Godzilla: Pros And Cons

Next Week: Trans4mers with the Nostalgia Critic! FRAK, YEAH!

Nice! ERod rarely has cameos from CA producers or appears in their shows, so I'm always surprised when he does a crossover. And this time with Doug and in person, even? Nice!

Though I think Transformers: Age of Extinction was initially supposed to be the 5th anniversary episode, not the 200th one. If I were to guess, I'd say the former one will be Dune}}, a movie that ERod described as the worst he had ever seen, alongside Southland Tales.

This is one of Eric's best reviews by far. The movie looks stupid, and in the funniest way possible. I want to find and see Dudley Do-Right.

It's here.

It's so cute how the boys keep trying to be king of the mountain. The video could have used more bum though.

I've seen it right on the day Miscellaneous Soup posted "It's here."

I liked it, but there's some stuff that's keeping me from loving it.

• They have nothing to say about Frank Welker returning as Galvatron? Weird. I was expecting Eric to rejoice for that.
• They didn't say anything about Rainbow Dash's cameo? Talk about a missed opportunity.
• They seem to have left out some stuff like Optimus basically saying "I don't want to live on this planet anymore" and vowing that the Autobots will leave Earth once they stop Lockdown and they also left out Optimus and Cade's pep talk. Really, guys?

And probably the biggest one:

• No final thoughts? Well, it's obvious that they hated it, but you're not gonna say anything beyond that? No pointing out any redeemable stuff? Huh.

But yeah, I still liked it. It's just those things that I'm having issue with.

I'm really not sure what was so bad about the fourth film to be honest. It was watchable and not as disgusting as the first three.

Update: In preparation for viewing his Legends Of Oz review, I am finally going to see the film. ^_^

Let us know how it turns out for you!

Bump.

Presenting E-Rants, where E-Rod talks about his thoughts on certain shows, unscripted!

First up, Wander over Yonder!

...yeah, that "Rants" part in the title is giving me bad vibes.

Its kinda misleading word choice since purpose seems to be just unscripted vlogs and he is positive about the show

I think rants can be positive OR negative, though that definition is not shared by everyone.

His word choice is misleading if he's positive about the show. http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/rant "to talk loudly and in a way that shows anger : to complain in a way that is unreasonable"

Well, "Rants" in the title don't refer just to Wander Over Yonder; it's just a title of ERod's new series of unscripted videos that are posted on Channel Awesome.

Eric needs your help.

I've been spreading the word. I even did something that I try not to do too often and asked Linkara for a retweet.

Are videos his only source of earnings?

Shoot. And JUST after his Nostalgia Critic crossover too.

He mentioned that the videos are his main job, so yeah. But at least his Patreon is going pretty well, with $591 per month now.

This is exactly why I never like the idea of only depending on new media for your revenue.

Ya know, I'm friends with Erod's niece. By all accounts he's a very nice guy, really goofy too. Her only gripe about him is that he doesn't like Adventure Time (which, to be fair, is his opinion, and I respect it).

Good news bad news time.

The good news first: the series is saved thanks to the avid fans who generously paid donations to Erod.

The bad news: Blip.tv has not paid many Channel Awesome creators for the past 2 months and will not ever tell any of them why! :O This is severely worrying for the business and they should all adapt to other sites!

Man, it's been ages since I said anything about Eric, hasn't it? I dunno, the more I think about the stuff about him that annoys me, the more I sort of disregard him.

Anyway, here's his review on Strange Magic, in which many believe is the one movie where George Lucas gives people more reason to think he's senile...maybe. I haven't really paid much attention to the reviews.

I haven't seen the review, so I've no clue what movie is he gonna drag to hell next week.

The next episode will be Top 10 Movie Based Cartoons.

E-Rod's thoughts and plans for Ant-Man.

TL;DW Despite how he really doesn't like Ant-Man the character, he still thought the movie was good and will have an Honest Review during the month of February 2016. All that remains is Fantastic Four (2015) and if that one is remotely good.
