7	!!This review provides examples of:
8	----
9	* ActorAllusion: {{Invoked\|Trope}} by the Critic, who acknowledges Creator/BenAffleck as the new Bruce Wayne (Batman) for 2016's ''Film/BatmanVSupermanDawnOfJustice''.
10	** When Creator/JonFavreau appears as Foggy Nelson, the Critic states that he's "Taking notes on how ''not'' [[Film/IronMan1 to direct a superhero movie]]".
11	* DarkerAndEdgier: The Critic brings up how comic book movies in the early 2000s went for this tone to avoid being seen as childish, and that while [[Administrivia/TropesAreTools some movies handled it well]], [[Administrivia/TropesAreTools others like Daredevil came across as mopy and repetitive]].
12	* EsotericHappyEnding: Invoked by The Critic, who says that Daredevil letting Kingpin get arrested isn't really justice being served, since Kingpin himself mentions how faulty the justice system is and that he'll eventually get out. (Anyone who's watched the Netflix show or read the comics will tell you how true that is)
13	* MeaningfulReleaseDate: The review was released on St. Patrick's Day 2015, so lots of references were written into the script.
14	* MissingMom: When the Critic suggests that the mom could be part of the reason why Angstine learned martial arts, she and the Angst laugh and said moms have to either be picking flowers or dead.
15	* MortonsFork: NC invokes this during Matt and Elektra's fight in the park by saying there's no way she comes out looking good in this scene. If she wins, she's beaten up a blind man; if she loses, she got beaten up by a blind man.
16	* RuleOfThree: NC parodies the dead parent trope by listing off three other protagonists who also lost their parents before just saying, "screw it".
17	* RunningGag: Copious amounts of Irish references are made whenever Colin Farrell's portrayal of Bullseye is on screen, due to the St. Patrick's Day release.
18	* ShoutOut: NC's response to Daredevil saying "Justice is served" is [[Film/ThePrincessBride "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."]]
19	* SingleTear: The Angst and Angstine go into this in between commercial breaks.
20	* TheBusCameBack: This episode marks Orlando's return after a long hiatus ever since 2013's [[Recap/TheNostalgiaCriticS6E6 review]] of ''Film/TheCatInTheHat''.
21	* WillingSuspensionOfDisbelief: NC can accept a blind superhero, but he doesn't believe in a lawyer who only takes innocent clients and considers it cut from that point on.
22	* WhoNamesTheirKidDude: NC wonders who would name their child "Elektra Natchios".
