List of The Nostalgia Critic episodes (season 3)

The Nostalgia Critic, an Internet reviewer, began his 2010 episodes, dubbed "Schwarzenegger Month", during which the Critic exclusively reviewed Arnold Schwarzenegger films. This was followed by a special 100th Episode, in which he reviewed the infamous Battlefield Earth.

In July, he reviewed The Room, but the review was taken down by the film's distributor Wiseau-Films for copyright infringement, to which he posted a response in a skit titled "The Tommy Wiseau Show", that mocks Wiseau for taking down the review. The review was eventually posted back on the site on December 2010.

ShortSummary=The Critic reviews End of Days (1999). He criticizes the plethora of plot holes, lackluster action, lack of horror, over-the-top science, far-fetched mathematical clues, and considers that the premise of Schwarzenegger fighting Satan had more potential. Note: The running gag "CAAATTTT!" debuts in this episode, used whenever a jump scare happens in a film that fails to be frightening. During the film, the camera cuts to a black cat yowling without warning, which the Critic dismisses as "the scariest non-scary thing I've ever seen".

Aux1=Doug Walker

AltTitle=The 100th Episode

Aux2=25:59

OriginalAirDate=

ShortSummary=The Critic reviews Battlefield Earth (2000) for his 100th episode, and heavily criticizes the plot, characters, constant use of angled camera shots and curtain wipes, John Travolta's over-the-top goofy acting, and overall stupidity. Special criticism is reserved for the villain's idea to beam a bomb to the Planet Psychlo and detonate it, which, due to the radioactive atmosphere of the planet, will cause the planet to blow up. This is supposedly found to be EXTREMELY inaccurate to the Critic, who finds it difficult to believe a race of violent people like this have never had an explosion necessary to blow up the planet. This leads the critic to initiate one of his biggest outbursts on the show (It was later explained in his list of "Top 11 F*Ups: Part 3" that the atmosphere was not radiation, but a reactive gas, and radiation is what would set the bomb off). It is also explained that the bomb's explosion would be a NUCLEAR one, thus the terms of what would happen are legitimate. However, the Critic still finds it extremely unlikely that such a violent, supposedly advanced race would not have discovered nuclear power before humans, leading him to re-enact the exact same outburst from this episode.

Note: Beginning with this episode, the best or worst line of the film reviewed is heard over the Channel Awesome logo. Channel Awesome Tag: John Travolta as Terl: "While you were still learning to SPELL YOUR NAME..."

He criticizes the dull acting of William Hurt and Matt LeBlanc, the squeaky-voiced acting of Lacey Chabert, the bad script, the horrible comedic timing, the bizarre set designs and is surprised that no one seems to realize that Gary Oldman's character is a villain.

Rob Walker

Aux1=Doug Walker

Aux2=21:52

OriginalAirDate=

ShortSummary=The Critic reviews Quest for Camelot (1998). He criticizes the film for lacking any true connection to the Arthurian Legend, the horrendous songs (except The Prayer), the bad jokes, the plot lacking explanations and filled with holes, the heroine who is in reality a Damsel in Distress, the constant ripping-off of Disney and the Rock Ogre that he felt was a rip-off of the Rock Bitter from The Never Ending Story. Special criticism is reserved for Ruber's line "The ogre's butt", the casting of Gary Oldman (which this film was released on the same year as Lost in Space which also stared him as another over the top villian), and the film being the creation of the hit song "The Prayer" while it doesn't match the background of the story. Channel Awesome Tag: Gary Oldman as Ruber: "The Ogre's Butt."

ShortSummary=The Critic reviews Home Alone 3 (1997). He finds the film having nothing to do with Home Alone, despite bearing the title and part of the theme, with unfunny gags, a poor script and a completely different cast of very stupid characters.

ShortSummary=The Critic reviews Free Willy (1993). While he does not view the film as terrible, he considers it a rehash of previous movies of a boy bonding with an animal, with hammy acting, cliched villain and some very annoying plot elements. At one point, he states that he believes that the only reason this movie was popular was because of the fact that Michael Jackson's "Will You Be There" was part of the film's soundtrack. However he does like a scene involving a henchman eating popcorn, due to its sinister delivery.

OriginalAirDate=

ShortSummary=The Critic reviews the Miramax version of The Thief and the Cobbler (1995). He criticizes the constant use of inner-monologues, inconsistent animation, bland songs, and finds the character of the princess too obvious. At the end he goes on to recommend the "Re-Cobbled Cut" of the film instead. At the end of the review, Vincent Price calls him to say that he planted a timed bomb set to go off in a couple of seconds, and blows up the critic.

Plot flaw: The Critic said that Matthew Broderick wasn't born when The Thief and the Cobbler began production. When in fact, Broderick was born before production began.

ShortSummary= In a parody of It's a Wonderful Life, the Critic, sick of reviewing nostalgic material, quits his job, vowing to never do another Nostalgia Critic video again. He is visited by a guardian angel, who shows him how his life would be if he had never existed. However, to the Critic's dismay, everyone's lives are better; The Cinema Snob is a pornographic film star, the Nostalgia Chick is a famous film director, Spoony has taken over the Critic's job, Linkara owns Marvel and DC Comics, and Angry Joe is president of the United States. At first this saddens the Critic, but upon realizing that he has made his own life better, he decides to return to work. However, his guardian angel, upon learning how much better his own life would be without the Critic, tries to kill the Critic. The Critic defeats his guardian angel by shooting him to death (With the angel realizing that God lied to him and that angels can be hurt, and thus, contradicting the Ten Commandments) and returns to his work, to the dismay of his fellow reviewers.
