History Funny / JoueurDuGrenier

* Papy Grenier often opens the video by being passive-agressive to his grandchildren (he even opens an episode by saying he'll tell them "the story where I tried to convince [[CrossesTheLineTwice your mother to have an abortion]]") and by describing a CrapsackWorld where Creator/ElectronicArts became a subsidiary company of the drug cartel and where the kid-friendly company Creator/{{Nintendo}} makes surface-to-air missiles to shoot down airliners (even [[TheCynic Grenier]] admits he's been taken by surprise by the last one).

** Apparently, in the future, the kid-friendly company Creator/{{Nintendo}} will make surface-to-air missiles to shoot down airliners. Even Grenier admits he's been taken by surprise.

*** Fred tries to get a majestic DramaticLandfallShot with his helicopter only to plunge it underwater.

-->'''Reporter:''' Everyone died. I literally have my feet at the center of the crater.\\

-->'''Hillbilly:''' How do we know you didn't dig the hole yourself?\\

'''Hillbilly:''' So what? I'm losing my hair too! It might be your hat.\\

-->'''Hillbilly:''' How do we know you didn't dig the hole yourself?

** At the end of the video, Fred shows an InMemoriam montage of characters from the video games who disappeared from the movies with no logical reason or any explaination. The last of those disappearance is "The Consistency".

** More of an inside joke − when his first crappy film gets one good review, Fred is startled: "Damn, Durendal saw my film!"[[note]]Durendal is a French Internet reviewer who's infamous for often [[EightPointEight going against public consensus]] in his reviews.[[/note]]

** Grenier's DisproportionateRetribution on Butch for eating his cake where he let his mom die, decapitated him, beat the head with a baseball bat and then making the head kiss her mom's corpse.

** Remember when he got drunk with power as the mayor of VideoGame/SimCity? Well, the same happens here. He forces his employees to take insulting names, he overloads the fries with salt and then sells them for a absurdly high price, he pops out everyone's balloons to force them to buy new ones, he designs life-threatening attractions and then fires the maintenance employees... By the time he's done with it, the entire park is in flames [[UpToEleven and the United Nations have to intervene.]]

** UpToEleven when one of his rockets falls on the laboratory and the subsequent explosion completely ''destroys'' it.

->'''Hillbilly:''' How do we know you didn't dig the hole yourself?

** While explaining the backstory to the game, the video shows scenes from the other games... as well as from the intro cutscene of ''VideoGame/DawnOfWar'' where a Space Marine fights orks (caption: image possibly out of context) and the ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfZelda'' cartoon (caption: no, we totally didn't copy Zelda for the stone fragments idea).

** Jill is now a fascist policewoman, since her introductory scene shows her gunning down the infected while they're still being restrained by uninfected policemen.

-->'''Crowd''': Ooooooooh!

** The ProductPlacement for a web browser has Seb explaining that he can use it to show the last 12 websites Fred visited, and turns the monitor around to how the camera... so Fred does a slo-mo diving save to prevent that.
*** One of the perks is an animated wallpaper (of two CatGirls). When Seb angrily demands if Fred is jerking off or what, Fred just turns his head with a creepy smile.

** While complaining about heavy-handed exposition, Fred demontrates by showing just how unnatural such a scene would play out. Seb just gies a blank "help me" look at the camera.

*** Pointing out the FridgeLogic of a MegaCorp ordering people to stay at home at 3 AM.

-->Customer:''' Oh my god, this woman is choking!\\
'''Cop (shoots her in the head):''' There. She's not choking anymore.\\
-Then there's a woman giving birth offscreen, and the cop rushes off to "help".-

... but they are going to do a brief summary.

Starting with a fanservice shot of Alice mostly naked.
-->Crowd Ooooooooh!
-->(cut to Seb with a NotMeWithTime face)

** A city is destroyed by a nuclear explosion... which has been presented as a hoax masterminded by Jill. Cut to a reporter standing in the ruins talking to a HalfWitHillbilly (wearing, of course, a red baseball cap):

*** "and after a completely stupid action scene where physics gets assfucked without even buying it a drink first"

** At the end of the video, Fred shows an In Memoriam montage of characters from the video games who disappeared from the movies with no logical reason or any explaination. The last of those disappearance is "The Consistency".

-->'''Fred:''' The latter kind of sounds like a backup plan.
** Molyneux got his big start by a stroke of luck, where Commodore[=/=]Amiga mistook his society (Taurus) for then established pogramming firm T'''o'''rus, offering him ten [=PC=] (a huge deal at the time) and a contract to produce a database managing tool.

'''Molyneux:''' Gotto go, bye!

''[aims a shotgun at the screen]''\\

** Fred's cyberenhanced character is WesternAnimation/InspectorGadget.

* ''VideoGame/MenInBlack'':
** The sponsorship is for a ''Manga/SaintSeiya'' video game. Fred is a fan of the licence, so [[SelfInsert he's greenscreened in with other characters.]]
** The narrator starts off the video with:
-->Drugs! Whores! Violence! Whores! No, this isn't a rap clip, it's daily life for billions of French people. But behind this cheerful atmosphere of whores and violence, hides a much more dramatic reality. For several days we followed agents of the Secret Intervention Unit Specialized In Crimes Committed By Extraterrestrials, often called SIUSICCE. But since we're parodying the film, we'll call them the Men In Black.
** The "lab" is supposedly in Hawaii, with the location shots showing typical scenes from Bretagne (a region of France about as far away as you can get from tropical).
** The cartoon apparently starring Dominique Strauss-Kahn (a French politician).
** On the subject of the character's movements:
-->'''Fred:''' And now, I'm going to talk about something annoying.\\
'''Seb (holding a milk carton):''' The supposedly "easy-to-open" nature of milk cartons?\\
'''Fred:''' ... That is a problem, but I'd rather talk about the controls.\\
[...]\\
'''Fred:''' Your character moves like a fucking boat!\\
'''Seb (holding a ship's wheel):''' Yeah, it's really hard!\\
'''Fred (grinning ominously):''' How much did that c-\\
'''Seb (holding receipt):''' 42 euros and 62 cents.\\
[...]\\
'''Fred:''' In the game, the button to lift up your weapon isn't the trigger but the circle button. Which is stupid, but hey, there's people who believe in climate change.\\
[an alarm goes off blasting "WARNING: SARCASM" onscreen]
** Fred complains that the high-tech weapons do less damage than a kick.
-->'''Seb:''' Or your guns do the right damage but your kick does too much.\\
'''Fred:''' Wha?\\
[Seb tears open the milk carton, spurting milk all over himself]
** Fred's method for calming down: imagining a Batman-headed mutant gorilla growling at a police car set to "Brother finger where are you?".
** Part of the game involves beating up invisible aliens whose models have no textures. Cut to David Goodenough:
-->You ever see an alien? You wanna tell me what they look like?

*** [[DisposingOfABody And then says he brought a shovel, quicklime, fake passports, but only has one false mustache.]]

** ''{{Series/Manimal}}'''s main character studies martial arts by studying animal movements. Fred continues the theme by waddling like a penguin, dragging a small child like a gorilla, and imitating a chirping bird. Then does the same chirp against a mugger... who collapses.
** Seb asks if Fred would prefer watching the ''Series/{{CHiPs}}''-''Series/MagnumPI'' (known in France as just ''Magnum'') crossover. Cue a man eating a Magnum ice-cream right after eating potato chips, then stating it tastes awful.

** also in the intro you see a pokemon trainer with a potato yelling: "Potato use puree attack ! Potato use puree attack, god fucking damnit!"

'''Fred (grining ominously):''' How much did that c-\\

* The review ends with the series characters' impressions on [[Recap/AvatarTheLastAirbenderTheEmberIslandPlayers the Ember Island play]].
