You sir, are a godsend for bringing this review back into circulation. I remember i was starting to fade out from ERod's reviews at the time, which is why i put that review on hold. When the Blipocalypse came around, this was one of the reviews that i failed to save, and i never got to see if it's as infamous as legends say it is. I specifically remember how someone at TV Tropes put this specific video in the "Dethroning Moment of Suck" entries. The statement that stick out from the user's summary was his reaction to ERod' complaining about Matthew's Gadget costume, and now that i've seen it in full, i can finally adress that context was needed for that situation. In the review itself, Eric said this was because "it was grey in the cartoon so the character won't be considered an Inspector Closeau ripoff." After some research on IMDB, all i could find that the quotation statement above was the reason why Gadget no longer has the moustache from the cartoon's pilot but so far, nothing related to the trenchcoat. I would like some help in regards to that. In regards to the episode, it wasn't as bad or atrocious as the legends claim it was, it was the average Blockbuster Buster episode post Episode I (his 100th episode). Most of his comparisons to the cartoon were valid for the most part, even though that argument got repetitive quickly. Not to mention the film has a lot more wrong in it beyond not being faithful to the original. I COULD complain how come he's so forgiving for most modern MCU films for doing the exact same thing this movie did, but that's not here nor there. Once more, thank you very much. This still counts as valuable material pertaining the Blockbuster Buster. If you see another missing review from his, keep circulating the links!
Wow, the first erod video I’ve seen in a long time, and it’s literally the same movie as the first ever nostalgia critic video I saw a decade ago in February.
Things they got wrong count 1: 6:22 (wrong part) 2: 8:22 (It’s not wowser, it’s wowsers!) 3: 8:37 (that’s not the guy who gave Gadget his gadgets, it has always Professor Von Slickstein or Stain, Depending what you’re watching. Not Professor Bradford.) 4: 9:20 (They never show Dr. Claw’s face!) 5: 10:20 (That is not the claw he wears in the cartoon) 6: 11:09 (Police Chief Quimby? Chief Quimby was not a police officer, he was the chief executive of a secret Government organization called HQ. Inspector Gadget is not a police officer, he’s a secret agent!) 7: 12:11 (The gadget suit is not Beige and brown. it’s grey! It has always been grey! It has always been grey so he wouldn’t look like an Inspector Clouseau rip off) 8: 13:16 (The Gadget Mobile) 9: 18:10 (Riverton?! Inspector Gadget doesn’t live in Riverton, he lives in Metro City!) 10: 18:53 (Later, Penny) 11: 21:00 (It’s go go gadget copter, not chopper!) 12: 21:40 (He defeated the bad guy on purpose?!)
I wouldn’t hate a ton of the changes if they were executed well- Gadget being semi-competent, showing Claw’s face, etc. Again, IF THEY WERE EXECUTED WELL. And BTW, Quimby WAS the Chief of Police, and Gadget WAS a cop, not a secret agent. And why is it okay they changed the guy who gave Gadget his gadgets in the 2015 series but not in the movie?
Nostalgia critic created these weird ass clones that tried to give a movie review video a plot. Makes me cringe knowing I almost became this until I realized I could do impressions.
13:03 Nostalgia Critic: Okay. WHY would anyone put that much toothpaste inside of him? I mean, how many emergencies require toothpaste...and why a hose? Is there really a situation where you need to shoot toothpaste from a hose? And why did it come out when he said “oil slick?” AND WHY THE FUCK CAN WE SEE DR. CLAW?!
Never realized how much of a hypocrite he is . Rips this movie to shreds for not being faithful but not Marvel movies for doing the exact same thing. Even defends awful movies that he's biased towards.
Since this live action movie got a lot of things wrong about Inspector gadget maybe they’ll get things right one day when they make an inspector gadget, live action TV show cause sometimes when they may adapt a cartoon into a live action movie and get things wrong. They get right when they fix things by turning into a live action TV show yeah Inspector gadget in this movie isn’t dumb enough. In fact, he’s a lot smarter the second live action movie they got things right by making him dumber. And the second movie they make Dr. claw voice sounds like Dr. claw.
The second movie is better! We never saw Claw's face, he's always in the shadows; his henchemens are funny, the cartoony humor worked, the robot girl is likable and her romance with gadget is cute, Penny is proactive and brave. I prefer Inspector gadget 2 than this abomination. At least, IG 2 is entertaining 🙂
12:11 Okay, so I have an honest question real quick, don't mean to get heated here, but...WHO CARES?!? Who honestly gives a s$#& about the color of his trenchcoat? How does that impact the film in any way whatsoever? What does a somewhat different name for a character, a different type of robotic hand, or someone's new job profession have to do with the quality of writing, acting, or cinematography of the movie we are watching now? Say what you will about Doug, but when he reviewed this film, he looked at it's merits as a FILM! Meanwhile, a majority of these complaints he focuses on come off as nothing more than petty squabbles and nitpicks that both older audiences won't care about because they have more important stuff in their lives to worry about than some changeups to details from a cartoon they watched in the 80s and younger audiences wont care about because they likely haven't even seen the show before. I'm sorry about the tirade, but dang this is a constant problem I have with Eric's reviews as a whole. I used to watch them a lot as a kid, but seeing them now as I get older, these "critiques" come off more as childish grievances from someone who hasn't grown up yet.
That’s because Eric Rodriguez and Doug Walker are playing characters. The Nostalgia Critic’s criticisms reflect his nostalgia for movies & shows, where the Blockbuster Buster’s criticisms represents any fan who hates a movie based on something they loved from their childhood. No old or younger audience would care about the movie, but the point of reviews are supposed to make people care & realized the movies they watched aren’t as good as they remember compared to the source material. That said, Reviewers do have problems with themselves.
Ok of course There had Too Be some changes to Dr Claw Origin And That's The problem Dr claw has NO Origin mush as we love him in the cartoon It never tales Us about his motivations Or why he's Evil He's jus an enigma
Inspector Gadget movie is 25 years old I remember the toys from Burger King, funny enough so many kids searched for them all even going to different states and being interviewed The song by Youngstown is very good and it was from their debut album Get Smart actor Don Adams did the cartoon voice Nostalgia Critic hated the film with a passion and it's a shame it led to a slump in Mathew Broderick's career It wasn't received kindly from critics mainly Roger Ebert putting it on his most hated list but made a lot of money around $134 million worldwide to warrant a direct to video sequel Plus the creators of the live action Aladdin are set to make another one Let's face it; bringing this beloved TV show to the big screen is as much of a challenge as anything staying true to the source material there's a couple things they got right such as the look, the theme song and some fun special effects yet the movie is the equivalent of a shaking keys in front of an infant's face just to keep their attention I like the actors though, they really look like the characters despite the many changes the filmmakers made; Rupert Everett plays over-the-top again yet he still has some likeablility as a villain, Mattew Broderick's acting is pretty much transparent, the best is perhaps Andy Dick who just plays himself a lot of the stupidity could've been discarded though cause it gets damn irritating fast some of the fourth wall jokes may even evoke a chuckle but I think the smaller viewers will find more appeal than the adults it's not God awful but damn, couldn't they have at least not shown Claw's face? that's the whole point! there are much worse adaptations so this interpretation of Inspector Gadget is the best there is

Oh my god thank you so much, I remember this review but I wasn't able to find it for so long.
I actually went into this movie not expecting it to be the cartoon, and I was 10 at the time.
Wow, the first erod video I’ve seen in a long time, and it’s literally the same movie as the first ever nostalgia critic video I saw a decade ago in February.
Thank you, man!!!! I have being looking everywhere of it. I hope you can find the rest of Erod videos!!!!
Wow, thank you for finding this! I haven't seen this in quite a while!
He forgot to say this message will self destruct
Things they got wrong count

And BTW, Quimby WAS the Chief of Police, and Gadget WAS a cop, not a secret agent.
And why is it okay they changed the guy who gave Gadget his gadgets in the 2015 series but not in the movie?
And i guess he never saw inspector gadget 2..which is a step up
I think it's awful I like the first one
On the bright side, Matthew Broderick has The Lion King (1994) under his belt.
You got that right
I never watched the cartoon when I was little, just the movies
Actually same here, I saw a few of the original when it was on Hulu.
Nostalgia critic created these weird ass clones that tried to give a movie review video a plot. Makes me cringe knowing I almost became this until I realized I could do impressions.
13:03 Nostalgia Critic: Okay. WHY would anyone put that much toothpaste inside of him? I mean, how many emergencies require toothpaste...and why a hose? Is there really a situation where you need to shoot toothpaste from a hose? And why did it come out when he said “oil slick?”
AND WHY THE FUCK CAN WE SEE DR. CLAW?!
I’m sorry I’m still on that
I remember when my brother, and I had the vhs tape when we were little
Thank you AstrodomeKid.
You're welcome! 😉
Never realized how much of a hypocrite he is . Rips this movie to shreds for not being faithful but not Marvel movies for doing the exact same thing. Even defends awful movies that he's biased towards.
It’s his opinion.
Also penny did help by convincing the guy to turn himself in and give up the foot
Yeah but it this were the cartoon, she would've instantly been taken hostage and need to rely on Brain to pick up the slack.
@supermariof0521 if not gadget have to save her, if not Corpral capeman save him and the whole world exploded.
Thanks buddy. Can u find back the reviews of The Host and Seventh Son, please ?

10:34 This claw he has here is better. This guy acts like it's not exactly like the cartoon, so it's bad. Lol - Luke
Its more so the fact that there needs to be a fine line between creative liberties and straight up disregard for source material.
I remember seeing it. Never know it was a lost media.
Him, Nostalgia Critic and many other people including myself didn't know this was the origin story of Gadget and Claw
Not very good ones
John Lithgow sounds a lot like Don Adams
Here’s hoping you can find his DC animated 2015 review.
This was some nice nostalgia, before the dude utterly lost his mind.
And people say Spoony fell off...
Thanks so much for this. Can you find Erods Marmaduke review.
I really miss ERod The Block Buster Buster because his Wife Marsha Died of Covid 19. 😔
Same here man.
I didn't know he was married.
I did.
NO I gotta get out of here
😬
i think there's more lost reviews of his from the old blip days i don't remember though
Have you seen the sequel, Disney's inspector gadget 2?
I have seen it and I actually really enjoyed it.
I am going watch Inspector Gadget 1999 after this video.
I still don't know how Pittsburgh City council allowed this movie to be filmed
I highly recommend the 2nd movie instead. It's definitely got problems but it is at least way more faithful to the source material.
IDK THIS WAS HERE?
why didn't Erod save all these videos himself?
Maybe he didn't own the rights to them when he worked for Channel Awesome.
16:33
LOL! i swear i laugh watching this
Since this live action movie got a lot of things wrong about Inspector gadget maybe they’ll get things right one day when they make an inspector gadget, live action TV show cause sometimes when they may adapt a cartoon into a live action movie and get things wrong. They get right when they fix things by turning into a live action TV show yeah Inspector gadget in this movie isn’t dumb enough.

what abouty robots?
0:54
By the way there was a sequel to this movie
And also if you want more gadget their Gadget boy.
And gadget and the gagetines were this was don adams last performance
And yeah Penny is now brown its blonde
12:11 Okay, so I have an honest question real quick, don't mean to get heated here, but...WHO CARES?!? Who honestly gives a s$#& about the color of his trenchcoat?

Mainly he's a annoying man bady that get mad if he doesn't get what he wants
That’s because Eric Rodriguez and Doug Walker are playing characters.

John Lithgow?
This movie is absolute abomination
I have copies of every review. If anybody wants to see one let me know.
I want some. Do you have the first reviews of Erod?
@@maximosalazar9985 Yes. Which ones do you want?
@@gamegeek812 Marmaduke, The Host, X3 and the fuck ups.
@@maximosalazar9985 Ok. I'll post links for you ASAP. By Fuck ups, do you mean the Batman and Batman Returns videos?
@@gamegeek812 The fucks ups I meant the BB's WTF moments not the batman ones. I also want the terminator 1-2 look back episodes and the terrible 10
Guess erod never talks about Gadget boy , gadget and the Gadgetiness (don adams last show)
Iron Man (2008),
Ok of course There had Too Be some changes to Dr Claw Origin And That's The problem Dr claw has NO Origin mush as we love him in the cartoon It never tales Us about his motivations Or why he's Evil He's jus an enigma
That or he's secretly the original gadget
@@dr.mixer8930 🤨 You Do know that's a Fan theory Right
Yup
Inspector Gadget movie is 25 years old
I remember the toys from Burger King, funny enough so many kids searched for them all even going to different states and being interviewed
The song by Youngstown is very good and it was from their debut album
Get Smart actor Don Adams did the cartoon voice
Nostalgia Critic hated the film with a passion and it's a shame it led to a slump in Mathew Broderick's career
It wasn't received kindly from critics mainly Roger Ebert putting it on his most hated list but made a lot of money around $134 million worldwide to warrant a direct to video sequel
Plus the creators of the live action Aladdin are set to make another one
Let's face it;
bringing this beloved TV show to the big screen is as much of a challenge as anything staying true to the source material
there's a couple things they got right such as the look, the theme song and some fun special effects
yet the movie is the equivalent of a shaking keys in front of an infant's face just to keep their attention
I like the actors though, they really look like the characters despite the many changes the filmmakers made; Rupert Everett plays over-the-top again yet he still has some likeablility as a villain, Mattew Broderick's acting is pretty much transparent, the best is perhaps Andy Dick who just plays himself
a lot of the stupidity could've been discarded though cause it gets damn irritating fast
some of the fourth wall jokes may even evoke a chuckle but I think the smaller viewers will find more appeal than the adults
it's not God awful but damn, couldn't they have at least not shown Claw's face? that's the whole point!
there are much worse adaptations so this interpretation of Inspector Gadget is the best there is
