Hilarious In Hindsight / The Mysterious Mr. Enter

Go To

  • In the "Seahorse Seashell Party" review, when Brian gets attacked by bees during the Mushroom Samba, Mr. Enter states that he will not be playing that Nicholas Cage clip over it, due to seeing it as a Discredited Meme. Fast forward a few months to The Nostalgia Critic's Wicker Man review, and Tamara and Malcolm, in a parallel to the film, play a cult that forces reviewers to reference the scene if they review the movie, whether or not they still find a credible meme. For bonus points, the episode actually uses several Nostalgia Critic clips. And then, when the "It Ain't Easy Being Breezies" (which has a scene of Fluttershy taming bees) review came out, the description of the review said he still refused to do it.
  • Back when he was known as Brovania, his goal was to Let's Play all 1001 games from the book 1001 Games You Must Play Before You Die. Now he hates the book.
  • During the "Top 25 Most Disturbing Episodes of Kids' Cartoons" video, when Mr. Enter compares the plot of "Return of the Raggedy Android" to Windows 8 (specifically the problems it has compared to Windows 7), he ends the comparison by musing "God only knows what problems they're going to make with Windows 9...". This came out before it was announced that the next Windows OS to follow Windows 8 was... Windows 10. Another bit of hilarity came due to reports of Windows 10 bricking computers after it was released.
  • When talking about child characters in his review of "Poop Doggy Dog", Mr. Enter explicitly used Steven as an example of how to do one well. This is pretty hilariously ironic given it was revealed in a later episode that Steven was actually 13 for the better part of the first season. (Although he was physically and mentally 8 due to his supernatural aging process.)
  • During his rant in his "Top 10 Worst Squidward Torture Porns" video, where he finally gives up in questioning the writers' logic, he makes the statement that he wouldn't care if anyone said a cat could breathe underwater. That video was posted just 22 days before the SpongeBob episode "Kenny the Cat" aired, which DID feature a cat breathing underwater.
  • In his review of "Finally A Lesson", he states that if the attitude of this show grew up 10 years earlier, they'd make an episode complaining about critics saying they're not solving mysteries with their talking animal sidekick. TTG actually does have an episode, "The Cruel Giggling Ghoul", that's basically Scooby-Doo but with the Teen Titans taking the place of Mystery Inc. And then a few years later, there's the episode "Cartoon Feud", which had Scooby-Doo guest starring on Teen Titans Go. The show is also one of the featured crossovers in Scooby-Doo! Team-Up.
  • At the end of his "Fairly OddPet" review, he cuts off the review a bit early with an intentional Writer Cop Out, which is Played for Laughs, by saying because Timmy wished everything back to normal, Sparky was gone, and refusing to accept any claims that he's making it up. Come Season 10, and although it came with another widely-hated introduced character in Chloe, Sparky actually was removed from the show!
  • In the "Where Are They Now?" Epilogue of the Truth or Square review, the demonic puppet from hell from the opening was turned into firewood. Come 3 years later, the Legend of Bookini Bottom Halloween special reuses the Truth or Square intro, minus the demon hell puppet.
  • His review of "The Big Switch-A-Roo", an episode of a television show based on a Nintendo game, was released on the same day as the Nintendo Switch.
  • In his Seth MacFarlane's Cavalcade of Cartoon Comedy review, he wondered if Seth was venting at Disney for getting some of his best writers to work on Phineas and Ferb. Disney ended up buying out the rest of 20th Century Fox shortly afterwards, including Family Guy and American Dad!.
  • In this essay about "One Bad Apple", he asks if the reader would buy it if Diamond Tiara turned out to have been bullied and was Easily Forgiven for all of her actions against the CMC. Replace bullying with an overbearing mother and you have the plot of "Crusaders of the Lost Mark".
  • In his Legends of Chamberlain Heights review, after complaining about how over-promoted the show is, he says that he wishes he could get rid of it and remarks that the last time he tried to get rid of an overexposed thing, it failed. This joke is followed by an Undertale spoof where Frisk meets Patrick, who plays the role of Sans. Three years later, it was discovered that Sans' voice was actually a soundclip of Patrick played in reverse.
  • Him referring to Teen Titans Go! as "Toddler Titans" is even more hilarious now that the show has an episode titled "Toddler Titans Yay".
  • During his Shark Tale review, Mr. Enter jokes about a crossover between Freaky Friday (2003) and Alien. The Bob's Burgers episode "Mom, Lies And Videotape" would feature an Aliens adaptation with a "Freaky Friday" Flip, making it the closest thing to an official Freaky Friday/Alien crossover out there.
  • In the Windows Movie Maker intro for his review of Rickdependence Spray, Morty's name is misspelled as Morby, and this video came out before all of the Morbius memes which often revolve around puns based on the titular vampire's name.
