  • Thanks for the heads-up, bro. You're doing the right thing; keep your head up!!

  • yes your right get your fackts straight

  • StarWars now has almost 10,000,000 views!!!

  • retarded police man is not retarded

  • @MsHotpancakes actually he is srry

  • In my opinion in this situation his mental disability is irrelevant. It is unfair for anyone to be treated like that.

  • Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm ........ Hahahahaha

  • U tok 2 much...bitch

  • I was wondering also if you can give me tips on how to get more views all my "friends" say that they are stupid and I deleted a lot of them because I am making a fool of my self and I was wondering if you could sind me a message.

  • That pissed me off when I saw that video I can't beleave somone would do that to a person with problems. I am on my iPod so I can't do much but tomarrow I will.

  • Be proud for getting involved in what has happened. You are obviously a decent and caring person.

  • Thanks for sharing this video. That's really horrible, but business people do what they can to screw people over. I bet it was really cool to hang out with those guys. Mediocrefilms is run by some people that can enjoy this life, but then spend a great eternity in the hell that they put themselves in. That's bullshit though.

  • This is a really good video.I'm going to rate all there videos 5 stars and post comments!

  • Dude I would be pissed if I were you, especially since you could have been in an episode!

  • um um um um um um um

  • good man i agree with you completely ponce kicks ass drama sux but in this case was worth it

  • i have never watched the retarded policeman series, and after reading both blogs and watching both videos it seems incredibly dishonest and for lack of a better word just wrong what Greg Benson has been doing.

  • Jesus I couldn't even watch this. I can't get past this guys "um..." every 3 GD seconds

  • The only reason I subscribed to MediocreFilms was because of Retarded Policeman! In all seriousness that was and is my all time favorite YouTube series, and without that series MediocreFilms is just that, mediocre.

  • without the retarded policeman there is no mediocre films. . .i unsubscribed from mediocre films the very day i heard what kind of bs they pulled.

  • Thank You.

    We all struggle with certain stereotypes in this world. Race, Language Barriers, Gender, Sexual Preference, Religion, Mental Infastructure, Physical abnormaility, etc. We have a choice to either Judge and speculate or appreciate. I appreciate Josh Perry aka Ponce for breaking oppression as the first Down Symdrome Man to become famous and not let his "handicap" hold him back from his talent and potential. Kudos for speaking up. You did the right thing.

  • Thats nuts man so sad so sad...... we need to remember that " Money is the cheapest thing in the world when you have it , and the most expensive thing when your broke" Its the root of all evil....

  • this seems like it's kinda...long and confusing, so i'm gonna stoop watching this...

  • wtf is wrong with ur mouth

  • this is really terrible. Ponceman and his bro should sue mediocrefilms, and they should be made to take the videos of their channel, letting ponceman had his bro re-uppload them to their channel. I mean, there has to be some law to help them out on that part. What mediocrefilms did is a real disgrace, really

  • I used to subscribe to Mediocre Films only for RP. That was the ONLY thing on that channel that was funny in my opinion.

  • nice vid! search "embarrassing wank story" for a funny vid! please subscribe :) rate and comment

  • Greg is STILL making ALOT of money off Retarded policeman merchandise and teh Perry brothers are making NOTHING off the merchandise THATS the conflict.The Perry brothers deserve a fair cut.Everyone can do thier part of showing support by watching the videos that the Perry brothers have on thier own channel.Search "ponceman" on youtube and show your support folks.

  • so this greg guy was skimming money off of poncemans cheques?

  • shut up fag

  • gay

  • gosh holy shit get it right!

  • ... and now you're making "A LOT" of money dramatising this? Talk about justice ;)

  • That's not cool MF not.cool.

  • Um Um Um Um Um Um Um Um Um Um Um Um Um Um Um Um

  • Bloody Hell man!!

    Get to the f#cking point!!

    10 minutes for you to say Ponce rocks and Benson sucks

    I agree totally, but 2 minutes would've done it

  • hey ummm that was interesting umm so umm u said umm about 75 umm's yes i know umm i counted umm cause in the umm begining u said umm alot so umm i thort umm i should umm let u umm no abotut umm that so umm good work on the umm vid

  • Greg Benson is SUCH a scum bag.  I wonder how the guy even lives with himself.

  • @jebuscheez & @rootvalue you guys might wanna get your facts straight. The Perry boys wrote and created most of the material used in the show.

  • So true I'm with u that this wonderful man has a mental disability and that they ripped him off is just fucking disgusting! Excuse my french but I'm very pissed off.

  • this is so weird

  • See, it all comes down to wehat the verbal contract actually was. The Perrys claim it was halvsies. MF clearly claims otherwise. It could be as simple as a misunderstanding of the initial agreement.

    Fact is, they have attempted reconciliation and that failed. They attempted to form a written contract (ALWAYS get a written contract, even with friends, when it's business) and that fell through.

    I can't believe MF intentionally took advantage of the Perrys. It went bad, sad. Out of characters.

  • Shut up homo.

  • where does the money come from?

  • I agree, I find that quite horrible. Just the greed with ripping off so much money is horrid in general.

  • He is the type of guy ho does somthign instead of sits on his ass when somthing goes wrong

  • @TheTK423 like what blog about it thats a real man HAHAHA hes a fkin homo

  • This guy's a good guy in my book

  • Yo! Leave Corey alone! The dude is doing what he believes is right. He's a good guy and you dickholes leavin crap comments should buzz off. Nice job corey, big fan and on ur side!

  • Poor acting. This attacks MF so much, I love Greg's films. The perry bros seem to be pulling figures out of thin air even though they claim Greg didn't give them a figure. No way would Mediocre Films do that. And as for saying it's because hes got downs that's just obscene. It The Perry Bros were that convinced they'd have taken it to court.

  • @nintentom screw off cunt face ur yellin at a dude sticking up for a guy facing with down syndrome who cares if u like MF

  • @guruofmetalandrock12 @guruofmetalandrock12 This has never had anything to do with who has down syndrome. Its been about money which is something, in my opinion, the Perry Brothers wanted more of. So before you throw your dictionary of slang at me Im not siding with MF. Just saying youre hearing one side of this story. Too easy to criticise

  • Thanks for doing making this video for all the right reasons.

  • to make a long story short.... so anyways...... so..... dude, don't delude yourself, you're not that interesting, economize your words, you could've said all this in 2 minutes.

  • @hatedATbirth

    hey screw off he just thought of this at the top of his head and doing this for the right reasons.

  • Thank you for your input I am glad to see your good friend to them.

  • There's always a thing called a lawyer.

  • firefox > ie

  • it also depends on what ads you have.

  • thats bullshit... the film company should only get 20% at most!!!! Greg is a piece of shit! I'm gonna miss the retarded policeman videos! I hope the film company go's broke for the shit they have pulled on the perry brothers. That seems 2 be the name of the game these days, everybodys trying 2 get rich and they don't care who they fuck over to get it!

  • couldnt you have combed your hair first?....<----random

  • So wait? Greg was ripping off the perry bros? What? Why the hell would he do that? Shouldn't they split it equal ways because they all put their time and effort into it? Um? I like the retardedpoliceman videos. What a shame.

  • greg is a fucking asshole

  • wait soo josh gets not much money?

    Greg is stealing from him then!

  • :O i cant believe that a RATHER RICH man would rob ( coz lets face it thats wat this is!!) and not only the fact that he's canned those 2 great guys but josh has down syndrome!!

    HOW FUCKIN LOW CAN U GET MAN!!! i cant believe that someone with a concious can do that to anybody!! this guy greg is a fuckin crook!!! and besides that, all the retarded policeman videos has MADE mediocre films and now it is TRULY MEDIOCRE coz they've lots the greatest and kindest guy for wat a few hundred dollars!!

  • @kjcoolguy Get used to it. It all comes back to the human condition. We're a greedy, self-interested species.

    I see supposedly good people do this shit to each other on a daily basis.

    My grand father always used to say; "Show me someone good and moral, who has never made a mistake or hurt someone else for their own benefeit and I will laugh at you for being naive."

    I agree with him. As negative as it is, I have seen 0 proof to the contrary.

    A shame but.. human nature.

  • retarded policeman was by FAR the best show. im disapointed that there wont be more. and i agree that greg should make more money. but not that much more. gregs other videos are stupid.

  • @panda0100 yea they promised 100 episodes

  • Retarded policeman MADE mediocre films.

    I can not say I enjoyed his other work at all.

  • isn't greg the owner/creator of mediocre and director/ writer of that show? So don't you think he has the right to make more money than the perry kids? Who cares how nice and warm they are? it wasn't there channel. Do the writers, actors, or creators of the Simspons and Family guy make more money than the CEO of the fox network? Seriously doubt it. Making it seem that they were being taken advantage of because one has down syndrome is a cheap shot.

  • @jebuscheez1 Yeah but Sap directed, written and edited some of them. Plus Ponce stars in all of them. Also theyve only been getting about 5% profits from the show and 0% from merchandise. Sap designed all of the t shirts, stickers, buttons ect. I think that Greg is a greedy asshole.

  • If Greg ripped off the Perry brothers it has nothing to do with the fact that one has downs syndrome, why would it. Josh doesn't handle the finances in the family. Also Greg has multiple sources of income (like his other videos or his job) there is a good chance he woulden't know off hand how much money came from where.

  • get 2 da point

  • ummm. ummm. ummm, can you get to the freakin point dude ? like forreal !

    cause that is most of your video is saying ummmm ummmm ummm !

  • Yes, 'blah, blah, blah, blah' is exactly what Greg said. Good 'neutral' stance, you bigot. Interesting how neither of the Ponce brothers said 'blah, blah, blah, blah', but their view was more important than another man's.

  • It's called Sticking Up for your Friends Root. You should try it sometime.

  • Happens all the time, thats the sad bit. Exploitation of talented artists by greedy muthas. Youll probably find that somewhere the Perrys signed over all rights to that stuff too... because greedy scum is always clever about making sure stuff like that happens. Not an easy thing to talk about. Im going to watch the perrys and this guy Gregs version now.

  • I think you're liars.

  • dork

  • ummm?

  • nice shirt

  • You're an absolute putz. This video is simply demonstrative of an annoying kid who just wants to 'be involved'. Yes I'm a huge fan of Ponce, but you brought no new or convincing information to the table, and despite your claim of neutrality, were one sided from the get go. In so far as Ponces disability is concerned, why the fuck is that even relevant to the crunching of numbers? Last I checked Scott is the one who acts on Joshs behalf in that respect. You're just trying to make a villain.

  • you need to work on you communication skills mate. this ten minute video could be said in probably less than half the time should you be able to speak properly

  • this was a really cool video corey

  • wow this mediocre films dude is a total asshole

  • @marijuanamayhem420 And Mediocre films isn't funny anymore either.  Color them Unsubscribed!

  • @Ca2rie59 Good for you for being unbiased!

  • I get your sarcasm Root, but no...they just aren't funny either. Sorry..but they aren't. What, are they paying you or something? What do you care if I subscribe to them or not?

  • wats with the firefox shirt he must like the browser

  • I read the blog post, and I can't understand why the Perry brothers say that they have no way of knowing how much money Mediocre Films made on "Retarded Policeman"... but they say that they only got 5%? Um, what?

  • Get to the point kid!!

  • thanks alot becuase ive bean confused about this for a while and i wasnt sure who was the bad guys and now im better informed so thanks

  • zzZZZZzzZZZZ

  • i agree!

  • "to make a long story short"

    Ummm a little too late!

  • no retard, he made a short story long.

  • Can this kid talk any slower?

  • he's practicing his english... he's new to our language...

  • Who gives a flyin fuck bout mediorcor films you should make your own YouTube account and keep makin them u guys are great

  • mediocrefilms is the guy who writes the script, i.e. he's the guy behind the laughs. Let the perry bros write the script and it wouldnt nearly as good

  • no the perry bros wrote it

  • Incorrect.

  • ive heard both sides dude and its medicrefilms who cheated perry bros out of profits

  • So have I. How can you possibly say in absolute surety that is the case without being one of the participating parties. You don't know, it's pure speculation.

  • @djdogjuam Greg Benson is a fucking genius.

    A fucking genius. I stand behind him.

  • @rootvalue Lol, are you kidding? Have you seen the shit he's been putting up since the Perry boys left? It's awful.

  • @isjoellash learn how to spell mediocre!

  • this turns the tide... i didnt know what to do... believe ponceman's vid and blog or greg's vid and blog... now i've made my conclusion...

    im taking ponce's side... thanks for the info XD

  • Well said mate, its disgraceful !!

  • lets kill greg YAY!!!

  • The situation as far as I can tell:

    Mediocre Films seems to have started the Retarded Policeman series with the argeement that the RP people would be paid whatever their standard contracting fee was.

    After the RP people realized Mediocre Films was cashing in huge from the videos, they wanted more.

    MF, as far as there is evidence, does not owe RP anything whatever.

  • Wrong. The three of them started RP together. The character was made especially for Josh. From the beginning it was to be a 50/50 split. So, they are owed a lot!!!

  • Show the evidence that there was a contractual arrangement for it to be split evenly.

    I'm guessing there was no such binding agreement, or else there would be no need for the youtube pandering.

    If a legal contract was broken, take it to court. If it wasn't, as I suspect, then lesson learned and I'm sure that mistake won't be made again.

  • Interesting...

    It still doesn't convince me that Greg dishonored an agreement or that there actually was one.

    Just because they didn't earn as much as they 'should' in opinion, does not mean they were contractually owed more. They could of agreed to fixed payments rather than a percentage.

  • Agreed again, Damecos.

    Just provide the evidence/documentation that this was a binding agreement, and the problem is solved.

  • fk u guys GREG BENSON is my hero.

  • if my friend ever meets you she will beat you up

  • jshaw be retarded 2 click click

  • i thought he was joking about being retarded and what they did is not right

  • I want to thank you for doing this video and putting out all of the links and things for us to decide on our own. I also want to thank you for being a true friend to those guys and helping them. It's a shame Greg is a lier who ripped off two incredibly sweet trusting people. They did good by meeting and befriending you, thanks for helping them. And helping us see all the facts.

  • I completely agree with you Corey. The idea that some corporate douchebag would do something like this is gut wrenching. It's so upsetting knowing that two people that work hard and love entertaining people are being treated so poorly. It is really unfortunate that the "retarted policeman" videos are no longer being made, but i suppose it is for the better, but who says that they won't make something else just as good without someone without a soul stealing all of their profits.

  • Mediocre Films is corporate?! LOL.

    Fail.

  • so said don't leave a comment, so i did mhua haha

  • the first so should be you, sorry

  • Thanks for the video, good to know this.

  • wow i just heard about this, and im unsubing to MF, thats terrible.

  • dude that director dude is an ass for doing that

  • UMMM!

  • 10 minutes of "umm" , slow talking and clicking mouth noises.

    Also, the firefox t-shirt makes you look like a tool. Its 2009 ffs.

  • YOU TELL THEM DUDE

  • Dude that's horable

  • hey i totally understand what your talking about and it pisses me off i hope what your saying is genuene (sp) but thats just sick of what they have done. you have no reason to think thats drama your standing up for what you think and thats awsome and i stand by you on this.

  • sooo you're not getting involved by getting involved and stirring everything up?

    greg is the guy who wrote all the stuff, and the guy who directed it, and edited it, put in the money & had the idea, not scott. scott did sound. it says on the video, i think they would have noticed something sooner after seeing he was taking almost all the credit since the first video

  • I don't know all of the details, but what you said really stirred me. I went and read his blog and he has good points, though my first impressions of him make me think he's a huge douche. I hope that there will at least be more of the Retarded Policeman some day and that these two fighting groups could possibly be friends again. But, like I said, I don't know all of the details.

  • Comment removed

  • Boo friggin hoo......

  • who the hell are u and y are u particularly involved...

    and just cause u had chance to meet them is kinda not an excuse... LOL long distance friendship... LOL POOR baby is offended U SUCK>>> Greg all the way :DDD

  • who the hell are u and y are u particularly involved...

    and just cause u had chance to meet them is kinda not an excuse... LOL long distance friendship...

  • bad acting in the last 3 minutes. try again.

  • SAVE THE DRAMA FOR YOUR MAMA!

  • Oh let's all jump on the bandwagon. We should treat people like non-humans because they have a disability. Ohhh hooo hoo poo.

  • I think I will unsubscribe to Greg after reading this, it has really made me sick.

  • That is fucking horrible.....i'm glad you brought this to our attention..im slightly offended by the whole matter i know i dont have anything to do with it...but....im just pissed....

  • just get on with it

  • HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

  • I can't believe people like this guy make money by chatting away in front of their webcam and videos like this one: v=yVM_PgWnlmY

    are hardly seen. The YouTube world is a strange world. A world where talent means nothing. Oh well.

  • Right on Bro Fuck Greg Benson

  • see this makes sence. I understand now. I was super confused at first and there were insluts flying but to have an independent party makes sence. Thank you

  • Err, define independent? Because this is certainly not a neutral assessment, nor informed.

  • right on man, i respect you for making this video, and sharing your opinion on the matter. it did take kind of a long time to get the info out of you, but i can understand that you feel strongly so it musnt of been easy to say this on the world wide web.

  • um um um um um um um lets count how many times he can say um

  • Okay i cannot wait all this time for u to juss say u were in a video or sumthin bvcuz now im bored... Whut did u say ne ways?? in little words :]

  • DUDE Tell us whut happened already or if hes frkn retarded. u take for ever to tell a little story juss spit out nersd!! :]]] Hahah

  • Quite saying umm. You fag

  • That is... NOT... cool.

    I've never watched The Retarded Policeman, nor had I heard of it before watching this video. But I'm in movies, and that... just... I don't know... that's what poisons the world. And it could all be so wonderful! Thanks, Cory.

  • this is ridiculous!!! i didnt know mediocre films took advantage of them!! complete bullshit. boycott mediocre films fuck that

  • Comment removed

  • your soooooooooooooooo awesome

  • Thank you for sharing something you felt passionately about.

    It's VERY TOUGH to open yourself up publicly to something that you feel strongly on- especially when it could offend someone you esteem in some way.

    I commend you for choosing your words carefully, so many people just let it run and say, "oh well! " but it shows that you have a high regard for other people. Kudos. -Jyn

  • Corey, I've watched many of your vids, and a lot of those were candid talks with your viewers. I've always enjoyed that you try to be as frank and real when you speak as you can. This video shows me something more of you that I don't think we as viewers have seen before. From my perspective, I see a man of integrity, principle, and compassion. I've admired you and enjoyed your work, but I feel now I've come to respect you as well. Whatever the truth and circumstances are, you spoke your heart.

  • WTF WAT A RIP OFF STONE THAT MOTHA F*** sue that byt***

  • Corey, not trying to battle, just explain a point...YOU just featured the 14 year old kid doing the Star Wars tribute...are you giving him 100% of the income from the views?

    I mean, HE played the marimba without your help.

    But YOU came up with the original concept. I presume YOU did the editing. YOU uploaded it...and YOU put in the early work to establish the ApprenticeA Channel. YOU are entitled to decide what's fair. If he disagrees, he's entitled not to do business with you.

  • Very well put.

  • Greg did not do 100% of anything. The original agreement was 50/50. Greg may say differently, but he lies. The Perry Bros never asked for a penny more, they simply want was agreed upon FROM THE BEGINNING.

    Being there from the beginning = Actually knowing what happened VS

    Pure speculation = Wrong summation

    Also, Josh was already in a TV series and in a movie. Greg did not make him as you say. The person who should be credited with that is his brother.

  • Corey, love you brother, but welcome to the entertainment industry. It's UBER important to get an agreement of profit division upfront...and you need to understand that not all income is profit. The producer takes on a LOT of risk, and should be appropriately compensated. Your friends were exploited. To those on the outside, that can mean "taken advantage of", but to those in the industry, it means someone took the time to take an unknown and turn them into a commodity.

    Experience=Understanding

  • hallo,ich finde,alles was du machst,sehr"kreativ!

    du musst dich doch jetzt in schwiegigkeiten gebracht haben,oder?

    nun ja,du hast ja immernoch:"FIREFOX"

    aber trotzdem,komm mal zu uns!

    :PRO SIEBEN:TV TOTAL

  • I'm really glad you made this video. It's great to see that a neutral party could clear things up, and show what has happened. It really sucks to see that happened.

    You did a good thing to make this video.

  • as someone involved in the Down syndrome community, I was moved to see someone outside of it so passionate about people's rights. sad to say that people with Down syndrome are being ripped off EVERYwhere, not just on YouTube :( would love if you could get involved somehow and help right this wrong!!!

    keep up the good work man, you're too awesome :)

  • If you say, "um" one more time your doppleganger will cut you. Other than that, your video's ace.

  • i only saw this video about this matter but im sure the big guy who cut their checks is getting all the money alone or with the non retarded brother

  • DONT unsubscribe the point is to support them!! O_O JEEZZZZZZZ

  • im unsubscribing right now

    greg i am dissapointed

  • i agreeee!!!!!!!!!!!vANd 8ts hallloween nightt and iom drunk as fuucck !!! zLOong live 6the ponceman!!!!

  • according to greg they never negiciated a contract in the first place and in the beginning they did it for free

    look at gregs responce and blog

    at least read the other side of the story
