He has the supervillain enemy who wants to defeat him, and he chooses to go back to superheroing despite his family being forced to live a normal life. At the same time, though, it is Bob’s actions that get the plot moving, so it does kind of earn a lot of the focus.

Incredible and His Family,” because most of the film focuses on him and his mid-life crisis, and I wouldn’t say that opinion is invalid. Doug Walker, the man behind the Nostalgia Critic webseries and a critic I greatly respect, once said that The Incredibles should have been retitled “Mr. How I feel about these characters: Well, considering that there are five characters here, I’ll go over them all briefly.īob, or Mr. Originally posted by thatchickwiththegifs ask me changethechannel channel awesome nostalgia critic opinion I probably won’t be clicking on a lot of Doug’s videos for a while either – I’d rather support the contributors who recently left the site (like Dom, Il Neige, Rocked, and Calluna) as well as those who spoke out against Channel Awesome’s maltreatment in the first place (like Lindsey and Linkara). I still respect Doug’s opinions on movies, as I have so often agreed with many of his conclusions in the past…but I must separate the work from the person now, at least until he tries to make up for the damage he’s done.įortunately for me, I haven’t visited Channel Awesome in a very long time and have only enjoyed their contributors’ videos through Youtube, and I certainly intend to keep doing that, rather than give the site any traffic. Patreon has given a lot of reviewers the chance to make money for their own original content, and I’m sure Doug can do the same with his own reviews if need be, even without his old alter-ego. As far as I’m concerned, if the NC name must die in order for Channel Awesome or Doug to cut the cord with Michaud and try to make amends, then it must be done. I realize one issue in the mix is that Mike Michaud apparently owns the rights to the Nostalgia Critic name, but I’m sorry, people would still support Doug even if he didn’t have that moniker AS LONG AS we knew he was sincerely trying to make things right. He passively stood by while a lot of these terrible things were happening and in some cases neglected to acknowledge other people’s feelings as well, and he needs to own that. Originally posted by thatchickwiththegifsįrom what I’ve gathered, I don’t think Doug Walker is fully to blame for most of what happened, but he does seem to have a problem with standing up to the people he loves and respects on behalf of others. Their non-apology was so flimsy and hollow that it’s almost laughable. But the thing I find the most upsetting is the lack of meaningful response from Channel Awesome to try to fix the problems it clearly has or even acknowledge them. The exploitation of hardworking people just to make money for the site, as well as the lack of sensitivity and even basic compassion by the owners of the site, is clearly symptomatic of big problems within the organization that must been dealt with both immediately and dramatically – namely by apologizing, compensating the victims, and firing those who engaged in the terrible behavior. The stories within are just horrific there’s no two ways about it.

I’m also a fan of other past producers like Lindsey Ellis/The Nostalgia Chick, Maven, ToddintheShadows, Oancitizen, Paw Dugan, and (most recently departed) the Dom and Calluna, as well as current producers like the Blockbuster Buster.īut…yeah, the document released is very troubling, indeed. I have always considered myself a fan of Doug Walker’s Nostalgia Critic videos and even some of his non-character stuff like his Disneycember series. Sigh…I knew someone would ask me this eventually.
