Jon Tron Show - Reviews, Lists, Madness
- Thread starter ZealousD
- Start date
I rewatched half of his old episodes recently. Looking forward to the new stuff! I'd really like to see:
- The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
- Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon (or any Goemon game)
- Bomberman 64 or Bomberman Hero
- Beetle Adventure Racing
- Donkey Kong Country trilogy
He's touched on some of those in other episodes, but dedicated episodes would be amazing.

Beetle Adventure Racing was amazing.
But I forget. Was Jon the one who hated the DKC games or the one who liked them? I was always really sad the Grumps never finished DKC2 after going all the way through DKC1. Then they never did DKC3. Maybe it was Arin who didn't like 2.
Looking forward so hard.
Jon said he loved the DKC games, basically anything RARE.
Jontron loves Rare circa the SNES and N64. He listed all three of the DKC games in his Top 20 SNES Games. All three of them, each with separate entries. I think he didn't even include ALttP and Chrono Trigger.
Mad respect for giving each DKC its due. Yes, even DKC3. Which is better than DKC1. But neither are better than DKC2.
For those interested, someone filmed his MAGfest panel and uploaded it to Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omJ1unlguY0
Hahaha, this is great.
New episode about the Home Alone games, also Normal Boots is back and all of his videos will be uploaded there first from now on: http://normalboots.com/video/home-alone-games-jontron/
YES! I was just saying the other day I'm eager to see his new stuff. And this subject matter (Home Alone) -- LOL.

Is anyone having problems loading videos on NormalBoots? It just keeps loading.
Video doesn't seem to be working for me.
On the other hand, I did get an advertisement for steel-toed boots.
On NormalBoots.
Get it?

I can't get the video player to work at all.
His racist jokes don't bother you?

Site is getting hammered right now so not really possible to watch the video.
Will be back once the first wave of people are gone.

I'm pretty sure he's mistaking Jon with someone completely different because this is news to me.
Seriously, Jon is a lovable teddy bear.
Yeah, I'm having a hard time viewing his video, as well. :-\
I've seen some of the usual joyless folk here harp on Jontron about alleged racist remarks, but I bet they're taking it out of context and it's just him being silly, probably taking the piss out of racism by showing how absurd it is. I really doubt there's even an ounce of hate in Jontron's heart. He's just a great guy, with a lightheartedness to him that I find admirable.
"All the blacks and whites and Jews and Asians and Latinos should all die". Hilarious. It was a joke and he doesn't mean it but what does it say about him if that is what he thinks if funny? What about him going to racist websites as a "joke"?
Joking doesn't NOT make you an unfunny asshole.

He's made some racial jokes on Game Grumps, but if anyone takes that really serious, then I sincerely pity them.
Way I see it, he's making fun of the people who are hateful and actually think that way. He's depicting such sentiment as absurd because it -is- absurd. Like I said, taking the piss out of racism.

Now you're just stating opinion that you don't like JonTron anyway so I respectfully ask that you please leave this thread for the people who like him.
Should probably check back to the site later, it seems like it's experiencing incredibly heavy load right now and the videos don't load.
So he's basically being racist towards himself and every race out there in a sentence that's an absurdist spoof which you took out of context?
Come on, son. Watch his actual videos before you make blind assumptions. Jon is a swell guy.

Finally, Jon is back with something new! He's funny as hell and slightly sexy^^
Jontron is not racist. I know this is the Internet, but let's quit with the character assassination!

I don't understand.. why are you in this thread if you don't like him?
Anyway, about fucking time! I'm glad hes doing other sketches than just video games.

This latest episode is about the Home Alone videogames, isn't it?

Someone on the Game Grumps subreddit posted this as a solution if it doesn't load.

Sounds like Satire 101 to me, friend. Do you think Onion articles are real too?
I have no horse in this race, I've never seen a full Jon Tron video (very little Game Grumps too) and he could be racist for all I know. But as a third party, outside observer, you are clearly being too sensitive about a joke obviously meant to satirize hate speech.

I thought the episode today was pretty good. After it would finally load.
Still having problems with a few of the other ones, though.

For some reason I fucking love his Monster Bash video. I watched it all numerous times and it never gets old. JonTron's videos are pretty good for some "background noise" while I'm working.
