** Speaking of which; he later derided ''Film/Joker2019'' for "wearing its [Scorsese] inspirations on its sleeve". To which many have pointed out him doing the same in his films; especially ''Film/KingCandy'' [[note]] Granted, he was in High School when he made that film. [[/note]].
** Speaking of that review, Ralph's constant snark and mockery of Music/HildurGudnadottir's score for ''Joker'' becomes this when the film ended up winning two Oscars, one of them being ''Best Score''.

* CriticalResearchFailure: During his review of ''WebVideo/PopQuizHotshot'', Ralph incorrectly states that Creator/DougWalker retired WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic specifically to make the online game show, acting as if it was Doug's big passion project. Doug actually ended the Nostalgia Critic to make ''WebVideo/DemoReel'' and revived the character when his new show failed to find success. Doug and his team created ''Pop Quiz Hotshot'' a few years after ''Demo Reel'' and only because Mike Michaud, the CEO of Website/ChannelAwesome, randomly demanded that they create a game show for the website, with Doug producing new Nostalgia Critic reviews while also hosting the game show. Ralph must have thought the Nostalgia Critic came back in 2015 because that was when the Channel Awesome videos were uploaded on YouTube (they were on the Channel Awesome website until that point).
** In the same video, Ralph accuses Doug himself of doing this, such as when Doug claimed ''Film/ThePrestige'' was not a Creator/ChristopherNolan movie.

** Ralph's fans also don't get along well with horror movie reviewer Ryan Hollinger due to Hollinger criticizing Sepi for his immense CausticCritic attitude.
** [[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall Linkara fans]] also don't get along with Ralph's fans mainly because Ralph decided to do a negative review on ''Atop The Fourth Wall: The Movie", which at some felt was just Ralph's way of joining in the drama surrounding Lewis and [=OneyPlays=] over a joke Lewis found unfunny.

This doesn't read as a Broken Base, it reads like an attempt at Alternative Character Interpretation. Considering how much criticism his video got, there are other tropes detailing this.


** The ''Film/Joker2019'' review is looked down upon even by some of his hardcore fans. Some argue it's a trolling review while others feel it's just Ralph reviewing a highly praised film and slamming it for [[ItsPopularNowItSucks being a popular movie]], not helped with him [[ViewersAreMorons attacking the fans for enjoying the movie]]. Still others, regardless of their opinion of the movie itself, have defended Ralph against the movie's fans, who seem to attack anyone who doesn't love the movie.

** His ''[[Film/Joker2019 Joker]]'' review has become this for internet film critics due to his unreasonable arguments, heavy BiasSteamroller arguments and [[ItsPopularNowItSucks complaining how the movie became big]]. Special points in particular go to his [[InsaneTrollLogic insane and borderline illogical arguments]] about Music/HildurGudnadottir's score, in particular with "sad music for the sake of sad music" during [[SignatureScene the Bathroom dance scene]].

* HePannedItNowHeSucks: His ''Film/Joker2019'' review garnered immense dislike from his own audience, mainly because he argued the movie ripped off a lot of other, "better" movies, and called it edgy without explaining why those are bad. This was not helped with his jabs at the ''Joker'' fanbase and labeling them as various things like "children" or "edgy teens", and coming off as very bias against the movie for being both a comical book movie, and because it was so well received. While some tried to defend it by saying it was a trolling video, Ralph's comments in the video and outside it make it clear he was being serious, which resulted in a lot of people calling him out for his poor behavior.

While some tried to defend it by saying it was a trolling video, Ralph's overly sarcastic comments about the film without giving an explanation of why. Many of his arguments boiled to "the film is worse than other films" or "its just an edgy comic book film", ignoring many elements of the film or outright lying by cutting certain scenes in the video. His hypocritical comment about getting hate for it, while insulting fans didn't help either, and it remains his most disliked video and outside it make it clear he was being serious, which resulted in a lot of people calling him out for his poor behavior.period.
