Crystal Skull review Commentary by ERod

[georgeson4]

nerdlinger for th FUCKING win !!! :)

[J0hnny0hm]

Having seen your review, I know you have good reasons to hate it.

I enjoy Crystal Skull the most in the Indy series. I was younger when I saw the other films, so I may need to revise my views by watching them again.

The Star Wars prequels are in a similar niche, but I did manage to watch the Phantom Menace again recently (and reviews of it) and can see a lot of flaws with it now that I really look. It's fascinating.

I'll do my own review on it in the future, but I still can't wait for yours.

[1cat294]

this movie is own of my guilty pleasures

[FrontAlleyBoys]

So is this film your least favorite Spielberg movie?

[ERod2010]

@FrontAlleyBoys Sure, I even like it less than A.I.

[walkerchuck1993]

Can you do a review commentary on Looney Tunes: Back in Action?

[ERod2010]

@walkerchuck1993 sure.

[Noben]

5:30 But like.. you are that damn good.

[dekead]

Hm, in which order do you like the original trilogy films?

[ERod2010]

@dekead from best to not so best: Raiders, Crusade, Doom (yes, I know Crusade is better than Raiders, but I still like Raiders more)

[Hyperkid37]

Nerdlinger commentary cameo FTW!

[RDeathmark]

i don't love this movie, but i can watch it without hating it, it's about on the same level, a little lower, than the temple of doom movie in my opinion.

[DKrules9]

I actually liked Crystal Skull. Granted it's not as good as the original trilogy, but I liked it.

[Asahamana]

So you haven't seen Spoony's Vlogs about this movie? Trust me they are pure hate. He hated this movie so much that in order to get sleep he had to do another Vlog where he continued his rage over this movie. And that's a lot of hate.

[ERod2010]

@Asahamana I can relate.

[elbryan42]

Another great commentary. Of all your side charactcers, I have to say that Nerdlinger's my fave. :)

Personally, I think this movie is okay, but not many movies nowadays are what I'd consider great. The only time I get really angry about a movie/game is when it's overhyped, and there's plenty of flaws with it. So many people jump on the bandwagon, and aren't willing to listen to reason. Heck, even though Doom is my (one of my) favorite game series of all time, I don't hate the movie THAT much.

[pleeppleep]

despite your protests, i still feel compelled to write you the longest essay i can manage on the finer points of this film...  well.......

the hat was still pretty cool

.....

yeah, thats all i got

[ERod2010]

@pleeppleep I couldn't have articulated the positive properties of this film in such illustrious words. Good job.

[harrymcfly56]

So your saying that the only reason I liked this movie is because I'm not much of an Indiana Jones fan, hey that's fine. Oddly, of all the movies I've seen that would get fanboys angry, the one I hate the most is Wanted, and I never even read the comics, it was just that bad.

[xill22]

being good and having fans are not that much related unfortunately :)

i think your eps were good from the start. like in a lot of great series, you dont really notice which one is the first and wonder how they got so much right the first time.

[StiffMeister1981]

Oh Erod... do you know that George Lucas and Steven Spielberg working on the script to indiana jones 5 ? starring shia la beaouf :P

I can se your reaction '' fuck this'' haha

[EmoKidRH]

Could you do a commentary on the Trinity Of Evil episodes?

[ERod2010]

@EmoKidRH those are among the first 6 episodes, so yes.

[imaginelexi85]

if you weren't a big indiana jones fan do you think that you wouldn't hate it as much?

[ERod2010]

@imaginelexi85 No I wouldn't, and that's the point of the Blockbuster Buster to bitch about these things.

[KyrieLeisonM]

I need to get around to watching Indiana Jones one of these days... Just to say I've seen it. Otherwise, awesome commentary. Two questions: one. Where did you come up with El Lover? two. What was your thought process going into The Last Airbender review other than just watching some of the show?

[AdamOfNebb]

I know what you mean about thinking you'd be an instant hit. When I started sketch comedy, I thought the same thing, and I was awful back then. Like, really, really unfunny.

[benway20]

I don't hate this movie, but I do think it's the worst of the Indiana Jones movies.

[Conspirator19]

If you get more popular, would you do a spin-off series like a Comic of the title cards?

Is Phantom Menance the same status as this film for you, since it's in the Intro?

And very informative commentaries, very well done

[Zhigwich]

Would you ever consider doing a top 10 or more in your opinion of the most annoying and worst actors in movies you've seen? XD

[ERod2010]

@Zhigwich No.

[Zhigwich]

@ERod2010 You've "busted" my dreams!? D:

Nah, that's fine. Keep doing what you're doing. :)

[favselector]

I'm definitely one of the guys that thinks the anger is real in your reviews

though that'll probably lessen now but not my enjoyment ^_^

am i right in assuming that you'll be talking more about TGWTG when commentating on Eragon

[ApocalypticAang]

@favselector "I'm definitely one of the guys that thinks the anger is real in your reviews"

I think the anger is real-- if a movie is just messy/stupid, then E-Rod will mostly laugh/snark at it... But like he said, E-Rod just ups the volume/anger 10x or so.

[MrThePandaman]

I'd like to know what your thoughts are on you and Filmbrain reviewing many of the same movies by coincidence.

[4tutoralcom]

Wearily enough ERod, i would have never had found out about your reviews if you never said Linkara's theme song.

It was posted on the Atop The Forth Wall Facebook fan page that i am apart of. all it said was "check this guy out you wont regret it"

Lets just say i didn't regret it and i am hooked.

[ERod2010]

@4tutoralcom Interesting.

[TheHumanDragonfly]

You should do a video of what you think are the top 10 worst movies

[Tadicuslegion78]

your title cards...how do you come up with them? do you do them yourselves or does a friend? and how long does a title card take?

[Nightridergamer]

I know you talking to action figures :) its okay dude lol jk

I feel very un american, but i never watched idiana jones

[ERod2010]

@Nightridergamer Then we have nothing to argue about, and that's a good thing.

[Tachikawa92]

10 out of 100 subscribers are the chosen ones. :b

[fangiresaga]

I know you got tired of this question a long time ago dude but, when are you gonna do that Jungle Book movie, the one with Mogley as an adult? I'm sorry to bring that up and I know you have alot on your plate but, me and a dozen of old jungle book fans are just dying to see that movie get destroyed.

[ERod2010]

@fangiresaga As soon as i get ahold of it, if you actually send me the DVD, it will expedite the process.

[JdeppHatter17]

I just noticed, you have Thumbelina on your DVD shelf in your intro clips...... :D might be a kids movie but I freakin love it...I'm a total Disney freak...if you can't tell. Anyway, love the commentaries so far!

[ERod2010]

@JdeppHatter17 What can I say I love Charo.

[WhatNeverWas]

Well i know this might not happen but if i may make a suggestions...maybe reviewing or "busting" beyond the realm of film into that of say bad video games or even internet videos...like the crappy video maker leaving this very comment your reading....self burning ftw

[nightowl685]

you should do a commentary over one of these commentary videos sometimes, describing what your feelings were while making the commentary, and how you put the commentary together. At that point, the universe will explode, in one of those ways that Doc Brown always warned us about, lol:)

[fireballin86]

death to the haters!!!!!!

mwahahahahahahaha

[mwong666]

The first time I saw your review was when I saw the Site Favourites on TGWTGs. Instantly enjoyed it. But yea, stuff like this takes time when there's so many reviewers out there nowadays.

[ZadkielRequiem]

Ok I have to agree with you, that movie was a huge disrespect to the Indiana Jones legacy, Indiana Jones is one of the best characters I've seen he's one of my favorite characters right along with Batman, and well I have to admit I'm right at the middle of your 2 types of Fans, I know you do it for fun, but you pretty much voice our rant, and your knowledge of movies makes you perfect to do these reviews, and well my question is (sorry long comment) how did Fadora Freddy came to be?
