Rabin was one of six longstanding A.V. Club writers (including editor in chief Keith Phipps and film editor Scott Tobias) to leave the site between late 2012 and Spring 2013, for Pitchfork Media's film website ''The Dissolve''. He continues to look for failed flicks in [[http://thedissolve.com/features/forgotbusters/ "Forgotbusters"]], which compiles movies that grossed enough for the yearly top 25 but have either worsened their reputations or been forgotten. Around May 2015, he left The Dissolve and went freelance, even restarting ''My World of Flops'' in June 2015.

Nathan Rabin is a film critic based out of Chicago and former head writer for The A.V. Club, the pop-culture sister site of ''Website/TheOnion''. Rabin famously [[TropeNamers coined the term]] ManicPixieDreamGirl in his [[http://www.avclub.com/articles/the-bataan-death-march-of-whimsy-case-file-1-eliza,15577/ review]] of ''Film/{{Elizabethtown}}''.

Rabin was one of six longstanding A.V. Club writers (including editor in chief Keith Phipps and film editor Scott Tobias) to leave the site between late 2012 and Spring 2013, for Pitchfork Media's soon-to-be-launched film website ''The Dissolve''.

* ''Film/AnAmericanCarol''

Rabin's main contribution to the site, beyond criticism, is his long-running [[http://www.avclub.com/features/my-year-of-flops/ My Year of Flops]] feature, which he describes as "a leisurely stroll of cinema's biggest commercial and critical disasters, with an eye towards singling out unfairly maligned winners (like, say, ''Film/JoeVersusTheVolcano'' or ''Film/{{Ishtar}}'') and great scenes in otherwise middling movies." After 199 installments, My Year of Flops ended and was repurposed as [[http://www.avclub.com/features/my-world-of-flops/ My World of Flops]], allowing Rabin to delve into notable failures in other non-film media (though he still did films as well), thereby offering him a wider range of subject matter to pontificate upon. The feature ended after 36 installments due to his departure from the A.V. Club.
