Miss Wallace posted:It's the three movies, the only English release of the show. ("Movies" meaning "two-part episodes") Phelan and I reviewed the other two as well. The second review is on Patreon, the third is the next to be put together. They just call the other episodes Thunder in Paradise 2 and 3, but it's really obvious they're just episodes of a TV show. Was it as obvious as say the Master Ninja movies, or Riding with Death?

Pretty much. The second "movie" involves prophetic dreams and the prince of Fakeistan.

Huh, so I didn't imagine Hulk Hogan's magic scifi boat, that's one thing I can cross of my future counselling list. Also movie nights is really starting to grow on me and for that matter so is Baywatching both are becoming my favourite shows.

http://channelawesome.com/nostalgia-critic-daredevil/ Man I know Daredevil is a lovely movie (though the DC is better), but man I hate the nitpicks he does for it. Also what's his problem with childhood bullies who are assholes all the time? And he doesn't some to understand Greek names and thinks they are just bullshit thrown together.

achillesforever6 posted:Also what's his problem with childhood bullies who are assholes all the time? Speaking only for ME, it's because they're generic and done to death. They're not interesting characters to watch, they're just grating because you know the writer couldn't think of anything more interesting to use as an antagonist that you know the main character will one day grant their "comeuppance" in some kind of cool and "awe inspiring" way. You now, an  plot.Yea, child bullies are amazingly psychotic and awful, but I've also rarely seen a childhood bully in media that felt like someone I'd ever encountered growing up either.

I can't get over the idea of some kid having the nickname "Flash" in the 21st century unless he's a sex offender. Ideas about what makes someone popular or an outcast have really changed since the 60s.

I'm seeing more people coming around to Movie Nights lately and it's encouraging.  Hopefully that means I'm getting better. Sad to hear about Jake leaving Brad's site. He's a good guy, so hopefully everything's alright.

I never understood why people feel the need to play coy when someone leaves, it always ends up coming out anyway and usually draws more attention to the reason than just saying it in the first place would.

His humor can be a bit dry or fall flat at times. I know that he's a bit older than most critics so it could stem from that and basically making 'dad jokes' sometimes.

Since Phelous appears to be a goon favorite, us there a particular episode or series of his that stand out? I found him to be insufferable in the past, but as such a consistent goon darling there must be something worth a second look and it's entirely possible I just saw his worst.

The thing about Phelous is his videos are very self-referential. You'll miss a few jokes if you haven't been watching from the beginning. Some of my favorites of his are any of his animated movie reviews, like both Beauty and the Beasts http://blip.tv/phelous/beauty-and-the-beast-part-1-6976645 http://blip.tv/phelous/beauty-and-the-beast-golden-part-1-7016715 Lion and the King http://blip.tv/phelous/lion-and-the-king-part-1-7001231 Aladdin and the Adventure of All Time http://blip.tv/phelous/aladdin-and-the-adventure-of-all-time-6646347 Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde http://blip.tv/phelous/dr-jekyll-and-mr-hyde-6611996 There's also a review of the baffling Time Machine that I Found at a Yard Sale http://blip.tv/phelous/the-time-machine-i-found-at-a-yard-sale-part-1-6696699 Amityville 4 has some of my favorite jokes of his http://blip.tv/phelous/amityville-4-the-lamp-escapes-6130640 Psycho Santa is one of my personal favorites http://blip.tv/phelous/psycho-santa-6702266

lornekates posted:And in the "knows his poo poo" category, there's the reviews of the Resident Evil movies: http://phelous.com/tag/resident-evil For further "Knows his poo poo" I suggest trying the reviews of Jason Goes to Hell and Halloween 6. Halloween 6 especially is a really good overview of the film, its two cuts, and the various stupidity in them. I also like his review of Silent Hill Revelation, but it's very much from the perspective of a fan of the games, and if you get sick of "The games were better because" easily then skip it. My favorites for the fun and humor are Incubus, Feardotcom, Stay Alive, and Cry Wolf.

WickedHate posted:Do people not like Halloween 6? It was always my favorite. Better then everything that followed, surely. Halloween 6 is, by almost any measure, a terrible movie, but I too cop to enjoying it. Partially for Paul Rudd sleepwalking through the film, partially for the lush autumnal cinematography. What gives the Halloween franchise a leg up over the other ones in the Big Three is that they were always able to evoke a feeling of the place (fall, the Midwest)* extremely well, which I find to be a huge boost in horror films.** * I realize that most/all of these films were shot in California. ** This is excluding the Rob Zombie remakes (as I haven't watched them) and Halloween: Resurrection (which was pure poo poo front to back).

Only complaint is that you two didn't say "Brother!" enough. Thanks! Phelan definitely was big into wrestling back in the day, but not me. I fully admit most of my wrestling knowledge comes from the OSW Podcast, which is hilarious. I love learning about wrestling history and story lines, but the actual wrestling not so much. Also throw in my vote for the Amityville 4: The Lamp Escapes review, it's one of my favorites of Phelan's. I also love his Croc series reviews.

If you wanna learn more about wrestling History, pick up "The Death of WCW" by Bryan Alvarez and RD Reynolds. You will learn how not to run a wrestling company and how big of an rear end in a top hat Hulk Hogan was.

A short video on "Croyd" by Ian Wallace, a forgotten sci-fi yarn about a half-god time travelling space James Bond who's mind gets put into a woman's body in the middle of fighting space hippies. It's not nearly as fun as it sounds.
