18:32 Yes, the movie should totally be about her. Imagine it like this, she gets paralysed in a weapon test experiment. After that she uses military technology intended for controlling fighter jets directly with the mind to make herself a pair of robot legs legs. After the weapons turn up on the street, she makes a whole robot suit instead. Basically writes itself, doesn't it?
JoeRingo118 Well it depends on the type of grenade. Some have a pin, and clip release, others don't. I know grenades don't have timers, but they don't take long to detonate. That was a problem they had during the World Wars. The grenades took too long to explode, giving the enemy time to throw it back. But in this movie, it would've gone off within 3-5 seconds, not 10-15.
JoeRingo118 Most grenades do have something like a timer, a fuze. Specifically, most handgrenades have a 4-6 second fuze. Yes they can be rather imprecise at times, but they don't just wait around all day, they wouldn't be effective weapons if they did.
+Daniel Foolhardy No, the Killing Joke came out in 1988, and I think they want to put a character loosely based on Oracle, although Steel is part of Superman universe.
I went to the home for the disabled near me, smashed in a window and took a disabled woman against her will, just like my hero Steel. How come he didn't end up in court and I did? When asked why I did it, I told the judge it was just an example of 'shit happening'. He was not impressed.
It's hard to believe that there was once a time where Nostalgia Critic didn't have a billion guest stars, an over-elaborate and unnecessary storyline, and a long ass theme song. I miss that.
What elaborative stories? Most of his reviews even now continue to be self-contained and only some form part of an elaborative storyline. The theme song only lasts for about 30 seconds, in a 30 minute review. And what "billion guest stars"? Again, most of his reviews even now don't have guest stars, and it is not any different from the past where he had the other reviewers of TGWTG join him.
I know this is 9 years ago but yeah man. I remember being super stoked when NC was coming back in 2013 I believe but it wasn't the same. I haven't seen him since 2014 and am just now rewatching his older content which IMO holds up
I mean I watched up to Season 10 but stopped really watching it after that (once the #hangethechannel controversy was going on) which for that stuff was good while the older stuff I do watch it’s mostly in the background while the newer stuff isn’t bad does feel a tad overbloated at points but it’s alright.
Probably because he's 7 foot tall and can possibly pound a bastard into the ground if they even make an attempt to call the cops. Makes more sense than what the movie showed to us......
Really doesnt change that really the grenade would have exploded but I guess i shouldn't be surprised as Hollywood typically alters things including that humans fall and die after being shot even when its typically not shot in the major areas
He's a soldier and was never taught how to deal with grenades? That's odd. As a soldier of a very strong nation with strong tradition winning many battles and some wars? Even odder.
Parris Price so there is 2 different steels in DC? My bad i just remember nate being called steel as well on legends and was shocked to see steel has a movie
For some reason, better or worse, I have this image of Shaq playing Cyborg from Teen Titans after watching this movie. I doubt he'd play it well because… Shaq, but he both looks and acts closer to Cyborg (if you call it acting). Edit: One year later, I apologize for missing a prime joke of Shaq being half robotic in acting.
Dennis Williams Well, Cyborg's confirmed for Superman v Batman (or whatever it's titled). I imagine his reception there could play a part in whether or not they think people want a new Teen Titans movie. And I mean a TT movie, not a TTG movie.
Gotta love that scene about the internet. It's hard to believe with how deeply it's rooted in our culture now that not 20-years ago they had to stick a scene like that in the movie because there were enough people unfamiliar with it that they actually needed it spelled out.
It's Steel minus the Rocket Boots, the cape, the Superman 'S' on the chest, EXTREMELY underpowered hammer. They raped a superhero that had franchise potential.
Kirbivski The movie or the character, because if it's character, you're no more correct than the folks who say Farcry is Skyrim with guns. Heck, you're no more correct than the folks who said Fallout 3 was Oblivion with guns.
This movie has a 12% rating on Rotten Tomatoes while Shaq's previous movie,Kazaam,has a R.T. rating of 6%.....so there are clearly a handful of people out there who can put up with this movie
It's really not that hard for people in wheelchairs to pull themselves off the ground. They build massive upper-body strength from being in- ...I just realized what I'm doing. Excuse me while I go sob in the shower for several hours.
+ChickenPika Sorry but that is very incorrect. It completely depends on why you are using a wheelchair. A huge proportion of people who use wheelchairs, including myself and several friends, have problems with their upper body as well. Some can't even move themselves at all. The people with no upper body problems use manual wheelchairs. She is seen using an electric wheelchair. That strongly suggests she has upper body problems.
Shaquille O'Neal: Phenomenal Basketball player - absolutely Incredibly intelligent investor and entrepreneur - surprising but true Great actor - AHAHAHAHAHA no
When I was a kid I loved this movie. The idea of a superhero with armor that was built in a garbage dump made it very believable. Making you feel like all you need as a kid is to probably go to a dump and build armor with a blacksmith
Why do all the villians just insist on shooting the armored hero in the armor.HELLO the whole facial area is exposed and last I heard once you shoot someone in the head that's about all she wrote.Worse case scenario your would be hero would be sucking gerbers through a straw.
That internet thing they mentioned will never catch on. Just like Betamax is gonna kill VHS or the fact you'll never need a hard drive bigger than 2GB.
Am I the only one who would've thought that they would've made sparky the main character? having her friend make her a super suit to help her walk and fight crime, and she is a far better actor than shaquille 😐😐😐
Élan Metamorphia Ahh the side characters are nearly always more interesting. Luke Skywalker's a bland fuck, Harry potter's a bland fuck, Batman's arguably less interesting than the villains in his world, superman is the definition of vanilla.
I really miss the easy-to-impress nature of my childhood. I never noticed the obvious models in Star Wars and I honestly loved this movie when I was a kid. After watching this review I don't know how it entertained me so well.
Nostalgia Critic's old reviews are the best. They always managed to make me laugh, and that's hard to do. It's sucks that his new reviews aren't nearly as funny.
Shaq as Wonder Woman?!?!? MY EYES!!!! OH GOD, MY EYES!!!! WHY?!? WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS HORRIBLE, EVIL, SICK, TWISTED, UN HOLY ATROCITY?!?!? WHYYYYYYYYYY?!?!?!?!?
I remember I saw my dad watching Steel years ago on TV. I had no idea what it was, but all i watched was the part with that bubble gun thing being used up to the ending of the court room scene. After that, I walked away and played Castlevania 4 for the 50th time lel
Well on the upside he played a practically unknown super hero part of the super family with power girl super-girl super-boy and super-man but he became more known with the 52 series that took place after infinte crisis
It's 2016 (or 2015 depending on when the comment made). Justice League and Batman The Brave and The Bold finished airing. DC New 52 explains the inherent logic behind being the "fastest swimmer" (which means you must be pretty fucking strong to swim at an incredible pace in depths where normal people will lose control of their muscles). And yet still more Aquaman is useless jokes. What's next, Ant-Man is useless? Cause Avengers EMH and the Ant-Man movie pretty much sees the character as a weak loser.
I'm legitimately surprised that the Critic never made any jokes around the fact that the arms- dealer guy (The one whose hair the Critic said reminded him of a Cocker Spaniel) was named "Big Willy." When my younger brother and I saw that ridiculous film as teens, we got a LOT of laughs out of that name, especially considering how the other characters say that name so seriously.
I kind of like that theme of Steel. It sounds really cool. I actually kind of hope they will make something like this but better. A superhero who on the surface is actually very unimpressive but still get's the job done.
Does this guy not know how to make a souffle? It's like a bread balloon- and that's fragile as fuck. A loud noise can pop your bread balloon and ruin your souffle.
Because it's a throwaway gag about how the "hero" is loud and dumb. The souffle ain't the problem, man, it's just a symptom. Deadpool can make pancakes without ruining a movie.
+Tycho Machinate Mercenary does it have to harden first or something? Because they were giving a round of applause in front of it and nothing happened.
+syxodude91 basically, yeah. it turns all flaky, like... how bread goes from doughy and malleable to having a crust, kinda? Like a single layer of paper thin crust.
A wise man once said about acting basketball players, "Just as I [said wise mine] ,actor, would never try to join an NBA team just because I'm famous. I [said wise man] would very much appreciate it, if professional basketball players would STAY THE @$%# OUT OF MOVIES!!!!!!"
18:32 Yes, the movie should totally be about her.
Imagine it like this, she gets paralysed in a weapon test experiment. After that she uses military technology intended for controlling fighter jets directly with the mind to make herself a pair of robot legs legs. After the weapons turn up on the street, she makes a whole robot suit instead. Basically writes itself, doesn't it?
+Schwarzer Ritter Except this is a superhero movie from the nineties. You can't make a woman the main lead. Silly Schwarzer...
Ya, but the problem is Sparky is a girl, Steel is actually a guy
Wait, that doesn't matter Sparky would make an amazing super-hero than Shaq as Steel
+Dark Zombi better* than
+Schwarzer Ritter You should get some of that SJW money and write yourself a progressive comic.
YES!
"i can't imagine how you feel."
"no, you can't."
"you're right, i can't."
uh, what now?
+nph53 Uhh, you're under arrest
I don't know, to me the first one sounds pretty much like can or could, but not like can't.
Yes, he did say "can". Still, a nice turn-around in a dialog :D
nph53 South Park did it.
Stan vs Token
Legends version is way better
"..Uh. you're under arrest."
That sequence made my day.
And the hand grenade free-throw was even better!
OMG! That grenade would've went off in less than 3 seconds after the guy threw it. I did like the look on that guys face when he goes "Noo!" BOOM!
JoeRingo118
Well it depends on the type of grenade. Some have a pin, and clip release, others don't. I know grenades don't have timers, but they don't take long to detonate.

Good point.
"Its on now!"
"You think you gonna get away from me, but you're not, cause it's on."
Lost my shit.
"Eat the hot dog, don't be one."
If this isn't someone's senior yearbook quote then something is terribly wrong.
"Where'd that son of a butt go?"
I'm suprised that line got by.
I looked up the phrase Son of a Butt and the first result will scar me for life
Why did you do it then?
curiosity
Ah. *Sweatdrops*
I, too, will now look up that phrase.
Wait a minute a female ally in a wheelchair that helps the hero while he is out in the field. THAT'S ORACLE FROM BATMAN!!!!!!!
+Red Hood oh hi red hood!
or Bentley from Sly Cooper XD
+Red Hood Didn't the book come out in 84?
+Daniel Foolhardy No, the Killing Joke came out in 1988, and I think they want to put a character loosely based on Oracle, although Steel is part of Superman universe.
SunnyD Wukong Who's also a redhead.
I went to the home for the disabled near me, smashed in a window and took a disabled woman against her will, just like my hero Steel. How come he didn't end up in court and I did? When asked why I did it, I told the judge it was just an example of 'shit happening'. He was not impressed.
Did you suffer from eyebrow spasms when you said that line? Because for it to work, you have to.
Possibly one of the best comments I've ever read on RUclips

Apostol407 Relax, I was just joking. Nostalgia Critic is awesome.
@@grouchogrumble6760 And then he did The Wall lol
I know this is 9 years ago but yeah man. I remember being super stoked when NC was coming back in 2013 I believe but it wasn't the same. I haven't seen him since 2014 and am just now rewatching his older content which IMO holds up
I mean I watched up to Season 10 but stopped really watching it after that (once the #hangethechannel controversy was going on) which for that stuff was good while the older stuff I do watch it’s mostly in the background while the newer stuff isn’t bad does feel a tad overbloated at points but it’s alright.
the thing i want to know is how steel was arrested for shitty cosplay and not being arrested for kidnapping a crippled woman against her will
Reasons
Probably because he's 7 foot tall and can possibly pound a bastard into the ground if they even make an attempt to call the cops.
Makes more sense than what the movie showed to us......
Biodeamon Because she didn't press charges.
Biodeamon you can't arrest Shaq baby, he's got the shaqnosis
Ya
This is my masters thesis on why, "Shaquille O'Neal's acting career," is the best Cards Against Humanity card.
Simon Martin "A big black dick"
"Shaq's acting career"
There's not that much difference really.
+Simon Martin In my experience, "Grandpa's ashes:" lead to a trove of hilarity on many cards.
No card will ever top "The Hawaiian goddess Kapo and her detachable flying vagina."
Love that shaq is so ok with the fact he sux at free throws he even let them use it as a joke in a movie with him
To be honest, that'd probably be close to my exact reaction if I just realized a grenade was about to explode right in front of me.
+ChickenPika "NUAOO!"
Really doesnt change that really the grenade would have exploded but I guess i shouldn't be surprised as Hollywood typically alters things including that humans fall and die after being shot even when its typically not shot in the major areas
It was a Basketball joke cus really why the fuck would Shaq be good at anything instead of getting easy dunks and pissing off Kobe Byrant.
17:43 "Uh, you're under arrest." That is one of the best jokes in Nostalgia Critic, ever.
He's a soldier and was never taught how to deal with grenades? That's odd. As a soldier of a very strong nation with strong tradition winning many battles and some wars? Even odder.
About shaq throwing a granade to the hole was an inside joke to his bad free throws in nba lmao
Oh.
baabaaer yes thats why he said "I never made these (free throws)" haha
these old reviews are just too good!!!!! absolutely hilarious!!!!!
I never even knew this movie existed until just now. Those where happier days...
Xylarxcode i was shocked to find out steel on legends of tomorrow had a movie. I can see why noone talks about this movie vs legends
Parris Price so there is 2 different steels in DC? My bad i just remember nate being called steel as well on legends and was shocked to see steel has a movie
"Damn, he's very unimpressively getting away!" LOL
For some reason, better or worse, I have this image of Shaq playing Cyborg from Teen Titans after watching this movie.
I doubt he'd play it well because… Shaq, but he both looks and acts closer to Cyborg (if you call it acting).
Edit: One year later, I apologize for missing a prime joke of Shaq being half robotic in acting.
This raises the question of WHY they aren't making a Teen Titans movie, but then I remember that it would probably suck.
Dennis Williams Well, Cyborg's confirmed for Superman v Batman (or whatever it's titled).
I imagine his reception there could play a part in whether or not they think people want a new Teen Titans movie.
And I mean a TT movie, not a TTG movie.
Samuel L jackson is shaft
Ray Fisher is a better Cyborg than Shaq.
Gotta love that scene about the internet. It's hard to believe with how deeply it's rooted in our culture now that not 20-years ago they had to stick a scene like that in the movie because there were enough people unfamiliar with it that they actually needed it spelled out.
It's Steel minus the Rocket Boots, the cape, the Superman 'S' on the chest, EXTREMELY underpowered hammer. They raped a superhero that had franchise potential.
probably because the last movie they made about a member of the Superman extended family, who wasn't Superman, it didn't turn out so well!
you mean a shitty blatant rip-off of Iron Man
Kirbivski
Yeah... any objections, even legitimatize ones you had about Steel were thrown out the window when you said, 'blatant rip-off of Iron Man.'
VunderGuy prove me wrong
Kirbivski
The movie or the character, because if it's character, you're no more correct than the folks who say Farcry is Skyrim with guns. Heck, you're no more correct than the folks who said Fallout 3 was Oblivion with guns.

So you're telling me this movie is TWICE as good as his previous venture! SCORE!
That Angry Joe line was hilarious!! You're the man!!
It's really not that hard for people in wheelchairs to pull themselves off the ground. They build massive upper-body strength from being in-
...I just realized what I'm doing. Excuse me while I go sob in the shower for several hours.
I've seen some guy in a wheelchair in a gym before. He was pretty strong.
+ChickenPika Sorry but that is very incorrect. It completely depends on why you are using a wheelchair. A huge proportion of people who use wheelchairs, including myself and several friends, have problems with their upper body as well. Some can't even move themselves at all. The people with no upper body problems use manual wheelchairs. She is seen using an electric wheelchair. That strongly suggests she has upper body problems.
Oh, that makes sense, actually. Particularly if you're in a wheelchair because of something like an explosion, like the character here.
I thought it was funny hahaha
15:55
11:52
I'd like to think that that face was Shaq's actual reaction to hearing that joke.
Shaquille O'Neal:
Phenomenal Basketball player - absolutely
Incredibly intelligent investor and entrepreneur - surprising but true
Great actor - AHAHAHAHAHA no
"I didn't know Angry Joe was in this movie!" LOL
I wonder if he ever saw this review to hear that ? XD
NC's Shaq impression is fucking gold!!
Sparks was definitely the best part of this. She needed her own movie.
You'd think someone who supposedly played for the NBA could at least run realistically. What the hell was that crap on the roof.
Haha he is like 320 pounds and 7'2" and wearing a clunky rubber suit.
Wait... "...supposedly played for the NBA"?? Is there a debate out there about whether or not Shaq played in the NBA?
There's debate as to whether or not he earned it.
Shaq got more rings than LeBron
I would like to see Bruce get Barbara back into helping him fight crime the way Shaq does for Sparks.
I do like Shaq getting Sparky out of the hospital: I imagine Shaq would do that for a buddy of his.
"Damn! He's... very unimpressively... getting away!"
19:26
Actually, to the films credit, they actually acknowledge Shaque being trash at basketball.
HAHAHHAAH GOOD 1 SCRAPPY UR A FUNNY PUP
I know, I know. Puppy Power.
Take away the suit, what are you?
Iron Man " A genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist. "
Steel " A lean, mean, lame catchphrasing machine."
NC kinda sounds like Johnny Bravo when he imitates Shaq
He's right, the funniest thing is that guy's reaction to the grenade lol
Make fun of the costume/acting all you want, but I'd be terrified of Shaquille O'Neal coming at me with a sledgehammer...
Skyrimosity You have a point there XDD
Critic referenced Bolt, everybody go home, he won the internet!
jayblade2000 dont get it
I think it was "You don't know the power of styrafoam!"
+jayblade2000 it was
When I was a kid I loved this movie. The idea of a superhero with armor that was built in a garbage dump made it very believable. Making you feel like all you need as a kid is to probably go to a dump and build armor with a blacksmith
So Sparky in this movie is pretty much Oracle.
....if she had lazer guns.
Basically.
Hey, to be fair burger burgers are pretty delicious.
Especially when followed by Beer beers!
+19cosmo91 with a side of fry fries.
And Pepsi-Pepsi is even better XD
+19cosmo91 Be sure to go the Tavern tavern.
Especially washed down with beer beer
"CHANGE!? YA GOT CHA- oh my god, they're filming a shaq movie, I'm out of here!"
I hope they bring Shaq back for the Justice League movie!
Why do all the villians just insist on shooting the armored hero in the armor.HELLO the whole facial area is exposed and last I heard once you shoot someone in the head that's about all she wrote.Worse case scenario your would be hero would be sucking gerbers through a straw.
Lol well at least with Steel they would have the outside chassis already.done for them.
OtomeSound
hehehe Yeah I almost forgot how gruesome Murphy's death was.I had loved that movie I'm wondering how good the remake is going to be?
*****
You... DO know that Robocop's face is just for show and that there's more armor underneath it, right?
That internet thing they mentioned will never catch on. Just like Betamax is gonna kill VHS or the fact you'll never need a hard drive bigger than 2GB.
Sorry bad guy of the movie, but the internet will never catch on. Just trust me, it'll never catch on. Ever.
yep never in a million years, its just a stupid thing that will pass:P
Definitely, never.. yup.. uhum...
But Interfernet, boy that is the stuff.
BlackBunik yeah, that's forever
Am I the only one who would've thought that they would've made sparky the main character?
having her friend make her a super suit to help her walk and fight crime, and she is a far better actor than shaquille 😐😐😐
Élan Metamorphia Ahh the side characters are nearly always more interesting. Luke Skywalker's a bland fuck, Harry potter's a bland fuck, Batman's arguably less interesting than the villains in his world, superman is the definition of vanilla.
thagrammarnazi it's on.
Did I mention how on it is?
Because it's on!
ONNNNNN!!!!!!
I really miss the easy-to-impress nature of my childhood. I never noticed the obvious models in Star Wars and I honestly loved this movie when I was a kid. After watching this review I don't know how it entertained me so well.
If Shaquille plays an army inventor wouldn't that make him an engineer not an army soilder?
Yep, he's an army soldier because of crappy writing
Dark Zombi
I think I spelled the name wrong but glad you see my point
Yes but I'm guessing he intentionally did that to highlight how awful this piece of garbage is.
Seriously tho a movie about a wheelchair bound super smart badass with guns on her chair as the hero would've been way more interesting!
On-ness levels set to maximum.
omg lmao at the Angry Joe reference!
The only compliment one can give this is that the movie is pretty great, very triumphant and befitting for a superhero clad in a metal suit.
He jokes, but the soufflé plot was the best part
I can't watch this without thinking of the vine with Shaq and that cat wiggling.....
critic's "angry shaq" voice is so fucking funny
19:29 "NOO~!!!"
I fucking lost my shit
you know i keep watching this video from time to time and i always get a laugh out of this episode LOL :D
Nostalgia Critic's old reviews are the best. They always managed to make me laugh, and that's hard to do. It's sucks that his new reviews aren't nearly as funny.
Someone mentioned the Batcave - Steel is DC - I think you know what this means. Shaq must be featured in the Justice League movie.
Shaq as Wonder Woman?!?!?
MY EYES!!!! OH GOD, MY EYES!!!! WHY?!? WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS HORRIBLE, EVIL, SICK, TWISTED, UN HOLY ATROCITY?!?!? WHYYYYYYYYYY?!?!?!?!?
If by unholy atrocity you mean fap material then yes, it is an unholy atrocity.
Aww come on it can't be that ba-----------
AHH F*** AHH F*** AHH F*** AHH F***
WHYYYYYYYYYYYY D: WTAF MY EYES
THEIR BLEEDING!!!!!
thank god such things don't hunt my nightmares.
just as well Blade saved the day a few years later. :)
Well, 1 year later. At least Blade didn't make me cringe. It was great ;)
+Remy "Gambit" LeBeau what's Blade? Is it good?
Dark Zombi Productions It's based off a Marvel comics character. And yes, it's pretty good. Highly recommend it.
+Remy "Gambit" LeBeau Based on the success the Blade film is actually BETTER than the Blade comics.
That depends. Read the series they did along the same time as Blade II, you'll find it's actually pretty good, as well as graphic to fuck!
Shaq Fu, Kazaam, and Steel are Shaq's greatest crime against humanity
I remember I saw my dad watching Steel years ago on TV. I had no idea what it was, but all i watched was the part with that bubble gun thing being used up to the ending of the court room scene. After that, I walked away and played Castlevania 4 for the 50th time lel
Hey guys, how do you check the time? "Its On" a clock
Well on the upside he played a practically unknown super hero part of the super family with power girl super-girl super-boy and super-man but he became more known with the 52 series that took place after infinte crisis
Ray J did a much better performance in that indie film he did with Kim Kardashian.
I have to say what ray j did in this movie was innocent compared to what he unleashed in his "indie" film
Lynn Holston talk about "hammer time."
Lynn Holston What indie film?
ULTRADJ4EVER It's a sex tape. He is being sarcastic.
Chris Bowman
Ah, I get it.
I genuinely laughed when he said "I never make these" in the room with the grenade.
OH MY GAWD.
SHE PERFECTED THE SOUFFLE
[my life has meaning again]
This actually seems like it would be a good movie with a few minor changes.
The story is there, it just needs tweaked.
Doug, if you thought this movie was fun or funny. Review Meteor man.
This movie didn't kill it, it wasn't that bit to begin with. "Batman & Robin" killed the sub genre until "Blade" revived it.
"Leave acting to actors" Yeah, that's a lesson Nostalgia Critic needs to learn too.
Love Steel's theme. One thing they got right.
This movie makes Aquaman look like a powerful hero
Aquaman IS powerful. He's kind of silly, but he is basically the Thor of the Ocean... he can make frigging Sharknados.
+Lucariogamer14 IHE, do you need something?
It's 2016 (or 2015 depending on when the comment made). Justice League and Batman The Brave and The Bold finished airing. DC New 52 explains the inherent logic behind being the "fastest swimmer" (which means you must be pretty fucking strong to swim at an incredible pace in depths where normal people will lose control of their muscles). And yet still more Aquaman is useless jokes.
What's next, Ant-Man is useless? Cause Avengers EMH and the Ant-Man movie pretty much sees the character as a weak loser.
+Lucariogamer14 Um New 52 Aquaman says hi.
Lucariogamer14 Considering he commands about 75% of the
planet's surface...
10:20 Well, we don't really have the license for the Oracle character or even Barbara Gordon so... yeah you'll do fine.
They had Barbara Wilson, though!
I thought that Matthew Broderick was the master of cinematic blandness :0
It's so weird seeing Sparky since the actress played Monica Reyes in X Files seasons 8 and 9 which I'm really fond of
8:15 Nostalgia Critic would be surprised at how many people actually do that.
Did I mention it's on, it's on
In his career I bet this is his biggest regret
At least Steel isn't Captain Douchemurica, who ditches everyone he's supposed to save!
the 1990's one
Don05 can you pull over, I feel sick
TheObsidianX No I'm ditching you now
Well Captain America is a douche especially in Civil War because of his gay love for Bucky.
Legends is a way better version
I'm legitimately surprised that the Critic never made any jokes around the fact that the arms- dealer guy (The one whose hair the Critic said reminded him of a Cocker Spaniel) was named "Big Willy." When my younger brother and I saw that ridiculous film as teens, we got a LOT of laughs out of that name, especially considering how the other characters say that name so seriously.
Doug's fake laugh is the funniest thing ever
Man of Steel is better than Steel
TouhouFather Nolan didn't direct Man of Steel, he was only the producer. Zack Snyder directed it.
Most overrated filmmaker? Ever heard of Tim Burton?
Ville Tågefelt Baz Luhrmann is right up there too.
So true but that's a whole another story
Legends is better than steel. We should really be comparing it to legends since steel is not in man of steel but on legends
Actually as dumb as the movie is, souffles are so delicate that loud noises can stop them from rising properly. The movie at least got that right.
Sparks is literally Oracle from Arkham City
The scene where Steel leaves on the escalator is the highest point of the movie... Lol!
I remember Steel from DCAU. He was pretty badass in it, taking out Metallo like he was nothing in his first appearance.
And he was voiced by Michael Dorn!
9:48
...yyyyeah, not a very cool thing to say to a woman who just told you "no".
Shaq: This is a prime example of "shit happening".
No, this is a prime example of FORCING PEOPLE TO DO SOMETHING THEY REJECTED
13:26
WAIT
WAIT
WAIT
One of those bullets did hit him in the mouth and he didn,t feel it.
WTF
If you look really closely...the closest one in near his neck.
19:10, come on, your supposed to be an army guy, they teach you to use grenades in basic training.
I kind of like that theme of Steel. It sounds really cool.
I actually kind of hope they will make something like this but better. A superhero who on the surface is actually very unimpressive but still get's the job done.
I just watched "Throne of Atlantis" and thanks to this review I got the John Henry reference in it.
Does this guy not know how to make a souffle? It's like a bread balloon- and that's fragile as fuck. A loud noise can pop your bread balloon and ruin your souffle.
But why is it in a SUPER HERO MOVIE?!
Because it's a throwaway gag about how the "hero" is loud and dumb. The souffle ain't the problem, man, it's just a symptom. Deadpool can make pancakes without ruining a movie.
+Tycho Machinate Mercenary does it have to harden first or something? Because they were giving a round of applause in front of it and nothing happened.
+syxodude91 basically, yeah. it turns all flaky, like... how bread goes from doughy and malleable to having a crust, kinda? Like a single layer of paper thin crust.
A wise man once said about acting basketball players,
"Just as I [said wise mine] ,actor, would never try to join an NBA team just because I'm famous. I [said wise man] would very much appreciate it, if professional basketball players would STAY THE @$%# OUT OF MOVIES!!!!!!"
Wise Mine: "Just as-" *KABOOM*
This guy is like the homeless version of Iron Man.
Damn they killed this hero! They made Steel look like a promotion for Trojan condoms.
"NOOOOO!!!" ROFL!! That ONE bit makes the whole thing worth watching!!
