Ah man so did I lol!

04.04.2010 - 18:50 | RoomyWhat video did you use for the very first house exploding in the massive exploding scene? I mean the very first one after "explain!" at 18:29. What video was that? Do you have a link to that video? It's a really awesome explosion, and I wanna see where it came from. It's really high resolution, too, but it doesn't exactly look like just movie fluff explosion stuff. Do you have a link to it, Critic?
Also, I've been watching more and more of your videos since I found them. You're a really amazing video series maker, and your Nostalgia series is really funny and entertaining. And you get better and better as it goes, too. Hope to see lots more.

I still love this movie and although it is just a mind fuck sometimes, it's still a good movie I think. They did explain some of the crazyness in parts, you just gotta really be listening for it, but overall still a funny ass review! B)

AWESOME REVIEW!

I predicted all of the Holy Grail references, but I still laughed.
"The Ogre's butt", is the single greatest line in cinema and needs all the recognition in the world. Also, this movie is original!

You forgot "Monkey!" and "Bob-omb!" :D

Can't believe this shit inspired the Prayer!

Actually you are both wrong. This film was written around the song. Unfortunately, the song gets muddled down with the BS of this movie.
To prove my point, I forgot about the song half-way through this review. It was you two who reminded me about the song.
-
03.02.2010 - 23:42 | DarklingBrilliant review. I was a little nervous you might focus too heavily on Garrett's blindness. I'm glad you didn't. You made fun of all the things I noticed wrong with it upon my first viewing. I'm glad you made the jokes that you did. It was great.

I watched this every day when I was a kid. I liked that the girl's name was Kayley, same as mine (and spelled the same way!) I've been waiting for this review for at least a month.

I thought this movie was a nightmare I had when I was younger...

god i hated those dragons

03.02.2010 - 23:44 | dramaqueen810Last Tuesday I watched Quest for Camelot and was like "I should request this to the Nostalgia Critic!" and then on the top villain songs you said you were going to and I freaked out! In a good way haha :D

03.02.2010 - 23:44 | *Blargen*
sweety buttery jesus.....
-
03.02.2010 - 23:55 | GreensticI... loved this movie as a kid... :(
When I saw your upcoming list of Nostalgia Critic episodes and saw Quest for Camelot on there I freaked out. I told myself "It wasn't a bad movie, he can't be TOO hard on it can he?". After the intro I knew I could never look back at my childhood the same way ever again.
Still another hilarious episode nevertheless! Tears were cried and laughs were had! :cheer:
Edit: Also, I can sum up all of its flaws in one sentence. [b]It was a chilren's fantasy movie trying to compete with Disney![/b]
-
03.02.2010 - 23:45 | SayaCelineFinally! I've been waiting all day for this! I love this movie so much even for it's flaws :)

03.02.2010 - 23:45 | dreaminonThis review is hilarious

love it!

You know when I first saw the commercials for this movie, I figured it would be a welcome return to the classic tales of knights and fantasy.
But what I got was an uninspired cast of characters, the most putrid array of monsters and mythological beasts ever assembled, and a villain who belongs on the set of Inspector Gadget. Not to mention the most disgraceful dragon ever produced by an animator. Seriously, the Reluctant Dragon was more threatening than those two gay wads. As per your worries in your musical countdown from last episode, you were more than justified for being disgusted. The songs here are a collection of prissy nothings from the "prince," and the stupidest Abbot and Costello musical from the gaylord dragons.
I thank you for ripping apart this atrocity. I think I'll go watch the Flight of Dragons now. THAT was a real fantasy.
-
03.03.2010 - 16:54 | Shadowdancer21b
The Flight of Dragons would need to be remade...if only they ever, EVER did remakes right. Only ones worth a fart were the Thing and the Omen (simply because it was an almost shot-for-shot recreation.).
-
03.05.2010 - 17:49 | PirateKingEhhh. It was all right. Most of the songs are actually pretty good (especially the lee ann rhymes one.)
-
03.26.2010 - 14:19 | PirateKingI respectfully disagree. Gary Oldman was delightfully mad, and he actually was kind of scary. I mean he grabs a fucking flail in mid swing, which can't be easy. The idea of weapons merging with people is sort of creative, although I'll admit the characters are weak. I still feel the acting was good.

03.02.2010 - 23:48 | TodReynard43
I haven't seen this in so long! Tried to watch it again but......I couldn't.
-
03.02.2010 - 23:48 | manonthe3upOh, the memories! I loved this movie as a kid... not so much now, though.
-
03.02.2010 - 23:50 | Tboz725good as usual doug =]
-
03.03.2010 - 00:39 | Chipmunk ManHaha the stuff you go through for these reviews...i feel your pain. In defense of the movie though, the animation is actually pretty decent. But decent animation does not make up for horrible plot. Love the Captain Planet and Quest for the Grail references ^_^...and seriously HOW THE FUCK COULD I BASTARDIZE CLINT EASTWOODS LINE? HOW HOW HOW?!...And how could he kill Mary Poppins thats not right!
-
I have to disagree with any opinions that this movie sucked. I still consider it a personal fave. But even with a great movie, you still made the review hilarious. I can appreciate that.
And by "personal fave" I mean that it actually did suck. Jeez... Too many damn songs.
-
03.02.2010 - 23:52 | ThatCreepyChickMy sympathies....I hope you will recover from this review.
-
03.02.2010 - 23:52 | o0treegirl0oI love this movie... or I did when I was 5 >.
-
03.03.2010 - 17:31 | ScourgeXLVII
yeah... me too... but technically I was drifting in and out, so all I saw really was the kick-ass blind dude's scene where he beats up the knights... that and the fact that the half-weapon guards who, at the time, seemed cool, but now... are just weird.
-
03.02.2010 - 23:53 | Kimarous
When I first heard that you were going to review this, I thought "I didn't think it was THAT bad." Now I realize that the only reason I thought I liked the movie (and the only stuff I like from the movie) is the music.
Thank you for setting me straight in such an entertaining manner.

03.03.2010 - 00:05 | aurum-feminaI remember really wanting to see this movie when I was seven. I got the Happy Meal toys and everything.
This film was my first disappointment.
In fact, last year, I tried to muddle up some kind of nostalgia from it by rewatching it. Did nothing. D:
Thank you so much for reviewing this, Nostalgia Critic! This was an amazing review, as usual!
Man, I thought those songs were random, too. D:
-
03.03.2010 - 00:35 | Kalo
I did the same thing last year. Its ok. This movie is a cruel deciever.
-
03.02.2010 - 23:53 | AstroAll sarcasm aside (apparently, sarcasm can't be detected here), this movie did not stand the test of time. Good review, Doug!
-
03.02.2010 - 23:58 | DBZGoodDBGTBadGreat review NC!

I watched this when I was a kid, and I didn't even knew the blind guy was blind...
-
03.05.2010 - 17:50 | PirateKingneither did i.

What's with this Disney vs WB phenomenon?
Mickey Mouse vs Bugs Bunny
Donald Duck vs Daffy Duck
Haunted Mansion vs Scooby Doo
Marvel vs DC
Tron vs the Matrix
Prince of Persia vs 300
90's Classic Sonic (Disney made some popular Genesis games) vs Pokemon
Club Penguin vs Happy Feet
Disneyland vs Six Flags
...and the list goes on!
Even Star Wars is involved! (Star Tours vs The Clone Wars)
-
01.05.2012 - 19:26 | SRanger1071Scooby Doo has nothing to do with Haunted Mansion. A bunch of concerned parents went to the TV people and demanded a show that their children could watch. Mr. Hanna and Mr. Barbera (who I assume bonded in grade school over their girly last names and the torment they received) had created a few mystery shows named after the bizarre mascot before that were mildly successful, so they were signed on to create a new cartoon for kids that didn't suck and was appropriate. The final result; Scooby Doo.
