Public Service Announcement, the other film they watched that was a Will Smith film is not Suicide Squad.
Oh thank you God...
Many DC fans just took a huge sigh of relief just now.
Noctis114 But wait…how do we know they're not just giving this disclaimer because they don't want to get in trouble with WB?
Oh Thank Goodness oh the meltdowns lol
Well that would suck hard.
All in all this coming Tuesday's gonna be a doozy once the review embargo lifts.
Perfect ending to "Independence Day":
(Punch) "Welcome to Earth!"
(cut to credits)
"In........west Philadelphia, born and raised.....!"
Now thats what i call a close encounter
I mean…. Dammm!!!
I actually like independence day as a fun cheese movie.
Did you watch the Lessons from the Screenplay video? I personally felt vindicated for enjoying this movie as a kid.
+Min Ro no I didn't know there was a screenplay video.
most of Nostalgia Critic fans do, this is the one film that is the most divisive between him and his fanbase
Mars Attacks was the last good Elfman score? Um, Spider-Man?
+1
He doesn't like the Spiderman movies.
He even thinks the new Spiderman movies are better XD
+Miss X no, he likes the original spider man films okay, he likes the amazing spider man alot better.
He doesn't like the original Spider-Man films because he doesn't like cheesy films (see above video) but I don't understand how anyone can dislike the original Spider-Man films' score
+Electric Skittles can't stand Maguire. I want to hut the twerp. at least w the new kid he was likable. can see him pre Spidey in Doctor Who Daleks in Manhattan. never saw the sequel. missed it in theaters and then saw reviews so skipped it.
4:46 "We were too cynical." Are you saying there was a time when you weren't cynical?
What about Boomer?!
+Liverbird Lost World
Destructive winds
BOOMER WILL-oh...well...we'll get you another Boomer!
+Jack Wiesman AAAAAAHHHHH!
BOOMER WILL FREAKING LIVE!!!!
Boomer will... be saved by John even though it would've been a lot easier if he just sent Clark go in to get him, causing John to hurt his leg unable to make it back in time, but he stops Clark from saving him because he's an attention hungry martyr who doesn't want Clark to be outed even though he's going to just a few years later anyway.
As someone born in the late 80s and growing up in the 90s, I can honestly say i really like the Independence day. So much so I refuse to see the sequel, just because it doesn't have Will Smith. I think he really made that movie.
Did he just down the presidents speech from Independence day?!! Man screw that guy!
I gotta say, even for all its cheesiness, I really liked Independence Day. The presidents speech near the end gave me genuine feels!
"Boomer will live" is one of my favorite Nostalgia Critic moments heh. Doug played it up so well in that review. =D
Cool as Ice 2: Chillin' in Phillie, starring Will Smith as the Fresh Prince?
It always blows my mind how Rob can just remember every detail of all these movies. I love Independence Day and I can't remember half these scenes
What I find funny is how the alien special effects from 1996 still looks better than the effects in the 2016 sequel. It only goes to show that practical effects still has a place in cinema.
Independence Day is what movies are supposed to be first: Fun. Just like Commando, Robocop, And Toral Recall. Watch it and have fun.
*Total Recall.
ryder mccall Not all films should be just fun. I mean I love storytelling in films. But it wouldn't hurt to have a dumb film every now and again.
matthew Kellar
True: I don't watch The Godfather or 2001 A Spacey Odyssey to have fun, I watch them because they make me think.
ryder mccall I mean I like serious storytelling. I thought of at least 20 or 30 stories like as if their rabbit breeding. I know films are just fantasies but it's just fun to read into certain character's mindset. Especially the villians.
ryder mccall It would be funny to hear the Godfather say to his enemies, "I'm sorry, George, but the only crack you'll find has my ass pressed against it."
I am praying that the film they're talking about in the beginning isn't Suicide Squad
They released a disclaimer saying it wasn't.
I think it's something they are doing an NC for, maybe Seven Pounds or I, Robot!
Since they technically aren't really critics, I don't think they go to critic's screenings. I'm guessing Seven Pounds. Because Film Brain did it already.
My guess is Wild Wild West
I, Robot was awesome! I thought so.
I watched this in a film analysis class where we only watched Will Smith media; we gave this flick an (ironic) standing ovation at the end and during Bill Poleman Climax Speech
I could watch Doug and Rob talk about literally anything and be entertained. Their chemistry is just so charming and authentic. Hell, throw Brad in there and you have the perfect trio of nerdy friends.
"What's to talk about?" Rob's comments, 10/10, so perfect.
Brothers really have impeccable timing sometimes.
Is trashing this movie like the "in" thing right now? Because it seemed like everyone liked it when it came out and went to see it multiple times. I don't remember ever hearing of anyone not liking it.
I'd argue that part of the enormous adoration of the film when it came out was due to it being so overdramatically "America, FUCK YEAH!", which we all especially adored in the 90s. It wasn't considered as cheesy back then.
I like it as a dumb film, but it's cheese and poor cohesion is so obvious it's not funny.
I like the original and I like the new one, I don't get the hate to be honest.
I don't remember people liking it because "America, FUCK YEAH!" I remember people liking it because it was fun to watch. Sure, there was a lot of ""America, FUCK YEAH!", but I don't remember anybody giving a shit about that.
I loved it and still love it. I don't understand their complaints and this review is hard to listen to. it's like nails on a chalkboard. Differing opinions are fine and all but their reasons for disliking this movie are just terrible...
Also I love Randy Quaid in this film.... I get emotional at the end with the whole "You should be proud of your Dad" "I am"
My father would put independence day on every year.
Every single year.
Followed by apollo 13.
Doug, you should review A Series of Unfortunate Events. I'd like to see your take on it.
Ian Randolph Knowing how much Doug idolizes Jim Carrey, I can see him kinda liking it
5 years later......
@@Dexilan Wow. Time flies.
I'm the biggest moron for thinking Independence day 2 was going to be a good movie.
Unless you saw it.. Don't knock it regardless of how obvious the plot, gimmicks are, ect. It just might be you're cup of tea whereas it isn't for someone else. If anything? Save you're $$ and download it with the money you're already spending on the internet.
Independence Day was great in terms of atmosphere.. it might have been accidental.. the cast was perfect, and I loved the way it was shot. I also like the sheer scope of the space ships, and how f*cking quietly they moved ... it's an atmospheric film..
I enjoyed Mars Attacks too ... and yes, it was stupid. Stupidly fun? Absolutely. =)
I love that movie. The characters are entertaining, the effects are great, the explosions are awesome, and they’re some great quotes and funny moments like the mothership Jolly Roger scene.
Independence Day Resurgence was actually better than I expected.
(Jeff Goldblum was still the same)
Well this time he's pro nukes
👮👉👽💆💨🛀
+Thatoneguywhowatchesyouwhenyousleepandthencrawledinyourbedandstoleyourcookies Your name is gr8, m8!
Same with me, but there are moments that felt like the first film again which bother me a bit. But I like it as much as the first film.
I love stargate, especially since it led to the creation of stargate sg-1 one of the best sci fi series of the last two decades.
So are the "Real Thoughts," videos also a weekly thing, or are they just a side project you guys do whenever you're ready?
Description
Video description says every Thursday
It's a weekly show. Every Thursday at 5pm CST.
Did you see Suicide Squad?
You know, I have one question for you, and no, not, "What are THOOSSEE", crap, I said it anyway, well, basically, do you think you guys could ever have a top 10 list of everyone else's favorite Nostalgia Critic episodes, we know yours, Doug, but I'm interested to see what episodes everyone else likes the best.
This movie has just a "Merica! F**k Yeah!" feeling that drawns you into it.
"Boomer will live!" AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Gosh I miss gags like that on NC episodes.
Timing
Elephant.
A Chuck a Norrrissss
+Jason Cole Mara Wilson!!!!
So many good ones but I love the "I'm acting" bits.
BIG LIPPED ALLIGATOR MOMENT
Spiders!
Looking back on the first movie, I know that the characters are stereotypes and it's really cheesy. However, at least they are memorable on who they are and what they do. In the sequel, the new characters I found boring. Yeah, the action can be intense. But we need to follow characters that seem memorable characters whom we want to see to defeat the aliens. There were also moments in which could lead to emotional moments but they didn't. I've seen action movies that have emotional moments like Mad Max: Fury Road, Star Trek II: the Wrath of Kahn, Star Trek Beyond, Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Hell, even Deadpool, a rated-R comic book movie in which the main character who speaks in a foul language and has a foul humor can give a more emotional performance because of what happened to him. In the first Independence Day, even though they didn't do them very well, at very least they tried to.
"It's so pretty…"
*EXPLOSION*
I smell a Wild Wild West Nostalgia Critic review coming 😎 Please tell me that's what you guys saw
'They Blow Up Everything' is actually a great title for a movie. It is one of the first modern 'summer blockbusters' I can think of.
You have to be cynical not like one of the arguably great speeches in movie history.
The bits to cut out of the film: the slow bits where we follow the children and the wives after all the destruction.
I didn't take Goldblum's dunked episode as preachy on the part of the film but more as him losing hope and being wrong.
The movie is a product of its time and has to be enjoyed as such and remembered only fondly in nostalgia for its own sake. You had Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum at the top of their powers so you paid to see them alone. Their charisma and the effects are all we cared about and it was an absolute blast at 15. I saw it 4 times. Movies have to be appreciated in the context on when they were released.
Independence Day is a CLASSIC!!! Great dumb fun movie, with Will Smith at his most charismatic prime. :)
Rob is not alone. I LOVED Mars Attacks!, and at the same time loved Independence Day.
I've been one of those guys who said Mars Attacks is better than Independece Day to much long debates on whats better
Mars Attacks has aliens getting killed by bad old people music, dual role Jack Nicholson (both die where Tim Burton's one note from the studio was he can't kill Jack Nicholson), and UFOs trying to tilt the washington monument so it'll crush boy scouts
How do more people not love that movie?!
gotta say I will always love the original Independence Day
LOL that saluting man has made me do the same (but correctly) ever snice when I feel its needed. Thank you salute man very much ;) you have a legacy with me.
Wow, they don't think Sam Raimi's Spiderman or Independence Day are legitimately good films.
We need to get these guys and Moviebob in the same room together immediately.
Y'know, I've often wondered how that would play out.
For me, this movie is still a guilty pleasure.
It's funny I didn't grow up in 90s but I love Space Jam
I was a 90s kid. Space Jam was definitely my...jam as a child.
I think the president's speech is inspirational...
now now folks, it might not have been Suicide Squad they're talking about..Will Smith was in some bad movies like Wild Wild West or I, Robot, could be one of those
I like I, Robot. Okay, so it used memes from other better movies, but I still enjoy it.
irobot wasnt that bad. At least it had some decent action scenes and some funny lines.
It's Wild Wild West, there's no other one fits the description.
I enjoyed Wild, Wild West. Then again, I did see it in elementary school.
"A Will Smith Movie that they can't talk about". They could talk about Wild WIld West all they want. Suicide Squad, however, fits that description.
I think this movie just gets better and better with age.
Honest Trailers sum it up best when they say this movie was back when Summer blockbusters were fun and uplifting and nor dark and Nolany.
Agree. This movie,300,jurassic park and pacific rim enters into the category of films that doesnt make any goddamn sense...BUY THEY ARE COOL. They just need to be that. There are Plot holes and corny lines but...awesomeness !!
Guess they didn't like Suicide Squad.
It probably wasn't that
Why do you think so?
about 8:30 in they say they hadn't seen the sequel.
+Dillon Layton will smith wasn't in Independence day 2 & Doug said he hasn't seen it
In the comments he said it's not Suicide Squad
Wow, I never realized how much Rob sounds just like Doug before. I get that with my own brother, we don't look much alike but on the phone you'd be hard pressed to be able to tell us apart by our voice.
Where are the Steven Universe vlogs?
Same place the Daredevil vlogs are.
in hell
Just search "Steven Universe vlogs"
Buc Whovian I'm talking about for the new episodes
+MsFluffyninja7 click "filters" and then sort by upload date.
Did you guys see the "Really That Good" video on Independence Day? Worth a watch. I don't completely agree, but it was very interesting.
I always had more fun watching Mars Attacks than Independence Day, but I can see why people enjoy the latter.
Nice shirt, Doug! Did you get to visit High Voltage Software at some point? If memory serves they used to be over in Hoffman Estates, right?
I didn't like this movie either, I was incredibly surprised when they both said they didn't like the patriot though. I just can't fathom how a natural born American citizen, who is not a terrorist or terrorist sympathizer, can find anything wrong with the patriot. It was an excellent film. the patriot was well written, well acted, historically accurate where it needed to be, and an equal blend of drama and action.
I forgot about Mars Attacks. Need to watch it soon.
Independence Day is a good movie, why? It is has fun characters, nice effects and alien invasion. Who cares that plotpoints are pulled out of the nose. Ever since i entered the internet, movies i love are supposed to be sooo bad: Water World, Godzilla (1998), Independence Day. I feel like mostly critics hold that opinion.
The only part I remembered and thought was awesome was when the president asked the alien, "What exactly do you want us to do?" and the alien responds, "...diiieeee noooowwwww."
So, I guess we all can agree on one thing (based on what I have been seeing in comments section for the last 5 days) : - The new KoRn song kicks major nards! It's awesome! Just like this channel!
I like ID 1 and 2.
"DON'T SHOOT THAT GREEN SHIT AT ME!".
I dont get it. In the 90's this movie was such a huge and awesome thing that it was all anyone talked about. I think its great! Have yet to see part 2. You wanna hat a movie....Godzilla!
I actually didn't mind the sequel. It wasn't anything amazing but it was ok in my opinion
I love mars attacks! truly underrated
And I love the president's speech in this. idk if he does one in the sequel but if so it has big shoes to fill. Not only is that speech great in flims but deserves its place with the Gettysburg Address and Day of Infamy ;)
Been waiting forever for you guys to do this one.
"This is one of the last films to use real models"
Every Godzilla film up to 2004 used models
I think they had some dumb reasons for disliking or hating this movie. Especially their comments about it being boring after the destruction scenes in the first half. Not sure how anyone can just be careless afterwards and not care because they got their eye candy too early. is that all they care about then? At least for Rob?
now I'm getting further into the review and not understanding them even more... Why would you want a short 60 second scene with the nuke? obviously it builds tension and after that fact, it's like, now what? how the flip are we going to defeat these guys? why would anyone wanna rush thru those scenes?
7:08 Rob channeling a little Christopher Walken there.
If it turns out the Will Smith movie he watched was Winter's Tale and he plans to review it, I think I'm gonna pee my pants.
You gave the new Ghostbuster movie a good review.........
Gaming Galaxies Can't take dining advice from a guy who eats shit.
Gaming Galaxies Seriously? I have to explain this? That movie was shit. They said it was good. So they apparently like shit. Can't take dining advice from a guy who eats shit. You follow yet?
I loved independence day
+Xaro Xhoan Daxos but it wasent shit it was okay.
just means they have different tastes than you and are letting you know their opinions. you don't have to agree with everything or order the same stuff.
So is the comments section going to just be hate on Independence Day, or did anyone here actually enjoy the film?
I liked it! (And I'm glad the dog survived.) It's fun and packed with action and some really funny and some really touching moments.
Spot of Christopher Walken impression at 7:08
The worst part about the sequel was that Jeff Goldblum & Judd Hirsch was not on screen together until the end. As they make such a great team on screen as they did in the first one.
Hey Rob! You're not the only one who likes Mars Attacks. I like that film too. As with Independence Day, I still enjoy that movie, even after reviewing it for my channel. But with watching it every 4th of July, there is an on and off quality to it, in that it would get boring at times. But I still like it.
Also Mars Attacks is amazing.
I agree. Also, I feel like they played 'monster rain' as children.
Thank you critic for finding the words I couldn't to describe movies.
1:00 I'm sensing sarcastic overdrive here...
StarGate and Independence Day are still some of my favorite movies as a child. Nothing to complain about there.
Aw, I actually really enjoyed Independence Day 2: you should give it a shot, it's surprisingly good with some amazing world-building.
The only positive thing I can say about 2012 is that the title also tells you how many minutes the movie is.
Speaking of nostalgic cheesiness, I'd love to see Real Thoughts episode on Saved By The Bell.
the green broom in the next room is really distracting once i spotted it
Mr. Torgue says "DID I HEAR SOMEONE SAY, EXPLOSIONS?!?!"
You gonna do the steven vlogs soon?
I don't know, but I hope so too
after todays episode.... STEVEN VLOG.... NOWWWWWW!!!!
Dude I agree with you. That was the episode I was most excited for.
Mars Attack IS A GOOD MOOVIE! It is build as an homage to thoose old B scify movie of the 50's, and it do it really well
i know is totaly not related, but , i cant see the videos of power rangers in linkara's site atop the 4 wall , someone can explain to me? i keep getting the error "invalid licesnce key"
i found it,, my clock in the pc , was ahead 1 month , just set the normal date and works fine
I feel like Independence Day was the first class B movie when such things were rare but that resurgence suffered since we're used to them now.
There are people who don't like Mars Attacks? What is wrong with them?
2012 was the theme of my homecoming and we watched 2012 the night the world was supposed to end
Why isn't there a 5 year annual Jeff Goldbloom vocal impersonators' convention?
Real Thoughts on either Full House or the Indiana Jones movies.
Those two are the ones I want to see.
I loved that movie. BUt I was ten at the time. WHen it came out on VHS we got it for CHristmas and literally watched it every night for a week straight.
Honestly I only recently watched Stargate and I personally felt the movie was going to be so much better...and then they reached the other side of the Stargate and my opinions soon changed. Seriously, it's a gate that takes them to another planet in another galaxy and what does the planets landscape look like? Egypt with a couple of extra moons that look remarkably like our moon (same colour and everything). I mean sure Star Wars did something similar by having a lot of scenes set in real places on Earth but they at least had the decency to make sure there was something alien about the landscapes
People don't like Mars Attacks?
That surprises me, because I always really enjoyed it.
It's filth.
There's one Roland Emmerich movie that everyone seems to forget about (whether that's a good thing or bad thing is up to you), and that's "Eight Legged Freaks". seriously, no one talks about it. that's just sad.
I enjoy this movie for what it is. A fun movie with great effects that's just fun to watch with family every year.
I brought my little sister to see this film as I wasn't all too bothered about it (although I did recall liking the first one as a child..)
The film was a pretty ok film. Not good, not bad, really just something you'd put on if you had to kill some time and didn't have anything else to watch.
I don't think there's anything particularly negative about it...standard popcorn movie, as they call it..
Real Thoughts on Stranger Things on Netflix, please? Or a vlog series kind of like the ATLA, LOK, SU vlogs? I just want to hear your guys commentary and analysis of the inspirations they draw from in the series.
