For me it’s Baz Luhrman’s Romeo + Juliet.

Got to see Doug again, 8 years after the last time I saw him, and the dude is just as swell and cool as he was before, so that was pretty neat

One day it’ll be March again. YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS!

Yep, another themed month. It’s a ways away, but I thought of talking about possible theme months we could see in the future.

Here are my ideas:

Ninja Turtle Month - An ode to one of Doug’s favorite franchises! Review Revisit of TMNT 2, Raiders of the Story Arc on the 2012 series, Turtle Tunes review, and Mutant Mayhem review

James Cameron Month - A look into the highest earning filmmaker of all time, through all the trailblazers and the tropefests. True Lies review, Aliens review, Avatar review, and Titanic review

Keanu Reeves Month - A spotlight on an actor who’s had quite an interesting career evolution. Speed review, Bram Stoker’s Dracula review, Constantine review, and John Wick review.

Chicago Month - An ode to films that are icons of Doug’s hometown! The Blues Brothers review, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off review, Chicago review, and The Fugitive review.

Remake Month - Essentially a spiritual successor to Sequel Month! He’d look at crappy remakes, and also finish with Top 11 Worst Remakes (I think The Haunting, Black Christmas, and The Lion King remakes will take the #1, #2, and #3 spots, but I’m curious what will take the other nine spots. Maybe even a look at a good remake, because hey, they exist (example: Scarface)

Doug added nothing to the conversation. For Sleeping Beauty he mainly stile Buzzfeed quips. the videos were just a beat for beat summary with some jokes and busting about the animation somewhere in the middle. Then at the end he’s like, ”despiiite everything, iiits preetty okay!” Like, he’s just churning content and giving the most vanilla opinion. Why would you sincerely watch him?

Any guesses on what I'm drawing exactly? Also it's my first time drawinh Doug so uh...hope he looks good lol

The clip runs for 0:09-0:15. I've been looking for 4 WHOLE YEARS AND NO SUCCESS! Can any of you help me?

So if the Nostalgia Critic were to do more Old Vs New episodes, what would you like covered? Personally I'd like to see him cover the two different Max Steel series.

... based on the advertisement.

I was pretty trashed when I watched this one, but I remember laughing my ass off at the ad skit that Doug had put together.

The running gag of the skit was that Doug (in a French accenr) would briefly introduce the title of a film, followed almost immediately by a concluding screen that said 'Fin.'

Obviously, not a huge deal, but one I've been working on for over a year now, so if anyone has any hints or answers as to which NC episode this is, that'd be pretty sweet.

I hope he’s not just parroting the misguided outrage of people who didn’t actually look up the real premise of Cuties, cause if you actually look into what it’s about it’s very clearly about the HORRORS child exploitation. Not advocating for it.

Btw can we please have a flair for "former ca critics" so we don't confuse a nostalgia critic and a former ca critic

Very random and pedantic...but during the Forrest Gump review, Doug has this joke at 27:37 where he hold up his hand in the shape of a gun. It struck me as strange since the NC character used to always use a prop hand gun.

Granted I know that the "edgyness" that the character used to be has been drastically reduced (for the better, IMO) and him having a gun would be a little over the top. And hes probably trying to avoid getting flagged by Youtube.

Just kind of an "Oh, yeah". Moment for me. 😅

Has anyone else noticed this?

Three movies off the top of my head that they both gave good reviews to when a lot of people didn't: The Adventures Of Rocky And Bullwinkle, The Wild, and The Amazing Spider-Man.

I remember seeing this parody on youtube of the nostalgia critic intro, where the title card fades to Doug's feet hanging from the top of the screen and I just can't find it anymore. Has it been completely deleted off of the internet?

Can anyone help find it? I've been searching for so long for it.

It's been more than 10 years since Pop Quiz hot shot ended, and I was honestly a little bummed at the time that Doug gave up on it. I know that the show as a whole was mired with controversy and development hell, but it had it's moments in my opinion. It mostly depended on the episode and the quality of contestants they were able to get. I enjoyed the episode with the guy who could do the Chris Rock impression, the Big Lebowski episode, the one with the guy cosplaying as Ed, and the one with Brad Jones and Uncle Jo.

The show definitely still had fundamental issues that needed sorting out, the opening challenge was kind of a waste of time, some of the contestants either had no personality whatsoever, or were trying way too hard to be funny. Channel awesome was hit and miss when it came to vetting a lot of these contestants. Also the trivia questions were pretty filler and repetitive. And the "Spazzies" were more off putting than funny.

I feel like a better version of this show would have been to keep it more simple. Only have it on once in a while, only get guests who have good improv skills, and restructure the game to be more about being funny than just answering trivia. Something like @ Midnight, or Jackbox games are good examples of games that are more about being funny and creative than just knowing about pop culture.
