In brief[edit]
Goldberg1337 is a little-known pooper who began making videos in August of 2008. His style could almost be likened to that of an analog pooper, as he uses a title screen (Saying "Goldberg1337 Presents..." over 1960's organ music) in nearly every video, usually includes credits, and tags his videos appropriately, as well as the fact that he uses his trademark 'narative' style, among other examples. However, this is not the case; many of his poops contain random material and other items that an analog pooper would dare not touch with a 10-foot poll.
His poops are characterized by the use of a 'narative' style, an after-credits (or "hidden" after a pause) joke, and--in earlier poops--the use of the WTF Bomb and Garbage Day. Notably, he uses only Windows-installed and freeware programs to make his poops and add special effects, meaning that the insertion of animation and such is not done with Vegas or Flash, but with single images manipulated in Microsoft Paint and put together for frame-by-frame animation; this is a common feature in pre-"Season 3" poops by Goldberg1337.
History[edit]
The first YouTube Poop Goldberg1337 saw was THROUGH THE FIRE AND FLAMES 100% EXPERT better known as "Butterfly in the Sky". This had a big impact on him, but what had an even bigger impact were the next two poops he saw: WalrusGuy's Scooby Doo and the Case of the Diabetes and IamtheGang's Zelda CD-i--the Return to Gamelon. It was IamtheGang's style that most inspired him to create his own YouTube Poops, although unfortunately it lead Goldberg to CD-i poop (although he eventually overcame this).
First poop seen[edit]
First poop made[edit]
Sparta Day![2]
Style[edit]
Goldberg1337's style is comprised of narrative, epic poops. Many are over 5 minutes long. Basicly, there is usually some sort of story or theme, and the jokes pertain to that. His poop "Wand of Zion" a CD-i/ Matrix hybrid could even be considered to have "sketches" much like a comedy program.
A second trademark of his work is the use of frame-by-frame animation. As all his work is done using free software--WMM, Paint, and Audacity (a fact he prides himself on)--the only way to do any "custom animation" (as he refers to it) is by drawing or each frame and them importing the image files into WMM and aranging them. Although this makes for slow framerates and inconsistant placement, this homey style could be considered indearing, and noteable for the amount of work put into complex projects, such as his almost entirely animated poop "Election '08".
Two more notable items present in many of his videos are an end-of-credits joke, and a staredown accompanied by the song "Ironside(2)". The former is used both to encourage viewers to read all the credits, and for any little jokes that did not fit into the actual work. In his epic "Captain Planet--Right In The Fuehrer's Face!" there is a long end-of credits joke featuring two men in tuxedos dancing, originally from the "Everybody Wants To Rule The World" music video (used earlier in the same poop). The Ironside(2) staredown was used first in "Wand of Zion", and Goldberg1337 continued to use it in several more poops until the joke got stale (i.e., after four YTPs).
Preferred Sources[edit]
- Silent Night, Deadly Night 2 (Specifially, Garbage Day.)
- Ironside (2) [audio]
- CD-i (Very early works)
- The Matrix
- Captain Planet
- Shark Attack 3
- Barack Obama's Speeches
- The Wilhelm Scream (audio)
- LifeAlert ads
Preferred Methods[edit]
- Narrative (i.e., a loose story for the whole poop)
- Intro
- Custom Animation
- Using freeware
- Memes
- Long videos/ epics
Prefered Tech[edit]
Goldberg1337 uses all freeware or system-included software: WMM, Paint, and Audacity (the latter with a few extra plugins). He prides himself on using such limited technology.
Dislikes[edit]
Goldberg1337 is known to dislike highly sped-up poops and large amounts of earrape, as well as all screamers.
Reception[edit]
Goldberg1337 had had little reception, as he is known by few. Comments on his videos are typically positive, quoting funny lines, or mentioning that his videos need more views or stars. YouChewPoop forums comments have typically ranged from saying that the work is "meh" or "ugh" to downright negative and insulting comments; to more recent support of videos such as "Billy Mays' Finest Hour" and "Life Alert Hires Solid Snake".
Criticism[edit]
Criticism is typically aimed at the long, epic/ narritive style, which may leave segements of varrying lengths joke-free. YouChew users also frequently dislike his use of an intro and credits, as well as the overall duration of many of his poops. Some earlier works, recently re-posted, re-uploaded, or re-discovered by YouChew members have been critisized for overuse of memes for humor (especially "Nobody But Neo" upon reupload).
Goldberg1337 himself admits to a few duds in the mix of his videos, such as the previous mentioned "Nobody But Neo", "Comrade Planet" (at least the second half), and the more recent "The Nostalgia Critic is Aroused by the AVGN". Main criticisms about these poops--from user comments or from Goldberg1337 himself--relate to weak portions of the videos, such as a slow opening for "NC is Aroused by AVGN" and an only moderately amusing second half to "Comrade Planet".
His video "Will it Blend--THAT is the Question" was originally uploaded as a YouTube Poop, but was re-branded as "remixed" after criticism. Goldberg1337 admitted that the video was not up to his usual quality, even though it was a "comeback" video after a hiatus.
Achievements[edit]
Top videos (as of March, 2013) are: "Max's Chocolate Metal Gear" with 50,506 views, "LifeAlert Doesn't Take No For An Answer" with 33,755 views, "Use It When You Need It!" with 15,145 views, and "Nostalgia Critic is Aroused by the AVGN" with 10,792 views.
Associates[edit]
Goldberg1337 is friends with Mellotronaic and HillbillyJim, both poopers as well. He is also best friends with fellow YTPer DragonSly.
In Real Life[edit]
Freelances for the Red Team and saves the world from Communism on a regular basis.
Online[edit]
As stated above, Goldberg1337 and DragonSly are friends, but have not done any collabs.
Influences[edit]
Goldberg1337 was mostly influenced by the prolific and narrative nature of some of WalrusGuy's videos, and by the epic nature of IamtheGang. It was the latter's use of WMM and Paint that inspired Goldberg1337 to do the same.
It was the semi-negative reaction to WalrusGuy's short poops that cemented Goldberg1337 to the longer, epic/ narrative style (although there have been several exceptions).
He was inspired to use Ironside(2) after seeing "Toys Gone Wild!".
His more recent videos take more direct influence from the original work--or from movies, music, or video games--as opposed to references from classic/ popular YTP videos.
