I dont think I ever watched Nostalgia Critic. What does he do ? Someone feed me the info im to lazy to look it up and crave human interaction even if its through the internet.
What I know mostly comes from the Folding Ideas video about him.
Most replayed part
Nostalgia Critic: I have become comfortably dumb.
Dan Olson: And, you know what, I’m not going to disagree. You said it, man. I don’t know if it works as self-deprecating humour because I don’t think it’s comedically true, I think it’s just true.
— "The Nostalgia Critic and The Wall", 34:28
"Doug wants to be a filmmaker, he wants to make art, but he can't, because he's a fundamentally incurious person who isn't much interested in what other people think or feel and all his ideas boil down to "What if Batman met Mario?"."
"Like The Room, it's a deeply cynical product made by a fundamentally untalented man, bored by the idea of personal growth, building so many layers of self-protective irony that it becomes unintentionally revealing."
Brutal.
I remember having to pause the video after that second bit. The piled-on criticisms, so matter-of-factly delivered, needed some recovery time. Your assessment is spot on.
I'm still amazed that video is still up, such a violent murder should surely violate youtube's content policy.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
He made shit videos that were like the Angry Video Game Nerd, but for movies. There was a whole "Channel Awesome" stable of YouTube video people making similar content that he ran (?) - there was some sort of small business tyrant shit going on, but I don't remember the details. He also made a bunch of terrible movies.
Thanks for responding to me. I now can tell my therapist I have regular contact with "real" people
Only difference is James Rolfe is playing a character. Doug Walker is just being himself.
Hilariously, most of the other channel awesome people have gone on to have incredibly successful careers, Doug Walker is still the nostalgia critic, and will probably continue to be until he retires.
