies, but after awhile he becomes his own entity and doesn't even need the movies much anymore to be entertaining
08/13/2008 20:22:16 ‹admin› ‹Punky› what inspired you to create the nostalgia critic?? 08/13/2008 20:22:18 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For 'Overactor's Q, the only advice I can give is keep making movies, as many as you can, that's the only way to learn. If want to get popular on the web though, talk about things that people google all the time, like movies, politics, shows, ect
08/13/2008 20:24:44 ‹admin› ‹Coldguy› I was wondering that after you got the chat room and forums what would you like to see the site become to expand the audience participation
08/13/2008 20:25:50 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For ColdGuy's Q, I don't know, that's part of what's fun about it. i have no idea what it will expand out to or what it will become. Hopefully something posative, but that depends on the people. It's kind of cool that way. 08/13/2008 20:26:04 ‹admin› ‹ChickWGoggles› question> "Is it funny to you to find out that you have fangirls that want to marry you and things like that??"
08/13/2008 20:26:55 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For Chick's Q, it is kind of funny. I don't see myself as that big of a catch, but who am I to argue with what the women want? LOL 08/13/2008 20:26:58 ‹Punky› *dies* 08/13/2008 20:27:03 ‹Overactor› LOL 08/13/2008 20:27:04 ‹ChickWGoggles› hahaha 08/13/2008 20:27:08 ‹M.D.K.II› lol 08/13/2008 20:27:11 ‹Horribafuckus125› haha 08/13/2008 20:27:19 ‹admin› ‹TimADugan› When you started this "fued" with the AVGN, did you ever think you'd be in a video with him AND Captain S? 08/13/2008 20:27:20 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› What was Punky's Q? 08/13/2008 20:27:24 ‹Coldguy› haha spoken from a true guy 08/13/2008 20:27:25 ‹crazygamer› wow I could hear the fangirls scream from the neighborhood 08/13/2008 20:27:33 ‹LordVonQuack› Inspiration for Nostalgia Critic 08/13/2008 20:27:34 ‹Overactor› I was one 08/13/2008 20:27:34 ‹Overactor› XD 08/13/2008 20:27:35 ‹Punky› what was u inspiration for creating NC 08/13/2008 20:27:37 * Techy23' joins TGWTG 08/13/2008 20:27:38 ‹ChickWGoggles› crazygamer, lol 08/13/2008 20:27:40 ‹Overactor› LOL 08/13/2008 20:27:49 ‹Punky› *Faints* 08/13/2008 20:27:50 ‹Horribafuckus125› haba 08/13/2008 20:27:50 ‹M.D.K.II› 16 ‹admin› ‹Punky› what inspired you to create the nostalgia critic??
08/13/2008 20:28:17 ‹admin› on a sidenote... a blog of this would get you massive views/comments 08/13/2008 20:27:50 ‹M.D.K.II› 16 ‹admin› ‹Punky› what inspired you to create the nostalgia critic?? 08/13/2008 20:28:27 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For Tim's Q, I always kind of hoped it would, but i knew it was unlikely. I'm still shocked it's turning out as well as it is and I couldn't be happier 08/13/2008 20:30:10 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For MDKII's Q, I noticed a lot of people enjoyed talking about old nostalgic shows and how different they are now. When I started watching these shows again I realized how funny it was that these shows that seemed so incredible are actually pretty silly now. A lot of peopl thought the same, so I figured I'd come up with a character that almost felt BETRAYED by it. I think it turned out to be a 20:33:29 ‹admin› ‹Coldguy› Is there any particular user(s) that impressed you with their work as either a fan tribute or a unique creative work? 20:34:54 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For ColdGuy's Q, One that stands out to me was someone did my Transformer review while puttin images from the movie over it so it matched perfectly. I've gotten lots of great fan vids but that one always stands first in my head for some reason, maybe because it's one of the first ones I got 20:35:42 ‹LordVonQuack› Missed my question: Do you ever get the chance to read/watch member posted blogs/videos? 08/13/2008 20:35:45 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› Anyone else's work I like Iusually just steal them and have them work for the site, LOL 20:36:46 ‹admin› ‹Cloud Strife (Emo)› That is the question to him: I am probably the only one that thinks this but, does this all seem to be like a live verison of AskThatGuy? 08/13/2008 20:36:48 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For LandVon's Q, I try to look at as much as I can, but it's hard to keep a job, do videos, and read everything written about you. I do get to see some of it hough, and I always try to follow how I'm doing with my fans 20:37:28 ‹admin› ahzheejhei› Question! What inspired you to start the Bum Reviews? 20:37:42 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For Cloud Strife's Q, lol, a little bit, except my answers aren't that funny 20:38:08 ‹admin› ‹adamjee37› Question for That Guy: When it comes to Nostalgia, what defines it? What's the oldest or the newest it can be to truly be considered "Nostalgic"? 20:39:29 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For ahzee's Q, I did the Bum because I was trying to think of another character I could do that would be quick, easy, and allow me to use the voice I used in my Cloverfield review (which I fell in love with right away). I get mixed thoughts about him as I think many people do, but he still holds a close spot in heart 20:39:52 ‹admin› ‹LordVonQuack› I love your comedy stylings, and I find your facial expressions and straightman comments to be your greatest assests. What would you say is your greatest comedy strength, and did anyone inspire you? 20:40:53 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For adamjee37's Q, anything in the past is nostalgic, but for the show, I try to keep to things from the mid 80s to the mid 90s, cause that's when i grew up, and thus have the favorable (and often miskewed) memories that I can compare to now 20:42:17 ‹admin› Horribafuckus125› what do you think of the i.rateganer i recently saw his ET review and a gag seemed very similar to you batman and robin gag with the multple choice 20:43:11 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For LordVonQuack's Q, I think my faces are pretty funny, I actually worked on them when I was younger so I could get reactions down pat. The people who admire me the most in terms of comedy are hard to say. I guess greats like buster Keaton would be up there. I love Bill Murray, and even Christopher Walkin oddly enough. Anyone who seems to do their own thing in comedy I usually admire 20:44:09 ‹admin› ‹iamturokforreales› Why has nobody ever given the bum change yet? 20:44:17 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For Horribafuckus125's Q, I haven't seen much of his stuff so it's hard to comment. What I did see didn't make me laugh much, so I didn't really continue watching it. 20:45:18 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For iamturokforreales's Q, LOL, I don't know, maybe people are affraid of him. I would be if I saw him on the street. Hell, I'm affraid of him now! 20:45:30 ‹admin› ‹ChickWGoggles› I'm a bit of a fan over at Screw Attack too, I was wondering if you frequent there aswell 20:46:56 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For ChickWGoggles' Q, I went there to check out the forrums (to be honest, just to see what they were saying about me, lol), but not much else. I'm too sure about the shows they have aside from AVGN and Captain S 20:47:08 ‹admin› adamjee37› If you didn't have such great success at this, where would you be and what would you do? Would you still be at the auto place 20:48:11 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For adamjee37's Q, LOL, no, I'd probably be doing what I still am kind of doing, illustration and design. I love to draw and love to work with clients, but I will admit I like doing videos better 20:48:29 ‹admin› ‹Handsome Hans› Q: Do you really think Batman and Robin was THAT bad 20:50:08 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For Handsome Hans' Q, it's pretty bad, but remember I only read 2 comic books growing up, Batman and X-Men, so to see that happen to Batman really pissed me off. But now it's jut kind of a fun joke to look back and laugh at. I was remarking more on how other people really hate the movie when I did the review. I don't think it's one of the worst films ever, I just think it's bad 20:50:26 ‹admin› ‹Dr Dib› As a fellow Chicagolander I would like to know this question: Cubs or Sox? 20:51:38 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For Dr Dib's Q, i think the real question is: Sports or Simpsons? LOL, I'm not really a sports fan, so I rarely keep up. I'll admit though that the Sox did win the world series, so that gives them a plus in my book. 20:51:50 ‹admin› ‹ChickWGoggles› :O You're an illustrator?? Where can I see your work 20:53:02 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For ChickWGoggles' Q, I have a REALLY outdated site at DouglasDarien.com You can see some of my stuff there, but like I said it has some errors and such 'cause i haven't updated or even looked it in forever 20:53:12 ‹admin› ‹Horribafuckus125› since i know brazil is your favorite movie ( weird i know that) what's your least favorite? 20:54:21 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For Horribafuckus125's Q, though i don't think it's the worst film ever made, my personal favorite bad movie is Dungeons and Dragons. I actually rented to see how bad it was, and it was so bad that's it's actually almost good, it's that beautifully horrible. 20:54:34 ‹admin› ‹crazygamer› "What does your family think about your videos?" 20:55:43 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For crazygamer's Q, they like my stuff, though like most good families they don't approve of my harsh language and subject matter at times, but they still recognize good humor 20:55:56 ‹admin› ‹MarzGurl› Question: Man, my question will come off selfish - How heavy will votes from viewers weigh against personal opinion from you/Rob/admin/whoever plays a role here with the Company when Nostalgia Chick entries hit the site? 20:57:13 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For MarzGurl's Q, it all depends. We'll compare what we think with what the people think with how available and talented the person is. Everything is kind of weighed in. 20:58:25 ‹admin› ‹Overactor› I'm curious, what rule is it that says minors cant participate in the Nolstalgia chick contest? 21:00:17 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› For Overactor's Q, we have that rule more for the fact that people under 18 usually don't have that much knowledge of the 80s and 90s, and even if they do, they don't really have the memories of what they were like ata younger age or how other people accepted the material at the time. Plus there might be some labor laws, I don't know 21:01:36 ‹ThatGuyWithTheGlasses› Well, I have to admit I have to go, I still have to edit the next few 'Ask that Guy' episodes. Thank you all for the questions. I assure you I will be back again soon enough. Take care.
