 Brain Dump (Web Animation)
comment
Brain Dump is an online animated series by HotDiggedyDemon, where the host, Max Gilardi, mainly talks about recent movies (usually specific elements of said film like the message) in a hilariously cynical and Self-Deprecation-filled fashion. Eventually, the show developed a story arc involving disagreements between its three main characters, and explored Max's fixation on his YouTube career as a whole, with episodes taking on a true Bait-and-Switch format. The first episode, discussing the message of Zootopia, aired on YouTube September 2, 2016.In his reviews, Max is accompanied by his sentient computer/television hybrid, Burnbot, and his annoying cartoon ghost roommate, Goofball. These three characters have their own sheet here.

Clickbait Gag
 Brain Dump (Web Animation) / int_1d53cca0
comment
Clickbait Gag: The show parodies the concept of clickbait a few times, with one episode claiming that Rogue One was discreetly pushing some sort of pro-choice agenda, only for Max and Goofball to end up spending half of the episode arguing back and forth over Grandma Brownie's Chocolate Chunker Wunker Bunkers (Now with even bigger chunks of chocolate chunks!). The other half is Max complaining about some Fridge Logic surrounding the practicality of Astromech droids before realizing he should have thought about the title better. The Venom review does have a gimmick — Max fires off a bullet every so often from his shotgun. In addition, the actual review is about 2-3 minutes long, and the rest of the review is basically talking about how cool guns are.

Blatant Lies: Goofball's origin story in "How Goofball Died (REAL!!!)" claims that in life, he was an African-American homosexual super-agent who worked for President Trump, and robbed a bank to pay for his transgender lover's gender reassignment surgery, and was shot to death by said money. Max rightfully calls him out on his bullshit, saying his story is based directly on Dog Day Afternoon. Goofball tries to retort that the movie might have been based on his life, but Max points out in turn that the movie came out in 1975, and that Trump wasn't president of the United States when that movie was released, or when he and Goofball met each other for the first time.

By the end he realizes too late that he can't do his show alone, but doesn't know what to do to fix this.

Enforced Plug: Parodied in "What Is Fash Ism". Max meant to have a video explaining the eight or nine definitions of fascism, with a sponsorship of Raid: Shadow Legends, even having the logo on the screen the entire time. As usual, it gradually gets derailed when Goofball appears onscreen drinking what the latter claims to be a glass of cum. When finding that the carton of milk wasn't even opened and becoming increasingly distressed, Max forced Goofball to vomit out the contents to get the answer, only succeeding in covering the logo with ectoplasm. And at the most inopportune time, the CEO of Raid: Shadow Legendsnote Who is portrayed as a literal demon and mob boss named "Ray D. Shadolegend" calls Max and makes some very thinly-veiled threats toward him and his extended family.

Norse by Norsewest: The PewDiePie parody who visits Max claims to come from a magical place which he vehemently insists on calling "Swooden", and eventually teleports Max there via a song number, showing the place to be some weird stereotypical Sugar Bowl version of Sweden, heavily filtered through the lense of Dr. Seuss's works. Max lampshades upon returning from "Swooden".

In it, Alex is outwardly rude to everyone around him and wastes time on his phone to cope with his problems and with how unhappy he is deep down. The emojis in his phone, noticing his plight, decide to go on a quest to somehow send a message, telling him to put down his phone for five minutes and deal with his problems head-on by actually talking to his parents.

What Measure Is a Non-Human?
 Brain Dump (Web Animation) / int_9c45b5a2
comment
What Measure Is a Non-Human?: Discussed in the Grinch video. After a lengthy back-and-forth between Max and Goofball about which of them Burnbot hates more, Max denies Goofball's claim that Burnbot thinks the show sucks, his reasoning being that Burnbot - despite being well-established by this point as just as much a living, thinking being as Max and Goofball - is just a computer and can't think. Max refuses to apologize for saying this, going off into a tangent about how Burnbot is just an inanimate appliance whose circuits and computer chips are incapable of producing anything similar to human thought and emotion (even singing a brief song about how she's just a bunch of mechanical parts and will never know anything about how the human mind works) - all of this he says right in front of a despondent Burnbot, who snaps, electrocutes Max, and leaves him to do his show without her help. It should be noted that Goofball is genuinely offended by Max's comments here, and he repeatedly argues that Burnbot has thoughts and feelings just like everyone else, but Max refuses to hear him out.

Hey, You!: Goofball only ever refers to Max as "Creep", and has never once addressed him by name, even when flirting with him. In "What Is Fash Ism?", when a neighbor asks Goofball if he and Max can attend a party she's planning, Goofball genuinely does not appear to know who "Max" is, and it takes him a moment to realize that "Max" is the Creep.

You'd expect such an insulting cynic infamous for his love of extreme Black Comedy to be the most caustic of all critics, but Max is actually fair and levelheaded to all movies, even those he dislikes. Although he still does sometimes dip into this trope, but it's almost always to parody or make fun of the trope rather than seriously exemplify it. His review of Moana shows him at his angriest as a critic, but his anger is a reflection upon how Moana as a character exemplifies everything that Max cannot have in his own life. "DID THE EMOJI MOVIE HAVE TO BE BAD?" has him scolding these types of critics. While in agreement The Emoji Movie was bad, he was still disappointed that all the reviews for this movie he seen were "destructive rather than constructive".

Take That!: While not mentioned by name, a throwaway line in "Deadpool Is Scamming You!" indicates Max dosen't think well on PewDiePie. Or T-Series for that matter. 1: Girls should not fight or go on dangerous, exciting adventures; they should only go to school. 2: Women should not have breasts. And if they do have breasts, they will either be exiled to an island or their breasts will be taken from them in painful surgical procedures. note Miss Sara Bellum was removed from the show in-universe because the show's creators thought she was "inappropriate". Ms. Keane, who had a modest chest size in the original show, is now inexplicably completely flat-chested. 3: Men are inexpendable, but women are replaceable.note With the sole exception of Ms. Keane, all of the returning female characters had their voice actors replaced. Meanwhile, every single major male character has their original voice actors reprising their original roles.

"Stop Having Fun" Guys: Invoked and discussed. In his video on Apu, Max notes that many of the legitimate claims made by the social justice movement in recent years have been shouted down for being "too sensitive", and painted as wanting everything completely sanitized, with their most vocal critics claiming that they're this trope.

Let's See YOU Do Better!: Max holds this mentality in regards to film criticism in ''"DID THE EMOJI MOVIE HAVE TO BE BAD?" where he believes that if you're going to criticize a movie, you should do so in a constructive manner and talk about what would you have done if you made the movie.

Shout-Out
 Brain Dump (Web Animation) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: As a character, Goofball may be inspired by The Nostalgia Critic's take on Casper. A movie reviewer is haunted by an annoying ghost who goes out of his way to antagonize said reviewer- they're practically clones of each other, even to the point of sounding similar. In the Moana review, Goofball sings No Girls Toy in an attempt to cheer Max up. It works... until Max strangles him, Simpsons style. Burnbot's insult at the end of the video on thePowerpuff Girls reboot is an insult used by Chris O'Neill in this Steam Train video. In the Grinch review, Max describes Burnbot by singing part of Scooter Computer and Mr. Chips. In that same review, Max calls Burnbot "inanimate". Burnbot asks, "Does this feel inanimate to you, punk?" and shocks him. In the Dungeons & Dragons review, Goofball wears Link's clothes while music from Majora's Mask plays as he imagines himself finding a pretty mermaid in a cave. He also calls Max "Creepshow" at the beginning of the episode.

Cerebus Syndrome: As the series evolved, it began to succumb to Continuity Creep and developing story arcs centering around Max's mental health, self-esteem, and relationships with Burnbot and Goofball. The episode titles/descriptions also continued to become more and more detached from the plots of the videos themselves (other than occasionally referencing that the video had nothing to do with the title).

Whole-Plot Reference: His Grinch video is an obtuse adaptation of the titular story that showcases how Max believes the Grinch should be portrayed with himself as the Grinch, Goofball as the Whos, and Burnbot as Max (the dog).

Malicious Misnaming: Shadolegend in "What Is Fash Ism?" continually mispronounces Max's last name with a hard G, despite Max's attempts to correct him, as he clearly considers Max with an apathetic sense of loathing and serfdom.

Once per Episode: At the end of every episode, Burnbot generates a hammy, long-winded insult for Max to shout out. The sole exception is in "IS BATMAN VS SUPERMAN REALLY THAT BAD?", in which she instead gives the audience a cute wink.

Running Gag: Max insufferably reminding the audience that he won "#1 show on in the internet" in his Sausage Party review. In general, in some episodes Max usually says "Goofball, do you mind? Can't you see I'm (shining whatever point he was trying to make in a negative light)?" DANGEROUS SOCIOPATH CALL THE POLICE

Never Trust a Title

Never Trust a Title: One of the series' main shticks. Every episode has an extremely clickbait-y title and thumbnail that either exaggerates his opinion or has nothing to do with the episode — the most notable example being "THEORY: ROGUE ONE IS PRO-ABORTION," where most of the episode is spent on an Overly Long Gag parodying Product Placement, and his actual "rant" about Rogue One winds up being about R2-D2's function as a robot.

The whole "ROGUE ONE IS PRO-ABORTION" gets stuck in a loop once Goofball asks Max if he wants a bowl of Grandma Brownie's Chocolate Chunker Wunker Bunkers (Now with even bigger chunks of chocolate chunks!), the name said in full pretty much every time, and Max getting side tracked to the point that he can't even remember what the point of the video was by the end of it.

Pet the Dog: Despite claiming it's only because he doesn't enjoy making Max's life miserable because he's already miserable, Goofball makes a genuine attempt to cheer Max up during one of his 'Anxiety Days'. It takes Goofball singing a line from "No Girl's Toy" to even get Max off the floor, and it works, only for Max to strangle him after the fact. The end of the Halloween episode is one of these for Goofball as well, as it reveals his seething hatred for his sister's abusive husband Slimer. After it's revealed he physically abuses her as well, he leaves to comfort her.
