    Wow...Theodore Rex! When I saw this movie on the list of movies you were going to review, I flipped out! I remember seeing this movie when I was little and thinking it sucked then. It's even worse to see it as an adult! By far one of Whoopi's worst movies! The very fact that she tried to back out of making this movie should prove that even SHE knew it would suck!

    By the way, I'm surprised Whoopi Goldberg has stayed off the Nostalgia Critic's radar for so long.

    Thank you VERY much, Doug, for having the balls to review this awful movie!

    Oh, totally. This movie has some of the lowest critic ratings I've ever seen a movie have. I was thinking of watching it once because I was bored and this was before I had cable TV, but the ratings were soooo horrible I decided I'd rather do nothing.

    I'm sure she'll get her share once NC gets to the MonkeyBone movie.

    Film Brain did a Monkeybone review already for Bad Movie Beatdown. Not saying NC can't do it also, but if you're looking for a Monkeybone bash, this ought to hold you over:

    Would Monkeybone even be considered to be "Nostalgic"?...Then again, he did review a few non-nostalgic movies due to requests. Hmm...

    It was because they were related to Nostalgic franchises.

    exactly!!!


    um does anyone want Bhargvav/MA-TI to play RUFIO in the NC Video of HOOK???

    I might be beating a drum on this, but try and argue that Bhargav playing RUFIO is a Bad idea if you have the preverbial gumption. - see...

    feel free to comment...

    i will pay for the costume and the coconut-golden sword if it means epic hilarity can ensue! o-fricken-yeah!

    Yea,kind of weird that Whoopi has dodged Doug's reviews for a while eh XD?

    but remember in the Pagemaster? Whoopi was the Fansety book. so this is the second time she's been on the Critic's reviews
  • KingGramJohnson

    But she wasn't the main actor in that movie.

    I reacted the same way! This movie is just awful! I saw it on tv a few months back an I was thinking it was some horrible joke. I am so glad he reviewed this!

    I wonder when The Nostalgia Critic is gonna review something that isn't complete crap. He should review every Chubby Broccoli production Bond film from 1962's Doctor No to 1999's The World Is Not Enough because those films are a lot of things but complete crap isn't one of them. But The Nostalgia Critic obviously doesn't have the balls to review each Bond film separately every week.
  • 13secondstomidnight
    avatar
    ... I hate to say it, but there are quite a few bond movies that fall under the heading "complete crap." Or simply "really really boring." Your opinion may vary.

    However, the closer they are to the books, the worse they are (one of the few instances were the books that started the series were worse than the movies they spawned).
  • selekk

    Ummmmmmmmmm... 1. It's kinda his gimmik to review total crap. 2. If he did all of those, don't you think people would at least get a [i][/i]little[i][/i] tired of him? Hm? 3. Because he doesn't choose to review them, he doesn't have balls? Whaaat? Not good enough, F minus minus.

    Honestly, I know I might not have that good taste in films, but seriously.... I actually think this movies looks OK.

    I agree.

    I must disagree with you here, Critic, this looks like a silly, light-hearted movie that doesn't take itself seriously. It doesn't look like a "disaster of a movie," and I think calling it such is a bit harsh.

    Don't get me wrong, I found the review hilarious, but that's because you're always hilarious. I just disagree that this was a horrible movie. Far from the best, to be sure, but not horrible.

    One specific thing I disagree with you on is the sequence around the ten minute mark. Switching between two (or more) unrelated scenes, is quite common (just look at all six of the [i]Star Wars[/i] movies for an example), allowing to show simultaneous events while keeping the tension of the respective scenes high. Whether [i]Theodore Rex[/i] accomplished it here is certainly up for debate, but I think it's wrong to dismiss such a commonly used editing sequence out of hand.

    You're kidding. Right?

    Anyone with half a brain can tell this movie is fucking horrendous.

    Are you saying that you possess LESS than half a brain? Because i'm sure that's what your comment seems to be saying, to me.

    There's no defending this garbage. None.
  • sam29
    Where in Star Wars does this happen? I don't recall two completely unrelated scenes ever occurring simultaneously in Star Wars, not even in the prequels. Don't go saying now about the battles in and off planet, because those were related.
  • Kymba_Scion
    Yeah, I remember seeing it as a kid as well, and having the same opinion. You know a kids movie is bad, when kids refuse to watch it.

    I don't know what this was...but thank the gods i never saw it while i was a kid! Damn this was bad! Funny review though! As always!

    Wow! Howard the Duck & now Theodore Rex! These movies make the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle movies look Oscar worthy! :P

    I must have a dirty mind because I think they should have built the sprinkle testacle building next to the Washington Monument. :D

    LMAO xD There were some great puns in this review.

    The movie itself is disgustingly childish and lazily written.

    yay! New NC! I hated this movie too. Whoopi in a skintight suit? ewww....
  • KKmario_fan  - Great review
    avatar
    It is sad when these animatronics make the Country Bear Jamboree look legit. Great review, but I was surprised you didn't put in a "Put that cookie down!" joke. :woohoo:
  • darkmindedsith

    I think it's safe to say the people who designed the animatronics for the Garbage Pail Kids worked on this film...

    And probably the ones on Turtles: Coming Out of Their Shells as well.

    guessing it was JP this week.....but its a movie that probably would have made me hate dinosaurs if i watched this as a kid, great review as always.
  • moviebuffmel90
    avatar
    Wow. This makes Howard the Duck look like an A- homework assignment. I didn't think it was that bad, but by god, what where they thinking. Also, interesting note, Whoopi actually tried to remove herself from production multiple times. So what they do? Give her more money. Yeah, that's were the budget went. Anyway, at least it's a breath of fresh air from last week's review.

    I never even knew this movie existed till now. Of course, you have to wonder why it does, especially after watching your review of it.

    Oh, man. And here I thought the final episode of "Dinosaurs" was tragic.

    Actually, I'm kind of interested to see a Betty White/TMNT team-up. Then again, I am somewhat deranged. :silly:

    This movie wasn't as bad as it was ridiculous. In fact, the lame tail and cookie gags weren't that annoying to me, at least when you compare them to all the absurd things that supposedly existed in the movie's universe. This movie is the first one I have found in a while that didn't even try to be good. It just found a couple of things that could make a somewhat decent trailer and get ticket sales. I hate this movie for that. There was obviously no effort put by most of the creators. Especially at the end. Many of the shots were unoriginal (I could think of at least four films it ripped off, such as ET when they're flying in front of the moon), and as you pointed out, it was very anticlimactic. Wow, this film wasn't that bad, but I guess the fact that you didn't even have to point out most of its flaws was the thing that got me so angry at it. Heck, I was never a TMNT fan, and yet I'd still rather see Betty White team up with them than remember this film. So basically, great review as always, and awful movie.
  • REALmikegordan@ymail.com
    A little bit of trivia: This movie actually did so horribly during test screenings that they decided not to release this movie in theaters and release it direct-to-video instead. Was their scheme originally to try to gain a quick buck? Maybe. But if that was the case, they failed long before they even started.

    God, this movie is so bad it wasn't released, it escaped.

    Great review NC.

    that dinosaur is the stupidest thing i've ever seen
  • REALmikegordan@ymail.com
    A bit of trivia: That dinosaur was voiced by Sephiroth from Final Fantasy VII. Now to play snippets of One-Winged Angel over still images of that dinosaur. rofl
  • JoeyJoeJoe
    The voice actor for a game with no voices is pretty impressive.
  • UltimateOne
    Uh, yeah. Advent Children and Kingdom Hearts 2. How are those for a game and a movie featuring Sephiroth, with no voice acting? Oh wait, no. They did have a voice for the character.

    Dumbass.
  • metroidslayer01
    you, sir critic, are one funny S.O.B.
  • UltimateOne
    Don't be so hard on yourself.

    No, ok. On second though, be hard on yourself. Your comment IS annoying.
  • RocketGruntKenny
    Let me justify/rephrase: it is of my opinion that the Critic's sense of humor is annoying. I am not saying that nobody should like him; bless him for finding a huge following and audience with his show, and I wish him the best.

    However, I just find his sense of humor/jokes annoying, and I personally don't like it. Too much repetition of the same joke, sometimes one joke in particular can go on for too long (the "NO!" fit in the Drop Dead Fred review, or the crying in the Saved By The Bell review), and the screaming and fits of rage can grind my gears.

    But as I said, [b]this is just my opinion, and that's it.[/b] I'm not trying to disrespect or hate on anybody, I'm just expressing what I think about the Critic.
  • atypicaloracle
    avatar
    Er... why are you here? I mean it's obvious from your comment that you've watched multiple Nostalgia Critic reviews, which means that for some reason, you found something that annoys you... and then kept watching it in order to "express your opinion" which is "not disrespectful."

    Can someone help me out here? I think this is that thing called "trolling," but I can't be positive.

    Do you know that Golberg got a Extra $Million to her contract: after winning a lawsuit against the producers for refusing to sign on to this movie?
  • Moreno X  - Yikes. Howard the Duck and now this.
    I....have....nothing..... else to say.... I have never watch this movie at all. So seeing this movie here, it's the most disgraceful film ever............of all time. Poor Whoopi, what was she thinking? :(
  • MollyWobbles6093

    Apparently, she was thinking "MONEY IN THE BANK!" According to previous comments, anyway.

    What were the creators smoking when they made this? I think the whole movie would've made sense if it had been Whoopi Goldberg on "Star Trek The Next Generation" getting trapped in the holodeck after it had a virus LOL.
