Sad thing is, I have to agree with several of these entries. And I saw both Garfield and Chipmunks in theaters back in the day.

Like always, he comes off as way too salty for his own good. Nor does he seem to get that Viva Rock Vegas not only kept an actor (Rosie O'Donald in a vocal cameo), but is also a prequel, hence the new (shittier) actors. And Howard being in third? He probably should have gone with one of the dishonorable mentions like Ninja Turtles or Scooby-Doo or moved one of the others like Last Airbender or Smurfs to that spot. Also surprised he didn't place Revenge of the Fallen on there.
 
His "storyline skits" are so fucking cringy. Just get on with the review and stop trying to be this grand actor/writer/director/producer/hollywood god. He also contradicts himself in many of his videos to be "hip"; he said that the Animaniacs were his idols, then it was Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, then it was Tom and Jerry, now it's Rocky and Bullwinkle. Didn't he state in another video that he found R&B extremely annoying?
Don't you know, Doug Walker is the next Spielberg! (in his mind anyways)

As for Rocky and Bullwinkle being his idols, it was just him doing a (really bad) homage to Amadeus.

Doug Walker, the man who hates Seltzerberg movies but loves putting in random pop culture references in lieu of jokes.
 
While we're on the subject of PhantomStrider, I remember that I watched "Top 10 Worst Cartoon Network Shows" and almost immediately knew he was one of those critics. (I'm not entirely sure why I gave him the benefit of the doubt in the first place, frankly.)

Pretty much all you need to know about this guy is that he unironically said:
Uncle Grandpa is so bad that it actually makes Steven Universe bad

* Having a Top 10 list where the interstitial "number X" segments go on for like 5 seconds. It doesn't seem like a lot, but to me it kills the flow of the video very quickly.
* Shoving a fair use disclaimer at the front of a video consisting entirely of copyrighted footage.
* Contradicting yourself - in Strider's case, declaring that he'll respect the opinion of those who like stuff that he doesn't before harshly insulting the very first show on the list.
* And most critically: ridiculous hyperbole about your emotions about children's entertainment. Calm the fuck down, they aren't that important - especially to someone at least a decade older than the target audience.

So, he's basically Mr. Enter if he used Adobe Premiere instead of Movie Maker and only did Top 10 lists.

I've always considered Strider as a low-rent knockoff of early Mr. Enter (because even he knew when to stop being super spergy to some degree). And yet, I doubt that Strider will ever get the hint. The way his lists are paced reminds me of CA's Top [insert number here] lists (especially Doug and Lewis's) because of the clips and length between entries. Though that's a problem with Top 10s in general, not just Strider or CA.

The fact that he's so easily offended or doesn't even do the barest amount of research doesn't make his case any better, realistically.

Why did you see those in theaters...? You poor bastard.
I was an impressionable little suck back in the day.

That, and I was kinda forced to see Alvin.
 
How can someone be forced to see Alvin & The Chipmunks?
Someone else wanted to see it, and I just kind of got dragged along. Garfield was all me though.

I remember practically immediately after seeing it. I could not stop hearing "Yippee-Kai-Aye Mamasita" from the guy I've talked about in the Personal Lolcows thread (the one who thinks he was Freddy Kruger and wouldn't stop making siren noises even when told by teachers).
 
Looks like Film Brain is in Chicago and GodDAAYYUM!

His baldness has gotten so bad, half the comments are about his hair.

Matty even acknowledged it on Twitter.

Love how The Walkers' hairlines are receding, but they at least have the decency to wear hats. Matt's straight up balding, and won't shave it or cover it up.
 
I know right? Brad shaved his head when he started balding, why doesn't Matt? Maybe grow a compensator, like a hipster beard or a Bandito stache. :P

What bothers me most about Mat doing nothing about his hair is the fact he said "I have to deal with it, so do you." I just... Mathew, no, you really don't have to just deal with it if there are fixes that can make you look better and maybe feel better about yourself, you daft prat. I'll never understand why people so deliberately avoid taking steps that might improve their quality of living because they think it's feeding the trolls or whatever.
 
He would look better if he just shaves it.
Balding just doesn't look good period. A bald guy can make it work. A balding guy just looks like...

that.

Yeah, I mean seriously, it doesn't cost much to buy a hat.

The why baffles me to no end, and the fact he won't change it is annoying considering that with the bald, he looks like he's 20 years older than he should be.
