It's going to be tough I think to have the fanbase he has had, still in tact, whenever that movie gets finished. Honestly, his ship may well already have sailed, probably should have started the movie production a year ago.

    I agree with this

    even though the AVGN movie is probably going to have some funny parts, its mostly going to include bad acting/amateur production values and a ton of Mike Matei scenes that will drag on that maybe 5 people will find funny.

    The AVGN was so popular because he tapped into our childhood anger, has he forgotten that?. He had the same gripes about the same games we played and wanted to like,yet couldn't because they sucked so bad. Him reviewing stuff like Cheetahmen makes little sense as most of us never played that game growing up.He is now trying to create anger instead of it being genuine.

    I dont blame him for milking this AVGN as long as he can as he does make money with it. I just dont want to endure more Matei scenes and complaining about bad games we never even played going into the future. It already looks like that however

    In case you didn't hear, he announced he's still doing the show, so I wouldn't worry about some movie that's like 2-3 years off.. And he's hiring actors for the movie, so looks like Mike won't be in it.

    Mike Matei is great and I hope he stars in the movie. He was so funny in the Batman episodes as the Joker.

    Matei is not so swift an actor anyway, too much foul language.

    OK, we're both over analyzing here but I'm going to say this anyway.

    Had he continued to do the same games we all played but found frustrating over and over (I'll never forget spending money on Gotcha! The Sport and dying I couldn't get that money back) we'd grow tired of it.

    I think he's popular because he's the only one I've ever seen that comes across as even remotely professional. The angry schtick works because watching a guy review an old game on it's own is boring in and of itself. The persona allows the reviewer to have some fun with things.

    Every other persona I've watched (including those that just be themselves) comes across like a guy in his basement reviewing games. AVGN came across like a TV show about a guy in his basement reviewing games.

    Just my two cents (and as I said, way too over analyzed for such a simple thing).
    Time will be when the broadest river dries
    And the great cities wane and last descend

    I really enjoyed the "Making Of" video. A lot more goes into making a video game review then I knew.

    Funny how he calls the flying baseball stadium a flying baseball field. Twice.

    It would be nice if he actually knew how to use the C64 before he made the video. He complains about the games "not working" when really he just doesn't know how to load them properly.

    Also, there's a pretty decent port of the arcade game that I guess he's not aware of... I think it was PAL only though, so it might not have worked anyways. In fact, that european cassette he has might have had major timing issues too.

    I had the MS DOS version of that Turtles games and the Electric Crayon "Turtles World Tour" program. They came in a package together, with maybe a comic book, can't remember.
