Channel Awesome YAAAAAAAAAAY
loving that intro could you use that all the time
You should review Stephen King's The Night Flier, it's god awful.
Nostalgia Critic is my inspiration lol
Oh no!
Can't a guy get some *PRIVACY? HMMHMMHMMHMMHMMHMM*
jontron, nostalgia critic and don't starve? you have good taste ;p
LucianoThePig You sir, you are gold.
*murderous stabbing sounds*
ledzeppelin711 it's a reference to the line at 10:14
Thank god i am not the only one who immediately thought of that.
The fuck does this movie have to do with catching dreams?!
Backstory goes that the dudes that helped Duddits made a dreamcatcher together. And because of all the psychic stuff it sort of binds them. Or something. Been a while since I watched the movie or read the book.
I don't think back story is a good enough reason
+TwinkleToez26
Um, yes it is.
I've noticed the titles of King stories have very little to do with the actual book...
except for Carrie, Cujo, Bazaar, The Shining, Thinner ... eh you catch my drift.
Fun Fact: Stephen King actually wrote the original novel while high on oxycontin.
And it shows. It REALLY shows.
I swear, every Stephen king book has a "He actually wrote this while high on X". Guy liked drugs.
I thought this was really good too
@@karenamyx2205 up until his car accident iirc
His post car accident writings are a bit less insane ( just a bit )
In other words, he was once again WUI (writing under the influence)! 😅
Fun fact: he was high while writing anything.
The big question: can Morgan Freeman say the word "shitweasel" and still make it sound majestic?
Ben Wasserman definite yes
Ben Wasserman
Well, he just did
Ben Wasserman he earns a freckle each time he does.
You are now reading this in Morgan Freeman's Voice.
Ben Wasserman I hope the mushy pea thing is explained, if not, is it a reference?
the fact that Thomas Jane actually did that scene where he answers his gun with a straight face is a testament to that man's acting abilities
Mandalore863 he went on to be the punisher after this movie. And the mist.
Thomas Jane looks like Harvey Dent from "The Dark Knight"
@@marcoluna3726 yep he looks very similar to Aaron Eckhart
@@marcoluna3726 he should play him in The Batman 2
Thomas Jane is an underrated actor, he deserves more recognition. I’m glad he’s doing another King adaptation From a Buick 8.
“This was the first book King wrote after his near fatal car accident. Does it show?”...........yes it shows. IT REALLY SHOWS.
My mom considers this one of the worst King books ever; right alongside “From a Buick 8” which also came out around the same time
@@LucyLioness100 can confirm, i’m a huge king fan and reading this disaster was painful.
@@LucyLioness100
Well, if your mom says it, must be legit.
@@LucyLioness100 what’s From A Buick 8 about exactly?
I think this is the constipation/hemorrhoids from being WAY too into downers.
Poor Chester... he just wanted his sandwich..
#GETCHESTERASANDWICH
One like equals one sandwich given
Still the best intro youve made
Thanks!
Not even close
It's still the x-files or nightmare before christmas one
Look up the backwards message on RUclips. It's hilarious.
I don't know, I really loved the Goosebumps intro. That could just be nostalgic fondness for Goosebumps talking though.
Sapphirewingthefurrycritic what is it?
I hadn't really heard of this movie till I caught an interview with the actor who plays Jonesy who described the movie as "It is a movie about male bonding till an alien explodes out of someone's ass" I mean after that how could I not watch it
I must find this movie…
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN QUARANTINE WE GOT A SICK GUY DOWN HERE"
THE IRONY ROFL
I don't know this aged poorly or not but I'm laughing 😂😂😂
Welcome to Corantine
Hahaha Are you talking about the year 2020?
Ahllen Yep
Silly me not tagging the original reply
This may sound like a cop-out, but I think a lot of the King tropes are linked due to the fact the book themselves are linked. So, the psychics all have ‘the shining’, Maine is where all the evil lies. I might have gotten some of that wrong, and the re use of certain things like the bullies etc don’t add up, but a lot of it is due to the shared universe I think.
I loved this book. The shit weasels were scary because they were basically parasites that were certain to kill whoever they infected and Duddits wasn’t a fucking alien. His purpose was way deeper and made much more sense. Another disappointing movie adaptation
So you're saying this is all leading up to the Stephen King cinematic universe?
@@legoking6165 the books are a shared universe the movies most likely aren't
Or........ and im maybe stretching here..... it's lazy writing
@@dustygozangas8191 no it isn't, many authors have common things they enjoy writing about what interests the writer is what they like to write about such as Grisham writing about laws and lawyers and things like that, so it is not it is just things that interests him so he writes about it
it's called Dream Catcher, yet the majority is about shit weasels.
I mean my dream was to hear a movie call the main bad as shit weasels so it caught my dream. Plus Morgan freeman says it i mean what more can someone ask for.
When looking at the poster and the name of the movie I imagined a story about some old Native curse or something. Aliens was the last thing I'd connect with the term "Dreamcatcher".
Dreamcatcher, just one word
@@Nutmeg- Too bad. I rather watch "Thinner," which is something closer to what you're describing.
The shot for shot opening remake of gravity falls killed me
Also, why did Tamara peeing herself turn me on
*ahem
details...
SAME
+Drelas
You may be omarashi...
XD Oh God, That Gravity Falls skit did it for me. That made my day.
I suspect the problem with Stephen King is that, while a very good author, he is so famous that nobody tells him when he is clearly putting stupid stuff into his stories.
Other authors have dumb ideas as well, but they are usually eliminated after a few drafts. Basically, King needs a less forgiving editor.
King has actually said the same thing. (I think specifically in reference to The Tommyknockers.)
Fervidor this is literally the reason I couldn't get far into this book.
Fervidor Ah, George Lucas Syndrome.
kungfuman82
Yeah, except I'm pretty sure Lucas sometimes did it on purpose.
He even said in an interview that he brought Stephen Spielberg in for a while to help out with ROTS, and would claim that some of his decisions were from Spielberg since he knew they wouldn't be questioned that way. Which is pretty damn sneaky, and shows how well he understood this phenomenon.
See, the problem was that Lucas actually wanted Star Wars to be kinda stupid, which I imagine complicated the matter a whole lot.
The number one mistake in writing fiction. Never use the first draft. Also, get proper feedback before publishing.
Chester looks downright distraught after being told he's not going to be given a sandwhich. Poor bastard.
Lol
#justiceforchester no wait.... #sandwichforchester !
*Gives Chester a grilled cheese sandwich 🥪 and a bowl of tomato basil soup 🍲 *
It's Nostalgia Critc, did you really think he was ever going to give him a sandwhich
Yeah. King movies tend to be too short to really give the context needed to get scenes like the one where the kids find the Scooby-Doo lunch box.
I think Kings work has to be read and imagined to really get "the whole picture".
But all in all it's nice to have the movies, because they're funny as fuck.
EDIT:
Holy fuck i died right after "two albino caterpillars with Morgan Freemans face attached"
You must be write.. because every Stephen king book I've read was at least worth reading, if not great. Even the ones with bad movies..
He is long winded though, but it pays off. In a medium driven by dialogue and inner monologue, this really kills. In a medium that needs to show not tell, in about 90 mins... it kinda sucks.
EDIT: I mean right* lol not write.. some kinda weird subconscious mixaroo
I watched this entire video on the crapper... I shit... you not ;)
get out
David Dwayne same here lol
David Dwayne That was gloriously terrible >u
the irony. I had to shit right as the video started
Boy these puns stink.
How about a review of the movie "Trick or Treat" the movie that has the kid in a potato sack mask with a stitched smile and buttons on it.
Machinima Knight Freddy versus Jason is in 2 weeks
Machinima Knight Didn't he do one already?
Kevin Dyer A spot in Top 11 New Halloween Classics
it's trick r treat. With an r, but good suggestion. Too bad it's a great horror film.
Don't you mean Trick 'R Treat?
"What the hell, why can't you write us smarter?"
Well there was that one time in Foodfight
A giant alien tape worm with serrated teeth and scissors ripping out your ass is a pretty scary idea, but, not like this. There's just too much nonsensical weirdness happening that every time you think you're getting scared a strange scene pops up that makes you kinda giggle.
Believe it or not, I *loved* this movie for exactly that reason. The cognitive dissonance between these two aspects of the film somehow appealed to me. Kind of like how the Fallout series mixes 20s/30s music with nuclear devastation.
maugos you're supposed to watch it on drugs, duh!
Nothing butt trouble. :P
maugos aswe
John Tumahab siop
I laughed so much at that bit when NC joked about with the gun, pretending it was a phone.
'"Woah that's a loud beep."
😂😂😂😂
Gilbert Gottfried up in here.
"OPERATOR? OPERATOR"!!? *clicking on gun trigger* xD
Doppio be like
2:06 _"Sh*t weasels."_
You can just see that moment of realization in Morgan Freeman's eyes: _"Oh Lord. What have I got myself into?"_
Catzilla Morgan hammed it up hardcore. I bet he had a blast.
"...otherwise shoot this mothafu**er and let us take our fraternity of assassins to heights reserved only for the gods of men... ... ..."
He was blinded by the caterpillars crawling over his eyes....
Catzilla Ahh, he just took the part to pay for his kids college one day.
Will we ever see the NC review The Mist? Probably; one day
Gavin Christenson Why would he? It's a damn fine movie. Unless you're talking about that stupid series.
@@douglasammirati8450
In the words of Cinemasins "no movie is without sin"
The series was shit!
That might make for a nice video but who wants to be reminded of that movie? In a long series of movies, The Mist is the only Stephen King movie I can think of where I regret wasting 2 hours of my life.
Amen Gavin. Amen...
That intro tho! Love Gravity Falls.
I concur with that statement epic intro.
I originally thought it was supposed to be Goosebumps, but then I noticed the costumes of Malcolm and Tamara.
yeah I like gravity falls too but what i DIDN'T like is how they managed to butcher the intro
+Doctor Whouse That was for last year's Nostalgia-Ween.
Bleach Drinker thye didn't butcher it, it's a parody of the song because the real song is copyrighted
I want Gravity Falls back :(
Same
IN ALL CAPS BUY THE JOURNAL
Well it was completely planned out that's how the story was meant to be, it's more of a miniseries than anything.
the telekinetic rock
OH MY GOD YOU ARE STALKING ME
IN ALL CAPS I fail to see how finding your comments or you finding my comments could remotely count as stalking. I don't even follow that logic as a joke.
I should've known he was gonna be parodying the Gravity Falls intro.
He was really proud on facebook when he released it early, and they definitely had fun making it.
BlazingWaters Did you miss it being used last week?
Scott Sandler Yea, I didn't really know (nor care, all honestly) for the editorial of that week, so I didn't know its made its debut early.
they may ignore the "off week" editorials
BlazingWaters It wasn't early. Nostalgiaween covers every week of October
I remember seeing that toilet scene as a kid and going the next two weeks avoiding the hell out of every bathroom...it scared me shitless
Literally
Where did you poop
*rimshot*
You must have been a huge wuss.
And yet why was is called Dreamcatcher which is that ancient native american homemade object that is used to catch bad dreams
i've seen the movie a few times and it's just a 2 and a half hour long WTF fest that changes plot like 9 times and makes literally no sense...the dreamcatcher its self is one of many WTF aspects to this movie and its only mentioned like 3 times total. if i wrote this, i honestly wouldnt know what to call it...i actually kinda like this movie because of how strange it is.
it was originally called 'Cancer', apparently because of when people find out they have cancer by seeing blood in their shit. Makes more sense than 'Dreamcatcher'
Well...you have to be kind of a Stephen King junkie to possibly see the connection, but...the short answer is it makes a bit more sense in the book version.
The idea was that the psychic power that Duddits had, connected to the other boys, gave the ability to translate thoughts and desires into reality, i.e. a "real life dreamcatcher". The problem is it was totally involuntary on Duddits' part, and the boys could involuntarily make things happen against his will (such as Stephen King Trope #11, when they psychically killed their bully in the book in an involuntary action).
"Mr. Gray" isn't a gray-skinned alien in the book; he's a noncorpeal manifestation into physical reality courtesy of Gary's connection to Duddits. The question the book leaves uncertain is WHAT he was before that. There's a lot of evidence that he was nothing more than a split personality that Gary evoked when got in his accident, but...there's also a lot of evidence that Mr. Gray is, in fact, another malevolent entity like Pennywise was or possibly IS Pennywise from "IT". (The movie barely touched on the fact the climax occurs in Derry, the same locale as "IT", but in the book there's a monument to the flood that destroyed Derry's sewer system in the climax of the book...as well as grafitti on it that reads: "PENNYWISE LIVES".) In fact, in the original book, the two remaining main characters kill Mr. Gray in a "battle of wills" as well rather than Duddits turning into an alien and such. In that case, it would be a metaphorical example of "a nightmare getting caught in the dreamcatcher".
because shitweasels wouldn't work. dreamcatcher sounds interesting at least.
Me: Hey look a review for a movie I've never seen before.
NC: I'm getting anti-religion commentary-
Me: It's a Stephen King movie, isn't it?
i don't get where it's suppoused to be, were the bullies christians?
"IT'S STEVEN KING TIME!"
Speaking of quarintine hi I'm 2020
Lost me in the first three sentences.
It literally says "stephan king" in the title
Finally Doug sees Rick and Morty
Huy Bii Finally someone else comments on that! I was so happy! I love Rick and Morty and have been wanting Doug to see it, I'm glad he finally has
Speaking of Scooby Doo, Stephen King appeared as an author named "Steve Kingman" in some of the comic books, which started in 2001.
And the bad guy in "Scooby Doo and the Witches Ghost" was modeled on him.
Scooby doo comic books is too far down the rabbit hole for me
Apparently King wrote Dreamcatcher while on Oxycontin. Huh.
Well that explains a lot.
Wow, what a lightweight ;)
That's nothing, he wrote Cujo while so high on Cocaine he didn't even remember writing it.
You got that right!!!
Yeah, it shows
Stephen King himself said it best, "I am the literary equivalent of a Big Mac and fries." That's why I love him. Even his bad stories are so enjoyable, but with such little substance.
He has some good ones though.
And to all his critics he can just say "Sorry, couldn't hear you over the sound of how rich I am. Enjoy your cup-noodles." because Big Macs sell more then moldy cheese.
Love King :D
MacGuffin I have enjoyed all his books to at least some degree. I have enjoyed very few movies based on them, though.
Poppy M
My personal theory is that his horror novels in many cases are like the "Tales from the Crypt" series. They have a certain style of horror/dark comedy that exist more to entertain and freak out then actually "scare" people.
11/22/63 is my favorite book of all time
He has mostly good ones. It's just that his novels aren't well turned into films
4:08 - 4:12 -- Poor guy looks heartbroken over that sandwich.. That was the saddest 4 seconds I have ever witness on the Internet:(
i'm still crying
AlecSK27 Pewdiepie
I know right? It made me feel surprisingly sad. Also, is it just more or does Chester sound vaguely Irish? like around 25:10
Sad. I would've given Chester my Barnyard Sandwich (Black forest Ham, Roast Beef, chicken and Turkey breast)
AlecSK27 poor chester
"That doesn't stop evil Eric Idle from knocking on his door!"
Oh my god, if possessed Jonesy started singing "The Bright Side Of Life" I could die happy.
Why is this called "Dreamcatcher"? Were there any in the movie? Because even if there were, they couldn't have been important.
2:02
A dreamcatcher is supposed to catch nightmares and allow good dreams to pass through. A dreamcatcher is a guardian from invasive horrors. The boy/alien seeing the good in the other kids makes them a dreamcatcher to guard humanity.
DeadmauStar the Absol
If Wikipedia's plot summary is accurate, when the aliens confront at the end, they explode and the resulting fireworks look like a dreamcatcher.
Well in the book, dreamcatchers are used pretty heavily for symbolism. The web of relationships between people memories and places form a dreamcatcher that the aliens, actually a species of sapient psychic mold that is symbiotic and harmless to most species but interacts with the bacteria of human digestive systems in a Very Bad Way, can actually perceive.
**looks at NC's jacket**
So THERE'S where all the money went!
I like it!
(No joke. I want a jacket like that.)
He's had that jacket for a long time. Like the last 4 halloweens I think
No, he started using it just last Haloween.
Either way. I want that jacket.
How and where did he get that jacket?
Sam I believe he had it last year, too! I want him to start a fashion line lol.
Damian Lewis Is actually a brit in real life. But he can play an American really well. It's really cool ain't it?
Maverick1989 he's the best part of this movie and definitely the strongest actor.
+Maverick1989
That's because the British can play us better than we can.
+HateSolstice127 We hail Prince George, we hail Prince George!
9 this begs the question when British people think about how Romans would sound, do they mentally picture them speaking in a British accent like everyone else on Earth does?
It's funny how Critic states that Damian sounds like a drunk Simon Pegg when the two worked together in Band of Brothers (Pegg was the First Sergeant in the first episode that tagged along with Sobel).
12:14 _"Two albino caterpillars with Morgan Freeman's face attached"_
Yeah, that's what he said
13:25 _"Dueling pair of Dr. Wily mustaches"_
So...why is it called Dreamcatcher again?
Because "Duddits" like the book sounds really stupid. And there's I think one scene including a dreamcatcher.
erttheking the Dreamcatcher was four rings connected by a larger ring. Dudditz and the group were the physical manifestation. That is , Mr. Grey's plot was nightmarish...so they stopped it.
the book sounds stupid? there is a scene in the movie/book where the boys and duttits make a dreamcatcher, friendship bond stuff
erttheking
Cuz shitweasels
erttheking Because Dreamcatchers are full of shit, just like the asses the Shit Weasels come from. I'll show myself out...
It was a bad decision to watch this review in the restroom :/
Pzafrk "What about the shit weasels."
If I could, I would give this comment a thousand likes for the hilarity of it. x'D *dead*
It sure was.
right now I'm battling a parasitic stomach flu. this review isn't helping
How are the shit weasels?
It took me a shamefully long time to realize that the britified Tamara and Malcolm were actually played by someone else.. lol
Maria ER THEY WHERE!
Uhhhh, you realized Malcolm turned white all of a sudden right?
What'cha talking 'bout? You crazy.
Maria ER
They looked the same.Dumbass.
Maria ER it's filmbrain
Malcolm with peed pants and that serious look. LMFAO! He IS Channel Awesome's best actor.
...sorry Doug, you're funny too.
The only problem is he has a normal name.
Now of his name was Rachel Tietz, or even Malcom Bewbs(for variety), he would be the unquestioned star.
*Uploaded 25 seconds ago* FUCK YES I'M EARLY!
Dr. Turbo actually? He's 25 seconds late
soo the high point of your day?...
Next year, he should review Cell (the Stephen King adaptation with John Cusack and Samuel L. Jackson about cell phone zombies).
Tristan Hartup dude I thought you were joking until I Googled it... 7% on RT
One of the few King books I've read. Only part I remember is some chick obsessed with a kids shoe. Also, some wimpy buisness man kicks ass because "In times of stress, the body remembers how to fight"
Tristan Hartup I saw that 2014 movie! If this film had been made when the 2006 book was written, it might have made waves, but as it is, it's another The Crazies meets Rabid meets Zombie Apocalypse.
The ending of CELL could've been more powerful if they hadn't thrown in an alternate shot in the last moment. It left the conclusion incoherent!
Tristan Hartup No no he needs to review Thinner, that would be so easy to rip apart!
*coughs* wait what?! :o that sounds stupidly awesome
On the last Nostalgiaween, they should change the intro to be like wierdmaggedon. Like if you agree.
yes do that lol
+david gold I support this!!!
I vote
For this
With Devil Boner instead of NC
Disliked until you give Chester his sandwich. He deserved that sandwich, damnit!
THAT INTRO WAS AMAZING!!!!!
THUMBS UP IF YOU LOVE GRAVITY FALLS!!!!!!
And thumbs up if you've never watched even a single episode!
Now the thumbs up war begins Cheepa Creepa!
Cheepa Creepa the "Hannel Awesome" joke wasn't as good as "Mystery Hack" though
4:11 poor bum. He looks so sad.
His name is Chester you fool
Name someone by the surname makes you a fool now?
?
Of course! Chester A. Bum as of Chester *Alien* Bum.
Mah mind bleed a little.
Hearing Doug talk about Stan Lee in the middle of this review feels sad. In 2016 people still had a chance too great and meet this living legend. But now in 2019 and beyond Stan Lee is gone. So Comic-Con is going to be different for people like me who have never Seen the guy live in person.
i like the gravity falls style op
lobolobadubdub
ninjaowen03 wtf even is ur profile picture lmao
HeyItsMeDaisy
its ment to stair in to your bedroom window at night but it got drunk and ended up in a ditch
Ain't Gravity Falls the best?
hell yeah
"He's head chun's whenever he turns" this is my favorite joke so far.
The Hoodie sound effect cracked me the fuck up. I am very familiar with that sound because it's a stock sound a lot of games(including the one my PFP is from) use for fire igniting, so every time I hear it I'm expecting the guy to just spontaneously combust.
You know nostalgia critic is from Chicago when he mentions Portillos
Portillos is the food of Gods!
^ This. Hell yes.

It's funny when the guy with the red hair gets taken over by the alien and goes all Nigel Thornberry. Than after the film I find out he is actually English just faking the American accent at the beginning!
Even funnier, he said he was deliberately trying to act like Malcolm McDowell as the "Evil British Alien".
@@ShadowSonic2 Well, too me he literally, sounds like, Nigel Thornberry from “The Thornberry’s.” But what also, makes it funny is Tim Curry voiced Nigel Thornberry and he’s also British!
Why does everyone misuse Jason Lee so, he's a good actor, why does no one use his talents correctly?
Maybe the same reason Adam Sandler's talents are wasted?
ShadowWolfRising They should just bring My Name Is Earl back.
At least he did great as Syndrome in the Incredibles.
+The Stargazer, See this I can get on board with.
Great actor, but amazing skate-boarder.
Is the intro a gravity falls reference? It's things like this that make me regret not watching it.
yes. It's a shot for shot remake of the opening.
The show is incredible, you should definitely give it a chance!
gravity falls Is (trust me I don't use this ightly)the best show I have ever watch up there is over the garden wall invader zim rick and morty ect
WATCH IT NOW!!!
Dr.CookiesNeedLoveLikeEverthingDoes you posted a comment in the RUclips comments. This is all we know about you. Don't be surprised when you bash on popular belief with little/no backup for it. "They're obnoxious" isn't good enough. Cover your blind spots.
11:36 as an OCD person, I can confirm that scene is bullshit lol.
No It Ain't.

Poppy M and i am 100% sure you have a legit diagnosis.
the next time i endanger the world by picking scrap metal off the street it will be in your name.
14:50 Why do fake British accents always sound like tea party guests?! What you need is more gruff and scratchy mixed with monotone! I’ve met real British people, it sounds more realistic and badass when you do it correctly!
The actor was actually a Brit putting on an American accent.
Stephen King said in an interview with Rolling Stone that he wrote Dreamcatcher while stoned from Oxytocin after the accident. That explains so many things....
"I'm gonna find a way to brexit outta here" Gold!

It's actually scary how well King makes these crazy plots work in his books. It's all about the writing style.
I agree.. these books are usually so good because of how invested in the characters you are. This is pretty thoroughly achieved in writing, its 1st person.. you're literally in their head.
In 90 minutes of show dont tell.. nah, way harder.
Ehhh... I disagree. I like Kings work, but at times he is a terrible writer. This is one of those times, just like Golden Years, and the Tommyknockers.
At 7:35 when you reffer to them singing to him as a wierd thing...
Maybe I am wierd too, but I did the same thing once.
When I was in first grade, we had a a special needs kids in our class. He was sad over something, and the teacher had issues cheering him up again. Me, being just a silly kid, decided to walk up to the two of them and start singing and play "If you're happy and you know it clap your hands", with the him.
And... it worked! He started to smile and he laughed a little, and all around seemed to be back in good mood.
It is a cherished memory of mine. So, that is why I think it is a little wierd to call that moment of them singing as wierd.
Now, obvously, my classmate was not a alien in disguise like in this movie... atleast not as far as I know! :P
Oh my... I didn't remember it being so bad. But now I don't wanna remember any more!
That's why we have Doug. He remembers it so you don't have to
Ah, now I get it.
Oh yeah. This movie was..... just....awful. Apparently Stephen King would also rather sweep this one under the carpet.
I had the same thought. g-g-g-GOD.
Edit: I am lazy and can't make a proper sentence, BTW this is the best NC intro ever.

What was the original comment?
***** I said I wanted to see NC do short circuit, but he had already done it.
13:17 with the rate Disney's going they might do that
Will anyone read this comment????
no

Nope. Sorry. *scrolls through comments* have a lovely day!
probably...
Lovin' these new episodes.
Thanks for watching!

Hey, great stuff as always. I'm sure by now someone has recommended for to watch The Fly or the Thing from the 80's. But for James Rolfe, she should watch the 50's versions first.
Hi.
so.......why is it called dreamcatcher?
Because king is a braindamaged junkie who has trouble forming coherent thoughts
Dreamcatchers are made of 5 circles that overlap, and the 5 boys lives overlap
It's a little late, and noone else gave you a decent answer. In the book the dreamcatcher is a symbol for Duddits (who isn't an alien) that with his mental abilities connects the other four, giving them abilities. Just like a dreamcatcher has strings/yarn connecting different points along the circle, Duddits' abilities connect the five boys. In the book, Duddits actually dies on the way to intercept Jonesie, and after the aliens are defeated and Duddits has died, Henry and Jonesie no longer possess any mental abilities.
That's not true at all. O.o
@@Lunara1990 Thank you! Someone who understands and gave the correct answer!
I swear I’ve heard that hoodie sound effect every time I use the fire flower in Super Mario Galaxy
I think the most important thing to take away from this is that Doug has watched Rick and Morty.
Also, this was a really great review - one of the best in a while I think ( loved the callback to the Purge review)
On a side note, "Shitweasel" is my new favourite insult
If Stephen King wrote this while on Oxycontin then that explains how Ed Wood made Plan 9 From Outer Space while dropping Methadone - - a habit he picked up from his late friend Bela
Gotta say, that intro always gives me that warm fuzzy "How did they DO that so well?!" feeling.
Also, petition to give Chester a sandwich...and some change.
Isn’t Derry where It took place?
3:26 wait Derry, Derry?! Dosen't that place have enough trouble with their kids going missing.
Yep
Well not any more after it was... oh wait aliens saw the clown after that so yes yes it dose
Is Malcolm like, an actual actor? He's really good.
Well, he DOES act in these videos and he IS on the payroll, sooo... yes. He's a professional actor.
im suprised malcom and tamara have never been recruited by snl.
He does voice acting for the "DC Abridged" crew; he plays several characters and is pretty good.
Plus he did the 5 episodes of "Demo Reel" with Doug, if you haven't watched them yet (I really liked him in the Batman one, but it's been a long time).
+luke baggins
snl doesn't "recruit". Actors audition for snl, then they hire the ones that they thnk are funny.
Yay I love Stephen King time!!! I wait every year for it
For sure :D His one on the Shining miniseries still gets a re-watch now and then Lol
Perid0tStar I think I've rewatched them all multiple times lmao
I can just imagine you sitting in a corner of your one room home quietly watching reruns of 50s series awaiting for The next Nostalgiaween.
Afonso Lucas yep that's me lmao
Maybe for his next Stephen King review, he should have the author guest star on his show like he did Don Bluth and Mara Wilson :)
2:06 if Morgan Freeman saying “shit weasels” doesn’t make you laugh, then I don’t know what does
em, i think nobody bothers to read the original books anymore, and only accredits the movies to king.
Let me tell you something. i read the book before i saw the movie, and they have absolutely nothing in common. in fact, they have entirely different endings. i really liked the book, the movie was just so plan and simplified.
I fucking lost it when Film Brain appeared XD
great review! I'm very happy you pointed out the ableism in that whole alien twist
TindraSan So the twist of him being an alien is discrimination in favor of able bodied people? Sorry having a hard time seeing that.
TheUndefeatedMagician dude, they even pointed out in the review exactly why that is.
"a person couldn't possibly just be mentally disabled or mentally damaged due to their surroundings! them having been an alien all along makes alot more sense! how could I not have seen it?!"
I don't think it was an intentional jab at disabled ppl, but it rarely is in many cases.
No need to get you panties in a bunch when I was just complimenting the review :/
TindraSan Oh it was at the end skit. Guess thats what I get for not watching the review till the end. Sorry :/
TheUndefeatedMagician no worries, I make that mistake too sometimes :P
patience is the key
julie martinez huh? ok well that makes me a bit less disappointed at mr King at least. how did the book end then, may I ask?
Noooooo Chester looks so sad...
I’m watching this review on the toilet.
Coincidence? I THINK NOT!
Probably too late for this year, but maybe in a future Nostalgiaween you guys could cover Stranger Things in an NC Editorial or something?
BEST INTRO EVER!!!!!!!!!!
And top 11 gravity falls episodes?!?! YES!
Ok hearing Morgan fucking Freeman saying "ok what about the shit weasels" (with a straight fucking face) induced a bout of laughter so loud and lengthy I legit had to pause the fucking video because I couldn't hear anything said afterwards lmao XD
Like I can't stop laughing what the fuck this is supposed to be a HORROR??
EDIT: Ok it literally caused a minor asthma attack. That's how hard it made me laugh. Now I'm also kinda sleep deprived so I'm laughing more easily but like...... omfg
(I had to rewind it, heard the line again, started laughing again and..... yea. I have very severe asthma tho, this isn't the first time I've laughed myself into an asthma attack.)
holy crap I'm glad you're okay dude
"Oh of course....Future squeakquels."
...Why is it called Dreamcatcher?
Because... Sleepshits?
Realafah I just finished the book, and it was originally called cancer due to the alien infection that is predominant in the book, but his wife was disgusted by the title so he named it dream catcher after the dream catcher that tied all of the men together psychically
Duddits was called a dreamcatcher
Is his next review gonna be Freddy vs Jason? I've heard a little about it but I just wanna be sure.
Yes.
Yeah!! Let the fight of the century begin
klimmr3021 awesome!
Oh man, that movie came out when I was in 8th grade and my friends and I loved it. That will be quite the shitshow to look back on.
Freddy vs Jason, or Halloween Resurrection - which is worsebetter?
12:03 this had me choke on my dinner. xDDDDDDD
So... Why is this film/story called "Dreamcatcher?" How are dreamcatchers, or even dreams, tied into any of this?
... the guy who wrote the force awakens also wrote this? good for him.
Hehe... 14:08 making a joke about a dog with worms at a movie in which the plot includes humans with worms! Nice!
I would love to see the bloopers of Malcolm's reaction after saying "we've peed our pants"
King is a sheer genius because even his trash stories make him tons of money and get made into movies and tv series.
Long ago, his publisher and him were talking about which book to publish next. It was between Roadwork (which would be published later under the pseudonym Richard Bachman) and Salem's Lot. The publisher showed concern that if they went with Salem's Lot, King would be pigeonholed as a horror writer. King replied, "I don't care as long as the checks don't bounce."
holy shit. the possesed guy sounds like GradeAUnderA
oh my god you are right lmao
Holy crap he does!!!!!
they're both terrible at lying
Oh my god, Your right! lmao
Bwahaha!!! Grade definitely needs to hear that one!
In the book Duddits isn't an alien. The original ending it was just like the book
What happened in the book?
It was all a dream. A hallucination? The Matrix? A mental projection? Maybe really happened? But not? Perhaps, sort of. Eh?
Honestly, the book ending is mind-bending and I'm not really sure.
@@suckypuckle9292 so it's a matter of 'choose your cop out ending'.
@@kenisu-of-dragons5766 Well, not so much. I was amidst a re-read of the book when I came here and the ending is quite a lot clearer now.
Mr. Gray isn't real. That is to say: Some fuckin' alien thing is in Jonesy's head, being all fuckin' alien. But everything we see of it, the speaking through Jonesy's mouth and all of that, is not real. The alien's words words translate through his mouth only to make some sense for him of the inhuman "thoughts" it's filling his head with. It calls itself Mr. Gray because IT (the clown), who is either an active terror or just a boogeyman tale depending on whether you're in town during IT's hibernation or not, uses the name Robert Gray - so his memory's basically snatched a name from a spooky campfire story, more or less, to create some grounded identity for this thing in his head. And its 'voice' has a British accent because Jonesy and his pals are all major TV dorks and the bad guys always have cartoonish British accents.
So the aliens are real, the thing in Jonesy is real - but everything tangible about it, the name and voice and all is just his brain striving to make sense of the incomprehensible thing that's taken up residence in his head, because otherwise his brain would break.
It's a similar matter to IT, actually: IT isn't a giant spider --- but that's the closest fragile human minds can get to what IT really is without imploding, so that's what they all see at the end. Both very much in the Lovecraft camp of 'This shit will drive you mad if you comprehend its true form -- so just settle for something nicer.'
Can you review Van Hellsing please? It is nostalgic I think for being a bad film plus I am curious.
Fun fact apparently Stephen king was on some medication when he wrote the book
I'd guess very strong prescription painkillers.
Sean given he was nearly killed & suffered massive trauma like a broken leg I think he said in “On Writing” that he was on strong painkillers during his recovery process
Likely lots of strong painkillers for the train he endured from his injuries. Course the majority of his works were written under various substances
It's obvious. Just like it's obvious he was on other "medication" when writing other books.
