History DethroningMoment / WebOriginal

* JHD: [[WebVideo/{{Animerica}} Animerica's]] "Top 25 Anime No One Should Ever Watch" was a hot mess. The "I'm right and you're wrong" attitude was prevalent throughout the video, but nowhere more so than his [[Anime/CodeGeass Code Geass R2]] segment. Will Ryan brings up how the season was upvoted higher than [[Anime/CowboyBebop Cowboy Bebop]] and [[Anime/SpiritedAway Spirited Away]] on Anime News Network, and then has the gall to ask the voters if they've lost their minds. Will. Buddy. It's okay if you hate R2, you're entitled to your opinion, but stop acting like it's an objectively bad show. What you did here is pass off your opinion on the show as if it was objective fact, and that anybody who disagrees with that "fact" (massive quotes there) is objectively wrong. This act was far from the only problem with the list, but it was the one that annoyed me the most.

* emilethetemplar: Crowbcat video comparing both versions of ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil4'' was already somewhat questionnable, like, I can understand liking the original better but calling the remake souless seemed like a bit of a strech. That being said I would have been willing to agree to disagree nonetheless... If he didn't do a complete 360 one day later by changing the title and description of the video, claiming now that the remake is a masterpiece following the criticism he received. For someone who made multiples videos exposing people for being disingenuous, this is probably the biggest DMOS I can imagine and don't tell me he was being sarcastic because I don't believe it for a hot second.

* multibrawlr: Maximilian "Max" Christiansen has created some of my favorite Internet shows: LetsPlay/YoVideogames, WebVideo/AssistMe, and LetsPlay/TheOnlineWarrior. His entertaining personality -- along with his hilarious tutorials -- have brought me into the fighting game community (even though I'm not a good player by any means). However, his Dethroning Moment of Suck for me has to do with his involvement with a certain crowdfunded fighting game: ''Beast's Fury''. The game was essentially a ''VideoGame/{{Skullgirls}}'' wannabe which eventually [[{{Vaporware}} got cancelled]] following years of inexperience, online acrimony, and poor budgeting [[note]]and you can read its entry in [[TroubledProduction/VideoGames the video games Troubled Production page]] for the whole story[[/note]]. Max was offered to have his dog Benny included in the game as a guest character, which was clearly an act of desperation from the developers to entice more people into donating money. However, Max gave them the benefit of the doubt and produced [[https://youtu.be/7hNkQman64o two]] [[https://youtu.be/4IvOCNjbsfw videos]] promoting the game, but little did he know of the developer's true incompetence. Where I get upset is that Max didn't do a "follow-up" video addressing the game's failure and has since gone quiet on the subject altogether. I expected him to apologize to his fans and everyone else who donated to the project after watching his videos promoting it, and who were now out of money and unlikely of getting any refunds. I could see that he's perhaps distancing himself from this out of spite of his reputation, but I do believe that he owes some apology to the people that he convinced to fund what eventually became a bad project. And I'm still waiting...

* {{Tropers/HaileySawyer101}} This Dethroning Moment of Suck comes from [[http://www.dorkly.com/tag/pokemon-sun-playthrough JHall's Pokemon Sun Playthrough comic series]]. Since this series doesn't have its own section, I figured it would be appropriate to post this in the "OTHER" folder. Get up and grab a snack because I have quite a bit to say. Now I'll be honest. I actually do like this series and I look forward to reading new episodes every Thursday. It addresses various issues with Sun and Moon, such as the long wait to get your starter at the beginning of the game due to excessive dialogue as seen in episodes [[http://www.dorkly.com/post/81739/pokemon-sun-playthrough-episode-3 three]],[[http://www.dorkly.com/post/81817/pokemon-sun-playthrough-episode-4 four]], and [[http://www.dorkly.com/post/81918/pokemon-sun-playthrough-episode-5 five]], and at times, pokes fun at them, such as in [[http://www.dorkly.com/post/83556/pokemon-sun-playthrough-episode-31-32 episode 32]]. I also like some of Jhall's Pokemon, with my favorite being Mr. Snuggles, especially when he evolves into a talking Incinaroar that's a calm intelligent 'mon who can turn into a raging wrestler at a moment's notice. Hell, at times, it can even get a little emotional, as seen in [[http://www.dorkly.com/post/86029/pokemon-sun-playthrough-episode-77 episode 77]]. Despite my love for the series, I'll admit that at times it can fall flat on its face in big and small ways. I think one of the most prominent examples of this for me is in[[http://www.dorkly.com/post/86279/pokemon-sun-playthrough-episode-83-84 episode 83]]. So in this episode, Jhall is visiting the Vast Poni Canyon and his Charjabug named Chompers is evolving because of the magnetic field in the area. When it evolves into Vikavolt, it's revealed by the Rotom Dex that Chompers' physical defense lowers when it evolves and Jhall says, "Right. Of course. Did God make this region as a prank or something?" Now what's wrong with this episode you may ask? Well let's take this one step at a time. So the plot of the episode is just one joke about how Charjabug's defense is lower when it evolves and because of this, its evolved form Vikavolt faints when it gets hit by a tiny rock and when Jhall finds out about the lowered defense thing he gets angry and rants about it for a bit. And that's it. That's all you get from that episode. There is a bit at the beginning of episode 84 where Jhall tells Chompers not to get hit and Chompers gets hit but it still isn't all that much. Now I wouldn't have much of a problem with this but the joke feels rather lackluster, as it doesn't seem fleshed out enough to have any sort of real punch. Now here are some interesting facts about Charjabug and Vikavolt. While it's true that Vikavolt's physical defense is lower than Charjabug's, it isn't anything to be too worried about. According to Bulbapedia, [[https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Charjabug_(Pok%C3%A9mon)#Base_stats Charjabug's physical defense]] is 95 while [[https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Vikavolt_(Pok%C3%A9mon)#Base_stats Vikavolt's]] is only 90. So right here we're only looking at a five point difference, which really isn't all that drastic if you ask me. Also, at level 49, Charjabug is able to learn [[https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Charjabug_(Pok%C3%A9mon)#By_leveling_up Iron Defense]], which boosts physical defense by two whole stages, making the whole "lowered physical defense upon evolution" thing a non-issue. So why I'm I bringing up this information? Well because I feel like Jhall could've used some of it to make the Charjabug/Vikavolt joke work better. In the series, Jhall's Charjabug is capable of being a beast in battle, as seen in [[http://www.dorkly.com/post/84858/pokemon-sun-playthrough-episode-47 episode 47]]. For the Pokemon who require being in an area with a magnetic field, such as Vast Poni Canyon, to evolve like Charjabug for example, they need to level up in that area first to trigger the evolution. So here's what I had in mind. At the beginning of the episode, we see a battle where Chompers uses Acrobatics or one of its other moves like Spark or Crunch to take out a wild or trainer owned Pokemon in one hit. Now while the levels of Jhall's Pokemon aren't mentioned in most of the series, I'll assume that Chompers is at level 48 due to the fact that Jhall is at Vast Poni Canyon, which you visit towards the end of Sun and Moon before you face the Elite Four. After Chompers wins, Jhall's Rotom Dex informs him that Chompers grew to level 49 and that it can learn Iron Defense, which boosts physical defense by two whole stages. The Rotom Dex asks Jhall if he'd like to replace one of Chomper's moves to allow it to learn Iron Defense. Jhall then arrogantly rejects the offer. The Rotom Dex says, "Are you sure? Its physical defense is going to be lowered by five points when it evolves. It also keeps its weakness to Rock type moves as well." Once again, Jhall rejects the offer and says that Chompers is perfect the way he is. When Chompers evolves, Jhall is very excited to the point where he's bouncing off of the walls of the panel or panels and says, "Yeah! No one can beat him now!" Then, Chompers is suddenly hit by a rock and gets taken down easily. Then, Jhall gets angry and says, "Did God make this region as a prank or something?" to which the Rotom Dex calmly replies, "No. You're just an idiot." Jhall's anger then intensifies to the point where he tries to hurt the Rotom Dex. Also, it could just be me but I feel like Jhall only looked at the base stats for Charjabug and Vikavolt and just made the episode without doing any additional research. As a result, the joke also feels rather rushed and lazy. It's a shame too because I know this series is capable of being really damn funny and putting more time and effort into its jokes.

[[folder:[=PMRants=]]]
* Bengson26: I'm stepping into unknown territory for this. Ranter [=undertakerfreak1127=] is a little cranky recently. Fellow ranter [=PMRants=] (aka Phil Mason) has posted a video criticising ProfessionalWrestling. [=UTF=], being a huge-ass wrestling fan, responded back at Phil: "Eh. Typical "wrestling sucks" video. You watch maybe two minutes of pro wrestling a week, if that, and you make the determination that the theatrics are poor. Just because some guys are worse on the mic than others doesn't mean the theatrics suck as a whole." Maybe it's just me, but this sounds less like a respectable ranter and more of a whiny wrestling fanboy. What's worse (from what I can tell), he removed some replies calling out for this. To quote myself replying to him: "Typical [=UTF=]. You know, for a person with a channel that has a large amount of bashing of wrestling (the irony), video games, music and society as a whole, he can't take what he dishes out."
** [=TomPhanto=]: For me, it's a small part of his Worst People of 2014 video where he talks about some really horrible people and why he feels they belong on the list. He then gets to Justin Bieber and instead of talking about him, it's just an eight second clip where he sings "Baby" as a joke and looks at the camera in surprise. He doesn't even explain why he thinks he should be on the list. My issue is that I don't consider [=UTF=] to be someone who makes overused jokes, but it just disappoints anyone hoping to see why he felt Bieber was a bad influence for the year. I never liked Justin Bieber, but to me, it just felt like an excuse to poke fun at him for a cheap laugh, which at this point is [[SeinfeldIsUnfunny so overdone it's unfunny.]] I just consider it a time waster and I know [=UTF=] is better than that.

* {{Tropers/Pgj1997}}: While I think Creator/EmperorLemon's [[https://youtu.be/qFGqhEVr7lk Meme Theory on Behind the Meme]] was well-constructed, one thing that gets to me is how he views "normies". Basically, [[ItsPopularNowItSucks if you like anything from mainstream media, you're a normie, and shouldn't be taken seriously]]. This vague definition is what bothers me. Not only is this downright childish to base a person off of what they like and don't like, but it just comes off as condescending. Might I remind everyone, this guy is well known for making WebAnimation/{{YouTube Poop}}s of Creator/{{Pixar}} movies, and even created an [[WebVideo/TheFryingNemoSaga entire tetralogy]] based on ''WesternAnimation/FindingNemo'', which is also mainstream media. I've seen many people on the internet who act like this, but this ranks near the top. Flat out saying "You like X, and it's mainstream, therefore, you're a normie, and I hate you" just makes him come off as a giant asshole who thinks you can label people based on their interests. News flash, you can't.

* Troper/Pgj1997: I don't watch [[Creator/FrederatorStudios ChannelFrederator]]'s 107 Facts series. For one, the videos are way too long for me to get through in one sitting, and it's a given that they cheaply pad out the lists by giving each individual fact it's own entry, as opposed to grouping facts together like any other list would do, on a regular basis. Though, out of curiosity, I watched the episode on WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug, being a fan of the show. Simply put, this video doesn't give a good first impression. To start off, the person they picked for this list has a very dull, clearly uninterested voice. Not only does this not do a good job of keeping the viewer engaged, which you need for a video that's almost half an hour long, but there's plenty of other Frederator Studios members that could have done the job better, including people that did previous lists in the series. To pour salt on the wound, the voice is accompanied by bad audio quality, significantly lowering the video's presentation. Did I mention this channel is a [=YouTube=] partner? The list itself isn't any better though. Most of the list consists of nothing but facts that most of the fans already know about at this point, or bottom-of-the-barrel entries like {{Shout Out}}s and animation errors, which are petty at best. A few stand out entries on the list are as follows. Fact number 9 is... a list of anime that Creator/ToeiAnimation worked on previously. Okay, ignoring the fact that Toei has a small part in the production of this show, how is this relevant to the topic at hand? The only show they list that's even remotely similar to Miraculous Ladybug is Anime/SailorMoon, as if that wasn't obvious enough. Just because a company worked on more than one show doesn't mean it warrants a spot on the list, especially a big name company like Toei. Fact number 12 is the fact that the show uses {{Transformation Sequence}}s. Which is a given, considering [[MagicalGirl the show's genre]]. Also, they call them "lengthy", even though they only last about 15 seconds in the actual show. Fact number 50 is, and I quote "In the Toei PV, the Louve gets blown up, and the Arch De Triomph is cut in half by a pillar of light. I mean, what's a superhero hero story without a city being completely demolished?" How is this a fact that warrants its own entry? This isn't interesting in the slightest, and people who already watched the PV already know this. And fact number 107 is... the fact that season 2 and 3 are confirmed. Really anticlimactic, isn't it? You can tell they were really scrapped for ideas, and just threw this together anyway. All of this could've easily been avoided if they just waited for more episodes to come out, thus creating more material to work with, instead of piggybacking off the show's surprise success just for a quick cash grab.

* Tropers/MisterToodleoo: I have a recurring DMOS from the "portrayed by [=SpongeBob=]" meme. A show that is hated on the Internet will be "portrayed" by people reacting in horror or something like that. That, to me, is like typing a YMMV trope on a show's main page, and it would be confusing to people who don't know about these hatebases.

* {{Tropers/heartauthor}}: I like watching song countdowns by music reviewers, and in the past, that would sometimes include Mr. 96's lists. Sure, there were some opinions of his I didn't agree with, but that's par for the course with any music reviewer's videos. And then I saw his "Top 10 Worst Hit Songs of 2004" list, and...[[ThisIsGonnaSuck oh, boy.]] Specifically, it was his entry for number 3 on his list: "One Thing" by Finger Eleven. He only briefly talks about the song itself, before getting to the real reason he put it on the list: it's the song that {{Wrestling/WWE}} used in their tribute for {{Wrestling/Chris Benoit}}. {{Wrestling/Chris Benoit}}, of course, is now better known for having [[OvershadowedByControversy died in a murder-suicide]] that also resulted in the death of [[PaterFamilicide his wife and young son]]. Okay, fair enough; that association might make some people uncomfortable, and Mr. 96 even admits that {{Wrestling/WWE}} didn't initially know what happened at the time they made the tribute. But right after he says that, he angrily retorts "Then why are there still comments that say "R.I.P. Chris Benoit" on the song's {{Website/YouTube}} video?!" Are...are you serious? Well, how about that not only was Benoit seemingly [[DespairEventHorizon unable to deal]] with the loss of [[Wrestling/EddieGuerrero his best friend]], but autopsies revealed that Benoit's brain was comparable to that of an 80-year-old with Alzheimer's due to the [[BodyHorror constant head injuries]] he sustained throughout his career; facts that most wrestling fans have knowledge of? And furthermore, no matter what medium, there will always be a chance that someone you admire for their accomplishments turns out to be a [[BitchInSheepsClothing terrible human being]]; however, it's still possible to be inspired by them while also acknowleding their negative traits. The way Mr. 96 handled this segment made it seem like he did absolutely no research about the incident beyond the most basic details, which comes off as incredibly unprofessional. Not only is Mr. 96 not being fair to those people who did comment "R.I.P. Chris Benoit" (but could still presumbably [[FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse not condone what he actually did]]), but by making it solely about this incident, he's not being fair to Finger Eleven, who simply had the unfortunate luck of their song becoming associated with a very tragic situation for everyone involed.

* Moments only, no "just everything he said", "the entire episode", or "this entire work," entries.

* [=InTheGallbladder=]: WebVideo/BrowsHeldHigh gave a great review of ''Film/VaseDeNoces'', but there's one part I don't like about it: The closing cameo bit. It felt like redundant attempt to advertise the two cameos (particularly when the host name-drops the urls to both their websites in the dialogue), didn't contribute anything to the review proper, and beyond that, it's just another TakeThat to the concept of "reviewer dibs," on which several members of site had already made their views clear.

* SenorCornholio: I have recently warmed up to Racist Mario due to the voice clips being used in some of [[WebAnimation/Supermarioglitchy4sSuperMario64Bloopers SMG4's videos]] (such as [[https://youtu.be/Wjb0FgQqpZA this one]]), but that doesn't change the fact that overall, this video is heavily flawed in more ways than one. I could go on about the unfunny jokes, the nonsensical plot, etc, but what I think makes the whole thing fall apart: the premise. Mario goes insane and starts killing everyone because of all the third-party characters in the current race. Why does this not work? Well firstly, because there has never been a third-party character in a main Mario Kart title. The DLC characters for Mario Kart 8 were all from other Nintendo franchises, and therefore first-party. Secondly, the characters themselves; [[VideoGame/SegaSuperstars Sonic may have been playable in several Sega-themed sports and racing titles]], but the only time he crossed over with Nintendo itself was in VideoGame/SuperSmashBros, which would have actually been a better setting due to [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog their]] [[VideoGame/MetalGear own]] [[Franchise/MegaMan selection]] [[VideoGame/PacMan of]] [[Franchise/StreetFighter third]]-[[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII party]] [[{{VideoGame/Bayonetta}} characters]]. And even then, Knuckles wasn't even playable so that's out. It's like some of these franchises were listed all because of their racing titles, with [[Franchise/StarWars Anakin]] and [[VideoGame/CrashBandicoot Crash's head]] also being standout examples. Thirdly, speaking of Sony, was there an alternate universe I'm not aware of where Sony and Nintendo crossed over and [[VideoGame/LittleBigPlanet Sackboy]] and [[VideoGame/GodOfWar Kratos]] were put into karts? I'll admit that Kratos driving a tiny kart is a funny sight, but what's the point? Ironically, there's one crossover that I doubt Flashgitz even knows he got right, and that's Pac-Man's head on a spear, since he was playable in the Arcade GP games developed by Namco-Bandai. Other than that, the rest of the references are shallow at best and make absolutely no sense at worst. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go watch [[https://youtu.be/ynKRJt4CDMY the version where all the violence is replaced with The Nutshack]]. It's somehow way better.

* mkmlp: I used to enjoy Lilly's content, and even when I did not agree with her view on a given work I could at least respect her. But as her jabs at people and works she didn't like became more mean spirited and her attitude became more bitter, I found harder harder to like her content. This came to a head for me in her "In A Minute" video on {{Disney}}'s ''WesternAnimation/{{Hercules}}'', where completely out of the blue, Lily's asked be a friend sitting with her on this particular video, something along the line of "Which proto fascist would win in a fight, [[Franchise/DragonBall Goku]] or Hercules". To which Lilly replies "Hercules, Goku's a little bitch." This exchanged served no purpose, but to piss off Dragon Ball fans for no real reason. It didn't even have anything to do with the rest of the video.

* JetpackPercy: I saw a few reviews from this text-based web reviewer on Website/DeviantART, called Media Man, and one part was just so cruel, and so infuriating, I vowed not to watch him? What was it? Well, it was his "Top 10 Worst Simpsons Episode List", specifically, his entry for "Boys of Bummer". Now, it wasn't a DMOS because he bashed an episode, a character, or the series as a whole. It was the entry where he says that Bart deserved the abuse, and "it makes this episode worth watching," claiming because that Bart was an ass in other episodes, he deserved to be [[SarcasmMode rightfully]] bullied in this episode. As indicated by the [[DethroningMoment/TheSimpsons DMOS page]] for ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'', Bart was constantly bullied by the entire town, including encouragement to commit suicide near the end. All he did wrong in the episode was miss a fly ball. He didn't deserved to be bullied, no matter what Media Man says. He also says that the town [[Heartwarming/TheSimpsons helping Bart to regain his confidence,]] and not lock the entire city of Springfield into irredeemable territory, was selfish, mean-spirited and cruel to the other team (What, [[SarcasmMode are they going to commit suicide for making a child you don't like feel better]]), and that Marge was in the wrong for chewing out the town. Well, if he thinks that 10-year-olds he doesn't like should be [[SarcasmMode "rightfully"]] tortured to the point of committing suicide for screwing up only once, then consider me out for watching him in the foreseen future.

* {{@/Robbie}}: ''Podcast/AnimeWorldOrder'', Episode 85. During Daryl's review of ''Manga/ViolenceJack'', Daryl mentions the explicit, grotesque rape sequences in the Evil Town OVA, and promptly suggests that these scenes are tailored to the Japanese libido. "Japanese men can't get it up unless you've got like a loaded pistol in the girl's mouth being like 'shut the fuck up and enjoy this bitch' as they plead for their life, and blood gushes forth from their crotch because it's more {{Moe}} when you get to bust the hymen..." He goes on to suggest that things like this is why Japanese women are supposedly more interested in foreigners than native Japanese. Even as a sarcastic joke, it is still horribly racist to paint the Japanese as a nation of rapists and freaks because of anime like ''ViolenceJack'', and it stains the reputation of the most prominent podcast on the subject of Japanese animation. Reviewing anime in a humorous fashion certainly works, but mocking Japanese culture because you don't like certain nasty anime slams the not funny button so hard it cracks in half.

* [=InTheGallbladder=]: I gave up on The Hardcore Kid completely moments into his review of ''WesternAnimation/WhereTheDeadGoToDie''. He made too many factual errors in too short a span of time. He says the whole thing was mocapped with a Kinect, even though that only applies to "The Masks That The Monsters Wear," the final short in the anthology. He brings up the director's work as a speedcore musician as an example of his film work, even though the two aren't directly related. Then finally, he decries the quality of the beats and lyrics in the OST, citing Music/{{Passenger Of Shit}}'s song "Wanking Shit For Life" as an example. The song is not part of the soundtrack, nor is any other speedcore song. Furthermore, Passenger Of Shit never contributed any music to the anthology--all he did was send the director voice recordings. Also, the OST is entirely instrumental.[[note]]There is a song with lyrics in the official score, but it never made it into any of the shorts.[[/note]] Even if The Hardcore Kid didn't [[EpicFail somehow]] draw the conclusion that Passenger Of Shit helped score the film just because his name was in the credits, the point stands that the song isn't credited to him, implying that he mistook Passenger Of Shit's work with the director's, even though all they have in common is a genre. This was severely unprofessional at best. At worst, it's a solid argument against his career as an online reviewer.

* Scsigs: Oof, am I probably gonna get heat for this entry if his stans find out about this entry here. Anyways, since this is the section for one-offs & actual people that make content online, my choice is Edwins Generation/Edwin Costa. This dude is a fucking trainwreck of a human being, from the fact that he lucked into being a commentary channel when he used his old roommate Cyr and Cyr's ex Dasha to exploit terrible things they've done (both deserving of backlash and not) to gain clout and bring hate to them, he defended a proven sexual predator by resurrecting a 5-year-old drama that'd been long since buried, and he's proven himself very [[CantTakeCriticism incapable of taking any form of legit criticism]], egotistical, HolierThanThou, IgnorantOfTheirOwnIgnorance, and extremely hypocritical ever since he started covering Onision, which is what I'm going to talk about. In 2019, he started reacting to Onision's videos when he became a hot-button topic to talk about. Then, he befriended most of his victims and made it seem like he was actually affected by Creator/{{Shiloh}} like one of his now-friends was to put him on the same level as him by dragging Shiloh down like he did Cyr and Dasha. I'm in no way defending what Shiloh did at that time, but he clearly used it for clout gain when he could. Fast forward to early 2021 and he's suddenly on the Discovery+ Onision documentary ''Onision: In Real Life''. This is where it gets hysterical. So, he didn't tell ''anyone'' he was gonna be in it, not the victims (whom he's supposedly friends with), or his other commentary friends. In fact, he openly criticized it being made before and after he filmed his parts for it online. However, when screenshots leaked early of the first episode and showed he was in it, he immediately got questioned by everyone who said it was a ''very'' hypocritical move. He quickly claimed he "vetted the producers thoroughly" beforehand and told his commentary friends that he agreed to do it because he had the producers promise him he could "get a shot in at Chris Hansen." The documentary aired and his "shot" was a milktoast take about how Chris Hansen exploited the victims when he interviewed them for financial gain (which, Hansen's an investigative journalist and he's been doing that job for years because he got paid through it. How else is he going to make money?). Not only that, but he appeared in all of 6-7 minutes of the doc's first 3 episodes and the majority of his screentime was made up of explaining how Onision might've became popular so quickly over a decade ago on [=YouTube=], how [=YouTube's=] monetization program works, and the "shot," which Hansen then used as a way to do a TakeThat back at the commentary people who criticize him, as Edwin and his friends do, justifiably or not. The best part is that a stan of someone Edwin's repeatedly criticized in the past in some of his videos hacked into his Twitter account and screen recorded his [=DMs=] with a bunch of people. One set of which with Steven Asarch, one of the main producers and presenters of the docu series, when leaked revealed that he didn't vet him ''nearly'' as thoroughly as he said he did, nor did he actually get a promise to "Take a shot" at Hansen. He was genuinely lying and, when called out on it, couldn't take the backlash and deactivated his Twitter and took a break from the internet to try to let the backlash die down. So, tl;dr, I believe the Onision docu series is his dethroning moment, as he's shown to be a hypocrite because he neither likes Chris Hansen, nor did he avow the doc being made beforehand, a sellout because he clearly did it for clout, as he admitted he didn't get paid money to be in it and he was clearly expecting to be paid in exposure instead, and the fact that there's proof that he's willing to say what he thinks he needs to to make himself look like a victim in every place he can, as he claimed the producers purposely manipulated his footage to omit things, or cast things in different lights in the finished product and ''he'' was manipulated into being in the doc and said the things he said, he's clearly not the person he wants everyone to think he is and the backlash he's getting is well deserved.

* Tropers/MelancholyUtopia: I'm indifferent towards ''WebVideo/TheWarpZone'' for the most part: they have some semi-funny sketches (as most of them, in my opinion, have jokes that are too generic, unoriginal or just extremely dated as fans already made the same jokes ages ago) in their "If X had Y" type videos, and I like the accurate voice acting of the game characters. That said, one time made me sigh in disappointment, and that was in their "IF POKÉMON HAD FACEBOOK" video. In one of the sketches, in response to Giovanni arguing intelligent design over evolution, Misty replies with "Nobody intelligently designed ''these'' guys." and showed pictures of Garbodor, Rotom and Klefki. Then Klefki writes a post and says "I'm Keys!!" Haa-haa. Two of those made me cringe as they are just reiterating the same boring, old observation that "these pokémon are just objects and it's ridiculous!!!" Never mind the fact that Garbodor is supposed to be an embodiment representative of the pollution/trash problem in New York City, a place the Unova region is based on. An even worse offender in this case is Klefki, however, as if you bothered to do even a modicum of research is based on the pagan belief that fairies are to blame for small objects, such as keys, going missing, hence why it's a fairy-type, and which I personally considered kind of a crafty way to reinforce the unique "steel/fairy" type combo. Also, in Japan, there's an old mythos that carrying a specific iron charm will ward off those types mischievous creatures, again alluding fairy and steel together. Furthermore its name is a take on the French word clef, which means key. Yet the guys who wrote these sketches have the gall to say they weren't "intelligently designed". Look, it's perfectly okay if you don't like their designs, but it's plain dishonest and objectively wrong to say no thought was put behind their aesthetic. Another thing, has there ever been some kind of invisible rule in some official Pokémon rulebook that says Pokémon can't be based on objects? Not that I can recall, since the Magnemite, Voltorb and Grimer evolution lines (from Gen I) exist.

* Troper/MelancholyUtopia: I consider Schaffrillas a decent enough reviewer, even if his reviews are hit or miss to me, though still when I intensely disagree (He considers the second game in the ''VideoGame/{{Pikmin}}'' trilogy to be the worst one, while I think it's the best one) I respect him enough to not think ill of him regardless of his different takes. So, ironically, my DMoS is in one of his best reviews; "Why ''WesternAnimation/{{Ratatouille}}'' is Pixar's Magnum Opus", where he makes a jab at ''WesternAnimation/FindingDory'' by exclaiming "What? The movie was about finding Dory's parents? THEN WHY WAS IT CALLED FINDING DORY?!" Why, I can gladly explain that to you, Schaffy. 1) In the first half of the film Marlin and Nemo were actually trying to find her, aka locate her whereabouts. 2) I thought it was quite obvious that the title was not meant to be taken too literally in this instance, since she's trying to find her home, her parents, in other words: herself. I'm not madly in love with the film or anything but even I understood that was a possible interpretation of the title. Given how analytical Shaffrillas tends to be about even the smallest of details in the movies he reviews (including this very video!), I just find it extremely jarring that he didn't even consider that this might have been an intentional choice by the directors to be subtle. Even if you don't like a film, you should be fair to it and not just dump a load of hate on it for the sake of being spiteful.

* Tropers/SoaringEagle: I don't know who TheClooch is, but after watching his video "VideoGame/{{Overwatch}}: How to Kill a Video Game", I don't think I want to know more. Regardless of your opinion on the current state of Blizzard's latest, the bad balancing, and whether or not it deserves a sequel, to call the game "dead" is like calling Franchise/StarWars "dead"; neither is true, no matter how much the fandom complains about either. As far as I'm concerned, a game is only dead when there are less than 1,000 players, or the servers shut down. Oh! But the big reason why the video makes it on this page, in my opinion, is one line towards the end of the video, regarding when Overwatch "died": "It was dead on arrival." You heard it here, friends: a game that has almost 50 million players worldwide, made over $500 million in its first year alone, and won numerous awards since launch, was "dead on arrival". I've seen numerous users around the Internet trying to convince people that Overwatch is the worst game ever made, but this video has to be the worst case.

** ElSquibbonator: I was a loyal follower of Anita's videos for years, and to be honest I still am. But her review of ''Mad Max: Fury Road'' just rubbed me the wrong way. And no, I'm not saying this simply because I like the movie. The gist of it, for those unfamiliar with her take on it, is that she disapproves of the movie because it invokes male-centric standards of what makes a "strong" character. And that's fair. . . except that she then goes on to claim that this means ''Fury Road'' and movies like it, however well-meaning they may be, are not and can never be truly feminist. In other words, she insists that to be truly feminist, a work must [[MenUseViolenceWomenUseCommunication only use "feminine" means of resolving conflicts]]. This comes off as rather hypocritical given Sarkeesian's well-known belief that female characters shouldn't be pigeonholed into [[TheChick stereotypically]] [[TheHeart female]] [[TheEmpath roles]], and it also has more than a hint of NoTrueScotsman about it regarding what "true feminism" is. Additionally Sarkeesian has praised certain female action hero characters in the past (namely Sarah Conner, Ellen Ripley, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer), so the fact that she took such issue with ''Fury Road'' specifically makes me feel like she was just being contrarian on purpose.

* [=InTheGallbladder=]: WebVideo/BrowsHeldHigh gave a great review of ''Film/VaseDeNoces'', but there's one part I don't like about it: The closing cameo bit. It felt like an attempt to advertise the two cameos (particularly when the host name-drops the urls to both their websites in the dialogue), didn't contribute anything to the review proper, and beyond that, it's just another TakeThat to the concept of "reviewer dibs," on which several members of site had already made their views clear.

* [=InTheGallbladder=]: I gave up on The Hardcore Kid completely moments into his review of ''WesternAnimation/WhereTheDeadGoToDie''. He made too many factual errors in too short a span of time. He says the whole thing was mocapped with a Kinect, even though that only applies to ''The Masks That The Monsters Wear,'' the final short in the anthology. He brings up the director's work as a speedcore musician as an example of his film work, even though the two aren't directly related. Then finally, he decries the quality of the beats and lyrics in the OST, citing Music/{{Passenger Of Shit}}'s song "Wanking Shit For Life" as an example. The song is not part of the soundtrack, nor is any other speedcore song. Furthermore, Passenger Of Shit never contributed any music to the anthology--all he did was send the director voice recordings. Also, the OST is entirely instrumental.[[note]]There is a song with lyrics in the official score, but it never made it into any of the shorts.[[/note]] Even if The Hardcore Kid didn't [[EpicFail somehow]] draw the conclusion that Passenger Of Shit helped score the film just because his name was in the credits, the point stands that the song isn't credited to him, implying that he mistook Passenger Of Shit's work with the director's, even though all they have in common is a genre. This was severely unprofessional at best. At worst, it's a solid argument against his career as an online reviewer.

** [=InTheGallbladder=]: I gave up around "Hillary Clinton vs. Donald Trump." Nothing to do with my personal views--the breaking point came with the "surprise" return of Abraham Lincoln Riding A Bald Eagle, a twist so obvious I'm not even bothering to spoiler it. There's just no way in hell for three white rappers to set up a rhyme with "riggers" [[LikeYouWouldReallyDoIt that didn't foreshadow a]] CurseCutShort from three [[PainfulRhyme (incredibly clumsy)]] lines ahead. And then Lincoln fumbles it from the very start, rhyming "blah blah blah" with... nothing, unless you count eagle noises. I'd noticed a drop in writing quality in favor of spectacle from the onset of season 5, but nothing else illustrated it quite as well.

* [=InTheGallbladder=]: WebVideo/RealTimeFandub's take on the ''VideoGame/SonicRiders'' series. In particular: The climax of ''Zero Gravity'' doesn't resolve in a cutscene. How could they have addressed this? Have the cast speak over gameplay footage, as in the legendary ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure2'' dub. How did they address this? Five long, self-indulgent minutes of Penny and Marble mutely dicking around in VideoGame/GarrysMod, for them and the rest of the cast to kill time talking over. It's worse in that it isn't a BigLippedAlligatorMoment; they try to make it a plot point in what few minutes are left afterwards. Ryan, the only actor whose lines were consistently good throughout, put it best:

* Tropers/{{dsneybuf}}: WebVideo/SomeJerkWithACamera's ''One Movie Later'' "review" of ''Film/{{Cats}}'' went from "obnoxious" to "unwatchable" when the OverlyLongGag of Tony and his friends screaming in horror at the movie (a gag that begins before Tony even drives to the theater) stretched all the way into the "Spoilers" section. At this point, it became evident that the video would provide nothing substantial at all, just EarRape (a lot of which I fast-forwarded through, in feeble hopes of finding an actual review). It already had a lot going against it beforehand, between ''Cats'' having nothing to do with theme parks, Tony Tweeting his dread for the movie (which only has its own episode because it won a viewers' poll), and me doubting that his persona could fit a discussion of a Broadway musical. Unfortunately, the final result squanders the opportunity to branch out of his comfort zone. The general cheapness of his channel also renders unlikely the possibility that he rushed this out to make time for something grand.

* Tropers/Amber72004: [[https://youtu.be/yfnuu4TtlZI this video about the documentary of South Park]] by Italian Youtuber Apocaloso, The most of the video is fine, but when he said that animation is genre, It's just something that
[[FandomEnragingMisconception makes animation fans angry]]. Animation is a medium, not a genre, Animation predates film and it's one of the most intensely popular mediums as comics, but saying that animation genre is a no-no and the YouTuber should've done some research when he makes his videos.
