Prometheus
- At the end of the movie when the facehugger shoots a hammerpede into the Engineer's mouth:Film Brain: And then they do it! (grinning slyly) Ah, yeah.
- His exasperation at Vickers's un-importance peaks when she says she didn't want to come on the expedition.Film Brain: Then why are you even in this movie?! I mean, on this ship?!
- When noting Guy Pearce's role as Weyland and discussing why it's strangeMr. Burns: (over a clip of old!Weyland walking) Smithers, I'm not quite defrosted yet!
Setup
Don't Look Down
I Love You Beth Cooper
- His reaction to Rich getting the release date of Scarface (1983) wrong.Film Brain: And for the record, Scarface came out in 1983, not 1982. See what you've made me do? You've turned me into the pedantic guy who corrects the irritating bloke that spouts movie quotes! (sobs) You've turned me into everything I hate, and all you had to do was check IMDb.
Nutty Professor II: The Klumps
Breaking Wind
- "Yes, I'm reviewing a film where even the title card farts twice! Somehow I think that says it all, and yet I'll still elaborate, 'cause obviously I'm a bit of a masochist."
- The fart joke counter.Film Brain: When you hear a fart joke, that's the sound of creative bankruptcy. Alas, this counter does not extend to every gag about fecal matter, because that would mean counting half the damn jokes.
- "Basically, the film's humor relies on the three F's: farts, fucking, and more fucking farting!"
- "You can always tell when a comedy's run out of steam when they bring on the little people. It's funny 'cause they're short! Let's see, how long did that take?" (eyes widen) "NINE MINUTES?! They hit the little person button that early and I'm only this far in?! Fuck me, this is gonna be a long review!"
- "Take Jacob. You could really mine the fact that he plays Mr. Nice Guy basically so that he can have a shot in [Bella's] pants, and how he's equally manipulative. Or he can have a 12-inch cock. Whatever works."
- "Instead, we have a film with so many jokes about fucking, I'm pretty sure I caught an STD just by watching it."
- "And really, if you wanna laugh at Twilight, go watch the first, second, and fifth films, since they're pretty much unintentional comedies anyway. All watching this does is reward the filmmakers' lack of effort and encourage them further. And pray they don't make a part two. Or to put it in terms this movie frankly deserves: (blows a loud raspberry while giving the V salute)"
Awake
Gone Fishin
- His pre-clip start summary.Film Brain: So let's take this fish and give it a gutting and de-boning for a delicious beatdown. And even by my standards, that was incredibly forced.
The Hangover Part II
- Realizing how much the movie is cribbing from the previous installment.Film Brain: (increasingly anguished as the camera zooms in) Again. Again. Again! Again!
- His anger at the filmmakers constantly sidelining Justin Bartha, even in the THIRD ONE. (Even though, based on the setup they chose for this one, you would have thought they'd have, maybe, actually lost Ed Helms.)Film Brain: Justin Bartha, stop being useless!
Project X
- Film Brain constantly getting irritated at how much of the cast consists of Danzas.
- His introduction of the "Screw Costa" Count.Film Brain: And since he's so personally responsible for everything that happens, I'll be keeping what I call a "Screw Costa" Count. I'd say he's at about a 2 so far. "Screw Costa: 2" pops on the screen.
- Wondering what the party members mouths taste like.Film Brain: Mmm. Smells like alcohol, vomit and low self-esteem.
- Claiming that he does actually go out and socialize, using a secret on the TGWTG confessions blog that mentions him being at a party as proof. Then he quips about how after it was posted all of his fellow producers messaged him because they were so surprised by the fact.
- Wondering why so many wild parties feature people breaking things for fun. And then getting excited as he rips up a random piece of paper.Film Brain: Yes! Yeah! We're partying now!
- Matt criticizing the sudden reappearance of T-Rick as a Lethal Weapon 4-style flamethrower-wielding maniac with a certain meme.Film Brain: Holy arbitrary climax, Batman!
I Now Pronounce You Chuck And Larry
- "You know, if you have an erection, you don't need to plunge the clunge with the first woman you meet! You know, there's this little thing called wanking! Try it sometime!"
Strange Wilderness
Just Go With It
- Reacting to his egotistical answer to this question: "If you could name one person, besides yourself, who would you be?" He says he's fully comfortable with who he is.Film Brain: Oh, thanks for that. But the question specifically asked you to pick someone other than yourself. But, then again, why should he aspire to be anyone else? He's only the rich and powerful ladies man Adam Sandler.
Jack and Jill
- To conclude Happy Madison Month, Film Brain decides to do a film he's been waiting for two years to review... The Master of Disguise. He then gets a phone call that says that somebody else already reviewed it. The Stinger has him apologizing to Doug, saying that he's not actually mad at him.
- Reacting to an audience member asking, "Is he seriously breaking out The Godfather?"Film Brain: Y'know, Al Pacino's impression of noughties era DeNiro is absolutely impeccable. I can't wait for him to start talking about how he's becoming the Godfocker.
- The nadir of the "anti-atheism" humour: "John McEnroe gets so angry at people being atheist, he picks a fight with them? But that doesn't make any se—YOU CANNOT BE SERIOUS!"
The Shepherd
- When one of the film's characters gives a speech that seems to imply the viewer should go and play bingo, Film Brain and That SciFi Guy decide to take him up on the suggestion (with Linkara serving as the caller), finding it more entertaining than the film. At least until Welshy beats them to a full house.
The Devil Inside
- Lampshading his recent Schedule Slip, Film Brain starts the video like his Projector videos (since those were pretty much the only videos he was producing for the last few months). He soon realizes he's using the wrong intro and starts again properly.
- Comparing a possessed woman's Cluster F-Bomb in an Irish accent to a leprechaun.
