The review will come out tomorrow 5pm CST.

Clearly he seems to like it.

Can't wait to see him rip into it although sure would be funnier review if he did it few years ago when he was better.

I wish he would do TNM (for how bad it was) and 2012 (for how great it was at times)

Do we really need to give media review whores their own threads? Especially if it's just gonna be negative.

I have a strong feeling he is gonna really like the show and even rebut alot of the criticism that it gets from a lot of casuals.

Anyways, We'll see tomorrow.

Who cares about the Nostalgia Critic Anyway comes off as a huge uncaring prick from the whole #changethechannel movement.

The rape cover-up?

more so the myriad of people who left the site and he never offered an apology too but still covered for that Mike Michaud fellow that people didn't like. Id add that too.

I still have a lot of respect for Walker as well as James Rolf. They're more entertaining than BNC and still deliver good content (at least whenever the latter releases a review).

literally who

Luckily James has never really had any drama as major as that. He's mostly a one-man show anyways, so there's nothing in terms of him treating co-workers badly. And unlike Doug, he was smart enough to have never sold off his AVGN IP to anyone else. He still owns The Nerd, unlike Doug who doesn't own The Critic anymore.

I had no idea there was any issues going on with him. How did all this pass me by? Anyway I briefed myself on it but don’t wanna get into that.

I like his reviews. I think he’s honest in his reviews. He’s pretty bluntly ripped into stuff he didn’t like. Especially in those real thoughts videos with Rob.

Until he craps on the movies that you love. I don't really care for his reviews. He pretty much craps on anything that's popular.

Here's his review.

No he’s criticized some my favorite stuff but that’s ok. I don’t agree with all of his points but I can usually understand his side.

Like what?

His reviews are satirical, you're not supposed to take them seriously.

So what if it's negative... If someone knows he probably won't share their view on it, then don't watch? (And it's hardly just "casuals" that offer up criticism.)

I don't really care if he loves this series so far or hates it as it has zero bearing on how I feel about it, nor do I see people like him (or most people for that matter) as any kind of "authority" on the matter.


Now... setting some big "reveal" date and time is the part that annoys me, since people getting a bit self important for becoming a so-called "star" on Youtube is to me kinda... :trolleye:

That's Doug Walker for you. Dude has mad respect from me for being one of the first big internet critics, but he paints himself as a bit obnoxious, especially the past few years.

Here's his review of Rise of the TMNT

What's that Claw, his review is live? Got a link? :roll:

Well, he was fair. I don't agree that all the characters have the same personality, they're very clearly different, they just spread the jokes evenly. But anyway if his open mindedness & appreciation of the designs & animation help to persuade his audience of angry manchildren, that's great.

The irony of calling critics "angry manchildren" while watching a show full of manbaby humor doesn't elude you I hope

Considering that he's lied about parts of movies and showed complete ignorance as a reviewer (such as conveniently leaving out that Deadpool attempted a murder-suicide, or not realizing that the reason why the Dinosaur in Jurassic World being revealed to be part raptor was a big deal due to the fact that it DID NOT LOOK OR ACT LIKE ONE UP TO THAT POINT!).

Come on, man. You know there's a difference between critics and the people he was speaking about it.

Is anyone going to discuss his review or just him lol

I thought it was fair tbh, I feel that the new turtles personalities are mixed up but the action scenes are awesome

The humour isn't bad either, i'm still not won over by it yet
