Keep in mind:
- Sign your entries.
- One moment per work to a troper; if multiple entries for the same work are signed to the same troper, the more recent one(s) will be cut. For subpages that cover multiple works, it's permissible for one troper to have entries for more than one work.
- Moments only, no "just everything he said", "the entire episode", or "this entire work," entries.
- No contesting entries. This is subjective, the entry is their opinion.
- No natter. As above, anything contesting an entry will be cut, and anything that's just contributing more can be made its own entry.
- Explain why it's a
Dethroning Moment of Suck. - No ALLCAPS, no bold, and no italics unless it's the title of a work. We are not yelling the DMoSs out loud.
- Please no She Panned It, Now She Sucks!. Someone having a different opinion than you is not nearly a good enough justification for something being seen as stupid or offensive.
- Creator's works only. No moments on the author themselves or personal experience with them.
- emeriin: For The Nostalgia Chick, I can understand why anyone would be upset at her now taken-down video "Rapping about Rape". Unlike her other dark humor stuff, there really wasn't much effort put into it so it was ridiculously unfunny and her reaction of apologizing not for the content but for the fact that it was put up too soon, didn't really help. This ended up being an Old Shame of hers later.
- stacey: I hope this doesn't come off as too sensitive, but I was really bothered by her "autistic temper tantrum" joke in the Enchanted Christmas review. Like the Critic's, why was it needed? Even more bothersome was while people were angry with her, it was just swept under the rug and never mentioned again while Critic and his brother apologized eventually.
- Mr Media Guy 2: I myself was bothered by her overuse of the "How Could This Happen To Me" song in that review. It may have been a little funny the first few times, but she ends up using that damn song no less than eight times. As Doug Walker pointed out in one of his commentaries, you can only play a running gag straight three times in a row before it gets old, and after that, you have to put some sort of new spin or twist on it. Lindsey does not, resulting in me becoming frustrated whenever that song came on.
- SHAXlhzer: For me, it was The Nostalgia Chick's Transformers review. Now, before you start throwing accusations of sexism at me, hear me out. She didn't seem to have any knowledge of the movie you couldn't get from the Michael Bay movies. The first half is just her showing some half-assed recap of the G1 cartoon (with a meh-ish cameo by Doug/Critic himself) and the rest of it is just her making unfunny jokes and saying "I don't know what's going on" and "Yeaaaaah" (which are justifiable, but if you're going to review something, at least have some prior knowledge of the damn thing). All culminating in an unfunny Take That! at Michael Bay.
- bobdrantz: Her "Disney vs. DreamWorks" videos in which she states that Shrek was created due to DreamWorks' hatred of Disney. It's a blatant fuck-up in terms of research for this reason: while Shrek does contain some jabs at Disney, the movie in and of itself is mainly an Affectionate Parody of classic fairytales (as are the sequels).
- Eegah: For me, it was the appearance of Douchey McNitpick in her review of The Fifth Element. It's fine if Lindsay wanted to defend her use of the term MacGuffin, but she really didn't need to paint all the complainers as a bunch of trolls for thinking Hitchcock was a better authority on the term than George Lucas (having, you know, invented it and all).
- bigbunny: Her Little Mermaid episode is her equivalent of the Nostalgia Critics Wall video. It’s one thing to have a different opinion on something. It’s another thing to condescend and insult her audience and people who love this movie as adults. Not since Doug insulted Happy Madison’s audience and people who like the Beauty and the Beast remake have I ever been insulted by this.
- nerdrager: I love the Chick, but holy shit was her review of The Last Unicorn bad. It was half-assed, the other girl wasn't as funny as Nella or Elisa, she obviously didn't have much to say (she even said herself that she hadn't watched it in a while) and even though I usually enjoy her demonstrative approach to reviewing, there was no point to just walking around a forest obviously out of breath. Plus the ending: "Oh I found my bowtie." That's it? Poor showing, Lindsay.
- fluffything: While her Top 10 Songs About F*cking (In Musicals) was pretty bad to begin with, the real DMOS I had with it was when she talked about The Rocky Horror Picture Show. First of all, it starts off with "Sweet Transvestite", so you'd think that would be her #8 choice, right? Nope. Instead, it switches halfway through to "Touch-a Touch-a Touch Me". OK, then why bother having "Sweet Transvestite" playing for over half of the segment if that's not even the song of choice? Second, she barely covers her actual choice at all and pretty much just glances over it without going over the whole point of the song or its importance to the storyline. And, finally, and worst of all, she calls the plot a "tragic tale about a child molester played by Tim Curry". No, just... dear sweet Riff Raff, no. Dr. Frank N. Furter is NOT a "child molester" by any stretch of the imagination. As a Rocky Horror fan, I'm thoroughly disgusted at this.
- Scotie Rw: In her Loose Cannon of The Wicked Witch of the West, she talked briefly about what witchcraft was, and basically said women who did anything other than be submissive to men were accused of being witches. Yeah, no. Witchcraft was gender neutral. Men were accused of witchcraft too and killed for it all the time.
- Kizuna Tallis: I love Lindsay's work for the most part, but I just cannot let this utterly tasteless tweet
she made about Zack Snyder hating his mother and the way she tried to walk back on it by claiming that she was "just joking" and tiptoed around making any actual apologies for it slide. Even leaving aside the really bad timing (as this was tweet was made just before reports came out that Snyder was stepping down from directing Justice League due to his daughter's suicide) and her not knowing Snyder's mother passed away years ago, it's so juvenile and petty. And to say nothing about how she dismisses any non-white and female (and non-white female) fans of the DCEU just to paint the whole fanbase up as angry white boys. Definitely a low point she sunk to and admittedly leaves a bit of a dark stain on her, at least in my view. - JJOck: Regarding Loose Canon, I'd like to call attention to her video on Hades. Specifically, her segment on Percy Jackson and the Olympians. Any seasoned fan of the books would expect her to dive into the interesting angle Riordan took with his Hades, depicting him as not so much evil, but bitter about his estrangement from Olympus. The arc he and his son went through, culminating in their stand against Kronos, was arguably one of the strongest of the first series of books. So what does she do? She focuses purely on the movie, basically calls him lame, and moves on. Come on, Lindsay, it's not like you've never used literary sources in these videos, so why not this one? As far as missed opportunities go, this is one of the Chick's worst.
