# **Basic Information**

**My Retrospect: My Book Review From Mid-2012** is the eleventh (11th) video on the Master Raney channel on YouTube. This video is Master Raney diving into retrospect about his book review of two Diary of a Wimpy Kid books he videoed in 2012.

# **Plot**

Master Raney announces to the audience that this video is the second retrospect on the Master Raney channel and takes back to 2012. He shows a scene of a Facebook video that he's doing a retrospect on. Master Raney recalls having fun voicing a handheld object with a face, talking in English and Spanish, and then he points out that Rodrick was bullying Greg in both the book and the movie, Rodrick Rules, Greg calling Rodrick names, Rodrick pushing Greg, and these two getting along in both the book and the movie, then states in his opinion that unhappy endings are hilarious. Master Raney states he takes back the sympathy he had for Greg Heffley back in 2012 due to the fact that Greg Heffley was just a fictional character, then states that feeling bad for a victim character wouldn't be entertainment and that he likes reading about bad things, even during the rising action of the plot. When 2012 Raney tells from the book that Greg Heffley's teacher was putting Greg in the front of the classroom because of his brother, Rodrick, from a few years back in the book, Master Raney "reminds" 2012 Raney that he's reading about fiction. Master Raney then says that fictional characters fighting is meant for entertainment. When 2012 Raney sees a picture of Manny's drawing and talks about it, Master Raney states that in Rodrick Rules, Manny was revealed to be three years old. When 2012 Raney shows the picture close to the camera, which was hard to see, Master Raney says he couldn't see it. 2012 Raney talks about the picture Greg drew of himself calling a baby Rodrick a bunny rabbit, then Master Raney tells that "bunny rabbit" is too miniscule to be an insult and that it would be hilarious if a fictional character cries over a small insult, then 2012 Raney shows the picture in front of the camera, then Master Raney says he can't even see the image. 2012 Raney moves onto Rodrick's drawing in the book promising not to push Greg, then Master Raney states that it's hilarious when fictional characters go through violence as well as bullying and being offended by little things, all because it's fiction. 2012 Raney shows the picture on camera, which wasn't easy to see, then Master Raney angrily tells 2012 Raney that it's the third time he has to tell him that the quality is too poor for the audience to see what he's showing on camera. 2012 Raney moves onto The Ugly Truth, then Master Raney says to hope to hear more, then 2012 Raney talks about Greg Heffley hearing his alarm clock in his dreams, and then Master Raney says that whatever sounds around you in real life will get into your dreams and will wake you up. Master Raney states that reading about nightmares are entertaining as long as it's all fiction. When 2012 Raney mentions Greg Heffley, stuck in his dreams, changing his alarm clock's sound from beeping to music, Master Raney briefly wonders how it's possible and then instantly realizes that it's because of fiction. 2012 Raney mentions Greg Heffley waking up during his school's seventh period class, extremely late for school, leading to Master Raney to also say that a fictional character being late for school is hilarious. 2012 Raney says Greg couldn't wake up, then Master Raney says that in fiction, oversleeping is hilarious and that fictional characters probably won't catch the symptoms he mentioned on the fourth video on the Master Raney channel. When 2012 Raney sees a picture in the book of Susan hugging Aunt Dorothy so hard that she made her fart, Master Raney states that a scene like that in a fictional plot would make him laugh as loud as 10,000 decibels. 2012 Raney shows that picture on camera, then Master Raney says that he ***barely*** saw it. When the video ends from 2012, Master Raney regrets going like yada-yada and wishes to have studied up the entire plot all the way from exposition to denouement without looking back at the book and to have filmed the entire book report. Master Raney says that 2012 Raney was slacking from doing a proper book report and taking certain parts of the plot too seriously. Prior to the conclusion, Master Raney reads the description of the Facebook video on the Facebook interface, pronouncing the abbreviation of Diary of a Wimpy Kid as an acronym, then gives the description a 10 out of 10, then sees the comment he wrote in 2012 (which was six years prior to the upload of the YouTube video on the Master Raney channel), asking if it was really necessary. Master Raney likes the comment, then unlikes it.
