"Tom and jerry's gient adventurers" is a movie nastalga critic should review
I know nastalga critic already reviewed tom and jerry before. im just saying it would be nice if nastalga critic did another one
I was gonna say “How in the hell would this be your first viewing of an iconic 30 year old action flick, it’s just like saying ‘I never seen any of the Chucky movies’ or ‘what’s the Predator?’. Well enough rambling.
Yoda Chucky is a classic? I always thought it to be too low quality tbh.
Hey, Critic... Would you believe me if I told you a 2000s Disney film FLOPPED? It's called Roadside Romeo. It's by the India branch of Disney... and it's honestly not that bad. But that's just one opinion. Review it if you dare...
“Die Hard First Viewing”
Press X to Doubt
X
*spams X*

It's the first time they're viewing it for the purpose of coming up with review schtick.

Die Hard's a Harry Potter movie. He sneaks around a tower at night avoiding Alan Rickman.
And he has to deal with an annoying blonde guy.
I legitimately laughed out loud for a few minutes at this. Good job, sir.
How many people can tel this joke
So is also the Kevin Costner Robin Hood movie
@@johnoneil9188 "And call of Christmas!"- my favourite quote from that movie
“This is gonna be a First Viewing where we’re all just sitting here silently with erections!”
Never change, Brad! 😂
That was a good one.
agreed. Never CHange, Brad.
I said to myself, "Of course Brad said that!"
Yeah, Brad is easily the biggest freak and a small part of me wished that he was a part of the Sleepwalkers First Viewing
I want them to reunite every year to do Die Hard sequels
that would be a great idea
After the first three years it would become a painful experience.
@@ThreadBomb Meh, I liked Die Hard 4 more than any other sequel in that series.
Ah yes the best Christmas movie. A Good Day To Die Hard
Two was crap, three was my favorite sequel, four was surprisingly good, and five can be burned in a ditch.
And I said “this is my first viewing.” You know, like a liar
First viewing??
“Hey, have you seen die hard before?”
And I said “no” you know, like a liar....
“Hey were at my party on Saturday? They say things really got out of hand”
Someone broke the pool table....
Someone took a crap on my Dad’s computer....
But the most important thing is, someone stole these old, antique photos of my grandmother, and my parents are freaking out about it.”
😭
I love this thread
Hans Gruber was the best part of this movie. He literally died hard 😅
The highest Dard
YOU CAN SEE THROUGH HIS HEAD??? I NEVER NOTICED THAT! BEST MOVIE EVER
When I saw this as a kid, I said that to my dad and he just said I imagined it...
I now have been vindicated after all these years!!!
Everyone knows!!!
I mean...can you? That just seemed like weird lens focus to me
Chaplin is so cute, He’s just like, “Hi, I’m Chaplin! Wow! What a perfect day!”
"Hi! I'm Die Hard!"
Don't let cats deceive you into thinking they're innocent just because they look cute.
We need Chaplin's Corner!
I read that in Chaplin's voice
Colin McGrath I’m Petster.
*NO YOUR NOT*
I find it hilarious that even though Doug's screaming bloody murder (out of joy), Chaplin doesn't give one F. Best kitty.
Feel like it’s just “Viewings” at this point
you 'member Real Thoughts? I 'member real thoughts.
Or maybe "Re-Viewings"
@@sullivanbard Names taken
It's their first viewing with a NC episode in mind.
It's definitely a Christmas movie, seasonal presentation aside:
- Distant, married to his job, parent visiting for the holidays.
- There's a third wheel who is into the main character's significant other.
- There's a party scene that's followed by an argument.
- The villains are the embodiment of excessive greed.
- An aspect of the film is about realising what really matters, being with one's family.
There's a third wheel who is into the main character's significant other.
Al?
So Bruce Willis goes through the whole movie in bare feet... Are we sure this wasn't ghost-written by Tarantino?
Nah, he'd be throwing up cause the feet were too mauled
He does have a foot fetish
It would have been Bonnie Bedelia that was barefoot the whole movie if it was Tarantino.
Feet feet feet feet feet feet
@Azzi2166 Yeah, there is also cultural and character context to take into consideration. Of course people in Django use the word a lot, but people should also look at who is using it. The villains of the movie use it the most.
Look at Tarantino himself using the word in Pulp Fiction. Well, he is close friends with Samuel's character and has been put in a difficult position by him. He is pissed-off and is trying to show that.
I have seen people shocked by Blazing Saddles, claiming that it is the most racist movie ever made, when it is actually all about accepting each other as the same human beings no matter what.
Understanding context is difficult for a lot of people it seems?
Carl Winslow started out as a new cop in New York...then Ghostbusters happen and it freaked him out so he moved back to Chicago...then one night in the dark, Urkel pulls a "ray gun" on him, and Carl Winslow shot and kills Urkel. He is so ashamed he moves out to Los Angeles and changes his name to Al Powell and but still lives with the guilt of killing Urkel.
Tadicuslegion78 It checks out...👍
Perfect! XD
🤔 when was he Tom Hanks’s partner when he had Hooch ?
I love how at least half the comments are about Chaplin. He must have been hoping Brad would bring his cat.
RIP Alan Rickman, who died around this week in 2016.
I love brads inclusion in these xD "Somebody's selling gas station donuts with razor blades in them....I'LL TAKE MY CHANCES" LMAOO
Anyone love it when chaplin comes on screen and you’re paying more attention to him than the review?
Came for the Die Hard, stayed for the Chaplin
come for Brad n the Walkers, stay for Chaplin
Come out to the coast! We'll get together, have a few laughs
Now I know what a TV dinner feels like!
3:07- Pet me! I'm Chaplin! Oh look, Brad Jones! What a great guy!
Review The Simpsons Movie.
Deshawn Edwards please listen to this Doug
Big explosion
"Tell me you got that!"
"I got it. I got it."
Scene from Die Hard? Yes, but also Michael Bay when directing a movie.
I’m Chaplin and I like this movie. I’m also Chaplin.
Rickman is GOLD in this film.
The real is question is, when was Rickman NOT gold?
(Hint: the answer is never)
@@undeadmaruchan2311 True facts are true ❤️
Doug: hey Chaplain, we’re watching Die Hard.
Chaplain: That’s my favorite! I’m Chaplain! 😸
Keep Chaplain in every viewing!
There are 3 kinds of Christmas movies:
1) movies about Santa claus
2) movies about someone getting their Christmas spirit back
3) die hard
Ps home alone falls under #3 lol
What about Batman Returns?
Bruce Chmiel that’s #2
Mammoth Supremacy 55 number two as well.
I did a rock painting of Chaplin the cat a while back. His round face and body made for a perfect model! 😺
3:07 Chaplin: Oh boy! I wanna see this movie. I'm Chaplin!😁
There are 2 types of people in the world.
1) those who think "Die Hard" is a Christmas movie
2) those who are wrong
agreed
And those who watch Die Hard with their cat.
@@LadyOnikara I would like to think you can be either with or without a cat. Are you bringing attention to your cat?
@@traviswall1982 My cats don't really care about cool stuff except for naps. I need a cat like Chaplin who will watch movies with me.
Wow Doug does a pretty good impression of Chaplin!
Ikr? I was thinking the same!
A slumber party!
Does look like it 😁
3:07 Hi Chaplain.
John's wife's name is Holly, it's totally a Christmas movie!!!
Lol. Still works in my book friend!
"It's christmas!"
9th of January......
Die Hard is an anytime movie...
Christmas... Obviously...
New Years? Explosions...
Valentine's Day? Romance...
9-11... Well...
Easter... Coming back from the dead!!!
"It's like if Ken Watanabe and Jack Palance had a son"
Good lord, that description of Takagi was absolutely perfect!
7:44 It took until maybe the 3rd time seeing this almost 20+ years ago that his tank *WAS* white. Now it's damn green.
Yippee Kay Yay and a Merry F’ing Christmas
I love how Chaplin just sat on the arm of the couch for over half a minute.
I dunno why, but that just made me laugh 😆
Great review guys. Chaplin is like Oh boy you are watching Die Hard guys. Can I join I'm Chaplin. 😎
Anyone else find watching Chaplain to be the best part of this?😅
Brian every time
Still waiting on Barney First Viewing. Is that video cursed lol.
I love seeing Doug interact with Chaplin. It's so precious!
Fun fact, those barrels where there naturally, when they checked out the building, they decided to keep everything and use what was there, including the hook on the chain and the fire hose.
Somehow I doubt this is their first viewing
2:15 he sounded JUST like rob
Thoticus. Prime it is rob dumbass
Ultimate Christmas movie HO-HO-HO
Now I just want to see these three watch Terminator 2. My husband recently showed it to me and I was absolutely blown away. I was shocked that they actually remembered to give a spark before blowing up the truck in the early chase scene. Most action movies just think gas leaks equal car explosion, but Terminator 2 got it freaking right!
3:08 how cute can Chaplin be just hopping on the coach and watching die hard
Chaplin stayed for the entire viewing.
What more proof of this movies awesomeness does anyone need?
This should be a 30 second video. "Does it hold up?" "Yep." "Yep." "Yep." "Cool. Done."
"It's a Wonderful Life" is a Die Hard Movie!
Christmas is a die hard movie
There's something so pure about watching Doug watch a movie wish a cat in his lap. I paid more attention to Chaplan than anything else in this video.
And Cinema Snob. I love when he guest stars.
It's funny to see Doug and rob like this
8:90 ~
There is a pretty good Die Hard game. Die Hard Trilogy
DO
"BETTER OFF DEAD"!
"This is Pure Snow!"
"Chriiiiistmaaaasss."
"Pour her Ricky to put his... how do you say? Testicles all overe me."
"Language Lessons."
Aww, I love Chaplin. Makes me miss my kitty :'( (she passed this last Christmas, and she used to just come in and sit on my whatever I was watching some).
Such a precious baby
One thing I’ve always wondered, why “Helsinki syndrome”? Does Stockholm syndrome have some kind of copyright?
2:53 Hey, there’s no Romans 3 chapter 23!
...
However, Romans 3:23 says “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God”, which *does* fit as something Hans might say at that point, I would think.
I came for Die Hard I stayed for Chaplin
love your cat . :)
I completely agree about Willis vs Stalone and Schwarzenegger! Willis is my all time favorite action actor because he can look genuinely scared shitless when he gets into a fire fight or hangs in an elevator shaft, whereas Stalone and Schwarzenegger just knows they're going to come out on top. Willis doesn't get cocky until after when he realizes he's the last one standing. It gives the impression that he isn't just an unstoppable force of badass but a human being with skills and a healthy dose of luck!
The cat alone deserves a thumbs up! :)
There was sort of a modern Die Hard game based off the first movie. It was called Nakatomi Plaza. It was a first person shooter based off the first movie. It was only released for PC which kinda sucked because I don’t rememeber hating it but when I try to install it on my current PC it’s glitches up now and makes it unplayable to try to go back too unless you have an old PC. But anyone who hasn’t heard of it I recommend checking it out.
Do a friday the 13th movie like part 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 nostalgia critic or first viewing
"Die Hard first viewing."
Pffffffff........ BWAHAHAGAHAHAHAJAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Die hard just fits right with the holidays. It’s a breath of fresh air after watching all the cheesy stuff. We’re not finding the meaning of Christmas. We’re not trying to save Santa. There’s no sappy hallmark love story. The whole thing is enjoyable from beginning to end. It’s perfect to put on when you have other adult friends over.
Chaplin: “wow!! You guys watching ‘Die Hard’ ?? What a great movie! Ima just hang out here! Isn’t this great??”
I would honestly love to see a cliche Christmas story with a hard R rating.
"Santa we're stuck in the police station how do we get out?"
**Santa slowing loading gun**
"The only way out now look the other way"
It cuts to the outside of the station, 3 shots each one going further and further away from the station. 20 seconds go by and an ambulance pulls up identifying 3 dead civilians, 2 Children and 1 Man.
Then the end credits appear with the most cheerful song ever.
What about bad santa?
My favorite part of this movie is the gimmick of the villain and the hero being in constant communication with each other and both can hear everything the other is saying to their allies.
“Touching, Cowboy. Touching”
One of the best action movies ever made! It might be in contention for my favorite, it's that good!
Look if you think it’s a Christmas movie ok I don’t think so but ultimately don’t care
Teacher says every time Hans Gruber falls out of Nakatomi Plaza a terrorist gets his wings!
I'm sure they made some funny jokes but I couldn't help but focus on how comfortable that cat looks on his lap.
Wish you guys showed your reaction when Rickman puts on the American accent
I have tried to start a new trend by proclaiming that Lethal Weapon is a Christmas movie for the same reasons.
Honestly, I love the NC's reviews, but your first viewings and commentaries are always awesome to watch. Please keep this going!
I don't know about America, but over here we watch "The Hogfather" at xmas. It's on TV like every year. And it's based off a book by a beloved English author, Sir Terry Pratchett, who died a few years back. Basically, the Grim Reaper has to dress up as not-Santa in order to save not-Christmas. And we love it.
I'm just bringing it up because in my (admittedly limited) experience, I've never really seen Americans mention Terry Pratchett, while in Australia, it's impossible to discuss literature without bringing him up.
Good choice!
While I wasn't the biggest fan of the film it had plenty of gems. Mainly the grotto scene, the middle finger to the ending of the little match girl, and the great falsehoods of society.
Knew this was gonna be a great video because I saw Brad...and then the appearance from Chaplin made even better!!!
7:24 AAAHHHH!!! You triggered my Trypophobia.
for those who think it's not a Christmas movie
forgot these elements
-Christmas music is played or sung from time to time
-Merry Christmas was said in the movie
-they have one of the prettiest Christmas tree's ever in that one building
-that sweater has the message colored red and says Ho Ho Ho
if all that isn't enough
F you its Die Hard
huh..what?..sorry, i cant hear you over this cat!
That was fun. I hope they do a First Viewing on Holiday In Handcuffs too.
*Do Dwayne Johnson's Skyscraper..*
You gotta review valiant from disney
I want to play your video game as Argyle.
This was adapted from a book (see the Lost in Adaptation clip about it.)
Apparently, if they wanted to make it more accurate, Willis could easily reprise the role.
8:00 I agree! I actually really wanted them to escape and win everything 🤭
I’ll take my chances with gas station donuts, I’m not afraid. I live next to Steve Urkel 😏
I'm convinced that Ratchet's original design in the 2002 Ratchet & Clank game was loosely based on Bruce Willis. Metropolis even looks a bit like the city from The Fifth Element....in fact, the more I think about it, Ratchet's character had that same everyman quality about him; when you first seem him he's struggling to get a rather bog standard spaceship up and running (bearing in mind spaceships are more commonplace in the Ratchet & Clank games).
It’s two days before Christmas and my dad, stepmom and I just finished Die Hard. We concluded that there are enough elements to make it a Christmas movie.
Also, Romans 3:23:
For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.
Not sure if that was planned, but good on you!
"I'm Chaplin and I love Hard Die!" 😹

There is a pretty fun Die Hard First Person Shooter from 2002. Not the best game in the world but you visit a lot of places from the movie. Aptly it's called "Die Hard: Nakatomi Plaza".
