This show from the guys a Cinemassacre is okay, but not on par with the other things they do.

Warning: Spoilers
This show is another set of episodes one can find at the website Cinemassacre. The site also features many monster movie reviews, film documentaries and the most well known thing that comes from the site is The Angry Video Game Nerd. There is also a show called Board James on it as well that fits in with this one and AVGN. This one though is the weakest of the three shows I have seen (there is also something called over analyzers). That is not to say it is bad, most of the problems that stem from this show is the fact that a lot of the episodes are incredibly short. There will be times you think the ad that precedes it is longer. Still, it is funny for the time it is with us as James Rolfe (AVGN, Board James, BS man) does a very good angry individual.

The concept of the show is simple. The BS man rants about something that is in his opinion, well BS. That is not to hard to understand now is it. James is the only character of this show as there is no Mike Matei doing Spider-man, Bugs Bunny and a plethora of other characters he has done on AVGN or as Motherf----r Mike on Board James. No, with these you mainly get just James going on a rant, though in a later episode he reveals the character and it is surprisingly disturbing. This one seems the most simple of the shows I watch, nothing really that complicated going into the making of it. However, James' BS character is a bit to much like AVGN.

During the shows run he went over a variety of topics such as security stickers on DVDs, to much cream cheese on his bagel, and printers just to name a few. I have to say his one on printers, x-mas and DVD cases had me rolling because they are so true. Many of the earlier episodes were very short, some not even making a minute, however they do get more detailed as the series progressed. I cannot be sure if there are going to be any new episodes of this one when James gets finished with his movie, but there are plenty of more topics out there that would make fine BS episodes.

In conclusion, this is sort of a weaker brother of the AVGN. It is funny, but it just does not differ all that much from AVGN like Board James does. Still, many of the episodes will have you nodding your head as you have probably thought the same thing yourself when encountering a hotel television for instance. So while not on par with Board James and AVGN it is still a funny show to watch, brought to you by the talented people at Cinemassacre.

Great, but could release episodes more frequently.

I like this, it's funny, intelligent and important. You can learn a lot from this. On the other hand, it really lacks episodes, there are tons of subjects this could examine. Also some of the stuff are poor nitpicking like the episode about the buns with too much cheese filling... Just don't buy those brand buns, I'm sure there are other brands of buns which have less cheese filling...

Home Made Charm

What's more hilarious than hearing someone rant and rave about the mundane frustrations we as a species collectively share daily? Oh I don't know maybe if the character in question has bull-feces for a face. This series has a very home made feel to it with some videos being little more than slideshows of pictures, but that's not really what we come here for, what we come for is the hilarious narration of a guy that just cant take it anymore. He's bursting at the seams with annoyance at these trivial things that most people can relate to. We've all been boiled to the point of exploding over something simple but man this guy really knows how to dissect it. You start to wonder if in real life he's really this misanthropic, but from what I can jest, nah this guy is actually incredibly wholesome. This huge contrast only draws more highlight to the character played and adds some merit to his acting skills. This might be my favorite Cinemassacre series purely for the relatability. It can turn things that you don't really ever think about into something of catastrophic proportions. The way he just rips and tears into the people that designed these faulty apparatuses is entertaining to watch and I find myself going through the whole catalog from time to time, as they are very short and can be consumed quickly and easily without much thought. Where I might be afraid to say something to a customer service person for fear of being deemed a jerk at least I can always live vicariously through The BullS**t-Man. A hilarious segment that I wish there was more of

You know what's BS? Not just this but all -new- Cinemassacre.

Anyone remember that YKWBS episode where where James - or should I say Gaymes, says "Soon they'll make you sit through an add -before- you can get into an elevator" or something to that effect. Now, CineAssacre makes us sit through several adds (and one in video!) before we can watchi their content.

An add where there's more work seemingly put into than the actual video we are about to see... Pathetic.

I'm not one of those Reddit Neckbeards that think's James owes me or that Screenwave is the new Nazi Party or whatever - but... being highly disappointed by -all- CM output in the past 2-3 years, I will not sit through this any more...

Cinemassacre has become the LJN of pop-cultre and now with the dramatic (and censored) "You know what's BS?", just like the New Nerd Episodes, this show has become BS and I will not support any new Cinemassacre, it's gotten that bad.
