Doug Walker (TGWTG, Nostalgia Critic, Bum Reviews, and other projects)

* Barney's Big Adventure: Apparently, Doug finds Barney too disturbing to review.

• My Little Pony: Equestria Girls: Doug said the show wasn't his thing, so I doubt he's ever going to review the movie. Besides, as Seraphem mentioned, Diamanda Hagan already reviewed it.

• Problem Child: Doug's not going to review this movie, as it's "a failed comedy."

• Yu-Gi-Oh: The Movie: Doug doesn't really review anime.

Thanks for the info. I had no idea he felt that way about those movies.

UP ON THE MESA!

I've never heard of that show. Must not have had much of a syndicated run.

I remember that show

except it was with mice

on bikes

from Mars

like some kind of Bikermice

(I think that one was more succesful)

Cowboys... who are cows? I think watching this may count as a sin for me.

That having been said it actually looks cool. I think with an update and less of a marketing mandate this could be a more than decent show.

That's actually really funny.

Thank you I'm here all week.

Remember to tip your ISP.

There was a chuck e cheese movie ?

I know that Bobsheux did a review on one.

Interesting note, it was produced by Funimation. Christopher Sabat is in the movie.

I was a bit puzzled by how he emphasised the silliness of cows being cowboys while riding normal horses and rounding cattle. For me it was normal children's fare.

I guess it's because I grew up on the Italian Disney comics, featuring a whole family of anthropomorphic ducks and mice, and every other character a pudgy human with a stylised dog's nose. Only when they introduced a new type of animal or a normal human did I notice. And they had Pluto, a dog with a similar head to Goofy.

Ultimately it's a matter of character design. Animal heads make for much more diverse looks than trying to capture the subtlety of real faces in a cartoonish art style.

And cows in the Wild West at least fit in thematically.

I caught a few episodes of this years ago. So yup, it was successful enough to be exported and dubbed in Italian.

Sure, anthropomorphised animals standing in for humans is common in children's shows, but the weirdness comes when they actually co-exist with regular non-sentient members of the same species. Same reason for why so many people mock the fact that Mickey Mouse has one dog for a pet and another as his best friend.

I remember buying that Chuck E Cheese movie back in 1999 which was my first visit to that place. I remember the pizza tasted like heaven and it was the best tasting pizza i ever had. Sadly, I went to a different Chuck E Cheese place in the mid 2000's and it tasted terrible.

Hey, let's review a Hollywood blockbuster written by a 7-year-old!

The video's now private, but I can guess that it's Sharkboy and Lava Girl. I remember seeing the trailer fir that in 2005 (probably during the incredibles, but I never saw it.

Okay, now this is weird. A ton of people on FB said that it's private for them too. But on my end it's fine. I could even replay it again!

The Nostalgia Critic's review of The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl, now on Channel Awesome!

That review is fricking hilarious. The acting gives him so much material.

Am I the only who feels there wasn't enough Twilight jokes?

Fine my link doesn't work but it does when it's on the main site. Okay.

Critic unearths his book of Twilight jokes from a drawer. ... Doug missed a grand opportunity to have him go to a door, input a code, walk down a dark hallway, go past security, enter more codes, open a valve, and THEN get the book. He clearly said he didn't know he'd ever need them again, and that he thought he "put it away for good." It would've made the joke so much better!

I can tell they tried to write and present Lava Girl as a soothing muse, but because she looks almost underage, it's just creepy.

I'm surprised he didn't make more jokes about the bad CGI, holy crap.
