This is what happens when online reviewing is dominated in the early years with the Nostalgia Critic style of reviewing. People now think nitpicking minor things counts as serious film critiques.
I'm afraid I'm finally being 'that's the joke'-d, but I'm pretty sure nobody involved with Cinema Sins thinks of what they do as serious film critique; it's supposed to be a comedy series, right?

EDIT: To be completely honest, though, for a long time I thought Something Awful's own movie review column that used to run was /also/ supposed to be a joke about self-improtant critics and didn't realize how deadly serious the crew that wrote them were being.

Cinema Sins, like Dave Chappelle, should have listened to idiots misunderstanding their humor and immediately fled to the depths of Canada with its notably spotty internet access and stopped trying to entertain anyone for fear that someone, somewhere might get the wrong idea about the perceived quality of Captain America: Civil War.

Alternatively, I suppose, they could hire the same kind of nitpicking weirdo that they are parodying to make sure that the last names of charaters in movies are sufficiently uncommon to make a proper half second joke about in their videos.
