Pretty good review, but two things that stuck out the first being that once the Critic learned that Neo's name was Tom Anderson that was so begging for a Beavis and Butt-Head reference, second that giant bunny rabbit show was the 1972 B-movie classic "Night of The Lepus." (A film about giant mutant rabbits terrorizing the mid west.) that's like basic cinema cheese 101, looks like someone needs to go seek out Brad for B-Movie reeducation.

He didn't convince me. I still think The Matrix is awesome.

I couldn't make it through. Doug's at his most full on pretentious/annoying in this one.

Another one of those reviews that fans will hate.

Ok... I just started and already I know him harping on Neo's regular name being Tom is going to get annoying quick.

This was one where the skits also really dragged down the review. I skipped most of them.
BUMP: He said that Kate Moss played Trinity. I mean that's just terrible quality control. One trip to IMDB and it's problem solved. How that gaff made it from script to screen I'll never know.

Lol, I just launched the video and paused it to let it load and already I found an Easter egg: among the falling letters, one group of them forms the word "dated". Pac-Man and the triforce also make appearances.

I'm disappointed at was a short vid for the Animatrix. I felt he could have said more.

Alright, he is insufferable in The Matrix Reloaded review. Had to turn it off.

Alright, he is insufferable in The Matrix Reloaded review. Had to turn it off. I can see why. He's become really annoying with making a point to call Neo 'Tom'. It's not like anyone even called him that in any of the movies. He's just doing it to be annoying. Also his complaint about Neo flying "halfway around the world" to save Morpheus and the Key Maker is so idiotic. It's clearly stated in the movie that the mansion in the mountains was 500 miles from the city, unless he thinks the world is only 1000 miles wide. Also he said Neo should just go back the way he came, he did and it didn't work. Again, this was all very clearly shown in the movie. There's making a point, then they're just blatantly ignoring obvious details to complain. |

I was kinda looking forward to seeing what he did for Matrix month, but this is the second video I've bailed on a few minutes in (The Animatrix one wasn't bad, since he wasn't just annoying with it and actually enjoyed some stuff); so I think I'll give the next review a pass.

I got to the line where he asks why the bunch of Smiths don't just form a giant monster.
Someone needs to bring the Path of Neo video game to Doug's attention.

Yeah, I got tired of it pretty quickly too and had to turn it off again. The Tom thing is still lame... why is it shocking that the character who at the start of the movies was basically a boring office drone has an average name? How much do you want to bet these are some of those videos that he thinks are genius? |

Like bashing TMZ for being shallow, it "cleanses their souls" After that, the Matrix being pretentious, he can do a series on how Michael Bay likes to blow things up. |
