* WebVideo/OnCinema: Gregg considers On Cinema to be a highly respected institution, going so far as to call it "the premeire source in the United States and worldwide" for movie information

* Holly [[ItMakesSenseInContext the giant floating head]] from WebVideo/CaptainDisillusion. They literally think they control everything.
--> '''Holly''': "I control the animals, the people, and everything else in the universe. Even the random stuff"

* TheSharkasmCrew divides itself into smaller crews for Crew Battles. AMPS is easily the most outspoken about their confidence in winning said Crew Battles. They never do.

* Draco Malfoy in ''AVeryPotterMusical'' is this trope through {{Flanderization}} of his original character and he's surprisingly more canon than DracoInLeatherPants. He's a bullying coward who believes the only thing keeping him from being the coolest kid in school is Harry and is constantly trying pose and failing ''spectacularly''. He does shape up and join the good guys later on in the show but he's still got the ego.

* Kirbopher in ''{{TOME}}'', all the way.

* Jimmy Brennan of ''SurvivalOfTheFittest'' is a mixture of this and MilesGloriosus. He's [[SarcasmMode definitely]] the most badass, [[RatedMForManly manly]], and awesome character on the island who can kick ANY ass!

* Jimmy Brennan of ''SurvivalOfTheFittest'' is a mixture of this and MilesGloriosus. He's [[SarcasmMode definitely]] the most {{Badass}}, [[RatedMForManly manly]], and awesome character on the island who can kick ANY ass!

* WebVideo/ConfusedMatthew is often perceived as this. He got considerable backlash for attacking Creator/RogerEbert and claiming he was either an idiot or a liar for recommending ''Film/MinorityReport''. And for attacking Creator/StanleyKubrick in his review of ''Film/TwoThousandOneASpaceOdyssey''.
** It isn't so much egotism, rather he is simply very opinionated, very opposed to common viewpoints on movies, has very high standards, and (most importantly) very LOUD!

* [[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall Linkara]] the character is this, berating his fans for asking his opinions on comics. Of course, out-of-character, an "I love you guys" is very quickly added. Lewis himself admits to having an ego, but he makes sure to refine his skills in order to stay on AwesomeEgo territory.
** A recent arc even focused on his arrogance being the first step on the path to a FaceHeelTurn. Time will tell how long this lasts.

* Draco Malfoy in ''AVeryPotterMusical'' is this trope through AlternateCharacterInterpretation (although this particular trait is mainly through Flanderization of his original character and he's surprisingly more canon than DracoInLeatherPants). He's a bullying coward who believes the only thing keeping him from being the coolest kid in school is Harry and is constantly trying pose and failing ''spectacularly''. He does shape up and join the good guys later on in the show but he's still got the ego.

* WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic also has shades of this (again, the character is an ass but his actor is lovely), and his is of the "big ego but easily - [[BreakTheHaughty and often]] - shattered self-esteem" variety.

--> '''John''' (''reading out a letter''): Dear Dredge, I'm a big fan of the Nothing To Do With Anything Show, but feel that the main supporting actor, Greg Haiste, is somewhat underused. What do you propose do to about it? Yours hopefully, Greg Haiste. Well Greg, we've taken everything you've said on board - and completely dismissed it.

* Jim Sterling, at least the character with the same name as him he plays in WebVideo/{{Jimquisition}}, ends every video with "Thank God for me." He regularly says things like "there you go, I have, once again single-handedly saved the video game industry." Although, it has to be noted that when standing on his podium next to the ComicBook/{{VForVendetta}}-style background much of what he says is firmly in SarcasmMode territory.

** It isn't so much egotism, rather he is simply very opinionated, very opposed to common viewpoints on movies, and (most importantly) very LOUD!

[[spoiler: The fact that he's Zetto's alternate account might have something to do with it, as Zetto was very arrogant in his early days of TOME before he encountered the Forbidden Power.

* WebVideo/ConfusedMatthew is often perceived as this. He got considerable backlash for attacking RogerEbert and claiming he was either an idiot or a liar for recommending ''MinorityReport''. And for attacking Stanley Kubrick in his review of ''Film/TwoThousandOneASpaceOdyssey''.

* Matt in ''WebVideo/TwoBestFriendsPlay'' during the ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3'' video. He had played the game beforehand and thought he would kick Pat's ass. He did at first, but Pat eventually learned how to play the game and did much better than Matt, and showed that he actually knew who the characters were. And that's not taking into account the ''incredible'' level of humiliation they ''both'' suffered at the hands of an unnamed third guy, who was far more intimately familiar with the game than either of them.
** Third person was probably [[OnlySaneMan Woolie]].

** Generally not the case though. He doesn't show much egotism, rather he is simply very opinionated, very opposed to common viewpoints on movies, and (most importantly) very LOUD!

** Overall, its save to say that the majority of ThatGuyWithTheGlasses members have at least once played off that concept.
