History DethroningMoment / HonestTrailers

* Tropers/BigJimbo: After thinking, I'm replacing my former entry with the ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast'' trailer, which makes for a really bad viewing experience for me. I did get some laughs from the parody of "Belle" and that "wooly mammoth's shaved behind" thing, but a good chunk of the video relied on the StockholmSyndrome crap almost everyone is sick of by now. All in all, while Honest Trailers is normally witty, here, they screwed up and went for some ''very'' tedious jokes.

* [=SenorCornholio=]: And here, I thought their VideoGame/BanjoKazooie video was bad; they had yet to show their true BiasSteamroller until their video on ''VideoGame/CrashBandicoot''. Sweet merciful Aku Aku, was this an embarrassment. You know the usual complaints that "this game probably won't be as good as you remember, and it's most likely gonna suck now that you're older"? You know, the kind of mentality that ends up becoming a SelfFulfillingProphecy? Nowhere is that anymore obvious than it is, here; they call the linear platforming of these games far inferior to VideoGame/SuperMario64's perfecting of the 3D formula months earlier despite the two games being uniquely different, they compare the basic plot to ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog'' or ''VideoGame/MegaMan1'' (Sonic, I can understand, but ''Furry Megaman''? Really?), and they pretty much say, flat-out, that "classic doesn't always mean better" while also stating that the very re-release of the original trilogy gave Accolade the idea to revive VideoGame/{{Bubsy}} instead of other factors like, say, its ironic fandom. Honestly, you know the episode's going to be bad when it starts off mentioning Creator/NaughtyDog's other works, ''VideoGame/{{Uncharted}}'' and ''VideoGame/TheLastOfUs'', and then cut to Crash and immediately have nothing good to say about him despite the huge fanbase this franchise had garnered back then, and the constant clamoring for Sony to bring him back. Also, am I the only one who finds it extremely hypocritical that these guys would throw these games under the bus for not being as good as ''Super Mario 64'', but ''Banjo-Kazooie'' gets a bad rep from them for being too similar in their eyes? At this point, I shouldn't be surprised if they botch up a video of Franchise/SpyroTheDragon in this regard. I'm just gonna avoid them from now on, if I can help it...

* Alan Palgut: I am not among these people, but the trailer for WesternAnimation/TheLionKing has received some negative comments about Disney's "downfall" in the latter half of TheNineties on [=YouTube=], and these people considered the trailer a [=DMOS=] by declaring the five entries that followed ''[=TLK=]'' to be "classics."

* Tropers/{{Igordebraga}}: I was already really bothered by the trailer for ''Cruella'' thinking all she had was the original cartoon (as if the movie didn't get [[Film/OneHundredAndOneDalmatians a live action adaptation starring an Oscar nominee]], decades before it became the norm for Disney). And then much of the MCU's recent batch chooses the wrong ways to AccentuateTheNegative, continuing to treat Hawkeye as worthless in the trailer for his show, not being that harsh to ''Eternals'' while being excessively so to ''Multiverse of Madness''... and then ''Thor: Love and Thunder'' does a montage of "villains who are right, but Marvel heroes only fight to preserve the status quo" with '''Hela''', Vulture, Killmonger, and Ghost. In reverse order: AntiVillain, TragicVillain, PunchClockVillain... and sociopathic OmnicidalManiac. Way to miss the point here, specially as they never claimed such a thing in the ''Ragnarok'' Honest Trailer, ''exactly because Hela is not a defensible villain''. She embodies EvilIsCool, and the part about Asgard trying to cover up their warmongering past wasn't wrong, but her motives and methods are just cruel and evil.

* Tropers/TrueGenesis24: When the Honest Trailer for ''Film/WonderWoman1984'' introduced Barbara Minerva, they proceed to mock her clumsiness by calling her a "nerd". Hell, they even boo her repeatedly, which will ''never'' be right in any way. Yes, I understand that they were trying to mock the movie's tendency to portray these habits as a bad thing. But in this moment, [[HeWhoFightsMonsters they became just as worse as them]] by needlessly bullying anyone watching this video who can relate to Barbara.

* Tropers/Erin582: While for the most part, I am a fan of Honest Trailers, there are times when I question the obvious bias or otherwise they have during their trailers, such as giving [[CreatorsPet excessive praise]] to a creator/project that is divisive at best, going after an actor's looks or age or just downright baiting (i.e., in their ''Series/{{Entourage}}'' trailer when they made it a point of bringing up the fact the series features no black people, which makes me wonder "Just who exactly is your audience?") However, what I consider to be their [=DMOS=] moment was their ''Film/TheWolfOfWallStreet'' trailer, which should be renamed ''Yet Another Person Complaining Over Why'' ''Creator/LeonardoDiCaprio'' ''Doesn't Have An Oscar'' and in particular the ending. Upon looking at the trailer and bemoaning the fact that Creator/MatthewMcConaughey has one, I thought, fair enough, whatever, but what really aggravated me was at the end how they complained about how several other "undeserving" entertainers have an Oscar instead, more than half of whom were women and/or black. First off, if I remember, the majority of the winners mentioned not only weren't competing in the same category as him, but a good number of them won their respective awards in years where Leo wasn't even nominated. I have to ask why no complaints were made about the people who did win over Leo (or ask more specifically, [[AcceptableTargets "Are they just going after easy marks that they think that "everyone" will agree with,]] [[ArmorPiercingQuestion or were they just afraid to piss off the really "big" names who won Best Actor?"]]) [[SarcasmMode And secondly, it's totally the actor's fault they got the award in the first place!]] I just found it to be just bitching and {{Padding}}, something Honest Trailers is rather good at. Plus, now that Leo finally has a [[PrecisionFStrike damn]] Oscar, the tirade is rather pointless in hindsight.

* themaniclandofpage: I understand that there are a lot of people who hate the ''Five Nights at Freddy's'' series. I may be a major fan of the series, but I understand why some people keep getting annoyed with the hype surrounding it. However, in an ''[[WebVideo/HonestTrailers Honest Game Trailers]]'' video about ''Five Nights at Freddy's 3'', the way he slammed the game felt a little biased, in my opinion. He mainly just insulted people who like the game series by calling them "dumb kids who still care about the lore" and even took LetsPlay/{{Markiplier}}'s comments about the third game out of context, saying that even he is getting sick of it when, in actuality, Mark just said that he didn't imagine a fourth sequel being able to top this game. I didn't completely hate the video. I agreed with some of the criticisms he had for the game and I did like the bit of self-deprecation at the end, but the way he went about this just really rubbed me the wrong way.
