Why Vox's MCU Criticism Feels Empty
Our Commentary
Vox's critique of the MCU may feel empty, but at least it's not as hollow as my bank account after buying all those movie tickets. Time to start a GoFundMe for my Marvel addiction.
A Deep Dive Into the Plot Hole Rabbit Hole
Our Commentary
After watching this video, I'm starting to question every plot hole I've ever encountered in movies. Maybe they're just alternate dimensions leaking through...or maybe I'm just overthinking everything. Time to rewatch The Incredibles with a whole new perspective.
The Rise of Skywalker is an Embarrassment
Our Commentary
The Rise of Skywalker is like that awkward family reunion where everyone's trying too hard to impress each other, but it just ends up being cringeworthy. You'll need a lot more than just a lightsaber to fix this mess.

Our Commentary
Screen Rant's definition of "right" definitely takes a dark turn when discussing child-murdering villains. I guess morality is subjective, but yikes.
One of the Worst Takes on "Joker" Ever
Our Commentary
Screencrush's take on "Joker" is like trying to fit a square peg into a round hole, except the peg is just a clown nose and the hole is Oscar-worthy depth. 🤡🎥 #JokerMentality
The Worst Attempt to Criticise Avengers: Endgame Ever
Our Commentary
I think this video just committed the worst "criticism" of criticism I've ever seen - it's like a meta-critique of a critique. And now my brain hurts. Thanks, YouTube.
