Animated Atrocities

This show definitely is not to my taste. The show features Mr. Enter commenting on several children's cartoons. Frankly this show is unpleasant, Mr.Enter does not review the shows fairly as he only ever talks about the negative aspects; granted the show is called Animated Atrocities but it is not fair reviewing to only talk about what it does wrong unless the show is an absolute abysmal, which 9 times out of 10 the show he is reviewing is not. Also Enter is really angry in this show. You have to have several emotions when making these kind of videos, just plain anger doesn't hold my attention nor does it create anything of substance, you can use happiness, anger, sadness, melancholy, excitement but just showing annoyance does not bring anything new or exciting to the table.

The show also lacks comedy, I'm assuming that he is doing this as a riff sort of thing, like what the Nostaglia Critic or Jontron do in their web-series. However many of the episodes do not have any jokes or anything of that sort, and an awful lot of the ones that do Enter has to really stretch to make a joke, or just settle for an easy target. Granted there are many times that Enter can make good jokes and he does seem to have a good sense comedic timing, however a lot of the comedy is not spectacular The editing is not exactly top notch either. There are many audio glitches and sometimes when he is talking he gets cut off mid sentence. And the footage is also looped very often, it gets very monotonous looking at the same clip over and over again. When he started this series Enter was an amateur so the poor editing is excusable, however he is using Patreon for this series now so I think that if he is making money from this then the editing has to be tuned up. Enter should invest in good editing software such as Sony Vegas Pro, or he could commission an editor Enter lacks variety in what he reviews. The majority of his reviews are targeted towards the Spongebob Squarepants show, it is very important to have diversity in what you are reviewing, if you review the same thing over and over again then there is nothing new or noteworthy.

I've notices that his biggest complaint amongst what he reviews is that it is violent or mean-spirited. There are many films, television programs, books and other media that are mean spirited but they are still good. I honestly do not see a problem with this material. I used to watch shows like this when I was a child and I'm not some kind of violent maniac. Children are not idiots, they understand that what happens on TV and in real life are two very different things so there is no risk of the average child pummelling their best friend with a hammer because a starfish told them to. Obviously there are some things such as a Clockwork Orange which shouldn't be shown to young children but cartoons are absolutely harmless. To be frank, saying that Spongebob is violent sounds like something an overprotective mum would say.

Mr. Enter clearly needs to work on some things on his show, as right now it is not very impressive

I don't mind Mr. Enter's content too much. I feel like he gets too much hate, simply because he whines so much in a lot of his reviews. His reviews can be good, but then his reviews can just be him repeating himself over and over again.

Mr. Enter can bring up some interesting points on a subject. His Admirable Animation on Duck Dodgers' Samurai Quack was pretty good. He goes into detail on how to make a respectful parody, while still maintaining some kind of funny aspect. Another great Admirable Animation of his is his Gravity Falls review on 'Land before swine'. In that review he describes how to deal with two characters that have the same goals, but different dynamics at the same time.

Sometimes his animated atrocities are just him rambling & repeating about 'how he doesn't like gross out cartoons' & etc. And he gets a little too p1ssed off from a piece of fiction. To the point where he makes no valid opinions while rambling.

The guy clearly doesn't need the hate that he gets. There are worse cartoon community channels out there. Such as 'Valiksisbum', Phantom Strider after he jumped the shark, Channel Frederator after they jumped the shark, small channels that talk nonstop about TTG, etc. But then again there are better Cartoon Youtubers that get their point across in a superior way within the community. Such as PieGuyRulez, Rebeltaxi, Lewtoons and etc.

This guy is my favorite reviewer on YouTube. This guy pretty much sums it up on how bad animation is on TV. I watch other Animated Atrocities, but I really like to watch the episode if it's about Nickelodeon. I also watch Admirable Animation, too. I like it, also. Of course there is some good animation out there. So if you ever want to see how bad most animation is now a days, watch this series on YouTube. Some of my favorite Atrocities is Love Loaf (Breadwinners), Fart Baby (Sanjay and Craig), A Pal for Gary (SpongeBob), Save the Tooth (Glenn Martin DDS), and so many more. This guy puts a lot of variety in his videos. One of my favorite people and reviewers on YouTube. So, I just want to say, Keep on keeping on, Mr. Enter! Keep up the good work!

God where do I start? Mr Enter (what kind of a name is that?) Is a hypocritical, rude, obnoxious, egotistical, immature Man-Child. All he does is moan about how 'LE SPONGEBOB IS NOT WHAT IT USED TO BE.' and thinking it is good and fair reviewing. Also not to mention he thinks kids are stupid and so impressionable that they will literally believe anything the TV tells them to. Kids are smarter than you think, Enter.

Also lets address his obsession with MLP. He tells people not to nitpick Friendship Is Magic but he nitpicks everything else. He never shuts up about it! And if you don't like ponies then Enter has a rage about how you are 'bullying' him, simply for not enjoying what he enjoys. And if you don't agree with him then he hates you! that's a good open minded and humble approach to life isn't it? He must have so many friends with that personality trait! Hell the hottest girls must be all over him! And of course he has to think that all Christians are stupid (Breadwinners review joke about Sarah Bible) And he has no problem calling people who like the shows he doesn't like stupid. So Enter is not only a bad reviewer, but just straight up rude. Insulting another person's beliefs, calling people idiots for no good reason and forcing your opinions down other people's throats These are not traits of a good person. I hope this guy changes his attitude because to be honest right now he is straight up obnoxious and unpleasant. Don't believe me? In one of his journals a person sent him constructive criticism on his writing in a polite and respectful way and Enter said and I quote "Have fun making mountains of debt that you will never be able to pay back in college" This shows how much of a smug, disrespectful person he really is.

He also is boring, he speaks in a monotone voice and he needs to lighten up! would you listen to MLK if the I have a dream speech was just him moaning? No you wouldn't! It was his passion and emotion that made people listen! While he just whines about how people in Victoria say 'Aubergine' instead of Eggplant.

And he thinks that nothing can be mean spirited. Kids know what suicide is! having suicide jokes isn't going to make them kill themselves! that's not how depression works. Suicide is what happens when Pain strongly overrules coping mechanisms and the sufferer can see no other way out and believes that death is the only solution. It's not: HURR I SAW A SUICIDE JOKE ON A CARTOON I BETTER KILL MYSELF XD" I've been suicidal and I assure you it was not because a fictional kitchen appliance told me to kill myself.

And Enter straight up insults writers. While in all honesty Enter is one of the worst writers I have ever seen! He cannot create any argument and just says pointless buzzwords words in a pretentious voice in the hopes that people will think he's a genius. It doesn't matter how deep your nose is buried down in a thesaurus or how obscure the words you are using are, the context is 95% of what drives your point home. You cannot just use a bunch of colourful words and expect it to mean something, that makes you look pretentious.

Mr.Enter (His real name is Jonathan, why couldn't he call himself that?) has his own cartoon coming out! called Growing Around. Whats it about? Children are adults and adults are children. That is not a fun premise, that's a one joke premise. And after reading through several of his scripts the show does not stand out at all, it is actually pretty bland and doesn't really have a fun or exciting feel to it. And he openly stated that one of the characters was so fun that you could just watch her doing chores and you would be entertained. That's pretty arrogant, man. Also not to mention that he stole the premise for the show from a Disney cartoon. You know that's really something, When Tolkien wrote the Lord of the Rings books he did not just think "Well I'm just going to copy Beowulf's premise" he looked at what parts of the text he could base elements of the story on and he created something new, he didn't just make a rip-off of Beowulf. So yeah, use elements that you liked from the Disney cartoon but don't just straight up rip it off.

All in all, Enter needs to lighten up and he needs to grow up.because he cannot accept that other people have opinions and different people like different things.

EDIT: also I recently found out that he is blaming the fact that he can't take criticism on Asperger's Syndrome. Okay, first of all Autism is not just some magical get out of jail free card for all your flaws, You can not just use it as an excuse for being immature. Second it is really insulting that you are saying that Asperger's causes you to act like this. I have Asperger's as well and I'll admit sometimes I do or say things that are a bit strange but I still know how to take criticism, It is so insulting that he thinks he can just blame his condition on all his flaws, That makes other Autistic people look bad. I really hope that by some miracle Mr. Enter changes his attitude and learns how to take constructive criticism because he is smug, disrespectful, obnoxious and rude to anyone he reviews and people who don't suck up to him.

I don't care if the majority disagrees, I'm saying this: Mr. Enter is not a good reviewer, and his Animated Atrocities are some of the biggest bunch of bull I've ever seen. What's wrong with him exactly? You mean besides the fact he has an ego as big as the sun and standards higher than Mt. Everest? Well, here's my main problems with him:

He's a cherry-picker. He takes one bad episode of an otherwise decent or mediocre show and makes it look like the whole show is bad. For instance, in his Sanjay and Craig review, he bases his entire opinion of the show on the episode Fart Baby and makes it look like the rest of the show sucks. Never mind the show has good, heartwarming episodes like The Giving G, Trouble Dare, and A Tale of Two Slithers. Teen Titans Go is another example. Yes, it has bad episodes like Waffles and Staring at the Future, but there are still occasional gems to be found from it, such as Colors of Raven, Terra-ized, and Baby Hands. But if one episode sucks to him, it's irredeemable.

He's biased. Sure, he says he holds all cartoons to the same standards. But if that's the case, how come nearly all of his reviews are on recent Nicktoons and he's done only one atrocity of a classic Nicktoon and one atrocity of an earlier season of Fairly OddParents? He also hates anything that Seth MacFarlane (I know he's divisive, but come on) or Nickelodeon make, simply because they're involved.

He's an egotist. Have you ever tried to disagree with him? Don't be surprised if he just calls you a troll (which he thinks is the same as a cyberbully, despite there being obvious differences) and writes you off as some know-nothing dolt. I'm sorry Enter, do you not like Teen Titans Go or Family Guy? Do they not reach your unrealistically high expectations? Oh, and did you know that not everything has to be exactly how you want it and the world does not, in fact, revolve around you? And lord forbid you get his fans on your case... (Basically, they say you suck for "not respecting" his opinion. If he's entitled to his, shouldn't I be entitled to mine?)

He doesn't realize times have changed. Yes, Hey Arnold and Rugrats are good (if highly overrated) shows, but back then, that was the norm. Taste in TV has changed. Sometimes, a show doesn't have to be deep or meaningful. Sometimes it's nice for out-and-out ridiculousness and shock value. Also, he's shocked Breadwinners was at one point the most popular show for kids? Yes, how dare the show's TARGET AUDIENCE enjoy what was made to be viewed by them?

Finally, he's a hypocrite. One of his most notable reviews of My Little Pony, Twilight's Kingdom, has him saying you should not accentuate the negative and shouldn't nitpick. And that's exactly what he does in this vile little show. If an episode he deems "atrocious" does even one, tiny, MINUSCULE thing wrong, it's garbage. Did I mention he says he holds all cartoons to the same standards but hasn't backed it up?

He also tends to forget one of the basic rules of common sense: If you don't like something, YOU AVOID IT! You don't dedicate your life to whining about it! (Yes, I'm aware I'm being a bit hypocritical, reviewing him and all, but at least I KNOW when I'm being a hypocrite).

Yes, he does usually go after stuff that really, truly does suck (such as Tentacolino and Allen Gregory), but most of the stuff he declares is awful is really just subjective. It'd be nice if he was calmer about his opinion, and reminding us it's just what he thinks, but he just beats us over the head with what he thinks and refuses to listen to anyone who tries to debunk his claims.

Basically, if your looking for fair and intellectual analysis of animation, don't go here. Try the Nostalgia Critic instead (and even if you disagree with him or find him biased or unfair, the theatrics and comedy of his reviews at least make it more tolerable).
