Glad that they didn't repeat that Red Dead Redemption gag again. Knew that they were doing it when I first saw it, but still glad that they got the real game pretty quick. The Batman game they were playing first looked awful.
I still can't decide on whether or not Matt and Pat are characters or not. Matt's stupidity really seems to fluctuate a lot. At times he seems perfectly normal and at other times he seems too stupid to possibly be functional. So I've been suspicious at times that it's at least partly an act.
Always, somewhere, someone is fighting for you. As long as you remember them, you are not alone.I assume that Matt and Pat are aliases, and the stuff about switching to the right Batman game and Pat's wallpaper show that it's staged to some extent. And I doubt Matt is really this stupid. I jsut don't think they have an actual story, which is what would make the revelation that Pat didn't know he was being recorded so interesting.
Never trust anyone who uses "degenerate" as an insult.For a little while, I thought that Matt and Pat were real, but that Matt was deliberately pretending to be stupid just to annoy Pat. Because sometimes he's way too smart about his stupidity. Like in the Captain America video, how he holds off using his "America!" catch phrase until the very end. And when Pat accuses him of having eaten paint as a child, he replies "You mean wall candy?" without missing a beat.
It was the outtakes videos that made me realize it's pretty much all an act.
I feel like they generally plan the direction for episodes, but still improv the details and edit in the best of what they've recorded. Sure, they might plan for Matt to obfuscate stupidity or Pat to hate on a game, but every so often we get moments of them genuinely saying or doing something stupid/awesome.
That's hilarious.
Is that based on some show or something, or did the makers look at that Man Vs Wild game and decide it wasn't crazy enough?
EDIT: Wait, no, it's based on a chain of sporting goods stores.
What the heck.
