Doug has this problem where he hates when concepts are spoon fed to him, but also critiques movies when they donât explain things explicitly. I noticed it after a while, after watching the movies he reviewed. He hates being treated like a child, but he refuses to think any deeper about what he consumes.

I recall hearing that the Tom Hardy fangirls where a weird passive aggressive jab at his former colleague Lindsay Ellis. Apparently Doug frequently made fun of the fact that she's into Hardy on their personal Facebooks back when they still worked together - so this seems to be an evolution of that weird grudge Doug had

Roger Ebert (whom, ironically, Doug Walker idolizes) once said âOne rule of comedy is that itâs hard to be funny when itâs obvious youâre trying to be funny. Great comedies take their premises seriously and the laughs flow naturally.â And that right there is one of the problems with Doug. He favors cheap humor over actual, valid criticism.

it's really wild to me that doug claims to be a feminist but he consistently can only depict women enjoying films as "fangirls" and routinely only seems to understand women as having some weird sexual interest in the actors instead of just. enjoying the film for being good. he basically made this fangirl character to constantly mock women for enjoying things

So what's really funny to me while watching this is your reaction to all the characters. I used to watch his videos religiously, and the character that aren't direct characters from the mad max movie are all reoccurring characters in the nostalgia critic universe. I don't think I realized how much he relied on people knowing all his characters until now. Of course you don't know who they are, literally all of them were characters from other reviews that evolved into they're own thing, and he just expects you to know that and explains nothing. This is very fascinating to me.
Since I stopped watching his work, and realized how awful he and his work actually is, I've been very cathartic and fascinating to watch other people talk about him, esp people who haven't watched most of his work.

It's weird how NC assumes this is just a guy's movie or something with jokes like "You Sure You Have A penis?" And that girls only watched for Tom Hardy is just such a dated take either way. But the movie has A lot of feminist takes.
There is also a lot of story just in what people are doing and what they want. The villain and his "children", water, and much more.

Pinely from the future here, this is probably one of my least favourite videos I've made! It was my first facecam vid so obviously it took me a bit to get into it, but I also think my critiques are not on the level I'd like them to be. I'd delete the video but I can't because it's sponsored, but I guess this is at the very least a look into the start of me getting used to this format. Enjoy?
