Its a pretty dull and pretentious movie.

[Hellspawn28]

Signs is alright movie but some things that NC pointed out are right like the doors part and the Aliens being weak to water is stupid. Giving out the twist away earlier in the movie just ruins the movie. I think Signs is better then The Village which is not saying a whole lot in my opinion.

I haven't seen the movie itself, but the water weakness would be stupid only if the aliens were really trying to invade and take over the world... but for what I've seen we don't get to really know... I think the ones who stays at the end wanted revenge for having it's fingers cut.

I like it when Doug goes, "TAKE IT SCARY MOVIE 3!!!" then after the clip. "YOU SEE WHAT YOU JUST DID THERE MOVIE, YOU SEE WHAT YOU JUST DID, YOU JUST MADE CHARLIE SHEEN RIGHT ABOUT SOMETHING!!!"

I liked the review, but nowadays most of his reviews are nitpicking/saying things that he doesn't like. It's only really half the time he seems to be bringing up points that actually make the movie bad.

Uh, that's what a critic does. They nitpick and comment on things they don't like. If he didn't do that, he'd be called the Nostalgia Reviewer.

[XxComablack1937xX]

His review was ''Spot on'' for Signs.... it's entertaining to a point.... of course i laughed out loud when the Wood parts kept coming up... An seriously water? I mean yea.... if your weak point is water why the skreeonk would you choose a planet nearly covered in it.... Can't blame the Aliens since they aren't the idiot's that wrote or approved the script.

Well, in case you guys missed it, The SpoonyOne has been fired from Channel Awesome.

http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videol ... ne-with-ca

That message isn't really specific on why Spoony was fired. From what I've heard, it started on Twitter when Spoony sent a very misogynistic tweet to JesuOtaku which caught Channel Awesome's attention, causing Spoony to get a 4-week suspension from TGWTG for misconduct, and that if he insulted his fan base or co-workers again, he would be fired. Afterwards, Spoony went on a Twitter rampage, essentially saying skreeonk everyone and everything, including co-workers like Obscurus Lupa, Oancitizen and Welshey, and now he's been fired altogether for that. If you want more info, I would suggest checking out Spoony's twitter page.

Honestly, after how much of colossal dick Spoony has become over the past few months, I'm kind of glad to see him go and for Channel Awesome to no longer be associated with him. While his videos are still funny, his general attitude outside of his videos has been getting worse and worse, until it got to this point where he now insults anyone who tries to help him, even his friends. I will say he just hasn't been the same since February of last year, when he and Scarlet broke up, and it seemed to have taken a bigger toll on Spoony then it should have. Ever since it's just been all down hill for him. Now we're lucky if we get one video a month out of him. After his big "skreeonk everything" rant on Twitter and how he treated the reactions, I really don't care about Spoony anymore. It really shows that he never really cared about his fans in the first place.

I wish him luck in whatever he attempts to do now for a job, but I won't be watching whatever happens to him.

[Hellspawn28]

Spoony can be pretty crazy sometimes. He seems like he can be a nice guy but he seems to know how to control his anger sometimes. I remember he got pissy at some guy who point out a minor flaw in his video on twitter. It's a shame to see him gone since I wanted to see another crossover with the NC and Linkara.

[GotengoXGodzilla]

What's even worse is this all had to happen while Doug was on his honeymoon. When he gets back, he's going to be bombarded with emails, complaints and people wanting to know what the hell is going on, when he has no idea what's going on.

[Drewzilla]

From what I've heard, Spooony did do something wrong, but he admited he was wrong and agreed to being suspended for four weeks. Somewhere downt he line, Lupa and JesuOtaku got involved and they both got the same punishment. Things got worst and Spoony eventuallyh decided it was time to cut ties. Spoony, AKA Noah, has actually been slowly breaking down mentally since he broke up with his long time girlfriend over a year go, so much so that he's seen doctors about this. This dosn't excuse him, from what I've heard about his actions, he's disserved it, but it seems this has been building for a while.

As for Lupa and JO, I think this is where some injustice is. JO has flat out said she regret getting involved and has backed off, so props to her and hope she can do well the month she's gone. Lupa though actually continued to antoganize Spoony on Twitter and didn't back off, she more or less help excelerate his leaving of the site and has stated she's not sorry and won't keep quiet. I feel that since she didn't back off, she disserves to have her punishment extended out to 6 to 8 weeks, she really has been out of line herself.

No. Lupa and JO have not been punished for anything that happened, and they shouldn't be punished, especially JO. They didn't do anything wrong. The tweet that started it all was sent to JO, but she never responded to it or said anything about it. She never said anything to Spoony, and she doesn't want to have anything to do with Spoony. Lupa got upset over Spoony's misogynistic tweets and decided to speak up about it. She's not in the wrong, she just could have handled the situation a little better. Her heart was in the right place.

The only one to blame for all of this is Spoony. He did it to himself. He didn't need to have a mental breakdown on Twitter yesterday and could have easily just ignored the tweets that were bothering him.

Is the fourth year anniversaty movie finished? I wonder if all this will affect it in any way. It's almost like the equivalent to the thing with That Aussie Guy from some years ago.

The fourth year is not done yet. If the announcement videos are to be believed, they should just be finishing up the large amounts of graphics and CG that will be in the film. Doug is editing the fourth year together, of course, and he's currently on his honeymoon (has been since Saturday), so he hasn't had any time to work on that for well over a week.

I would say that we can expect the fourth year to come out some time around the middle of July. And yes, Spoony will be in it. They're not going to throw out every scene that has him in it. Though I will say that watching the fourth year now is going to be very awkward.

[Hellspawn28]

Spoony needs some personal help and I feel like I did lose some respect for him for telling his fans and viewers "skreeonk you". I have been a fan of Spoony since 2007 when I saw his review of The Thing video game and I hope things get better for him. At least his new videos won't have millions of cameos and crossovers with Linkara.

...Since when have crossovers and cameos been a bad thing? It's nice to see co-workers helping each other out and making other's work better and, in the process, funnier. Cameos are fine if they're used effectively.

[Hellspawn28]

I like crossovers but I don't like them when they over due them. Over using cameos to me sometimes ruins the video since I remember his Final Fantasy 7 video had so many of them and just ruined them for me.

The reason they do so many crossovers is, to quote That Guy With The Glasses, "People really eat that shit up." They've proven to be the videos on the site that get the most views, thus giving the producers get more money get more for videos.

As long as their crossovers feel like everyone contributed something, I'm okay with them doing as many crossovers as they want. These people like making videos, they're getting extremely close now (some have even started dating one another), so it's only natural that they would do crossovers and cameos in other producers work.

..damn yall. It's like a soap opera.
