* When Film Brain made his review of ''Film/SevenPounds'', he feared that he would get a backlash similar to ''Film/{{Equilibrium}}''. The fact that the backlash didn't happen, especially when you consider [[TearJerker what inspired him to do it]] is heartwarming in itself.
* Film Brain delayed his review of 2012 in the light of the Japanese Tsunami. He had even edited out a joke during the scene involving the death of a Japanese family and made it clear that he only included the Japanese tidal wave scene because it's part of the movie.
* He regularly pimps his coworkers on Twitter for at least three days in a row whenever their videos appear on the site.
* At the end of the ''Reckoning Day'' review, Film Brain mentions lordhebe is off to university. Their farewell is very sweet.

* After furiously tearing ''Film/TheCavern'' apart for [[spoiler: ending partway through a rape scene]], he calms down and bids his viewers a happy and safe Halloween. [[note]]Although he did note that the video was released a day or two late.[[/note]]
** It’s subtle but you could tell he felt ''regret'' over his rant when he calms down, as if he felt ashamed for his viewers to see him in that state, though no one would blame him for what he had to watch.
* Film Brain and WebVideo/TheRapCritic cheerfully hanging out before the review of ''Set Up''. You can see that they're genuinely enjoying the chat, and it feels like Mathew is just reciting how he pitched the crossover in the first place.
* Defending fans of ''Literature/TheTwilightSaga'' from the exceptionally mean-spirited ending credits of ''[[ShallowParody Breaking Wind: Part 1]]''. Even [[FanHater Matt]] felt it was [[EveryoneHasStandards cruel]] and him defending it despite his own hatred of the series is both this and a [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome moment of awesome]].
* Following the news that Creator/ZackSnyder was stepping down from directing the ''Justice League'' movie to properly grieve for his daughter's suicide, Mathew not only offered his sincerest condolences to Snyder (which definitely came off as far more genuine compared to the "condolences" other critics had given out to the Snyders at the time, especially when taking Mathew's own experience with losing a loved one to suicide into consideration), but he also canceled any and all Bad Movie Beatdowns for Snyder's movies he had planned for on the grounds that he felt like he would kicking a man while he's down and he didn't want to perpetuate the negativity anymore.
