You know what honestly bothered me more than the "what would the leprechaun do with the gold once he has it" question? The fact that absolutely none of the murders need to happen. Just give the leprechaun his damn gold back. If anything, the humans are the bad guys. The leprechaun is just taking back what's his.
Also, seriously, the guy's freaking magical. He blows a hole in a guy's chest in one movie, and these idiot humans STILL refuse to give up their single gold coin. Just give the guy his money, and the movie will be over!
-
10.31.2010 - 23:42 | Lucia32You know, when you put it like that, the Leprechaun is very much a Objectivist hero: he just wants what's his by the sweat of his brow and will not be held down by social norms.
...at the very least, he would've made "Atlas Shrugged" entertaining.
-
11.01.2010 - 17:12 | j03b0b0fd00mI wondered that too. The whole time I'm just like "you don't want it anyway, and he TOLD you what he wanted! just fucking give it back already!"
dumbasses.

I agree with you 100% Lotus Prince...as do many other posters.
It's kind of like those stereotypical 'bad' dragon stories where people accuse the dragon of being the bad guy when realy it's them....after all, they barged in on its territory and start building a kingdom which reduces the places it can fly or stroll, steal its food sorce (taking wildlife and putting them in farms which again reduces the dragons food supply making it end up hunting and eating humans out of starvation and desperation) and possibly stole any 'treasure' it collected and then they act all "oooh help! run! a big, evil, ugly dragon...kill it! kill it!" when it attacks theit city....just leave the poor fucking thing alone!!
I love dragons and I hate those stereotypical stories.
I know this is going off topic, youyou get the gist...the same goes for this story...give the leprechaun his gold and he will go away...after all what would YOU do if some pathetic alien creatures stole something you held dear and you wanted it back?....of course! you'd MAKE them give it back...make those theiving bastards pay!
-
11.04.2010 - 06:39 | tootiredHe murders people who have no connection to the gold and from what he says he would kill them anyway for having the gold in the first place.
Plus he isn't a leprechaun he is another creature that looks like a leprechaun, is mistaken for a leprechaun and this creature will call itself a leprechaun. The name of the creature escapes me.

lol, I love the part where they talk about being mistaken for brothers. I would have loved to have been there to see that happen.
You have to admit though, the resemblance is uncanny, like with Rob Walker and the AVGN, I remember everyone on the youtube comments thinking that "Santa Christ" was James. And for a sec there I almost thought so too until they showed the end credits.

I always said when the Critic and the Snob teamed up it would be epic. Would your celebrity couple name be NostalgiaSnob or CinemaCritc?
Rob's commentary-cameo was the highlight, IMHO. Thanks for getting together for this, and for the commentary; it's hilarious. :D

Wow, I actually caught this early on. And no "First Poster"? Amazing!
Glad to see another commentary. I always love hearing you guys talk about videos you've made. And they always turn out hilarious. :D
-
10.31.2010 - 23:03 | Elzarynn"Wow, I actually caught this early on. And no "First Poster"? Amazing!"
It's true! Christmas has come early this year! Like, really come early, not just jump-started the shopping season.

10.31.2010 - 22:37 | DungeonsAndFlagonsWhoops! Missing embed param: File. :(
-
10.31.2010 - 23:04 | ElzarynnThat's weird. Works fine for me.

Is it just me, or does everyone on TGWTG love doing Cinema Snob impersonations?
-
11.01.2010 - 00:29 | whatever42
I think you already know the answer to that question Data Human. :)
Anyway, I always like hearing the commentaries about what goes into these reviews, and this was no exception. I'm not surprised that both of you kind of want to see the rest of the series. It's so delightfully campy and silly that it's something everyone should see at least once.
Maybe sometime in the future, one of you should review one of the sequels to this movie and come together once again. Maybe for next Halloween. Just a thought, but either way, great job on the review itself.
Oh, and for the record, I also love that line from Tim Curry in It. ah-HA ah-HA ah-HA :)

10.31.2010 - 22:43 | ganondorf49As Always Fucking Awesome Good job Doug and Brad

10.31.2010 - 22:45 | TheBlackMage
It's too bad you guys don't do more crossovers. I mean you practically live next door to each other.
-
10.31.2010 - 23:05 | SeraphemLove it, the review was awesome, and the commentary just as hilarious.
-
10.31.2010 - 23:12 | B-NavigatorIt's been a few years since I've seen Leprechaun, but as to why he wants his gold, I'm pretty sure there were two tiny bits- one where right after revival he complains about how his powers have faded leading to "I need me gold!" and when he recovers some of his gold he makes a comment about his powers returning.
-
10.31.2010 - 23:14 | Critic Fan JillGreat commentary of a great crossover review of a gr...AWFUL movie.
-
10.31.2010 - 23:15 | TheListenerCanonYou SHOULD review Ed and Almost Heros! Oh, and Don't Tell Mom would be good too!
-
10.31.2010 - 23:27 | DuosAngel
You guys really are great together. Thanks for doing a commentary for this. I hope to see more Critic and Snob crossovers in the future.
-
10.31.2010 - 23:29 | Justice for none
Look at me I want attention!
-
10.31.2010 - 23:33 | RoninOfDeath
what if Lucky clovers are some kind of cheap store brand rip off. They have Lucky charms their just to cheap to pay the 50 cents.
-
11.01.2010 - 04:29 | Crystal-Heart
Thats what I was thinking. The world of Leprechaun must have Lucky Clovers in the same vein as Malt-o-Meal's Marshmallow Mateys (the Lucky Charms knock-off sitting on my cheap ass fridge).
-
10.31.2010 - 23:41 | Gethenian
Commentary! Yay. These are always so great to listen to. Thank you guys for doing one.
Also... LOL Rob. I do wish he got more attention in fandom (unless there's some part of it I haven't found yet where he does...), Rob is one seriously hilarious and talented dude.
...and I sound like such an asskisser but YOU CANNOT DENY THE TRUTH.
-
10.31.2010 - 23:45 | CrimsonMoonMistI was hoping we'd see a commentary of this one,
good suff.
-
10.31.2010 - 23:54 | stillravenmad
Leprechaun In The Hood is awful, but it DOES feature the leprechaun rapping.
-
11.01.2010 - 00:13 | der_ketzer
How could you forget to credit Dolomite!
-
11.01.2010 - 01:29 | Lucia32What makes a movie scary, HD?
Well, after 1999 the answer came to us all: let it be directed by George Lucas. Now that's terrifying.
-
11.01.2010 - 01:47 | Divide By Zero
Ahh, love seeing you guys work together.
I need to go watch Kickassia again, then come back and watch this review.
-
11.01.2010 - 02:52 | leonsksat the end Nostalgia Critic should have sad "but do they"
-
11.01.2010 - 03:13 | LikaLaruku
I prefur the reviewers to disagree with eachother, otherwise it just comes off as unfair bashing. There's also something less entertaining about people agreeing with eachother as opposed to fighting....unless they're rivals who normally vehemently disagree with eachother, working together to slam something they both hate.
-
11.01.2010 - 03:50 | Crystal-HeartJust so you guys know, you need to review Leprechaun 4: In Space..the frickin' leprechaun comes out of, get this..some guy's penis! Thats not even the most absurd that movie gets..it honestly ridiculous. I'd understand if you guys wanted to do the other 2 first, but this one is a must.
..oh yeah..and if I remember correctly, it never explains why he's in Space..he just is..on some alien planet..
-
11.01.2010 - 04:09 | The Pinoy567
Funny and epic video!!!!LOL
-
11.01.2010 - 04:22 | jurf-rokstar
Dammit, he still didn't catch that the little boy looked like Lucas not Ness. Meh, doesn't matter. Fuck you, Lucky Charms! Sill epic.
-
11.01.2010 - 15:25 | Falcovsleon20
I'd be more interested if Doug only knows of Ness via Smash Bros. (since he used Ness' Brawl image) like most people do or if he's actually played Earthbound itself because if it's the latter then that would be awesome. That game needs more love y'know.
-
11.01.2010 - 18:00 | Morgoth Bauglir
He has an SNES, and Ness came from "Earthbound", an SNES game. Do the math.
-
11.01.2010 - 17:10 | j03b0b0fd00mNo, it's definitely Ness. He wears a hat, has Ness' shirt, and has black (brown, whatever) hair that sits down rather than blond Jimmy Neutron hair.
-
11.01.2010 - 21:31 | jurf-rokstarHe's wearing Lucas' shirt. I was just playing Brawl.
-
11.01.2010 - 04:36 | Cross X. Brand
There should be Leprauchan month were all the movie reviewers do one of the Leprauchaun movies as it would relate to their comedic style.
NC, MikeJ, FilmBrain, Snob, Spoony, Dena, Duddette if shes not too busy, and of course Phaelous
-
11.01.2010 - 06:54 | Chino
My god guys, you need to see Leprechaun in space! It's so insanely cheesy, the Leprechaun has Luke Skywalkers Lightsaber!
And Doug will LOVE Dr. Mittenspider! It's like that dude from lost in space, but AWESOME!
-
11.01.2010 - 07:15 | projoe719srise
Aww poor Rob :(
-
11.01.2010 - 07:19 | DeSandman
I've only seen Leprechaun 1,2 and 3. Three is my favorite for the rhymes that the Leprechaun says.
