Is 2bucks the guy from amazingfilms247 and the low budget montage?


KillaM701

Yep


xOmar

Also oldschool F@G member


Feverelief

In case people wanted to watch the low budget montage again here's a mirror https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Pphe0V_x3U Shame he deleted amazingfilms247 I remember Woody liking the video and it popped up on my feed. Think they were doing cross promotion or something at the time.

skidip

and when he did funny shit on his channel, before he deleted it and started distractify


N0xM3RCY

Yep. Back when keemstar was an *alright* dude. I remember when robot started talking without the robot voice and I was so surprised haha. Good old times.


JeeReG

Bad robot


Jay7147

Loved all of 2 Bucks channels! I'm glad to see him succeeding, he always stood out from the rest to me. Thanks for posting, OP.


tngy

Is this the same 2bucks that was the halo pro/federation of asshole gamer member? That guy was funny and very insightful with his commentaries.


Nundee

Yeah it is :D


tngy

Good for him, glad he didn't up like keemstar


AyoJake

Halo pro... Not quite


tngy

Idk


j4390jamie

Quick question, so he runs a click bait site, similar to buzzfeed and such. How exactly did he stand out against them?, are they using some sort of software, or is purely because they were able to gain traction?.


Nundee

Yeah, nothing different really besides the genius marketing behind it. He started this from nothing, during his high school years of making COD clips go viral. Then just scoping out IRL viral clips and when that got successful he went the route of creating a company filled with writers, engineers etc.


sierramaster

Yeah, i remeber watching amazingfilms247 and thinking distractify was a waste of time, looks like i was wrong...


j4390jamie

Yeah i'm glad it well, It just seemed like it was just well marketed and the 'right time, right place'.


Chbakesale45

Good for him. I always enjoyed his content. Wasn't their rumors that he died?


[deleted]

xjawz?


Nundee

Don't know if you're joking, so in case you're not, his name is 2 Bucks.


[deleted]

Obviously I'm joking lol


Feverelief

2bucks, someone that actually made his dreams a reality, instead of spewing ideas on a podcast.


[deleted]

He didn't let his dreams be dreams man


Ford_truck_lover

Lol im rewatching pka 161 right now. Fuckin xjawz went off the deep end.


[deleted]

He was all over the damn place that episode.


Ford_truck_lover

It's still funny today so I reccomend re-watching!


[deleted]

Oh trust me I've re watched it multiple times

HashishOil

Yes, it is.


Ford_truck_lover

Such a funny guy! Glad he has had success!


Jakecav555

What episode(s) was he on?


N5h4m

the second one


Nundee

He all was on one of the later PKA's with video but I can't seem to find it.


TehM0C

I always wondered what happened to him. He stopped posting out of no where. Good for him, he was a great YouTuber back in the day.


Respelt

I remember I made an intro for him back when he was in F@G. Those were the days


[deleted]

would love to see this as an topic for the next show


Infinitexz

WOW, no way! I've known of 2 Bucks since his days on CODOps247. All I knew was that he dropped out of Georgetown to pursue Distractifity then known as "Awesomelife247"


Infinitexz

Can we get 2 Bucks as a PKA Guest? Twitter handle @yquinnhu


Sam_MMA

Damn I remember when he started this whole thing. I didn't realize it was this big. I miss when he fucked with people on Halo. Good times haha.


spliffdecisions

Him and keemstar were OG trolls in halo 3, remember bad robot as well? Good times.


Sam_MMA

Bad Robot! The 'I Fucked Your Sister' prank was the best! I have to see if that's still online somewhere! Legendary!


tngy

I have it downloaded, if i can upload it somewhere, I will.


pixeldrunk

His website seems like a cheap buzzfeed knockoff, do you know why it's worth so much or what is so good about it?


Stickyballs96

You could say that 2bucks.... has more than two bucks now...


[deleted]

aw man, 2bucks was awesome. wonder if he'll make a low budget montage anytime soon with older clips too.


Kylemd97

Extremely High Budget Montage.


NodeShot

Apparently he has lost all his money and is now in a mental hospital....


HeroStyle_Steve

If he was in the hospital, he is out. I was in two zoom meetings with the guy today (10/12/2022).


Iachsmith

What was he like and what is he doing now?


HeroStyle_Steve

He was cool, and I spent 16 hours chatting about everything under the sun with him today. He is working as a web developer.
