Man, the snowball effect is real. It hasn't stopped falling.

[QUOTE=Frisk;49647373]What as their sub amount at before all of this started happening?[/QUOTE] I'd say maybe 14 mil - 15 mil. It's so satisfying watching their sub count go down.

okay youtube sub count is like 10k slow or something its still saying "13,959,650 " subs when other sites are saying 13,956,000 and less

No I was mistaken, a couple days before the announcement, they just reached 14 mil. They are nearly at the same amount of Subscribers they had last month.

I wonder if this will screw over the show they have on TruTV?

[QUOTE=Durrsly;49647505]I wonder if this will screw over the show they have on TruTV?[/QUOTE] If anything, season 2 won't be renewed unless TruTV see's money in renewing for another season. Or if they already agreed on x number of seasons, they will make them.

I've been watching this page. It seems to never get stuck, or if it does it's really rare. [url]http://socialblade.com/youtube/user/thefinebros/realtime[/url] The numbers have just been dropping all day.

If it get's to 7 mill next week.

[QUOTE=Ithon;49647528]If it get's to 7 mill next week.[/QUOTE] Yeah no, it won't. Just to prove my point. :toxx:

[QUOTE=Xonax;49647562]Yeah no, it won't. Just to prove my point. :toxx:[/QUOTE] Okay. (I don't think it will either, I'm just quoting the toxx anyways.)

[QUOTE=Gwoodman;49646481][url]http://ryanmorrisonlaw.com/attorneys-react-the-fine-bros-react-trademark/[/url] They also are applying for DO THEY KNOW IT?, KIDS VS. FOOD, LYRIC BREAKDOWN, PEOPLE V. TECHNOLOGY, and [B]TRY NOT TO SMILE OR LAUGH[/B]. While those are all ridiculously generic and descriptive, in my opinion (they hate coming up with original ideas, huh?), we will not be opposing those just yet. [/QUOTE] [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V55Zq5whVCI[/media] Can't wait until they take down this 8 year old video for copyright infringement :v:

This has to be one of the worst cases of the Streisand Effect and blatant ass-covering I think I've ever seen someone do on the internet. It's insane that they were granted the copyrights in the first place.

tbh the only part i only really agree with the fine bros is that this could be a cool historical archive for future generations. its inane bullshit for us living right now, but in a few hundreds years they are gonna be like "dude how did they even act during <year>." you ever read shit in a history book and thought "Man, those romans are fucking nuts, i wonder what it looked like in real life" but its a shitty ass excuse to copyright shit and make money off it.

[QUOTE=Bradyns;49643147]Agreed. I have no quarrel with them taking an 'X reacts to Y' format though.[/QUOTE] Yeah, I retract my former statement. Fuck 'em!

it would be pretty sad if people talk about shitty reaction videos in 100's from in a way that means anything

Apparently fine bros have been emailing animators and totally not copy pasting the same image stating that they love their work. [img]http://i.imgur.com/t72LNEX.png[/img] Maybe they are trying to do damage control by contacting animators, claiming they love their work, just so the animators won't make fun of them through animations like McGoiter (well Speedosausage animated it) and psychicpebbles did.

The Fall of the Fine Bros will be the only thing in their time capsule :v:

the animators who got this email's should counter - strike by making even worse videos mocking them

ah i can't wait until these communist-type bias fags die also this video made me stop watching them [video=youtube;8TJxnYgP6D8]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8TJxnYgP6D8[/video] you can tell this is all fake. It's so easy to manipulate kids

uh, what?

[QUOTE=Xonax;49647469]Reminder: Everyone in this thread has to pay FBE for their Reactions. [editline]1st February 2016[/editline] It was like halfway from 15 mil.[/QUOTE] so that's more than 599k subs + less

Yeah Fine Bros! [img]http://i.imgur.com/RX0MPBp.jpg[/img] I wonder what they're reaction would be to this. I guess I'll have to purchase a reaction license from them to find out.

I thought they were just greedy guys who wanted to make money off of every reaction video as possible, but it's starting to look like they genuinely believe that their reaction videos are a unique work of genius.
