5	!!This review contains examples of:
6	* CallBack: "A-CHUCK NORRIIIIIIIIIISSSSSS!!!", first used in the ''Sidekicks'' review.
7	** This is not the first time [[Recap/TheNostalgiaCriticS2E7 the Critic couldn't talk due to the lack of quality in a movie.]]
8	* TheCameo: [[WesternAnimation/CaptainPlanetAndThePlaneteers Ma-Ti]], [[WebVideo/TheSpoonyExperiment Dr. Insano]], [[WebVideo/BumReviews Chester A. Bum]] and [[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall 90s Kid]] briefly appear during the shooting-in-the-dark scene, only to get shot immediately after.
9	* {{Crossdresser}}: Twice in the review, Spoony makes The Critic say "I like to wear women's clothing!" by typing it into his speech program.
10	* CrossOver: With [[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall Linkara]] and [[WebVideo/TheSpoonyExperiment Spoony]].
11	* DumbStruck: He got so traumatized by the awfulness of the movie, he couldn't speak.
12	* {{Expy}}: As part of the ShoutOut mentioned below, the title card calls the Critic, Spoony and Linkara "[[Film/TheThreeStooges The Three Shmuckheads]]".
13	* LostVoicePlot: He couldn't speak due to the awfulness of the movie.
14	* {{Retirony}}: Repeatedly invoked on various side characters as a RunningGag.
15	* SmartPeopleWearGlasses: Spoony tries to defy this by saying, "As if wearing glasses makes you look any smarter." Cue DeathGlare from both [[SpecsOfAwesome the Critic and Linkara]].
16	--> '''Spoony''': (meekly) I... need glasses.
17	* ShoutOut: The title card and ending sequence parody ''Film/TheThreeStooges''. The title card also uses the theme from the ''Three Stooges'' short "Yes, We Have No Bonanza".
18	* SyntheticVoiceActor: The Critic has no actual spoken dialogue apart from using a text-to-speech program.
19	* WithLyrics: The trio add lyrics to the ''Franchise/StarWars'' theme when the endless OpeningScroll is shown in ''Alone in the Dark'':
