The worst part of Doug’s review besides the long cringy skits is how he actively removes context from scenes to tear down films like cinema sins

The way Doug Walker reviews films, he even rips apart films he likes (or claims to like), like his review of the original "Jurassic Park", which he savages like no tomorrow despite claiming to be a fan. And insulted Jeff Goldblum multiple times.

I never watched any of the movies until this year .for me they not perfect but a lot of fun and enjoy binge watching all of them. Barbosa has to be my favorite character hands down.

14:14 I'm... pretty sure his point is that the character is written well enough that the audience cares about her.

You know, i feel like there are a lot of more things to criticize the NC than this video. But there's something inherently funny about you complaining about what people think is boring is subjective and going "not funny didn't laugh" for the rest of the video. Also, you really didn't know that the random black screens were so that the KZfaq ads didn't interrupt the video? I know Doug is incopetent in certain areas but even Red Letter Media does that.

12:35 The cursed pirates can feel things. They primarily feel pain. They can't die from the pain and the injuries they sustained, but they can still feel them, even if it's just briefly. As established by Barbossa, he, along with his crew, feels nothing. But he was mainly referring to positive feelings, like the wind on his face, the splash of the sea, or the warmth of a woman's flesh. Plus, a possible argument is based on a reactionary type of pain. That they can remember what pain feels like, as pain is easier to remember, as once you get hurt by something, you will remember the pain. But the feeling of pleasure only last so long.

I kept cracking up seeing the “Not Funny. Didn’t laugh” bit XD If there is one thing I would like to say, you should play around with it a lot more since it definitely wont be the last time we see it Also I could really watch you talk about pirates for ages

If you think that's bad, you won't believe the Red Letter Media Star Wars Prequel rants.

The first three Pirates movies are absolutely God tier, among my all time favorites. Jack Sparrow really does have the best character intro ever. No one else could've done him justice. NostalgiaCritic is just tripping balls. This video was infinitely funnier and of higher quality than his.

Thank you for defending Will’s character! I have heard from a few people how boring will and Elizabeth are and I whole heartedly disagree. I love Will and it’s fun to see this dorky character who is out of his element without being played over the top. Orlando bloom is very charming and has this down to earth energy, so when he’s thrown in these over the top scenarios I actually find it to be very hilarious and relatable. I feel like casting someone like Tom Holland it wouldn’t be the same kind of funny. Also they were building up Elizabeth’s character form the beginning from this damsel in distress to someone who took charge of the situation. These two need more love lol Also I loved At World’s End! I don’t care what anyone thinks- I love the dark turn this franchise took. With that said (and I’m sorry for the long essay), I do think you are being a little harsh on Doug. He has stated in many of his personal videos that he is only sharing his perspective and has encouraged people to watch these movies and make their own opinion. As much as I am a fan of NC, he has ripped apart some of my favourite films (aka moulin rouge). However, he has made some good analysis- he defended films that needed defending and criticized films that needed criticism. So I don’t think it’s very fair to call him a “moron” or get angry at him for having an opinion. Also as you mentioned, art is subjective, well so is humour. I don’t laugh at all his jokes and personally I do prefer his older content, but there were a couple moments I chuckled when you put “not funny”. I thought some of it was funny. You gotta remember NC is a character, and he is a KZfaqr like yourself who is trying to make a living. I do like this review and you make some solid points but it would be nice if you could tone down the anger a bit. 😊

While I think Barbossa's line "I feel cold" is fantastic and incredibly poignant (BTW great job explaining why the line works so well!), I can understand what Doug means by thinking the dialogue he thought he heard was better than what was actually said. When I was a child watching At World's End, when Will stabs Davy Jones in the chest, I thought Jones said "Missed" as in Will missed the mark of killing Jones so incredibly hard he wasn't even close. But I only found out a couple years ago that what Jones actually said was "Mister..." and then he proceeds to ask if Will forgot he was heartless. It kind of upsets me a little bit because as a kid, I thought the idea of Jones getting stabbed in the chest and then cheekily saying "Missed" just gave him another level of sass and felt very in-character for Jones. So I can understand where Doug is coming from in this situation, but I think the actual line Barbossa says before he dies works way better.

Just found out about all of the PotC content on your channel, and I am very excited, because I’ve been at a loss for what videos to watch regarding PotC lately, but now I have a bunch! Thanks, mate.

I thought it was obvious that Jack saying "It would never have worked between us, darling" to Elizabeth was a joke that stemmed from him having a "crush" on her because she's a pretty girl. He never seemed like someone who was ever interested in any actual romantic relationship, not even with her. So, it's weird for NC to count that as a "tease" when it doesn't seem like one.

this feels like a nostalgia critic review of a nostalgia critic video lol, nostalgia critic-ception

I used to really enjoy him and I was very much like him, then I grew up. I stopped watching him due to his annoying personality, then the Change the Channel controversy clinched it for me. I can’t wait to see the next two

Doug doesn't exactly have the best track record when it comes to creativity. Remember his 'The Wall' review/parody? 💀

11:17 I think he does the blackouts so KZfaq will trigger an ad.

I honestly think some people expect to much for some films and from what I seen of Doug he tends to always lead on the side of being "Against" the film which usually did lead to more views for him. He would write/show his review to try and make him look right while putting the film down sometimes to bring in the views.

So the one thing ill say in defense is during the seige where Doug takes time to bring up how all the pirates are character actors and jot just random extras and uses one as an example of how much personality is in them, showing a clip of what he was refering to because not everyone would underatand the reference. which are bother interesting facts to give to show how much extra effort went into the movie compared to what is usually done so its a good thing to stop and bring up.

19:46 This apparently got me thinking if they ever did a remake of Oliver, they would definitely get Geffory Rush to play Fagin. I can see that.

One of the funniest memories I have is laughing for an hour over his critiques on KZfaq over the sequels to the never ending story. The man 🤣 is funny.

I used to like Nostalgia Critic, but it just got boring.

I mean to play devils advocate here. Boring elements can make the film bad because a film is supposed to entertain. If someone finds something boring then to them it is a reflection on them seeing the film as bad in that part because it didn't entertain them.

This is not good way to attract your audience. Im just saying, you can be critical about something, but don't make it personal.

What do you think of his dark toons series?

I never loved the first movie. It’s nowhere near as great as part 2 and part 3. There’s a good amount of the fanbase that only cares about Jack sparrow and no one else. I am not one of those fans. 🙈

16:42 I think its because Doug always makes that faces whenever he tries to make a point whenever he reviews a film, even particularly in his review for The Simpsons Movie where he literally lets a shot of his reaction hold for a just couple of seconds when making a joke out of a scene.

I acutully like some of Doug's reviews (at least his out of character ones) and i think he is a decent guy

I actually went and googled “young Stellan Skarsgård”, in my opinion he does not look that much like Orlando Bloom

Will you also do his reviews of movie 4 and 5?

At World's End is my favorite movie. Ever. So know that when I say I wish Barbosa had stayed dead, I'm doing a hyperbole. "I feel cold" is such a beautifully tragic line and that scene is so perfect, I can't help but feel bringing him back lowkey ruined it

“Not funny didn’t laugh”. I couldn’t stop laughing at those moments 😂. I watched nostalgia critics videos and I disagreed with a number of his “critiques”

I can understand his criticisms on pirates 2 and 3 but I think he way to harsh on these two. I really think they're just fun movies. I agree that at World End drag on in some moments but it literally pay off in the end. 4 and fifth, no thank you. They should have end At World End in my opinions.

Hmm. feuding critics revival. "Don't listen to them, but to me cause their opinion isn't my opinion which should be your opinion and theirs isn't some fabricated cheap trick for views, just like mine, which is pure and honest."

The biggest problem with KZfaqrs like nostalgia critic and BigJackFilms is that there trying to copy @mst3k and @TheBrandonTenold. But nostalgic critic doesn’t have what those two have. Effort put into writing it and actually funny jokes.

Oooo good. I've wanted to hear someone righteously defending the Pirates of the Caribbean movies --- ALL OF THEM! I've heard people say that only the first one was good. And for me, if it wasn't for the lack of Barbosa, #2 would be my favorite, or might actually be my favorite of them.

12:05 I mean... he's just praising the movie for the things it does right. Isn't that what critics are supposed to do, especially in today's age when online critics try to veer away from being too negative?

4:19 I kinda like this music in fact this theme is from my childhood games

5:42- This is basically the same mindset I had in response to that stupid 'The Nostalgia Critic tie' joke in his Rover Dangerfield review. Yeah, because he's totally the first celebrity to ever wear a red tie. It's not like that was specifically based on the red tie Rodney Dangerfield wore for his standup. Even though that is just a dumb, silly little joke, it comes off as kind of arrogant.

24:00 - 24:31 Yeah, it's called Mulan (2020).

"There might be some strong language used in this video.... Me: I AM SO IN!

Great video! I agree with your points,but there are a few flaws in the video imo. First of all, I think you took it a bit too personally, nostalgia critic is mainly playing a "Daffy duck like character" who's focused on making jokes reather than actual critique. This does NOT mean he's immune to all criticism,but the problem is that some people take his reviews seriously regardless,be they fans or haters. You seem to be reather angered by his reviews and that can cause some problems, you're reather condescending and (i feel like I used this words a million times already) angry. Considering that you accused NC's reviews of spreading misinformation and you want to correct the mistakes he made in them acting like this isn't ideal as it gives people the impression that you're taking these too seriously, hating him just because he doesn't share the same opinion,or,if they see NC as a legitimate critic,they might find the video too condescending to see the well made points. There are also a few unnecessary parts. The "not funny didn't laugh" bit was done too much,imo. You've said quite a few times that you didn't find NC funny, that's perfectly fine,but saying that every time he makes a joke is really unnecessary, humour is subjective,so saying that you don't find him funny doesn't really add anything to the video and could've been cut out. As for a way to fix this, I'd recommend being a bit nicer and respectful (as hard as it may be) and not calling NC unfunny every time a joke is made. Sorry if this was a long comment btw 😅

Acually whats the issue with him saying he likes the pirates. Isnt it important too also explain good things when you critic a movie?

okay I'm just over 7 minutes in to this video does anyone else feels this guy is a huge hypocrite?

I admit I'm curious to know what he said about these movies 5.6.24

12:37 i just wanted to say here. Under the curse im pretty sure they can feel pain still becuase barbosa does react to it if i remember right. I dont think they would feel it for very long. I mean through out the whole movie barbosas men get hurt and knocked out so i think the fire bit is justified

I think people seem to forget that Nostalgia Critic is a character that Doug puts on. Doug is nothing like Nostalgia Critic.

he should rename himself into NostalgiaOPINION😂

I'm still ashamed I took his word as gospel for so many years, haven't been a fan since 2020

Even after I unsubscribed to his channel after his Fallen Kingdom review, I realized how Channel Awesome became more greedier by the time he “reviews” popular films even when they’re released currently, such as Puss in Boots: The Last Wish.

Yeah, don't forget the bat credit card.

Can you do pirates 4 please?

This is why people prefer the Angry Video game nerd instead. Nostalgic Critic used to be funny but not anymore. His recent videos are very stale.

1:59 - 3:53 Gonna be saving this. As a storyteller I'll take what I can get.

Them holding the boat down isn’t a flaw within the film. It’s a fantastical adventure that doesn’t require a strict adherence to real life physics.

While i do agree with your disdain for the 4th and 5th film i enjoyed them to an extent, while 5 felt like a remaster of the first one but 4 was interesting to me and it had the most brutal on screen death of probably any disney movie, but like i said i agree with your disdain.

I would not be surprised if you made a response to nostalgia critic’s so called review of Hulk 2003.

If the nostalgia critic can’t get something’s right about a popular movie like pirates of the Caribbean or lord of the rings then the fandoms will go after him

12:48 for me personally my head cannon is that it’s not the fact they can’t feel anything but more the fact they can’t change the way they feel Like barbosa said, he feels hungry but can’t change it, he feels thirsty but can’t change it, I think this was the point of the curse to make them suffer by making them only feel the worst things unable to change it So when they get hit or burned they still feel pain because the curse wants them to suffer, and even when barbosa gets stabbed I think he didn’t react because he was just so use to the pain that it no longer effected him But that’s just my theory on it

I love your videos and Doug’s… Parlay? Seriously though, I feel like he’s been pretty harsh on these films. Most of the time I enjoy his takes, and I can agree to disagree. The Pirates films are my Star Wars, and honestly they’re much more enjoyable than Star Wars 😅. The fifth movie I feel like misunderstands the characters, especially after everything Jack and Barbosa had gone through, and they remove so much of the mystique of Jack’s character and turn Barbosa into “Argh, Me Treasure!” But 1-4 are great. I watch On Stranger Tides more than the original trilogy even, it’s a nice self sufficient adventure with incredible set pieces and character work.

Good thing I stopped watching Doug years ago.

[*]Ok, I meant to point this out MUCH sooner, also hi again, but what he meant was, for him, there was TOO MUCH exposition. Is he right? Well, that's subjective. But how he worded it, and edited it was awful. So, it's his opinion, he just worded it horrifically. But, everything else is on point, good job once more![*]

I always seen him as a content creator not a critic, even though he's influencial

why did they lose their shit here 14:03 when they can do this 26:44

3:52

20:40 ... ... ... It was a pun! I guess if he said: "She discovers the crew is working a graveyard shift", you would've corrected him about them being pirates and therefore no stipulated shifts of work?

its an orlando bloom throw him back (ngl that was funny)

I've been a fan since 2013, Yes he helped create the Movie Hate KZfaq Trend. I watch him with a pinch of objective salt, I rarely agree with him, and sometimes he makes a follow up review where he expresses his actual views on a film, he does try to distinguish the difference between Doug Walker and Doug The Nostalgia Critic. . He has openly admitted that his Nostalgia Critic Reviews are often full of hyperbole and opinions are over inflated and intended to fit the narrative of The Nostalgia Critic. Basically he exaggerates his criticisms and is nitpicky to be "comedic". . I definitely disagree with his reviews of the first three POTC films. I'm with the minority opinion of having At Worlds End as my favorite Pirate's film. . I love mythology and lore, I love it when a film series goes dark and attempts to grow the franchise. I can't believe just how dark and violent A.W.E. is, it is the closest that Disney (Under the Brand) has ever gotten towards an R-Rated film. . Disney has never made anything that is so graphic in its violence, themes and overall design of the film. From the dirt and grime on the Pirates to the awesome, impressive and gooey effects and designs for the crew of The Flying Dutchman and Davey Jones, the aesthetics of the film are beautiful in all of its GORE Verbinski madness. . The sequels are closely approaching their 20th anniversaries and every frame of the films hold up so well, they could be released today. Davey Jones's design alone is comparable to any CGI character in any movie that's been released in the past decade. Well maybe not against Avatar 2, but he looks as good as Thanos, Caesar in the Planet of the Apes Trilogy, and miles better than She-Hulk, Thanos's henchmen or Darkseid and Steppenwolf (Josstice League or Znyder Cut). . Stranger Tides and Dead Men Tell No Tales (to a lesser extent) lost their artistic creativity that Gore brought to the franchise. They at least tired to bring back creative effects for the latter film, but the original trilogy feels more tangible, substantial and consistent. . I like Doug and The Nostalgia Critic for who they are, understanding that he's reaching for criticisms from a perspective of making jokes. But I much more enjoy the episodes where he just talks about something that he likes and appreciates, i feel like those episodes are more honest and authentic, but because of the algorithm, his positive review episodes get less engagement.

This is like Wednesday witnessing Enid talking about anything related to instagram

i get him but the chikago war thing was a little bite wierd

this video feels like everything wrong with cinema sins from theb3rdman

I am very indifferent to Doug and his work. On one hand there are many things that he has said in the past about films that are true and make a whole lot of sense, and back in his hay day I used to really like his work. But after like 2019 I started to really hate him. I just reached 18 at the time and I really started to resent a lot of the ignorant and idiotic things he said about a lot of films I hold dear. Like sometimes he would state things that were flat-out wrong if you pay attention for like five seconds or could be debunked by using the little device in your head called your brain. I hold some sort of nostalgic feeling for his work because I watched it while growing up but at the same time, his work has gone from being funny and sometimes providing good criticism to just boring, unfunny, and VERY poorly researched. Doug says he thinks a critic should be entertaining and funny and offer an interesting point of view. But Doug ONLY ever goes for being funny and he fails at that. Every now and then he will bring up a good point but they are very few and far between. I am very indifferent about his work now because I hold some enjoyment when I watch his reviews but at the same time all these problems start arising whenever he mentions something that is flat-out wrong. It is so infuriating when he does things like that. These pirates of the Caribbean videos that I watched were fine, at the absolute most and HORRIBLE at the absolute worst. Some things he says are true, like Barbosa having a serious hatred towards Jack and some other certain things but damn this video did piss me off when I watched it for the first time. It really annoyed me. I think after these reviews I am done watching new videos by him. I think I will either stop watching his videos altogether or just watch old videos of him. Oh and sorry I barely talked about your video itself XD. I guess I just had a lot of irritation to get off my chance and this was a good way to get it out there. This video you made is very good and very truthful. More truthful than any of Doug's videos anyway. Also, it is funny to me that you are far more truthful than Doug despite LITERALLY HAVING LESS SUBSCRIBERS. Very odd to say the least. Anyway, good video and I can't wait for part 2. :) Also sorry long as shit comment. :)

Dead man's chest is the best of the series

I agree that the first 3 were the best and the last 2 weren't as good but I still have so much love for every single one of them and i appreciate the awesome defense against the nostalgia critic

18:40 19:15 19:35 19:48 20:16 20:57 23:14 26:01 29:19

Something that I've never understood is why critics say the fourth and fifth films are convoluted. Sure, Dead Man's Chest and At World's End were a bit layered, but how can those be convoluted when they got more simple? I'm beginning to think they didn't even try to focus and just blame the movies for it. That would be an explanation for Doug's lack of understanding of the whole franchise.

Anime fans: (sweating buckets) 2:55

Pirates 3 is Mt favorite

Why does Nostalgia Critic’s voice occasionally go very high pitched? Do his balls go back in?

Nice video man! Good job.

If you don't like Nostalgia Critic, why are you taking about him?

Your not wrong in saying will is written as a newbie, guffball with noble intensions, because how i kind of see it now, he kind of represent two idears that 1. He is new and way out of water in the pirate world in the story alone. And 2, he also at least to me, represent us viewers in a way that we also much like will dont know the world of pirates, their norms or rules or how they act. So yeah will could be eyecandy if you see the movie as an older aurdiens or dont care much for the story, okay. But to me who saw it when i still was a kid it was throu him you get the introduktion to this pirateworld i myself fell in love with and throu will you go on this journey to learn more about the pirateworld. So you could say these films started my pirate phase that i havent put down to this day.

Wow........someone has issues..........

although if i'm being honest you may not agree with me but I kinda enjoyed on stranger tides and dead men tell no tales not as much as he first three but they were enjoyable none the less

Nostalgia critic needs to learn there fans and please you may not watch his review on sailor moon in some parts of the review he gets creepy

So by this logic of consistency, not contradicting itself, having good character motivations and progression of said characters, and no plot holes, by this very logic: Batman & Robin is a good movie.

the trilogy are great, the last two are kinda bad

This movie was awesome 😊

…so what game were ya playing?

Don't take NC too seriously. He can be funny sometimes.

I don’t mean to be rude, and I appreciate the criticism of his work, but I’ll admit the not funny didn’t laugh kinda got a tad played out by time three

did bro just say a film being boring doesnt make it bad?

"will is boring" me:to quote a mexican doom youtuber "look everyone is entitled to have their own opinions... EVEN THO YOU ARE FUCKING WRONG"

18:48 - 19:03 Uh, no offense to Stellan Skarsgard, but no, *no they didn't.* Even I didn't see a similarity in facial features when I first saw Dead Man's Chest. Looking back, I think I'd much prefer someone like Ciaran Hinds in the role of Bootstrap Bill. He and Orlando at least have the similar kind of eyebrows and nose structure.

good video is it ok if I ask you a question?

Ok, so I certanly don't always agree with all of Doug's takes, but your cristicism of his Pirates review feels less like you're giving constructive cristicism and more like he murdered your parents.

I agree dead man's chest is great, but the third one grinds to a halt in the second half.

The subtitle is kind of misleading a bit since its not actually the pearl that's cursed, it's the gold.

Hey Doug walker ten years ago just called back when you were funny
