* In the Critic's ''Tom and Jerry: The Movie'' review, he makes a giant deal out of the two talking (and this was ''before'' they started singing). So, why is it he undermines the impact by showing a clip of Tom "Don't you believe it" line at the end of the review? He's pretty much making himself a liar by showing that the two ''have'' spoken in animated shorts prior to the movie!
** Ah, but that only counts as a one-liner. The movie just said, "Fuck it. Let's have them talk. Who CARES that they're usually known to be silent, with a few one-liners in very few cartoons?"
** Most of their dialogue in the old shorts were brief [[NegativeContinuity non-canonical]] gags or in an episode that's SomethingCompletelyDifferent.
** Plus, he says that Tom & Jerry had "little to no voice actors" originally, so he's probably well aware of what he said.
** Incidentally, Tom and Jerry both talk for almost the entire episode in "The Lonesome Mouse", which was made in 1943.
** The "Don't You Believe It!" line is sampled from radio broadcasts to American G.I.s during World War II; while they couldn't stop the Japanese from broadcasting propaganda, they ''could'' follow their show immediately with a rebuttal. Much like the "Is this trip really necessary?" jokes from ''WesternAnimation/WoodyWoodpecker'' cartoons, the joke was dated and meaningless only a few years after the cartoon was originally made, but at the time it was probably frickin' ''hilarious''. Regardless, it wasn't really dialogue.

* Other than just wanting three-dimensional characters, has he ever said why he hates bullies so much? I agree that [[FlatCharacter they're usually one-note,]] but knowing what kinda person Critic is and hearing how much his school-life blew, you'd think he'd accept that "nerdy creator wants to take vengeance against his former bullies" mentality.
** Mainly because most of the time bully characters in movies and stuff are just ''so poorly written''. They usually appear as this roaming pack of vandals who never do ''anything'' and for some reason their only hobby seems to be tormenting this ''one'' person for giggles, and most of the time they are never punished for it. Heck, they even pick on the kids who would be the popular ones in RealLife.
** The "never punished" part is probably the big sticking point for Doug. Anyone who's done even a little research on bullying knows that it can get really bad, but movie bullies get away with ''way'' too much. For instance, in a movie you might see a bully walk up to a smaller kid and just start pounding him into the ground, and NEVER be punished for it. No detention, no trip to the office, nothing. In real life if a bully did that at the very least he would be dragged straight to the office immediately. It's like Hollywood thinks all teachers in America are completely blind.
** And because the way you worded it seemed like you wanted an in-character reason, maybe he's good at compartmentalizing? It's really the only reason I can come up with, and I wouldn't put it past him.
** Actually, he said in his ''Film/It1990'' commentary that he knows the bullies are going to get punished, which is part of what bores him. It also bothers him that they never smile or look they're having fun when they bully somebody. Why bully somebody if you're not going to at least laugh? That's why he prefers the bullies Jack Black plays.
** I was bullied in school, but can't stand when writers seem to be "getting back" at the people who bullied them as a kid. It just comes across as petty and childish. Just because the Critic might have been a nerd doesn't mean he automatically sympathizes with them.
** I also was bullied in school, but rarely did it seem like the bullies ever wanted to do more than just beat on me a bit. They weren't angry, they weren't trying to kill me, and if they had taken it too far and seriously hurt me, they would have been scared and remorseful. Bullies in movies tend to be sociopaths who bully because they hate and have zero capacity for remorse.

* What exactly ''does'' the Critic have against Russell Crowe? He seemed to cast him in a negative light with the fake commercial for the "Russell Crowe soundtrack" in his review of ''The King and I'' and putting Russel Crowe on the "not caring meter" claiming it refers to "everything he's in" in ''Film/TheCatInTheHat'', but he never said why. Russell Crowe's a fine actor who's done some good films, I don't see what the problem is.
** Well, initially it seemed it was solely his performance in ''Les Miserables'', but in the ''Alien Resurrection'' review, he hinted that he didn't like ''Gladiator'' either. My best guess is that partly that Crowe has developed a reputation as difficult to work with, and Doug's taste in acting. That's not much of an answer, but there's not much to work with either.
** In the Sibling Rivalry review of ''Film/LesMiserables2012'' he outright states that he doesn't like Russell Crowe's acting - except for ''Film/MasterAndCommander'', so we can chalk that up to Doug's personal taste.

Spoony goes on a rightful rant about this really large similarity being practically dismissed. But isn't it odd that he didn't even briefly compare it to a similar reveal from [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIII a certain game he spent at least ten videos lampooning]]?
** Maybe he just thought mentioning a game in that movie review wouldn't add much? I think it wouldn't... I also highly doubt FFVIII was the first one either.
** It's also possible that they planned to, but it got cut either for another joke or it was just out of place. According to the Behind the Scenes video, there were more than a few jokes they came up with that didn't quite make the cut.
*** I'd say signs point to yes, since in the Linkara Blog, he makes a 90's Kid joke about FFVII
** I'll have to double-check, but I'm fairly certain he does mention it in his commentary on the video.
** He pointed out the similarity between ''FFVIII'' and ''Film/SantaWithMuscles'', because it was a plot-twist there. In ''Film/AloneInTheDark2005'', you know from the beginning that it's about children from an orphanage who were sold to a scientists.
** In the same review, they rant about how shooting the crazed, possessed dude, whom they later find out has a compromised nervous system, doesn't react to being shot. Firstly, being shot is in most cases not instantly lethal, lest to someone who can't control his own body anymore. Secondly, shooting him in the knee was a good move, considering that damage to the knew could prevent him from chasing him, despite that guy not feeling anything, and lastly, being impaled through the heart is lethal, no matter how possessed you are. Yeah, that just bugs me.

** The ''Critic'' installed the Nostalgia Signal, and for some reason he can't really remember why. No one necessarily said that he had to respond to the signal he'd established. Also, [[RuleOfFunny it's a joke.]]
** The signal also comes from ''his'' house, so him answering his own signal from his house may mean that there's likely a chance the Nerd broke in to fight him.
* Why did the Nostalgia Critic, Spoony and Linkara review ''Film/AloneInTheDark2005''? It is too recent to be nostalgic, they never make comparisons with the original games (except just a line from Spoony) and has nothing to do with comics (though there may be a comic book adaptation but is not mentioned).
** As they review wildly disparate things, they couldn't just do a video game, a movie, or a comic book- that wouldn't be fair to two of them. So they chose a video game movie, to be unfair to only one. They do not make comparisons to the original games for times' sake- the video was fairly long as-is, and too long and the web-viewers lose interest.
*** Just to add; Linkara also does some video game stuff (just not as high-profile as his comic reviews), so rather than being unfair to one of them they may have just just gone with the one factor that two of them shared.
*** The commentary mentions that one early idea was for them to review Bloodrayne, which has been a video game, a movie, and a comic book series. That would allow each of the three to contribute their own material. But the video game and comic books aren't nearly as terrible as the movie, and ''Film/AloneInTheDark2005'' was much better known.
*** The comic book and game being better are not cited as reasons for why they didn't review them - Spoony said he couldn't find the copy of Bloodrayne (it was a scanned copy on the DVD).

There were quite a few jokes in his classic episodes too. The question I have on my mind though is why he's so mad when a movie includes a real life product/restaurant/etc.? Is really that big of a deal when a movie shows characters eating at something like Burger King or playing a GameBoy?

** What the Critic was getting at was that the characters species are usually linked with their favorite foods. Bears like honey, rabbits like carrots, that sort of thing. The connection between chili dogs and hedgehogs seems tangential at best.
** "Rhyme or Reason" is an idiom meaning a "logical explanation". It doesn't literally mean a rhyme. Bears stereotypically are depicted as liking honey while rabbits are stereotypically depicted as liking carrots because both animals do ear those foods.
