Top 20 Angry Video Game Nerd Episodes

Even though the history of film criticism as a whole crosses so many continents and ideals and theories that it would take far too long to sum it all up in a single post, how exists within the realms of YouTube is, surprisingly, really easy to pin down. I say this because it basically all comes back to the one I’m talking about today: The man who decided to craft a several-year-long joke about just how seriously a person can take it when a video game is… less than pristine, let’s say. Even amongst his contemporaries, you can see the influence of this vitriolic foul-mouthed guy with a Jersey accent in their work. So, since this is my dedication to my critical influences, it’d be ridiculous if I didn’t highlight the grandfather of the modern video review. These are my picks for the Top 20 episodes of the Angry Video Game Nerd.

Pokémon The Movie: Hoopa And The Clash Of Ages (2015) - Movie Review

With how sequelised Hollywood apparently is nowadays, it’s understandable to get a sense of déjà vu from any given film. Or, to be accurate, to worry about getting that sense of déjà vu from any given film. If you’ve seen one horrible piece of fossilised pelican faeces masquerading as a love story, you’ve seen them all. However, every once in a while, a film comes along that offers a better-than-average chance of proving my assumptions right. And, of course, this is yet another example where I happily accept the idea of being wrong: The latest Pokémon movie. Yep, we’re shooting for No. 18 this time around, as if this franchise isn’t already reaching Disney levels of money-grubbing prevalence. Really, the best I can hope for is that this isn’t quite as crap as last year’s effort.
