Normally, I don't do entire posts calling out a bad YouTube comment of his. I am making an exception to this one.
For a couple years now, IG has said time and time again that he's not making a movie and that "Season 4 is my movie". I've gone over how that would make it the worst movie ever many times now, so I won't go over it here.
A couple hours ago, Bores posted a video advertising his new site. In the comments, someone asked about an IG movie. He gave us usual response... with a twist.
"thats what season 4 is for. Where do you think the other guy got his idea hehehe"
Chris... you're a shithead.
It's pretty obvious who he's referring to, but to have the audacity to claim James Rolfe stole the movie idea from YOU? Here's some facts.
September 23rd, 2010: James Rolfe posted this video to Cinemassacre and YouTube. http://cinemassacre.com/2010/09/23/future-plans-avgn-the-movie/
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZw6YHR2EBM
In it, he mentions that he wrote the script two years ago and the concept was in the works for even longer.
October 9th, 2010: IG posts the first episode of "Season 4", 7-Up Spot.
It was around a year later that Bores started claiming Season 4 was his movie. That was around the time James got serious with his movie.
Here's the truth. James had the idea for the movie loooong before you discovered the "amazing-ness" of HD. So to sit there and go "He got the idea from me" shows just how deep you are in your little bubble of lies.
"He's clearly being sarcastic! Stop taking everything so seriously and take the stick out of your ass!" Okay fine, he might be "sarcastic" here. But it's near impossible to tell with Bores, it's hard to tell what's real and what's not. He's built up all these walls around him that getting the truth is a Herculean task on its own. Especially since he POSES AS HIS OWN MOTHER!
And as the "e-begging spoof" established, he is not above kicking James when he's down. Say, since we've established Chris and "Linda" are the same, does that mean her comment on James e-begging to fund his kid's college fund really came from him? Woooow, what a dickhead.
Overall, Chris continues to find ways to sink lower and attack his so-called "inspirations".
Wow Chris, how much of a prick can you be? Claiming James stole his movie idea from you? Stop attacking him because you'll only make yourself out to be a major douchebag, if you haven't already.
ReplyDeleteHey ZeldaFan I agree with what you were saying to a degree, but I did find in a nutshell funny. Different humor I guess.
ReplyDeleteAlso I didn't want to comment on the old post because you most likely wouldn't see it.
Also ya, Bores is an idiot.
Long time viewer, first time commenter, blah blah blah you've seen this shtick before.
ReplyDeleteYou forgot to mention one major announcement in that new video of his. Apparently, Season 4 is not done and he's "working on" a new review that will (supposedly) progress the story. Finally, his reviews are about to get interesting again! The twenty-six months we'll spend waiting for it will be SO worth it!
Yeah, about as worth it as waiting for a tonsillectomy.
DeleteYou know, I'm not sure how many more times I can put a new spin on the basic phrase "Bores is an arsehole". I can't help but wonder if he even cares about his reputation at this point...
ReplyDeleteAlso, at the beginning of the paragraph after your Sept. 23 paragraph, you misspelled the word truth. There's an "n" where the "h" should be. Not to be a grammar Nazi, but you know how certain detractors are if there's even a single misspelled word. ;-)
And that's paying no attention to the spelling of "Bpres" in Paragraph 3! :)
DeleteGeez, it's no wonder why Scottie (From Chris and Scottie's roadtrip), Brad Harp and DatBoiDrew stopped working for him...
ReplyDeleteAt least there's only two more episodes of his "storyline" left. I'm not sure why he made so many filler episodes though.
ReplyDeleteHe's just making up stuff as he goes. It's likely the story was never going to be continued, but he changed his mind after his (very little) fanbase demanded it.
DeleteI really hope this was just a joke. James doesn't acknowledge Bores' existence. How would James get 'inspired' by him?
ReplyDeleteIt's Bores we're talking about. What do you think?
DeleteMy thoughts are various insults towards Bores.
Deletehttp://youtu.be/HBs8jHWdJLI
ReplyDeleteYour Fault!
DeleteWell, this proves my theory that he was waiting for Linkara to start his storyine again to make more videos. Seriously, his Shadow Overlord is just Vyce, ROB is just Pollo minus personality. Heck, I still think he will do the Giant Robot vs Giant Irate Gamer. Wonder if he will use a coin to grow big as well...
ReplyDeleteGiant robot vs. Giant IG, with Chris playing both roles, would look terrible. So I won't rule it out. But deep down I'm sticking with my age-old prediction that the storyline will end anticlimactically, with a joke that resolves nothing and probably has a "The-End-or-is-it" button, meaning that virtually no story progress has actually occurred.
DeleteIt might be fun to have a poll collecting everyone's guesses for the ending.
Let's see the evil gamer is probably going to be his twin brother. He will most likely one shot the shadow overlord making the entire point of him being silhouetted pointless. The robots are probably going to turn out to be transformers. All in all he is going to make it cliche as all get out and mostly try and fail to appeal to pop culture.
DeleteSomething is hideously wrong with Chris' definition of good and evil. Think about it. Using the Power of Inferno to scare the X-men into submission? Slowly and painfully killing a member of the U.S. Enterprise just because he annoyed him? Not even someone as insane as Bores could be that stupid.
DeleteMy prediction (even though it's TOTALLY not going to be true) is that right before a Giant Irate Gamer can destroy the giant HALbot, Evil Gamer will convince IG with the evidence above that HE was the evil one all along, forcing IG into an existential crisis that won't allow him to destroy the HALbot, instead deciding to review some 'tedious' game like "Animal Crossing" as a means of analyzing his true purpose in life.
One can only dream Bores was capable of that kind of story-telling.

ReplyDeleteShould I riff that? Probably not, I probably will make things even more worse.
That's a bit of irony the second comment page starscream says you go on and on when she has a tendency to do walls of text longer then Falerin.
DeleteThis is why I stopped being a fan of Chris a long time ago and now dislike him. He has always came off as being harshly unpleasant. Does image matter to him? Do others? You can only ostracize yourself so many times before people give up on you and walk away forever.
ReplyDeleteThe thing is, when you watch his shoutout video, he childishly pulls the victim card by stating he tried to stretch an olive branch towards James, but now he's seen the reality of the people he was dealing with.
It's funny how Chris is perfectly comfortable with demonizing others, yet will continue to paint himself as perfect. I wonder, is Chris aware of his faults and character, or does his ego overshadow them?
You used to be a fan of Irate Gamer? Man, I can't believe I used to liked his videos a long time ago too... At least I wasn't his fans long ago. Everyone makes stupid mistakes.
DeleteI was a preteen. I was dumb back then. I first stumbled upon IG by accident back in 07, I didn't know much about classic video games and I wasn't aware of AVGN or the plagiarism, so I kept watching. Then I discovered AVGN and began to watch both (as my ability to judge gaps in quality was shite considering my age). To be honest, I gradually stopped watching Bores, not by choice, but because his wayward schedule made me forget all about him.
DeleteI went back to him years later in 2010 and was totally confused as to what I found entertaining about him. He wasn't funny and knew nothing about his subject matter.
I don't watch either now, so I guess I got bored of the whole angry review trend. I'm just here because I want to see how much longer Bores will last and I'm curious as to how all of this will end. That, and I like the community here).
Even I used to watch his videos unironically. I was young, I was new to the Internet, and I happened to find out about IG before AVGN. Once I discovered the Nerd and learned about Norman Bores' shady practices, I completely stopped watching his crap.
DeleteHonestly, I could care less about poorly told stories, useless characters, and outright stupidity. The reason I refuse to watch his stuff is because of his behavior, plain and simple.
I used to watch IG's videos regularly too back around 2009-2010. Back then I didn't know about the AVGN or the plagiarism accusations. (The first review by James I did see was Mario is Missing / Mario's Time Machine.) Even when I gradually became introduced and entertained by James, I still did enjoy videos that Chris made.
DeleteIt wasn't until 2011 that I became upset with him. Bashing a Kirby game (Epic Yarn) for stupid reasons? Saying Nintendo needs to make a more gritty, adult Legend of Zelda game? I wanted to give Chris the benefit of the doubt by trying to convince myself that these were HIS opinions, but I was unable to, no matter how hard I tried.
Then around October of 2011, I just so happened to stumble onto this blog. After reading some articles from 2009, 2010, and 2011, I realized just how ignorant and idiotic the Irategamer was and asked myself how I used to be entertained by him.
I remember liking his videos when I first saw them, mostly though that was because I was new to the whole internet reviewing phenomenon and was a big AVGN fan at the time (I still like him but my support has subsided over time, same with Nostalgia Critic) and was also just getting into Armake21's stuff. However I soon lost respect for him when I found myself blocked for challenging him (politely) on what I considered to be blatant plagiarism of an AVGN joke, I think it was the "toasty" joke he did in one review. At that point I realised he was only in it for the money, and the SMB2 and TMNT reviews only confirmed that.
DeleteI watched a lot of his early stuff looking for more AVGN type stuff but I wouldn't say I was a big fan. Then I watched his reviews of games like Zombies At My Neighbors and Aladdin and realized the guy has no clue what he is talking about.
DeleteI watched a couple videos and thought he was nothing to write home about, but wasn't sure if all the bile he got was really merited. Oh, how little I knew...
DeleteGuys. Guys guys guys.
ReplyDeleteEarthBound is going up on the Wii U Virtual Console later today! It will be $10 dollars, more than the usual SNES game, but worth it when you consider it goes for $200+ dollars on eBay.
It will also be available in the PAL region, so people over there can legally experience EarthBound for the first time.
Also, Shantae is coming out on 3DS VC today. It's like a rare game extravaganza.
Oh, by the divine YES!
DeleteI'm a HUGE Earthbound fan! I'm even one of those crazy people to have an actual cart. But the one thing I don't have... is a Wii U...
Well, I know the first game I'll be buying on it when I do get one! To other people, if you love RPGs, then you just HAVE to download this one! It's worth every penny.
Seriously, it's one of the best RPGs of all time. No exaggeration!

DeleteI gotta download those games one day...
Why do you have such a huge grudge against the Irate Gamer? Why do you hate him so much? Did he kill your father? I don't get it
ReplyDeleteIf by criticism and reporting counts as a grudge then every single reporter, scientist and inspector holds a grudge.
DeleteI'm sorry, he is not criticising, he is outright insuting. Calling somebody a shithead is not a criticism. And btw, he may have been referring to them both getting their ideas of movies from similar schtick.
Delete"I'm sorry, he is not criticising, he is outright insuting"
DeleteSo let's recap on how you are bringing in your criticism of this site
"Did he kill your father?"
It seems that you also have trouble not putting insults in a criticism. Criticism means judging someone's action or work. Calling someone a shithead is indeed criticism especially since it is followed by a justification of the use of that adjective.
Nope, he didn't killed my father. But we still hate him... this is going to be a really, really long list.
DeleteWhat I meant was that Chris may have meant that he went through the same ideas for a movie as James did, and both the AVGN movie and the IG series 4 have similar themes to that of a movie rather than a web show.
ReplyDelete"both the AVGN movie and the IG series 4 have similar themes to that of a movie rather than a web show."
DeleteI don't understand what you mean here. If you are trying to say that movie idea is easy to come up with then yeah of course you'd be right. But the problem is that Irate Gamer has done nothing to make a movie and as a a result, its not possible for AVGN to take ideas from him. Wanting to make a movie can be a shared trait, but having similar content is impossible. Irate Gamer's statement is a disgusting display of egotism as he is claiming that AVGN is taking stuff from him.
Irate Gamer show Season 4 cannot possibly be a movie and there's no way AVGN would take themes from it. If Season 4 could be considered a movie then it is a horrible movie and a disgusting display of egotism and poor writing. Irate Gamer has already done an episode on ET and AVGN's movie is on ET. I don't see how AVGn could rip or have similar ideas. For what its worth, it is possible to entertain the idea that Chris is referring to someone else entirely, but given Chris's highly predictable nature and his childish one tracked antics, it's obvious who he is referring to.
Don't feed the troll.
DeleteI don't see him as a troll. A troll would comment more often.
DeleteWhy is it that whenever someone has a different opinion they're a troll? Good grief.
DeleteIf you stripped the story-arc stuff from the videos that contain them, just how many minutes of "movie" would it add up to? Maybe twenty? And how would this be presented in theaters? A credits sequence followed by Shadow Lord telling Evil Gamer to do whatever?
DeleteIn contrast, forget ever comparing the AVGN Movie to IG's "arc." The humorous feud between AVGN and Nostalgia Critic yielded about 90 minutes of content altogether, and THAT makes a better movie than any possible edit of the IG canon to date.
FUCK YOOU IRATE GAYMER YOU FAGGOT ASSHOLE-SALAD EATING TURD SHIFTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI like the comedic timing on this comment.
DeleteI think this image fits the situation...
Deletehttp://i3.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/239/102/365.jpg
HEY SKYGAYNNER WHY DONT YOU GO AND GET FUKED BY A AIDS-RIDDEN CACTUS YOU STINKING PIECE OF RAT TURD!!!!
DeleteI BET YOU LOVE THE I RATEGAYMER AND SUCK HIS COOCK EVERY NIGHT WHITT MAYO
You know, I've never really understood why people call Chris gay. I mean I could have swore that being gay is okay in western societies and that westerners are trying to show to the rest of goddamn world that we should be more tolerant of minority groups and cultures which don't actively work to harm society and that this should include groups that may disgust us at a moral level. By doing this we show that morality is what we decide and that they can change at anytime and morals only existed in the first place to guide us when we didn't want to take responsibility. But like everything in this world, it appears that there will always be children who refuse to grow up. Thankfully the Cold war has taught us that despite the stubborn and stupid antics of these children, its only a matter of time until morals change. Children can grow up and those that do are known as heroes.
Delete@lenyendo
DeleteYou're the second troll I've seen on this blog who has strangely brought up sexualized violence in the comments. Whatever floats your boat, I guess.
SO MUCHH FOR ""IRATE GAYMER SUCKS (DICK)"" HUH???
DeleteYOU ASSWIPES ARE AN BBUNCH OF HYPOCRITICAL SHITHEEDS INSTEAD OF SUPPORTING ME YOU SUK IRATE GAYMER PUSSY JUICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We're hypocrities for not supporting you? That's hilarious. As you can see this is what I would call a harmless troll. It's funny to read and you know damn well he's not taking this seriously just by looking at it.
DeleteWhoa, he's using all caps. Must be dealing with a bad ass here. All caps means he's really serious!
DeleteSay what you will about guys like Fwank and Ben, atleast that practiced some amount of subtlety. This guy doesn't even bother with that, he just flips on the Caps Lock and goes to town.
DeleteI'd give him a -2/10 on the trolling scale, he really should try harder.
@Mr.Kill Ultra: OK, I'll admit that actually was some pretty funny timing there.
DeleteAlso, "WHITT MAYO" is the funniest thing I've read in some time.
He seems like a lot of 13 year olds on youtube. Get angry and think it's mature to make gay jokes and turn on the caps. Also, Mayo?
Delete@Skyrunner14 Too high, I give him -10/10.
DeleteBOOZU-me wa kusottare da zo.
ReplyDeleteThat is my new take on "Bores is an asshole". To be fair, my first reaction was, "Oh, you", in an almost cheery tone of voice. His claims are so poor that their more amusing than insulting now.
Ok, Youtube is annoying today. Anyone else noticing that after you play a vid it takes you to anotherone? Anynone know how to disable it?
ReplyDeleteThere's something that has been floating around in my head for a while, and I feel like asking everybody here what they think.
ReplyDeleteIs it possible that IG got the idea for calling 2013 "his year" after Nintendo's executive producer, Satoru Iwata, declared 2013 as "the year of Luigi"? What do you all think?
So far, Nintendo has lived up to its word with a bunch of Luigi-based games (Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, New Super Luigi U, Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, etc.) while IG has uploaded very little content, much less than his previous five years.
To be fair, IG didn't build a whole campaign around crowing that it's his year. It was a casual comment at the end of one of his fan address videos that are clearly half ad-libbed from a half-memorized list of bullet points. Knowing Chris, he likely just thought "this is my year" sounded nice, so he thought he'd throw it in without considering any context or meaning to it.
DeleteHm, I wonder what happen DynamiteNinja? Haven't seen him lately.
ReplyDeletehttp://theirategamer.com/2013-comic-con-batman-arkham-origins-new-assassin-copperhead-seriously/
ReplyDeleteWell, Chris is officially a misogynistic prick. Now, I know Copperhead is hardly one of the greatest members of Batman's rogues gallery and the guy had become little more than a second rate Killer Croc lately (which is pretty bad) but this new female version does look very interesting and a good revamp of an otherwise forgettable villain.
He also says that he'll be "a bit miffed" if they put her in the main Batman comic book series (because Geoff Johns said that the new Copperhead would be adapted into DC's current comics), which is pretty moronic as well considering he has no idea how cool or lame she'll be.
Also, he's still complaining about Legend of Zelda not being gritty enough, saying he feels like he's "playing something for kids".
My only complaint is she's basically Chesire. But We will see as she as only just appeared. Still not as bad as New 52 Harley Quinn. And really bores? Are you still on that? GO FRIGGIN PLAY TWILIGHT PRINCESS IF U WANT A GRITTY ZELDA!!! Seriously, he says nintendo is gritty and yet he gushed about mega man? UGH!!!
DeleteI have a lot to say about both articles.
DeleteI'll post it tomorrow, and if Bores sticks to his "no weekends" policy, that's when you'll expect new "Attempts the News" posts from now on.
@BatDanNight: Yeah, I figured they'd make great material for your articles :P
DeleteTBH though I'd feel a little ripped off if I didn't come across something idiotic every time I went to his site.
Understandable. There are some articles I didn't bother to write about as he didn't actually do much wrong, or even anything wrong.
DeleteSometimes he just actually reports the news without trying to be funny.
So Bores also talked about the latest trailer for Sonic Legends and wonders why sonic turns into a music note. Never mind that powers are the wisps from Sonic Colors. You know, ONE OF THE SONIC GAMES BORES REVIEWED BEFORE!!!
Deleteif i didn't hate bores for being an outright liar and having no idea what he's talking about yet assuming his word is the truth, i'd hate him for being a horrible misogynist asshole who objectifies women unfairly and unnecessarily and treats them like shit. jesus god.
ReplyDeleteSo I've been noticing that Hladnik hasn't been commenting on his channel anymore. Chris has been leaving messages there telling him all sorts of things, like how his sister is pregnant, the thing about his video game, among other things.
ReplyDeleteHe also got pissed off enough at me to say that he wasn't going to speak to me again, stating that all the proof I offered that proved him wrong was all lies and that I was delusional.
