Rolfe Sinks to a New Low
James has been getting lazier and more entitled for years, exporting nearly all the writing, production and editing of his main series to the folks at Screenwave. It's sad but somewhat understandable. However, with this video he exposed two things, both of which reflect badly on his character and company (Cinemassacre). First, he revealed that he can no longer be bothered to write the scripts for what is billed as his own opinion piece, and only a five minute one at that. This implies he probably does less for his other projects than we previously suspected and that his "reviews" are disingenuous fakes. Second, we now know that Screenwave has absolutely zero quality control, transparency or accountability that they would let this plagiarism get by at all, and then go on to cover it up. In this venture, they deleted comments talking about what happened, then offered no less than 3 different contradictory excuses via Justin Silverman (Cinemassacre producer) plus an unlisted non-apology on an alternate channel by James.
If it was James who plagarized, as many suspect it was, the company cannot fire the only person viewers care about. That means the brand "Cinemassace," if it exists at all in the future, will be an undead zombie. No one can ever trust Rolfe again, including old videos. If it was this new guy Newt, as the official statements have implied, then why isn't he fired already? How is PLAGARISM not a fireable offence? What standards, if any, can Rolfe/Cinemassacre claim to have if they continue to associate with him and Screenwave?
This whole debacle has proven beyond a shadow of a doubt just how little Rolfe cares about his fans or reputation anymore. It exposes the clown show that he has entrusted Cinemassacre's IPs with. It's really sad to see this man, who was once emblematic of the potential for independent content creators in the internet era, to descend to such mediocrity. I really expected better of you, James.
