Auction Shopping // Regulation Supplemental - Patreon Ad-Free
Added 2024-09-01 13:00:11 +0000 UTC
Andrew has found another movie auction and AN EGG all get together to do some shopping. Join them as they pour through pages of props, getting sidetracked along the way with stuff that looks cool from movies they like but are the price tags too hefty for this now independent channel? Whoa is that Crow T. Robot?
Ok.. Firstly. One of you guys have to forward that muppets pin to Elyse Willems.... And then it occurred to me. I think a wierd supplemental with elyse could be fucking amazing. Elyse and Andrew on the same voice call is gold in the making. I'm sure some crazy idea will come up... perhaps... one that needs an impartial (but hilarious) judge?

why do they always in every piece of content that mentions a film just hate every movie ever made ever? everything sucks, no sequel is good, everything "flopped" just everything is bad. especially eric is the most hateful.

In clone wars maybe, but in the movies he had little screen time and lasted like 5 seconds against Palps. I don't even know if they ever say his name in the movies, I didn't know he even existed until I watched clone wars

I like how Eric was making fun of there being a Kit Fisto item, but the character unironically rules

Please use my money to keep bidding on things. I love to content and I’m glad you guys are in a place where you have funds to build up the regulation museum. I don’t understand why people would expect you to switch up from who you have been the whole time. I bet the people complaining about bidding on props loved when you guys were able to get the tuxedo. Don’t change. I was a first member / RT sponsor for close to 10 years, I will continue to support this group for as long as you make content.

I think they explained it pretty well, they have a pretty limited budget, and, while the estimated was quite low, the bids that were already on the items means they probably won't be able to get them anyway and if they can it would be WAY too expensive

You read my mind. I appreciate them, G&G have been making me laugh for 12 years, and I want to keep supporting them & their ability to do so, but yeah I feel like they could've maybe said, "Hey everyone, we're lucky enough to be doing well enough to splurge on something cool, here's what we're thinking". Just not where I imagined my money was going.

I agree with you Hex, the reason I've canceled is I was under the impression that we were supporting people who had recently lost their jobs and needed our support to live and make content for us. I don't need to be paying 10 bucks a month to people who can recklessly spend 2500+ on something that won't contribute to much content.
My comment and all the others expressed which props they'd rather them buy, my comment is the definition of feedback whether I remain a patron or not. I'm not telling other people to unsubscribe, but I have realized I am paying for something that I don't care to contribute to, especially since I don't think their patreon and youtube have differences right now. If my 10 dollars a month is going to a random, blind 2500+ spend every 3 months with no collaboration with the crew or audience then I don't care to spend 10 dollars a month.
With that said, it is their money and I don't care how they spend it, but I'm also allowed to not give them the money... I liked the vid up until the bid was already placed and the auction ended on the 17th of last month. Had the community been involved (especially the patrons), or even the crew deliberated and been more responsible with the money in terms of return for the audience then I would have been fine with the spend. If you gave a child 20 bucks and they bought a 20 dollar shirt and wore it once, you wouldn't give the kid 20 dollars again.

I share your concerns, and voiced as much in my own comment above. However, I think ending support because of this video (while entirely your decision to make) is akin to, "I was feeling better, so I stopped taking my medicine".
I think the better discourse is to share our feedback with the crew and give them the opportunity to react. From what I've read, is it correct to say you feel that, "As a Patron, I feel that my contributions should go towards producing content, and I feel that using Patreon funds to bid on these props may not be sufficiently contributing towards content"?
If I've properly understood your reaction, I think the most productive thing to do as Patrons is to share as much with the crew and suggest what we would like to see instead. I mentioned above, but my personal suggestion would be a live-action, cheap recreation of the Snake Eyes trailer featuring Eric in the suit (and maybe the other guys playing the other characters from the movie).
What would you like to see them do to make the prop purchases into entertaining content worthy of your contributions?
Hex
2024-09-03 13:03:55 +0000 UTC
Not implying they are. In fact, I specifically called out that I have faith in their decision making with all of their combined experience in the content creator space. Its not our place as Patrons to get to police how they spend their money, but we do have the ability to at any point decide if we want to continue our support, and its for that reason that I decided to pass along the feedback.
As I also mentioned, my personal support isn't wavering, but I AM concerned for the optics of the video and that if they do a series like this some Patrons' support might. As other comments have echoed, I think we just want to know how these things will contribute to an audio podcast. So few ideas were mentioned in the video aside from a photo shoot with Eric in the Snake Eyes suite.
Instead of focusing on the negative here, let's look to how these props could be incorporated into more content. I, for one, would love to see them reshoot the Snake Eyes trailer with Eric in the suite to promote the release of the Let's Watch. It wouldn't have to be a huge production like Mega64 does, but something with Eric's doing a Nic Cage impression would be choice.

Sure, I guess I just felt like at first the point of the patreon was to support the guys. At some point that switched and the guys are comfortable financially so I can end my sub in peace at this point

I'm sure that it's an affordable expense. They wouldn't risk they're livelihood or detriment their other content for this. Be logical bud.

I think it's absurd that they're not leaning more towards the Halo stuff. This company wouldn't exist if rooster teeth never did. Rooster teeth only existed because of halo. This is absurd...

Thank you so much for the support. We do our best to vocalize it but I hope it's felt how much the support means to us and enables all the content we produce. Not every piece of content may connect with everyone but everything is done with intense thoughtfulness in regards to the audience. We take nothing for granted and always lead with trying to do right by the community. Thank you for vocalizing that perspective as it's a totally valid concern. I hope to just continue to build trust in that regard and to make sure it's always known and felt how appreciated and impactful the support here is to us.

Loved the vid but it made me sad when the bid was already put on that suit, so many better props came up beforehand imo. Benji being the winner but the halo stuff was so cool also, and better priced. Super bummed there wasn't any kind of discussion.
Also, being a patreon supporter, I wanted to support the group post-RT rather than fund 2500 bids on props. Just my 2 cents, I may be a minority on that. I felt like we were supporting the FF/RP crew with patreon subs rather than feeding the bank account to bid on some props that probably won't end up in a lot of content. If the patreon isn't directly supporting content then I think it's not for me

2024-09-02 03:47:45 +0000 UTC
as delightful as this was, that's a lot of dollarbucks to drop on props that might see minimal to no use channel wise. (Excepting the Snake Eyes suit and accessories) Also those original facehugger props were on Gav's mate Adam Savage's youtube a few weeks ago, so that's rad

I don't mean to sound like a downer, but am I the only one that has reservations about them spending money on movie props? Don't get me wrong, this video was a delight to watch and the Tuxedo was a classic FF/RP moment, but it was distinctly different in my mind when Rooster Teeth/Warner Bros was paying for it compared to when its funded primarily by Patreon.
Ultimately, I have faith the crew know what they are doing with as much combined experience as they have, I think I just wish they had discussed more about how these things would be incorporated into content so it didn't come across like they were just buying cool things to have. There won't be a "museum" anymore without an RTX, and almost all their content since RT has been voice-only, so in what way will we see this stuff incorporated into the Regulation cannon?
I'm still all-in on supporting the crew, I just think they might have rolled *snake eyes* on this specific video (pun intended).

Two things:
The hat from the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man can totally fit on Andrew's head. If the size in the movie.
The clown from Poltergeist is the remake clown. Not as scary, but I know what you mean Geoff.
