Continuing from Part 1 (please see that first)

By this point I trust we're all familiar with Pokemon Go, and a few of you are probably just as sick of hearing about it as I am. I understand people get excited and passionate about things they love and I support that. Yet when for a month straight I've been seeing topics, posts, images, articles and even a criminal using it for a cheap plug.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=vwaiyj…

It begins to get a bit on my nerves. If you love the game, keep on playing but grant me this little rant to vent some steam please.

Phone app crazes are not exactly a new thing. When you consider Angry Birds, Cut the Rope, Fruit Ninja, Candy Crush and Flappy Bird were once also the talk of the town with social media. Yet attach an ageing and easily marketable series by today's standards to the concept, and you suddenly "become more popular than pornography" according to some deluded people. I think given the choice between waxing my carrot to Nikki Benz and Harmony Bliss, or walking around a public place, barging into establishments to catch a fictional creature to gain social media brownie points... I'll take the porno over phone apps thank you very much.

Yet having this opinion seems to bring about a level of hostility most common amongst social activists. A lot of aggressive shouting, resentment, hate speech and being called a Trump Supporter. I really think Donald Trump should replace Adolf Hitler in the increasingly irrelevant Godwin's Law argument, since that mother fucker is blamed for everything from the crusades to your toast landing butter side down.

But let's keep things fair. Pokemon Go has some really stupid detractors. I'm not talking about those who are either have no interest in it or feeling mift at the over hyping of it. I'm talking about the usual suspects coming out of the woodwork and using it for cheap publicity. Such as BlackLivesMatter kicking up a fuss and calling the game "racist" as they do with everything. Because Arceus forbid we focus on something that isn't about supposed racism for three fucking seconds! As well as The Young Turks continuing to prove they have no fucking clue what they're talking about.

Cenk: Right?

Or perhaps the old school Pokemon Fans who honestly believe that these kids cannot play Go and that it's made for them. It's like the bizarro world scenario of the Ghostbusters Movie, in that the fan base hasn't actually got a point and is full of shit. I don't have enough room in this rant to cover all the religious fanatics (from Bible Thumpers to Suicide Bombers) making up their own BS surrounding a children's game. And people say I'm being unreasonable?

Yes, I fully agree with you that those who are "big old meanies trying to spoil your fun!" are complete killjoys with comments such as "you should get a life!" (that old chestnut) and they should be mocked. Yet when I hear people tell me "you should stop making assumptions about us!" I find it very telling when their retort is to call those who appose them "Old, religious, Trump supporting football fans!" No that's not how it works, you cannot have your cake and eat it.

Not liking a over hyped phone app with more issues that Spider-Man has nothing to do with liking Football, being religious or supporting a man you may end up eating alot of crow IF he becomes President. In fact, let me count the factors into why I alone (not speaking for you) do not like this App.

#1 - I hate Mobile Phone Culture.
A large section of my utter disdain for Pokemon Go is rooted in my reasonable hatred for Mobile/Cell Phones and the cliched argument people spew at me when they tell me I CANNOT live my life without a phone. I love this single argument they thrown at me.

"WHAT IF YOU GET LOST IN THE WOODS?"

1: I am very skilled at exploring the outside world and have ventured into alot of forest terrain and have successfully navigated my way out. No GPS required.

2: It is impossible to get "lost" in the woods. Walk in a single direction for long enough and you reach the other side.

3: Considering I'm a country boy (fuck you and your inner cities) I'm more likely to run into a Cow jerking off in a Horses mouth that running into a wood I have yet to explore. If that happens I refer you to point 2.

4: Desist with your shitty arguments before I am forced to install your phone into your gaping asshole!

When I'm talking to people at dinner or at a Cafe, and they have there face buried into their phones. I find that highly rude and would like them to stop that. So adding into the fact I regard Mobile Phone Culture in the same camp as pedophiles and terrorists, you can see how a phone app is the last thing I want to try out.

#2 - Praise for achieving nothing.
Telling me "it's getting us outside and excising" isn't really an argument. When you're supposed to do that anyway. Good on Nintendo for getting people off their arses and daresay... OUTSIDE!!! But it's kind of funny when people didn't want to do this for years when their parents or schools wanted them to, but only do it now because of Pokemon! But I don't need a Phone or a Phone App to achieve those things when I already do that every week. It's called "going to work!"

#3 It's a fad. Stop denying it.
Gangnam Style.
Ice Bucket Challenge.
Harlam Shake.
Watch me whip.
Batmaning.
Luigi's Death Stare.
Get Down.
Slender.
FNAF.
Undertale.
Minecraft.
Dat Boy.
Expand Dong.

Shall I go on?

At the end of the day, nothing you or I can say can argue that this thing is successful (until the recent stock drop) and people seem to be happy with it. My main issue is my comments were lumped in with the preachy kill joys no doubt working on a Fantasy Football League (I seriously have no idea what that is) and felt like voicing my disdain about it. I got tired of seeing it plastered everywhere I go. Before you say it, if it was something I liked I'd STILL be sick of seeing it everywhere. For example I got tired of the over hyping that happened with FNAF and Undertale. Throw in people getting hurt or behaving like man babies about it and you have the recipe for a truly irritating trending topic.

I've pointed this out before, I don't hate Pokemon, but for my experiences the series hasn't been exciting since Platinum or been socially relevant since Halo 1. I plan on spending December with Sun/Moon and Pokemon Go isn't going to change that, it'll just mean having to avoid alot of shit on Facebook and YouTube for awhile.

But the app is selling like a cure for aids and the new game is winning it's core audience over. Mind you they could just draw a Pikachu onto a bag and people would still eat it u....

Do Marvel plan on having any white men in their comics?

Spider-Man's a black Latino.
Captain America is black.
Thor is a woman.
Hulk is Asian.
Wolverine is now X-23.
Ms.Marvel's a Muslim.
And Nova is a Latino.

Now you can argue some of those are good and have had a positive impact sure. Yet the news that Iron "Man" is now a 15 year old black girl called Riri Williams has left alot of us scratching our heads. Iron "Man" is a confusing title for a girl to have. It was questionable with Thor (which is a NAME not a title) but this is even worse. You'll recall with my Ms.Marvel reactions I stated that "the story is more important than the character" and I firmly hold to that belief. Yet with Marvel it's more about the characters gender or who they fuck at night than the story. I'm not too bothered by Iron Man taking a leave of absence and a friend comes in for this an idea done before. Further proving Marvel haven't had an original thought since the Reagan years.

A big problem I have with Marvel lately is that it's no longer about stories or character growth. It's now about headlines. Headlines to gain attention and potential new readers. Yet if the comic sales numbers are any indication, then people simply Aren't taking the bait. If Riri ends up being a new partner or friend to Tony then I don't have a problem with that. My issue stems from new characters who haven't earned the right suddenly are THE established character. A little thing I call "The Rodimus Prime Effect!"

We'll find out if she's any good or not, so stay tuned for possible further comment.

While the other part of the news is that Doctor Doom is also.... Iron Man?

Okay now I'm confused.

I've always said Doctor Doom should be an Iron Man villain or involved in his comic series, but this isn't what I had in mind. So we have a 15 year old girl as Iron "Man" and now Victor Von Doom as Iron Man. You see why I'm confused? I'm not entirely sure what Marvel are trying to do these days. I might immigrate over to DC Comics with all my other friends or look into that Batman/TMNT series. Marvel has gone the way of MTV. Self obsessed liberals who want to pander to minorities by way of telling you white people and Donald Trump are evil. Gimmicky decisions and clickbait reveals that people are not falling for anymore.

I await to hear the news that Venom's new host is a transgender, bisexual, Irish Muslim boy called Hillary.

Next.

InfoWars Vs The Young Turks.
A group of misinformed, unreasonable halfwits who sit in the echo chamber of a delusional manbaby.... And the other is run by Alex Jones.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-HP8y…

I gotta admit, watching these clowns going at it was fucking priceless. I used to be a fan of The Young Turks back around 2012. Yet when they transformed into "Liberal Fox News" with front man Cenk Uygur creating an echo chamber for himself with giggly sidekick Ana Kasparian peddling his shite I couldn't stomach it anymore. I may have stopped watching but they obviously have alot of fans, even if that number is shrinking as time goes by. I never bothered to comment on their BS but I said to myself "wouldn't it be great if somebody took a massive shit in their echo chamber?"

Well I guess paranoid madman and amusing psychopath Alex Jones has become something of a champion to those tired of TYT's bullshit. Just so we're clear, I regard Alex Jones as a long lost member of the Looney Tunes. A humanoid cartoon and is very entertaining to watch. I don't agree with his views or policies but by God is he an entertaining mother fucker. Apart from some of Paul Joesph Watson's vids, I regard InfoWars as a work of satire. Nothing they say has fact and should be dismissed but by extension I hold the same views of The Young Turks so I'm don't really have a side in all this. I just like laughing at clowns pretending to be journalists.

So Jones busts onto the set and it seems all is peaceful. He's giving some jokey comments and they appear to be above it all. Humoring him and going about business as normal. You know something that the Left appears to be.

Progressive and Mature.

Yet it gets pretty heated when another right wing pundit Roger Stone jumps into the fray. Suddenly Cenk goes from "progressive and mature" to "angry, shouty and childish!"

Watching TYT yelling at Alex Jones while becoming subject to the very things they report about, is like watching a Social Justice Warrior being a sexist bigot. An amusing irony car crash that you cannot stop watching. I could not stop laughing as the Left and Right finally came together and nobody could tell them apart. Shouty, delusional bullshit artists with little to no difference between them. Even Ana through out some "fat shamming comments" at Jones by calling him a fat fuck. Making them no better than the people they proclaim are wrong and immoral. Which is doubly delicious when Ana has gone on record to say fat shamming is wrong, yet here she is calling someone a fat fuck.

The Young Pots and Kettles.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0k3-X…

It's also very strange to see Jones calm and smiling while TYT are screaming and swearing.... You know, like how I normally picture Alex Jones. So like any bland corporate product, they tried to damage control the situation and slander "the bad guy" yet the footage of the event is against them. They were name calling, childish, spitting and behaving like... Again, like Alex Jones. The damage was done and the Sharks smelled the blood.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSBenf…
www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPpt7-…
www.youtube.com/watch?v=spMiXk…

It doesn't excuse Jones in the slightest don't get me wrong. He did act completely unprofessional and security should have immediately escorted him off. However, that doesn't excuse Cenk and TYT for their behavior. They could have just sat there, waited for security to do their job and carried on, but no. Jimmy Door chimed in with spitting in the mans face like a fucking child, making any thing Alex did wrong minor or irrelevant in comparison. A degree of professionalism is needed and that goes out the window when you're spitting in a mans face like a child.

Also another problem is that this wasn't a private set. It was an open conference with the major Internet news networks. Anybody could have jumped on stage, shouted "Fuck her right in the pussy!" and bolted.

Now I have an image of Alex Jones screaming "Fuck her right in the pussy" at Ana and I'm laughing all over again.

I tell you what, 2016 hasn't dissapointed so far. Sure far too many celebrity deaths (didn't hear too many this month) but the amount of failures, set backs and outright karma being dished out to those in need of it has been nothing short of priceless.

Which brings me at last to the main topic of the month for many of us aging Nerds.

The aftermath of Ghostbusters 2016.

"The Meh Heard Around the World ... well, except for China."

I'm not going to waste too much time on this surprisingly. Because, really what is left to say on this subject? Most of what I said here will take care of the bulk of this rant.
randomdc3.deviantart.com/art/7…

I haven't seen an aftermath this entertaining since Brexit and Mighty No 9's abysmal launch. 2016 sure is the gift that keeps on giving. So the outcome we all predicted came true and Ghostbusters 2016 was a complete and utter financial bomb at the box office. While I await the 28 Midnight's Edge videos to come of this result, I can offer some closing thoughts to finally close the book on this whole mess.

A movie that is essentially an hour and fifty seven minute version of this.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=icOM7E…

A movie that was filled to the brim with needless product placement, unfunny jokes, cringe worthy cameos and was a complete an utter farce. The fact it opened to empty cinemas being the funniest thing about this comedy. Last time I checked, the movie failed to make back it's budget. Making those claims of "a sequel in the works" utterly fruitless and laughable now.

It's not all good news, for what happened with Lesley Jones was NOT called for. These people do realize that resorting to racist tweets, you're playing right into Sony's hands and proving them right? It was utterly disgusting and should not have happened. Also confusing was the banning of conservative blogger Milo Yiannopoulos when you consider what he said, versus what was said BEFORE and AFTER he made his comments didn't warrant a life time ban.

As I said in the comic, Twitter's own hypocrisy could fill an entire page and rant on it's own.

How Sony can even attempt to claim this was a success shows you how delusional and desperate they've become in recent years. I think the movie was doomed right from the start. I'll never understand why Hollywood remakes movies that are good, when they should remake movies that are bad. For me, the whole point of a reboot is to correct mistakes or to start over. WHY would you want to start over something that was good and highly successful? I mean look at Star Wars for a second. They knew people would be furious if they went back and rebooted that story, so they decided to continue events, honor the past while setting foundations for the future.

I still feel Star Wars should have been left alone, but the end result wasn't as bad as I had feared. Speaking of Star Wars, I'll close on this open message to the following imbecilic buffoons.

Sony. Amy Pascal and Paul Fieg.

This, is Rey.

vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/&…

She is the star of the recent Star Wars movie, The Force Awakens. It was announced that Star Wars would now have a female lead character.

The Force Awakens went on to gross A SHIT TON OF MONEY and is beloved by the Star Wars community. Would you like to know how they achieved this?

My own personal views of her to one side, they didn't beat the audience over the head with her vagina or paint any other character to be inferior to her because of said vagina. They didn't belittle the audience and fan base with "a message" or put out a cringe worthy trailer. They trusted the audience would accept her and respected the franchise AND it's core audience.

It's a simple concept when you think about it. But you cocked it up spectacularly and you have no one to blame but yourselves.

I await the news of Amy Pascall's termination.

But that brings to an end my thoughts on Ghostbusters 2016 and hopefully, the last we'll ever hear about it.

They knew people would be furious if they went back and rebooted that story, so they decided to continue events, honor the past while setting foundations for the future.

I still feel Star Wars should have been left alone, but the end result wasn't as bad as I had feared. Speaking of Star Wars, I'll close on this open message to the following imbecilic buffoons.

Sony. Amy Pascal and Paul Fieg.

This, is Rey.

She is the star of the recent Star Wars movie, The Force Awakens. It was announced that Star Wars would now have a female lead character.

The Force Awakens went on to gross A SHIT TON OF MONEY and is beloved by the Star Wars community. Would you like to know how they achieved this?

My own personal views of her to one side, they didn't beat the audience over the head with her vagina or paint any other character to be inferior to her because of said vagina. They didn't belittle the audience and fan base with "a message" or put out a cringe worthy trailer. They trusted the audience would accept her and respected the franchise AND it's core audience.

It's a simple concept when you think about it. But you cocked it up spectacularly and you have no one to blame but yourselves.

I await the news of Amy Pascall's termination.

But that brings to an end my thoughts on Ghostbusters 2016 and hopefully, the last we'll ever hear about it.
