Anyone here ever watch SomeCallMeJohnny on Youtube? I find his version of Tails Doll very amusing, and so does my Girlfriend. You can tell how that went

why not watch a review on The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog, sounds like a great use of time to me

Watching X-Men 97 be like

This is a redraw of a drawing I did about 2-3 years ago.

That is me hugging a YouTuber named SomecallmeJohnny. SomecallmeJohnny is a game reviewer, he's a huge fan of Sonic, Metroid and Final Fantasy. I watched him when I was 9. I loved watching him review games that I'm a fan of and games that I never heard of like Metroid and Resident Evil.

I wanted to become a YouTuber like him so at age 9, I made a YouTube channel where I played Sonic 3 and I did one game review video, Sonic Colors for the Wii. I wanted to do game reviewing videos, (even tho I made only one and I will probably never make a video where I review a game I like or hate) I later realized that they're hard to do and I wouldn't be good at reviewing games. He's the main reason why I do YouTube videos, still to this day and I still watch him. I have been watching him for 10 years.... thank you, SomecallmeJohnny 🥹🥹

Thoughts on the youtuber geekcritique? He did a lot of sonic retrospectivw trying to look from a more personal and positve perspective that isn't just the typical angry gamer stereotype and also has been a fan since the "classic" days so he has a wider perspective than many kids that do video essays

GeekCritique is an old half-acquaintance of mine. We spent an amount of time growing up in a community known (at first) as The Moogle Cavern, which later was renamed Sonic Eats Rings after the original admin backed away from the community.

I think Josh was just starting up The Geek Critique right as Sonic Eats Rings kind of started burning itself out and growing quiet as we all went our separate ways. I watched a video or two here or there, but never tons of it.

I've talked about that before, over the years. I did not, and to some degree do not watch a lot of other Sonic content on Youtube. A lot of it was reiterating a lot of information I already know (because I was there when it happened) and I'd already formed my own opinions on a lot of that stuff. I did not need somebody else to tell me how things were or what these games were like.

And I have been trying to shake that. Broaden my view. Get out of the echo chamber of my own head. I still don't follow tons of the so-called "SonicTubers", but I did at least subscribe to guys like SomeCallMeJohnny, and, notably, Geek Critique.

And with The Geek Critique in particular I feel like I've been sleeping on his videos too long because, like... yeah, they're really good. To the point where I'm not just watching every single thing he puts out, but I'm occasionally working my way through some of his older videos now, too.

What's interesting to me is that even if he's relentlessly positive about these things (to the point where I believe his pre-TGC username was "PositiveJosh"), it doesn't usually come off as... cloying? Sometimes when people are fighting to be positive about a negative subject, it can feel a bit ignorant or saccharine, and The Geek Critique is good at mostly avoiding that kind of maudlin feeling. I think it's because Josh isn't afraid to point out problems, but he always finds a way to put everything in perspective. Given a couple people have told me I'm cynical and negative, it's a trait I'm a little envious of.

But yeah, he's pretty good at this. If I could get my channel up to around his level of success, I'd be pretty pleased with myself.

Y’all gotta watch SomecallmeJohnny

[derekscorner]

He was talking about Megaman Zero/ZX but something to show anyone next time they say “it makes sense if you just watch this”.

Sonic can breathe whatever he wants

Another BrainScratchComms related comic. This takes place in their first Sonic Colors playthrough. Remember, ladies and gentlemen, Sonic can breathe in space but not underwater

Johnny Speen

[big-funky-tree]

when a youtuber you like has playlists that just completely suck, like a series they made is missing a video or its out of order or has something unrelated in it

is this a thing people worry about or am I just insane

Sonic's 1-UP of Death

This short comic is based on Somecallmejohnny's Sonic 06 100% stream series

[d3vildraws]

I have been hyperfixating over SomecallmeJohnny again as usual so I decided draw fanart of him again.

I am like his biggest fan at this point, I love him so much (platonic obv)
