Have to say I’m getting bored of Mammoth Club. To others’ points, the all ears team now seems to have really come together and I’m entertained by them and their content even without a trip planned (although I am a DVC member so it’s always a possibility one might come up). Lately I find myself skipping Mammoth videos if I’m not pulled in by the thumbnail or title, or if I’ve seen it before. (Ex: all ears and the dis both released their video of the new Minions food way before MAM did, at that point I didn’t need to see another review). I found Molly entertaining on AE but it’s just been a lot of repetitive content. And honestly I was a patreon member at their start but have since canceled that. I believe in giving something to a creator when I enjoy and take in their content and do for other creators even at their lowest level, but I just didn’t see the value from MAM anymore.

I agree! I have really been loving the AE content lately. It's nice seeing different faces and perspectives and feel like I get more out of their videos.
I got 10 minutes into the Harry Potter secrets video and clicked off. Just repeats things she's said in other videos. I bet the only reason it was made was because she mentioned doing it in the minion's video (or another recent one, they all run together) and the discord superfans encouraged it. So twoish days later, there it was.
I also half-watched the one about Avenger's Campus they released today. If I hadn't needed the background noise and had nothing else to watch, I would have skipped it more than likely.
More confirmation that Molly wasn't the creative genius at AE. I'm sure she'll still snag in plenty of viewers, but I can't imagine that if Max is going to be on more that it will be a boon to their channel. However many are in the discord will be close to their views on average moving forward. I can't imagine living my life based on what a tiny group of MAM fam strangers on the internet tell you to do.

100 HP secrets was too much, too fast, and yes, many were on repeat. Like you I'm only about 15 minutes in and bored. I'll click the tab every so often and get another minute or two in. This is going to take forever.
My problems with this video in particular, are first, they're not secrets, they're tidbits.
And second, I wish she had broken it up, into several videos over a year, maybe 20-25 items per video, spending just a bit more time on each.
Lastly, she's too hyped up. She needs to cal, her voice down
I lied, Lastly, make the items more than just looks at what's written on a wall or a box. I don't need or want that. Get into details of the team member costumes, show features or perhaps ride mechanics.
I feel like those written word details need to be left for people to discover on their own.

Absolutely. That was one of THE best parts about the old AE. Jack Spence (don't know what happened to him?) would give a bunch of details etc., but not everything. He would say take time to stop and notice the details. This was a good 15 or so years ago.
I feel the same way—I don’t watch consistently. And when they posted the secrets video, I had to go back to look because I was SURE they did that as one of their first videos. I was right…they posted an hour long secrets of the Wizarding world video in their first few weeks of becoming Mammoth. It’s too early to start repeating content (at least in my opinion).

I feel like Molly got too big for her britches, so to speak. She saw the success she had with AE and thought that it would be almost foolproof to branch out on her “own”. Now they’re floundering to come up with unique and interesting content. Even the most obsessive fan can’t be swindled forever.

The only unique and interesting things at this point would be to visit the international parks. Somehow I doubt we'll see that though.
Well, either that, or it'll be them living large going there on the stan money.

Another exciting video this weekend, 50 minutes eating and repeating facts in the most boring IP land Disneyland's created.
Yay....
They're way ahead of the pack for Most Disappointing Vloggers this year.

Park basics, the one thing that sets her channel above the other channels and yet she's failed to put out anything regarding the change to Disney+ made within the past couple of weeks.
It may not be deserving of an entire video, but a short would suffice.

well, to be fair, she did post on Insta that she was doing a new video detailing the change to Genie+. She included a bunch of story entries about what to expect.

So she hasn't put it out yet, that's what I thought, and we're back at the whole problem of informational distribution, like not enough icing for a cake, it's sparse and spread out all over numerous platforms. When this happens the cake looks like tit and no one counts on it tasting good.
M/A/M, you'd better pick ONE spot to disseminate the important info (hint: not Instagram, not discord, not twitch).

If it warrants a short video, they're not gonna do it. They love their long videos too much.
And for the love of God, get your own Twitch account! It can't be that hard to set up. Setting everything else up except Twitch when it's supposed to be important to your brand is like a Kyle Pallo type move.

Because they pay for an editor and clearly not enough as takes 2/3 weeks to get the video out.
Pointless for date based events like food and wine and so on
