History Funny / TheNostalgiaCritic2016Episodes

* [[ThirdIs3D Distracting 3D is featured in "Threequels"]], like ''Film/Jaws3D'', ''Film/FridayThe13thPartIII'', and today's movie. The Critic freaks out, not wanting to do ''[[BaitAndSwitch Friday the 13th Part 3]]''.
-->'''Distracting 3D:''' You're doing ''Spy Kids 3D''!\\

* When one of the characters calls himself Rez, and Juni says [[{{Pun}} "Hi Rez"]], Critic makes him come up to the front of the room so he can be sure he heard it correctly. He sees the joke and banishes the movie to the Corner for [[AddedAlliterativeAppeal Painfully Pushed Puns]] where he sits with one of the 3D brothers.

* The RunningGag where Tamara!Mom films Critic doing random cat or dog-like things for no particular reason. Despite him demanding an explanation as to why he's being forced to do it, she refuses to give him an explanation. It's revealed at the end of the video that she cut the film together to make a clickbait type video where "Nostalgia Critic" (actually just clips of Critic!Dad's mouth sloppily pasted over the actual Critic) would negatively review [[Film/Deadpool2016 Deadpool]]. Critic threatens to report them to Website/YouTube and have their channel pulled, but she responds that they told Fox every one of his videos has Deadpool in them and his channel will be pulled before he can make the report. Critic replies that it's ridiculous since all they would need to do is watch one of his videos to see that he doesn't constantly reference Deadpool in his reviews [[TakeThat at which point a notification appears that says 20th Century Fox has issued a copyright claim for said video.]]

* The opening segment showcases a poker game with Peyton Reed, Jennifer Lee, and Creator/PhilLordAndChrisMiller, all making bets on impossible premises for movies (''WesternAnimation/{{Frozen|2013}}'', ''Film/AntMan'', and ''WesternAnimation/TheLegoMovie''). [[FunnyBackgroundEvent Rob messing around with his poker chips]] is a particular highlight. When Shyamalan pitches the movie, filled to the brim with CallARabbitASmeerp, we get this exchange.

* The first two jokes[[note]]The production company generally specializing in horror movies, and Jem complaining about how her sister documents every bit of her life when the FramingDevice is her recording a 2-hour monologue to a camera[[/note]] are so easy that he lets the movie take the first hit at him instead.

* '''''"I WANNA GO HOME!!"''''' [[note]]This is the Critic's reaction to Shaggy taking chemicals that cause him to look like a woman.[[/note]

* The Critic freaks out upon Shaggy taking chemicals that cause him to look like a woman: "I WANNA GO HOME!!"

* While Elliot trying to negotiate with a plant is its own form of {{Narm}}, Critic takes it another way and points out that since some plants are making people sick, Elliot has jumped to the conclusion that all plants are evil and actively trying to kill humanity. He then presents Elliot's Most Wanted List: [[Film/TheWizardOfOz The Fighting Trees of Oz]], [[Film/TheLordOfTheRings Treebeard]], [[Disney/{{Pocahontas}} Grandmother Willow]], and [[Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy Groot]].

-->'''Critic:''' [[Disney/{{Frozen}} They'll sing a song so much, you'll want to stab your ears out with an ICE PICK]], but aside from that, they're cool.

* The opening segment showcases a poker game with Peyton Reed, Jennifer Lee, and Creator/PhilLordAndChrisMiller, all making bets on impossible premises for movies (''Disney/{{Frozen}}'', ''Film/AntMan'', and ''WesternAnimation/TheLegoMovie''). [[FunnyBackgroundEvent Rob messing around with his poker chips]] is a particular highlight. When Shyamalan pitches the movie, filled to the brim with CallARabbitASmeerp, we get this exchange.

-->''[singing]'' [[Disney/LadyAndTheTramp We are racist-ese if you prease...]]

* When discussing the [[Disney/LiloAndStitch "Lilo's Name"]] theory:

'''Critic (as Purple monster):''' ''(sounding slightly like [[Disney/TheLionKing Pumbaa]])'' I mean, from a storytelling perspective, it seems so tired and cliched! Hey, Timon! We're on another forced royal plotline again!

--->'''Critic:''' You see?! Even Greek mythology has nothing on these guys! [[Disney/{{Hercules}} Or maybe I just need to brush up on better sources.]]

* When pointing out that the sequel included Atlantis, he noted that the entire franchise goes in descending order. ''Titanic In [[Disney/AtlantisTheLostEmpire Atlantis]]'', ''[[RecycledInSpace Titanic In Space]]''[[note]][[Franchise/StarWars The Saga Continues...]][[/note]] ''[[Film/PoliceAcademy Titanic: Assignment Miami Beach]]''[[note]]Hold everything! The Titanic is dropping in on Miami Beach for a brand new adventure![[/note]], and of course, ''[[Music/{{NWA}} Titanic In The Hood]]''[[note]]''[[Film/StraightOuttaCompton Straight Outta Southhampton]]''[[/note]].

** Sadako Yamamura from ''Film/TheRing'' vs. Kayako Saeki from ''Film/TheGrudge'': Sadako [[ActorAllusion sends]] [[Disney/LiloAndStitch Stitch]] [[ActorAllusion to attack Kayako.]] (This one is even funnier when you know that [[Film/SadakoVsKayako one kinda actually exists]].)

* His frustrated reactions to the celebrity intros from Disney/Fantasia2000. ''Especially'' refusing to let go of the movie calling Creator/SalvadorDali, "[[SmallReferencePools The melting watch guy]]".

* While Elliot trying to negotiate with a plant is its own form of {{Narm}}, Critic takes it another way and points out that since some plants are making people sick, Elliot has jumped to the conclusion that all plants are evil and actively trying to kill humanity. He then presents Elliot's Most Wanted List: [[Film/TheWizardOfOz The Fighting Trees of Oz]], [[Film/LordOfTheRings Treebeard]], [[Disney/{{Pocahontas}} Grandmother Willow]], and [[Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy Groot]].

* While most of the gay jokes on the show don't really work (such as the unintentional homophobia during his Top 11 Dumbest ''Lord of The Rings'' Moments) his RunningGag that Velma is a lesbian surprisingly does (in my opinion anyway). It's actually pretty funny seeing him as an overzealous YuriFanboy that in contrast to the other gay jokes is actually him going all HetIsEw especially with Seth Green's character.
* The Series/Psych parody. All of it.
** Jim does an especially great parody of Lassiter.

* When one of the [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment unnecessary-to-the-plot]] [=YouTube=] videos is shown while the girls and Rio sneak into the record company, Critic notices that the performer is none other than [[Website/ThatGuyWithTheGlasses Channel Awesome]] contributor Rob Scallon. He calls Scallon to ask him why he's in the movie, which leads to him explaining that he [[OldShame did some movies in the past that he wasn't proud of]]. Critic, assuming that Scallon had meant porn (a CallBack to the ''Haunted Mansion'' video, where Critic and Zod had a similar conversation), asks him if he used protection, to which Rob says he did use a lawyer. This leads to a conversation where Rob asks that [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything Critic doesn't see him for what he did, but who he is]]. He does, but soon realizes that Scallon is playing sad music in the background. When he calls him out on it, Scallon, who also has an article on manipulation by speech on his computer, abruptly ends the call.

* Roger asks if the group that will help critic solve the mystery includes [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment hijinks, crazy misadventures and goofy antics.]] [[Series/Psych It's Gus, Lassie and Jules]].

* Critic calling Randy Quaid "Canada's most dangerous criminal".

* When Malcolm and Tamara find Critic in the closet with a gun to his head bemoaning the fact that he "killed" the movie, the first thing that Malcolm does is give Critic a 9 MM pistol instead, for less kickback. Tamara scolds him, and he responds by knocking Critic out instead.
** When Tamara returns with the Ghostbusters Priest, she finds Malcolm trying to assist the Critic again and tells him to get out.

* Critic notes the location of a nuclear power plant nearby a plant nursery and believes that that's the reason why [[spoiler: the plants are killing everyone]].

* After giving the Devil pointers based on the movie, Critic is sent back to Earth, where he sees Satan announcing his invasion of Earth...[[spoiler: with several Kermit puppets singing [[Film/TheMuppetsTakeManhattan "Right Where We Belong"]].]]

* The RunningGag where Tamara!Mom films Critic doing random cat or dog-like things for no particular reason. Despite him demanding an explanation as to why he's being forced to do it, she refuses to give him an explanation. [[spoiler: It's revealed at the end of the video that she cut the film together to make a clickbait type video where "Nostalgia Critic" (actually just clips of Critic!Dad's mouth sloppily pasted over the actual Critic) would negatively review [[Film/Deadpool2016 Deadpool]]. Critic threatens to report them to Website/YouTube and have their channel pulled, but she responds that they told Fox every one of his videos has Deadpool in them and his channel will be pulled before he can make the report. Critic replies that it's ridiculous since all they would need to do is watch one of his videos to see that he doesn't constantly reference Deadpool in his reviews [[TakeThat at which point a notification appears that says 20th Century Fox has issued a copyright claim for said video.]]]]

* The Fandumb and the horse, the latter which becomes a prominent character later on in the review [[spoiler: even flying away with the Fandumb near the end of the video.]]
** The Horse itself is some guy with a gruff ([[IncrediblyLamePun ''hoarse?'']]) voice, a horse-mask and a pinstripe shirt.
* Critic getting annoyed with the talking musical number in which everything gets messed up, in which he HAD to text everyone to tell them to shut up. When he thought it was all over, cue Hyper Fangirl coming in to complain/sing.
** When he sees her, he suddenly hides behind a couch... only for Aunt Despiar/the bad mom to hit him with a cell phone and give two [[FlippingTheBird middle fingers at the others.]]

* TheReveal of the Fandumb. [[spoiler:It's Creator/AndrewLloydWebber who wanted to promote ''Theatre/LoveNeverDies''.]]

** Especially when he's [[spoiler: getting blown up by the horse with a bomb in order to mirror Buquet's death in the film.]] What's even funnier about it is the fact that he [[spoiler: blows up right in front of Tim and Beth as they're shooting a scene and they end up continuing on as if nothing has happened, at the insistence of Critic. He later appears as a ghost in the cemetery while Beth and Hyper Fangirl sing, crying about how his problems aren't as bad as theirs, despite clearly being dead.]]

* Nash reacting predictably to the obvious VisualPun of him and [[spoiler:a photo of dwarf planet Pluto]], telling Critic that even that joke had more effort put into it than anything in the actual film.

* Lex Luthor [[spoiler:gradually transforming into the Joker]].

--->'''Lex:''' My plan is chaos! God vs god! Anarchy! The bell has been rung! Ding-ding-ding! [[spoiler: Let's put a smile on that face!]]
** At the end, [[spoiler: once he's sent to jail, he still tries to convince the audience that he really is Lex because he's bald now. Despite still having the aforementioned black eyes and smothered cherry candy.]]

** Critic realizing that Lex Luthor combining his DNA with Kryptonian DNA to create an uncontrollable monster is essentially [[spoiler: Nuclear Man, the villain from SupermanIVTheQuestForPeace, a.k.a. ''the worst Superman movie ever''.]]
* Joe goes on a lengthy and very aggressive rant about why he thinks [[spoiler:Superman's death]] is rubbish. All throughout his rant, [[TheStoic Nostalgia Critic stays extremely calm, in a neutral pose.]] And when Joe finally finishes his rant, Critic merely adds a little "Ditto."
** There's also his casual dismissal of Jimmy Olsen, suggesting that [[spoiler: Joe actually ''wanted'' to see him die]].
* Despite the movie's flaws and their long list of criticisms towards it, [[spoiler:Joe and Critic actually ''liked'' the film and are still recommending it.]] So why did they barge in Zack Snyder's office? [[spoiler:To try to get to write the following film. They both end up with a black eye for their efforts.]]

* "So Blade once again breaks into Frost's headquarters, he turns a vampire's head into [[WesternAnimation/VeggieTales Bob the Tomato]]" *[[YourHeadAsplode vampire's head explodes]]* "or, Bob the Ketchup..."
* Critic wonders why it [[spoiler: took so long for TheReveal that Blade's mother, Vanessa, was turned into a vampire by Frost.]] This leads to him acting out a conversation where Frost is trying to figure out what Blade's weakness is. When Vanessa tries to say something, he shushes her only to have a breakthrough... That he really likes Oreos. This leads to a freeze frame montage of him enjoying mini-Oreos at a college party.
* The final battle between Blade and Frost. First, it uses the NES version [[VideoGame/NinjaGaiden Ninja Gaiden]]'s sound effects and music, then, it shifts to [[WesternAnimation/WoodyWoodpecker Woody Woodpecker]] sound effects when Frost gains the upper hand.

* To this day, the line, [[spoiler: "Some motherfuckers are always trying to ice-skate uphill"]] still doesn't make any sense to Critic, who wonders what other lines could have been said in its place:

* [[spoiler: Frost's death by the Vampire Serum, in which he swells up and then explodes, leads to Critic yelling [[{{Manga/Akira}} KANEDAAAAAAA!]]]]

** Fangirl retaliates by intimidating Critic with [[CallBack a shot of]] Creator/DonBluth's death glare.
--->'''Critic:''' You whore!
* [[spoiler: Since the old and new Cinderella movies tied, Critic and Hyper Fangirl decide to ask Devil Boner and Benny which movie they think is better. Both [[TakeAThirdOption pick]] ''Film/EverAfter'' instead, and later decide to end their fight due to their mutual appreciation for the movie, even tapping their guns together like a fist bump.]]

* At the very beginning, the Critic announces his intentions to look at the subject of white washing -- which is [[PreemptiveShutUp immediately followed by a comment being typed in the comments section that reads, "YOU'RE WRONG!" over and over again]], before quickly cutting back to the Critic.
** There is a FreezeFrameBonus in the video's description that chastises those for pausing the video at that point.
--->'''Critic:''' Obviously, this is a subject everybody has a strong opinion on, especially given the news recently.

** Chart: [[spoiler: Half "Just wanted a real Jem Movie." and half "You're an Idiot"?]]. They didn't get it.

* When one of the [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment unnecessary-to-the-plot]] [=YouTube=] videos is shown while the [[spoiler: girls and Rio sneak into the record company,]] Critic notices that the performer is none other than [[Website/ThatGuyWithTheGlasses Channel Awesome]] contributor Rob Scallon. He calls Scallon to ask him why he's in the movie, which leads to him explaining that he [[OldShame did some movies in the past that he wasn't proud of]]. Critic, assuming that Scallon had meant porn (a CallBack to the ''Haunted Mansion'' video, where Critic and Zod had a similar conversation), asks him if he used protection, to which Rob says he did use a lawyer. This leads to a conversation where Rob asks that [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything Critic doesn't see him for what he did, but who he is]]. He does, but soon realizes that Scallon is playing sad music in the background. When he calls him out on it, Scallon, who also has an article on manipulation by speech on his computer, abruptly ends the call.

* When Alicia Silverstone's character is introduced, [[spoiler:Critic [[GenreSavvy nonchalantly says that]] [[ItWasHisSled she did it]], [[GenreSavvy and shames the movie for trying to fake the audience out with so many false leads.]] Then at the end...]]
-->[[spoiler:'''Critic:''' So the monsters are all destroyed, and it's finally revealed who the mastermind is... ''(it's Silverstone)'' [[IKnewIt No shit.]]]]
* [[spoiler:Roger's return in this episode, his disguise as a security guard that Critic didn't know worked here, and his desperation to make Critic realize that he is behind Critic being forced to review the movie. As the episode progresses, Roger [[SanitySlippage begins to lose his mind]] as Critic can't seem to figure out that he's behind everything, to the point where he's practically begging to be framed.]]
** And [[ShockingSwerve somehow]], it turns out that [[spoiler:he didn't do it, because "Jules" had done the exact same things that he was planning to do, beating him to it, just for the sake of a more complex mystery.]]
* Deducing that some of the OOC moments that Peter Boyle, Seth Green, and Matthew Lillard have throughout the movie are actual mental breakdowns they had while working on it.
** Similarly, the Critic is convinced that the only reason Creator/SethGreen was part of the movie was to get his co-stars on ''WesternAnimation/RobotChicken''.

* Who's behind the vitriol and hatred between the fanbases? None other than [[spoiler: Black Willy Wonka]], who admits to doing it purely ForTheEvulz after Critic calls him out on the InsaneTrollLogic present in both of the original rationales.

* Critic wonders if anyone watching the film when it was in theaters stayed past the middle of the movie, and brings up a point about the bugs that go after discarded popcorn probably noticing something. This leads to a sketch about said situation, where the bugs also find the projectionist [[SuicideAsComedy hanged himself with the movie reel]]. After watching some of the movie, two of the bugs decide to spray themselves with RAID, [[spoiler: leaving the third to ask Critic to spray him near the end of the review]].

** After Critic recovers from his HeroicBSOD after the review, he remembers about leaving them locked in, he comes back to let them out while cheerily telling them to get out and enjoy Niagara Falls (after signing waivers for any felonies he may or may not have committed) and departs. [[spoiler: Of course, he also shut the door behind him, meaning they're ''still'' locked in]].

** After one particularly stupid scene, the Critic turns to the bottle... only to find it empty. Cut to a completely smashed Tamara and Malcolm on a shuttle singing, ''having drunk the entire bottle''. [[spoiler:Their shuttle explodes when they steer it into the sun.]]

* The new Nostalgiaween opening is a parody of ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls''.
** As expected, it contains a backwards whisper. [[https://youtu.be/9hN3nHrWzvA Playing it backwards reveals it says,]] "[[spoiler:[[TakeThatAudience You really played this backwards? What's wrong with you?]]]]"

** In the running parody, the possessed Tamara and Malcolm turn a bit more British than usual. [[spoiler:As in, they are both replaced by [[WebVideo/BadMovieBeatdown Mathew Buck]] in different wigs.]]
*** When we have the BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind, reflecting the movie, we find out that [[spoiler: Malcolm is genuinely frightened of the EvilBrit - not that ''particular'' one, just the trope in general. Tamara then tricks him with one of the most anticlimactic instances of GoLookAtTheDistraction ever.]]

* After [[spoiler: TheReveal that Dudditz was an alien the entire time, Critic finds himself under attack by the Film Brain versions of Malcolm and Tamara. Chester A. Bum saves him by turning into an alien and destroying them. Critic then assumes that Chester's personality is that way because he's an alien... Only for the ''real'' Chester to show up and berate Critic for assuming that his mental health problems were because he was an alien. He then goes back to yelling for change in the prop/greenscreen room.]]

** [[Film/TheWizardOfOz Dorothy]] vs. [[VideoGame/AmericanMcGeesAlice Alice]]: [[spoiler: Alice stabs Dorothy to death.]]
** ''Franchise/StarTrek'' vs. ''Franchise/StarWars'': [[spoiler: Darth Vader tells Geordi La Forge that [[LukeIAmYourFather he is his father]], and La Forge wonders if that makes Vader a black person, which Vader immediately denies.]]
** Ash from ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' vs. Ash from ''Franchise/TheEvilDead'': [[spoiler: Ash Williams ends up murdering Pikachu with his chainsaw.]]
--->[[spoiler:'''Ash Williams:''' VideoGame/PokemonGo [[PrecisionFStrike fuck]] [[BondOneLiner yourself]]!]]
** Joker from ''Film/TheDarkKnight'' vs. Joker from ''Film/SuicideSquad2016'': [[spoiler: ''Suicide Squad'' Joker disappears because he was cut for intensity.]]
** Sadako Yamamura from ''Film/TheRing'' vs. Kayako Saeki from ''Film/TheGrudge'': [[spoiler: Sadako [[ActorAllusion sends]] [[Disney/LiloAndStitch Stitch]] [[ActorAllusion to attack Kayako.]]]] (This one is even funnier when you know that [[Film/SadakoVsKayako one kinda actually exists]].)
** Devil Boner vs. Santa Christ: [[spoiler: Devil Boner simply shoots Santa Christ.]]
** Devil Boner vs. Chester A. Bum: [[spoiler: Devil Boner also shoots Chester.]]
** Devil Boner vs. Devil Food Cake: [[spoiler: Devil Boner eats the cake in an [[LargeHam over-the-top fashion]].]]
** Devil Boner vs. Hyper Fan Girl: [[spoiler: They're SickeninglySweethearts like before, and they immediately start kissing each other with Devil Boner's gun going off. Their sexing continues over the commercial break.]]
** At the end of the video, Critic ends up finding the scariest crossover ever: [[spoiler: Creator/ZackSnyder and Creator/MichaelBay!]]

** After this, the Critic and the Nerds task Bailey into creating a transformation worthy of his vocal talent that embodies the franchises of the 80's and 90's, resulting in [[spoiler:Super-[[WesternAnimation/Thundercats1985 Thunder]]-[[Series/MightyMorphinPowerRangers Morphin]]-[[Franchise/{{Batman}} Bat]]-[[WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles1987 Ninja]]-[[WesternAnimation/HeManAndTheMastersOfTheUniverse He]]-[[WesternAnimation/GIJoeARealAmericanHero Joe]].]] Bailey requests to be transformed... only for the Critic and Nerds to refuse to do so, in order to mirror how in the movie [[spoiler: the turtles decided not to use the mutagen to become humans ([[TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot which was a plot point they were genuinely interested in seeing the movie exploring]]).]]

* [[spoiler:The [[CallBack Plaidipus Bunny]] returns, [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext courtesy of Malcolm's genes.]]]]
** The reason ''why'' this happens: [[spoiler:apparently, Michael Bay and Zack Snyder [[FusionDance merged into one]] and turned into a giant.]]
--->'''[[spoiler:Zack Snyder]]:''' [[spoiler:Bay and I have fused into one! Our love of destroying things has finally resulted in the destruction of our species!]]
** What makes it hilarious is that [[spoiler:like how Krang is in a robot's chest, Zack appears to be in Michael Bay's ass.]]
** After [[spoiler: Bay and Snyder are defeated, the Critic and the Nerds decide to play some Ninja Turtles games, while in the background...]]
--->[[spoiler:"[[BrickJoke Don't forget Super-Thunder-Morphin-Bat]]--" ''(credits start)'' "Dang it!"]]

** Hoping to find a [[BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor more creative commercial]], he changes the channel, [[spoiler: only to land on the famously disturbing Little Baby's Ice Cream commercial.]]
* In regard to the Little Baby's Ice Cream commercial, the Critic in the video is so horrified by the commercial in question, that he "expires" and so another Critic comes in to finish the job for him. He replays the commercial but cuts out the mentioning of ice cream, making it sound like it's talking about [[EatsBabies Eating Babies]].

* The Critic is still confused as to why Penny never gets the credit for being the real hero of the series. Cue [[spoiler: [[DoNotAdjustYourSet his video being hijacked]] by an older Penny announcing how the fight between MAD and her uncle (who was really a prototype for a more sophisticated Franchise/{{Terminator}}-esque robot) was a mere LetsYouAndHimFight distraction whilst she was scheming to TakeOverTheWorld. And to top it all off, the Critic is then shown sitting in StunnedSilence as Creator/CreeSummer - Penny's original voice actress (who voices Penny in the hijacked video here) - hands his tablet back to him, having asked her just to say "Ooh, I don't like that Uncle Gadget", and instead getting ''[[GoneHorriblyRight that]]''.]]
-->'''[[spoiler: Penny]]:''' Penny for your thoughts, ''[[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch bitches]]''?

* The reason for D-Bag's... well, [[ShapedLikeItself d-bag]] behavior? [[spoiler: He's the Devil's nephew!]]

* The Critic is annoyed that ''Rogue One'' doesn't start with the traditional OpeningScroll that he demands his own. Sure enough, it appears, calling ''Rogue One'' Episode 3.9, but it stops partway through as the process is "difficult". [[spoiler: It stays that way for the rest of the review]]. Made even funnier when we glance to the side and see Rob furiously typing away on a keyboard. That he's holding sideways.

[[spoiler: ''[gets killed by the low-powered test shot from the Death Star]'']]\\

* After pointing that [[spoiler: Grand Moff Tarkin]] is in the film.
-->'''Critic:''' Wait a minute. How did they film that if [[spoiler: Peter Cushing is dead]]? ''[Chris looks at him]'' Oh no, not--!\\

* [[TheStinger After the credits roll]], it cuts to the Critic reading a Princess Leia comic saying there's nothing else and "see you in January". Making him remember that it's January, and you know what that means! [[spoiler: Sequel Month: The Sequel! Critic's expression turns into one of horror and he screams]].

* Critic comments on the setup for the movie being so meta that even TheMuppets would take issue with it.
-->'''Kermit:''' You know I'm just a bunch of foam with a puppeteer attached to me, right? ''(zoom out to reveal Doug dressed as Creator/JimHenson)'' I don't even know how many more fourth walls we can break!

'''Critic (as Rhett):''' And by the way, don't smoke.
(''Rhett walks off'')

--->'''Dad:''' No, Zoloft and Riddlin. Just mix it in with the liquid tranquilizer.

--->'''Tamara''': I just cannot ''imagine'' [[WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids watching this as a child]]. Are you kidding me? ''Wheelers''? No-o-o-o. No, what the fuck, how did you ''watch'' this as a kid? How did you do that? Oh my god - is that why [[Creator/DougWalker the Walker brothers]] are so weird? Huh. [[EurekaMoment It all makes sense]].

** The entire narrative of this episode is a parody of ''Theatre/{{Amadeus}}''.

-->"IT BEGINS!"

* The RunningGag where Tamara!Mom films Critic doing random cat or dog-like things for no particular reason. Despite him demanding an explanation as to why he's being forced to do it, she refuses to give him an explanation. [[spoiler: It's revealed at the end of the video that she cut the film together to make a clickbait type video where "Nostalgia Critic" (actually just clips of Critic!Dad's mouth sloppily pasted over the actual Critic) would negatively review [[Film/Deadpool2016 Deadpool]]. Critic threatens to report them to YouTube and have their channel pulled, but she responds that they told Fox every one of his videos has Deadpool in them and his channel will be pulled before he can make the report. Critic replies that it's ridiculous since all they would need to do is watch one of his videos to see that he doesn't constantly reference Deadpool in his reviews [[TakeThat at which point a notification appears that says 20th Century Fox has issued a copyright claim for said video.]]]]

* When discussing the best Cinderella, we have this exchange that doubles as a CrowningMomentOfAwesome:

* Roger asks if the group that will help critic solve the mystery includes [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment hijinks, crazy misadventures and goofy antics.]] [[Series/Psyche It's Gus, Lassie and Jules]].

* The Series/Psyche parody. All of it.

-->'''Critic!Shawn''': [[{[Deadpan}} A ton...]]
