Anyone else find Ryan Connelly the Film Riot guy pretty much unbearable to watch?

I don't wanna ***** about him, I just wonder if I am the only person in the filmmaking community who thinks he's annoying. I feel like I am.
I always persevere on the off chance one of the videos is helpful, but it's always a struggle. Am I really alone?
 
There's no shortage of annoying people out there, but they aren't annoying to everyone. I know I'm on that list. We're all different, see things in different ways, and like what we like. So be it.
 
He talks really fast, all the time. You get the impression that he writes all his lines prior to recording and rushes through them and it gets kind of old. On the other end of the stick is Frugal Filmmaker who uses no cuts or graphics really and speaks in a somewhat slow monotone.

The dude who nails it on delivery is Andrew Kramer. Granted the material is different, since you're watching what he's doing in AE he doesn't have to talk constantly, but he doesn't rush and he keeps you engaged with dumb jokes so you don't tune out like on other tutorials.
 
He is annoying. I think like Justin said, he speaks to fast, which makes his message come across as insignificant, or not worthy of giving the subject a proper amount of time. But, I have to say, they do help many new and young filmmakers with production and gear, they do a lot diy stuff. I recently watched a music vid he did, which was really good, so that gave a new found respect as a filmmaker.

I think off cam, they would be different and more than likely pretty cool guys. Thats just my opinion though.
 
I don't find it out of style when matched against vsauce, sxephil or Hank from the vlogbrothers. I guess I'm just used to it so I never thought about it.
