    ...and Wicked Prayer. Whole lot's up on YouTube now.

    ...well, most of it is, anyway. Can't believe City of Angels got hit with a copyright claim. Honestly.

    So hey, Skyfall's out on BluRay today! To celebrate, I rank all 23 Bond films (and the 2 unofficial ones) in order from worst to best, just because I can.

    Here's the first part - 25 to 21. Otherwise known as the 'strangled noise from the back of my throat' films.

    The individual parts will only be on YouTube, FYI. I'll be combining all 5 parts into one long video and uploading it to Blip at the weekend. I just ran out of time to do it all today.

    Here's Part Two - 20 - 16. There's a few controversial choices there.

    Only a couple of minutes late, here's Part Three - .

    EDIT: Oh, you are taking the fucking piss. CONTENT MATCHED FOR A FUCKING TRAILER?
    (It's the Quantum of Solace one, FYI)

    EDIT2: OK, here's Part Three without the footage from the trailer.

    Well it's a new Youtube feature. Because everybody hates advertisement the companies save us from seeing ads for their products. Aren't they nice.
    Well I guess the same will happen for Skyfall and maybe even Casino Royale.
  • edited February 2013
    Probably. I guess we'll see when I get to them.

    Might take a while because they are awesome.
  • edited February 2013
    Well there's only two parts left to go. If I can get over this bloody cold, I'll get 'em both done by today.
  • edited February 2013
    Part Four - 10-006 (d'ya see what I did there?)
  • edited February 2013
    So
    Skyfall, The World Is Not Enough and Casino Royale
    in the Top 5. I guess the best movies in the series also have the best title tracks.

    There are no spoilers. Everyone should watch your videos!

    Dude! Spoilers!

    I never got into the Bond films too much for some reason (even though I'm a fan of action movies), but I love the music.

    And you're absolutely right that Madonna's Die Another Day is horrid. I was going to buy the Bond anniversary album on iTunes, but ended up buying a different compilation on Amazon that had Moby's remix on it in place of Die Another Day.

    I'v only seen 2 Bonds. :P Though Skyfall is amazing I could watch that 100 times.

    I really think you might all of them.
  • edited February 2013
    It really does stagger me when people say they've only seen 2 or so Bond films. Why?

    And here's my Top 5.

    Figured out a way around Sony's oppressive copyright claims. Can you spot what it is?

    I see what U did there.

    In case you don't feel like watching 5 separate videos, now you can just watch one really long one.

    Blip and YouTube. For some reason Sony don't like the Quantum of Solace TITLE. *shrug*

    I don't think anyone liked that title.

    So I'm working hard (or hardly working, hardy ha) on my next review, and as a last second sort-of thing, I've decided to take what was originally going to be the opening section of the review, in which I talk about the 3D Revolution, and release it separately as a sort of opener to the entire sub-genre of games, since I'm going to be focusing on quite a few of them according to my list of planned reviews.

    So here's my look at the negative side of the 3D Revolution. AKA: the 3D DEvolution.

    God I'm witty.
  • edited March 2013
    Blip version of the 3D Devolution.

    And here's the full review of Simon the Sorcerer 3D. Was planning on putting it on Blip, but they only allow one upload per day, so just this once it's on YouTube first. JUST. THIS. ONCE.
  • edited March 2013
    I need to go through all of your reviews, but this should be a review you get famous for.

    Oh well, you can't win em all.
  • edited March 2013
    Finally got round to uploading the review on Blip. Enjoy!

    Oh, and I'm not done with Simon3D. Not by a long shot.

    EDIT: Just realized that YouTube didn't like me using The Bobby Fuller Four over the Rap Sheet montage, so I've had to remove it. There's now a two-minute sequence in complete and utter silence. FUCK. YOU. YOUTUBE.

    Odd thing is, it had no problem with me using a slightly shorter clip of the song in a different video...

    Hey guys.

    Well,, as much as I loved doing this show (which isn't saying much, editing the things together is an absolute bitch), unfortunately I've had an increase in hours at work which means I simply won't have the time to keep doing this.

    But don't think this means the show is over - oh no. Because my number one fan is my cousin Peter, and once I told him about the situation he immediately leapt up and begged me to let him do it in my stead.

    So I figured "what the hell?".

    And so, presenting the new host of Madisun's Arc: Peter Phillips!

    He's already told me he wants to tackle all the many, many problems with The Lord of the Rings films, so I know you'll be in good hands.

    It's been a great ride and I hope you'll stick with the show. Thanks for all the good times.

    You are so mean to your true #1 fan. Me. :(
  • edited March 2013
    Dawww... love you too, buddy.
  • edited April 2013
    I approve of his shirt.
  • edited April 2013
    I should hope so - it's actually mine from one of my Kickstarters. I just let him borrow it for the promo shot.
  • edited April 2013
    Good thing you two have the same athletic build. It looks great on him. Is he also wearing your wrist watch by the way?
  • edited April 2013
    Nope, it's just a similar one.

    And if you think I have an athletic build, then you really are a fool. ;)
  • edited April 2013
    Darth i'll be honest but i'm sorta expecting you just at around 11:59 to shout April Fools :/ I don't know why but this seems like you trying to trick us all :/
  • edited April 2013
    Also Darth: Use this wig in at least one video. This thing looks to good to be dismissed for this.
  • edited April 2013
    Trick you? Why would I do that? Psch.

    Besides, Peter's got some great stuff lined up and I can't wait to hear it. Last I heard, he's got a whole 5 minute rant about how Tom Bombadil got left out of the movies. It's...

    Oh, I can't be bothered with this any more. Yeah, it was a joke. Peter's just me wearing a wig and having shaved my beautiful, beautiful beard. My face is all cold now. :(

    I fully intend to use the wig at some point, it's the whole reason I bought it. I just threw this April's Fools thing together for a quick laugh. I didn't expect to actually fool anyone, but did you at least get a chuckle out of it?

    I almost put a bit of tape round the middle of the glasses, but figured that would be too much.

    R.I.P. Darth's beard. *moment of silence*

    Darth Beard? Now there's a band name if I've ever heard one.

    All joking aside, here's a follow-up to my Simon 3D review that takes a closer look at all the terrible, terrible minigames. Should have been done sooner, but I like procrastinating. Who knew?

    Apologies for the questionable audio in places, I need to stop being distracted while recording!

    The Minigames of Simon 3D - now on YouTube.
