7:12 When I saw this movie, my take from this guy wasn't that he was an "average gamer", but instead rather the concept of the warning "you don't know who you're actually talking to on the internet", taken to an absolute extreme. The guy's got a great looking girl as his avatar, fooling the people he interacts with online, but behind her lies a different person entirely. Like the old saying, "online, all men are men, all women are men, and all girls are undercover FBI agents". Also, not gonna lie, I massively respect the actor for taking on this role. The auditioning went "Hey, we need someone to play a fat disgusting outcast of society, who serves as a deterrent to the rest of humanity" and this guy just went yep, I can do that.

[@McSquiddington]

It's sort of telling when something like Wreck-It-Ralph pays more adequate homage to games culture than something that goes through great length to pack in all the visual stereotypes imaginable. "Gamer" isn't much more than the product of non-savvy producers thinking that your average consumer plays Call of Duty eighteen hours per day and somehow has no concept of self-care. It doesn't help that Neveldine and Taylor thrive on shocking imagery, so even *if* some basic starting research was performed, it was obvious they would've gone for the overt sexuality and violence of the medium's most popular representatives at the time.

This film's hyper-aggressive editing was the work of an editor named Doobie White, whose background I believe is in commercials. He is quite notably responsible for Resident Evil: Final Chapter having close to 6,000 cuts with a runtime of one hour and 40 minutes, with some scenes having about 45 cuts in 15 seconds. He's an editor that clearly knows what he's doing, but has dubious taste, and clearly has odd views on how many cuts per second the human mind can withstand.

As far as capitalism is concerned, nothing is against your will as long as you agreed to it for money. If you’re stuck in that mindset, any boss’s treatment of their employees is ethically unassailable.

[@themadpro]

Debatable, 2009 is so far back that competitive e-sports had a much smaller audience, console gaming wasn't dead yet and game journalism wasn't the butt of jokes... I guess what I'm saying is, there hadn't been a "rise" for there to be a "fall". You didn't have Joker memes, and "Redditors" were more often called shut-ins. By virtue of that, I would say the connotation was still negative. In fact "Gamers are ultra violent" is definitely a sentiment that goes back to the 90's, though it was often games that were portrayed as the villain rather than players.
