There's no cheesy elements to this video; this kind of attitude / presentation they've figured out is brilliant... as it's visually kind of... playful, without being goofy. That was the problem with even his prime shit... it was goofy... My Name Is and RSS worked just about right but then it was too goofy and so it wore thin quick. This is like playfully creative, whilst feeling adult...
Perfect presentation tbh. One of his best videos.
I love how you're quick to find fault in Em's previous work as soon as something new comes out. There's nothing wrong with My Name is or TRSS videos.
I'm pretty sure you did that with TIC/Cinderella Man too.

It's not nit-picking though, it's noticing differences and comparing.
There hasn't been a... 'playful' Em video, where it's not goofy... so it's not really finding fault, just more-so... "oh... this is that too, but yet... it's improved in this area"...
Also, read what I said: I said 'my name is and trss worked about right' aka, they were about a spot-on balance. So I was actually referring to everything post those videos.
It's just commenting on the differences. As there are things I much prefer about the prime vids for example; if you don't gauge how you feel and analyze what's what... what's the point?
