Collider's Kristian Harloff reaches peak entitlement over Star Wars Galaxy's Edge
- Thread starter Sephzilla
- Start date
It's been meh for a few years now, I only tuned in before for Schnepp and after his passing, Perri and Dennis just weren't on often enough for me to watch it. I disagree with Campea on a lot of things, but he did bring a presence to the show. Now it just seems like a bunch of frat guys talking movies.
Clearly it was just friendly ribbing for entertainment purposes, like some people were saying here.
Man, I was thinking the same thing, but in all fairness, like Stern vs. Bababooey or Stern vs. Pig Vomit?
For sure, I was a fan of Schnepp and I liked Perri for the most part. When it comes to Campea, it's complicated but I agree, him and the aforementioned were my favorites 'parts' of Collider when I kept up with their content.
They named a planet after Harloff in Star Wars. They should mention how it self destructed now.
For five years, no less.
Nah. This guy doesn't seem to have any self-awareness.
The only human beings on YouTube that are unsullied are Natalie Wynn, Jenny Nicholson, ScottTheWoz and JennaMarbles. Assume the worst of everybody else.
What a fucking idiot. What a colossal fucking moron manchild.
You really don’t think those people have their own issues you don’t know about?
I have no words. Wtf Jeremy. Apparently he deleted the video, gee I wonder why.
Saying he 'Bust his ass being a fan' is his way of admitting that he's been pretending to like this shit for money and he feels hey owe him. He should have no credibility with folks with whom he once had credibility.
So, are these one of the main inspiration for the Nerd Crew podcast bit from a little while back? Fake nerd shills?

I saw Rich Evan's reacting to it earlier lmaooooooo his laugh made it 20x funnier but that was some maximum cringe. Dude was so salty
That't what really gets me. Lucasflim named a freakin' planet after the guy. And they gave two passes to the company he works for. and he is still upset that didn't give one to him PERSONALLY?
Like, what does he think Disney/Lucasflm owes him? Can any other Star War's fan/podcaster say they got a planet named after them?
I used to love Jedi Council, and had little problem with Harlof, but post-TLJ Harlof has been insufferable.
Yeah, and then basically says he won't let the two women from Collider who did get to attend come and talk about it on his podcast.
Pretty much.
You keep repeating this but I have yet to see this. Do you have a youtube link? When I searched I only found the one about him keeping her on because she's a good producer but bring in someone else for the story group/creative control.

Some C-tier "influencer" is upset...
Online outlets and bloggers have a very, very high opinion of themselves when it comes to this type of stuff.

I just watched the video and here are my thoughts:
- It was childish on the part of Kristian Harloff and the producer to squabble on stream. It's completely unprofessional and quite frankly a bad look from both a personal level (Harloff) and a company level (producer/Collider).
- I agree with Harloff that 'Jedi Council' should not promote a theme park they have not visited themselves. Their impressions of the park should be their own and not some second hand opinion.
- While some at Collider were invited, it is my opinion that some of these people should have been those who are actively participating on 'Jedi Council'. As a Star Wars fan myself, I would want an impression of the park to come from a Star Wars fan.
He seems fun at parties.
Entitled is definitely an apt description of this dude. Get over yourself. Being a fan of something doesn't earn you a cookie. And you probably didn't get an invite because you're insufferable to be around. I'm assuming Collider did get an invite and press badges. Just not you. Can't imagine why...
I didn't watch the video in the OP, because it's too early in my work day for a cringe dosage, but I'll watch it later.

Damn. RLM is problematic at best. Fuck, that was bad. It's even worse that someone points out the racism but is basically bullied into backing down. Phew.
I mean he kinda has the right to be with Collider(obviously not to act the way he did),
He is their Star Wars person, his show for them covers everything Star Wars down to even the comics, books and merchandise weekly
but Collider sends 1 freelance writer and a regular writer instead and then wants him to shill it.
Which would have been a reasonable subject for a conversation for him to have.
Off air.
Thats the grievance that starts the rant, he says he isn't going to shill it until he experiences it himself.
So its a valid discussion to be had with your managers, but before ever remotely going to air.
I see this mentioned before but how is it a valid discussion? He said being asked to discuss the coverage the group he works for is doing. That usually amounts to an interview with said person or discussing an article they put out about it. He doesn’t have to experience shit to do the above, which is his job.
His grievance is that of a child's. I didn't get my toy so I'm throwing a tantrum and going home.
I was wondering about the RLM laughing video. I had no idea what they were talking about in that video..
now I get it and its like OMFG. this shit is comical AF.
LOLOLOLOLlllLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
* add: that shit about his role in collider is kind of funny. "DONT YOU KNOW WHO I AM?"

After the death of Schnepp, and departures of Campea and Mark Ellis he's the only recognizable host they have left. He wont be going anywhere
Every time I hear about this stupid thing I think they’re talking about the game Star Wars Galaxy. It’s fucking annoying lol
