Added DiffLines:

** He also calls out the hypocrisy in Mel Gibson being denied a role in the film because of his anti-semitism, only to once again have a cameo by Mike Tyson, despite Tyson being a convicted rapist who admitted that only he appeared in the first movie to fund his drug habit.

* He really tears into ''Film/TheCondemned,'' explaining at length why it doesn't work, how badly it failed, and just how reprehensible the results are. This includes pointing out the BrokenAesop of the movie.

* A meta one for both him and WebVideo/ToddInTheShadows. Their joint review of ''Alvin And The Chipmunks: The Squeakuel'' was mentioned on the Wikipedia article for the movie.



* The amount of research that Mathew does before each review is pretty amazing in and of itself.

Granted it was already literally unwatchable since there was little to no lighting in any scene and had an eyesore of a color tint throughout, but that ending was the final nail in the coffin.

* For ''Breaking Wind'', his decision not to review ''Twilight'' as he views it as "flogging a dead horse" and his disgust at the movie for using actual footage of ''Twilight'' fans for the purpose of mocking them, especially singling out the infamous [=Nuttymadam3575=], who he seriously believed to have a condition. Doubles as a CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming.
