Rapidfire II is proving to get better, I liked the fight scene coupled with the failed chokeslam.
I'm thinking how Mormon Morgan was dealt with could be a new XWays2Y. And i think I'll try it next time one comes around.

I wouldn't let that stop me from going. I'd kill to see LRR live,besides its not like you have to go up to Matt and talk to him before during or after the show. There's plenty of other casts members to talk to even though Matt would still be cool to chat with being one of the more polite and calmer members of LRR.
( =P not that i'm saying the rest of you are crazy and illmannered.....besides morgan)

When I watch that part, in my mind Graham says, "You had me at hello."


YES!!! I had the same exact internal addition! :D

Another one of those fascinating cultural differences I would not have known about without LRR.

They play the entertainer here too, and I'm from Florida.

You may bow.


Which queen are you, though, Maria Amalia of the Two Sicilies or Eugénie de Montijo?


Yes, I agree that this claim requires more information!

Hey, something else I've been wondering...
Where any of these scenes shot a while ago like series2ep1, cus if they weren't, they were recreated damn good.

I don't understand why you guys think Matt is always yelling.
If he'd wanted to, he could have ripped into you, but he didn't. That post was a calm and reasoned request, he wasn't bitching you out or yelling at you, yet everyone assumes he's tearing forty6andtwo a new asshole. I was there when he posted it, his reaction to the Optimus post was a heavy sigh, along the lines of "This again?"

If you're honestly considering not coming to the screening because of that then I'm kind of dissapointed in you, not Matt, because despite what you may think of him, in this instance you're the one making a big deal out of nothing.

Saying "This will make me re-think buying a t-shirt" hurts me. You've clearly shown on the forums that you're a big fan of LRR. We appreciate every fan we have and I seriously don't think you should let something like being told a joke had gotten old (which, it had, sorry) make you re-think (or threaten to) your enjoyment of our site, which is much bigger than Matt, or Transformers jokes.


Again, because this is apparently unclear when crewmembers are talking, I am "talking" completely calm, I'm not even a little angry... just kind of tired of people getting up in Matt's face.

Great rapidfire as always, James getting choke slammed = gold

and I saw Johnny in the credits list, expecting graham to explain something using various objects just like in rapidfire 1.. but sadly this wasn't the case.

There is no way I can respond to this thread or defend myself without it being taken the wrong way.

Peace, I'm out.

Honestly Graham if you're gong to side with Matt about this I guess it makes sense, he is ur friend and part of your crew. If he was more tactful he would have sent a PM to me stating he didnt think it was funny and to please stop, I would have respected that at least. If it really started bothering him a while back, he should have said something awhile back. It's fine, you can be dissapointed in me, hell you could boot me from the forums and ban me from attending your LRR Live stuff, life will go on for all. I'm sorry you feel that me being bothered by Matt's lack of tactfulness in dealing with retarted fans is grounds to be dissapointed in me. The whole reason I started it in the first place was simply when I was sitting around listening to the podcast that had my question being asked on the Ask LRR Thread (which i waited up to listen to), before James even got a chance to finish reading the coments I made, Matt jumped the gun "peaked the levels" and started freaking out about who was who etc. I found that to be quite rude. And honsetly I kept referencing the subject to get [i]any/[i] response from him about it in the first place, a simple "haha its not funny" right away would have sufficed, however with no response from anyone over it, I felt like either no one saw it or no one cared. I'm not trying to get up in the Matt's face. I know where he works, and if I really wanted to get in his face I would do it real life, however I'm not usually a person to do something like that. Understand some of us aren't as funny as you guys are, and maybe take little more care and attention when you go to chastise a person for a bad joke. Maybe use the private message system thats available on the forums. Thanks.

I did PM you.
Again, you are making a big deal out of nothing. None of us were upset with you, but you're getting very bent out of shape. I'm not going to ban you for that, come on.

You need to cool it, it's all good.

Well, as a veteran member of the forums, I will speak up for Matt and say that he has changed a lot since the time that I joined the forums, and I definitely think that he has grown up a lot, especially with moving in with Graham at the new apartment, which meant moving out of his parent's basement (which did sorta look like an apartment).

He does do stuff that makes him an easy target sometimes, but even he knows it when that happens which is a long ways away from what he used to be like. I think the crew will back me up on this. But also, I have noticed that his swearing on podcasts, while it used to be a running gag, has pretty much ceased, which was one thing that they all kept telling him to change.

In fact, aside from Graham and Paul, I think Matt is one of the most devoted members to LRR, seeing as he asked my help in making up a press kit, and has been studying ways to create a business plan for LRR to make it self-sufficient.

So, in short, I like Matt and think that people give him a hard time a bit too often.

Okay this subject should be over now, but one more thing. I wasn't trying to give the guy a hard time, I was simply being retarted and unfunny. This is why LRR makes the videos and I'm on this side of the computer screen watching them instead. Speaking of computer screens, you should see my computer setup, I should take a picture of it sometime. Is there a thread for that? I seem to recall hearing on a Podcast a while ago about pics of the crew's desks etc, but is there a place to post our PC setups?

Just to give Matt some good comments.


Matt your a cool guy. Your polite and funny.


Your acting in some of the finest of the crew even though people always misinterpret it and I do hope you keep up the good work.

That's still broken.

Considering how nuts people went last week for the camerawork on the political pundits shot, I'm surprised no ones mentioned it on the "Ssh Guy" scene. I'm quite pleased with that subtle track upwards while following Morgan.

But that still doesn't answer the burning question. Which Victorian-era queen of France are you?

Fun fact, in researching the matter, because I wasn't sure if France had any queens during Victoria's reign, it turns out France can't/couldn't legally have a female monarch in charge, only queen consorts.

I raised that very question to graham last night when I wrote the post in question. I wasn't certain that France had a queen at the time - but I thought queen was funnier than king, so I left it be.

It was a good choice. If nothing else it made me go learn about the French monarchy for an hour. I should clarify that there were three French queens in the Victorian-era. I left one out of Graham's choices because she was only queen for 20 minutes from the time she became queen consort to the time Louis XIX abdicated.
