History Heartwarming / TheCinemaSnob

* Brad pointing out that ''The Babe Ruth Story'', while a bad film due to its TastesLikeDiabetes tone and [[WTHCastingAgency odd casting of the titular character]], does at least seem to legitimately like Creator/BabeRuth and want to portray him [[AllLovingHero in a positive way]] (unlike how the aforementioned ''Wired'' did with John Belushi).

* His review of ''Film/TheStreetFighter'' trilogy is nothing but praise for the late Creator/ShinichiChiba, acknowledging how badass he was. The same can be said for his review of ''Film/Clifford'', dedicated to the late co-star Charles Grodin and praising his darkly hilariously unhinged performance in the film, along with other love for his other works.

* His review of ''Film/TheStreetFighter'' trilogy is nothing but praise for the late Creator/ShinichiChiba, acknowledging how badass he was.

* While his review for ''Film/{{Maniac}}'' is definitely given in sarcasm, it's interesting to note that - throughout the review - he is secretly demonstrating a genuine appreciation for a film that has had little such praise. He's defending its merit against those who gave a film such negative criticism for its violent and sleazy nature ''when that was the entire point of making it''.

** While he is more critical of the fourth film for back sliding into the over the top drama of the first two and saying it feels like a film made out of obligation and to fund more ambitious projects, Brad also gives praise for improvements such as the more sympathetic portrayal of Ayisha's father and acknowledging that the creators, both of these films and Pureflix in general, genuinely made an effort to listen to criticism and for David AR White's performance with Brad calling him "one of the most likable and underrated leading men in movies right now". He goes even further in saying how, despite all his jokes about the previous films, the people behind them sent him message of support when he was in hospital the previous year and Brad says that while he may disagree with them, he can acknowledge them as good people.

* While Brad's review of ''Film/{{Gotti}}'' describes it as a pretty bad movie overall because the poor editing turns it into a confusing RandomEventsPlot that doesn't really provide insight into John Gotti, he expresses this very sympathetically, feeling that the movie has a lot of ambition behind it, a decent soundtrack (though many of the songs are poorly included in the movie) and a cast that puts genuine effort into their performances, especially Creator/JohnTravolta; so much so that he finds the movie's badness more sad than amusing.

* The Snob's appreciation for Arch Hall Jr. and his musical abilities in the ''Wild Guitar'' review, shown when he's ready to hurl vitriol at “Yes I Will” only to relent and, during "I'm Growing Taller," dance happily to it. By the end of the movie, he straight up admits that he ''loves'' the movie.

** Hell, him gushing over movies he loves in general, like ''Film/TheHollywoodKnights'', ''Film/ThatDarnCat'', ''Film/NightOfTheCreeps'', ''Film/Carrie1976'', Film/JamesBond, ''Film/PhantomOfTheParadise'', ''Film/LittleShopOfHorrors'', ''Film/HalloweenIIISeasonOfTheWitch'' or ''Film/TheWitches1990''.

* His review of ''Film/TheStreetFighter'' trilogy is nothing but praise for the late [[Creator/ShinichiChiba Sonny Chiba]], acknowledging how badass he was.

** He reviewed ''Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000TheMovie'' for its twenty-fifth anniversary. It's essentially him gushing about ''MST3K'' and how much he and others like him owe the show.

* He opens up the ''Film/{{Goldfinger}}'' review with a moving tribute to Creator/SeanConnery, [[AuthorExistenceFailure who passed away a few weeks back]].

* The Snob acknowledging that however silly ''Film/MobstersAndMormons'' is, it's still the rare religious film he's reviewed where the religious characters are genuinely kind to others, and there's legitimate CharacterDevelopment ''without'' going into CharacterDerailment or EasyEvangelism. He contrasts this to the various Creator/PureFlixEntertainment movies he's reviewed in which the non-Evangelical antagonists tend to suffer... rather bad fates.

* His review of ''Film/RepoTheGeneticOpera'' is similar. Brad mentioned that when he first watched the movie, he turned it off midway through. Years later, he gave it another go and is way more complimentary, acknowledging its appeal and that it's exactly the kind of film designed to have a cult following. He even defends ''Creator/ParisHilton'' of all people.

* Through his review of ''Film/Halloween4TheReturnOfMichaelMyers'', he kept making jokes about how bitchy the character of Rachel was, but when the topic came up about Rachel's actress getting injured during filming a scene, but didn't go to the hosptial till it was done, even he had to give her props, showing that while he may hate the character, but not the actor... unless it's Kirk Cameron.

** Hell, him gushing over movies he loves in general, like ''Film/TheHollywoodKnights'', ''Film/ThatDarnCat'' or ''Film/NightOfTheCreeps''.

* The Snob's review of ''Film/TheRockyHorrorPictureShow'' is entirely kind to the film and plays along with the audience participation, despite it possibly seeming more likely for the Snob to poke fun at the popularity of the film. At the end, he gives it a pretty glowing review, and also takes another moment to advocate for ''Film/ShockTreatment'' as well, maybe even giving it higher praise than its own review got.
