Nostalgia Critic - The Lost World: Jurassic Park
 
I thought you guys might enjoy this. The popular internet critic and comedian The Nostalgia Critic reviews The Lost World: Jurassic Park, and tells us all why this is the biggest pile of shit he's ever seen.

Enjoy.

I've seen several of his videos. He's funny but I don't always agree with him. Although, there's always the chance that he actually likes those movies and he's just making fun of them for laughs. I liked his video for Godzilla 1998. That was a good one.

Meanwhile, the guy's favorite movie is probably "Jackass 3". :cool:

Thanks so much for sharing.

Nah, it's Terry Gilliam's Brasil, which is quite the excellent movie.

Just tried to watch the video, couldn't get 20 seconds in. Of course, I'm a Woody Allen/Monty Python/Lewis Black/Bill Maher junkie, so I'm used to something with, ya know...actual wit.

God, was that awful...:(

You sir have no sense of humour.

I mean, you cannot avoid the fact that The Lost World is just so many leagues worse then the first film.

Not really, but it's true I cannot avoid the fact that the Nostalgia Critic is many leagues worse than The Lost World AND the original film!! He's more on-par with JP3, actually... :cool:

A would-be hipster doofus on the internet with no coherent points whatsoever does not = comedy.

Falanca 02/16/2011 12:30 pm

Ooof, AGAIN I'm seeing this conversation?

I'm okay with his reviews. He makes decent points, but sometimes it's true that when he tries to make things entertaining, he sometimes resorts to old jokes. He can be pretty funny time to time though. I think his reviewing covers it up. As for his projects that have NO reviews in it, like Kickassia... It's just a pile of crap.

I see that hating on NC is a cool thing to do on Encyclopedia Dramatica and /b/, but I have yet to see a good explanation behind such a hatred. He's okay, what he does is okay, and hell he's one of the GOOD reviewers on his page. If he bores you (in 20 seconds, and you think he's not funny and he's witless although obviously you did not show him enough time to actually present you SOMETHING), try to watch Linkara. Oh my god so pointless...

And what was the thing about "no women would raise her hands over her head"? What...?

Name a situation inwhich someone is screaming in shock and raises her hands over her head.

waroftheworlds01 02/16/2011 08:27 pm

Well.... I though it was funny. And this is coming from someone who has enjoyed all the films.

No one cares what an extra is doing with her arms...

Rifftrax's take on the original JP is hilarious. This guy makes me wish the government would just deny the internet to certain people like happened on a national level in Egypt. :cool:

I would have found it funny had the guy not had the wit of Carrot Top and the voice of Gilbert Godfried.

Well, Rifftrax specifically gave the Nostalgia Critic his own Rifftrax Presents to be featured on the site and find him rather funny.

You make no sense with your logic. First, she's not an extra, and second, IF THE MOVIE DOES SOMETHING WRONG YOU POINT IT OUT IN A REVIEW

No, if a film has problems with its story, characters, dialogue, thematic material, editing, directorial vision or aesthetic or narrative or whatever, you should point it out...which TLW does have a couple, so if the putz had come up with an actual point, I'd listen to his crappy internet thing...

Then there's clueless nitpicking and hysterical screeching, which is what the guy in question seems to be good at. :cool:

Then you'd love the Room due to it's complex plot and ingenious theme.

If you really only got twenty seconds in, you missed his coherent points about "Why are there so many continuity errors with the first film?" "Why do the T-Rexes return?" and so on.

But keep in mind, Doug is a comedian first and foremost. The Nostalgia Critic is a fictional character. It's okay if you don't find his jokes funny, but it seems a bit odd to criticize a comedian for nitpicking instead of making a legitimate review.

I am rubber and you are glue. Poopie head, poopie head, that's how I argue.

Yeah that didn't really rhyme.

Well, if he goes into the actual PLOT, then I'll give another shot. He still sounds like Gilbert Godfried, however. :eek:

He does go into the actual plot quite a bit, and he makes good points quite often in his reviews. Although, I'll admit his earlier reviews did this a lot less and went for comedy a lot more. You kind of have to cut him some slack though, because he gets skewered by his own fanbase sometimes if he doesn't meet their expectations of how much comedy should be in each review or whatever. The man will stick by his guns, though. If he doesn't think a joke is funny, he won't do it.

The Plot... dude, he covers the whole freaking movie. lol

RexMaster 02/21/2011 10:02 pm

This dude is a douche who made this video for laughs but no real truth about the movie, he doesn't explore any of the good parts, but only the parts that he thinks are bad because he is a crappy movie critic... I LOVE U JURASSIC PARK!!!!! :o
