Really? Have you seen some of the raciest stuff that dude has tweeted? Is this someone the Escapist wants representing them on their and his platform? If you don't believe me go look at all the tweets Bob deleted. There all over the place. I'm sure there will be youtube videos posted about such things so just look for them.

It's an ingenious decision so that they can profit off the controversy.

I'm oddly okay with this, it means I get to watch his slow motion meltdown up front without shitting up my YouTube recommended feed shat up

Well, I don't want him here if he's a racist, but we certainly could do with some more racy material if that's what he's offering. I'm thinking nipple tassles, supposedly edible underwear, maybe a game of dog toy vs sex toy, that sort of thing.

He is? Where is the news announcing this?
In the escapist got bought thread, someone claimed Russ Pitts tweeted this out. I don't do twitter, so I'm going to have to rely on what others say here.


OP: I watched the MovieBob rant about James Gunn that someone linked, someone needs to cut his videos in half. Maybe Russ Pitts can do it, IDK. He has some points, and then uses it to attack people he doesn't like. Similar to a Shapiro, Sarkensian or Sargon. Making an valuable points useless by being hateful

His Marvel Bias and DC/WB Zack Snyder hateboner is certainly going to further test my patience :p

And I disagree with him vehemently on the 2009 adaption of the Christmas Carol movie with Jim Carrey.

He's mean when he talks about the people who voted for trump, calling them stupid and evil, and that he's not sorry anytime their voting choices bring them pain and suffering. That plus an old tasteless joke he's apologised for, and a general distaste for bigoted nerd dudes has led people to try and pretend he's big into eugenics and secretly a nazi by stretching so hard they've pulled something.

also DC fanboys claim he's unfair to dc, rather than accepting the movies are shite, and ignoring the good reveiws he's given to good dc movies.

My stance is they are not the worse thing ever in the history superheroes and cinema, and them being placed on the pedestal of WORSE MOVIE EVER along with me being a DC guy tests me.

I mean I had to endure 5 fucking years of seeing my youtube recommended lists being filled with shit like this:





Anyways DC shit aside, Moviebob is a politcal gasfire. Its gonna be PC Gaming Is Dead and The Expendables -debates all over again.

Nice attempt to downplay the shite he comes out with but when said shite includes gems like this:


I don't have to stretch very far.

your reaching if you want me to read those tweets as wrong or bad. He may not be polite about it, but that doesn't make him wrong. Diversity IS the futre, and white supremacy is holding everyone back.

I mean, we need content.
Bob provides content.
He's also gonna provide a fair few eyes this way.

*Shrugs* I'll just not watch it if I don't like it.

He was one of the site's most prolific and popular content creators so of course they would get him back. I say go for it.

He made fine content when he wasn't letting his favorite pet subjects rule him. Just keep him on a leash this go around, although frankly I don't think he's gonna be able to maintain a professional persona on Twitter. That's Russ' headache though.

Me, I want Shamus and Rath to get their columns back. Also for the reviewers to have their own columns like we had in the ol' days, but Shamus and Rath first.

To claim Bob is racist is exceedingly disingenuous, and to do so says more about you than him. However, he remains a somewhat toxic individual that nobody should want at the forefront of an effort to relaunch a site that already has a reputation for toxicity.
