Our post-Star Wars/Xmas break is over. It's time to get back to what we do best: Creating the worlds most mediocre content. Which we've now been doing for a whole year! Holy crap!
And what a year it's been! So, join us as we look back at our favourite pieces of work from the past year of Foul ENT. Happy Birthday to us!
Fuck UniLad
How could we not mention this? This is easily out most popular piece this year. The Cunt set out to expose UniLad for the utter robbing thieves that they are, whilst Mike went on the hunt for evidence of their blatant plagiarism. They both succeeded in spades. Whilst the people profiting from UniLad haven't chugged bleach yet, FoulENT got recognised by a number of sites for it's efforts against the popular Reddit content robbers. The fight continues. Who knows, maybe in 2016 we'll finally make it and have one of our videos stolen by UniLad? We can but dream.
We're giving an honourable mention to our Peer-Amid The Mis-truth article, which exposed pyramid schemes like Juice Plus, for getting some love from MumsNet. That was a bit weird.

6 Realities of Playing World of Warcraft for a Living
A shocking change of pace for us at FoulENT, Joe Turner delivered probably the most shocking and honest effort we've ever made on the site. It was a real precautionary tale, that only seems to be more relevant now we live in an age where countless people are trying to make a living from video game streaming or running YouTube gaming channels. Whilst we do sometimes produce serious articles, Joe stole a spot in our favourites with this cripplingly brutal look at not only his own past, but the past of many others across the net, with a trend that lives on even now.
An honourable mention goes to Mike's 5 Days With Tinder, for opening a window onto his love life with a funny and critical look at the popular online dating app.

5 Products Coming Soon from Apple
This article was the springboard for a bunch of stuff we did over the year, from our News Shorts, to other picture heavy articles like our recent Children's Books Photoshop gallery, to our three-way articles that dominated our 30 Days of Stuff. Once our three writers learned how to follow trends, increase their turnover times and get better at making original images, the floodgates were opened to our favourite group activity. We made decent reads with good laughs and had great fun making them.
We also have to give honourable mentions to the Sequels That No-One Didn't Ask For and 5 Celebs Who Aged Badly, for showing how we flexed our parody muscles this year.

PopScorn - Fantastic 4 Review
We produced a lot of podcasts this year. Just look at our SoundCloud page. We made 10 in December alone! Regardless, much like in 2014, our most entertaining audio outing this year was tearing down the worst movie of the year. LikeInterstellar before it, our review of Fantastic 4 was our most enjoyably scathing track of 2015. Mike and Darren were in their element with this brick by brick destruction of the 20th Century Fox train-wreck.
We also need to mention our stupidly popular UK first Big Hero 6 review and the epic battle of Fog Vs Hail from Disagreevances - Episode 4.

Star Wars Week
Star Wars Week was a mammoth task. A week long celebration of the sci-fi phenomenon with 7 full length videos, the whole project requiring to edit down a literal feature lengths worth of raw footage in total, as well as editing footage from 6 full length features into the videos themselves. That's not even counting the daily podcasts, game footage and bonus video! It was a dumb idea from day one, but Mike and Darren pulled it off, and every video and podcast found their way to YouTube and SoundCloud before the arrival of The Force Awakens. You can watch the whole shebang, over an hours worth of fanboy goodness, on the playlist above.
Honourable mention goes to our favourite episode of our video series You Never Asked, the Sex episode.
What a mental year, and it's only our first. Our Twitter page went from around 20 followers to almost 1500 and our page views went from around 20 a day to over 3000. That is completely mental for a site run by a handful of morons. Thanks to everyone who liked, shared, commented, retweeted, listened, watched, read, linked and enjoyed all the stuff we've made over the last 12 months. You lot are brilliant.
We hope you're ready for an explosive year two. Bring on 2016.
