LINEAL 3 INAUGURAL POST!
🕑 Added 2024-08-30 22:58:11 +0000 UTCWell here we are: Lineal 3 is finally, properly underway. Were picking up exactly where we left off, with Cro Cop launching Knees at Fujitas head as if its continued existence was an affront to him. Iit's like I never left!
I've gotten about 10 minutes of material written, and 6 or so minutes of accompanying footage. I know I said I was going to try and wrap this up as a trilogy, but ehhh.. yeah. I don't see that happening. In this video alone I have to try and cover Cro cop > Noguiera > Fedor > Werdum, and theres still a fucking half dozen or so more champs after that, so I kinda feel like this ones going into a quadrilogy. But hopefully not a shit quadrilogy like the Alien quadrilogy. I mean 1 and 2 are bangers, 3 is okay if you watch the directors cut, but four?! Jesus. Awful. Just awful. So anyways this will DEFINITELY be better than the Alien movies or something. Guaranteed. Probably! Not much else to say on it yet, it's still quite early days, but I wanted to let you all know shit is happening!
In other news, I've also been thinking a lot about the book idea i mentioned earlier in the week. Im kinda going back and forward on ideas, I've had 3 ideas:
1. A book chronicling the wildest moments in MMA history (with B&W illustrations)
2. A full history of PRIDE, essentially NEVER DIE but turned into a book. also illustrated, B&W
3. A coffee table book/art book of the lives of legendary PRIDE fighters, fully illustrated, full colour
Obviously the coffee table book is the most expensive idea, as it would be a load of full colour artwork, and that's both expensive to print and to hire artists to illustrate. But i think its a cool idea and its definitely something id buy, but the actual process of designing the book is daunting as shit as I am not a designer and its weird and scary trying to figure out all this shit. But it's definitely an idea ill be working on in the background for the foreseeable, he said before immediately jettisoning the idea into the sun never to be mentioned again.
Also, the Patreon post is a bit early this week as I'm -theoretically- going on holiday tomorrow. I say theoretically, as the Portugese Airports are going on strike in ummm... 9 minutes from now, for 2 days, so there's a better than average chance my flight is cancelled/heavily delayed. Cool.
Catch you next week! Thank you again for your support everyone. Lineal 3 will be a long one in the making, and I hope it's worth it. I'll catch you all next weekend! Take care and just bleed

With a bit of luck dude 😆 hah I think no matter what idea I go with I’ll eventually wind up doing one or both pride ideas!!
Michael Crites
I really love all 3 ideas, but c’mon man, Pride, it’s got to be Pride (either Pride book idea). Every time Pride gets mentioned in any of your videos I light up. I literally cheered in the last lineal video when you started talking Pride. Enjoy the vacation!!! Hopefully the next one will be to America

The Anderson Silva and BJ Penn videos are nice

I’d 100 percent buy the coffee table book, I don’t reed gud
CultureMind
definitely like first book idea best. No reason to retread your video work. Pride video perfect as is. But totally sit down and read through your kind of humor a take on 100 weirdest moments in mma history. Don't even need illustrations honestly

Too far , enjoy the good weather and good food !!

I'd chip in for a kickstarter or something for the coffee table book and buy one.
Napoleon

Sebastian Scholey
Coffee tale book sounds cool AF. I would buy one.
Radu Pislaru

Cause they’re mostly garbage lol. You can still find them in the channel playlists if you really feel like it
Napoleon
Yeah that’s a good idea, I was kinda thinking the same!

Have a great holiday, man. Well earned! In terms of the book - all three ideas are soubd. 1 and 2 I think are slightly stronger. I mentioned how much I loved your Pride doc last week. I think, because I only got into MMA in the last couple of years (I know, I know... Fuckin' tourist), there's just something about Pride - moreso even than early UFC - where, even with the shenanigans and fight fixing, it's like a mythical age of gods and monsters. Something magic and glorious which you just can't see ever existing in the same way again. Option 1 you'd have to leave open for a pitential second volume - in spite of the ongoing sanitisation of the sport. But it would still be awesome. A full history of Pride you know you could wrap up and manage in it's entirety. Making pacing and what to include easier.

Pride history book would be cool asf , there isn’t soo much material available on pride

Maybe start with the history of Pride, get some experience and connections and then get to the art of professional fisting collectors edition book afterwards? Have a good, relaxing vacation!
Insane Ape
Yo napoleon whyd you unlist your older yt videos? Quality takes time and you are making sure the lineage videos aren’t like aliens 4. Looking forward to the next however many lineage videos there are!

I’m balls deep in the LITRPG community online and it’s pretty niche. A lot of them publish direct to Amazon books before they get big enough to get hard copies of their books published. Several of them are active in the facebook group and help each other out navigating all that. You might be able to reach out to some of them for advice or whatever
