Holy poo poo, they watch one of the most awkward, uncomfortable videos yet. They really tear into them good. Last Best of the Worst had movies that were entertaining shlock. This one is the complete and utter opposite. A great episode nonetheless.
Holy poo poo how can I remember that Fire Safety Rap stuff from the 90s? I now remember that loving commercial with the rap played all the goddamn time on Nickelodeon

While not necessarily new, I just recently watched Retsupurae's commentary on Nostalgia Critic's Bart's Nightmare LP, and holy poo poo. For anyone who's not a fan of NC like me, this video sums up everything thats terrible about his schtick.
I'm glad that Doug didn't get pissed and attack them with that stupid strawman he had. I'm just glad NC is much better now than it was then. Though that South Park episode still had the bitching about the fans/trolls.

Retsupurae's video is actually kind of poetic I feel.
Their video was poorly researched, kind of phoned in, and they didn't feel it was very good but uploaded it anyway. (All this is by their own admission.)
Doug's let's play was poorly researched, kind of phoned in, and he didn't feel it was very good but uploaded it anyway. (All this by his own admission.)
The only difference is that Retsupurae's video was thankfully not indicative of the quality of their future content, while Doug's video... well... was.
Until the Nostalgia Critic reboot at least. His quality has finally gone back up again. He's not... great, but he's better.

Wow, that is a real improvement in quality from the last Nostalgia Critic I saw.
It really helps that these editorials are short and usually given analysis, while his main reviews have the benefit of two weeks to edit and think up better jokes/script.

I think you misheard. He said Jeff Goldblum wasn't unknown, but Jurassic Park pushed him into huge popularity. Which is totally accurate.

I liked that. He should do that more often, pick apart movies he clearly adores.
I think The Fly made him pretty popular, maybe not as much as Jurassic Park of course. I don't understand the whole Spielberg Spotlight fetish joke, I think a lot of directors in the history of film have used spotlights for that effect.

Also he dissed Jeff Goldblum who is a national treasure and while of course getting typecasted is still a pretty good actor. I found this scene from a movie called Mr.Frost and man Goldblum owns in it.

Sam Neil is also a really good actor who never really got into a big hit after Jurassic Park, he was awesome as Merlin though.

He did a really great job in the Simpsons because it's not "Hey it's Sam Neil".

He's also done a tonne of Horror films that I now want to watch, more than just Event Horizon.
In the Mouth of Madness, Omen III, and Daybreakers are all I can think of off the top of my head; he was also in Red October. Funny thing is Sam Neil is a huge fan of The Simpsons and apparently can recite entire episodes so he must have been in heaven. Also he has a winery which I have on my bucket list to visit and apparently really is Merlin because he hasn't aged too badly.

Admittedly, a lot of the points in that recent editorial were stuff you could probably pick up browsing the Loki tag on tumblr from fanfiction.net. Given the reputations of those places, asking his fans was probably the best idea. I got a grin out of the TvTropes bit.

I know not many people here are keen on "reviewer reviewers", but Asalieri2's video about the Nostalgia Critic and why he doesn't like it anymore was surprisingly restrained compared to some of his earlier reviewers. I think I prefer it when people can talk calmly about something. Though my minor nitpick comes with his point about an "hour long" NC video, which is the Animaniacs retrospective he did. While the point about his videos getting padded still stands, that video was a different beast than the regular NC episodes.

Finally: Nash released a video talking about the fantasy film Krull. Seems like an interesting film for all its faults. The cold opening may not make complete sense if you don't follow Radio Dead Air; suffice it to say not so good things happened.
Speaking of Asalieri he did a video on Linkara's video on ad blockers

Same reason they censor nudity I think. Blip has an intern rating system and more 'family friendly' videos get better advertisement deals.

I do find it pretty obnoxious that they try to explain it with 'it funniest that way', because it really isn't. The only way censored swearing is funny is when you bleep out an entire sentence.
That or instead of bleeps some other sound. That or the show that is bleeping Arthur. Then again I never had problems with bleeping :shobon:
