[[FollowTheLeader Citing influences]] from Website/ThatGuyWithTheGlasses, Il Neige takes them down with a good sense of humor and dry commentary along the way. You can also watch his work on {{Geekvision}} and Website/TheAgonyBooth.

He has also gained [[http://channelawesome.com/category/videos/producers/il-neige/ a place]] on Website/ChannelAwesome. He has set up his own [[https://vid.me/IlNeige Vidme account]].

* TheCastShowoff: Averted. Garrett himself actually sings and plays guitar in a small band called [[http://www.myspace.com/emrusmusic Emrus]] but never actually performs songs in his videos, unless they're meant to be [[StylisticSuck intentionally bad]] joke songs.

* MissingEpisode: His review of the movie ''WesternAnimation/MonsterHouse'' is nowhere to be seen on any of the sites he's featured on. Though he DOES still have a copy of it saved somewhere, he just hasn't reuploaded it anywhere at present. Luckily, it, and a few of his ''other'' reviews not on YouTube, have since been reuploaded to his Vidme account.

* PoesLaw: His Nintendo Song is meant to be a satire of people who deride Nintendo for being samey, yet absolutely praise [[AssassinsCreed certain]] [[VideoGame/CallOfDuty non-Nintendo]] [[VideoGame/MaddenNFL franchises]] that [[{{Hypocrite}} do the exact same thing, but worse]]. That said, there were some who didn't get the joke.

** WeAreExperiencingTechnicalDifficulties: Whenever his fourth wall gets broken.

* BerserkButton: Loud, obnoxious and overall [[TheLoad useless]] characters that function solely as lame comic relief, especially Goon from ''WesternAnimation/TitanAE'', Mole from ''Disney/AtlantisTheLostEmpire'', Snails from ''Film/DungeonsAndDragons'', Louis from ''Film/KangarooJack'', and BEN from ''Disney/TreasurePlanet''.

* CausticCritic: Mostly subverted. While he is quick to point out flaws in a movie and tear them a new one, he is willing to acknowledge when they might get something right.

** He also makes a cameo in WebVideo/TheUnusualSuspect's reviews of ''Film/TheTwoTowers'' and ''Film/ThePhantomMenace".

* NostalgiaFilter: Somewhat subverted in the TreasurePlanet review - the things he liked as a kid, he started to take issue with as an adult, and vice versa.

* ObviouslyEvil: Literally points this out with Commander Rourke in AtlantisTheLostEmpire.

[[http://blip.tv/what-we-had-to-watch What We Had To Watch]] is a video review series written by and starring Garrett Snook, aka Il Neige (formerly DJ Il Neige), who reviews [[SoOkayItsAverage mediocre]] movies of the last ten years. [[FollowTheLeader Citing influences]] from Website/ThatGuyWithTheGlasses, Il Neige takes them down with a good sense of humor and dry commentary along the way. You can also watch his work on {{Geekvision}} and Website/TheAgonyBooth.

* ActingForTwo: In some cases.

* BerserkButton: Loud, obnoxious and overall [[TheLoad useless]] characters that function solely as lame comic relief, especially Goon from WesternAnimation/TitanAE, Mole from Disney/AtlantisTheLostEmpire, Snails from Film/DungeonsAndDragons, Louis from Film/KangarooJack, and BEN from Disney/TreasurePlanet.

** He also makes a cameo in [[WebVideo/TheUnusualSuspect The Unusual Suspect's]] review of ''Film/TheTwoTowers''.

* MauveShirt: Points out how this wasn't handled well in AtlantisTheLostEmpire in the scene when the other characters just sum up their life stories immediately after the big action scene without giving the audience a chance to attach themselves to the characters first.
--> Il Neige: "Honestly, the leviathan could've killed off any one of these characters, and I wouldn't miss any of them because I didn't know anything about them."
* MoneyDearBoy: Theorizes that this is the reason why many good actors took on the bad roles in their films.
--> Il Neige: (concerining Jeremy Irons' [[LargeHam over-the-top performance]] in Film/DungeonsAndDragons): "Okay, [[SincerityMode no joke]] I think he (Jeremy Irons) was just wasted. I do. I think at this point in production, Irons was so fed up that he just got progressively more drunk while he waited for his paycheck."
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: During the ''MonsterHouse'' review.
-->'''Il Neige''': *In regards to Mr. Nebercracker* Just die already! Just die just die just die!

--> '''Il Neige''': Oh god what have I done?

* OneOfUs: [[http://twitter.com/#!/DJilneige/status/115475733589135361 He knows about this page]].

** EasilyForgiven: In regards to Jim forgiving Silver in TreasurePlanet despite the latter betraying him, Il Neige himself took issue with how happy this ending came off in comparison to the more BittersweetEnding in the [[TreasureIsland source material]] and other adaptations, like MuppetTreasureIsland.
* RunningGag: [[UnusualEuphemism Cheesecake]], usage of StarFox64 quotes ("Do a barrel roll!") and [[BreakingTheFourthWall his fourth wall barrier getting broken]].
** Another in his Film/DungeonsAndDragons review of not even bothering to get TheDragon's name correct, from calling him Didgeridoo, Daisy Dukes and VideoGame/DanceDanceRevolution.
** Anytime the characters pull off some crazy stunt he yells "EXTREME!!!" to a guitar riff.
* ShamelessSelfPromotion: His review of [[WebVideo/TheLegendOfZeldaTheSageOfDarkness The Sage Of Darkness]] may have been motivated by the fact that it was made by his friends, and he has a bit part in it. Nonetheless, he claims to have been impartial.
* ScheduleSlip: It can take him months on end to get something out, though it's justified as Garrett is also a full time student and works another job.

* SomethingOnlyTheyWouldSay: [[RBGProductions Spazz]] says this when he's about to beat the [[WebVideo/BadMovieBeatdown British]] out of Il Neige. His answer [[{{Catchphrase}} Oh come on]]!

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: He originally called himself DJ Il Neige and initially planned to solely focus on and review musical movies, but scrapped the idea after feeling he might not have enough material to work with.
* WeAreExperiencingTechnicalDifficulties: Whenever his fourth wall gets broken.

--> (after a crude joke was made) Il Neige: "Film/KangarooJack - an action comedy for the entire family!"
