    Omigod, I remember pagemaster XD I'm ashamed to admit I actually /liked/ that.... oh, youth, how ye blinde me to stupidity... |D Ah well.

    I liked Full House, too... not as much as pagemaster though X3

    Hee, I was totally wondering if you were gonna take on "The Pagemaster". That one, along with "Full House" and "North" should be fun...well, as much fun as you can put that word in the same sentence with "Full House" and "North" (what a dumb name for a kid).

    Not quite sure I'm feeling the choice behind "TMNT" but I'm still curious to see what you'll do with it.
  • Lee is Still Gaming  - Moonwalker
    For a second there I thought the Angry Video Game Critic would be making a second appearance to review Moonwalker for the Sega Genesis, but I forgot that it was also a movie.

    Looking forward to all of these! I bet the stupid Atari sound effects make it into the Superman moments video.

    Hoo boy, not sure how to feel about Short Circuit. I love those movies and it's going to be weird to see the Nostalgia Critic tearing into them.

    Old Batman vs. New Batman should be a hoot, though. ^_^
  • ChaosD1

    I love Short Circuit 2, as well. What other movie could deliver such classic lines as:

    "Los Locos kick your ass!
    Los Locos kick your face!
    Los Locos kick your balls into outer space!"
  • Blackbird
    You and me both man. I'm excited but a bit weary cause they're such classics. Guess we'll have to see.

    For a second I thought the Old vs New Batman was going to be between The Animated Series and The Batman. That would have been interesting.

    I always liked the mystery surrounding future NC movies. I could do without an update on what is to come. It kinda spoils the surprise...

    [b]TMNT[/b] Hmm, well, that'll be different ... I KINDA liked that movie. Sorta. :pinch:
    [b]Red Sonja[/b] Sounds familiar.
    [b]Short Circuit 1 & 2[/b] ... Wall-E?
    [b]Old Batman vs New Batman[/b] Bat Battle! Most Excellent.
    [b]Full House[/b] AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! !! *jumps out a window*
    [b]North[/b] Dunno what that is.

    I was hoping to see a dig into Full House.
    It'd be cool to see some sort of Miller-Boyett retrospective along with it. If only for a moment.
  • Bryguy87  - I think he should review a good show sometime
    avatar
    full house was ok but i would've put home improvement through a review, great points and perfect comedic timing
  • Karma X  - Uhhh... well, I dunno...
    TMNT?? Seriously??

    That movie was actually great. Not just good.. but really REALLY good.

    But then again, you also have a rather negative opinion of the other Ninja Turtle movies and those first two were also really great movies (even better than the new one, of course), and I generally disagree heavily with the criticisms of those movies, anyway...

    But to each their own I guess.

    I just won't be personally bothering to watch that one, as I didn't enjoy the reviews of the other Turtles movies either.

    But I can't see the decision to rip apart another great Turtles film being a very popular decision with Turtles fans, either.

    I mean, so it didn't have anything to do with the Shredder, but I don't see what's wrong with having the Turtles having other adventures since they lend themselves well to it.

    I also thought that the Raph vs Leo bit was beyond incredible, Karai was good, and the general plot was decent.

    I can't possibly imagine what there is to trash about that movie aside from maybe the fact that the Max Winters character could have been a bit more active in the story.

    But to each their own though. I just can't really see eye to eye with you about your views on the Turtles movies. Either the classics or the new film, of which I am still hoping for a sequel someday.

    Oh no. First 3 Ninjas, and now The Pagemaster.

    Not another movie from my childhood past ripped to shreds! :)
  • Brinny
    Booyah. I was hoping you'd review the Pagemaster!
  • Erinaceus  - Lookin' Good...
    avatar
    Ahhh... yes... The Pagemaster! One of those movies you love as a kid, forget about, then one day remember again and take off the Nostalgia-tinted glasses. Lay into it.

    Superman: I'm guessing will feature a lot of moments from III, IV, and Returns.

    TMNT: I saw it on HBO recently, and was left confused by it. And it was the biggest waste of Patrick Stewart's talent since, well, The Pagemaster.

    I liked the Short Circuit movies growing up, well the first one more so. I suppose this isn't the first time you've riffed something I like though.

    Old Batman vs. New Batman looks the most interesting.

    And Full House... South Park put it best when Stan quipped about America's Funniest Home Videos: "This show sucks! He's almost as bad as that guy on Full House".

    Yay, a Pagemaster review. I had a feeling a long time ago that you would review it. it is one of my top ten favorite cartoon movies (childhood nostalgia). even if you bash it, at least it will be funny. I look foward to enjoying this review no matter what.
  • thezenlu  - Haaaa!
    Love the list, but if you are going to gut me silly... which Short Ciruit( I assure you) will do, you should also attack the sweet emotion and none sensical realities of the Not Quite Human Trilogy and Batteries Not Included... Just sayin', You gonna gut someone get it all over with at once... Make him sit and wait out your devious devinings... [size=medium]It's Torture![/size] Yeah I said it...[size=x-small]makes me sick[/size]

    And Moonwalkers just not fair...It can't help it if it's not a real movie
  • CeliaKoda
    avatar
    Sadly, I don't remember a lot of those shows and films, but I've got a vague memory of watching Short Circuit and the Pagemaster.
    Old Batman vs. New Batman should be great!
  • Pantophobia
    avatar
    Pagemaster, eh?

    I loved that movie as a kid. I'm going to be very interested in how you bash that one.

    Here's a idea: keep putting in clips from "The Good Son". I think that would be really funny, Since Caulkin was in both movies.
  • yuetheguardian
    I like the movie North and see no problems with it at all, its a fun sort of nonsensical movie staring Elijah Wood.
  • SomecallmeJohnny  - Whoa, Pagemaster?
    avatar
    Talk about a movie I completely forgot about but remembers it instantly upon hearing the name. Have fun with that one.

    I'm really looking forward to the Top 11 Dumbest Superman Movie Moments. I only hope the whole "spinning the earth backwards causes time travel" event makes it.

    Speaking of TMNT, are you ever going to rip TMNT 3 a new one? I know you said in the earlier video it was horribafuckus but I think it deserves more "attention" than that. Looking forward to your future videos dude!
  • Shadow_Dinosaur

    Hmmm. The Pagemaster. XP
    I never really saw that movie.

    Lets see how you review this one.

    Superman and Full House sounds very interesting.

    Because Superman... let`s just say as I first saw the scene where he flies around the world... I don`t know what the hell this was!
    Even the Batman series of the sixties would have come up with something bettter than this.

    and Full House...
    oh dear god....
    you know, even the former stars of this make jokes. Ever heard of the Gilbert Gottfried sketch in which he tells the story how the Olsen Twins walk into a bar and ask for an asshurt?
    Let`s just say Bob Saget got owned in this joke.
    and the worst part of it, tzhis show is still on air, at last in germany. it is always again to watch on some channels, just as if it has become some sort of televisionary cancer with the most stupid "oww" moments in TV history. Honestly, how often where there scenes where a character got hugged?
    and the Olsen twins... I never thought them as babys "cute" that`s just... ergh.
  • Rattrap007

    Wow! I'm actually looking forward to ALL of these. Especially the first and last sets of 4 (all but Red Sonja)
  • TheFreakTrain  - STILL No "Last Action Hero?!"
    Come on, Doug! Why do you keep delaying "Last Action Hero?!" I WANNA SEE IT!!
  • That_girl_with_the_glasses
    avatar
    Pagemaster! Oh my God i LOVED that movie and still love it xD
    i´m reaaaaaaally curious now *.*
    *dance*
  • Crashunderride
    avatar
    I know its not technically Nostalgic but I thought It would be really funny to have Doug take a crack at the Dungeons and Dragons movie, I mean a lot of people used to play that game, so It's kinda nostalgic and I would love to watch him rip into that movie.
  • AdventChild
    avatar
    Cool! A Pagemaster review is gonna be great and I'm interested on how NC is gonna tear this one a new one since I thought it was an okay film. TMNT sounds interesting as well.
  • DanManX
    avatar
    I've been waiting for Pagemaster to pop up for awhile now. Even as a kid I remember it making no sense. And I was a REALLY easily amused child. I liked a lot of crap back then.

    Gotta say, though, North is almost too easy. Ebert can give you all the material you need.

    I like the "versus" idea too. It kinda fits in with your TMNT rationale. Maybe use it there too?
  • jkthedj  - Fuckin' A! YES!!!
    avatar
    [b]Pagemaster[/b]--Almost forgot about this movie...thanks for pre-emptively opening up old wounds.

    [b]Moonwalker[/b]--I'm sure this has something to do with Wacko Jacko, but I forget in what capacity.

    [b]Top 11 Dumbest Superman Movie Moments[/b]--Anything from Superman's 3 & 4 is enough to fill [i]2[/i] lists.

    [b]TMNT (Newer CG Version)[/b]--Really? (Pauses, Sighs) OK.

    [b]Red Sonja[/b]--You better put in a Flava Flav joke or two for Bridgitte Nielsen's sake (She [i]was[/i] Red Sonja, right? Just checking.).

    [b]Short Circuit 1 & 2[/b]--The Sequel is the bigger of two evils

    [b]Old Batman vs New Batman[/b]--Hmmm, I detect a Struzan-esque episode, no actual criticizm but just a friendly comparison. Should be interesting.

    [b]Full House[/b]--Requested this a long time ago, and I'm glad it made the cut...Even gladder that you'll cut it down to size...OH, BOB SAGET!!!

    [b]North[/b]--(A LA "Animated M. Bison") YES!!! YESSSSSSSS!!! Make Roger Ebert Proud on this one (Apparantly, he "Hated, hated, hated, hated this movie! Hated It!")!


    Quick 5 Requests:

    1. Where's "Last Action Hero"? We're waiting...

    2. "We're Back: A Dinosaur Story"

    3. Have you given any consideration to a "Warner Bros. Cartoons" month?

    4. "Hudson Hawk": Bruce Willis' Worst Role...Until "North" oddly enough.

    5. I'm gonna jump on the "Cats Don't Dance" bandwagon, Spay that kitty!

    This is gonna be a Sweet Spring!

    Okay I just... I didn`t see the short circuit part at the beginning but... oh come on Doug.
    I know this movie isn`t great and in some way chees, but at last you can watch it if there isn`t something better on tV.
    There are much worse movies to review.
    Also it was as I think the basic design idea for Wall-E so come on.

    Well okay.
    And as you are such a "fan" of cartoons based on videogames, here is an idea for some reviews in the future:

    1. Megaman
    The cartoon of 1996 would just be perfect. It didn`t make much sense, the storys were compared to the games stupid and there was a lot of adaptation decay with the characters.

    Captain N
    Lets summarize it like that:
    Videogame Nerd which looks more "build up" then other of his kind 8A videogame Ner dlooks like James Rolf, not like this) gets sucked up into the Nintendo land, where he has to help Megaman, Kid Icarus, Simon Belmont (which acts more like Troy McClure mixed with Beauty Smurf) and some other videogame characters in the fight aginst Mother Brain.

    Last but not least I dare you, to watch sometimes in the future the amazing spiderman.
    This show wasn`t bad in my opinion, but there are so many possible jokes alone based on "you have to watch everything to understasnd something" this show just as to be commented.
