Trivia: That Guy With The Glasses

That Guy with the Glasses provides examples of:

  • Development Hell: Blistered Thumbs, after spending more than a year with plans for a site, launched in the early hours of November 7, 2010.
    • Inked Reality has taken even longer to get off the ground, with no launch date in sight.
  • Keep Circulating the Tapes: Various contributors have works that aren't easily available.
  • Mean Character, Nice Actor: While their characters may be Jerkasses, TGWTG contributors are some of the nicest people found on the Internet.
  • Promoted Fanboy: Many of the contributors were already fans of the website and featured on Transmission Awesome's (Rollo T also being an example of this trope) Awesome Blog of the Week segment before being picked up.
  • Romance on the Set: Several contributors have gotten together over the past few years. Lindsay and Todd, Hope and Nash, Lewis and Elizabeth, and Allison and Phelan.
  • Schedule Slip: While Doug and some of the other producers keep a tight schedule, a good deal of the team only sporadically submit movies or anything else. Of course, most of them do it as a side project, not as a full-time job.
  • What Could Have Been: The Superman IV review would have opened with a green screen with Linkara at the Critic's house. It's mostly the same as the original review with one little addition...
    Nostalgia Critic: And where's my chair?
    Linkara: I, uh, sold it at a garage sale. Was that wrong?
    Nostalgia Critic: *shoots gun*
    Linkara: Noted.
