    I did a report on Rube Goldberg when I was in school. Didn't know about his kids changing their names.

    As a recovering L4D addict, I am disappointed by the lack of Boomers in Rocketboom...

    i dont live anywhere near NYC, and thats the reason i like the NYC parts. Its interesting to see shops and people that live in such a big and vibrant city. Defs subscribing to all three!

    Rube Goldberg was a wonderfully witty cartoonist... An inspiration to all those of us who try and amuse in pictures and words...

  • @6235river
    @6235river 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @rossidude NYC is a big place; people around the world are interested in it. Like Paris or Hollywood, most people don't live there but they love to hear about it because it's two very entertaining cities. Same for NYC.

  • @JamesSkemp
    @JamesSkemp 14 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Granted, I've subscribed to all four, but glad to see you guys finally broke these different 'shows' up. (And RB NYC finally makes sense on what the exact purpose of those were.)

  • @adirmugrabi
    @adirmugrabi 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    finally ty rocketboom
    since i don't live in ny i have no interests in knowing what is there
    this lets me finely get only the relevant parts of rocketboom in my sub box

  • @Tanru2000
    @Tanru2000 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Tusserte Same here! I don't live near NYC or even in the USA, but it always gives me fantastic ideas about what I can do when I eventually visit NYC and also cool ideas for my own city (or to see if we have similar things to do). Also Ella is awesome!

  • @cantido38127
    @cantido38127 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @rossidude I disagree. The Rocketboom NYC videos are very informative. Though I don't live there or near there, I enjoy hearing about the things that Rocketboom covers there. NYC is so full of life and I feel that the videos show off the city's vibrancy. I loved the segment about Central Park because if it wasn't for Rocketboom, I would have never seen how beautiful the park is.

  • @edanny311
    @edanny311 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    Why the split? Now I gotta subscribe to 3 more channels! I enjoy all of Rocketboom. Keep it in one place.

  • @Axel1711-c6h
    @Axel1711-c6h 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    Kudos to MemeMolly for saying that anti-Hitler/Hirohito cartoons are "racist".
    It takes a great mind, to acknowledge the fact that the natural reaction to a declaration of war, do not disappear with the "race ideals" we have today.

  • @Stripdancer100
    @Stripdancer100 14 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    To me, this video was really educational. I've never thought that all those elaborate contraptions would have any inventor, it always looked that they were just everywhere in the movies and videos, and that idea seems to be quite simple, but look, here he is, the inventor himself...
    BTW, funny ending, even though I don't really think that that breakup was desperately needed... Almost all the videos of Rocketboom are cool and interesting, but there're not too many of them to be subdivided...

  • @bidaubadeadieu
    @bidaubadeadieu 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hmm, I have mixed feelings about you guys splitting up, but at the same time I don't really care about Rocketboom Tech or Rocketbeem NYC so I suppose it'll be more convenient.
    If you would be so kind, posting the links to each of the new channels in the description would be wonderful.

  • @Mthrndr01
    @Mthrndr01 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    KYM used to have its own channel. In fact, I was pretty aggravated when it got wrapped up in the greater rocketboom mass, since I only watch the KYM and the news things with Molly (and previously that odd little girl that had a quirky charm to her).

  • @panique365
    @panique365 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love Rocketboom. The split up is a little weird, but I don't don't mind.

  • @serpentisma
    @serpentisma 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Anthony883 actually, before she got on with rocketboom, she went by the name of mememolly, as that is the name of her personal channel. she still goes by that name from time to time.

    @BeatPeet still you can just press the x in the upper right corner of the video thumbnail in your subscription thingie or you can just not watch it

  • @rossidude
    @rossidude 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @quixgofar no, I don't live in the USA. I don't intend on going there. I don't want to hear about New York just the same as I don't want to hear about Hollywood, London, Paris or any of those places. I'd like something like it for Sweden though - as I'm wanting to go there at some point.

  • @DaThings
    @DaThings 14 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I, for one, like the idea of channel splitting. Admit it, most everyone here subscribed for know your meme, but stuck around for Molly.

  • @jiseri

    I'm glad they're finally each getting their own channel.

  • @Tanru2000

  • @ChiefRepublic
    @ChiefRepublic 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    Finally KnowYourMeme has its own channel. But kinda sad, I started watching this channel because of it and I didn't like all the other stuff but I have come to love Ellie's tech advise, molly's daily news, and ellas reports. And also the interesting videos that sometimes are put up here. I LOVE ROCKETBOOM.

  • @Birdboy029
    @Birdboy029 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    Rube Goldberg went to my highschool!!! Like, 100 years before me, literally.
    I just grduated and am on my way to becoming a cartoonist myself! :D
    Cool ending--I'm gonna subscribe to all the channels.

  • @Tanru2000
    @Tanru2000 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Nicksbia I too, would rather it all on one channel, but I guess they have their reasons. Also the logos are pretty cool.

    @allluckyseven 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    Oh, wow. Never knew Rube Goldberg was a cartoonist in the first place.
    And this is the first time I ever saw a picture of Bill Waterson! Never thought he'd sported a 'stache.
    You guys should do a video about Calvin and Hobbes!

  • @misterbearbe
    @misterbearbe 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    You should make a video about Dr. Nakamats he invented loads of products we use everyday or used to atleast such as the floppy disk.

  • @wallysaruman

    @Anthony883: well there is the video 'the death of mememolly' from September 25, 2007 where she refers to herself as mememolly. it's a good video too, you've probably forgotten it, check it out all over again!

  • @rukulathegamer
    @rukulathegamer 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    Splitting up is a smart thing to do, i think.. Some people are here for only molly, and some people, only for KYM etc, even tho some people like it all, others probably don't like having their "Subscriptions" tab on the homepage spammed with videos that doesn't interest them.

  • @Venomonous

  • @sidremus
    @sidremus 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think its a really good idea to split rocketboom into several channels! by that its much more easy to get just the things your are really interested in! for me, tech never was that interesting, but the rest is the best!

    same follows for ella
    and if you want them all, you get them all
    simple as that

    Interesting that the day ROCKETBOOM splits into four seperate channels, Molly is discussing Rube Goldberg. Something simple and elegant made overly complicated? Sound familiar? Oh well, I'll subscribe to them all and see how it goes. Something tells me that Mr. Baron owns 51 % or more of each of these new channels. He's a sly one.

    @Anthony883 well the same can be said if you've never talked to her, either, sir. the way i've always taken it is because people like nat from communitychannel have called her that, and she's referred herself to that name in a few of her videos. the way i've always seen it is you get called by the name of your channel. i mean, look how you had to reply to me for god's sake. did you call me by my real name, or did you reply by my channel name?
