Dunno if there's one for either of them on here but oh well, why not? Talk about what they're going to be doing, what videos and reviews they have made, and stuff they've done in the past.

Nostalgia Critic: Used to like him, but his newer reviews are annoying and his cutaway gags are too long and not funny. Gotten over him in late December of 2013.

Jontron: I find him a bit boring... I rather prefer PeanutButterGamer.

I assume this is one of his newer videos but I really liked this one in particular. He explained parody so well. I really need to see Young Frankenstein at some point seeing as how Mel Brooks directed the film.

I agree with you there. Also, is it weird that the Nostalgia Critic nowadays suffers from the same problems as Family Guy does today?

SomeOrdinaryGamers>Jontron, Egoraptor, Pewdiepie, etc, etc.

I'll admit, I kind of got over The Nostalgia Critic, too. Todd in the Shadows and Oancitizen (Brows Held High) have taken his place as my favorite reviewer on That Guy With The Glasses.

I have no clue who Todd in the Shadows is in all honesty and I've never heard of the second guy before.

I love Jon tron and his strange sense of humour.
Now The Nostalgia critic I used to love but ever since he came back in 2012 he's just kinda sucked. I really dislike the new family guy esqu cutaways, and the bad acting is even more apparent with these 2 new actors Malcolm and Tamara (was Rachael) nothing is funny at all. But my main complaint with his newer stuff is how he seems to be trying to act smarter like a real critic, which is something he can't really do well since all he really does is point out the obvious, make cliche observations or completely miss the point in some things. Now in the older episodes he had a good amount of critique and humor,the main focus being the humor while the criticizing is somewhat taking a backseat and was basic yet serviceable. Now that the humor sucks and his bad critic in him is taking the scene. Also now in a lot of the episodes he ends them with some bad speech about how even though the movie is bad you can't really blame it or he gets why some people like it or some other lame thing where as In the old show he would just make some really funny joke at the expense of the bad film, not try and rationalize some dumb thing, it feels like he's trying to be too nice. Also it really feels like he's pandering to his annoying fan base with the refrences to dumb ::dolphin noise:: like shipping and other internet memes, it really dates the humor in the new show. And don't get me started on the website and the terrible forum, users and mods that they have.
[now ending rant]

But you know who is still great at tgwtg? Brad jones aka the cinema snob, he's so funny. I love the dry witty snob satire and the really obscure old refrences.

Today I watched Nostalgia Critic's top 11 best South Park episodes and I think most of his choices are really great. Definetly not Britney's New Look though. He made a lot of great points abiout these episodes. Yeah, I liked it, even though It's on his 2012-present era. Man, he is getting really disliked lately.
