History WebVideo / TamarasNeverSeen

In 2016, Tamara Chambers, known for her acting on ''WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic,'' decided to create her own video series, inspired by her coworkers' and friends' shock at [[PopCulturalOsmosisFailure how few popular films she had seen.]]

''Tamara's Never Seen'' is about Tamara watching [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin movies that she'd never seen]] - typically either very famous films, such as ''Film/{{Jaws}}'', or very nostalgic films for her generation, such as ''WesternAnimation/WatershipDown'' - then describing her opinions and the feelings she had watching the film. Her cats Ike and Wendy appear as well. Eventually, she started taking predictions on her Twitter, where she encourages people to guess her opinions on the movie, and she confirms or denies a select few at the end of her review.

* GirlsAreReallyScaredOfHorrorMovies: Subverted with Tamara who talks about it in her review of ''Film/TheEvilDead1981'', saying she made herself like them in high school because she wanted to be the Cool Girl.

* FlippingTheBird: In her review of ''Film/BackToTheFuture II'', Tamara flips a double handed bird at all the guys being gross about her body.

* ForcefulKiss: Tamara doesn't like this trope at all, complaining about it in ''Film/TheFifthElement'' (and by extension ''Film/Ghostbusters1984'') and ''Film/BackToTheFuture''.

* ThingOMeter: In ''Film/BackToTheFuture II'', Tamara has a counter for how many times she says "love". It breaks in the next episode. She also has a "hilarious" count for ''Film/YoungFrankenstein''.

* {{Gorn}}: Tamara says in ''Film/TheFly1986'' that she's not interested in 'horror' movies like ''Film/{{Saw}}'' (she loves horror, just not the ones that bank on gore), and finds the former film hard to deal with.

* BuxomIsBetter: Subverted. Kind of. She wore a tank top during her review of ''Film/TheFly1986'' and was genuinely upset by the endless comments about her cleavage. She then pondered whether she should wear turtle necks for her videos and then defiantly declared she could wear whatever the hell she wanted.

* EveryoneHasStandards: When Tamara at cons says she loves all movies, Doug reminds her that she really can't stand ''Film/ThePrincessDiaries II''. She also hated the ''Film/GhostInTheShell'' film so much that she was going to email Channel Awesome and fake being sick that week.

As of 2020, ''Tamara's Never Seen'' has moved from Youtube to the Channel Awesome Website/{{Twitch}} channel, where Tamara livestreams films she's never seen before.

* ActuallyPrettyFunny: Tamara wasn't really into ''Film/TheDarkCrystal'', finding it boring and a lot of the characters annoying, but she admired all the puppet work.

* FanNickname: Tamara decides the shark from ''Film/{{Jaws}}'' is a girl and calls it Roberta. (the commenters all note that it already "has" a name, Bruce)[[invoked]]

* DarkerAndEdgier: In her review of ''WesternAnimation/TheSecretOfNIMH'', Tamara talks about how she grew up on Disney and loved it, but her favorite is ''WesternAnimation/TheHunchbackOfNotreDame'' because it took risks, and respects Bluth films for the same reasons.

* INeedAFreakingDrink: Neither Jim or Tamara are particularly keen on watching ''Film/HomeAlone'', and they knock their drinking flasks together in preparation.
* INeedAFreakingDrink: After watching The Star Wars Holiday Special, she takes a character shot glass who hasn't been "tainted" and chugs.

* EasilyForgiven: In ''Film/TheFifthElement'', Tamara is mad at Korben Dalla for forcing a kiss on Leeloo, but forgives him when he's nice to his cat.

She later created a second series for Website/ChannelAwesome, ''Tamara Just Saw'', where she reviews movies that are currently in theaters, often accompanied by her friend Cody Melcher. She also made a joke series called ''Tamara's Seen'' where she claims to be talking about one film she's seen but instead describes the plot of another.

** At the end of her ''Film/JurassicPark'' review, Tamara hopes to avert this; love every film she sees and be relentlessly optimistic. Even when she's not really into ''Film/TheDarkCrystal'', she still respects most of the puppet work. And though the tree rape scene in ''Film/TheEvilDead1981'' makes her stab the wall, she manages that it was entertaining, just with a ton of issues. In the Just Saw of ''WesternAnimation/TheBossBaby'', she's glad for Cody calling stuff out because she feels she always has to put on a smiley face.

* UnfortunateImplications: Like Critic, she's super iffy about the pure water nation in ''Film/TheLastAirbender'' being all white people and the fire nation being POC.

* {{Adorkable}}: Tamara's energetic and geeky personality is nothing short of endearing.

* BiTheWay: She's pansexual, and often makes comments about both actors ''and'' actresses being attractive.

** The joke of ''Tamara Has Seen'', where the title is one movie she's watched (like ''Film/ThePhantomMenace'') but she describes the plot of another movie (like ''Disney/BeautyAndTheBeast'').

* DarkerAndEdgier: In her review of ''WesternAnimation/TheSecretOfNIMH'', Tamara talks about how she grew up on Disney and loved it, but her favorite is ''Disney/TheHunchbackOfNotreDame'' because it took risks, and respects Bluth films for the same reasons.

* DudeShesLikeInAComa: In ''Film/TheFifthElement'', Tamara has a mini rant about it, saying kissing women when they're sleeping and so can't consent is only okay when it saves people like in ''Disney/SleepingBeauty''.

** Averted with "NOvember", as she knows suffering through bad films is even more fun cos she's so positive, so did a whole month dedicated to awful movies.

* MaleGaze: While she likes ''Film/JusticeLeague2017'', she's disappointed that it went from ''Film/WonderWoman'' with sensible armor to this film with asscheeks.

* MusclesAreMeaningful: In her ''Film/WonderWoman'' review, Tamara makes it very clear that she's not body shaming, but is a little disappointed at Creator/GalGadot's skinny arms.

* MaleGaze: While she likes ''Film/JusticeLeague'', she's disappointed that it went from ''Film/WonderWoman'' with sensible armor to this film with asscheeks.

-->My name is Tamara Chambers and this is ''Tamara's Never Seen''!

** Creator/DougWalker joined her for ''Film/TheTexasChainSawMassacre1974'', ''Film/Legend1985'', ''Film/BigTroubleInLittleChina'', ''Film/{{Highlander}}'' and ''Film/ReservoirDogs''.

** Creator/DougWalker joined her for ''Film/TheTexasChainSawMassacre1974'', ''Film/Legend1985'', ''Film/{{Highlander}}'' and ''Film/ReservoirDogs''.

** She did the 90s Power Rangers movie with Brad and thought it was safe to sit cross-legged with some foot showing. The foot fetishists proved her wrong, annoying her even more by saying she did it “intentionally”.

* MyEyesAreUpHere: Tamara doesn't even do anything {{fanservice}}y in her series, but because she sometimes shows a bit of cleavage, dudes will go on about her breasts instead of what she's saying. She gets annoyed by this.
