Soldier (NC): I have no idea why we're following you, sir. Komodo (Me): Me either. I literally just walked in and declared myself the dark lord. I can't believe you guys are STILL buying it. At this point you're as much to blame as I am.
Never have I found the iconic line "Warriors! Come out and play!" said so hilariously bad, but god damn it, it was brillant to watch and all because of Angus Macfadyen. Every scene he appears as the villain is perfection. Hilarious genius.
Why do I love how the actor who plays the villain just doesn't give a shit about anything. He's always screaming, waving his arms around like a mental patient, going falsetto, and just bouncing around. He was the best part of this movie. I'd watch it just for him. Also, a lot of people died in this movie. And everyone glanced over it. I liked that.
The Kitchen Scene where the guy is doing martial arts to the food has got to be the most bat shit stupid and the most dog gone amazing thing to see happening at the same time..
I've had moments like that too. There was a cartoon I saw when I was sick, and happened to be that characters were suffering food poisoning in the episode (but they were also tripping and hallucinating). I thought it was all me until I saw the episode again. Made me feel better all that weirdness wasn't me.
I also thought that he's a bizarro Tommy Wiseau. Wiseau makes you laugh because he doesn't act at all, Komodo makes you laugh because he is waaaaay too much into it.
I was afraid that this movie might get it at some point. I feel bad because my uncle Jon was part of the crew that helped make the movie and so everyone in the family was excited to check it out and see it when it went into theaters. But... like the critic says, the movie fell pretty flat. Still super proud of him regardless of how the end product turned out.
At least he tried his best. Sometimes that's the only thing we can do. And when we fail, we learn, move on, but don't give up, I hope your uncle has gotten more gigs after that
LovelyCheesePizza Hey, don't know if you're uncle would care, but I actually liked it. Granted, I haven seen it since I was a kid. But I remember walking to my nearby theater when it came out and enjoying it. In retrospect, it was probably my first exposure to wuxia style. I'm sure it wouldn't hold up outside of nostalgia today. But for entertaining 90s kids growing up on a steady diet of ninja turtles and street sharks, and adding a brush of traditional Chinese martial arts epics, I personally think it did its job. Not something I'd necessarily recommend today, but I certainly don't look back on it negatively.
I would love to see a battle between Komodo and that screaming guy from Jupiter Ascending. "IT CANNOT... BE... DES... TROYED!" vs. "I CREAAAATE LIFE!!!!! and I destroy it..."
Tsumefan2 Nope. He was sober. Believe it or not, the crew of this movie allowed the actor Angus Macfayden (Komodo) to rewrite his own lines. Apparently, he knew the way things were gonna go in the movie. So he decided to do his own thing. Thus, becoming the best part of this whole movie.
I've kinda noticed something about Nostalgia critic and other critics like him that make a good point. Terrible movies aren't bad cause even though they're terrible, they can still be fun and often they're so ridiculous that you can get some friends together and laugh at it but when a movies boring watching it is just a fucking chore and all you're doing is waiting for it to end.
Hey, I'd watch a show about Hulk Hogan, Mr. T, and Bruce Campbell doing their taxes if just for Mr. T and the Hulkster. Hulk Hogan: Let me tell ya something, brother! Hulkamania's about to run wild all across these tax returns! Mr T: I pity the fool at the IRS who tries to take Mr T's money away from him!
I don't know about you but I watch that tax show. Ash: So what do I file chainsaw hand under? Hulk hogan: I think it's under prosthetic brother~ Mr T: No fool! you file it under household appliances! A chainsaw hand is not a prosthetic fool! I watch the shit out of that.
Screw a Saturday Morning Cartoon show, why isn't Komodo doing infomercials? Today I bring you: The STRETCH AND WRETCH! For thirty minutes a day you can do aerobics and puke your WEIGHT AWAY!!!!
Actually, "dao" is the correct pronunciation. The misconception that either an English T or D sound is acceptable was propagated by an English speaking author who didn't know Chinese, and assumed that there was a sound in the Chinese language in between an English T and a D. So even when spelled with a T, the correct pronunciation is "Dao". taoism.net/tao/how-to-pronounce-tao/
For those wondering why the audio sounds weird in this specific review, I think the reason was that Doug was trying out a new camera with a different mic on it. Clearly it didn't work out. XD
Anybody else think Angus Macfadyen as Komodo should be included in The League Of Good Actors Who Give One Bat Shit Crazy Performance? Or is he to obscure of an actor outside of this role? Also, you want to know how boring this movie is? They make Scott McNeil (voice actor for Yun) sound boring! Scott McNeil, the guy Bennett the Sage described as the Al Pacino of voice actors (see his Night Warriors review) sounds so uninteresting! HOW DO YOU DO THAT?!
Saw it in theaters with my Dad (who passed last year) the day it came out. Loved it at the time, bought the DVD, still love it. No shame. Angus MacFadyen as Komodo delivers the hammiest, most eccentric flamboyant campy psychopathic villain I've ever seen. He absolutely killed it. His character is like an amalgamation of Jareth the Goblin King and Kefka, and it's glorious to watch.
An attempt to cash in on the very rare venn diagram intersection of 'fans of the Neverending story', 'furries who like kangaroos', 'martial arts enthusiasts', and 'people who need a bland white kid in the leading role'. ...Which probably would have found more success if they're axed just one of those four. Which one? The answer might surprise you.
2009? Really? It doesn't feel like it's been that long, but I remember when this video first came out... Poor Michael Sheen. Who knew he was practicing for his part in Twilight back in 1997?
I think the guy that played the villain knew this movie was going to be shit and treated it as such. Let's be honest, even if he played a convincing villain, there's still no way a movie like this could be salvaged. The plot is absolutely ridiculous either way and the costumes of those "kangaroos" are horrifying. I'd take the job of a role in a terrible movie but I'm going to let you know I think it's shit every step of the way.
Nossie, old thing? This is NOT the Tao, so don't worry so much because they call it the TTtaouw. Also? The villain is played by Tommy Wiseau. You know this to be true, search your feelings.
In the chefs Defence a lot of Asian restaurants do have flamboyant cooking practices, although it does defeat the purpose of such performances if you’re doing it where the guests can’t see you. As for why he’s not in special forces two reasons, one: being good at martial arts doesn’t automatically qualify you for special forces, two maybe he likes cooking more than fighting
Holy shit! I used to love this movie as a kid, but later in life when I would try to discuss it with people NOBODY ever believed me this was a real movie. Thank you so much for this, brings back tons of memories.
I feel like they were trying to make Komodo act like a crazy person to make him more intimidating, like a mentally unstable psychopath, but as N.C pointed out, he was just friggen hilarious.
I don't really even know why, bu I LOVED this movie when I was a kid! I "think" there was a show on at the time with somewhat similar themes and I just WANTED it to be a movie based on that show, so I convinced myself it HAD to be good.
5:32 - 5:47 This is still one of my favorite Nostalgia Critic jokes. This is also one of my favorite review on a movie that seemed to come out of nowhere.
If the Kangaroo Martial Artists have the power of the elements, Fire, Wind, Water, Wood and Metal, where are the other Kangaroo Elemental Warriors like Snow, Lightning, Sand and Lava?
This was the first movie I ever felt boredom from. Usually as a kid, you rewatch movies all the time but I played this once and never opened the VHS tape again.
I had a 5th grade teacher bring this in and we watched it. I don't know why. I was confused through out the whole thing. I suppressed the memory of it until I saw Forest Gump on the last day of school in high school. Forrest inspires the shit happens bumper sticker.
I wonder what the threshold is between "over the top cheesy bad" and "okay man, just stop". Because his performance here was great! but in other films I'm embarrassed for the actor. haha
At 19:35, I feel that line would be more effective if he had a prop of some kind. Like glass bottles on his fingers he can clank together...or something.
I think the boy has been dead this whole time. He fell into a drain in the sewers, drowned, and this is all the afterlife. Another likely scenario is he is almost dead and this is all some sort of fever dream as his brain uses it's last burst of energy in a last-ditch effort to stay alive.
The bad guy is like if Johnny depp and Jeromey Irons had a kid who was Tommy Wiseau and he married the bad guy from Skyward Sword and they had their kid was the villian.
The part with the ape howling made me laugh quite a bit. Something about the way it sounded got me. I'd love to see an interaction between Komodo and Dark Heart from Care Bears 2. I'm sorry, I mean DAAARRKKKK HEAAAAART!!!
brainflash1 why is 'hour' spelled with an 'h' if it's pronounced 'our'? Why is 'sword' spelled with a 'w' when it's pronounced 'sord'? Why is 'Wednesday' spelled like that when it's pronounced 'Wensday?" yeah you check *your* weird language with words that are literally traps to anyone trying to spell/pronounce them!
I actually love this movie; i saw it in theaters when it was released for my birthday. Personally, I believe it's easy to tear apart most movies 20 years later. I'm sure if you look back at Gremlins, you could nitpick hundreds of things that don't make sense. However, looking back on movies from my childhood, I try not to take it in frame by frame looking for inconsistencies. I wasn't looking for logic in movies back then as much as I was looking for an escape from reality. In this way, Warriors of Virtue excells. Not to mention the expert level practical effects, character development, and an ethical message which most modern day movies can't be bothered taking time to deliver. I've never really liked movie critics or critics in general. They promote a message of pessimism and enjoy tearing apart the things I look back on fondly. I give this movie reviewer a 1/10 for inflated expectations and an overabundance of cynicism.
There were only 3 parts to this film I remembered. 1. The sort where the kid falls into the whirlpool. 2. When the villain yells at the kid for not being able to read the book. 3. When the kid throws the spray can into the whirlpool. That's how little I cared about the film.
Even when you have a boring movie, Nostalgia Critic can still make it less painful by making us laugh!
Dude, I died laughing at 12:45 when that weird yodel came on.
It was a LAUGH!!!
Yeah,especially this episode is one of his best!!
So true :)
🙂2019🙂
Soldier (NC): I have no idea why we're following you, sir.
Komodo (Me): Me either. I literally just walked in and declared myself the dark lord. I can't believe you guys are STILL buying it. At this point you're as much to blame as I am.
XD
Maybe he used his Nicolas Cage powers to take over?
If I ever write something, I HAVE to work that in somehow.
I don't know, having Hulk Hogan, Mr. T, and Bruce Campbell do their taxes sounds like it would be entertaining.
DarkHero Gamer sounds like a good SNL skit
Sounds good to me! Make me want to see it!
DarkHero Gamer replace Hogan with Rowdy Roddy Pipper.
Too bad Hot Rod is wrestling in the great ring in the sky
Metroid Whisperer Don't worry, he's kicking ass AND chewing bubblegum.
Never have I found the iconic line "Warriors! Come out and play!" said so hilariously bad, but god damn it, it was brillant to watch and all because of Angus Macfadyen. Every scene he appears as the villain is perfection. Hilarious genius.
Very hilarious indeed he is.

Also, a lot of people died in this movie. And everyone glanced over it. I liked that.
Maybe thats why I found him such a fun bad guy. He is totally over the top, he knows it, and he doesnt care lol
I lost my shit when he shook his head while screaming. You KNOW for sure that guy enjoyed his role as the villain
Glanced over, huh? IT WAS A LIFE!
Its like he was giving his all in this performance.
The Kitchen Scene where the guy is doing martial arts to the food has got to be the most bat shit stupid and the most dog gone amazing thing to see happening at the same time..
it's certainly more exciting than anything else in the movie
@@autobotproductions1244 Well… we can agree that Angus Macfayden’s performance as Komodo is entertaining.
@@eddieolshefski6467 yeah, that's true
I feel bad for the guy playing the Chinese chef. He seemed to really be trying and some of those stunts were good.
It’s not entirely out of the realm of reality as a lot of Asian restaurants do add a certain flair to the dish preparation
wait... You mean to tell me that this was real?! I thought this was a fever dream that I had when I was extremely sick.
Forrest Church that's what I said about TLC's old show balimorie but nope it was real
Kyle the movie.
Forrest Church yeah, that's happened to me a lot like when Doug reviewed Felix the Cat or Swam Princess.
Monroville no that's the one where my phone's autocorrect changed swan to swam.
I've had moments like that too. There was a cartoon I saw when I was sick, and happened to be that characters were suffering food poisoning in the episode (but they were also tripping and hallucinating). I thought it was all me until I saw the episode again. Made me feel better all that weirdness wasn't me.
Imagine, if you will, Tom Hiddleston playing Loki while having a mental breakdown. That is the villain. And it's beautiful and hilarious.
I will not
That villain was like the unholy offspring of Tommy Wiseau and John Travolta.
Jericho Jack lolz
Jericho Jack with the acting of Jeremy irons from dungeons and dragons
I also thought that he's a bizarro Tommy Wiseau. Wiseau makes you laugh because he doesn't act at all, Komodo makes you laugh because he is waaaaay too much into it.
That's why I said Wiseau and Travolta. Its like the perfect mix of Wiseau's lack of acting, and Travolta's overacting, ala Battlefield Earth.
No, just Tommy Wiseau not taking this shit seriously.
Oh hai Warriors! You are tearing me apart LOLOLOLOOOLOOLOLOLOLOLOLLOLOLOLOLLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLO!
Watching old Nostalgia Critic videos feel 'NOSTALGIC'
RespectedSalmon Thank you for that marvelous ending!
Almost 100 likes? Wow! Thanks guys, I'm finally popular!
Pine Cone Why thank you! 😂😂😂
Benjamin Parr Yeah that's what I also thought when I started watching this video.😄
Benjamin Parr I do enjoy reruns.
I feel like Komodo is how the Avengers see Loki.
Is that why the hulk smashed Loki into the ground?
Huh, who knew.
Most of the Avengers except for Thor.

I feel sorry for your uncle
LovelyCheesePizza As long he wasn't director, writer or producer, he really has nothing to be ashamned of.
What did he work on?
At least he tried his best. Sometimes that's the only thing we can do. And when we fail, we learn, move on, but don't give up, I hope your uncle has gotten more gigs after that

Komodo (*BUT... IT CANNOT... BE... DES...TROYED!*) vs Terl (When you were learning how to SPELL YOUR NAME!)
The final showdown anyone?
I would love to see a battle between Komodo and that screaming guy from Jupiter Ascending.
"IT CANNOT... BE... DES... TROYED!" vs. "I CREAAAATE LIFE!!!!! and I destroy it..."
ReasyRandom Komodo wins. because he can counter with, "IT WAS A LIFE!"
was the actor drunk before this movie?
Tsumefan2 Nope. He was sober. Believe it or not, the crew of this movie allowed the actor Angus Macfayden (Komodo) to rewrite his own lines. Apparently, he knew the way things were gonna go in the movie. So he decided to do his own thing. Thus, becoming the best part of this whole movie.
the ultimate showdown of ultimate hamminess
Oh my god. The villain is drunk Kylo Ren
Holy crap you're right.
Is it wrong if I say that the villian is cooler than Kylo Ren?
to me, it's more like Kylo Ren on a high with ever he is smoking off-screen while being drunk on screen.
Loki on Meth.
@@Rogue.Rainbow
Way cooler. Kylo Ren is trash.
"Excuse me, can you tell me how to get to the set of Tank Girl?" Holy shit, the best T.G. reference I've seen in ages! Kudos to anyone that got it!
6:45, And he later referenced THIS movie in the review of that movie.
When he sees the kangaroos, he says, "Oh my God! The warriors of Virtu"!
Doug Jones was in both.
I'd enjoy a remake of this film with more kung-fu, less talking, and the same amount of the villain
If there’s no kicking and jumping in the kitchen I’m not interested.
@@supermariofan03 and over the top komodo of course

Nazrat84 nice Prequel avatar
WOW, Ryan gets kidnapped in one story more than *Scooby-Doo's* Daphne + *Sonic '06's* Elise. That's almost impressive.
That villain... It's like if Doctor Insano took up martial arts.
Sojourner Dr Insano + Turrel
Very true!
"The circle of boredom is complete." Well, you *say* that but... unfortunately, this movie has a sequel.
Sarah Williams WHAT.

I love how Doug is correct about "Dao."
gamrage I looked it up a while back. "Dao" and "Tao" are both acceptable.
Except for the fact that "Daoism" is also called "Taoism".
Actually, "dao" is the correct pronunciation. The misconception that either an English T or D sound is acceptable was propagated by an English speaking author who didn't know Chinese, and assumed that there was a sound in the Chinese language in between an English T and a D. So even when spelled with a T, the correct pronunciation is "Dao".
taoism.net/tao/how-to-pronounce-tao/
It’s the same thing with names like. Nguyen , most people pronounce it phonetically, when it’s properly pronounced. Win/Wen.
only argument I have, is when he wont on a tangent using words that start with D, always started with D and sound like D...that was weak
Actualy i think Mr.T's, Hulk Hogan's and Bruce Campbels Tax filing would be pretty awesome
Oh shit, it's Wang from Big Trouble in Little China! I thought he cooked Cantonese food, though?
Popsicles Shubert
I thought he was a ninja who fought demons with Uzis and Ki powers
I'm glad somebody else recognized him, I love that movie.

PLAY-EE-AY!!!
MC Dexpo it always bugged me that more people didn’t get this reference!

A warrior of Virtue, definitely not a Warrior of Dignity.
The choreography during the fights were on point though. even better than the live action TMNT
They were actually super impressive. Thats one thing this movie has going for it.
Anybody else think Angus Macfadyen as Komodo should be included in The League Of Good Actors Who Give One Bat Shit Crazy Performance? Or is he to obscure of an actor outside of this role?
Also, you want to know how boring this movie is? They make Scott McNeil (voice actor for Yun) sound boring! Scott McNeil, the guy Bennett the Sage described as the Al Pacino of voice actors (see his Night Warriors review) sounds so uninteresting! HOW DO YOU DO THAT?!
Jonathan Pryce needs to be inducted for Tomorrow Never Dies.
Actually thought the monkey was a clip edited in by the Nostalgic Critic. That's how jarring it was.
I need a compilation of the villain of this movie. He is one of the best things I have seen in my life.
There is lol, search Komodo Scenes
Saw it in theaters with my Dad (who passed last year) the day it came out. Loved it at the time, bought the DVD, still love it. No shame. Angus MacFadyen as Komodo delivers the hammiest, most eccentric flamboyant campy psychopathic villain I've ever seen. He absolutely killed it.

Yeah, very boring.
A masterpiece
Exactly what you said; The hell.

it was a life!
It's a trap!

I want him alive aaaaaaah!

I think this movie is at least better than it's remake, Jupiter Ascending.
2009? what.... did youtube take this down?
Edit: wow about 100 likes thx
I think they're just getting old reviews on the new channel is all.
oh... well its still a good review
Agreed. *high fives*

"BUT IT CANNOT BE DESTROYED!!!!!............does purple suit me?"
"Yes my Lord."
"Then you are dismissed."

Komodo reminds me of Kefka from the video game Final Fantasy VI (6).
thebatmanover9000 At least Kefka was executed well.
This villain is amazing! If we could just get a Beetlejuice Vs The Mask Vs Komodo, that'd be greeeaaaat.
12:42 still makes me cackle lmaoo
I actually really like Komodo as a bad guy lol. He nails that insane psychopath bad guy and is just so fun to watch.
There is a sequel to this movie. It doesn’t have any Roos though…and I’m not kidding
No matter what "IT WAS A LIFE" chick was my childhood crush for a bit
"Meanwhile, on the set of "Dune""...
I lost it at that point. XD
Nossie, old thing? This is NOT the Tao, so don't worry so much because they call it the TTtaouw.
Also? The villain is played by Tommy Wiseau. You know this to be true, search your feelings.
2:42 imagine a world beyond anything you've ever seen. Think of a world where this movie isn't a boring pile of shit.
16:14 I just have one question.....WHY DOES THE VILLAN SOUND EXACTLY LIKE AKU FROM SAMURAI JACK?!?!?!?!!!????!!
SimpsonSouthPark Fan Nah Aku sounds a lot cooler.
I AKU WAS *ABSOLENFNMDMSJHSJKEKNENDKLYYUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!*

The modern day reboot by Paul Feig will be named Warriors of Virtue Signaling.
TheTwilitHero SJWs of Virtual Signaling
Seriously think this would have been better as high quality animated film in which they actually pronounced Tao correctly.
I also thought the heroes had that Ron Perlman vibe.
Especially since one of the actors playing the roos is Doug Jones

I just found out there's a sequel to this called Warriors of virtue return to Tao. and they pronounce it with a hard T sound as well
Yeah. I think people tend pretend it doesn't exist at least partly because the actor playing villain died on set after filming.
If the Kangaroo Martial Artists have the power of the elements, Fire, Wind, Water, Wood and Metal, where are the other Kangaroo Elemental Warriors like Snow, Lightning, Sand and Lava?
This was the first movie I ever felt boredom from. Usually as a kid, you rewatch movies all the time but I played this once and never opened the VHS tape again.
The actor who played the villain was also in We Bought A Zoo!
Does anyone else agree that this may have been better as an anime with a few plot changes?
12:43 what the hell was that, a victory screech?

I wonder what the threshold is between "over the top cheesy bad" and "okay man, just stop". Because his performance here was great! but in other films I'm embarrassed for the actor. haha
Am I the only one that loves this movie and thinks that it's an amazing film,Along with the sequel?
14:40 It's a *LIFE!*
Wanna know why they scream?
Because killing is against... *THE LAWWW!*
At 19:35, I feel that line would be more effective if he had a prop of some kind. Like glass bottles on his fingers he can clank together...or something.
16:22
"NO!"
"YES!"
I found that hilarious!
I've only been on 2:27 of this video, and already I'm laughing my ass off with Ramsay saying "You donkey!"
I think the boy has been dead this whole time. He fell into a drain in the sewers, drowned, and this is all the afterlife.
Another likely scenario is he is almost dead and this is all some sort of fever dream as his brain uses it's last burst of energy in a last-ditch effort to stay alive.
This movie is my guilty pleasure. Angus McFadden is amazing as Komodo.
The bad guy is like if Johnny depp and Jeromey Irons had a kid who was Tommy Wiseau and he married the bad guy from Skyward Sword and they had their kid was the villian.
The part with the ape howling made me laugh quite a bit. Something about the way it sounded got me. I'd love to see an interaction between Komodo and Dark Heart from Care Bears 2. I'm sorry, I mean DAAARRKKKK HEAAAAART!!!
Can you please re-upload your Star Trek reviews?😇
+Tanner Price Hoping to have those up real soon.
Serious question: Why is Tao spelled with a 'T' if it's pronounced "Dao"?
brainflash1 why is 'hour' spelled with an 'h' if it's pronounced 'our'? Why is 'sword' spelled with a 'w' when it's pronounced 'sord'? Why is 'Wednesday' spelled like that when it's pronounced 'Wensday?" yeah you check *your* weird language with words that are literally traps to anyone trying to spell/pronounce them!
Translation issues. Dipthongs. That sort of thing.
Don't get me started on the umlaut.
The yodeling ox sounds a lot like me when I took a soccer ball to the nuts in 2nd grade
Who else would like to see Nostalgia Critic review his old Nostalgia Critic videos?

I actually love this movie; i saw it in theaters when it was released for my birthday. Personally, I believe it's easy to tear apart most movies 20 years later. I'm sure if you look back at Gremlins, you could nitpick hundreds of things that don't make sense. However, looking back on movies from my childhood, I try not to take it in frame by frame looking for inconsistencies. I wasn't looking for logic in movies back then as much as I was looking for an escape from reality. In this way, Warriors of Virtue excells. Not to mention the expert level practical effects, character development, and an ethical message which most modern day movies can't be bothered taking time to deliver. I've never really liked movie critics or critics in general. They promote a message of pessimism and enjoy tearing apart the things I look back on fondly. I give this movie reviewer a 1/10 for inflated expectations and an overabundance of cynicism.
"Mutilated Ron Perlmans." That cracked me up.
There were only 3 parts to this film I remembered.
1. The sort where the kid falls into the whirlpool.
2. When the villain yells at the kid for not being able to read the book.
3. When the kid throws the spray can into the whirlpool.
That's how little I cared about the film.
