Poll: Nostalgia Critic: do you think he is funny?

[Erana]

Note* I don't like Spoony. His jokes are funny when they're written. However, everything that comes out of his mouth seems bland. It's only my opinion...Even if I'm right.

I like Spoony's videos, but as a person...well, I lost respect for him after the Transformers 2 review. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind his opinion on the movie itself in the least bit, yet insulting the people who like something that you don't just seems extremely immature to me. When anyone says something along the lines of "Liking this movie has nothing to do with your opinion", I lose tons of respect for them. I remember he did something along the same lines in his gigantic FF8 review, too.

To sum it up, he's a snob. A funny snob who makes videos I enjoy, but still a snob.

I just could never get past his snobbishness.
True, the first thing of his I watched was his FF8 playthrough, and I do have a lot of nastalgia for the game.
The thing is, I'm not a Final Fantasy fangirl. I can put aside my love of the game and admit its many many flaws, but I still feel like I was constantly being insulted.

He can be amusing at times, but I just don't support that kind of attitude, so I avoid partaking in anything made with that mentality.

Love the NC. Found out about him because I used to watch AVGN. Immediatly after seeing a single video I was hooked, his material is hilarious, even for videos I haven't watched. In my mind he's better the Yahtzee. Not to say that Yahtzee's bad, but I find his material getting a bit staler and the length of NC's videos make it more like an actual show then anything else.

He's hilarious, been watching since before his "Bebe's Kids" review when he swapped roles with AVGN.

He's reviewing the Bebe's Kids movie later this month that ought to be interesting.

EDIT Bebe's Kids, It's Animation...

 

[The Warden]

Yes, yes I do.

When my love for Yahtzee began to wane, old Doug was there to catch me. Long may he reign.

And all together now:

[HEADING=2]I was frozen today!![/HEADING]

[HEADING=2]Timing![/HEADING]

Doug is probably one of the funniest men on the Internet. not just for the Nostalgia Critic but I am quite fond of Ask That Guy With The Glasses too.

Also:

[HEADING=2]A BAT CREDIT CARD![/HEADING]

Doug Walker FTW!

[HEADING=2] OF COURSE!!!! [/HEADING]

and

[HEADING=2] BIG LIPPED ALLIGATOR MOMENT [/HEADING]

... although that was technically Nostalgia Chick's joke

oh, but dont forget...

[HEADING=2] ELEPHANT! (burger king king appears) [/HEADING]

True, but one must always consider the importance of

[HEADING=2] HEART! [/HEADING]

The only thing that can top that is... Chuck Norris!

[HEADING=2]CHUCK NORRISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!![/HEADING]

What could possibly defeat Chuck Norris?
Oh, I know.

[HEADING=2]MAKO!!![/HEADING]

Who could ever forget
[HEADING=2]DUCK TITS! WOOHOO![/HEADING]

I tend to enjoy him solo but I think he truly shines when he partners up to do reviews. That being said I do enjoy most of the people on his site, Spoony being one of my favorite for his written work and His Phantasmogoria 2 review, Linkra would pretty good if his videos didn't start lagging horribly, and Nostalgia Chick is funny if a bit weird sometimes.

 

[brainfreeze215]

I actually find him incredibly annoying. His voice gets to me, he swears a lot in such a way that it loses it emphasis, and his humor is very indicative. By that I mean he's the kid putting beans up his nose and saying "Look at me! I'm so funny, right??!!! Please love me!"

But at the same time, the content of his reviews is good. Which brings his videos up to a point where I can mostly enjoy it.

[DRTJR]

[thenoblegaunt]

also liked Linkara

Thx, I almost forgot him

 

[Jumplion]

I find the Nostalgia Critic absolutely hilarious at times. It's pure joy to see him suffer through the "bloopety-bloopety-bloopety-bloopty" scene in the "Good Burger" movie or the entierty of the "Star Wars Holiday Special"

Eww, why can't we see grandpa's hands?!

Bum is also funny at times.

 

[DrDeath3191]

He has the occasional bad week, but it's still an anjoyable show overall.

YOU MEAN THE 11th CIRCLE OF HELL???

i gotta say, i was crying from laughter after watching his Alone in the Dark review.

(There will be an upcoming thread from me about Alone in the Dark and other films popped out of Uwe Boll's [expletive deleted].)

"What the fuck?! You can clearly see the damn bullet never even hit her! Was the utter shock of being shot at too much for her to bear?"

Not technically NC as he was suffering from vegtabalism at the time, but still hilarious.
