Hello all! Your favorite admin Mike here..

Well there is going to be a little delay in the release of the new episode of the Nostalgia Critic. At best it'll be available at 1:00 AM CST; at worst it'll be up tomorrow some time. There have been some small issues that we are currently taking care of, and we do apologize for the delay.

New Feature: Blogs.
On the bright side many of you have found out about the new feature that was added to the site: Blogs. Any registered user can create a blog for all to see now. Over the next two weeks we will be monitoring the blogs, and the best writers will be offered a position on this site to become an article writer. Initially the position will not be one of the paying variety, but as we grow, so does your chance to make a little side cash for your work.

5 Second Movies will be ending at 100.
As much as we hate to do this, we believe that continuing to do 5 Second Movies will eventually cause harm to the site due to some legal reasons. So basically there will be 4 more 5 Second Movies to go before it's over. The older videos will still be on this site though.

Ask That Guy a Question.
This show is ready to start filming and we need your questions. The top 5 questions will be answered on the show. So make sure your's stands out, whether it's funny, interesting, serious, or stupid.. just make sure it's the best question. Click here to send us an email with your question. You can also click under the Site News Menu and select the Contacts area to also email us.

Premium Area Access for Donaters.
You will all get an email on Tuesday telling you where to go.

Bum Reviews.
The Bum Reviews will be here, and only here very soon. The Xomba partnership doesn't seem like it's going to work. We thought that by have our content on their main page (they wanted exclusivity for a few days) that we would receive a huge influx on new users.. Sadly this didn't seem to be true. We do apologize for the hassle that we caused all of you over this trial, but after listening to your complaints about Xomba, we decided to pull the plug.

The Last Angry Geek.
He will be a new weekly article contributor to this site. We hope you all are enjoying his great comic book reviews! His newest one: Spiderman: One More Day can be viewed Here

About the NC, I can't say I can bust your balls. After all, even though I don't do movies, seeing all the projects you do as well as seeing how much work goes into editing, I can't fault ThatGuy.

Instead I fault the admin. Goddamn admins, always abusing their powers. smilies/smiley.gif

is what nostalgia critic do illegal? just curious I love the vids but if you are saying 5 second movies are in trouble for legal reasons I hope nostalgia critic isn't. I know that it is criticism but it does kind of ruin the whole movie because it goes through every part.

We're just going to try and avoid any potential problems that can hinder us down the line, by stopping new 5 Second Movies. NC will be fine.

New 5 Second Movie should be up late tomorrow too.

So, is there any chance of doing maybe a new 5 second movie every once in a blue moon? Just as a ThatGuy treat or surprise? Or is it a kind of...eternity thing? Because tell him to do Indy and the Last Crusade in that case. It doesn't make sense how it's totally illegal. I mean, YouTube never shuts down the people who make fan trailers, so isn't this pretty much the same thing?

He has had numerous videos pulled on his youtube account back in the day due to copy infringement. It's not that it is illegal, but the fact that it could eventually turn into an issue. There is going to be plenty of other content being added to the site, and eventually there will be a new video every day; were just not at that point yet.
The Last Crusade is going to one of the last smilies/smiley.gif. Also, a new one may pop up once in a while, it just depends if he gets inspired enough to do one or two again after he has stopped.

I thought you went to a website to avoid the suspension of accounts due to escaping the legal reasons of youtube? Your 5 second movies made you very popular.

Yes, that was one of the reasons we created a website for Doug, but just because were not on YouTube, doesn't mean we still can't have a legal issue fall on us.

With all the new features and shows that are being introduced, I knew something had to give. If losing the 5-second movies means more time for ThatGuy to write, shoot and edit NC and Bum Reviews, that's fine by me.

I think the Xomba partnership was a good idea. The simple truth is that if ThatGuy had his own website from the outset without posting on YouTube, the site probably would have faded out rather quickly. We need to bring in new viewers somehow.

Keep up the good work, admin.

Do you what I just realised?!? He hasn't done E.T. in 5 seconds yet. It's one of my favourite films, but there are so many possibilities for hilarious ideas.
