  • You know, I was looking for the video with you singing "I smell a BLT" but then I go and find an honest dude laying out the level of respect he gives for his fans. It's cool to see guys like rocco who would never want to betray our respect for him. I bet all you guys at Mega64 are like that. Now where the hell is that BLT video.

  • <3

  • I want to goto a bar with Rocco and buy him a drink, what a bad ass.

  • I saw Twin Peaks because of this video and now I can finally offer my opinion, though it's a bit late.

    I really see the points in the middle of season 2 where the show kind of dropped off in eventfulness, but I also had motivation to keep watching because then I really cared about everyone. Twin Peaks doesn't always make the most sense with all its supernatural stuff, but it really has a way of making you care. I liked that the show really felt "new" despite being 2 decades old.

  • Twin Peaks has a subtle draw to it. The characters are unique and enjoyable. I found that the lack of any real detailed character back story, besides of course slowly learning about Laura Palmer, added to the mystery of the show as a whole. I do wish the second season was more to the point.

    Also, if you liked the good and evil aspects of the show, I would highly recommend giving the 2 season HBO series Carnivale a gander if you haven't already.(this goes for anyone reading this long ass comment)

  • @izeekio I'm going to watch Carnivale solely because of your comment. Don't let me down :')

  • Seeing as Twin Peaks is making you think about it like this and also being David Lunch I will give it a watch . 2 seasons , if its netflix instant I could do that in 3 days or so. You were one of the driving forces for me watching Lost and that was so amazing I watched it in a month (very nice of Derrik to spoil season 6 on the podcast) But yeah I Will give this show a watch.

  • Oh, too long.

  • not in 1080p? Unsubbed.

  • Finished the series yesterday, just finished watching the film.

    The series:

    Obviously, the arc around Dale, Laura and BOB is the show's main draw, but I feel like the other character's were just as important to the experience. I think if the show were purely about Cooper, a lot of the show's charm would be lost. I think it was smart for the show to explore other aspects of Twin Peaks. Too much so near the end? Maybe. I think it just helped that there were other things going on.

    The movie:

    Meh

  • Drink every time he says anyway! :)

  • I watched this video last week but i came back today cause i just realised that i could use your example to explain exactly how i feel about the mega64 crew. When i first watched some videos of you i though "oh ok funny stuff" but then when i subscribed and watched all of your mega64 videos and the majority of your personnal videos i started caring about you, your well being and your opinions. And when you said that this month was great for you that was a relief for me in all seriousness..

  • @ShinOuri All this caring eventually turned into an urge to express how i feel about you guys and the last thing that can be done to fullfil those emotions is to actually meet all of you in person. Which id love to but seems impossible. With love and respect i give you my regards from Greece, i hope ill meet you someday guys ;)

  • Hahaha, good ending

  • hahaha it's crazy how he changes in the video. try watching the first 15 seconds then skip to like 14:35 lol

  • Racism?

  • I hope you get, in a fucking, CAR WRECK....a motherfucking car wreck....so we can watch your vlogs from heaven

  • The end of this video is quote worthy.

  • Really wish I could be kidding when i say i almost cried at the end of this . . .

  • @haseso88 Yeah man the super stretchy thumb part got to me too.

  • I honestly think this whole vlogging ordeal was actually a good idea, even though you may not like to do it. You did clarify a lot of things going around Mega64 and what's going on as of these past few weeks.

    You should do this more often, but mostly on rare occasions just to have a 1 on 1 session with you and the viewers of Mega64 to see how everything is.

    I enjoyed listening, good shit Rocco.

  • I really like these videos you should do this more.....

  • what freeway are you on?

  • you are my fucking role model

  • you see an asian girl and right hand got tired? DUHHHHEEEHHHHH!!!!!!!

  • I've yet to see Twin Peaks, but in my a-level English editorial exam our question was on Twin Peaks. We had a week to go through a 50 page booklet of magazine reviews, posters, website reviews, all this kinda stuff - and then at the end of the week we had an exam on editing the information together in two hours. I think I 'made' one of those inserts you find in DVD boxsets. Which is just ridiculous, and I'll never forgive the English board for spoiling what SEEMS to be a fantastic show!

  • did you see an asian girl and your right arms getting tired whats going on?

  • if i had stronger powers I'd be Piccolo.

  • You are absolutely right about the youtubers being liars when asking for community response. they are just trying to get more pageviews.

  • Comment removed

  • Rocco, you are so awesome!

  • Take more long drives on the freeday, quality videos come from it.

  • you got sick because you're stressed out and don't move around enough. Watch out for yourself!

  • You rule, Rocco. I've not seen Twin Peaks...one day...

  • 14:31- Word.

  • Wow my respect for Rocco and co. was already pretty high, but it went up even more after this.

    David Lynch is great. I gotta recommend Lost Highway and Mulholland Drive from him. Great psychological thriller films.

  • You peaked my interest in the serious (pun intended) I might watch it someday when I'm done with House (that show is endless 7 seasons :o).

  • Lynch is great. Mulholland drive, Eraserhead and Blue Velvet are all amazing. Go for it Rocky.

  • I agree with the fuck you to the audience opinion

  • That GPS is a real dick.

  • i watched this whole video.

    good lookin out.

  • Oh please don't kill off Ferp, I care about him so much!

  • You could learn real drums, that's more excercise.

  • Rocco, take some fucking Fat Burn pills and rock the Drums on RockBand. Try to search for SAN Tight!

  • I can't think of a good use for super stretchy thumbs if I had them. Sorry Rocco.

  • Rocco I'm pretty much addicted to GH drumming, but I got the double pedal and stuff. I couldn't get into rock band. I find it much harder to read the notes and the game freezes my xbox a lot.

  • Rocco laying down some youtube truth at the 14:30 mark. I'm glad that was addressed about the bullshit that people do at the end of videos because they treat us as being fucking dumb. It's really insulting to treat people as simplistic morons.

  • You bring up a good point. People just ask the questions so they get featured on "Most commented". They also try to whore out the system.."LIKE THIS VIDEO, 10K LIKES AND I RELEASE A VIDEO LOLZ". It's just sad. Thanks for mentioning this.

  • I have the same glasses.

  • Comment removed

  • I love you, man.

  • give me a middle finger, new option coming soon

  • Deadly Premonition. Buy that game for the 360 and try it out. It's basically the Japanese trying to make their own Twin Peaks. It's insane, poorly made, and possibly one of the greatest games made this decade.

  • @wanderingknitter 2010 was a pretty eventful year for gaming. But even with Mass Effect 2, Bad Company 2, Assassin's Creed 2, Red Dead Redemption, Starcraft 2, Amnesia, Reach, Civilization 5, Dead Rising 2, and New Vegas-among many others-Deadly Premonition STILL gets my vote for game of the year.

  • Half way through this deo I got the worst explosive diarrhea. I think it's safe to say this video is the cause.

    And thanks about the comments thing. That's one thing I love about Mega64 - you guys genuinely care about your fans.

  • Half way through this deo I got the worst explosive diarrhea. I think it's safe to say this video is the cause.

  • Half way through this deo I got the worst explosive diarrhea.

  • If I had super stretchy thumbs I would give the world's biggest thumbs up to you.

  • For some reason this made me want to watch Storecast.

  • I don't always have time to watch long videos, but this was quality stuff. As long as your long videos are as well done as this one, I, for one, am happy to watch.

  • Rocco, you a such an inspiration. Your honesty and commitment to cutting through bullshit is what gives--with the input of Derrick and Shawn (spl?) of course-- mega64 it's charming tone. Keep being a champ.

  • (Shh! - Internal Dogfood)

  • you should watch the complete movie inland empire by david lynch

  • I never saw the show before but after what you said I may get into it. Also thank you for your honesty Rocco.

  • I liked how the video doubled in length when it was supposed to be ending.

  • Anyway, uh...

  • This is why I love Mega 64 (: thanks Rocco, you guys are the best.

  • Wow, thanks Rocco =). That last 3 mins of your vid gave me a different perspective of you. I've always thought you were a genuine and honest guy, but I didn't realize how caring you are for your fans. Obviously I knew you liked us, but that speech definitely made me feel like you treat everyone individually, and you don't clump us together as fanboys, "monsters", etc. Thanks Rocco :D I'm proud to be a Mega64 fan

  • I think I saw part of that TV movie once or it might have actually been something else. Well whatever it was it looked interesting and I've heard some interesting things about David Lynch.

  • Twin Peaks is one of my favorite shows of all time. The end of the Laura Palmer arc was the peak but I still think the show was good after that and I think they made a pretty good transition to Cooper's new mission etc. It felt like anything could happen at any point in time but they always ended on a positive note with them eating pie at the diner. That's why I actually liked the ending. It all went real bad real fast in the last two eps, though the final scene was far from ideal.

  • I liked this vid. Haven't watched Twin Peaks, sorry I have no opinion to offer.

  • "There's some even bigger secrets coming... very soon. There's something big on the way. I've been keeping secrets a little too long. And I think I'm ready to reveal them... very soon."

    Poor Rocco. Here really needs to take a dump, huh?

  • I thought they were talking about the Muhammad video.

    I saw the grammar error.

  • Twin Peaks was good, I finished it the other day as well. The David Lynch episodes were the best by far. Dick Tremayne was the worst piece of shit character and I loathed each moment he was on screen. It did fall off in a big way but I think Kyle MacLachlan kept the show interesting and Dale Cooper is the best character of any show I have ever seen, I loved his performance and his personality.

  • you feeling retarded?

  • Ricky Bizzle laying down the 411 and crusing through the hood like a balla with his 20 inch rims, bitches

  • I love these long vlogs so keep it going; we get a lot of videos from you guys but never any that seem longer than 3 minutes (feels more personable this way). And it's funny you mentioned Twin Peaks in the way you did, I never really heeded much attention to internet talk about the series (just enough to learn that some of the guys on Team Silent used it as inspiration for Silent Hill) but after the first season I felt it a bit of a chore to watch and NEVER finished it. The first season seemed

  • @ThyChrysanthemum ... much more interesting and for some reason I just kinda put it off to watch to move onto other shows and series' and never found myself coming back to the series. I think subconsciously I didn't like the second half of the show as much. The detective character I did like (was that the Cooper guy you mentioned, it's been a few years since I've watched) but not enough to hold interest.

    Keep these long vids coming. We wanna see the real guys behind Mega64 and who they are =)

  • Really appreciate the end of the video! Though I haven't seen Twin Peaks yet, well done Duke Botte! In the future I suggest a Rocco Vloggin' Feature film. Surely you could talk for 85 minutes!

  • Nothing beats sincere sincerity. Thanks.

  • It's like what Mistah Chi City said, they're just trying to make it seem like people feel like they're interacting with the youtubers.

    Btw, you should prove Garrett wrong (if you can) by showing how many people watched past 4 minutes lol. :D

  • Well, what would you do if you had super stretchy thumbs?

  • is this the skit where your arms got tired?

  • I cared about the characters at the end of version 3.

  • Rocco Botte: Stickin' it to the man one vlog at a time.

  • As wishy washy as it was. I really appreciated the last few minutes of this video Rocco. I've been a fan for at least 5 years and i still haven't seen a video that i dislike from Mega64. Keep up the good work!

  • the first bit feels like a poetry slam.

    "YOU CAN SEE MY EYES/ON YOUR CAMERA/COMING THROUGH YOUR TELEVISION SET/ELECTRIFYIN'/LADIES/WOMEN WORSHIP ME/MEN RESPECT ME"

  • please show us a 30 minute video of your man tits

  • Comment removed

  • Mulholland Drive is considered one of David Lynch's more accessible works, but Eraserhead is also amazing (and somewhat disturbing). If you're interested in something short, look into his serial RABBITS. You can find the whole thing online somewhere / on youtube. There should be 8 or 9 episodes, if I remember correctly.

  • I watched twin peaks season 1 , the movie and then about 7 eps of season 2. I then stopped and have felt no need to return to the show yet. Everyone i know season 2 is shit and i found myself agreeing from the little i saw.

  • I've been getting into Twin Peaks, but it felt really slow so far.

    Always head of the show before, but I was born a couple of years late to watch it on TV.

  • Twin Peaks was great until the end of the Laura Palmer story in season 2, then not much good I thought until the finale. Good show overall definitely.

  • i...dont know what twin peaks is. i apologize sincerely.

  • real shit son

  • fuck you

  • Initiate slow clap.

  • Rocco, I frankly like your 4 minute + videos more than the short ones.

    Do more of these!!

    And fuck garret

  • They're gonna have to make a new law about vlogging and driving.

  • If you wanna watch a good David Lynch movie, watch Eraserhead.

    Some people may disagree with me but I think it's a very good movie, whatever you do don't go into it thinking that it will make sense the first or seventh watch.

    But still very good/creepy movie

    Also loved this video, keep them up :)

  • 16 MINUUUTTTEESSS...???? aight.

  • so weird, i started watching twin peaks on instant just last week because i caught up on doctor who and didnt know what to do with my life anymore. i think its fukin redik and fun to watch, im afraid if i take it too seriously it will just get crazier

  • I love how this started off as a "oh man, I need to make a video" and then it ended with a whole morality speech

  • You should really do this more often Rocco. I loved you a lot before, but fuck man, I WANT YOUR KIDS NOW. You're just genuine as fuck and a great guy all around. Respect.

  • euuuuuuuuuuuuuuggggghhhhhhhhhh­hhhhhhhhhhhh

  • I really want to watch Twin Peaks. I've only seen the first episode, and it looks like it could be good. (And thanks for that last part ;) )

  • lololololo epresador

  • Vlog videos without that sushi hating shit bag are 100000000 times better

  • rocco doesnt go on camera because he wants to hide his big luscious lips

  • 0:26 Rocco's happy face.

  • Some notes:

    1. Don't apologize so much, Rocco. You are a really cool guy who makes cool videos.

    2. I have no knowledge of David Lynch films outside of Eraserhead, which I think requires a bit of patience and a high tolerance for creepy shit.

    3. If I had super-stretchy thumbs, I would give thumbs up to people from far away.

    4. Man, I drum all the time to lose weight, too.

    5. Garret's just jealous because your >4 minute videos are better than his <4 minute videos.

  • Twin Peaks is the best show ever!

  • i feel like i had a h2h with rocco at the end....fandom validated

  • that was extremely dangerous rocco

  • Regrettably, I watched the movie "Fire Walk With Me" before actually watching the TV series, therefore completely spoiling the entire mystery of the show.

    I mean the only mystery left by that point is who/what killed the previous agent , and where the hell is Kiefer Sutherland's character ( both of which are never revealed).

    Overall, a decent show that makes no sense whatsoever, unless you watch it to its entirety, which is problematic since the box set doesn't have the first fucking episode.

  • Do not watch Mullholland Drive. The script was written for TV but was canned so it was converted into a film script. The film then had to become the equivalent to a television season. I'm sure the original script had a lot more depth but the end result is all bull shit. For the material they were given the actors and actresses did a fantastic job as well as the entire production crew but the script is worse than looking at David Lynch's liver spotted balls for two hours. Watch Eraserhead.

  • i appreciate you rocco, im with you all the way. i understand some big news is coming up, and i am psyched for whatever it is.

  • Great video Rocco, I have never watched Twin Peaks but I will start it now!

  • Comment removed

  • Rocco watch The Wire.

  • Glad you aren't listening to Garrett's stupid 4 minute rule XD

  • rocco if you want someone to move to california and cook for you guys i'll totally do it. i'd make whatever you guys want!

  • Your arms getting tired? What'd you see a little asian gi-...

  • I want more of this, it keeps me entertained while i'm doing other shit.

  • It's reassuring to hear that you care about the fans in this sort of manner.

    I was extremely surprised at the sincerity of this video.

  • That was actually a really awesome thing to say to your audience, and I hope you guys keep doing what your doing for a very long time to come.

  • It'd be cool if you did videos like this more often plus the other stuff you do.

  • That was an awesome statement about the fans at the end there Rocco. It's true that many of us are a little weird, which is why we like things like Timbo, but to address it like that when, and I agree with you, so many YouTube channels just go "leave a comment below, what would you do if whatever". It's obvious they don't read it and don't care. That was a genuinely awesome thing to do for the fans.

  • Skip to Twin Peaks talk: 9:16

  • rocco driving in the slow lane

  • Rocco, you're a genuinely awesome Youtuber. You do what you want and don't whore yourself out. You respect your audience and listen to them too (we know, you talked about comments and the little jokes we make!) Keep it up dude.

  • Oh damn it's Shaycarl!

  • I have only watched a couple episodes, but i will really check it out now, btw you got me to watch and love true blood so i really respect your opinion

  • I love you Rocco ;)

  • Nice to know that we're all one big happy group of friends at the Mega64 clubhouse, Rocco.

    Can't wait to see what you've got coming up.

  • That's a green screen he's in front of, Rocco can't drive.

  • I wonder why his right Arm was tired??

  • 9:42 Rocco as a black man

  • If i had super stretchy thumbs, i would use them to play my rock band drums all day.

  • Those people dont know shit about original. Also, if you crashed would you still upload the video?

  • BTW Rocco, I bet you were really into that Asian chick, Josie, from Twin Peaks, right?

  • @b1tt3rplacebo HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH ROCCO LIKES ASIAN LOOL!111

  • I first watched the Twin Peaks series because I had read it was a strong influence for Alan Wake and I had enjoyed the atmosphere of that game. I agree, like most people, that the transition from the Laura Palmer arc was done poorly, but overall I enjoyed the series for (1) the paranormal aspects (2) all the quirky/bizarre moments.

    A favorite moment for me is Dr. Jacoby's intro: after asking to tag along to visit Laura in the morgue, he starts feeling up the hulu skirt of the girl on his tie.

  • Twin Peaks is the shit. I'm a big fan of the series, I even have the soundtrack, my friends and I get into it and make references all the time. Message me telling me what you thought about the end of the finale with what happened to Cooper. Personally, I was pretty devastated.

  • Rocco you are perfect.

  • Rocco I'm sure everyone's told you this since you've watched Twin Peaks, but checkout Eraserhead by David Lynch. I thought it was a really weird/cool take on the dread of future and industrial life. Some people say it hits home pretty hard, some say they just like it because of its originality. I'm curious to hear your position!

    Also, very kind words Rocco, thank you.

  • this was some deep shit rocco..........

  • I respect you as well Rocco. I hope I can make it to a con to give you an awkward high-five.

  • Trim yo beard yo. You look 30 years older lol

  • Gonna listen to this while doing homework

  • I'm at episode 5 of season 2 of Twin Peaks and am loving it so far. I think there's a lot of similarities between Lost and Twin Peaks, specifically the really dark backstories of a lot of the characters and the paranormal tone. Cooper has a John Lock vibe to him as well.

  • did you see an asian girl and your right arms getting tired? UUUUUUUGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

  • Don't worry, the asian girls will love you for your money. Fluffiness is a sign of wealth.

  • Your lips are as red as ever

  • wait i am the only one who gets the elpresador impression?

  • That wasn't the GPS that was Rocco's girlfriend.. or maybe it's both....

  • i dont suppose you are driving an SRT8 DODGE CHARGER STRAIGHT UP BIBLICAL NIGHTMARIC BEAST

    IT DE-RICES RICERS

  • be currful driving and recording videos. could have been your last!

  • Rocco I havent finshed Twin Peaks. But I like what I've seen but I haven't finished the Laura arc. I like it but I can't pay attention to all the characters (I don't even remember all their names). It is different and I like it I just think I might have to finish it. hahaha theyre you go

  • hey rocco are you excited for E3?

  • Oops, I meant "Only watch till the first half of the second season."

  • For Twin Peaks I actually did take the route of only watching till the end of the Laura arc (I started watching the next episode after that conclusion and realized I that I wasn't interested in the rest of the series since it seemed like one big side-story) and I don't regret it since as far as I'm concerned (from what I saw) it was a great series overall. And when I do recommend the show to people I like to preface it by saying something like "only watch till the first half " just to clarify.

  • Rocco blasted by at 300 miles per hour, vloggin' his heart out when midway through a sentence he remembered that he really felt blessed to have such good friends through Mega64. Not just casual friends, but co-workers too, and always there for him when he wanted to laugh, to confide in someone, to be with. He felt, at that moment, like he was complete. He was leading a great life, surrounded by great people, and had many admirers. He glanced at the passing trees, and thought, "I've made it."

  • 4^2

  • 4^4

  • Thank you Rocco.

  • so anyway um

  • I saw a comment on a vid where Rocco actually turned away the camera from his face because the light was too strong, and someone commented with "The new Iphone 4 can repel Rocco's face from the camera?! THE TECHNOLOGY IS HERE!"

  • your beautiful
