I didn't see a thread about him that wasn't old or even an official disscusion, so I made this thread.
For those who are unaware of him, Nostalgia Critic is a character played by reviewer Doug Walker who reviews bad (and some good) nostalgic movies and TV shows. He has tackled some of the worst movies there are such as Batman and Robin, the (poorly) animated Titanic movies, Battlefield Earth, and the horrendously awful Garbage Pail Kids. His latest review: Nostalgia Critic: Star Trek 3 - The search for Spock Full list of reviews here I'll try to update this thread every week with his latest video. -------------------- My B/S/T thread

His "reviews" are awful.

It's an opinion spoken on a message board. Just because you don't agree doesn't mean you can tell someone not to post.
I also love NC! The recent delays were driving me crazy. --------------------  |

I've seen pretty much all if not all of his reviews. Love them. Even when he's ripping into a show I happen to like (Captain N was a fun show durnit!), usually I still find it funny just because I can't deny it's true.

I prefer Brad Jones myself. Doug's alright, though frankly I think he's best when he's not 'on script'.

NC is fun, although sometimes grating.
I prefer Spoony, to be honest. |

NC can be hit and miss sometimes. don't know how a guy can get so many viruses to get delays in this day and age.
I hate 90% of the other people on that site. I like Spooney, FilmBrain (sometimes) and Vangelus but everyone else bores me to tears with their little mini stories they try to insert into a damn review. I don't want to see some god damn terrible live action fanfiction in a review. |

I enjoy a lot of people on That Guy With The Glasses. NC himself, of course, Spoony, Cinema Snob, Linkara, Film Brain...
And the anniversary films, Kickassia and Suburban Knights, are in my opinion comedy gold. -------------------- QUOTE You're far too young to be this bitter and angry at the world....  |

Nash is really underrated. He's got good charisma, a great voice (and a high quality set up) and works really well with the other reviewers. Plus he avoids the storyline pitfalls.
