Sidekicks
Wednesday, 17 June 2009 00:27
There was a bit of trouble with the PAL DVD -> NTSC video file conversion on the Sidekicks movie. This causes a lot of giant interlacing and blur during the action scenes. Sorry in advance!

people like making fun of Arnold Shwarznegger even though the dude was CONAN/TERMINATOR/ the guy from Predator ... so I don't see why we shouldn't make fun of MAKO when he does some crappy stuff...
-
06.17.2009 - 03:08 | albinotanuki
Only because the people who hired him didn't see Mako's TRUE potential. Watch either Samurai Jack or Avatar if you ever get the chance.
-
06.19.2009 - 21:54 | TheGodEmperor
I agree with that Avatar is shit. Samurai Jack isn't so bad but who was Mako in it?
-
06.22.2009 - 16:43 | zedadex
Aku kicked ass! I didn't know that it Mako was his voice actor though.
Personally, I wouldn't judge an actor either way based on only a couple of performances, so Mako's okay I guess.

I agree that they are shit. Chuck Norris has Ashma??????
I met a guy who was friends with Chuck, and the guy mentioned nothing about asma!

Mako is okay in Conan. But he was AWESOME when he voiced Aku for Samurai Jack. I was not able to watch Avatar though but I knew right off the bat that Mako kicks ass.
-

Avatar was a cool show, but Samurai Jack was nothing but bullshit that was an insult to the way of the Samurai

yeah the big difference? ARNOLD ISNT DEAD. HELLO!!! EARTH TO PEOPLE!!! making
fun of dead people is not in good taste. also ben we should just review your
reviews and tear them a new asshole because they suck. and one more note YOU
SPELLED WRITTEN AT THE END WRONG, ALONG WITH SIDEKICKS they got a word for that
incorrect spelling it starts with a D, i think its... Dumbass.
-
06.17.2009 - 14:31 | blaap
Well just do it: do a review about ben's review... Show us how clever and funny you are when facing the camera. But i think you dont have the...what is it...eer...goes by pair...it begin with a B...
Anyway, tremendous vid, critic, as usual !
-
06.17.2009 - 14:39 | thefrenchguysucks
i would do a review about bens reviews, but considering how its already a waste of time watching it i'll leave it to the so called pros, its true i cant handle somethin that shitty i'd rather watch skinned deep 2 times over before doing that. so you can suck my...umm....ya know...yer ma likes it....it begins with a D

-
06.17.2009 - 17:14 | twilightgamer92
Uh, if it's not cool to make fun of dead people, then shouldn't we feel bad about the gestapo from raider's of the lost ark who died of cancer or the Sea Quest kid who hung himself because his career was in the toilet?
-
06.18.2009 - 07:12 | thefrenchguysucks
hey genius in my comment i said "dead people" not "person" im well aware of jonathan brandis hanging himself and thats why i say to poke fun at the deceased is just immoral....
-
06.18.2009 - 07:08 | ThatProtoDudeWithTheShades
You dare criticize Doug's spelling the same time you yourself write "They got a word for that"..
It's "They've got" or They have", bucko.

And I think (They got) a sentence for incorrect people like you... it starts with a D.. I think it's... "Die in a fire."

-
06.18.2009 - 12:39 | thefrenchguysucks - School me son!
Get off his nuts you faggot. Also just so you know the word "AND" does not start a sentence. Next time you want to "school" me make sure you do your homework....p.s proto man sucks.
-
06.26.2009 - 10:24 | GoldenPoncho
Actually, the whole 'and' not starting a sentence thing is BS your elementary school teacher told you.
-
06.19.2009 - 21:55 | TheGodEmperor
if they made something bad in life, just cause their dead doesn't mean it's any better.

making fun of dead people isnt right? it all depends. I'm sure everyone here is gonna make fun of you when you'll be dead cause sometimes it's really funny. especially when the people we laugh at are assholes.... like you!
and by the way... Ben does great reviews, you're just jealous cause you're a dick and you jerk off by looking at ladyboy stuff.
go hang yourself in a closet... and by the way... your name... Thefrenchguysucks... i guess your real name is Thefrenchguy.. cause you do suck alot!

06.17.2009 - 17:11 | twilightgamer92 - Mako defense
1. Unlike Mako, Arnold has no talent.
2. Mako was an academy award nominated actor, so he has my respect. I'd never make fun of him.
3. Mako still had a career after this movie, while Arnold gave the acting thing up.

2. so has arnold and arnold has got some
3.he wanted to make more of a livingarnold has more talent then mako

Mako might have been a good actor but he is just too easy to make fun of here!
And Arnold is likable....not terribly good but likable.
But under no circumstance does that hinder you from making fun of both!
-

I think (hope) what a lot of people got upset about was the fact that he was making fun of Mako's voice in TMNT, when he died of throat cancer. Though, obviously, Doug didn't know that or else I doubt he would have made the comment about sounding like he had lung cancer in it.
I actually thought Doug's Mako jokes in this were pretty hilarious XD;
-
06.21.2009 - 04:15 | ThatDudeInTheSuede2 - DUH!
Because if we mess with Mako, we'll most likely be murdered in our sleep. BETTER SAFE THEN....DEAD.
-
06.22.2009 - 16:39 | zedadex
Yeah, but that's because of his venture into politics. Plus, Mako died.
-
09.02.2009 - 16:51 | Someguywhousesthiswebsite
Well Shwartzenegger is a bad actor who is in good movies, and Mako is a good actor who is in bad movies.
-
06.17.2009 - 17:40 | AngryJoeShow - 5 Stars 4 Reals!
Holy Sh*T hahaha, I just had to pause this video and give credit where credit is due. I'm 9 minutes In and Ive laughed my ass off so much already, more than the last 3 NC's combined! Man this one is top notch, I dont want this to end!
And I might actually even rent this movie now!
A Great Episode so far! Can I get a Hell Yeah?
That is all.
-
06.18.2009 - 12:51 | dontbearip
way to rip off james rolfe when it comes to the comic book art...its nice art but you just copied his style...other than that the vid is good.
-
06.16.2009 - 20:32 | Skitch - Oh Man..
I remember this movie so much...the movie was hilarious enough without a review like this being thrown at it.
Great job, as always!

06.16.2009 - 20:33 | laker24 - danmanx
u banned me thinking i was steven when i really was immario can u plz unban me

Yes! Staying up late is worth it for the Nostalgia Critic!
Great Review!

06.17.2009 - 01:02 | Erinaceus - Careful When It Comes to the SeaQuest Reference...
SeaQuest DSV may be a little too obscure, even for people around here, N.C.
Aw, who am I kiddin'? We're the crem della crem of Geekdom. Here is probably the only place SeaQuest is remembered.
Unfortunately, the kid who plays Barry (Jonathan Brandis), tragically died a few years ago. It was said that he committed suicide. Must've ticked off the great Chuck Norris too somehow. Or realized he had been in Ladybugs. Very sad. It seems you may have been ignorant of this fact in making the review, but with any luck there aren't enough Jonathan Brandis fans out there to cause another Mako situation.
Ah, speaking of Mako... uh... no criticisms. HE IS THE GREETEST EVAH! (Don't kill me fanboys!)
Great review, N.C., as always. Especially fond of the ending. And the high notes. NOR-IIIIIIIIIIIIIISS!

Umm, at least he didn't make any jokes about the DeLuise bros, or Darwin the talking Dolphin. Now THAT'S obscure!

Don't forget Sam Raimi's bro, Ted, who's pretty much everywhere on teevee.

Sadly its probably true that there aren't enough fans out there to cause a big fuss like what happened with the TMNT review.

06.16.2009 - 20:57 | Deux - CHuck?
How you Dare defy Chuck norris??!!!....
well this movie sucks..i agree...i hope chuck norris dont use my head 2 wipe his assPS: FUCK MAKO
-
06.16.2009 - 23:22 | CrimsonDusk - That't really rude
OK could someone do something about this guy for spewing random curses in a disrespectful manner to a departed person. I know NC got allot of backlash for his TMNT reference to Mako, although I am a fan of his work and didn't feel that offended, but you shouldn't start throwing random curses just because people felt insulted. I hope people negative thumb you so that your shameful post will not be seen.
-
06.17.2009 - 05:43 | Manic Monkey
Atleast he didn't say Mako got knocked up during a Yankee's game.

Funny review.

-
06.17.2009 - 03:07 | albinotanuki
Dude, don't say that about Mako! He could come back from the dead and beat your ass worse than whatever Chuck Noris can do with his pinky.

you can not compare Mako to the unbelievable strong Chuck Norris!
he can piss into gale force winds >.>
chuck norris can kill ppl by looking at them >.>

06.16.2009 - 20:42 | Krimmson
This movie brings back too many memories. I remember back then I thought Mako was Mr. Miyagi. (I was 4 dammit!)
And Chuck Norris... The coolest Republican to have ever existed.
-
06.16.2009 - 20:57 | agentdrew
great review.by the way is it just me or is it that when someone daydream it's always next to a window
-
06.16.2009 - 20:57 | MFields1978 - Oui
I remember seeing that with my dad and the embarrassment I felt watching it next to him... like the Super Mario Bros. movie. Why was that movie ever made is beyond me.
-
06.16.2009 - 21:00 | thatdudeinthekhakis - Chuck Norris
As a speech and debater I hear alot of Chuck Norris jokes and this review lightened my mood about them great work Doug
-
06.16.2009 - 21:00 | Mr. Dogma
This was entirely worth staying up late to watch.
Though, I was fighting hard to keep from laughing so loud that I'd wake up everyone else.

-
06.16.2009 - 21:01 | Pikmintaro - CHUCK NORRIS!!!!
YEEEAHHH Awesome review and awesome Chuck Norris!!!!
And the Michael Jackson one was definitely more self indulgent since it was made by the Jackson himself and most of it was just him glorifying himself.
And besides I prefer Chuck Norris over Jackson anyday
Norris >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Jackson

-
06.17.2009 - 19:20 | The Chosen One
This is Chuck Norris?
... Either this'll be the greatest movie ever, or this will be the cheesiest piece of crap yet, with no grip on physics... SCREW FIZZIX!!!
EDIT: ... Okay. It has no grip on common sense, and all the people in it are either mentally screwed up or clinically unhealthy...
BUT WHO CARES?!!! THE MESSIAH IS HERE!!!
CHUCK-AA-NORIIIIISS!!!
-
06.16.2009 - 21:03 | DanManX
Oh that was awesome. You had Chuck Norris jokes, the return of Mako to NC's world (you've gotta wonder, if a guy shows up in this many bad movies, maybe it's the people DEFENDING him who are overreacting...), and bad, nonsensical dream sequences. Gotta love it.
-
06.16.2009 - 21:13 | rambofan1 - baned from chat accidently
recently u banned me from chat thinking i was steven when i really was fricking immario. wat happened was the internet disconnected and i signed out. when i signed back in i was banned. Can u do anything to fix it dan.PLZ.

06.16.2009 - 21:03 | rastafariman
I want the dramatic singing of the name "Chuck Norris" for a ringtone.
-
06.16.2009 - 21:04 | SpazzMaster
a chuck-a-NORRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISSS!!!
...but seriousily, lay off the "I'm acting" joke. It is not funny anymore...but if Chuck Norris wills it...
Fuck it. FLAME ME!!!
-
06.17.2009 - 17:50 | Someguywhousesthiswebsite
I really have to agree that the "I'm acting" joke isn't funny anymore.
