* During the review of the [[WebVideo/AngryVideoGameNerd AVGN Movie]], the Nostalgia Critic demands an apology from Mc Creery in C minor. A music sheet plays with some orchestral music. There's just a problem: C minor has three flats. The sheet onscreen has four flats. This, however, could be why the Critic lampshades it: it's not a sincere apology because it's written on a different scale!

* In ''Film/PokemonDetectivePikachu'', the Nostalgia Critic shows a liking towards Ludicolo because of the sound the Pokemon makes. Although the Critic states he never got into Pokemon because he was older than the target audience, his values do coincide with the Pokemon. In reviews for ''Film/Daredevil2003'', ''Film/Morbius2022'', and ''Film/TheLeagueOfExtraordinaryGentlemen'', it's shown that the Critic likes it when he thinks the actors are enjoying their roles and having fun with them by having grandiose performances. In a majority of the Pokedex entries for Ludicolo, there's a lot of emphasis on the Pokemon's lust for life and how it enjoys dancing and music. In simple terms; if Ludicolo hears or sees singing and dancing then it will dance along out of impulse, if the Critic sees an actor/actress having fun in the movie through their performance then he'll enjoy the movie too,

* In his review of Franchise/{{Digimon}} The Movie with WebVideo/JesuOtaku has both him and [[WebVideo/TheAngryJoeShow Angry Joe]] mistaking his JO signal in the sky for a JOE signal. With Joe, it's plausible, but why would JO make the same mistake? Because he knows Critic is dyslexic.

* The Nostalgia Critic wasn't the only character to get his own send-off. In the ''Film/ChildsPlay3'' review, Phelous trapped Casper in the Nostalgia Critic's toilet and he doesn't escape like the end of the first ''[[Film/ChildsPlay Child's Play]]'' review. It looks like Doug retired this character along with the Nostalgia Critic.

** Confirmed when you watch the WebVideo/DemoReel ''{{Transformers}}'' episode. In that, Donnie wanted to pander to the Creator/MichaelBay crowd and tried to get Tacoma and Rebecca to join him. But they stood their ground, having obviously suffered racism and sexism and not wanting to be stereotypes, and he apologized for his ignorance. In ''Film/PearlHarbor'' however, Bay is treated as an innocent and Dawg and Tina ''are'' the stereotypes.

* The "periods are vile and unnatural" joke in ''Full House'' makes perfect sense when you remember he's canonically trans and would ''hate'' periods, and was raised in an abusively religious family.

According to Wiki/TheOtherWiki, "ECT is most often recommended for use as a treatment for [[HeroicBSOD severe depression]] that has not responded to other treatment, and is also used in the treatment of [[MoodSwinger mania]] and [[EmptyShell catatonia]]", all of which he's shown signs of.

* Crossing over with AdultFear, he had a gun as a child. Yes he only shot his ''Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles'' doll because he was scared of it, but any worthwhile parent would be having a fit.

* In his Top 11 ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries'' episodes, The Critic tries to imitate many different Batman actors' voices. Though for George Clooney he just says in a normal voice "Hi, I'm George Clooney" one would initially assume he's just not worth imitating. But the fact is that BatmanAndRobin is so hated by the fanbase most fans prefer to think it never happened, so in turn, as far as the fans are concerned George Clooney was never Batman.

** The fact she allows the Deadpool cosplayer in the ''Film/GreenLantern'' review to touch her breasts even though she doesn't want him to because "it's his choice to do it if he wants" amplifies her twisted view of consent further. Even if she only let him do it because she knew Devil Boner would beat his ass, it's still a concerning way to bait attention.

* In the ''Son of the Mask'' review, Satan is told what shows his daughter had been watching; out of all the shows, he's most upset when he hears WesternAnimation/ThomasTheTankEngine. Who created Thomas? ''Reverend'' Wilbert Awdry.
