I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Just so...so bad

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

If you're a fan of the Nostalgia Critic, or any of the other Channel Awesome critics, the chances are you will like this pretty well. This movie is filled with jokes and it's one big satire of multiple movies. The Nostalgia Critic (Doug Walker) gets together all the reviewers of Channel Awesome to search for a treasure in this big role playing game put together by a nerd named Chuck Jaffers (Rob Walker). With all the reviewers dressed as fantasy characters and almost non-stop in-jokes, Suburban Knights pretty much spoofs the fantasy genre, and eventually itself. You really have to be a fan of Channel Awesome to get everything, but if you are you'll most likely find this incredibly funny. I highly recommend this to the fans.

This is the second of the Nostalgia Critic Anniversary specials that I have sat down and watched. Is this as good as To Boldly Flee? No. It isn't, but then again this is funny on it's own merits.The plot is that The Nostalgia Critic tricks every reviewer on ThatGuyWithTheGlasses.com, believing they have won cars. Instead he asks them to join him on a quest to find an ancient glove that is presumably magic. But they soon realise that magic is real and they have to overcome obstacles.Now, I think I might have to elaborate on why this isn't as good as To Boldly Flee. First of all the final fight is so drawn out that it quickly becomes boring. Oh and Doug Walker isn't that great when it comes to directing action either. I am not kidding, the fight lasts for around 10 minutes. The only other complaint in my eyes is introducing the villain's back-story too late in the piece.Onto what I liked, the visual effects are actually pretty good for a bunch of internet critics directing a movie. They are better than in To Boldly Flee. But then again this doesn't have any CGI Science Fiction animation so you could say in this the visual effects were needed less.The humour in this can also get a little flat at a few jokes. I mean, don't get me wrong, some jokes were hilarious. Stuff like Obscurus Lupa teaching The Nostalgia Critic to be lady-like is hilarious, as is The Nostlagia Critic getting Ma-Ti to find books about goat porn because he lies to Ma-Ti and says that another critic has a fetish for goats. I'd say that some of the jokes here were even funnier than in To Boldly Flee but in that one I laughed at most of the jokes, here. Some of them fall flat.So is this worth watching? If you want a little introduction to the To Boldly Flee plot then yes. Because as you may have read in one of my previous reviews for that, it just dives into the plot which is linked to the ending of this film. On it's own merits however it is funny and if you like a perfect amount of hilarious jokes while also seeing grown children in silly costumes larping for 2 hours then this movie is for you.

You know what's hilarious about Doug's anniversary flicks? Everything! The fact that the production quality and acting ends up surpassing some of the high budget films he reviews.I also find it funny that the same reviewers that accuse Doug for not being in the right mindset to review kids films also pick on his work that they're clearly not in the right mindset to see either.I think the film is a wonderful accomplishment. You see these (That Guy With The Glasses) characters make fun of other people's work weekly, and once a year they come together to make fun of themselves. It just doesn't get any better than that.When professional actors (such as Bruce Campbell) attempt self-parody, it looks silly and even sad. You can tell that they have exhausted themselves and are doing it almost out of desperation. When TGWTG team does it, you can tell they're having as much fun as the target audience.

The TGTW...TWGTG...Team Whatever guys seem to have enjoyed their little Kickassia stint and have come up with yet another...film? Internet movie? LARP video? I have no idea how to call this, except maybe a fanw**k vid.In Suburban Knights, Doug Walker reveals his love for playing dress-up as he and his minions embark on a quest to find a magical item (hint: it's the Powerglove, duh). The quest sadly requires the main cast to put ridiculous costumes on and go prancing around suburban back-yards and woods pretending to be a bunch of fantasy heroes. From then on comes a deluge of terrible acting, terrible jokes and terrible gimmicks of the same breed as those that plagued Kickassia. It comes as no surprise that Suburban Knights quickly begins to look like a clown car stuffed with TGTW's contributors regardless of their actual usefulness (or acting talent). Then again, what did I expect? They're reviewers, they're supposed to review stuff, not star in their own "movies" or whatever that thing's supposed to be. There is also nothing more depressing than seeing Benett "The Sage" "acting" out his part with the same skill as a rotting vegetable, all while he's wearing an ugly brown thing that looks like a Lion King costume got dynamite stuffed into it. What lurks in the cellar must stay in the cellar.
