According to some sources, it happened two days after he entered the hall of fame. Some people are claiming that it's part of a storyline.

I don't think WWE would put this on their site if it was just a storyline: http://www.wwe.com/inside/ultimate-warrior-passes-away-26223975

lol. Spoony did "Correction" video. I was wondering why he would do another video so fast considering that reviewers usually don't do that since small mistakes happen... Then I saw the video and the glory of stupidity and now I understand why he had to do a new video XD

For those too lazy to check: He had missed that the reason why crossbow didn't fire was because the villain was trying to use his missing fingers to pull the trigger. That is so gloriously stupid that no wonder he felt need to do correction video Well, I suppose it could have been a phantom limb thing but you'd think he remembers that he is missing fingers

Did anyone else find it really eye-rollingly stupid that he had that whole protracted vomit/horror reaction for the brothers pretending to kiss?

I'm not sure "eye-rollingly stupid" would be the term I'd use, but I do find these kinds of jokes annoying. Both Spoony and the Nostalgia Critic tend to make jokes where they act exaggeratedly repulsed and nauseated by the sight of any male nudity or homoeroticism in the films (Spoony has done it at least twice with Reb Brown, and NC's Tank Girl had one really uncomfortable instance of such a joke where he expressed hope that the film's female director wasn't "horny as hell"), and I can't help but find it kind of sexist, especially considering their liberal use of Girl on Girl Is Hot jokes. I'm not sure it even makes sense - I'm a straight guy myself, and I've never had this kind of intensely horrified reaction to seeing a naked guy. I'm sure it's note done maliciously, but I just don't find this joke very funny.

The joke was about the fact the actors and characters are BROTHERS. I am a black gay man and was laughing and disgusted at the same time.

But it was the most tepid, nothing, barely-above-eskimo-kiss contact. It's not like the brothers were making out or supposed to be lovers. It was "Oh shit! Look less suspicious! Do something that'll make him stop looking!"

That being said, "HUUURRRRR" is the hardest I've laughed at any Spoony Review in a while.

Besides, Spoony's reacted pretty much the exact same way to Reb Brown getting naked in the past.

And yes, it was still a good video, one of Spoony's funnier reviews in a while.

Spurred on by Riff Trax going after the lowest of hanging fruit, Spoony has posted his thoughts.

It's not even a low-hanging fruit: It's like someone specifically bred a type of tree that only grows fruit at eye-level. Or going for a fruit in your local supermarket.

The only way to review a film like that is by talking about how much the film succeeds at being entertainingly bad. Simply pointing out that ridiculous shit is happening isn't going to work.

I disagree with the Snakes on a Plane comparison. SOAP is purposely silly and stupid, but it's not trying to be seen as a bad film, or at least not "bad" in the same sense that the Asylum films are made. Though I agree that it would be stupid to review it in the same way that Doug reviewed Last Action Hero.

I've never posted in this thread, but I was curious.

Does anyone else wish Spoony would bring FMV Hell back(or at least start LPing old/obscure/weird games in general again?) I think he did a review of X-Files: Resist or Serve so it would be cool if he LP'd the old X-Files FMV game for FMV Hell.
